Chapter 513
In Cao Junzhong, everyone was in an uproar, and they didn't believe in this incredible thing at all, because the weirdness of this matter itself had broken through the scope of common sense.
Of course, Cao Cao's face was also full of surprise, and his eyes were so shocked, as if he couldn't believe that the good news he heard was real.
After snatching the message from the scout's hand and examining it carefully, Cao Cao's unfathomable gaze had become extremely shocked and excited: "How is it possible, how is it possible, how is it possible!"
Before everyone could react, Cao Cao had already shouted: "Who found out about this news, lying about the military situation, and his crime should be punished!"
The scout was shocked, and said urgently: "The lowly duty is responsible for delivering it, maybe this news is wrong......"
As he spoke, his legs trembled.
Cheng Yu and the others asked suspiciously: "How did the lord know that this was a lie about the military situation!"
Cao Cao threw the information to the others and sneered: "Scout Dao Haobai actually crossed the river with hundreds of fighting ships, you can believe it!"
In an instant, all the generals were messy.
Fighting ships!
Such a behemoth, it is extremely difficult to manufacture, even if there are craftsmen, it will take months to build, not to mention that it can carry 30,000 horses, that requires hundreds of fighting ships, and it will definitely not be accumulated in a few years, how can people dare to believe it!
Just when he was puzzled, two more scouts galloped over, and said urgently: "Lord Qiqi, that Jingzhou Haobai conjured a fighting ship with a spell and crossed the river by boat, and now he has led the army to attack the thief army on the other side of our army. ”
"What!" Cao Cao was shocked, pulled out the Heavenly Sword, pointed at the two scouts, and scolded sharply: "Demonic words confuse the public, Haobai is not a demon god, how can he conjure up a fighting ship!"
The two men were so frightened that they fell off their horses and knelt down in front of Cao Cao, and one of them said in a trembling voice: "When crossing the river, the lowly rank was mixed with the fishermen, and it was really clear to see it, and that Haobai was indeed pointing towards the middle of the river, and the next fighting ship landed from the sky......"
The audience immediately fell silent, staring at the terrified scouts on the ground.
Finally, Cheng Yu let out a long sigh and said, "Xiaguan has also heard that Haobai is good at spells, and it seems that it is true." ”
At this moment, Cao Cao's face became extremely embarrassed, in fact, when the scout said that Haobai had conjured a fighting ship, he already believed it in his heart, and the reason why this was the case was because he knew that Haobai had done too many things that were incomprehensible.
For example, when the princes were begging for Dong, when they dispersed, Haobai took a large number of people from Luoyang, but as far as Cao Cao knew, Haobai's army did not bring grain and grass at that time, but he was able to leave slowly with so many people.
His army of 100,000 men had been entrenched along the river for nearly a month without making progress, and he had spent a great deal of manpower and material resources building ships.
Seeing that the soldiers under his command were united and their morale was high, which greatly improved the process of making ships, which made him very relieved and proud in his heart, who knew that Haobai conjured hundreds of fighting ships in a moment, easily crossed the river, and defeated the enemy army in one fell swoop, which was simply the irony of Chiguoguo to him!
Since sending troops to fight against Yuan Shu, Cao Cao has been holding his breath, since the crusade against Dong Zhuo came back, the other princes have been developing with peace of mind after expanding the place, but he has been at war, and there is no one to mess with around, and he was still fighting with Lu Bu before.
Cao Cao almost poured out of the nest this time, attacking Yuan Shu's main force with all his might, just to deter the others, so that he could deal with Lu Bu with peace of mind in the future.
Cao Cao saw that he had defeated Yuan Shu's main force and forced Yuan Shu to retreat to Shouchun, which could be regarded as letting the world see the power of Cao Shu's army, but as soon as Haobai came, he gave him a heavy hammer.
It was nothing to cross the river first and break through the enemy's defenses, but what really shocked him was Haobai's spells!
If this is a pretending to be a ghost, it would be fine, but Cao Cao had a deep premonition in his heart that most of this spell was true, otherwise Haobai would not have many strange things.
Cao Cao slowly raised his head, looked at the turbulent Huaishui in front of him, thought for a long time, and finally made up his mind, and shouted angrily: "Order the three armies, prepare to cross the river and kill the enemy!"
Cheng Yu hurriedly said: "The lord ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Cao Cao waving his hand: "Five hundred ships are in front, and the rest are all crossing the river on a bamboo raft, so I can't care about it so much, we must take the lead in breaking through Shouchun City and capturing Yuan Shu, otherwise I am afraid that it will fall short and be dominated by Haobai." ”
......
The waning moon is like a hook, the night is hazy, and a layer of vast water mist rises on the river surface, giving people a feeling of dream-like but not dream-like.
In the mist on the north bank of Huaishui, the ships appear and disappear like black water monsters, and behind the ships are endless bamboo rafts, every ten bamboo rafts are connected together with thick ropes, covering the entire river surface.
A shout came and went in the mist, noisy in the night sky.
Hundreds of warships lay flat on the river, and behind them are endless bamboo rafts, like a huge dark cloud, obscuring the river.
Cao Jun crossed the Huai River in 80,000 nights!
On a huge warship, Cao Cao stood in front of the deck, his red cloak hunting and flying in the river breeze, he looked at the thousands of sails of warships on the river and the Cao army with guns and halberds, and he didn't feel that his pride increased.
Huge lanterns are raised, illuminating the entire river as if it were daylight.
Woooooo
The sound of trumpets continued to sound, the sails were pulled up, and the trumpets of the sailors began to roar on the river.
On the south bank of Huaishui, Yuan Shujun's water village is still silent, most of the soldiers have fallen asleep, only the soldiers patrolling back and forth on the shore and the boats shuttling across the river.
A flash of fire slowly lit up from the junction of water and sky in the distance, and it became brighter and brighter.
"What's that!" Someone spotted the distant firelight, the firelight was getting closer and closer, the river hundreds of meters away was illuminated, and the red light filled the sky, and gradually you could see countless warships coming downwind.
"The enemy is coming! The enemy is coming! Go and report to General Ji ......"
The screams rang out, with boundless fear, and spread far and wide in the night sky.
Ji Ling, who was sleeping, was suddenly woken up by a hysterical scream, and jumped up in shock.
The riverside water village was panicked, chickens and dogs jumped, and shouts came and went.
Ji Ling, who had arrived here, only felt that the world was spinning for a while, as if the end of the world was coming, and it took a long time before he roared hoarsely: "Meet the enemy quickly!"
......
Above the Huaishui, the firelight filled the sky, reflecting the sky of the entire south bank in red, and the shouts of killing were even more in the quiet night sky, spreading to a radius of more than ten miles.
Four or five miles away from the battle between the two sides, there was an army, which was Haobai's army of 30,000.
