Verse 44, although I don't know why the other party suddenly stopped. Zhu Huai was overjoyed, and laughed loudly: "Good opportunity, I hope that the troops of Shuicheng can come over as soon as possible." "Shuicheng is also several miles away from Nanning, and the soldier has been sent out just now, but I'm afraid it hasn't arrived yet, and I don't know if it's too late.

The enemy did not stop long on the river, and after a short while, only the sound of golden drums on the opposite side could be heard. All the ships accelerated at the same time and pounced again.

In just a few moments, soldiers had already arrived on the city wall. Under the leadership of non-commissioned officers at all levels, they lined up neatly at the head of the city. One of the workers was particularly conspicuous as they rushed up from below carrying a large pile of parts. At present, a person is fair-skinned, but he is wearing a wide official uniform, which is even more different, who else can this person be if he is not Lu Fang.

Wu Ming and Zhu Xiaolong and a large group of martial artists greeted them at the same time. Zhu Xiaolong was shouting from afar: "Xiaolu, what's fun to bring again." "Lu Fang and Zhu Xiaolong are already of the same age, and after Zhu Xiaolong worships Wu Ming as a teacher, the knots between the two are solved. Lu Fang originally liked to tinker with some strange things, which was even more lethal to Zhu Xiaolong. So by now, the two are friends who talk about everything.

Lu Fang put down these things and commanded the people of the Ministry of Works to assemble them on the city wall. He said with a smile: "Since there is a battle today, I will try how powerful this thing is on the city." ”

Putting a thunderbolt on the city walls? Wu Ming's heart moved, this idea is not bad, but Lu Fang is now temporarily cramming, just such a thunderbolt, I am afraid that the role will be limited. Zhu Xiaolong is touching here and there, looking full of interest. Wu Ming looked at him, and was about to call him back again when a small cyan sedan chair came slowly, and two maids followed him, and they walked up the stairs. Yuqing actually came? It seems that Zhu Xiaolong said that he informed her, not nonsense.

For this woman who is about to become his wife, Wu Ming is both eager and a little afraid. Just when he didn't know what to do, he heard a martial artist shouting: "Look, the 20,000 sailors have already fought the enemy." ”

At this time, on the river, hundreds of boats competed for the current, and thousands of ships set off together, and the 20,000 left-behind naval troops in Nanning had already met the opponent's middle army, and the two sides fought together on the river. For a time, the sound of drums above Jiang Xin shook the sky, and the sound of shouting and killing was earth-shattering. In the shadow of the sword and sword, a large piece of black pressure was entangled together, fighting to the death.

At such a close distance, the fire-breathing ship will no longer dare to act indiscriminately, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will be itself that suffers. I saw that after each side shot a few rounds of arrows, they then collided together and began a broadside battle. The enemy was outnumbered, and they were in a group of ten ships, and the Jiangnan navy attacked one of them, and the men of the other ships rushed over to support each other through the decks connected to each other. However, the Jiangnan Navy is skilled in water warfare, and almost every soldier is good at fighting on water. The two sides were twisted together, and they couldn't hold each other for a while.

More than 20,000 people only stopped the enemy's army in the middle, while the enemy in other sections still puffed up their sails and swooped straight towards the south bank. In the upper reaches of the river, hundreds of enemy ships went down the river, and in a short time they reached the south bank. They lowered the gangplanks they had prepared on board, paved an improvised wooden bridge, and then, with a shout, rushed up from the boat like a tidal wave.

The western city wall of Nanning, the imperial palace has been built in a rough outline, and there is a high foundation and a half-built city wall everywhere. Because of the sudden attack of the northerners, those craftsmen have withdrawn, leaving only all kinds of construction tools, placed horizontally and vertically on the construction site, looking from afar, a mess. In this section of the river near the construction site, because of the construction of the imperial palace, the workers took local materials and dug countless large pits on the bank to obtain sand and mud. This section of the river is even more turbid, yellow, green, and green are extremely disgusting.

The sailboat of the northerners is very large, and it can only stop when it is more than ten meters from the shore, and if it goes any further, it will run aground. As soon as these soldiers rushed down, they all fell into the water and became real chickens in the soup. But they ignored it, and rushed up to the shore with a cry. The muddy water splashed everywhere, and the surface of the river rolled as if it were boiling.

If you really let the other party calmly land on the shore, and then attack the western city wall of Nanning, when the time comes, the enemy will be attacked on both sides, and the city of Nanning will lose the benefits of the river, and the other party will have one more attack point, and the consequences will be terrible. Wu Ming was so anxious that he looked up at Zhu Huai, and saw that the other party was holding Yan Zhi with one hand, but his body was standing at the head of the city like a javelin, and he didn't move.

The landing force of the Northern Han Dynasty had already waded through the water, and some of the soldiers had already reached the shore, drenched like mud figures that had just been fished out of the water. They shouted and pounced on the construction site on the shore. At this critical juncture, "Knock-knock-knock-", the dull sound of golden drums sounded on the head of the city, and with these few thunderous drums, a large group of people riding various mounts suddenly appeared in the construction site, as soon as these people appeared, they didn't say much, and rushed out along the gap in the ruins.

This time it was an enemy raid, and Zhu Huai must have been a little caught off guard. But these spirit beast soldiers appeared at the first time and attacked the enemy head-on. The timing is breathtaking. This must be an emergency measure that Zhu Huai has planned in advance and arranged in advance. Wu Ming breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he was even more surprised and admired by Zhu Huai in his heart. looked back at Zhu Huai, but saw that he was still standing straight at the head of the city, without blinking his eyes. He wasn't tall, but he looked imposing.

In this moment, Lu Yu had already led thousands of spirit beast soldiers to let out a strange shout. rushed towards the Northern Han soldiers who had just landed. The soldiers had just come off the ship, and their minds were still dizzy. In addition, I have just rolled in the muddy water, and my whole body is even more inconvenient. The spirit beast soldiers waited for work, and this rushed out, and many soldiers were blinded at that time. Haven't figured out what's going on yet. Lu Yu took the lead and rushed forward. The tiger under his seat was not far behind, opened his bloody mouth, and picked up a soldier, who immediately bit into two, twisted the tiger's buttocks, and swept the tiger's tail at the same time, and several soldiers screamed and fell on the beach.

The others behind him were even more courageous, rushing forward with a flurry of slashing and chopping. The blood suddenly stained the water and the shore in patches of red, and the yellow mud looked even more shocking. After a charge, those spirit beast soldiers were still not satisfied, and let out a shout, and Lu Yu led a group of people to return to kill again. It seems that he is vowing to kill the disembarking soldiers.

"Oh-oh-", on the giant ship of the Northern Han Dynasty, the gong of Mingjin finally sounded. It seems that they also know that there is such a group of tiger and wolf cavalry guarding the west of Nanning, and it will be difficult to land on the shore.

All the soldiers who were still in the water heard the sound of the gong and rolled and crawled towards the boat. The spirit beast soldiers' rush to kill scared the courage of these people. A large group of strangely shaped cavalry shouted and chased after them in shallow water. Suddenly, a rain of arrows hit the giant ship, and these spirit beast soldiers were killing and couldn't dodge, and several people fell from their mounts at that time.

It was the archers on the ship who were powerful, and Lu Yu took the rest of the soldiers, took the mount stupidly, and retreated.

Wu Ming looked at it from afar, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this world is really full of wonders, the combat power of these thousands of spirit beast soldiers is really awe-inspiring, it is said that the entire team has a total of nearly 10,000 people. It is no wonder that Fuzhou relied on this team to deter the southern barbarians, and Liao Qing did not dare to act rashly. When I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation, but I don't know who is more powerful than this strange cavalry and the elephant cavalry of the Southern Barbarians.

While thinking wildly, Zhu Xiaolong suddenly shouted, "Oops, they're rushing over this way." His tone was both nervous and excited, and he said, waving the spear in his hand a few times.

Now Wu Ming has no time to care about him. When I looked up, I saw that the sailing boats upstream saw that they could not land on the shore, and in the sound of the earth-shaking drums, they actually rushed straight towards the side of the Nanning city wall. At this time, the battle in the center of the river was in full swing, but there were also more enemy ships bypassing the central area and rushing towards Nanning City from both sides. The enemy ships downstream bypassed the Jiangxin war zone and rushed straight towards the dozens of fighting ships parked on the shore. Those fighting ships were all modified Thunderbolts, and Zhu Huai was going to test fire this afternoon, but he didn't expect this to happen.

Wu Ming's heart sank, these fighting ships were not only loaded with hundreds of thunderbolts, which were the key to the translation of the Southern Han Dynasty, but those black armor troops had received orders, and they had not yet rushed over, and they were almost empty ships on them. If you really let the other party rush over, these ships will definitely be scrapped, let alone used to break the enemy. He gritted his teeth and was about to remind Zhu Huaishi. But I saw a rapid sound of war drums coming from downstream. Countless giant ships puffed up their sails from the downstream and rushed over at a gallop. The warships of the Northern Han Dynasty were shocked when they saw this, and they began to turn around. There are still dozens of small fighting ships there.

Most of their ships were connected, and if they waited for the other party to get close before turning around, it would definitely be too late. Wu Ming looked at it, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Be careful." Yang Xiong next to him suddenly pulled Wu Ming. He was startled and quickly fell to the ground. As soon as he lay down, he heard a sharp sound of breaking the sky, and when he looked up, he saw a large black shadow suddenly appear in the air. The black pressure was almost like a locust coming, it was a rain of arrows from the enemy.

The enemy ships upstream finally rushed to the bottom of Nanning City with the enemy ships that had leaked down in the middle. This rain of arrows was fired by the enemy. It stands to reason that there are still about 20,000 Jiangnan naval troops in Jiangxin fighting with the Northern Han ships, so why should the enemy first wrap 20,000 people in dumplings before launching an attack. It's really unreasonable to rush in a hurry now.
