Chapter 188: Making Up for the Dead
It's not too late to make amends--------- "Warring States Policy"
It is said that the Hao Pu team detected the location of the Jingzhou naval army, and the Zulang team detected that the Baling guard general was Huang Zhong's general Sun Da. Chen Long immediately formed a plan in his mind, the so-called remedy, it is not too late, since he got the opportunity to disrupt Zhang Yun's strategic plan, how could he miss it?
The so-called art master is bold, and the plan formulated by Chen Long is, of course, centered on his own actions and based on his own light skills. Even though he was busy with military affairs every day, Chen Long's internal and external exercises were still improving every day, and they all had to thank the Peiyuan solid book that he got by chance, and he practiced the group rest gong independently.
Chen Long's internal strength is still in the second realm of group rest gong, and his fist power and light skill still maintain an inherent level, but the cultivation of external strength has become mellow and mature day by day, especially in the millions of troops who have fought several times, and the means of saving lives are more direct and practical. Just to hide his identity, he has not used his gentian bright silver treasure spear, and I don't know if my ultimate ability can surpass Lu Bu's level.
While walking, thinking about it, in the dark night before the early morning, Chen Long and his party came to the city of Baling. Sun Da waited at the city gate early, and after confirming his identity, he let everyone enter the city, and Chen Long ordered dozens of people to tie up Tang Zhou and follow the people arranged by Sun Da to rest; There were dozens of people left, all of whom were outstanding, and then asked Sun Dadao: "Is there any fire oil for defending the city?" ”
Sun Da was busy ordering people to move, although the materials for defending the city were insufficient, dozens of barrels of fire oil were still available. Chen Long prepared hundreds of empty jars of wine, filled them with fire oil, and sealed them with yellow mud.
Dozens of people each had two jars of fire oil, several torches on their backs, led by Chen Long and Lu Chang, and divided into two teams to enter the east bank of the Xiangjiang River. In the distance, a huge black shadow could be seen on the opposite shore, and only a few patrolmen's torches flashed in the pre-dawn darkness.
Chen Long and the others hid on the shore, and before entering the water, Chen Long basically made a rough allocation of the area of the boat that each person was responsible for igniting. The target of Chen Long and Lu Chang was naturally the largest building ship.
Swimming in the middle of the night is a subject of daily training for special forces, and it is naturally difficult for Chen Long's troops. Chen Long finally ordered: "After the ship in charge of me catches fire, return to Baling immediately, and do not help anyone else, including me, do you understand?" This is an order and must be followed. "The creed of the special forces, protect yourself, this Chen Long asked them to abide by tonight.
In the dark night and water, the team members gradually dispersed, and only the sound of rushing water was heard. Chen Long used his internal strength, and suddenly he saw the bottom of the big ship, and he came out of the shadows, and saw Lu Chang climbing up along the side of another ship, and two hot oil jars were hanging on both sides, accidentally knocking on the hull of the ship, making a loud sound, and Lu Chang immediately clinged to the side of the ship and did not move.
Chen Long hurriedly took out the crossbow arrow in his arms, and sure enough, a torch was revealed on the ship, and then several heads stretched out, fortunately
Lu Chang was still in the arc of the bottom of the boat, and those people looked at it for a long time without finding it, and turned around and disappeared. Long Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, if people found out that someone had secretly attacked, then I am afraid that the task of burning the ship would be difficult to achieve, at most one or two ships would be burned.
Lu Chang fastened the oil jar behind his back and continued to use the dagger to crawl up the gaps and potholes in the hull. At this time, the special forces had already swam to the bottom of the ship that was scheduled to be attacked, Chen Long saw more and more team members, began to climb to the deck, and he didn't wait any longer, found the anchor chain of the building ship in the dark, and climbed directly along the anchor chain to the stern of the ship.
Entering along the tail end of the anchor chain, Chen Long carefully observed, and saw that there were two observation posts at the height of the ship, about ten meters apart, and there were patrolmen holding torches in the front, middle and back, if he wanted to sprinkle the fire oil on the cockpit along the deck, I am afraid it would be difficult not to be discovered. Chen Longyi was bold, and when he saw that the two sentries at the tail hatch were holding torches, he had an idea.
Chen Long turned out the folding crossbow arrow in his hand, and directly got on the two small crossbows, only to hear two pops, and the two guards guarding the back warehouse were hit by arrows in their throats, and they fell to the ground without saying a word. Chen Long's figure had already followed the crossbow arrows, he stretched out his hand to catch the torch that was about to fall to the ground, resisted the two people who fell to the ground with his body, and gently put them on the ground, the whole process was silent.
Chen Long had a torch in his hand, jumped up, pulled up a height of more than ten meters, and rolled up to the first secret post on the sail high like a dragon, the guard was completely defenseless, and suddenly there was an extra fire oil jar in his arms, and Chen Long kicked off the high tree, and also inserted a lit torch in his vest.
When the guard flew down, Long Chen did not hesitate, and used the power of the counterattack to fold his body, and he had already crossed the space of more than ten meters, attacking the high-altitude sentry on another high pillar. The sentry was shouting a warning as he raised his bow and arrows to attack the attacker, when suddenly a flower in front of him saw that one of the bowl-sized knees was already in front of him, and then there was a hysterical pain at the junction of his nose and eyes, and he fell limply on the small fence of the sail.
Chen Long stunned another high-altitude sentry with one knee, and then he heard the first sentry fall on the deck, only to hear a loud bang, the oil jar exploded, splashing more than half a meter high of fire oil, the soldier was behind the lit torch, and it became a huge moving torch, before he was out of breath, he screamed and rushed around, instantly igniting more ropes and other applications, and finally screamed and poured into the next deck, silent.
Chen Long saw that the fire had begun to spread on the deck, and soldiers began to rush out of the front cabin door, and the personnel were chaotic, some people shouted for fire, and some people were ready to jump off the ship to escape, and for a while, more and more people gathered outside the fire. Chen Long quickly lit all the torches behind him, and threw the remaining jar of oil into the crowd, and finally five or six burning torches.
The oil jar flew towards the people with Chen Long's internal force, and no one paid attention to the falling objects in the air in the chaos, only heard a bang, and the fire oil splashed away in the middle of the people, and the torches were inserted into the deck like sharp arrows, and the fire suddenly unfolded, quickly enveloping the figures of those soldiers.
Chen Long sighed secretly, remembering that when Zhuge burned the rattan armor, he also sighed that he had violated the harmony of heaven. It's a pity that for the sake of the people's peace and happiness as soon as possible, although Chen Long can't bear to look at it anymore, he can only comfort himself like this.
The sound of the explosion of the oil jar was also heard from the neighboring ship, and then the fire gradually lit up from the other ships, Chen Long looked from a high place, and saw that fireworks seemed to be blooming on all sides, and the scenery was absolutely beautiful, but unfortunately it was a beautiful scenery made of blood. Knowing that Zhang Yun's water army is over, although this battle is not as good as Zhou Lang's burning of Chibi, it is also a ruin.
The fire gradually rolled up the sail, Chen Long no longer stayed, a wisp of green smoke fell into the Xiangshui from a high altitude, surrounded by fire and charred wood chips, occasionally a charred corpse floated by, and the figure of fire continued to fall from the heights, plopping and falling into the Xiangjiang River.
Chen Long cursed the cruelty of the war in his heart, quickly swam across the Xiangjiang River, returned to the head of Baling City, ignored Sun Da's request to ask the lord to rest, wiped the water and insisted on waiting for his team to return at the head of the city.
The sky is not yet bright, the city head looks far away, Xiangshui is a fiery red, dyed red in the sky. By the time it was dawn, all of Chen Long's team members had returned safely, and seeing that the lord's expression was not good, they all stood behind Chen Long at the head of the city, staring at the direction of the Xiangjiang River with the lord.
Chen Long's face turned red, and he finally opened his mouth and said, "Prepare a boat!" Come back with me, children! ”
Sun Da quickly ordered a thousand infantry, carried more than a dozen small boats, and set off with Chen Long himself. The hills on the shore are clearly visible, and sure enough, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and it is no longer the silhouette of last night. Everyone entered the jungle and looked down the river, only to see a black and gray remnant of a ship on the opposite shore, which looked like a ghost domain.
The intact ships on the opposite side are gone, and I don't know if Zhang Yun has retreated with the remnants of his army, or if they have all been burned. Chen Long ordered the boat to be put down, and more than a dozen small boats crossed the Xiangshui along the river and came to the broken boards.
Everywhere the corpses on the water, everyone sighed. There were not many valuable things on the battlefield, but Chen Long still ordered people to search carefully, hoping to get some clues about the collusion between the Yizhou soldiers and the Jingzhou soldiers. If there is any realistic evidence to prove his conjecture, he will have good reasons to change his planned strategy of attacking Gangneung.
It's a pity that nothing was found in the ruins, but a lot of weapons and supplies were salvaged, and Chen Longling sent them to the other side and handed them over to Sun Da's troops to deal with. Chen Long couldn't imagine that Zhang Yun would retreat so neatly, and he couldn't help but be a little impressed by this opponent.
Chen Longyou looked around and saw some traces of camping on the shore, so he quickly flew to the opposite shore and checked the remaining traces. There were no clues at the scene, only a few messy footprints.
Chen Long wanted to return to the ship, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, although those footprints were messy, many of them led to the shore to board the boat, and some of them went to the northern bushes, is there no intact boat? It's almost impossible.
The ships may have burned a lot, but the 40,000-strong naval army burned at most half of the warships, how could there be 30,000 people left, either the remaining ships were full, or they were ...... Jang Yun left a troop to hide here.
Chen Long was not surprised, he was worried that he could not find traces and evidence of the Yizhou soldiers, since Zhang Yun dared to stay in the reconnaissance troops, he just left himself a living mouth to verify this matter.
After returning to the city, all the special combat team members immediately took a boat and took Tang Zhou back to Changsha, informing Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and the two military divisions of their conjectures, and immediately sent someone to inform Xi Zhicai to re-investigate Jiangling, and then formulate a Jingzhou strategy based on new discoveries.
After everyone retreated, only Chen Long and Lu Chang were left on the scene. In Chen Long's heart, the pride of the two of them fighting together in Luoyang that day rose again, and said loudly to Lu Chang: "Deputy Division Commander Lu, come with me!" ”
One general and one handsome, one tall and one short, two figures, are also brothers in life and death, and the same swift light skills have jumped into the jungle and disappeared. Only a pile of broken masts remained, floating on the quietly flowing Hunan water, as if it had remained unchanged for thousands of years.
