Chapter 404: Heartbreaking
The burst boat, under the blue sky, on the green rippling lake, is so beautiful. However, the prince's face was very ugly, and he still calmly ordered: "Separate and disperse." ”
The power of the explosion of the boat was too great, even when it sank to the bottom of the lake just now, I could still clearly feel the terrifying power that destroyed people. The seven or eight small boats that had originally gathered around them scattered when they heard this. And the one who didn't know how to water, against the backdrop of the prince's composure, held the boat tightly and ordered his companions: "Hurry up and go ashore." ”
Without waiting for the boat to land, fire flew out of the woods on the shore, but fortunately, the man was very good and quickly dodged. The man visually measured the distance and had to tell his companion, "Go back to the middle of the lake." ”
Zheng Zhi had already judged the situation at this time, and said to the prince: "The attack range of their firecracker is about fifty zhang, and it is not the latest firearm of the Shenji Battalion. The thing that hit our ship is only a long firebolt. They haven't played a second time for so long, and the cooldown time can't be short, so it can't be ruled out that they can't hit you and deliberately don't fight. In addition, the smell of their firearms after the explosion was wrong, and the purity was not enough, so they should be privately made. ”
The problem with private manufacturing is that it is not known how much they have in their hands.
Regarding Zheng Zhi's assertive statement that these people came at him, the prince did not object. The water of the lake is cooler than the surface of the lake, and he doesn't mind staying for a while longer, what he is more concerned about is: "Hasn't the imperial court already supervised all the raw materials for firearms?" ”
This kind of idiotic question is still asked?
Zheng Zhiqiang resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and asked rhetorically: "The imperial court explicitly prohibits corruption and bribery, how many civil and military officials are clean?" And most importantly, is this the time to wrestle with these? ”
The prince stopped talking, and after looking at the movement in the woods, he had made up his mind in his heart, but he still asked Zheng Zhi: "What do you say now?" ”
It is impossible to stay in the water all the time, and it is dangerous to go ashore. They lost no less than 200 people in the forest, and they were nowhere to be seen at this time, but they were afraid that there would be more luck and less luck. can make them disappear without realizing it, and the other party is only afraid of sending a lot of people.
This is the prince's speculation.
Zheng Zhi said: "The probability of all our people being killed in an instant is very low, and the biggest possibility is that someone has defected. ”
It was a judgment that the prince did not accept.
At this moment, there was a "poof", and someone fell into the water again. The crown prince and Zheng Zhixun looked for prestige, only to see a person fall from the nearest boat - at the same time, the man standing on the boat felt a ball from his waist and threw it at Zheng Zhi and the prince. After Zheng Zhi threw out an object full of water with his backhand, he pulled the prince into the water.
The sight under the water was terrible, and the prince still saw the brilliance of the two things colliding and exploding, so close to the water, and death was so close to them. Surfacing to the surface again, Zheng Zhi looked at the sky and said, "It's not good." ”
What was not very good, but it was not said.
The prince looked at the young man on the boat who took out another round ball, and sighed: "Wang Ze, what can they give you, what can't be given by lonely?" ”
Wang Ze, the third son of Wuchenghou, is one year younger than the prince, the prince's former companion and first-class guard, and he really has a small affection, just like King Han and Zheng Shizi. The prince doesn't understand, really doesn't understand.
Zheng Zhi's hand reached to his waist.
He had two signal balls on his body, which were thrown at the same time, slammed, and hit with a dazzling red light, which could not cross mountains and mountains, but could be seen miles away in the woods. Just now, in order to save himself, he had already used one. As a result, the ball in Wang Ze's hand was too weak, and the light was no longer red, but seven-colored. And judging from the water, the bright high point did not go beyond the woods, and the people outside could not see it at all.
I'm afraid I'll have to throw it to a high place.
After making a decision, Zheng Zhi hooked the prince while swimming, and frowned: "Wang Ze, who made that thing in your hand?" ”
"Are you scared?"
Wang Ze, who did not answer the crown prince, accepted Zheng Zhi's words with great interest.
Zheng Zhi took a big breath and said, "No, it's a little weak, you come to see me." ”
After speaking, Zheng Zhi threw away his second signal ball. He blocked Wang Ze from taking the ball in his hand to meet him, and he had to hope that Wang Ze could see the landing point and let the two balls meet in the air. At this moment, Zheng Zhi was really heartbroken for Wang Ze.
The ball thrown by Zheng Zhi flew towards Wang Ze at the same time, and he also tried to fly high.
Wang Ze didn't know his purpose, and thought that he was in a high place, and Zheng Zhi was in a low place, so he threw it high. In this way, it is exactly what Wang Ze wants. Zheng Zhi asked who made the fireball, and the answer was that he Wang Ze did it. He wants to use this ball to prove that he is better than Zheng Zhi!
The premise is that you have to save your life.
Wang Ze did not allow the two balls to collide above his head, so the balls collided at the highest point and burst, the same colorful color, but the height exceeded the trees on both sides of the river, and it was so beautiful that the people in the woods saw it.
At this time, Wang Ze heard Zheng Zhi say: "Thank you!" ”
Only then did Wang Ze realize that he had been fooled, and while rowing, he reminded the people on the shore: "That is Zheng San's signal ball just now, play at speed!" ”
With that, Wang Ze quickly sailed to the shore, leaving the battlefield to the prince and his group.
The prince asked Zheng Zhi, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"I'm not sure anyone can see it, it's useless to see it, our people are basically in the woods. There are still people in the Zheng family in the city, but they may not be able to see the height just now, and they may not be able to rush to see it, so we still have to rely on ourselves. Forcing them to shoot quickly, we took advantage of the lake to hide. And they are privately owned firearms, and there will always be a time when they will be exhausted, and at that time, we will still have a chance to escape. ”
But at that time, everyone also ran out of strength.
The prince didn't say anything, but with Zheng Zhi's body, he deployed loudly: "Disperse, don't go ashore, wait for reinforcements." ”
and Wang Ze, who went far, believed in the reinforcements.
Without waiting for Wang Ze to go ashore, the crown prince and Zheng Zhi were already waiting for the same boat. The boat is not big, and it is the limit to take four people. Zheng Zhi and the prince are best to ride separately, but at this moment, Zheng Zhi didn't believe anyone except himself, and decided to follow the prince every step of the way.
On the shore, after Wang Ze conveyed the words of Zheng Zhi and the crown prince, the leader reminded him: "Could it be an empty city plan?" ”
Wang Ze was stunned for a moment, and said secretly, there is really such a possibility, but then vetoed: "How can someone like Zheng San have such a brain?" However, your concerns are not unfounded. Shoot some guns first, at intervals, sometimes fast and sometimes slowly, so that they can't figure out the actual situation, and they have to concentrate all the time to tire them first. Let's go and grab the other boats first, get the boats, and immediately pack up the gang! ”
Sure enough, about half an hour later, Zheng Zhi found out about this, and he said to the prince: "Their loading and unloading time is not fixed, maybe it is to confuse us." ”
In order to avoid the fireball, they had been wandering around the lake, and the prince was already a little dizzy, and he asked Zheng Zhi: "If the people in the city see the signal of Fang Cai, how long will it take to run here?" ”
"I don't know, I don't know if they can see it, I don't know if they can get there, if they can get there!" After a pause, Zheng Zhi pointed to the shadow in the distance and said, "More importantly, they got the ship." ”
The musket can't hit them on the ground, so what about relying on ships to close the distance? Where else can they hide? Their lives were in danger, but these people who were still by the prince's side showed tiredness on their faces, but none of them showed the slightest fear.
