On the beach of the river, dozens of bonfires burned into the sky, turning the sky red. The river beach was full of people, and groups of soldiers were walking back and forth carrying wood on the river beach, making it a busy scene.
From far away, there was the sound of "bang bang bang" banging on wood, the neighing of horses dragging wood and being whipped, the shouts of soldiers, and the trembling of branches and leaves in the surrounding woods swept by the cold wind.
Song Mojie sat high on the horse, hiding in the darkness and looking at the scene in the distance, his brows knitted together. Although he was not clear from a distance, he could still tell what the navy was doing.
"Young Marshal, what is the naval camp doing?" a general next to him asked in a low voice.
"Hmph, the river is frozen but there is still a risk of the ice breaking. They must be preparing to abandon their warships and forcefully cross the river and build some rafts to prevent the ice from breaking. What a pair of Zhu family thieves and son. When our Zhennan Army is in desperate situation, they actually plan to If you cross the river overnight and escape, you will be punished." Song Mojie sneered.
It suddenly dawned on everyone that these people were walking around carrying logs, and the sound of knocking was probably assembling many small rafts into shapes. It turned out that they really wanted to cross the river.
"Young Marshal, what are we waiting for? Let's rush down immediately and slaughter them all on the river beach! We are all elite cavalry, are we still afraid of his navy troops?"
"Wait a minute, I've heard for a long time that Zhu Lingyun has many tricks. We have already suffered a secret loss from the imperial army today. We must not underestimate the enemy when we clean up the navy this time. Count the people on the river beach and see how many there are." Song Mojie waved his hand. road.
Everyone stretched out their heads and started counting heads on the river beach. Unfortunately, the distance was too far. The shadows of people and children on the beach were flickering and the lights of fire flickered. People and horses were mixed in and out. After counting for a long time, they couldn't even count.
】
"There are only over ten thousand sailors. They are probably all there, but some of them can't be counted outside the firelight. How about we get closer and take a look." A general smacked his lips.
"No, they will definitely arrange secret sentries. When they get close, they will alert the snake. It doesn't matter if we can't count them. Even if their whole army is here, we are not afraid. The key is to see if Zhu Lingyun and his dog son Zhu Bosong are on the river beach. If they are there , then there must be no tricks." Song Mojie blinked and searched carefully on the river beach.
"Where is it? The last general saw that boy, the one riding a yellow horse and gesticulating. Yes or no?" the general beside him whispered.
Song Mojie looked in the direction he pointed and saw the young man at a glance. When he saw the young man sitting on the horse and gesticulating, he became angry. For some reason, Song Mojie suddenly thought of what happened during the day, and the same humiliation of being lured into an ambush by a young man came to his mind.
At the same time, he also saw a black horse standing next to Zhu Bosong, with a general in armor sitting on it. I have a deep impression on weekdays. The general on the dark horse is none other than Zhu Lingyun.
"The thieves and their son are over there supervising the construction of the raft. Damn it, let me capture these two guys alive in a while. I want their heads to be sacrificed to the flag before setting off tomorrow!" Song Mojie's eyes were so excited that he went to the He spat thick phlegm in the cold wind.
"Young Marshal, can we take action? General Mo immediately ordered the brothers to prepare. General Yi Mo saw that we don't need to be fancy, just ride down the river beach and kill them all with swords and guns. Mahakala's bows and arrows are also There’s no need to release it, lest you injure one of your own and waste the arrows, we’ll have to fight again tomorrow.”
"That's true, but don't panic. Send people to touch both sides first to see if there are any ambushes. I'm still a little worried." Song Mojie muttered.
All the generals were thinking: Has the Young Marshal lost his courage? After the battle during the day, Song Mojie was obviously much more cautious, or in other words, much more timid.
But being cautious was not a bad thing after all, and everyone did not want an accident to happen, so they quietly retreated to the large group of soldiers and horses. The 10,000 elite cavalry were divided into three teams. Two of the teams went hundreds of steps away to the left and right to investigate in a roundabout way, just in case.
The soldiers in the middle group had their swords out of their scabbards and guns like a forest. The strictly trained horses did not make a single unnecessary sound under the control of the knights. The entire cavalry team was like a three-pronged steel fork flying slowly in the dark night, heading towards The direction of the fire on the riverbank was slowly approaching.
Within a distance of five or six hundred steps, the situation on the river beach was already very clear. The voices of the navy soldiers coming and going, and the scoldings of the generals commanding them could be clearly heard. The distance of five to six hundred steps was already very close, although Song Mojie hoped to be closer so that he could rush down the river beach with lightning speed and not give the navy a chance to react.
But Song Mojie also knew that it was unrealistic to touch further, because the northeast wind was blowing from behind. Even if the cavalry moved forward with the slightest sound, the more than 10,000 subtle sounds would still be extremely abrupt and would be blown by the northeast wind. Towards the bottom of the river embankment.
In fact, Song Mojie had discovered that some of the navy troops on the river embankment were looking at the wasteland above the river embankment in surprise. The direction they were looking at was exactly the direction where his troops were.
Song Mojie knew that he could not wait any longer.
So he slowly raised the spear in his hand, and the long and narrow blade of the spear was blown in the air by the strong wind, making a buzzing sound in his ears, which made Song Mojie's body covered with goosebumps and his blood boiled at the same time. This is the sound of gun roar! It's like Song Mojie's state of mind, using this to release the roar of humiliation he suffered during the day!
During the daytime battle, this spear also made this kind of roaring sound in the wind. And in that battle, he ran away and was completely defeated. Now that the roar of the gun was heard again, Song Mojie firmly believed that this time the dawn would break, and he would see the dawn of victory.
"Kill Zhu Lingyun and his son! Kill!" Song Mojie let out a heart-rending roar, spurred the horse with his legs, and the horse leaped out with a neighing sound. As his killing cry fell, the tens of thousands of cavalry around him let out thunderous shouts. Their swords, spears and halberds were raised high like a forest, and their horses galloped forward on the grass waves blown by the strong wind.
"Kill, kill!"
The shouts of killing and the sound of horse hooves all over the mountains and plains shocked the ears. The navy soldiers on the river beach seemed to be stunned, and they all turned around blankly. In just a moment, Song Mojie led the cavalry and rushed within a range of more than 300 steps. Even the panicked expressions of the sailors could be seen very clearly.
Song Mojie's fiery red eyes were always staring in the direction of Zhu Lingyun and Zhu Bosong. He saw the shocked expressions of the two looking back, and felt extremely happy in his heart. He secretly thought to himself, "You are two bitches who eat inside and outside. I will take you and torture you to your heart's content in a short while." Don't die a good death!
But something was strange. Whether it was the hallucination of the jolting horses or whether he didn't see clearly, he seemed to see Zhu Lingyun and Zhu Bosong, father and son, suddenly looked at each other and smiled, and the smile was very strange, just like the smile on Li Yuan's face during the day. A contemptuous smile...
