Chapter 389

On the Qingjiang River, Jiangling ferry, a large number of ships gather together.

Most of the boatmans went ashore and gathered on the shore in twos and threes, waiting for the next instructions of the Qi army.

After the delivery of weapons, grain and grass, Chen Chengli and these people have been forbidden to go home again. They have been waiting here for three days.

Although he didn't send food to his home for three days, Chen Chengcheng was not worried at all. With the big deals led by the two dog brothers, a group of bitter boatman brothers were starving at home, but there was no problem holding on for ten days and a half months.

Several people gathered around two dogs, listening to two dogs boasting and farting, and having fun.

"When will our days come to an end?"

Song Yi of jiangdun village suddenly shouted.

When they heard the speech, they were silent.

My old life was under the control of Qi people. My family was not good or bad. Although I couldn't die, I couldn't eat a few full meals all year round.

When the Han Army captured Jiangling and occupied the North Bank of the Qingjiang River, everyone's life was better.

In the past, most of the fish were taken away by the Qi army. After the Han army came, they would buy fish with silver and copper. Once they came and went, they had more money in their hands and more things to buy at home.

Although the same is not enough to eat, but the days of starvation are less. Since last year, if you don't taboo eating and are willing to eat potatoes and sweet potatoes, you can eat enough all year round by fishing.

If you live under the rule of the Qi people, you won't be able to stand it.

Chen honestly said, "they are all the Qi people killed by heaven. If they don't come, our life will be good. When they come, we can't even eat."

"Yes, it's Qi people."

A group of people in Song Yi began to talk.

The two dogs stretched out their hands and stopped the crowd.

A moment later, several Qi soldiers obviously drank wine and passed by laughing. One Qi soldier glanced at Dong Wei sitting outside and came up with a foot.

"My mother, what are you looking at? Believe it or not, I'll dig your eyes now."

Dong Wei held his head and dared not speak. He let several Qi soldiers fight to death.

The two dogs rushed up, got a few feet, pulled Dong Wei out, conveniently carried the oars next to them, and pointed to several Qi troops.

"If you dare to hit people again, we'll see Zhenzhang where the English people are."

Several Qi soldiers looked at the boatman who surrounded them. Seeing that there were many people on the other side, they scolded and walked away with shoulder to shoulder.

Dong Wei held two dogs by the arm and looked grateful: "two dogs, don't say anything. You can speak where you can use your brother in the future. You saved my life."

Song Yi also said: "Lao Dong, it's all right? Two dogs stand up for justice. Everyone knows that if it weren't for two dogs, everyone would have starved to death."

Chen Chengli also added: "it's not a drop. No two dog brothers brought our food. We have to die half now."

The second dog's eyes twinkled with cold light: "do you want to have a good life?"

good days?

Everyone looked at the two dogs with a look of hope. Of course, everyone wanted to live a good life, but there was no way.

The two dogs continued, "what was our life before the Qi people came back? What was your life after the Qi people came?"

"If you want to feel better, you still have to invite the Han people back."

The second dog said, noticing that there was some emotion on everyone's faces, so he continued to drum up his strength.

"I've heard that the sweet potatoes of the Han people have a bumper harvest this year. The sweet potatoes are worthless. The Han Army has now opened the supply of sweet potatoes. Those sergeants have round stomachs. Even the military servants and civilian men have round stomachs."

"Do you know Zhao Shouyi from Wuli Village? He was a civilian husband in the Han army. I secretly went to Wuli Village the night before yesterday to see my friend. I didn't want to see Zhao Shouyi."

"Shit, Zhao Shouyi's grandson is fat and looks like the landlord's old wealth. I asked him if I could be a civilian husband for the Han army. Guess what Zhao Shouyi said?"

Chen Chengzhen asked a group of people with curiosity.

"How can it be pregnant?"

"If I say, the Han army must be good. I'm afraid it can't beat the British."

The two dogs stopped the excitement and continued talking.

"What kind of civilian husband should we be? If we are willing to give Xiang Wei a way to guide him, pass on information and ensure that his life is better than that of Lao Zhao, why should we be a bitter civilian husband in the camp."

The boatmans were thoughtful. After all, they were used to being obedient to the people. Now they suddenly had to work for the Han army. They were a little timid.

The second dog saw that everyone hesitated and couldn't help talking.

"As you can see, we embezzled a little more food. Later, there was no food on board these times. After that..."

As soon as the two dogs said, everyone remembered. It seemed like this. In the last few ships, everyone didn't deliver food.

"Done"

Chen honestly thinks about the old woman who was killed by the officials and the guards in Chen San's family. Chen San, who died in vain on the river, is full of grievances. Qi Jun is a bastard, and the British special army is not a good man.

It's 180 times better to let the Han army rule than the Qi people.

"I did it too. This life was given by the two dog brothers. What he said must be good."

Dong Wei also said, his dark face full of excitement.

Song Yi also said, "although the two dog brothers saved my life, I still have my family. I can't let my family starve to death. I did it for the sake of my family and those sweet potatoes that can eat enough."

With the example of Chen Chengzhen and Song Yi, the boatman agreed.

The two dogs flashed a smile on their faces and lowered their voice.

"Well, let's do nothing else these days. Let's act together tonight and get some sweet potatoes back to fill my mother's stomach."

That night, Chen Chengzhen and his boatman, led by Er Gou, arrived at Wuli Village on the north bank and received several people and several large bags of sweet potatoes on the bank.

"One person is divided into twenty. These are only the first batch."

In the dark night, two dogs shared sweet potatoes and told everyone.

All the boatmans were excited. Although it was against the current on the return trip, the speed was not much slower.

Under the leadership of Ergou, Chen Chengzhen, a group of boatman, drove a boat to transport the personnel and intelligence of Dingxiang guard back and forth on the Qingjiang River, supporting the intelligence line of the Han state.

……

On the North Bank of the Qingjiang River, the battalion of the Qi coalition army retreated repeatedly and finally reached the edge of the Qingjiang River.

Over the past few days, Su Yun has managed to control the birds, repeatedly gaining power, and destroyed the only few birds left by the British. The British dare not go to war without the protection of birds. They have been defeated and retreated, and finally reached the point where they can't retreat.

In the big tent, Lorraine walked back and forth angrily: "Sir, we can't retreat any more, sir. Even if Qingjiang is behind us, even if it's risking the birds of the Tibetans, we'll fight."

Viscount William finished reading the letter in his hand and suddenly smiled.

"Don't worry, count Lorraine. The new bird soldiers will cross the river tomorrow. The day of our decisive battle is not far away."

At the same time, Chen Chengzhen and Ergou also saw the birds falling suddenly in the Qi army camp.
