Chapter 41(1/2)
Carvings of basalt beasts, the completely white jade seal of the Li Dynasty hangs in the air, exuding a jade-colored brilliance, shrouding it down. The basalt beasts that are the manifestation of the strange phenomena of the navy of the Li Dynasty are no longer sluggish under the radiance.
Then he struggled with all his limbs.
There was only a crisp "click" sound, and the last golden chain wrapped around his body suddenly broke apart.
In an instant, the eight iron chains that locked the entire river could no longer hold up, shattered inch by inch, and fell into the river.
The basalt beast looked up to the sky and roared, then swayed and dissipated again.
Seeing that the chains blocking the direction of his army were broken and broken, the morale of the soldiers of Li Chao's navy was immediately boosted, and bursts of cheers broke out.
The Le Dynasty navy warship, which had been stagnant for several days, now moved forward again, heading towards the mouth of the Yong River ahead.
Li Weining stood on the deck and looked down at the depressed and unwilling soldiers on both sides of the river. He couldn't help but look proud and laughed heartily.
"Hahaha, the whole army attacks! A battle to avenge shame and revitalize the country, today!"
The soldiers of the Li Dynasty, whose morale had been boosted because of the vision of the army, and who thought they were protected by the Xuanwu beast, were now so enthusiastic that they looked like crazy. Looking at Li Weining on the deck, they all blushed and hissed.
He responded with all his strength:
"A battle to avenge shame and revitalize the country!"
"A battle to avenge shame and revitalize the country!"
The sound of excitement spread all around, causing the soldiers of the Li Dynasty on the surrounding warships to also respond.
Not long after, the entire Nanpan River was filled with such cheers.
The uplifting, almost cathartic voice was deafening, shaking the morale of the soldiers on both sides of the river, and all of them lost their fighting spirit.
Surrounded by a group of soldiers, Yang Dayan watched the Li Chao navy leave with a look of reluctance on his face.
"Hey, I still can't stop it..."
With an unwilling sigh, Yang Dayan gritted his teeth, without saying a word, turned around, flicked his cloak, and strode away.
Xu Shu behind him quickly grabbed Yang Dayan and said:
"General, don't worry, I still have things to do!"
When Yang Dayan heard this, he said anxiously:
"Now, what else is more important than blocking the Le Dynasty navy along the way?"
This is Xu Shu's demonstration of his ability this time. Otherwise, Yang Dayan, who was already anxious at this time, would not be in the mood to stop and listen to his nonsense.
Xu Shu said in a deep voice;
"General, didn't Zhuge send a message before he joined the army? The water stronghold has been established. In a short while, the Li Dynasty navy will not be able to enter the Yongjiang River!"
Yang Dayan said impatiently:
"Just two water forts can block a lot of..."
Halfway through, Yang's eyes suddenly froze, his tone softened and he said uncertainly:
"You mean, the two water forts that were just erected are the same as your eight-door golden lock array?"
Hearing this, Xu Shu nodded and chuckled:
"Naturally! As far as this unique skill of Dunjia is concerned, I am not as good as Zhuge Junjun."
Hearing this, Yang Dayan suddenly remembered the formation he encountered in the courtyard when he came to invite the two of them. It was also during this period that the abilities displayed by Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu had proven that the two of them had
ability.
At this time, Yang Dayan calmed down a little. He looked at Xu Shu and asked in a deep voice:
"You said we still have something to do, what is it?"
"Close the door and beat the dog!" Xu Shu pointed at the river in front of him and said seriously.
When Yang Dayan heard this, his brows moved slightly.
---------------
When I scouted the horses along the eye line set up along the riverside, I saw the Li Chao navy coming in force, so I quickly lit a bonfire and smoke as a warning.
Several beams of smoke billowed up into the sky, making them extremely conspicuous.
Li Weining sneered, showing no concern at all.
There is another thirty or forty miles of waterway before you can turn into the Yongjiang River. The Yongjiang River is wide, so you don't have to worry about being easily blocked by the Yun army like on the Nanpan River.
After entering the Yong River, the navy of the Li Dynasty could come from the waterway to attack Shicheng County, and attack from both sides with the Xia army. Shicheng County could not defend it for a long time.
At that time, the only connection between the Yun Kingdom and Yongzhou was cut off. The hundreds of thousands of elite frontier troops in the Yongzhou camp lost their food, grass, supplies and weapons, and they became fish and meat on the chopping board. It only took time to swallow them.
Problem!
At this time, although the Li Dynasty navy was going upstream, its speed was not slow due to the blessing of the vision of the army.
It takes only half a day to travel dozens of miles of waterway.
At this time, the sun was already setting.
It was already a bleak autumn day, and the setting sun was like blood. Coupled with the mighty and menacing Li Dynasty naval army, the murderous intent suddenly appeared on the ground, adding a chill.
Seeing that the mouth of the Yongjiang River was not far ahead, the generals accompanying him had already begun to congratulate Li Weining.
At this time, Li Weining saw that Yun Jun's "last" means of blocking had also failed, and he was naturally feeling complacent. Just as he was about to say something, the eager reports from his soldiers interrupted him.
"Your Majesty, I am reporting from the vanguard that there are Yunjun water strongholds erected at the mouth of the Yongjiang River and along both sides of the river!"
For a moment, all the generals on the deck were silent.
Even Li Weining's face turned a little ugly at this time.
The people in the water village bundled hundreds of thousands of giant bamboo poles, built a plank house on it, named it "Bamboo Dragon", and carried soldiers to attack it.
Compared with the iron rope crossing the river, the water fortress can be attacked and defended, which is more difficult. If the Yun Kingdom had taken precautions and built water fortresses along the way, it would have been impossible for the Li Dynasty navy to attack so far!
Facing this water stronghold, it is impossible for the Li Dynasty naval forces to ignore it. But if they want to capture it, they are afraid it will take a long time.
During this period of time, the Yun army can recruit civilians to build water fortresses. Not to mention repelling the Li Dynasty navy, as long as they try their best to delay the reaction of the Yun Dynasty court and mobilize the army to defend along the river, the Li Dynasty will have no choice but to be blind.
!
Thinking of this, Li Weining's eyes suddenly sharpened and he shouted:
"Send the order to the forward navy to attack the water stronghold with all their strength!"
"yes!"
Following Li Weining's order, the officers and men of Li Chao's navy quickly arranged their clothes, armor, weapons, bows, crossbows and arrows, and prepared for battle.
In the sight that ordinary people cannot see, the seal of the Li Dynasty hanging in the air is emitting a jade-white light that is faintly tinged with blood.
The Xuanwu phenomenon formed by the condensed army became even more powerful. Between the waving of its limbs, the Xuanming Qi overflowed. The water vapor evaporated and thick fog rose. It enveloped the entire Li Dynasty navy.
At this time, Zhuge Liang was already standing at the height of the water village, looking far ahead at the looming figure of the Li Dynasty navy in the thick fog that suddenly arose in front of him, but for some unknown reason, he suddenly showed a slight smile and said:
"I thought I was going to delay the night and take advantage of the deep darkness to do things. But now it seems that it has been determined for a long time!"
Zhao Yun on the side heard this and couldn't help but ask:
"What does joining the army mean?"
At this time, Zhuge Liang did not do anything, but said in a deep voice:
"Send the order to Long Feiying to set up the formation!"
When the generals on the side heard this, they immediately took orders and left quickly.
Just watch the formation flags flying and convey military sentiment.
In the water village on the left bank, looking at the mighty Li Dynasty navy coming in front, they immediately moved.
The distance was less than a few miles, and the thick fog could no longer obscure much of the sight. Only then did Sergeant Yun clearly see the number.
This mighty forward navy of the Li Dynasty was composed of two giant ships with three thousand materials, a dozen warships with one thousand materials, and an unknown number of ships with hundreds of materials.
The river navy of the Yun Kingdom, whose largest warship only had a few hundred pieces of materials, did not even have one-tenth of the strength of the forward force of the Li Dynasty navy, which seemed extremely ridiculous.
"The king has an order, attack with all your strength, and kill those who retreat and refuse to advance!"
"The king has ordered us to attack with all our strength..."
The flying flags, coupled with the shouts of the order soldiers, even reached the Yun army.
In the Yunjun water stronghold, not to be outdone, they shouted:
"Get into formation!"
The next moment, a mysterious aura suddenly appeared in the water stronghold of Long Fei Camp of the Yun Army. The light suddenly appeared, and the complicated and mysterious array talismans condensed and appeared on the water stronghold. Only the vague sound of dragon roars was heard, and suddenly,
It rang in the ears of everyone on the battlefield.
But in just a moment, it disappeared in an instant, and the mysterious meaning suddenly dissipated. The dragon's roar in his ears just now seemed to be an illusion.
At this time, the Longfei Camp Water Village looked like an ordinary water village, without any difference.
"attack!"
To be continued...
