Chapter 239: Beacon fires and wolf smoke rise on all sides

Where the Great Chu soldiers gathered, the highest peak had already ignited a thick smoke.

This thick smoke hovered unscrupulously in the sky, drifting into the distance with the wind, and even if you were dozens of miles away, you could clearly see the smoke ignited.

This is a beacon of smoke that symbolizes the coming of danger, and it is also the signal of the coming of war.

Once ignited, it also indicates that the matter is urgent, there is no room for error, there is no delay, and it must be on alert at the first time.

For a while, the desolate horn sounded in all parts of Dongting Lake, which also reminded other forces guarding in various parts of Dongting Lake to pick up the weapons in their hands and prepare to meet the attack of the Song army and prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation.

Song Jun is coming.

This is the first reaction of all people when they hear this horn.

Murong Yu rode a horse and followed Tang Tang, running around, like a crowd facing a great enemy, and ran to the edge of the cliff.

What appeared in front of him were dozens of huge warships, the hull of which was on the surface of the large Dongting Lake, as if walking on the ground, without feeling any discomfort at all, like a giant, extremely stable.

On the hull of the ship, there were even more people with weapons in their hands, looking at the Song army in the distance.

Murong Yu and the others did not hesitate, threw down the reins of their horses, explained their identities to the soldiers on the side of the boat, and easily got on the boat.

At this time, Zhang Mengxian was standing on the side of the ship, holding a telescope and looking at the scene in the distance.

I saw that the dense Song army warships in the distance, the momentum was unmatched, and they were rushing towards the island in the wind and waves, and there were thousands of them.

However, even so, compared to the Great Chu warships, these ships are a bit trivial, let alone insignificant.

Zhang Mengxian looked at the scene in front of him with a solemn face, his mood was extremely heavy, obviously, he also knew that today's battle was not as easy to solve as before. This group of Song troops alone is no longer the same as the one they met before.

It can be seen from the banner of the commander of the Song army in the distance that this time it is the Yue family army led by Yue Fei.

This battle must be a tragic battle, and it is also related to the life and death of the Great Chu State.

Once this battle is lost, the Song army will be unstoppable and attack the island, and as for the result, I am afraid that no one wants to see it.

Now, the time of life and death of Da Chu has arrived.

Many soldiers of the Great Chu State, including men, women, old and young, all held all kinds of weapons, and ran over from a distance desperately, gathering towards the warship, stepping on the planks of the ship, so that it was not lively.

Murong Yuwu stood beside Zhang Mengxian, his face calm, and he didn't speak.

He just stood quiet, watching the scene in the distance.

This kind of scene, although he had seen it in the book before, was described about such a plot.

However, he had never seen a scene with his own eyes, and he never felt that such a scene would be so shocking.

Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I have found that the original army of hundreds of thousands of people is facing each other, the black clouds are overwhelming the city and the city is about to be destroyed, and the sky and clouds and shadows are hovering together, how frightening it is.

The mighty momentum, like the dark clouds on the horizon, swarmed, in the thunderous drums, overwhelmingly sounded, the atmosphere was extremely solemn, and the war was about to break out.

The sound of drums after drum seemed to tear the whole sky apart.

In an instant, the warships of the Song army surrounded the entire island.

Although there were quite a lot of warships of the Song army, they were arranged quite well, as if they were well-trained.

However, the two sides did not attack immediately, but just confronted each other, waiting for one side to strike first.

The Song army was on the warship in the center, and there were many guards, densely surrounded around.

Under the banner, in the middle of the crowd sat two soldiers in full armor, their expressions calm and calm, talking and laughing.

These two people are none other than the commanders of the Song army this time, Zhang Jun and Yue Fei.

Yue Fei said with a smile, "Xiangye, please forgive the subordinate for being rude, I really can't understand why he suddenly led the army to attack at this time? Since it was a sudden attack, why didn't he sneak attack at night, wouldn't it be easier to achieve victory? Xiangye's move, the subordinate really couldn't understand. Could it be that Xiangye has other strategies to suppress bandits?"

Zhang Jun grabbed his beard and smiled slightly, "Yue Shuai doesn't need to worry too much, this official's trip is just to verify one thing." ”

"I don't know what kind of thing is Xiangye, what is it to verify?" Yue Fei asked suspiciously.

Zhang Jun got up and walked to the side of the ship, and said thoughtfully, "Look at this Great Chu State warship, compared to you and me, I don't know how many times bigger, and I don't know how much stronger. If the soldiers of the Great Chu State directly forcibly collided with such a warship, I am afraid that our soldiers will definitely suffer heavy losses, not to mention that we want to achieve victory, even if we want to enter this cave, it is also extremely difficult. What's more, the old man heard that this Great Chu State warship was the handwriting of Mo Longzhi, a master of the Mo family's machine forging, if we don't find out the flaws of this warship, it will be extremely difficult for our army to win. Then, he looked at Yue Fei with a puzzled face, "For today's plan, the reason why the old man sent troops is also to try the mystery of this Great Chu warship, only in this way can we find a way to crack it." ”

"Xiangye, is he trying to take the opportunity to let Fu Chu know what to do?" Yue Fei seemed to think of something, and hurriedly said.

"Yes, that's the best way. Zhang Jun said with a smile, "For other things, please be able to act as planned?"

Yue Fei hugged his fists and said, "Although Xiangye can rest assured, although I, Yue Fei, am a martial artist, I will never drag Xiangye's hind legs, and I will try my best to complete Xiangye's orders." ”

And on the handsome ship of the Great Chu Kingdom, Zhang Mengxian naturally couldn't see the situation here, what it looked like.

However, Zhang Mengxian looked at everything in front of him calmly with an extremely relaxed smile, obviously planning to win this war.

As the saying goes, if you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent, which is also the worst plan. It is also his only choice, because behind him is his last home, and he has no way out.

Suddenly, a general came to report, "Marshal Qiqi, all the soldiers of my Great Chu State are ready!

"Okay!" Zhang Mengxian shouted in a serious voice, "Command the three armies, beat the drum and attack!"

The drummer of the Great Chu State got the order, and hurriedly picked up the drum hammer in his hand and struck it, and the drum sound immediately turned from slow to urgent, and the rumbling sound resounded throughout Dongting Lake.

Almost at the same time, the drums of the Song army also came from not far away.
