526: The End of the Battle (11)
Five Hundred and Twenty-Six: The Final Battle (11)
"Are you going to launch a night attack on the Han family's ships?" asked Ye Qianxi.
"No, it's the other side that wants to launch a night attack, the other side doesn't look like us, there is no place behind them to replenish food and grass and repair ships, plus their ability to fight at night at sea is stronger than ours, so they will definitely launch a night attack, after all, they can't withstand the consumption of time. β
"But we can't afford it, although we rely on Linji behind us, but we can't take advantage of the time. β
"That's right, Han Qigu must have thought of what I said, but he definitely didn't think of what you said, so no matter how he changes his strategy, the point of quick victory will definitely not change, as long as he makes good use of this. β
"How?"
"All the ships extinguished all the fires and ...... Release the bait ......"
"Will the other party be fooled?" Ye Qianxi had memorized all the more than ten strategies that Yun Yun wanted to use, so Yun Yun just said a few words, and he understood what kind of strategy to use.
"Then it depends on how well you use your bait, and if you don't want to disturb us, what kind of method should we use to fight?"
"Broadside combat, it's the best way to attack at night. Ye Qianxi replied without thinking.
"Go and prepare, the moon is just obscured by the clouds, and the only thing that can judge the direction is the firelight, and don't forget to add a fortune boat or a boat to the bait. β
"What!?This bait is too big!?" Ye Qianxi felt that just putting the Haicang boat in the bait was already a very luxurious thing.
"I can't catch big fish with big bait, do you think big fish like to eat small shrimp?"
Yun Yun's response method is as follows: place a boat used to lure the Han family's sailors to the bait in a place about a mile away from the isolated island, light the lights on the boat to lure the Han family's sailors, and then configure the people of Luo Yingshe and the best sailors on it to pretend to patrol posture, and when the Han family attacks, pretend to cause chaos and leave the bait boat, while Ye Qianxi leads the main force of the sailor to secretly aim all the firearms at the place where the bait boat, and when the Han family's broadside battle is in full swing, he will greet him with firearmsγ
Because of Luo Yingshe's participation, Ye Qianxi used Luo Yingshe's disguise technique, and even simulated the generals in the bait boat, which was more realistic.
After giving the order, Yun Yun returned to her ship and entered the cabin, while Eight Hundred Xia Qing stayed here all the time, which she personally requested.
"It's all done?" asked Eight Hundred Xia Qing.
"That's right, let's see what Ye Qianxi does. Yun Yun found a chair and sat down and said, "How about it, is there any good advantage in insisting on staying on my ship?"
"That's right. β
"I'd like to hear it. β
"Actually, the Han family's sailors shouldn't have chosen this time to attack the Zhou family, after all, it's already early May. "At the beginning of May, it is the time when the rainy season enters the place of Linji, and the rainy season here in Linji has always been early and long, I try to read astronomical divination, and there will be heavy rain tomorrow, and it is estimated that the entire isolated island and most of the surrounding sea areas will be covered by heavy rain." β
"Heavy rain?"
"And what does it mean when it rains, you know? β
"The south wind day means that the Zhou family will be in a downwind position, and the Han family will be reduced to a headwind position, right?"
"That's right, if the Han family doesn't make some big moves tonight, they may really lose their geographical advantage tomorrow, obviously they won't have this situation a few days in advance, and they can continue to suppress the Zhou family's sailors. β
"It's weird. After hearing this, Yun Yun held her chin with her hand and made a thinking motion, "Han Qigu is obviously the chief officer of the Han family's water division, right? How can it be that he doesn't even know the situation of the weather and hydrology at this point, and he has to attack us at this moment when his advantage is about to be lost, this is really unreasonable, if it is according to what you said in the eight hundred, they will definitely not make such a low-level mistake." β
"Probably because of the change of position. Su Wusu appeared in the cabin, "I heard what the two of you said just now. β
"What did you just mean by the change of official position?" Yun Yun turned around and asked.
That's what it means on the surface. Su Wusu briefly bowed to Yun Yun and explained, "Don't look at the fact that the Han family's sailors can have such great strength now, but these are just the foundations laid by the previous generations of sailors, the Han family's sailors were not in Qianzhou at the beginning, but were active in the Yangjiang River and various large lakes in the water system, so you can see that the heavy ships of the Han family's sailors are mainly sand boats." The people who founded the Han family's sailor are not the direct line of the Han family, but the power of one party, they foresaw that the Han family could rise, so they defected to the Han family, and used their excellent sailor technology to gain a foothold in the Han family, and then when the Han family collected Qianzhou, they rewarded this place to the sailor, and the sailor took advantage of the advantage of the boat to become the world's first sailor in one fell swoop, and then never lost a game against the surrounding family forces, even to Nanguo and Mengsun. β
"But that's just a matter of previous generations, after that, the chief officer of the water division changed several times, although it was also a must-win in every game, but it was just because of the large number of people and excellent weapons of the Han family's water division, after all, they had already suppressed the other party in terms of momentum, and Han Qigu was just like this, and if it didn't sound good, it was just slowly gnawing at the old book. Although Han Qigu is a good chief military officer, he is far behind someone like Ye Qianxi who really understands the structure of the water division and knows how to use the hydrological weather. β
"This is the so-called position swap ......"
"That's right, the first generation of the Han family's chief military officer left the most solid foundation of the Han family's naval division, but he did not leave a talent who could continue to be qualified as the chief military officer of the naval division, nor did he leave a method that could cultivate the chief military officer of the naval division, in another sense, this is also the ultimate reason for the decline of the Han family's naval division. If our current opponent is someone like Ye Qianxi or a general of the first generation of the Han family's sailors, victory will definitely not fall to us. "During this time, Su Wushu, who has carefully checked the Han family's water master, understands the truth very well.
Saying that, there was already a noisy sound around the room, it seems that the Han family's sailor must have taken the bait, and Ye Qianxi is organizing an attack on firearms, and a distance of one mile is nothing for artillery.
"Miss Yun, to say something unpleasant, Ye Qianxi is a treasure to the Zhou family, although his ability is not as good as the first generation of the Han family's chief military officer, but he is the only one who can support the Zhou family's sailor, don't let the Zhou family's sailor also follow the old path of the Han family's sailor, no matter how good the ship is, it is just a pile of wood, and if there is no suitable person to control it, sooner or later it will be over. β
"Then I'll take your kind reminder. Yun Yun said.
"Miss!?" Suddenly the hatch was slammed open, startling the people inside, and the person who came was Su Bi'an, "The Han family's sailor has other actions!"
"Other actions?"
"They've sent light ships to attack the docks of Linji at night! I guess it's almost there!" Su Bi'an said, "I just overheard it from the other party's flagship!"
Yun Yun looked at Su Bi'an's lower half of his clothes soaking wet, it seemed that he was really in a hurry to come back.
"The Zhou family's sailors are all on an isolated island, and Linji is not defended. Su Bi'an said.
"Really, I don't think the ships that went to attack Linji will come back. Yun Yun said, "Tonight's results may be very good. β
"Huh?"
"The main force of the Zhou family's sailors is here, but there is no fire warship, so where will the fire warship be?"
If the fire warship is not on an isolated island, then it can only be in Rinzai.
"And there are also traps set up around the sea surface of Rinzai, so if you get close, you can wait to be destroyed. Yun Yun said calmly.
"Organs?"
"That's a mine disguised as a warship. Yun Yun said, "As long as you get close, it will be triggered, and then ......"
"That's right. β
"So you see, it's a mistake to attack Linji, and thankfully they didn't send a large ship. β
Later, Ye Qianxi came to report the situation, the losses of the Han family sailors who came to attack this time were not small, two large ships were destroyed, the light ships that went to attack Linji at night were also wiped out, and the medium-sized ships were conservatively estimated to have four, but this was at the expense of a Zhou family's ship, a fortune ship and four Haicang ships, and the Zhou family was barely small in terms of losses.
"Fire warships are in place. "Early the next morning, Ye Qianxi reported to Yun Yun that there was no mistake in the fortune calculation of the eight hundred Xia Qing, and it began to rain the next morning.
"Wait a little longer...... Although it was raining, the wind direction was still not very favorable to the Zhou family.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, but there was still no strong wind.
"Lord, if it goes on like this, not only firearms, but even fire warships can't be used!" Ye Qianxi said, "If we want to engage in broadside battles, we have no chance of winning!"
"Wait any longer...... Yun Yun also knew that she couldn't wait any longer, but such a weak south wind would not have any effect on the Zhou family's sailors at all.
"Commander, the Han family's ships have begun to attack us. "It seems that he wants to crush us in one fell swoop with the rain!"
"The other party's boat is coming?"
"It's true. β
Yun Yun thought for a while and said, "Ye Qianxi, order all the fire warships to attack, and all the ships to move forward, first with firearms, and then prepare for close combat!"
"Melee?"
"Since the Han family has created conditions for us, we can't help but accept it!"
