Chapter 254: The Battle of the Xianghe River (8)
In the middle and lower reaches of the Xiang River, there is a fleet of boats. Under the cover of night, if not carefully recognized. It's easy for people to subconsciously ignore it.
In the fleet, hurried footsteps sounded, and a soldier walked quickly: "General Qiyu, the situation is not optimistic. The water village has been captured by the enemy. Now General Ishan's headquarters is nowhere to be found. I'm afraid they will be more than lucky."
"Report ...... General Qiyu, the Dali army is in the middle of the stream, building a pontoon bridge. It is the posture of attacking our army's camp and approaching the royal capital." Another soldier hurried into the tent to give a report.
A military general slowly turned around, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked at the group of generals standing at the head of the group, his brows furrowed slightly: "At first, I thought that General Chang asked me to lead the sailors here, making a big fuss." Now it seems that Ben was mistaken."
"The general doesn't have to blame himself, now that we are here, we will naturally not let Dali succeed."
"Thousands of calculations, it is still General Hechang, and his skills are superior."
"The generals of Dali must never have dreamed that our country's sailors are eyeing them here."
"The war is tight downstream, and we can't delay too much here."
"After all, the downstream is the main battlefield, where can it be so can't, there is no figure of my sailor."
"The general also asks for an order, let's pinch these flies to death".
“……“。
looked at the generals in front of him, and asked for battle. The military general slapped the table in front of him heavily, and his eyes showed a cold light: "They don't want to build a pontoon bridge, then the general will satisfy them and wait for the order,."
"The last general will wait for the order". A group of generals fell to their knees one after another, respectfully listening to the military orders.
The general glanced at the generals in front of him, and there was a hint of blade in his tone: "This general ordered, when they build the pontoon bridge to the middle of the Xiang River, you will attack immediately."
"The last general will be ordered to ......". A famous general received orders one after another, and he came out one after another.
Qi Huaiyuan stood on the bridge, watched the soldiers, and threw the iron locks into the Xiang River. A section of pontoon bridge appeared above the water: "Uncle Jia......".
"It's not big or small, this is in the army, and you have to call General Jia." Without waiting for Qi Huaiyuan to say the following words, Jia Fu pretended to have a serious face and glared at Qi Huaiyuan fiercely.
Urging Huaiyuan smiled and scratched his head embarrassedly. How do you look at it and how do you feel, calling Jia Fu a general, a little awkward: "General...... We are here, building pontoon bridges, why are there no enemies".
"Enemies? The downstream is in a big war, and the upstream is in a raid. You treat them as three-headed and six-armed, and can do everything. In just one night, how could they know that the water village had been lost." Jia Fu didn't care and waved his hand.
Zhao Jian thought of the reinforcements behind him, and nodded approvingly: "Don't talk about Jiaozhi now, support the midstream." I'm afraid that on the other side, the camp of the Jiaozhi army is empty. Otherwise, how could Master Zhou say. The purpose of the 30,000 reinforcements was to raid the camp of the Cochin army."
"We are here, and now we can count as the safest place. I'm sleepy, I'll take a nap first, something is calling me." Jafu yawned and sat on the pontoon, his eyes slightly closed, and after a while a faint snoring came out. Tonight was too tired, from rushing to the middle of the stream to supervise the battle, to luring the enemy, capturing the village, and then starting to build the pontoon bridge non-stop. Such a tight rhythm is indeed a bit difficult for a businessman.
Zhao Jian and Qi Huaiyuan, listening to Jia Fu, the faint snoring, will laugh heartily. At this time, above the surface of the river, a flash of fire suddenly appeared, and the sailors of the Cochin Kingdom gradually revealed their outlines.
Urging Huaiyuan was shocked, and hurriedly pushed Jia Fu, who had just entered a dream: "Uncle Jia, Uncle Jia, the enemy's sailor has appeared, what should we do."
"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and let the sailors meet the enemy." Jia Fu was confused and talking nonsense. Then he opened his eyes and closed them again.
A soldier ran quickly, saw Jia Fu close his eyes, didn't have time to think about it, and reported loudly: "The general has a Jiaozhi national naval division on the water, how should we meet the enemy."
"Where's our sailor?". Jia Fu heard the loud voice and suddenly came to his senses. Hurriedly stood up and looked at the enemies that appeared on the water.
The soldier showed a look of embarrassment, and hurriedly replied: "General Qiyu, I am here in Dali, and there is no sailor."
"There is no sailor ......." Jia Fu showed a look of embarrassment, looking at the mighty five thousand soldiers and horses in front of him, who were originally busy on the pontoon bridge, but now some people turned their heads and stared at themselves.
Qi Huaiyuan was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, and hurriedly looked at Jia Fu: "Uncle Jia, let's withdraw, as long as we go ashore, they will take us, there is no way."
"If you withdraw, not only will your previous efforts be wasted, but if you don't get it right, you will be wiped out, after all, this place has reached the middle of the Xianghe River." Zhao Jian shook his head, and couldn't help but sigh, the sailor of Jiaozhi Country, the timing of coming out is really good.
Jia Fu measured the distance between the two sides in his heart, stomped his feet suddenly, and ordered the soldiers: "The left and right are just a death, and the order is to go down, and the whole army will speed up the construction of the pontoon bridge, even if it is death, the pontoon bridge must be built."
"Obey ......". The soldier received the order and hurriedly ran to the front to convey the military order.
On one of the warships of the Jiaozhi Naval Division, the military general looked at the Dali army that was building the pontoon bridge in front, not only did not retreat, but accelerated the speed of construction, and couldn't help but show a sneer. Facing the generals around him, he directly ordered: "Pass the order, set fire to the boat, and burn the pontoon bridge for me."
"The last general will be ordered to ......". A famous general, rushing to the direct warship, not long after a while, small boats, with flammable materials, with the help of the wind, began to float to the pontoon.
A round of rockets, fired into the ship. The boat instantly turned into a huge fireball and pounced on the pontoon.
The sound of wild laughter came from the Jiaozhi National Naval Division, followed by a huge heat wave, rushing towards the pontoon.
Jia Fu felt the heat wave, and big drops of sweat swept through his back. With dead eyes, he stared at the floating fireboat, and shouted at the soldiers who were building the pontoon bridge: "What are you still doing in a daze, don't you fix it for me quickly."
The sound of a roar sounded in the ears of the soldiers. At this time, one by one, it was like waking up from a dream. In order to survive the rapid speed, speed up the construction.
But no matter how it is built, it still can't change the fate of being burned down. Despair, after struggling, began to creep in.
Suddenly, the wind turned sharply, and the fireship turned and crashed into the sailors of the Cochin country.
The soldiers of the Cochin country, the laughter stopped abruptly. They roared and began to turn the bow of the ship in an attempt to avoid the fireship.
It's a pity that the fireship is small and light, and it floats too fast backwards. The big ship is somewhat clumsy compared to it. As soon as he reacted, he was already bumped into.
Laughter turned to wailing and crying, and one by one, the soldiers of Jiaozhi were reduced to ashes in the flames.
Jia Fu was stunned for a moment, and then a deafening cheer came from the pontoon. On their faces, there were smiles for the rest of their lives.
