Ten divers ran like unleashed horses towards the river.

When I got to the river, I saw them quietly burrowing into the water one by one. At the end, the soldier who couldn't dive was still hesitating, but he was pulled into the water by Lao Jiuyi, pressed his head, and led him to deep water.

Suddenly, someone on the Qin army's river warship defense line exclaimed: "Oh no, someone has gone into the water, and there are people underwater." As the voice fell, locust-like arrows shot towards the surface of the water on the opposite shore of the Qin army.

Seeing this, Xiao Bu ordered the soldiers who had long been hidden on the side to launch a fangong. The arrows on the shore shot at the Qin warship from the side, and the Qin soldiers were knocked unconscious. They immediately turned their bows and arrows and shot aimlessly at the surface of the river, and the innocent white fish swimming on it floated up with arrows.

After a while, the diving soldiers had already passed through the Qin army's warship defense line, and the Chu army on the flank, after learning about it, began to shoot torches at the enemy ships. One by one, the burning fireballs fell on the ship, and although there were soldiers to put them out, they still crackled and burned rapidly under the action of the wind. The generals of the Qin army shouted and shouted to put out the fire, but some soldiers "plopped and p......ounced" and jumped straight into the water.

The vanguard fleet led by Liu Huaibei was caught in flames by the Qin army's warships.

He hurriedly ordered his soldiers to line up along the Qin ships on the outer line of the Qin army's defense, and used a long penny to push away the burning boats, and then replaced them with Chu ships.

It didn't take long for the Qin army's warship defense line to be replaced, but it was counterattacked by the soldiers on the fireboat. They also followed the example of the Chu army and shot at them with fiery arrows, which caught Liu Huaibei off guard. He hurriedly ordered: "The sailors go into the water, climb on the Qin ship, and take over their ships completely." ”

Liu Huaibei took the lead in stepping on the Qin ship, grabbed a live mouth, and interrogated: "Tell me quickly, what is your action password tonight?" ”

The Qin soldier was already so frightened that he peed his pants and stammered: "Our password is that the person who comes shouts 'Wushan Yun' and answers 'Goddess Rain'." ”

"That's it, yes?" Liu Huaibei was afraid that he would be fooled, so he reminded again, "If there is a slight mistake, it will be killed immediately." ”

Qin Bing raised his hand and said, "Yes, yes." To prove his honesty, he shouted at Qin Chuan, "Wu Shanyun." ”

The response of the "goddess rain" can be heard immediately.

In this way, Liu Huaibei learned to shout such a password to every ship, and those Qin soldiers no longer resisted.

But before they could catch their breath, they suddenly crackled from the bank of the Wushan City River...... Crackling...... There was a wild bang.

Liu Huaibei looked up and saw that he didn't know how many soldiers were laying bamboo rafts into the water. After the bamboo row is spread into the water, it is like a pontoon bridge. He was followed by soldiers with bows and arrows.

"Oh no, the enemy has discovered our tactics of picking flowers and moving trees." Liu Huaibei hurriedly ordered the soldiers on the warship to resist, and swore, "Brothers, the situation is critical and changeable, but everyone must resist, and we must not let the enemy re-board our warship, we must resist until General Zhuang's large army comes." ”

Zhuang Ji hid the warship in the creek during the day, and lurked on the bank of the Wuxi River himself, but he didn't expect to meet Xiaobu. After knowing Xiao Bu's situation, a smile appeared on his face.

Back on the ship, he ordered his soldiers to dress up half of the ship as a ragged civilian ship.

The soldiers did not understand and questioned: "Why do you want a good warship to act like a defeated civilian ship?" If Qin Jun knows about this, won't he laugh at our poor Chu country and Chu Jun's misfortune? ”

Zhuang Ji did not squeak. He carefully examined the ships, pointed to the mast of one of them, and said, "There is some grass and ash on it, and some arrow wounds on the side of the ship." ”

"Oh, didn't that ruin your own good ship? I really can't do it. "It's a pity for a soldier.

Zhuang Ji explained: "Good ship? A good ship won't go to war? Can keeping a good ship lead to victory in recovering the homeland? You have to think about it, a warship is for war, and if you want to fight, it will definitely get hurt. It is better for us to let the enemy hurt it, than to call it a little wounded on the surface first. ”

"Strange theory, strange theory." One of the soldiers whispered to his companion.

Zhuang Ji said to a small general: "When the camouflage is ready, send a small boat to the south bank, quietly find Zhong Yitong, and we will act together." ”

"Report—" The Qin army intelligence officer ran and shouted to Sima Cuo's combat residence, and said hurriedly, "Report to General Sima, the latest news from our army's secret agents, and find that the Chu army has a large fleet of ships assembled, and may sail to Wushan at night. ”

Sima Cuo said suspiciously: "No, the information provided by a catty of water is consistent with last night's reconnaissance and today's reconnaissance, how could a large number of Chu army fleets suddenly appear?" He pointed to the visitor and asked sharply, "You dare to make sure that the information is not wrong?" ”

The soldier who came to report affirmed: "Report to the general, please rest assured that this information is absolutely reliable." ”

Sima said to himself: "So, the information obtained by a pound of water is a smoke screen deliberately put by Zhuang Ji, and there is water?" Well, it can't be, it can't be. He again denied his own judgment.

The soldier who came to report said again: "General, there is also intelligence that most of the secret sentinels laid by our army on the north and south banks were killed by the Chu army, which is the main reason why the Chu army was able to smoothly penetrate into Wushan and burn our defensive warships. Now, there is no way to get the intelligence on the Chu border, please rule on the general. ”

Sima Coo turned his head, the muscles on his face were also twisted, and he said as if he was going to eat people: "Why did you report such important information now?" Even the secret whistle on the south bank of the river has been taken down? It can be seen that the Chu army is already pervasive. ”

The muscles on his face trembled in anger, and he suddenly drew a long sword and stabbed the soldier who came to him, saying, "Fuck you, a bunch of rice buckets." ”

Then, he threw his long sword to the ground, raised his two clenched fists in front of his eyes, gritted his teeth, and said, "Even the secret sentry on my south bank will not be spared, you are a good Zhuang Ji, I will make you die without a place to be buried!" ”

When Deng Jiehou saw this bloody scene, his heart couldn't help but tremble, he forced the panic, stepped forward and said respectfully: "General Sima, what should we do?" ”

Sima thought for a moment, and said proudly: "Our opponent is Zhuang Ji, who was once regarded as a traitor by the Chu State, what does this mean?"

Deng Jiehou shook his head and said he didn't know.

The corners of Sima Cuo's mouth were slightly raised, and then he said: "Chu State used a traitor to become the general of the Western Expedition, which shows that he is not ordinary, Zhuang Ji is an extraordinary general, so we have to treat him with unusual tactics." Strategic contempt is not the same as tactical sloppiness. ”

Deng Jiehou "snapped" his legs together and saluted Sima Cuo with a solemn military salute and said, "Yes, the subordinate is willing to listen to the general's instructions." ”

Sima said with a strange face: "This time, General Ben will personally go along the river, inspect our defensive line, look for strategic points, and it is best to wipe out the Chu army in the lower reaches of the river beyond Wushan." ”

"General Sima, it is very dangerous for you to personally inspect the battlefield downstream, it is reported that there are often Chu troops there, so it is better to send a small detachment to reconnoiter first." Deng Jiehou reminded worriedly.

"Huh? Do you really think so? Sima Cuo said disdainfully, "As a general of Qiang Qin, he doesn't even have the courage to go to the front line, and he is still afraid of this and that, is he still worthy of commanding this powerful army?" ”

Deng Jiehou smiled and said: "What the general said is extremely true, I am just worried about the general." Otherwise, I will send more soldiers and generals to accompany me, so that nothing goes wrong. ”

Sima Cuo said approvingly: "Well, you have to pick some capable ones." This time it must be done, even if General Ben goes under Zhuang Ji's nose, he can't find out. ”

"Okay, yes, the subordinates will implement it." After Deng Jiehou finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Sima Coo looked at Deng Jiehou's back, touched the back of his head with his hand, and shouted in the direction Deng Jiehou was walking: "Hey, pass a pound of water, I want to verify the information with him again." ”

Deng Jiehou turned his head and responded, "Yes." ”

Since the Qin army detective left the Chu army, because of the important information obtained, Sima Cuo has always kept him by his side. After listening to Deng Jiehou's order, he thought that Sima Cuo was going to arrange a new task for him, so he came to Sima Cuo's office tremblingly.

A catty of water saluted Sima Cuo at the door of the office and said, "Report to the general, Yi Jinshui has come to receive the order." ”

Sima Cuo beckoned to him, nodded, and motioned for him to advance.

Take a pound of water and take a step and stop.

Sima Cuo finally opened his mouth and said, "Come closer, get closer." ”

A pound of water gall let go, took a big step forward and said: "General Xie is thick......" Before he finished speaking, Sima Cuo suddenly stabbed with a sword, straight to the heart of chata.

A pound of water seemed to be on guard, he sucked his stomach and bent over, rolled on the ground like lightning, and rushed out of the door. He turned back to Sima Cuo: "You...... You...... Why is this happening to me? Why? Without waiting for Sima to answer, he jumped and escaped from the danger zone.

The sharp knife team hidden on the south bank, after Zhong Yitong left, the timid Erwa was temporarily in charge.

After he saw the ships on the opposite shore burning, he soon resumed a defensive line and said suspiciously: "Could it be that the Qin army moved troops so quickly?" Alas, if Zhong Bai is here, we can swim over to see what is going on. ”

Tu Dengfu continued: "When the hour left, didn't you be asked to be responsible? Wouldn't it be nice for you to take the lead and swim over, just talking nonsense? ”

"Hey, you're a real man." The second baby said timidly, "I was thinking about the hour, and I didn't say anything about you, what did you say?" ”

Tu Dengfu raised his voice and said, "Do you want to have a bird for the hour?" He told you to be responsible, but you squatted in the pit and didn't. If it were me, I would have jumped into the river and gone with him. ”

The second baby was angry, and said ruthlessly: "Okay, I'll show you a today, stand up and Tu Dengfu, I order you to swim to the opposite side immediately and find out the enemy." ”

When several other people heard this, they couldn't help but applaud in agreement.

"Okay, everyone agrees that you are going to slaughter the lamp, what else do you have to say?" Erwa emphasized.

Tu Dengfu stood up and said as he stepped back: "If you want me to go, you can, but you have to wait for Zhong Baichang to come back." ”

"Why?" Everyone asked in unison.

Tu Dengfu said unhurriedly: "Because as the second baby who is temporarily responsible, giving orders is like a joke, and whoever listens will be fooled." ”

Erwa said angrily: "Hey, if you don't enforce military discipline, you still ......"

The person who was looking for Zhong Yitong's squad heard someone arguing, and followed the reputation, and sure enough, it was his own person.

When Erwa learned that it was General Zhuang who sent them to pick them up, she had to repeat what Tu Dengfu said just now: "We have to wait for Zhong Baichang to come back." ”

Zhong Yitong had slept in bed for far more than two hours, and it was almost a day before he had a "hmm" in his nostrils.

When the waiting military doctor heard this, he shouted ecstatically: "Wake up, wake up, and finally pick up a life." ”

Ah Cai has also been staying next to Zhong Yitong, but because he is too tired, he can't help but take a nap. Now when I heard Lang Zhong shouting, I was instantly energetic. She walked over to Zhong Yitong's bedside and asked softly, "Are you feeling better?" She picked up the bowl and said, "Come, drink some sugar water." ”

Zhong Yitong was very moved to see that Ah Cai cared so much about him, but he was still speechless, so he could only nod his head to express his gratitude.

After Ah Cai understood, he said, "You can rest in peace, I'll go get you something to eat, so I can make up for it." When she turned to leave, she saw Zhong Yitong's hand swinging straight.

Ah Cai turned around and asked, "What are you going to say?" ”

I saw Zhong Yitong's hand swing twice, and it fell down again weakly.

Ah Cai shouted in panic: "Quick, Brother Zhong can't do it again." 166 Reading Network
