"East, didn't you say going to Nansha?"
Among the "crocodiles" who set off from Baisha Village in the early morning, some of the squad leaders thought it was very strange that they had received an order from Li Xie to go to "Nansha" to negotiate with the people there and buy some women and teenagers to return.The whole Baisha Village, inside and outside the village, has heard of such a thing.It's just that when Shadong led the team away, the boat turned sharply to the east, entered the northeast of Zepi, and then found a hidden waterway, through the layers of reeds, and went north to the Yangtze River.Obviously, this is not the way to Nansha."
It's a covert operation!"
Sha Dong didn't explain, and showed the stone axe that Li Xie gave him.This stone axe is very famous, because Li Xie used this axe to cut out a piece of the sky in the Yin Township.Seeing the stone axe is like seeing the first Li!"
Shou Li fake me Shi Yue, you don't need to say much!"
Sha Dong, who has always been an honest person, is extremely cold and serious.Several squad leaders immediately became honest and bowed their heads and didn't dare.Because in the daily training, Li Xie has long had a record of punishment, whoever holds this stone axe can be the same as Li Xie and punish those "crocodiles" who do not train well according to the rules.This stone axe, for all the squad leaders, has a deep sense of awe.When the boat reached the river, the tide was very good, and the wind and waves were not strong, and the boat immediately spread its sails, and the "crocodiles" were side by side, sliding the oars quickly."
Hey!""
Hey!"
The neat number gradually remembered that the speed of the pilot ship was very fast, and the small boats that followed one after another were not loaded with many supplies, and it was easy to keep up with the big ship.The sky was slightly bright, I looked at the starry sky, the Beidou was hanging upside down, the visibility was extremely high, and the lighthouse on the other side of the river was built three months ago.And according to Li Jie's regulations, a fire will be lit on the high platform at night.The lighthouse is very crude, purely a scaffolding of a mixed structure of bamboo and wood, and may not be able to withstand the power of nature on a windy day.But there is no doubt that Li Jie's purpose is not to fight against nature."
Light."
Halfway through the boat, I finally saw the faint fire on the other side of the river, which was not obvious when the eastern sky was white, but it was still very special and distinct for the people of the "sand field"."
It's Yangkou Lighthouse!"
The word tower was also created by Li Jie.Even if the "crocodile" says the word "lighthouse" to someone, no one else can understand what they are saying."
It's time to get to the big place!"
Sha Dong shouted and blew a whistle, and the boat following behind immediately responded, shouting on the river, the sound seemed to be completely unable to spread, only the sharp whistle whistle can be heard clearly.At this time, all the squad leaders knew that this time, they should take on a big task.The "crocodiles" are not nervous, and before they become "crocodiles", they are the "Baisha" people who have the courage to fight privately.After less than a year of complex tempering, the label of courage to fight privately has long been removed.The courage of the "crocodile" is not the courage of the puppet.Opening the leather backpack, Sha Dong quickly recorded the itinerary and time, and a fine rustling sound came from a special bamboo tube in the cabin.This is a special hourglass, and every time it is leaked, the fine sound of sand in the bamboo tube disappears, and Shadong will carve a knife on the domino.Therefore, an hourglass working time is called a "moment"."
Shore for a moment of rest, and then head to Donglu City.""
Yes!"
Donglu City is the market in the northeast, and nearby settlements and villages will trade here.Although he said that he was going to Donglu City, Shadong knew very well that this time there would be a little deviation and it would be further north.The waterway to Donglu City is not very good, and at this moment, in the cabin, in addition to some supplies and tools, there are wheelbarrows that can be assembled.After a month of training, "Crocodile" and "White Sand Yongfu" can basically master the skills of operating a wheelbarrow.And each wheelbarrow can be loaded with at least one stone.When sailing is very unfavorable, it is when they have to rely on wheelbarrows and keep exploring the way forward.This time I went north, and there was not a single big animal.Now the cattle, sheep, horses and donkeys in Yin Township are very precious, after the autumn harvest, there is still a stubble ploughing, there are no cattle, horses and donkeys, relying on manpower alone, the area of land reclamation is really limited.In fact, after Li Xie became the commander of Yinxiang, he had already purchased a large number of seeds from Chu and Yue.During this period, although he mainly planted beans, he also planted a little wheat.Wheat seeds were stolen from the north by the Chu State when they fought with people, and now in the eastern border of the Chu State, as long as it is not very good arable land, all the wheat is planted, which can not only be eaten by people, but also by livestock.Although millet is also grown, most of them are in the north of the Chu State, and as for the Chu State in the area for Yangyue, it is to grow "tribute rice", that is, a type of rice.At this time, in Shadong's team, the main ones were beans and wheat, all of which were fried.Beans can not be eaten more, mainly in case of emergency, if it goes well, you can replenish livestock in Donglu City, or capture elk, beans are a good material.The ration of the "crocodile" is mainly couscous flour mixed with minced meat, with salt and diced meat, as well as a large amount of oil, which is very easy to preserve through lotus leaves and bamboo tubes.Long-distance exercise is very physically demanding, and without oil and water, it is impossible to bear the great physical exertion.Click.The hourglass was turned over again, and the sound of fine sand leaking was clear on the big hill by the river, and the "crocodiles" were all bowing their heads and silent, honestly replenishing fresh water and food.Although there will be some hesitation about the secret mission this time, when they think of their previous life and the living state that Li Xie has brought to them after paying sweat and blood now, this hesitation will disappear in an instant."
After returning to Baisha on this trip, Shou Li will have a heavy reward."
took out the food from the bamboo tube, and before he was ready to eat it, Shadong sat cross-legged on the big mound, straightened his upper body and said.The sound of eating was sluggish, and for a moment, the sound of chewing food became more crisp and crisp.Although Shou Li is extremely vicious in beating people, he has one thing, "crocodiles" are all confessed, that is, fairness.Just like the fair scales in the Baisha market, the punishment of Shouli is not ambiguous, and the reward is not delayed.When it comes to twenty lashes, it is twenty lashes, and it will not be nineteen lashes nor twenty-one lashes.It is said that the reward of grain is twenty stones, which is twenty stones, and it will not be less than one bucket of you, nor one more of you.But there is always a reward of great importance, such as a heavy reward, there is a benchmark.The sand melons in the breeding center have been rewarded, they have their own houses and yards, and they also get double salaries, and they don't have to go to work to participate in collective labor.The "crocodiles" are all full-time units and do not have to go to work, but when they are still "Baisha Yongfu", they also have to participate in collective labor.Exemption from military service is a very important reward.But exemption is not a heavy reward, and sand melons are the heavy reward in the minds of the "crocodiles".It's time to divide the room.The "crocodiles" who were eating silently thought happily in their hearts.
