Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 430 Destroying Wu

When Li Ren went to Xuzhou again, Wang Zheng had already made the decision to divide his troops into two routes. Even the route led by Wu Sheng as the commander had already set off for Pengcheng. There were nearly ten thousand people, and he was about to take a detour through Yuzhou and take the overland route. And into Lujiang.

Of course, it would be better after getting Yuan Shu's consent. Wang Zheng immediately asked Li Ren to catch up, and then cooperated with Wu Sheng and Guo Jia to follow the trend and spread the call to Pei Guo.

At the same time, Wang Zheng also led another group of troops, with Huang Zhong from Jingzhou as the deputy general. Following an order, the warship broke through the night and started the journey.

This day was the [-]th day of May in the first year of Jian'an. On this night, countless warriors of the heavenly army were divided into dozens of ships of different sizes that had just sailed out of the Haizhou dock, and they cut through the waves and headed south. And go.

On one of the largest building ships, the brand-new three big characters of "Mie Wu Hao" that have just been nailed are shining in the moonlight.

Perhaps, this is the moment when the track of the great wheel of history is completely distorted?

At this moment of silence in the middle of the night, Wang Zheng standing on the deck feels like he is in a different world, even though there are countless soldiers guarding him not far behind him, especially when he thinks that the target of beheading this time is When it was Sun Ceshi, the future founder of Soochow Wu, he felt even more heroic and courageous, and his blood boiled, which made him burn all over.

so hot!
He took a long breath, and carefully felt this strange emotion that he hadn't seen for a long time. When was the last time he felt both excited and stimulated?

Shouldn't they be planning an incident in the Zhao County barracks?

A gust of river wind blew up from the bow of the boat, blowing Wang Zheng's battle robe. The evening wind in May was obviously very gentle, without any chill. He felt a little tingle.

The mountains and rivers are so delicate that countless heroes bow down.
Although in the dark night, even with his extraordinary physique, he could only see the general outline of the scenery on both sides of the strait, but Wang Zheng couldn't help but think of these two lines of poems written by the great man. Restoring picturesque beauty?

Or
How many large heads of those heroes in troubled times must be cut off, so that the world can enjoy peace?

Thinking of this, his eyes flickered sharply, staring at the front for a long time without making a sound.

You can only hear the gurgling water under your feet, the light waves are clustered, and the snake-like fleet is sailing south.

From Xiapi to Jiujiang, you have to pass through the Middle Canal and the Huaihe River at the same time. You need to change the river several times in the middle, and you can only reach Hefei in the end, and then turn back to Linhu by land. The time of about seven days is actually faster than going by land.

Of course, the more important point for Wang Zheng to choose the main force to take the water route this time is to take advantage of the opportunity of Yangzhou's big opening, and let his own water army go there in advance.

The flowing water rubbed against the bottom of the boat, and the sound almost carried a natural and smooth beauty.

Because it was an overnight departure, Wang Zheng had already ordered the oarsmen on the boat to rest in shifts. This time, he and the Tianzhu Camp naturally sat in the center, and the team of Lieutenant General Huang Zhong was responsible for opening the way. They are the main force elite, but the total number is only more than [-] people. Since the Xuzhou navy is newly built, there are very few veterans.

If you look down from the sky, you can see that even among several large ships, the "Mie Wu" is still extremely huge, like a high mountain rising abruptly from the water, which can be seen clearly at a glance.

Glancing at the huge boat on the right, Huang Zhong took off his helmet and lowered his head to look at the river. The moonlight shone faintly on the river, as if thousands of silver threads had been pulled out, beating non-stop. He couldn't help but stroked his hair. A wave of inexplicable melancholy.

On the edge of Jiujiang is Jiangxia in Jingzhou, right?
"General, why don't you go to rest?"

The person who spoke was a soldier named Guo Lu. Huang Zhong was alone when he came to Xuzhou that day. These people were assigned to Huang Zhong's trilogy when he attacked Beihai. Convinced of his people, Zang Ba later made a favor, assigning more than 100 of them to Huang Zhong as his own soldiers.

Huang Zhong put the helmet on his head, turned his head and smiled and said, "The battle is imminent, so I can't sleep, and you, why don't you go to sleep?"

"This boat is swaying, how can I sleep." Hearing this, Guo Lu's face collapsed, and he complained, "This feeling of not being able to keep your feet on the ground is really uncomfortable! Don't you think so, the general? "

"Haha."

Hearing this, Huang Zhong couldn't help laughing, Guo Lu actually asked him if this Jingzhou native was flustered on the boat, it was really interesting, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Why, you, Guo Daudao, didn't back down even with spears, arrows, arrows and rain, why did you get on the boat Do you feel scared instead?"

Although Guo Lu has not entered the system, he is extremely brave. When he attacked Pingshou last time, he was also present among the people who followed Huang Zhong to the top of the city first. Therefore, he was like a crazy tiger every time he fought, and was named "Bold" by his colleagues in the army. nickname.

"That's what the general said." Guo Lu said with a wry smile, "I'm also afraid on the battlefield. Anyone who says I'm not afraid of death is lying, but when I joined the army on the first day, an old soldier from my hometown said that since people If you join the army, you can only go forward with all your might, and die. I'm afraid it's useless. Besides, General Tiangong has never treated rough people like us kindly. If he dies in battle, he will reward his family with money, food and land. It's not bad either."

"But if you drown in the river, don't tell me you're useless, and you might have nothing. Wouldn't that mean you died in vain? It's a big loss?"

"There is some truth to what you said." Huang Zhong was silent for a while, and then he said softly: "However, these warships were originally made by skilled craftsmen, and they have been checked and tested later. What's the problem, let alone this inland river with no waves?"

"You don't need to worry about that."

"That's good." Guo Lu nodded, looked around immediately, walked up to Huang Zhong quietly, and said softly: "General, I heard that we will travel by water this time, which will be faster than General Wu who set off earlier. Arrive at Linhu early, right?"

"Yes." Huang Zhong nodded: "General Wu and the others set off a few days earlier than us, but they have to go to Yuzhou first and then enter Yangzhou by detour, which should take more time than us."

Having said that, he looked sideways at Guo Lu.Surprised: "Why do you ask this?"

"Hey." Guo Lu rubbed his head and said with a smile: "That's the best, General, then no one will rob us this time. If they didn't attack Pingshou last time, there must be internal support." That city gate should be ours for being the first to ascend!"

Hearing this, Huang Zhong couldn't help frowning: "Before the battle, the victory or defeat has not yet been decided, are you thinking of taking credit? You think our enemies are all paper?"

"Then Sun Ce is the defeated general under General Tiangong, not to mention the soldiers and horses in his hands are also Yangzhou Army." Guo Lu looked at Huang Zhong and explained: "The general hasn't joined our army yet, but I don't know, those Yangzhou Army soldiers Combat strength, hey, it's just like those officers and soldiers in Beihai, so I don't need to fight this battle, I know I will win!"

"What do you know!"

Huang Zhong snorted softly: "The general is the soul of the army. If the same army leads the army with different orders, it can be said to be two completely different armies!"

"The little overlord Sun Ce's name, I heard about it when I was in Jingzhou, how can the Yangzhou army under his command be the same as the Yangzhou army you have seen in Xuzhou?"

"What's more, Linhu and Xiang'an, where this battle is located, are adjacent to the Yangtze River. The key to victory or defeat is likely to be a water battle. However, my new Xuzhou navy is at a disadvantage regardless of experience and combat power. Even if we try our best, we are not sure of victory , if you are still so arrogant and underestimate the enemy, there is no chance of winning!"

"You don't even think about it. If Sun Ce is really easy to deal with, why did the lord go out in person?" The more he said, the more serious his expression became: "You must know that the lord never went there in person when facing the war of destroying the country in Beihai."

Although Guo Lu still didn't believe it, seeing Huang Zhong's expression changed, he naturally didn't dare to contradict him again, and kept saying yes again and again.

This child is hard to become a master
Seeing that Guo Lu was obviously dissatisfied, Huang Zhong shook his head slightly. If he had only the courage of a man, then Guo Lu would probably be just a pawn for the rest of his life. Just as he was about to say a few more words, a voice came from the side of the river.

"Has General Huang Zhong of the Five Divisions of the Heavenly Army gone to bed?"

The voice was very unfamiliar, Huang Zhong leaned out to the side of the boat, and said loudly: "Huang Zhong is here. May I ask who is it?"

In the darkness, someone shouted loudly: "Lv De, a school lieutenant of the First Division of the Xiatian Army, has ordered General Huang to go to the army to discuss matters."

Part of the Army?
Lude?

The former has made Huang Zhong's expression tremble. You must know that all the officers and soldiers in the First Heavenly Army are from Qi County in Qingzhou. camp.

As for the latter, it is even worse. Although Huang Zhong has never met the other party, he has heard of this name a long time ago. He knows that this is the earliest minister of the dragon, and it can even be traced back to when Wang Zheng was a senior in the Qingzhou Army. It's time.

Therefore, even though the other party's nominal official position is only a school lieutenant, Huang Zhong didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately responded: "Okay, please come over to the school lieutenant Lu, and the general will go right away."

Not long after, a small boat slowly leaned against the side of the tall boat, and immediately saw a vigorous figure jumping on board in the darkness, this scene fell in Huang Zhong's eyes, and he immediately applauded.

This is not deliberate flattery. Huang Zhong's ship is a medium-sized warship with a crew of nearly 200 people. In contrast, Lu De's ship is a small boat, which shows that the opponent's jump is as fast as boarding. On the deck several feet high, the skill can be described as very good.

And Lu De's appearance once again made Huang Zhong feel emotional, and even became more convinced that Wang Zheng is the real son of heaven.

Regardless of Xu Fang, Wu Sheng, or even Lu De today, in the eyes of Huang Zhong, other people who know the goods, other talents are rare in terms of skill alone, but these people gathered together when Wang Zheng was a mere chief. by my side
This kind of situation made Huang Zhong and even everyone who heard about it, involuntarily think of another person.

When he was the head of a pavilion, there were prime minister Xiao He, generals Fan Kuai, Cao Can, Lu Ze and others who accompanied him to steal chickens and dogs in the streets and alleys.

Because he is the true dragon emperor who belongs to the fate, so when he is lurking in the grass, there will be star ministers gathered in it!

And when Lu De came to meet him, Huang Zhong was more aware that he was at a loss, because Lu De was clearly the same age as Wang Zheng, and also young. He looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, but the calm and confident expression between his brows was not so obvious. I don't know how far away Guo Lu who was beside me.

Lu De bowed his hands slightly to Huang Zhongxian, and then handed over the general's order with a smile: "General Huang, please come with me."

After speaking, he jumped off the boat again, and just turned around to wave to Huang Zhong, but found that there was another person behind him, it was Huang Zhong, and he was shocked.

"You, General Huang."

He couldn't believe it, because when he jumped off the boat just now, the boat was shaking slightly, but when Huang Zhong jumped off the boat, the boat didn't move. What's more, this Huang Hansheng was obviously taller and heavier than him what
No wonder the general valued this person so much, he was promoted again and again soon after joining the army.

Lu De admired him in his heart, and couldn't help grinning, but he bowed his hands again more sincerely: "Before the last general, I heard that General Huang won the three armies bravely, and his martial arts are amazing. When I saw him today, his skills are really extraordinary."

When Lu De said this, Huang Zhong felt a little embarrassed.

In fact, when he jumped down just now, he didn't mean to show off his skills on purpose, but when Lu De said this, it seemed that he was showing his skills on purpose, trying to overwhelm him. After thinking about it, he explained:

"Lieutenant Lu made fun of it. I'm from Jingzhou. I just have some experience after wading a lot of water. On the contrary, Captain Lu is from the same town as a general. He should have fewer boats and more horses in his life, but he can be so flexible on the deck. It’s really admirable to walk on the ground.”

"Even when it comes to skill, I'm afraid I'm ashamed of myself when I'm your age."

These words are of course a modest courtesy.

Huang Zhong is past his prime now, he is indeed more sophisticated in terms of martial arts alone, but when it comes to strength and even physical functions, he is no longer as good as when he was at his true peak.

Therefore, in terms of combat power, if he is nearly fifty this year, if he fights alone with Lu De and other fourth-tier soldiers, he will need at least a dozen moves to decide the winner, but if it is replaced by Huang Hansheng, who is also in his early twenties, he will not be able to win. Up to three punches and two kicks are enough!
Hearing what Huang Zhong said, Lu De just smiled, and said to the soldiers rowing: "Let's set sail, and send General Huang aboard the Mie Wu."

The boat paddled close to the surface of the water. The two soldiers probably came from the navy. The boat rowed extremely skillfully, fast and steady, and passed through the gaps of the battleships without even touching them.Arriving at the side of the "Mie Wu" boat, the boat stopped, Lu De said: "General Huang, please get on board."

The "Mie Wu" is Wang Zheng's ship, and its height is even far higher than other large ships, not to mention the medium-sized warship before Huang Zhong. They lowered the gangway with a sound, and the two climbed up with the gangway. As soon as they got on the deck, they saw Guo Jia in front of them greeted him with a smile: "You two are here too, let's go in together."

Not long after they entered the cabin, the soldiers saluted and said, "Please take a seat, the general will be here soon."

The cockpit is very large, and the most conspicuous thing is the Victory Ten Thousand Miles Fujian placed on the middle of the sword stand beside the wall. Compared with the faint light from the lamps around, even if it is hidden in the sheath, it still faintly rippling a blue rainbow When the light shines brightly.

Even when Huang Zhong and the others looked over, they only touched their eyes slightly, and it was obvious that the divine sword was lying quietly, but it gave people the illusion that there was a sharp sword aura forcing people to come.

After the other generals above Du Bo arrived one after another, after a while, there was a burst of footsteps with a strange rhythm from far to near.

Everyone looked up one after another, and it was Wang Zheng who had arrived.
