Chapter 309: The Ode to the Yellow River (Part 8)

Chapter 309: Yellow River Fu (Part 8)

This canal ship was loaded with more Mongolian Yuan soldiers than the previous one, and most of them were not aware of the water. When the ship capsized, more than half of them were turned upside down below the river and suffocated to death.

A small half of those who responded quickly dived to survive before capsizing, but they didn't know how to take off their armor first, and just leaned their necks down and rushed to the rescue. The remaining three naval generals on the large canal ships had no time to save people at this moment. They quickly adjusted the bow of the ship and ran straight downstream, for fear of running slow down, following the footsteps of the robes on the two large ships in front.

This move is really fatal.

Originally, the Huai'an fleet was concerned about the artillery on the cannons and did not dare to get too close from the front and the side. Now that they saw the opponent revealing their butt, how could they not catch the fighter plane? They immediately chased them from the left and right sides, and used the rifled cannons on the inner side of the ship to bombard the opponent in an indiscriminate manner.

At less than fifty steps, the stability of the rifled cannon trajectory was fully demonstrated. On average, three or five shells could hit one round, and two or three shells could completely destroy the canal ships that were not originally built for combat purposes. They kept spinning on the river surface and sank in a blink of an eye.

"Surrender, surrender." After two consecutive canal ships on the outside of the main channel were sunk, the general on the third canal ship suddenly felt happy and risked being killed by artillery. He carried a white inner robe to the deck, "Surrender, surrender, I am willing to spend money to redeem myself, and ask the Huaian army to give high a hand."

"Surrender, surrender." The escorts, escorts and soldiers on the deck had already lost the courage to struggle and survive. Suddenly, they saw a glimmer of hope for life and immediately responded in a mess, "Surrender, surrender, we are willing to spend money to redeem our lives and to redeem our lives. Please ask the grandpa opposite to us to raise his hands and give us your hands."

"Give me your life, spare me your life, I'm not bad guys." Someone took off his helmet and kept waving.

"We are willing to spend money to redeem our lives, and ask the grandpa opposite to us to show mercy!" Someone grabbed everything around him that could be used to attract attention and swayed back and forth, boots, underwear, socks, headscarves, and all kinds of things. As long as you have time to take them off, you will have everything.

"Compassion, compassion." In an instant, the entire canal ship became a vegetable market, and colorful things kept waving in the air.

The gunners on the Huai'an Army's flagship were unclear and their movements slowed down instinctively.

Several other warships quickly approached, seized favorable positions, and were ready to give their opponent a final blow.

"Stop shooting, keep the ship under the cannon." Zhu Chongjiu did not let the navy generals make their own decisions this time, but took the lead, picked up an iron trumpet from his personal soldiers, and shouted at the soldiers on the observation deck.

"The general manager has an order, stop shooting." Wang San, the lookout hand, immediately waved a black flag, and used a red cross pennant to pass the order accurately.

"The main manager has orders, stop shooting." "The main manager has orders, stop shooting." "The main manager has orders, stop shooting." "The main manager has orders, stop shooting." "The main manager has orders, stop shooting." "The main manager has orders, stop shooting." All deputy captains, including the flagship, accurately received the signal and issued the order to the gun cabin as soon as possible.

"Boom." "Boom." Two artillery pieces that had no time to react were adjusted in time, and shot out two huge water columns directly in front of the remaining canal ship.

The other reloaded artillery aimed at the waterline of the sidewalk of the cannon under the operation of the gunner, preparing to completely restore it to a pile of wood when the other party has any abnormal movement.

"Order them to stop the ship, get off the ground, and throw all the shells and gunpowder into the water." Zhu Chongjiu quickly took over the role of commander-in-chief, held up the iron horn, and continued to issue orders.

"Stop the ship, get anchored on the ground, push the shells and gunpowder into the water." Xu Hongsan and others opened their throats and stopped drinking at the trembling Mengyuan soldiers on the canal boat.

"Stop the ship, anchor down the ground, and push the shells and gunpowder into the water." Huai'an soldiers on several other warships also opened their voices and repeated the orders over and over again.

Under the muzzle of ten black holes, the Mongolian Yuan soldiers on the canal ship dared to have any extra thoughts. They immediately followed the order and pushed all the projectiles and gunpowder boxes around the cannon into the water. While pushing them, they also waved their headscarves, shorts, and footwear to the surrounding Huaian warships, for fear that they would kill them because they were too slow.

"Let them throw all the weapons into the river." Zhu Chongjiu searched carefully on the deck of the canal ship with a telescope and issued a second order carefully.

"Drop the weapons in the water." "Drop the weapons in the water, otherwise you will be killed." Xu Hongsan and others repeated the order in unison.

Since they had chosen to surrender, the Mongolian Yuan soldiers on the canal ship did not dare to disobey. They threw spears, bows, swords, shields and other objects into the water like broken shoes without hesitation.

"There are also poles, crossbows, and catapults on the ship. If there is one, they will be removed and thrown into the water." Zhu Chongjiu thought for a while and ordered his opponent to continue disarming, "Otherwise, sink immediately."

The order was soon passed on to the canal ship. The soldiers of the Mongol Yuan, who had already despaired, carried out cleanly and neatly, and dismantled all the equipment that might cause misunderstandings, smashed them to pieces, and destroyed them in a blink of an eye.

"Let them put down the boat, the general, the deputy general, the team officer, and the team officer come over to row together." Seeing the canal boats destroy their martial arts, Zhu Chongjiu nodded with satisfaction and gave a loud order.

"My chief general has an order, and he is in charge of the general, deputy general, escort the team officer, and the team officer will row a boat together to listen to the situation." The soldiers of Huaian were arrogant and ordered their opponents with their throats.

It is said that since Zhu Chongjiu started his army, he never killed prisoners after every war. Therefore, when the generals at all levels of the Yuan army on the canal ship heard the five words "My family's chief manager", they immediately knew that they would definitely be able to get ashore alive this time. Without hesitation, he put down the small boat for escape, jumped up, and paddled in his own way to surrender.

Seeing that the other party was so obedient, the Huai'an soldiers were embarrassed to let them go, so they immediately put down the rope ladder, connected the four of them to the deck, and then "surrounded" them with weapons and brought them to Zhu Chongjiu.

"The general Hu Liji, I asked the general of the crime to see the general manager. I didn't know before, and I was on the boat. I accidentally offended the powerful force. I also asked the general of the general to forgive me. The general of the crime would definitely be tied up in the next life to repay the kindness of not killing." The general of the Cao boat was a semen man, who looked very clever. Before he could walk to Zhu Chongjiu, he bowed far away, and his forehead hit the deck.

His deputy generals, the team, followed suit, and knelt down together, kowtowed to Zhu Chongjiu, who was protected by Xu Hongsan and others, and called for forgiveness.

Zhu Chongjiu called them over to find out whereabouts of Sesame Li, Zhao Junyong and Xu Da, so he had no intention of humiliating each other. He waved his hand gently and ordered loudly, "All up, you should have heard that Zhu never killed someone who put down his weapons."

"The Grand Chief Manager's name of mercy, even if he is on Jinning Road, he has heard of it." Hu Liji kowtowed again and responded loudly, "So, the general of the Grand Chief Manager knew that he was not his opponent just now, so he quickly asked the general of the Grand Chief. If it were someone else's troops just now, the general of the Ninth General would rather fight to the end than put down his weapons and wait for them to kill with a knife."

"Rareless." "Bold." Xu Hongsan and others scolded loudly, but their chests were raised high, feeling extremely glorious on their faces.

Although this is not the first time Zhu Chongjiu heard people praise him for his compassion, he still felt very helpful when he spoke from the mouth of the enemy general. He smiled and continued to instruct, "Get up and talk, there is no need to kneel down. My Huaian army will not raise the ceremony of kneeling and worshipping. Don't worry, as long as you answer the questions of this general manager truthfully, this general manager will never harm you. As well as your subordinates on the canal ship, you will also send him ashore to escape."

"Thank you, the Grand Chief Manager, for your compassion." Hu Liji and others were overjoyed, kowtowed a few more times, then stood up and promised loudly, "Just ask, if we dare to hide anything, we will definitely not die in this life."

"That's good." Zhu Chongjiu smiled, with a very kind expression on his face. "Hong San, please pick two people to ask on the back deck. I'll ask here, and then let's get together to check the confession. If there is a confession on both sides that doesn't match, just send them on the way. Anyway, they have said just now that if they deceive each other, they won't die well."

"Yes." Xu Hongsan opened his mouth and laughed, walked forward, pulled up the deputy general and the team, and walked to the back deck.

Hu Liji and others never expected that Ju Fuzi, who looked full of spring breeze, was so ruthless that he was so ruthless that he knelt down again with a "thump" and grabbed the ground with his head. "The chief manager is merciful, the last general, the last general, the last general, the last general, the last general, the last general, the last general, know that you are a Bodhisattva's heart and will never dare to bet on the lives of the brothers in the ship."

"Oh, if you don't say it, I almost forgot that there is a boat of people over there. Sanyi, pass on my order and ask them to come over four more clever ones to accept the inquiry from the general manager. If the three parties' calibers cannot be unified, they will kill them all, and then let them send eight people over."

"Yes." Zhang Yi was so impressed that he immediately picked up an iron trumpet and walked to the side of the ship, giving the prisoners the latest instructions. After a while, another small boat sent the centurions of four warriors over in case of emergency.

Seeing this, Hu Liji and others dared not be lucky anymore. They immediately confessed everything Zhu Chongji asked about, just like pouring beans on bamboo tubes.

It turned out that these people were all the explorers of the Ma Chi Army on Jinning Road, the Secretariat of the Yuan Dynasty. Their main task was to prevent Bu Wang San from going north. Some time ago, the general Zhang Liangbi of Beisuo Hongshuo turned against him and sold half of Henan Mansion Road to the court. They received a new order. Under the leadership of the deputy Wanhu Zhou Hafeng Buhua, they took the grain ship to Suiyang to support Chahan Tiemur.

After arriving in Suiyang, Chahan Timuer and Li Siqi dig the Yellow River and flooded the 130,000 Red Turban Army. Their team with the canal ships directly turned into a temporary navy. Together with the water bandits who came to make accomplices for the tiger, they were specifically responsible for searching for the remnants of the Red Turban that were washed away by the flood.

However, the area affected by this man-made disaster was too vast. He searched for a few days like a needle in a haystack, but he still couldn't catch any "big fish" that was famous. Seeing the water situation getting smaller day by day, he was anxious, so he listened to the suggestions of several old water bandits and went down the Yellow River to go to the vicinity of Xuzhou to see if there were any advantages to take.

"Did Na'er pass by near Mangdang Mountain on the way?" Zhu Chongjiu frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, there is passing." Hu Liji's voice instantly became smaller, he lowered his head and responded evasively.

"Have you ever found something nearby?" Zhu Chongjiu immediately noticed that the other party's expression was strange, raised his eyebrows, and his voice suddenly turned higher.
