Vigorous and high-spirited.
At this time, there were no more than a thousand troops. Although they were from Dongling, they were Miao Tong's cronies. After receiving Miao Tong's order and considering Miao Tong's previous experience, one or two of them had murderous intent on their faces.
"Get a boat and send General Miao to rest." Cao Hong sighed. He knew that Miao Tong cared about his homeland and was not willing to watch this bloody scene.
"Commander Cao, I'm leaving."
When Miao Tong boarded the ship, Cao Hong, who was the leader of the Night Owls, had a suspicious nature. When he heard this sentence, he suddenly thought of something.
"Wait for the five of you to protect General Miao Tong... If General Miao commits suicide, stop him at all costs."
The five Night Owl warriors nodded calmly, divided into a small boat, and quickly headed towards Miao Tong.
Cao Hong breathed a sigh of relief.
If he cannot bring Miao Tong back, he, the leader of the Night Owls, has failed in his mission.
"Commander Cao, we are all ready." At this time, a man who looked like a captain came up and spoke.
"Very good. This time, I, Cao Hong, can rely on you all!"
"Raising the Dragon Flag——"
…
"Sink!" With the remnants of the navy, Kang Zhu had a hint of madness on his face.
Under the huge plow of the building ship, a Xishu warship in the lead was unable to fight. In just one move, it was smashed into pieces by the building ship.
Although the more than 300 Tanglin warships no longer have a mighty force, they look like they are charging into the formation crazily, and their morale has skyrocketed.
On the Xishu Navy side, after Dou Tong died in battle, Fan Lu took over the post of governor. Following Dou Tong's legacy, he did not retreat at all. Instead, he faced the difficulties and fought the final battle with the Dongling Navy. Fight.
"Lift the racket stick for me!" Fan Lu's eyes were about to burst.
In this water battle, countless old friends died in front of him.
"Bang, collapse!"
With the cooperation of the shield ship, a charred building ship rushed out of the sea of fire. Not long after, the poles were smashed one after another, and it suddenly became unable to hold up. The ship's hull was shaky until it half sank into the river.
The Dongling soldiers on the boat jumped into the river one after another after firing several rounds of flying arrows.
"Shoot them!"
In the water formation in Xishu, the flying arrows were reorganized, waiting for the opportunity to be thrown forward. Many of the Dongling soldiers who jumped into the river were hit by arrows. After struggling for a while, they could no longer move until more than a hundred floating corpses appeared on the nearby river surface.
The soldiers of Xishu who fell into the water also did not escape. Some were directly hit to death by boat plows, or were stabbed into hedgehogs by flying arrows. At this time, both the enemy and ourselves, whether they are generals or soldiers, are furious and will not stop until they kill each other.
One defends and the other attacks stubbornly. There is no room for these two in the first place.
"General Kang, good news."
Kang Zhu propped himself up and was watching the battle when he suddenly heard General Pi's voice.
"What?"
"The commander of the Western Shu Navy, Dou Tong, has been killed in the battle. The men and horses in the front line have been observing for a long time, and this news should be correct!"
Listen, Kang Zhu was not as ecstatic as he imagined. For some reason, he just felt a little disappointed. There was once a list of famous generals in the world, in which he ranked tenth and Dou Tong ranked ninth.
He knew that there were no rivers in the Shunan area of Shuzhou. This former king of small Shunan relied on selling horses and medicinal materials to build an army and protect the people.
But it was precisely this kind of person who, for the great cause of Western Shu, devoted himself to Xiangjiang and became the naval commander.
"What a joy to use my strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses!"
"General Dou, a hero in the world! Although you and I are each our own masters, Kang Zhu admires you. If I don't die, I will go to your tomb in the future and pay my respects to you for three glasses of water and wine!"
Kang Zhu stood up again, his expression even more murderous.
He had sacrificed almost everything for Dongling, and he was only one step away from entering Cangzhou.
"Flag order, enter the battle as we approach Xishu, and fight immediately!"
The bloody setting sun spread across the long river. Occasionally, there are waves of carrion-eating water birds, flying anxiously from a distance.
I don’t know how many rounds I killed.
Up to now, Dongling's navy still couldn't break through the Xishu water formation. But fortunately, the Shu people's navy was about to lose its hold.
Just take some more time -
"General, general, reinforcements are coming!"
Kang Zhu, who was observing the enemy's formation, turned around in surprise when he heard this sentence. The tenacity of the Shu people had greatly exceeded his expectations.
This war cannot be delayed any longer.
"Jianglong Banner, it's my Jianglong Banner in Dongling!" Countless soldiers on the main ship shouted in joy.
"Don't be anxious. Send a small boat to find out first." Kang Zhu was not blindfolded and thought for a while before speaking.
Soon, the boat that went to investigate came back.
"General, I recognize him. He is Captain Shen from Fenglingwu in Chuzhou."
Kang Zhu breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he clenched his fist tightly.
Although there are not many naval forces rushing to help, the war has reached this point. If this new force joins forces, the time to defeat the Shu people will only become shorter and shorter.
"Flag order! Let the naval forces of Fenglingwu cooperate with the main ship and attack from the flanks! We will set foot on Cangzhou within three hours!"
As long as he sets foot in Cangzhou, things in Li Ducheng should turn around.
…
Captain Shen is a young man, about twenty-seven or eighty-years-old. Two years ago, he offended a counselor in Chuzhou and was falsely accused of being a spy for Jiang bandits. He was almost executed by Qiu Hou Wen.
It was General Miao Tong who proved his innocence.
He is moody, lustful, and sometimes deducts Fenglingwu's military pay. But these do not conflict with his desire to repay his kindness.
Turning around, Colonel Shen glanced at the direction Miao Tong left and laughed calmly.
"Why is Captain Shen laughing?" Cao Hong asked.
"I am about to do something to soothe my conscience, and I feel happy. Commander Cao also knows that if I take these brothers with me, many people will probably die."
Cao Hong nodded silently.
"I only hope that Commander Cao will see my loyalty and bravery today. When General Miao Tong enters Western Shu in the future, please help me."
"nature."
"Commander Cao, take a few of your men and take a small boat to ambush in the reed swamp over there."
"That's why."
"Because you don't know how to fight with water, you have to listen to me."
Cao Hong agreed and just took a boat to travel far away. Unexpectedly, not far from him, the navy, which was no more than a thousand people, had filled its sails again and rushed towards the water formation in Dongling.
"Donngling Fenglingwu, Colonel Shen Bai, is here to help General Kang Zhu——"
Cao Hong was startled, then turned around and found that the navy of more than a thousand people had already reached the Dongling Water Formation. At this time, Kang Zhu did not have any troops to cut off the queen.
The first warship to bear the brunt was hit by Shen Bai's stern and sank quickly into the river.
"The world is loyal and brave."
Cao Hong stood up straight, closed his eyes and cupped his hands, bowing in the direction of the more than a thousand people and bowing for a long time.
