In the Bohai Sea Division's camp, Mu Yugen looked at the setting sunset and frowned inadvertently, and asked, "Cao Biao has no news yet?" ”

One of his subordinates replied, "I haven't sent anyone back since the news came back an hour ago, but my subordinates think that no news is good news." ”

Mu Yugen understood what he meant, and when he was about to fight, he would only keep communicating with the rear when he encountered danger, and if there was no news coming back, it would mean that something was going well.

There was also the possibility of total annihilation, but he didn't think that would happen.

The Tang State only has a dozen merchant ships and a few hundred people, and there are nearly 100 large and small warships on his side, and there are more than 5,000 tigers and wolves, and the commander of the army is still his general Cao Biao, and it is impossible to fail.

The only possibility is that they are chasing each other.

Although he had never fought in naval warfare, after he was in charge of training sailors, he looked through various materials and asked many people who had experience in this field.

I know that the most annoying thing about naval battles is the chase battle, the boundless sea, it is too difficult for one side to run and catch up, and sometimes the chase battle will be carried out for several days.

So he wasn't very worried, but faintly hoped that the merchant ships of the Tang Kingdom would run well, and it would be best to escape all the way back to the place where the Tang Kingdom was located with the sailors of the Yan Kingdom.

Originally, he planned to intercept the merchant ships of the Tang Kingdom on the way, and the goods such as porcelain, colored glass, grain, and salt were all what they wanted from the Yan Kingdom.

It's just that he couldn't figure out the specific route and time of the Tang caravan, and he was afraid of startling the snake, so he finally changed it to intercept the other party when he returned.

He knew that the Tang Kingdom and the Baekje Kingdom were exchanging goods on Tamna Island, and as long as he monitored this island, he could find the Tang Kingdom caravan, and it would be easier to catch each other.

In fact, it was indeed as he thought, everything went very smoothly in the early stage, the only thing he didn't expect was that Jin Rushan was so decisive, and when he found the danger, he didn't hesitate to throw the goods, reduce the weight and speed up the escape.

Otherwise, it would have won a big victory.

When the sun set and night fell, the entire sailor battalion quickly fell silent, and only a few people were still active.

Mu Yugen is accustomed to this, and most ordinary people have night blindness. Although most people's night blindness is not very serious, it also severely affects their activities at night, so they rest as soon as it gets dark.

Most of the people who did not have night blindness were his subordinates, who began to patrol at night.

It was dark and meant that Cao Biao couldn't come back for a while, so he didn't wait any longer, he went back to his residence to eat something and read a book for a while before lying down to rest.

I don't know how long he slept, but he was suddenly awakened by a loud noise.

The habit he had developed over decades of conquest made him sober up in an instant and get up from bed with a bone. In the dark, I grabbed my clothes and put them on, and the movements were as smooth as if it were broad daylight.

As soon as I put on my clothes, my subordinates reported: "General, there is an enemy attack." ”

Enemy attack?

Mu Yugen suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and said, "Do you know who the enemy is?" ”

The subordinate replied: "The incident happened suddenly, it was too dark, the enemy attacked from the sea, and I don't know who it was for the time being." ”

Mu Yugen said: "Let's go, go out and have a look." ”

When he came outside, he raised his eyes to look at the sea, and found that he couldn't see anything, but could only see patches of fire rain flying out of the opposite boat and landing on the dock and houses, causing a fire.

And the opposite side should have used something like fierce fire oil, and the fire started quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the whole camp was turned into a sea of fire.

The craftsmen who served the sailors, the recruited men and other logistics personnel fled in panic.

Because they couldn't find the enemy, the 1,000 soldiers guarding the camp were like headless flies, and they didn't know what to do.

When Mu Yugen was about to say something, the sound of "whoosh" sounded, and short spears fell like rain, followed by screams.

A short spear landed a meter below his feet and stabbed deep into the ground, splashing sand and smacking his face.

He looked at the short spear in front of him in a daze, and the same thought as Cao Biao rose in his mind.

How did the enemy on the other side shoot this thing like an arrow?

His personal guards hurriedly protected him: "General, stay in Qingshan and don't be afraid of no firewood, quickly withdraw." ”

After all, Mu Yugen had gone through strong winds and waves, and he quickly came to his senses, and knew that he could not do anything, so he decisively ordered: "Pass the order, scatter and retreat." ”

Who would dare to give an order at this time, the guards shouted to retreat, and escorted him to retreat into the distance.

On the way, dozens of remnants gathered, and everyone sent Mu Yugen to run backwards together.

However, not long after running out, I heard a 'boom' sound.

Mu Yugen's face changed suddenly, he was too familiar with this kind of sound, it was the movement of the cavalry running.

The enemy sent troops to take the back road.

After there is a fire, there is an enemy army before the fire, is it possible that the sky will die?

No, I have experienced a hundred battles in my life, how can I die here inexplicably.

He changed clothes with one of the guards, grabbed a handful of plaster and smeared it on his face, and then retreated together, but halfway he quietly touched away with two guards.

Sure enough, after a while, the group was stopped by a group of cavalry.

There were only fifty cavalrymen, but the morale-free rout was no match at all, and they were slashed like chickens and ducks.

One of the enemy soldiers also shouted: "There is a big fish here, there is a big fish." ”

"There are really big fish, looking at the clothes, isn't it an old thief?"

"Sure enough, I still have meat to eat with Head Liu."

"Haha...... Commander Yue burned Cao Biao to death, and our Commander Liu slaughtered Mu Yugen and killed the two main generals of Yan State in a battle, I see who dares to underestimate my Tang Kingdom. ”

In the distance, the boss with his mouth open seemed to be unable to believe his ears.

It was the army of the Tang State that attacked himself? Cao Biao's entire army was wiped out? How is this possible?

Isn't it that we are calculating the Tang Kingdom? How does it seem like we have been calculated?

He was confused.

At this time, a calm voice sounded in the distance: "Is this Mu Yugen still unknown, don't be happy first, hurry up and intercept the deserters." Especially these craftsmen of Yan Kingdom, none of them can be let go. ”

"Yes." The cavalry answered, mounted their horses and galloped to the next battlefield, leaving only a corpse in their wake.

Mu Yugen's guards saw that he was depressed, so they set him up and fled while the night was dark.

This 'head Liu' was none other than Liu Meng, and after killing the person suspected of Mu Yugen, he took fifty cavalry to wander around and drove all the people and craftsmen who were about to flee to the shore.

It didn't take long for a large ship to dock, and thousands of Tang soldiers got off the ship to surround the camp and capture all the defeated soldiers, craftsmen, and people.

Wen Yi's purpose was not to destroy the camp of the Bohai Sea Master of Yan Kingdom, but to take a fancy to the craftsmen here.

He worked hard in Lingnan and the Tang Kingdom for more than two years, and only trained more than 2,000 shipbuilding craftsmen and small workers.

And the Bohai Sea Master Battalion in Yan Kingdom, there are more than 10,000 people and craftsmen who serve them alone, otherwise Mu Yugen would not have been able to build a water master in just over three months.

Pack these people away, and the shipbuilding industry of the Tang State took off directly on the spot.
