At the sound of the order, the confidants of Zhirong pushed many ordinary Buddhist believers off the boat, shouting, wailing, and shouting. Thousands of Buddhists crowded on the narrow ferry, looking at the boat that had untied the cable and headed for the river, their faces full of despair and anger, these people abandoned their families and careers and faithfully followed Zhenrong here, but when the catastrophe came, the always generous and merciful sect leader abandoned them and discarded them like a rag.

Disappointed, many people jumped into the Yangtze River desperately, desperately swimming towards the boat, trying to get the sect leader to take them away. But what awaited them was the ruthless order of Zhenrong, the sword was thrown down, and the palms and arms of the hands that had just climbed to the side of the boat were all cut off, and on the surface of the river, the stumps and severed arms were sinking and floating, and the blood stained the river red, and the Buddhists who had lost their limbs struggled helplessly in the water and wailed, drifting with the current, and finally swallowed up by the river.

The tragic situation in front of him, even the bloodthirsty archers couldn't bear to witness, but Zhen Rong smiled at Liu Zeheshi on the boat and said: "Good and good, Liu Yuanjun, the green mountains do not change, the green water always flows, we will have a period in the future." ”

Tai Shi Ci was indignant and rebuked angrily: "Beast! What good you are worthy! Look at the arrows! As he spoke, he drew his bow and arrows and wanted to shoot.

Liu Ze stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, Ziyi don't need to be impulsive." Liu Ze shouted at Zhen Rong again: "Sect leader, since this prince promised to let you leave Guangling today, he will never lose his trust, but there is still a word to give you before leaving, and heaven is evil." You can do it, you can't do it, you can't live, you can do it! ”

Zhen Rong had no shame, and laughed: "I'd rather bear people and make people bear me, for the superiors, they have always only sought the end and unscrupulous means, and today's shame will be repaid!" Hahaha......"

As the boat drifted away, the smug laughter of Zhirong was finally inaudible.

As soon as Zhen Rong left, the thousands of Buddhists who were still at the ferry had to kneel and surrender to Liu Ze. Liu Zechuan ordered that all Buddhists who surrendered were not to be killed. All of them were escorted back to Xuzhou and handed over to the Tuntian camp, and it was a pity that so many strong laborers were killed.

Zhang He had already led the army to arrive, jumped off his horse, and rushed to Liu Ze. He bowed down and said, "The last general, Zhang He, will see the lord." The last general failed to complete the lord's order. As a result, Guangling was tragically killed by the Rongrong army. Please, the Lord punish the sin. ”

Liu Ze clasped his hands together and said, "This is the sin of Zhenrong, and I will do my best." What is the sin? ”

Zhao Yu's face was sad, knelt down in front of Liu Ze, and cried: "Guangling was tragically poisoned, it was really Yu who recognized him as an inhuman, and led the wolf into the house, which caused such a tragedy, and Yu Wan could not atone for his crimes, so please Liu Yuanjun sentenced Yu to death in accordance with the law to calm the anger of the people in Guangling." ”

Liu Ze smiled indifferently and said: "Zhenrong is a beast with a human face, and Xuzhou is confused by it, how can Yuan Da be alone?" ”

"Yu is too guarded by Guangling, he mistakenly believes in traitors, causing misery to the living, and the crime is great, if Liu Yuanjun is not punished, Yu will not be able to see Guangling's father again." Zhao Yu couldn't kneel.

Liu Ze said: "Zhao Yu, as the Taishou of Guangling, was derelict in his duties and negligence, which caused Guangling to be a disaster, and not punishing him was not enough to reassure the people. Zhao Yu Guangling was dismissed from his post and returned to Xuzhou to discuss the crime. He was temporarily replaced by Zhang He, the governor of Guangling. ”

Zhao Yu kowtowed and thanked him and retreated. Liu Ze ordered Tai Shici and Zhang He to return to Guangling with their entire headquarters and horses. The second general generously received the order and gathered the team to go.

Liu Ze stood at the ferry, looked at the little shadow in front of him, snorted secretly in his heart, and said: "Zhenrong, I have fulfilled my promise and let you leave Guangling, as for the situation after that, you can ask for more blessings!" ”

The wind is high and the sails are full, and a boat chops the waves and sails towards the south bank of the Yangtze River.

Zhen Rong was in a good mood, looking at the rushing waves were very happy, he was already in a desperate situation, embattled, Zhen Rong only thought that he would follow in the footsteps of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, and had no chance to set foot on the homeland of Jiangdong again. Zhen Rong laughed proudly: "Liu Ze, Liu Ze, you are still a little tender, hahaha...... Credit? Credit is a fart, change places, and the old man will definitely take your head. It's a pity, you vulgar people, you only value what reputation, reputation, you must know that in this world, those who achieve great things are not informal, Liu Ze, you will pay for your stupidity, hahaha......"

One of his henchmen tried his best to flatter: "The sect leader is wise, he caught Zhao Yu, and Liu Ze threw a rat bogey, high, really high!" ”

Zhen Rong laughed and said: "The world regards Liu Ze as the hero of the world, and when I see it today, it is not enough." Today's old man crosses the Yangtze River in the south, and he will cross the north on another day, and all the shame he suffers today will be repaid a hundredfold! ”

Xue Li of Moling, who had previously been the minister of Pengcheng, later had a conflict with Tao Qian, abandoned his official position and fled south, and was reused by Liu Qian to garrison Moling. Zhenrong and Xue Li have a good personal relationship, after Xue Li fled south, he often exchanged letters with Zhenrong, and Zhenrong knew that he would not stay in Xuzhou for a long time, and he was already ready to go to Xue Li. However, Di Rong has no plans to send people under the fence, Xue Li is just a chess piece that he can use, Di Rong has already planned, after arriving in Moling, use the method of dealing with Zhao Yu, such as the method, to solve Xue Li, you can annex Xue Li's territory and people, and then go to his hometown Danyang to recruit some soldiers, take advantage of the time when Sun Ce and Liu Miao are fighting for life and death in Qu'a, come to a praying mantis to catch cicadas and yellow finches, and take down the territory of Jiangdong with ease, and you can go back to the north to cross, and you will be ashamed before the snow.

Di Rong was lying there dreaming of his Qingqiu dream, and his cronies came to report to him with a frightened face: "Sect Leader, the big thing is not good, the cabin is leaking. ”

"What?" He stood up, "How can it leak in a good way, could it be that it hit a reef?" Don't go ahead and plug it up! ”

"No!" The cronies turned and walked away. Zhenrong couldn't sit still now, pacing back and forth on the boat with his hands behind his back, how could the boat leak? This is the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the water is deep and wide, and there are no reefs or anything like that on the route, how could the ship enter the water for no reason?

The cronies soon returned, looking like they were crying and mourning.

Zhen Rong asked anxiously: "Is the loophole plugged?" "The boat is in the middle of the river, and once the water leaks, the consequences are unimaginable, so Zhenrong is also in a hurry.

"There are big loopholes, and there are more than one place, it seems that someone has moved their hands and feet, deliberately scuttled the bottom of the ship, and the water has flooded the entire bilge, and it can't be blocked at all!" The cronies looked desperate.

Zhen Rong also clearly felt that the boat was sinking rapidly, and a cool air rushed straight to his head from the soles of his feet, and in an instant, he understood Liu Ze's contemptuous and weird smile before leaving, so it was, Liu Ze was the real black belly! On the surface, Liu Ze kept his promise, opened the net, and promised him to leave Guangling, but secretly sent someone to do tricks and feet, chiseled the bottom of the boat, and let him be buried in the belly of the fish.

Good calculation! What a calculation! Di Rong felt a burst of sadness in his heart, he was pecked by a goose all his life, and he calculated others all his life but finally died from other people's calculations, Liu Ze, Liu Ze, I looked away, I didn't expect you to be more vicious than me! More insidious than me! actually came up with such a vicious trick, in front of the world, Liu Ze is still a righteous gentleman who abides by integrity, I am buried in the Yangtze River, I am afraid that no one will know about it in this life.

No way! I can't just die! No way! The strongest desire to survive burst out in Zhenrong's heart, and he must not sit still, he must not!

"Go and throw all your luggage and superfluous stuff into the river! Fast! Fast! Fast! As if he had gone crazy, his eyes were red, his spit was splashing, and he gave orders in a hurry.

Knowing the news of the water in the cabin, all the people were desperate, and when they heard the order of Zhenrong, the Buddhists all acted nervously, and threw the gold and silver treasures, baggage and soft goods looted by Zhenrong from Xiapi and Guangling into the Yangtze River.

Although the ship was a sailboat, it was also equipped with oars, and Zhenrong ordered all the men to take turns rowing their oars and rowing desperately towards the south shore.

But the speed of the water in the cabin was so fast that soon the entire bilge was completely submerged, and the whole hull was tilted to the right, and the side of the ship on the right side was already close to the water.

He frantically ordered the ship to throw away everything he could, but it still couldn't stop the boat from sinking, so he ordered everyone to be thrown into the river except for the oarsman. His cronies forced the Buddhists to jump off the boat with a knife, and the disobedient ones were slashed and killed, and then the corpses were thrown into the river, and the blood soaked the entire cabin, and was soon washed away by the waves of the river.

There were fewer and fewer people on the boat, and in the end, only Zhen Rong and his last henchman were left, but the river still ruthlessly flooded the cabin, and Di Rong was already red-eyed, and looked at the blood-stained sword, pointing at his last henchman.

The henchman knelt in front of Zhen Rong, wailing and pleading, "Sect leader, don't kill me!" Don't kill me! ”

At this time, there was no point in killing again, but Di Rong still ruthlessly stabbed the sword into the chest of the henchman, blood spurted out wildly, splashing Di Rong's head and face, Ji Rong smiled fiercely, kicked the last corpse into the river, a big wave hit, he staggered, waded through the ankle-length water, held on to the ship's mast, and barely stood firm.

By this time, most of the ship had been submerged in the water, and the ship had lost the ability to move towards the south bank, and drifted eastward with the current, sinking little by little, and Zhu Rong held the mast, looking helplessly and desperately at the south bank.

The mountains on the south bank are faint, but for Zhenrong, they are unattainable. (To be continued......)
