"The third prince has always done things in a measured manner, and maybe he only has something important to do when he returns to Lingzhou, not necessarily to attack Guawa."

"And even if he goes, the old minister believes that he will return victorious."

"I don't care about him, I don't care what he is doing when he goes back to Lingzhou, it's the matter of the eldest princess, do you have any countermeasures?"

The prime minister suddenly frowned.

"This eldest princess threatened each other with a contract, and the name and handprints were all made by the emperor himself, and they are justified, so it's hard to refute."

"Then you mean to cede twenty cities to her?" Li Zheng was furious.

"The emperor forgives the sin, Weichen doesn't mean that. Why don't you wait for the third prince to come back and let him come up with an idea? ”

Li Zhen's face was extremely dark, he snorted coldly, and stopped talking.

Ten days later.

"How far is it from Guawaa?" Li Xingchen asked.

"There are still twenty miles to go, and it will take about an hour to get to the shore." Yuan Wanshan paused, and then added: "City Lord, don't you discuss the battle plan?" ”

At this moment, the surrounding Lingzhou troops began to point in unison to the sentry tower in front of them.

"City Lord, look."

Li Xingchen looked along his fingers, and saw a dense number of small black dots on the water in front of him, about five miles away from them.

"It's the Guava Army." Yuan Wanshan said in a deep voice.

The next moment.

A banging sound sounded, and the Lingzhou troops in the ten ships rushed out of the cabin one after another.

Although they are both water-savvy, they don't know anything about water warfare.

Water permeability can only play an auxiliary role in water warfare.

"City Lord, the last general is willing to lead the army to fight with the enemy's naval army." Yuan Wanshan was eager to try.

Li Xingchen thought for a moment and nodded, "Fight quickly." ”

"Yes, City Lord."

Yuan Wanshan put down a small boat from the middle boat and shouted, "What are you doing in a daze? A hundred water troops, speed. ”

Ten people from each middle boat disembarked, lowered a small boat, and swam forward.

These 100 people are proficient in water, which is different from other Lingzhou troops who can only swim.

They have undergone professional training, such as breath-holding, snorkeling, etc., and are proficient in water, and their experience in live water warfare is the first, but they have undergone short-term training in water warfare.

Li Xingchen walked to the bow of the boat.

Gaze at ten small boats.

Guava Naval Army?

I want to see how good these Guawa water army can be.

When the Guava Navy heard the news, they came to intercept the invasion of the Lingzhou Army, there were thousands of people, and they usually patrolled the sea area, and the sentry post reported that someone had been invaded, so they quickly assembled to meet the Lingzhou Army.

Although the boat is small, the bow and arrow stone cannon are connected to the hull as a whole, which was specially designed by Li Xingchen.

The hull is sturdy, and the weapons are much more abundant than those of the other side.

In addition to bows and arrows and stone cannons, the most awesome point is that it can directly sink a ship of the same size with the bow of the ship, and there is also a water war weapon such as fire oil.

Ten small boats were arranged in a diamond shape, getting closer and closer to the Guava army.

"Throw boulders!" Yuan Wanshan roared wildly.

Ten ships fired the slings in unison, while speeding up.

Taking advantage of the flexibility and small size of the boat, it quickly approached the Guawa boat.

In the shouts of the Lingzhou army, the slap rod that was several feet long slapped towards the Guawa boat.

Bang.

There was a loud bang.

The Guawa warship was hit by two slapsticks, and the hull shook violently, and the water splashed high.

The Guawa Army had never seen this type of attack.

Immediately there was a burst of rage.

How dare a mere boat be so provocative?

Immediately, bows and arrows began to be fired at the Lingzhou Army.

However, the ships of the Guawa army were several times larger than the boats, and when the boats approached them, the arrows were of little use.

The Lingzhou army kept attacking the Guawa ships with a slapstick, and the ten small boats worked together, and the five warships of the other side were capsized one after another, and even the hull was split from the middle.

The water was littered with broken wood and guava soldiers fluttering and struggling.

However, in addition to arrows, they were greeted by boulders.

The water war between the two sides quickly entered a white-hot state.

On the river, the war drums are like thunder, cries for help, wails, shouts of killing, rendering a river and sea, like a hell on earth.

Guava's ship was constantly battered and shattered.

"Put the rocket! Burn them! ”

I don't know who in the Guava army shouted such a sentence.

Yuan Wanshan sneered.

Put a rocket on the top of a fart.

When the sailors are fighting, the sails are generally lowered to prevent them from being hit by enemy rockets, igniting the sailboat and causing the hull to burn.

However, firstly it is not said that the boat is not made of wood, and secondly it has no sails.

In actual combat, if you want to attack with fire, only fire oil is the most useful.

"Retreat, retreat!"

One of the Guava Army shouted.

They had learned their lesson, so they did not dare to let the boat come near again, and they had to keep their distance, otherwise the total annihilation was inevitable.

A few boats in front fended off the attack of small boats, and the Guava sailors in the rear withdrew the ships back and began to fire stone cannons.

Bang!

Rumble!

The deafening sound and the gradual splash of water made the Lingzhou army soaked.

At this time, three Guava boats surrounded one of the small boats and began to ram violently.

No matter how hard the boat was, it could not withstand the fierce squeeze of the three large ships, and soon there was a continuous cracking sound, and a large hole was pierced by the enemy, and the river surged into the hole.

"Take the stern of the boat and get the brothers out." Yuan Wanshan yelled.

The nine boats quickly formed a circle, and while attacking fiercely, they headed towards the small boat that was flanked.

Under the rapid fire, the three Guava ships surrounding the small boat were driven away and retreated.

The ten Lingzhou troops on the ship were scattered to other small boats.

At this time, the Guava army had roughly understood the tactics of the Lingzhou army, and began to break through separately, trying to surprise from the gap in the boat, scatter it, and break it one by one.

"Powder keg, powder keg." Yuan Wanshan ordered.

Fire attack is a very traditional method of warfare in water warfare, and the use of fire oil will make the battle of the water army more powerful.

Each small boat was equipped with a trebuchet, and the Lingzhou army quickly put the oil porcelain jar on it and threw it into the Guawa military ship.

With a snap, the porcelain jar shattered and the oil leaked out.

Rockets on board! Coaxed, ignited the oil and burned very quickly.

In a matter of moments, the surrounding Guava warships were on fire.

This water battle of 100 people against 1,000 people took only one hour to come to an end.

Two-thirds of Guava was wiped out, and the rest fled in all directions, not daring to fight again.

Although there was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, the Guava navy was arrogant and arrogant, and defeat was an inevitable result.

At this time, the alarm has reached the city of Quawa.

The three-pillar beacon smoke means that the strong army is attacked, either the patrol fleet is attacked, or another country has hit the river bank.

The defenders of the capital did not know which country had attacked, but this did not affect the panic in the city.

The soldiers of the city rushed to the head of the city to check the situation and respond to the battle at any time.

There was a soldier galloping to the king's palace and told the king of Gawa.

King Guawa is fifty years old and has been on the throne for more than twenty years.
