Liu Yu and more than 20 personal guards were all from Donglai County and grew up by the sea. Compared with the sea, the flow of the Jiaoshui River was nothing to mention.
After nightfall, it was not until midnight that Liu Yu and his guards secretly crossed the river.
After landing ashore, everyone put on their armor. Liu Yu's troops were divided into three groups. Liu Yu and Dong Ping led two groups to launch a surprise attack at the same time from the south and west of the Cangchuan Water Village.
In addition, three people were left to ambush the only way between Shuizhai and Xu's Wubao in the south, to intercept the messengers who escaped from Shuizhai.
Liu Yu led his personal guards and sneaked for three miles before finally seeing the faint water village.
Liu Yu and the others moved forward more cautiously, but there should be no hidden sentry outside the wall of the water village, because Liu Yu and the others easily reached the place only ten feet away in front of the camp gate.
Just when Liu Yu wanted to get closer and check the manpower guarding the gate, the sound of horse hooves came from the quiet night.
After a while, two riders rushed to the village gate on horseback.
"Open the door, open the door, I'm back. The mosquitoes in the middle of the night almost ate me." A rider shouted to the lookout.
Soon, the people on the lookout said a few words into the village wall. Then the wooden village door was opened from the inside, and three people walked out. One of them held a torch in his hand, and the other two walked to the village wall. On both sides of the village gate, go and lower the suspension bridge.
"Wang Sangou, you are a bird, you must not patrol the river properly, you must be hiding somewhere to sleep." The man with the torch laughed and cursed.
As soon as he saw that the suspension bridge at the village gate was lowered, Liu had a premonition that it was a God-given opportunity that could not be missed, so he jumped up from the lurking bushes without hesitation.
Liu Yu skillfully picked up a bow and set an arrow. He drew the hard-horned bow in his hand like a full moon in an instant. Using the light from the torch at the entrance of the village, he aimed at an enemy soldier who was setting up a suspension bridge.
With a "boom" sound, the strings sounded softly, and the feather arrows shot out like lightning, instantly hitting the soldier's front door on the left side of the village gate.
The person who was hit by the arrow screamed and fell to the ground on his back, driven by the huge inertia of the arrow.
"There's a thief!"
The man holding the torch shouted loudly.
"Hurry and pull the suspension bridge!"
As he spoke, he wanted to pull up the suspension bridge, but there was still a horse and rider returning from night patrol parked on the suspension bridge. The heavy solid wood suspension bridge was even more impossible to pull up and close.
After Liu Yu shot the first arrow, he shot the second feather arrow without any pause. With the sound of the bow string being released, the rider on the suspension bridge was hit by the arrow. The feather arrow penetrated his neck, and even the screams were heard. Before he could send it out, he fell down on the bridge under the horse.
At the same time, a guard beside Liu Yu also shot an arrow, knocking the second rider off his horse.
In the blink of an eye, the three people were killed on the spot. The man holding the torch was so frightened that he threw away the torch. He screamed unconsciously while struggling and dragging his two unruly legs to the stronghold. Escape for your life through the door.
When the torch was dimmed and his vision blurred, Liu Yu put away his bow and arrows and drew out his long knife.
"Kill me!"
Liu Yu took the lead and led ten personal guards, screaming and rushing towards the gate of the village.
A distance of more than ten feet was reached in the blink of an eye. One horse was frightened and ran away, while the remaining horse was held by Liu Yu.
Soon, seven or eight private soldiers inside and outside the village gate were hacked to the ground, and the screams of fighting alarmed the entire water village.
At this time, Dong Ping, who was at the west gate of the camp, heard what was going on here and began to capture the west gate.
Liu Yu asked his personal guards to continue to advance and attack while setting fire to the huts and tents in the camp. He got on his horse, held a torch and set fire, while clashing and slashing to create chaos.
"what's the situation!?"
Xu Yue, the steward of the water village, just rushed out of the tent and grabbed a soldier next to him to ask.
"Thieves, thieves are coming from the south gate!" The soldier looked panicked.
"What thieves are there? How many are there?" Xu Yue continued to ask anxiously.
Soon, several confidants rushed to Xu Yue to protect him. At this time, Xu Yue probably learned that a group of thieves had captured the south gate and came in. There was another group of thieves attacking the west gate, but no one knew the total number. How many thieves are there.
Seeing the burning tents and the soldiers running around, Xu Yue suppressed the fear in his heart and shouted loudly: "Don't run around! Everyone, come to me with weapons!"
Xu Yue thought that no matter how many thieves there were, he would gather his own men first so that he could still have some capital whether to fight or flee.
But the soldiers running around were already in a panic, and most of them didn't hear Xu Yue's words at all.
At this moment, Xu Yue saw a thief on horseback in front of him. He caused a conflict in the camp, setting fire to and killing the rebels. One man created huge chaos.
"Xu Wu, Wang Bo, go and kill this horse-riding thief. You will be rewarded heavily." Xu Yue said through gritted teeth.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two guards around Xu Yue roared and charged out with two spears.
Liu Yu had been riding on his horse, clashing left and right, killing all the enemies who tried to resist in groups. Suddenly, among the crowd who had turned their backs to Liu Yu and fled, two people came towards Liu Yu with their spears and went against the crowd to kill him.
Liu Yu snorted coldly and spurred his horse forward. At the same time, he took out his horn bow, quickly drew an arrow and set it on the string. When the arrow came back, one of the soldiers was shot in the throat and was immediately carried backward by the potential energy of the arrow. He stood up and fell to the ground with a thud.
When another soldier saw how ferocious the Donglai thief in front of him was, the courage he had summoned suddenly disappeared in fear. However, the terrifying Donglai thief had already galloped to the front, so he had to muster up his courage and draw his gun to meet the enemy.
After an arrow was shot, Liu Yu quickly drew back his bow and raised his gun. The remaining enemy soldier's stiff movement of raising the gun had no effect on Liu Yu. Liu Yu flicked the head of his gun to get rid of the obstruction, and the sharp tip of the gun instantly cut through. The soldier's throat.
The momentum of Liu Yu's horse did not decrease, and he continued to rush forward and fight fiercely. In an instant, he defeated a large number of enemies with his spear and horse.
Not far ahead, he saw a group of people surrounding and guarding one person. He guessed that he must be an important figure in the village. Liu Yu gave a loud shout and urged his horse to shoot him.
There were only five or six soldiers gathered around Xu Yue. At this time, Liu Yu's face turned pale with fright as he looked at Liu Yu who was getting closer and closer. Finally, one of them turned around and ran away with a "yeah" sound. The group of people dispersed instantly, leaving only Xu Yue. Standing frozen on the spot.
As soon as Liu Yu reined in the horse, the horse stood up, and Liu Yu gave a loud shout.
"I am Liu Jixing of Donglai. Those who surrender will avoid death!"
Xu Yue looked at the ferocious god in front of him, his legs weakened and he knelt down on the ground, crying, "Surrender, surrender, my king, please spare my life!"
At this time, the west gate of the camp was also breached, and the people led by Dong Ping entered the camp through the west gate. The Xu family's private soldiers in the camp were panicked. Except for those who escaped by swimming through the water gate, all the others knelt down and surrendered honestly.
