The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

This voice made the flustered Liu Zheng fleet even more flustered.

Although it was a panic, it was actually just a panic on the outside, because after these things happened, the more than 3000 soldiers and horses hiding in the more than ten ships had not yet come out.

It's just that the more than [-] soldiers and horses in the hands of the thief Jiang Zhou who followed behind the fleet began to approach the rear, and several ships occupied one side to meet the enemy.

"Fuck, I didn't expect that something happened. Brothers, if you take Liu Zhengqushuai's money, you have to share his worries. You must block these bastards!"

Jiang Qin turned his head and shouted at the brothers behind him.

In fact, when Jiang Qin took over Liu Zheng's job at the beginning, he never thought that he would encounter people who robbed him on the way. Firstly, Liu Zheng himself had hundreds of soldiers and horses to guard him, and he In Jiang Qin's view, the number of people has exceeded 2000.

For such an escort fleet, ordinary small water thieves dare not use their brains at all. There are only a handful of people with this strength who dare to rob the ship.

But Zu Lang is Liu Zheng's man, and Jiang Zhou himself participated in the guards on Tuesday, so there are only two or three people left.

But those few people, most of Jiang Tuesday's thieves know a little bit, knowing them, they probably won't appear on this river in the near future, and they are busy dealing with Liu Yao.

But unexpectedly, Jiang Qin thought that there would be no problem with the voyage, but there was still a problem. From the perspective of the ships that appeared behind him, there were more than [-] soldiers and horses. Big disadvantage.

Coupled with the fact that there were arrows on both sides of the river to restrain him, Jiang Qin was vaguely worried about whether these men of his could be able to protect these merchant ships of Liu Zheng.

"Brother, the situation seems to be bad!"

Zhou Tai has naturally discovered the situation in these four weeks, and Zhou Tai is still very clear that the purpose of these water thieves who attacked is very clear, it is for these merchant ships of Liu Zheng, so if they insist on fighting, the thief Jiang Zhou will The hands of his subordinates may not be able to stop it.

"After taking Liu Zheng's money, it would be unreasonable to run away at this time. Even if we are here, we must block those people for Liu Zheng."

Although Jiang Tuesday's thief has not yet recognized the people who hijacked the ship, he has already made up his mind to stay here and fight against those people.

Seeing that Jiang Qin had already said that, Zhou Tai naturally didn't say anything more, but immediately took up his weapon and approached the approaching ship.

In the battle on the river, the first wave is a charge. The warships collide with each other. If they can directly sink the opponent's ship, then they have the upper hand.

If there is no collision and sinking, then the next thing is to fight between the people who are close.

Approaching this time, there is no such thing as firearms. Most of the time, they rely on bows and arrows, and these new fleets that appear behind obviously do not have many bows and arrows. There are many people among them, holding wooden boards and hooks.

After the fleets of both sides approached, they immediately threw the hooks, threw the hooks tied with ropes onto the opponent's boat, and then pulled them to link the boats of both sides together.

Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai are not cowards, they have been wandering on this river for several years, and they have long been used to various scenes, and they have no fear of this kind of fighting.

As soon as the ships on both sides approached, Jiang Qin raised his knife and cut off the ropes. While trying his best to delay the approach of these enemy ships, he ordered his men to design with bows and arrows at the place.

The opponent didn't have many arrows, but Jiang Qin and the others still had quite a few on their side. A wave of bow and arrow shooting first would be able to cause some losses to the enemy.

When there were too many hooks and it was impossible to stop them, he jumped up and took the initiative to jump on the railing connecting the two boats. One of them shook the center, preventing the enemy from coming over.

He, Jiang Qin, relied on his bravery to become famous among the brothers, so that he convinced more people and became the boss of their water thief team.

With Jiang Qin's example, Zhou Tai was not willing to lag behind at all, and also led another group of people, and took the initiative to kill the opponent's ship.

The close combat between the two sides attracted Liu Zheng's attention. Standing on the deck, Liu Zheng saw that Jiang Zhou's bandit had already started fighting with Yan Xing's men, and his impression of Jiang Zhou's bandit improved a lot.

"I didn't expect that Jiang Zhou's thief had some sense of loyalty. He didn't leave us and run away after the enemy fleet appeared."

Zu Lang stood behind Liu Zheng and heard Liu Zheng's words. Although he had never liked Jiang Zhou and the others, he also spoke to them at this time.

Chapter 317 Acting according to plan

"My lord, although we are water thieves, we still know the word loyalty, especially when we take other people's money and do things for them, we can be unambiguous at all."

"Yeah, after this matter is over, I will talk to Brother Jiang Zhou again to see if they are willing to take refuge in me. With the assistance of these two people, I think my navy formation plan may be able to improve. Get it done quickly."

Although the enemy troops had already appeared and killed Liu Zheng, at this time Liu Zheng was not worried at all, and he didn't even seem to care much.

He was not in a hurry to make a move, but planned to let Jiang and Zhou brothers fight Yan Xing's men first. The soldiers and horses he hid in the cabin were not easy to be exposed at this time.

Although the enemy had already dispatched several warships to attack the river, according to Liu Zheng's view, those troops might not be able to defeat Jiang Zhou's bandits.

Even if Jiang Zhou's thieves were defeated in the end, Yan Xing's ships might not be able to take advantage of Liu Zheng's side.

So people on both sides of the strait will still come back to the water.

If Liu Zheng now exposed his hidden soldiers and horses, the enemy troops on both sides of the strait would not dare to approach, and would eventually run away.

The battle lasted for a stick of incense, and two ships on the river were already half submerged in the water.

Among these ships, there is a boat belonging to Jiang Zhou's bandits, and there is also a boat from Yanxing's side. They collide with each other. Some ships that are in disrepair or have problems themselves cannot withstand such a collision. It is easy to go wrong, and water enters the hole, causing the ship to sink.

And the battle between Jiang Zhou thief and Yan Xing has come to an end.

The troops of both sides are actually about the same. Jiang Tui's bandit dispatched 500 people, while Jiang Yanxing's side is only in the early [-]s, so there is not much advantage in numbers.

Unable to suppress Jiang Zhou's thief's counterattack.

By the way, Liu Zheng sent the five hundred Zulang's men and horses who were originally escorting to assist, and Zulang personally led them.

There is even less difference in numbers, and Yan Xing's soldiers and horses will not be able to take advantage of it for a while.

But at this time, those people in the eyes began to ride some boats and rafts, and gradually approached the cargo ship.

Two to 3000 people, large and small boats and rafts, after all, Liu Zheng is here.

At this time, E Liuzheng was not flustered at all, but smiled a little.

"Okay, it's finally set."

Liu Zheng has been waiting for these other water thieves under Yan Xing's command to also enter the river. Only when all these water thieves have entered the river can he attack everyone.

The fight has reached this level, and it was also planned by Yan Xing's side.

Yan Xing already knew about Liu Zheng's situation.

During the return journey of Liu Zheng's fleet, Yan Xing sent people to follow him secretly, and found out the general situation of Liu Zheng's fleet. Not only did he know that there were more than [-] soldiers and horses guarding the fleet, At the same time, I also know that there are Jiang Zhou thief's men and horses. After all, the fleet detoured to Jiang Zhou's thief's lair, and the matter of inviting Jiang Tuesday's thief to guard was too big to hide.

Knowing the whole situation, it is also very clear that this fleet has a total of [-] troops stationed as guards.

In order to grab Liu Zheng's merchant ship as much as possible, Yan Xing mobilized a full 5000 of the six or seven thousand soldiers and horses in his lair.

Among them, 2000 people were arranged by him on the rivers on both sides, responsible for attracting the attention of the caravan, and using firepower to prevent Liu Zheng's team from advancing.

The remaining [-] people used boats to attack Jiang Zhou's pirates from the rear, attracting guards to stop them.

After Jiang Zhou's thief and all the soldiers and horses guarding the merchant ship went to block the rear, some of the remaining people began to gather near the merchant ship, killing the crew on board and driving the ship away from here.

This strategy of attacking east and west can greatly reduce the loss of troops, so that they can get what they want without much effort.

All the current situation is under Yan Xing's control, and the water thieves on both sides of the strait also started rushing to the merchant ships.

Some people directly approach merchant ships with small boats and bamboo rafts, and some water ghosts who have long been hidden in the water swim directly from the bottom of the water with good enough water quality. As long as they approach the ship and use climbing props, they can reach the ship smoothly .

When the pirates under Yan Xing's command control all these merchant ships, they can drive the merchant ships away from the river and escape from here.

Even if Jiang Zhou's bandits were strong, those guards might be as strong as Yan Xing's men, but since the merchant ships were gone, their guards would no longer be useful.

Of course, Yan Xing's plan was ingenious. If the merchant ship's guards were really only 2000 men, it would be really difficult to stop them, but what Liu Zheng hid in the cabin was not valuable cargo, but more than 3000 living men.

When the water thieves on both sides of Yan Xing's command approached the merchant ship, Liu Zheng had secretly ordered the 3000 water thieves hiding in the cabin to be ready to act at any time.

The sound of thud thump thump came at this time, and some water thieves continued to climb up the water below the warship.

These water thieves have been on the river all year round, and they already have proficient experience in how to climb a warship.

In an instant, a few figures sprang out from the water, and then one jumped onto the railing, holding a long knife, and began to attack the crew on Liu Zheng's deck. After seeing that there were few people on the deck, these people even more It's an excited, ferocious expression.Looking at the cargo ship in front of him is like a hungry wolf looking at a fat sheep.

"Brothers, kill all the crew on this ship, and drive this ship to our scheduled place as soon as possible!"

Their plan was strict, and they had reached this step according to the plan. Yan Xing personally brought people to take over these merchant ships.

Just when Yan Xing led the people on board the merchant ship, waiting for them did suddenly kill three thousand soldiers and horses from the cabin.

"Brothers, what we planned is finally here, kill me!"

Liu Zheng immediately yelled, and at the same time, a gong rang violently at this moment.

With the gong as the number and the sound of the gong, all the soldiers and horses hidden in the cabin came out with weapons.

Gan Ning and Su Fei each led a part of soldiers and killed them from inside. Those Yan Xingjun pirates who had just boarded the merchant ship were cut down by a group of enemy troops before they understood what happened. on the ground.

Suddenly, more intense fighting broke out on the merchant ship.

Chapter 318

Yan Xing boarded the ship himself, and happened to appear on the ship where Liu Zheng was. He held up a knife and chopped down two crew members. He even planned to head towards the helm of the cabin, but at this moment.

Yan Xing found that there were not many people on the boat just now, but suddenly hundreds of people ran out of the cabin.The most frightening thing is that these hundreds of people are all fully armed, and it looks like they are prepared.

Many of his men and horses had climbed onto the merchant ship at this time, but they were strongly counterattacked by the soldiers and horses that suddenly appeared on the merchant ship.

In just a short time, Yan Xing had already seen his side, hundreds of people were killed and injured,

"Not good! There is an ambush!"

Yan Xing shouted in panic and wanted to retreat. After knowing that this was an ambush, he panicked a little and was no longer as calm as before.

But just when Yan Xing turned around and was about to leave, Liu Zheng and a group of soldiers came to kill him from the deck.

It's not that Liu Zheng doesn't have other people to choose from, but that Yan Xing's clothes are different from others at first glance, much more gorgeous than ordinary water thieves, and his identity can be seen with the naked eye, at least he is also a water thief. Leader-level characters.

So of course Liu Zheng had to choose someone with a higher status to deal with.

"Go away!"

Liu Zheng drew out a big knife, ran towards Yan Xing's body and slashed at Yan Xing. Although he hadn't personally experienced a battle for a long time, Liu Zheng's martial arts skills did not fall behind.

After all, he was surrounded by several powerful generals, and when he was free occasionally, Liu Zheng could only ask them for advice on martial arts.Otherwise, there is nothing to do when you are on the road.

In this era, there are no mobile phones, and there are no other things to pass the time.

The big knife slashed across Yan Xing's chest, and Yan Xing also reacted at the critical moment, and immediately raised his hand to block it.

After all, Yan Xing is also a famous figure in history. Although his strength is not very outstanding, he is somewhat capable, and he was not beheaded by Liu Zheng with a single blow.

His weapon blocked Liu Zheng's first blow, and then he immediately asked the soldiers and horses around him to come to support him. He himself didn't want to fight Liu Zheng here at all.I also want to continue to break away from the battle and leave from here.

However, Liu Zheng didn't give him this chance, but raised his sword and slashed at his back again. Yan Xing was a little surprised by the continuous attack. He drew out his big sword and blocked it with his backhand. , but still a bit slow.

Liu Zheng's weapon aimed at his arm, slashed at it, and instantly removed his arm holding the knife.

With a flash of knife light, a ray of blood fell, and Yan Xing screamed, but there was no more sound at all.

After Liu Zheng saw that his attack worked, he was even more proud. He continued to chase, hacked down a few water thieves, and finally killed Yan Xing who continued to escape. Before Yan Xing jumped off the deck, he put the big knife On Yan Xing's neck.

At this moment, Yan Xing's mind was filled with the pain from his arm, and there was no trace of fear on his grim face at this moment, but Liu Zheng's big knife, the sharpness of the blade's blade falling on his neck, was still enough to make him cry. Yan Xing didn't dare to act rashly.

"Looking at your appearance, you should be a leader. Who are you?"

Liu Zheng still didn't know at this time that the person in front of him was Yan Xing whom he wanted to catch.

"Humph!"

Yan Xing endured the pain and did not answer Liu Zheng's words.

But Liu Zheng was not in a hurry, the knife continued to pass a few inches towards Yan Xing's body, leaving a bloodstain on Yan Xing's neck immediately, Yan Xing panicked and revealed his identity .

"I said, I said, don't kill me! My name is Yan Xing, and I'm a water thief on this river!"

At this time, Yan Xing actually didn't know that Liu Zheng was waiting here for him.

He thought that the other party just happened to be on the boat.

"Yan Xing? You are Yan Xing!"

Liu Zheng originally thought that this person was just a small leader of the gang of water thieves, but unexpectedly, he caught the big fish as soon as he came.

"Are these water thieves at your disposal?"

Liu Zheng asked a question, Yan Xing nodded.

"Very good, let these water thieves stop!"

Liu Zheng spoke to Yan Xing very easily.

Yan Xing looked at the water pirates who had already fought fiercely with Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses. Although he was unwilling, he could only act according to what Liu Zheng said.

"Stop it, stop it all!"

Yan Xing yelled a few words towards the river.

With Yan Xing's cry, this time the battle was already one-sided, so naturally there was not much controversy.

The first to lay down their weapons on Liu Zheng's side were the first wave of people who had not been killed by Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses. After seeing that their boss Yan Xing was subdued, they also Just like Yan Xing, in order to survive, he chose to put down his weapon and surrender.

With the surrender of Yan Xing and others, the battle on the river did not last too long.
