The best hero of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 983 : Chapter 363 Burning Liu Lu

Halfway through the hour of Hai, Xia Houyuan put down his book of war and ordered his own soldiers to wake up all the soldiers. ( ) and Xun Yu glanced at each other, their eyes flashed at the same time.Success or failure depends on this battle.

Tonight, when the first day of the new moon officially begins, the sky is pitch black, and the reeds as high as a person in the distance look like a group of figures, and it is really scary to look at them abruptly.From time to time, water birds flew up from the reeds, startled and croaked.

All the soldiers have awakened and assembled under the raft.Liu Bei, Lu Bu and others did not know that Xia Houyuan's army did not live on the water, but on the shore.Around this huge Juyeze, there are a lot of fishermen, and the fishermen make a living by fishing in the water.Xia Houyuan's army stayed here, not only requisitioning some houses of the local people, but also conscripting the other party's fishing boats, so it is much more convenient than Liu Bei, Lu Bu and others needing to make rafts.At the same time, collecting fire oil is naturally much faster.

During the march, from time to time, there were times when they would run quickly in the middle of the night, so although the soldiers were in dim pajamas, they got up quickly when they were ordered, and there were not many complaints.

Xia Houyuan ordered the soldiers to bring enough fire oil, and then the light boat sailed quickly. [

Here Liu Bei and Lu Bu's army are sleeping soundly.Because the two armies were worried that the other side would hide and peep in secret, all the reeds around the camping area were cut down. At the same time, although the bamboo rafts were huge, there were only a few thousand people on the largest bamboo raft. Therefore, when resting, Connect several large bamboo rafts together to effectively prevent the army from being dispersed by the current.

This piece of water is extremely calm and peaceful, and there are no water birds disturbing the surroundings. Only the torches of some scouts are dotted, illuminating this peaceful water area with a little color.But they didn't know that although the reed was convenient for the enemy to spy on, it also lacked the best and most natural warning "scout".Waterfowls are extremely sensitive, and whenever someone approaches, they will surely fly high and cry at the same time.

It was for this reason that Chen Gong suggested cutting down all the surrounding reeds. Poor Lu Bu, Liu Bei and others thought it was just a simple defense against the enemy's prying eyes.

The night was silent, even the water flow was extremely light, slowly passing by the boat, leaving only faint water waves.

Xia Houyuan's army did not light the torches, and at the same time ordered the soldiers to be silent, but only used the oars and pennies to paddle, the sound was extremely small, but the speed was not slow.

It was only thirty miles away from Liu Bei where Lv Bu's army camped. Taking advantage of the current, the army approached Liu Bei in less than half an hour, and Lv Bu's army scouted the blockade.

Chen Gong had sent a message long ago, how many scouts in Liu Bei and Lu Bu's army, and how are they distributed?Xia Houyuan's army approached these scouts very lightly, shooting bows and arrows from a distance, instantly killing the scouts in the distance.

With the continuous approach, the water area in front is shallower, which is more suitable for long pole punting, and the number of reeds gradually increases.This place is an extremely important line of defense for the scouts, and at the same time they use the dense reeds to hide.

As soon as Xia Houyuan's army approached, he saw a black thing flying into the sky, and then several cries sounded.

Xia Houyuan was taken aback: "No, it's a water bird." At this moment, a torch not far away instantly lit up and kept drifting towards this side.It was Liu Bei, a scout in Lu Bu's army who became suspicious and came to check.

Xun Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, although there are reeds here, they are not many, and they are only used as hiding places for the opponent's scouts.There are not many waterfowl here, I'm afraid Liu Bei might not be startled, but Lu Bu's army was awakened.Seeing the torch slowly drifting towards him, Xun Yu signaled not to move, and stopped quietly.
