Chapter 444 Regain self-confidence
When faced with the fierce attack of the cavalry, the gap between the Jingkou Army and the Kuaiji Army immediately became apparent.
Perhaps it was because they were refugees from the north who had fought against foreigners such as the Jie and Xiongnu for a long time, or perhaps because they had ballistae in hand. Although the Jingkou Army only had ten thousand people, their faces were calm and they only focused their gaze on the large hazy mass in front of them. of black shadow.
Relatively speaking, the Kuaiji Army, which was composed entirely of Wu Hui people, was tense and had obvious fright on their faces. In fact, most of the Kuaiji Army were descended from Shanyue, and Shanyue was known for his bravery and good fighting skills. You shouldn't be so cowardly, but this army has never fought a battle since its establishment, let alone the first battle against the alien cavalry. The feeling of panic is uncontrollable and pours out from the bottom of your heart one after another!
"There are actually ten thousand enemy cavalry. The Wujin defenders must have deceived me into losing my footing!" When the cavalry rushed about two miles away, Yu Bing finally discerned the number of people and couldn't help but exclaimed.
This infantry army of 30,000 people marched 200 miles in two days and nights. They were exhausted and hungry. Due to the unclear vision in the dark night, Yu Bing was worried that being charged by the enemy's cavalry would cause the entire army to collapse!
Xi Jian waved his hand: "Ji Jian (named by Yu Bing), don't panic, let's see how I can stop it!"
Xi Jian stared straight ahead again, secretly calculating the distance. After a few breaths, he waved his hand: "Let go!"
"Tangtangtong~~" The first is the crossbow-type ballista. The huge arrows blend into the night. Except for a few people with good eyesight, the rest can only hear the sound but not see the shape. However, mixed with the roaring sound in the sky In the sound, there is a clearly distinguishable sound of people neighing and horses neighing!
Everyone could understand that the giant arrow had an extremely gratifying impact. For a moment, the tense heartstrings of the Kuaiji army relaxed a little.
It followed closely. A buzzing sound of throwing sounded, and for a moment the light burst out. Everyone could see clearly. Sparks bloomed in the cavalry. The ruthless flames devoured everything around them. Countless people and horses were struggling in the flames. Running, the forward formation collapsed in the blink of an eye!
Brothers Yu Liang and Yu Bing stared ahead dumbfounded. Is this too terrifying?
Xi Jian glanced at the two of them proudly. He smiled slightly and said, "Yuan Zhen, Ji Jian, have you ever told the truth?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Yu Liang's face, and he cupped his hands and said, "If Shangshu Ling has such a sharp weapon, why worry about whether Wu Jin can defeat it?"
"Hahahaha~~" Xi Jian stroked his beard proudly and laughed wildly!
In the fire net woven by giant arrows, kerosene bombs, and interspersed with crossbowmen, the enemy cavalry quickly became unable to hold on and retreated towards the city. The coalition forces took their time and used kerosene bombs and giant arrows to clear the way. , advanced slowly. Soon the battle reached the top of the city. At about dawn, the defenders finally abandoned the city and fled, and Wujin was declared lost!
Wujin was originally a small town with only a few thousand residents, but Liu Kun forcefully packed in all the families of the navy soldiers, bringing the number to about 100,000. The entire city was overcrowded and the living conditions were extremely harsh. Yu Liangyu The two Bing brothers followed the crowd to comfort and evacuate the people, but they were still full of disbelief in their hearts!
At dawn at about the same time, two thousand guards had swam to meet Yunfeng in front of Jiangcheng Water Village. The so-called water village was actually quite simple. Along the river, from the shallow water area to the mudflat, and then to the shore, there were piles of There were densely packed large and small boats, and a little further away were bundles of firewood, with Xianbei soldiers patrolling back and forth. About fifty steps behind was a camp to house Wujun soldiers, and there were not many Xianbei people inside. , usually they only stay behind to supervise when they go into battle, while the main force is stationed in Jiangcheng City, which is more than ten miles away.
Lu Na had just woken up. Being soaked in the river made him very uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do about it. There were so many people around him, including Yun Feng, who was the king. He could only endure it, even though Lu Na had already planned to revive the family.
He was determined to work hard, but when things came to an end, it was another matter, and his body was shaking uncontrollably.
Yunfeng didn't know whether it was due to the cold he suffered from soaking in the river or because of nervousness. He just patted him to reassure him, then turned his head and called in a low voice: "Wang Gui, the eldest son of the Lu family has left it to you, Qian."
Keep him safe!"
Upon hearing this, perhaps realizing that the battle was coming, Lu Na's body trembled even more violently, but Wang Gui pulled Lu Na over and said with a smile: "Don't panic, Mr. Da Lang, just lie on the back of the general.
Don't move around and nothing will happen!"
"Oh, oh, thank you General Wang for taking the trouble!" Lu Na quickly climbed onto Wang Gui's back and hugged Wang Gui's neck tightly with both hands, as if he was surrounded by a cliff.
Yunfeng shook his head secretly. To be honest, he didn't understand. Back then, Lu Na led the army to rescue Guangling. According to Xun Guanniang, the first impression he gave people was that he looked like a general. How come he turned into a general now?
Such a coward?
In fact, it was that tragic defeat that severely damaged Lu Na's confidence, and he has not been able to recover from the cruelty of the war. Every time he thinks about it, he shudders deeply.
Yunfeng didn't care about Lu Na at this time. He looked forward. Although the sky was not bright yet, there were already scattered noises coming from the camp.
This is the moment Yunfeng was waiting for. You must know that the purpose this time is not to rob the camp, but to persuade them to surrender. If they suddenly attack in the dead of night, the Wujun navy will easily cause chaos in a daze, and people have just woken up in the morning.
It is the time of day when your mind is clearest and your judgment is strongest.
"Up!" Yunfeng waved his hand fiercely!
Two thousand personal guards suddenly jumped out of the water and quickly attacked the unprepared patrols. This time, because they swam in the water, they could not carry crossbows and relied entirely on hand-to-hand combat. The guards all used their weapons.
Got the sword.
The patrolmen obviously hadn't recovered yet. Some were stunned on the spot, some were shouting anxiously, some turned around and ran towards the camp, and some even rushed forward to fight without fear of death!
The sudden shouts of killing alarmed the water village. Not long after getting up, the soldiers who were preparing to have a meal hurriedly got out of the camp and looked ahead in astonishment.
"Hurry up, hurry up! If the enemy attacks, I'll give it to you. Don't wait around to kill them!"
"Damn it, why don't you move? I think you did it on purpose! Your family and relatives don't want to die, right?"
Amid the threats, the naval officers had no choice but to raise their weapons and had no choice but to leave the stronghold to meet the enemy.
Quickly looking ahead, Yunfeng quickly swept around again. In just a short moment, most of the Xianbei soldiers on patrol had been killed, and only a few escaped back to the camp. So, he immediately gave Wang Gui a blow.
gesture.
Wang Gui put Lu Na down and urged: "Dalangjun, it's up to you!"
His former subordinates were charging at him with all kinds of weapons. Lu Na's tense heart was in his throat, and he couldn't speak fluently!
"Everyone...all...all..."
Lu Na's face was red from holding it back, and Wang Gui became anxious when he saw it. Your mother is so bad? She didn't even come out for a long time, and she actually started to stutter!
Wang Gui quickly shouted: "Bold! Wu Commandery Navy Commander Lu Na is here, why don't you stop and see the general!"
Although his skills were far inferior to Yunfeng's, Wang Gui's shout shocked the entire audience. The Wujun navy soldiers were all startled, and looked at Lu Na at the light that had just appeared between heaven and earth.
After a moment of buffering, Lu Na's speech returned to normal. He raised his voice to the highest level and called out: "Brothers, this general is Lu Na, the naval commander of Wu County. My Lu family and even everyone in Wu County have surrendered.
King Qin, your family members were rescued by King Qin not long ago, and Liu Kun can no longer threaten you!"
As soon as these words came out, there was an immediate commotion in the crowd. The soldiers stopped one after another and quickly passed Luna's original words back!
"Bullshit on your mother!" A Xianbei general yelled angrily: "That's nonsense. Don't listen to him. Give them all to me. Kill them. I can tell your majesty on your behalf and there will be heavy rewards. Otherwise, the consequences will be...
You can weigh it yourself!"
Because he successfully opened his mouth, Lu Na's inferiority and nervousness were gone. Just when he was about to persuade him again, he saw Yun Feng giving him a look that was mixed with praise and encouragement. He suddenly became energetic, as if at this moment,
He returned to the high-spirited time when he first took charge of the Wujun navy, and immediately shouted: "How could I, Mr. Lu, ever let go of empty words? You don't even believe me, general?"
Although Lu Na was not proficient in martial arts, there was a magical light in his eyes, and the aura of a superior was unmistakable. After sweeping the whole place, he shouted again: "The whole army listens to the order, kill all the humble slaves, and then follow me."
Get on the boat and go to Liyang for temporary shelter!"
Although in the eyes of Yunfeng and the gentry with the surname Qiao, the gentry with the surname Wu are corrupt and worthless, in the minds of ordinary people in Wu County, surnames such as Lu, Gu, Zhou and others have a high reputation, and their words are more effective than those of the court.
A hundred times more than that.
The so-called county leaders refer to the noble family that is looked up to by everyone in the county, and they have unparalleled influence in the local area!
After Lu Na gave the order, the Wujun navy no longer had any doubts and turned their resentful eyes towards the Xianbei people who were guarding them!
All the Xianbei people secretly knew something was wrong, and another general yelled in a stern tone: "Do you really want to rebel? Just don't care..."
Before he finished speaking, "Kill! Kill these dog thieves!" I don't know who started it. The shouts of killing were everywhere in the water stronghold, and the densely packed swords and guns were all coming to greet them. Liu Kun didn't have many soldiers left in the water stronghold.
, with only three thousand troops, how could it be a match for tens of thousands of angry navy soldiers? They didn't even have time to escape, they were surrounded, and screams of misery kept coming!
The scene in front of him made Lu Na feel comfortable and confident. The haze that had shrouded his heart for several years had completely dissipated. He couldn't help but bow deeply to Yunfeng: "Na, thank you so much, King Qin today."
Lu Na's thanks had two meanings, one was for himself and his family, and the other was for the soldiers of the Wujun Navy. Yunfeng could naturally hear it, raised his hand and smiled and said: "People will always have to experience some setbacks in this life.
, It is not a good thing to blindly follow the wind and tide. If the great man of the Lu family can get over his disappointment and change his aristocratic habits, I dare to say that the lintel of the Lu family will be prosperous through you!"
