Chapter Twenty-Four: Dispatch of Troops

Li Tang counted the new group of villagers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 It is strange to say that there is only one SS level, and it is still a special talent - a senior shipbuilder. There are 5 other S-class people, 46 A-class people, and the rest are not of high rank.

There is not a single general, it is estimated that the original generals were transferred by the barracks, and after the barracks were destroyed, the qualifications of the generals were cancelled.

However, among this group of people, there are quite a few excellent soldiers. Among them, there are a large number of 3- and 4-star soldiers, 32 5-star soldiers, 1946 4-star soldiers, 528 3-star soldiers, and 208 2-star soldiers.

It's just that none of these people have comprehended internal strength.

It seems that this village is the kind of pirates who fled as a whole, half bandits and half people, and the overall quality is not like that of the tsunami.

After all, Tsunami is a professional sailor, and they are surrounded by the best and most combative groups. Moreover, several of the generals under Tsunami are all tiger talismans granted by the government, and even Haitao has tiger talismans they bought.

Li Tang saw that the number of this group of people was four times that of the tsunami, but the highly qualified personnel did not even have one-tenth of them.

"The system is too picky, what kind of garbage is being sent!"

Li Tang really wronged the system, according to the average level, the qualifications of this batch of pirates are already good, and there are S-level talents. Can these people compare to the tsunami? The tsunami was a task for them, and Li Tang had to complete it, and there would be a rich reward for completing it. And this group of people, did the system ask Li Tang to eliminate them.

Li Tang saw that there were many excellent soldiers inside, and he thought that it was not necessarily a good thing for the soldiers to stay in the village, so it was better to go out and continue to rob. After all, robbery is definitely a profitable thing!

There are more robberies, the routines are familiar, and the risks are reduced. Why not do something that is less risky?

Before you go out, the defense of the house must be arranged!

This Ye Ju, for the time being, don't be in charge of housekeeping, and be responsible for the safety of the village. The little thing that was produced in the village, and the income from robbery, was simply not worth mentioning.

Li Tang decided to transfer Ye Ju to a middle-level military general. Other than that. Two high-force soldiers, Sun Guang and Sun Jun, were selected to become junior generals and formed an infantry team to defend the village. Although these two guys have good force values, their intelligence is too low. Therefore, Li Tang had to transfer Ye Ju to become a military general to restrain them.

In addition, 7 soldiers including Nie Jun were selected and transferred to become sailor generals.

Rewarding military generals is a good way to entrap his subordinates. Therefore, Li Tang must do these things himself.

After the completion of the general, Li Tang decided to leave and choose about 1,000 good people, and turned into sailors, led by eight generals on the original Shark pirate ship, together with more than 10 red horse boats and small sailing boats, including the Shark, Mayflower, and Peace Ark, to assist in the defense of Linhai Village.

Now, Tsunami's generals have become Li Tang's cronies. After all, they have fought an offensive and defensive battle together to win more with less, and they have won it completely. And it was done in the face of the tsunami's fierce opposition. These people who already worship the tsunami admire Li Tang even more.

In addition, before Li Tang left, he took their hands one by one and earnestly told them that they had handed over their home to them, and they must defend it well. What a trust! Therefore, they all swore to defend Linhai Village to the death.

In addition, about 500 good people were transferred to the infantry battalion through the infantry battalion, led by Ye Ju, Sun Guang, and Sun Jun.

As for the coordination of the navy and army, of course, Ye Biao is in charge. In addition, Ye Biao was also responsible for organizing militias, samurai, rangers, sailors, etc., to assist in the defense of various places, as well as the deployment of materials.

And Li Tang led twelve generals such as Ye Hui, Tsunami, Haitao, Zhang Meng, Hua Qing, and Nie Jun, plus the Roaring Sky Dog, etc., to take 3 pirate ships and 6 red horse boats to prepare to attack again.

This time, there was no more sailing boats to follow. The main consideration is that whether it is supply or capture, Li Tang can carry it with him, and he does not need a transport ship.

In addition, the slow speed of small cargo ships will slow down the overall speed of the entire fleet. Li Tang no longer understands war, and he also knows that a single type of warship has the strongest combat effectiveness.

On this expedition, Li Tang brought 4 9-star soldiers, 3 8-star soldiers, 27 7-star soldiers, 33 6-star soldiers, 57-star 57 people, 1128 4-star soldiers, and 556 3-star soldiers.

There were no sailors, because the sailors did the work, and these soldiers would do it.

The crowd saw them off on the dock without mentioning it.

In other words, Li Tang and the other fleets drove out mightily.

The first ship is the Great White Shark. The captain of the tsunami, the first mate of the waves, with more than 540 sailors of various stars.

The left and right escorts the Red Horse Boat Seawolf and Seal, each with 30 people.

The middle ship, named Whale Shark, is equipped with more than 540 sailors from various stars, including captain Li Tang, first mate Nie Jun, second officer Zhang Meng, and correspondent Roaring Sky Dog.

The left and right guards the Red Horse Boat Golden Boy and the Jade Girl, each with 30 people.

The first ship, named Tiger Shark, captain Ye Hui, second mate Hua Qing, equipped with more than 540 sailors of various stars. The left and right guards the Red Horse Boat Ganchai and the Agni, each with 30 people.

Li Tang and the others had just sailed southwest out of the waters of Linhai Village for about half an hour, and the Seawolf in front of the left reported that three ships had been found in front. One was supposed to be a cargo ship, about 200 meters long, with the Great Han Dragon flag. The other two were about 120 meters long and had flying eagle flags, which appeared to be pirates.

The dragon flag cargo ship was fast and kept on the run. Presumably, it is to get rid of pirates by virtue of the speed advantage.

But the pirate ship seems to know better about the currents and risk characteristics of this sea area. Although it did not catch up with the cargo ship, the cargo ship did not abandon the pirates. It is estimated that as long as there is a mistake in the operation of the cargo hold, it will be caught up by the pirate ship.

However, when this cargo ship saw that there were 3 large ships in front of it, and it was also flying the flag of the dove ship of peace, what kind of bird is this?

Moreover, looking at the shape of the hull, it is either a military ship or a pirate ship. But is there a fleet of sailors in this area? No! That's the pirate ship.

Zhang Fu, the boss of the ship, secretly complained to himself, this is the rhythm of a wolf in front and a tiger in the back!

With the speed of the ship, there was still a glimmer of hope in escaping the pirates. Now that there are pirates intercepting it, it seems that there is less luck in the ferocity.

However, from the beginning of the escape, Zhang Fu already knew that he could only run with the fleet, and there was no possibility of stopping and surrendering!

All sailors also know this rule, and if they don't run away when they encounter pirates, they can save their lives. If you want to run, you can't hesitate and run with all your might, otherwise the consequences of being caught will be very serious.

At this moment, it is too late to turn to avoid. If you turn a small corner, you can't avoid the pirate ship in front of you, and if you turn a big corner, you will definitely be intercepted by the pirate ship behind.

What to do? For the sake of today's plan, drop the sails and surrender! Somewhat, surrender now, the other party is in a good mood, and he will spare himself.

In fact, Zhang Fu doesn't have to think too much. Before they could turn their sails, the pirate ship behind them had already caught up and threw their claws to grab the cargo ship. Some of the sailors on the cargo ship were desperately ready to jump overboard.

At this time, Tsunami received Li Tang's order:

"The whole team is on alert, waiting for an opportunity to attack the two pirate ships and rescue the cargo ship."

At this point, the pirate ship picks up the cargo ship and begins to jump, cutting off the sails of the cargo ship. The pirate ship, on the other hand, has begun to tie the cargo ship with a cable and also drop its sails to prevent the two ships from colliding and disengaged.

Now that the speed of the pirate ship has been lowered, it is a good time to strike. Tsunami decisively issued an order for 6 red horse boats to attack. Take advantage of your speed and shoot the sails of your pirate ship with rockets. 3 warships were on the periphery preparing to intercept the pirate ship and escape.

It stands to reason that the two pirate ships saw Li Tang's fleet. The robbery should be stopped, and Li Tang's fleet should be carefully guarded.

But there's a reason they didn't.

First of all, this sea area basically knows that the Flying Eagle Fort is a hegemon here, and the average small pirate does not dare to provoke it, as long as the Flying Eagle flag is displayed, the general ships are evasive;

Second, this cargo ship really annoyed the pirate ship, they chased this cargo ship for 2 days and 2 nights, and every time it was in front of them, they just couldn't catch up, the speed was a little worse, and they were aggrieved.

Third, there are a total of 7 pirate ships chasing this cargo ship. The other 5 ships were left behind because they couldn't keep up with the speed. However, it should also be on the way to come, once it comes, it is not certain who will eat who will eat whom!

Therefore, these two pirate ships relied on and dared to rob in front of Li Tang and them, not at all afraid that Li Tang would attack them.

Even, when they saw the tsunami sending ships to attack them, the pirate captains on both ships were a little excited. As long as they attract these three pirate ships for a while, when the large group of people comes, they will catch turtles directly in the urn, and they will be captured, which is another great achievement!

Under normal circumstances, a tsunami is not a battle for which it is not prepared. Especially at such times, it is necessary to stay away and be careful. Anything will only be acted upon if it is planned.

However, this time it was Li Tang's order again, and he could only obey it. From the last attack on the pirate village, he strongly opposed it, but Li Tang insisted on going his own way, and the result was a complete victory. Tsunami knew that the lord loved to take risks, and he had never suffered losses, and it was impossible to persuade him.

For today's plan, we can only fight quickly, so as not to have too many dreams at night. The quickest way to win this battle is to set fire to the ship.

Although the ship is made of wood, it is not easy to ignite by rockets under normal circumstances.

The same is true for sails, the sails of ancient China are mostly hard sails, the efficiency is much higher than that of Western soft sails, canvases are generally made of animal fur, cotton and linen, etc., but the surface is coated with mud, blood, etc., one is to ensure the sealing of the sail, improve the efficiency of wind propulsion, and the other is to prevent fire.

The sail after the mud has dried is also not so easy to ignite.

This time it was an encounter, and neither side was too prepared. Set fire to the ship, not even carrying such equipment as a fire boat, at most some clay pots filled with grease, set fire and throw them on the ship. However, the grease inside is not like asphalt, and the combustible material with super adhesion is still easy to extinguish when poured on the ship.

Attracted to the hatred of the Mayflower fleet, the pirate ship immediately spared the cargo ship and began to turn to the Mayflower fleet. They were not afraid of the tsunami, and calmly commanded the three ships to approach the two pirate ships, ready to engage in the battle.

At this time, Li Tang sent the Golden Boy to catch up with the cargo ship. He also informed the captain of the cargo ship that they were also the children of the Han Dynasty, and hoped that the cargo ship could go to Linhai Village for temporary shelter and repair sails.

Of course, the captain of the cargo ship was unwilling, but he couldn't help it! The meat is on the cutting board, and now the sails are mostly damaged, and the speed is very low.

If you escape, not to mention that Li Tang still has a big boat, so many red horse boats are enough for yourself. What's more, there are many ships behind the pirates, and once they arrive, they still can't run!

Whether Li Tang wins or the pirates win, he will definitely be unlucky, there is no doubt about it.

However, if the pirates win, it is estimated that it will be difficult to save the lives of their boatloads. Who annoyed the pirates by choosing not to surrender in the first place, but to flee?

However, if Li Tang wins, it seems that he will lose some goods, and it is estimated that his life should be saved.

Soon, Zhang Fu's cargo ship, under the guidance of the Golden Boy, slowly sailed to Linhai Village, without even the slightest intention of escaping. When they arrived in the village, the cargo ship was quickly picked up by the dense red horse boats and docked at the wharf. Zhang Fu was also invited by Ye Biao to the village to discuss matters.

The flowers bloom two and one on each branch, saying that this Zhang Fuzheng was nervous, and when he chatted with Ye Biao without a word, Li Tang and they were fighting fiercely.

What is the most brutal battle, of course, is the broadside battle!

This was Li Tang's first hard battle, and the difference in the number of people on both sides was not too large.

There were about 2,200 members on the two pirate ships, about 1,600 pure combatants, and 6 generals.

Li Tang has 1,300 soldiers and 13 generals who can be put into battle, plus Howling Sky Dog, 4 9-star soldiers, and 3 8-star soldiers.

In contrast, there are few combatants on Li Tang's side. However, what Li Tang brought out were all high-level combatants. The qualifications are higher than other teams, and the combat effectiveness is ten times higher! Especially the top-level combat power, which is beyond the reach of ordinary teams, is absolutely super strong.

As soon as the broadside battle began, things went beyond the pirates' expectations, and the battle was completely one-sided.

Those pirate soldiers were not the enemies of 8-star and 9-star soldiers at all, and even the generals couldn't make a few moves, and they were killed by 4 of the 9-star generals.

There were also two captains, ready to resist stubbornly, and were blacked out by the sinister howling dog. After all, no one would guard against a dirt dog in the heat of battle.

As soon as the six main leaders died, the rest of the pirate crew had little cohesion. The so-called defeat is like a mountain, and the other minions either surrender or retreat into the ship after the death of their high-level combat power, and resist stubbornly!

However, it didn't work. Because, the deck is controlled, and hiding in the cabin can only starve to death.

However, the tsunami is very worried. He was worried that the night would be long and dreamy, so without waiting for the pirates in the cabin to be cleared, he ordered the two ships that had just been captured to immediately raise their sails and return to Linhai Village.

Pirates who enter the cabin don't bother and just hold the exits. Everything will be planned when we return to Linhai Village.

Perhaps the tsunami was too cautious, and until the fleet returned to Linhai Village, there were no accidents.

However, as soon as the ship arrived at Linhai Village, the pirates who had taken refuge in the cabin had no choice but to surrender obediently. Because, they dare to hide, and the confidence of stubborn resistance lies in reinforcements. Now, they have all arrived at other people's nests, and there are no reinforcements yet, and continuing to resist can only be a dead end, and it is better to surrender.

In fact, about an hour after the flotilla left, a flotilla arrived. However, only a large number of dead bodies and arrows stuck in the dead bodies were left at the battle site, indicating that a brutal naval battle had broken out here.

This fleet was the follow-up fleet of the pirate fleet that was chasing Zhang Fu's cargo hold. When they arrived at the battlefield, they found that the war was over. Moreover, his two warships are also missing, and the dead bodies at sea are obviously his brothers. Then, finding the murderer is what they must do in front of them.
