"But now they've started fighting each other first,"
"In the end, wouldn't it just benefit that damned emperor for nothing?"
"How about we try going by water?"
Liu Yuan suggested,
"Even if Liangshan gains a large cavalry force,"
"I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up with these riverboats going downstream,"
"But the problem now is, where are we going to get so many riverboats?"
Du Xue said helplessly.
"We still have over two thousand people left,"
"They'll all travel by boat; even medium-sized boats will require at least ten or so."
"If it were a typical small fishing boat,"
"How can we possibly have enough without at least a hundred ships?"
"We can search the surrounding area; there are fishermen, local residents, and merchants who own boats..."
Liu Yuande was halfway through his sentence when...
He then realized his own problem.
They blocked the Qinghe River for over ten days.
The upstream and downstream regions had already learned of the upcoming major battle.
Those merchants who sailed boats,
How could they dare to get any closer!
As for the small boats of the nearby fishermen...
The Huaixi army has already looted almost everything these days.
The fishermen scattered and fled.
Where are we going to find enough small boats?
"We've really dug our own hole and gotten ourselves stuck in it!"
Liu Yuan muttered angrily.
Using fishing boats to block the Qinghe River
After that, dealing with the Liangshan cargo ships,
It was all Du Xue's idea.
This makes him angry right now.
But it’s hard to say much.
"Alright, let's do as Lao Du said!"
Duan Sanniang said helplessly,
"Alright, Lao Du, you go and reorganize the camp!"
"Liu Yuan, go and select three or five reliable brothers,"
"Tell them to hurry back to Huaixi and report the news!"
"Yes!"
Duan Sanniang, as Wang Qingde's wife,
Now that she's spoken,
Du Xue and Liu Yuan could only temporarily put an end to their argument.
They hurried off to do their respective tasks.
.....
The Qinghe River is only about twenty zhang wide.
Although the cargo ship from Liangshan was in the middle of the river,
But it's far from that shore.
It was only about ten zhang (approximately 33 meters) away.
The Huaixi camp was in turmoil.
They, of course, could see it clearly as well...
Chapter 1128 Zhang Shun Reports the News
Seeing the Huaixi military camp,
It seems like there's a major construction project underway.
Camps are being fortified everywhere.
Zhang Shun couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"What are these people up to now?"
"You want to keep wasting our time here?"
"Probably not,"
Ruan Xiaoer shook his head.
"This is Shandong territory,"
"We, Liangshan, have gained territory!"
"If we delay any longer, we'll be in trouble on the mountain..."
Having said that,
Ruan Xiaoer's heart suddenly stirred.
"Brother Zhang Shun, do you think it's our Liangshan army that's arrived?"
"So that's why this group of people hurriedly fortified their camp?"
"Considering the timing, it really is possible,"
Zhang Shun nodded in agreement.
"But now that our Liangshan army has arrived,"
"This group of people didn't run away; instead, they're here reorganizing their camp,"
"Do they have other tricks up their sleeves, or perhaps an ambush?"
"possible!"
Ruan Xiaoer patted the side of the boat.
"No, we must inform Brother Zhao and the others first."
"If it's because they've led troops to rescue us,"
"But they were ambushed, resulting in heavy losses on the mountain,"
"Then we're afraid we'll end up like Liangshan, offending people!"
"so,"
Zhang Shun looked around.
Then he said in a low voice.
"Second Brother, you are the backbone of our online army; we can't do without you,"
"I'll go and deliver the message!"
"It's right to deliver the message, but it's still daytime,"
Ruan Xiaoer asked,
"There are those men patrolling both sides of the river."
"What if they find out..."
"Don't worry, Second Brother. With my swimming skills, I can stay in this water for a day or two without any problems,"
Zhang Shun laughed.
"I plan to swim upstream from here,"
"Although the upstream river channel was blocked by that group of people with fishing boats,"
"The big ship can't get through, but it's easy for me to swim across by myself."
“I’ll swim for about ten miles, and I don’t believe those guys can block off the entire riverbank for ten miles.”
"Alright,"
Ruan Xiaoer patted Zhang Shunde on the shoulder.
"We're just brothers, so please be careful!"
"Don't worry, Second Brother,"
Zhang Shun nodded.
"I understand."
.....
They needed shelter from the cargo ship.
The white streak in the waves stealthily dived into the water.
So they went against the current.
Heading up,
They soon arrived at the site where the Huaixi army's ships had sunk.
Dozens of fishing boats were tied together with ropes.
It was simply scuttled and sunk in the water.
Although the large ship cannot pass,
But one person wants to go there.
It's still easy all the time.
Zhang Shun went against the current.
They swam upstream for about ten miles.
Looking towards the western riverbank,
There were no longer any soldiers patrolling with those bandits.
The white streak in the waves was just about to come ashore...
But unexpectedly, at this moment,
He suddenly noticed: 6|4|6|. 1|3|6|6|5|9|
Not far away, in the upstream river channel,
About ten large ships were coming downstream with the current.
Zhang Shun only glanced at it.
He immediately recognized it.
These are the warships of the Liangshan navy.
