Chapter 114: Fierce Battle at Taihu Lake

For the rest of his life, Ma Wanli and Yu San held a banquet for him, and the banquet was staggered, and the crowd drank happily, and the scene was very lively. Yufeng told Cunyi that Zhao Zhuolong had been abolished from his martial arts by the Ma Gang Master, and he would no longer be able to cause trouble to the rivers and lakes in the future, and Cunyi's heart was overjoyed when he heard the news.

Just as everyone was drinking and talking, a minion broke in with a nervous expression. Ma Wanli put down his wine glass and asked what happened to the minions? The minions replied: "Helper, Jinyiwei entered the lake to encircle and suppress, and now it is less than twenty miles away from me to help by water. ”

Ma Wanli was taken aback when he heard this, and then Yu San stood up, and he comforted Ma Wanli not to panic. After that, Yu San gathered the helpers, prepared the flying grasping lasso, scratched the hook and crossbow, and rushed out of the water village to meet the enemy.

The fleet cleaved the waves and galloped towards the water village. Yu San ordered the arrow tower to guard the gate of the wall, and he personally led twenty tent boats to resist the enemy outside the wall in the shape of a goose. Soon the drums thundered, the horns were ringing, and Yu stopped at the bow of the ship to look ahead, and a sharp horn of the ship in the fleet was full of flags and armor.

In the midst of the armies stood a man. This person is nine feet tall, with a long sharp and thin face without a trace of blood, with horizontal eyebrows and two round jackal eyes.

When the two sides meet by water, a fierce battle is inevitable. Since ancient times, the army has emphasized "the division is famous", and Cao Qincheng is naturally familiar with this truth. The two armies lined up in formation, Cao Qincheng stopped at the bow of the ship, embroidered spring knife in his hand, pointed at Yu San and scolded: "You thief who invaded the state capital and plundered the people's property, now that the divine soldiers have come, those who know each other will surrender early. ”

Yu San did not show weakness, he danced two harpoons, and scolded Cao Qincheng loudly: "Bah, blush, shit, stink." Although Lao Tzu occupied the lake, he never robbed the people of a penny.

But you jackals in human skins are tyrannical to the people, especially Wei Zhongxian's eunuch is even more heinous. ”

After listening to Yu San's words, Cao Qincheng Yinshuangxue's face turned purple, the anger accumulated in his abdomen rose, and the whole person looked like a toad. Yu San saw that he was really angry, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Cao Qincheng screamed wow, waved his knife and ordered Jinyiwei to attack Yu San with a strong crossbow. Yu San waved the command flag, and the minions held the shield armor to resist the arrows in a line. The rain of arrows touched the shield and fell into the lake. The long-range attack was unfavorable, and Cao Qincheng ordered Jinyiwei to launch a small cangboat to meet the enemy.

Yu San waved the order flag, and the word array was divided into a goose-shaped array, and two teams of tentay boats rushed to the small cangboat from the flanks. The brocade guard unleashed his crossbow arrows, and the giant whale helped the people throw out meteor darts and shoot them all into the water. The former army was victorious, and the morale of the Giant Whale Gang was greatly boosted, and Yu San ordered the gang to change formations to kill the enemy. I saw that the goose-shaped array instantly turned into a long snake formation, and the long snake formation echoed from beginning to end, encircling Cao Qincheng with the momentum of attacking before and after.

For a while, arrows and darts were fired, and most of the Jinyi guards on the Fu ship were killed or wounded, and Cao Qincheng hurriedly ordered the helmsman to turn the bow of the ship. Yu Sanyan looked at Cao Qincheng, who was fleeing in the wilderness, and laughed loudly.

Yu San led the crowd to return to the village victoriously, and Ma Wanli hugged the wine jar and poured him a full glass of wine. Yu San took the wine bowl and drank it all. Zhou Fei and Cunyi also picked up the wine bowl to congratulate him, and Yu San grinned,

I can't hide the joy in my heart. Cunyi warned Yu San that Cao Qincheng was a scheming man, and although he lost the first battle, he should also be careful of his plot to sneak attack.

Yu San's face was flushed with alcohol, he patted Cunyi's shoulder, looked up and laughed wildly. Cunyi saw that the three pairs of eyes were confused and could not speak, and he knew that it would be useless to persuade him again, so he had to appeal to Ma Wanli for the proposal to strengthen the patrol.

Cunyi didn't expect that Ma Wanli didn't listen to Cunyi's good words and persuasion. Last time, he defeated Cao Qincheng's hands, and was chased by him all the way like a lost dog, but fortunately, thanks to the three struggles to protect, he got away with it. Since then, Ma Wanli has obeyed the three words, and Ma Wanli has not interfered with anything he plans to discuss.

Cunyi knows that he knows that he can escape from death, relying on the desperate rescue of Ma Wanli and Yu San, he doesn't want to hurt the harmony between his brothers because of the trivial matter of ringworm and scabies. In the failure of persuasion, Cunyi left on the grounds that he was not strong enough to drink. Yufeng and Zhou Fei saw Cunyi leaving, and they also walked out.

Zhou Fei saw that Cunyi's expression was solemn, and he was worried that he was recovering from a new injury, and it would be bad for his body to work so hard.

So let Yufeng comfort him. Cunyi also hoped that he was unfounded, and with Yufeng's company, his anxiety was relieved a lot.

Cao Qincheng returned to Linjiang Mansion with a disgraced face, Chen Zhifu and Liu Gongzi saw that his face was gloomy, and he didn't dare to ask for bad luck here, and was turning around to leave, when Cao Qincheng stopped them from behind. The two laughed together and asked him what he commanded?

Cao Qincheng summoned the two of them into the palace, and he asked Governor Chen to continue to send official ships to follow him into the lake to suppress bandits, and asked Liu Zhutou to go to the fishing village to recruit fishing boats to accompany him on the expedition. Governor Chen listened to Cao Qincheng's words, and pleaded again and again with a bitter melon face. He told Cao Qincheng that there were only a few official ships in the state, and that if they encountered floods or banditry, the official ships would have to cope with the needs of the emergency.

Governor Chen refused, and Cao Qincheng was furious. He stepped forward and grabbed the placket of Governor Chen's clothes and roared at him. Governor Chen's knees were paralyzed and his body was like mud, and under Cao Qincheng's intimidation, he could only nod helplessly in agreement.

Governor Chen thought in his heart: "The matter of the official ship is a trivial matter, Cao Qincheng, this guy swept away the bandits along the lake, and he can stay out of the matter and enjoy watching the fire from the other side." However, it does not make sense to requisition fishing boats to suppress bandits, and since he has been an official for many years, he has not benefited the people, and he is worried that taking away the fishermen's livelihood will cause them to be dissatisfied. ”

Governor Chen paced in the mansion with a gloomy face, Liu Zhutou came in to ask for peace, and Governor Chen told him in detail about the things assigned by Cao Qincheng. Liu Zhutou said: "The lesser of two evils, Cao Qincheng is a celebrity in front of nine thousand years old, if he slanders in front of a thousand years old,

I think adults will lose their official positions at worst, and they will be guilty of crimes at worst. ”

Governor Chen nodded, and asked Liu Zhutou to lead the servants to go to various fishing villages to collect boats. After Governor Chen left, Liu Gongzi quietly came to see Cao Qincheng. Cao Qincheng pretended to be posturing, still closed his eyes tightly, and asked Liu Gongzi in an arrogant tone what was the matter with him?

Liu Gongzi greeted him with a smile and stood respectfully in front of Cao Qincheng. He patted his chest and swore to Cao Qincheng: "Lord Cao, the grass on Taihu Lake is not enough to trouble, if you need it, I can let my father use the order of the military department to order the state government to lead the army to encircle and suppress." ”

As soon as these words came out, Cao Qincheng slowly opened his eyes, and his cold face unnaturally squeezed out a smile. Liu Gongzi gave him a salute as if he had received a treasure, in fact, he wanted to catch this smile in his heart, but it disappeared like a flash in the pan on Cao Qincheng's face.

Liu Gongzi went out of the house like a dog, and he asked the housekeeper Li Liu to write a good letter and report to Beijing as soon as he could.

That night, Cao Qincheng was also thinking about a sneak attack on the water village, but this water battle was no better than a land battle, and the army could be allowed to hide. The official ship took advantage of the night, if it were not for the open fire, it would not be easy to find the Giant Whale Gang in the vast Taihu Lake. Moreover, in today's contest with Yu San, seeing that he dealt with the battle well and commanded well, Cao Qincheng knew that this person had been in water warfare for a long time and would inevitably stay on guard at night. After some careful consideration, Cao Qincheng dispelled the idea of robbing the village, and only waited for reinforcements from all over the country to arrive, and then fought to the death with the giant whale gang.

For two or three days in a row, Ma Wanli and Yu Sanzhi drank wildly, they had a place to settle down, and defeated Cao Qincheng, it was the time when the spring breeze was proud. Cunyi saw that his injuries were fine, so he asked Ma Wanli and Yu San to resign.

"There is no feast in the world" Ma Wanli saw that Cunyi's mind had been decided, and it was inconvenient to force him to stay, so he ordered his minions to prepare for the journey, and his kindness was politely declined. Yu San clasped his fists to the three of them and told them to be careful on the road.

The three of Cunyi came out of the Giant Whale Gang, and Zhou Fei still returned to the hut in the forest. Yufeng asked Cunyi what his plans were? Cunyi was certainly hateful after this great disaster, but the prefect Qian Jin and Feng Kai, the prefect who designed to frame him, were even more hateful. He told Yufeng that he was going to return to Huangshi and settle accounts with the two thieves, Qian Jin and Feng Kai. made up their minds that the two of them would stay overnight and go to Yellowstone.

Liu Gongzi's letter was sent to the Ministry of War, but after Liu Shangshu opened it and read it, he did not pay attention to it. He reprimanded the family who sent the letter, saying that he did not know how to persuade his son, but instead connived at his naughty nonsense. The dispatch of troops is a major matter of military aircraft, and can it be done arbitrarily?

The family will send letters for thousands of miles, and the legs of the run are soft and the waist is sore, and he has not been praised by the master, but he is not. He turned his head around in frustration, and when he went out, he bumped into the person who came in.

The family will have a fire in their stomachs, and there is nowhere to vent. He didn't look at who the person was, and scolded in a low voice: "Blind things, they don't look at the dots when they walk." The man was furious and threw him out with a flick of his hand.

Liu Shangshu heard the sound of scuffles outside the house, and hurriedly rushed out to investigate. I saw a young man with a long sword, standing in front of the mansion angrily. At this time, he clenched his big fist, ready to swing at the general on the ground. Seeing this, Liu Shangshu shouted loudly, and the young man's fist slowly lowered. He turned around to look back, only to see an official man wearing a six-beam official hat and a scarlet robe standing majestically on the edge of the steps.

His silver-haired, piercing gaze was fixed on the boy. From the official uniform he was wearing, the young man already knew that he was the secretary of the military department. Then he smiled at him and bowed. Liu Shangshu was still angry, and he asked the young man why he was wild in his house?

The young man repeatedly compensated Liu Shangshu and explained to him that he was in a hurry because he was in a hurry, so much so that he collided with the generals in the house. Liu Shangshu saw that this young man was being bullied, and he was very unhappy. I also heard that he came to him to discuss important matters, and Liu Shangshu didn't plan to worry too much about him in small matters. He also scolded the family generals for not holding their mouths back, and they had a long memory when they were beaten. The general knew that it was boring to be here, so he had to leave stupidly.

After the family general left, Liu Shangshu asked the teenager's name and intention. The young man replied: "Lord Liu, the junior general Zhang Jianfeng is a general under the command of the Jinyi Guard, Tian Ji, and he is ordered by Lord Tian to have important matters to discuss with Lord Shangshu." ”

As soon as Zhang Jianfeng's voice fell, Liu Shangshu's face was clouded, he deeply hated Tian Ji's insidious and despicable person, it was "nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace", this time Tian Ji sent someone to find him, I don't know what happened again? Liu Shangshu was apprehensive, and invited Zhang Jianfeng into the mansion.
