Volume 3 Mending the Crack in the Sky Chapter 120 (10)

An early summer rainstorm has passed, the water surface of Yishui is suddenly a few zhang wider, the river soup soup and the east, if you live in the river, there is really a river Bo boasting that the two sides of the bank do not distinguish the state of cattle and horses.

At this time, both sides of Yishui are all the tents of the Jurchen army camp, every night, the bonfires in the camp are dotted, reflecting the river, and Yishui is like the Milky Way scene in the sky.

Such a scenery sometimes makes people forget in a trance, how tyrannical is this alien army that straddles both sides of the Yishui River and washes the entire Yan Land in blood, and this ongoing war, just the beginning, is already so cruel!

The Jurchen military horses camped on both sides of the Yishui River were extremely large. The main camps were placed on higher ground some distance from the river bank, in case the flood would flood the army due to heavy rains and flash floods. But it was not too far away, this was to facilitate the army to get water.

And the Jurchen army did not forget the preventive blockade of this river flow road.

Needless to say, the armies on both sides of the river can watch the movement of this river at any time, and thousands of crossbowmen can be drawn to block the river at any time. And at night, from time to time, there are also sentinels who patrol the riverbank with fire.

At a distance of more than ten miles from Yi County, on the river, the Jurchens tied down a rough wooden raft, retreated into the river, and were connected by a giant cowhide rope to form a blockade. On this wooden row blockade line, there are more than 100 cangtou bullets at any time. These northland men eat and live on wooden rafts, just in case reinforcements break through the river and rush to the city of Yixian.

The tragic death of so many little masters near Yanjing provoked the Jurchen Commander Group of the Eastern Route Army to besiege Yixian County with heavy troops, first filling the city with human lives and attacking wildly, and now it is rushing to build a large number of siege equipment. It looks like he will never stop if he doesn't fall into this city.

For a large number of Jurchen military horses concentrated in Yizhou. Naturally, they did not dare to disobey the commander-in-chief's orders. But he also hopes that the sooner he breaks through Yi County, the better. In order to liberate the army, they will gain freedom of movement, and then continue to surging south, and there is still such a vast and rich southern dynasty waiting for them to loot and kill!

And the most important thing to capture this city, which is quite stubbornly defended and whose defenders are obviously elite soldiers, is to leave this city without assistance. Therefore, the Jurchen military horses put a lot of effort into the Yishui blockade, and put on a posture of not letting a single soldier or grain pass through.

In the direction of Hebei, the southern army also seems to be afraid of the Jurchen army gathering here, and the battle under Yixian County has been in full swing for some time. But there is still no sign of assistance. Under the continuation of such peaceful days, the original tight blockade of the river was a little tired, especially those who ate and lived on wooden rafts, who were not accustomed to life on the water, and it was inconvenient to raise a fire every day just chewing some stinky jerky, plus in the early summer, the sun steamed and the water vapor forced people, and many people fell ill. Every day, on the wooden raft, the plague can't beat the slightest bit of energy. Although he complained about the hardships and asked for the transfer of people, he had to suffer for a few days for a while, so he could only pinch the time and endure it.

All in all. The Jurchen army besieging Yi County has a thought now. Break through this city sooner, let the commanders vent their anger. Then it surged south, and the entire Southern Dynasty was bloodied!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When night fell, bonfires were reflected on the Yishui River, and the high places on both sides of the bank were full of black and oppressive Jurchen military camp tents. From time to time, there were some heart-rending screams and cries in the night, as well as the smug laughter of Hu Lu. Needless to say, this is another plundered Yandi, and the people don't know what kind of torture they are suffering in the camp.

At this time, a light rain fell, and a misty rain and fog rose on the surface of the river, so that even the sentinels patrolling the river bank were a little lazy, and they went out of the camp in the misty rain and fog to make a random circle, and hurried back. However, even these rangers still meticulously carried fire along the riverbank, and in the rising rain and fog, it was not possible to see the scene in the middle of the river.

As for the defenders on the blockade line of the two wooden rafts, they even got into the wooden rafts and slept in the grass huts early. It's raining above, and it's humid below, and the bones feel sore, which is not like a bird's life.

In the Yishui River, two small boats are parting the river and quietly coming.

This small boat is the common fusiform fast boat appearance in Zhubo in Hebei, Wenjiawa, Liangshan Bo and other large berths, fishermen drive these small fast boats to chase water birds, above the water surface, back and forth like flying.

The shuttle boat has also been modified, with several pairs of oars on both sides in addition to the rear oar. The broadside bracket is hung with two layers of cooked cowhide, and the cowhide is lined with a layer of fine net. This kind of protection is tough and elastic enough, the arrows are difficult to break, and the flying stones can also block it. On the outside of the cowhide there is a curtain soaked in water and grass at any time, which is to prevent things from ignition.

And in the gap between the hanging cooked cowhides, a crossbow machine stretched out. It's like a row of fangs coming out of a fast boat, and under the rain, the metal parts on the crossbow machine are steaming cold, making people feel cold in their hearts.

At this time, on the two fast boats, the back oars are not shaking, but the four pairs of oars on both sides are gently pulling. Seeing that the first wooden row blockade on the river had been covered was less than 300 paces away, and there was no sound on the wooden raft opposite the rain and fog.

The oars on the first boat had stopped, and several soldiers had already changed into water supports, wrapped oilcloth from the bottom of the crotch, knotted it in the chest, wrapped it in pig urine bubbles, and tied it fiercely on the eyebrows. Then they slipped down the river from the stern of the boat.

At that time, he was a man with a stout body. It was Lu Yong who snatched back Zhao Huan on the night of the Bianliang Palace Revolution and made great contributions.

Such a feat, although he was deceived by others at the beginning and participated in the mutiny, he was completely worthy of it. Not only that, but he also moved the official to a small envoy, and was sent to the capital, and he was rewarded with 200 times. It turned out that the army of Bianliang Xinlian was allocated to the Shenwei Army and the Tianwu Army, and Shangguan also allowed Lu Yong to choose which army to be into.

Lu Yong thought about it, the Tianwu Army was going to Hebei, and his family was proficient in Hebei, and he entered the Tianwu Army, as long as his life was great. It is not difficult to make greater achievements. In the end, he was selected into the Tianwu Army.

After entering the army. Then he drove northward and spread out on the northern edge of the river. Lu Yong was among the Chinese army led by Yu Jiang, and this time he should come to the aid of Yizhou, and his department was selected. Lu Yong even invited him to be the first to choose the front, and he held back his strength and wanted to make some miracles.

Who made Lu Yong make a great contribution in the mutiny that night. Although it is very important in the Tianwu Army, it is also looked at by everyone. Seeing it, they all greeted him as Lu Dalang, who captured the prince. This kind of taste raised Lu Yong very high. If it is ordinary in the army, this fall will be heavy! Lu Yong is also a good-faced Hebei man, although he knows that it is a difficult thing for the vanguard of the ten thousand armies to enter Yi County, but he can only stand in front!

However, for fighting by the river, Lu Yong also has some confidence. Although he was selling horses for a living, everyone knew that Lu Dalang was very good at horse warfare. But I don't know that Lu Yong grew up on the edge of a big lake such as Wenjiawa in Xin'an Jun, Hebei East Road, his parents are fishermen, and he has lived on the water since he was a child. But it's easier than eating!

After the tie stopped, Lu Yong went down to the river first. There wasn't a splash at all. Then five or seven black shadows also fell.

In early summer, the river was still cold, and Lu Yong only showed his mouth and nose at first, treading water with his feet, dragging a little water wave, and hiding forward. The two fast boats behind him slowed down, only following more than a hundred paces, and covered forward very slowly.

Not long after, Lu Yong had already stepped on the water and approached the wooden row blockade. On the surface of the river, eight large wooden rows are connected in a line with thick cowhide cables, and each wooden row is enough to tie more than ten defenders. They all lived in a straw hut built on a wooden raft.

Lu Yong's goal is a wooden platoon in the middle of the river. At the four corners of the wooden row, there are butter torches burning in the rain and mist, emitting a dim yellow light. There was no half of a figure in the wooden row, but from the grass hut there was an earth-shattering shout, echoing in the rain and fog on the river.

Lu Yong, who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, was suddenly beating in his heart at this time, and when he looked back, he couldn't see if the brothers had followed. It's so far, can you turn back? Lu Yong gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart, stepped up his treading of water, touched the edge of the wooden chop, reached out to put his hand on the slippery wooden chop, calmed his breath a little, dragged the splash, and flipped on the wooden chop!

The sound of water coming out of the water was very loud in this silent night. Lu Yong's heart almost stopped at this moment. Lying on the wooden raft and pausing for a moment, he found that there was still no movement, and the snoring in the grass shed seemed to be louder.

At this time, the seven or eight brothers who had just been unable to see the trace were drenched in water and turned over the wooden rafts. Every time someone came up, Lu Yong mentioned a point in his heart. When the last person came up, the grip was too slippery and not very secure, and he took it off and turned over and fell into the water!

This splash of water splashed, and the sound was more than ten times louder than just now!

At this time, the wooden platoon defenders were finally alarmed. Under the light of the butter torch, several strong men with shirtless and unkempt beards emerged from the grass hut and let out a panicked shout. And the surrounding wooden rafts were also disturbed at the same time, and the sound of Hu shouting completely tore the silence above the Yishui River!

Lu Yong couldn't wait any longer at this time, roared angrily, and turned over. Underwater stealth can't bring long blades, it's just two daggers. At this time, they all pulled out their hands, and rushed straight over, crashing into the arms of one of the defenders, and two daggers stabbed between his chest and abdomen, and then they were stirred hard!

The rest of the drilled out defenders roared even more fiercely, waving their blades and pounced on them. And Lu Yong grabbed the guy who was stabbed by him to only half a breath to cover it, and at the same time turned his head and yelled: "Cut Piso first!" ”

Seven or eight figures pounced, two of them went to support Lu Yong, while the rest went to cut Piso.

The eight rafts were all lined up with a giant log, driven deep into the silt at the bottom of the river, and the ropes were tied to the giant log, which served as a barrage stake, as thick as a child's arm. Chop it with a long dagger, I don't know how much time it will take!

And how many defenders of the wooden platoon next to them have drilled out of the grass hut, some people are waving their blades and shouting, some people are desperately playing lights to the shore, and some people are about to shoot their bows and crossbows for a while but they don't know who to shoot, for fear of hurting their own families.

The surface of the Yishui River is actually not very wide, eight large wooden rows are horizontal, and the distance between each wooden row is only a few steps, and there are wooden row defenders next to them who want to jump over and want to join the battle group and kill these water ghosts who touch them.

And the camp set up high above the riverbank, although the patrol is a little lax, there are still people in the camp who watch the lights on the river. At this time, I saw a message on the river, and in the camp, the horn sounded, and the lights in the camp began to be disturbed, and there were shouts and orders everywhere.
