Chapter 140

"What if it's a fierce general? This king is not bad either."

Abuta glared angrily at the red silk eyes, looking at the other party's ships, he was the hegemon at sea, so he immediately ordered all the warships to narrow the encirclement, be sure to catch up, and capture the "Jing" ship

The so-called capture of the thief first captured the king Abta felt that since Jing Tingrui was sent by the little emperor of Dayan to save the battle, if he was captured, it would be enough to scare the little emperor on the dragon chair

"Hurry up and move forward"

The previous strategy of the god woman has failed, Abta doesn't care, his eyes are burning with fire, he wants to break Jing Tingrui's body into ten thousand pieces and scatter it in the sea to feed the fish

"Fog is rising in the rear of the king" Seeing that the ship from Jing Tingrui was getting closer and closer, the sentry suddenly reported loudly. 【】

"Fog?" Abuta just glanced back, but was dumbfounded.

The wind was strong, and as the sentinels had said, a billowing black mist appeared behind them, as if a tsunami were coming, and it was chilling

And it followed the direction of the wind, and came straight to the stern of their ships, some of which were slow-moving, and which had been swallowed up by the thick fog, and the only thing that could be heard was the rumbling of cannons, and the occasional flash of fire came out.

"What is this?"

The surprise of the soldiers on board was no less than that of Abta, and even more so already frightened. Legend has it that when the god of the sea is angry, he will send a giant squid that spits out thick black ink and engulfs passing ships, leaving no one alive.

Could it be that the fierce battles on the sea have disturbed the old man of the sea god?

This panic was not trivial, a soldier was carrying a fire gun in his hand and was about to fire at the enemy ship, he was stunned, the muzzle of the cannon was pointed downward, and with a bang, he actually stabbed a big hole in the deck of his own ship, and the fire suddenly burst out

"Die, pour water and extinguish the fire"

The soldiers ran around in a panic, bringing buckets and sand to extinguish the fire. But the fire was quite fierce, and in the lower cabin was a gunpowder shop, and many people were burned, and the terrible screams pierced the sky

"Let the king abandon ship"

The lieutenant general was tall and mighty, with a thick beard, but even the beard was burnt and gray-faced, but his eyes were bright and flashing with anxiety, "The fire below is too big, and the ship is about to explode."

"Bang" Abta slammed his fist into the mast, his whole face flushed red with anger, but he didn't give the order immediately until his ears rang

There was a popping sound, and then he shouted hoarsely, "Abandon ship"

Countless soldiers jumped into the sea, and many more were shattered by the explosion, and Abta sat in a dinghy, his face full of anger, the waves were strong, and the dinghy shook violently.

Some soldiers clinged to the edge of the boat and tried to climb up, but they were all knocked down by the adjutant with oars. With such a small boat, one more person will capsize, and at this time, saving one's own life and the king's life is the most important thing.

The green mountains are there, so why don't you be afraid that there will be no firewood

However, the larger the boat, the bigger the fire, and the occasional explosions, the dinghy had to row desperately towards the periphery, until it was a little empty

At the point, Abta stood up suddenly, dumbfounded at the tragic scene in front of him.

His flagship exploded, the fire fierce and black smoke billowing out, and all the great ships were hurrying to each other as he had ordered the encirclement to be narrowed

Close formations. No one expected that something would happen to the king's ship, and they all wanted to avoid it, but the ship was too big, and it was not easy to turn around.

Soon, the fire on the flagship burned another large ship, and the soldiers moved to the smaller ship, but the load was not enough, and it turned on its side and sank

Fortunately, the ships that had escaped the fire saw that the flagship was destroyed, and immediately spun around on the sea like headless flies, and the Dayan fleet, which had already successfully broken through, probably saw the chaos in the rear, and all turned their bows to counter-encircle them.

In an instant, the arrows rained down, the cannons shook the sky, and the war drums rumbled and beat non-stop, and the momentum of the Dayan Navy suddenly soared, like a mountain and a sea, launching a fierce attack on the remaining Shengxia coalition forces

When two armies are fighting, if one side loses morale, it will only be beaten. Some boats tried to escape, but were stopped because of the wind.

Abta was simply grief-stricken when he saw the destruction of the army he had worked so hard to build, and the lieutenant general beside him also sighed, and finally grabbed Abta's arm and said bitterly, "Your Majesty, retreat"

"No, if the king wants to grab Jing Tingrui, he will break his neck with his own hands" Abuta snatched the wood pulp from the lieutenant's hand, gritting his teeth with hatred, looking like he was going to slash towards Jing Tingrui's flagship.

"Your Majesty, you are going to die, the other party is thousands of troops" The adjutant general desperately blocked, "Wait for the shore, let's form an army again, and it's not too late to kill back"

"Ben Wang...... Ahh

The black fog behind him dissipated at some point, and there was a line of Dayan warships, mixed with some Shengguo warships flying white flags.

Their retreat was cut off, and there was another miserable defeat ahead, and the lieutenant general glanced back at Abuta and said dejectedly, "I will be loyal to you again in the last life." He threw himself into the sea.

Abuta watched his henchmen disappear into the waves, but he still didn't give up

He took the oars by himself and rowed desperately towards Yunmei Island in the distance, maybe the Dayan fleet didn't see him floating on the sea, the corpses of planks and so on.

It wasn't until Jing Tingrui's giant ship was about to crush his dinghy that he had to stop.

The previous hustle and bustle was like a dream, and the surroundings were much quieter, except for the acrid smoke.

Abta looked up, and Jing Tingrui was standing on the side of the ship, looking at him condescendingly.

"This king surrenders" Abta was the first to shout, looking like a big man who can bend and stretch, "I, Abuta, want to have peace talks with you"

The sound of laughter sounded on the flagship, and Jing Tingrui raised his hand slightly, and immediately fell silent.

Abta continued to look at Jing Tingrui, "If King Raben goes up first, someone will come to redeem this king" He is no better than others, just an ordinary general and soldier, and it is just that he is dead.

He is the son-in-law of Xia Guo, the king of Shengguo, and Dayan has a bargaining chip when he catches him, and it is easy to say whether he will pay a lot of money or cede the city.

Abta was convinced that the humiliation was only temporary, and that when the day came back, he would be repaid

But why, the rope ladder on the enemy ship has not been lowered? Abuta stared closely, the black smoke gradually dissipated, and the sun was too bright to shake his eyes.

When the light dimmed and he finally saw clearly, he found that it was not the rope ladder waiting for him, but the sharp arrow in Jing Tingrui's hand.

Thinking of its power, Abuta couldn't help but take a step back, his face darkened, and before he could say a last word, the sword pierced his left chest, and even split the dinghy, and his hands grabbed the heavy arrow in his chest, and fell into the dark sea.

I thought that the sea was cold, but I felt a trace of warmth, but when I found that the heat came from the hot blood gushing out of my chest, I clearly realized death, and fell into infinite fear, and my whole body stiffened.

However, what really surprised him was that a pair of outstanding ice eyes were so cold to the bone, and there was no human pity for the defeated generals in those eyes.

Yes, but the determination to eradicate the grass and root cause Abuta even thought, how good would it be if he could regret it now? He lived for more than forty years and for the first time had remorse.

He who shouldn't have attacked Dayan, at least not to exchange fire with Jing Tingrui, this thought was accompanied by the horror in his heart, which made him open his eyes wide and sink into the depths of the sea with a shocked face, along with his warriors...... Gone.

Dayan Imperial City, General Jing's Mansion.

It is said that it is the general's mansion, there are no guards in front of the door, and there is no magnificent stone lions, only the plaque "General's Mansion" given by the emperor, in a touch of twilight

There is a pleasant golden light in it.

Inside the gate, past the green hill shadow wall is a courtyard paved with blue bricks, and under the eaves on the right, there are horizontal stone slabs, raising several pots of fèng tail bamboo, pomegranate flowers and finch plums.

In late summer and early autumn, the garden is decorated with thick green leaves and bright red flowers.

The house does not entertain guests, but the elegantly decorated hall is very lively. Xiao Dezi's father-in-law had only left for a short time, and the food box rewarded by the emperor was placed on the sour branch wood round table.

Jing Tingrui's mother, Mrs. Liu, was instructing the housekeeper to bring the delicate red lacquer and gold bat pattern food box to the offering table, and the whole family had to kneel three times and bow nine times in order to enjoy the delicacies given by the emperor.

"The emperor is really kind to our family" The wife of the edict Liu, who was helped into the seat by the maid, with tears in her eyes and a moved face.

"Madam, don't cry, it's a happy event."

It was Tian Yajing who persuaded softly, saying that she was the big girl in the house, but she was no different from the young lady of the family, she didn't have to do heavy work, she had a simple and elegant boudoir, and her mother was waiting for her.

When other maids saw her, no matter how old or young they were, they had to bow down and say goodbye and call her "Miss".

"That's what Miss Yajing said."

The fat and strong old mother said to the side, "Madam, it has been almost a year since the general left home to fight, and our family can still laugh constantly, relying on the emperor's protection." Today, I will give foreign tribute to the deer antler ginseng, and tomorrow I will give cloth and brocade, and there will be rewards from time to time, even those of us who are in the present feel that our faces are bright, especially festive."

"Hey, I'm crying with joy, but I can't hide from your two clever mouths. Hehe, come, everyone sit down, let's get up with chopsticks, eat as before, you're welcome. ”

Liu's surface is refreshing, but she is very worried about her son in her heart, especially in these days, when she heard that the court did not get the front-line battle report, her heart is up and down, and she is afraid that the emperor will be angry.

However, I didn't expect that the emperor's gifts not only did not stop, but more than before, as if he was giving her a reassurance.

I remember that my son once said that the emperor is kind-hearted and fair. This is really good, to be able to keep up with such a master, I don't know if it is a blessing that their mother and son have cultivated for several lifetimes.

"Madam, you can eat this stewed deer antler velvet alone."

The maid brought out all the dishes in the food box. There is a cup of stewed deer antler chicken soup, a pot of ginseng and lotus seeds and pigeon meat, a plate of stir-fried pork slices with fresh bracken, and a plate of sweet cake made of red dates and chestnuts.

The amount of stewed soup is naturally not much, but it is less expensive and fine, Liu drank it with a smile. Although she was in the middle of the road because of her family, she was in the dust, and then met Bo Xingjinyilang, and was treated coldly and harshly by her husband's family.

But now the life is harmonious and beautiful, she likes the family to be lively, can soothe the worry in her heart, so let a few decent people dine with her.

Yajing naturally sat beside her, talking and laughing, and picking vegetables with each other, which was more intimate than her own daughter.

The housekeeper was always reluctant to sit and stood aside to eat, which was also happy. The old mother is the most able to eat, and she has a lot of strength, so when she goes out with Yajing, she can always drive away a lot of prodigal children, and she doesn't need to bring guards.

"It's worthy of the palace meal, this taste is different from usual, how can this chicken be stewed so crispy, and so fresh, it's like eating seafood." The old mother pinched her chopsticks and smiled from ear to ear.

"No, ma'am, eat more." The butler nodded, "Don't let this cow be left alone." ”

"Who are the cows, who do you say?" The old mother pretended to be angry and glared.

"I'm a cow, okay, hehe." Liu laughed.

"For the sake of Madame's sake, spare you." The old mother said. In fact, these subordinates know the rules very well, and the meals given by the emperor are not touched much, unless the lady takes the initiative to pick up the dishes for them.

Otherwise, it will be left to Mrs. and Yajing, who eat some seasonal dishes made in the kitchen.

They all knew that Madame had left them to eat together, just to make a scene. Of course, you can't make too many mistakes.

After the meal and washing up, the people went to be busy, or cleaning the courtyard and tidying up the warehouse, or going out to buy things, Liu went back to the bedroom to rest for a while, but he didn't want to fall asleep on the concubine.

When I woke up, I found Tian Yajing sitting on the pedal of the concubine, sewing a pair of white socks
