Chapter 813: Crossing the River

Hunjiang.

Near the banks of the Yalu River, there is a village called Liujia Village. The villagers live a daily life of fishing and farming. Pick up a hoe when the farm is busy, and catch fish when the farm is not working.

Now is the time for farming.

But. The village was occupied by Wu Nian. The villagers of the village were secretly relocated to live in other places.

Evening.

In a courtyard surrounded by a fence wall, there are three blue brick houses.

Inside the hall, the lights are bright. Outside the gate, there is a team of personal soldiers on guard duty.

Zhang Zhen, Lu Yanxun and other personal soldiers entered the hall with wine and food. A round table was placed in the center, and Wu Nian was wearing a purple robe and a scarf on his head, sitting on the north side.

Zhang Zhen, Lu Yanxun and others put the wine and food on the table. Zhang Zhen picked up the wine jug, put it on for Wu Nian, picked up the wine cup and said, "Uncle." ”

Wu Nian nodded, stretched out his hand to take the wine cup, raised his head and drank it all. Then he looked up at Zhang Zhen and asked, "Are you scared?" ”

"A little nervous, but more excited." Zhang Zhen shook his head, a red light appeared on his face, and his eyes bloomed with essence.

"The general despised us. Manly husband, how can he be afraid. Lu Yanxun said with his head held high.

"Huh." Wu Nian smiled, then waved his hand and said, "There is no nephew in the army. I won't invite you to eat or drink, but go down. ”

"Yes." Zhang Zhen responded and retreated with Lu Yanxun and the others.

Wu Nian looked down at a table of wine and food, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and after eating like a storm, he called Zhang Zhen and others to come in and clean up the plates.

Then he picked up a book of soldiers, came to the Taishi chair and sat down, and read it at night. I don't know how long later, he felt sleepy, so he put down the scroll, picked up the oil lamp on the coffee table, and went into the master bedroom to sleep.

Zhang Zhen, Lu Yanxun and other personal soldiers did not dare to slack off, holding spears and bows, or standing guard or patrolling, and the water around this courtyard could not be drained.

Early the next morning. Wu Nian, under the service of his own soldiers, calmly got up to wash, had breakfast, and came to the hall to recuperate.

When the time comes. He put on his armor and brought a steel sword, and boarded six fishing boats with his soldiers. The fishing boat, dressed as a fisherman, was propped up from the river bank with a long pole, and then slowly entered the Yalu River and headed for a ferry guarded by Goguryeo naval forces.

Target crossing.

There is a water village of the Goguryeo naval army. There are dozens of warships and 2,000 soldiers in the water village. The guard is Li Tiansheng.

Such ferries spread throughout the Yalu River, forming a network to prevent Wu Nian from crossing the river.

When Li Yun-chung and Zhao Man's success or failure returned to Goguryeo. The defenses of these water villages are very tight, and the soldiers are like tight bowstrings, and the terrifying atmosphere permeates the army.

Such a powerful 50,000 soldiers crossed the river and almost wiped out the whole army.

The terror of the Liaodong Tigers shocked everyone.

But with the delivery of the letter of Fuso, Goguryeo began to relax from the top down. Now in a blink of an eye, spring is going to autumn and coming.

The defense of the water village has been even more lax.

In the big tent. Li Tiansheng got up early in the morning, and after eating breakfast slowly, he took a foot combat spear and played in the open space outside the tent.

Although his surname is Li, he is not of the same clan as the Empress Dowager of the current dynasty. The reason why he was able to become a general and command 2,000 soldiers relied on his military exploits.

In Goguryeo, there are many gate valves. With his background and current status, he is already at the top.

It's not impossible to go up, but it takes luck against the sky.

For example, in the battle with the Liaodong Tigers, he obtained great military exploits.

But it's also unlikely to think about it.

Although the upper and lower levels of Goguryeo did not think that Wu Nian dared to ignore the threat of the Fusang people and cross the Yalu River. But no one wanted to launch another campaign against Liaodong.

The last defeat was too tragic. The queen mother was almost overturned to the ground, and if anyone dared to propose a war in Liaodong, the queen mother would not agree.

So, that's the end of his career. Live each day and wait for retirement.

I practiced spear and knife skills, and I boiled my body again, and I sweated. Li Tiansheng looked up at the position of the sun, although it was still far from noon. But he was already figuring out what to eat for lunch.

"What a leisurely day." Li Tiansheng shook his head, returned to the big tent and sat down, picked up the military book and read it.

The lines and lines of words on the book of war are all Chinese characters. But in Li Tiansheng's eyes, it was mediocre. For people like him, Chinese characters are too simple.

And in fact.

Many books have to use Chinese characters. For example, the Book of War. When the book is translated in Goguryeo's own words, there are some places where ambiguity arises.

All in all, Goguryeo's writing was not mature. The people who use it are civilians.

Lazy.

Li Tiansheng, as the guard of this water village, was full of laziness. As the saying goes, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked.

Li Tiansheng is like this, and the soldiers below are naturally learning from each other.

But even so, the soldiers are doing what they should do. Half of the water village is built in the water and half on land.

The stockade surrounded the warships and set up a gate for the warships to enter and exit.

Today.

Under the arrangement of the officers, the soldiers carried out the lookout mission normally. A group of soldiers stood on the gate of the wall, chatting and observing the movement on the Yalu River.

Everywhere you are a soldier, it's pretty much the same.

The camp was full of men, and the soldiers hadn't been home for a long time. It's normal to tell each other a colored joke and discuss which daughter-in-law and which girl.

They were chatting hotly.

Suddenly, one of the soldiers noticed the anomaly and said, "There is a big ship." The rest of the soldiers turned their heads to look.

I saw five large ships coming from south to north on the river.

This is normal. Although Goguryeo occupied the right to control water, it did not dare to anger Wu Nian. An order was issued from above, not to detain the Han ships.

Soldiers could often see Han Chinese boats and fishing boats sailing on the river. It's just that the boats of the Han people generally run on the rivers on the Liaodong side.

These five large ships sailed in the middle of the river and looked quite arrogant. And the scale of these five ships is also a bit large, revealing anomalies.

"Knock Knock Knock !!!" A soldier beat a gong and drum. The soldiers on the shore reacted quickly, and immediately more than a dozen warships, carrying hundreds of soldiers, sailed out of the water village and rushed straight to the five big ships.

The speed of the warship was very fast, and without waiting for the five large ships to react, they approached.

The Goguryeo soldiers looked up at the panicked faces of the sailors on the deck. The officer, who understood Chinese, immediately shouted: "If you don't want to die, drop the rope and pull us over." ”

With that, the officer waved his hand. The Goguryeo soldiers on the ship immediately opened their bows and crossbows and aimed them at the sailors on the big ship.

The sailors were very flustered when they saw this, and it was a moment later that someone threw down with a thick rope. The Goguryeo warriors grabbed the rope and narrowed the distance between the ships of both sides.

Then the Goguryeo soldiers began to board the ship and entered the cabin like tigers and wolves to inspect it.

Meanwhile. There are six small fishing boats quietly approaching the water village.
