The loud drums and trumpets in the upper reaches and the firelight that rushed into the sky immediately attracted the attention of the officers and soldiers who had already cleaned the battlefield and decided to return to Jiangzhou downstream, everyone turned their heads in surprise and stared at them with suspicion, and all kinds of uneasy emotions quickly spread from the soldiers, could it be that the water bandits were not defeated, they would make a comeback?

Seeing that Lin Henian was confused, Sun Tu beside him finally spoke: "Don't panic, this is the lair where the main force of my township soldiers is attacking the water bandits, presumably after this battle, this water bandit who has been in trouble on the Xunyang River for a long time will be completely annihilated." ”

"What do you say? Isn't the main force of the township soldiers here? Lin Henian was even more surprised and asked urgently. He saw with his own eyes that Sun Tu led these hundreds of township soldiers back and forth to turn the tide, this kind of combat power far exceeded the Xiang army under his command, can't it be called the main force?

"There are only 100 township soldiers here, but there, there are more than 200 township soldiers who are ready to wait, so there is the main force there." Sun Tu gave an explanation calmly, but the people around him were shocked, he thought that these 100 people were the elite of the township soldiers, but listening to him, it was the more than 300 township soldiers who were all elites!

However, at this time, Lin Dujian was more concerned about the war over there: "How could they find the thieves' lair?" As soon as the words came out, he suddenly understood: "You just made preparations for the official not to rush to pursue, you have already let people ambush in the shadows, this is a trick to capture the old man?" ”

After seeing Sun Tu nodding, the doubts in his heart increased instead of decreasing: "Why do you have this arrangement?" You already knew there would be such an outcome? As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on the other party, and his heart was filled with anger and sorrow...... It's really a mixed bag.

Sun Tu didn't make any evasion, calmly looked at him, and said calmly: "Don't hide it from the capital prison, in fact, it wasn't until just now that Xia Guan was convinced that you didn't collude with that fierce gang, so I didn't tell the truth about my whole plan before." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Lin Henian's heart tightened suddenly, but a terrible thought had come out of his heart, he was not a stupid person after all, Sun Tu had said it so clearly, he naturally guessed something. Sure enough, I only heard Sun Tu say in a calm tone: "In fact, after knowing that our official army had been defeated by the fierce Jiao gang several times, the lower officials already suspected that there were people in our official mansion who were secretly colluding with them, and promptly sent the deployment of the official army to them one step earlier, so that they could make targeted arrangements." The enemy knows me and I don't know the enemy, this is the key to your defeat to the water bandits several times. ”

"This ...... How is this possible......" Although Lin Henian said this, his blue face and slightly trembling body showed that he did agree with Sun Tu's statement.

"Otherwise, Lin Dujian had a thief in March, how could the enemy get out of it earlier and turn defeat into victory? You said at the time that the ambush troops who launched a sneak attack on you from behind came out underwater, but it seems to me that they were hiding behind our officers and soldiers early in the morning, and then found the right time to launch a sneak attack. In today's battle, in fact, they are using the same tricks, haven't you seen the problem yet? ”

Lin Henian was a little stunned, but he had to admit in his heart that according to what Sun Tu said, everything was more reasonable. The latter's words continued: "In addition, the arrangement of the bandits today proves that the lower officials did not expect it badly, they have long known that we will send troops on these two days on the island that is used as a lair, and the only one who can know this is my Jiangzhou official mansion."

"I took advantage of this, openly only led a hundred people to follow the thief, but secretly let the main force of my township soldiers wait in front, as long as the real lair of the thief is exposed, it is the best moment for us to attack it unprepared." As Sun Tu finished saying this, as if to confirm the credibility of this statement, there were already bursts of killing sounds from the upstream, obviously the villagers there had really started a confrontation with the thieves.

Looking at Lin Henian, who was still in a sluggish state, Sun Tu suddenly bent down and arched his hand: "Lin Dujian, now is the best time to eliminate this great harm for my Jiangzhou, please give me an order, the army will go to support, and give the thief a final blow!" ”

One sentence finally woke Lin Henian up completely, he immediately made a decision, turned his head and shouted to the herald beside him who was also dumbfounded by Sun Tu's explanation: "Time is running out, immediately order all ships to turn around and attack upstream, without the slightest delay!" ”

The herald was stunned for a moment, then he said yes in a loud voice, and then with the sound of drums and the turn of the flag, he turned around with the twenty-odd ships and rushed straight towards the upstream where there were already murderous sounds, which was the best and last chance for this army to redeem itself.

Seven or eight rounds of rocket projectiles have completely plunged the buildings in front of the small fishing village into a raging fire, but Yang Zhi did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and still strictly ordered all the soldiers and horses to be on standby, only waiting for the enemy to escape before attacking them: "Give me a spirit, as long as the thief shows his head, he will greet me with random arrows." The shieldmen are ready, the thieves may open the way with bows and arrows, but don't let them disrupt our defenses! ”

With a roar, all the soldiers did their duty, and none of them dared to relax. Seeing this scene, the Zhang brothers on the boat and a sturdy man with a slender body and a lot of rust on his arms and face all showed admiration: "This is what the official army should look like, but it is much stronger than those soldiers and horses in the past." ”

"Brother Li, after Jiang Jiao and them come out later, we can't weaken our momentum, and we must not let them have a chance to get out." Zhang Heng, who was full of flesh and had a short body but took a knife as tall as himself, said with murderous eyes.

"This is natural, since the gang of Jiang Jiao came to this Xunyang River, my business has been robbed by them, and this time it will naturally not make them happy." Li Jun, who is known locally as the Mixed River Dragon, suddenly narrowed his eyes as he spoke, stared at the river below and whispered, "They're here!" ”

As he deserves to be a good fighter in water warfare in the river for many years, Li Jun has already judged the enemy's movements only through the subtle changes in the river, and as he spoke, a short spear has been raised to his chest, and the Zhang brothers and other companions have also raised their weapons and put on a combat posture.

At this moment, a roar suddenly came from the entrance of the fishing village: "Kill, kill all those government minions!" Then I heard a bang, and many buildings suddenly fell and slammed into the water, and while stirring up heavy waves, several ships actually rushed out of the village with this force, and plunged straight into the official and military lines outside the village.

This assault really surprised the villagers outside the village, and while they were stunned, the thieves who rushed out quickly had already taken the lead in pouring arrows at the official army.

Yang Zhi was the one who reacted the fastest, and when he saw the arrow shooting, he shouted: "Shield!" As he shouted, he snatched a wooden shield from the hand of an obviously stunned villager beside him, and as soon as he curled up, he blocked the shield in front of him.

It wasn't until the arrows came that several soldiers fell into the water in front of them, and the others woke up like a dream, and they put up their shields to protect themselves, blocking the rest of the arrows.

But this was enough to create an opportunity for the fierce bandits behind, Jiang Shihu shouted, and ordered the remaining ten or so ships to rush forward at full speed, while releasing arrows to hinder the encirclement of the officers and soldiers, while looking for a gap, ready to kill Jiang Xin in one go.

But this time, they were no longer facing the Jiangzhou Xiang Army, which was demoralized and about to collapse, but the township soldiers who had long regarded obeying orders as their first priority after months of training. Seeing the enemy rushing towards them, they did not scatter in all directions to escape, but continued to hold their posts under Yang Zhi's scolding, and at the same time, accompanied by his roar, they shot the arrows in their hands towards the enemy ship.

After only rushing a short distance of fifty paces, more than a dozen water bandits without shields had already fallen into the water, which made their speed of rushing forward suddenly slow. And Yang Zhi also seized this opportunity and ordered loudly again: "Surround it, all the thieves are being wiped out today!" ”

As he shouted these words, the ship under his seat was already the first to crash into the enemy ship, and when the two ships were less than seven or eight feet apart, he stepped on the bow of the ship with one lunge, jumped up with all his strength, and swooped down on the thief ship that rushed at the front.

Seeing that it was too late to release any more arrows, the bandits on the boat hurriedly raised their knives and guns and beckoned to him, but they were easily blocked by Yang Zhi with the knife in his hand, and pressed them back again and again, and their fierceness was far above that of any of the combatants.

"It's really a good martial art!" Li Jun and the others, who were at the back of the team, couldn't help but cheer when they saw this, and then glanced at each other: "It's time for us to show our skills!" ”

Having said that, they did not rush to the enemy's side in a boat like an official army, but turned around one after another, jumped into the river with a slight leap, and in a moment all these men disappeared.

And Yang Zhi's heroic performance also quickly encouraged the other village soldiers, so that they completely withdrew from the tension of the first battle, shouted loudly and rushed forward, and after blocking the way of the thieves' escape, they shouted and brandished their weapons to attack the past.

Suddenly, on the river in front of this small fishing village, hundreds of people and horses on both sides of the official and thief sides, and dozens of boats were all in a mess, and while all roads were blocked, it was already difficult to distinguish between the enemy and us.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Shihu, who deliberately fell to the rear at the last moment, turned his face pale, looking at his brother who was still in a coma on the same boat, he knew that this was the most severe test for his brother and the fierce Jiao......
