Although it is a shortcut to go down the river, you can rush to Chencheng, the capital of Chu State, as soon as possible, but it is not easy to build a raft, the first thing is to choose materials, and it is impossible to find dry wood at the moment, so you have to work wet wood, otherwise the raft will sink to the bottom as soon as the water is built, or people will step on the river water and not reach their ankles, then they will suffer. \\、\\

"General, there is a tree called Aoki, even if it is cut down, it can float in the water, and when I was in my hometown, I saw that the old people in the clan used to use Aoki to build boats and fish, and there should be this kind of tree on both sides of the river." A Chu ** pawn said to Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo sighed and said, "Really? Let's look around, it would be great if there were such trees, but if we can't do it, we can only make it simple because of the ugliness, and everyone will suffer a little. ”

After Zhao Kuo left a few people to protect the bear, he walked along the riverbank to the woods not far away, where if there were no green trees, he could also cut down some other trees to build a raft.

......As soon as Zhao Kuo and the others walked into the woods, they saw more than a dozen unknown birds flying in the distance, probably alarmed by Zhao Kuo and others, and they flew in a hurry.

Zhao Kuo walked around the woods a few times, only found a dozen so-called green trees, and cut some other trees to get the materials together, when the soldiers looked at Zhao Kuo and cut down the big tree alone, a person carried a log and walked up like flying, and suddenly admired the five-body throw.

It was difficult to build a ship, and it was relatively easy to build a raft, so Zhao Kuo finished repairing the trees, and used a gun halberd to make three hollows in the trunk of the tree in three sections, and handed over the rest of the work to the soldiers, who asked them to tie the trees together.

In less than two hours, a big raft was built, and it was not a problem for a hundred people to go on it, Zhao Kuo tried the sturdiness of the raft, nodded with satisfaction: "I can use those branches to make a few small shacks and set off, so that we don't have a place to shelter from the rain when it rains." ”

When everything was ready, it was almost dark, Zhao Kuo struggled to push the raft on the shore into the water, beckoned Xiong Wan and others to come up, and took the three-zhang long wrist-thick trunk as a support, and under Zhao Kuo's support, the raft slowly floated to the middle of the river and went downstream.

Zhao Kuo estimated that it might have caught up with the autumn flood, the water level of the water was relatively high, and he originally wanted to go into the shack to rest for a while, but there were whirlpools and undercurrents in the river from time to time, so he had to support the direction of the raft alone and make a captain.

Going down the river is fast, Zhao Kuo calculated the time, it won't take them three days to enter Yingshui from the water, and then it will take half a day to reach Chencheng in the Chu State, it seems that in this era, the waterway is faster than the land route!

"Quack...... "Zhao Kuo found that many birds flew up in the woods on the south bank of the water, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, at this time, the birds had no reason to leave the nest, they must have been disturbed, and it was a large-scale disturbance.......

"Bring the bow and arrows." Zhao Kuo asked the soldiers to bring the sun-shooting bow and handed over the task of supporting the raft to the other two people, only to see that he opened his bow and set an arrow on the riverbank, and Zhao Kuo was still a little uneasy after shooting this arrow, and shot three arrows in succession.

"Ahh There was a scream on the other side of the river, Zhao Kuo secretly said that it was not good, and he hurriedly asked Xiong Wan and the others to hide in the shack, at this time the raft was in the middle of the river, less than five zhang from the shore, if there was really an enemy attack, it was just within the range of the feather arrows.

The people on the south bank thought they had been exposed, and in an instant hundreds of torches were lit and rushed towards the shore, and from time to time feathered arrows shot out of the woods, and a few even hit the rafts.

"It's Qin Jun, it seems that Bai Qi really looks up to me." Zhao Kuo saw that it was the soldiers of the Qin army against the backdrop of the torches on the opposite side, and immediately asked the people around him to hide in the shack, and at this time he didn't care about the direction of the raft, so he could only pray that the raft would not capsize or shatter in the case of the opponent's feathered arrows.

Of course, Zhao Kuo was not afraid of the Qin army's feather arrows, took out the quiver and found that there were more than twenty long arrows, and said to himself: "If the main general of the Qin army is careless, he can take his life." ”

Zhao Kuo's side still took advantage, first, the raft went down the river very fast, and it was very inconvenient for the Qin army to chase the road on the shore, about a few hundred people could keep up with the speed of the raft, and shoot towards the raft with bows and arrows.

Zhao Kuo had been lurking behind the shack, staring at the south bank of the river with big shining eyes, he was searching for the location of the main general of the Qin army, and he had already placed the sun-shooting bow on his chest in his hand, and he would shoot him after determining which one was the main general of the Qin army.

The torches and rockets lit by the Qin army helped Zhao Kuo a lot, and with these lights, Zhao Kuo saw the shore clearly, and also captured the position of the main general of the Qin army, Zhao Kuo judged that it should be a general, and the general was also holding a bow and arrows, and it was a rocket.

"Whoosh." Pi shot a rocket into a shack accurately, and then drew his bow and arrow, and another arrow hit the shack.

Zhao Kuo waited for the opportunity, and just when the general wanted to launch again, Zhao Kuo's sun-shooting bow was suddenly full and then let go, and the long arrow drew a straight line in the air and shot straight at the general.

Zhao Kuo couldn't hear the screams of the general, but he could see that the long arrow shot through the general, and the aftermath was unabated and shot another Qin soldier, and the killing of the main general made the Qin army immediately panic, and after the Qin army chased a few miles away, they withdrew their troops.

Zhao Kuo saw that there was no longer a shadow of the Qin army on the shore, so he immediately called someone out to extinguish the rockets on the raft. Huang Xie came out of the shack and let out a sigh of relief: "It's so dangerous! If it weren't for the third brother who killed the main general of the Qin army with an arrow, we would have to be buried in the river tonight. Huang Xie really saw Zhao Kuo kill the enemy general with an arrow through the gap in the shack, and admired Zhao Kuo's archery skills.

"It's the Qin army commander who is careless and underestimates the enemy, if there is no light from their torches, if they want to shoot that general, it will be better to ascend to the sky." After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, he went straight to the largest shack, and the mount lightning was in it, and he didn't want the lightning to be hurt a little more.

On the third day, the water merged into the Yingshui River, Zhao Kuo and others were getting closer and closer to Chen Cheng, and at Zhao Kuo's suggestion, everyone abandoned the raft to land, and told Xiong Wan not to contact any officials in the Chu State, in Zhao Kuo's words, the current situation in the Chu State, only in the dark is the best for them.
