Chapter 25 Kill the incense master again, the biggest crisis
Instructing the adjutant to stay on the boat and take command, he reached out and took out a wooden spear from the side and threw it out. He jumped a few feet away from the boat and touched the wooden spear that happened to fly to it. The wooden spear fell, but he used it with help.
This force once again took off into the air, flew to a warship docked on the shore, jumped to the bow of the ship several times, and with a long clear roar, rushed from the bow of the ship to the water village.
To shoot a man first, shoot a horse, and to capture a thief first, capture the king. The target he chose was Wang Yuanshi, the leader of Tongjiang Water Village and one of the thirteen incense masters of the Dragon King Gang, the ‘Tongjiang Water Monkey’.
Wang Yuanshi obviously didn't recognize Ye Chen as the killer who was ranked second on the gang's most wanted list. Seeing how young he was, he laughed wildly, picked up the two short spears beside him and rushed out.
"Well done!"
Although there was a slight accident, Wang Yuanshi didn't have the courage to rush out, but this played into his heart. He raised his hand from a distance and struck a palm with cold air.
Feeling the cold air rushing towards his face, Wang Yuanshi's face changed slightly, but he still raised his right hand without hesitation, and pointed the short spear at his palm.
Ye Chen immediately flipped his palm, turned his palm into a claw, and grabbed the tip of the short spear. Wang Yuanshi immediately changed his move from stabbing to sweeping. His short spear was not a traditional spear, but a strange weapon with two edges on the tip.
, very sharp, and can also be used as a knife. At the same time, he swung out the short spear with his left hand and pointed it at the opponent's waist.
"Sword Two!"
The black sword in his right hand was connected, and the strong internal force swung Wang Yuanshi's spear and hand away. With a flick of his wrist, he stabbed the sword straight into the palace.
Wang Yuanshi's expression changed, and he moved his right hand forward, but Ye Chen would never let go of this opportunity. His left hand turned into a claw and swung down again, hitting his right arm in front of him, and there was a "click" sound of the bones breaking.
When the sound was heard, Wang Yuanshi's expression changed drastically, and in the next second he fiercely stabbed his opponent's palace with the spear in his left hand, in an attempt to encircle Wei and save Zhao.
But Ye Chen would not give him a chance at all. The black sword in his right hand flashed with cold light, and it struck Wang Yuanshi's left arm as fast as lightning. Three drops of blood flashed in an instant. Feeling the stinging pain in his arm, he knew something was wrong and used all his strength.
He flew backwards with all his strength and shouted at the same time:
"kill him!"
Only then did the guards around him react. About twenty guards rushed towards Ye Chen.
But this time Ye Chen was not alone. Seeing that he was about to be surrounded, a team leader shouted loudly:
"Brothers, the captain has wounded the thief's head. Everyone, hurry up."
After speaking, a large group of soldiers rushed forward and blocked all Wang Yuanshi's guards.
What Ye Chen wanted was this effect. There were no interferers. He took one step forward and caught up with Wang Yuanshi. He struck down with his sword like a sword. The strong internal force gave the sword terrifying power. Wang Yuanshi, who struck with just an ordinary sword, staggered.
Take two steps back.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
After slashing down with three swords in a row, Wang Yuanshi retreated more than ten times in embarrassment, and finally hit a large wooden pillar, and was decapitated by him with a convenient sword strike.
Lifting Wang Yuanshi's head, he jumped to the height of the stake and shouted:
"Wang Yuanshi is dead, why don't you surrender?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the morale of the water bandits in the water village plummeted. More than half of the water bandits turned around and ran away. The remaining half surrendered and the other half were still resisting.
Those who escaped were left alone, those who surrendered were taken aside and guarded, and those who resisted were surrounded by a large army. Ye Chen rushed into the encirclement with his sword. As soon as he raised the sword in his hand, a water bandit fell to the ground. Cold light flashed and screams could not be heard.
.
No matter how stubborn he was, he was just an ordinary water bandit. With his current strength, he would never let him use a second sword with one sword. He slaughtered most of the two to three hundred people by himself, and the blood flowed like a river.
As for those who surrendered, Ye Chen had them all tied up and thrown into the boat, and then questioned one by one. Those who had done little evil could survive, and those who had done more evil were separated. They would definitely die. They were all dragged to the bow of the ship to expose their evil deeds.
Kill them one by one.
Although he wanted potential points very much, he couldn't bear the reputation of killing everyone on sight. Except for those killed in battle, those who surrendered could only kill those who committed evil, and those who were not evil could only be spared.
Otherwise, you can temporarily gain a batch of potential points by killing them, but the battle will be difficult in the future, and no one will dare to surrender.
After a battle ended, his men happily searched for supplies in the water stronghold, sent people back to Jingzhou City to report the news, and quickly repaired the water stronghold. They will be stationed here temporarily.
Standing at the highest point of the water village, Ye Chen pressed his hands on the guardrail wooden posts and seemed to be looking at the river. In fact, there was a light screen in front of him, which showed that he now had 543 potential points, which had increased by more than 200 points after a battle.
.
But these are still not enough. It is estimated that it is not even enough for the earth-shattering inner strength and mental method in the derivation plan. It will take thousands of potential points to achieve it.
But this is not a big problem for him now. The next day, before the water stronghold was repaired, he set out with a warship carrying hundreds of soldiers. He wanted to clear out the nearby small water stronghold.
The largest Dragon King Gang Water Village nearby is Tongjiang Water Village, and the even bigger ones are Dongting Branch in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and Jiujiang Branch in the lower reaches. Tongjiang Water Village is right in between the two. Wait until the two branches know the news before sending a fleet over.
No matter what, it will take ten days and a half, which is enough time to clear out the nearby water fortress.
Dragon King Gang, Jiujiang Fenduo Water Village.
Three men in black clothes entered the water stronghold. Less than an hour later, an order was issued, and the entire water stronghold began to boil. A few hours later, a fleet of fifty or sixty large ships and ordinary ships was formed.
The fleet was assembled and began to sail up the Yangtze River.
The same situation occurred in the Dragon King Gang Dongting Branch. Almost on the same day, the Dongting Branch army gathered and left Dongting Lake and went down the Yangtze River.
When Ye Chen received the news about the appearance of the Dragon King Gang fleet, it was already the third day. He was encircling an ordinary water village. When he heard the news, he immediately returned to Tongjiang Water Village and happened to see the huge fleet on the river. He only glanced at it.
The decision was made to retreat.
There are not many enemies, probably only two or three thousand men. The key point is that the opponent actually has more than a dozen gates equipped with artillery on the ship. This is a regular warship used for water warfare. They don't have any. The only way to defend the water stronghold is to die, and they will be attacked by artillery.
Blast to death alive.
They found out early that the Jiujiang Squadron was still some distance away from them. In addition, most of the supplies had already been loaded onto the ship. They would directly abandon the materials in the water village and board the ship. Soon the fleet evacuated the water village to the other side of the Yangtze River.
To sail, we only need to cross the Yangtze River and dock. The north of the Yangtze River is the territory of the imperial court, so we can get support. At worst, we can abandon the ship and go ashore. At most, we will not need the ship and materials. Anyway, our lives can be saved.
However, fate is not as good as fate. As soon as the fleet left the water village, a fleet came from upstream. It must have guessed their plan and sailed directly to the center of the river, lying in front of them, cutting off the road across the river.
If they want to get through, they must break through this fleet.
If it was normal, Ye Chen might try it, but now that he was under attack from both sides, he could only seek death.
