The snow-white waves were churning, and in the distance, Liu Wei saw a small boat overturned.

On several small boats on the lake, a group of soldiers were struggling with the large nets, wrestling with the unknown objects in the water.

The soldiers who fell into the water made a splash, and the soldiers on several other boats hurriedly reached out to pull them.

The last soldier was pulled into the boat, his legs still dangling from the edge of the boat, when a large mouth suddenly burst out of the bottom of the water and bit down on both of the soldier's feet.

Thanks to the quick sights of the other soldiers on the boat, they hurriedly dragged him into the boat.

The huge mouth fell into the water, stirring up a wave, and the small boat carrying several soldiers shook violently under the impact of the huge waves.

The water of the lake was very clear, and although the water above the giant beast was rolling in the waves, the soldiers on the boat could still see the black backbone exposed in the water.

Seeing the black backbone, the soldiers couldn't help but gasp.

The spine of the black shadow was wider than the low table, and it was as long as two or three adults combined.

Such a huge underwater sound beast, the soldiers on the boat really have never seen it.

"Brothers, take it easy!" The power of the black shadow was too great, and the officer in command of the fishing did not want to see it flee from under his nose, and shouted to the soldiers who were fighting it: "Follow it, and wait until it is tired!" ”

Hearing the shouts of the officers, the soldiers on several small boats shouted in unison, and the soldiers who rowed their oars waved their oars and rowed after the huge water beast.

Several small boats followed the water beast, and it was dragged faster than usual to swim in the water.

Liu Wei, who was standing on the shore, watched from afar at the soldiers' boats following behind a wave, knowing in his heart that the water beast had been caught in the net, and he couldn't help but be a little excited.

Wang Liu and Wang Zhen behind Liu Wei licked their lips, and their eyes looked at the snow-white waves on the lake in the distance without blinking.

After about two pillars of incense, the waves on the water finally went down.

Seeing that the waves were small, a smile appeared on the corner of Liu Wei's mouth, and he said to Wang Liu and Wang Zhen behind him: "I have already caught it." ”

Knowing that the waves were small and the water beast had lost its strength, Wang Liu and Wang Zhen did not respond to Liu Wei's words, but opened their eyes and looked at the water in the distance.

Compared with Liu Wei and others, the soldiers on the boat were even more nervous.

Needless to say, the rower is separated and waving the oars, for fear that he will be dragged by the water beast and break the net.

Those who dragged the fishing nets did not dare to be the slightest slack, and their eyes stared at the fishing nets dragged by them.

"It's too big, I'm afraid it won't fit in the boat!" The soldiers dragged the fishing nets that had caught the water beasts very close to the boat, and the officer glanced at the black body in the net, and said to all the soldiers present: "Drag it to the shore as soon as possible, if we let it slow down, I am afraid it will take some more time!" ”

The soldiers on the boats were silent, and the rowing soldiers wielded their oars harder than before.

The boat dragging the water beast was getting closer and closer, and Liu Wei could already see that in the huge fishing net in the middle of several boats, there was a huge black shadow being dragged towards the shore.

Strange to say, when this water beast was first caught, it was still fluttering so violently that it would be silent.

"Damn! How can there be such a thing in the water! The boat docked, and as soon as the soldiers pulled up the net halfway, Liu Wei scolded.

What appeared in front of him was a huge catfish with a black back and a length of three meters.

In Liu Wei's impression, this kind of catfish should only live in the south with relatively high water temperature, and the water temperature in Luoyang is not suitable for its survival at all.

As soon as he felt strange about the appearance of this catfish in the water, a past event came to his mind, which made him instantly calm down again.

When he and Tang Ji fled Luoyang, there was no water in the mountains, and they also found a wild cherry tree.

Even the trees that grow in southern China can be found in the mountains of the Central Plains, so what's so strange about this huge catfish appearing in the water?

"Your Highness, what is this?" Liu Wei recognized the giant catfish, Wang Liu, Wang Zhen and the soldiers present did not recognize it, looking at the catfish, Wang Liu opened his eyes, and said with a shocked face: "There is a monster in the water!" ”

"What weirdness? It's just a catfish! Looking back at Wang Liu, the corners of Liu Bian's mouth pulled slightly and said: "This kind of fish can only grow to such a big size, this king just feels that such a big fish can be fished out in this small lake, if it is in the river, I don't know how many such giant water beasts can be caught." ”

Liu Wei said that it was just a catfish, Wang Liu smacked his mouth and muttered in a low voice: "Such a big fish, if you eat it, I don't know how long you have to eat it!" ”

"The bigger the fish, the worse the meat!" Apparently hearing Wang Liu's muttering, Liu Wei continued: "This fish is not easy to take care of in the house, so it was handed over to the military camp, and the military quartermaster cooked it to reward the soldiers." ”

"Where are you in the barracks?" As soon as Liu Wei's words fell, Wang Zhen asked on the side.

When Wang Zhen asked, Liu Wei was stunned for a moment.

A fish, although there are hundreds of catties, but the Qin army has hundreds of thousands, and if you send it to the main army camp, I am afraid that the soldiers will not even be able to catch up with the soup.

Thinking of this, Liu Wei said to Wang Zhen: "Divide this fish into three parts and transport it to the dragoon guard camp!" ”

Among the three guards of the Qin army, only the dragoon guards had the smallest number, only more than 500 people.

This one has hundreds of catties and is sent to the dragoon guard barracks, and all the dragoons can taste it, which is much more suitable than giving all the soldiers a mouthful of soup to drink if it is not fishy or smelly.

The most important thing is that during the battle of the Qin army to conquer Huainan, the dragoon guards infiltrated the main formation of the Huainan army and killed the enemy's main general, and the credit was far greater than that of other armies.

Ordered to send the big fish to the dragoon guard camp, Liu Wei said to a guard: "Order all military camps to prepare more wine and meat today to reward the soldiers of the whole army!" ”

The reason why there is more wine and meat is also considered by Liu Wei is that if only the dragoon guards get the big fish, there is nothing in the other military camps, which also makes the soldiers feel cold.

Give them a feast of wine and meat, and the big fish will be insignificant.

The big fish was pulled away by a group of soldiers in a carriage, and looking at the carriage going to the front yard along the bluestone road, Liu Wei's brows twisted slightly.

Yu Ji made it clear in his letter that the big fish was about to surface, and the Hebei region was about to fall into new turmoil.

Earlier, there were some doubts about Ji You, because the big fish was fished out of the water, Liu Wei was convinced of him.

If Yu Ji hadn't died in the hands of Sun Ce, Liu Wei would definitely send someone to Jiangdong and take him to Luoyang, after all, it would be good to have such a person around him who could see through his fate.

Liu Wei was busy catching big fish in Luoyang City, and in the area of Hanoi, at this time, large armies were coming and going, and they were fighting.

On a hill, Xiahoudun stood on the top of the mountain, with one hand on his forehead, looking at a flat wilderness in the distance.

At the end of the horizon, a long black line appeared in Xiahoudun's line of sight.

The black line was not stationary, but leaping forward.

Getting closer and closer, when the black line was so close that Xiahoudun could see the battle flag fluttering in the wind at the forefront, Xiahoudun raised his arm and shouted to Cao Jun behind him: "The enemy army is coming, the whole army is on alert!" ”

"Roar!" With a neat shout, all the Cao army's heavy infantry held their shields in front of them, holding short spears in their hands, and their eyes stared at the black line at the end of the horizon without blinking.

The archers of Cao's army did not line up on the spot, but held longbows, set up arrows on the bowstring, the tips of the arrows pointed obliquely to the ground, and quickly ran to the front of Xiahoudun, lined up on the hillside, and waited for the enemy to approach.

As a detour and charge of heavy cavalry, the garrison stands at the end of the array.

The eyes of every cavalryman were fixed on the enemy troops who were slowly approaching the hillside.

The distance between the two armies was getting closer and closer, and when the enemy army marched to a place where the last column of soldiers and horses could clearly see the color of the armor, they stopped their advance.

At the head of this army was a general in his thirties.

The general wore a familiar bronze helmet on his head and wore gold armor, but as soon as he stood in front of the army, he was full of might.

This general is none other than Cao Cao's Zhang Yang who ordered Xiahoudun to crusade.

Cao Cao occupied Hanoi at the beginning, but because Yanzhou and Qingzhou were never peaceful, Tao Qian of Xuzhou killed his father again, and many affairs were entangled, so he neglected Hanoi and was taken away by Zhang Yang.

Standing on the hillside, hundreds of steps away from Zhang Yang, staring at Zhang Yang from a distance, Xiahou frowned, and shouted to the archers in front of him: "Wound the arrows, beware of the enemy charge!" ”

Xiahou Dun's soldiers and horses were less than Zhang Yang in number, but he was very good at choosing the terrain, and took advantage of the fact that Zhang Yang's army had not yet arrived, and led the team up the hillside.

In a condescending position, the archers on both sides shot arrows at each other, and the range of the Cao army on the hillside was much farther than that of the Zhang Yang army on the hillside.

Moreover, by choosing such a terrain, the archers could be placed at the front of the array, although Zhang Yang's army also had cavalry, but attacking from the back was a major defect of the cavalry.

Once the two sides started the battle, the cavalry of Zhang Yang's army had not yet rushed up the hillside, and the archers of Cao's army were already able to calmly retreat to the rear of this column.

The cavalry attacked from the back, and it was simply unable to exert its impact to the extreme, and once it was entangled by the enemy's heavy infantry occupying the high ground, the cavalry was almost completely unable to fight back.

Zhang Yang, who arrived at the battlefield one step later, led the army in formation from afar.

Staring at Cao Jun on the hillside, the corners of Zhang Yang's mouth twitched slightly, and he did not give the order for the army to charge.

When he came to the battlefield, he set up a formation under the hillside, without the slightest intention of attacking, and his flamboyant actions really made Xiahoudun feel a little unclear.

The two sides confronted each other, and if Xiahoudun led the army to rush down the mountain, he would have taken the initiative to give up the favorable terrain, and the geographical advantage of Cao's army would also be gone.
