Lord of the House

The sails were blowing, and Lin Bian stood on the deck, causing people to throw four cables to connect the four fast oars and the Dongyang. In the event that a fast oars boat gets entangled with an enemy ship, it can be forcibly towed out of trouble with the help of Dongyang's powerful sails. After a fierce battle in the middle of the night, the oarsmen, Xiang Yong, and horse infantry were exhausted even if they did not suffer many casualties. It was difficult to break out of the tight encirclement by paddling with human power; Open, even if the ship is fully loaded with 200,000 catties of cargo, it can turn on the water as fast as a galloping horse. At this time, the wind is strong, and the empty ship can drag the four fast oars without any effort.

The lighthouse on the top of the tail cabin also lit up for the first time at this time, like a bright moon rising, the light reflected on the polished concave bronze mirror, illuminating the water surface more than 300 paces ahead.

This kind of searchlight equipment, which can be said to be the simplest structure, has nothing special to say. When the world has long known the principle of concave mirror concentrating, the lighthouse used by Lin Tie in the corner tower of the river mouth is even larger than this, and it can project lights. To 600 paces away, to provide enough lighting for the night sailing boats, but the fishermen and boat owners in Hongzepu have never seen this kind of lighthouse. No. Zhang Fan broke the waves and charged aggressively, so naturally he panicked to avoid it.

All the water villages in Hongzepu had already suffered heavy casualties in order to capture the building ships. At this time, the building ships were almost not completely captured. There are still four or five hundred Dongyang horse infantrymen who have not suffered much damage. Besides, compared to the outside of the building boat that Qin Chengbo was on, the Dongyang ship is not worth a hard bite. The boat, except for several river boats linked together by cables to form a river barrier to intercept, did not mean to take casualties.

Pine and fir are mostly used for shipbuilding in shipyards along the Jianghuai River. Generally speaking, a thousand-stone boat that travels on inland rivers can be built with a thousand taels of silver. Sea-going ships are generally made of pine and fir, but the wood is thickened and the keel is made of good materials. Silver is enough to build a sturdy ship of a thousand stones, but there are also ships with special materials. The board, keel and reinforced sideboard of Dongyang are all made of Chuanjiang Nanmu. Pine and Chinese fir have been matured in thirty or forty years, and Chuanjiang Nanmu has been matured in a hundred years. The wood is dense and resistant to decay. In addition, the whole ship of Dongyang is divided into thirteen watertight compartments with thickened nanmu material diaphragms. In this way, the damage of one bottom tank will not cause the safety of the whole ship, and the diaphragm also strengthens the lateral structural strength of the hull, so it is not afraid of wind and waves or the ship's side impact. The actual salary of the Dongyang was a lot of 4,000 taels of official silver. Lin Bie just took advantage of the low price of Jianghuai Caoyun at this time, and purchased three ships at the same time at a low price of less than 3,000 taels of silver. Two ships have been further reinforced at the Longjiang Shipyard, and the overall structure is several times stronger than ordinary sea ships.

Lin Fu saw that there were several river boats tied together with cables to form a river barrier to intercept them in front, without any intention of stopping, and directly made the Dongyang go on a rampage. Maybe such a brutal collision will damage the hull, especially the side slats and stern stern parts are relatively fragile, but as long as the overall structure of the ship is not damaged, it is still important to break out of the siege first.

The fierce battle on the building ship has also reached a fever pitch. The fire has wrapped the entire bow of the building ship inside, and the Qin family warriors have no means to put out the fire. Still endless, Zhujia Water Village finally even put forty or fifty armor-piercing lake thieves on board to fight. The Qin family's accompanying warriors fought fiercely in the middle of the night, with heavy casualties. Those who still insisted on fighting were also exhausted.

"Lin Fu, you eat the salary of the imperial court, you can't bear to ignore the meaning of the same clan, the same clan, the country and the robe, and see that we are all in the enemy's hands!" Shen Rong watched the Dongyang ship and Zhang Fan rushed over from behind. He sent Lin Tingli, Liang Zuoren and Feilu in the cabin. The others waited and shouted in unison. He knew in his heart that the building boat would not be able to dock at this time, and whether there was a last chance of survival depended on Lin Fu, who was despised by everyone at Shanglindu last night.

It was just the right time for Shen Rong and the others to shout. Lin Fu stood on the deck and could hear it clearly. He smiled and asked Lu Dongyang next to him: "Master Lu, this ship respects you, and it is up to Lu whether to save or not. Lord, think about it."

Lu Dongyang is also only the eighth-rank county decree, one rank higher than the official Lin Fu. Hearing what Lin Fu said, there is nothing he can do. Seeing that the fight over there is extremely dangerous, it would be fine if Qin Chengbo and Shen Rong died together. , in case one or two escaped, the crime of abandoning and not being saved would be a big one, and he said bravely: "The general of the Fuguo is the most important member of the society, and Lord Shen is the honor of Dongyang, so how can you not save me? Please Lin The adults are not afraid of danger, and save them." He was worried that Lin Fu would do his best to save people, and added, "Do your best to obey the destiny..."

There were more than a dozen Dongyang officials and gentlemen on board the Dongyang that were rescued. Seeing that they had finally escaped the danger, they had to rush to the center of the battlefield. She stopped and said, "Lin Lin takes us out of the siege first to preserve our strength. It is important to regroup and return to avenge Fuguo general and Shen Shen. At this time, we must not take risks rashly... Fuguo general. , Even under Jiuquan, Lord Shen is considerate of Lord Lin's painstaking efforts."

"I think what Master Lu said is reasonable. Please all adults and village elders go back to the cabin to hide, and there may be a fierce battle in a while..." Lin Fu said, and ordered the Dongyang ship to turn southwest and use the building ship to rush.

The Dongyang, which had been fighting passively all night, suddenly turned to pick up the building ship. The big boats came to block them, and the lake thieves on the loach boats and river boats even threw their weapons over to prevent the Dongyang from approaching the building boat, but the Dongyang traveled very fast by the wind, and these obstacles did not work at all. . Some Shuizhai boats thought of intercepting them from the side and back. The two Xiangyong fast oars led by Lin Zonghai and the two Dongyangfu Mabujun fast oars were towed behind the Dongyang and carried on these offensives.

Lin Fu vacated the right side of the boat and made people stand on the deck to shout: "The sail will not come down, the two boats will meet in the blink of an eye, don't hesitate to run for your life, although Lin Fu is willing to kill himself and sacrifice his life for the sake of all the adults, but Lin Fu can't ignore the life of this boat, Lin Fu can only do this step, please don't blame everyone..." The stern of the building boat has been occupied by the lake thieves, Lin Fu did not want to fight with the lake thieves, and only dared to use the side The side is connected to the building ship, and to prevent a large number of lake thieves from jumping over, the connection time will not be too long. Lin Fu doesn't want to fall into trouble, but that's all he can do.

Qin Chengbo was panting. He had not been wearing armor for nearly 20 years. He wore thick armor that weighed 30 to 40 kilograms, and he was out of breath after fighting for a while surrounded by guards. Qin Chengbo looked at the fast approaching Dongyang. They had already been entangled by the lake thieves who rushed aboard. If he returned to the cabin at this time, the lake thieves would also rush into the cabin. In order to allow more people in the second-floor cabin People had the opportunity to jump on the Dongyang to escape. He could only grit his teeth and lead the guards to the end, biting the lake robbers at the stern of the boat. Qin Chengbo cheered up a little and said to the entourage: "I, Qin Chengbo, enjoy it. You have lived a life of glory and wealth, and there is no regret in dying here, sons, do you have any regrets?"

"There is no regret in the death of the general!" All the retinues were also exhausted. At this time, Meng Sheng's will to let the family in the cabin have a chance to escape, but a new force poured out.

Seeing the Dongyang ship getting closer, Lin Fu's young but Shen Yi's face could already be seen very clearly. Qin Chengbo regretted it too much. He really shouldn't despise this son. He assisted Gu Wuchen in Jiangning to successfully counter Wang Xueshan's performance. It has far surpassed the level of ordinary people, and it will definitely not be in the pool in the future. Qin Chengbo breathed for a while, and said in a loud voice: "Lin Siyu is a talented person, and Qin regrets not being able to recommend it to the court in time. If there are survivors today, please praise Lin Siyu for his bravery and righteousness... "

Lin Fu saw that Qin Chengbo had been entangled by the thieves, and it was difficult to get out of the predicament. Qin Chengbo said these words to reassure him and ask him to rescue more Qin family members without worrying about being held accountable afterwards.

Lin Fu bowed to Qin Chengbo and left him alone. At this time, the arrows shot at Dongyang became more and more dense, and more rockets were shot at the sails. Dongyang was also under great pressure. Fire prevention is the first priority in the water war. Lin Fu put a lot of thought into it. The sails are made of cotton fabric. At this time, there are no other better fireproof materials to replace. The burning mud glue, watering and soaking when the sail is raised, but not afraid that the sail will be ignited by the lake pirates in a short time.

The Dongyang was careful to connect with the building ship, to prevent the fire in front of the Dongyang from burning the Dongyang, and to prevent the lake thieves from jumping over. In the Feilu cabin on the second floor of the building ship, some people could not wait for the Dongyang to approach, so they tried their best to jump over. Some people jumped far and landed on the deck. There are also broken bones; there are also some people who jumped close and fell into the water through the gap. The front left side of the building boat has been covered with fire, and Lin Fu can only throw a few ropes down to see their own creation.

The lake pirates also thought of countermeasures. They no longer shot the armor-piercing and licensed soldiers on the deck of the Dongyang ship, but instead aimed at the gap between the two ships and shot arrows at the people who jumped off the ship. called falling into the water.

When Liang Zuoren jumped off the boat, he also shot an arrow in his arm and waist. Lin Tingli is the core figure of the Lin family. Without Lin Fu's instructions, when he jumped off the boat, someone in Xiangyong took the initiative to put the wooden sign out to cover him, and he jumped on the boat safely and without envy. There seemed to be someone in the lake pirates who were specifically staring at Shen Rong. When Shen Rong jumped off the boat, Lin Bing also asked someone to use a wooden sign to cover him. The angle plunged into Shen Rong's chest.

There was someone among the lake thieves whose archery skills were not under Fu Qinghe and Zhou Pu, so it shouldn't make a fuss, but the arrow shot right in front of him still made Lin Bie startled. Although Shen Rong's scheming is deeply terrifying, this person is very important. If he saves him, he will be able to carry all the responsibilities tonight. Lin Bie watched Shen Rong fall into the water and shouted at Zhou Pu. : "Catch me..." He first flew out to catch Shen Rong, and Zhou Pu and another guard Wu **** took him back to the boat in time~www.readwn.com~ It was just this moment, Lin Bie He was also hit by two arrows, one of which was shot on his back armor, but fell into the water without penetrating, and one of the arrows pierced his right arm deeply.

Shooting a sharp arrow through his arm, in such an emergency, he couldn't take care of it, so Lin Bie ordered to turn the sail immediately and continue to break out south.

"Sail down, whoever dares to sail, I will kill him!" A young man in brocade holding a dagger yelled to stop the Dongyang ship, Zhou Pu stepped forward and easily snatched the dagger from his hand. The young man came over and grabbed Lin Bing's collar, shouting and begging, "Lord Lin, my father is still fighting to the death on the boat, this boat can't be sailed, you just need to ask my father back, the Qin family will reward you with gold and silver jewelry... "

"Young Master Qin, General Fuguo fought bravely so that Young Master Qin and more Qin family members could escape from the bandits. If we return to fight again, we will fail the General Fuguo's painstaking efforts and make General Fuguo die even if he is killed in battle. Ah!" Liang Zuoren endured the pain caused by the arrow wound and dissuaded him.

Lin Fuzhen wanted someone to say this for him. He asked someone to cut off the arrow that had shot through his arm with a large scissor. He reluctantly pulled out the arrow shaft and threw it aside. He poured a lot of medicinal powder into the wound and tied a bandage to stop the bleeding. , picked up the waist knife that was thrown on the deck just now, and looked back at the building boat that was drifting away. There were only three or five people left by Qin Chengbo's **** who were still struggling. Qin Chengbo surrounded hundreds of lake thieves. If you die, you can't escape the wings. Lin Fu ignored the pleas of Qin Chengbo's son, and let the dozens of lake thieves who jumped over the boat be killed off the boat, so that the Dongyang towed four fast oar boats and quickly rushed the water village to block the boat formation. Lingbaluo broke out into the forest.

At this time, there was also a fire in the direction of Shanglinli. I don’t know what happened. Maybe the thieves from the lake separated a group of troops and attacked Shanglinli. My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
