The waterway in Jinan City is guarded by iron gates, and there is also the navy reorganized by Xu Huai, the Ruan brothers and others, as well as the Shen Luozhou, a Mohist ingenuity similar to a submarine, which is good at drilling ships underwater, and Jiuyang on land.
Shenzhong, Gongsun Sheng and other generals guarded it, and even Gao Lian and Gaofeng led 600 corpse soldiers and nearly 10,000 troops could not conquer it.
It is really not easy to capture this strong city. Even Gongshu Yanran can only use water mines to get rid of Shen Luozhou first. The generals don't understand, what clever plan can Master Wu have?
Wu Song didn't say much, and immediately ordered the soldiers to get off the boat and go to both sides of the Yellow River to cut down trees, cutting down only those trees where the two of them hugged each other. Guan Sheng suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Could it be that the imperial master wanted to use the method of cutting down with blocks to destroy Jinan City?"
Navy troops? It’s indeed a good strategy!”
Lin Chong shook his head at the side and said: "The method of cutting down the blocks is easy to break the water army, but it cannot break the sinking snail boat. The sinking snail boat can dive to a depth of several feet, and the big wood can only float on the water. If it is washed down with the current, the sinking snail boat will emerge from the water.
Passed safely. However, this move can break open the big iron gate of Jinan City, take the opportunity to rush into the city, fight for a while, and most likely capture Jinan City!"
Wu Song smiled slightly and continued to direct the soldiers to cut down trees. After cutting down thousands of large trees, he ordered the soldiers to cut the trees into three-foot-long pieces, tie them into wooden rafts, and nail a dozen three-foot-long wooden stakes underneath. Wu Song
Let's test one first and let the big boat pull it into the water. The raft is floating on the water and all the wooden piles below are soaked in the water, just like a rake used by a farmer to plow the field.
When farmers plow the fields, people stand on the rake, and the iron pestle under the rake moves forward under the ground, smashing all the dirt and debris when they encounter it. Wu Song used this principle to plow all the way from here to the Yellow River waters of Jinan.
Let's see which Shen Luozhou can escape!
When Lu Junyi, Guan Sheng and other generals saw it, they were all impressed.
The army worked day and night to build hundreds of rafts and threw them into the water. Ten of them were tied into a ball and connected with ropes. The flood control officer observed the speed of the water and shouted: "Report to the Imperial Guard, the speed of the water is not fast enough to wash away the rafts."
Let’s go down to Jinan! We have to wait until it rains and heavy water pours upstream before we can take action!”
Wu Song smiled and said: "If we wait until it rains, Xu Huai in Jinan City will probably notice our actions and take protective measures, which will be more than worth the loss. Where is Chen Sixi?"
A strong man immediately stood out from the group of warlocks, holding a bamboo tube in his hand. He bent down and cupped his hands and said, "National Master!"
"The men you arrange to teach are used to making trouble on the river. There are five or six men who enjoy the imperial salary in my Tianji Pavilion. These people are all under your command, whether you make trouble or use demons and monsters to transport them.
Get these rafts down to Jinan City for me! It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but today it all depends on the magic of your platoon brothers!"
Chen Sixi grinned and said: "Thanks to the Imperial Master for favoring me, my Paijiao can enter the dragon vein cultivation, all because of the Imperial Master's attention, how can I not repay you with my life? Where are the brothers?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a few strong men jumped out from the crowd. They were all the leading priests in the Paijiao. Because they had been floating on the water all year round, they had developed thin waists and thick chests, like an inverted triangle. They were all leaning on bamboo tubes.
He bent down and saluted and said: "I have seen the imperial master and the great platoon leader!"
Chen Sixi was high-spirited and said with a smile: "Thanks to the Imperial Master for valuing me and putting me in high regard, today is also the day for me to show off my teachings and show off my power. You leaders should do your best to win a jackpot for the battle of Jinan! Come and carry the sacrificial animals!"
Several platoon men came forward carrying cattle and sheep. The cattle and sheep were dressed in red and green and dressed like brides, and they were all moaning.
The men left their cattle and sheep by the river. Chen Sixi and six high priests of Paijiao kneaded the soil into incense, knelt down and prayed by the river, and shouted: "Sacrifice to the water god!"
With him taking the lead, the six leaders knelt down and worshiped, shouting: "Sacrifice to the God of Water!" and prayed in a low voice.
Suddenly a big wave rolled up in the river, and all the cattle and sheep were swept into the river. The seven people threw the bamboo tubes in their hands and fell into the Yellow River, turning into purple bamboo as thick as one person. The seven people stepped on the bamboo tubes with bare feet.
He rolled up his trouser legs to his thighs and activated his magic power. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew up the waves, wrapping the raft forward.
Chen Sixi stood on the bamboo, stepped on the bamboo tube, played music, and sang: "Hey——, I won't pay back my life..." The high priests in the queue took out gongs and drums one after another, and beat the gongs and drums on the river, and followed them with shouts.
Drink: "Hey, hey, hey, hey! The big waves are fighting for food and clothing, hey, hey, hey, hey!"
"Making trouble in Jinan—"
"Hey, hey, hey! You can gain fame with swords and guns, and you can become a god by wrapping your body in horse leather——"...
The wind and waves on the Yellow River gradually rose, and the speed of the wooden raft became faster and faster. The high priest of Paijiao went away singing and dancing. The soldiers quickly boarded the boat and put the soldiers down on the Yajian. Nearly a hundred Yajia and nine tower boats followed the river.
Down below, the swords and guns were neatly arranged.
Wu Song called Shan Tinggui and said: "Last time you lost a large ship, this time I will give you another large ship to fight against the pirates. What should you do if you lose it again?"
Shan Tinggui, the general of Shengshui, was overjoyed when he heard this. He touched one knee to the ground, clasped his fists with his hands, and said loudly: "My subordinates raised their heads to see you!" Wu Song waved his hand, and Shan Tinggui left happily.
Wu Song also summoned Wei Dingguo, the general of divine fire, and said, "You are good at attacking with fire. You also led a large ship and a thousand soldiers. After landing, you set fire everywhere and conquered Jinan. You will be credited with a great achievement!"
Wei Dingguo was overjoyed and said, "How dare you risk your life?" He also boarded a building boat and led a thousand gunmen to prepare. Wu Song also asked Lu Junyi, Guan Sheng, Lin Chong, Yang Zhi, Zhang Qing and his wife, and Hu Yanzhuo to each take a building.
The ships waited for the city of Jinan to be broken, and then rushed into the city to fight. Ling Zhen was also asked to be ready to bombard Jinan at any time, while Ruda, Li Kui and other infantrymen waited for the city to be broken and went ashore to fight.
Chen Liqing was neatly dressed. At first glance, she looked like a young general with silver armor and silver spears. She stood aside and was eager to try. Wu Song just ignored her. The little girl pouted, poked Wu Song's waist with an iron-armed bow, and whispered:
"Uncle Five, what about me?"
Wu Song still ignored her and continued to arrange the soldiers on the deck to fight. Chen Liqing's eyes were red and she almost cried. Wu Song then said: "Chen Xi is really your biological father, and I am just your fifth uncle. Who is more distant?"
Chen Liqing remained silent.
Wu Song added: "The last time you shot Liu Yongxi, no one saw it. If you shoot someone again this time, it will definitely fall into the ears of your father. Wouldn't it ruin the relationship between your father and daughter? Don't kill the enemy either.
Just follow me. If you meet Chen Xizhen, just go back to him. Then I will sever my ties with you, and the friendship between us for many years will be cut off. At most, you can shoot me to death with an arrow on the battlefield."
Chen Liqing cried loudly, turned around and ran away. Gongshu Yanran looked at him complainingly and hurriedly chased after him. After a while, Chen Liqing came back with red and swollen eyes and said loudly: "My father wants to kill me and fulfill his Taoist aspirations.
Fifth uncle tucked me in, coaxed me to sleep, and carried me on the street, but he didn’t. When I see my father again, I will definitely sever ties with him! If fifth uncle is still worried, he will chop off my head now
, I will never blink!"
Wu Song smiled and said: "Since you want me to feel at ease, why don't you worship me as your father?"
Chen Liqing shook her head and said: "Uncle is only ten years older than me, how can he be my father?" She blinked her eyes, clapped her hands and said with a smile, "Why don't you become your elder brother? It's easier to be a brother and a sister!"
Wu Song shook his head, called his wife Shi Xi, and scolded her: "How did you teach her to read? You actually taught her some inexplicable tricks!"
Madam Shi Xi curled her lips and muttered: "My slave is originally a wild man. If you ask me to teach people to read and write, I will naturally teach you a wild man..."
Wu Song summoned Chen Liqing, led her to the cabin of the main ship, pointed to the rows of books on the bookshelf and said: "Here are one hundred and eight Du Tian Bao Zhao Sutra, the supreme method of military strategists. If you practice diligently,
I will rely on your protection in the future."
Chen Liqing was overjoyed and kissed him suddenly. Wu Song shook his head and said, "You can't kiss like this again."
"We used to kiss like this when we were little, and you even kissed me!"
…
The six leading priests of Paijiao, led by Chen Sixi, rushed towards Jinan on a large raft. The strong wind blew behind them, and the waves rolled. One wave followed another. The seven people suddenly stopped singing drums and all took out a drum from their arms.
Put the purple bamboo tube to your mouth and blow it, and you will see seven streaks of white air like arrows, which are shot one mile away. Suddenly, the Yellow River is covered with fog and the river is covered with mist.
The navy in Jinan City was in chaos. There were archers shooting arrows upstairs, and there were a few scattered crossbows shooting into the fog, as well as two trebuchets.
The sinking snail boats in the Qingyun Shanshui Army immediately launched into the water, groped from the bottom of the water, and within half a mile, they suddenly bumped into the wooden piles under the raft. The wooden piles pierced the sinking snail boat, and the water poured in, and the people in the boat were
The navy couldn't find the road and couldn't get out of the sinking snail boat. I don't know how many people were suffocated and drowned!
Only a few escaped, and as soon as they surfaced, they were immediately stabbed to death with iron picks by the Yajian officers and soldiers who rushed up from behind. In the heavy fog, arrows were flying and rocks were raining, and many Yajian soldiers on Wu Song's side were also killed.
It was smashed to pieces on the spot, and countless officers and soldiers were hit by arrows. Even two of the six leading priests of the Paijiao were killed!
In the back, shadows of buildings and boats appeared in the heavy fog, lying across the river. Hundreds of cannons were fired, and there were trebuchets, thunderbolt chariots, and foot-operated crossbows on large ships, all shooting towards the city of Jinan.
The Nine Sun Divine Bell rang in Jinan City, with a deafening bang, and war drums were also beaten on the buildings and boats, which made the soul tremble. However, although the war drums sounded, they were not magical weapons, and the heavy fog in Suojiang was dispersed by the Nine Sun Divine Bell.
The generals guarding Jinan are the winged tiger Lei Heng and the beautiful bearded Gong Zhu Tong. They support Gongsun Sheng in fighting with the two brothers Gao Lian and Gao Feng in the south of the city. The generals guarding the city wall on Chen Xizhen's side are Haransheng and Gou Heng.
Being embraced by all the soldiers, they all gasped when they stood on the city tower and looked at the water of the Yellow River. They saw nearly a hundred tooth warships on the river surrounded by nine high-rise ships, splitting the waves, and the big ships and small ships were coming.
They were all officers and soldiers, and their swords and guns were so dazzling that their eyes were dazzled!
There was another big wave ahead, surrounded by a huge raft. The five warlocks behind them were naked and standing on the bamboo tubes with bare feet, inciting the wind and waves to rush towards their side of the navy. As soon as they came into contact, Qingyun was instantly blown away.
The Shanshui Army collided with people and capsized their boats. There were countless casualties!
Haransheng's face turned pale, and he said in despair: "It's over, the navy is completely over..."
He suddenly caught a glimpse of the Ruan brothers and Zhang brothers coming ashore under the protection of Xu Huai, and he shouted loudly: "Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow quickly! Protect Mr. Xu and shoot those five warlocks to death!"
Gou Heng shouted: "Pour the kerosene and set fire!" Haransheng quickly grabbed him and said angrily: "We are downstream, pouring the kerosene will set the whole Jinan on fire!"
"Then what should we do? If those crossbars hit us, they will definitely knock the Jinan city tower into pieces. If the enemy troops swarm in, who can resist it?"
Harlanson was about to speak when he suddenly heard a roar and saw a boulder weighing over a thousand kilograms being launched by a trebuchet from the ship. The target was the two of them!
Haransheng quickly pulled Gou Heng over and ran away. As soon as he ran a few steps, he saw the boulder suddenly falling down, and a big hole suddenly appeared where they were standing!
The boulder split into pieces, rolled down the tower, and knocked over a few more people!
Gou Heng broke away from his hand and shouted: "Pour out the kerosene! Quick! Even if Jinan is burned down, we can't let the warriors break in!"
Harlanson had no choice but to let him do whatever he wanted, but he saw hundreds of barrels of kerosene poured on the water of the Yellow River, dozens of torches dropped on the towers, and the river suddenly burned with raging fire!
Ling Zhen hurriedly beat the drum, causing the Louchuanya Ship to stop moving forward, while Chen Sixi and the remaining high priests in the queue summoned their magic power, controlled the raft to charge, and crashed into Jinan City!
There was only a loud bang, and the city tower was shaking under the bombardment of nearly a thousand large logs. The rocks on the tower fell, hitting the fire and water, and sparks flew everywhere!
Haransheng and Gou Heng almost fell into the water. Gou Heng quickly grabbed a bow and arrow from the corpse of the soldier next to him, and shot the arrow at the warlock in the water.
Chen Sixi shouted: "Hit me again!" He heard the sound of arrows, but saw an arrow stuck in the middle of the forehead of Lao Wang PaiTou next to him, but the arrow had penetrated his head and emerged from the back of his head. Lao Wang PaiTou shouted.
Without saying a word, he fell straight into the water.
"Crash again!" Chen Sixi looked ferocious and shouted violently. He and the remaining three leading high priests used all their magic power to pull all the rafts back and hit Jinan City again!
