At this moment, Li Ji stood on top of his helmet and armor on a modified version of the cruiser. At this moment, more than a dozen cruisers were arranged in a horizontal formation.
In the gaps between these battleships, there are still more than twenty battleships facing forward. None of these battleships have been modified.
But at the bow of the ship, two cannons were also installed side by side, with the muzzles pointed straight at the gap between the huge ships.
Other warships, large and small, were cruising in the rear, ready to attack at any time.
But deep in the mouth of the Baijiang River, Baekje's remaining warships were stalling in the face of the huge Tanglu ship that had opened its way through three gunboats.
The previous naval battles had destroyed the main force of the Baekje navy. Nowadays, most of them are light boats and small boats. These things are really vulnerable to the artillery of the Tang Dynasty.
Even if there are only three large ships and more than twenty artillery pieces, it is enough to create a situation where one man is in charge and no one can open it in the narrow waterway.
Guoguang Junyong, who had done meritorious service for his crime, looked at the scene in front of him and could only angrily order the soldiers to hold on and hold on tight.
When a war breaks out outside the mouth of the Baijiang River and the battleship formation of the Tang Navy is in chaos, that will be the best time for the Baekje Navy to attack.
The three captains of the huge warships all looked at the Baekje Navy several miles away, and they were very angry.
I really didn't expect that my three brothers would be so unlucky. Seeing everyone else fighting against Japan, my three brothers were the only ones who stayed here and glared at the greedy Baekje Navy.
I just hope that after the Japanese navy is wiped out, there will still be a big war to fight, otherwise, I will have to die of oppression.

"How far are we from?" Li Ji, who was wearing bright armor, stroked his beard with one hand and held the sword at his waist with the other. He faced the Japanese navy with over a thousand ships rushing forward, and his expression did not change much.
This kind of emotional control alone is enough to make Wu Zhonglang and other great generals of the Tang Dynasty feel ashamed.
He is truly worthy of being a commander-in-chief who has spent half his life in the military. He is still so calm at critical moments, and his calmness and calmness also make the soldiers around him who are beginning to have mood swings gradually relax.
"Report to the commander, the enemy ship's vanguard is still five or six miles away from us..."
Hearing this, Li Ji looked towards General Wu Zhonglang. "Send the order to all ships to open the gun windows and all gunners to get into position..."
After hearing a series of military orders conveyed by Li Ji, General Wu Zhonglang loudly agreed and then began to shout harshly. Then, a flag slowly rose.
And the sound of the war drums began to send signals, and more than a dozen modified cruisers and warships, which had been prepared for a long time, pushed open the gun windows of their hulls.
Then the iron-black artillery barrels were slowly stretched out from the window...
"How far is Deputy General Cheng's fleet from Baijiangkou now?" Li Ji asked after waiting for a while.
Not long after, news came that the fleet commanded by Cheng Sanlang had already reached the southern end of the Baijiang Mountain estuary and was lingering on the sea there.
"Tell the Immortal Basketball Team to raise the attack flag!" Li Ji shouted again.
#####
"Senior, senior, there is news below..." Wang Fangyi, who was carefully observing the movements of the Japanese fleet, heard the greetings from his companions.
He got close to the edge of the basket, looked down, and saw that on the eye-catching white ground below, someone was already using wooden sticks of different lengths.
Several characters were placed, each character was about two steps long and wide, making it particularly eye-catching.
"Raise the attack flag..." Wang Fangyi carefully identified and muttered out the five characters.
He and his companions began to prepare a metal tube that could slide down the pole, and fastened it on the cable. As soon as they let go, the metal tube slid down quickly.
On the buckle of the metal tube, a bright red silk cloth about several feet long and three feet wide was tied, which slid down as the metal tube fell.
A bright red long banner appeared in the sky, which looked so dazzling and eye-catching.
"Commander, attack flag, attack flag!" the observation sentry in the flagship's lookout began to shout loudly.
Cheng Chubi, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, finally let out a sigh of relief and waved his hand.
"Raise the flag, the whole army marches towards Baijiangkou!"
As Cheng Sanlang's flagship was raised, the bright red flag was flying, and the sound of war drums awakened all living creatures in the world.
The Datang Navy task force set sail one after another and headed towards the mouth of the Baijiang River.
As for the Silla warships, they could only bite the bullet and follow the giant ships of the Tang Dynasty toward the mouth of the Baijiang River.
#####
The Japanese generals did not have the telescope used by the Tang army to observe the enemy's situation. As the Tang navy's giant ships suddenly appeared, dark holes appeared one after another.
This leaves them with no other good solution except to crane their necks and squint hard to look.
"What are those Tang warships doing?"
"Are they crazy? There are so many holes dug in the boat, so they are not afraid that their boat will sink accidentally."
"Your Highness, Your Highness, look, those Tang Dynasty naval warships have many holes exposed on their hulls for some unknown reason."
"..." Brother Zhong was also detailing it at the moment. Unfortunately, he didn't even know what a gunpowder weapon was. It's strange that he could see something wrong.
I could only blink my eyes dully for a long time, and then I smiled to myself with a very calm and calm expression.
"It doesn't matter, this must be a trick of the Tang Dynasty navy. Our navy has more than a thousand warships and tens of thousands of elites. In this battle, we only need to use our strength to defeat the enemy."
"Send the order, the fire ships in front start to light up. We must give those Tang Dynasty Navy warships a taste of their power. Let's see if they will regret the weird formation they put in today."
Li Ji saw flames and green smoke coming out of dozens of speedboats at the front of the Japanese fleet, while the speed of other Japanese warships slowed down.
Li Ji couldn't help but raise a strange smile at the corner of his mouth. Through his telescope, he had already seen the side and rear of the Japanese fleet.
Masts piercing the sky appeared from the south side of the estuary. Soon, three-masted giant ships came into Li Ji's sight.
You can see the white waves cut by the slightly bumpy bow, which represents that these three-masted giant ships are maintaining a rapid high speed at this moment.
The gun windows that had been fully opened and the warships running wildly made Li Ji a little stunned.
This guy seems to be tired of positional warfare and is ready to engage in mobile warfare, right?
"Ten degrees to port, continue to advance at full speed, load all gun positions with explosive shells..."
Accompanied by Cheng Sanlang's roar, military orders were passed on one after another.
At this moment, Wang Fangyi, who was flying in the sky, pursed his lips tightly. In this vast world, he saw a scene that made his blood boil.
