"Governor, are you sure you don't control the fire?"

The deputy general looked at Zhou Yu with some uncertainty and asked.

"Sure. ”

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "Earlier, I thought that the enemy's long-range attacks would be carried out all the time, in this case, if our firepower continues to show a very explosive display, it is very likely to scare the enemy's subsequent fleet, which is not a good thing for our plan." ”

"But now, seeing that their bed crossbows could not penetrate the back of our defending ships, the enemy abandoned long-range attacks and opted for close-range face-piercing combat. In this case, if we still deliberately control the firepower, it will make Lan Yezhou suspicious. ”

"After all, if we don't have any means at all and just stand here and wait for the enemy army to come and encircle, this is too abnormal, Lan Yezhou can become the Governor of the Sailors of the Jinshui Kingdom, and lead all the sailors of the Jinshui Kingdom, he is not a stupid person, he can think of this. ”

"So, now we are deliberately exposing our strength and telling Lan Yezhou that the reason why we dare to wait for them here to join us is because we have the confidence. ”

"But Lan Yezhou is very confident in his Jinshui Kingdom fleet, and when he thinks that he already knows what our hole cards are, he will definitely rely on the advantages of the many Jinshui Kingdom warships to carry out close-range face-to-face battles. ”

"Wait until that time, it will be the moment for us to really fight! Now, first cooperate with Lan Yezhou's performance to make him comfortable, and then let him despair!"

When the lieutenants heard Zhou Yu's words, they suddenly realized what was going on.

There was a sigh in my heart, the governor deserves to be the governor, he is powerful, he thought of so much in a short period of time, and the gap between his people and the governor is really big enough.

However, thinking about Zhou Yu's age, these deputy generals of the water division were even more shocked in their hearts.

Zhou Yu is not yet twenty-five years old and is so powerful, if he has more than ten years of combat experience, he will definitely become a member of the Southern Yan Kingdom in the future.

At the same time, they also sincerely admired His Majesty the Emperor to whom they were loyal.

forcibly promoted a son from a small family to the position of the governor of the water division, regardless of any obstruction, and gave Zhou Yu enough trust.

This kind of courage is not available to everyone.

Maybe in the entire Yuzhou, only His Majesty Lu Feng, the emperor they are loyal to, has the guts.

After all, it was the position of the Naval Governor, in charge of the entire kingdom's Naval Fleet, and his position was very, very important.

To be honest, many of these lieutenant generals were originally the generals of the naval division of the Southern Yan Kingdom, although the naval division was under the name of infantry at that time, but what they really did was the task of the naval division.

When they first learned that His Majesty the Emperor had sent a hairy boy in his twenties to be the Governor of the Navy, none of them were convinced.

But now, there is no one who is not convinced.

Zhou Yu's ability to show convinced them.

They also admired His Majesty the Emperor Lu Feng's vision even more, and they really never missed it!

"Let's go down and arrange it!"

"Yes!"

The lieutenants immediately went down and arranged their own affairs.

Soon, the hundred warships used for testing in the Jinshui Kingdom had already reached the attack range of the Southern Yan Kingdom's naval division warship catapult.

"Put!"

With the general's order, the catapults on the battleships under Zhou Yu's command were launched in unison.

Bang bang bang!

Huge rocks smashed on the enemy warships that rushed towards them, immediately causing a small area of aura to explode and shatter the deck.

The soldiers around the stone drop point were even more boneless.

Some of the warships were hit by multiple stones, and even smashed several large holes, leaked directly into the water, and sank in the river.

Under the attack of the battleship catapult, the hundred battleships that rushed over lost more than twenty battleships in the blink of an eye.

"Charge, charge!"

However, because of Lan Yezhou's order, even though it was a heavy loss, the general in charge had to forcibly order the remaining battleships to continue to rush over.

"Bang bang bang!"

With a loud bang, several ships sank for every distance they advanced.

"Is this a catapult? Why is it so powerful?"

Vice Admiral Lan Yezhou, who was in the middle fleet, looked at the heavy losses of the hundred warships sent out by his side to test, and asked in surprise.

"As expected!"

Lan Yezhou smiled coldly.

"Metropolitan Governor, what do you mean by that?" The other lieutenants around him all looked at Lan Yezhou, not understanding what he meant by this.

"At the beginning, Zhou Yu didn't move, waiting in place for our battleship to encircle, I didn't have too many ideas, because I thought that our strength was definitely superior to Zhou Yu, so I didn't have to think too much, I just needed to arrange the battleship to attack. ”

"But it wasn't until before that I looked at Zhou Yu squarely, because although he was young, he was not a wasted person who had no skills. So, when I think about it, I'm guessing if Zhou Yu is waiting for the encirclement to be closed without moving, if there are any hole cards in his hand that are useless. ”

"Now it seems that I guessed correctly, the catapults on these battleships are where Zhou Yu's hole cards are!" Lan Yezhou said.

"This ......"

Several lieutenants glanced at each other, then looked at Lan Yezhou, and said, "Grand Duke, what are your plans now?"

"Waiting for the opportunity. ”

"What chance?"

"Zhou Yu's chance to reveal his flaws!"

A cold light flashed in Lan Yezhou's eyes, and he said: "I don't believe that the sailors under Zhou Yu's command can still ensure that the army formation is not chaotic when facing an attack, if this is really the case, then we can only withdraw our troops now, and then look for opportunities later." ”

"But if Zhou Yu shows a little flaw, then we will immediately press on the army and ensure that Zhou Yu's entire army will be attacked from this flaw!"

"Yes!"

Hearing Lan Yezhou's order, all the lieutenants responded loudly.

Then they all stared at Zhou Yu's military formation, waiting for Zhou Yu's military formation to reveal its flaws.

The battle on the other side continues.

Of the hundred warships that the Jinshui Kingdom was responsible for testing, in the end, there were less than forty warships left to rush in front of the black battleship.

A hundred battleships, in order to break through the blockade of the battleship catapults, the losses directly exceeded sixty percent!

Fortunately, it was finally close to the black ships, and those battleship catapults could not attack at such a short distance.

"Board the ship, kill!"

The main general gave the order, and the remaining soldiers in the battleship immediately began to move, preparing to board the ship to fight.

"The whole army obeys the order, absolutely do not let the enemy troops board the warship, and kill them all in the river for me!"

"Kill!"

On the defensive battleship under Zhou Yu's meeting, many soldiers also came out and killed these soldiers who wanted to board the ship.

For a while, the two sides fought together, killing with broken arms and flying around, and the flesh and blood were blurred.

The blood stained the river around the defending battleship even red.
