Chapter 24 The east wind rises and thousands of stars fall
A few minutes ago, thousands of kilometers away, the Gupu River section of Zhengbei Province.
Wu Liang sat in the cockpit of the survey ship with squinted eyes, looking attentively at the ancient book in his hand.
This is an unofficial biography he just bought.
Although most of the contents recorded in it are bizarre, in terms of era, they are very close to the long-lost fault era.
I just saw the wonderful part, before he could think about it.
Yang Hongguang, the student next to him who was in charge of the helm, suddenly interrupted his thoughts.
"Teacher Wu, we are in trouble!"
He adjusted his glasses with thick bottoms.
Wu Liang saw Yang Hongliang glancing out the window suspiciously, with a confused tone.
"It's late at night in midsummer, why is there inexplicable fog in the river?"
"..."
"It's foggy?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Liang subconsciously glanced out the porthole.
As expected, what I saw was a vast expanse of white.
Even if the small boat can shine two searchlights hundreds of meters away, there is nothing that can be done about the thick fog outside.
"Weird thing!"
Frowning, Wu Liang subconsciously felt that the weather tonight was a bit strange.
Fog in the river mostly occurs in winter.
It is late at night in the middle of summer, and the temperature has not changed much. How could such a heavy fog appear inexplicably?
Frowning, he was about to ask Yang Hongguang at the helm to move the boat closer to the shore.
In Wu Liang's ears, there was a hint of deep horn sound.
"What is this sound?"
Wu Liang's eyes were stunned, and he thought it was a boat in the distant river sounding its whistle to warn nearby ships.
But the next moment.
It's like there are people playing hard from all directions.
Wu Liang's ears were instantly filled with the desolate and simple sound of the horn.
“There are so many boats nearby??”
Before I could exchange glances with Yang Hongguang in front of me.
Several pieces of equipment on the operating table all sounded the "di-di-di-di" alarm sound.
Among them, the display instrument of the drag sonar was created from scratch, and countless huge shadows appeared in an instant.
"What happened? Something went wrong with the instrument?"
Looking at the huge dark color blocks, Wu Liang just stood up and walked outside the cabin door.
In front of your eyes, a bizarre scene appeared?
"What is this??"
With his eyes widened, Wu Liang even felt that he was dreaming for a moment.
It was right in front of him, more than ten meters away.
A high black wall is slowly discharging terrifying waves in the river.
According to common sense, at this distance, the seven or eight meter high waves can even overturn Wu Liang's surveying boat.
Wu Liang could not penetrate the thick fog with his naked eyes.
At this time, this scene, which can be called a dream on a summer night, suddenly appeared in his eyes.
As his eyes moved upward, Wu Liang could see a hint of the entire black wall.
"This is a... giant ship??"
The shock in my heart has not diminished by half.
Wu Liang felt that the sky above his head suddenly lit up.
Almost for an instant, it was as if the thick fog could no longer obscure his eyes.
The southeast wind with a bit of coolness blew gently.
In the slightly hazy clouds overhead, large areas of terrifying dark red suddenly lit up.
Along with the thunderous explosion, countless brilliant red star showers fell from the sky.
For a moment, even the entire sky was filled with dense red meteors.
"What the hell?"
Looking at the shocking scene of stars falling overhead.
Wu Liang heard Yang Hongguang next to him scream with trembling teeth.
"Teacher! Look at the picture of the drone!"
He threw himself down beside Yang Hongguang and took a look.
Wu Liang felt like he had lost almost all his strength.
At this time, what was displayed on the small mobile phone screen... was a bizarre high-altitude aerial photography.
Get rid of the unreasonable fog.
Inside are densely packed, numerous black giant ships closely connected with iron ropes and covered with large planks.
It even made Wu Liang think he was watching the latest science fiction blockbuster.
"Is it an illusion? Or a mirage??"
His pupils suddenly condensed.
Wu Liang heard an extremely gentle chuckle with a hint of chicness in his ears.
Just this chuckle.
You can even flash into your mind a romantic figure with a feather fan and silk scarf and a jade-like gaze.
"The east wind rises, and thousands of stars fall."
"Tonight... we can defeat Cao's army!"
"..."
"Can Cao's army be defeated tonight?? What do you mean??"
As Wu Liang's eyes widened.
The terrifying meteors in the sky that almost dyed the clouds hundreds of miles away with a dim red color also trailed a chilling red trail from the sky.
Amidst the terrifying roar that almost shattered the eardrums.
The footage captured by the drone has turned into a complete purgatory on earth.
Connected by countless iron chains, it is a terrifying giant ship comparable to an aircraft carrier.
In front of the red meteors falling from the sky, they are like flowers under hail, completely vulnerable.
Almost just a blink of an eye.
The magnificent fleet, which stretched for countless miles, was plunged into a sea of fire.
Countless tiny invisible figures jumped from the burning giant ship into the river like dumplings.
Even in the river next to Wu Liang, there were many figures wearing black armor, frantically flopping for help.
"Ah!"
"Hurry and save people!!"
I reflexively threw two lifebuoys into the water.
Wu Liangcai's expression froze, and he watched helplessly as his lifebuoy passed through those figures.
"This is...an illusion??"
There was a sudden chill in my heart.
Wu Liang could only watch as several figures with faces full of fear and despair sank into the water one after another, leaving only a string of gurgling bubbles.
The expressions on these people's faces are so real.
The sense of terror and despair when he was about to die even made Wu Liang stop breathing for a few seconds.
Amid the violent "cracking" sound of burning.
In the dense fog nearby, seemingly endless firelight lit up at some point.
Looking around, there are burning giant ships everywhere, as well as desperate cries of death.
"This, this is too terrible!"
Trembling all over, Yang Hongguang, who was beside Wu Liang, just wanted to stutter and continue speaking.
But like the teacher beside him, his attention was attracted by a broken flag floating to the edge of the boat.
The background color of the flag is dark red.
In the middle, there is a big Chinese character written with flying dragons and phoenixes, showing off the sharp edge - Cao.
Even though Wu Liang is not proficient in calligraphy.
Just looking at that word, I couldn’t help but want to praise... What a spirit.
Look at the broken flag full of traces of smoke and fire and take a closer look.
Wu Liangfu stretched out his hand to fish out his heart, and actually forcibly picked up the flag that was soaked by the river water.
"This, this is what happened..."
Reflecting the surrounding firelight and dark clouds that almost reached the sky, Wu Lianggang looked at the broken flag that was slightly heavy in his hand.
I heard a thunderous roar from the depths of the fire far away.
"The Prime Minister has an order!! Abandon ship!!"
Then, there was the "rumbling" sound of intensive horse hooves.
From a drone's perspective.
In the fire scene in the distance, there is a dark cavalry galloping on countless giant ships.
Rushing straight towards the vaguely invisible dark shore.
