"Get out!" Song Heihu kicked the little boss down again, "Bring some more people to investigate!" If you still don't find anything, don't roll back! ”

"Yes, yes, thank you...... Thank you for the grace of the master! The little leader got up, kowtowed twice, and fled. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Lao Tzu really raised a bunch of waste!" Song Heihu scolded and retracted his gaze, stretched out his hand to serve tea, but found that the tea bowl had been smashed by himself, so he smashed his lips and shouted outside, and then looked at the second master of Black Mountain Island on the side, "Second brother, tell me your opinion!" Do you think that army will turn around and look for our trouble? ”

Shui Fei, like Song Heihu, has a sturdy body and a full face, but he is relatively younger, about thirty years old. Flying on the water is certainly not his real name, but a bandit. After so many years of mixing in the rivers and lakes, the name of Flying on the Water has become louder and louder, but the real name is becoming more and more unknown.

Seeing Song Heihu going crazy before, Shui Fei couldn't help but scold: At the beginning, the master advised you not to provoke that officer and army sailor, you want to go! Poke out the basket but want to be angry at the people around you, what a fucking pick!

On the bright side, Shui Fei naturally did not dare to challenge Song Heihu's authority. Although he was ruthless, he thought that compared to Song Heihu, he was just a small thing, so when he heard such a question, he hurriedly piled up a little brother-like smile on his face: "Big brother, don't worry!" Even if the officers and soldiers come back, what is there to fear? How much bargain can you get in front of us? It's not that our Black Mountain Island hasn't let the government worry about it before, but when was it not when you were beaten by the brothers led by the eldest brother? ”

"You can fucking think about it! Even if the sky falls, there is nothing to be afraid of in your eyes! Song Heihu scolded. Shaking his stout body, he took a few steps and said, "Yes." Ever since we tied our heads to the waistbands of our pants and did this business, we haven't been afraid of the damn government anymore! Those wine bags and rice bags are going to fight Lao Tzu's idea, and they still owe some fire. But heroes are also afraid of capsizing in the gutter, and it is not easy for the brothers to work hard to build such a small family business, and everything must be careful. What's more, the officer and army sailor we met that day is said to be under the command of Pang Yue, the general soldier of Huguang, and Pang Yue is not a good stubble, and it is much more difficult than those wine bags and rice bags before! ”

"Big brother has a point. We have to be careful. The younger brother suggested that we send more people to investigate and keep abreast of the movements of that officer's army and sailors. On the other hand, we should hurry up and make arrangements to prepare the brothers and then go and collect more ships to strengthen the camp. Such. Even if they turn around and come to us for trouble. We can deal with them the same way as before, so we won't be in a hurry. ”

"Okay, that's it! These days, you and the three leopards will worry more about snacks! As soon as the "three leopards" were mentioned, Song Heihu, who had just dissipated his anger, couldn't help but be angry again, "The three leopards who sell * by my mother, as soon as I have spare time, I think about going ashore to visit the kiln to make money, and when I return to the island, I will wilt my head all day long, and I am not afraid of fighting!" This time you keep an eye on him a little more. If there is anything wrong with him, he will directly tie him up and send him to Lao Tzu! ”

"Yes. Eldest brother! Also, since those officers and soldiers are more difficult, should we send someone to Yuezhou to ask General Ma and General Xu of the Qing Dynasty to send someone to support? Last time they fought in Changsha, we also helped them transport grain. ”

"Fart! Those two soft eggs were beaten by the Ming army themselves, and they couldn't protect themselves, and what ability did they have to support us? Besides, it's not like we haven't dealt with that surnamed Ma! You go and invite him over, and you have to take the food and drink, and you can't get a few thousand taels of silver? Ask him to come over and the birds! Don't go to them unless you have to! ”

"Yes, yes, little brother remembered!"

......

On Montenegro Island, the water thieves were in full swing, reinforcing the camp and collecting ships, and the small teams sent out to "hunt wild food" also returned to the base camp one after another to strengthen the defensive force.

For a time, the vicinity of Black Mountain Island was full of people, with dense sails, hot and joyful. The water thieves were busy with their work, cheering and shouting from time to time, and their "morale" was quite high. In their eyes, fighting the officers and soldiers who came to suppress them was no longer a terrible thing at all, but a pleasure.

......

Hundreds of miles away, the surrounding area of Chenzhou is already a tense and busy pre-war phenomenon.

In the large battalion, the officers and men of all battalions in Huguang Town have reduced the amount of daily training, all vacations and outings have been cancelled, and ideological education has increased significantly. In the General Staff Division, the staff officers worked overtime to make the final details of the battle plans; The grain delivery convoys of Chenzhou Wei and the rest of the guards continued to arrive, and the military rations prepared for wartime were piled up more and more in granaries one by one; The General Manufacturing Bureau sent people to the barracks to bring back the damaged armor and weapons one by one, and sent the truckloads of brand-new weapons and armor; In the major factories, the craftsmen sweat like rain, but they seem to have forgotten their tiredness......

On the afternoon of 25 October, the Fubo Battalion, which had only rested for a day, finished rearing, pulled its anchor, and rushed along the Yuanshui towards Dongting Lake.

Compared with the rest of the battalions, the officers and men of the Fubo Battalion, who embarked on the journey again, were more relaxed. They all knew that the combat mission they had gone on this occasion was just a small episode before the large-scale expedition of the whole army.

......

On the morning of 30 October, the Fubo camp encountered the main force of the Montenegro Island pirates on the Dongting Lake, 30 miles southwest of Montenegro Island.

On the pale green lake as far as the eye can see, two large black-pressed fleets are gradually approaching, and the sails are spread and murderous.

The Fubo Battalion, which has experienced the training of regular sailors, has a strict battle formation, with more than 100 warships of various sizes and sizes. The large sand boats carrying soldiers and artillery are the main body in the center, the medium-sized bird boats and thunder boats that are flexible, fast and easy to maneuver are located on the two wings, and the small warships such as bluff ships and sentinel ships are distributed on the periphery to serve as guards, which can be attacked and defended, and there are almost no gaps to attack.

The guns and guns in the hands of the sergeants on the ship, the rows of rockets placed next to the ship, and the rest of the firearms all exuded a chilling murderous aura, especially the dozens of cannons installed on the sand boats, bird boats, and thunder boats, and the muzzles of the black holes pointed forward, which was even more daunting.

The number of warships of the pirates even exceeded that of the Fubo battalion, but most of them were small and medium-sized ships, and their weapons and equipment were far inferior, with few guns and artillery, and many minions even carried harpoons and simple spears. However, the overall "morale" of the water thieves was high, and most of them were arrogant and fierce, and the true colors of the outlaws were revealed. One of the largest gunboats was its flagship, and Song Heihu was surrounded by a large number of big and small leaders to command the front line, pointing at the Fubo battalion fleet, talking and laughing freely, and from time to time boosting morale, offering rewards and promises, and each time the minions under his command cheered.

"I really don't know whether to live or die!" On the flagship of the Fubo battalion, He Guoyuan put down the clairvoyant mirror and snorted contemptuously.

"My lord, the soldiers are all ready, just waiting for the attack!" Chen Shangtu's tone was as usual, but his eyes were already full of eagerness.

"Good! This battle cleared the way for our town's army to go on an expedition, and it was also the first time that our Fubo battalion had confronted the enemy head-on since its formation, and its significance was not insignificant. Although the clown on the opposite side of the beam jumping is very introverted and too worried, we can't wait to ignore it, so we take out the skills we usually practice and send them all into this vast cave! Whether the army can send troops in time and whether our battalion can win the honor of winning the first battle are all in one fell swoop! Gentlemen, please! ”

"Obey your lordship's orders!"

"Pass the order, fire!"

With He Guoyuan's order, dozens of artillery pieces in the fleet of the Fubo battalion roared one after another, and the shells rained down on the pirate warships.

Song Heihu also ordered to adjust the formation and fire a counterattack.

For a time, the always calm Dongting Lake rumbled, and from time to time shells fell into the water, setting off a column of water that soared into the sky.

At the same time as the cannon sounded, the fleet of the Fubo battalion continued to approach the water bandits. As the distance shortened, the ship's soldiers began to shoot at the opposing pirate ships with weapons such as guns, rifles, rockets, and bows.

Above the water, the shouts shook the sky, and the bullets rained down.

Not long after the battle, the differences in weapons and equipment began to be revealed little by little. The pirates' artillery quickly fell to the upper hand, and the bows and arrows and the few old guns could not compete with the sophisticated birds, flintlock muskets, and rockets that were sprayed on the ships in the hands of the Fubo battalion soldiers. More and more of the bandits were wounded and killed, and their bodies fell into the lake like dumplings, turning red on the surface of the lake.

The battle situation became more and more unfavorable, but Song Heihu did not panic, commanded the big ships in the team to retreat, avoiding the firing range of the main artillery of the Fubo battalion, and sent a number of flexible and mobile boats in the formation to carry the fierce and daring people, against artillery fire, bombing arrows, like arrows from the string towards the Fubo battalion fleet, intending to start a broadside battle.

Under the command of the officer, the non-commissioned officers of the Fubo battalion shot desperately, and the explosion like a bean explosion became one after another, and the white smoke in the air became thicker and thicker.

The black pressure rushed to the water thieves one after another, but the brave men still stepped forward one after another, stepping over the corpses of their companions and diving into the water to continue walking, all kinds of beast-like cries one after another.

In a short time, the water thieves jumped out of the water like grasshoppers, with short-bladed axes in their mouths, climbed the sentry boats and bluffing boats on the periphery of the Fubo camp, stared at the blood-red eyes, and shouted for slaughter. Even the bird boats and thunder boats at the top of the two wings were caught up by the hooks that suddenly rushed from the water, and one by one, like apes on the water, they climbed onto the side of the ship with the help of ropes, took off their weapons, and shouted and rushed towards the Fubo battalion soldiers on the deck.

It seems that inspired by this scene, the pirate gunboats, which had retreated one after another, also gained courage and took advantage of the gap between the artillery bombardment of the Fubo battalion to fire back.

By this time, the battle between the two sides had become more and more intense. But when I heard the sound of killing all around, I heard the rumbling and gunning of the cannons on the water.

On the flagship of the Fubo battalion, He Guoyuan frowned, called the standard-bearer herald beside him, and issued military orders one after another. (To be continued.) )
