Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 154

Chapter 154

When these fifty people first accepted the task ordered by Cui Yuezhi, they never thought about coming back alive. Hearing what He Yan said at the moment, he was stunned for a while.

After a long while, someone asked: “Is this… feasible?”

“I will attract the attention of Utuo people in the front,” He Yan said: “However, your boats also need to be arranged according to my arrangements.” She has not actually done the formation on the water, but she does not care about it at the moment. many. However, He Yan looked at the long sky in the distance. At the end of the sky, a ray of light appeared, and the sky was about to dawn. Is there any wind today?

Will God be on their side again?

But no matter what, fighting is their destiny.

“Pick up the knife in your hand and follow me.” She said.

…

The sky finally broke, and the last gleam of darkness dissipated. From the front of the canal, a red sun rose. With clouds and mist, golden light spread all over the river, and the city of Jiyang was gathered in a brilliant glow.

The soldiers on the tower blew their horns, and the Jiyang army was ready to go on the bank, and the ships docked like dense black iron.

But seeing a little dark color gradually appeared in the distance, slowly, the dark color became larger and larger, first a flat line, and then the line became wider and longer, until the large area of the canal was covered, everyone here I can see clearly that they are all Uto boats.

The Uto boats are extremely tall, with Uto soldiers standing on the bow, all wearing leather robe and armor, and a small round hat made of black lambskin on their heads. The hat is adorned with two red ribbons. Each of their lives was tall and strong, and before they got close, they laughed and frightened the Jiyang army.

“Captain,” the voice of a deputy behind him trembled slightly: “Their men and horses…”

“At least 150,000.” Xiao Jue said.

Twenty thousand to one hundred and fifty thousand, this is no longer a victory for less, the disparity is huge and scary, and it makes people feel desperate.

“Follow me on the boat.” Xiao Jue took the lead to step into the boat on the shore.

Compared with the boats of the Uto people, the ships of the Jiyang City Army were too short and too small. The Uto soldiers came up from the north of the canal, and the journey was far away. The boats were big and strong. I don’t know what they used. Wood should be very precious. In recent years, Wei was busy quelling the Xiqiang and Nanban rebellions, and gave the Utuo people an opportunity. Unconsciously, the wealth of Utuo country should not be underestimated. Its treasury is not necessarily worse than the big Wei treasury.

The Jiyang City Army followed Xiao Jue onto the ship, and the ship headed in the direction of the Utuo Army.

The leader who brought troops to Jiyang this time was Utuo General Makka. Macha was born not tall, and even looks too short compared to the soldiers around him. He is not too old, and he has just been established now, but he is already famous in the Utopian country because of his extreme military skills. Unauthorized attack. And because he was the cousin of the leader of the Utuo nation, the leader of the nation put the 150,000 army into his hands with confidence this time, asking him to start the first battle in the Great Wei.

For Jiyang, Maka is bound to win.

The spies lurking in the city of Jiyang have already inquired clearly about the current situation of Jiyang city. A domain of a vassal does not have many soldiers and horses. Over the years, it has been too peaceful and happy. Occupying such a city is actually an easy task. The only thing that is difficult is Mu Hongjin, the prince of Jiyang. This woman is very cunning, but she is just a woman. But these days, there seem to be more people in Jiyang City. I heard that a swordsman in white clothes is chasing and killing the secret agent of Utuo Country. I don’t know if the wind has leaked. The civilians in Jiyang City have begun to evacuate. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, they Just decided to do it in advance.

“Is it Cui Yuezhi who led the troops this time?” Makar said, “I heard that he was also a titan when he was young, but now he is also old, I don’t know how to use the sword?”

The confidants around laughed and said, “Not as good as the general’s knife!”

Marcha’s hand stroked the scabbard of the long sword on his waist, “I really want to die by my sword, it’s his glory!”

The laughter floated to the surface of the river and fell far to the Jiyang city army.

Xiao Jue stood at the bow of the ship, watching more and more Utopian ships appear in the distance. After a while, he bends his lips: “Idiot.”

“What?” The deputy soldier was puzzled.

“All the Utopian ships are connected end to end. It seems that they will not die fast enough.” Xiao Jue got up and walked in, grabbing the cloak in Chiwu’s hand and tying it, and said: “Try to stay on the water for a while, someone rushes. If you want to die, why stop it.”

…

At the same time, He Yan also boarded the boat filled with anointing oil.

The plaster and dry firewood of the ship were covered with thick linen cloth, and it looked like an ordinary ship of the Jiyang City Army, with a military flag on top. Fifty people are divided into ten groups, and five people are in groups.

He Yan and Mu Yi were in the same boat. She said to other people: “You follow me far away, don’t come close.” She took out a piece of paper from her arms, picked up a charcoal pencil on the ground and drew a picture, “Look at this.”

There are a few boats painted on the picture, and the one in the middle was circled by He Yan: “I use this boat to attract the attention of the Utuo people. The boats of the rest of you are arranged according to the orientation I drew. Wait for time to listen. I instructed that when I send a signal, I must burn the boat and dive into the water.”

“Can you do it? Girl He,” one person was a little worried, “It’s better to replace us.”

As a bait for Utopians in the past, it was too dangerous, and it would be fatal if you were not careful. Although no one wants to die, they can’t watch a girl take the lead and go to a dangerous situation alone.

“Don’t worry, I have my own arrangements.” He Yan tightened the whip around his waist and walked towards the ship first, “The governor has already boarded the ship, let’s set off!”

The ships met on the canal in front of the city gate.

The Jiyang City Army looked insignificant as an ant under the background of countless Utopian ships. However, the young man standing at the forefront of the ship’s bow was dressed in black armor, and his posture was as straight as a sword. The morning glow of the morning fell on him, giving birth to thousands of brilliance, dignified and unobtrusive.

This is an unfamiliar man, Macha was taken aback for a moment, and he hesitantly asked the people around him: “This is not Cui Yuezhi, who is this person?”

Cui Yuezhi is a fat man, not a handsome man. But Cui Yuezhi is not there, where did this person emerge from? Is it a rookie in Jiyang city in recent years? But in the secret letter sent back by Agent Uto, this person was never mentioned. Since he is not an outstanding person, how could Mu Hongjin hand over the few city troops to him?

“I haven’t seen this person.” Hesitantly said, “Maybe Cui Yuezhi is dead, there is no one in Jiyang city, and Mu Hongjin randomly finds someone to top him. This person is so young that he is not a general at first sight. Opponent!”

Macha didn’t speak, and both were generals. He naturally had intuition whether the other party embroidered pillows or had real talents. This person looked unusual. He was puzzled, but he didn’t have time to think about it. He slowly pulled out the long knife around his waist, pointed it forward, and shouted, “Warriors, follow me!”

For a time, the screams of fighting shook the sky.

Utopians also know that once they are ashore, there is nothing to stop them. Jiyang City is as fragile as paper, and 20,000 people are not enough for them to chop and play. In order to protect civilians, Jiyang City Army can only fight more on the water.

Fighting on the water is nothing, their ship is big and strong, and killing people on the ship is only slightly shaken.

The encounter between a big ship and a small boat is like a big fish and a small fish, cruel and fierce. The big ship almost smashed the boat, but the boat was flexible in the end and knew the reef hidden in the waterway, so it cleverly avoided it. The two armies fought on the ship.

Capture the thief first, capture the king first, Macha’s target is the young man wearing black armor and holding a sword. He stood at the bow of the two boats close to each other, looking at the people on the opposite bow.

“Captain!” someone shouted beside him.

Marcha narrowed his eyes: “The Governor? Who is your Excellency?”

“Xiao Huaijin.”

Marcha felt that the name was familiar, but he was very arrogant in his daily life. The name of someone else was in his ears, but it was just a name, and he forgot after hearing it. And no one thought that Xiao Huaijin would appear in this place, saying for a while: “I have never heard of it!”

On the contrary, a subordinate next to him said uncertainly: “Xiao Huaijin, but General Feng Yun of Wei?”

General Feng Yun?

Macha was startled and looked at the person in front of him. As long as General Fengyun is mentioned, the commander of the right army, even if he always has a higher eye than the top, he does not put these soldiers in Dawei in his eyes, and he knows who the opponent is. Xiao Huaijin has never lost a battle, and he is brave and tough. Even if he has never fought, he is enough to deter Utopians.

“Are you General Wei Fengyun?” he said.

Xiao Jue looked at him calmly, and said coldly: “Exactly.”

Makar slammed his sword in front of her eyes, and her relaxed expression was suddenly put away.

Although I don’t know if it is true, but from the mouth of the young man in front of him, Macha believed 90%! This person is already very imposing, and if it is not really such a person, how can Mu Hongjin be willing to hand over the Jiyang City Army to him and let Xiao Huaijin take the command? Even the confidant Cui Yuezhi was useless.

This was not mentioned in the letter sent back by the spies Uto!

Macha was anxious and frustrated, and in the midst of anxiety, he faintly wanted to try. Xiao Huaijin is indeed not easy, but he only has 20,000 people.

No matter how you look at it between 20,000 people and 150,000 people, he doesn’t seem to be the one who wants to win. What about brave generals? Just rely on these few shrimp soldiers and crabs? These little poor boats?

If he led the Utuo to defeat Xiao Huaijin, he would be the one who defeated General Wei Fengyun. In Utuo, eternal life will be bathed in glory in the future.

For a moment, Macha was passionate and roared: “Warriors, kill them all! Occupy their cities, take away their wealth, and enjoy their women! Kill!”

“Kill! Kill! Kill!”

The terrifying shouts of killing sounded and spread all over the canal and river. The Utuo were already cunning and cruel, and countless murderous. At this moment, they were so excited by Macha’s words that they rushed towards them one after another.

Fight hand in hand and fight in blood.

The shouting of killing reached He Yan’s ears. He Yan looked into the distance. On the river, the two armies were standing together.

Mu Yi asked: “The Governor Xiao has already started, we are going to get close to them now.”

He Yan shook his head and looked towards the sky.

At this moment, the sky is clear, cloudless, and there is no wind. Her heart gradually sank, and the people at Si Tiantai said that there may be no wind today, or there may be wind, but even if there is wind, it is not this time. It’s just…Is there really wind in such a celestial phenomenon?

Will God really stand on the side of Jiyang City?

She looked at the Uto warship in the distance. The Uto warship was huge and heavy, and it was especially famous above the canal. She looked at it, suddenly startled, and after a moment, a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

Mu Yi said: “What’s the matter? Girl He, what are you laughing at?”

“I laugh at Uto people who are stupid and don’t know it.” She said: “Look at those bows and sterns, they are all connected together.”

Utuo is not a water town like Jiyang, and the soldiers are not good at water. Therefore, all the big ships are connected together end to end with iron chains. The Uto people probably think that this move can save a lot of effort, and that one of the boats will not be able to keep up with the team. They look at it at a glance, such as the fleet.

When maritime merchants sell goods, such end-to-end connection is often used, but it is a bit cumbersome to use it here. Especially today, they still want to use fire attack.

Mu Yi’s eyes lit up: “Just set a fire and burn one of their boats.” But soon, he became sad again: “Their big boats are strung together. When the boat enters, it is like a sheep entering the mouth of a tiger, I’m afraid it hasn’t Burn the ship and be surrounded by Uto people.”

“Nothing.” He Yan greeted the others on the boat and said, “You just stay in the place shown in my picture. I will bring a boat and lead them over.”

“Bring it over?” Mu Yi said: “How to lead it over?”

Utuo still can’t run after a boat. It was possible before, but now so many boats are strung together, I’m afraid they will keep staring at Xiao Jue’s Jiyang army.

“I have my own way.” He Yan said.

As soon as the voice fell, a man’s voice came over, “Ahe.”

He Yan turned his head and saw Chu Zhao, startled slightly.

“You asked Cui Jiao to go to the palace to pick up the clothes worn by Her Royal Highness. It is not safe outside. I will tell Cui Jiao to return to Cui Mansion first and bring it to you.” Chu Zhao smiled and said, “Fortunately, I caught up.”

“Why is Brother Chu still in Jiyang City?” He Yan asked, “It’s not safe here. You should leave with the evacuated people.”

This person doesn’t even have the power to protect himself. If… If the Utuo enters the city, he will probably be ill-fated.

“His Royal Highness stayed in the palace and never left. How can I give up my comrades. Jiyang is also the land of Wei, and Ahe can protect the people of Jiyang. Although I am not as good as Ahe, I will not escape alone, yes. Advance and retreat with friends.”

“But you don’t have martial arts,” He Yan thought for a while, “Fine, you wait.”

She jumped off the boat and walked to a tent stationed on the shore. She did not get in for a while, and then jumped out again, holding a mass of clothing-like things in her hand and stuffing it into Chu Zhao’s hand.

“I bought this at Embroidery Workshop in Jiyang before. The material is shark gauze. I heard the guy selling clothes say that knives and guns are impenetrable. Although I don’t know if it is true, you can wear it on your body. , If there is a case, it can resist one or two.” He Yan sighed in her heart. She originally put the clothes on the armor, thinking that it is better than nothing. If it is really a treasure, she should be wearing two armors.

But at this moment, seeing Chu Zhaowen standing weakly here, a gust of wind could blow him down, and I felt that it would be better to give him the clothes. Although this person didn’t know whether he was an enemy or not a friend, he told Cui Jiao to return to Cui Mansion first, and he was considered loyal because he didn’t leave alone.

Chu Zhao was taken aback, and was about to speak, when he saw that the girl had turned around and followed the crowd on the boat. Her figure looked very handsome, and she was quickly overwhelmed by the people around her.

The ship gradually sailed away from the shore and headed towards the center of the river where the killing was the strongest.

The boat swayed like moths against the fire.

Chu Zhao lowered his head and looked into his hands. The clothes in his hands seemed to have just been taken off from the woman, with residual warmth. It was really informal, but… he slowly lifted the clothes, and the skirt was long. A dress worn by a woman.

He was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and burst into laughter.

…

The people in the city hid themselves in their houses, closing the doors and windows tightly, the young were held in their arms by the old, staring at the door of the house, as if staring at all hope.

Time gradually passed by.

There is no one on the street. The bustling city of Jiyang on weekdays is as quiet as a dead city today. In the palace, Mu Hongjin sat in the hall and looked out the door.

The windows are wide open, the willow branches are as gentle as before, the sky is clear, and there is no wind today.

She lowered her eyes, and gradually pinched her fingertips into the soft center of the high seat.

There is no wind today.

…

By the mouth of the gourd, the soldiers hiding in the dark are like stones, silent and quiet. The archer lay in the dark, waiting for the Uto to launch an ambush as soon as they landed.

Standing behind the tree, Cui Yuezhi’s face always wore a gentle smile, which is surprisingly heavy today. There is no need to fight the 150,000 Utopians. Once they enter the city, there is no way for the remaining young and old in the city to survive. If they hurry faster, the people who are still on the road will also face a disaster.

He brought this part of the Jiyang city army here, in order to prevent them from going ashore into the city and becoming the last line of defense in front of the city gate. However, if Xiao Jue could not eliminate the main force of the Utuo, most of the Utuo came here, relying on them, they would definitely not be able to stop the evil wolves going into the city.

Only as He Yan said on the eve of the night, they would be able to stop these Utopians with a fire attack and the remaining fish that slipped through the net. But the fire attack… is it really usable?

A Jiyang city soldier was lying in the grass with a bow and arrow on his back. The long weeds covered his face, making him slightly itchy, but he remained motionless and didn’t even mean to scratch it.

It’s not just people who don’t move. The weeds in front of him, the small flowers on the side of the road, the calm water, the feathery dandelions… are all motionless.

There is no wind today.

Cui Yuezhi’s heart gradually sinks. There is no wind today and the weather is not good. With only the soldiers in Xiao Jue’s hand less than 20,000, he does not need to attack by fire, and I am afraid that he cannot compete with the Utuo. What they called an ambush here, maybe they ended up being prey for the Uto people instead.

But how can there be no wind?

Xiao Jue’s martial artist, the white-clothed swordsman who seemed to be very powerful, said to him with great certainty: “Don’t worry, there must be wind today.”

The people at Sitiantai said that there is wind in 50% today and no wind in 50%. It’s impossible to say, but Liu Buwei said: “Arrange an ambush, there must be wind today.”

Hearing that Yunlin lay layman Liu did not forget to help him to ask the hexagrams, so they were convinced, or perhaps because of self-deception, hoping that he was telling the truth, so he believed what he said. But right now, where is the wind?

By the way, what about Liu Bu?

Cui Yuezhi just remembered. It seemed that when he woke up early this morning, when he left Cui Mansion and came to the camp at the martial arts field, he did not see Liu Bu forget.

…

The water surface is slightly turbulent, not the wind, but the fish in the water.

On the bank of the embankment, there are velvety spring grass, pink and willow green, and in the deep forest with strange rocks, some people are sitting on the ground with a guqin in front of them. This man is dressed in white, his robe is neat and not stained with dust, his appearance is particularly elegant, and he wears a sword around his waist, like a chivalrous knight.

Liu Bulong looked at the sky.

The sun’s rays cast a golden shadow in the woods. It doesn’t make people feel hot, it’s just right to be warm. This is a vibrant spring day, and every piece of new greenery has spring in it, falling in the gentle water village.

The sound of fighting in the distance is in sharp contrast with the tranquility of this place, and the place not far away is distinct.

The wind hasn’t come yet, but Liu does not forget that the wind will come no matter if it is earlier or later.

Many years ago, the vitality was dead, but after many years, he helped him to get a glimmer of life. He didn’t know who the pair of shadows were at first, but now it seems that it is most likely that it is his apprentice He Yan, and the young and valiant military commander Xiao Huaijin.

Since these two are generals, they have been fighting on the battlefield for many years, invisibly, they have already saved many lives. This is a merit. Those who have merits, God will not treat them too harshly, and wherever they go, there will be blessings. Xu is because of the uprightness and brightness in them, and even the dead game of Jiyang City has given them a hint of vitality.

These two people are the ones who can play checkmates alive.

Although you can’t see the ending, you may see the slightest vitality. Since there is vitality, it means that the road is not a dead end. So the wind will come, although it may not come too early, but the wind will come.

And what he had to do was to grasp that vitality tightly, and help the two of them to make this game alive.

The sound of fighting in the distance seemed to get closer, which was not an illusion. Liu Bu didn’t forget to look forward. Several big boats… are coming here.

The Utuo are not fools, and they will not be held back by Xiao Jue. When their main force fought against the Jiyang City Army led by Xiao Jue, another team sneaked ashore in the chaos. As long as they got on the shore, they controlled the whole In Jiyang City, the victory of the water war is only a matter of time.

Cui Yuezhi’s men and horses are in the mouth of the gourd, and there is still some distance from here. They thought they were the first line of defense, but they weren’t. Liu Buwang was the first line of defense.

Among the seven apprentices of Dao Master Yun Ji, he did the best of the Qimen Dunjia technique. Over the years, he seldom used this technique because it was extremely exhausting and damaging physical strength. And he is no longer the boy of the year, even if he is in white clothes, he has white sideburns.

However, he will always stay here, guarding her city.

Liu Bu forget to pluck the strings.
