Chapter 79
If Murong Yanchao died unjustly, then Zhang Yuanhui was almost the same as him, and even more unlucky. He was killed by a group of little kids. He was the best general in Hedong. He died before he could succeed. He was frustrated!
Fu Zhaoxin looked at Zhang Yuanhui's head repeatedly, grinned, and smiled brightly.
You should know that more than ten years ago, his father Fu Yanqing suffered from Zhang Yuanhui's loss and never had the chance to take revenge. This time, he died at our hands. When he went back, he could stand up his chest even when he saw his father!
Before he knew it, Fu Zhaoxin had already drawn himself into Ye Hua's gang. After fierce battles, everyone was obviously much closer than before. Carrying guns together is definitely a shortcut to enhancing friendship.
Fu Zhaoxin reflected on the battle, but actually killing Zhang Yuanhui was not a blind cat to meet a dead mouse.
For example, Ye Hua put some cattle and horses outside to attract Zhang Yuanhui, but he did not enter the ambush directly, but sent people and horses to take the lead with his banner to attract attention. If he commanded, he might have ordered an attack. In that case, at most, some ordinary soldiers and generals would be killed, and there would be no chance to catch this big fish!
From this point of view, Ye Hua is so calm and has some skills!
Fu Zhaoxin brought people happily to report the results of the battle to Ye Hua, but found that Ye Hua was commanding a few soldiers, constantly turning over the stones and searching for the grass. What amazing thing did this guy do?
Fu Zhaoxin waited without a sound, and suddenly, a soldier raised his arms excitedly and shouted: "Catched, caught!"
In his hand, there was a snake about three feet long, with a blue-black body that kept bent and struggling.
"Eunuch Ye, is this the snake you are looking for?"
Ye Hua glanced at it and shook his head immediately.
The one he saw was yellowish, and the one was blue and black, which was completely different. The soldier threw the snake into the grass and continued to catch it. Ye Hua suddenly realized something terrible. There was more than one snake in this mountain!
Maybe there is a large group!
Thinking of this, Ye Hua's scalp was numb, and he also felt that an excellent general should not have anything to be afraid of. Even if he was afraid, he still needed to overcome it. But the problem was that it took time to overcome it. Before you overcome it, you should just leave quickly!
He ordered Fu Zhaoxin to clean the battlefield carefully, and then Ye Hua hurriedly rode his horse and fled in panic.
...
"Hahaha!" Fu Zhaoxin knew that his stomach hurt, "I'm not afraid of the fiercest Northern Han, but I'm afraid of snakes. I turned around and told my third sister to go and let you scare my sister. When I go back, I'll scare you once! Hahaha!"
Fu Zhaoxin was fluttering, cleaned up the battlefield, and concentrated the seized spoils. Only Zhang Yuanhui's head was tied to Wang Tingyi's belt and refused to hand it over.
The blood dyed the clothes red, and Zhang Yuanhui's hideous and unwilling face formed a strong contrast with Wang Tingyi's honest smile. The silly boy wanted to go home immediately and let his father take a good look at his skills.
Fu Zhaoxin and Wang Tingyi came out of the battlefield and met with Ye Hua, but found that Ye Hua had found Chen Shi and they got together.
Chen Shi sat on the stone, and Ye Hua was still riding a war horse. With the cleverness of the horse, if a snake approached, he would definitely react.
"Huazi, it's not okay to be afraid of snakes when fighting outside. You have to eat them when you are hungry! The snake meat is fragrant, why don't I catch one for you!"
Ye Hua said with a dark face: "Let's talk about the snake in the future. Let's talk about why the Yellow River is broken at the moment?"
"This is the matter..." Chen Shi suddenly jumped up and was filled with righteous indignation, "Liu Chengjun, that bastard, he is too bullying!"
It turned out that Liu Chengjun gave Yang Jiye a letter, and he called Yang Jiye my son at the beginning. His words were full of sarcasm, saying how Yang Jiye was humble, how he called him the adoptive father, and asked him to surrender quickly, and reiterate the joy of family life... Finally, Liu Chengjun said that he would fight with Yang Jiye on the bank of the Yellow River so that he could see the difference between father and son.
Recognizing the thief as his father is Yang Jiye’s most heartbreaking past. Liu Chengjun tried his best to stab the knife, how could he not be angry?
Yang Jiye immediately agreed to the decisive battle, but he did not stupidly wait for Liu Chengjun to cross the river. Yang Jiye concentrated his bow and crossbow and prepared to attack a half-cross to teach Liu Chengjun a lesson.
However, Yang Jiye did not expect that the other party played a gambler. Liu Chengjun's main force came, but sent Zhang Yuanhui to build a floating bridge with a sheepskin raft 30 miles upstream, with 3,000 people crossing the river quickly and directly into Yang Jiye's rear.
Fortunately, the cavalry led by Chen Shi discovered that while blocking, he notified Yang Jiye.
Yang Jiye knew he was deceived and immediately retreated, while Liu Chengjun took the opportunity to cross the river and chased him relentlessly.
The two sides fought hard and suffered great losses. Yang Jiye was killed, but Linzhou's troops were far inferior to those of the opponent, so he could only fight and retreat.
But if Zhang Yuanhui was killed, the situation would be much better!
"Without this old guy, Liu Chengjun is alone and can't help but keep Linzhou. Huazi, you have made another great contribution!"
Ye Hua frowned. He would not be blindly optimistic. The Northern Han Dynasty is not worth mentioning. The problem is that there is still a Khitan behind him. It has been delayed for a long time. What if the Khitan sends troops?
"By the way, you said the Northern Han army built a floating bridge with a sheepskin raft, but it's true?"
"It's true that their food is transported from the pontoon bridge and stored on the shore."
Ye Hua pondered for a moment and had an idea.
"Stone, let's burn the floating bridge! The Northern Han Army's retreat route was cut off!"
He did it as soon as he said that Ye Hua immediately greeted everyone and said his thoughts. These guys were so excited! They all applauded.
They all forgot that if they were dozens of miles away, it was Liu Chengjun's army. If they were discovered and caught in a siege, the consequences would be terrible.
Although Ye Hua knew it, he was more willing to fight. He had to seize the fleeting fighter opportunity on the battlefield and attack the weakest links of the enemy. It was completely worth taking some risks for this.
After running for more than a day, Ye Hua and his men finally appeared on the bank of the Yellow River. Their location was about 20 miles upstream of the pontoon bridge.
For a period of time, Chen Shi often moved on both sides of the Yellow River, and his environment was very familiar, and he successfully avoided the scouts of the Northern Han Dynasty.
"Huazi, the river channel here is narrow and the water flows very fast. It takes a long way to reach the position of the floating bridge before the water flow can slow down."
Ye Hua nodded. He just needed to flow faster!
I quickly ordered the collection of sheepskin rafts.
After finding more than 20 pieces in one go, Ye Hua asked someone to open the sheepskin and pour it into the fish oil for ignition. Unfortunately, there was no strong tinder oil, otherwise the effect would be better. I must prepare some when I look back.
In order to increase the power, a lot of firewood was loaded on the sheepskin raft and fish oil was also poured on it.
I put it down in the middle of the night.
The turbulent water flowed, rolled up a sheepskin raft, like an arrow.
On the other side, Zhao Kuangyin and Gao Huaide took 10 modified bed crossbows and touched a mountain. This place was less than 1,600 steps away from the floating bridge, within the maximum range of the bed crossbows.
With the help of the moonlight, they could even see the civilians who were still traveling on the pontoon bridge. They transported food and weapons across the Yellow River and temporarily piled them on the west bank of the river, high, like a hill.
Whether on the west bank of the river or the east bank of the river, there are northern Han people who are strictly guarding the situation. After all, they are not rich. This little food is the lifeblood and cannot be careless!
"Hehehe, these grandsons never thought that if we set fire from the river, Ye Zhijun's mind is very smart!" Zhao Kuangyin stretched out his thumb and praised.
"They may not have imagined that you didn't see the patrolmen constantly traveling around 1,000 steps at the ferry. If the crossbow arrows are not improved, they will not be able to shoot!" Gao Huaide said calmly.
"So the envoy Ye is even more powerful!" Zhao Kuangyin was proud and waited for a while, and a black thing suddenly appeared on the river surface.
"Here you come!"
Sure enough, sheepskin rafts came quickly and hit the floating bridge. The civilians who transported the baggage were shocked. What's this thing?
When they were stunned, the crossbows roared over the bed, and the arrow shaft was wrapped in oil cloth, which had already ignited. Ten arrows fell 7 in the river, one fell on the pontoon bridge, and two fell on the sheepskin raft.
In an instant, the fire broke out, and the firewood soaked in fish oil suddenly burned up, turning into a fire dragon with its teeth and claws, and pounced on the floating bridge!
