Chapter 325 Battle (I)

Cheng Hong ran unhurriedly in front, and the Gu family's boat followed blatantly, and before he knew it, he was five miles away from the coastline.

At this time, the island by the sea is no longer visible! And the small boat hidden behind the island also went around. Cheng Hong climbed onto the observation platform at the top of the mast and looked at it with a monocular, and there were more than 100 dense boats! The big one has about seven zhang, and the small one actually has a small sampan.

Without exception, it was full of people, but Cheng Hong was a little puzzled, why didn't they attack? Could it be that the Gu family really dared to risk the world's condemnation and prepare to make a move in the river or Taihu Lake?

If that's the case, you're in trouble! Don't look at the sea, this Mao-class battleship spreads its sails like a fish in water! But fortunately, I saw the river, and it is estimated that one of the five-tooth ships can fight!

Cheng Hong looked at it for a while and shook his head, it seemed that this group of people had not yet come over, it stands to reason that he had already walked through the island where they were ambushed, and the boat they followed was still following!

It can be seen that they are still playing their own ideas, but why not attack? I've already pulled out five miles, why haven't they come yet?

Cheng Hong was just about to go down, when he suddenly heard the three "whooshing" arrows in the north, Cheng Hong looked at the back, good guy, this guy is densely packed with five hundred ships!

As far as the eye can see, the sea is almost occupied, and Cheng Hong looks to the west again, and those small boats are desperately approaching Cheng Hong as if they have been beaten with chicken blood!

Cheng Hong looked at so many ships and secretly calculated to himself, good guy, so many water bandits, more than 50,000, what do they want to do with the Gu family?

Because this place south of the Yangtze River is located in the mainland, there are not many soldiers and horses at all, although Feng Ang claims to be tens of thousands of slaves, but he really came into contact with it and knew that Feng Ang had all the soldiers, and there were not 50,000 even if there was one.

This Gu family directly took out so many soldiers and horses! And it doesn't seem to be a mess of things, one by one they are slick and slippery with swords and steel forks to divide the water...... Although there are various weapons, bows and arrows are all of a uniform style!

Originally, Cheng Hong had already overestimated the Gu family, but as soon as the Gu family's fleet came out today, Cheng Hong found that he still underestimated them!

Now that the carriage and horses have been laid out, let's come! Cheng Hong ordered: "Fang Jun told the Chen-class battleship in front of him not to sail, push the water wheel up, and let the ship stay as far away from the coast as possible!" You poured the prepared blood and entrails down the stern! ”

Fang Jun got the order, go down and pass the order!

After the flag was raised, I saw the water wheels of the two ships in front of me slowly speeding up.

Gu Zhang stood on top of a water steamer and sneered: "It's just a dying struggle, give me full speed and surround them!" Whoever is the first to board the ship will be rewarded with ten dollars! ”

"No!"

After a while, everyone knew about Gu Zhang's order! If Gu Zhang said a lot, it is estimated that no one would believe it, but Shiguan, just what they could get, Gu Zhang would not lose his reputation for Shiguan's money.

If he said Baiguan, this group of people would definitely not believe it, because the Gu family would not give it, it can be said that although the Gu family has monopolized the water for so many years, but people eat horses and feed them, and they have to maintain so many boats, it is not as beautiful as it seems to be!

And Shiguan is exactly the home that Gu Zhang can be, so the bandits rushed forward one by one, but can Gu Zhang really give them them? How many of the first ones to board the ship survived?

After running for a while, Cheng Hong found a very embarrassing problem, he ran too fast, and Gu Zhang and they couldn't catch up!

It's embarrassing, if you leave them behind, who will you fight with? So Cheng Hong ordered the chain to be broken and the ship stopped!

After the chain was broken, the boat rose and fell with the waves, and the water bandits in the distance whined and screamed, Cheng Hong adjusted his position, the eight bull crossbows were wound, and the catapult loaded the explosives bag, so he waited for Gu Zhang for a long time!

And Gu Zhang's mind paused for a moment, and he thought in his heart: You run, try another run?

In fact, when Gu Zhang saw the Mao-class battleship with his own eyes, his eyes turned red! This is really a ship bigger than the five-tooth ship, if you get it yourself, it is estimated that you can walk sideways on the entire water!

It's just that this five-tooth ship is a little special, and this slap can't be shot at all! When it comes to modifying it in your own hands, the design of this ship is really a waste.

I thought it would be a hard battle to besiege a ship bigger than the five-tooth ship, but I didn't expect that this ship was simply a fat fish that came ashore! Gu Zhang regretted that he had given the order to board the ship ten times! You might even be able to get on board!

Cheng Hong looked at the swarming bandits, and originally wanted to say two words in his heart, but looking at their appearance, it seemed that there was no need for this!

Cheng Hong glanced at the flagship opposite, lit an explosive bag with his own hands, the trigger of the catapult was knocked down by the wooden hammer, and the explosive bag flew in an arc towards the fleet of the bandits, and a loud bang completely opened the prelude to the first stop of the water army!

When Niu Jianhu in the distance heard the sound of the explosives pack, he immediately ordered: "Full sails, full speed forward to the governor!"

It turned out that Niu Jianhu thought about it, although the sail warship could take advantage of the southeast and northwest winds, but after all, the headwind had to go in a zigzag, and it was not as fast as the tailwind, so Niu Jianhu had quietly driven the fleet to the northeast of Cheng Hong!

After hearing the sound at this time, the ship drew an arc and went straight to Cheng Hong's main ship!

And Cheng Hong is here to raise the sails and put the eight-bull crossbow at the same time, and now that he has done it with a clear sword and a gun, what strength is still hidden? In hiding, it is estimated that it will be eaten by this group of shark-like water bandits, and there is not even hair left!

After the first explosive bag exploded, the lighted oil canister the size of a human head and the sharp eight-ox crossbow gave the bandits endless blows beyond the range of bows and arrows!

Especially the explosive bag, if you have fried a fish, you must know that this explosive bag will not be extinguished if it falls into the water! As a result, the explosive bag fell on the ship, basically a bag of scrap boat, and the waves that exploded when it fell into the water rose a foot high!

Fortunately, there are these explosive packets, which exploded in the water and blew up the shark so dizzy that they didn't dare to approach, so that the water bandits who fell into the water could survive!

Cheng Hong's big ship raised its sails and flexibly drew an arc on the water, launching rumbling heavenly thunder and eight bull crossbows, as for this day, the Lei Gu family knew it, because he had other ideas and was particularly concerned about this aspect!

Although I have only shown my face in Tubo before, I can still find it if I check it carefully! Although the Gu family thought that this matter was a little incredible, they still wrote it down cautiously!

Today, after Gu Zhang saw the power of the explosive pack, he immediately thought of the heavenly thunder that Cheng Hong had used in Tubo!

And seeing his fleet swarming up but being bombed, Gu Zhang couldn't care about the big ship at this time, so he ordered: "Release the sulfur ships and burn them!"

Suddenly, a row of small boats appeared in front of the fleet, and three or five people were desperately rowing the boat! After all, Cheng Hong has never experienced a naval battle, and he doesn't know that there is such a thing as a sulfur ship!

Fortunately, Cheng Hong still had a trebuchet, and fortunately, there was also an oil tank, and an oil tank went down and accidentally ignited a sulfur ship, and in the billowing yellow smoke, the whole ship quickly turned into a torch in the water!

Even the rower on it didn't have time to jump off, and he burned into a burning man! It turned out that the ship was covered with grease and some secret ignition in addition to the sulfur!

This small boat actually burned with a whirring sound! Cheng Hong was shocked: "Quick, everyone change the rockets and set these ships on fire for me!"

It's just that it's a little difficult to light these little sampans, because in addition to the ignition items, this thing has a layer of fireproof skin on top! The oil tank can be ignited because the canister will directly break the skin, and this rocket is enough to choke.

And because the sails of the big ship have just been deployed, the speed has to wait for a while to get up, and this time is enough for this group of death squads to rush to the vicinity of the big ship!

"Quick, adjust the direction!"
