Jiangling Outer City, Shuizhai.
Above the village gate, on a huge horizontal tower, Liu Daogui was dressed in leather armor with a calm expression. He stood in the center. His deep eyes were cast on the huge shadows in the distance, which were on the river three miles away.
Above, the shadows of the four giant ships.
Lu Zongzhi's voice rang in his ears in surprise: "In the expedition to the west, Daoji lived up to expectations. He completely annihilated the chasing fleet of demon thieves, sank and captured more than seventy enemy ships, and killed more than four thousand thieves.
The enemy's chief general Li Yifan was captured alive, and the two lieutenants were either dead or captured. It can be said to be a complete victory!"
Liu Daogui nodded, his voice still calm as usual: "This is Daoji's ability. If the demon thief uses a partial force to pursue him, it would be an act of death in front of him. However, even if the demon thief sees this fleet being wiped out, he still can't."
Sending a boat to rescue him is what makes me feel weirder."
Lu Zongzhi frowned: "What do you mean, the enemy is still testing, using more than 70 ships to find out where our main force is?"
Liu Daogui said thoughtfully: "If Zhu Chaoshi is in command and he is willing to serve Tianshi Dao wholeheartedly, then this kind of thing can be done. As long as there are a few giant ships, the loss of dozens of small and medium-sized ships will be impossible."
Warships are a bearable loss for him, but this loss cannot be in vain. At least, we must try to find out where our main force is before we can take action accordingly."
Lu Zongzhi sneered: "Now that he has tested that our dozens of Huanglong warships have strong combat effectiveness, how can they act? Is it possible to attack our water stronghold directly?"
Liu Daogui curled up his lips: "If they can wipe out more than seventy assault ships in a water battle, at least they will know that those are not transport ships, but warships that have been prepared long ago. Since they are not used to transport soldiers, food, grass and ordnance
Breaking through, then our goal is to come out and fight them. We judge that there will be monster thieves, so we take advantage of the fact that we have divided our forces and many elites are in Daoji's fleet, and we quickly attack and approach the entrance of our water stronghold.
Let our attack fleet be trapped directly in the water fort."
Lu Zongzhi's expression changed: "Do they really have a way to seal us off?"
Liu Daogui nodded: "If the giant ship moves now and rushes directly to the entrance of our water village, it can indeed prevent us from attacking. If it is just an assault ship coming to block it, it cannot be blocked unless..."
Having said this, he paused, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Unless they have already arranged a Qianlong warship to ambush at the entrance of our water village, waiting for us to attack."
Lu Zongzhi gritted his teeth: "But the bottom of the river outside our water village is very shallow. If a large-scale Qianlong warship comes over, I'm afraid it won't be able to ambush, and it will hurt itself."
Liu Daogui turned his head and looked at the other side of the river. To the east of Meihuizhou, dozens of Huanglong warships were chasing more than a hundred Tianshi Dao assault ships back and forth on the river. This was the first time before.
Two hours have passed since a wave of warships broke out from the encirclement. They are still chasing back and forth on the river. They are still unable to catch up despite the distance of more than 100 miles. Even those assault ships from Tianshi Dao have been unable to catch up.
The first time they tried to speed up to catch up, the Huanglong fleet would be forced back by a hail of arrows and stones.
Liu Daogui smiled slightly and said: "General Cai's boating skills are really good. It has been almost two hours and he can still drag the enemy fleet. However, the current battle situation has changed, and we don't need to play this game.
It’s a game of chasing back and forth, take the initiative to seek changes, and force out the enemy’s follow-up.”
At this point, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Send a signal to Commander Cai and ask him to stop his ship on the river about four miles to the east, engage the enemy, resolve the battle as soon as possible, and eliminate the enemy's pursuit.
fleet, but don’t expect me to send him a fleet of reinforcements.”
At the same time, he continued: "Let Daoji's fleet recover and take the initiative to attack the enemy's fleet formation in the Meihuizhou area. Destroy it if you can. If you can't, don't be reluctant to fight. After driving away the enemy's troops, try to attack the enemy's fleet.
The giant warship maneuvers in the direction where the main battlefield is."
"By the way, let him not get too close to Meihuizhou. If the enemy has an ambush on the island and sets up long-range weapons, it will pose a huge threat to our Huanglong warship. If the enemy's fleet docks
If we stop the ships and fight, then we should ignore them and use the newly captured enemy ships to fight from behind, delaying time while the main force is concentrated in the direction of the giant ships."
After giving these two orders, Liu Daogui remained motionless, staring at the shadows of the giant ships in the distance. Lu Zongzhi curled his lips and said: "The fleets on the left and right have already moved. We
The thirty Yellow Dragon warships in the water village are used to attack the enemy's giant ships. When will they be dispatched?"
Liu Daogui's eyes sparkled and he said solemnly: "It's not the time to move yet. This is our last blow in the decisive battle. We also need to use the pheasant tail torch to completely destroy the enemy's giant warship. If we can't destroy the enemy,
giant ships, then all our victories are of little significance. Even if we eliminate two enemy fleets, they will soon be able to replenish hundreds of small and medium-sized warships. We still cannot seize control of the river and cannot threaten us.
The enemy's food routes and supplies cannot support the battle in the direction of Yuzhou. Moreover..."
Having said this, he sighed softly: "I always have a feeling that Zhu Chaoshi did not really betray and surrender to the enemy, he still wants to do his best for us."
Lu Zongzhi frowned: "Daogui, I advise you not to have such an idea. If you expect the enemy's general to stand on our side, you will make a big mistake. Zhu Chaoshi personally killed the southern general He Wuji.
It is known to everyone in the world that he can no longer turn back. You cannot regard our previous victory as him moving towards us."
Liu Daogui nodded: "This is just my wishful thinking. Of course I can't place my hope on it. However, the enemy's giant ship has been standing still, which makes me very confused. Now the escort fleet in front of their giant ship has been less than fifty.
Article, if we suddenly rush out and attack the giant ship, there is a chance of success. However, if they set up an ambush and ambush us with Qianlong warships, it will be troublesome. I still have to observe again.
For a moment, if the enemy's giant ship moves, then..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Zongzhi suddenly pointed to the distance in surprise. The four huge shadows finally began to move slowly in the night, pressing towards the direction where they were standing. Lu Zongzhi haha
He laughed and said, "It's moving, it's finally moving."
Liu Daogui's eyes flashed with excitement: "If the enemy moves, I will move too! Get ready to attack!"
