The most feared thing when sailing is collision. The leader and helmsman on the official ship were dumbfounded. They had never seen anyone sail like this!
The other party doesn't want to live, but they do!
Once the boat capsized, they would all be eaten by fish! Fearing death, they quickly began to hide, so Xiao Changyan waited for a long time for no reinforcements!
He actually had some guesses in his mind. After all, it was he who asked Yu Xiang to tell Shen Yun'an most of his deployments. His purpose was to make Shen Yun'an completely trust Yu Xiang in preparation for the final battle!
"Your Highness, why don't we send out a signal to let General Yu and others come to our rescue!" The staff and Xiao Changyan had been forced into a corner, and the staff suggested!
Xiao Changyan shook his head and said only: "Shen Yun'an didn't come."
Shen Yun'an did not come, firstly to prevent him from risking everything, and secondly to hide in the background and wait for an opportunity to act. If he sends out the signal now, it will be too late for the Jiannan Jiedushi. Once Yu Xiang makes a move, Shen Yun'an might personally lead people to attack Yu Xiang.
"This... Didn't Prince Shen form an alliance with General Yu?" The staff felt that Shen Yun'an shouldn't attack Yu Xiang. Wouldn't this break the alliance? Unless Prince Shen never considered General Yu as his own!
"Those who were killed were people from the imperial court. General Yu suffered heavy casualties. It was my command that was responsible. They tried to rescue me, so the responsibility also lies with me." Even if Shen Yun'an had exposed Yu Xiang's secrets, Yu Xiang would not be held responsible at all, because he was acting on his orders.
"Your Highness, the ship is about to collapse!" The staff warned as they watched the fire grow bigger and the ship begin to sink.
Xiao Changyan looked around and escorted his staff to the dock: "You get off the boat first!"
After saying that, he turned around, jumped twice towards Shen Ershiqi's position, and dived into the water.
Shen Ershiqi had been circling in the water for a long time. He was no longer beside the boat and had paddled a long distance. Due to the heavy siege, he was extremely exhausted. Although he had received special training and had good physical strength, he could not withstand such consumption.
Especially when he surfaced to breathe, he happened to see Xiao Changyan jumping down from the firelight and swimming towards him, and he felt secretly anxious.
At this time, a small covered boat seemed to be blind to the fighting and danger here, and it paddled slowly, rocking the boat towards this side.
Faintly, one can still seem to hear the people rowing the boats singing folk songs about catching fish, which forms a sharp contrast with the fierce fighting in the river, and also adds a hint of discordant weirdness to the silence.
When Xiao Changyan saw the small covered boat, he knew in his heart that it was definitely sent by Shen Yun'an. He sped up and wanted to intercept Shen Ershiqi, but he didn't expect that the people from the Shen family had already started to clear the way and killed people on both sides, thus clearing a way for Shen Ershiqi to kill.
After all, these people were not specially trained by Xiao Changyan, and they had a disadvantage in experience in fighting with Shen's people in the water. Even though they were more in number, they were a group of scattered sand and could not stop the Shen's army who were well-trained, able to work as a team, and trust and support each other.
When Xiao Changyan caught up, Shen Ershiqi had already been pulled onto the small sailboat. The man rowing the boat was Shen Shiwu. Shen Ershiqi recognized him and hurriedly called out, "Brother Shiwu!"
"Don't just stand there. There is a great gift in the boat that the prince prepared for His Royal Highness King Jing." Shen Shiwu glanced at the exhausted Shen Ershiqi and threw the oar to him, "Paddle the boat well!"
