The purpose of the sheep was never to eliminate the Baqiu naval army of Eastern Wu, but to train the troops.

Yang Wei knew that if he really relied on the superiority of his troops to eliminate the Baqiu Naval Army and occupy Baqiu, then he would be greeted by the encirclement of the main force of the Eastern Wu Naval Army.

Even if Baqiu is not occupied, the Soochow naval army will not sit idly by and watch the Baqiu naval army be annihilated, and will inevitably launch a retaliatory counterattack.

At this time, it was impossible for the newly established Jiangling Navy to resist the attack of the Eastern Wu Navy Army, and in the end it could only retreat to public security and rely on the turtle formation to hold the enemy.

If this step is achieved, not to mention whether it can withstand the retaliatory counterattack of the Soochow Naval Army, let's just say that the Gangneung Naval Army, which has just been formed, is bound to pay a heavy price.

One more. Even if Yang Wei wanted to encircle and annihilate the Eastern Wu Naval Army, he couldn't do it.

Yang Wei had just defected from Dongwu to the Han Dynasty not long ago, and he knew very well what the actual combat strength of the Dongwu Navy was.

Although Yang Wei sent Zhong Limu with 5,000 sailors to lure the enemy, Yang Wei also knew that it was a little difficult to rely on Zhong Limu to drag Liu Luo and create enough time for himself to encircle the Jiangdong Army.

In fact, Zhong Limu also thinks so.

When retreating to lure the enemy, the Jiangling Navy lacked experience in water warfare, and its boat handling proficiency was not as good as that of the Dongwu Navy Army, so they chased them closer and closer.

But when the counterattack was about to drag the other party, the Jiangling Navy led by Zhong Limu was easily eliminated by the Liuluo Division, and in a short period of time, they opened up the distance and couldn't catch up at all.

This is not only the gap in the experience of the navy, but also the gap in the command of the commander. Relying on the current Zhong Limu and the 5,000 Jiangling Naval Army, they can't hold back the remaining Eastern Wu Naval Army at all.

And the sheep actually expected this possibility, so. The three Mengchong battleships he brought this time were actually not real Mengchong battleships.

Staying a little far away, I can't really see it, and I can only judge by the difference in size between him and the walker, and the Yangqi brought three Mengchong battleships, and nearly a hundred of them came over.

But in fact, what Yang Yu brought with him were three projection vehicles, which were either battleships or mobile batteries of catapults.

This thing has no melee ability, and its forward speed has been greatly limited, relying on the eighty escorts to actually run a little slower, and the sheep may not have a chance to encircle him.

But Liuliu didn't have clairvoyance, and no matter whether Yang Wei really brought three Mengchong battleships, he relied on these nearly 100 to go away, and Liuliu had to retreat.

As for why Yang Chong only brought a cart Meng Chong, instead of the real Meng Chong warship, Yang Wei naturally had his own plans.

In fact, every time Zhong Limu took the initiative to attack, he didn't go alone, and with him, there were twenty walking boats led by Wen Dai, more than forty fishing boats collected, and a thousand sailors and soldiers.

Every time Zhong Limu took the initiative to provoke in front of the gate of Baqiu Water Village, Wen Dai took this fleet and hid in the reeds near Baqiu Dongwu Water Village, waiting for the opportunity.

Liuliu did not send troops to pursue, and Wendai had to withdraw back to Jiangling with Zhong Limu, but this time Liuliu led the naval army to pursue Zhonglimu's department, and in the water village, there were only a few hundred left-behind troops left.

At this time, Wen Dai finally found an opportunity, with 20 ships as the vanguard, slaughtered into the Baqiu Water Village, drove hundreds of troops left behind, and began to go ashore to plunder the ordnance, grain and grass hoarded in the Water Village.

Take as much as you can and the rest as much as you can. Just leave it at that.

In the process of looting, Yang Wei also told Wen Dai not to fall in love with the war, and to evacuate the water village as soon as possible before Liuluo returned to help, collapse the river, and go ashore from the ferry port of Chuyang County on the north bank of Chang'an.

Yang Wei didn't want to stimulate the Dongwu Navy too much, otherwise, a fire and the ordnance, grain and grass were burned together with the water village, which was the best way to deal with it.

But if you do that, it will be tantamount to ruining the entire Baqiu Water Village in Soochow, and Soochow will definitely not give up.

Therefore, when Liuluo led the troops to quickly withdraw to the water village, he found that his water village was still in good condition, but the grain, grass and ordnance in the water village were robbed a lot. For those who are a little angry, they are helpless.

The plundering enemy army has run away in advance, and at this time, outside the Baqiu Water Village, the naval army led by Yang Wei is also about to attack, how can Liuluo have the heart to count how much ordnance, money and food he has lost, and the most important thing now is to close the gate of the village and defend it according to the water village.

At the same time, Liuluo hurriedly sent someone to send a letter to General Zhu Ran in Lukou by land, asking him to quickly lead the naval army to help. If you come quickly, you should be able to block this Jiangling naval army and break it in one fell swoop.

But, obviously, Yang Wei was not afraid of this at all, everything was still in his plan.

With 15,000 sailors, more than 130 warships, and two Mengchong warships surrounding Baqiu Water Village, it is definitely impossible for Liuliu to take the initiative to lead the fleet into battle. If you go out to war again, you don't know how you will die.

The rest of what can be done is to rely on the defense system of the water village. In this case, what else is the sheep afraid of?

Directly ordered the naval fleet under his command to start practicing the various formation changes of the naval army, as well as long-range attack methods such as bows and crossbows, darts, etc., this is the best opportunity for actual combat drills.

It's a pity that the village is not closed, and Yang Wei is also worried that the casualties of the sailors under his command will be too large, otherwise, Gao Gao also wants to practice how to attack the water village and the ability to fight hand-to-hand in water combat.

Well, I can only wait for the next time I have such an opportunity, now, hurry up and practice.

As for Liuluo, now in addition to shrinking in the water village and being beaten passively, the only means of counterattack is to rely on the arrow tower at the entrance of the water village, so that the soldiers can shoot arrows and shoot back even the bed crossbow near the water village, he can't use it.

Without him, these bed crossbows arranged near the water village were smashed by the three projectors brought by Yang Wei almost immediately, relying on the advantage of range.

Without him, these bed crossbows arranged near the water village were smashed by the three projectors brought by Yang Wei almost immediately, relying on the advantage of range.

Even, Liuluo is a little strange, in the face of such a good opportunity, the Dongwu warships are all shrunk in the water village, the place is small, unable to move, why the commander of the Jiangling Navy Army, did not order to throw stones with a cart Meng Chong, smashing the warships in these water villages.

If the range is not enough, it can still be done by smashing some warships, why not do it?!

That's a question. To put it bluntly, Yang Wei didn't want to stimulate the Soochow Navy too much, triggering an all-round retaliation counterattack by the Soochow Navy Army.

The main purpose of this dispatch of troops is to accumulate the experience of water warfare of the Jiangling Naval Army, plunder some grain and grass to supplement the military supplies, and your Eastern Wu Army will not retaliate on a large-scale counterattack because of the loss of these grains, grass and ordnance.

If this is the case, it is really possible to trigger a big war between the two countries in Jingnan.

Yang Wei couldn't be sure whether Jingzhou was ready to go to war with Soochow again, and he didn't want his training to become the fuse for the war between the two armies. So it's more or less a spare.

But Liuluo didn't know that he could only shrink in the water village now, passively beaten, and then watch the sky get darker and darker.

According to reason, at this time, the Gangneung naval army should retreat, after all, in this era, there is no concept of night battle in water warfare.

Water warfare is a battle that requires sufficient understanding of hydrological conditions, and the hydrological conditions of this era, even the most familiar naval soldiers, must rely on eye observation, fighting at night, and do not have the combat conditions.

Therefore, water battles are generally close to the evening when the two sides have to collect their troops, each returning to the village, and if you sail at night, the risk is too great.

However, the sheep did not withdraw.

Night is not suitable for water warfare, of course Yang Shu knows, but the problem is, isn't he training, what kind of combat is it?

Stop the warship at the gate of Baqiu Water Village, and then the soldiers keep shooting arrows back and forth, practicing the ability to fight with bows and crossbows on the warship, and there is no need to divide day and night.

If it affects the movement of the soldiers on the boat, for fear that one of them will accidentally fall into the water, then light the torch.

With this kind of training opportunity in an almost actual combat atmosphere, do you still want to wait for the next time?!

There is simply no such opportunity anymore, okay!!

In this way, the water war version of the night battle took place in Baqiu.

Stay that angry, helpless. All have the heart to open the gate directly, and the enemy will die together.

The old man really can't stand this anger, how can he be so bullying.

Fortunately, I didn't see the true purpose of the sheep before, thinking that the enemy army just lacked the correct tactical theory of attacking the water village, and didn't know what to do, so I could only shoot arrows to suppress it.

But when the sunset was approaching, the enemy army actually fought at night and had to shoot arrows into the water village to suppress it. Fools know that the bastard coach on the other side is training his troops!!

Good guys, you're using our opponents as targets, aren't you?!

No matter how much he stayed, he didn't want to be angry, so he ordered at that time that the navy would get on the boat and go out of the village to meet the enemy.

As a result, before Liuluo finished concentrating the fleet in the water village, he saw the sheep in the water village, and directly ordered three throwing cars to start firing a salvo, and instantly set fire and smashed the five Eastern Wu army closest to the gate of the village.

At this time, if Liuluo calmed down and went out, it would be a death, either he was stoned to death, or the boat was destroyed and drowned in the river, and he just chose a way to die, and it was impossible to cause any substantial damage to the enemy.

In that case, forget it, let's be aggrieved.

Liuliu may be able to rather die than be humiliated, but Liuliu found that since the Shu thieves smashed the five walkers, the soldiers under his command have been much slower to assemble. Not everyone has such a temperament.

Even the deputy general of Liuluo came over to persuade the Shu thieves to think that they had too many arrows, and they wanted to shoot more, so let them shoot, and it was a big deal to prepare more shields and grass dams for the guards of the village, and they would survive tonight.

Wait until tomorrow, General Zhu of Lukou will get the news to help, these Shu thieves can't run away.

Let's let the enemy army be proud for a while, and it's hard to say whether the future will be won or lost.

The adjutant general's words made Liuliu have to let out a long sigh and order to do so.

If the soldiers have no will to fight, they will have no will to fight, they will die when they go out of the village, and they can live if they defend the village. What are you going to do if you let Liuliu?!

Moreover, Liuluo didn't think that this group of Shu thieves would stay until General Zhu Ran led the troops to block it. The general of the Shu thief's naval army completely grasped the initiative in the water war from the very beginning of the battle, how could this kind of person not be wary of the direction of Lukou?!

And that's exactly what happened.

The next morning, before dawn, Yang Wei began to give an order, pull out the anchor and set sail, and withdraw to the Jiangling Water Village near the public security.

By the way, before leaving, Yang Yu ordered three carts to attack with fire, and directly smashed the gate of Dongwu Baqiu Water Village.

This is actually to tell Liuluo, it's not that Lao Tzu can't beat you, but he doesn't want to beat you, if you dare to chase you, then don't think that there is still a chance to go back.
