Zhao Jiehou was a little confused.
"Young Master, I know people who are good at water, but what do you mean by people who are good at diving?"
"He is someone who can dive into the water, see things with his eyes, and hold his breath for a long time!"
"Young Master said so, I knew it!"
Zhao Jiahou immediately thought of someone: "There is a man under me named Er Gouzi. He is not good at fighting, but he is good at gambling. Once he was chased for gambling debts, and he lay down in the water without any time to burn a stick of incense. Show your head!"
"Okay, it's him. Call him over now. I'll personally give him a task!"
Yuan Yao's eyes lit up. It would be best if he could hold his breath underwater. If not, there was an alternative.
Anyway, there are a lot of reed poles around here!
"yes!"
Soon, the nameless Ergouzi was brought to Yuan Yao by Zhao Jiahou.
Er Gouzi was confused. As the most cowardly person in the whole village, what was he going to do when the village chief summoned him before the battle?
"Are you the Ergouzi?"
Yuan Yao looked Er Gouzi up and down, and felt that with his appearance, he even deserved the name Er Gouzi.
Ergouzi looked sideways at Yuan Yao and said with his hands, "Young master, what are your instructions for calling me?"
This was not because he was rude, but because his eye was crooked once and he had no money to seek treatment from a doctor. From then on, he could only look sideways at people.
"I heard that you can hold a stick of incense underwater for as long as you want?"
Monk Ergouzi Zhanger was confused: "That was before!"
"Oh? What now?"
"I can hold incense for two sticks now!"
Yuan Yao suddenly smiled. Although ten minutes was far from the Guinness World Record, it was enough.
"If you don't believe it, young master, I will show it to you now!"
Ergouzi saw Yuan Yao laughing and thought Yuan Yao didn't believe it.
"No, no, you can hold a stick of incense for as long as you want!"
"Er Gouzi, how many people will you behead in this battle?"
Ergouzi blushed and said, "Brothers were running too fast just now. I couldn't even get in front, so I couldn't decapitate you!"
Yuan Yao could tell at a glance that Ergouzi was lying. It was obvious that he was timid and ran at the back, but he said that someone else had beaten him ahead of him.
Yuan Yao smiled again: "Then do you want to be like other brothers and get slaves in fertile land?"
Er Gouzi's eyes lit up and he said, "Of course I do!"
"Then you do something for me. Don't worry, you can definitely do it with your ability. And as long as you say that your ability to hold your breath is not a lie, you will definitely survive!"
"After the deed is accomplished, I will reward you for beheading ten people, and I will reward you with an additional 100,000 yuan!"
Ergouzi immediately nodded and said, "Master, please give me your instructions!"
A moment later, Ergouzi, who took off his armor and was protected by the crowd, secretly entered the water carrying a rope and two sharp knives.
Not only Er Gouzi, Huang Yi also led a death squad of thirty people. He also took off his heavy armor and helmet, only carrying some ropes and swords.
Yuan Yao, Huang Yi and Zhao Jiaohou looked at each other and walked to their respective positions.
Peng Cai on the boat looked at Yuan Jun on the shore with some confusion.
At this time, he transferred to a large ship that was three feet high. Standing on the bow of the ship, he had a clear view of Yuan Jun at the bridge entrance.
He was very puzzled when he saw thirty men in Yuan's army taking off their armor.
"What kind of tricks does Captain Yuan want to play?"
"Why doesn't the formation he formed this time look like a defensive formation?"
"Are we going to do the same thing again? Are we continuing to carry out counter-attacks?"
The dog-headed military advisor next to him analyzed.
Peng Cai shook his head.
"This doesn't look like an offensive formation!"
"The soldiers are arranged in one column, three columns parallel, and arranged vertically!"
"More like a marching queue?"
"Is he going to run away?"
"But the bridge entrance is surrounded by water on three sides, where should he run?"
"Did he treat the thousands of people in front of him like nothing? How dare he break through without forming a rhombus or triangle formation?"
"You really think you won the battle just now, and you treat our Peng family members like we are just chickens and dogs?"
"Dare you use your marching troops to break out of the encirclement by running?"
Peng Cai sneered. After all, he was just a boy in his early twenties.
It's so whimsical that you take an accident as your own fault!
The dog-headed military advisor began to think carefully.
"Young Master, Captain Yuan is not trying to lead people to run south from the bridge, is he?"
Peng Cai immediately gave the dog-headed military advisor a slap in the face.
"Do you have a dog's brain?"
"Yuan Yao still has a stupid brain!"
"Did he panic and run directly south to Shangliao City, where we live?"
Peng Cai spat and cursed.
The dog-headed military advisor was beaten so dizzy that he sat down on the deck with his face in his hands.
"To the south is Hezhou. He came from a place surrounded by water on three sides to a place surrounded by water on all sides. It is still my Peng clan's clan. Is it because he didn't die fast enough?"
As soon as Peng Cai finished speaking, he saw the thirty officers and soldiers who had taken off their heavy armor and rushed onto the bridge and ran quickly towards the south bank.
That speed is faster than a dog!
Then the remaining soldiers of Sergeant Yuan, under the command of the commanders, entered the bridge in a formation of three in a row and ten in a row, and also headed straight to the south bank.
There were thirty people in one team, and in the blink of an eye, three teams of people were on the bridge.
The dog-headed military advisor covered his mouth and got up. When he saw that he had guessed the truth, he was about to look at Peng Cai. But another slap came over me!
"You crow's mouth!"
"I didn't tell you earlier!"
The other half of the dog-headed strategist's face finally became symmetrical.
In the blink of an eye, the thirty people at the front ran across the 100-foot-long bridge.
Thirty seconds is enough to cover a distance of more than two hundred meters.
There were only about a hundred old and weak people guarding the other side of the bridge, and they basically had no weapons.
The main reason was that Peng Jin didn't have enough boats, so the hundred or ten men couldn't get on the boat in the end, otherwise they would all be pulled by Peng Jin to prepare to attack Yuan Jun at the bridge entrance on the north bank from three sides.
Seeing dozens of fierce-looking Yuan Jun rushing toward him, these hundreds of people immediately turned into birds and beasts and dispersed. Only a few Peng clan members who were so frightened that they stood still were chopped down by Huang Yi with a few swords.
Then he continued running south.
Then the first team of 30 Yuan Jun took a minute to cross the bridge, and then the second team. These armored men crossed the bridge and immediately began to regroup at the south bank of the bridge.
But the thirty Yuan soldiers without armor were still running straight south as if they were dead.
Peng Cai finally realized that Yuan Yao actually had thoughts about Shangliaocheng!
Peng Cai broke out in a cold sweat when he thought of the crowds of people passing through the open door of Shangliao City when he came out.
"Why doesn't Peng Hu attack! What is he waiting for!"
Peng Cai couldn't bear it anymore and stood on the boat and yelled.
Because thousands of Peng's men and Yuan Jun were on the ground, due to perspective problems, they could not see the movement on the bridge behind Yuan Jun for a while.
It wasn't until Huang Yi and others were about to cross the bridge that the Peng clan members on both sides discovered that someone from Yuan Jun behind the military formation ran towards the bridge.
And he was not wearing armor, so he was noisy.
When his subordinates reported the news to Peng Hu, Peng Hu was stunned.
"There were deserters among the officers and soldiers, who abandoned their helmets and armor and fled to the south bank in a panic?"
Peng Hu hurriedly jumped on the sidecar, stood on tiptoes and took a look. Sure enough, dozens of officers and soldiers were running across the bridge without any clothes or armor.
But why are there more officers and soldiers lined up neatly behind the shield formation, running across the bridge?
Peng Hu was confused for a moment, not knowing whether to launch an attack immediately or put Yuan Jun on the south bank surrounded by water and "hunt" with no retreat!
To be honest, Yuan Yao should be grateful to Peng Hu for not having read "The Art of War" by Peng Hu, otherwise he should know the principle of "strike halfway across"!
