The surface of the water was red. Corpses and broken ship planks filled the entire river, wailing and begging.
The navy soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield and rescuing the fallen and injured comrades.
As for the water bandits, as long as they found that they were not dead, they would shoot them with an arrow or stab them with a spear.
This made Chu Huan very angry.
Why did the army of this era have such a bad habit? This was the labor force for digging roads in the future.
"Pass down the order. Those who are not dead or disabled, capture them alive!”
A small number of pirates who had escaped had already rushed past Baling. After passing through Baqiu, they would enter Dongting Lake.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a loud sound, the First Leader's ship suddenly stopped. The boss lost his balance and was thrown onto the wall.
"What happened? This waterway had been here for decades. How could there be hidden reefs here?”
His head was injured, and his eyes were bloodshot. It should have come from his head. Could it be that my life was going to end here today?
"Chief, there are hidden stakes buried in the water. We can't get through. The bottom of the boat is already leaking. Moreover, countless soldiers are pouring out from both sides.”A thief rushed in from outside.
"Second Brother, how did this happen? How did this happen?"
"It's over, big brother. I've let you down. I shouldn't have encouraged you to come out and snatch the grain transport ship. I'm the one who killed so many of my brothers…Brothers, forgive me, I'll take my leave first!”After saying that, the Second Head drew his sword and strangled him to death.
"Second brother, don't…Second brother, second brother…Chu Huan, I'll fight you to the death!”
Right now, the boss was gritting his teeth, his hair was disheveled, and his face was covered in blood. He looked like a malicious ghost as he roared at the pirates who had just entered.
"Go and inform the brothers that we have no way to escape today. If you want to surrender, surrender to the officers and soldiers on both sides of the river. Those who are willing to follow me, move to the middle. Today, I want to fight Chen Ping to the death!”
On Junshan Island, the water bandits were fighting to the death with the government troops.
"Third Leader, there are too many government troops.”
"Even if we can't stop them, we have to stop them. Even if we die, we have to drag a few people down with us. Go and transfer all the brothers on the island over.”
Seeing that more and more government troops were approaching the island, he was afraid that the island would be lost if this continued. He had to think of a way quickly.
"Gan Ning, do you dare challenge me to a one-on-one duel?"”
Gan Ning didn't reply. He raised his saber and slashed down at any pirates that stood in his way. When he got close to the third head, he slashed down with a force that could split mountains.
The Third Leader raised his saber with both hands to block, but Gan Ning had borrowed his weight from the air and was forced to stagger backward.
"Third Leader, the government troops are attacking from behind.”
"What?!"
Seeing the Third Leader's absent-mindedness, Gan Ning charged forward again and leaped into the air.
" Ahhhhh!!!"
A blood-curdling scream that sounded like a pig being slaughtered resounded throughout the entire Noble Mountain Island, attracting everyone's attention. The Third Leader's entire right arm and shoulder were taken off.
Blood gushed out of his wounds like a fountain. He rolled on the ground and howled in pain, his voice getting softer and softer.
Gan Ning stared coldly at the Third Leader on the ground, his body covered in blood. When the Third Leader was no longer breathing, he looked around."Stop resisting. Chief and Second Leader won't be coming back. Surrender and we won't kill you."”
.....
Huang Zhong was very excited.
Yes, he was so happy that he was flying.
Ever since he joined the army, he had been depressed and frustrated, but at this moment, he could finally vent the anger in his chest for many years.
"My lord is indeed meticulous. Let's see where you can run to.”
Huang Zhong was relieved to find that the water bandits had stopped and gathered together. He had repeatedly promised his lord that he would wipe out all the pirates. If they escaped, he would just jump into Dongting Lake.
"All troops, slow down and advance in a goose formation. Surround and annihilate the pirates.”
As the two fleets gradually approached, the pirate ship remained silent, and the atmosphere became more and more oppressive.
After the two heads of the formation passed by the pirate ship and formed an encirclement, Huang Zhong was the first to speak."Why aren't you bandits surrendering?”
"Call Chu Huan out to answer."
"Presumptuous! How can you bandits call my lord by his name?”
Calm down, calm down. He had to confirm who Chu Huan was. Today, it was either you die or I die. Taking a deep breath, the First Leader suppressed the excitement in his heart and slowly said,""Then, please come out and answer.”
"My lord is not someone you bandits can see just like that. Quickly tie yourself up and surrender. Who knows, my lord might be happy to see you one day.”
"So you won't be able to see the Provincial Governor today?”
"Why are you so long-winded? Hurry up and surrender, or I'll let you die without a burial place.”
Chu Huan was actually not here. Hmph, even if you weren't here, I would still kill you until your heart ached!
The Chief made up his mind.
"Surrender? Brothers, today, killing one is worth it, killing two is worth it, kill!!!”
A portion of the pirates jumped into the water, while the rest followed their boss and rushed towards Huang Zhong.
"Everyone, be careful. The pirates are going all out. Archers, fire arrows, don't let the enemy ships get close; Thirty people were to enter the water on each boat. The sword-shieldbearers stepped forward to cover the archers. They were ready to fight hand-to-hand at any time to stop the pirates from boarding the ship.”
For a time, locusts covered the sky, and screams filled the air. People from both sides were continuously shot and fell into the water.
The government troops had the advantage in numbers. The pirates were desperate and their swimming skills were better than the government troops. Both sides fought back and forth.
However, as time passed, the pirate ships continued to burn, and the surrounding government troops continued to approach. The pirates 'desperate momentum was gradually worn down, and they gradually turned into despair.
The Chief could only try his best to boost the morale, shouting for his ship to lead the charge.
