Chapter Volume 4 10
Feng Yu Jiu Tian Vol 4 Chapter 10
General Zhuo ran always worked in high efficiency, only needed one day effort already had all the ships chained. Li troops were not good at water war, if the ships were split from one another, the ship would easily shook around, affecting the war, yet by connecting the ships together to become a huge aisle and battle platform, as long as the ship could reach the riverside, it was like set up an instant bridge.
Such terrific tactic just made people amazed.
The General Zhuo ran personally monitored the process of the chain ship, immediately reported to Ruo yan.
"Report to Great King, the ships had all been connected by the steel chain," opened the curtain and walked into the tent, General Zhuo ran looked so excited, casually mentioned," After the soldiers knew Great King's incredible trick, they all praised and admired Great King, The soldiers are thrilled in excitement."
Ruo yan also changed a brand new armor, the armor was the result of craftsmen's hard work, sophisticated crafting the armor, hung the sword around his waist, seemed so prestigious.
"Do Xi Rei soldiers show any movement?"
"The enemy's soldiers just take a glimpse of our chain ship from the other side, give off the endless chaos, Now Rong tian must have a headache to deal with us."
"Just let Rong tian has the headache," Ruo yang sneered, turned around and asked," How's Duke Ming now?"
There was immediately a guard walked in the tent, knelt down and answered," Duke ming was resting in the King's tent, already ordered fifty guards to serve outside the tent, when Duke ming walked out the King's tent, they will immediately inform Great King."
Ruo yan nodded, asked," The medicine that Miao guang prepared, does Duke Ming drink it?"
"Report to Great King, the medicine already serve to Duke ming to drink. Moreover, those two Xi Rei maids also have been sent to serve Duke ming."
Ruo yang slowly nodded his head, seemed to think of something.
General Zhu ran said," If Great King feel worry, why don't just go to see Duke ming?"
"Don't need," Ruo yan said," The great war will soon begin, i can't be distracted. Although Duke ming has already surrendered, but he has always been loyal to Rong tian, i'm afraid he will feel regret when the emergency comes, and try to harm me. You go back and watch him, Duke ming and the two maids's movement must monitored, don't ever loosen up your guard."
"Yes!"
The two sides' flags were fluttering in the sky, indicated the war would begin soon.
Li kingdom's side, had already been seen some bog ships being chained together on the riverbank, also connecting the small ships on the big ships side, become a magnificent spectacle.
A team that consist of hundreds of people, running back and forth on the board to familiarize themselves on this special battle site for tomorrow morning's battle.
The King's tent was so magnificent, the tent was originally unventilated, but according to the wishes of Feng ming to open two windows on the ceiling above, you could see the other riverside through the window.
The sky was getting dark, Chiu yue carried candle and came inside the tent, put on the table. The beautiful face showed less naughtiness, showed the unusual sadness, with teary eyes sneak a peek at Feng ming that sat in the corner of the tent.
"Duke ming, the day is getting dark, let's get something to eat."
The delicious meal being served in front of Feng ming, Chiu xing served the dish one by one, softly said," Oh right, you didn't even eat something from this morning, even the medicine was being secretly poured away."
"Duke Ming......"
Feng ming stared at the dimming light from the other riverside, not talking. Chiu yue and Chiu xing had heard about Rong tian's reappearance, yet already forgot about Feng ming, looked at Feng ming's silence, not even shed tears, yet felt fear inside, the two sisters felt uneasy and looked each other, gently knelt on the both side of Feng ming.
"Duke ming, please say something."
"Duke Ming, Duke Ming, please don't be like this," Chou xing shook Feng ming's sleeves, almost cried out," Great King surely will remember Duke ming. Although i haven't seen Mei Ji, but she won't be able to compare to Duke ming, how can Great King love her?"
Feng ming kept looking through the window, being shaken by Chiu xing and chiu yue, just suddenly looked down," What are you two doing? why your eyes so watery?"
"Duke Ming, you don't be so sad," Chiu xing rubbed her eyes and cried," You are not eating, not talking, even not eating the medicine......"
"Silly girl, Miao guang's medicine got sedative in it, will sleep away after drinking it," Feng ming touched their heads, pulling them up from the ground.
Chiu yue took the opportunity to put the bowl on Feng ming's hand," If drinking medicine will make Duke ming sleep, but it's okay for the food to eat right? hurry eat something."
Feng ming put the bowl on the table, his eyes still looked into the distance," I will eat the food later."
Chiu yue and chiu xing frowned and looked at each other.
Chiu xing moved closer to Feng ming's side, carried the bowl, scooped a small spoon of rice to Feng ming's mouth.
Feng ming failed to break through these little two maids, only could open his mouth, yet his eyes still stared to the other riverside.
"What Duke Ming looking at?"
"Just looking at something that i want to see."
The food little by little being served into Feng ming's mouth, the two maids' worry for a whole day finally could be put down a little bit.
Chiu xing made a eye gesture with Chiu yue.
Chiu yue slowly nodded, carefully said," Duke Ming.."
"Hn?"
"Are those chained ships outside being used for war?"
"Of course."
"Those guards outside were talking nonsense, They said....it's Duke Ming who teach Ruo yan to connect the ships by chain....."
Chiu xing interrupted from beside," And even said Chain ship trick."
"That's right, it's me who teach it."
The spoon served to Feng ming's mouth suddenly tilted, the hot soup poured on Feng ming's cloth.
Feng ming turned his head," What happened?"
Chiu yue and Chiu xing's eyes wide opened, they dazed in disbelief. For a long while, Chiu xing suddenly knelt down, pulling Feng ming's sleeves, her voice quivered," Duke Ming, you side to Ruo yan?"
Chiu yue also knelt down, raised his head and asked,"You don't want Xi rei anymore? you don't want Great King anymore?" suddenly cried out.
Feng ming quietly looked at the two crying maids, he already experienced the six months under Ruo yan's hand, had already not been the old childish-self he used to be, smiled, his eyes showed a deep light of wisdom.
"It's Rong tian who don't want me anymore, not me not wanting him anymore," Feng ming sighed deeply, helped them to stand up.
He turned his body, used his forefinger to into his glass of water. Wrote on the table,' The walls have ears.'
Chiu yue couldn't help but gently say "Ah", hurried cover her own own mouth.
Chiu xing turned her eyes and said," If the Great King really betray Duke Ming, then Duke Ming is too wronged."
While she was talking, Feng ming already wrote dorn his words again on the table,' I believe Rong tian."
Chiu xing's eyes showed some excitement, held tight Chiu yue's hand, said softly toward Feng ming," No matter what happens, we will always be by Duke ming's side."
"The accompany me to enjoy the riverside scenery," Feng ming sat back, took along the two maids to look at the other riverside.
Nightfall, Li troops' side was gradually seen bonfire everywhere, so lively, while in the other riverside was wrapped in darkness, no movement.
Chiu yue felt so strange, exchanged a puzzled look with Chiu xing.
"Chiu yue, Do Li troops have ignite the bonfire?"
"Yes."
Feng ming seemed agitated, the hands holding the two maids were trembling, turned to Chiu yue," You see, there is no even a single fire ignited."
Chiu yue felt strange, looked puzzling at Feng ming.
The three kept looking outside the window, Feng ming seemed to be increasingly happy, his lips unconsciously smiled, sincerely filled with happiness, Chiu yue had been nearly six months hadn't seen Feng ming's happy face, the moment she saw, it was like the past lively, cute, and carefree self of Feng ming came to live again, Chiu yue got excited, her eyes immediately got teary.
Feng ming suddenly stood up.
"Tomorrow morning, Ruo yan will start to attack, the small and big ships are connected together, can form a huge pathway, and then..." His mouth casually finding a topic to talk, pull the two maids to went to the table, wrote quickly with his finger using water:' If there will be a major fire ignited, you two must immediately escaped.'
Looked at Chiu yue and Chiu xing's blank face, Feng ming smiled brightly, playfully winked.
The wind blew inside from the window suddenly felt a little weird, they looked at the window at the same time.
Only could see the sea of fire outside.
On the river surface, a burning wooden ship, like a demon crawlingup from hell, were rushing toward Li troops' chained ships with high speed.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A huge sound rumbling, the burning ship crashed on the chained ships。
"Ah!" Chiu xing Chiu yue saw this scene, suddenly exclaimed.
Feng ming's face showed happy expression, softly said," Here it comes," among those people, only him could expect that Xi rei would quietly hide in nearby, poured and filled the ship with kerosene and woods, then ignited it to crash Li troops' chained ships.
This is one of the most famous strategy from the 'Three Kingdom' history, the Chained ships, Fire ignited chained ships.
The wind raging on the river, the wind helped the fire to spread fast, the fire immediately fierce burning. Li troops was in chaos, the wailing scream heard from the river, in a blink of an eye became hell.
Ruo yan and General Zhuo Ran were discussing tomorrow's attack in the tent, they shocked to hear the rumbling sound, they knew something bad was happening, hurriedly got out from the tent. When they looked up, all they saw just a sea of fire.
The guards beside them rushed to their feet, screamed," Great King, Xi Rei's troops did night-attack, fire...fire...fire everywhere!"
"Extinguish the fire!" Ruo yan draw his sword, and strike at a fleeing soldier, deeply shouted," Don't panic, the fleeing soldier will be killed immediately in this moment! Gather all to extinguish the fire!"
At the moment, another guard came and reported," Report to Great King, those fire ships are filled with buckets of oil, not only couldn't be extinguished, the fire also spreading to our chained ships."
"Extinguish the fire!"
"Great King!" The guards sorrowfully shouted," The fire is too big, can not be extinguished anymore! Great King please immediately order to retreat!"
The fire has continued spreading to the tent in the riverside, everyone caught in a sea of fire. The screams constantly could be heard, many of the aflame Li troops jumped into the river one by one, the drowing sound was constantly be heard. The guards circled beside Ruo yan, drew the swords and stabbed around the terrified fleeing soldier, everyone shouted," Great King has an order, not allowed to escape without permission, incite the soldiers' mind, immediately extinguish the fire!"
Ruo yan standing still, saw the soldiers were in chaos, like fell into Asura Hell, his eyes flashed fiercely, hatefully said," Duke Ming." Turned around, drew the sword and ran toward the King's tent.
Walked on halfway, some changes suddenly happened, a horse neighing sound, clatter of a horse's hoofs, the rushing sound appeared, Ruo yan and General Zhuo ran shocked, turned and saw the wounded guards rushed toward them," There is an ambush."
Ruo yan walked forward one step, the dark thick eyebrows frowned," Wehre is the ambush? how many troops? who lead the troops?"
"from the back road, on the river, two-way attack from the back and front, the amount of the toops still not so clear, the one who lead on the river is the ship with 'Chu' word flag."
General Zhuo ran deeply analysed," The one leading the attack from the back must be Yong yin King's troops, their number of soldiers is not big, can't block Li troops' back way. It's weird, why the one who leading on river is not Xi rei's flag?"
Ruo yan suddenly flashed a thought, suddenly shuddered, gritted his teeth and said," Rong tian already sneaked into the camp, Heh, you want to take back Duke Ming?"
The hatred suddenly rose, he rushed to the King's tent.
General Zhuo ran quickly stopped him," The situation is critical now, please Grear King immediately command the troops, otherwise, Li Kingdom will be in danger."
"After i kill Duke Ming, we will counter-attack!"
In the King's tent, Feng ming, Chiu yue, and Chiu xing still stayed in there.
The scream of million people, everybody was in panic, only the three of them were stay so calm.
The door suddenly being opened, a person rushed in while holding a sword. Feng ming slowly turned his head, showed a little stunned," Why is it you?" and stopped smiling," Yet my prediction if not Rong tian, then it will be Ruo yan."
"You actually could be so vicious, setting such a deadly trap to harm ten-thousands of my Li troops!" Miao guang had already been lost her previous calmness, step by step approaching by holding the shining sword in her hand."
Chiu yue and Chiu xing realized something bad, standing in front of either side of Feng ming to protect him.
Feng ming separated the two maids, instead he was approaching Miao guang.
"I'm loyal to Xi rei, you two brother and sister must have known about that." Feng ming lifted his head," If i'm afraid to die, just because of a little affair to harm Xi rei, then how can i worth appointed as Duke Ming?"
"Rong tian has changed his heart, why do you have to help him?"
"Princess probably already forgotten, i prefer the people of the world betray me, than me betraying the people of the world." Feng ming sadly looked at Miao guang, suddenly sighed heavily," Even though Rong tian betray me, but i can't harm him. Moreover, he may not really betray me."
Miao guang looked deeply into Feng ming's eyes, as if her heart could be pierced by his eyes, her body was trembling. She remembered the first time meeting Feng ming and discussing about him rather being betrayed by others, about british woman, all one by one, overwhelming her heart.
A 'Bang' sound, the sword fell to the ground.
Chiu yue rushed forward to pick her sword and pointed at Miao guang.
Miao guang stared at Feng ming," Then you....why do you not escape?"
Feng ming strangely said," Doesn't princess want to kill me?"
"You know i can't kill you, then why you even need to ask?" Miao guang turned her body away, sadly said," I hurt you many times, this time just count as i return you. When we meet in the future, Miao guang won't be lenient. You hurried go, Brother King knew this is your dirty trick, must be on his way here."
Feng ming smiled bitterly," I don't want to go, but escaping outside is more dangerous than staying here. King's tent is eye-catching, Rong tian will find me first than Ruo yan. When he comes, i don't have to worry anymore." When talking about Rong tian, the handsome face, completely giving trust and gentle vibes.
Miao guang was discourage just now, but after seeing Feng ming's smiling face, she suddenly got an idea, she already loved Feng ming for a long time, but it has never been exposed, coincidencely there was in a chaos at the moment, all kinds of emotions that had been burried deep suddenly revolted out, silently staring at Feng ming, her eyes flashed a determination, she got her hand into the sleeve.
Feng ming had finished his motive, standing while smiling.
Unexpectedly, woman's heart was deep like a sea, could change suddenly.
Suddenly two flash of lights just flew through, Chiu yue and chiu xing fell on the ground, the sword on Chiu yue's hand fell from her hand. Feng ming stunned and turned back, seeing each of their body was being punctured by two gold needle, don't need to say, it must be Miao guang's doing.
"Princess?"
Miao guang was very agitated, the soft voice became rising voice," I really don't understand, what's so good about you? Rong tian wants you, Brother King wants you, even I have been deceived and couldn't kill you."
Miao guang step by step approaching, she punctured him with the golden needle in her hand. Feng ming was having weak body for a long time, how could he avoid Miao guang's lightning skill, he screamed out a little, his whole body immediately felt weak, fell on the ground.
Miao guang although had a small and slim body, but her strength was not small, carrying Feng ming and coldly said," I don't want to kill you, and i don't want you to be killed by Brother King, but.....i don't want you and that damn Rong tian together too." after speaking, she gritted her teeth, her eyes showing hatred.
Feng ming fell upon Miao guang, realizing that Miao guang's expression seemed unusual, apparently being provoked, he shouted inside. But his mouth couldn't speak, body couldn't move, just like the day when he was being seized by Miao Guang and in a complete hopeless state. He was cursing himself to be so careless, and felt remorse.
Miao guang lifted Feng ming, took advantage of the chaos to slip out of the King's tent, in one glance seeing Ruo yan so angry while holding sword rushing this direction, immediately turned to the other side and detoured to the back of the tent, there were so many soldiers in chaos an panic, the voice of war could be heard everywhere, no one noticed her as princess and the Duke ming in his arm.
A neighing horse ran across from the side, there were many wounds in the horse's body, it seemed that the owner has died. Miao guang was fast and agile, grabbed the reins in one hold, she had learned a lot of a variety of techniques with the masters, beside the art of golden needle, the technique of horse-reining, less than a moment, this frighten horse had calmed down.
Miao guang horizontally placed Feng ming's weak body on the horse's back, tied with a rope.
"Horse ya horse, took Feng ming to a far far away place, don't let Brother King found him, also don't let Rong tian found him. What a pity, just go to the farthest place.
Feng ming smiled bitterly inside, although Miao guang seemed smart and intelligent, yet in critical time she showed out her childish side, putting him on the horse's back to be taken away, but he's afraid that he couldn't even get out from here had already been stabbed to death by the panic soldiers or burnt to death by the fire, He screamed 'unlucky' inside, meeting such a baffling little girl.
Miao guang yet didn't know what he was thinking inside, felt unwillingly to let Feng ming go, she stroked Feng ming's face, and suddenly whipped the horse.
The horse neighing loudly, carrying Feng ming and bolted away.
Feng ming suddenly jolted on the horse's back, watching the horse bolted in the chaos among the panic soldiers, passing through the burning tent one after another, the soldiers were screaming around.
His life was in danger!
The crazy horse crashed into the crowd of fighting soldiers, there were several times the sword flashed on top of his head, Feng ming only could close his eyes, he only could submit to his fate, if he could speak, he would shout Rong tian's name everywhere, but he couldn't say a single word, could only watch the Xi rei's and Li kingdom's soldiers fighting around him.
It's no problem died in Li troops' hand, but in case died in Xi rei troops's hand, that would be so wronged.
Fortunately, he was lying on the horse's back, and no movement, everyone would probably thought him as a dead soldier, no one cared about him, the constantly passing sword from his side was not really hurting him.
The horse bolted away, miraculously rushed out of the battlefield.
