Chapter 388: Xiliang Xing (20)

Lake Surabaya. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, it was two days later, on the south shore of Surabaya Lake, there was a barren mountain, this barren mountain made the southwest of Surabaya Lake have no shore, and if you want to go from Xiaoxian to Longxi, you can go along the Surabaya Lake under the barren mountain, and swim for more than 40 miles.

On this day, a small boat less than four feet wide appeared on the lake, and four men in gray clothes rowed on it, and the boat moved quickly from top to bottom.

Suddenly, someone screamed, pointed to the distance and said, "Look, it looks like an official ship?" ”

The four of them raised their heads at the same time, and saw countless boats in the distance heading here, with flags on them, a big 'Han' character, and some boats with the word 'Luo', fluttering in the wind, extremely majestic, the four of them were stunned at the same time, and quickly turned around.

"Quick, go back and report to the commander."

"Hurry up, hurry up..."

The four of them were traveling in a small boat, the small one could not be smaller, flexible and changeable, and the action was fast, and in the blink of an eye, the small boat went out for a mile or two and disappeared on the river.

At the same time, Luo Yi and Han Wu also saw these four people, and both of them were a little puzzled, how could there be people near the bottom of the barren mountain? Generally, in a place like this, even if a big ship or a group travels, they don't dare to come, because there are reefs in many places, and even Luo Yi and Han Wu are careful and careful.

Besides, how can ordinary people or fishermen come back here to fish, you must know that there are no people within a radius of more than 40 miles.

Luo Yi frowned and said, "General Han, you said a few days ago that there is a stream of water thieves in this Surabaya Lake, I think we will have to meet them for a while today." ”

Han Wudao: "Do you suspect that the boat just now is that gang of water thieves?" ”

Luo Yi smiled: "Then what's not? Who but the water thieves will come to the foot of this barren mountain? ”

Han Wudao: "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Luo Yi thought about it, and now he is in a hurry to go to Longxi, if he starts a war with the water thieves, it will be inconvenient, but if he doesn't care, he feels that he can't do it, and after thinking for a while, Luo Yi said: "Then let's go and scare them, I guess this group of water thieves should build the water village at the foot of the mountain not far ahead, let's stop the war ship outside, hehe... See how they react? It's best to directly surrender this gang of water thieves, and save me from sending someone to crusade in the future. ”

"Good idea."

In fact, Han Wu didn't look at the water thieves at all, as Luo Yi said, as soon as dozens of warships stopped outside the water thieves' water village, the water thieves must have been so frightened that they peed their pants directly, and they didn't even have to fight.

..........

Fifteen miles away.

There is really a group of water thieves here, the four people on the small boat just now are out on patrol, if it weren't for a large number of officers and soldiers, they would patrol around the lake, and then return to the water village.

The water village is built on the mountain, not too big, with more than 30 houses and two or three open spaces; On the periphery of the water village, there is a large forest that surrounds and covers the water village, making it not so easy to expose.

The four thieves docked the boat at the edge of the woods and ran up quickly to a house.

"Newspaper... Report.... ”

"Come in."

Inside the room, a majestic voice rang out.

There were seven or eight people inside, the first one was about twenty years old, with a face like a crown, long hair and a shawl, extremely handsome, and six people sitting on either side below, facing the ferocious, each with its own characteristics, and everyone had a table in front of them, and everyone was having lunch.

The life of the water thieves is really good, chicken, duck and fish, everything, and they also drink the famous drunken fairy wine.

At this time, a person ran in from outside and said eagerly: "Report to the commander, we patrolled the lake and found a large number of officers and soldiers, coming towards our water village. ”

"Oh? Officers and soldiers are coming? ”

Someone said in amazement.

A man on the left asks, "Where is it?" How many people are there? ”

The man who came in replied: "Commander, they have already arrived at a place ten miles away, and they can't count how many, but they can't see the head, and the generals with the words 'Han' and 'Luo' are in sight. ”

"It's them..."

At this moment, the leader, who had not spoken, chuckled twice, stood up from his position above, took a sip of wine, and set the bottle aside.

Someone asked, "Big brother, do you know who it is?" ”

He said: "Of course I know who I am flying solo, I never fight uncertain battles, and I already know myself and my opponent." ”

"The people who came were Luo Yi and Han Wu, these two people, seven days ago, they brought 20,000 cavalry to camp thirty miles away, because there were no warships, so they never crossed the river, I thought they might go around from the land, but I didn't expect to go to the Yangtze River in Wuyang County to get a boat, and they came straight to me."

Flying solo's words shocked everyone in the hall, they didn't know about the 20,000 cavalry, and when they heard it suddenly, they couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

"Two... 20,000 people... So much. ”

"Big brother, what should we do then?"

Shan Fei walked to the left hand side, patted the shoulder of the big man who had just spoken, and smiled: "What, are you afraid?" ”

The big man patted his chest and said loudly: "Joke, how can I be afraid!" I was just surprised. ”

Shan Fei nodded and said: "It's okay not to be afraid, the army of the Tang Dynasty, Lao Tzu is to see one and destroy the other, and he will not show mercy, this Luo Yi is the Hou Ye of the Tang Dynasty, and Han Wu is the general of Xiliang, they are not good things, let's do a big vote today." ”

"Get up." Shan Fei said to the water thief who was kneeling on the ground to report.

The water thief got up and slowly exited the lobby, waiting for news outside.

Hearing Solo Fei's words, everyone in the hall was shocked; They knew that Shan Fei had a grudge against Datang, and he had never been soft on officers and soldiers, but in the past, he only fought against small forces in the government and never dared to face the regular army, but now, Shan Fei actually had to deal with a huge army of 20,000 imperial courts, which made everyone very worried.

The big man before said, "Big... Big brother, there are less than 500 people in our cottage, but 20,000 people! This... The gap is also too big. ”

Shan Fei snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of, Surabaya Lake is our territory!" ”

"Okay, don't drink, listen to my arrangement."

Solo Fei looked serious, asked people to move the wine table down, and then took out the map and placed it on the largest table above.

Everyone gathered around and looked at Solo Fei suspiciously.

Shan Fei pointed to the northeast corner of the map and said: "In this area, which is the place with the most reefs, large warships can't move at all, Liu Er, you immediately go and order twenty small boats, bring two hundred people, and bring the enemy here." ”

"The rest of the people come with me, come with me to set up an ambush here, let's prepare a big meal for this group of officers and soldiers, let them know how good we are."

A thin man touched his chin and said, "Big brother, what if we fail, after all, there are 20,000 people, can we win?" ”

Shan Fei said: "It's impossible to win, but it's okay to make them suffer a little." ”

"When we're done, they will dive away, and with their knowledge of Surabaya Lake, they won't find us, so don't worry."

Thinking that all the brothers in the water village can dive, all the commanders are slightly relieved, if they really can't win, it's not too late to retreat, and there will indeed be no losses.

Liu Er said: "Okay, let's listen to the eldest brother." ”

"You, you, and you, come with me, order all the people and go!"

A few people followed Liu Er out of the house without much doubt.

Everyone had no objections, Shan Fei looked silent, put away the map, and said, "Go!" ”

..........

Half an hour later.

Luo Yi and Han Wu were finally approaching the water village in front of them, but until this time, the two of them didn't know the real location of the water village, because they didn't send anyone to investigate, and they didn't know that five miles ahead, it was the lair of Shan Fei and the others.

Along the way, both of them were discussing how to clean up the water thieves, how to arrange if they surrendered, and so on...

But no matter how they discussed, they didn't think that they might be defeated by the water thieves, after all, there were tens of thousands of troops behind them, which was not a small strength, and the strength was enough to destroy anything.

"Huh? Looks like the water thieves? ”

Luo Yi suddenly sighed lightly, and watched dozens of small warships in the distance, passing by in a flash, and scattered at a touch, as if they were fleeing for their lives, and they were quickly turning the rudder and running to the northwest.

Han Wu also spotted the dozens of small boats, and immediately shouted to the herald behind him: "Quick, immediately catch up and intercept that gang of water thieves!" ”

"Yes."

The herald picked up the command flag, stood on a high place, and commanded all the warships that came behind, all of them followed Luo Yi and Han Wu's main ships, and ran to the northwest.

pursued forward for more than ten miles, but never caught up.

It's also strange to say, the enemy is not far away, just a dozen zhang apart, but how can not catch up, even if sometimes the distance is shortened, but the other party's speed is accelerated, sometimes I feel that I can't catch up, the other party is close again, anyway, if it is away.

At this moment, Han Wu, who had been in a hundred battles, was a little vigilant, and he suddenly felt that the enemy seemed to be deliberately luring them, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, he just didn't want to lose it, and he didn't want to escape.

Looking at the other party's ships again, they are all small boats, which should be more than half faster than large ships in terms of normal speed, but now they have run for more than ten miles, and they still haven't escaped.

Isn't this a deliberate lure?

"Wait, wait..."

Suddenly, with a move from Han Wu's hand, all the warships stopped.

Han Wu's expression was solemn, and he stared into the distance with his eyes.

Luo Yi was puzzled and said anxiously: "General Han, is there something wrong?" If you don't chase after you, the enemy will flee. ”

Han Wudao: "General Luo, don't you think that the enemy seems to be luring us?" ”

"I suspect there must be an ambush ahead."

Luo Yi didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, or rather, he didn't believe in an ambush at all, and even if there was, Luo Yi didn't think that he could do any harm to the 20,000 elite soldiers.

Luo Yi chuckled lightly and said, "General Han, you are too worried, what ambush will there be on this calm water?" Besides, even if there is an ambush, we have an army of 20,000, so what is there to fear? There are only three or five hundred water thieves, so can they still destroy my army of 20,000? ”

Han Wu thought for a moment and muttered, "Destroy my 20,000 troops... It's really impossible. ”

After a while, he looked firm and said, "Okay, then let's go up and take a look and see what the hell the water thieves are doing!" ”

With a wave of Han Wu's hand, 20,000 troops and 130 warships continued to move forward.

And ahead, not surprisingly, the speed of the twenty small boats also slowed down, as if they were waiting for something, and the people standing above still looked behind from time to time, and when Luo Yi and Han Wu continued to chase quickly with the soldiers, their speed increased again, and they quickly distanced themselves from Luo Yi and Han Wu.

At this time, Han Wu had already completely determined that the enemy was luring them into being fooled, and there was no need to doubt this!!

But as Luo Yi said, there are not many water thieves on Surabaya Lake, only three or five hundred people, what the hell can they do? Do you dare to fight with an army of 20,000? Isn't that looking for death?

Besides, even if he is ambushed, Han Wu is sure that he can defeat his opponent, and he doesn't care about it in his heart if he has only five hundred people.

To put it bluntly, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, I prefer to go to the tiger mountains, just to see how the hundreds of people in the area set up an ambush and how powerful it is.

With such a thought, Han Wu did not hesitate any longer, and urged the heralds behind him to order all the warships to speed up.

Time passed minute by minute, and in a blink of an eye, it was already two pillars of incense.

Following the twenty small boats, they had already run a long way, about ten miles, and had entered a calm lake.

Suddenly, the twenty boats picked up speed and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Luo Yi and Han Wu both felt bad at the same time, if there was an ambush for the enemy, then this ambush was about to appear.

"Be careful, pass the order, be on guard."

Han Wu said vigilantly.

The ship was still moving fast, chasing the enemy in front of him who had already run away.

Luo Yi observed around, although there was nothing abnormal, Luo Yi was still like Han Wu in his heart, and felt that the enemy had already been prepared. But both of them are not sure, and they don't know what the opponent is doing.
