"Shoot the arrows!"

"Second team, put!"

When Zhao Hongrun arrived at the location where Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao were, Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao were commanding their subordinates to shoot at the Chu warships in the Hunhe River with Lu State's heavy crossbows, intending to destroy and sink these enemy warships.

However, those Chu warships were very cunning, and when they saw that they were ambushed by the enemy, they simply abandoned the three warships at the front of the team, and let these three warships attract firepower in front, while the follow-up warships hid behind the three warships, trying to force through the blockade of the Wei army with such a formation.

Seeing this, Gao Kuo secretly hated in his heart, and immediately ordered his subordinates to stop shooting.

"Wait, wait......"

Gao Kuo thought very well, he was going to wait for these warships to pass by their ambush point, and shoot these Chu warships from the side.

In this way, the idea of these Chu warships giving up three of them to protect the rest will not work.

However, when those warships were about to pass by Gao Kuo and the others, countless crossbowmen suddenly appeared on the deck of their ships.

Seeing this, he was shocked and immediately shouted: "Be careful of the arrows!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw those Chu warships with arrows fired in unison.

For a moment, the Wei army on the river bank was in chaos.

"Beware of avoidance! Avoid! ”

"Shoot the bolts! Shoot the bolts! ”

The Wei army on the river bank braved the baptism of arrows, forced nearly 200 heavy crossbows that had already been loaded with crossbow arrows, pulled the trigger, and shot the crossbow arrows.

And when they hoped to load the crossbow bolts for another wave, those Chu warships had already rushed over quickly with the help of wind and current.

"Damn!" Gao Kuo hammered the trunk of the tree beside him hatefully, with a look of remorse.

Beside him, almost most of the hundreds of Wei troops were injured in the rain of arrows, fortunately, the arrows of the Chu State, the arrow clusters are relatively backward, even if they hit the human body, they will not be killed on the spot, as long as the arrow clusters are dug out, and then applied with the herbal paste of Sanchuan's specialty, it will take three or two days to recover.

Only those unlucky ghosts who were directly shot in the head, heart and other fatal parts could not be saved.

"Da-da."

The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao turned their heads vigilantly to take a look, only to see that their Royal Highness had led the Zongwei and Su Wangwei here.

"Your Highness."

Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao immediately walked to Zhao Hongrun's mount and saluted with their fists.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun frowned and glanced at the wounded everywhere, and asked in a tight voice, "Where is the warship of the Chu State?" ”

Hearing this, Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao glanced at each other and said in a low voice: "I am entrusted by His Highness...... was swept over by the Chu ship. ”

Zhao Hongrun frowned deeply when he heard this, and immediately asked, "How many ships are there?!" ”

Seeing this, Gao Kuo clenched his fists and replied: "There are twenty-three large warships, four of which have almost sunk, and the remaining eighty percent of the cabins have been severely damaged, only ...... Only five were unscathed. ”

Five?

Zhao Hongrun's face became a little ugly, but seeing Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao's guilty expressions, he couldn't bear to reprimand these two Zongwei anymore, and immediately turned back to Zongwei Changwei and said, "Wei Jiao, send a signal to stop crossing the river downstream!" ”

"Yes!" Wei Jiao clenched his fists to receive the order, and then took a military horn from his horse and blew a rapid military horn.

"Woo-woo-woo-"

"Woo-woo-woo-"

Not?

I saw that in the section of the Huhe River where the Wei army crossed the river, Qu Cheng, the chief general of the Yanling army, heard the warning sound of the military horn from the upstream direction, and his face changed slightly.

It's not good, the upstream has not destroyed all the Chu ships......

Thinking of this, Qu Cheng rode his war horse to the riverbank, used his scabbarded sword to block a few Wei soldiers who were still about to step on the pontoon bridge, and then shouted to the Wei army crowded around: "The Yanling army and the Shangshui army listen to the order, and the whole army retreats twenty steps!" ”

Wu Ji, the general of the Shangshui Army, who was also on the bank of the river, noticed Qu Cheng's abnormal behavior, was slightly stunned, and subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the upper reaches of the Hun River, and shouted at the same time: "Shangshui Army, obey General Qu's order and take twenty steps back!" ”

Hearing this, the Yan Ling army and the Shang Shui soldiers retreated twenty steps back, but the Wei army, which had already stepped on the pontoon bridge, could not retreat in time.

And at this moment, under the gaze of countless Wei generals, a fleet of boats appeared in the upper reaches of the Huhe River.

It can be seen that this fleet has been devastated, and most of the warships have tilted, half-sunk and half-floating, drifting down the river to this side.

Oops...... Brothers on the pontoon!

Countless Wei soldiers tightened their hearts and looked at the pontoon bridge with blue faces.

At this time, no one shouted: "Run!" ”

Immediately, the Wei army on the north bank of the Hunhe River all raised their voices to warn the Wei army Tongze on the pontoon bridge.

In fact, at this moment, the Wei troops who were running fast on the pontoon bridge actually noticed the threat from the upper reaches of the Hun River, and they ran fast one by one.

But even so, there are still some Wei soldiers who are dragged down by their own footsteps.

At this time, those Chu warships had come to the pontoon bridge, and it could be vaguely seen that the first ship of this fleet, on the ship that had sunk most of the time, there was a Chu general holding the mast of the bow of the ship, and shouted with a hideous face: "Crash over!" ”

"Boom—"

With a loud bang, the pontoon bridge on the surface of the Hun River was suddenly smashed to the ground, and hundreds of Wei soldiers who could not escape fell into the water and were swept downward by the turbulent river.

At the same time, on the side of the Chu warship, the five warships at the front of the team sank on the spot, and the next few were also about to sink.

During this period, countless Wei troops couldn't bear to turn their heads.

The battlefield was like this, in the blink of an eye, they lost hundreds of Tongze.

However, this was not the time for mercy and sympathy, because the crossbowmen on the warships of the Chu State had already shot a wave of arrows towards the riverbank.

"Arrow strike! Arrow Strike! ”

Several Wei soldiers of 3,000 men immediately shouted to their soldiers to dodge the arrows or use shields to resist.

At the same time, the crossbowmen on the Wei army's side also counterattacked the Chu warships on the river.

However, it was just a matter of looking at the face, and these Chu warships, which had not yet sunk, had already gone downstream along the river.

While counting the losses, the Wei army launched two other pontoon bridges - the same pontoon bridge, there were three on the Wei army alone, and the reason why they didn't take out all of them at the beginning was to prevent the Chu water army in the Huhe River from forcibly crashing into the pontoon bridges in this way.

And now, since these Chu warships have passed the Wei army's side and are going down the river to plague the Qilu coalition army and the Qi army on the east road, then the Wei army naturally has to seize the time and race against time to force the crossing of the Hu River.

After all, on the south bank of the Hun River, there were only a few thousand Wei troops, but they desperately resisted the Chu army that was pouring to this side like a tide.

"Boom-"

"Boom-"

The two pontoon bridges were pushed down the river before and after.

Seeing this, Qu Cheng and Wu Ji respectively drew their swords from their waists, pointed them at the other side of the river, and shouted in unison: "The whole army ...... Crossing! ”

"Wow!"

Tens of thousands of Wei troops were not swayed by Fang Cai's scene in the slightest, and with weapons in their arms, they stepped onto the pontoon bridge one after another, rushing to the other side of the river.

During this period, there will be unintentional Wei soldiers who will slip into the water at any time, but whether it is the Yan Ling army or the Shang Shui army, the eyes of these soldiers have not changed at all, and they have only one goal: to rush to the other side of the river!

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

"Keep up! Come on! ”

For a full quarter of an hour, the Wei army used the two pontoon bridges to cross the Hun River without stopping.

During this period, Qu Cheng and Wu Ji can be said to be pinching a cold sweat.

Because at this time, if another Chu fleet is dispatched from the upper reaches of the Huhe River, it will be all over, because the iron locks blocking the river are not used at all, and once there are Chu ships swooping down from the upstream with the flow of water, these two unreliable pontoon bridges will be finished immediately.

And these two pontoon bridges are the last two pontoon bridges on the Wei army's side.

If it is destroyed by the Chu army, then the Wei army's plan to forcibly cross the Hun River today can only end in failure.

The sky was pitiful, but fortunately, there were no warships rushing downstream from the upper reaches of the Hun River, so that the Wei army finally crossed the Hun River without danger.

However, later Qu Cheng and Wu Ji learned that in fact, in the upper reaches of the Huhe River, there was a second wave of ships dispatched, but this time the fleet was smaller, only more than ten warships, so they were sunk on the spot by Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao with nearly 200 Lu State heavy crossbows.

40,000 Yanling troops, 40,000 merchant and sail troops, and as many as 80,000 Wei troops, finally set foot on the land on the south bank of the Hun River without danger.

The first thing these Wei troops did when they set foot on the southern shore was to quickly organize a formation to support the friendly forces in front.

Don't look at the contradictions between the Yanling army and the Shangshui army, don't look at the two Wei armies filled with half of the Chu army, but in the face of the Chu army attacking them at this moment, the 80,000 Wei army hugged together, desperately did not retreat, and firmly established a foothold on the south bank.

The two armies of Wei and Chu fought fiercely for a whole hour, and when they saw that they couldn't help each other, those Chu armies slowly retreated.

Don't think that this is because the Chu army is weak, or because you are afraid of the Wei army, this is just the tactics of the Chu army.

After all, in the land south of the Huhe River, there were Chu troops everywhere, and as long as the Wei army dared to go deeper, they would always have a way to deal with the Wei army, attacking and harassing day and night, so that the Wei army could not even garrison the barracks.

It's a pity that this time the Wei army didn't plan to station in the barracks.

"Divide the troops!"

With the order of Qu Cheng, the chief general of the Yanling army, the 80,000 Wei troops suddenly turned into more than 20 armies, going deep into the west, southwest, south, and southeast directions, and specially picking mountain passes, forests, swamps, mountain streams, and other places with complex terrain to drill.

The huge 80,000 Wei army, as if it was just a blink of an eye, disappeared from under the noses of the Chu army without a trace.

In the face of this move of the Wei army, a Chu army that came to block it during the period was obviously stunned, and watched several Wei troops disappear from sight.

Division? Divide the troops at such a time? Is Wei Jun impatient?

The general of the Chu State thought in astonishment.

Come to think of it, there are no longer a few generals of the Chu State who have similar ideas.

At the same time, Zhao Hongrun stood on the north bank of the Hun River, watching the army under his command disappear from sight in the distance, and exhaled slightly.

The so-called dangerous tactics refer to the current Wei army, if there is a way, he does not want to use this kind of dangerous tactics that are easy to be broken by the Chu State.

I hope all goes well......

After taking a deep look at the south bank, His Royal Highness King Su turned around and returned to Gongxian County. (To be continued.) )
