Hearing General Pi's shouts, Xia Houfu stood up hastily, raised his head and looked forward.
In front of him, the fire boats one after another, like evil ghosts seeking their lives, rushed towards the water formation of buildings and boats with their teeth and claws.
"Song Valley, it's Song Valley."
"The Salt Island Army rebelled against the Alliance..."
A feeling of powerlessness quickly spread throughout Xia Houfu's body. Later, there was the Qingzhou Army, and within the alliance's naval formation, there were anti-alliance rebels.
Moreover, this anti-Alliance rebel force took advantage of the darkness to launch a fire attack. How could this newly laid water formation disperse so quickly?
"Notify all the boatmen to disperse the boats immediately!" Xia Houfu shouted in a hissing voice.
But after only shouting a few words, they found that the Qingzhou Army who was originally behind them was also roaring towards them.
It's too late, everything is too late.
boom.
The two fastest fire boats had already collided with the building ship. With the help of kerosene, the building ship quickly burned. Fire snakes continued to climb around the surrounding warships, and the Alliance soldiers screamed in pain one by one.
Just waiting for more and more fire boats to collide, the entire water formation has become blazing into the sky. Along with this, there were also long-range fire arrows from the Qingzhou Army, which took the opportunity to land on the coalition warships.
In the firelight, Xia Hofu's body trembled and his face became blank. Between the lightning and flint, two groups of anti-Alliance rebels launched a pincer attack.
"General Xiahou, I can't stop you anymore!" Whether it was Mi Taoist disciples or people from the Nine Tribes of Dongyue, their voices were trembling with shock.
"My lord Zuo Shiren has joined the Xiangjiang Alliance to eradicate the demon queen and help the country. But God is helping the thieves!"
Boom, another fire boat collided.
Even the main ship was half burned.
"Xia Houfu, descend quickly!"
"Aventurine Alliance descends quickly!"
Amidst the continuous fire, countless voices urging surrender came and went.
After finally standing firm, Xia Houfu gritted his teeth and had no intention of surrender. Instead, he drew his long sword, led his bodyguards, gathered the still alive navy soldiers, and began to jump out of the canoe and head towards the anti-Alliance rebels. , went to death and killed him.
…
"Back then, Xu Buyi had a fire in Fushan that burned down Chen Changqing's imperial aspirations. Now, I am on the Xiangjiang River, and the same fire has driven Zuo Shiren to death."
Standing on the bow of the boat, Tang Wuyuan laughed at his words.
"Once General Xia Houfu dies, no matter what Zuo Shiren wants to do, he will be a lone army. However, I suddenly hope that this benevolent king of Dongling Three States can bring me some surprises."
As he said that, Tang Wuyuan suddenly turned his head to the side, with a pity expression on his face.
"Xu Buyi is really a smart man. This time, he did not enter the master's chessboard. However, after Zuo Shiren lost power, Xu Buyi no longer had allies to help him."
"The general trend of the world has changed again, and I, Tang Wuyuan, am the one driving the general trend." Facing the fire, Tang Wuyuan's entire face was illuminated red.
"Whoever kills the allied general Xia Houfu will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and be worshiped as a fourth-grade general!"
"Listen to my order, the entire army forms a siege, and every dog that falls into the water in Dongling will be killed!"
…
"No more, all gone." Xia Houfu raised his head and screamed.
At this moment, there were only the last two hundred or so people, divided into three warships. The rest were either caught in the fire or drowned in the scalding river.
"My Heavenly Master...has also gone." Lu Xiang cried loudly, "General Xiahou, for this plan, we must first find a way to leave. At this time, taking advantage of the chaos, there is no chance of survival."
"Tianshi Lu, I can't leave." Xiahou Fu closed his eyes, "I will leave two warships and two hundred loyal warriors. If Tianshi Lu can escape and meet my lord, then you say... a certain Xiahou Although Fu lost power in the war, he did not show any signs of begging for a living. If there is an afterlife, a certain Xiahou Fu will also follow him."
"Where is the general going?"
"After a huge defeat, I have no face to see the Dongling elders, and a certain Xiahou Fu died for Zhaolie!"
"Master Lu, thank you Xiahou Fu. I will buy you some time, and I also ask Master Lu to go quickly."
Lu Xiang knelt on the bow of the boat and cried again.
Among the more than 60 Dongling soldiers who were riding in the same boat with Xia Houfu, no one escaped over the boat. They all drew their swords and guarded Xia Houfu.
"Okay, okay... Dongling Xiahou Fu, lead sixty loyal and brave men to defeat the captives and kill the enemy!"
A lone warship crossed the sky with flames and rushed toward the Qingzhou Army's long wall water formation, rushing to its death.
"Respectfully, congratulate General Xiahou!"
Lu Xiang gritted his teeth and stood up, leading the last two warships to escape quickly in the direction of the other side.
The lone small warship in the vast river and sea of fire never moved any more after waves of flying arrows fell from the sky.
…
"Xia Houfu, the general of Dongling Navy, died in the battle in the middle of the river."
After hearing the news, Xu Mu was silent for a moment.
"There are two groups of rebels, one is the Qingzhou Army, and the other is the Yandao Army. The Yandao Army hid in the Tangling Navy Formation, launched a fire attack at night, and attacked the Qingzhou Army from front to back. The Alliance Navy was defeated miserably."
Dongfang Jing frowned, "The Demon Queen's plan has already begun. I feel that this time it is the Dongling Alliance. They are not joining forces to attack together, but they have fallen into the Demon Queen's plan."
As he spoke, Dongfang Jing's voice sounded a little frightened.
"Fortunately, the master did not get involved."
It must be said that Dongfang Jing's sense of conspiracy is indeed astute. Repeated reminders told Xi Shu not to lead the army to the shore easily.
If not, he might have fallen into the Demon Queen's plan.
"Where is Zuo Shiren?" After thinking for a while, Xu Mu spoke.
"I don't know." Dongfang Jing shook his head, "Zuo Shiren seems to have disappeared. I guess he is about to take action. But no matter what, the coalition forces were wiped out, and Zuo Shiren was already a lone army with no more of help.”
Xu Mu had thought that the Dongling Alliance might be defeated. But I never expected that it would end in such a disastrous defeat.
"My Lord, the Cangzhou Navy has returned to the dock." At this time, Ma Yi hurriedly came to report, "In addition, the soldiers on Miaotong's side were filled with sorrow and seemed to want to immediately set off for an expedition to avenge the defeat of the Dongling Allied Forces. .”
"Ma Yi, let's invite Miao Tong to the main ship first." Xu Mu frowned. Even if 40,000 people rush over, they no longer have any advantage under the current circumstances.
"Because my lord has not entered the game, the Cangzhou Navy has to retreat first." Dongfang Jing sighed, "The defeat on the river has been completed, my lord must not act too hastily. You can stay on the river and do not retreat first. As a military force , so that the Demon Queen does not dare to transfer the navy easily."
"If the Cangzhou navy dares to cross the river and fight -" Dongfang Jing's expression turned cold for a moment, "Since the numbers are equal, my lord may as well prepare for war. I, Dongfang Jing, am confident that I can defeat Cangzhou who has crossed the river. Navy, annihilate at least half of them."
"Brad's brilliant plan."
At this point, Xu Mu has no other choice. Now, he only hopes that Zuo Shiren's side can make a good comeback.
