Chapter 40 explores the water village again

Looking at Han Li, who was drenched all over, Chen Zichen knew that it must be Han Li who had led someone to find the water bandits. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Now that Du Bantian has pulled out his army of water bandits, only the old, weak, sick and disabled women are left in the water village.

Han Li did not live up to Chen Zichen's high hopes, and took a few people to explore a few Jiangxin Prefectures before discovering the location of Du Bantian's Water Village.

Chen Zichen immediately ordered: "Han Li, I have appointed you with five hundred sailors to go and attack Du Bantian's water village, but you must not be greedy for war, you can only do something to burn his granary and burn his residence, which is the residence of all water bandits." Retreat as soon as the thing is done. ”

Han Li took the order and picked five hundred veterans, and set off quickly.

Chen Zichen knew that it was of course useless to burn Du for half a day, but he understood that the effect was very good.

So after Han Li left, he ordered Chen Zichen to lead two thousand sailors to make a detour to Du Bantian's return road to ambush.

Chen Zichen expected that Du would return to his water village in half a day, because the water army was not like the infantry, and he could set up a tent wherever he went. The maintenance of ships and the life of water bandits are the biggest problems.

Moreover, if he abandons the water village, then this war will not be fought, they will stay on the water all day, and sooner or later they will be surrounded and killed by the water army.

After careful consideration, Chen Zichen ordered 5,000 soldiers and horses, and went out in the boat. Leaving three thousand in the camp, Chen Zichen considered that there was also a military division among the bandits, so just in case.

"Du Bantian, General Ben gives you a chance, how about surrendering?" Chen Zichen said to Du Bantian across the Chu Shui in the distance.

Du Bantian glanced at Chen Zichen coldly, and laughed: "You dare to argue with me even if you don't have any hair?" Forgot yesterday's lesson? ”

Chen Zichen listened to Du Bantian's words and knew that Du Bantian would not accept Zhao'an.

Xu Mao, the bandit strategist, stood on the side of the boat and looked at Chen Zichen, who was smiling opposite, and suddenly felt a sense of ominousness.

He looked at the ship on the opposite side carefully, and found that not only were the troops much smaller than yesterday, but the most important thing was that the people who stood on both sides of Chen Zichen yesterday were also gone, one of them he knew, it was Han Li, the general of the navy, but now he was not present. He suddenly felt bad.

"Big boss, there are two less generals on the side of the navy, I think there is something strange about this." Military advisor Xu Mao said to Du Bantian.

"Hmm." Du took a closer look for a long time, and sure enough, there were two generals missing, but he didn't care much, and said lightly: "The military advisor is too worried, we have set up cards on top of this Chushui, even a water duck can't fly over, I'm afraid that he is two big people." What's more, what can two people do? ”

Du Bantian didn't care about what the military advisor Xu Mao said, but he believed in his own control very much.

"General, there are water bandits ahead." A sailor said softly to Lu Huan.

Lu Huan took two thousand sailors, and the momentum was huge, so he was cautious all the way, for fear of disturbing the water card set up by Du Bantian, and the more than two thousand boats came all the way from the branch road and did not know how many primitive plants were destroyed, and many birds hiding in the reeds were scared to fly away.

Lu Huan has no choice, no matter how difficult the road is, he must finish it, otherwise he will delay the military situation, which is a big crime. He couldn't afford it.

Lu Huan ordered everyone to be silent, just lay an ambush here, and don't care about the water bandits outside, large and small clippers, and flexibly hide in the reeds.

The ripples on the surface of the water aroused the vigilance of the water bandits, and the water bandits looked back and saw a water duck speeding away. I think it was affected by Lu Huan's big move, but the water bandits didn't care much.

Chen Zichen instructed the lieutenant generals left behind by Han Li beside him to organize a clipper shooting, not to get close to the range of the bandits, and just scare them.

Several clippers galloped close to the boats of the water bandits, and Du Bantian had deliberately made a handful of them since he knew the power of the crossbow yesterday, and shot an arrow at the rower of a clipper.

The arrow feather broke through the wind barrier and inserted it into the rowman's chest with precision, and the rower's eyes cracked, revealing the incredible, and then plunged headlong into the water, and the other rower wanted to pull him, but the next arrow also killed him.

This arrow was not shot by Du Bantian, but by Yao Sanjiang. Yao Sanjiang also saw that this thing was novel, and he finally got one to play with last night.

"It's much better than my broadsword, but it hurts a little bit to stare at it." After Yao Sanjiang shot over the boatman of the water army, he said with some complaints.

When the sailor soldiers saw that the other party was so powerful, they immediately turned around and came back. Chen Zichen looked at the clipper that had lost its rower, and he didn't feel good in his heart.

Sure enough, within a few strokes, all the people on the boat fell into Chu Shui, and two of them died tragically on the clipper.

"Hahaha, little doll, abandon the city and surrender quickly." Du Bantian saw that three of the people in the boatload died in his hands, and shouted to Chen Zichen with a provocative smile.

Chen Zichen said coldly: "I will get the body back later." ”

Seeing that Chen Zichen didn't have a big reaction, Xu Mao, the water bandit military master, suddenly felt that something was wrong, and asked, "Old Yao, is that water army general Han Li also familiar with Chu Shui's waterways?" ”

Yao Sanjiang fiddled with the strong crossbow in his hand, mumbled, and glanced ahead from time to time.

Sure enough, as he guessed, the military advisor Xu Mao immediately said to Du Bantian: "Big boss, quickly turn around and go back to Shuizhai, and Shuizhai will not be guaranteed at night." ”

Du Bantian put away the strong crossbow and frowned, just now he heard Xu Mao ask Yao Sanjiang, so he said: "You mean that the water army will sneak attack our water village?" ”

"It's not possible, it's certain." Military advisor Xu Mao said convincingly.

Looking at the sailor who had just been shot by himself, and then at Chen Zichen, who was smiling at him, Du Bantian still had a trace of hesitation.

It just so happened that a clipper boat came from the rear and reported that the water village had been attacked. Du Bantian glanced at Chen Zichen viciously and ordered him to turn around immediately.

Yao Sanjiang also glanced at Chen Zichen in surprise.

The military advisor Xu Mao looked a little anxious.

As their base camp, the water village cannot tolerate the slightest mistake, otherwise the entire water bandit will be hit hard. Originally, he suggested that Du Bantian and Yao Sanjiang stay together, but seeing that both of them were coming, there was no way, so they came together, and what he was most worried about was about to happen.

Chen Zichen saw Du Bantian turn around and gallop, and immediately ordered to follow them closely, and quickly approached, and kept shooting arrows at them.

As a result, many water bandits were shot into the water, and now that they had changed direction, the crossbow naturally had not had time to be transferred, and the ship was not easy to aim at the gallop.

The arrows fired from both sides were intertwined like a rain of arrows.

Chen Zichen looked at the arrow feathers floating on the water, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.

Du Bantian was a little anxious, how could he not know the importance of the water village. It seems that this time it was a mistake.

Xu Mao glanced back at Chen Zichen, who was chasing after him, and suddenly had other alertness, so he muttered a few words to Yao Sanjiang's mouth. Nodding at him.

Xu Mao was afraid that the water army had already controlled the water village, and when the time came, it would be possible for the entire army to be wiped out.

Suddenly, in front, the bandit ships in front slowed down, and Chen Zichen naturally slowed down, and it was not good to get too close.

It turned out that he had encountered a roadblock, and it was Lu Huan who was ambushed here. When Lu Huan saw a speedboat speeding past here, he knew that Han Li's side was starting, so when the clipper boat passed, he came out to deal with a few water bandits, and then let the sailors be distributed on both sides.

He led a thousand sailors on the waterway, drawing his bow and waiting.

There was no superfluous nonsense in "shooting", Lu Huan gave an order, and arrows fell from the sky.

The water bandit was caught off guard, a little impatient, and then looked behind him, and Chen Zichen was pressing tightly.

Chen Zichen ordered the arrows to be released, and they were attacked from both sides.

Du Bantian ordered to drive the boat with all his strength and rush over. The black pressure rushed forward, but the sailors who were ambushed on both sides of Chu Shui also began to shoot arrows, they shot arrows that burned fire, and they were extinguished when they flew into Chu Shui, but it was troublesome to fly on the water bandits' boats.

Although he was calculated by Chen Zichen, Du Bantian had the advantage of numbers, and after a while, the land of war was already in a sea of fire, and a large number of ships fell into Chu Shui. There are constantly water bandits fluttering in Chu Shui. Chen Zichen is not so kind, Lu Huan is more direct, and directly throws arrows into the water.

With the advantage of numbers, Du Bantian finally broke out of the pinching circle, but the loss was not small.

Chen Zichen glanced at Lu Huan appreciatively, and the two converged and chased Du for a long time.

But I didn't know that some people left quietly...
