In November of the fourth year of Jian'an, a naval battle took place in the Yellow Sea.

The two warring sides are the Changcen pirates and the Han navy. This naval battle is an encounter. Since the beginning of winter, due to the chaos of the situation in Liaodong, the Changcen pirates have not gone to sea to plunder. This also caused Changcen's supplies to become increasingly scarce, and Feng Chi finally decided to order Changcen pirates to attack and prepare to attack Donglai. Unexpectedly, on the way out, the Changcen pirates encountered the Han Navy.

After Gan Ning was ordered, he sent ships to look for fighters and prepare for a decisive battle with the Changcen thief and the cicada thief.

But the two pirates lived in seclusion, which also made Gan Ning feel very helpless.

finally waited for the Changcen thief to dispatch, how could Gan Ning let the other party go?

So, the two sides played a game at sea. The Changcen thieves dispatched thirteen sea ships, but Gan Ning only brought six sea ships, disguised as merchant ships, and crossed the Yellow Sea. Naturally, the Changcen thieves discovered such a fleet, and immediately changed their goals, deciding to sack the merchant ships.

In this way, Gan Ning's navy and the Changcen pirates encountered each other in the sea area fifty nautical miles east of Ocean Island on a misty morning.

The battle lasted from early in the morning, one until noon.

The fog on the sea had lifted, and eight ships were burning, engulfed in flames.

Two of the building ships are the Han Navy, while the remaining six are all pirate ships......

The losses on both sides were extremely heavy. The Changcen thief was the first to decide to withdraw and prepare to withdraw from the battlefield.

Thinking that their own ships have a numerical advantage, they can easily destroy the opponent. Who knew that the opponent's sea ship was equipped with a long-range attack weapon similar to a catapult, which was specially used to throw fire oil fills. The oil was also mixed with saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal powder. Of course, these three items were also the basic raw materials of black powder later, but they were not invented by Liu Chuang, but an ordinary craftsman in the Shijiutuo dock. It was discovered by accident and quickly popularized in the dockyard.

Of course, gunpowder was still not made.

It was only discovered that when these three materials were added to the oil tank, the combustion could be accelerated and the destructive power was more powerful.

Unlike in the past, when the three raw materials were mixed with fire oil and fire oil, the burning speed was unimaginably fast. Moreover. The fire is difficult to control, and once it burns, it spreads quickly.

To this end, the Shijiutuo Dockyard produced more than 1,000 fire oil fills and secretly sent them to the Yushi.

The slapping rod equipped on the ship of the Han Army Building. Combined with this special fire oil filling, it will cause great lethality to the Changcen pirates.

At the beginning of the naval battle, two ships were hit by fire oil......

However, the ferocity of the pirates was also revealed at this time. After the two pirate ships were hit by the fire oil tank repeatedly, seeing that they could not be saved, they actually drove the ships and rammed the Han military building ship. So much so that the two Han army ships lost their combat capability. Damage is strict.

The Han army still has four sea vessels.

And after the Changcen pirates lost six sea ships, there were seven left.

At this time, the Changcen thief had already sensed the strength of the Han army. Prepare to flee the battlefield.

It was at this time that a building ship with a brocade sail suddenly went on a rampage and intercepted a pirate building ship.

Gan Ning took the lead and rushed to the pirate ship. After killing twenty-one pirates, Shun Lì rushed into the pirate house's finch room. Kill the ship's pirate leader on the spot. At the same time, Zhou Cang and Du Qi joined forces to intercept the next pirate ship.

The remaining sea ship took the opportunity to take cover and fired oil canisters at the pirates who tried to come to the rescue, forcing them back alive......

Seeing that the two pirate ships had fallen into the hands of the Han army, the remaining five pirate ships were also panicked, did not dare to continue entanglement, and fled in a hurry.

The Han Navy became famous in the Yellow Sea after this war.

Changcen, Bailing Island.

Standing on the pier with his hands in his hands, overlooking the sea.

On the surface of the sea, a few black spots appeared, his eyes narrowed, and his face showed a solemn look.

"General Feng, it's the ship of the cicada building."

A scout came to report, Feng Chi nodded, then boarded a sea ship, and shouted: "Open the boat, go to sea with me to meet the master of Li Da." ”

The three ships slowly left the pier and headed out to sea.

Feng Chi stood on the deck, but there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

In Lelang County, there are two strong pirates. One is Li Dayin's cicada thief, and the other is the Changcen thief in Feng Chi's hands.

However, the two pirates started with different models.

Li Dayin was originally the son of a pariah, and during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Li Dayin joined the Liaodong Army and served under Gongsun Yan. Because he grew up at sea since he was a child and was proficient in boat operation, he was valued by Gongsun Yan. At that time, Gongsun Yan was in Liaodong and lacked materials. So he gave up the idea of using pirates to raid the coast and rob the people of goods, so he appointed Li Dayin to form a cicada thief.

After Li Dayin returned to occupy the cicada, he gathered a group of his former partners.

Lelang County is in chaos, with pirates, bandits, and bandits rampant. Most of his partners are outlaws, who can endure hardships and dare to play with their lives. With the support of Gongsun Yan behind him, the cicada thieves developed into a pirate with more than fifty ships in just a few years. After Gongsun Yan died, Gongsun Du occupied Liaodong and was quite jealous of Li Dayin. Li Dayin is also a strong person, and in a fit of anger, he took the cicada thief and left Xi'an Ping and returned to the cicada's hometown. And through its powerful force, it will occupy the county seat in one fell swoop.

Subsequently, Li Dayin took the cicada as the foundation and developed rapidly.

Under his command gathered Goguryeo people, Liaodong County people, Fuyu Guo, and Karasuma people...... Tens of thousands of people have become an extremely powerful force in Lelang County, and they are called cicada thieves.

When Gongsun Du saw Li Dayin leaving, he simply cut off contact with Li Dayin.

Li Dayin was self-reliant and nominally loyal to the Han family, but in fact he specialized in pirates and roamed the sea......

And the Changcen thief, who is as famous as Li Dayin, took a different path.

Feng Chi is a child of the Changcen Feng clan.

The Changcen Feng clan claims to be a descendant of the Yellow Emperor's general, and it is the Changcen Wang clan.

During the Xiping period, the Goguryeo king Bogu invaded Lelang. even robbed Lelang Taishou's wife, and Lelang County immediately fell into chaos.

In order to protect themselves, the Feng clan formed Xiangyong.

Because of his infinite gallop and mastery of the art of war, he took him as his leader to defend his hometown.

It's just that with the financial resources of the Feng clan alone, the roots can't support such a village warrior, not to mention the lack of food, grass, materials and ordnance...... Thereupon. The Feng clan moved the pirates' minds, poured all their wealth, bought six building ships, and formed the Changcen thieves. With his art of war, Feng Chi quickly strengthened this pirate force. Become a force that should not be underestimated in Lelang County, rampant on the sea.

Changcen thieves gathered nearly 100,000 people, there were more than 80 sea ships, and because of the fame of the Feng family, their status in Lelang County was quite high.

is different from Li Dayin, who occupies the cicada thief, the Feng clan is a wang clan, so he has a wide range of contacts. Moreover, most of its subordinates were Han people, and they were strongly hostile to the Goguryeo people.

The two pirates do not interact with each other, and sometimes even clash.

However, the wind is also good. Li Dayin has always maintained restraint, although there are constant conflicts, but they help each other. Become the most powerful force in Lelang County.

Bailing Island is the foundation of Fengchi.

He took the initiative to invite Li Dayin to come this time. And for the first time in a decade.

The reason why Li Dayin was invited was that Feng Chi was also forced to do so. He is now faced with an extremely difficult problem to decide, and he needs to consult with Li Dayin.

After all, everyone is the actual controller of Lelang County, so it's better to discuss something.

The ships of the two pirates met in the sea about twenty miles from Bailing Island.

After Li Dayin's boat and Feng Chi's boat converged on the sea, Feng Chi did not hesitate at all, and stepped along the board to board Li Dayin's boat.

"Da Yin, don't come unharmed."

Feng Chi is tall and tall, with a bookish air.

Li Dayin, on the other hand, was born short and stout, with dark skin.

The lines on the face are sharp and angular, and a pair of eyes are scorching.

He was dressed modestly, and at first glance he looked like a fisherman sleeping in the open. When standing with Feng Chi, it looks even more vulgar.

Don't underestimate Li Dayin because of his appearance.

With the background of the son of a pariah, he became the leader of the cicada thieves, gathered tens of thousands of people, and became a force that no one in Lelang County could ignore...... Such a character, no matter how crude it looks, should not be underestimated. At the beginning, many people who underestimated Li Dayin have now been buried in the sea. Those who know him well know that this guy looks rude, but he is indeed a cunning fox.

Feng Chi is nicknamed Jin Ao, and Li Dayin is called the Water Fox.

Judging from the appearance of the two of them alone, it may be most appropriate to change these two nicknames.

Li Dayin grinned and said, "Brother Feng is calling, how dare Dayin not come?"

It's just that Brother Feng, you came to me so solemnly, there must be something good to take care of. Damn, the situation in Liaodong this year is too chaotic, and tens of thousands of brothers under my command are screaming with hunger...... If it weren't for Brother Feng, you looking for me, I would be preparing to go to sea. ”

The sea breeze is fierce.

The wind is blowing, and the brocade robe is hunting.

He subconsciously wrapped his robe tightly and said to Li Dayin: "The sea breeze is too strong, let's go to the cabin to talk." ”

Li Dayin showed a strange look on his face, and said with a smile: "Brother Feng, if you don't dislike my dirty kennel, I will naturally welcome it." ”

As he spoke, Li Dayin turned sideways to give way and led the wind to the gangway to the finch room.

There is a nautical chart hanging in the finch room, and the facilities are messy.

In a fire pit, a charcoal fire burns to drive away the cold.

"Come on, come on, this is the Yangchun wine I just found from the Central Plains, and it hasn't been opened yet...... Brother Feng, you are here, and you must have a good wine to entertain. ”

As he spoke, he asked one of the maidservants in the finch room to warm the wine.

Li Dayin is lustful, and there are dozens of wives and concubines in the family, and every time he goes to sea, he will also bring beautiful maids with him.

Don't think that these beautiful maids are easy to deal with, these maids in Li Dayinque's room are all good at fencing, and their swordsmanship is extremely clever.

"Dayin, I ...... a few days ago Planted! ”

Feng Chi sat down, took a sip of wine, and then got straight to the point: "I think you are occupying the cicada, and it is impossible not to know about this matter." ”

The smile on Li Dayin's face gradually faded.

He looked at Feng Chi and sighed after a while, "Brother Feng, is the Han army really so powerful?" ”

The Changcen thief was defeated on Ocean Island, and as one of the two actual controllers of Lelang County, how could Li Dayin not know? It's just that he didn't expect Feng Chi to say this matter unabashedly. This also shows that the strength of this Han army may be beyond imagination.

"This Han army is different from the Han army you and I have seen before."

Feng Chi said softly: "In terms of combat power at sea, although my Changcen army does not dare to say that it is stronger than your Zhan Cicada army, it is about the same.

Our thirteen sea ships were defeated by the Han army's six sea ships, losing as many as eight ships and taking nearly 2,000 prisoners. Moreover, according to my reports, the Han army was equipped with catapults on board, and even had an extremely powerful means of fire attack. As soon as my people and Han Junfu fought, two ships were destroyed...... Moreover, the generals of the Han army also seem to be proficient in naval warfare, and their command methods are extremely clever. And he was so strong that according to my men, one of them boarded the boat and killed him in the bird's room.

Da Yin, I'm very worried about ...... right now."

Li Dayin was silent!

Feng Chi continued: "Now, the Han army is building a water village in the Yu family, which is obviously aimed at you and me.

Coupled with their amazing naval combat power, well-trained, and powerful means of fire attack, in time, they will definitely control the entire bay.

However, at present, the Han army does not seem to have stormed one of Lelang.

The reason why they found me this time was probably because of the matter of the eldest son...... Da Yin, you don't hide it from me, but the eldest prince is called? ”

Li Dayin was silent for a long time, raised his head and said, "Brother Feng, although I have a gap with Gongsun Du, I was taken care of by the old lady back then.

Now that the Gongsun clan is in trouble, the eldest prince has indeed sent someone to invite me to Xi'an to help in the war...... I'm also hesitant to go over. ”

Feng Chi showed a wry smile on his face.

"If you send troops, you will be the enemy of Uncle Liu Huang, are you ready?"

"This ......"

When Li Da heard this, he looked even more distressed.

He scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "Of course I don't want to be an enemy of Uncle Liu, but you also know that once Uncle Liu Huang stands firm in Liaodong, he will definitely recover Lelang." When the time comes, you and I will inevitably be enemies of Uncle Liu Huang, and I don't seem to have any other choice, do you say yes or no? ”

Feng Chi said: "It's not that you don't have any other choice, you just don't want to choose." ”

Li Dayin was silent again and lowered his head.

Indeed, he has another choice, that is, to surrender to Liu Chuang.

But the problem is that Li Dayin is used to being at ease, and letting him surrender to Liu Chuang can't help but feel a little guilty. At the same time, he didn't know how Liu Chuang would treat him after he surrendered to him. Different from the situation of Fengchi, Fengchi is a Lelang Wang, and it is inextricably linked with the heroes and powers of Lelang. And he, Li Dayin, is the son of a pariah, and he is strong in Lelang, but he has always been alone......

Liu Chuang may treat Feng Chi like a guest, but what about him? Is Liu Chuang willing to accept him, a pirate born as a son of a pariah?

Li Dayin, very entangled!
