Chapter 138

When the generals heard this, they looked at each other in blank dismay.

What Chen Youliang said is very reasonable. Of course, the iron chain can resist the opponent's pack of wolves.

But once the opponent uses fire attacks, the connected warships will immediately turn into a sea of ​​fire floating on the lake, making it impossible to escape.

The counselor who had just made this suggestion was immediately speechless when asked by Chen Youliang. He did not even dare to speak out, for fear that he would be dragged out and cut down the sacrificial flag accidentally.

At this time, a tall and thin Taoist priest wearing a gold-rimmed Taoist robe on a white background came out, and he smiled and made a Taoist salute to Chen Youliang: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty. The poor Taoist watched the sky at night, the purple stars flashed, and the emperor came. The sky is clear and the sky is clear. If the enemy wants to use fire to attack, they must rely on the wind. But now Zhu Yuanzhang's army is at a disadvantage. If they really want to use fire to attack, they can only be burned. Own poor little boat."

The person who spoke was Chen Youliang's sorcerer, and no one knew his origin.

It's just that at that time, anyone who claimed to be a king or emperor, according to the usual practice, had to find such a Taoist priest who understood the astronomy and stars. At that time, these things were not called astronomy, but the art of emperors. Like the Eastern Suzaku star flashing, it proved that the East could There was a rebellion or something.Chen Youliang didn't believe these guys at first, but because of the rules, he had to seal such a Taoist priest.But now, Zhu Yuanzhang is dead, and he is invincible in the world. Even what this Taoist said sounds so reliable.

Chen Youliang raised his head and looked at the weathervane on the deck, which, as expected, was pointing in the direction of Zhu Yuanzhang's fleet.He nodded slightly: "Okay! Send the order down, and the boat will be connected with iron chains! Launch a general attack on Zhu Yuanzhang's troops in three days!"

That night, Liu Bowen received a secret letter, unfolded the letter, and wrote a few words neatly written in lowercase on it: "Jicheng. Fire Attack."

Seeing Liu Bowen's slightly raised lips, Zhu Yuanzhang's frowning brows instantly relaxed: "It's done?"

Liu Bowen nodded: "It's done."

The faces of the generals in the cabin showed relief.

"Prepare the altar and straw boat secretly! In three days, we will fight the final battle with Chen Youliang!"

"Yes!" The generals took the order and left, preparing their own preparations.

The shame brought about by Zhang Dingbian's surprise attack today must be doubled by Chen Youliang!

The next day, the armies of both sides spread out their formations on the lake, each taking precautions, but neither had any intention of attacking.

The sun rises in the east and sets slowly in the west.

For a whole day, not a single warship from either side went to battle.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Chen Youliang was preparing to tie the boat with the rope, but Chen Youliang didn't know what medicine Zhu Yuanzhang was selling in the gourd.

According to common sense, when Zhu Yuanzhang was killed, Xu Da, Tang He and others either rushed to avenge Zhu Yuanzhang desperately with their lives, or led them to surrender honestly.How could it be so quiet, honestly arming, and doing nothing?

After waiting for a day, the suspicious Chen Youliang decided to send two warships to test the situation at dawn tomorrow to see what was going on.

But on the third day, before Chen Youliang's warship set off, a warship from Zhu Yuanzhang's fleet rushed out with a white flag on it, and on the flag was written a row of big characters in Zhu Dan: "Don't ask others, only Kill Chen Jiusi!"

Before Chen Youliang met Peng Yingyu, he was also a poor man with no status, and his name was Chen Jiusi.What he taboos the most is that others call him by his name directly. That name belongs to the humiliating past and is absolutely not allowed to be mentioned by others.That kind of mentality is like a bald person tabooing others from saying "light" or "brightness". (Zhu Yuanzhang also did this later, and he was also a bald donkey who was a monk.)
Chen Youliang was furious, pointed at the warships rushing out of the formation and shouted: "Who is the enemy general?"

"Your Majesty, it seems to be Ding Pulang!"

"Ding Pulang!?" Chen Youliang was startled, he didn't expect Ding Pulang to rush out like this.

The loyalty is the most important among the four King Kongs of the Ming religion. Chen Youliang and them formed a bond with Jinlan, but for the sake of power, he killed Zhao Pusheng and Zou Pusheng, forced Ding Pulang and Fu Youde away, and committed a big taboo among their brothers.

Now that Ding Pulang sees Chen Youliang on the opposite side, his heart is full of the desire to avenge his brother.

Zhu Yuanzhang once explicitly prohibited him from fighting, but now, he finally couldn't bear it and rushed out.

Speaking of kung fu and bravery, Ding Pulang was not much worse than Zhang Dingbian, but he still failed.

Taking the head of a general among millions of troops is a technical job, not just courage.

The most important of these is surprise.

You see, Guan Yu killed Hua Xiong and Yan Liang Wen Chou. He relied on the speed of his horse. Before Hua Xiong and the others could react, he rushed over and left with his sword in hand.

But Ding Pulang couldn't control that much. As soon as he pulled out the white cloth, everyone knew that his target was Chen Youliang.

The generals in the Han army were not blind, so when they saw Ding Pulang approaching, they naturally wanted to intercept him.

Ding Pulang didn't say hello to Zhu Yuanzhang before he acted, and the boat he was driving was slow. Even though he was brave and invincible, and killed two generals in a row, he was sunk by the company and the boat before he saw Chen Youliang's face. up.

When the news reached Zhu Yuanzhang, he was silent for a long time, looked at Fu Youde and said, "You are the only one left among the Four King Kongs of the Ming Sect. The general still cherishes it."

Fu Youde nodded: "Marshal, don't worry. I will definitely live to witness Chen Youliang's death!"

Ding Pulang's suicide attack this time, although he failed to hurt a single hair of Chen Youliang, it still achieved unexpected results.

In Chen Youliang's eyes, a general's recklessness in the battle undoubtedly showed from the side that the opponent's internal affairs were in chaos, and even a unified opinion could not be reached, so he sent a general to fight.And according to his understanding of Zhu Yuanzhang, even if Zhu Yuanzhang had a fever and became confused, he would never do stupid things like making Ding Pulang charge.Once Zhu Yuanzhang died, the opponent's army was completely vulnerable.

After experiencing Ding Pulang's incident, Chen Youliang only thought that the other party was in chaos internally and had no energy to organize a battle, so he simply started his plan of connecting boats with iron chains at ease.

Finally came the day of the decisive battle. Chen Youliang stood at the bow of the ship and looked at the warships that could not be seen. No stress.

On the deck, the flags fluttered for hundreds of miles, which was magnificent.

Chen Youliang smiled and looked at the weather vane on the bow, it was fine and the wind was smooth.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang, today, completely destroy the army you have worked so hard to build!
With an order from Chen Youliang, the contiguous warships drew anchor and set sail.

Zhu Yuanzhang's army also swung their oars, carrying a boat full of oil and hay, and sailed towards Chen Youliang's water giant.
