In the vast morning mist, a group of ships loomed, this group of ships was not very large, three of them were about the same size as the old Zhu Zuo ship, and the remaining four or five were small ships of about one hundred and fifty materials.

However, the soldiers above are absolutely elite, all of them are neatly armoured, they all carry hard bows on their backs, and they have a hundred steel knives straddling their waists, and even their shields are wrapped in thick iron sheets.

Zhang Dingbian was sitting on one of the big boats in heavy armor, waiting with his eyes closed. It wasn't until he heard the sound of paddling that he opened his eyes to see a sampan boat coming through the morning mist towards his ship.

Boom! The two boats touched slightly, and the big boat threw down the soft ladder, and the two people in the small boat climbed up. The two men seemed to have been pulled out of the coal pile, naked, and their bodies were blackened, and only the whites of their eyes could be seen.

The guard beside Zhang Dingbian said: "Tai Lieutenant, the two water ghosts are back!" The two black men walked up to Zhang Dingbian and immediately bowed down on one knee.

Zhang Dingbian nodded and asked the two black men, "The investigation is clear." ”

One of the black men said with a shudder: "Captain Hui, I have found out clearly, there is indeed a ship with a white mast on the side of Kanglang Mountain. (Note 1)"

At this time, it is already autumn, and the water in the lake is still quite cold in the morning, especially in the depths of the lake, it is no wonder that two people have been sneaking in the lake for so long without being cold.

Zhang Dingbian took out a map and asked the two water ghosts to mark the location, then waved his hand and said, "You two have worked hard, this official will personally ask Your Majesty for the two of you." Go down and give them both some hot soup. ”

Zhang Dingbian's tightly locked eyebrows finally loosened, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said in his heart: "Zou Pusheng, Zou Pusheng, you are really small." Not only can you calculate that there is fog in the lake this morning, but you can also calculate the location of the bald squid. Zhu Yuanzhang, hum ......"

As soon as he waved his hand, several groups of soldiers put the extra-long penny into the water, and with a little force, the boat slowly moved forward, faster and faster, but the sound produced was very small, like a ghost boat wandering in the lake.

Although he didn't sleep for long, Lao Zhu didn't feel sleepy at all, and listened carefully to the shouts and guns around the people. He had been marching and fighting for many years, and he could tell what was going on by listening to the sounds.

He slowly opened his eyes and sneered in his heart, "Chen Youliang is really the end of a strong crossbow!" ”

He looked at Liu Ji, who was standing beside him, and saw that his face was full of tiredness, so he said, "If Mr. is tired, you can go to the cabin to rest." ”

Lao Liu Xin said, I don't have such a big heart, I only said: "This battle is almost over, and it's not too late to rest after the battle." ”

"How does the gentleman know that the fight is almost over?"

Liu Ji smiled, "The sound of the bell has not stopped, and from time to time you can still hear the loud sound of the giant boat falling on the water, and when the morning fog clears, the battle will be over." ”

Lao Zhu smiled: "Thanks to Wen Ying and Xiaodu's good method, Chen Youliang wants to attack me while the fog is in the fog, but he doesn't want to think that our boat is more hidden in the fog." He's stealing chickens and rice! ”

"Huh?" Liu Ji suddenly raised his eyebrows.

"What's wrong with sir?"

"My subordinates seem to hear that someone is screaming, as if they are not far from us. There it is again! Seems to be our scout. It's that direction! ”

A strong wind suddenly blew on the lake, and most of the original Miao Miao mist dispersed, Lao Zhu looked at Liu Ji's fingers, and saw a fleet of boats about a mile away, without a sail, but silently coming in his direction. Like a wandering poisonous snake, it has found its prey at this moment, and has opened its hideous mouth.

Lao Zhu understood, it turned out that the chicken that Chen Youliang wanted to catch was his Lao Zhu. There was no need for him to order that there would be escorts on the side of the ships to meet the enemy, but unfortunately the Chinese army had gone into battle, and there were only more than a thousand guards operating five or six ships, and the size was only about the same as Lao Zhu's ship.

But before they could reach the broadside, a dense and powerful burst of arrows was fired from the enemy ship, and the ships that rushed to the front immediately fell in pieces. It's not that Lao Zhu's personal soldiers are too bad, it's that Zhang Dingbian is unprepared for an attack, and Lao Zhu's personal soldiers will inevitably suffer.

Seeing that the warship in front of him was at a loss, the soldiers who came later immediately reacted and hurriedly took a shield to resist the arrows and engage Zhang Dingbian in close combat, but they still fell significantly behind.

In the end, the guards on the old Zhuzuo ship also quickly caught up, and the commander Chen Zhaoxian shouted above: "Take firearms!" "Their firearm Ma Du must have recognized it when he saw it, it was the Hongdu brand simple grenade developed and designed by him, it seems that Lao Zhu really didn't leave any good things for his nephew.

The enemy is coming prepared and so ferocious, running away is the best option, "Go!" Han Cheng gave an order, and long oars suddenly stretched out from the small holes on both sides of the boat, stretching out to the surface of the water, rowing neatly, and the speed was faster than using the sail.

At the same time, some archers kept shooting special bows and arrows into the air, and the arrows dragged a long thick tail of smoke into the air, obviously sending a signal for help.

When the morning fog dissipated, Lao Zhu saw the enemy general who was killing all sides through the binoculars, and slapped the side of the ship with hatred, "It must be Zhang Dingbian's turtle grandson!" ”

Han Chengdao: "Don't worry, they won't be able to catch up!" ”

Han Cheng is a crow's mouth, Lao Zhu's boat just turned over Kanglang Mountain, but several small boats came out from behind the mountain, each boat was about ten people, although the boat was small, but the speed was not slow at all.

They were close to the side of Lao Zhu's ship, and they kept shooting arrows, some shooting into the boat, and some shooting into the small hole in the oars. The arrows were extremely accurate, and from time to time there were soldiers on the boat who screamed and fell into the lake, and from time to time there were screams from the small hole in the oars, and then the oars did not move.

Han Cheng persuaded: "Guogong go to the cabin!" ”

Old Zhu snorted angrily and said, "Don't go!" I want to see what Zhang Dingbian can do to me! ”

Han Cheng had no choice but to let the soldiers hold their shields to protect Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Ji while letting the soldiers fight back. Lao Zhu's personal soldiers are not vegetarians, it can be said that all of them are good at shooting arrows with knives, and they are condescending, and the Han soldiers on several small boats were shot clean in a short time.

However, people did not notice that Lao Zhu's ship had deviated from the original direction, because the number of sailors responsible for rowing on both sides was different.

Lao Zhu's ship didn't go far away, when there was a sudden violent shock, the bow of the ship was raised and the hull was tilted, and the soldiers on the ship fell into the water one after another, and the ship actually ran aground in the shallows at this time.

Han Cheng pulled Lao Zhu with one hand and Liu Ji with the other, but the mast was sandwiched between his legs, fortunately, the three of them did not fall into the water, but when he looked up, he saw that Zhang Dingbian had broken through the obstacles, and rushed towards this side with great momentum, shouting in surprise: "Everyone abandons the ship!" Get the prince on the boat! ”

Note 1 Lao Zhu was overshadowed by Lao Chen several times in the Battle of Poyang Lake, and Lao Zhu wondered why the enemy could find his ship more than once, and later learned that because his masts were painted white, he had to paint the masts of more ships white to confuse Lao Chen
