Under the command of Xiao Wanlong, the rebels completed the task in less than half a month. They built more than a hundred ships of all kinds in the White City. In the following week, Xiao Wanlong led the soldiers through a simple naval training. The training of the men this week was very hard, because many of these soldiers were born in the Misty Mountains, and they had never seen the sea in their lives, and although the rivers in the mountains had trained them in water, they were still not enough for regular naval warfare. Fortunately, Xiao Wanlong has done a lot of homework in order to defeat the Republic over the years, and he has also learned some theoretical knowledge of real naval warfare, and all these things he learned from books have now come in handy. In this way, this half-layman taught the following group of laymen hand-in-hand, but he was also handy, but if he really ran into an enemy with formal military training, he was afraid that it would be difficult to deal with it, but now he had to send an arrow, and using the waterway to attack Seris was already a sure thing, and it could not be changed, so Xiao Wanlong could only pray to God not to let him meet any masters.

By the time everything was ready, it was already the end of the month. Xiao Wanlong divided the rebel army into two parts according to the established jihua. The first team was personally commanded by him, and he would lead them by water. The other part of the people is the team that rescued Xiao Xiao, they are all in charge of Lakshen, these people are not many in number, and they are all dressed as ordinary people. They will go from the road, bypassing the Inspector of the Republic to reach Seris. Because the rescue team had to travel a long way, they set off a few days first, while the rest of the team also set out after a short rest.

The fleet sailed calmly on the sea for seven or eight days and soon crossed the northern border. Xiao Wanlong was not idle these days, he used all the time he could to train his soldiers during the day, and at night he locked himself in the captain's room to continue to study the information about naval battles.

At noon on this day, Xiao Wanlong took several generals to the side of the ship to inspect the exercise of the ship, and several people were arguing about the issue of the route, when suddenly the soldier in charge of the main mast lookout shouted: "There is a ship in front, and the direction is due north." It's for us! ”

"The ship of the republic?" Xiao Wanlong asked loudly.

"Looks like it should be. But there's only one, and it's fast! The lookout replied.

"Damn, I didn't expect these bastards to come so quickly! Give me the binoculars! Xiao Wanlong muttered viciously.

Soon his subordinates handed the binoculars to Xiao Wanlong: "Strange, why is there no one on the boat over there?" ”

"Is it because their ship is more advanced than ours and the crew doesn't have to stay on deck?" Said one of the generals next to him.

"No way, I read about the republic, they shouldn't have a ship like that." Xiao Wanlong quickly dismissed the general's speculation.

As soon as the generals heard this, they immediately began to mumble in a low voice: "No, since there is no such ship, there will be no one on the deck of Weishenme?" Could it be a ghost ship? ”

After everyone said this, a strange atmosphere immediately began to spread. Everyone stopped talking, and they all looked at Xiao Wanlong directly.

"Hmph, we haven't seen any kind of jiashi. Lao Tzu worships God but does not worship ghosts, and naturally he does not believe in ghosts. Even if it's a ghost, we can beat him up! Xiao Wanlong said firmly.

The generals heard Xiao Wanlong say this, and they had the bottom in their hearts, since the marshals are not afraid of ghosts, then we don't have to be afraid. The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. It's good to see the moves.

Xiao Wanlong waved his hand: "Listen to my order, all the personnel gather on the deck, prepare weapons and ropes, and the flag soldiers will immediately wave flags to the other ships, signaling them not to act rashly!" I'd like to see if there are any ghosts on the boat on the other side. ”

"Command!" The generals responded in unison.

Now everyone is busy. It didn't take long for the more than 100 ships of the righteous army to be ready, just waiting for Xiao Wanlong's order to attack.

Meanwhile. The ship on the opposite side gradually slowed down. Zuihou stopped less than five hundred meters from the original Ren Zhai Rebel Fleet.

In this way, the two groups of people began a half-hour confrontation, but no one did anything when they arrived at Zuihou. The sea is still calm, and a few seagulls fly by from time to time, which is really hard to think of as a scene before the great war.

Finally, Xiao Wanlong couldn't bear it anymore: "Damn, what kind of fame!?" If you want to fight or not, is this a way to make a fool of us? I don't have time for you, board! ”

"Great. This may be a trap, so let's not be fooled! ”

"Yes, Dashuai, they may be waiting for us to throw themselves into the net!" Several generals persuaded together.

Xiao Wanlong's eyes rolled and said, "There are a lot of us." He can't make a name for himself with just one ship! If we don't board the ship at this time, I'm afraid it will break morale, so as long as we bring more people and horses, we should be fine. ”

"Dashuai, you are our supreme commander here, so you must not board the ship, if you have to go to the ship to find out, then I am willing to do it for you!"

It was Miao Xiaoshu, the only female general in the original village, who said this. Miao Xiaoshu was originally the wife of the nobility in the original clan, she was brilliant since she was a child, her martial arts were extraordinary, and she was familiar with the art of war and knew some strategies, and her husband not only had a very high status in the clan, but also could be regarded as single-minded to her, not only that, but she also gave birth to a pair of lovely children. Supposedly, a woman like her should be very happy. Unfortunately, her husband died in the massacre 20 years ago, and a pair of children under her knees also disappeared in the war. Since then, she has followed Xiao Wanlong to the Misty Mountain, and she has always wanted to avenge her deceased husband and children. Miao Xiaoshu is a very delicate person and a very measured person, so she was deeply valued by Xiao Wanlong, and let her be the village chief of Bailu Village. Now that the original village has raised the banner of righteousness to attack the republic, she has become a fierce female general under the instruction of Xiao Wanlong, which can be said to be a very powerful role.

Xiao Wanlong is very relieved of Miao Xiaoshu's ability, since she took the initiative to ask Ying to board the ship for herself, then she should be given a chance to perform, thinking of this Xiao Wanlong nodded: "Okay, then send you there, but you have to be cautious." ”

"Please rest assured, Xiaoshu, I will go back when I go." Miao Xiaoshu replied cleanly.

Xiao Wanlong nodded again, so he sent an order to the flag soldiers and asked him to tell the ships to stay still for the time being and strengthen their vigilance, and then allocated a vanguard of fifty people to Miao Xiaoshu for her to board the ship to check.

In this way, Miao Xiaoshu took these fifty people to board the so-called "ghost ship" very easily, and the first thing she did after getting on the boat was to look around for a while. The ship was indeed very old, a civilian ship of the Republic of the last century, and its deck was full of discarded bottles and cans and some useless old newspapers. The deck is surrounded by guardrails, most of which have long since rusted and deformed and are no longer usable. Other than that, on the surface, the ship really didn't have a single person.

Miao Xiaoshu retracted her gaze and said to the people around her: "You take five people to investigate, pay attention to your feet, and be careful in everything!" ”

The subordinate nodded and began to investigate.

After a while, the investigators returned: "Report to the general, this ship is really not a single person. We've searched it all, and I'm afraid there's no other living thing here but rats. ”

"Oh? That's really strange, could it be that this is not a Republic sent to deal with us, but just an old abandoned ship that happened to be bumped into by us here? Miao Xiaoshu began to mutter to herself.

Just as she was at a loss, a beautiful song came from the cabin, which seemed to drift through the air like a ghost.

"Not good! Get your weapons out and get ready for battle! With her intuition, Miao Xiaoshu sensed a hint of danger, and she bent down to take out the three-section stick stuck in her back, while her eyes were firmly fixed on the front.

"It's useless, it's futile for you to be on guard, because your men are dead, and you're half a foot in the coffin." While she was on guard, a voice suddenly floated out of the cabin, and it was certain that the song had been sung by this person. (To be continued......)
