Chapter 235: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas

At noon that day, there was no more noise on the sea near Yandu County, and the Yellow Turban Army, which usually flaunted its might on the sea, was standing hundreds of meters away from the coast at the moment, quietly watching the huge warships sailing on the sea, but the once familiar sea surface had changed a group of people.

The "real world" map is too large, and many parts of the coastline from Iron Sail City to Yandu County are uninhabited, and even if there are some villages or player territories along the sea, with their skills, they can't go out fishing or sail more than twenty miles of coastline. Due to the improvement of navigation technology, the fleet of Iron Sail City could not enter the deep sea to explore, but it was still easy to sail fifty miles away from the coastline, and no trace was found along the way.

Moreover, the "scout" boats or fishing boats used for detection move at a relatively fast speed among similar vessels, but compared to four-masted sailing ships or building ships, this speed is not half a point. Even if the patrol ship found an invasion of a foreign enemy within 10 miles, the difference in speed was too large, and it was either too late to report, or it was caught up with the ship and killed, and it was impossible to convey the information back in the first place.

The forces of the Yellow Turban camp in Yandu County built a lot of ships during this period of rest, and before they had time to sail out of the dock that day, they were surrounded and blocked by more than a dozen four-masted sailing ships and two building ships. The ships that survived by luck could not escape the pursuit of the four-masted sailing ships, and the senior or special controllers were not laughing, and the ships that escaped in a straight line were like live targets in their eyes, and the dozens of ships accumulated by the Yellow Turban Army were almost completely wiped out in one morning, and the only remaining dozen or so ships were sent out to carry out tasks in the morning before they escaped.

This whole process is seen by many people, this is the first time they have seen a two-masted sailing ship or more, some people once fantasized about relying on a shipwright to fight all over the East China Sea, now think about it and feel that they are too naïve, with the size of the ship against this sea giant, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a suicide, mantis arm blocking the car.

The warships of the Yellow Turban Army were all wiped out, naturally some people were sad and some were happy, and the city wall facing the east of Yandu County was almost full of people who came to watch, and the Yellow Turban Army, which had been rampant and domineering for more than ten days, was like a lost dog at this moment, and it was inevitable that people would be very happy. Seeing those giants on the sea, the four-masted sailing ships and the building ships didn't even have the county government, and it seemed that the navy of the imperial court camp came to support, and the morale was greatly boosted.

The Yandu County Commander was very cautious and sent a boat over to inquire about the news of the fleet to confirm whether the person who came was "one of his own".

Lu Shuang followed the legion on the expedition this time, riding on a silver-quality warship harvested from the White Shark Pirate Regiment, standing out among the tall four-masted galleons and building ships, and he could recognize at a glance that it was the warship that the main general was riding.

Facing the envoy sent by the Yandu County Order, Lu Shuang did not show the slightest hint of flattery, because he knew that after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he could be above the county order in terms of strength and status. Moreover, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the order of a county, the days were not good, and he was always worried that after the city was broken, his head would not be hung on the city gate, and if there was no Lu Shuang to send troops to support, it would be difficult to say whether the victory or defeat in Yandu County would be said.

However, it is impossible for Lu Shuang to bear all the battles of the war, so the casualties are too great, and the county commander and county lieutenant still need to send troops to cooperate. After revealing the identity of General Pi and the city lord of Feitian City to the envoy of Yandu County, he took out the envelope scroll of the Guangling County Guard asking Lu Shuang to destroy the Yellow Turban Army of Gaoyou Ping'an Sheyang County, and the envoy finally did not have any doubts about Lu Shuang's identity.

Lu Shuang gave the messenger a letter, asking him to bring it to the county commander or county lieutenant, and secretly ordered some things, hoping that the county commander and county lieutenant could launch a night attack on the Yellow Turban Army camp, just attract their attention, and they could appropriately reveal some rumors, and leave the rest to Lu Shuang to solve.

The envoy kept in mind every point Lu Shuang said, but when he returned, he was skeptical of Lu Shuangsheng's plan to attack the west, although the Yellow Turban Army in Yandu County was not as many as in Hailing County, but it was also composed of several Yellow Turban forces, and even the county order did not dare to fight hard, and he was confident that he could annihilate the other party with a single alien force?

But he looked back at the battleship behind him, and thought to himself that it was worthy of being an Inhuman force that could destroy the White Shark Pirate Regiment, a navy of this size, I'm afraid it was not even as good as the county government, maybe his strength could really annihilate the Yellow Turban Army.

After watching the envoy return to the county seat from afar, Lu Shuang, in order not to put pressure on the Yellow Turban Army, ordered all the warships to withdraw south from this sea area and rest for a day. Seeing that this terrifying fleet had finally left the sea, the Yellow Turbans did not let go of their hanging hearts, and sent a lot of "scout" boats to reconnoiter around, for fear that they would hide in a nearby harbor and give a fatal blow when they went to war.

The speed of the "scout" boat was very fast, and at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army received the news that the fleet had not been seen in the sea area within a hundred miles of the vicinity, and the coast along the line was also not found, and it seemed that it had really left.

The leader of the Yellow Turban Army acted quite cautiously, and ordered his subordinate units not to be careless, and to try not to do some risky things these days. However, before he could finish his emphasis, he received another piece of news that the navy of the county government of Yandu County, taking advantage of the heavy damage suffered by the Yellow Turban Army, poured out of its nest, and some of the Yellow Turban Army villages built around the coastline were destroyed, and several docks were lost. The "scout" boats on the sea were also destroyed by the ships of the county navy, but the "scout" boats of the Yellow Turban Army were too scattered, and the county navy let them go after destroying a few of them, and then hung the captured Yellow Turban Army on the deck and flaunted their might at the Yellow Turban Army on the shore.

This behavior of the county navy greatly angered the generals of the Yellow Turban Army, and many high-ranking generals couldn't help but scold this group of NPCs for being shameless, and would only follow behind their thighs to pick up heads, and asked to go to war to teach the court camp a lesson. However, everyone is just fighting with their mouths, and they also know in their hearts that it is still very risky to rush into battle at this time, after all, the usual shrinking turtle actually took the initiative to lead the battle today, and there must be a demon when something goes wrong.

Sure enough, at about ten o'clock in the evening, some players were already lying on straw mats or beds ready to sleep and rest, but they were called up by the chiefs and centurions, asking them not to remove their armor and wait for orders on the spot. It turned out that the player forces of the Yellow Turban camp sent some spies into the county seat, and suddenly received news at noon today that the county order was going to launch a night attack on the camp of the Yellow Turban Army, and asked the player forces in the county to send troops to fight and set off on time at 0:10. It took a lot of effort for the spies to secretly send the information out to the Yellow Turban Camp twenty miles away, and it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

The leaders and generals of the Yellow Turban Army urgently held a meeting to discuss the next countermeasures, in fact, they had already formulated a corresponding response plan for the night attack, but this time they learned of the county government's action plan in advance, so they naturally had to make good use of it.

At one o'clock in the morning, tens of thousands of people sneaked up near the Yellow Turban Army camp, and the Yellow Turban Army in Yandu County set up three large battalions, which were in a triangular shape. However, due to the topography, one of the camps is far away from the other two, several miles apart.

When the players of the imperial court camp quietly came to the near point, they found that there were many sentry posts in the camp, and from time to time there were Yellow Turban soldiers who came out to patrol, looking like they were waiting for the battle. However, the more normal the defense, the more the court players think that there is no problem, and if they find that the Yellow Turban Army camp looks defenseless, then there is a conspiracy.

Soon, the players of the imperial court camp launched an attack on the Yellow Turban camp, and for a time the flames were in flames, and both sides suffered casualties. Although the Yellow Turban Army tried its best to resist, there were more people in the imperial camp, and under the leadership of several generals, the players broke through the gate in one fell swoop and fought with the Yellow Turban Army in the camp.

As more and more imperial troops entered the camp and set fire to the supplies and baggage, some people found some clues, and this night attack was too smooth. The Yellow Turban Army in the camp seems to be small in number, except for the Yellow Turban Army at the beginning, the Yellow Turban Army in the next battle seems to have been prepared, defending and retreating in an orderly manner, wanting to introduce the imperial army into the center of the camp, and every step will cost a huge price.

It's a pity that they haven't been able to inform the commander of this information, and something happened behind them, and the robes that stayed outside the camp were surrounded by the Yellow Turban Legion that suddenly appeared, and the Yellow Turban Army in the camp no longer retreated, vowing to encircle and encroach on the imperial army.

At the critical moment, fortunately, the main general who led the team this time was an experienced player, and he immediately ordered the players on the periphery to hold their positions without taking a step back, leaving enough space for the players who were retreating. Then concentrate all the high-end generals to forcibly break through, forcibly tear a hole from the layers of encirclement, and flee in another direction with the remaining more than 20,000 people, because since the night attack has been exposed, maybe there are Yellow Turban troops waiting for them on the way back to the county, and they can only retreat in different directions.

The overall strength of the players who participated in the night attack this time was higher, and seeing the ducks in their hands fly away, the Yellow Turban Army was not good at giving up, and the breath swallowed during the day could not be vented on the fleet, so they could only be angry. If the Yandu County Imperial Court camp is deprived of these players, then the strength of the defending city will be dealt a big blow, and even before they are resurrected, they can launch a strong attack on the county seat.

The leader of the Yellow Turban didn't expect the other party to be so tenacious, and originally wanted to save a little bit and didn't send the Yellow Turban elite to fight, but he accidentally slipped away for them, so he took several special generals and the Yellow Turban elite to bite the imperial army. And the gold boss is bound to win, these players can't escape the Yellow Turban Elite, and the Yellow Turban Boss is confident that he will bite this piece of fat. 2k reading web
