Volume 1 Mu Xuanzhou Chapter 50 The War is Over

At this time, the chaos in the water village was coming to an end, and the naval warships could not exert their combat effectiveness at all in the chaos, so the fishermen took advantage of the characteristics of the small boats to move quickly and be flexible, and surrounded the water village and beat them indiscriminately. A large number of ships fell into the fire, and some ships wanted to follow the big boats to rush to the Zhaikou, but there were several large boats of 600 stones at the entrance of the Zhaikou that were burned by the fishermen's fire-starting boats, and then surrounded by a group of small boats, and soon sank at the Zhaikou, and several large ships of 4 or 500 stones, under the siege of a group of small boats, stumbled to the Zhaikou, and hit the sunken ship, and then the Zhaikou was blocked tightly. Except for small boats, which can come and go freely, large and medium-sized ships of several hundred stones can no longer rush out.

When some of the sailors saw that the situation was not good, they wanted to abandon the ships and go ashore and mingle with the warships rushing towards the village. Some of the ships approached the shore, the sails were set on fire, the oarsmen were killed and wounded, and some of the soldiers tried to swim ashore by diving, regardless of the depth of the water, but the small boats did not let them go, and the ghosts appeared, or slashed with knives or arrows, and the whole water turned red.

Xie Tonghe stood on the shore, looking at the hellish scene in front of him, and he wanted to cry without tears. At this time, a small school stumbled over, "My lord, the thieves are landing on the shore, and it will be too late if you don't leave!" ”

In addition to the four large ships that rushed out of the village, the Taihu Lake sailors have fallen into a sea of fire. Looking at the more than 100 frightened soldiers who fled ashore, Xie Tonghe knew that he couldn't deserve a blow from the Taihu bandits. But at this time, the battle on the lake has not yet ended, and leaving the battlefield at this time is no different from deserters.

However, the Taihu bandits helped him make a choice. I saw a group of fishermen come ashore, and they rushed to the camp in a disorderly manner. The little colonel grabbed Xie Tonghe's arm, "My lord, let's go!" And he fled to the back of the camp.

There wasn't much of value in the water-walled camp, but there were ordnance. The three masters led the team ashore, not to destroy the Taihu Lake Naval Division, but to grab some ordnance or other materials, but they didn't know that Xie Tonghe was actually in the rout on the shore, so they let Xie Tonghe escape.

At this time, the main warships of the four naval divisions where Zhang Qiao was located were in frequent distress. In order to seize the boat, the fishermen of Taihu Lake could not attack with fire, but they could shoot rockets to burn the sails, and the sails of the four boats were in tatters at this time, and they could no longer borrow the wind. The oarsmen could only be rowed by manpower, but after an hour of fighting, almost everyone of the oarsmen was out of strength.

And the sergeants on deck were not much better. On this Taihu Lake, the six-masted and seven-masted boats are much more agile and faster than the sailors' wide ships, and the boats are more adequately manned. The soldiers continued to fight fiercely, and they were also exhausted.

At this time, looking at the black on the Wusong River, it seemed to be an escape channel, but Zhang Qiao knew that it was a trap, and the big boat entered the Wusong River, which was inconvenient to move, and would be trapped alive, so he just broke through to Taihu Lake.

Zhang Qiao ordered four ships to work in pairs and close to each other, so that each ship only had to face each other. In the middle, you only need to guard against the opponent's small boat cold knife and cold gun. But the fishermen used the 800-stone boat as a breakthrough and jumped five times, and the boat was in danger.

Zhang Qiao ordered another thousand-stone ship to also come up, so that Zhang Qiao's thousand-stone ship was alone in front, and the other three ships were behind to support each other.

Han Shi saw the opportunity, so he deliberately relaxed, and the distance between Zhang Qiao and the other three ships gradually widened.

Zhang Qiao was a little anxious, so he wanted to turn around again. At this time, I saw that one of the three ships called a signal that it was going to take the opportunity to flee to the Wusong River.

This idiot! Zhang Qiao understood that it was another battalion commander who was playing tricks. But that's no longer possible. They're going to kill themselves, and that's just how they can get their guns. Zhang Qiao had a certain idea, so he ordered to turn around.

Seeing the four warships turn around, Han Shi also laughed, "Let them let these stupid pigs feed the fish in the Wusong River." "After all, the fishermen of Zhuzhai are not regular troops, and this vicious battle has really caused a lot of losses. If the officers and soldiers continue to die on this Taihu Lake, it is really not what Han Shi wants. Moreover, this war cannot be delayed, if it is delayed for too long, it will affect the future plan.

The boat seemed to hesitate for half a pillar of incense, and the four warships turned around first, raised their tattered sails, and finally borrowed some wind power, and rushed towards the Wusong River with all their might. Zhang Qiao did not follow the track of the three boats in front of him, but followed the wind to the east coast, and then turned back again.

As soon as Han Shi relaxed a little, Zhang Qiao seized the opportunity, and then turned around to chase after him, but it was not that he couldn't catch up, but it would take too long. Han Shi also made a quick decision and ordered the ships to continue to attack, and be sure to squeeze these three warships into the Wusong River and not give them a chance to destroy the warships. At least the ship was handed over to Shi Deping, who was rushing to the center of the battlefield.

Seeing Han Shi's signal, he didn't consider seizing the ship and demanded annihilation as soon as possible. Shi Deping's hideous face was full of excitement. At that moment, only two boats and several small boats were ordered to meet them at full speed.

There is no suspense about the rest of the war.

Shi Deping approached Zhang Qiao's warship, turned around with a beautiful tail swing, and then approached closer, and then all kinds of rockets and ignitions were thrown on it. Zhang Qiao's department was already exhausted, and the fire broke out all of a sudden. Shi Deping saw that the shipbuilding had become a fire and there was no cure, so he left two small boats to monitor and kill the enemy, so he hurriedly went to the Wusong River.

Someone on the boat couldn't stand it and jumped into the lake. Then a small boat rowed in a hurry, and stabbed with a spear, but there was no room for survival. Zhang Qiao and others couldn't stand it on the negative floor of the cabin on the ground floor, and they were squeezed into the negative second floor and suffered. The negative third floor is a watertight cabin, and you can't get in, and you are waiting for death when you enter. But seeing that the negative second layer can't be carried for long.

The three warships of the Taihu Lake Naval Division rushed into the Wusong River one after another, and saw the small boats in the river hurriedly dodging on both sides, and the soldiers were about to breathe a sigh of relief, but suddenly felt that the ships were stagnant, and then they were like being pulled by someone, and the momentum of the forward was dissipated.

While the crowd was not knowing what was going on, someone shouted. It turned out that Taihu Kou crossed the river with a rope, and a small boat was tied to each end of the rope. The boat was full of stones and heavy. Or one or two ropes are broken off, but more and more ropes are slipped. The ship could no longer move. The three warships gradually crowded together, and the Taihu Kou came up from behind, and some of the Lake Kou climbed up from the side of the boat.

The shouting of killing shook the sky, and the officers and soldiers of the Navy Division no longer had the will to fight, but the wolves rushed to the pigs, but where was there a place to escape? Except for a few lucky ones who fled to the reeds to survive, most of them could only die with a whimper.

In this vicious battle, from dark to midnight, the real strength of the thirteen villages of Taihu Lake was only 1,500 people, deducting more than 200 people who came to the aid on the Wusong River, and the real strength of the Taihu Lake Naval Division was only more than 1,200 people, but the Taihu Naval Division had no power to fight back. It is a rare example of defeating the strong with the weak and attacking many with small blows.

Due to Li Congyi's warning, the Taihu Lake Naval Division was also given a certain amount of time to react, but because the Water Gate fell too quickly and the Naval Division did not reserve emergency forces, the result was still unable to react, and most of the ships were burned in the camp. However, several of the main ships of the naval division still caused heavy losses to the thirteen villages of Taihu Lake. More than 120 people were killed in the battle, and more than 300 were wounded.

Originally, I wanted to attack Wujiang County to give it a try, but as soon as the Wujiang County sword archers came out and lost more than a dozen people, they retreated. At this time, I am afraid that the whole city is already vigilant. The Taihu Zhuzhai also has no siege equipment and experience, so naturally they can't attack the county town with city walls.

However, messaging has been extremely slow these days. After repairing, especially after getting acquainted with the warships of officers and soldiers, they went down the Wusong River, took advantage of the darkness before dawn to plunder Qinglong Town, and then rushed to sea from the Yangtze River port before the whole army of the Yangtze River Naval Division in Suzhou came. After that, he went to the island where Han Shi had been laid out for two years, and since then he has lived a life as a sea coward, and he is no longer subject to the official birds.

At this time, news came, and when he learned that the Huzhou boat had gone and returned, and had rescued a group of officers and soldiers on Zhang Qiao's ship, Han Shi only nodded. After all, this is just a small episode. But when he heard that Shi Deping had lost more than 30 people at the hands of the Huzhou soldiers, even Shi Deping would have fallen asleep due to excessive blood loss. This made Han Shi shocked and angry, this partial division, the number of people killed in the battle accounted for a quarter, and although Shi Deping was the thirteenth master, he was actually the first person in the village to be brave, but his qualifications were too shallow to be the end.

However, this account can only be calculated slowly in the future.

Han Shizheng urged all villages to abandon the small boats according to the plan, and only keep some necessary small boats, and large and medium-sized ships should be brought first, regardless of whether they are suitable to go to sea or not. Some ships can't go to sea, but the wood is excellent. When you arrive on the island, you can remove the planks and use them to repair the ship or build a new one.

I saw Lu Yuan, the master of Bazhai, coming in a hurry. In addition to providing a full set of plans to annihilate the enemy, Lu Yuan was also responsible for reconnaissance of the surrounding enemy situation. Seeing Lu Yuan's grim face, Han Shi was also worried that the expected officers and soldiers would suddenly appear.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan said softly, "Then the Huzhou boat sent someone to say that the Duke of Tang Jiangguo had something to say to the big boss." I brought the people, can I see the big boss? ”

"Tang Jiang Guogong? That group of people is not Huzhou soldiers? Han Shi was surprised.

"The messenger claimed to be Jiang Guogong's personal guard."

Why is Jiang Guogong here, why is he still sitting on the official ship of Huzhou Mansion? However, the high-level affairs between Tang and Wu Yue, how can Taihu Zhushui Village be qualified to understand. At that moment, he put these irrelevant questions in his mind, "Since people dare to come, what are we afraid to see." ”

Li Congyi has three meanings: first, Wu Yue was too heavy on the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes of the Taihu Zhuzhai, so he sympathized with the behavior of the Zhuzhai in anger and resistance, and the two sides fought on the battlefield with their own life and death; The second is that if there are injured people or old and weak women and children who have not been transferred in Taihu Zhuzhai, the Jiangguo Mansion can provide protection, you can go to Yixing first, and then go to Xuanzhou to resettle, and then cooperate with Jiangguo Gong, or find an opportunity to go to the sea, listen to the respect, and the third is that the Taihu Zhuzhai will loot Qinglong Town after that, hoping to restrain the army, only plunder large households, and rarely hurt people's lives.

Listening to Gu Dazhuang's words, Han Shi laughed so much that he burst into tears: "Jiang Guogong really has a bodhisattva heart. After laughing, Han Shi turned his face, "Two questions: First, why does Jiang Guogong want to help us?" If you think that you want us to give him your life because of this little favor, there is no door! Second, what if I just want to slaughter Qinglong Town? What can Jiang Guogong do to me? ”

This question has been rehearsed for a long time. Gu Dazhuang said immediately: "Jiang Guogong said that since he collided, he would help if he could, and it would be a great merit to be able to kill a few fewer people, and there was nothing else to ask for." You ran to the sea, unrestrained, and Jiang Guogong couldn't order you. Jiang Guogong also said that if the Taihu Lake villages really want to Dakou Qinglong Town and cause a tragedy in the world, then no matter when and where they meet again, they will be mortal enemies. However, if you want to come to Taihu Zhuzhai, it is also a hard worker, and it is just a matter of grabbing some gold, silver, rice, flour, fish and meat from large households, so why bother ordinary people? ”
