Chapter 419: Big Wave
Probably the happiest thing in the world is that I'm standing in front of you and you don't know me.
For Xu Jingye, the most painful thing is indeed why he has already caught people, but he didn't do it immediately, but wanted to capture them alive, so that they had a chance to escape.
After discovering that Le Buping and the members of the Nighthawk rushed to the Yangtze River, Xu Jingye immediately ordered the archers to release their arrows, wanting to shoot them on the spot, but unfortunately, the members of the Nighthawk were too close to the Yangtze River, and they were all practitioners, and their speed was superb, and when Xu Jingye was stunned and gave the order to shoot arrows, except for a few unlucky people, the rest of the people had all jumped into the Yangtze River.
"Bastard, bastard, damn it, damn it, it's unreasonable for them to escape with the fat in their hands."
Because he was too angry, Xu Jingye already seemed a little incoherent when he spoke, and he didn't know if he was cursing others or himself.
"The Metropolitan Governor also asks to take a break from the wrath of the thunder, these people will flee if they escape, anyway, they are just some small minions, kill or let go, it has little to do with the overall situation." Afraid that Xu Jingye would have something bad at this time, Xue Zhongzhang opened his mouth to persuade.
It's a pity that Xu Jingye, who attached great importance to Xue Zhongzhang in the past, even if he was angry, he would barely hold back in front of Xue Zhongzhang, but today he uncharacteristically reprimanded, "Rest your anger, what is there to rest, yes, they are small minions, but they do have a certain bait for fishing, how can they be adjusted to a big fish without bait, and now that the bait is gone, what to use to fish, you can't use it." ”
It's no wonder that Xu Jingye is so annoyed, in the strategy Xu Jingyou gave him, it was explained that Duan Jian was extremely cunning, and it was difficult to lure him into the urn, and this time the strategy to catch the unequal people was also a good way that Xu Jingye came up with with a lot of effort and a painful head, but now, this opportunity has completely failed, not only failed, but also made Duan Jian aware of it, and then, in the face of a Duan Jian who has already been vigilant, it is difficult to eradicate him.
Regarding Xu Jingye's reprimand, although Xue Zhongzhang felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he also knew that at this time, it was not for this trivial matter to make a conflict, and the top priority was to try his best to eradicate Duan Jian, the thorn who had been making trouble for them, otherwise, even if they crossed the river and went north, it would be difficult to have a decisive battle with the Tang army with peace of mind.
"The Metropolitan Governor wants to catch Duan Jian's house." Xue Zhongzhang asked.
"Yes, it's a pity that everything has come to naught now, these people have fled, and Duan Jian is afraid that he will also flee far away, and there is very little chance to find a chance to catch him." Xu Jingye sighed.
"Most of the governors are not excellent, as the saying goes, 'there is no way to be endless', according to the subordinates, this matter may not be." Xue Zhongzhang said.
"Well, you can't help it." Hearing Xue Zhongzhang's words, Xu Jingye, who was full of despair, was shocked, and said with anticipation in his tone.
"The subordinates are not very sure, but if they are not mistaken, this matter is still somewhat possible." Xue Zhongzhang said.
"Oh, say, come quickly, so-and-so should listen to it, what is it and the plan, you say it quickly, if it is really useful, so-and-so will not forget your credit." Xu Jingye grabbed Xue Zhongzhang's arm and asked with a full face.
"Dadu Governor Mingjian, his subordinates think so, these black-clothed people came to attack our army's camp at night this time, the purpose must be to burn down the ferry boat for our army to cross the river, but you also know that there are more than 100,000 people in our army, and under the command of Duan Jian, less than 20,000 people have died, and 20,000 people want to exterminate more than 100,000 of my people, which is simply whimsical.
But if they didn't exterminate us, why would they burn our army's ships, you know, if our army really can't cross the river, they will definitely vent all their anger on Runzhou, and then their lives will not be easy, this kind of thankless thing, even a fool will not do it, and Duan Jian is definitely not a fool, why would he do such a thing.
Thinking about it, the subordinates feel that it is very possible for that period of Jane's youthful temperament to be impulsive in order to make meritorious contributions, of course, unlike ordinary teenagers, although Duan Jian is impulsive, but he is still a little restrained, they know that their strength is too different from ours, therefore, they want to make meritorious contributions to the cause of wisdom to find another way, and burn our army's ferry, we will not be able to return to Yangzhou on time, the Tang army can easily capture Yangzhou, without Yangzhou, we can only passively face the battle, If you want to win, the chance of victory will become extremely slim, in that case, if you really wait until the Tang army goes south and annihilates us, Duan Jian can rely on these feats to be promoted to the rank and knight. Xue Zhongzhang said.
I have to say that Xue Zhongzhang was able to move Xu Jingye to give up the plan to go north and go south directly from Wei Siwen's hands, and he was still extremely talented, and his words almost guessed Duan Jian's thoughts.
"Now that you know this, you can talk about how you can get the bait again and drop Duan Jian out." After listening to Xue Zhongzhang's analysis, Xu Jingye also secretly admired him in his heart, but he had to interrupt Xue Zhongzhang's discussion, now he is not interested in everything, he just wants to find out Duan Jian, capture him alive or kill himself, so as to find an outlet for his mistakes in Runzhou City.
"This is what I want to say, through those judgments just now, my subordinates have a great deal of confidence to tell the Metropolitan Governor that the Duan Jane must be nearby, paying attention to us, if the Metropolitan Governor really wants to catch that Duan Jian, as long as he sends someone to search for it within a few miles around, there will definitely be a good harvest."
"Sima Xue's words are true."
"Yes or no, the general will know as soon as he tries."
...........................
Just when Le Buping was surrounded by Xu Jun's soldiers, Duan Jian and the others were also engaged in a fierce discussion about whether they should rescue Le Buping, but before they could discuss a result, Le Buping and others had already rushed into the Yangtze River and disappeared into the rolling Yangtze River in an instant.
"This ...... This... This, hey, it's all the responsibility of a certain person, a certain should have thought of it a long time ago, after a few night attacks, how could Xu Jingye relax his camp, if something happened to the unequal person this time, it would be difficult for a certain person to forgive himself for the rest of his life. Like Xu Jun's soldiers, Duan Jian and the others were also surprised by the actions of those people, and then they were moved, and Duan Jian even had a line of tears dripping from the corners of his eyes.
"Lang Jun, don't be like this, although they jumped into the Yangtze River, it doesn't mean that they are all dead, you know, now the Yangtze River is dry, the amount of water is much less than in summer, and they are all people with kung fu, and the water is also good, I'm afraid it won't be long before they come back from elsewhere." In order to comfort Duan Jian, Duan Shui, Zhou Xing and others opened their mouths to persuade.
"Now that Le Buping has lived and died, it seems that our whereabouts have been controlled by the Xu army, let's retreat quickly, if the Xu army attacks at this time, it will be bad." Being persuaded by everyone, Duan Jian quickly recovered, and immediately thought of the next crisis he was about to encounter.
Duan Jian woke up quickly, but Xu Jun's movements were not slow, they had already prepared, under Xu Jingye's order, under the leadership of their respective futures, they began to search around, looking at the detailed appearance, not to mention Duan Jian and the more than 10,000 troops under his command, even a mouse could not escape Xu Jun's eyes.
"This ...... What can I do, how did they react so quickly. ”
Xu Jun's sudden action disrupted the actions of Duan Jian and the others, after all, the soldiers of the Xu Army did not know their specific location now, if they acted rashly at this time, Xu Jun was afraid that he would be able to find out their location immediately, and when the time came, the powerful Xu Jun wanted to exterminate them, that is, the matter of raising his finger.
"Now it seems that we can't go, tell all the officers and men that without an order, no one is allowed to act rashly, otherwise, military law will be involved." Duan Jian ordered with a serious face.
One mile, two miles,.....
As the search range of the soldiers of the Xu Army became larger and larger, the hiding position of Duan Jian and the others was not far from the leakage, fortunately, in order to avoid being discovered by the spies of the Xu Army, Duan Jian and the others stopped the army three miles away, except that a few of them were closest to the camp of the Xu Army, so as to observe the movements of the Xu Army, which was also an unexpected joy.
It's just that I don't know how long this unexpected joy will last.
Two miles, two and a half miles,............
Seeing that the soldiers of Xu Jun were about to discover the hiding place of Duan Jian and the others, an accident suddenly happened.
"Boom Boom"
I don't know why there was a loud noise, and I suddenly remembered it from a distance.
Hearing this loud noise, many of the soldiers of the Xu Army thought that it was caused by the wind or the cracking of a certain mountain, but as the sound of 'boom boom' became louder and louder, getting closer and closer, everyone realized that things were probably not so simple, and something was likely to happen.
"It's not good, water, water, it's a big water, it's a big water, run away!"
A wild shout suddenly remembered, alarming the people who were already in a panic, and many people looked up and were so frightened that all the three souls and seven spirits left their bodies.
They saw that on the Yangtze River not far away, a black and bright giant thing was galloping towards them, because the sky was too dark, and when they were far away, they couldn't see what this giant thing was, but when this thing got closer, they finally understood that this was not a giant thing, or that it was not a thing, but a huge, monstrous wave that was several zhang high, because the place where the Xu army camp was located was the low-lying place of Xijin Gudu, and if the Yangtze River flooded, it was used to discharge floods. The place where the stability of Xijin Gudu is guaranteed, so the object of the big waves rushing is the place where Xu Jun is.
The so-called water and fire are ruthless, many people are very aware of the power of flames, whether it is a large fire or a small fire, as long as it is touched, it will definitely be injured, but for water, many people are a little dismissive, after all, water is the most precious thing for human beings, without water, people can not live at all.
People are not afraid of water at all, but many people forget that everything is not important on the outside, and finally on the inside, water looks very weak, and it does not do much harm to human beings, but this is only limited to ordinary water, if it really touches the water and gets angry, it is more terrible than anything terrible in the world.
And the big waves are one of the most tyrannical expressions of water.
People who are active next to the Yangtze River know that when the Yangtze River is in waves, it is the most dangerous time for the Yangtze River, and at this time, no matter how good the water is, the sailors will hide at home and dare not enter the water.
Even the water-based sailors did not dare to enter the water, let alone the many soldiers of the Xu Army who had never even seen the huge waves.
For a while, all the soldiers of the Xu army could no longer care about looking for the Tang army that was hiding, and one by one they spread their feet and fled, a small number of them may have understood the high tide or the big waves, therefore, the direction they ran in was some high ground, except for these few people, most of the rest of the Xu army were aimlessly scared away everywhere, and even many people didn't know whether their heads were dizzy or stupid, and they actually ran in the direction where the big waves were coming.
"It's ....... This...... What the hell is going on, why is there suddenly such a monstrous wave rushing over, don't you all say that it is already October, the Yangtze River has dried up, why is there such a big river, this time it is over, it is all over, more than 100,000 troops, in the face of the power of the sky, who can resist it. Looking at the swarming waves, Xu Jingye muttered with a calm look on his face.
It's not that Xu Jingye has completely calmed down when the matter is approaching, but that the blow he suffered today is too huge, and he has been completely numb and expressionless.
Although Xu Jingye was stupid, the others still reacted quickly, and there was a general who commanded the guards, either on their backs or on their backs, and led Xu Jingye and a group of high-ranking members of the Xu army to run towards a high ground.
Although the speed of the giant wave will slowly weaken with the passage of time, but now this big wave is running, therefore, its speed does not decrease or decrease, but will get faster and faster, and in a few breaths, the huge wave that originally seemed to be still on the edge of the sky has arrived in front of everyone.
"Boom, boom, boom"
"Bang Bang Bang"
Everywhere the waves passed, everything was destroyed, and in the blink of an eye, it became an ocean, except for the occasional few tenacious trees that could show their branches, all the things in the lower places were no longer visible, and none of the soldiers who were originally in these places were able to surface.
It's not that they don't understand water, but under the blow of the huge waves, which weighs no less than 10,000 tons, let alone a human, even an elephant will be beaten to pieces in the blink of an eye.
