After the return of the Praetorian Guards on duty, Ren Zhong stood for a while before he fell to his feet and sighed: "Country! Shi Wenqing misunderstood the country! ”

"General, what are we going to do?" The two of them behind Ren Zhong were in the dust, and the person dressed as a general asked.

Although Ren Zhong is a general, he can't directly break into the palace without the communication of the Zhongshu people, and he looked around at the Praetorian Guards who looked at them nervously, Ren Zhong had no choice but to say to the two: "You go back immediately and tell Huang Tingshi that he must guard the Jingkou, and I will urge the court to send reinforcements as soon as possible." ”

"Yes." The two glanced at the palace sadly, turned over on their horses, and just beat their horses away.

These two people are from Jingkou, three days ago, Sui general He Ruobi suddenly sent tens of thousands of troops from Guangling, crossed the Yangtze River to besiege Jingkou important land, because for half a year, He Ruobi's army along the river frequently changed guards, and each change of defense is a big fanfare, flags, camp tents all over the mountains, every time let the Chen army think that the other party is going to attack in a big way, and after sending troops to defend, the Sui army has dispersed, Chen Jun knows that the other party is changing defenses. After many times, the Chen army gathered and dispersed the Sui army, accustomed to it, but did not expect that this time the Sui army was really attacking, when the Sui army crossed the Yangtze River, the Chen army did not care, after the Sui army landed on the shore, the Chen army finally understood that the other party was really going to attack, however, had missed the opportunity to send warships to intercept, and the defenders of Jingkou had to defend the city and wait for reinforcements from the rear.

Niuzhu Mountain is surrounded by water on three sides, the southwest foot breaks into the river, condescending, overlooking the quarrying ferry, so Niuzhu Mountain is also known as quarrying rock, after Sun Ce attacked and captured Niuzhu camp in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. There are six or four counties in Wudong, which shows the importance of Niuzhu Mountain.

Since the separation of the north and the south, the quarry rock as the southwest barrier of Jiankang City, has been stationed with heavy troops, in the quarry alum across the river opposite, is the Sui and county Hengjiang crossing, from the Hengjiang crossing to the quarry rock river surface water potential is gentle, is still an important Jindu in the north and south of the river. At the beginning of this year. More than 100,000 soldiers and civilians of the Liang State went down the Yangtze River. Went ashore at the quarry ferry to join Chen Guo.

The sky was overcast. Since the beginning of the Shen time, the sky has begun to darken, and now just after the Shen time, the Yangtze River is already dark, a gust of cold wind blows from the river, and the river water from time to time beats the wooden stakes under the Hengjiang ferry, making a gurgling sound of water.

There was a sound of stamping. Then it was hidden in the sound of water and wind, and as soon as this faint sound of stepping reached the ferry, the sound was suddenly amplified, but it was like the sound of countless people stepping on the plank, a faint torch was lit, and a glimmer of light came out of the ferry in complete darkness, and the shadow of the ferry could be seen at once.

"Bang." There was a loud bang, and the whole ferry seemed to shake. A large dark shadow approached. "Pop, pop, countless planks sticking out of the shadows. On the ferry, the black shadow and the ferry port were suddenly connected.

"Up." A resolute command came from the darkness.

"Boom, boom, boom." Countless hard-soled cowhide shoes stepped on the plank, and threw themselves into the huge black shadow, roughly counting, at least hundreds of people went up, because of the darkness, from time to time someone touched the plank, the wooden frame, etc., made a thumping sound, and when everyone on the ferry was gone, the faint torch was extinguished, and the plank connected to the ferry was emptied again.

"Sail!" With this muffled shout, the huge black shadow moved and slowly headed towards the center of the river, and the ferry suddenly calmed down, as if nothing had happened here.

A faint light shone on Han Baohu's face, and as the light swayed, Han Baohu's face seemed to become uncertain. Tonight, it was Han Baohu who personally led 800 sailors to cross the river, with the purpose of taking Niuzhu Mountain, which controlled the quarrying ferry.

Three days ago, He Ruobi took the lead in Guangling to attack the Chen army, although good results were achieved, the Sui army almost did not encounter the resistance of Chen Guodi's naval army and transported tens of thousands of troops ashore, surrounded the Jingkou, no accident, a few days later Jingkou will fall into the hands of the Sui army, but He Ruobi's attack disrupted the advance arrangement of the marching marshal's mansion, originally according to the layout of the marching marshal's mansion, the time to attack Chen was arranged tonight, when the Sui army launched an attack at the same time on the Yangtze River defense line of thousands of miles, so that Chen Guo was caught off guard.

However, due to He Ruobi's attack three days in advance, there is no doubt that the plan of the Sui army will be exposed in advance, if the Chen army is not prepared, tonight's plan can be said to be nine out of ten, after all, although this section of the river is stable, but the boat is still dangerous in the dark, and if you are not careful, the boat will be capsized and killed, once a person falls into the water, there is no way to save it.

It's just that this kind of danger does not exist for the Sui army's Wuya ship, as long as the direction does not deviate too much, what kind of wind and waves can capsize the Wuya ship. Once the Wuya ship successfully boarded the ferry, with the strength of 800 elite sailors, it is very likely to successfully take Niuzhu Mountain, as long as Niuzhu Mountain is taken, tomorrow at dawn, the army can continue to land through the ferry.

However, all this with He Ruobi's advance attack, there are many variables, once the Chen army realizes that the attack on Guangling is only the beginning of the large-scale offensive of the Sui army, it will definitely strengthen the defense in various places, if the Sui army is discovered by the Chen army when it lands tonight, most of these 800 people will die.

"He Fubo, He Madman, if you can't succeed tonight, it's all because of you, and even if the official dies, he will go to the king of Hades to sue you." Han Baohu cursed fiercely in his heart.

Although it was dark night, the Wuya ship was running extremely smoothly, if it weren't for the sound of the rushing water and the whistling wind outside the ship, it would make people think that it was at home, in order to prevent the opposite Chen Jun from discovering the light, he could only light a small oil lamp inside the cabin, and most of the soldiers in the warehouse were next to each other and did not speak, showing the extremely high quality of these sailors.

"Bang!" There was a loud bang, and the whole cabin shook, "Boom, boom, boom." There was chaos in the whole cabin, some of the soldiers who were leaning against the cabin staggered, the weapons hanging on the wall also fell, and the speed of the ship seemed to slow down until it stopped completely.

Han Baohu stood up in embarrassment, even he didn't stand firm just now, it can be seen how big the shaking of the hull was, he just stood firm, and hurriedly shouted: "What's the matter, what's wrong?" ”

"My lord, I'm afraid I've hit a reef." A pro-soldier face

of the Tao. Now three-quarters of the way has been sailed, if the big ship is with the reef. It's a dilemma.

"No way, there used to be a lot of ships coming and going, and I've never heard of a reef." Li Jing added next to him.

After he and Han Shiyu returned from Chen State, they were reprimanded by Han Baohu, and even Han Baohu grounded them for a month, but. This punishment was exchanged for Chen Guo's trip. It's a bargain for both of them. The two of them intentionally or unintentionally concealed the experience of living in Chen Guo's Horse Mansion and getting acquainted with Princess Leyi, the youngest of Chen Guo, but they just reminisced silently in their hearts.

Han Shixuan said bravely: "Father, I'll go down and have a look." ”

"Hmph, it's not your turn here." Han Baohu said angrily, and glanced at the two pro-soldiers, who hurriedly borrowed the faint light, "Boom." Knock, knock" went to the cabin below.

This assault on Chen Guo became dangerous due to He Ruobi's early exposure, and Han Baohu resolutely did not let Li Jing and Han Shiyu join, but although these two people promised to hide on the boat first, it was not until after the boat was sailed that the two came to see Han Baohu, and Han Baohu had to accept the fact that the two were on the ship.

The pro-soldiers went down and did not come up for a while. Seeing that the battleship had not started for a long time. The sergeant on the ground began to stir, if the battleship sank, such a winter, no matter how good the water is, will drown in the river.

"Your Excellency. Chen's army drove a stake into the river, and our warship crashed into the stake. "After a long time, the soldiers finally returned to report.

Han Baohu's face was ugly, in order to confuse Nan Chen, the Sui army had been just bluffing, and the Wuya battleship had never been dispatched, so naturally there was no way to find out that the Chen army was laying a wooden stake by the river.

"How about the damage to the battleship?"

"Don't worry, my lord, our battleship has a double bottom compartment, even if the wooden stakes break the outer layer of the battleship, the battleship will not sink, the ship's boss has sent someone to take the golden-winged battleship around the front, it is estimated that it will take another half an hour to remove the wooden stakes stuck in the battleship, so that the battleship will move again." The pro-soldier replied.

"I know, the official ordered that everyone should not move in the cabin, and wait for half an hour to sail again." Han Baohu put his mind at ease, it is winter, the nights are long and the days are short, although two or three hours have passed since dark, but if you want to get light, there are at least four hours or more, and there is still time.

"Yes." After hearing that the boat could be restarted after half an hour, everyone fell silent.

Half an hour later, the battleship moved on time, went around the stakes in front of it and rowed down, "Bang." "There was another sound, and the battleship still touched the stake, however, due to the slowing down of the battleship, this .... 1 The collision damage is not large, and the battleship cannot be stuck, and the battleship continues to go down.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "I tried for miles in a row, and there were wooden stakes in front of me. The boss of the ship had no choice but to stop the battleship and send someone to ask Han Baohu: "My lord, the Wuya battleship is too big to drive, what should I do?" ”

"Leave the ship here and don't move, and the rest of the people will take the Goldfin Battleship ashore in turn." Han Baohu pondered for a moment and immediately gave an order.

Although 800 people were on the Wuya battleship, Han Baohu also considered that in case he couldn't land directly from the ferry, the Wuya battleship would not be able to land, so he also brought five small golden-winged warships that could only seat 20 people behind the Wuya battleship.

Now that the most dangerous section of the river has been crossed, although there is still a danger in changing to a small boat, but the danger has been greatly reduced, the first batch of 100 sailors were immediately selected, these sailors have also lived on the water for at least four or five years, but there is no need to match sailors and ship bosses, and the five gold-winged warships broke away from the big ships in the black and sailed away.

After a long time, the fire on the shore flashed away, showing a signal of safety, and it took more than two hours for all the people to go ashore, except for four people who were knocked into the water because of the big waves and could not be found, the rest of the Sui army crossed the river safely, so that the Sui army was unexpectedly so important that the ferry was not guarded by a Chen army, and there was only an empty military camp near the ferry.

This phenomenon is so weird that Sui Jun doesn't know whether to surprise himself for going ashore safely, or whether to worry about falling into the trap set by Chen Jun, as if there is a monster staring at them with a huge mouth open in the dark, wanting to swallow them in one gulp.

"My lord, what should I do?"

Although even if they were standing nearby, they could only vaguely see the outline of a person, everyone still tried to look in the direction of Han Baohu with their eyes wide open, waiting for their boss to give an order.

Because it took too much time to cross the river, there is only one hour left to leave Liang, if you don't hurry up to climb Niuzhu Mountain and wipe out the Chen army in the mountain, it will be too late after dawn.

"Up the hill!" Han Baohu gritted his teeth and ordered, no matter what Longtan Tiger's den was hidden in front of him, he had to break his scalp inside.

Hundreds of Sui troops lined up in a long snake formation and groped their way up the mountain along the only mountain road, not daring to make a slightly louder sound, otherwise once the defenders were alarmed, as long as they threw some rolling logs and stones down the mountain, the Sui army under the mountain would soon suffer heavy casualties.

You can already vaguely see the torches lit on the mountain, and the Sui army in front of you didn't dare to come out, so they leaned down and crawled slowly.

Finally, the Sui army arrived outside the shadow of the firelight, and the Sui army at the forefront looked around suspiciously, and the gate of the Chen army's camp was clearly visible in front of them, and the torches around them still made the sound of peeling and peeling from time to time, but no matter how they looked for it, they couldn't see the figure, and the camp was also quiet.

This situation is even more strange than the ferry at the bottom of the mountain, no one can still say it under the mountain, it can't be that there is no one on the mountain, who lit those torches, everyone felt creepy.

Several Sui soldiers bravely walked into the firelight, and slowly approached the camp gate, until the camp gate was opened, these Sui soldiers were happy, and the wine jar outside the camp gate was thrown to the east and west, and there was a burst of snoring sound from a wooden house near the camp gate.
