The leader of the Japanese invaders looked down at the half-cut tip of the knife as if he was dazed and incredulous: "Ho ......"

Stiffly turned his head.

It's Wusheng Zhen Xin.

The hand holding the hilt of the sword was half charred and half exposed, and his body was wrapped in raging fire, like a god and demon, and he struck out of hell with bitter hatred.

The flames climbed into the ship along the trail of oil, and in an instant thick smoke billowed up, like a demon guarding its side, and in a resolute gesture wanted to plunge the pirates into hell.

In the fire, Zhen Xin looked up to the sky and smiled.

"Hahahaha...... Loyal and brave Yang family general, bloody battlefield to protect the country. This body will go to the mountains and rivers, what a pity to repay the king with a hundred deaths!

Certain! But after the martyrs!

The young general of the Yang family, Yang Zongbao is also! ”

The light of fire finally engulfed him completely, along with his last words: "...... the official of the Emperor"

At this moment, the fire is soaring to the sky, the two sides of the strait are bright at this moment, and the city tower is all moved at this moment.

The king choked with tears and gave a big gift to Jiang Xinchang.

"Old man, for the people of Yu County, thank you!"

Chen Yin'er hugged Lu'er Lantern tightly, as if holding on to the only hope.

Qi Ming couldn't cry anymore: "Brother Lu......"

"She's not going to die."

Chen Yin'er's face turned pale, but she still looked at Qi Ming firmly: "The seven-star lamp is not extinguished, she will not die!" ”

Perhaps the heavens did not allow them to grieve, and a roar suddenly sounded in the originally blazing river, rushing towards the shore from far and near.

……

Although this plan is dangerous, it is not completely death, according to the plan, Lu Qi quickly dived into the depths of the river after lighting the fire.

In order to facilitate the transportation of salt boats, Yuxian County will dredge the Yujiang River every three or five years, and the water depth in the center of the river is even as high as five meters, and the shallow place is also two or three meters.

And the grease floats on the water, and only the surface water is boiling, after all, the entire Yujiang River has such a amount of water, if you want to boil it all, I am afraid that it will be difficult to climb to the sky.

As long as you dive into the depths of the river, you can get hot, but there is one problem that cannot be avoided, and that is - how to breathe with your head out.

It is necessary to get out of the burning waters as soon as possible, otherwise the air in the lungs will be depleted.

Lu Qi pedaled the water like a staircase, and could move forward a lot with every step, a child born in the water town of the south of the Yangtze River, swimming is already the instinct of the body.

"Plop! Thump! ”

From time to time, there were burning pirates falling into the water, some struggling between the fire and water, and some gradually stopped moving.

Through the sound of the water, you can vaguely hear their last sorrow when they are at the end of their rope.

In winter, the Yujiang River is often calm on the surface, but underneath its calm appearance, there are always dark tides.

And tonight is the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the tides that are more violent than usual are the strongest helpers for Lu Qi to survive in this plan.

Lu Qi held his breath and tried his best to swim towards the end of the firelight in the distance.

But it's still too far......

In my previous life, I heard that the highest record of underwater breath-holding was more than 20 minutes, which shows that it is still far from reaching the limit of human beings!

Hold on!

Another charred corpse fell, and unfortunately it was smashing on Lu Qi's body, and a string of bubbles that could not be held back spit out, she hurriedly covered her mouth and nose.

More and more bubbles slipped through the fingers, and it was dark underwater, but it grew brighter and brighter.

Lu Qi understood that this was the body that had reached its limit.

His body began to float uncontrollably, and the current on his side became hotter and hotter until Lu Qi hit the bottom of a hard wooden boat.

The ship did not burn!

At the moment of life and death, Lu Qi's mind suddenly cleared up, this is the opportunity!

The Japanese were driven by large boats, which had a deeper draft than ordinary small sampans, and when the boats were moving, the water would be pushed away, creating a low-pressure area behind the boat.

Lu Qi touched the rear along the keel at the bottom of the ship, fortunately, this was probably a salt ship, and there were hooks and bolts at the head and tail to connect the front and rear ships.

Lu Qi climbed on it before finally exposing his head to the water.

At this time, the Japanese on the ship were in a state of panic, and no one noticed that there was an uninvited guest at the stern.

They had just seen the miserable fate of their companions, and they were afraid that they would be affected, so they all joined forces in relay and shook the oars to smoke, and they were now sitting in the boat like they were in the boat for the rest of their lives.

Away from the rolling flames, the mist gathered on the water again, completely covering Lu Qi's figure.

Lu Qi gasped lightly and turned his head to look back.

Why is there a faint sound of fire shouting and killing from downstairs over there?

……

I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky.

On the few enemy ships closest to the shore, the remaining dozen or so Japanese soldiers climbed ashore with scars, but they were faced with dozens of firearms, crossbow arrows, and black muzzles of cannons waiting up and down the tower.

With a sea of fire behind them and a dead end in front of them, the widows looked at each other, and they all saw the sorrow of the end of the road in each other's eyes.

"Obey orders!"

The colonel raised the order flag in his hand.

Suddenly, a hand reached out in front of him and stopped him: "Slow down. ”

Xiao Xiao stopped the order flag in mid-air in confusion: "What does the king's book mean?" ”

The king did not answer, but asked him rhetorically: "Are these widows still strong and terrifying?" ”

Xiao Xiao was stunned: "The main book is asking these widows under the city?" They fell for Master Lu's plan, and all of them were seriously injured, and it was already the end of the crossbow. ”

"In that case, don't do it for the time being." The king stroked his long beard: "Order someone to open the city gate, and let the people go out of the city to kill the enemy together!" ”

Everyone present was shocked.

Qi Yicheng was the first to see his thoughts, frowned disapprovingly, and said softly: "This old king! ”

Removing the horses, unlocking the iron locks, and pushing away the boulders blocking the gates, the gates were finally opened with a "creak".

"After listening to the sound of the bell for half a night, it's finally my turn to show my skills!" The head of the dart carried a silver spear and jumped out of the ranks.

The Taoist priest in the back drew his sword out of the sheath with a loud voice: "Kill the enemy Jianye, at this time!" ”

When they came out of the city gate and saw the battle, they were all taken aback.

"What a fire! What about the Woko? Only two or three such sick cats? ”

Just as he was about to ask, a young voice suddenly came from behind: "The front is scattered!" We are from the Yuxian Wang clan! ”

The ranks of the people hurriedly dispersed.

A vanguard who shouldered the small flag galloped out, followed by a dozen or so Wang disciples, all armed with carved bows, long swords at their waists, and wearing uniform strong clothes, rushing out from the city gate.

Now that the city gate has been opened, there is no need to stay on the city tower anymore, Chen Yin'er followed Qi Yicheng and Qi Ming and others to the outside of the city.

"Father."

Qi Ming looked at the current battle in confusion, and asked Yi Cheng softly: "Then a few remnant enemies, the fire gun can be eliminated in one round, why bother to let the people come out to meet the enemy?" ”

Qi Yicheng sneered: "Hmph! Lao Wang is a very important family. He wanted to open the city gate, but he took a fancy to the weakness of the remnant enemy and asked him to come out to pick up the credit! ”

After all, they are all young masters, and their military literacy is not even as good as that of the guards, and it took a lot of time just to list an array.

Seeing that the whole tower was watching them, some of them were so nervous that they couldn't even hold their bows.

After tossing for a while, he barely stretched his bow and arrows, and he had a little appearance.

At this moment, the Japanese suddenly moved first!

……

Lu Qi was climbing on the stern of the boat.

At this time, the blood between life and death gradually cooled, and the temperature in the middle of the night in early spring was still hovering at the freezing point, Lu Qi only felt that the cold air invaded his body, and a piece of white mist came out.

The stern of the boat suddenly sank, and Lu Qi hurriedly dodged down, and heard the sound of the Japanese talking.

"Your Highness."

！！！

They didn't even speak Min language!

Lu Qi's eyes widened.

She had taught herself Japanese in her previous life, and she would not be mistaken, but the Japanese on this ship actually communicated in Japanese, and they were "real Japanese"!

"Your Highness, those Ming people seem to be dead, what should I do now?" His men gathered around His Highness.

"The abominable Great Ming Kingdom...... Such a vicious scheme was used! His Highness angrily slammed his fist on the side of the ship, and several of the surrounding would-be robbers bowed their heads and shouted.

After venting his anger, His Highness calmed down.

"Can't go back! I came out to show off in front of the old man, and if I lost my troops and went back empty-handed, not only would people see the joke, but the old man would not trust me in the future! ”

His Royal Highness held a sword and looked around: "It's a thick fog...... Ono, how many more people do we have? ”

The subordinate who was called responded: "Fortunately, His Highness is very intelligent, let the Ming people fight the Ming people!"

My subordinates just saw that our three ships had already withdrawn, but when they retreated, they panicked and didn't know where they went......"

"Oh?" His Royal Highness finally had a little joy: "Those Ming people don't have to worry about the death, as long as our people are still there, they can make a comeback!"

In this case, let's go back to Fotou Island to rest for three days and gather your subordinates!

Also, what the hell is going on with that fire? It's too powerful, I have to go back and ask the merchant for more pioneers......"

After Lu Qi listened, the coldness on her body couldn't withstand the coldness in her heart, and she began to tremble unconsciously.

This news is too important, you must tell the king to book them!
