Song Dynasty

Chapter 145 Southern Sword God

Yan Yuemeng was obviously frightened by the bloody reeds flying in the air earlier, so he only held Wu Tuo's arm tightly with his hands: "Enemy, the enemy really came here, where are they?"

"I don't know where they are. It's better to quickly row to the north bank and enter Huanggang City."

As soon as Wu Tuo's words fell, the mountain boat on the leftmost side of the triangular array stopped suddenly, and there was a creaking sound, as if the bottom of the boat was rubbing against a sharp reef.The sudden stop caused the dozen or so soldiers on the ship to fall to the deck, and then they shouted loudly in unison.

Wu Tuo's expression changed, and he shouted: "Don't mess around, Zhiniang, the enemy is coming!"

As soon as the voice fell, the water beside the boat boiled instantly.Suddenly, the water splashed, and a black figure jumped onto the boat from the water, the waist knife in his hand was as bright as lightning under the light of the fire.

"Shua Shua" a few times, someone was beheaded.

Big blood red flowers are in full bloom.

The enemy turned out to be hiding in the water.

I saw that the person who jumped onto the boat was of average build, slightly thinner, and because it was dark, he couldn't see his appearance clearly.Only a pair of green eyes are shining, like a leopard suddenly jumping out of the long grass.

"Let the arrows, let the arrows!" Someone shouted, and the water warriors raised their bows and shot towards that side regardless of the enemy or us.

How can the human body compete with the divine arm bow? In an instant, several water warriors were shot through the body by crossbow arrows.Everyone else yelled and jumped into the water in a mess.

The panther-like enemy didn't move, and stood on the bow of the boat with a small body, with a waist knife behind his back, his left hand pointed at him, and he let out a cold laugh that rubbed against metal, his teeth were frighteningly white.

Following his laughter, the river water seemed to be boiling, and under the light, balls of human blood dispersed in the water.That was Shui Yong who jumped into the river just now, there must be more enemies hiding in the water, they were all killed.

There was no one to steer the oars, and the empty boat slowly drifted eastward, with the man still standing on it.

As the boat moved away, a dense mass of black human heads appeared in the water.This situation is like a large group of tadpoles hatching in the gaps in the rice fields in March in Yangchun, which makes one's scalp tense.

Yan Yuemeng was still shouting: "General Wu, what should we do, what should we do?"

Wu Tuo was annoyed by his call, he shook his body, flicked Yan Yuemeng away, and ordered loudly: "Crossbowman, string up the string, obey my order?"

As a northerner, he is naturally afraid of water, especially on this big river.Because the sky is too dark, I don't know the enemy's combat effectiveness.However, judging by the water properties of these bastards, it is already very remarkable.

Moreover, judging from the enemy's posture, there are at least two to three hundred people, and they are all battle-tested fighters. I don't know how many of the more than 300 water warriors will be able to return to Huanggang alive tonight?
There was no time to row a boat, and all the ships, including the enemies in the water, were floating down with the Yangtze River.

Suddenly, the small sampan on the far side of the right wing moved quickly and broke away from the army formation. It must have been tampered with by the water ghosts below.

At the same time the leopard-like enemy's ship gave a sudden stop, and the two boats drew closer.

The man jumped over with a long roar.

Wu Tuo let out a groan in his heart, and was about to let the boat move again, and moved towards the small boat to meet the soldiers on board.

Suddenly, the soldiers on the boat waved their weapons and rushed towards the man at the same time: "Zhi Niang, I will fight with you!"

They have already separated from the brigade, knowing that they can no longer survive, they fight for one to earn money, and fight for two to earn one.But at this moment, the boat suddenly shook violently. It should be that the water ghost in the river was shaking the boat violently.

The river surged up the side of the ship, and the soldiers fell one after another.

Strange to say, that leopard-like enemy seemed to take root under his feet, and his body swayed from side to side on the bumpy boat, shaped like a weeping willow in the wind, with indescribable ease and ease.

"Grass your mother!" A Sizhou soldier jumped up bravely, slashing at the enemy's head with a big knife in his hand.

But at this moment, the enemy suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch Shui Yong's right wrist holding the knife, and stabbed forward swiftly with the knife in his hand, hitting his chest.

One click, two clicks, three clicks, four clicks... the river is filled with the sound of knives piercing the human body.

Then, he threw Shui Yong who had stopped breathing into the water, stuck out his scarlet tongue and licked the knife covered in human blood, his bright eyes were full of madness.

This man takes pleasure in killing.

Seeing his companion die so horribly, another Sizhou soldier, Shuiyong, rushed towards him with red eyes holding an axe.

The knife flashed twice, and his arms were cut off in an instant.

The saber changed again, pulled it sideways, and opened its eyes angrily, flicking its head into the air.Human blood soared into the sky, and then poured down like a torrential rain. In the small water area around the boat, dots of red spread out, connecting into one piece in an instant.

It's really too powerful, this leopard-like enemy is so powerful, no matter who is in his hands, he can't survive a single move-fast, fierce-yes, what Wu Tuo said just now is right, on the battlefield, if you want to win , you have to be faster and stronger than your opponent.If you lose, lie down, if you win, stand up.

There was a loud "bang" sound, and the water ghosts turned over into the boat like piranhas. In a blink of an eye, the water warriors on the small sampan were instantly swallowed up.

All of this happened so fast that the others watched this scene dumbfounded, and there was no reaction for a while.

Wu Tuo's eyes were red, tears came out, and he screamed angrily: "Who is it, who are you?"

On the small sampan, the enemy stood among the water ghosts, pointed his waist knife over, and shouted sharply: "Who are you?"

Wu Tuo: "Grandpa is Wu Tuo, the deputy commander of the Shengjie Army under the command of the Wang Junshi of the Sizhou Army."

"Big man, I, Yang Zaixing, want your head!"

"Ah, Yang...Yang Zaixing..." The two brothers Feng Changqing and Feng Changyuan froze, their voices trembled.

Wu Tuo felt that they were wrong: "Who is he?"

"Southern Sword God, a Yaozi." Feng Changyuan gasped: "Unexpectedly, I met him in Huangzhou today."

"Is he very powerful?" Wu Tuo was very dissatisfied with the fear on his brother's face, and asked.

"It's very powerful. This thief was originally a Taoist thief. I didn't expect him to come here all the way. My brother has heard of his name before. It is said that he is a descendant of the Yang family. He has outstanding sword skills. You have never lost a battle, General Wu, be careful."

Wu Tuo was furious: "He is a Yaozi, how did he become a descendant of the Yang family general, and how did he come to the south? Isn't that what bragging is? I judge whether he is the Yang family general or the Zhe family army. I killed him together today." .The crossbowmen are ready!"

The so-called Zhejia Army is the separatist force of the Fuzhou warlords at the junction of Shanshan and Shanxi.Because the place is really barren, and it is at the junction of Dangxiang and grassland nomads, the imperial court can't control them.Because of the long-term battle with the homeless national army, the Zhejia army fought bravely, and its combat effectiveness was not inferior to that of the Shaanxi Western Army.

In the early years of the founding of the Song Dynasty, the eldest daughter of the Zhe family married the old man of the Yang family, and was called the Taijun Zhe.

Also because of such a relationship, when the folks mention the two of them, they call them the generals of the Yang family and the army of the Zhe family.

It's just that after the Jin army occupied Shanxi, the Zhe family was also wiped out by the Jurchen.

"put!"

The training during this period of time made everyone in the navy develop the conditioned reflex to obey orders, and the water warriors opened their arms and bows at Yang Zaixing at the same time, and for a while, arrows rained down like rain.

This time, Wu Tuo asked for forty strong crossbows for the navy, each with two pots of arrows, forty in total.They shot at the boat at the same time, and the people on it, whether they were enemies or friends, were full of feathered arrows.The penetrating power of the divine arm bow was so strong that some water ghosts were even directly nailed to the board of the ship, and while they were still alive, they struggled violently while screaming loudly.

The corpses fell into the river one by one, splashing pieces of water.

Yang Zaixing is gone, maybe he was also shot by an arrow and sank into the river.

Seeing how sharp the navy's crossbow was, all the water ghosts in the river dived into the water at the same time and disappeared.Pieces of ripples spread out, and were washed away by the raging river water in an instant.

In the random shooting just now, at least four water ghosts were shot and killed. It was easy and freehand, and it could be regarded as revenge for the one shot just now.Yan Yuemeng's fear was gone, and he said: "General Wu is worthy of being a veteran on the battlefield, and he quickly turned the situation around. What kind of southern sword king is just a bandit name, bragging about himself."

Wu Tuo and the Feng family brothers looked solemn.

Wu Tuo shouted: "Every boat protects the lanterns, pay attention, the enemy's water ghosts may come out of the water at any time, don't mess up later, aim and shoot again. Our arrows are limited, we must insist on crossing the river and returning to the river." Go to Huanggang. Don’t be afraid, this battle is no different from normal training. What you do in daily life, you can do now.”

The soldiers on each ship were divided into two teams, one team raised their crossbows for vigilance, and the other team strenuously rowed towards them.

After a while, I saw that the distance between the boats increased, and the wedge formed was also a little loose.

The river became turbulent, but it turned out that the boat had already reached the center of the river.

"Come closer, come closer, the thieves are coming!" Wu Tuo roared loudly, knowing that this was the opportunity the enemy had been waiting for for a long time.

As soon as the words fell, the water in the river was surging, countless black heads appeared, and someone had already reached out and grabbed the side of the boat, ready to turn over.

How wide the Yangtze River is, and how urgent the current is.Not to mention getting into the water, even standing on the boat and staring down for a long time, Wu Tuo still felt dizzy.These water ghosts were able to hold their breath underwater for such a long time, and now they are standing on the water one by one, it is really shocking!
However, the crossbowman on the ship had already been waiting there, and with an order, the powerful crossbow arrows were instantly set over.

There is no skill at all in the divine arm bow, unlike archers who need more than three years of training, and have abnormal requirements for the body.Even if it is a woman and a child, as long as they can play the string, they can pull it on the battlefield after a day or two of training.When shooting at the enemy, you only need to aim, and you can easily kill an elite soldier with a light tap of the hanging knife.

"Da Da" the god arm bow sounded continuously, the river boiled, and the water ghosts struggled violently and screamed loudly.

Blood spouted in the water, bubbling incessantly.

In a blink of an eye, more than a dozen enemies died on the spot.
