Chapter 585 Flooded the Three Armies
In August, the waves are rushing, and the thousands of feet of Cui Wei are astounding. -------- Qing Dynasty. Wu Weiye's "Qinyuanchun Watching the Tide"
Speaking of the north shore of Chaohu Lake and the head of Jixin Beach, a sudden black smoke rose into the sky, which immediately caused a chaos among Cao's troops on the beach. Although Yu Jin forced himself to calm down and ordered everyone to withdraw to the ship, his subordinates who were rushing to land on the beach were still in a dilemma, completely confused by the gongs and shouts.
Cao Jun's sword and shield soldiers barely erected shield walls on the mudflat to cover Cao Jun's retreat. The teams retreated in chaos, and various accidents involving cars and falling into the water occurred one after another. Fortunately, the water on the tidal flats was shallow, so the lives of the soldiers were not endangered. However, after the entire army retreated, they still saw no crossbowmen coming out of the nearby hills. Yu Jin and Chang Xi couldn't help but look at each other. The Qinglong Army was missing the best opportunity to ambush Cao's army. What medicine was being sold in the gourd?
Chang Xi looked at the chaos of Cao's soldiers and murmured: "Is there something wrong? That smoke may be the fire from the sky." Yu Jin couldn't help but hesitate after hearing this. After all, as far as the surrounding fields could be seen, there was no silence. Is there half a shadow of the Blue Dragon Army?
After all, Yu Jin was a well-known general who cared about the city. Knowing that he could no longer issue contradictory orders at this moment, he turned to the guards and said, "You guys, please stop standing here. I have given you a special mission. Immediately go ashore to investigate the thick smoke. If It’s really heavenly fire**, immediate reward.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the subordinates were listening with clasped fists, when suddenly a loud thunder-like sound in the air exploded in the ears of all Cao Jun. Yu Jin, who had just let go of his half-heartedness, became entangled in his heart. If General Yu had a heart disease, he might be about to fall ill at this time.
Yu Jin suddenly turned his head and looked up at the sky. Suddenly, lightning flashed, and he saw dark clouds gathering above his head, which was actually a sign of a thunderstorm. Lightning illuminated the entire tidal flat, followed by another loud thunderclap, and heavy rain poured down.
Chang Xi hurriedly grabbed the lapel of Yu Jin's clothes, meaning to ask the general to go into the cabin to take shelter from the rain. Yu Jin ignored the water stains on his face and shook Chang Xi's hand away: "It's too late! You guys don't go to investigate anymore. Send the order immediately and land immediately!" When the messenger next to him heard this, he immediately threw away the gong in his hand. , sounded the clarion call for beach landing.
The sound of the horn quickly dispersed in the heavy rain. Yu Jin and Shen jumped into the waterway with a splash and personally ordered all the soldiers to move forward and land. Behind Yu Jin, Chang Xi and all the escorts also jumped down to cover the general's landing. Cao Jun once again received the order to return to the shore, and there was another chaos. The shield wall that had just been erected was quickly dismantled. The exhausted soldiers twisted their bodies again, almost using their hands and feet, to grab the large muddy beach with quite a slope.
Yu Jin struggled forward in the water and personally urged the soldiers forward. When he saw several soldiers lying in the water who could not crawl, he squatted down and helped them up. Just as he stood up, he suddenly saw Chang Xi beside him, his face turned pale, his lips were biting tightly, he was pointing forward and speechless. He quickly turned his head and saw a bright thin line on the top of the slope not far away. Like the strings played by the spring breeze, or like the soft waves of mercury on the ground, it quickly magnified in front of my eyes. A soft thread came from the sound of thunder and rain that was drowned by the sound of the tide.
Although Yu Jin was well-informed, he felt dizzy at that moment. Just as he had time to open his mouth widely, and before he could make a warning sound, the white wave strings formed by the waves, leading the surging tide, were already coming like a wild horse, the tide was higher than the height of several people, and it was booming. With a sound, Yu Jin was dragged up and violently thrown into the waves.
The waves push the waves, and the waves pile on the waves, rolling the human body to jump and roll, setting off layers of stormy waves. The empty fishing boat was like a twisted dance jumping on the waves, and few lucky people were able to hold on to the side of the boat.
At this moment, thunder exploded, the wind roared, the rain poured down, and the surging tide roared in like a tiger descending from the mountain, swallowing everything on the beach. No matter how thick the shield wall was, it could not stop the power of nature. Almost all of it was washed away. The wooden shield rolled and drifted with the tide. Yu Jin knew that his 12,000 soldiers were dead, and he felt sad and bitter in his heart, and wanted to survive. He instinctively reached out and grabbed randomly, and he was lucky enough to catch a wooden shield. Yu Jin was lying on it, floating and sinking, and fainted. He didn't know where he was carried by the flood.
It turned out that before the real thunderbolt arrived, the first loud noise heard by Cao Jun was the sound of Zhao Yun using the Bainiaochaophoenix gun in his hand and combining it with the internal force to create a small white dragon, smashing the upstream sluice gate in one fell swoop. Zhao Zilong's skill of splitting objects through the air was evolved based on Chen Long, the master of the Qinglong, who used his internal power to split the air. The little white dragon transformed from his internal power flew out of the gun and slashed viciously at the heavily-pressured water gate, accompanied by a shocking sound. With a loud bang like a thunderbolt, the giant sluice wood was shattered, and together with the tide several feet high, it poured down the river without any hindrance. In front of the huge wave was an unobstructed beach, which was covered with densely packed Cao soldiers.
Just as God was causing trouble, dark clouds were rolling on the lake, and lightning and thunderstorms came as scheduled, as if to cooperate with the power of Zhao Zilong's shot. The perfect combination of heavy rain and floods brought disaster to the three Yujin armies that came unexpectedly, and Jixin Beach turned into a hell on earth in an instant.
Wang Ping couldn't bear it, and looked ugly. The rain hit his face, and he could only feel his own tears. Zhao Yun knew his feelings well and was not comforted. Seeing that the rain was getting lighter and the water flow in the two rivers was gradually calming down, he loudly issued an order: "Everyone get on the raft, bring more hooks and nooses, and seize the remaining warships on the lake. Remember." Don’t ask for baggage, save those you can save first!”
Wang Ping felt relieved after hearing this, and quickly jumped onto the raft and took out a few scratching hooks. Zhao Yun's words of rescuing people were just to comfort Wang Ping, but most of Cao's army was rushed into the depths of Chao Lake. Who knows how many people could be saved? Fire and water are merciless, and this act of diversion and killing is considered to be against the harmony of nature, but for the sake of the Qinglong Army fighting for the welfare of the people, there is no room for Zhao Zilong to back down.
The wooden raft went down the river and crossed the Jixin Beach, which was several feet deep in the water. Only a few people could be rescued in the torrential rain. Cao Jun's corpses were everywhere upside down in the water. Few people could escape from the huge waves and mud. The beach climbs the shore to the hills.
Zhao Yun ordered everyone to board the warship and wipe out the remaining people. There were only a few fishermen and sailors left on the ship, and they all surrendered immediately. Zhao Yun also got on a fishing boat, and together with Wang Ping, he picked up the hook and went into the lake to fish out the lucky ones who caught floating objects such as wooden shields.
But time was running out. Although Yu Jin's three armies had been eliminated, Hefei City still had to deal with the large forces of Cao Ren and Cao Hong that were about to arrive, so Zhao Yun ordered that he only allowed one hour to search before returning.
Wang Ping looked around in the middle of the lake and directed the fishing boats to approach the small black spots that could be seen, hoping to rescue more Cao Jun who fell into the water. It was Huang Tian who had paid off, and Wang Ping suddenly caught a glimpse of a man lying on a wooden shield, floating and sinking. He quickly ordered the fishing boat to come closer, hooked the silk ribbon around the shield man's waist with a hook, and brought him aboard. The man fell sideways on the deck, his face was like gold paper, his mouth was vomiting water, his hands and feet were cold, and he was unconscious. Wang Ping recognized him. He knelt in front of this person with one leg, put his hand on his chest and shouted: "Wen Ze! Wen Ze wake up!"
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
