Chapter 493: Gambling

"The direction in which the eagle flew back was different, Huo Qinglin was in the southwest corner of the Hanjiang River, and Liu Mingyan was in the southeast corner of the Hanjiang River. Moreover, the sentry eagles I sent to spy on the enemy ships on both sides are also different, so please take a look at the Great Witch God. Hunying said, pointing to the whistle eagle that stopped on his shoulder and said, "The whistle eagles sent to scout the Bihai fleet are all black feathers, and the ones sent to scout Huo Qinglin's fleet are gray feathers. ”

When Wen Lan saw it, it was indeed a gray-feathered whistle eagle.

"I see, the Eagle Whispering King is really thoughtful." Wen Lan snorted: "Just Huo Qinglin, it's just the courage of a horseman." Since he wants to die first, then let's do what he wants. Measuring the warships of his Cangwu Kingdom and the previous ones are also half a catty and eight taels, and the Blood Flame King will be the vanguard again to lure the enemy forward, and it is enough to release eight or nine of those big serpentine ships. ”

Qi Lie was a little depressed when he was listening.

He is a man who is used to charging into battle, and now he is asked to carry a giant sword and stand as a bait, which is really inconsistent with his temperament. One can't charge and the other can't move, so the blood clan became a toy in Wen Lan's hand, and used it to tease the cat and the dog.

But he also knew that if he didn't agree, Wen Lan would definitely ask him in a weird way: "Is there any better way for the Blood Flame King to break the enemy formation without losing his troops?" May I hear it. ”

No.

Seeing Qi Lie's expression, Hunying had already guessed a little bit of thought, and said with a smile: "The Blood Flame King must think that this vanguard is too boring, it is better to do this, this time I will accompany the Blood Flame King on the boat together, so that we can take a look at the enemy together." ”

Wen Lan was suspicious, if the two of them got together and were not under their noses, wouldn't they have to quietly discuss something? At a critical juncture, we must be on guard.

So he also laughed and said: "Why don't I just get on the boat together, if I really meet Huo Qinglin and have any strange tricks, I can discuss and watch it together." ”

Qi Lie still didn't speak, anyway, it's an aggrieved job, there is no difference between one person and three people, you don't like to come.

As soon as the three of them came out of the tent, suddenly there was another eagle roar in the air, and Hunying's color changed.

How could it be......

She looked up intently, and sure enough, a vigorous black eagle flew down, it was Su Xiaochen's one.

Wen Lan's sharp eyes immediately caught the unusual expression on Hunying's face.

"What? Is there something wrong with this eagle of the Eagle Whispering King? Wen Lan saw that the eagle was black all over and the eagle was plump, and asked, "This black-feathered whistle eagle is the whistle eagle of Liu Mingyan's fleet." ”

Hunying's heart tightened, but because she had just said the difference between black feather and gray feather, she couldn't deny it anymore, so she had to say a vague "um".

The eagle was obviously very affectionate when he saw Hunying, and as soon as he loosened the falcon, a small fragment of fire and thunder fell into Hunying's palm.

Wen Lan's sharp eyes had already seen it, "What is this eagle that came back?" Show it to me. ”

Hunying had no choice but to hand over the fragment of fire and thunder.

"It's ...... Fire thunder? Wen Lan flipped over the fragments and looked at them for a while, became alert, and then called:

"Gentle! When Lin Tongsheng went to Huo Qinglin's ship to investigate before, he found that there were fire mines? ”

Wen Wen thought about it, shook his head and said, "No." However, it was half a month ago that Lin Tongsheng probed Huo Qinglin's fleet, and now that things have changed, it is unknown that Huo Qinglin's ship is loaded with fire mines. ”

The more Wen Lan thought about it, the more strange it became, and she said to herself: "Huo Qinglin's ships are all troop carriers, and they don't even have many decent artillery, what do you want this fire mine to do?" Could it be that I want to ......"

Speaking of this, he suddenly laughed: "Impossible, impossible, he has a lot of people on the boat, and he can't dive or move quickly, does he want to follow our serpentine ship and hit us with fire and thunder?" ”

Seeing that Wen Lan didn't ask about Xiaoying's origin, Hunying's heart eased, and she also laughed: "That's really stupid." ”

Wen Lan beckoned, "Let's go, let's get on the boat and have a look." ”

The people marched to the shore, where Imuran's ships were lined up, waiting for orders. Hunying whispered to Qi Lie, "I don't see the eldest princess today." ”

She ...... These days, they have said that they are going to ride horses elsewhere. ”

"Accompanied by Colehan?"

"Hmm." Qi Lie was a little embarrassed, in fact, he had a rare argument with his sister before this matter. After all, the enemy is at present, and Ge Lihan is the head of the Eight Horsemen of Blood, so it is really a bit ...... to accompany his sister to ride a horse behind him instead of following him into battle Not doing business.

However, during that dispute, Qi Chuke was very arrogant.

Is it important to kill the enemy or is it important to be your own sister? The enemy is closer than your sister, isn't he? You've been killing for decades, and your sister hasn't been taken care of by you for decades, so what's wrong with Corihan who borrowed you for a few days? Besides, if he follows you into battle, he will be able to charge and kill the enemy? Aren't you just standing at the bow of the ship stupidly? Even if you stand dry, you don't want him to accompany your sister? How unreasonable are you?

Stop! Gorihan is yours!

Qi Lie immediately decided to end this topic, but he was afraid that his ears would collapse directly if he listened to it any longer.

Although Hunying didn't know the process of the dispute, she couldn't help but laugh in her stomach when she saw Qi Lie's embarrassed expression.

Here, the second elder of the Wen family had already taken the lead in getting on the boat, Wen Lan raised his cane, the war drums beat loudly throughout the river, and Imulan's ship formation began to move!

At this time, the sky gradually became overcast, and the clouds gradually gathered, revealing a gray patch. Then there was a chaotic eagle whistle from the clouds, and before everyone could understand what was coming, they saw more than a dozen sentinel eagles, large and small, flying down in unison.

Some landed on the mast, some landed beside Hunying, and some flew low and hovered incessantly, but all the whistle eagles screamed loudly in a hoarse voice, and the uneasy mood could obviously be felt even by Wen Lan, who didn't know how to taming falcons.

"What's going on?" Wen Lan saw that among the whistle eagles, some were black feathers and some were gray feathers. Could it be that the fleets on both sides are attacking at the same time?

Hunying nodded and said, "These sentry eagles should have seen the enemy ship together on the way back, so they all came together to report back." According to my speculation, the enemy ship is not far away. ”

"How is this possible? Huo Qinglin's ship would never have such a fast speed! Being able to get close to the north shore of Binzhou in such a short period of time, unless it is a serpentine ship! As soon as Wen Lan's words fell, Wen Wen had already pointed to the distance and shouted, "Brother, look! ”

Wen Lan followed the sound and saw that several black shadows lying low on the water had appeared in the distance, and the appearance of the black shadows was very familiar to him.

It's a serpentine!

Huo Qinglin's ship didn't arrive, but Liuxia's serpentine ship arrived!

Wen Lan quickly counted, one, two, three...... Seven, eight, eight dark shadows!

Sure enough, it's those Ryuksha people!

A thought suddenly flashed through Wen Lan's mind, he took out the fire and thunder fragment just now, and asked a little nervously: "Hunying, could this fire and thunder fragment from your eagle rank be from these serpentine ships?" Hunying suddenly realized, so it was.

Child, you are really scheming, you just want to confuse Wen Lan, so you deliberately let the eaglet fly over at this time, right?

Since Hunying understood Su Xiaochen's intentions, she immediately pretended to be hesitant: "Great Witch God...... This one...... It's hard to say. ”

"Didn't you say that Hei Yu was sent to spy on Liu Mingyan's fleet?" Wen Lan was obviously a little annoyed.

"Hei Yu is a good ship sent to spy on Liu Mingyan, but Liuxia's serpentine ship and Kuntou ship are often moored together, and this great witch god also knows it. There were a lot of guns on the Kuntou ship, and it was not surprising how much fire and thunder gunpowder there were. Black Feather is so titled, I can't tell whether it's from the Kuntou rank or from the serpentine rank. ”

At this time, the soldiers in front pointed to the water and shouted: "There is an enemy ship ahead!" ”

It's Huo Qinglin...... You can't go wrong!

Wen Lan could clearly see a large row of ships appearing in the distance, exactly the same as the warships of the Cangwu Kingdom before.

Wen Wen knew what his brother was worried about, if the fire and thunder were on Huo Qinglin's ship, there was no need to be afraid at all. But if it was on the serpentine ship in front of Huo Qinglin, then Imuran's current situation would be no different from the previous Wen Emperor Li Houcong.

Wen Lan's heart was already nervous.

This is obviously a gamble set up by Su Xiaochen and Zhu Zhitong, if he believes that the fire and thunder are not on the serpentine ship, then these enemy ships are tantamount to death under the crushing of their overwhelming forces. But if the fire and thunder are on the serpentine ship, then the first half of his own ship formation will definitely die with those serpentine ships.

is worthy of Mu Yunyou's high apprentice...... How dare you bet such a big chip with me!

If it was the former Mu Yun Third Taishi, it would not be surprising that he could come up with such a plan to burn the jade.

However, the indecisive Su Xiaochen, the Su You who was played with and applauded by himself, does he have the ability to make Huo Qinglin and Liuxia willing to be cannon fodder? Does he have the courage to take the plunge?!

Little cub, I'm Wenlan, I'm sure you don't!

"The whole army obeys the order, is ready to fight, and is not allowed to take a step back!"

Wen Lan's words were categorical.

At this moment, Qi Lie admired Wen Lan a little, if you want to talk about courage, this old man who seems to be a dead wood is indeed not lost to anyone.

But only for this moment.

Everyone watched nervously as the serpentine ships approached.

Everyone was muttering in their hearts, too.

The Great Witch God won't let him back down...... Is there really no fire and thunder on the serpentine ship?

The sky was even more cloudy, and the northwest wind was gradually picking up on the river, and the cold air was once again blowing towards the south.

The serpentine ship is getting closer and closer, and Huo Qinglin's ship formation is getting clearer and clearer.

Wen Lan faintly felt that her palms were already sweating.

The fire thunder must not be on the serpentine ship, it must not be there!

Suddenly, he felt as if a huge black shadow appeared in the distance, and the black shadow was hazy and familiar. However, soon, the memory of that scene in Luoxia Bay immediately tightened his nerves.

Kuntou ship!

Soon there was a commotion in Imulan's ship.

No one can remain calm at the sight of such a behemoth.

Even if the Great Witch God Wen Lan strictly ordered him not to speak in private, he couldn't stop the soldiers from talking to each other at this moment.
