Chapter 198: Ants gnaw on elephants

Sail all the way north.

The flag was hung with willow characters, and the pennant fluttered.

After leaving Xiongzhou, the water flow is becoming more and more rapid, and the boat is slower, the biggest problem of this kind of big ship is the power, it is okay to go downstream, if you go upstream, it will take a lot of effort.

Therefore, some things are not only expensive in things, but also in manpower.

The real guests of a ship are twenty or thirty people, and it often takes more than 100 sailors and oarsmen to move.

This is also the biggest difference between a passenger ship and a military ship.

All morning everyone stood on the boat and stood still, dressed in armor and on guard.

Qingzhou is upstream, Xiongzhou is downstream, and the ships should often be less upstream and more downstream, but now, the ships down Qingzhou are gradually increasing, although they are all small boats, but they are extremely fast. Some of the boats began to turn around after crossing head-on, often following behind the boats, hiding and hiding, like sinister imps lurking.

Liu Tingyu, who closed his eyes and recuperated, sat on the newly built couch in the center of the big ship.

This soft collapse was made by craftsmen in Xiongzhou, which may have been a temporary idea, Liu Tingyu said that the ship was powerful and domineering but the charm was not satisfied, and it lacked a bit of atmosphere.

What atmosphere?

Remember the URL

The craftsman was very strange at the time, and then Liu Tingyu gave him a general explanation of the comparison, and when the craftsman heard the music, wasn't he just forced to qualify? smiled and agreed, and promised that it would be completed in two days at most, and he could do better than Liu Tingyu thought. This is commendable, and the craftsmen of the Great Construction are really crushing Shikoku in terms of skills.

Later, Liu Tingyu wanted to take a look first, but the craftsman was surprised, but he didn't expect His Royal Highness King Qin to understand engineering drawings, so he responded, but it took another day, so naturally he didn't have to care about this.

After reading the drawings, I was very satisfied, and immediately started work, which caused the current appearance, there is a wine table in front of the soft collapse, there is a tea table next to it, and there is a carpet cover on the ground, and the back axle was originally an open-air bed, the craftsman deliberately added a top, and a long pole was removed from behind the soft collapse, and a canopy was made, which can shelter from the wind and rain, and add some wealth!

I have to admire these skilled craftsmen.

It was about noon, when suddenly a warbler cries from the boat on the river, and the captain of the guard quickly looked to the place where the sound came from.

It was a fishing boat, and there were several domesticated waterfowl on board.

The captain observed, his eyes hesitated.

Just when he wondered if the warbler's cry was not like a waterfowl, a sharp sword beside him had already flown out, and in an instant the fisherman who was driving the boat had his throat cut to death.

The captain looked over, it was Liu Tingyu's sword.

"Burn. ”

The guards did not hesitate when they heard this, and immediately the two black-clothed guards picked up the longbows in their hands, put on the strings of arrows, lit the fire letter, and aimed at the fishing boat. Two arrows hit one, and two people jumped out of the cabin and disappeared directly into the water.

No one is surprised by this, not only now, but in the past seven or eight years, they have encountered this kind of thing hundreds of times!

The captain laughed: "Young marshal, it seems that that girl doesn't plan to follow you back!"

"Hahahaha!"

The soldiers laughed in unison.

Liu Tingyu also smiled slightly: "It's so easy, do you still need to come to Qingzhou? Don't let her climb in front of Ben Shuai to serve?"

"Hahaha, I've got to let her crawl over this time!"

Huhβ€”β€”

With a movement of his fingers, the long sword flew out again, and both swords went towards the stern, and everyone didn't see anything, and the long sword had already returned. As for the result, it was a string of red blood tumbling from behind the butt of the boat.

The surrounding boats began to be impatient, and those that followed, intersected on the sides, and on-the-way began to converge rapidly in the direction of the boat.

"How to play?"

"I can't get enough of it last time!"

Liu Tingyu stood up before the soft collapse, holding the lonely crutches in his hand, and then the two swords flew into the river in an arc!

These rushing boats are speeding forward, and suddenly!

With the ship as the center, a large layer of ice quickly condensed, and quickly spread outward, covering the surrounding area within ten zhang of ice and snow in just a moment!

The Qingzhou assassins on those small boats are probably scolding their mothers, what kind of assassination mission is this? It's just a pervert!

They were still shocked by Liu Tingyu's terrifying strength, and the black-armored killing god holding the halberd on the opposite side had already come!

Compared to those water bandits on the Qiu River, these Qingzhou assassins were much more well-trained, and they would not panic immediately, and when they saw someone killing, they would draw their swords and fight, and quickly kill with these black-armored warriors. Even when they are at a disadvantage, no one flinchs or runs away.

......

On the building ship moored in the distance, Wang Ge, the prince of Qingzhou, was watching the battle, hugging the beauty in his arms and smiling proudly, and then asked the general: "The heavy crossbow on his ship can't hit this?"

"Sure, this news is from an internal source, and the subordinates have calculated it, and there is no problem. ”

Zhao Decheng frowned, a little disbelieving.

Wang Ge looked at him and asked a little proudly, "What does Mr. Zhao think?"

If Zhao Decheng had said a few more words before, he would have counted Liu Tingyu's power, but now, he didn't bother to speak, so he just responded: "I have to take a look again." ”

"Just look at it, baby, don't look at it. ”

The beauty next to her licked her lips and got into Wang Ge's loose and soft cloak.

Zhao Decheng secretly scolded in his heart, and the dog's day would only use his lower body to think about problems. It's okay to think about retreating early, and it will save the time when the time comes, and the ship will not be able to get it.

Zhao Decheng turned his head to look at the guards guarding the lifeboat over there.

The guard nodded to him.

......

The battle on the river went from fierce to sporadic, and then to the end, and finally the Qingzhou assassins on these small boats were all wiped out by Xiyong's black armor, and none of these black armor soldiers were killed or injured!

The Qingzhou Assassin General, who was observing the battle situation outside the battle, muttered to himself in a cold sweat on his forehead: "Is this the strength of the Black Armor Army?"

Originally, it was expected that these people would be able to consume a wave of Liu Tingyu's manpower, so that the next wave of attacks would have a greater effect, and it would be best to be able to directly destroy the final machine!

But he was too optimistic, and from the very beginning, he should have understood that he was not dealing with ordinary people, and he could not be judged by ordinary people's thinking.

"My lord, what should I do?

The adults frowned, deducing in their minds what would happen to the next attack, the boat could not get too close, and the frozen water, those water ghosts could not get out of the ice, even if they got on, it was in vain, what was needed at this time was calm, what was needed was opportunity, and they could calm down.

"Your Excellency!?"

Don't worry, take a look at the situation first, tell the water ghosts to prepare first, and look at the eagle signal!

"Yes!"

This time to deal with Liu Tingyu's boat, they Qingzhou chose a relatively simple and effective method, that is, ants gnaw elephants, take advantage of the characteristics of Qingzhou clippers, gather hundreds of fast boats, and constantly consume the power of Liu Tingyu on the river, and use this method of ants to gnaw elephants to slowly consume him to death.

Among them, the best, the fastest, and the effect they want to achieve the most is to consume Liu Tingyu's living power, destroy the final machine, and wait for the destruction, the building ship of the prince of Qingzhou Wang Ge will approach, and use the new weapon Qianji crossbow to strangle Liu Tingyu under this powerful war machine.

It's a perfectly well-thought-out plan.

It's just that this first wave of the offensive suffered a setback, and the division was not good.

The commander looked at His Royal Highness the Prince who was dominating the building ship in the distance, this was actually what he was most worried about. After all, His Royal Highness is not a person who can fight, and if he commands blindly when he is in battle, it is the most dangerous. The last time Chen Bing came out was an example, indiscriminately modifying the building ship, and commanding the fleet at will, using inappropriate methods at inappropriate times, which directly led to the defeat of the Qingzhou Navy Army, so that now the Navy has an inexplicable fear of the final machine!

You must know that there are dozens of ships in Qingzhou, and he can fight a few ships in the end, if he goes out, Liu Tingyu will also be scared back, how dare he dare to come up so arrogantly? But what about His Royal Highness the Prince of the World? He is as timid as a mouse, but he is not convinced, and he listens to the slander of the villain, so he has to organize a fleet of 100 clippers to engage in this method of ants gnawing elephants, although there is nothing wrong with it, but this move is undoubtedly to injure the enemy by 1,000 and damage 800, and it is definitely not the best strategy in the strategy, not even the middle strategy!

Originally, he had a lot of complaints about Zhao Decheng, because Zhao Decheng exaggerated the power of the Qianji crossbow, which made Wang Ge full of confidence, but Zhao Decheng didn't know that Wang Ge was going to come directly to Liu Tingyu to try his arrows, and he still wanted to stop it after hearing it, even if it was this morning, Zhao Decheng still mentioned it slightly, but the wood was already in the boat, and he was about to encounter Liu Tingyu, and he had to send it on the string.

There's no way to change it.

......

The ice floes on the opposite side had dispersed, and several of the approaching clippers had become ghost ships with no people, carrying a boatload of corpses down the river.

The Commander frowned and began to raise the flag,

The second wave –

The third wave –

Let's go togetherβ€”

No one here will doubt the commander's command ability, and even many people think that the fourth and fifth waves should be brought up together, and the sixth to twelfth waves should be prepared immediately, without thinking about any backup plans, and the matter will be over!

Siege is the truth!

"Cover the water ghosts at all costs!" commanded the Commander Majesty.

A new wave of siege of small boats had begun, and in order to prevent them from being frozen directly like the first wave, as if they were grabbed and beaten by him, they chose a more ingenious method, keeping a distance between the boats, and at the same time opening the distance between the front and rear, the archers of the rear ships covered, the front ships charged quickly, and some of the ships were still hung with water ghosts, ready to enter the water at any time.

This wave can be regarded as a linkage up and down, the boat on the river is covered, and there are water ghosts diving close to the boat under the water.

These water ghosts did not take the chisel, but traveled lightly, and the chisel force was on the sixth wave, which was a backup plan.

Like this kind of military giant modified vehicle ship in the Zhao Tianbao period, it was designed with the prevention of water ghosts in mind, so there are two layers of skin wrapped at the bottom of the ship, and there are barbs similar to wolf teeth spikes all over the bottom of the ship, and it is easy to be hung on the bottom of the boat and become a real water ghost if you are not careful!

Therefore, in terms of layout, the commander used a more prudent and cautious tactical approach.

Looking at the second wave that is about to begin, the tactics of the strain have been enhanced by an order of magnitude.

The commander touched his beard, his eyes were sharp, and he muttered to himself, "How do you break this wave?"
