"Why does this drum still stop? Champion Hou Xiaorui is too domineering, do you want to scare us with the sound of drums all the time? Xu Datong listened to the annoying drum sound here, and scolded angrily, "Order, invite the champion Hou to come out and see him again." ”

So the neat trumpet came out again: Please come forward to see the champion Hou!

……

Xiao Rui stood on the deck of the big ship he had snatched, calculating the time in his heart, at this moment, the bereaved love should have already connected with the people of the island in the middle of the lake.

It's not okay to avoid it like this, the sky is getting brighter, and the other party is already suspicious, and it can't be delayed for too long.

So Xiao Rui ordered, the big ship approached the opponent's main ship, and met the commander of the sailor for a while.

"Where is the commander of Jingxiang Water Master? Xiao Rui is here! The two sides were only fifty meters apart, and on the lake with less than thirty meters of visibility, no one doubted that the opposite side was not the champion Hou. I'm afraid no one in this world dares to pretend to be the champion.

I saw it clearly, I saw it clearly, it was a big ship, a big ship like us......

The people of Jingxiang Sailor vaguely saw the shadow of a big ship, although it was not real, but it was definitely a big ship.

So he hurriedly reported to Xu Datong, and now he had no doubts, it seemed that the champion Hou Xiaorui really came with a strong sailor.

"Master Hou, we are being ordered to suppress bandits, I don't know that Master Hou is here suddenly, and interferes with our withdrawal of troops, what do you mean by this?" Xu Datong asked inwardly.

Xiao Rui snorted coldly and reprimanded: "Commander Xu, Ben Hou heard that in order to suppress the bandits this time, you have openly cut off all river ships and blocked the Yangtze River for more than a month. How daring? Who gave you the right? ”

Xu Datong's heart suddenly struck, should the imperial court send the champion Hou to order accountability for this matter?

"Master Hou, we are all acting on the orders of Lord Wei Xiang. Wei Xiang is also helpless, the Dongting water bandits are huge and intertwined, and if they are not careful, they will be entrusted by them, and they will resurrect in the future. Therefore, Wei Xiang ordered to directly block the river, so that the Dongting water bandits could be wiped out! ”

Xiao Rui asked, "Acting on orders?" Okay, where is the Qin Cha Wei Xiang? Benhou came on the orders of the emperor, and he ignored the laws of the imperial court and blocked the river without authorization, which greatly damaged the national economy and people's livelihood. Now he ordered Er and the others to immediately withdraw from Dongting Lake and return to the camp of the Sailor Division. Qin sent Wei Zheng and Xu Datong, the commander of the water division, the two of them were temporarily suspended for reflection, and they waited for Ben Hou to find out everything and send them out separately! ”

What???

Xu Datong panicked and was suspended for reflection? Is this still worth it? Once suspended for reflection, wouldn't that be handing over his life to Xiao Rui? I am rampant in this land of Jingxiang, and I have soldiers and generals in my hands, how can I hand over power?

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Datong gritted his teeth and said, "Master Hou, I will not be affected by the life of the monarch outside!" At this time, we are fighting fiercely with the Dongting water bandits, and we can make a contribution in one fell swoop, and the fighter plane is fleeting, so please forgive me for not being able to take the order. Fengjiang is at this time in January, and when the end of the general destroys the Dongting water bandits, he will ask Hou Ye for his guilt after the war, and when the time comes, he will fight and kill, and let it be disposed of! ”

"Order, all the warships of the Jingxiang Naval Division will be killed towards the island in the middle of the lake, and they will land on the island to destroy this group of water bandits!"

Xiao Rui stomped his feet angrily after hearing this, "Presumptuous! In front of Ben Hou, do you dare to disobey Xu Datong? Come on, beat the drums, if there is any change in the Jingxiang water master, he will be punished as a rebel immediately, and I will be punished for everything. ”

Hiss......

Xiao Rui's words carried a momentum, and he used internal force to spread all over the lake, and the people of Jingxiang Water Master were all frightened. If it is a nobody, everyone will definitely not take it seriously, after all, we only follow the orders of Shangguan to act, but the person who came is the champion Hou, and his words are too weighty.

As the drum sounded again, it was like a giant hammer smashed into the heart of Jingxiang Water Master, and finally someone couldn't stand it anymore, and persuaded him: "Commander, or we listen to Lord Hou, let's withdraw first......"

"We were originally regular sailors of the imperial court, if we were really branded as rebellious, would we die young, and what about the old and young in the family? All will be put on the side of the sinner......"

Xu Datong said angrily: "Bastard, now that the matter is over, do you and I have a way back?" If Xiao Rui knows that we have imprisoned Wei Zheng and pretended to herald the arrow, I am afraid that you and I will be corrected by him as soon as we return to the camp. ”

At this moment, the movement of the island in the middle of the lake came out, and a trumpet shouted: "Quick, blow the trumpet quickly, the Dongting water bandits are going to run ......."

The anxious trumpet sounded, and the herald came to report: "Commander, there is movement in the direction of the island in the middle of the lake, and it seems that the group of water bandits is taking the opportunity to escape!" ”

Escape?

Understood, it is said that the Lai brothers of the water bandits have a lot of relationship with Xiao Rui, and now it seems that this is true, where is Xiao Rui here to punish the crime? It was clear that he was here to save people, and he deliberately dragged us to help the Dongting bandits escape!

"Order, give me a siege to annihilate them, don't let any of them go!"

Xu Datong has already thought about everything clearly, just wait for this battle to be over, and then take advantage of the chaos to kill Wei Zheng, even if Xiao Rui really came down with the emperor's order to be held accountable, he also has something to say, he can push everything to Qin Cha Wei Zheng, anyway, everyone is dead without proof.

"Commander, what about the champion Hou's side? If we move, they'll come up and stop it! ”

Xu Datong said angrily: "At this time, it is important to suppress bandits, and whoever dares to stop them is the same party of the water bandits, and we are not afraid of him even if it makes trouble in the imperial court." Tell Xiao Rui that we will do our best to suppress the bandits, if he dares to come up to stop it, don't blame us for not being merciful, the crossbowmen shoot, don't let them get close! ”

The distance was very close, Xiao Rui naturally heard this movement, so he scolded again: "Don't wait for yourself to ...... mistakes"

Xu Datong shouted: "Master Hou, I'm sorry, the battlefield is ruthless, and it is the duty of our Jingxiang Water Division to suppress bandits." You'd better not get close, our crossbows don't recognize people! Anyone who dares to approach our big ship will be shot with a bow and crossbow! ”

Xiao Rui smiled bitterly, and said in his heart that he was bluffing, and he had no more drama, so he could only borrow arrows from a grass boat, and reluctantly helped the bandits drag the crossbowmen of the Jingxiang Water Division, hoping that the warship trained by the Lai brothers would be useful.

"Drums! Press it up! ”

……

"Get rid of them and march all the way to Jiangbei, where someone answers!" The big boss came to Ji and ordered loudly. But the strength of Jing Xiangshui Master is half a pound and eight taels with them, how can it be so easy to get rid of?

Fang Er, who fled with the Lai brothers on the boat, looked up at the sky, Taiyuan was slowly rising, and the dense fog was gradually receding.

"It's not good, the fog has cleared, and Brother Xiao is in danger of being exposed at any time!"

Sure enough, at this moment, Jing Xiangshui also found out that something was wrong, "They are small boats, they don't have big boats, they are all small boats......"

"It looks like a straw man, and the boat is full of straw men......"

"Quick, Express Commander!"

……

After a while, Xu Datong brought people back, and when he saw the truth about Xiao Rui's grass boat borrowing arrows, he didn't stomp his feet and get angry, but laughed.

"I see, Xiao Rui? What a bold man, he dared to use a small boat and a straw man to fill the number, and lied to me that it was the heavenly soldiers of the imperial court who arrived? I was almost blinded by you! ”

"Come on, surround me, today the general will not only destroy the water bandits, but also capture the champion Hou of the water bandit party alive."

"The champion Hou is famous all over the world, three thousand dare to one hundred thousand, but on this water? It has to be our battlefield! ”

Xu Datong's excited heart was about to jump out, everyone knew that the champion Hou Xiaorui supported the crown prince Li Chengqian, and their Jingxiang Shui Shi was a fan of the fourth prince Li Tai, if he took advantage of the chaos today to kill Xiao Rui in Dongting Lake......
