Chapter 3109 The feeling of advancing and retreating

At this time, the sunset was about to set, as if I felt that I had only had the last little time left, so I concentrated all the light and heat at this time.

The fiery red sunset spread like flames across the entire river.

When Nanyan got off the carriage, his eyes were immediately stabbed by the redness of the river and almost couldn't open it.

She raised her hand to block her eyes, waited for a while to get used to the dazzling sunset, and then slowly put down her hand. In addition to Man Jianghong, there were also tall water army camps on the shore. Several huge ships were docked on the shore, locked together with thick iron chains as a trestle. From this perspective, let alone people, even horses could board the ship and walk as fast as flying.

This look is a bit like I saw in Xingluo Lake before.

Obviously, it was also built by Li Chen and Fang Zhen and others after coming over and guiding the people here.

It seems that in addition to burning, killing and looting in Jinling City, these people have done something real for Zhu Chengjin.

Thinking of this, Nanyan sneered.

At this time, the dragonfly also got off the carriage.

The sun was so dazzling, but she just squinted her eyes. The fire-like light seemed to melt the ice deep in her pupils.

Nan Yan only looked at her and said nothing more. He looked around. There were not many people on the dock, but she also understood that most of Zhu Chengjin's men had already been sent here, looking at the big and small ships on the river. There were people standing on it. The ones that left Xingluo Lake were naturally his men.

And a few people are left behind in the city.

At this time, everyone got off the bus and got off the horse.

Today, there was no wind on the river surface, but the sun was about to set, and there was still a little coolness in the heavy water vapor by the river. Ge Long immediately took a cloak and put it on Zhu Chengjin. He slowly walked to the embankment and looked at the boats of all sizes on the river surface, and his eyes seemed to be filled with the hot temperature of the setting sun.

He said, "Now, you can board the ship."

At this time, a person next to him stepped forward and said, "Young Master, the people on Xingluo Lake say it's not OK."

"No? Why?"

"I said I had to wait for the sun to set."

"It's all dark, what else can I fight?"

Before the man could answer the conversation, an old but cold voice had already sounded next to him: "I have to wait for the darkness to fight!"

Nanyan turned around and saw that it was the elder Li Chen who came out of Xingluo Lake.

When Zhu Chengjin saw him, he narrowed his eyes: "What does it mean?"

Behind Li Chen was another elder of Xingluo Lake. The two of them were obviously familiar with water wars and had been through a long battle. They looked down on the "outsiders" like Zhu Chengjin, but due to the cooperation between the two sides, and Zhu Chengjin had just opened Jinling City to rob them for two days. These people had already robbed them, and they were very satisfied. So they said patiently: "Look at this weather, when the sun sets, fog will appear on the river."

“Mist?”

"Not bad. After darkness and the fog on the river are the easiest to cross the river and land."

“…”

"The people in Jiangbei have known that we are preparing for a long time, so they will definitely do their best to stop us tonight. However, when it gets dark, they can't stop these dozens or hundreds of ships even if they want to."

Zhu Chengjin heard this and nodded gently: "It's reasonable."

Li Chen said: "So, please ask the young master and this person--"

As he said that, he looked at Nanyan again and sneered deliberately: "Imperial Concubine, please stay on the shore first and see the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River. Because it may be that after landing, it will be difficult for you to see such a scenery."

When the people around heard this, they burst into laughter.

Amid the laughter of these people, Nan Yan also smiled: "Look at me, too."

A few people immediately came back to the scene and knew that what she said was to mock them, but at this time, they were too lazy to argue with her, a woman, so everyone sat by the river, watching the setting sun sink into the river bit by bit, and in the end, only a faint light was left in the distance.

As the sky darkened, a cold feeling suddenly came.

And as Li Chen and the others said, thick fog quickly rose on the river, and the sun set, and the surroundings immediately became dark. Soon, there was almost no farther shot on the river.

At this time, Li Chen said: "We can board the ship."

So, everyone stepped on a wide wooden board from the embankment and boarded the big ship directly on the shore. Several big ships were chained together as a trestle. When they boarded the ship, they could see the navy troops still practicing here. When they saw them on board, they retreated to both sides.

As we walked to the deeper we were in the boat, the river was slightly undulating, and the hull was shaking up and down.

Just as they were about to board another ship, a long hoarse sound came from afar, and Nan Yan couldn't help but look back.

This sound is—?

Before she could react, the dragonfly beside her immediately said, "It's the city gate that is closed."

Nanyan looked at her.

Her face looked paler in the dark light, like a piece of ice, with a cold feeling, and then repeated faintly: "The gates of Jinling were closed at this time at the third hour of Xu."

“…”

Nanyan didn't say anything.

Although she had lived in Jinling City before, it was all the time when she was a child. Later, she was sent to the palace even more. Over the years, she only knew the time when the palace gate was closed, but she forgot the time when the city gate was closed. Even this sound was a little unfamiliar because she had left Jinling for too long.

It turned out to be the sound of the city gate closing.

For some reason, I looked at the darkness of the river in front of me, and the mist was misty and I couldn't see anything clearly. The twilight behind me was already dark, and the city gates in the distance were closed.

It gives people a feeling of being in trouble.

What's more, the hoarse crows sounded from time to time in the sky, which added a bit of solemnity to this moment.

At this time, Zhu Chengjin had already boarded the big ship, looked back at Nan Yan standing there in a daze, and said coldly: "Why not hurry?"

Nanyan immediately boarded the ship.

The ship is very big, and although there are many ship workers and soldiers on it, since Zhu Chengjin has already arrived, the ship is obviously not used for combat. After Nan Yan boarded the ship, he walked back along the side of the ship and saw several small boats following the stern of the ship. Judging from the shape of the ship, it should be a ship from Xingluo Lake.
