Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

But when the boat gradually sailed across the river, it seemed quiet and peaceful, perhaps because it was just late at night.

Gongshu Zheda stood by the rudder and looked at the moonlit night in the distance worriedly.

"You haven't slept yet?"

Li You pushed open the cabin door and happened to see Gongshu Zheda standing behind the broadside armor, stopping to look at it, so he walked up to him and asked.

Following Gongshu Zheda's eyes, Li You saw that there seemed to be sparks in the distance.

Li Youzheng wondered why there were so many bright lights in the past, but then he reacted immediately... These are not lights, but the flames of war left over after being burned, killed and looted by the rebels!

"Zeguo Jiangshan's battle plan, what is the life of the people who plan to Leqiao Su. Alas..." Li You sighed, "Even if the Central Plains are peaceful, the borders still cannot live in peace."

"I'd rather live in the smell of wine than in the world."

Gongshu Zheda replied: "If everyone is as warm-hearted as His Highness, why can't the customs be in danger and can't be stable? Why can't the people live and work in peace and contentment?"

Li You just wanted to speak, but suddenly felt a little creepy in advance!

Now that Li You is in the realm of breaking the void in half a step, his general intuition is definitely not wrong!

But he opened his eyes and looked across the strait, but could not see any heresy.

It's just that Li You is always restless, as if some force is reminding him that danger is approaching!

"No, there is a situation!" Li You turned and shouted at the soldiers on patrol.

At this moment, a sharp sound suddenly sounded in the darkness, tearing apart the peaceful night sky!

Hearing the sound of "咻", a sharp arrow suddenly shot from the shore and flew straight towards the face of Gongshu Zheda, who was standing on the side of the ship!

"Enemy attack—!"

I saw that the two sides of the strait were brightly lit by fire, and there seemed to be countless enemies hidden in the mountains and forests. Now they all show up one by one, sandwiching Li You's battleship in the middle of the river, turning the fleet into a living target! .

Chapter 1143 Show off fire attack in front of fire attack masters?

It turned out that after Li You's troops set off, the rebel spies who were ambushed in Chang'an rushed back to report the news.

Therefore, a group of rebel scouts had already been ambushed here, preparing to conduct a surprise attack on Li You's ship!

"An enemy attack?!"

The awakened soldiers on the boat climbed out of the cabin one after another. They hid behind the broadside armor while using arquebuses to fire back at the arrows projected from both sides of the strait.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The sound of gunshots resounded through the night sky, but many soldiers on Li You's ship who were still asleep in the lower deck were still unaware of what was going on above.

It wasn't until Huo Chang ran down and kicked them up from the hammock one by one, that they put on their armor vaguely and squeezed into the narrow staircase "[-]".

On the first deck, many of the soldiers had already started to fight back with firearms.

However, due to being pinched, many soldiers who were looking at the right side were injured by the bows and arrows shot from the left side.

In less than a while, although no dead soldiers appeared, some soldiers with arrow wounds of varying degrees were carried down!

All of this happened almost instantly.

Just a few seconds ago, a deadly arrow suddenly flew towards Gongshu Zheda, pointing directly at his forehead!

But just before this arrow was about to take his life easily, Li You suddenly pulled out the soft sword of Ziwei from his waist and slashed in front of Gongshu Zheda!

"Crack!"

The arrow stopped abruptly in mid-air, and was instantly cut in two by the sharp Ziwei soft sword.

Before a drop of sweat dripped from Gongshu Zheda's forehead, the tail of the arrow that was cut at both ends had already bounced to other places and disappeared into the darkness.

The arrow bounced twice and fell on the deck ground not far from Li You.

Li You rushed to Gongshu Zheda's side, held down his shoulders, and pushed him behind the broadside armor. Gongshuo Zheda shivered and curled up behind the armor, his face pale.

Li You saw the arrow that fell on the ground, twitched his nose and smelled it, and suddenly cried out in his heart.

"This arrow is poisoned! Let Gu Gu see it!"

Li You quickly grabbed Gongshu Zheda and checked whether he had been bruised by arrows.

But fortunately, the arrow was cut off by Li You before it touched him, and Gongshu Zheda was not poisoned.

"You must quickly inform the military doctor on board to prepare in advance, and you must first curb the toxicity of the injured soldiers!" Li You said angrily.

"His Royal Highness, you saved my life!"

Gongshu Zheda was about to kneel when he kowtowed, but was pulled by Li You.

"Now is not the time to do these things, hurry back to the cabin and inform the Thunderbolt gunners to reload the Thunderbolt!" Li You urged.

"Yes Yes!"

Gongshu Zheda then covered his head with his hands in a panic, and almost rolled and crawled into the cabin door.

As soon as Gongshu Zheda disappeared at the door of the cabin, the enemies in the mountains and plains once again shot countless arrows at the boat.

However, the defensive power of the modified ship's armor can be raised one step higher, and the structure is formed with a slope inward, and people can hide below enough to resist the rain of arrows.
