A foot wearing a military boot stepped heavily on Zhang Fugui's dead body, hitting him in the chest. The barbs of the claws pierced into his body. The sound of ribs breaking was particularly obvious, for a man in his thirties.
Years old, with a dark face and long beard, looking at Zhang Fugui with a contemptuous sneer under the firelight, isn't it Liu Daogui's subordinate, Zang Tao, a fellow from Jingkou?
Since Zang Tao started his army with Liu Yu, he has been following Liu Daogui and guarding Jingzhou for many years. He also learned the local dialect of Chu early and got along with the Jingzhou soldiers. They even practiced water warfare together all day long. This ambush was based on his
As the chief general, he originally lurked under the Huanglong warship, but when he saw two new assault ships arriving on the opposite side, one of which was carrying the general's flag, he temporarily changed his mind and led more than a hundred of his men to swim to the Langtang.
Below, even Zhang Fugui, who had experienced many battles, did not notice anything strange under the water. If the light of the signal arrow had not illuminated the bottom of the river, Zhang Fugui might not have noticed that he was attacked until his death.
Zang Tao wiped the water droplets on his body and chewed ginger slices in his mouth. They had been lurking under the water for an hour. The river water was cold at night and they needed to replenish a lot of calories. Several seriously injured Tianshi Tao disciples,
They were tied up like rice dumplings and thrown beside Zhang Fugui. The first one among them, the personal guard who was talking to Zhang Fugui just now, was so lost that he didn't even dare to raise his head.
Zang Tao looked around, and in just half a moment, the battle on the entire ship, and even the battle in the seven surrounding Huanglong warships, was over. Thousands of ambushes quickly attacked the sky, which totaled only two to three hundred people.
The disciples of the Master's Dao once again located their positions early. During the surprise attack, almost all of them were killed. In less than half a moment, they killed all the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Dao without leaving any trace. No one could even get a chance.
After sending the signal, the battle was raging on the battlefield ahead. Even Li Yifan didn't even look at the river here. He didn't even know what was happening here.
Zang Tao looked at the bodyguard disciple who was shaking like chaff, stretched out a long knife dripping with blood, and lifted his chin with the back of the knife. The smell of blood, accompanied by the red and white droplets on the knife, rushed straight into the air.
Zang Tao drilled into the nose of this personal guard disciple, and there was probably blood left on the knife after the disciple had been hit by the knife just now, and Zang Tao's cold words penetrated into the ears of this disciple: "If you want to die,
Still want to live?”
The disciple cried out: "I want to live, I want to live. I was kidnapped by the demon thieves. I am a good citizen of the Jin Dynasty. I am a good person. General, please spare my life."
Several other Tianshi Tao prisoners also shouted: "We are all good people. We are forced by thieves and we are on this boat as a last resort. General, save me, general, save me."
Zang Tao said impatiently: "Whether I spare you or not depends on your performance. Let me ask you, who is this person?"
The leading guard quickly said: "This is the leader of the demon thief, Zhang Fugui. He is the captain of the chasing demon thief fleet, the apprentice of the deputy master of Hailong Hall named Li Yifan, and the incense master of Hailong Hall."
.The general of the demon thieves this time is Zhu Chaoshi, and his deputy is Lin Zihao, the master of Hailong Hall, who is also Li Yifan’s master.”
Zang Tao gritted his teeth: "Zhu Chaoshi? He is our general this time? Humph, this traitor is doing quite well."
Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Also, how many troops and ships do you have in pursuit of the fleet? Is there any backup behind it?"
The guard cried sadly: "General, you are just a pawn, how do you know these military affairs? However, Zhang Fugui once said that the dozen or so ships under his command have already been engaged in the battle ahead, except for Huizhou.
Besides Lin Zihao’s fleet, there should be no backup for the pursuing fleet. Originally, he wanted us to take control of those Huanglong warships, and then drive the Huanglong warships to join the battle."
Zang Tao nodded: "Very good, you can go and accompany your leader!" He said, with a flick of his wrist, he picked up the back of the knife under the guard's chin, and immediately turned it to the tip of the knife, and cut the guy open in one fell swoop.
The remaining disciples wanted to jump up and run away, but they were all killed on the spot by Zang Tao and the sergeants around him. Their bodies were quickly thrown into the river, along with those of other demon thieves.
Like a corpse, the sound of falling into the water is endless.
Zang Tao cut off Zhang Fugui's head with a knife, then flew up and kicked his body into the river. A military academy behind him shook his head: "General, there was an order in the expedition to the west, to kill enemy troops who surrendered.
want…………"
Zang Tao waved his hand: "Zhengxi has always been known as a benevolent person, but we must also understand the objects of benevolence. These three Wu old thieves are extremely vicious. They committed heinous crimes when they were in Wu. The commander-in-chief once
I spared their lives and gave them a chance, but in the end these thieves still refuse to change their ways. Today I just want to give them a happy life. If we fall into their hands, dying quickly will be a luxury."
The soldiers around him nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and Zang Tao's eyes flashed coldly: "Okay, now that we have taken control of these warships, we will leave two enemy flag bearers to send a signal to Li Yifan in front, and say,
We are ready here, and you can join the battle now. Also, let the brothers on the shore also issue orders and tell General Tan that we have succeeded here."
On board the Jiangning, Tan Daoji looked at the distant river bank, above a dark forest, with three green fireworks rising straight into Yunxiao. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Very good, where is Taozi?"
We succeeded, the ambush fleet has cut off the enemy's retreat."
Hu Lin'er's face was still very nervous just now, because the battle ahead has entered a fierce stage, and more than ten rear guard Huanglong warships have also rushed into the battle group, together with the previous dozen second formation Huanglong warships,
Besieged by more than 60 Tianshi Tao warships.
Especially the swordsman disciples of the General Guards carried by the Qianlong warships, have now become the main force on the battlefield, forming a sword formation in groups of two or three, fighting against the heavily armored Beifu.
The soldiers of the army were fighting together. From time to time, some people were hit by swords and fell into the water screaming. Almost as far as the eye could see, all the decks were stained red with blood and liver and brain. The fire was soaring into the sky, and the sound of killing was loud.
Oh, what a cruel fight.
Tan Daoji nodded lightly and said to Hu Lin'er: "Old Hu, send the order, Mao Xiuzhi's flanking fleet is going to attack now and surround the enemy's central warship!"
