Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 910

Weishui is a little-known tributary on the north bank of the Yellow River. It originates in Wei County and flows into the Yellow River from Ji County.

Therefore, the caliber of the river flowing into the Yellow River is extremely vague, forming a large area of ​​tidal flats and swamps. It is necessary to pass through these swamps stretching for dozens of miles to reach the real main river.

Because of such a harsh geographical environment, Ji County did not set up any camps and garrisons here, but some tyrants in the vicinity divided and occupied it, and operated some fishing and hunting here.

Tian Ni's slightly larger ship was left at the downstream ferry. As for the other soldiers, they were also disrupted and evenly distributed on more than 40 warships.

This time, the only consolation is that the loss of warships was not too serious. Except for a dozen or so sampans and the three warships that were lost in rushing to beach and embankment, the rest were all preserved.This is also because the Huainan Army in Lingchangjin had almost no boats for combat. Once the Jijun soldiers withdrew, they would have no way to pursue them.

But this was not enough to make Tian Ni feel better. Along the way, his face was terribly cold, and he even personally whipped and scolded those boatmen who didn't work hard.And on the warship he was riding on, the atmosphere was extremely suppressed, except for the oars beating the water waves, there was almost no human voice.

When the fleet arrived at the estuary swamp, the speed inevitably slowed down. Although it looked like blue waves here, there were actually only a layer of shallow water in many places, which could not carry boats at all.Therefore, an experienced boatman and helmsman is needed to lead the navigation, so as not to run aground here.

It is true that it is easy to get lost in the boundless blue water without any reference, but the many river islands distributed in this swamp, the lush reeds and aquatic plants cover almost half of the river surface, appearing chaotic, and it is also not easy to choose the correct passage.

Several boatmen stood at the bow of the boat, holding pennies several feet long in their hands to detect the current.Occasionally, overly dense aquatic plants would become entangled on the oars and stern rudder, and the boatmen did not dare to complain. They just shook off these aquatic plants vigorously, and soon their arms felt like heavy lead, and the muscles on their arms were sore and twitched. It was sweating profusely.

But even so, they didn't dare to relax a little bit, and occasionally poked their heads out to bump into the water waves stirred up by the oars and rudders, to feel a little bit of coolness.

"Slow down, get the bow!"

Suddenly, Tian Ni who was standing on the side of the boat let out a low growl and waved to the rear.After hearing the words, the guards near the bank were slightly astonished, then hastily untied the bow and handed it to Tian Ni, and then looked in the direction of his gaze.

After the boat slowed down, it was discovered that in the direction Tian Ni was looking at, a dense group of aquatic plants was spreading under the water surface.And in the messy clump of aquatic plants, there was a fat river fish nearly half the length of an arm being entangled in it.

The fish broke in somehow, the more it struggled, the tighter the grass ball wrapped around the fish, and it gradually flipped over and dragged half of the fish out of the water, exposing it to the scorching sun, it seemed like it lasted for a while , the half of the fish body exposed to the water was already dry and dull.

"Silence!"

Tian Ni licked the corners of his dry mouth, took a long and sharp feather arrow, and lightly placed it on the bowstring. Then he aimed slightly sideways, and slowly pulled the bowstring away.

Seeing this scene, the soldiers were either confused or dumbfounded for a while, but they didn't dare to disturb the lord's sudden interest, they just whispered to the boatmen to try to control the boat as smoothly as possible.

slap, slap...

There were two short sounds of the fish tail slapping the water surface, and the fish struggled suddenly after accumulating strength for a moment, and the originally slightly dead scene became alive again.

After seeing this scene, Tian Ni's eyebrows twitched suddenly, and even the bow in his hand trembled undetectably.But soon, his slightly frowned brows relaxed again, and a cruel, joking smile hung on the corner of his mouth.

Because the fish's struggle did not make it free from the shackles of the aquatic plants, but the splashed water fell on the fish and slightly moistened the half-dried fish scales, but because of this struggle, the whole ball of aquatic plants was completely wiped out. After pulling it a bit, it lifted the fish body higher. The part of the fish body exposed to the sun on the water surface reflected a little brilliant light at first, but as the water evaporated, this light halo quickly dimmed.

"I really want to die..."

Tian Ni murmured, and then concentrated his breath, adjusted the direction of the feather arrow slightly, and then let go of the string suddenly.

puff……

The arrow entered the water, hit the grass ball, and then splashed a ball of water nearly half a foot high, and the ripples on the water surface also quickly rippled.

"Ho..."

Seeing this scene, the soldiers on the boat were emotionally overwhelmed for a moment. They were about to clap their hands and applaud, but they saw the splash of water falling, ripples swaying, and then a mess of water plants floated to the surface of the water, and the broken grass stems quickly Spread out on the surface of the water, but there was no trace of the fish.

Everyone felt that an invisible hand suddenly appeared and grabbed their necks, and there was a long-drawn sound in their throats.

"Damn!"

As soon as the arrow fell to the ground, Tian Ni's face became even more ugly, as if he was about to wrestle with the fish, he quickly drew an arrow from the quiver and put it on the string, then he raised his leg and stepped out of the ship's side, half of his body leaned out of the ship, staring at the microwave. The rippling river water seemed to be trying to find and shoot the river fish that had escaped from its shackles again.

fluttering...

While Tian Ni was concentrating on looking at the water surface, a series of wild birds flapping their wings suddenly sounded in a clump of reeds a few meters away.Tian Nixun raised his head and looked up, his face suddenly glowed, he left the fish that escaped by chance behind him, and pointed his bow and arrow at the wild bird with long tail feathers and colorful colors that was startled into the air .

He remembered that King Wei gave his son a feather decoration of this style last year. Tian Ni didn't have much interest in it, but he was bitter because he didn't get it.After returning to the county, he also ordered people to search and hunt, but this kind of wild bird was too rare to find, so he didn't expect to meet it here with his own eyes.

However, although the height of the wild bird's flight was very low, its speed was extremely fast. Almost instantly, the gorgeous feather colors disappeared completely in the depths of the vast reeds.

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

Originally, this was just an insignificant episode, but the successive misses made Tian Ni's mood become more irritable, roaring angrily, and stomping the boards of the ship.

The ship accelerated steadily, and the atmosphere on the ship became even more silent. No one dared to attract attention under such circumstances, and each of them lowered their heads and chests, silent like a cicada.

Wow... "Help..."

A rather loud sound of falling into the water sounded on the other side of the boat, accompanied by a hoarse cry for help. It turned out that a boatman relaxed a little and then suddenly exerted force. His strength was exhausted and he fell into the water.

Tian Ni turned around with a bow in his hand, and when he saw the boatman struggling on the water, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he raised his head and laughed loudly. Accompanied by the wanton laughter, he raised his bow and arrow and shot it right in the middle. That boatman's throat.The body that was still struggling suddenly stopped, and then sank rapidly, and a series of bloody bubbles burst out from the center of the rippling ripples.

The arrow finally shot out. Although it was not the original target, it did not miss after all.And after shooting the arrow, Tian Ni seemed to have taken away the depression in his heart, and there was a look in his brows again. He threw the bow in his hand to the soldiers beside him, and his whole body seemed to become lighter.

After this episode, the fleet continued to move forward. After passing through most of the swamp, the fleet gradually shrank, preparing to sail into the narrowing waterway ahead.

However, at this moment, a group of birds suddenly flew up in the reeds in front of them, including the wild birds with colorful feathers that had escaped before Tian Ni's eyes.However, at this moment, the people in the fleet did not pay attention to the wild bird, but looked vigilantly at the source of the commotion.

An extremely complicated sound sounded, including the crisp sound of reeds breaking, the sound of oars and rudders beating the water surface, and the sound of heavy objects crushing water plants, and there was a boat hidden in the reeds!
"Could it be that someone secretly fished and hunted?"

Because of Tian Ni's concealment of the military situation, the rest of the fleet didn't know that the country was going to be in chaos, they just frowned and speculated.Weishui River Estuary is not an important military defense area, and occasionally villagers will hang around here for fishing and hunting.

The head of the army surnamed Zhu in the fleet has already cursed and ordered the ships to move forward. You must know that when the spoils were divided before, the Weishui River Estuary was assigned to him. The water, grass, fish, and birds here belonged to his!Now that the thief is caught on the spot, how can he hold back his anger.

"What...who?"

The dense reeds were completely pushed away, and what appeared in front of everyone was not an ordinary fishing boat, but a huge flat raft. Someone was poled in on the edge of the flat raft, and the raft was full of heavily armed soldiers. With a crossbow at the end of his bow, he faced the Jijun soldiers and ships with a stern expression.

"Enemy, enemy attack..."

The army surnamed Zhu rushed forward and was also bearing the brunt at this time. He let out a few hoarse screams, and then heard a series of strange noises. A black spot in his field of vision suddenly expanded, expanding as if a night fell, Then he fell into a boundless darkness, and at first he could still feel the piercing pain, but soon the pain receded like a tide, and the dead silence crushed all his senses.

"puff!"

Hu Run on the bamboo raft spat lightly, spat out the reed that had been chewed between his teeth and had no green taste, and raised his hand to scratch the blind eye sockets covered by the round leather, soaked in sweat and a little itchy, Then the one-eyed man looked at Wang Guang, the enemy general who was curled up behind him with a trembling face like a blade.

The enemy general Wang Guang lowered his head to avoid Hu Run's sharp and fierce gaze, then raised his head quickly, a humble and flattering smile was squeezed out of his sweaty face, then he raised his head and walked forward. As he moved forward, his stooped body gradually straightened up. When he walked to the front of the army formation and saw those stunned former comrades, his whole body seemed to be reborn, with a sense of arrogance.

"The king of Huainan has returned to Ji County, and most of the clan households in the territory belong to him. You stubborn people, abandon your weapons to avoid death. Tenni dog thief, today is your death day!"

Wang Guang beat his chest and stomped his feet, hoping to increase his momentum. As for the last sentence, it already had a little crazy vibrato.

"It's Wang Guang..."

"Huainan Army? How, how is it possible!"

Seeing this scene, Jijun soldiers suddenly burst into an uncontrollable commotion, and the space between the boats suddenly became chaotic and scattered, and countless people howled uncontrollably to vent the unbearable shock.

Tian Ni also froze there suddenly at this moment, his eyes seemed to be frozen, and his breathing stopped completely.It wasn't until the soldiers swarmed up and pulled him over to surround and protect him that he gasped heavily as if he was almost suffocating. into the hard-to-close mouth.

The turmoil in the fleet was getting bigger and bigger, and some military leaders kept ordering people to ram the ships along the way, approaching and yelling to ask what happened.

However, Tian Ni was still sluggish at this moment, unable to make any reaction at all. After a while, he suddenly drew out his saber and slashed forward with both hands. One of the soldiers standing in front of him was caught off guard. Hurt to the ground!
But Tian Ni didn't seem to realize it, his beard was beating wildly, and he growled like a maniac in the direction of Wang Guang: "You dog thief, dog thief! How dare you collude with the southern thief to seize my Ji County! I will kill you...kill your whole family! Kill all the southern thieves! Kill, kill! Anyone who dares not to fight will be killed..."

"Wang Guang has defected to the enemy? The Huainan army has captured Ji County?"

Even though the scene in front of them was very clear, after hearing Tian Ni's roar, the generals couldn't accept it for a while, and most of them became messy and short of breath.

At this time, a large number of boats and rafts came out on the other side of the meadow reeds. Because of the cover of the dense reeds and the fact that the flags and sails of those boats were not up, it was difficult to find them in advance.

Unlike the chaos of Jijun's soldiers, where even the general was almost crazy, the Huainan army waited for work in an orderly manner. First, the raft was attached to the water and galloped through the waves, directly hitting the outer ships of Jijun's fleet.

The soldiers of the Huainan Army, like wolves and tigers, climbed up the boat, cut down the shields and branches with their knives, and soon cut down all the enemies on board.And those enemies are still in shock at the moment. They boarded a boat and crossed the river to attack Lingchangjin at night.

Right now, he just got up, even before he opened his eyelids, and was groping for a weapon. The sharp sword of the Huainan soldier had already been chopped off, and his limbs and limbs were severed.Any enemy ship that the Huainan army charged up would soon be filled with blood and overflow the river!

Compared with the chaotic shouts of the enemy army, the Huainan army was very silent. Even if each of them was full of killing intent, they would just grit their teeth and kill the enemy in a muffled voice.The enemy army hadn't even been able to organize an effective counterattack, and several warships on the periphery had changed hands. They either directly crossed the hull to block the enemy's retreat, or turned their bows and rammed directly into the inner warships.

After a few hours, Ji Junbing saw the madness of the Huainan Army again.Many rafts kept crashing into Jijun boats. The huge impact force not only caused the Jijun boats to sway violently, but also the Huainan soldiers who were driving the boats and rafts were constantly knocked into the water. Dive into deep water.

Soon, many rafts were connected end to end, or stacked front to back, and a floating board was erected outside the Jijun fleet.And those Huainan soldiers who fell into the water before also surfaced again and swam closer.

There were no huge warships in Jijun's fleet, and many of them were no more than half a foot above the water. Such heights were unstoppable under the fierce impact of the Huainan Army, and they were quickly rushed onto the ship. Come, the fiercest fight has begun.

The fleet of Ji County is not small, and it can reach a distance of several miles on the water.Although there was already a fierce fight on the periphery, the Huainan army was not enough to break through the entire boat array by sailing boats to stop them.

So it is located in the central area. Although the army leaders are palpitating right now, they still have time to ask Tian Ni why Weishui encountered the Huainan army here?Why did Wang Guang surrender to the enemy?What happened to Jijun?

The current situation is extremely critical. Even though Tian Ni had a lot of prestige before, in the minds of these army leaders, this return to the county is obviously to divide the spoils, so why is it suddenly falling into a bitter battle?The huge psychological gap was enough to make them ignore the deterrence that Tian Ni had brought them before.

Tian Ni was not calm at the moment, although he still roared rationally in his heart to warn him to be calm, but in the face of the general's rebellion, the Huainan army's ambush, and Ji Jun's unpredictable worries, coupled with the quails in front of him, he was as submissive as he was. How could he calm down when the military leaders in the army suddenly showed ferocious expressions!
A lot of anxiety was mixed together, and the suppressed hostility in Tian Ni's heart suddenly burst out. He swung his knife and slashed at a military leader who boarded the ship and questioned him fiercely. War, at this moment Shen Weizhou has been killed by me! Damn it, everyone should die..."

Tian Ni broke out suddenly, and his soldiers were naturally not polite. Those soldiers either pushed out the boats that were still approaching with long punt poles, or directly drew their bows to kill the screaming soldiers with extremely fierce postures. .There is no restriction on the advance and retreat of ships, and even a few ships were directly stuck and unable to advance and retreat.

Most of life is unfortunate, but if you see your companions are a little bit more miserable than yourself, it is enough to comfort you.General Wang Guang was in such a mood right now. Standing on the large flat raft, he saw that the Jijun ship array was completely in chaos, and even several military leaders he was familiar with died directly in the chaos. Feeling lucky for himself, he clapped his hands and yelled loudly: "Tianni dog thief, who has been in trouble for Ji County for a long time, will die today! Whoever can kill the dog thief will be rewarded by Master Wang!"

Hu Run was commanding the Huainan army to shrink the siege of the enemy army through drum orders. Hearing Wang Guang's self-assertive yelling, he couldn't help but frown slightly. He just thought that he could set up an ambush here to encircle the enemy army, thanks to this surrendered general. And some other descendants led the way, so they endured a little, but let the soldiers warn the descendants not to shout again.

In the center of the boat formation, Tian Ni's personal soldiers cleared a space around his boat, and some other direct soldiers approached the boat, finally stabilizing the situation a little bit.

And Tian Ni finally restrained his madness at this moment, gradually regained his senses, looked around for a while, and soon found that the situation had not turned to the worst, and the current chaos was only because the Huainan Army suddenly appeared and beat them. caught off guard.Although the Huainan Army's offensive seemed fierce, it was not enough to sweep the audience for a while.

So he went to the stern and personally directed the boatman to say, "Turn the rudder and rush to the left..."

The voice stopped abruptly, and a huge pain suddenly came from the neck, and then heat surged from the throat, and soon flowed out of the corner of the mouth.Tenni lowered his head in disbelief, only to see a hideous and unkempt face appearing in front of his eyes, which seemed to be a boatman on the ship.

"Why did you kill my grandfather...why did you kill my grandfather? What mistakes did he make, what did he do..."

The frail boatman in ragged clothes tightly held a broken arrow in his hand. After the arrow hit Tenny's throat, it was soon soaked in blood and became slippery. When he tried to pull it out, the spear point suddenly pierced his chest. .

Then all the swords and guns came, and he was still holding the arrow shaft in his hand, and he collapsed on the same side with Tian Ni, with blood dripping from his mouth and nose, his body twitched slightly, and Tian Ni's appearance was reflected in his wide eyes.Right now, these two people are somewhat similar, even the rhythm of the twitching has a strange synchronization.
