Chapter 840 Looking at the scenery on the cliff
The cold wind is biting, and the long night is cold.
The Huang family's ships were like countless monsters floating on the water, ranging in a few miles, and even thin ice was frozen on the bow deck. If you were not careful while walking, you might fall a dog to eat shit.
It was cold and the land was frozen. Most of the troops on the island had already followed Huang Zhigui to Taiyuan City. The few sailors were scattered on various ships. In fact, most of the ships did not have sailors at this time. Only those important ships with larger sizes were stationed by sailors.
There were still many people left on the two islands, but the Huang family's family accounted for the majority. Huang Tianyi wanted to lead people to capture the Governor's Office in one fell swoop and seize Yuan Chongshang, and then he took the opportunity to seize Taiyuan City.
Before this, in order to prevent accidents, he had already asked the Huang clan members to quickly transfer their families. At that time, Yuan Chongshang had no idea that His Majesty the Emperor had attacked the Huang family in the capital, so Yuan Chongshang did not notice that the Huang clan members had secretly transferred their families. Yuan Chongshang did not notice that the Huang clan members had broken into pieces and hid in the Yusuo Lake one after another. The two islands were enough to accommodate nearly 10,000 people. Many houses had been built on the two islands earlier. Although there were too many people and the houses could not accommodate them, many tents were temporarily built.
The two islands stocked up a large amount of supplies and had no shortage of food and drink, so although they were trapped on the island, they had no worries about food and clothing.
There are hundreds of Huang clan members on the island. Although Huang Zhigui took away a large number of elite soldiers, he still left hundreds of warworthy soldiers, half of whom were guarding the island, and the other half was staying on the ship.
Compared to a month ago, the island is already much more happy.
When they just retreated to Yusuo Lake, the Huang family was in despair. For most people, retreating to Yusuo Lake was just waiting for the day of destruction on the island if there was no way out.
The officers and soldiers besieged Yusuo Lake, which made almost everyone on the island panic. Fear and despair enveloped the sky above Yusuo Lake. However, the last time there was a water battle with the officers and soldiers, almost all the officers and soldiers attacking Yusuo Lake were killed. The casualties of the Huang family army were almost ignored. After the battle, the morale on the island was greatly boosted, and the desperate Huang family army seemed to see the dawn.
This time, Huang Zhigui led his troops to attack and joined forces with Guifang people. He almost instantly defeated the Yizhou army stationed on the east coast and retreated in a mess. People on the island have also learned that the Huang family army was going to attack Taiyuan with Guifang troops. After taking Taiyuan, everyone on the island will be transferred to Taiyuan City.
Many people have already started talking about it in private. Those who follow Huang Tianyi actually understand that the Huang family has rebelled and advanced into Taiyuan City is actually the first step for the Huang family to start fighting for the world.
After fighting with officers and soldiers twice, the Huang family army was already extremely disdainful of the combat effectiveness of officers and soldiers. In the eyes of the Huang family army, officers and soldiers were just a group of wine bags and a group of paper-paste shrimp soldiers and crab generals. Psychologically, the Huang family army already had absolute confidence.
In fact, many people from the Huang family's army found it understandable that there was nothing wrong with the Huang family's rebellion, and some even had great expectations for the Huang family to compete for the world.
In the eyes of many people in the Huang family army, the Qin court is now surrounded by enemies and cannot be considered a complete country. The officials are incompetent and the soldiers cannot fight, and the world is still in chaos. Taking advantage of the situation at this time, it is also a great choice. The Huang family army is mostly outlaws, and they are full of ambitions at heart. If they can follow the Huang family to rebel and build great achievements, they will not only be able to gain wealth and wealth without hands, but also keep their ancestors in history. Many people are even thriving in their blood, thinking about being founding ministers.
The winner is the king, and the loser is the enemy!
The cold night was long, and the sailors on the boat did not treat themselves badly. They burned the hot pot bottom in the cabin and cooked fragrant meat. Several people gathered together, drinking good wine and eating, which was awesome.
When the Huang family was in the most difficult time, they had to rely on these people to work for the Huang family, so they would naturally not treat these people unfairly. They were very generous in food, drink and clothing. The island had abundant supplies, and the compensation for the personnel was also very generous, and the supply of fine wine and food was sufficient.
Several sailors sat together and said exciting jokes. On this island, they had no worries about food and drink, but the only disadvantage was that there were few women. Most of the women on the island were the families of the Huang family. Naturally, the soldiers of the Huang family dared not touch it. Even if the maids and maids brought to the island by the Huang family, they should not be touched easily. Last time, one of them couldn't help but forced a maid, and then was executed by Huang Tianyi. Since then, the discipline on the island has been very strict, and the men can only gather together to show off their verbal desires.
There was not much food left in the hot pot, and the cabin was filled with the smell of wine and meat. A few people were drunk and lay down on the floor.
"The smell of wine is a bit strange!" A sailor took a jar of wine and patted Kaifeng mud. A smell of wine spread out, but it contained a strange smell. The sailor couldn't help frowning.
A man next to him grabbed the wine jar, smelled it, and said strangely: "What's weird?"
"Don't you smell it?" the companion frowned, "The smell is not right..."
One person next to him also frowned, "It seems that there is really a strange smell." He also snatched the jar of wine, put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it, shook his head, "It's not wine..." A look of confusion appeared on his face, and a gust of wind came in from outside the cabin. The man sniffed his nose, and then his face darkened, "It's coming from outside..."
At this time, several people had already smelled the smell and said, "It seems that something is really wrong... Hey, what's the smell...!"
“What an unpleasant smell…!”
An older sailor frowned at first, then looked surprised on his face, "Not good..." He quickly stood up, without saying a word, walked quickly outside the cabin.
Seeing the sailor go out, the others get up and follow, and a few are lying on the board and sleeping soundly, not knowing the human affairs.
The sailors snatched out of the cabin, and the smell became even stronger. The older sailor ran to the side of the ship and shouted: "Hurry up, bring the lights..."
This old sailor has enough experience on weekdays, and everyone respects him a little. Someone has quickly gone to get lanterns for cannon fodder cabin. When he came out, he saw his companions lying on the side of the ship and looking at the water.
Seeing the light coming, the old sailor had already said in a deep voice: "Give it to me!" He took the lantern, poked out the side of the boat, and shone it onto the water surface. He immediately saw that the color on the water surface was extremely strange.
A man asked half drunk and half awake, "Hey, what is on the water? It's so... so weird..."
"Tube oil!" The old sailor's face turned pale, "Where did the tincture oil come from..."
A layer of black greasy floating on the water surface, floating on the water, and under the lights, it was seen very clearly.
"Who put oil into the water?" Someone immediately cursed: "Grandma, if this is accidentally burned, it would be great..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a cry from afar, "Do you have tincture oil?"
The old sailor heard the sound coming from behind, and hurriedly turned around and ran to the other side. He didn't reply at first, and shone the lantern on the water. His face looked even more ugly. Not only on the other side of the boat, but also on this side, there was a layer of tinder oil on the water.
The old sailor raised his head and saw a large ship in the distance with lights on the side of the ship. Then the old sailor asked loudly: "What's wrong with you?"
"Mom, who is putting oil into the water?" The other side cursed: "There are all oil flowers on the water. Wan is getting hot together. That's all, which turtle boy is so careless..."
The old sailor's face was not only ashen, but also showed fear in his eyes. He opened his mouth and could not speak. At this time, a cold wind blew, and a strong greasy smell penetrated into his nose. The old sailor took two steps back, his face was already scared. Seeing him like this, his companions were curious. Someone had asked: "Lao Hong, are you being evil? What's going on?"
The old sailor looked at the man and said word by word: "We... are finished!"
When everyone heard such a stupid sentence, they were all confused. Suddenly, one of them said in a lost voice: "No, Lao Hong, are you... you want to say that this... this turmeric oil is not our own accidental person, but...!" His face turned pale.
The old sailor smiled bitterly and said, "Who can accidentally put down so much oil? The water is covered with oil..." Before he finished speaking, he still heard someone exclaiming, "No, there is fire over there...!"
Everyone looked up and saw that the direction to the left, which had been pitch black before, suddenly a fire suddenly soared into the sky. In just a blink of an eye, a raging fire had already burned there, and the flames soared into the sky, and the dark sky turned red in an instant.
"Quick..." Lao Hong said sternly: "Get out of here, get out of the cabin, and do the boat..." The sailors knew that something was wrong, and at this time they didn't care how much tincture oil appeared on the water. After Lao Hong gave the order, these people had quickly ran to the bottom cabin. Even if they were the stupidest, they understood what was going on. Last time they burned the officers and soldiers and won a great victory. They saw thousands of officers and soldiers burned to ashes in the fire. Tonight, it seemed that bad luck had come to their heads.
Lao Hong felt weak all over. At this time, he had already seen that not only the left direction, but also the front, back, left and right, there were already a raging fire.
The fires soared into the sky, and he could clearly see the ships anchored on the lake. The black ships were crisscrossing, as numerous as cows, and they could not see at first sight. The raging fire actually burned from all directions. The tincture oil burned at an astonishing speed, and the spreading speed was extremely fast, spreading rapidly from all sides to the middle.
Huang Tianyi was in the study room at this time. In his study room, there was a map of Anyi. He could see the mountains, rivers and rivers of the six paths of Anyi. He stood in front of the map with his hands on his back, looking at the crisscrossing map, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Suddenly, his brows locked up and turned around, because he vaguely heard a terrifying scream coming.
Huang Tianyi walked out of the room and had not yet walked out of the yard. Someone had already rushed over and knelt down and reported: "Master, big things are not good, our boat... is burning!"
"What the hell is going on?" Huang Tianyi's face changed drastically. At this time, he had already seen the sky curtain in the east, and felt that things were unusual. Without waiting for his subordinates to answer, he quickly walked out of the yard.
The villa was built at the highest point of Liyu Island to see far. Huang Tianyi came under a green pine tree. Looking at the cliff, he saw a sea of fire above the river. The red seemed to burn the sky. The continuous screams came from the fleet. He could even see the sailors as big as ants in the sea of fire panic and fleeing in scattered. Some people jumped into the lake like headless flies, and more people were burned by fire and ran around on the boat. The scene was really thrilling and terrifying.
