Jin Guofan was worried that Li Zhong would be embarrassed again when he asked to leave, so he rushed to say: "Who knows that Duke An of Qin was the victorious commander of the Sui Dynasty and had never been defeated. How could those Goguryeo navy be the opponent of Duke An of Qin, so I and
Mr. Li will stay and watch the battle."
Although Li Zhongyi was dissatisfied with Jin Guofan's decision to stay, since the latter had already spoken, he was the prince of his country after all, so it was difficult for him to say anything, and he couldn't say anything.
At this moment, the cry of a sea eagle sounded high in the sky, and then a big red lantern lit up on the warship where Wang Junlin was, and then a sea eagle fell from the sky.
Soon, Zhang Tiangang personally took the information sent by Hai Diao. After reading it, Wang Junlin looked solemn: "The Goguryeo Navy, led by General Li Chengkun and commanded by 10,000 people, has sailed towards Daami Island at full speed. It seems that they want to stay at night.
Attack. Send an order to Liu Yidong of Bailing Island and ask him to lead two thousand naval troops to come to Daami Island quickly."
Zhang Tiangang agreed, and soon a sea eagle soared into the sky and flew towards Bailing Island.
More than an hour later, Liu Yidong led 2,000 navy troops to arrive, joined with 2,000 navy troops from Da Mi Island, and prepared for the battle according to the previously agreed upon tactics.
Not long after, the watch whistle of the warship on the left wing was heard blowing a long and whimpering horn to indicate that a large number of ships were approaching from the north, and the beacon smoke of the sentry ship in the distance was almost all ignited at the same time.
Enemy attack! Large enemy troops attack!
Wang Junlin hurriedly boarded the stern deck and looked north. The sails and masts were heavy and the sky was blocked. He was afraid that there would be no more than three or four hundred warships. It was Goguryeo's 10,000 navy crossing the sea. It seemed that they were going to take advantage of the night to sneak attack on the mainland.
Mi Island, and even rushed to the beach to land on the island.
Unfortunately, all their actions were under the watchful eye of spies from Wang Junlin's side, and there were white-bellied sea eagles rushing to report the news. Wang Junlin's side had been waiting for a long time, so how could their sneak attack succeed.
"The signal flag was raised to order Liu Yidong to lead his fifty warships to directly attack the enemy's formation. Luo Chunlai led half of his warships to follow me and command the ship to sail eastward along the island shore and intercept its return; Luo Chunlai led the rest of the navy to the island
Form a formation in the northeast to prepare for the enemy troops to rush to the beach and land on the island!" Wang Junlin was in high spirits, and he was a little surprised that the battle went smoothly.
At this time, the sky was not bright yet and the field of vision was relatively limited. Goguryeo's 10,000 naval troops had no idea that the side that wanted to attack by surprise had been prepared.
It wasn't until Goguryeo Navy General Li Chengkun heard the warning from the watch post on the mast that he climbed up to the mast himself. Looking south, he was horrified.
In the waters north of Dai Mi Island, the navy warships they wanted to attack were spread out in a horizontal array, already in position, waiting for them to ram them head-on.
Yuan Taizuo personally led Li Chengkun and others to plan for a long time, and the navy gathered in Annan County was not actually gathered together. If he had not been very familiar with the situation of the Goguryeo navy, he would not have noticed it in advance, and the sneak attack tonight was not possible.
Confidentiality was kept very good in advance. During the journey, there was no contact with Wang Junlin's sentry ship. Also, under the cover of night, Li Chengkun couldn't figure out how Wang Junlin knew their whereabouts and arrived in Damai in advance.
Arrangements have been made in the waters of the North Beach of the island, and it seems that the navy of Baengnyeong Island is also here. Did they already know that their side was coming?
For a moment, Li Chengkun's hands and feet felt cold and he felt a little dazed.
Li Chengkun was also a famous general in Goguryeo, and was known as the number one navy general. He had annihilated no less than ten thousand pirates. He thought he would use ten thousand navy to deal with Wang Junlin's four thousand navy, but he had planned it for a long time, and he was able to capture him easily.
It should also be easy to defeat the opponent.
However, he didn't expect that his actions seemed to be all expected by the other party, which was a big blow to him.
Li Chengkun had rich experience in naval battles, and his tactical literacy was among the best among the Goguryeo navy. Even though he was shocked, he knew that no matter what the opponent's arrangements were, he could only continue to rush forward according to the original plan.
The ship formations of the two sides are only four or five miles apart, and such a large ship formation covers several miles. The wind direction also causes the two sides to meet. Adjusting the direction of the ship formation cannot be done in a short time. We can only continue according to the established plan.
Move forward to seize the beach and land on the island. With their superior strength, they should still be able to defeat the opponent.
"The enemy navy's ship array in the waters off Beitan is a bit thin and easy to penetrate." Li Chengkun was overjoyed.
The Fanyang County fleet is slowly starting its eastward journey. As a marching fleet, the northward direction is considered a flank, so how can it be thick?
Li Chengkun didn't know that this was a bait in Wang Junlin's plan, a flaw deliberately exposed.
Li Chengkun gave the order and commanded the fleet to attack the flank of Wang Jun's Ark Division fleet at full speed yesterday.
Under normal circumstances, Li Chengkun's entire division attacking the flank of Fanyang County's boat division is undoubtedly the most correct strategy. Unfortunately, this was originally a trap.
A beacon fire was lit on the north cliff of Dami Island. In the clear morning light, black smoke shot straight into the night sky, and eight or nine piles of beacon fires lit up the dark sky on the top of the mountain.
In the end, Jin Guofan, Li Zhongyi and the two envoys from Baekje did not dare to rush over with Wang Junlin's battleship. They each sat back on their own ships, sailed far away to watch the battle, and were ready to escape at any time.
At this time, the four people could vaguely see the huge fleet sailing southward in the east. Almost in the blink of an eye, the fleet outposts came into contact with Wang Junlin's fleet formation on the North Beach.
The encounter was sudden and violent.
In the opinion of Li Zhongyi, Jin Guofan and two envoys from Baekje, although Wang Junlin's Ark Division had the advantage of warships, when the two armies encountered each other, the ship array was too wide and the flanks were thin.
The Goguryeo fleet heading south at full speed rushed towards them, and without even making any tentative moves, a sea battle involving more than 10,000 people broke out in the waters off the northern beach of Daimi Island.
After falling into a melee, the fleet of Wang Junlin and his party was quickly divided into east and west sections. The situation seemed to be even more unfavorable, and the fleet on the east side was in a downwind direction. It would be extremely difficult to turn around and counterattack.
At the Golden State Dinner, Li Zhongyi and the four people frowned. Li Zhongyi said: "I just said that I would give three good ships to Wang Junlin, but now I don't think there is any need to give them to Wang Junlin. Maybe Wang Junlin will soon become disheartened."
He took the people and escaped."
"It seems that the name is not true!" Although Jin Guofan is not good at water battles, he feels that Wang Junlin's side was hit so hard that it was broken into two pieces and was not far from collapse. In short, Wang Junlin's battleship was at a disadvantage
It's obvious and easy to see.
Wang Junlin stood on the stern deck, with a calm and calm expression on his face, and said to Du Haiwa next to him: "These twenty-five warships are now under your command!"
"Bingzhi will continue to drive ducks to the island as planned?" Du Haiwa asked.
"I don't mind Li Chengkun fighting a war of attrition with me in the Beitan waters." Wang Junlin said with a smile: "There is not a single grain left for them on the island. Since they are willing to go to the island, in order to reduce our losses, let's send them
