"It's really Sun Lei! Send the signal quickly!"
When Song Jiang saw this change, instead of panicking, he looked ecstatic.
The soldier beside him took a bamboo tube and lit it. With a bang, the fireworks in the bamboo tube flew into the air and exploded into brilliant colorful fireworks.
"A cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops coming to meet you?"
Sun Lei looked at the exploding fireworks and twitched the corner of his mouth. Song Jiang has become a lot smarter over so long. The fireworks exploded in the dark night and could be seen for more than ten miles.
"Brother, we have to get out of here quickly!"
Wu Song's face was ashen. The fireworks would attract the surrounding troops, and it would be difficult for them to escape.
"Sun Lei, don't even think about escaping this time!"
Song Jiang looked at Sun Lei and shouted, Huazhou is the gateway to the north of Tokyo, with tens of thousands of troops stationed here.
"Song Jiang, grandpa will cut you into pieces!"
Before Sun Lei could speak, Liu Tang gritted his teeth and roared.
Song Jiang saw Liu Tang on the boat, and saw that Liu Tang's face was ferocious, like an evil ghost. His heart moved, and he suddenly understood something, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Chao Gai is dead!"
Song Jiang laughed in his heart, but he pretended to be heartbroken on his face.
"Sun Lei, if you kill King Chao Tian, we, Song Jiang, will fight until death!"
Song Jiang pointed at Sun Lei and roared. He wanted to put all the blame on Sun Lei. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Chao Gai had already received the imperial edict and was an official of the imperial court, while Sun Lei was the biggest rebel and official thief in the world. If there is no conflict, it is reasonable for Sun Lei to kill Chao Gai.
"Song Jiang, you hypocrite!"
Xiao Rang and others were also furious. Song Jiang's confusion of right and wrong really subverted their three views.
"kill!"
Song Jiang didn't care what the people on the other side shouted, as long as he killed those people, Chao Gai's death would be firmly pinned on Sun Lei, and he, Song Jiang, was a loyal man who avenged his brothers.
"kill!"
Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng commanded the army to attack the ships.
"Just you?"
Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, and Sun An jumped onto the river bank with weapons in hand. Hua Rong opened his bow and fired his arrows. The soldiers who had just gathered were killed again.
Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng looked gloomy. Although there were few people around Sun Lei, everyone was extremely difficult to deal with. There was really nothing they could do in a short time.
"Attack that ship, reinforcements will be here soon!"
Song Jiang also saw that the war was not going well, but he did not panic at all. This was Huazhou, not Liangshanbo.
"Brother, what should we do?"
Li Yan was anxious when he saw the enemy blocking the way of the canal. Even he could see Song Jiang's purpose, which was to stop them here.
"Don't rush!"
Sun Lei smiled and said.
"Does my brother have a back-up plan?"
Mi Sheng looked at Sun Lei and asked.
"Didn't you notice that Mr. Xiao and Mr. Wen are gone?"
Sun Lei said with a smile. Although he was conceited, he was not so arrogant that a dozen people could control the world. Xiao Jiasui and Wen Huanzhang had already gone straight back to Liangshanbo along the Bianhe River to move their troops.
The officers and soldiers were killed for several times, but they no longer dared to step forward. Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo stepped forward to stop them, but how could they deal with Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, and Sun An? As soon as they fought, they were beaten back by four people.
"Song Jiang, you killed King Chao Tian, do you think you can hide it? From now on, there will be no place for you in this world!"
Sun Lei looked at Song Jiang and shouted loudly, if he hadn't appeared, Chao Gai would have died in vain. Song Jiang's little tricks to deceive ordinary people are okay, but anyone with a discerning eye can see through them at a glance.
Song Jiang's face was extremely ugly. Sun Lei's words completely cut off his path to the world. Sun Lei had won two hero conferences and was recognized as the leader of the martial arts world. Sun Lei said that the world could not accommodate him, but there really was no place for him in the world. .
"Sun Lei, do you think you can run away today?"
Song Jiang looked at Sun Lei coldly, he would kill Sun Lei today. The light of the torch in the distance was getting closer and closer, and reinforcements were about to arrive.
"Walk!"
Sun Lei waved his hand and the ship continued to sail towards the Yellow River. Song Jiang's soldiers and horses were blocked on the shore and could not get closer.
"Brother, I'm going to kill that Song Jiang to avenge King Chao Tian!"
Liu Tang, with red eyes and a knife, was about to get off the boat to kill Song Jiang.
"I'm afraid you are no match for Song Jiang in your current situation, right?"
Sun Lei shook his head. Liu Tang was seriously injured. There were more than a dozen stab wounds on his body. Although it was not fatal, he lost too much blood when he fell into the water. At this time, his combat strength was very low. If he hadn't been strong, he might be now. I can't even stand still.
"I will risk my life to kill the ungrateful villain!"
Liu Tang gritted his teeth and said, when Song Jiang first entered the world and had no place to live, it was Chao Gai who accepted Song Jiang. However, he did not expect that Song Jiang, a white-eyed wolf, would step by step undermine Chao Gai, and now he would use tricks to kill Chao Gai.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to do it today!"
Sun Lei looked at the firelight gathering around him and shook his head and said, We are outnumbered and we cannot stay here for long.
The water channel was close to the entrance of the Yellow River and became wider in an instant. Lin Chong and others jumped on the boat and quickly headed towards the Yellow River.
"Sun Lei, you can't leave!"
Song Jiang burst out laughing. In the direction of Huazhou, a large navy was flowing down the river. As the gateway to the north of Tokyo, Huazhou also had a navy guarding the Yellow River ferry.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
A horn sounded, and a fleet appeared on the lower reaches of the Yellow River. Ruan Xiaoqi stood on the bow of the big ship at the front. It was Liang Shanbo's naval force who had arrived.
"My sons, disperse and kill the enemy!"
As soon as Ruan Xiaoqi saw the officers and soldiers, he immediately shouted, the flag soldiers on the mast waved their flags, and the ships changed from a straight shape to a herringbone shape and charged towards the officers and soldiers.
"Song Jiang, it seems you failed again!"
Sun Lei looked at Song Jiang on the boat and laughed.
Song Jiang's face was gloomy. He didn't expect that Sun Lei had reinforcements above the Yellow River. If he had known that this was the case, he would have tried his best to stop Sun Lei.
Before the Liangshan fleet got close to the official fleet, a row of artillery fired. The official fleet instantly became a mess, and screams could be heard amidst the flying ships.
"Even these broken ships dare to go against me, Liangshan, kill them!"
Zhang Shun roared, and the fleet directly fired at the official fleet while firing.
Since the Jinmingchi Navy was abolished, the most elite navy in the north is only the Dengzhou Navy. The rest are some inconspicuous sampan fishing boats, which are only used when crossing the river at most, and are not warships at all.
The Liangshan giant ship was like a tiger rushing into a flock of sheep. It didn't even have to jump to the side of the ship. The giant ship crushed it and directly crushed the small boats of the army.
"Can this be considered a naval force? What a fool. Without the Yanyun barrier, the navy is not prepared. The hinterland of the Central Plains is like meat on a chopping board, ready to be cut off by anyone."
Sun Lei was speechless for a while. Huazhou was the last barrier to the north of Tokyo. In the era of cold weapons, relying on the width of the Yellow River, it could be turned into a "Great Wall".
Although the Jin Kingdom, Liao Kingdom, and Xixia Kingdom have strong combat capabilities, the problem of the small number of foreigners has never been solved. As long as they have a powerful fleet and cross the Yellow River, how can they be afraid of a group of nomadic cavalry? But the Northern Navy of the Song Dynasty was so fragile. This strategic mistake deserved their tragic end.
"Song Jiang, goodbye!"
Sun Lei waved to Song Jiang, smiled, got on the ship, and left along the river.
Song Jiang looked at the broken boat planks on the Yellow River, the corpses floating on the river, and Sun Lei walking away. He was so angry that he didn't seize such a good opportunity.
