Luck can often play a decisive role in war.

In ancient times, there was a constant temperature in the Eastern Jin Dynasty to destroy Shu, when the soldiers who should have collected the troops of Mingjin actually made the gods run to beat the drum and march, and the Jin army, who could not figure out the situation, began to attack inexplicably, and finally won the victory by the gods, if there is no element of luck, I am afraid that no one will believe it.

And in modern times, the little devils attacked Pearl Harbor, hundreds of warships crossed 3,500 nautical miles, and in the end they were not discovered by anyone, how much of this is the element of luck?

Ali Ibn was also unlucky, and after robbing more than a dozen steel warships, he immediately ordered his men to tow them all back to Dashi, hoping to go back and study the structure of such warships so that they could be imitated in the future.

After all, it is not a long-term solution for them to surround Li Shimin here, the longer the time drags on, the closer the reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty will be, in case the reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty come, I am afraid that he will not be able to take away a single battleship.

But the ideal is plump, but the reality is skinny, and the goddess of luck did not take care of Ali Ibn this time, but sided with Li You.

When the big cannibal who dragged the battleship away left the nameless island and planned to return home by another route, he had a meeting with Li You and Li Zhen's North Sea Fleet.

At this time, Li You and Li Zhen had already run out of patience, and they just wanted to hurry up, if they hadn't met those big cannibals who robbed Li Shimin's entire ship, they wouldn't have thought about turning around and going to that island to see the situation.

After all, they had already searched countless islands along the way, and they had found no trace of the old man at all, so they felt that the old man should be farther away. Even if Ali Ibn had sent out the fleet a day earlier, or a day later, it was entirely possible that he would have passed by the North Sea Fleet.

However, there are not so many ifs and possibilities in this world, and if you are not lucky, you are not lucky, and Li You, who was in a hurry, realized that something was wrong almost as soon as he saw that fleet.

The fact that the steel battleship that was supposed to move forward with billowing smoke was actually towed, and the transport ships in front of them with sails flying on them were still flying the flag of the Great Cannibal, and so on is enough to explain a lot. And more importantly, the battleships on the opposite side not only did not catch up with their fleet after seeing them, but had the intention of turning around and leaving.

Li You and Li Zhen are just stupid, they roughly guessed something when they saw this situation, and immediately gave the order to besiege after looking at each other, and the entire North Sea Fleet pounced on them like wolves.

The big cannibals who dragged the battleship back were also stunned when they saw the rows of smoke-emitting battleships, and Li Shimin threw all the supplies into the sea when he withdrew the battleship, so those steel battleships had no mobility at all, nor did they have any combat effectiveness, and the consequences of meeting the Tang fleet can be imagined.

In this way, the fleets of both sides tried to escape and chase after each other, and it didn't take an hour for those big cannibals to be surrounded.

Li You had already red eyes when he saw this ship, and all the old man's warships were snatched away by the big cannibals, so it is unknown what the old man's fate will be.

So Li You, who blew up Mao, completely ignored Li Zhen's dissuasion, and directly issued an order to kill all of them.

More than 20 warships and hundreds of Zhenguan guns aimed their guns at the wooden transports almost at the same time, and most of them were sunk in just five rounds of shelling.

Then there was the side battle, all the sailors of the North Sea Fleet went into battle together, and the two ships sandwiched one ship between the more than ten battleships snatched by the big cannibals, and countless sailors rushed up and fought with the big cannibals who came up.

What has to be said here is that the soldiers of the big cannibals are indeed not so easy to deal with, and the North Sea Fleet can hardly fight any cheap battles in close combat, and almost every inch of the deck is fought with flesh and blood.

The distance was too close, the rifle was of no use at all, and the number of cannibals was not much less than that of the North Sea Fleet, and after a bloody battle, although the North Sea Fleet captured two battleships, it also lost nearly a thousand men.

"Your Highness, you can't fight like this again!" Li Zhen watched his men fall one after another, his eyes were also red, and he grabbed Li You and shouted: "They no longer have any ability to act, even if we put these warships here, they can't run, I don't have to fight anymore!" ”

But Li You couldn't listen to any persuasion at this time, and struggled hard and roared back: "Lao Tzu doesn't care, these big cannibals dare to touch my father, if you don't kill them all, Lao Tzu swears not to be a man!" ”

With a "bang", under the useless persuasion, Li Zhen pushed Li You and pressed him heavily against the bulkhead of the battleship: "Li You, calm down, look at the surroundings, there are all big cannibals, there are no people from us at all, don't you know what this means?!" ”

Li You was pressed against the bulkhead, staring, panting and staring at Li Zhen, looking like he was going to die together.

Seeing this situation, Li Zhen had to yell at him again: "Think about it clearly, these big cannibals are likely to have robbed the Emperor Taishang's ship and wanted to transport them away, and the Emperor Taishang is probably fine!" ”

Hearing that the old man was fine, Li You's state recovered a little, and he blinked his eyes and asked, "Are you okay?" You say my father is fine? ”

Seeing that Li You was finally quieter, Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the hand that was pressing him: "It's not sure yet, there are so many big cannibals in the water, it will be clear if you get a few questions." But you are now the commander-in-chief of the fleet, and you have to calm yourself down, and not just know how to kill the enemy like a reckless man. If the Emperor is waiting for us to come to our aid on an island right now, and you waste your troops here, do you think it makes sense?! ”

Li You was silent for a moment, and glanced at the battle that was still going on outside: "Pass the order, retreat!" ”

"Yes!" The herald who had just been hiding far away saw that the two bigwigs finally stopped fighting, so he dared to lean over, and ran out after receiving the order.

Li You watched the herald leave, snorted, and glared at Li Zhen while sorting out the clothes on his body, "The matter between the two of us is not over, you just pressed Lao Tzu, and when you return to Datang, Lao Tzu will fight you alone!" ”

Li Zhen and Li You looked at each other: "No problem, after receiving the Emperor Taishang, I will not move and let you have a good time!" ”

Soon there will be news of the emperor, for Li Zhen and Li You, who have been looking for someone for two months, it is simply great news, no matter whether the old man is alive or dead, there is finally news.
