Chapter 120: The Sound of a Bowstring
This general ordered to go down to greet the Hebei fleet. At this time, there was a person on the bow of the leaky boat on the shore who showed his head and shouted: "Is General Quan Rou here?" Can you come out and see it? ”
The general walked to the edge of the water village, and just heard the shouting of the man from the Hebei grain boat, and suddenly complained in his heart, secretly scolding the Hebei Yuan family for relying on the power and not talking about the number of greeting gifts. However, he still replied loudly: "I am Quan Rou......"
His words came to an abrupt end, and the "subordinate general so-and-so" in the back had no chance to say it. Because he's got an arrow in the head!
The person who shoots the arrow is the one who spoke to him before. I don't know when, he already has a longbow in his hand, and his left hand is on the string.
This is just the beginning!
As this all-soft general fell from the water village with his eyes open, the two giant grain ships that were about to dock stood up in unison, two or three rows of crossbowmen, arrows on the string, and they shot flat!
The soldiers of the Quan Rou Division, who were busy coordinating the boats in the water village, were shot over in an instant, and many soldiers fell directly into the river after being shot by strong bows and crossbows at close range. Niuzhu Water Village suddenly had a sound of dumplings falling and falling.
Even Quan Rou, who had been looking down on the stone mountain, never expected that these two unarmed grain ships, which looked really harmless to people and animals, would hide hundreds of archers with strong bows and crossbows!
It all happened so suddenly, and it was too bizarre. Quan Rou was on top of the stone mountain, and looked down and saw a lot of hay on the boat. It's just that Quan Rou only thinks that these hayes are always carried by grain ships to prevent wind and rain and absorb moisture, but he didn't expect that under this hay, there are deadly arrows!
At this moment, Quan Rou's first reaction was "The water thief is coming!" ”
Because there is no reasonable explanation for the situation at this moment, except for the attack and plundering of water thieves! Quan Rou's status is also Sun Wu's middle and high-level generals, and he knows that neither Yuan Shao nor Zhang Xiu has any motive to attack Niu Zhu and Sun Wu to start a war. Although Yuan Shao's strength is unique in the world, he is really beyond the reach of Jiangdong. As for Zhang Xiu, he was an important ally in attacking Jingzhou with the major general, how could he attack Niuzhu?
However, in the Yangtze River waterway, which water thief force is strong enough to hijack the Hebei fleet escorted by a good naval warship? I heard that in order to win over Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei, Yuan Shao requisitioned all the water ships in Hebei to carry grain. and dispatched the Hebei Navy Division to escort the attack of the Haikou in the coastal area of Qingxu. Its strength is not at all matched by the informal sailors.
There was no time to think about the situation, and Quan Rou, who regarded the attacker as a disguised water thief, immediately ordered his subordinates to enter their respective battle positions and defend themselves.
For Niu Zhu, the first key point in Jiangdong, Sun Wu has invested a lot of manpower and material resources. On the one hand, a water port was expanded at the river bay to facilitate the docking of ships; On the other hand, a long-term water village was built along the coast to moor warships, which was also convenient to control the river.
If it weren't for the fact that the Sun clan had just become the ruler of Jiangdong, there would be no surplus money and food, and Sun Ce would have planned to build a city in Niuzhu. Because the topography of Niuzhu is too good and too critical, it is at the turn of the Yangtze River!
The river in the middle reaches from the south to the north collides with the quarry rock mountain here, and then turns to the east. Behind the quarry rock is Niuzhu Beach, which has a natural sheltered river bay. If the city is built along the mountain and Baowan, it can be used as a water village boat camp and monopolize the river. If you retreat, you can stick to the mountain, and rely on a strong bow and a hard crossbow to keep the military warehouse and water village on the back of the mountain!
But this time, the attackers clearly did not give the Niuzhu defenders a chance to fight in the water. The two "leaky boats" that sailed into the Jiangwan Water Village seemed random, but they were stuck in the waterway of the Water Village, and did not give the Dongwu ships moored in the Jiangwan a chance to leave the port.
Not only did they not give Niuzhu a chance to sail a boat, but the attackers also did not give Quan Rou a chance to defend himself on the mountain. While the archers pushed aside the hay to cover the camouflage and shoot arrows, countless capable soldiers carrying planks rushed out of the hatches of the cabins of the two large grain ships, and under the strong cover of the archers, they put the planks on the ships and the water wall that were about to dock, and then rushed up the water village from the wooden planks with short soldiers without fear of death.
It's obviously organized and premeditated!
Seeing the two large grain ships coming out of the cabins, no less than hundreds of strong soldiers with short soldiers in their hands, rushing to their own water village with hundreds of half-human-wide planks, and starting to kill their own soldiers, Quan Rou broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and his legs were actually a little weak.
Where are these two grain ships with too deep drafts because of leaky ships, obviously they are warships with thousands of soldiers and deep drafts!
Quan Rou, who finally came back to her senses, pulled out half of her saber and inserted it back in. Because it was just a face, hundreds of sailors and guards on the Niuzhu Water Village had been killed by extremely fierce attackers!
There was a hundred-man team stationed on the rocky mountain, but all of them were crossbowmen. In the case that the water village on the river bank was breached, and there was no melee foot to cover, it was absolutely invincible to attack these hundreds of light soldiers. Besides, Niu Zhu was actually attacked from the inside, and the hundred archers on the stone mountain were used to deter the river, who would have thought that he would kill the foot soldiers at the foot of the mountain behind him.
Even if it is condescending, it can still cause damage. But Jeon Rou thinks it's useless. Because nearly 1,000 Hebei water boats cruising on the outer river of Niuzhu have now pressed close to the quarry rock and Niuzhu beach. If these ships also had soldiers on board, then choosing to defend the rocky mountain would be in a desperate situation surrounded on all sides!
But if he retreats, although he still has 3,000 troops and horses in the rear battalion to mobilize. But after carefully estimating the attackers' fierce combat power, Quan Rou gave up the idea of continuing to fight for Niu Nagisa.
Who the attacker is has already come out, and it is a force that Quan Rou has ignored - Huainan Zhang Xiu!
From the moment of the attack, all Hebei ships had countless "Zhang" flags on them, in addition to the Yuan-shaped flag. It was the flag that was displayed on behalf of the army's subordinates when Sergeant Zhang Xiu, who was hiding in the cabin, got out of the cabin and stood on the deck to prepare for battle.
Why is Zhang Xiu beating Niu Zhu? Why did Zhang Xiu attack Niu Zhu?
These are no longer things that Quan Rou can think of. Seeing that the decks of nearly a thousand Hebei grain ships on the river were full of soldiers dressed as Zhang Xiujun at this moment, Quan Rou let go of all her thoughts at this moment!
……
At the northern foot of Lushan Mountain, Sun Ce, who was stationed on the horse, listened to the answer of the foot soldier, and suddenly changed from a pleasant face to a frosty and cold face, and shouted loudly: "You are not Han Dang's soldiers, I know Han Dang's soldiers, and I have never seen the three of you!" Who the hell are you? ”
At this time, the three foot soldiers with guns and bows had already walked within ten steps of Sun Ce, and when they saw Sun Ce's face change abruptly, they spoke in a questioning tone. The three of them all showed panicked looks on their faces, and for a while, they actually touched the strong bow on their backs!
Sun Ce, who originally had the idea of joking, suddenly reacted to the fact that the three foot soldiers in front of him were not simple, and his frightened expression did not become more trembling after being coldly drunk by himself, but it became panicked! Although there is only one word difference between panic and panic, the meaning behind it is very different!
These three people have ghosts!
Originally, the little overlord Sun Bofu, who was going to scare these three foot soldiers, had a clear eye and a faster hand. When these three foot soldiers just showed the panicked looks that they would only show when they were recognized, they had already clenched the strong bow in their hands with their left hand and touched the feather arrow with their right hand!
This instantaneous reaction happened to be made at the same time as the action of the three foot soldiers touching the bow and arrow on their backs!
How did the three foot soldiers who disguised themselves as Sun Ce's generals know that Sun Ce's cold shout and questioning were actually just a joke. Sun Ce implemented the world military system and gave his subordinates a high degree of autonomy. On the one hand, he repaid Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and others, the old generals of his father Sun Jian, who supported the resurgence of the Sun family, so that these people gained military power in Jiangdong, and while thanking these hardcore veterans, he also continued to win over these veterans who were the backbone of the Sun military group.
On the other hand, he also used the world military system to win over the Jiangdong family and the powerful and establish the foundation of Sun's rule in Jiangdong!
From the very beginning, the world military system had a strong private character. Han Dang was assigned to the subordinate subordinate of the original Sun Ce, so it is not an exaggeration for Sun Ce to say that he is familiar with Han Dang's subordinates. However, in the process of conquering Jiangdong, Han Dang and Cheng Pu were assigned a lot of surrender and prisoners in the trilogy of veterans, so Sun Ce said that he knew all Han Dang's subordinates, which was really an exaggeration.
But these three foot soldiers were not originally from Jiangdong, let alone Sun Ce Handang's subordinates. Where can it be clear whether Sun Ce is joking or not. Under Sun Ce's sudden change of face, there was a ghost in their hearts, and their first reaction was naturally panic, and then the subconscious made them act directly!
How did Sun Ce, who was beating crookedly, know that the three foot soldiers in front of him wearing self-army uniforms and holding self-army guns and bows were really not his own soldiers. In Sun Ce's subconscious, how could there be enemies near his own territory and his own military camp? I always go around the local barracks, how can anyone dare to wander around their own barracks?
Also, inside the deeper subconscious. Sun Ce himself really regards himself as a person with a legacy, and he really treats himself as a little bully! This can be seen in his frequent solo travels and taking risks.
In the earliest days, when he was still obeying orders under Yuan Shu's account, Sun Ce did not hesitate to take the risk of recruiting soldiers in the Danyang Mountains in order to recruit elite soldiers. was attacked by Zu Ying, the marshal of Jing County, and Sun Ce himself and his younger brother Sun Quan almost died at the hands of a group of thieves led by Zu Xun. In the end, it was to no avail.
Because of this incident, Zu Xun and Sun Ce formed a grudge. Sun Ce, who was young and unconvinced, took his uncle Wu Jing's soldiers and horses to fight Zu Ying, but he was surrounded by Zu Ying, if it weren't for Cheng Pu and others, otherwise Sun Ce would have to hang.
Since then, the mortal enmity between Sun Ce and Zu Xun has been concluded.
Let's talk about the confrontation between Sun Ce, who was stationed in the horse, and the three unidentified people who were only ten paces away in front of him.
Fang just said that Sun Ce has a clear eye and a quick hand. grabbed a feather arrow in front of the three people opposite, and shot an arrow!
The arrow was powerful and accurate, and it immediately hit the chest of the man in the middle, who seemed to be the leader. The man was shot and fell to the ground, but he did not make a sound or scream.
The two people next to him had already turned the arrow at each other, but their panicked expressions dissipated a lot, and they didn't even glance at their companion who fell to the ground with an arrow in a muffled snort. It's just a matter of concentration and skill, taking off the strong bow on his back and aiming with his arrows.
The two of them were riding arrows, and Sun Ce was also taking arrows and stringing. To be honest, Sun Ce has always pursued strength and accuracy in archery, and does not require much speed. The coherent action of pulling the bow and aiming at the radiation is actually not as fast as any of the three people in front of him. It's just that just now because Sun Ce was hunting, he had a bow in his hand, and he could shoot arrows. And these three people were holding guns and carrying bows from the beginning, and they had to take off the strong bow first when shooting at each other, so naturally they were not as fast as Sun Ce. Therefore, it is not surprising that one person was shot first.
At this time, Sun Ce was about to shoot the second arrow, but one of the two people who was still standing in front of him shot an arrow first!
This arrow shot very quickly, although he still held a spear in his left hand, this man took off the strong bow on his back as if it had no effect, and the wide left hand held the spear and strong bow together, and the right hand shot with an arrow, so fast that he couldn't even see if he had the steps to aim in the middle!
But this arrow hit, it hit Sun Ce, and it was the key point of the person - the face door!
