Chapter 242: Set sail
"Sir, that's our belongings......"
"Let's go! Get on board! ”
"...... Iniquity......"
"I'll compensate you then, what are you afraid of?"
The night that had been quiet had become noisy, and countless soldiers and civilians were forced to board the ship, and in this case, except for some soft things, it was naturally impossible to carry anything else, and the sound of crying and shouting suddenly became one.
"Sure enough, it made a mess."
Wei Tao shook his head slightly, this is indeed because of himself, but if it is not, how can it be done?
Fortunately, under the coercion of the sword, those craftsmen did not dare to disobey although they were unwilling, and finally did not need blood to sober them up.
Only half an hour later, all those who were going to get on the boat were also on board.
However, as expected, even if such a few people were reluctant, even if those craftsmen were forced to come up, it was impossible to take the Jiangxia ships in one pot, that is, they could capture one-third, forty or fifty ships.
"Lord, when you continue to suffer from it, please give an order!"
Seeing that Wei Tao still seemed to be a little hesitant, Gan Ning immediately hugged his fists and said to Wei Tao.
Of course, Wei Tao understood what Gan Ning meant, and even understood that it had to be like this, if not, he would definitely be caught up by the Jingzhou Navy who rushed to him.
Don't look at the small number of people in this naval camp, in fact, there are tens of thousands of naval troops in Jiangxia alone, just because Jingzhou has been peaceful for a long time, and Sun Cejun's army retreated not long ago, and all Jiangxia soldiers have relaxed.
In addition, the navy also has quite a few camps. In addition to this place to watch over the ships, there are other better stations, so there are not many people here.
If not, this is also a heavy place in Jiangxia, where can the defense be so weak?
Of course, this is also due to the fact that Grandfather Huang didn't expect Gan Ning to betray directly, but even sold their secrets backhanded.
"Xingba, give me an order to order all the soldiers to quickly set fire to the ship, once the fire starts. Set sail now. Don't stay for a moment! ”
"No!"
Hearing Wei Tao's order, Gan Ning immediately obeyed the order and left.
This is what Wei Tao has to do, which is to burn the ship down with a fire.
In this way, Wei Tao can be regarded as a heavy blow to the Jiangxia Sailor, and it is still a big hit. I'm afraid in a few years. Jiangxia sailors have not returned to the old view.
And Wei Tao can understand. I'm afraid that after today, the life of the people of Jiangxia will be even more difficult, in addition to Huang Zuhui being more exploitative to recover losses, then Sun Ce must covet Jiangxia even more.
This is also the reason why Wei Tao was a little hesitant. Naturally, he must be ruthless to foreign enemies, but he always has a benevolent heart towards the Han people.
"Drive! Drive! Drive! ”
Not long after many ships caught fire, a large group of Jiangxia people and horses galloped over.
In fact, the navy army has a sudden mutation, and it has not let other soldiers escape to report the news, but how can it not make people suspicious when it is so noisy at night?
When the fire breaks out, everyone can understand that something big is happening, and who can still do it at this time, they are rushing to come.
Especially Huang Jie, after setting up the banquet, he never saw Gan Ning coming, and then there was such a sudden change, almost all the people who were invited here knew in their hearts that Huang Zhu was brushed by Gan Ning.
"Damn! Damn it! Why don't you go and put out the fire? ”
Such boats and boats often have fire prevention measures when they sail on the river, so as not to ignite when they are fired by the enemy's rockets, but now they are not shot by any rockets, but someone deliberately set them on fire, even if there are any fire prevention measures, they are useless.
Even in order to make the fire more intense, Gan Ning directly ordered someone to douse it with fire oil, making the fire extremely fierce, where is it so easy to put out the fire?
Until after being busy for a few hours, it was only a few small boats that were saved, and the Jiangxia Naval Army, except for more than 20 moored in other places, could be said to be wiped out on this day, which was extremely sad.
"Gan Ning! Gan Xingba! One day, I will eat its flesh! Sleep on the skin! to eliminate the hatred in my heart! ”
Getting the news that Gan Ning had disappeared for a long time was just a guess, but suddenly it all became a reality, and Huang Jie's anger can be imagined.
However, Huang Jie is still the son of Huang Zu after all, so naturally someone reminded him at the first moment of the incident, and ordered people to rush to Xiangyang early, so that the Jingzhou Navy pursued Ganning.
"Gan Ning! The number of your sailors must not be large, and you are so greedy to take away my Jiangxia sailor and want to defect to Sun Ce, I will not let you get your wish! ”
In fact, at this time, everyone thought that Gan Ning was going to go to Sun Ce, and in this case, the messenger also galloped to Xiangyang.
But as soon as the soldier entered the city, he was stopped.
"Where are you a soldier? But what's the urgency? ”
The person who stopped the arraignment soldier was none other than Iraq.
Yi nationality is not a powerful person in Jingzhou, but he can see Liu Biao, so the soldier did not dare to slack off at the moment, and immediately reported to Yi nationality.
"Lord Qiyu, Jiangxia Ganning betrayed, and also took advantage of our army's unpreparedness to raid the Jiangxia Navy camp, seized dozens of ships, and burned the rest of the ships, and asked my lord to let me pass and report!"
"What! Gan Ning betrayed! The Jiangxia Navy was burned! ”
Hearing the soldier's words, Yi pretended to be taken aback, and then said.
"This matter is very important, then Gan Ning must not be able to run far, you should chase it quickly, you and hand over the letter to me, I will go directly to meet the lord, and let General Cai Mao immediately go to pursue! We will definitely capture the thief in one fell swoop to set an example! ”
Even if it is a major military situation, it is inevitable to report it again, so it will take a lot of time, this messenger is just an ordinary soldier, and it is impossible to meet Liu Biao directly, so when he heard the words of the Iraqi nationality, he did not suspect anything else, and immediately took out the letters and other items and handed them to the Iraqi nationality.
"You have meritorious service for this report, and you will have your own reward in the future, but now that the military situation is urgent, regardless of the merit reward for the time being, you can go down and rest first."
"No!"
The soldier thought that the task had been completed, so he naturally went to rest with confidence.
But how did he know that after he left, Yi Ji just put things in his sleeve and Yi Zang, and then changed the direction, that is, he found a good horse that had been prepared for a long time, and went out of the city directly.
It wasn't until a day later that Huang Jie, who couldn't wait for the news, couldn't help but come to inquire in person, only to know that something had happened again, and that the Iraqi nationality had also betrayed Jingzhou, and he intercepted the Jiangxia messenger, so that the messenger could not send Xiangyang in time.
But at this time, even if it is a yellow shot, it can only be helpless.
After more than a day's voyage, even if the sailor is up again, how can he be in a hurry?
(Thanks to the glorious charter, heaven?) Ye No Wukong's reward, and thank you for your support, thank you! (To be continued......)
