"Listen to the fishing boats ahead. The Chu and Xiang army is here. Retreat immediately. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy!"
A war general stood on the warship at the front and shouted to Li Dingxing's fishing fleet.
Li Dingxing winked at Xiang Lian'er. Xiang Lian'er understood, and quickly took off her armor, tore the shirt inside into some tatters, messed up her hair, and walked from the cabin to the deck.
"Master Jun, Master Jun, we...we are all fishermen. We live on the river for a living, so don't be angry!" Xiang Lian'er imitated Yi Xiaodao's look, and it was cool.
"Don't you know there's a war going on here? How dare you stop our army! Tell me, what are so many boats doing? I've never seen so many boats fishing together!" The general weighed the spear in his hand. The threat was obvious, but he had no intention of taking action. He just wanted to scare this pretty little lady.
When Xiang Lian'er saw the other party picking up the spear, she quickly said: "I know, of course I know. Who doesn't know it after two years? No... we are here... to visit relatives." Xiang Lian'er was forced to have no choice but to take out Yi Xiaodao's universal excuse.
"Visiting relatives? How many people do you need to visit relatives? You have a lot of relatives. The number of people is small, right?" The general held on to the number of people. At this time, Chen Guang led many soldiers to jump into the water. There were not many people on the boat. There were only seven or eight people on the boat. The number of people in Qianbao was considered to be large.
When Xiang Lian'er was anxious, Li Dingxing, also dressed in plain clothes, walked out of the cabin: "This military man, my wife is not sensible, and I can't say anything right. It's true that we are here to visit relatives. I There is a cousin who is almost thirty. In the past few days, a matchmaker in his village has found a matchmaker for him. No, when we bachelors in the village heard about it, they all went to ask for a cup and feel happy."
"Hey, come out, all of them are timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and they still want to ask for a wife!" Li Dingxing stretched out his hand, and as expected, many men appeared on other fishing boats. These Nanhuai soldiers also followed Li Dingxing's example and took off their armor. , wearing only white clothes. They are all young and strong men, which is exactly what Li Dingxing said.
General Chu Xiang was not happy to see a woman who also had a husband. Hearing about this, he suddenly felt unlucky. He himself was still a single man, and now he bumped into so many people. He was so upset that he immediately waved his hand to drive her away: "Let's go, let's go." , Go back wherever you came from, if there is a fight later, you will die and even the Lord of Hell will not be able to tell you how you died!"
Li Dingxing and Xiang Lian'er quickly nodded and bowed, and they became even more similar after imitating Yi Xiaodao. The two of them didn't say much. They lowered themselves into the cabin and signaled the fishing fleet to deliberately lean to the north shore and sail close to the shore.
"Hey! Go to the south bank! South bank!" Seeing this, the general became very angry and shouted loudly.
Xu Tong waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, how can you, a rough guy from the countryside, know so much? We haven't reached Wancheng yet, let's go quickly." Ge Cifeng's snub made Xu Tong feel depressed, and when his subordinates heard that The shouting is even more irritable.
The Chu Xiang warship stopped paying attention to Li Dingxing and others, and sailed slowly along the river. Li Dingxing stood at the stern of the ship, looking at the "passing by" Chu Xiang battlefield, and nodded to Chen Guang in the water. Chen Guang suddenly sank into the water, and with him a group of Nanhuai soldiers disappeared, leaving only waves swirling on the river surface...
"Dong dong dong"
Silent knocking sounds came from the water. Xu Tong listened carefully and asked around him: "Did you hear any sounds?"
Everyone listened attentively, but they didn't have a good ear like Xu Tong, so they all shook their heads: "I didn't hear it."
Xu Tong had doubts in his heart, pacing back and forth on the boat, listening around, and finally heard clearly! The sound actually came from under the boat!
"There is someone under the boat!" Xu Tong quickly warned.
This time there was no need for him to warn, everyone had heard it, and water had even begun to seep in the bottom cabins of some warships.
"The boat is leaking! What to do!"
"I also have leaks here. There are several holes in the bottom of the boat. Who built the boat!"
"Don't panic, block it, block it first!"
Almost every warship of Chu Xiang had several big holes in the bottom. Even if the soldiers of Chu Xiang blocked it with quick hands and feet, new holes appeared soon and there was no time to block them.
As more and more water accumulated in the cabin, the ship sank deeper and deeper. In the blink of an eye, the water reached the waist of the cabin sergeant. Many soldiers panicked and fled to the deck without bothering to plug the holes.
Xu Tong immediately turned around and ran towards the stern of the boat. On the fishing boats that had just passed by, were there any traces of rough country men? Instead, there were Nanhuai soldiers wearing Nanhuai armor and carrying clear banners.
"Is that General Xu on the ship? General Xu has outstanding military exploits. I have heard about it in Nanhuai! Chuxiang is also mountainous. General Xu, a landlubber like you, is a little confused when you come to this river!" Li Dingxing laughed loudly, Open your mouth and ridicule wantonly.
Xu Tong also guessed Li Dingxing's identity at this time, and was so angry that he smashed the railing in front of him with his palm: "Ignorant boy, if you don't huddle in Nanhuai and beg the court for food and clothing, what are you doing here in Wancheng! Be careful to imitate your father and brother. Kill the headless ghost!"
Li Dingxing had already held the bow in his hand, attached the carved feather arrow, opened the star bow, and aimed at Xu Tong: "Hit!" With a loud shout, the arrow shot straight towards Xu Tong's forehead like a meteor.
Xu Tong quickly turned around to dodge, but was still hit in the shoulder by the arrow. A large piece of his shoulder armor was cut off, and blood flowed down his arm.
Xu Tong, who had suffered a secret loss, naturally did not dare to stand at the stern anymore and retreated to the battlefield deck. In just a short time, the cabin was completely submerged in the water. Many soldiers were so frightened that they jumped into the water and headed towards the shore. Swim away.
"Come back, come back!" The general who had just stopped Li Dingxing's ship raised his spear and shouted at the soldiers in the water.
"Forget it, the boat has been destroyed. Let's all jump into the water and escape. Once we get to the shore, we still have the strength to fight!" Xu Tong held the knife in his hand and jumped into the river. The guards on the left and right knew that the general was incompetent, so they quickly jumped down to rescue Xu Tong.
Li Dingxing moved his right hand that drew the bow, set the second arrow, and aimed into the water.
Chen Guang and a group of Nanhuai soldiers who entered the water first were overjoyed when they saw this situation. They all returned to the water like crocodiles crossing the river. Soon, many Chu Xiang soldiers were dragged by the Nanhuai soldiers. Before even struggling, they were dragged into the water and disappeared.
The soldiers on Li Dingxing's ship couldn't sit still. One or two soldiers were left in each ship, and the rest jumped into the water and joined the battle.
Not all Chu Xiang soldiers were sitting still and waiting to die. Some Chu Xiang soldiers who were born on the riverside were also very good at water. They randomly touched some weapons in the water, and regardless of whether they could take advantage of them or not, as long as they could be used, they started fighting with the Nanhuai army in the water.
The Nanhuai Army not only has excellent water skills, but is also quite talented in fighting in the water. The Chu Xiang Army swung their swords, but due to the resistance in the water, the Nanhuai Army in front of them ducked behind the Chu Xiang Army. Some even grabbed the sword on the spot and gave it a backhand blow. The lives of those who resist.
The river water slowly turned red visibly to the naked eye.
"Ugh~ cough cough cough cough cough cough cough cough cough cough cough... damn... the Li family's child..." Xu Tong was rescued ashore by the attendants on the left and right, spitting out water, his belly became round, and he was still cursing.
"Whoosh" a feather arrow came through the air, more urgent and fierce.
"General, be careful!" The guard on the right saw that something was not going well and kicked the guard on the left to block the arrow. He pressed Xu Tong and the two fell to the ground.
"puff!"
An arrow sealed his throat, and the guard on the left couldn't even shout. He fell limply to the ground, motionless.
Li Dingxing reached for the third arrow, but the rest of the Chu and Xiang troops who had landed had already discovered Xu Tong and rushed to rescue him. They wrapped Xu Tong tightly in three layers and three layers outside. Li Dingxing sighed, reluctantly put down the star bow, replaced it with an ordinary longbow, and shot Chu Xiang's soldiers one by one.
"Leave me alone, get out! Get out!" Xu Tong regained his composure, and without knowing who he grabbed, he ran towards the shore. After running for two steps, I felt heavy in my stomach. I punched my abdomen twice and spit out several mouthfuls of river water. Then I felt much better and got up to continue running for my life.
Xiang Lian'er drew out the Nianjun Sword and jumped up suddenly, almost overturning the fishing boat, but she couldn't care less and rushed towards Xu Tong.
Because of Ge Cifeng's incident, being shot with an arrow, and being choked by water for a long time, Xu Tong had already been holding back his anger. He turned around and saw Xiang Lian'er rushing towards him. He slashed at Xiang Lian'er with a smooth knife.
"Qiang!"
Xiang Lian'er was knocked back, and Xu Tong also used too much force. He slashed with a knife to relieve his strength and fell to the ground.
"Get it!" Many soldiers had gathered around Xu Tong. Xu Tong pointed at Xiang Lian'er. The soldiers were already exhausted, but they had to go up now. Immediately, dozens of soldiers gathered around, pointing their spears at Xiang Lian'er, and slowly approached.
"Chen Guang! Chen Guang! Go and protect my wife!" Li Dingxing knew that these soldiers were no match for Xiang Lian'er, but he was still worried and quickly called Chen Guang, the Nanhuai general who had entered the water earlier.
Chen Guang suddenly emerged from the water, and there was an iron chain in the water. He dragged the iron chain and walked towards the shore. The other end of the chain slowly emerged from the water, and then it became clear that five large living people were tied up! Look at the armor style, they are still five Chu Xiang generals! The general who was shouting with a gun just now was also there, but at this time he had rolled up his eyes, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.
"I caught some big fat fish, please taste them, madam!" Chen Guang casually picked up a spear on the ground, pointing the tip of the spear directly at the five bound generals.
When the surrounding Chu Xiang soldiers saw this, they didn't know what to do and did not dare to step forward for a while.
"Why are you still standing there? Come on! If you want to kill them, they would have been killed in the water! They are not as skilled as others, and they deserve to be captured!" Xu Tong was furious, but Chu Xiang's water battle was his shortcoming, and this is also a fact , and he was helpless.
"The moon shines on the cold river!" The swords struck out with bright light, and those who were struck were chopped to the ground. It was unclear whether they were dead or alive, and no one cared.
"Come on! Come on!" Xu Tong shouted with all his strength, but he immediately turned around and ran away crawling on the ground. The soldiers of Chu Xiang were not fools. The soldiers who could hear Xu Tong's voice were all staring at him. Xu Tong ran away, so naturally no one was willing to turn back and fight. Even many years later, many surviving veterans of Chu Xiang could not help but tremble and tremble when they saw the river, and they had no choice but to move away from the Chuxiang waterfront.
On the southern route, the Nanhuai Army's 10,000 troops faced off against the Chu and Xiang Army's 50,000 troops. A great victory!
