Chapter 787: In Distress
Outside the cabin, the officers and men of the Guards were holding large shields, and they were so protected that they could not be penetrated. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the handsome cabin, all the positions by the window were firmly guarded by the female soldiers with loaded guns.
The naval division has its own combat rules of the naval division, and Li Zhongyi has always believed in the principle of making the best use of people's talents, so he simply ignored this matter, so as not to cause chaos in the Zhou Dao that was under his command.
This so-called: self-knowledge is also!
Li Zhongyi was dragged back to the handsome cabin, and Zhu Niang ordered someone to contact Zhou Daozhong, and soon, the female soldiers sent back to report the details.
"Master, it's a small fishing boat of the Koreans, suddenly loaded with grain and left the shore without authorization, approached the center of the river, and was discovered in time by the lookout post on the mast......"
Li Zhongyi listened to Zhu Niang's report, couldn't help but squint his eyes, pondered it again and again, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said sharply: "That small fishing boat is probably just a bait on the surface, and the real threat is likely to come from underwater." ”
Zhu Niang has always been a blind admirer of Li Zhongyi, and as soon as Li Zhongyi said this, she immediately believed it, and immediately broke out in a sweat.
Zhu Niang, who was born in a wealthy family in the northwest, although her skills are abnormally strong, there are at least 100 party members and Khitans who died under her sword and bow.
However, like the black whirlwind Li Kui, Zhu Niang is a typical landlubber, not only does she not understand water, but also does not understand the essentials of water warfare.
"Master, what should I do then?" Zhu Niang was so anxious that she turned around, grabbed Li Zhongyi's arm, and refused to let go.
Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, took Zhu Niang into his arms, patted her fragrant shoulder gently, and whispered: "Silly lady, you care about me too much, so much that you mess up." ”
Zhu Niang raised her pretty face, looked at Li Zhongyi's delicate and familiar face, took a deep breath, and said, "Master, the slave family knows that you can swim, what if that...... You swim to the shore by yourself, and then let someone who knows how to save us. ”
Li Zhongyi was moved into a mess, the bamboo lady was a true love for him!
"Silly lady, by the time I swam to the shore, you would have already become the woman of the Dragon King." Li Zhongyi couldn't help but suck Zhu Niang's cherry lips, and kissed her so hard that she was almost out of breath before she stopped.
"Hmph, whoever dares to rob a woman of old capital, then a white knife must go in and a red knife come out. Even if it is the dragon king, he has to peel off its dragon scales and draw the dragon tendons. Li Zhongyi said it lightly, the bamboo girl who has been snuggled in his arms, but she can fully understand that her man is definitely not lying or intimidating, or talking about fun.
"It's a cold winter month, and the water temperature of the Licheng River is extremely low, so even if the Goryeo people sneak into the water, it will be difficult to support it for long." Li Zhongyi smiled coldly, "Pass my military order, adjust the crossbowmen to the sides of the sides, but anyone who emerges from the water will be killed." ”
"In addition, the enemy is likely to have an ambush on both sides, and we can't get close to the left bank, so we can simply go down two miles down the river first."
Li Zhongyi thought very clearly, the width of the Licheng River was only more than 100 meters, and if the fleet stayed in place or continued to swim upstream, it would obviously leave an opportunity for the Goryeo people who were secretly making trouble.
If, by virtue of the trend of the river, you can quickly move down two miles, that is, one kilometer, in such a cold and biting river, even an iron man will not be able to withstand the serious consequences of serious hypothermia in the body.
Li Zhongyi's character has always been that before he makes a decision, he will definitely think about it repeatedly, and once he makes up his mind, he will not return!
After Zhou Daozhong received Li Zhongyi's military order, he did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and immediately issued an order to cover the retreat of the handsome ship at full speed.
Because it was a handsome ship exclusively for Li Zhongyi's use, Zhou Daozhong took great pains to organize the handsome ship into the best wave-proof, most tightly protected and heaviest tonnage in the entire naval fleet.
The fly in the ointment is that the cabin below the waterline of the handsome ship, although it is equipped with a waterproof cabin, is still the weakest link in the protection of the entire handsome ship.
Zhou Daozhong has long been a core member of the Li Party with the word "Li" engraved on his head, and if Li Zhongyi misses the slightest, his family will obviously not survive.
Even if the imperial court only asks Zhou Daozhong about one person, is it possible for the soldiers of the Li family, who are extremely loyal to Li Zhongyi, to let his whole family, or even the whole clan, go?
It is not easy for the huge handsome ship to turn in the center of the river, but in the thoughtful and meticulous service and thoughtful thinking, nearly 100 oarsmen have already been arranged on both sides of the ship's side.
When the ship was first built, Zhou Daozhong specially instructed the boatmen to dig oar holes in the two wings of the ship's side, and arrange the best position for the oarsmen to rock the oars.
In everything, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, Zhou Daozhong's main consideration at that time was that if the huge handsome ship encountered the fire attack of the thieves on the narrow Bianhe River, it could be flexibly and flexibly evaded.
Zhou Daozhong himself did not expect that the first distress of the handsome ship would be in the Licheng River in a foreign country.
"Dangdang...... ......Under the command of the crisp brass bell, the helmsman quickly filled the rudder on the right, and at the same time, the oarsmen on the starboard side swung their oars together in the loud sound of the trumpet.
Li Zhongyi wanted to go to the window to watch the excitement, but Zhu Niang's seemingly weak delicate body blocked his way.
"Alas, lady, you, you......" Li Zhongyi sighed for a while, and he could only be helpless for the extremely persistent bamboo girl, looking at the window and sighing.
"Master, you are not used to water warfare, you go to the window, there is no benefit except for increasing the danger." Zhu Niang pierced the truth with righteous words, which made Li Zhongyi not embarrassed.
Zhu Niang, who was born in a wealthy family in the northwest, has a straightforward personality, which often makes Li Zhongyi very embarrassed.
However, Li Zhongyi, who is an old fritter in officialdom, just likes to eat bamboo girls. In the final analysis, Zhu Niang is wholeheartedly for Li Zhongyi's goodness, loyalty and thoughtfulness coexist, which makes him empathize.
It is precisely because Li Zhongyi realized that Zhu Niang's big things are not confused, and the small things on the face are not enough to worry about.
"There are people in the water, there are people in the water, quick, shoot him......" Just as Li Zhongyi was sitting down and picking up the tea cup, he suddenly heard someone on the left side of the boat screaming loudly.
Li Zhongyi couldn't help but be taken aback, originally, he estimated that someone would attack from the water, but in fact, he was not very sure, it was just a guess.
Unexpectedly, the Korean people really sent someone to dive over to kill him in such a cold season, hehe, his heart is not small!
Now that the enemy in the water has been discovered, and Zhou Daozhong is a veteran general who has commanded the water division for many years, Li Zhongyi has no need to worry about anything at all.
Li Zhongyi gently blew away the tea leaves floating on the top of the soup, took a sip, and when he put down the tea cup casually, he inadvertently glimpsed that on Han Xianglan's snow-white and delicate right wrist, there were dazzling nail marks.
Ahem, woman, when facing a fierce opponent, the careful eye inevitably goes too far, right?
