Chapter 790 Gifts
At this time, the headmaster and other officials also came over in panic. They were not fools. Even though they had not figured out what was going on before, they already knew the general situation.
Everyone understands that the ships burning in the fire at this time are all the ships of the government, and the heart-wrenching screams are the voices of the Governor-General's Imperial Guards.
Compared with the state army, the Imperial Guards are much stronger in terms of equipment and combat effectiveness. The armor of the Imperial Guards is all double-layer armor, and the swords are also exquisite steel swords. They are extremely sharp. The troops besieged Yusuo Lake exceed 10,000, including more than 3,000 elite imperial guards. These three thousand elite imperial guards, plus two thousand state troops, are heavily deployed on the east side of Yusuo Lake.
This night attack on Yusuo Lake, almost all three thousand imperial guards were dispatched.
The Imperial Guard was the personal guard of Governor Yuan Chongshang. It belonged to his direct troops and was the first to destroy the Huang family rebellion. Yuan Chongshang naturally gave it to the Imperial Guard unswervingly.
When the Imperial Guard captured Yusuohu, Yuan Chongshang naturally had a bright face, and that was his victory. What's more, the Imperial Guard had not had many opportunities to carry out actual combat training. This time, he had such an opportunity to make contributions and train troops. Of course, Yuan Chongshang would not let it go.
At this time, the shore was covered with darkness and people were crowded with screams from the lake. Yuan Chongshang was held back by Chu Huan and looked into the lake from afar, his eyes were all broken.
"Order retreat!" Yuan Chongshang was not a mediocre person after all. After being shocked and angry, he suddenly shouted loudly, "Send the order to withdraw the troops, hurry up, yell the gold..."
Yusuo Lake belongs to the war zone, and there is naturally no shortage of war drums and gold beads. After Yuan Chongshang issued the order, someone immediately hit the gold beads violently, but the fleet in the lake was already in chaos. There were not many officers and soldiers on the boat who were good at water. They were surrounded by fire in the lake, and they were all panicked. The officers and soldiers were in chaos, and many ships even collided with each other. People on the shore could roughly see the scene, but the officers and soldiers who were deeply trapped in it only saw the raging fires around, and they could not even understand the direction. They finally heard the sound of gold beads from the shore, but they could not organize an effective retreat for a while.
Fang Shihao's face turned pale.
He held a sword in his hand and could even go forward with the lights flashing in the distance, but his subordinates were already in chaos. The officers and soldiers could no longer care about how deep the Yusuo Lake suddenly was, and they even had no choice but to whether they could water. They jumped down from both sides of the ship. Most of the ships were burning, and the fire was spreading very quickly with the wind. Many soldiers were also swallowed up in the fire.
"Return the bow of the ship." Fang Shihao shouted loudly with all his might, "Don't be messed up, retreat, don't jump the ship..." He knew in his heart that it was a long distance from the shore. On such a winter night, the lake was cold and many soldiers were wearing heavy armor. Jumping into the lake was undoubtedly a suicide. Even if they were not burned, they would be drowned and frozen to death.
Fang Shihao was surprised when he heard the sound of war drums. He soon saw the fire light lit up. The half-arced fire light had appeared behind him. He had seen clearly that the fire lights were all lit up from the ship, but they were not the officers and soldiers' ships. In the fire light, you could clearly see the "yellow" flags flying on the ships. The Huang family's fleet actually circled the rear of the fleet like a ghost, cutting off the retreat of the officers and soldiers.
Fang Shihao's heart sank.
He thought it would be a beautiful sneak attack tonight, but in the end he realized that Yuan Chongshang had painstakingly plotted and seemed extremely clever sneak attack plan, but in the end he ruined thousands of officers and soldiers.
Chu Huan's face was extremely solemn.
The Huang family fleet suddenly raised a torch, which made the ghost-like fleet show its authentic works. Dozens of ships of the Huang family surrounded the official ship in a semi-arc shape.
The sound of the gold beeps kept coming to my ears, but the sound of the gold beeps could no longer play any role at this time. The officers and soldiers wanted to retreat, but they could not retreat.
What's even more terrifying is that Yusuo Lake is surrounded by officers and soldiers. Everyone watched dozens of official ships trapped in the fire net, but were unable to rescue them.
Almost all ships that could go into the water had participated in the planned surprise attack tonight. Thousands of officers and soldiers on the shore could only watch their companions in the lake fend for themselves.
Countless officers and soldiers were buried in the sea of fire, and more people jumped into the lake. The heavy armor made them unable to swim at all. The cold and bone-blooded lake water quickly made them lose consciousness. They were a little familiar with the water-oriented stoichi, followed the direction of Jindie, swam there without any brains, but breaking through the fire net, it blocked the Huang family fleet in front.
The bow and side of the Huang family fleet were all covered with archers. The torches were raised high, illuminating the lake as bright as day. However, if there were any officers and soldiers who broke through the fire net, the archers on the ship would immediately shoot without hesitation. Often, as soon as a officer and soldier showed their heads from the water, four or five feather arrows shot to the sky in an instant.
In the fire net, the ship rushed out of the fire net with all its strength. Before the officers and soldiers on the ship came back to their senses, the Huang family's ship had already shot through the two wings very quickly. The arrows were like rain, and they quickly shot the terrifying officers and soldiers. Then they quickly approached the reward deck and jumped onto the official ship to fight. Although the Huang family's troops were not as good as the officers and soldiers, they were on the shaking ship and waiting for their work. The officers and soldiers were no match for the officers and soldiers at all. Not long after, several ships that rushed out of the fire net were seized by the Huang family's troops with quick and decisive attacks.
The Huang family members seemed to be farmers waiting for the rabbits, waiting for the prey to come to the door, and their prey came one by one and then fell into their hands one by one.
The officers and soldiers were very brave, but under the planned organization and attack of the Huang family, they could not fight against him on the lake.
The Huang family members did not even use human hands to fight those smaller ships. They owned two extremely large warships. The bows of the warships had already been equipped with iron-clad bows. Whenever they saw a small official ship, the warship immediately came forward and sank the hard iron-clad bows without any mercy.
Blood and fire intertwined, screams and death spread rapidly.
Above the lake, dead bodies were floating everywhere, and the skeletons that were hit to pieces were also floating and dispersed on the lake. A long-planned surprise attack had turned into a one-sided massacre at this time.
Yuan Chongshang's body was shaking, and he didn't seem to expect that such a result would be. Even though he had an iron-like body, he finally sat on the shore of the lake with his eyes dull. The officials around him were all silent. No one knew what to say. Even at this moment, no one knew what to do. Everyone could only look at the officers and soldiers trapped in the lake, watch them die one by one, and watch the ships become the spoils of the Huang family or sink to the bottom of the lake.
Everything in front of you is like hell on earth.
But for the Huang family, this is undoubtedly a paradise-like scene.
Huang Tianyi was on the tower of a warship at this time. The warship was not only strong in combat, but also beautifully decorated. On the tower at the highest point in the middle of the ship, Huang Tianyi was wearing a mink coat, surrounded by a furry fox scarf, and a wolf-skin hat on his head. He was calm and composed, holding a purple clay pot in his hand. The tea in the lake was hot.
Huang Zhigui stood beside Huang Tianyi, looking at the hell-like scene in front of him, both of them showed smug smiles on their faces.
Huang Tianyi is the head of the Huang family today. He is the eldest son of Duke An Guo, Huang Ju. He is obese and has big heads and ears. He is very different from Huang Zhigui's smart and capable appearance.
In fact, although the head of the Huang family is Huang Tianyi, the military advisor who is offering advice beside him is Huang Zhigui.
The night wind blew, and the wind was filled with a bloody smell. Huang Tianyi sniffed his nose and sighed leisurely: "This smell is really something that makes people linger. Such a fascinating smell has happened a few years ago."
"What does big brother mean?"
Huang Tianyi smiled at Huang Zhigui, "Do you still remember that barbarian woman, the one with white skin, the one with a big butt?"
Huang Zhigui thought about it before laughing and said, "Remember."
"The smell on that woman is also very good." Huang Tianyi sighed: "I was attracted by her smell for more than half a year... Today's taste reminded me of her again."
"Brother later sent her to our building and earned a lot of money." Huang Zhigui sighed: "It was just that he got sick later and died. Now I think about it, it's really a pity."
"Yes." Huang Tianyi said with a hint of regret: "I smell her for half a year, but today's tempting smell may disappear in a few days... Zhigui, do you think our governor likes this smell? He is a soldier and should be very familiar with such a bloody smell."
"The Governor wants to smell the blood on our bodies." Huang Zhigui shook his head and said, "It's a pity that we disappointed him."
"But he didn't disappoint us." Huang Tianyi gently shook the purple clay teapot in his hand, slowly got up, turned to the east, and looked at the dark crowd on the shore in the distance, "He is a general, when did he learn to play these conspiracies? His master can play this trick, but he is still not qualified... Zhigui, I really want to see his current expression."
Huang Zhigui obviously respected Huang Tianyi very much and bent slightly, "I'm afraid the one he wants to kill the most is his eldest brother."
"Yes!" Huang Tianyi sighed: "Thousands of people are broken here. I think he must be very sad. The news will spread all over the place soon. This Governor may never have the face to see anyone again." After pondering slightly, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Zhigui, the tyrant lord is moody. You said that if the tyrant lord knew that his beloved general was defeated, would he take the head of our Governor with one blow?"
Huang Zhigui smiled and said, "Actually, I'm wondering whether the Governor still has the courage to survive? Perhaps before the decree of the foolish monarch came, our Governor cut off his head first."
"Interesting, interesting." Huang Tianyi laughed loudly, turned around, and looked at the messy fleet of officers and soldiers again, "Zhigui, let everyone be more flexible. You know that my heart has always been good. Let them be at peace earlier. If this continues, it will only increase their pain. I...I really can't bear it!"
"Big Brother Bodhisattva's heart." Huang Zhigui said: "Don't worry, since they are here, they will naturally be wiped out. Otherwise... we are too sorry for the Governor's generous gift!"
