On the Ji River, a fleet of 200 ships sailed slowly, loaded with soldiers and supplies. On a heavy cabin ship in the middle of the fleet, five people, including the blood-colored sky, the confused, the bright moon of the year, the second emperor of Qin, and the northern underworld, were dressed in armor, standing majestically on the armor, talking loudly about the expedition.

The blood-colored sky said loudly: "Xiaobai's army occupies the right bank of the mouth of Tanggukou at the mouth of the sea, and builds a naval base in this strategically located place. But on the left bank of the sea outlet, they sent only a small number of troops to deploy defense. This time, we will land on the left bank of the sea mouth and build a military base. Even if they don't accept it, but it's separated by a river, which is not good for the war, I don't believe they can do anything to us. ”

Mingyue said with a smile: "Yes, on the left and right sides of the estuary, the Zhoushui Alliance can only guard one with heavy troops. If they want to occupy both sides, then their forces will be split in two, and they are killing themselves. Even if they are unwilling to give in verbally, so what, in the end, we will have to give us half of the sea mouth! As long as we occupy one of the banks, the estuary of the Ji River is not up to his Zhoushui Alliance. ”

Qin II said with a smile: "I am very much looking forward to Xiaobai sending troops to take a few moves with us to see if his military talent is as high as his business talent." Perhaps, we will have a chance to cooperate with him in the future. ”

Among the five, the blood-colored sky, the bright moon of the year, and Qin II were the most active and optimistic. The North Underworld is relatively low-key. As for the obfuscation, he simply did not say a word, very silent, and the rest of the people did not know what he was thinking.

Qin II patted him and said with a big grin: "Brother Meng, what do you want?" ”

Confused and expressionless, he said: "It's not so easy to win Xiaobai. At least us.

I haven't taken advantage of him yet. If you don't want to lose too badly, it's better not to make too optimistic estimates and to be cautious. ”

Qin II said disapprerovingly: "Can he still grow six arms?" We have more than 200 cabin ships here, and the strength is about the same as his. It wasn't so easy for him to take out us. Brother Meng, if you are a novice, what can you do to stop us from boarding 6 on the left bank of the sea mouth? ”

Confused thought about it and shook his head.

Qin II laughed out loud, "Brother Meng is the best use of soldiers among us, you can't help it, what else can he Xiaobai come up with?" ”

But Qin II did not rejoice for long.

The Big Five soon received a report from their spies.

I just received the news that Jicheng's fleet is out. A new fleet of the Zhoushui Alliance also came out of Zhoushui Lake and sailed towards the Ji River. A total of 100 light sailing ships, 50 light fighting ships, and hundreds of light boats.

The Big Five once saw a "sample of a light sailing ship" from the Zhoushui shipyard. The properties are slightly better than the performance of the cabin boat, but not to the point of excellence, so the sailboat is not to be feared. But they had not seen the fighting ships, not even heard of them. What the attributes of the fighting ship were, they didn't know.

Their faces suddenly became solemn. Jicheng's huge fleet has just come out, and a large fleet from the Zhoushui Alliance has also come out, obviously coming at them. The Zhoushui Alliance dispatched one hundred and fifty ships to intercept it. It must be with full faith. This battle. I'm afraid it's inevitable. However, they did not know the situation of the fighting ship at all, and they could not predict the outcome or defeat.

The Jicheng fleet continued to sail slowly. At the same time, a large number of Jicheng spies were sent out, constantly entering the territory of Zhoushui from Route 6 and waterway, to inquire about the strength, attributes, itinerary and other information of the fleet of the Zhoushui Alliance.

Jicheng Fleet. The Zhoushui fleet sailed almost towards the confluence of Zhoushui and Jihe.

A large amount of ground information has been transmitted, and the Zhoushui Alliance fleet has sailed to a place ten miles away from the confluence of Zhoushui and Jihedi. However, the fleet stopped only 5 places away from the junction and began to load soldiers and supplies.

After listening to the report, the blood-colored sky asked the other people in confusion: "Xiaobai's fleet should be aimed at intercepting us in the middle of the Ji River, so that we cannot reach the mouth of the sea. In this case, we will naturally not be able to build a military base at the mouth of the sea, but strangely, what are they doing when they stop only 5 minutes from the intersection? Just to load soldiers and supplies? ”

At that time, Mingyue said: "The Zhoushui River is too shallow, which is not conducive to driving heavy boats. They are understandably loaded with soldiers and supplies in deep water. It would take at least a few hours to fill all the 150 ships. We are now only a few miles away from the junction, and it only takes half an hour to pass the junction. If we go first, they won't be able to intercept it.

Meng Chao suddenly said: "Immediately let the whole fleet stop, and you can't cross the intersection." If we go first, we're downstream, and they're upstream, and their boat is a little faster than us.

In the event of a war, it will be very bad for us. They also brought with them hundreds of small boats, which were incredibly fast if they were set on fire. We're all going to jump into the river. ”

The rest of the people also immediately woke up, and everyone knew that Zhou Yu burned Cao Cao's million-strong army. The order was issued, and the whole fleet urgently dropped anchor and stopped at a place only 3~4 miles away from the intersection.

But after stopping, the Big Five suddenly appeared, and their Jicheng fleet fell into a very embarrassing situation.

The fleet of the Zhoushui Alliance stopped at only 5 places at the junction, unhurriedly loaded soldiers and supplies, and deliberately did not go. The Jicheng fleet, on the other hand, did not dare to pass through the junction, and did not know what to do for a while when it was anchored in place.

I want to pass through the junction first, but I am worried that the fleet of the Zhoushui Alliance will take the opportunity to attack, which is not appropriate. But if not, what are they doing here? Is it just to drink the river breeze? In any case, they must pass. and if they go first, they will be attacked. The gap between the upstream and the downstream is obvious, and the geographical advantage has a great impact on the combat of the ships.

The sudden embarrassment of the Jicheng fleet caught the Big Five off guard.

Qin II said ruthlessly: "Xiaobai, this is deliberately embarrassing us.

We divided more than 30 ships and took the initiative to enter Zhoushui to intercept Xiaobai's fleet! The rest of the ships quickly passed through the junction and headed for the sea. ”

Bei Ming said: "How long can thirty cabin ships intercept?" I'm afraid it may not be possible to do it in an hour or two. It will take nearly half a day for us to reach the mouth of the sea, and the Zhoushui Alliance fleet will still be able to catch up with our fleet. ”

Qin II immediately came up with another idea, saying, "What if all our ships go up to meet us, enter Zhoushui, and fight Xiaobai's fleet in a decisive battle?!" ”

Bei Ming said: "We are downstream, they are upstream, and it is still unfavorable." Moreover, the Zhou water is too narrow, and the fleet can't put up a position, so it is better to fight them in the Ji River. We have at least a few more ships than they do. However, they deliberately didn't come out of Zhoushui, I'm afraid they wanted us to go first. ”

Qin II said angrily: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what do you have to do?" Could it be that Xiaobai just stopped somewhere, and we just stayed here stupidly, and we didn't have a problem with him? What else is going on in this battle? ”

The blood-colored sky was also a little anxious, and said: "The longer the time drags on, the more perfect his military base in Tanggukou will be, the more unfavorable it will be for us, and he is not afraid of delaying time at all." But we can't afford to delay, we have to find a way to do it as soon as possible! Brother Meng, what do you think? ”

Meng Chao shook his head and said, "We suffered a dark loss this round, and Xiaobai set up this kind of formation at this intersection, clearly to take advantage of us at this intersection." To get through here, we're going to have to pay some price. It's almost impossible to get past without paying any price.

I still agree with the second brother's opinion, send 30 cabin ships into Zhoushui, intercept Zhoushui's fleet, and the rest of the more than 170 ships will quickly pass through the junction and go to the sea, board on the left bank of the sea, and build a military base. ”

Everyone was helpless. "Okay, let's do it!"

The first thirty cabin ships of the Jicheng fleet lifted anchor, went to the intersection, and turned into the Zhoushui River, and took the initiative to sail towards the Zhoushui fleet. The rest of the ships followed and began to lift anchor and pass through the junction.

The Zhoushui Alliance scout cavalry discovered the latest movements of the Jicheng fleet and immediately rushed to report back to the Zhoushui fleet. Qin Xiaobai patted a player in tattered leather armor next to him and said, "Brother, it's up to you!" ”

The player nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, Boss Bai, take people's money to eliminate disasters for others, I will definitely do this thing beautifully!" ”

With a fierce glint in his eyes, he turned to his players and shouted, "Brothers, fire!" When this deal is finished, let's go back and eat and drink spicy food! Then he jumped off the sailboat, got into the boat, and shouted for a group of brothers to start moving in the boat.

Thousands of miles away, becoming a king, a god king and others were on the sailboat, watching the big man take action with a group of players. The God King was a little displeased, and spat disdainfully, "A group of bandits! ”。 Not because of anything else, he had suffered at the hands of the Liukou players of the Lingzhi Kingdom, and he had no good impression of these Liukou bandits.
