Chapter 283: The pinnacle of Hou Sheng's life is here!
A few days later!
More than 30 huge warships were connected by iron cables, and they were like a continent in the water, far away against the wind!
The mighty formation made the Taihu Lake bandits in the southeast vibrate one after another.
And the Chu army and the Qin army hiding in the water bandits were all excited!
Wang Dang stood on the bow of the boat and said with great joy: "Yu, you see, the Qi army has really won the plan. ”
The leader of the Chu army sneered: "Today, we will destroy these 100,000 Qi troops and let them have no return!" ”
Yu said: "General, after the fire burns the warship, it is inevitable to fight head-on, and when the fire is together, I and the children of Taihu Lake are willing to blockade everywhere, beware of the Qi army escaping, fighting and arson, and the matter will be handed over to the general." ”
When the generals of the Chu army heard this, they also conformed to his meaning.
I'm afraid it's not appropriate to let this group of water bandits fight, and besides, this is a war feat, and it's useless for water bandits to take it.
Then they hit it off, and the generals of the Chu army gathered 20,000 soldiers of the Chu State and distributed them on twenty warships, and the southeast wind was extremely fierce at this time.
Slowly and mightily, the giant ship appeared in the place where the two armies were fighting.
Hou Sheng stood at the bow of the boat, his hands behind his back, his heart was pounding, his hands trembled a little, and when he turned around, he saw Su Zheng nodding at him calmly.
Just when there were about a hundred paces on both sides, the big ship stopped!
Eighty steps is almost the range of the bow and crossbow, plus the tailwind, it is almost a hundred steps, at this time, the range of the Qi army is less than fifty steps because of the headwind.
The generals of the Qi army also became nervous.
At this moment, Nanzi and the others all remembered what Hou Sheng said, on the other side of Taihu Lake, there must be a fire.
The lieutenants swallowed!
If this is a fire, even the big ship will not be able to escape, and 80,000 people will be buried in the fire!
This is to punish them, and it is difficult to atone for the sins of the nine clans.
However, this strategy is said by Hou Sheng, and it is Hou Sheng on the surface, but everyone knows that behind Hou Sheng is Xiang Bang, since Xiang Bang came up with this strategy, don't you know the consequences of setting fire?
Hou Sheng looked at the water bandit He Teng a hundred steps away, suppressed his frightened heart, and said loudly: "Traitor, don't surrender yet, my Qi army is coming, the iron lock is across the river, once the order is given, you will die and have no place to be buried, if you put down your sword now and apologize, I can also report to the king and spare your life!" ”
Hou Katsu's words floated to the bow of the ship opposite.
For a while, the leaders of the Taihu Lake bandit boats laughed loudly, and only one person said: "Who are you!" ”
Hou Sheng's face couldn't help but blush, and he said excitedly: "Say my name, startle you, I am the captain of Nancheng Hou Sheng!" ”
Suddenly, he walked up to the bow of the boat and said in astonishment: "It turns out that you are Hou Sheng!" The younger brother of the Empress Dowager of Qi! I have admired you for a long time, I heard that you are invincible and invincible, and you are a rare genius in the world! ”
Hou Sheng was stunned at first.
Even the generals of the Qi State were surprised. "A rare genius in the world?"
For a while, one by one looked at the back of Hou Sheng, didn't they? This guy is invincible?
Hou Sheng was also stunned, but this person had actually heard of me?
Am I so good?
Suddenly, Hou Sheng's heart also shook a few points, and said: "Since you know, don't surrender yet!" For you're right, you're right, I can spare you. ”
He smiled and said: "I heard that Gongzi is victorious for a long time, but I didn't expect that today it was Gongzi Shengqin who led the army, and the world said that Gongzi Sheng has the talent to pass through the heavens and latitudes, and I want to understand and learn to see if the rumors are true." ”
Nanzi and the lieutenants all looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion? Through heaven and earth? I'm afraid this water bandit is not crazy!
Without waiting for Hou Sheng to continue to speak.
I saw that the big boats in Taihu Lake got out of the way one after another, and more than 20 of them actually hit them head-on.
Hou Sheng was so frightened that he took a few steps back from the splint.
shouted: "Prepare to release the arrows, come on, prepare to release the arrows!" ”
At this time, the big ships of Qi were connected by iron cables, not by iron cables, and dozens of big ships were lined up in a vertical line, and the consequence of this was that the big ships could only move in one direction forever.
It is impossible to go to the trap, and it is impossible to change direction and occupy the southeast side.
For the water bandits, this is undoubtedly a great benefit, in their eyes, the Qi State is equivalent to burying their own nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses.
Once it's on fire, you can't even run.
Because it was a southeast wind, it could sweep the entire cabin, and the smoke and fire would cause chaos among the soldiers.
Seeing that the Taihu Lake bandit ship was about to approach, more than 100 crossbowmen had already appeared on these twenty big ships, and there were many people behind the crossbowmen who were fiddling with something.
Eighty steps, fifty steps, thirty steps!
Both sides are close at hand!
Suddenly, the general of the Chu army on the bandit ship suddenly shouted: "Release the arrows!" ”
At this moment, although the number of bandit ships in Taihu Lake is smaller, their purpose is to set fire to more than ten of them, and then the Qi country will be defeated!
Especially the big ship where Hou Sheng was located, he was extra taken care of by the generals of the Chu State!
"Shoot and win, shoot and win!!"
The arrows of the wind suppressed the big ship of the Qi country, and suddenly something terrible happened.
Just when the soldiers of the Qi State dodged the arrows and entered the cabin, they saw hundreds of people jumping out from behind the crossbowmen of the Chu State, all of them were lit tung oil fire barrels in their hands.
"Die, Qi Jun!!"
One by one, the fire barrels were thrown onto the plywood, and with the suppression of the arrows, no one could extinguish the fire at all, and they could only watch as more than a dozen large ships were set on fire.
Qi Jun's soul was scattered, and Hou Sheng got into the cabin with sweat on his head!
"The ship was set on fire."
Nanzi didn't know what to do at the moment, and the iron ropes were horizontal, burying himself.
Nanzi said angrily: "Hou Sheng, this is your strategy?" You regard the lives of 100,000 sons of my Qi country as child's play? ”
Now, the screams of the Qi army can be heard everywhere.
and the excited roar of the Taihu Lake bandits.
Hou Sheng looked at Su Zai, and saw that Su Zai looked relaxed, drinking tea!
Immediately replied: "I expected that the northwest wind would be hung up soon, with the help of the northwest wind, the fire will not be able to burn the ship, then I will not wait to retreat but advance, hit the thief ship, and suppress it with a bow and crossbow, the thief ship will be burned by the northwest wind and the fire, it will be a great victory!" ”
Nanzi and the other lieutenants laughed angrily.
Northwest wind, what are you kidding, you think it's winter?
People say that you have the talent to go through the heavens and latitudes, and you take it seriously.
Seeing the contemptuous eyes of the heavy responsibility, Hou Sheng was also angry, he believed in Mei Changsu, Mei Changsu said that there must be!
Hou Sheng was also aroused by the man, anyway, he died, although he was not angry, but how to say that he was also Tian Jian's uncle and the younger brother of the Queen Mother.
Then he grabbed a shield and ran out.
"Hou Sheng, don't go out!"
Nanzi said angrily: "Come on, drag him back for me!" ”
Hou Sheng came to the bow of the ship under the rain of arrows and fire, and laughed when he saw that there were also thieves attacking the ship.
He roared angrily, "You think you're going to win? I tell you, you will be defeated in an instant! The soldiers obeyed my orders and crashed into the thief ship!! ”
The bandits burst out laughing.
At this time, although the Qi army was set on fire by more than ten boats, everyone knew that it would inevitably be permeated!
Hou Sheng's clothes were all baked, but he still ignored them at the moment, and he was dead anyway!
Seeing that Hou Sheng was so brave, Qi Jun couldn't help but raise a little morale, and when Nanzi didn't give an order, he actually had a heart and crashed into it.
Suddenly, the sky suddenly cooled!
The backs of the Qi army were cold, and even the Nanzi and the captains who had been driven out noticed something was wrong.
Behind it, isn't it the Northwest!
It's a northwest wind!
One by one, they stared at the back victory in front of them like ghosts!
Although experienced generals will take advantage of the time of day, this is a foreknowledge, and it is so coincidental that it is precisely when the warship is burned.
For a while, the northwest wind blew fiercely, and the billowing smoke seemed to have reversed direction, directly facing the 20,000 troops facing the Chu State.
It's not a tailwind anymore, it's a squall!
Northwest winds that can only occur in the depths of winter!
"Boom......" There was a loud bang.
The two boats had already crashed into the Chu army's ship, and at this moment, the smoke was billowing out, much faster than the southeast wind, after all, the southeast wind was weak, and the northwest wind burst.
The smoke flew directly into the Chu army's cabin!
Because of the direction of the wind, the fire directly burned the ships of the Chu army, and at this time, it was much easier for the warships of the Qi State to control the fire.
Nanzi and Duwei went from astonishment to ecstasy!
A northwest gale sealed the victory, and Nanzi shouted wildly: "Soldiers, give me arrows!" Not a single one to stay! ”
Suddenly, Qi troops poured out of the cabin.
One by one, they opened their bows and crossbows, and shot at the ships of the Chu army inexplicably with resentment.
Now, they're tailwinds, and not regular tailwinds!
On the other hand, the Chu army, yes, on these twenty ships, only the Chu army!
Those Taihu water bandits were watching from behind them, and they were all stupid.
Even Yu and Teng were stunned.
You must know that they got Wuhou's Northwest Wind plan ten days ago, so coincidental and accurate!
It is said that this is the time, and this is the time.
Even as the 10,000 soldiers of the Qin army, they were not weak, because in front of them, the big ships of the Chu army had already been ignited by the Qi army.
Arrows, smoke.
screamed, and the corpses fell into the water of Taihu Lake!
Hou Sheng looked at everything in front of him in surprise, and shouted: "Northwest wind, northwest wind, have you seen it, I said there is a northwest wind!" ”
The soldiers' eyes changed when they looked at Hou Sheng, this is simply a ghost-like method!
Nanzi quickly came to Hou Sheng, personally helped him up, and said, "Gongzi Sheng, I misunderstood you, it was the general's fault!" You're a great talent. ”
The remnants of the Chu army began to run.
However, the northwest wind was too strong, and the generals of the Chu army were all dead, and said: "Run, run, the Qi army is a chain of irons, and it can't be pursued, run!" ”
Wang Dang was stunned, the Chu army was defeated!
As for them, the only way now is to escape.
He suddenly appeared at the bow of the ship and said, "Brother, give me arrows, don't let them get close, once they get close, we will all die and have no place to be buried!" ”
You know, it's a northwest gale right now, and once those big ships get closer, it's okay!?
Wang Dang stopped him, but when he saw the tragic situation of the Chu State, he immediately swallowed the words that came out of his mouth, and said: "Big boss, these Chu troops were not killed by us, but by the Qi State." ”
Wang Dang understood.
In contrast, his own life is important, and if these ships are close, he will die!
Suddenly, his heart turned and said: "Shoot the arrows and kill them all!" ”
In the eyes of the generals of the Qi State, the remnants of the horses who were about to flee were actually shot by the Taihu Lake bandits in the southeast.
Even if the soldiers of the Chu State reacted and jumped into the river, they would never be able to get around the huge Taihu Lake and the joint attack on both sides!
The army of Chu is equivalent to being wrapped up by Qin and Qi!
The 20,000 horses of the Chu State were like moths to a fire, and they were buried one after another, Nanzi was puzzled, looked at Hou Sheng and asked, "Hou Sheng, what is this?" ”
Hou Sheng didn't know what was going on.
Immediately set his eyes on Su Zheng, who walked out slowly, and said, "Xiangbang, what is the situation, what should I do next?" ”
Su Zai smiled and said: "Gongzi Sheng has insight into yin and yang, so that these bandits in the Chu State have seen Gongzi Sheng's methods, therefore, they are impressed, it is to help Gongzi Sheng to kill these water bandits who set fire, in terms of their true appearance, Gongzi Sheng might as well go and surrender, or have a harvest." ”
