"Dang quickly, dock quickly, and dock immediately at all costs; raise the light quickly and send my order"

Zhong Jiwen suddenly became blessed in his heart and shouted desperately.

Because he finally remembered that although it was easy to dim down Chencang tonight under the moonlight, he could easily see the existence of stars. Those little things were obviously not "starlight", but the unknown lights of the ships breaking into the Qiantang River.

However, he only counted the Taiping thief boat troops trapped in the upper reaches of the Caohe River, but he did not expect that there would be someone who could go upstream from the high tide Hangzhou Bay and the sea outside Qiantangkou at the high tide.

However, what kind of magic did the other party use and how did he do it? But he had no time or power to think about it. Because the small fire light not far away, the sudden roar of a sudden came to cover his shouts one after another.

In an instant, he saw the lights of the ferry boats that were just following behind him, and the small piece that had disappeared and disappeared in a faint slight roar and cracking sound.

When a fire lights rise again, it can only illuminate some fragments on the river surface, or the figures of the broken river boats, competing to set the river or jump into the water.

It was like an invisible giant beast in the darkness of the river, riding under the cover of twilight, constantly devouring the subsequent ships under his command. Almost every time the fire flashed with a dull roar, the lights on the ferry disappeared; then turned into wreckage burning on the water surface.

The remaining lights of the river boat that had just passed through the middle stream were like fish frightened by fierce sharks, completely scattered on the river surface, and were in panic and striking and overturning caused by the squeeze, and the lights on the boat were extinguished one after another.

However, Zhong Jiwen, who was on the boat, could only watch all this and was powerless; because the group of people crossing the river were mainly supplies, food and livestock, and there were not many soldiers on the boat except for boatmen and water men who could even take the bow and fight back.

Then the enemy lights that were hidden in the dark twilight easily opened like ferocious beasts rushing around. After scattering most of the ferries on the river, they continued to rush towards the boat where Zhong Jiwen was, and the sound of water rushed forward with a fierce sound.

At this time, a round of water columns splashed one after another near Zhong Jiwen's boat; suddenly a corner of the stern jumped out of thin air, and the wood chips and pieces splashed everywhere, suddenly the recent guards standing were knocked to the ground, and covered their heads and faces screamed in blood.

"Please avoid it quickly..."

Just as the shouts from both sides were rushing to the side, Zhong Jiwen was also dragged into a relatively safe cabin by the guards who rushed up, and then raised his hand to cover him up. On the other hand, someone rushed to urge the water husbands who were responsible for paddling down the cabin:

"Quick, hurry up, step up the paddles, stop rushing to the shore with all my strength..."

However, before the repetition was finished, the hull suddenly felt shocked again one after another, and a violent hissing sound broke out under the warehouse, with wailing and shattering sounds; and the inspiration and whining completely disappeared.

"Not good, Lian Shuai..."

Then a guard guard with a bloody face and still had wooden pieces on his face rushed to Zhong Jiwen and threw himself down and shouted.

"The outer wall was pierced by unknown things from the cabin. Most of the paddlers were killed and injured, and the rest of the people could no longer control the ship."

"Take off your robe and armor with me, and put down the boat immediately... I can't stay on the boat anymore."

Zhong Jiwen, who was already inexplicably shocked when he heard this, immediately drank to the left and right.

"promise.."

The left and right guards rushed forward and became busy. At this time, there was another exclamation from the outside:

"The enemy ship rushed over."

At this time, Zhong Jiwen, who had completed light-fitting, rushed from the left and right to the side of the ship. When he turned around, he saw a strange-looking ship covered with smoke and arrow feathers, which was diagonally tilted towards the bow of the ship that was struggling toward the shore, and cut across with a pointed tip flashing with metal reflection.

However, the other party's low ship gang and tall wheel hub slabs were recognized at first sight. These were vehicles and ships, and they were vehicles and ships that could flow upstream in the offshore and river tides.

At this moment, Zhong Jiwen regretted his remnant and influence among the Mingzhou navy because he was afraid of the former General Jinwu and the coastal envoy Zhang Quan. After a large-scale purge, he did not dare to trust the remaining troops and did not bring out all the Mingzhou navy who could still fight.

Even if they do not participate in the war directly and patrol in Haikou is enough to avoid these unexpected risks, or delay a little, they can still be prepared to deal with it without being trapped on the ferry and doing nothing, and eventually they can only be passively beaten and run away in panic.

As he slowly fell down the shaking boat and squatted on the board, the enemy ship had already collided with the boat. The splashes that sparked near him instantly made him look full of his head and face, and even drove another guard who was standing on the boat out of the river.

Then there were suddenly more dense roars and screams, and the fierce shouts of killing from jumping gangs, filled the ears of the Xiaozhou who was shaking and trying hard to leave;

At this moment, Zhong Jiwen, whose face was extremely bleak, could only bite his arm that had already been bleeding, and use severe pain to curb his urge to make a sound.

However, as a leading general, his instinct made him realize that these ships on the river were irreversible. For the sake of this, he was to go ashore as much as possible and regain control of his troops who had crossed the river, so that he could recover the subsequent situation.

After all, since the thief army was prepared for the strong attack on the river, wouldn’t this generation have been on high alert in the land and have laid corresponding nets? At this moment, he hated the local gentry who provided him with information and agreements.

If these miserable people had not made people vow to protect themselves, the Taiping thieves north of Qiantang were temporarily in peace and scattered for a while, and the intention of plundering the country without any progress was very clear, and he would not have decided to launch this battle of crossing the river.

Now I think I've probably fallen into the counter-split plan of others; you should know that the supplies, food, grass and equipment on this batch of ferry boats account for more than half of the army under his command, and the back team and other supplies that were still stranded and separated on the other shore.

These people who have crossed the river have become rootless troops that are difficult to last; if they cannot fight quickly and decide quickly, they will easily forget the lack of food and fall into a state of disintegration and separation.

Therefore, he made up his mind again. Once he returned to the camp of the North Bank's main formation, he quickly dispatched other troops who were easily shaken to eat (plunder) in various counties, and then led his own team to make a bluff of force against Qiantang...

"Lian Shuai, Lian Shuai, the stars fell down..."

Suddenly, the personal soldiers beside him who were struggling to paddle hard pointed at the sky again and shouted in a hurry.

Then Zhong Jiwen saw again, and there were fire spots rising from the dark river in the distance, slowly cutting through the dim night sky, turning into increasingly larger and larger fire dragons;

Then, like a meteor fire rain, they fell into the north shore in a mess, among the people who had been alarmed and wanted to respond nearby; suddenly, fireworks and roars were everywhere, all of which were screaming and running around, and the sound of people rushing up and down.

The soldiers gathered on the shore even were frightened and pushed behind and crowded, and they were stumbled or jumped into the dark and cold river water involuntarily.

"Lian Shuai is careful..."

Then another paddler shouted again, but another burning but empty river boat was drifting from behind along the water.

Then, with some strange neighing sound on the ship, it suddenly cracked from the charred black and crisp wall panel, and rushed out a huge figure, but it was a military horse carried on the ship, falling into the water with sparks ignited with manes.

Then he swam towards their small boat like a psychic, but the few soldiers who were rowing showed some resentment and disgust. He waved the boat's oars and wanted to drive them away.

Then the black and mottled military horse was beaten several times before wailing and making way out. At this time, the fireboat that had passed by had already hit the beach and ran aground on the rocky beach on the river bank.

Only then did Zhong Jiwen breathe a little relieved without any danger. Relying on the illumination of the fire boat, he could already see the embankment full of corpses. At this time, the fire boat was burning, but suddenly became increasingly fierce and exploded.

In the sky-flying rain of sparks, a flying beam hit the side of the boat, not only breaking the arms and paddles of the two personal soldiers, but also splashing the broken charcoal on the other people.

Zhong Jiwen, who was protected in the middle, was also unable to escape, and several smokey holes were burned on the silk cloth robes. Just as he tried hard to beat him, the bald-tailed and scorched military horse swam over again.

With the hoarse Herod voice leaning against the side that Xiaozhou had no time to care about, Zhong Jiwen, who was standing up and shaking off the charcoal ash in his clothes, was immediately swiftly pulled into the river.

On a mountain on the north bank, the deputy firewood of the Zhoushi team quickly dropped the flame tube used to guide the direction. Not far away, it alarmed the outsiders of the Eastern Zhejiang Alliance. Before gathering and searching one after another, it jumped back into the grass under the night sky.

In the night wind in the distance when he retreated, there was a slight tremor of a large group of horses galloping; and with the bright torches and long dragons, the wind and lights were rolling up at the outer periphery of these camps, which were not stable, most of the fortifications and barriers, and were not yet set off.

At the same time, in Qiantang City, Zhou Huaian, wearing a blue-black cloak, also stood on the brightly lit city, watching the movements of scribbling and burning at the wharf along the West Lake and markets.

"You said, why do you have to stay with such a huge relationship? Isn't it great to escape from the control of our army?"

He then stood beside Wei Nuonuo, and the last few representatives of the elders at the banquet, said:

"The Grand Governor has no worries... Even if he runs away, what can he do? It's just the result of being imprisoned sooner or later... It's better to use this to help you with yourself and correct your reputation."

As the leader of Shen, the Qiantang family, Chen Yannian, did not hesitate.

"Besides, the Grand Governor has a land in the south. Even if I can run away, can I still run away from my family in Liangling, Fujian and Zhejiang?"

Huang Wenyi, the head of the Huang family, also smiled bitterly:

"Since the nobles have not had the reputation of robbing them before, I can only hope that the Grand Commander will be able to take a closer look after the matter..."

"I am old and I am still a little bit hard to leave my hometown. I also feel that since I have nothing to do with my family and don't know about it, why bother to bring trouble to the right and wrong? Maybe I have a chance to distinguish and slow down after staying."

Gu Xibai, the chief of Gu's clan, also nodded slowly.

"It's really a misfortune in the family. Someone was involved in it. In order to save some incense and blood, the villain could only stand up in order to redeem a retribution..."
