Chapter 842: The wolf should be hungry first

Therefore, Li Xinchen was able to produce these tools for these 800 soldiers, which was obviously painstaking. Ouyang Mo, the master craftsman in charge of production at that time, thought that he had heard it wrong, and only after confirming it again and again with Li Xinchen did he arrange for people to start a new production line. Of course, the line was closed after the production of 800 matching blades.

There is no need for Li Xinchen to emphasize more, Ouyang Mo also knows how important these blades are, so he uses the best materials, otherwise like Cheng Feng, who groped his way forward in the water and bumped along the way, the thinner blades would have already been broken.

The water gate is the convergence of water in the city and outside the city, the water surface looks very calm, in fact, the underwater is already an undercurrent, Cheng Feng stretched out his hand to hold a pillar, quickly cutting the fence, and more than a dozen soldiers are also doing the same thing as him, as for the rest of the more people are lurking in the water, they all carry reed pipes with them, so that only a small section of reed pipes needs to be exposed on the water surface.

For the Northern Zhou soldiers who were roasting the fire at the city gate, these reed pipes blending into the darkness could not attract their attention at all, or in the heavy darkness before dawn, even if seven or eight hundred people were floating on the water, it was estimated that they would not be able to see it, unless they took the torches and walked to the shore to observe carefully.

Of course, at this time, of course, it is better to be careful.

In late autumn, the cold water almost made Cheng Feng unconscious, but he was still doing his best to sawing the fence.

"What's going on?" At this time, a voice suddenly came from the city.

Suddenly all the Bashu soldiers in the darkness held their breath, they only heard the cold water, their hearts were beating throbbing, and almost all of them subconsciously put their hands on the knife on their waists, although the lancet suitable for carrying in the water is easy to be at a disadvantage when fighting, but it is the biggest reliance of these soldiers now, if they are really discovered by the enemy, even if they know that they have no armor on their bodies to launch an attack is tantamount to using their mantis arms as a car, they will not hesitate to jump out of the water, Do your best to fulfill your mission.

"It may be that the fish in the water have fluttered a few times, and it is not that it has not been before, what is there to make a fuss about, several brothers are sleeping!" Then another voice came.

The footsteps gradually faded away, Cheng Feng breathed a sigh of relief, poked his head out of the water, and was about to continue cutting, when a torch suddenly fell from the city gate, suddenly illuminating the water surface at the city gate. And a soldier at the city gate pointed impatiently to the water and said: "You look at the small ripples, it must be a fish probe, I will say what are you suspicious of!" โ€

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I'll invite you to drink later!"

"That's pretty much it."

Cheng Feng only felt that his breathing was about to stop, and at this time he was back to normal, he learned a lesson, and waited for a cup of tea before he started cutting again. The first fence was finally taken down, and the rest of the soldiers made a breakthrough by this time.

Cheng Feng exhaled deeply, dived straight into the water, and swam forward over the wreckage of these fences, and the rest of the soldiers followed closely behind. Not long after passing the water gate, Cheng Feng touched the iron cable in the water.

The iron rope is a commonly used means of blocking the opponent's ships in water warfare, some are similar to the tripping rope to block the cavalry in land warfare, when the charging ship hits the iron, it is indispensable to ask people to turn the boat on their backs, but for Cheng Feng and others, this is not a difficult difficulty to overcome. As Cheng Feng cautiously swam under the iron cable, the rope that followed made his hairs stand on end.

With the faint light of the fire shining from the city gate, you can see the ropes in the waterway. Unlike the iron cables, these weak ropes are obviously not enough to stop the boats, which is mainly to prevent water ghosts, when the unfamiliar water spirits hit these ropes under the impetus of the current, the gong on the shore will be pulled and sounded, and the defenders will naturally know that they should come to capture the water ghosts.

Although the surface of the inland waterway is calm and calm, because of the convergence of tributaries, the undercurrent has always been turbulent, and Cheng Feng was able to easily dive over the iron cable before, mainly because of the driving effect of the water flow. But now the impetus of the water is playing a different role, if the water ghost is not familiar with this, it will be pushed directly into the trap by the water current, and by the time the water spirit realizes it, it will naturally be too late.

Fortunately, before entering Xiangyang City, Cheng Feng had already learned about these arrangements from several Fancheng prisoners of war and made preparations in advance, otherwise the shore would have been shaking the sky by now. Cheng Feng looked at several generals around him with the help of flickering light, they all pulled out the saws on their waists, two people stepped forward to stabilize the rope, and the rest of the people carefully cut the rope.

According to the description of the prisoners of war, continuing forward should be the forage field of the Xiangyang defenders. Grain and grass are easy to ignite, and it is also the favorite target of enemy scouts during siege, once the grain and grass are ignited, it will have an impact on the morale of both sides.

In order to prevent fires and be able to rescue in time when on fire, the forage yard of Xiangyang City is set up near the north gate, which is close to the inland river and easy to get water, and once the fire is too big, you can also urgently open the gate on the water gate to increase the amount of water.

This forage field was naturally the target of Cheng Feng and the others to sneak into the city this time, but it was not the ultimate goal. Because Li Xinchen did not give their final action goal, everything depends on Cheng Feng's on-site performance.

It's a trust, but it's also a test.

Without the use of this army, it was only a matter of time before Li Xinchen attacked Xiangyang; But if you don't go to the battlefield, there will never be a way for this army to prove itself. Therefore, there is no need for Cheng Feng to mobilize, these soldiers all cherish this opportunity.

With a wave of his hand, Cheng Feng swam forward first.

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”

West of Xiangyang City.

The wind on the water is cool, and if you are a little thin, you have to wrap it tightly, so you can imagine what it would be like if you were immersed in the water.

Pei Zilie slowly walked to Li Xinchen's side, since Zishi Cheng Feng and they started to act, Li Xinchen has been standing here silently looking at Xiangyang City, and he doesn't know whether he is looking forward or waiting.

"Before you came, you held them back." Pei Zilie said in a low voice, obviously others only said that Cheng Feng and others were really unlucky, and they couldn't catch up in a hurry, but Pei Zilie, who knew Li Xinchen, knew that things were definitely not so simple, such an elite, Li Xinchen would not always be in the back, unless he had other plans, "There is no movement at all until now, are you nervous?" โ€

Li Xinchen chuckled: "That's a pack of wolves, if they are well fed, then they may be very nervous, but ยทยทยทยทยทยท They are a pack of hungry wolves. โ€

Pei Zilie suddenly gasped.
