After hearing what Chen Mu said, Li Conghou just smiled coldly and did not pay attention to the scolding and warning.
"Chen Mu, I know you can fight, but now we are on the river. Do you really dare to lead these landlubbers into a water battle with my army?"
This was the main reason why Li Conghou dared to challenge Chen Mu. If the two armies were facing each other on land, how could he dare to make such a noise with this group of tigers, leopards and wolves that had destroyed the Tatar country?
But it can be seen that now on the Yangtze River, even if the Shu army behind Chen Mu can fight again, most of the sergeants have never even touched a ship and can display very little strength. How can it be possible for them who have lived all year round?
The opponent of the navy along the river?
Seeing Chen Mu with his head buried in silence, Li Conghou then shouted: "Those bullshit Japanese people are going to beat you up yourself. I won't accompany you, but I have good news for you. Your idiot brother is still in Yingtian City.
Go quickly, maybe we can still collect the body, don’t you think so?”
After saying that, Li Conghou turned around and walked towards the boat.
As for Chen Mu, he slowly raised his head the next moment and glanced at Li Conghou's back with a sinister look.
Without him having to say anything, Han Xin'er on the side understood immediately, waved his hand, and gave orders to the officers in the surrounding ships: "Aim all gun barrels and flintlocks at the Jiangnan military ships!"
"Take orders!"
With this sound, hundreds of giant ships behind them dispersed in an instant, and the soldiers continued to reload ammunition. Soon the squatting cannons followed by tens of thousands of muskets were all aimed at the Jiangnan military fleet.
As for the Jiangnan Army on the ship, including Li Conghou, they all looked at the strange iron rods in the hands of this group of Shu soldiers with puzzled faces.
"What are these Shu soldiers holding?"
"I don't know? They're like fire sticks."
The Jiangnan Army has been stationed along the coast, which is too far from the north. It has not yet had time to get a detailed battle report on Chen Mu's recovery of Yanyun and the destruction of the Tatars, and they have no idea of the disaster they are about to face.
"The fleet has advanced ten feet!"
Under the command of Han Xiner, the Shu fleet continued to approach. At this moment, the Jiangnan Army suddenly knew that these Shu troops were about to go to war with them.
Even though Li Conghou felt that he had something to rely on before, when he actually faced the battle with these terrifying war machines, he suddenly panicked.
Then he pointed at Chen Mu's nose and yelled angrily: "You damn Chen Mu, are you pointing the knife at one of your own?"
After hearing this, Chen Mu instantly laughed angrily: "One of our own? As a soldier who protects our home and country, he will flee whenever there is a war. Go to hell!"
Being scolded like this, Li Conghou gritted his teeth and wanted to rush over and bite Chen Mu to death.
"You little bastard, I have to show you the power of my Jiangnan navy today!"
After that, he began to command the fleet, and the remaining ships on the river slowly unfolded. Under Li Conghou's order, the tens of thousands of people on board instantly drew their bows to full length, and aimed their sharp arrows at Chen Mu.
As long as Li Conghou gives an order, thousands of arrows will be fired.
"Damn it, you are just submissive to the intruder, but you are quite powerful when facing me. I have to beat you up now!"
Under another instruction from Chen Mu, Han Xiner behind him immediately roared.
"shooting!"
"emission!"
Following the orders from both sides, the most intense water battle in the past century slowly unfolded.
But the next battle situation made Li Conghou's eyes widen. With the continuous sound of explosions, the soldiers on their side who were bending their bows were shot over by the oncoming iron bullets before they could take aim and let go.
On the ground.
Li Conghou hurriedly climbed down behind the ship's pole. Looking at the soldiers who kept falling and struggling and vomiting blood on the ship's deck, he felt too horrified. What on earth were these Shu soldiers holding?
At this time, Chen Mu was still directing the Shu army to shoot continuously: "Fuck you, shoot for me!"
As far as Chen Mu is concerned, his state of mind has long been washed away by these years of war. Shan Li Conghou's provocative words did not make him so desperate at all.
What really annoyed Chen Mu was that these people were so spineless and cowardly. As soldiers, they should be the backbone of all the people of the entire nation. They should know that there is a dead end ahead, and they should die for the people of their country and country behind them.
But now, you are greedy for life and afraid of death and only want to run away. Chen Mu has never been a good person from beginning to end. Since you don't dare to die bravely on the battlefield, then you will die by your own hands.
After half a stick of incense, the Jiangnan Army in front was beaten so hard by the Shu Army that they could not lift their heads.
Chen Mu didn't know the number of casualties, but a rough estimate was that at least three to five thousand people died on the spot.
"Okay, the lesson has been learned, the gunpowder is limited, the rest is left to the Japanese."
At Han Xiner's order, everyone immediately calmed down.
As the ships moved forward slowly, the Shu army fleet headed down the river again, completely ignoring the Jiangnan army, which outnumbered them.
As for Li Conghou, who had been lying behind the ship's pole, he felt the Shu fleet passing by, and immediately stood up. With an angry look on his face, he was ready to point at the Shu fleet and curse a few words, so as to regain some hope.
face.
But when he stood up and pointed his finger at the Shu army ship, he saw Chen Mu's wolf-like eyes staring at him.
Even though he didn't say a word, the look in his eyes said everything. If you dare to curse, I will turn the boat around and continue to beat you!
"Little beast!"
After a long silence, Li Conghou only dared to curse in a low voice.
This water battle ended hastily with Chen Mu and Fang Lin being casualties. At present, Zhang Bowen, Huangfu and several other top leaders were standing around Chen Mu.
Zhang Bowen was the first to say: "Now the Jiangnan army suddenly withdraws to the north of the Yangtze River. Without the emperor's order, I'm afraid it would be impossible."
Before, Chen Mu also clearly heard what Li Conghou said: I retreat under the emperor's order.
"Yes, Brother Mu, if that's the case, I'm afraid that this time the dog emperor Liu Yuan wants us to kill each other with the Japanese. Most of the Jiangnan Army's troops are still intact. If all 50,000 of our Sichuan and Shu descendants are consumed,
, even if the Japanese are driven back by then, won’t they be a stepping stone for Liu Yuan?”
After Han Xin'er finished speaking, Huangfu then said: "Your Majesty, if I tell you, it's better to do the opposite and just send your troops to take Chang'an directly. At worst, we will temporarily give up Jiangnan to the Japanese Japanese pirates."
The atmosphere was changing even more at this moment. Chen Mu stood alone on the bow of the ship. He knew very well what the others were thinking, but he still waved his hand.
"Brother Chen! Now the Longxia Dynasty has begun to set up a trap against us. If you hesitate again this time, you will never have another chance!"
The reason why the Longxia Dynasty was afraid of Chen Mu was simply because he had tens of thousands of elite soldiers and generals. If he didn't make a decision this time, once his troops were severely damaged, he would be met with disaster.
At the moment, the three of them were looking at Chen Mu with pleading eyes, trying to persuade him to come forward. If he didn't raise the flag to rebel today, there would be no chance for him.
After being silent for a long time, Chen Mu finally gave them an answer: "No, but no matter what, we still have to fight against the enemy this time."
