Chapter 237: Water Battle Yuan Shu
Yuan Shu's army finally began to act.
Carrying most of the soldiers of Yuan's army, the boats, ships and other things that covered the sky and the sun began to go straight down the Chaohu Lake, with a clear goal - the edge pointed directly at the north shore of Jinling City.
Yuan Shu himself stood in high spirits on a huge building boat with the word "Yuan" hanging on the flag of the Chinese army of the navy, he pinched his waist with his left hand, stroked the sword with his right hand, and watched the rolling river continue to flow eastward.
What a magnificent river!
What a beautiful sunrise on the river!
At this moment, Yuan Shu didn't know why, he actually had the feeling of wanting to recite a poem.
Turning his head to look at Yan Xiang and Ji Ling who were following behind him, Yuan Shu showed a rare light smile, he waved his hand, and said to the two: "Thousands of warships are going down the river, and the geometry is leveling the Yangtze River, how spectacular this scene is." ”
Yan Xiang bowed and exclaimed, "The general is mighty!" This time led a thousand ships to open up Yangzhou, and soon it will be able to stand in the south of the Yangtze River, and the hegemony is in front of you. ”
Seeing Yan Xiang praising himself so upright, Yuan Shu expressed deep relief.
"In this situation, Yuan wants to make a poem, what do you think?"
Ji Ling laughed, gave a thumbs up and said, "The lord is so proud, how can I not go along with it?" The lord and the chest was relieved, and a certain family and Yan Xiang sang for the lord! ”
Yuan Shu nodded appreciatively at Ji Ling, and praised this reckless man rarely: "It's rare to hear you say a word." ”
Turning around, Yuan Shu cleared his throat, and opened his mouth to play: "Ah~~!" Mountains and rivers from the flow ......"
Suddenly, above the river, a big wave slammed in, hitting the side of the boat, hitting Yuan Shu's building boat up and down, left and right, swaying back and forth.
If it is replaced by an ordinary Jiangnan boatman, he will not pay attention to such ups and downs at all, and on the river, a little small wave is as commonplace as rain.
But not all of the soldiers and horses under Yuan Shu's command were mixed on the water, and many of them entered the river by boat for the first time this time.
For soldiers and tourists who are visiting by boat for the first time, this wave of criticism is almost fatal.
Ji Ling is one of them.
"Poof~~!"
The boat bumped up and down a few times, Ji Ling couldn't hold back, and suddenly felt dizzy!
He couldn't control his mouth and nose, covered his mouth, turned around and swayed to the edge of the boat, lowered his head, and vomited violently at the water of the river.
It's a pity that the little breakfast I ate just now squirted out.
The fierce generals on land got on the river boats, but at this moment they are completely useless.
Seeing Ji Ling squirting at the river with a burst of disgust, Yuan Shu's face was somewhat unbearable.
"A poem made by Yuan...... Is it that disgusting? Yuan Shu raised his hand and pointed at Ji Ling, and complained to Yan Xiang dissatisfied.
Yan Xiang grinned embarrassedly, and hurriedly persuaded Yuan Shu: "The general is too careful, General Ji doesn't know the nature of water, this is the first time to board the ship, the wind and waves are bumpy, nausea and vomiting are common, the general doesn't have to take it to heart - he is not rushing at you." ”
When Yuan Shu heard this, his mood recovered a little.
However, at this moment, Yuan Shu is no longer in the mood to continue composing poetry, and the talented Yaxing is in a trance.
It's no wonder that Yuan Shu was cautious, and finally had the desire to be a literary master, and before he could finish a sentence, he directly read a ......
Whoever it is replaced with is also choked in his heart.
It seems that being a writer really has nothing to do with him...... It's still honest to be the old business of the princes.
Yuan Shu turned his head to look at the sun and asked Yan Xiangdao, "How long is it still from Jinling City?" ”
Yan Xiang also knows nothing about water warfare.
He didn't dare to guess, so he immediately summoned the school captain Le to report to Yuan Shu.
Among the generals under Yuan Shu's command, Le is a native of Lingling County, who has been floating in the Xiangjiang River since he was a child, and is quite familiar with water, which can be regarded as a rare talent in Yuan Shu's army who can understand water warfare.
Le calculated the time, looked at the sun, roughly estimated, and said to Yuan Shu: "General, if you drive at this speed, within three days, our naval army will be able to reach Jinling City." ”
"Within three days...... Yuan Shu lowered his head and muttered for a while, and then said: "Will the Tao Chamber of Commerce send troops and horses to block our advance?" ”
Yan Xiang came up and admonished Yuan Shu: "The pottery thief is cunning and wise, we have mobilized warships from Jiujiang County, such a big movement, it is impossible for him not to send someone to find out the truth in advance, even if there are not many warships in Danyang County, but Jinling City is the pottery thief's lair after all, he will definitely do his best to send a naval army to block our attack on Jinling City." ”
After the last defeat, although Yuan Shu eased his spirit at this time, he still had some scruples about the pottery merchant, and then asked Yan Xiangdao: "The pottery thief won't get some weird things out again to encircle and suppress Yuan's army, right?" ”
Yan Xiang confidently said to Yuan Shu: "Although the lord can rest assured, no matter how wise and cunning the pottery thief is, on this big river, he can't come up with any tricks, and he thinks about it carefully, and feels that if the pottery thief wants to deal with our water army at the moment, there is only one way to do it!" ”
As soon as Yuan Shu heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "What method will the pottery thief use to deal with Yuan's army?" ”
Yan Xiang's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth provoked a sneer: "Head-to-head duel, the pottery thief has no chance of winning, the pottery thief can't win on the river, he will inevitably find a way to lure our water army to the terrain with land on both sides of the narrow river, and arrange crossbowmen on both sides of the river bank to attack the hard crossbow, seriously injuring the morale of our water army, and then take advantage of the gap to attack the water army, this is the only way for the pottery thief to defeat our army, as long as the general can be cautious and strictly guard against this, then the pottery thief will have no gap!" ”
"Good!"
I saw Yuan Shu clapping his hands heavily, praising Yan Xiang and saying: "Master Yan can think about the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy and me, and guess the thoughts of both sides, he is really a genius in the world, and the master book can be said to be my son's room!" ”
Yan Xiang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then trembled all over.
My son's room?
I, Nima, can you just say that?
Yan Xiang raised his sleeves, wiped the sweat on his head, and hurriedly admonished Yuan Shu: "General be cautious, you can't just say this!" ”
Yuan Shu laughed and said disapprovingly: "Out of my mouth, into the ears of the king, up to the sky, down to the ground, next to this, where is there anyone else?" ”
Yan Xiang glanced at the stunned Le Qi with a bystander, and Ji Ling, who was still spitting at the river, was deeply sorry......
It turns out that in the eyes of the lord, these two people are not even people.
Just when he didn't know how to answer, he saw Ji Ling, who was pale, raised his head from the edge of the boat, looked into the distance with blank eyes for a while, turned his head and asked, "General, Master Yan, what do you see those?" ”
Yuan Shu and the others immediately turned their heads to look, but saw a row of dense small and medium-sized warships on the river in the distance.
Seeing this, Yan Xiang suddenly perked up, and said hesitantly: "It's a pottery thief!" And sure enough, he came! ”
Yuan Shu unconsciously pressed the hilt of the sword on his waist with his hand, and commanded at Le: "Le, have you heard all the words of the master of Shicai Yan?" ”
Le didn't dare to be careless, and said loudly: "Back to the lord, every word, the last general will hear it clearly." ”
"Okay, just hear me clearly...... Go ahead, make proper arrangements, respond carefully, as long as you don't enter the narrow road along the river, Yuan will let you command all the water army! ”
"No!"
……
……
After receiving Yuan Shu's instructions, Le immediately ordered the herald to wave the colorful flags, command all the warships, and set up a formation to meet the attack.
On the main battle ship on the side of the potter, the potter was full of helplessness, looking at Guo Jia, who was lying on the edge of the boat, vomiting and sprinkling gold threads on the water, his eyes were full of deep helplessness.
Seasick people, how pitiful and pitiful.
"Godbrother...... You've been throwing up for almost half an hour, and if you continue like this, I'm afraid you'll have to vomit out of last night's meal...... It's almost time to slow down. ”
Guo Jia weakly raised his head from the side of the boat, and looked at the potter behind him with his eyes, his usually smart eyes were almost dilated at this moment.
"Guo is from the Central Plains!"
Guo Jia yelled at the potter sadly: "Since I was a child, I have never experienced such a big storm and turbulence...... Vomit~~! ”
The potter shook his head helplessly and said, "Although I can't bear to interrupt you to regurgitate here, Yuan Shu's warship has already set up a formation. ”
"You regurgitate! You are the sheep and cows! Although Guo Jia was weak, he still didn't forget to use his words to resist the pottery merchant: "Yuan Shu is in a position, let's just fight him, fight how we want, just don't fall too deep...... Vomit~~! ”
The potter looked worriedly at the river, opposite Yuan Shu's huge fleet, and hesitated: "It's no problem to fight, but the problem is, we can't win......
Guo Jia snorted when he heard this: "Why do you want to win?" This battle should have been lost...... After the confrontation, take advantage of the defeat of Yuan Shu's water army and lead it to the river we arranged in advance! ”
The potter was a little confused, he frowned, and said in a low voice: "Gan Ning and Zhou Tai's water army should have been the main force in the water war, but you didn't let them fight at the moment, but became a partial teacher...... Isn't this an overkill a little too much? ”
"Gross~~!" Guo Jia didn't seem to be in the mood to fight with the potter, just vomited and asked the potter wheezing: "Do you believe me?" ”
"It's okay."
"What do you mean by okay?"
"It means faith."
Guo Jia raised his head from the edge of the boat with difficulty, and said weakly: "Letter, please follow Guo's instructions, if you don't win this battle, Guo Jia's life will be taken by you!" ”
The words have come to this, and even if the potter doesn't support him anymore, he can't say anything.
The strategy of the world's ghosts, Tao believes in you this time!
"Order Xu Rong to meet the enemy with all his might, but don't go too deep!"
