King Lin Yi rushed forward with his men and shouted at the pirates staying on the sea. They were extremely provocative, and some even made various humiliating actions.
Pirates have always bullied others. They are used to being strong and domineering. How can they stand it? Suddenly many ships rushed up, roaring, and many people fired arrows with all their strength.
The battle broke out instantly.
King Lin Yi's people were not to be outdone. A group of people rushed forward and blocked the front with shields. The archers counterattacked one after another, putting on a life-threatening posture.
The pirates were following the wind and their arrows could shoot far. However, King Lin Yi's men were against the wind and suffered a loss. They were in a passive state of being beaten, and casualties soon appeared. King Lin Yi was so angry that his face was livid. He saw that the pirate ship was getting closer and closer, and he was about to lure the enemy.
Achieved, quickly issue a retreat order.
Everyone turned around and ran away, looking like they were defeated and fled in panic.
The pirates laughed excitedly when they saw it, and became more and more aggressive and proud, urging the oarsmen to speed up the rowing.
Soon, hundreds of ships rushed to the beach and stopped. One by one, the pirates jumped out of the car, waving their weapons and rushing forward with all their strength, while making strange noises, fierce, cold, and rampant.
But more ships stayed still, as if waiting and watching.
This scene made Cheng Chumo in the woods very angry. He was too cautious. If a swarm of bees rushed up, they would be able to catch the whole pot, but only a few hundred ships and more than 2,000 pirates rushed up.
If you do it, the big fish will be scared away.
If you don't kill them, the army will definitely be exposed, and the big fish will still be scared away.
The previous few scouts were killed, so that King Lin Yi's men could go up and lure the enemy. I'm afraid it would be difficult to lure the enemy after killing these two thousand people, but they had to be killed. Cheng Chumo shouted angrily: "Send the order, a division will go up and kill them."
"
The order was conveyed quickly, and the soldiers of a division quickly advanced in a circle.
The sword is drawn, the arrow is cocked, and he is as cold as a wolf.
Not long after, King Lin Yi led his troops back to the mountains and forests. He was overjoyed when he saw the advancing Hanzhou army. He quickly stopped his troops and prepared to counterattack. He did not want to miss the opportunity for revenge.
The leading division commander did not object and signaled the army to continue advancing. When he saw the pirates rushing across the beach and rushing into the woods, only a few dozen meters away, he moved forward decisively.
The soldiers understood and quickly fired their arrows.
"Boohoo!"
Arrows flew past one after another, like poisonous snakes flying, like soul-catching scythes, dense as rain.
"Ahhh!"
Screams rang out one after another, and the pirates were caught off guard and fell down one after another. When they saw the army that suddenly appeared in the woods, their expressions changed drastically, and they turned around and ran away.
They are just a bunch of loose sand, coming to clear grass and valleys. Without effective organization, they will naturally fly away when disaster strikes.
"Come forward and kill them all!" the division commander shouted loudly.
The soldiers accelerated and charged forward, shooting arrows continuously as they ran.
King Lin Yi's eyes instantly turned red when he saw this scene, and he shouted to his people: "People, the time for revenge has come. For the sake of the dead ancestors, pick up your weapons, rush forward, and kill -
"
"Oh oh oh!"
Everyone uttered strange screams and ran away.
After rushing out of the woods, King Lin Yi's people were dumbfounded. The battle was in a state of one-sided massacre. The corpses of pirates were spread on the beach. A small number of people rushed to the boat and tried to escape. The Hanzhou army passed by with a hail of arrows, killing and wounding countless others. They all took cover.
Don't dare to raise your head in the cabin.
A large number of Hanzhou troops rushed forward, jumped on the boat and saw that the swords were fierce and the blood was flowing. The ferocious and powerful pirates in the past turned into little lambs at this moment.
Are the pirates getting weaker?
Or is the Hanzhou army too strong?
Everyone looked at King Lin Yi. King Lin Yi was naturally more knowledgeable than the others. His face was full of joy. He was glad that he had not chosen to resist before. Even the powerful pirates could not fight back. Lin Yi's thousands of people were not enough to fill his teeth.
Thinking of hatred, he shouted: "Tribesmen, rush forward and hit the target!"
If you can't fight for it, just finish it off.
Everyone's eyes lit up and they rushed to chop him, venting their years of grievances and hatred.
Cheng Chumo came up with the guards. Seeing this scene, he did not stop him. He crossed the battlefield and looked at the pirates docked in the sea. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth. But the troops were all landlubbers, and so was he. He couldn't pursue them even if he had a ship.
.
"General, general, thank you general for taking revenge for us. Everyone in Linyi is grateful and will remember it in their hearts." King Linyi hurried over and said gratefully.
"You are now a member of the King of Han, so my general will naturally take action. Is there any way to lure them ashore?" Cheng Chumo asked, pointing to the densely packed pirate ships on the sea.
King Lin Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "General, we have exposed our strength. The pirates will definitely not dare to go ashore and will go to other places to plunder. They cannot afford to lose."
"Where do you think they will go back?"
"Go west!"
King Lin Yi looked determined. Seeing Cheng Chumo looking at him in confusion, he explained: "To the east is Zhenzhou. There is a wealthy family in Zhenzhou, the Chen family. They have three thousand ships and over ten thousand servants. They specialize in robbing passing merchant ships. They cover an area thousands of miles away."
They are famous big pirates, but they do not rob the locals and are so supported by the locals that no other pirates dare to go."
"Where is it to the west?" Cheng Chumo asked.
"Zhen La!"
Cheng Chumo wrote down his name and looked at the vast sea with some worry. He was not afraid of any enemies on land, but it was different at sea. The pirates couldn't fight without going ashore. After thinking about it, he asked: "You are familiar with pirates. They don't fight at sea."
It’s very troublesome to get ashore, what do you think is their biggest weakness?”
"It's fresh water!"
"Tsui?" Cheng Chumo looked at King Lin Yi doubtfully.
King Lin Yi quickly explained: "The pirates came in alliance. If they don't grab enough food and supplies, their life will be difficult, so they will not give up and return, and will continue to take action. It is impossible to go east, they can only go west, and carry them on the ship."
Fresh water is limited, and once it is used up, it must be replenished. People cannot drink seawater, otherwise the more they drink, the thirstier they will become.”
"That's it!" Cheng Chumo's eyes suddenly lit up, he had an idea, and asked: "How long do you think they need to replenish their water supply?"
"Up to three days, of course, if it rains during the period, it will not count."
"Three days? It's a bit long, but it's not a big problem."
Cheng Chumo shouted murderously: "Su Wu!"
"arrive!"
A strong man hurriedly ran up. He was Cheng Chumo's confidant general and the commander of the army.
"Lead the troops to monitor the pirates along the coast. Once they come ashore, kill them directly without giving them a chance to plunder or replenish fresh water. I want to see how they can live without fresh water. King Lin Yi, ask your son to bring a few people with him.
Act as a translator and guide." Cheng Chumo said and looked at King Lin Yi.
Seeing the opportunity to perform meritorious service, King Lin Yi readily agreed.
The army commander named Su Wu also agreed. What came to mind, he asked: "General, if we encounter other tribes along the way? For example, the Zhenla mentioned just now, will we fight?"
"Follow the old rules!"
"Understood, take care, general." Su Wu understood and hurriedly left.
"Li Li!"
"Here!" A strong man rushed over. It was Li Jingren's subordinate who was responsible for communications along the way.
"Preparing to fly the eagle, we must report the situation here as soon as possible and ask the King of Han to make a decision." Cheng Chumo looked at the pirates with murderous eyes.
We have reached the extreme south and have completed our mission, but we don't want a pirate to show up.
At present, pirates pose too great a threat to land and will cause endless trouble if they are not eradicated.
But naval battles were unfamiliar and involved too much, so Cheng Chumo didn't dare to decide what to do next.
