Seeing Lin Zhaoqi's arrangement, several generals around him didn't know what he wanted to do.

Adjutant General Li You said with some puzzlement: "The general ordered the outside to continue the attack, but why did the general let us build a barrier, besides, this is not the enemy army is about to attack."

"Although this order was given by Tian Pet, the supreme commander of this army is me, I can't let the soldiers die easily, didn't you ask me why I want to build a barrier, after retreating outside, the Yan army will inevitably think that our army is tired, and soon they will definitely charge us."

Hearing Lin Zhaoqi's words, all the generals were convinced, and at this time, a small colonel ran to Lin Zhaoqi to report: "Yihou dispatched a large number of sailors to attack, and the ninth echelon suffered heavy casualties."

"Tian Pet didn't know how powerful Yi Hou was, leaving only one echelon was like completely scaring him, but fortunately, he knew that it was useless to attack the ships to the north."

After speaking, Lin Zhaoqi said to Yue Pingxiao beside him: "Pingxiao, I will give you three echelons of 3,500 people, you must intercept Yihou's sailors on these large and small ships, and you can't let them advance behind our army under any circumstances."

Yue Pingxiao immediately led the men and horses to drive the boat to the center of the river, and in front of the Qi soldiers was the red-dyed river water and floating wooden debris, and a short time before they arrived here, Yi Hou's sailors had already annihilated all the ninth echelon.

Looking at the huge warships of Yihou's naval army and the catapults on the ships, Yue Pingxiao knew that he must not engage in long-range consumption with the other party, so he immediately gritted his teeth and ordered the soldiers to attack.

In command of this army was Zhu Mao, the former governor of the Yishui Naval Army, and now he was appointed as the Governor of the Naval Army under him in the future, Zhu Mao did not pay attention to the other party's scattered boats at all, and immediately ordered the catapult to crush them all.

However, because the ships of the Qi army were too small and scattered to attack, the powerful artillery fire of the catapults could not play a good role, so Zhu Mao had to change his tactics and lead the warships to speed up, using the huge hull to crush the opponent's ships, and then the archers on the warship fired arrows at his army in unison.

Yue Pingxiao did not have the slightest fear, and led the soldiers to drive the warship to charge.

Here, as Lin Zhaoqi expected, Wen Yang took a cadre of soldiers and horses to the vicinity of the Qi army's fortress, and just wanted to carry out a sneak attack when he encountered a fierce attack by the Qi army, Huang Yi and Li You each led thousands of men and horses left and right to come out together, seeing that the retreat was about to be cut off, Wen Yang hurriedly fled back with the remnants of the defeated general.

Wen Yang returned to the position, Mu Huan counted the soldiers and horses, and lost more than 2,000 people, but there was nothing to be done, Mu Huan had to order the soldiers to continue to garrison.

Suddenly, at this moment, a bloody lieutenant came to Mu Huan's side, staggered to the ground and said: "Fangcheng has been conquered by the Qi army, and I am the only one in the defenders who ran back alive to report the news."

"What, Fangcheng has been conquered by the Qi army, and it is where our army's grain is stored, and this is bad."

As soon as Mu Huan's words fell, he only heard a cannon sound coming from behind the army, and someone came to report: "The Qi army is attacking from behind our army and has conquered the two camps under the mountain."

"Now, our army can only abandon this place."

After that, Mu Huan summoned the generals and ordered a specific retreat plan, and after the generals received the order, they burned the camp and all the items that could not be taken away, and then quietly retreated in the direction of the southern mountains.

Lin Zhaoqi saw that the banner of the Yan army on the opposite peak had disappeared, and knew that Tian Pet and they had succeeded in forcing Mu Huan to retreat, so he quickly dispatched troops to seize this highland.

Tian Pet did not seize the high ground in time or pursue Mu Huan, but led the army back to Fangcheng to prepare to attack Zhuo County, Lin Zhaoqi looked at the map and decided to march to the northeast, where the Yan army was sparse and most of them were camps and strongholds.

Li You stayed behind to guard the newly established grain base, and Lin Zhaoqi and Huang Yi led the army to the northeast, and here, the two sides of Yan and Qi, who were fighting in Yishui, were also fighting fiercely.

At this moment, the river water has been dyed a blood red, and there are many corpses of soldiers of the Qi and Yan armies floating on the river, and more are broken boards and debris of the ships of the Qi army.

Yue Pingxiao stood on a small boat and looked over, and found that the warship in the middle of the left side of the Yan army's ship formation was extremely conspicuous, this warship was larger than the others, and the soldiers on the center mast were giving orders with flags.

Seeing this, Yue Pingxiao knew that this was the flagship of the Yan army, and their main general was definitely on this ship, so he immediately ordered twenty small boats to attack from the left flank to attract the enemy, and twenty small boats to attack from the right flank to attract the enemy.

According to Yue Pingxiao's order, the two fleets of the two fleets quickly sailed to the front of the left and right flanks of the Yan army, and when they reached the effective range of the bow and arrow, they launched rockets like locusts.

The Yan warships were equipped with catapults only on larger sea ships, and the rest of the long-range weapons were only bows and arrows and ballistas, and the warships on the left and right wings were medium-sized ships that had to fight back with bows and arrows.

The Qi army ships were extremely light and flexible, and easily shuttled in the rain of arrows, and their bow was equipped with a wooden plank so that most of the feather arrows were inserted into the wooden plank, seeing that the large warships did not have any obvious advantage in front of the Qi army's small ships, the flagship's flag gave the order to them to attack and crush the enemy.

This was the case on both the left and right flanks, the Yan army dispatched several warships to charge, and saw that there were only some small transshipment ships left around the Yan army's flagship, and the larger warships also had a certain distance from the flagship, so Yue Pingxiao personally led a warship echelon to rush towards the Yan army's ship formation.

Seeing the Qi army charging over so desperately, all the Yan warships fired arrows at them together, during which the Qi soldiers were constantly shot and fell into the water, and the ships were constantly turned into ashes under the attack of catapults.

Yue Pingxiao temporarily changed his strategy, leaving most of the ships and soldiers for long-range cover, while he led seven ships to continue the charge.

Due to the occasional attacks by the slingers in the enemy army, the remaining ships did not dare to stay where they were, and they fired arrows at the enemy ships as they went.

The Yan warships did not care too much when they saw that Yue Pingxiao had few people and few ships, but instead concentrated their firepower on attacking these remaining ships, and Yue Pingxiao was able to take the opportunity to lead his troops into the Yan army's ship formation.

At this time, Zhu Mao saw this raiding Qi army in the flagship board house, and instantly anticipated their intentions and hurriedly ordered to intercept them.

Because it was in the center of the ship formation, the small boats around the flagship were not too vigilant, and after just reacting, several of them had been fired by rockets, and a medium-sized warship on the left quickly came to block the way of the Qi army.
