Chapter 558
Wen Chou smiled with his hands, the boat had not docked, and the person had jumped off and waded ashore in a few steps.
When the military Sima heard that it was a caravan, his guard relaxed a little, but he said in a deep voice: "We have an order, and any idle people are not allowed to enter the ferry without permission, so you should leave quickly." ”
"It's getting dark, and the guys are tired, so please make it easier. Wen Chou smiled and stepped forward, and casually put a piece of mutton fat jade pendant, pretending to give it to the military Sima.
The military Sima was a knowledgeable person, and when he took a picture of the afterglow of the setting sun, he knew that it was pure mutton fat jade, which was worth thousands of gold, and it was impossible for ordinary people to get it, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
I secretly admired that this person's shot was indeed generous, and his doubts were reduced by a few points.
The military Sima immediately put the mutton fat jade pendant into his arms, immediately changed his face again, waved his hand, and said: "It is really dangerous to sail at night, so I will open the net and let you stay at the ferry for a while, but you all have to stay on the boat and are not allowed to get off the boat, you know?"
"Understood, thank you, General. Wen Chou thanked him again and again, and hurriedly called the rest of the merchant ships to dock, and called out the wine and food prepared on the ship to reward the soldiers on the shore guard.
The money was also taken, the wine was drunk, and the Cao soldiers were even more relaxed, and they relaxed their vigilance after the release.
A sober-minded military marquis couldn't help but ask: "Is it inappropriate for so many merchant ships to dock here, it is better to ask General Xiahou first!"
That military Sima couldn't help but be angry, he had just received a heavy gift from others, if he asked Xiahou Yuan, if he made a bad trouble, not only would the jade pendant be handed over, but he might also be punished.
The military Sima said angrily: "Some small things, Lao Tzu has also done the master, there is no need to bother the general!"
The man was yelled at by him, so he had to hang his head and stop talking.
Looking at those soldiers who were eating and drinking, a sneer flashed in Wen Chou's eyes, and he muttered: "Money can make ghosts grind, and that's true!"
Before you know it, it's nightfall.
At this time, the night is still cold, the Cao Jun Water Village in the night fog, a silence, in the dim light, there are still groups of patrolling soldiers shuttling back and forth, the arrow tower is even more crossbow arrows, and there are still sentinel boats cruising on the river.
In the dry village on the shore, a team of soldiers and horses galloped slowly, and one person in the middle, wearing refined chain armor, hanging a sword at his waist, and riding a white horse on his hips, was Xiahou Yuan, the chief general of the Cao army.
Xiahou Yuan naturally knew that the more critical the moment, the more he could not take it lightly, especially at night, and it was also when the enemy attacked at night, so he would inspect it in case anything went wrong.
Xiahou Yuan slowly came to the front of the water village surrounded by a group of generals, then turned over and dismounted, and patrolled all the way along the water village.
Xiahou Yuan governed the army strictly, and when he met the sergeants who dozed off and only cared about chatting along the way, he severely reprimanded them, and praised and comforted the soldiers who stuck to their posts.
It's just that the sky is not satisfactory, maybe Cao Cao's gas is exhausted, and the direction of Xiahou Yuan's inspection this time is to go upstream first, and plan to inspect the upstream and then inspect the downstream after the inspection, otherwise Wen Chou's plan will be empty after all.
Seeing that Xiahou Yuan was gradually moving towards the upstream direction of the northwest, the Hao army in the downstream direction of the southeast had already begun to move.
At the second watch, Wen Chou saw that the time was almost up, so he ordered all the soldiers hidden in the cabin to get off the ship.
More than a dozen elite scouts, like raccoon cats, had already sneaked to the bank of the river and killed the guards on the watchtower on the bank of the river.
Hundreds of elite soldiers of the Hao army, like ghosts, took advantage of the cover of night to walk in a row, and quietly touched the shore.
A patrol group of soldiers just arrived, and when they saw this group of uninvited guests, before they could react, they heard the sound of crossbow arrows, and this patrol team of more than 20 people died under the random arrows before they could make a sound.
Hulala~
Hundreds of warriors of the Haojun army flocked to the water village like a tide.

The hand rises and falls, a drunken guard on duty, all in their sleep to do the ghost under the knife, occasionally meet the sober, after all, not defeated those wolf-like elite soldiers, either become a ghost under the knife, or be shot into a hedgehog by random arrows.
Wen Chou successfully took hold of the shore, and urgently ordered three piles of fires to be lit to send a signal to the army on the north bank.
At night, on the north bank of the Junshui River, boats of all sizes are like clouds, and there are countless bamboo rafts, crowding the riverbank.
The faces of the crowd were solemn, their eyes were like lightning, and they stared at the other side tightly.
Whew, whew!
On top of a high mound of earth on the opposite bank, a fire rose into the sky, illuminating the sky above the entire muddy water, and also igniting the blood and passion in the hearts of the soldiers of the Hao army.
"Pull the sails and go!"
The sails were pulled up, countless oars and paddleboards were waved in unison, and the sound of water on the entire river was loud.
After a short time, one by one, the rafts, under the guidance of the fire, smoothly sailed into the water village on the opposite bank.
Wen Chou led hundreds of soldiers to jump off the ship and fight all the way into the enemy camp.
Lost vigilance, the unsuspecting enemy army, for a time was killed to the devil crying wolf, and then countless torches were lit, lit everywhere, the water village was lit, everywhere was fire and smoke, making the enemy army in the water village more and more chaotic.
Tens of thousands of soldiers took advantage of the chaos to slash and kill everywhere in the enemy's water village, and the Cao army was suddenly attacked, and the troops and equipment were at a disadvantage.
When the army had all landed on the south bank and swept most of the water village all the way, Xiahou Yuan hurriedly led his troops to come, but unfortunately it was too late, even if Wen Chou maintained a gentlemanly demeanor at this moment and let Xiahou Yuan organize the queue to meet the battle, it was only a share of being crushed, not to mention a chaotic army.
Xiahou Yuan is not a person who does not know the times, seeing such a scene, he knew that the general trend had gone, and immediately led the two or three thousand people temporarily organized around him to rush to the dry village.
Xiahou Yuan sighed helplessly and said: "I didn't notice it for a while, I was concealed by the thief army, and I attacked the water village, it's impossible to do anything, it's useless to stay longer, let's withdraw quickly!"
After Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, he ordered to blow the horn of withdrawal and fled south.
Wen Chou, who climbed on the riverbank, had already turned over on his horse, dancing a spear in his hand, riding his horse like the wind, and killing all the way from the shore beach.
Tens of thousands of troops soon entered the dry village, but the dry village was similar to the water village, there were deserters everywhere, and many soldiers who could not escape raised their hands to surrender.
At dawn, when the first rays of sunlight penetrated the morning mist, Wen Chou, who had not slept all night, did not feel the slightest sleepiness, looking at the Chinese army banner that loomed in the morning fog and fluttered above the water village, his cold and iron-like face couldn't help but swell with a happy smile.
In this battle, tens of thousands of Cao troops were killed and captured 10,000 people, and finally followed Xiahou Yuan and fled, less than half of the men.
After cleaning the battlefield, it was already noon, and at this time, a horse came running.
"Report! The main army is twenty miles away, and it will arrive before sunset!"
Wen Chou laughed and said to the soldiers behind him, "We are the pioneers, fortunately not dishonored!"
