With the experience of the previous car, the city guards behind naturally did not dare to easily ignore their edge, and retreated to Hulukou one after another.

The Wei River flows through Chang'an from east to west, it is gourd-shaped, the east is wide and the west is narrow, and the first pass of the gourd is the first pass of the gourd at the west wharf of the Tai'an River, and it is also the first checkpoint of Chang'an from the waterway.

Zhao Xianlong is not a mediocre person, otherwise he would not have been placed in Tai'an, so he naturally knew that the two battalions could not pose much of a threat to the Jichuan Water Division, just to delay time. The mouth of the gourd has been blocked by requisitioned fishing boats, and the fishing boats are strung together with iron locks and fixed, like sugar gourds. The whole plank became a huge platform hundreds of feet long, densely packed with soldiers waiting for battle, there were also three battalions of troops on both sides of the bank, and dozens of fishing boats carrying reinforcements in the rear. Zhao Xianlong sat in the army, and it was bound to stop the Jichuan Sailor in the water and not be allowed to dock.

The Red Tiger Gang was originally the guise for the Longchang Dart Bureau to control the dock, but now that the big thing has started, it is naturally all under Zhao Xianlong's dispatch, and all the members of the Red Tiger Gang have now joined the city guards, which has greatly increased the strength of the city guards and has the power to fight against the Shangjichuan Water Division.

The deputy general said, "General, Chen De has the secret protection of the masters, and he has not been able to kill him. ”

Zhao Xianlong was stunned for a moment, and then relieved. "Then don't bother with that, let him live a few more days." "After all, Mr. Water Ghost, his wife is still a big man, and it is reasonable to have someone to protect him, as long as it doesn't hurt the big thing, don't care about him.

The fleet is coming, and the Hulukou channel is already narrow, and now it is impossible to set up a formation. Liu Wei stood on the second floor of the building boat and looked into the distance, and frowned slightly when he saw that the fishing boat was blocked in front of him. If you want to control the river, you must rush through, and the water in the wharf is wide, which is more suitable for setting up a formation. Otherwise, the arrival of the Anzhou army will become a trap, and the sailors will be mighty at that time.

Liu Wei shouted, "The warship ahead bypassed and let the building ship crash into it." ”

The adjutant general clasped his fists and said, "General, this move is very dangerous, please think twice." ”

Liu Wei glared at the deputy general and said angrily, "The country is still in danger, how can personal safety be compared with it?" ”

The deputy general woke up like a dream, and he was full of pride. Hug your fists and do: "The end will know the mistake." ”

After saying that, he waved the yellow and red flags, and the warships in front of him sailed to both sides, and the building ships suddenly accelerated and rushed forward. The banner was hunting in the wind, Liu Wei pulled out his saber and shouted, "All the soldiers listen to the order, everyone lands and fights, and they must take the gourd mouth and fight to the death." Those who flee will be killed. ”

The city guards on the floating platform in front of them saw the huge building ship seven or eight feet high rushing towards it, and they were so frightened that their legs trembled, and they swallowed saliva in their mouths.

The archers on the building ship were already ready, and the lieutenant gave an order, and the arrows poured down like a rainstorm of pear blossoms. Although the lethality is limited, it is enough to disrupt its formation.

Baizhang... Fifty zhang... Thirty zhang... Ten zhang. The city guards on the riverbank had already drawn their bows and arrows, and the first wave of arrows roared. Liu Wei shouted, "Don't pay attention to it, just rush up." ”

Several soldiers of Lou Boat fell to the ground with arrows, and they didn't even look at it. There was a loud bang, and the boat shook violently, but fortunately, the soldiers on the boat were prepared and grabbed the railing around them to stabilize their figures. The fishing boat's pontoon shook violently, and even retreated several feet back. Although most of these soldiers grew up by the river and have excellent water quality, there is still a big gap compared to these sailors who are one in a hundred. I saw that the soldiers on the floating platform fell to the ground one after another, and some were even directly shaken into the river.

The soldiers on the building boat pulled out their swords and jumped off the building boat, and the war ships behind found the gap and approached the floating platform, and the two sides fought together. The sailor took the lead, and rushed to the floating platform to slash and slash, killing a place for the brothers behind.

The warships behind were docked on the river bank, ready to land and kill. But the city guards on the shore occupy a geographical advantage, and the condescending is a rain of arrows. Several waves of impact were in vain, and there were heavy casualties, and one by one the sailors and soldiers fell directly into the river with arrows, and a ball of blood red appeared on the water, and finally they could only retreat to the boat and shoot at it.

The generals on the ship are like ants on a hot pot, and the battle ahead is Jiaozuo, and if the rear does not support in time, the consequences will be unimaginable. Due to the rapid sailing just now, the scouts on both sides of the strait still had to deal with the ambush, and the speed obviously could not keep up with the fleet, and there was a bit of a disconnection.

The floating platform has long been stained red with blood, and blood is constantly flowing from under the floating platform, and even the flowing river water has become scarlet. The two sides fought back and forth for control of the floating platform, the rain of arrows on the shore continued to shoot at the sailors, and the reinforcements of the city guards who were constantly cruising in the river continued to climb the floating platform. The situation began to reverse, and the large area that had just been controlled began to shrink, and they were forced to retreat in the direction of the building.

Liu Wei jumped up, landed on the floating platform with a bang, and shouted, "Don't retreat, retreating is a dead end." ”

said that he would take the lead and rush to kill. Liu Wei is also a veteran of the battlefield and has rich combat experience, if he takes a step back at this time, it will be a situation of defeat and retreat, and when the time comes, he will fall into the river and become the target of the archers on the shore.

Liu Wei rushed forward quickly, kicked over a city guard, and split a person in half with a backhand. Seeing that the general was so brave and fearless of death, the morale was greatly boosted, and the combat power soared, and they shouted and killed back one by one.

When a sailor soldier is stabbed in the belly, he is about to draw his sword and kill another companion. I saw that the soldier with blood in his mouth held the blade of the knife with both hands, stabbed himself in the stomach a few more points, and tried his best to wrap the other party in anger, bit his nose with his mouth, and fell into the river together.

The scouts listened to the killing and earth-shattering ahead, knew that the battle had begun, and did not care about the ambush, so they rushed forward quickly. Dozens of people on the road were shot by the archers who were in ambush, but they came just in time, otherwise the brothers on the warship in the river would have been killed. The scout team quickly entered the battle, and carried out a quick attack on the city guards on the shore, not seeking to kill with one blow, but only to drive away, so that the sailors and soldiers in the river could land smoothly.

There are fewer and fewer opponents killed along the way, and there are more and more sailors, and the battle situation is very good. The three battalions of city guards on the bank of the river soon couldn't resist and retreated one after another. On the floating platform, Liu Wei had a strong battle situation and soon occupied the floating platform. The reinforcements cruising in the river saw that the momentum was not good, and they retreated to the dock.

The sailors on the floating platform began to fall into targets, and now the rear warships and sailors have successfully landed and driven the city guards away. Now that the situation has been reversed, the city guards have become a target and will soon occupy the floating platform. Liu Wei, who was covered in blood, stood on the floating platform, looked at Zhao Xianlong at the dock on the other side, and shouted, "The thief will die." ”

But Zhao Xianlong at the dock saw that Liu Wei, who had won, was so arrogant, and he was not angry, but smiled and said, "It's so good." ”

This move can be described as killing two birds with one stone, not only consuming the strength of the water division, but also consuming Yang Xiu's new force. You, a remnant of the Sui Dynasty, also want to compete with my Li clan's orthodox King Jing for the world, it's really wishful thinking. Now that the wharf has raised the embankment, it is more difficult to imagine that it is more difficult to seize the wharf, and then it will consume you again, and when the Anzhou army arrives, you Liu Wei will be just a turtle in the urn, and you can handle it as much as you want, thinking of this, Zhao Xianlong was in a good mood and laughed.

There are floating corpses all around the floating platform, and the river is as red as blood. The morale of the sailors who experienced the battle of life and death for the first time was high and full of confidence. The deputy general arranged to cut the iron locks, and all the warships smoothly entered the wide waters of the dock, set up battle formations, and then connected the iron locks behind them to stop the Anzhou army.

The two sides confronted each other, and Liu Wei looked at the fortifications opposite, frowning. It is obviously impossible to take the dock quickly, and the Shangzhou reinforcements will not arrive until tomorrow at the earliest, and both sides are waiting to see whether the Anzhou army will arrive first or the Shangzhou reinforcements will arrive first.

In the Wanhualou downstream of the wharf, the girls and guests upstairs all turned scarlet when they saw the river, and they were all so frightened that they lost their faces and screamed, and they didn't know what terrible things had happened. This matter spread ten times and spread hundreds, and the trouble was known all over the city. Chen De, who was in the courtyard, looked at the snow in the sky and said abruptly, "The green mountains are white, and the water of the Wei River is like blood." ”
