Chapter 361: Battle
When the sun sets in the west, the northern foot of Fan Mountain comes alive, and countless firelights illuminate the sky, comparable to the afterglow of the western horizon. Even across Fan Mountain, you can feel the grandeur of the scene.
Cao Miao and others also entered a state of imminent formation. This is Sun Luban's first mission, if it is messed up, King Wu will be very embarrassed, and it is likely to refrigerate her for a while, and even change the plan to let her take over the trouble-relieving camp under pressure.
From now on, until King Wu returns to the palace safely, they have to make sure that there will be no problems in their defense area.
But the world is not as good as it should be, and the more you don't want to have an accident, the more you will have an accident.
As soon as it was dark, news came from the southwest direction, and some suspicious people were spotted, and then similar news came from other directions. Most of these news are miscalculations caused by excessive nervousness, and some of them belong to someone who deliberately tossed and relieved the troublesome camp, although she did not ask Sun Luban to help, but it was enough for her to stay high nervous and dare not relax in any way.
For the children of powerful people like Sun Luban, who have a starting point too high, they have no experience of starting from the bottom, and naturally they do not have the resilience that they have cultivated for a long time. Under this seemingly inconspicuous harassment, after a long time, it will be more tiring than actually going to the battlefield, and even collapse.
Before an hour, Sun Luban was going crazy, and he had to step on the war horse several times and rush to the scene to take a look, so as not to delay the fighter.
Cao Miao held her down, forced her to sit down, and let her eat some pastries to relieve her tension while analyzing the situation for her.
Nearly 10,000 elites are distributed within a radius of 20 miles, and every place where there may be a threat is as few as a hundred people, and as many as a thousand, even if they encounter a threat, it is impossible to collapse easily. The outermost cordon is ten miles away from Fan Mountain, and even if the other party is a cavalry assault, it will take less than half an hour to kill at the foot of Fan Mountain, and there will be enough reaction time.
As long as there is no massive, formed cavalry, these threats can be ignored.
Sun Luban felt reasonable, barely stabilized his mind, and swept away two plates of pastries one after another. She still wanted to eat again, but Cao Miao refused, and she even had to control the amount of water. Cao Miao told her that eating some pastries can make you relax, but eating too much will affect your mental clarity. Besides, what if you have to go to the toilet when you go into battle?
Sun Luban looked at Cao Miao in surprise. "How do you know so much?"
Cao Miao smiled. He understands this, on the one hand, through relevant training, and on the other hand, he also has years of experience in acting. Some are scenes in the play, and some are his own experience. As a non-famous actor, it is common to play supporting roles or even tricks, and often wait for a long time for a short scene, but when the protagonist wants to start, one of your supporting roles says big guy, you wait, I am urgent.
Mrs. Sun was also worried that Sun Luban would not be able to cope with this situation, so she sent someone to see her twice, and learned that Sun Luban was quite calm, so she was relieved and did not send anyone again.
With the sound of water dripping from the leaky pot, time passed slowly, and before I knew it, it was night.
At that time, news came that King Wu's building ship was coming.
As soon as she received the news, Cao Miao asked Sun Luban to go to the toilet. Sun Luban stiffened his neck and said that it was not necessary, but Cao Miao ignored her and drove her in. Sun Luban had no choice but to stay inside for a while, desperately squeezing a little.
Sun Luban had just come out of it, and the complaining had not stopped, and the real crisis had come.
Hu Zong sent news that a group of unknown numbers of people appeared in Huangniugang in the southeast, judging from the way of fighting, it looked like the bandits who had appeared before, and asked Sun Luban to prepare for reinforcements.
Huangniugang is near the river, which is the farthest point where King Wu's fleet travels downstream, and after these people occupy Huangniugang, it is possible to attack King Wu's fleet from the river. Even if it doesn't cause actual harm, it can cause unnecessary trouble.
Sun Luban jumped up when he heard this, his eyes widened. "Such a coincidence? Really? ”
Cao Miao sighed. "The order signed by Hu Du himself should not be fake, the princess should be ready for reinforcements. However, after spending so much movement, it is impossible to just harass it, it is likely to be a temptation, or a bait. ”
Sun Luban did not dare to slack off and ordered action. Zhu Ying led his troops by boat and advanced by water, and together with Sun Qing, she advanced by land.
Before leaving, Cao Miao reminded Zhu Ying that her mission was to reinforce and deal with possible bandits. If there is a threat on the river, it is not within her purview, and it is handed over to the sailors who patrol the river to avoid unnecessary casualties.
Zhu Ying agreed, got on the boat, and sailed downstream.
Cao Miao assisted Sun Luban in putting on his armor, got on the war horse, and was about to announce his departure, when Sun Luban suddenly grabbed him with a bitter face.
"Yunliang, I'm in a hurry."
"Pee on your body." Cao Miao ignored her and gestured at Sun Qing, who was waiting for an order. Sun Qing couldn't help but laugh, kicked the horse and rushed to the front. Cao Miao immediately whipped Sun Luban's buttocks, and the war horse opened its four hooves and carried Sun Luban forward to gallop.
When passing by Mrs. Sun's Chinese army, Mrs. Sun was stationed outside the Ma camp and watched Cao Miao and her party pass by. When she met Cao Miao's eyes, she nodded quietly, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she was smiling.
Cao Miao nodded in acknowledgment. He was almost certain that this time it was not a false report, either it was a thief who appeared last time, or it was a fake by Quan Da Niang.
Mrs. Sun told him that she told him the whereabouts of Quan Da Niang after the Shangshi Festival, satisfying his willingness to take revenge, indicating that she had long known the whereabouts of Quan Da Niang, but she just refused to say it. If Aunt Quan took the initiative to come to the door, she couldn't stop it, so she could only let him take revenge.
There are no female dependents in Huangniugang, only bandits, and no matter how tragic the killing is, it will not matter.
——
Zhu Ying pressed the knife and stood at the bow of the boat, his eyes patrolling back and forth on the dark river.
Liu Chen stood behind her, holding a shield in his hand, and the long knife at his waist was moved to the position where it was most convenient to draw the knife, ready to fight at any time.
The river roared, and the ten ships broke through the waves, and the shadows of the trees by the river slowly retreated. Half an hour later, the scalper hill illuminated by the firelight appeared in their field of vision. Zhu Ying pulled out his sword, raised it high, and ordered his subordinates to approach and increase their vigilance.
At this time, a Meng Chong came from the opposite side, the speed was extremely fast, the battle flag of the Jiefu Battalion was erected on the ship, and a tall figure stood on the bow of the ship, he was holding a torch, but he couldn't see his face clearly, and he could only see that the armor on his body was the style of the Jiefu Zuo Battalion.
"Is it Captain Sun Du, who was reinforced by the Chinese army?" The man shouted: "The first team of the Jiaqu of the left camp is led by Wei Meng." ”
"I'm Zhu Ying, the team leader under Captain Sun." Zhu Ying shouted: "What is the situation? ”
"Great, you're here. Those bandits attacked too fiercely, and they had already occupied the Yellow Cow Gang ......" As he spoke, the two boats approached, and they could vaguely see each other's faces, and the man at the bow of the boat suddenly shouted: "Release the arrow!" At the same time, he raised his right hand, which had been hanging down, and pulled the crossbow machine.
A little cold light, went straight to Zhu Ying's door.
"Be careful!" Liu Chen rushed to Zhu Ying's front, raised his shield, and protected Zhu Ying, then snorted, his body staggered twice, and he turned over and fell into the water. The figure flashed in the surging river and disappeared.
Zhu Ying was shocked, then his eyes turned red, he shouted, jumped up, jumped towards the boat, and stabbed him in the air.
Blood flickered, and the man planted himself in the river, stirring up a string of waves, and the head with round eyes rolled down at Zhu Ying's feet, and there were two ink characters on his face.
Wei Yu.
