Chapter Seventy-One: Fighting the Yangtze River
The net pocket flew up, and when it fell, it had already covered the opponent's dragon boat, and those sailors were paddling themselves, no one expected that suddenly a net pocket fell, and suddenly limited their hands and feet.
And the black and thin man, who was shaking the spear in his palm, saw Li Yu coming, he shook the spear, and wanted to attack Li Yu, but suddenly found that the white light in Li Yu's hand flashed, and a net pocket fell, covering the sailor on his side.
In annoyance, I wanted to shoot him, but suddenly I heard the pain of those sailors, and I couldn't help but look down.
Hearing this voice, I couldn't help but look down and couldn't help but be surprised.
It turned out that the net pocket in Li Yu's hand actually had a barb, which limited the sailors' movements when the net bag fell, and at the same time, those sailors used a little force, and the barbs that had already been made on the net pocket hooked into their flesh.
The black and thin man was stunned, the dragon boat they were riding was already difficult to continue to move quickly, but at the same time, Li Yu's dragon boat was quickly rowing past their dragon boat.
Although someone was injured, it did not slow down 100% because of this, so after dozens of breaths, Li Yu's dragon boat finally overtook the dragon boat of the Fenshui Gang, which was in the second place, and rushed into the finish line.
Everything was a foregone conclusion, the first race was over, and when the first dragon boat broke into the finish line, it was already doomed that the Luoshui Gang would win.
Seeing that there were people cheering on the river, and on the riverbank, it was even louder at the moment, and the sound was loud, but many of them were angry.
Angry at the defeat of the Water Dividing Gang, at least, they lost their first gambling game.
Li Yu was standing at the bow of the boat at the moment, and he smiled, but when he laughed, his eyes were looking at the building boat in the distance.
At this moment, Fan Qingguang and Luo Changfeng, the two of them were relatively speechless, they both had rods and scales in their hearts, and the development of things in Zhilu Dao was definitely beyond their expectations.
"Below, it's the second event of our race." At this moment, on the ship, a burly man in black clothes, holding a small red flag in his hand, kept shaking, and there was a circled tube in his hand, constantly shouting to the people watching the battle and preparing for the game on the river.
Li Yu's dragon boat on their side has already begun to dock, after all, if it doesn't dock, it will sink quickly, so they must quickly dock the boat.
"Listen, everyone, in the next competition, they will jump off the boat on this side, and then swim to the opposite side, which is the route taken by the dragon boat just now, and now each gang sends thirty people, a total of sixty people to start the race."
The burly man shouted, holding the red flag in his hand, constantly shaking, obviously to prepare the two gangs.
At this moment, the two groups of people were ready and got on their respective boats.
After everyone was ready, the burly man flung the red flag to the gunners in the distance, and immediately the cannon sounded, and sixty people jumped off the boat at the same time and swam towards the end of the dragon boat just now.
These sixty people should be said to be the best swimmers among the Luoshui Gang and the Fenshui Gang, and their swimming skills are quite good, especially on the river, they don't know how many times they have swam in the road, so these people are extremely fast.
However, these are only superficial things, because in swimming, there are fights.
This is clear to everyone, and there is no clear rule between the two gangs that they are not allowed to fight in the game.
It is precisely because of this that the people on both sides are gradually closing the distance at the moment, but some of them are going hand in hand and start to fight in the water.
Sixty people, although not much, but not too little, so on the surface of the river, there were scenes of battles for a while, and after a while, red blood emerged from the river, constantly making a large number of red on the river.
"Master, everything is ready, just waiting for your words." At this moment, behind Li Yu, the man wearing the hat came over and whispered in Li Yu's ear.
Li Yu nodded, his eyes swept over the children of the Luoshui Gang around him, and then whispered to the person wearing a hat beside him: "The people led by Tang Hong have already gone downstream, you take people to prepare to go upstream, there are basically people guarding here, I think the Water Dividing Gang should not be so easy to escape." ”
The person wearing the hat was naturally Hao Cheng, he listened to Li Yu's words, nodded, and then pulled the hat with his hand, turned around and walked into the crowd.
There are more than 10,000 officers and soldiers brought by Hao Cheng this time, and the most important thing is that when Hao Cheng brought the troops over, Lu Jiang had already lit up the men and horses to prepare to respond, but there were too many people and horses, and it was easy to startle the snake, so Lu Jiang had been holding his troops and waiting for news from Li Yu's side.
At this moment, the competition on the river has reached a fever pitch, and there are less than thirty people left between the two gangs at the moment, and the distance between these people is almost widened at this moment.
"Come on, come on, swim over."
"Stab him, hurry up, or you'll swim over"
Many of the people on the riverbank shouted that their throats were broken, and they were very excited to see it, especially when they saw some people fighting in the river, and there was blood flowing out, which seemed to stimulate their sensitive nerves, so for a time the entire riverbank erupted in waves of shouts.
At this moment, there are already people swimming halfway through the river, and this is also the time when the ability to swim and endurance can be best reflected.
Soon, some people couldn't swim, and at this moment someone approached the other gang and started fighting.
There was bright red blood flowing on the surface of the river again. It seems that the river is going to be completely dyed red.
In the end, there were less than twenty people left in the two gangs, and among these people, the people of the Water Dividing Gang were one or two more than the people of the Luoshui Gang.
Moreover, the people of the Water Dividing Gang have extremely strong swimming ability, especially a man who is not tall and wears black clothes, who is swimming forward quickly in the water like a swimming fish at the moment.
When Li Yu saw this person's swimming speed, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and a flash of amazement flashed in his eyes.
"If this person can be accepted, it will definitely play a great role in water warfare in the future, but I don't know if he can survive in the chaos for a while, everything will wait until after the war."
And just when Li Yu was thinking this, the man had already swam to the end, and at the same time, behind him, the rest of the people were also swimming hard, and at the same time, the struggle between them was still continuing, and their fight would not stop until they reached the end.
However, what they don't know is that after the next game starts, it will become a real fight, a real battle.
