Datang: An eight-year-old master of the bar, he gave everyone a blow at the beginning

Chapter 250
"Your Majesty has said so, of course I have no problem with Scar Li!" Scar Li quickly agreed to Hou Shi'an's request.

The two hit it off immediately, ready to give Yuchihuan a catch.

There were dozens of armored soldiers on the shore, they were all generals sent by Hou Junji to protect Hou Shi'an.

The Hou family will soon protect Hou Shi'an from the banks of the Yellow River.

"Listen everyone, sneak attack on the Five-Year Ship at midnight!"

Scar Li didn't return to the merchant ship until Hou Shi'an disappeared into the night to arrange the arrangement of water thieves.

The other water thieves nodded one after another and said they accepted the order.

For a moment, the crowded merchant ships were silent. They were all recharging their energy and preparing for a sneak attack on Yuchihuan in the evening.

This time Scar Li prepared more than 100 water thieves who are good at water warfare for the assassination!

……

Daning County, Matouguan Ferry!
In the evening, it was quiet on the Wuya boat, occasionally a patrolling Yuchi's family would walk around.

Xue Rengui and Cheng Chumo wore helmets and battled on both sides of the deck of the five-tooth boat, and they looked around Matouguan ferry covetously!
They patrolled so carefully to ensure Yuchihuan's safety.

Whoa!
Suddenly, the sound of water flowing from the lower reaches of the Yellow River, followed by the sound of someone stirring the oars, woke up everyone on the Wuya boat.

Although there are no hidden reefs in the waterway of the Yellow River, merchant ships generally sail during the day and anchor at night to rest.

Now that someone is driving a merchant ship to Matouguan in the middle of the night, it's hard for people not to be vigilant.

"Everyone is in position, be careful of assassins!"

Cheng Chumo yelled, and immediately went to wake Liu Rengui and others who had fallen asleep!
In a moment, all twenty generals and sailors were in their positions.

Even the twenty sailors and generals led by Liu Rengui got up and got ready for the battle.

"what happened?"

Liu Rengui came to the front of the deck of the Wuya boat and scanned the lower reaches of the Yellow River, but unfortunately the river was pitch black and he couldn't see anything.

"Liu Rengui, the boat below didn't light its navigation lights, it must be a water thief!"

Cheng Chumo informed Liu Rengui of his opinion.

Liu Rengui echoed, "It makes sense!"

Xue Rengui nervously stood at the door of Yuchihuan's room holding a horizontal knife to prevent the assassin from attacking.

It was the first time for He Shi to see so many armored soldiers, she hid in the cabin with pale face, not daring to show her head.

Squeak!

After half a stick of incense, Yu Chihuan walked out of the room slowly, holding ten small Li flying knives in his hand, ready to test the limit of his flying knives.

"See Yuchi's little governor!" Cheng Chumo, Xue Rengui, Liu Rengui and the others saw Yuchihuan coming out, and they all bowed their hands to pay homage.

"Liu Rengui, you put the catapult on the Wuya ship with kerosene bombs, and today we will attack the enemy ship with fire!"

Yu Chihuan immediately issued a combat order to Liu Rengui.

The last time the Wuya ships used ballistae and ramming horns, they thwarted a sneak attack by the Turkic killers.

There is no chance of using the trebuchet at all!
But let the enemy taste the power of the trebuchet tonight!

"The last will obey!"

Liu Rengui is a lieutenant of the Navy, and he is very familiar with Wuya boats. He quickly placed the kerosene bomb on the rocker arm of the trebuchet, ready to attack enemy ships at any time!

"All lights off!"

In a blink of an eye, the deck of the Wuya boat was pitch black. Through the moonlight, Yuchihuan saw that a merchant ship was indeed coming from the lower reaches of the Yellow River!
But ancient people like Liu Rengui had night blindness, so they haven't seen the shadow of the merchant ship yet!
"Liu Rengui, use your trebuchet to attack the merchant ship a hundred paces away in the upper left corner!"

"Little Commander Yuchi, are you sure the enemy is so close at a hundred paces?"

Liu Rengui was not sure whether there was a problem with Yuchihuan's judgment.

"Liu Rengui, you just need to follow my orders!"

Yuchihuan was a little angry, after all, he was the governor of Zhongzhou, and Liu Rengui could only carry out military orders!

"Yes!" Seeing Yuchihuan getting angry, Liu Rengui broke into a cold sweat. In order to appease Yuchihuan, he simply put ten kerosene bombs on the trebuchet basket at the same time!
The petrol bomb was then ignited by the sailor.

All of a sudden, the five-tooth boat was as bright as day!Very conspicuous in the dark.

With the help of the firelight, Liu Rengui finally saw clearly the merchant ship that the water thief boarded a hundred steps away.

Even the pirates on the merchant ship can be seen clearly.

The incoming assassin was indeed as Yuchihuan said, just a hundred steps away from Wuyachuan!
Liu Rengui admired Yu Chihuan's judgment to the point of admiration.

"emission!"

Surprised and delighted, Liu Rengui immediately ordered the sailors operating the trebuchets to attack the oncoming merchant ships.

boom!
With the loud noise of the five-toothed ship's catapult, ten kerosene bombs swept towards the merchant ship a hundred steps away.

And the pirates staying on the merchant ship stared at the ten kerosene bombs flying over and hid in the cabin one after another!
"How did Yuchihuan and the others locate our merchant ship so quickly?"

Scar Lee stood in the cabin and stared at the swooping fuel bomb, worried!

The merchant ships in the Tang Dynasty were all made of wood, so they were most afraid of fire attack!
If it is stuck by kerosene bombs, even if the merchant ship is not burned, it will be scrapped!
And those water thieves crowded on the deck looked ashen, they knew that they were going to be finished tonight!

Kerosene bombs are not cold weapons. Once they stick to the kerosene bombs, there is no other way to survive except diving to escape!
boom!boom!
The next moment, ten flaming kerosene bombs hit the deck and cabin of the merchant ship in unison!

Fire oil was sprinkled on those water thieves in an instant, and a raging fire followed.

A gust of cold wind blows, and the deck of the merchant ship is ablaze, and everyone is engulfed by the flames!
Dozens of water thieves were set on fire, and they crowded out frantically, trying to escape by jumping into the Yellow River.

As the water thieves jumped down the Yellow River one by one, only the corpses of some water thieves who had been trampled to death remained on the deck.

As for those water thieves who are still alive, they can only watch helplessly as the flames envelop their bodies!

Suddenly, screams and cries for help resounded throughout the Matouguan Ferry.

The yamen servants stationed at Matouguan Ferry saw the merchant ship on fire, and immediately ran over to watch the excitement.

When they confirmed that the other party was a water thief, they all bent their bows and shot arrows to attack the water thief in the river.

Some yamen servants who wanted to fight the fire not only failed to save people, but did some things that made people worse.

For example, a water thief has climbed onto the shore, and he thought he was saved.

In the end, he was directly blocked by two yamen servants with a sword!
Even the heads were cut off by the yamen servants to receive rewards.

Datang not only beheaded the enemy's head on the battlefield to get silver rewards!Yamen slaves to suppress bandits can also be beheaded for meritorious service.

All of a sudden, the Matouguan Ferry was filled with the screams of water thieves. They couldn't believe that these government servants dared to join the war and trampled on them.

And Scar Li hiding in the cabin is not having a good time, the firelight on the deck has been connected to the cabin.

If the people in the cabin don't evacuate, they will be buried in the flames in half an hour!

"Everyone evacuate the cabin!"

Scar Lee finally decided to abandon the ship and flee!

The rest of the water thieves filed out, ran out of the cabin one after another, and escaped in a small boat!
