"Rush!"

Zishou raised the Tai'a sword, and Chao Lei hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.

"Your Majesty, we are all small boats, not good at frontal combat, and the last general suggests a roundabout outflanking...."

Chao Lei's face was embarrassed, this operation was too much to compare.

He also served as a sailor for a while, and naturally worked hard, although he still couldn't learn to swim, but he still had a lot of knowledge about water warfare.

The ships used by the merchant army were all crude oil tankers and light ships made of cowhide oil and tied to wood, and there were no decent large ships at all.

Holding such a ship and charging head-on, what else can it be if you are not a fool?

If you don't know how to fight, don't point fingers!

The more persuasive he is, the more he has to do it!

A lesson from the past, in the Battle of Wet Beard, Cao Cao secretly sent an oil tanker to attack at night, but was discovered by Sun Quan's army, and then there was a one-sided tragedy, can we still be stronger than Boss Cao?

"A businessman must not be humiliated, Zhang Youren is humiliated, do you still have to dodge and dodge? I want to take the officers and soldiers of the three armies to seek justice for him head-on, and the Vietnamese army is ashamed in their hearts and will not be able to fight!"

"Listen to my orders, rush!"

Chao Lei had nothing to say, even the guilt in his heart came out, he didn't persuade again, His Majesty was enthusiastic for a while, but the starting point was not wrong.

What else can I do? I am not a Wen Taishi, so I can only rush along.

At the beginning, the Vietnamese army did not realize that the merchant army was here to attack them, so they did not take the slightest precautions.

A single shot was inflicted, and the worst of the rafts were torn apart from the arrows that had been hung on the boats, and the oarsmen were knocked down by the oncoming arrows.

Fortunately, the hull was not damaged, but it was temporarily unmanned, and under the impetus of the current, the boat retreated downstream downstream, crossing the road, and the hull blocked the way of the follow-up boats.

King Yue: "...."

That's a bit of a bad luck.

Zishou was also stunned, and the start was unfavorable!

Fortunately, the problem is not big, water warfare is not comparable to land warfare, it is very simple to lose, water warfare is the heaviest equipment, and although the role of elite soldiers and strong generals is great, it is far less great than in land warfare.

In land warfare, a small number of generals may really be able to turn the tide of the war, once the enemy forces collapse into an avalanche, no matter how many people there are, it is useless; but water warfare is completely different, the ships are not as good as others, no matter how brave they are, they cannot win; and the ships are numerous and strong, the poor sailors can easily defeat the veterans of a hundred battles who regard death as home, only the ships are about the same level, and the number is basically the same, only the morale needs to be considered.

It is still an example of Cao Wei's attack on Wu, ten years after the defeat of Cao Cao's oil tanker against Wu, Cao Pi attacked Wu in three ways, and Cao Ren played the same trick on the other road, Zhu Huan of Dongwu on the opposite side of the East and attacked the west, and the troops were insufficient, but he fought oil tankers with warships, and there was no pressure when there were fewer soldiers, and he won easily.

Thinking about it this way, there are many elite soldiers and strong generals in the big merchants, but there are few ships, and water battles are really the most suitable for defeating battles.

Moreover, Zishou went out in the name of humiliating the envoys, although attacking the Vietnamese army would be criticized, and even make the princes more detached, but at least Uncle Wen and the courtiers were not good at saying anything.

Not only will he not be whipped, but he may continue to leave the DPRK next time.

The Vietnamese army who reacted roared loudly, and the merchant army, who was regarded as a friendly army, stabbed him in the back?

One after another, they shot out and threw the soldiers of the merchant army who were fighting on the side of the two boats with wooden planks into the water.

However, the Shang army was brave, holding spears to resist, and instantly stabbed several Vietnamese troops.

But this is someone's ship, the follow-up Vietnamese army is continuous, constantly moving forward, but the oil tankers on the merchant side are not as stable as the big ships, no matter how brave they are, it is useless, even Fang Xiang and Fang Bi are a little untenable, so they can only retreat back.

It's also a joke, the merchant army is not good at water, and because the oil tanker swayed too hard, some waves splashed, so they stood unsteadily, fell into the water one by one, and few people were really killed in battle.

Yue Min discovered the advantage of the ship, and directly let people ride the big ship into the small broken oil tanker of the merchant army, only one face, several oil tankers half tilted, almost submerged in the water, can no longer be saved.

Even if they tried their best to stabilize the hull, they could not cope with the turbulent current, and could only be pushed and tilted by the current, and continued to retreat downstream.

Some clever soldiers dodged over, and even took the opportunity to open their bows and arrows to interfere with the Vietnamese troops on the big ship, but the scale of the arrows was not large, and they could not bring the results of the first wave of surprise.

"Come up for me!"

Fang Xiang stood straight on the boat, his body was like an iron tower, although he was a little unsuitable for water fighting, he did not shrink at all, and pulled up many sergeants by the cover of cowhide.

Chao Lei, who commanded the fleet, jumped out of his throat, if he used the name of friendly forces as a cover and directly boarded the ship to break out, maybe it would be possible, even if he did not want to be with the king of Yue, he would do this dirty plan, and he should also arrange archers on both sides of the strait before attacking.

However, the king of Xuan attacked others with his own shortcomings, and most of them had to lose for a while.

I never thought that the official first battle of the king was a defeat, and the general must not be merciful, and the king of the emperor was already stunned by Zhang Youren's humiliation!

Chao Lei tried his best to mobilize the ships, although he was not optimistic about this battle, but he also tried his best to select some talents from the merchant army who knew the nature of the water, and at least one of them on a boat, so as not to encounter a little wind and waves, and be completely defeated.

More than 100 oil tankers set out side by side, and the momentum was not small.

However, the Vietnamese army relied on the big boat, and was not afraid at all, and after standing still, they opened their bows and arrows, and the arrows shot out with the undulating waves, and there was no accuracy, and most of the feather arrows fell directly into the water, but the momentum was huge.

Zishou saw that it was almost over, the general trend had been decided, and his side was obviously showing a defeat, although the soldiers who died in battle would become heavenly soldiers and generals, but the family background of the big business was like this, and he would fight a few more defeats if he could fight a few more battles, saving a little defeat.

"Our army is defeated, retreat quickly!"

When Zishou saw the herald issuing the flag, he pulled up his armor and used a slight force, and the ox tendons used for connection made a cracking sound under the huge force, and the shoulder and chest guards were all loosened, and they were pulled to the ground.

Immediately put on a plank, came to an oil tanker, took off his slippery shoes, and stood very steadily.

The archers of the Vietnamese army directly turned the direction, and the arrows were all directed at Zi Shou, who was wearing armor before and didn't know, but now he took off his armor, revealing the royal robe that intersected with gold and white, everyone knew that this was the king of the Emperor, and he didn't shoot white, he didn't shoot!

The feather arrows stirred up a little wave in the water, and there were even people who were riding boats and crashing head-on!

The oil tanker under his feet became unstable because of the impact, he strode to the stern, picked up an oar, and with a lot of effort, he did not need to swing by the water's momentum, but operated the oars in the opposite direction of the current, and competed with the current, and with pure brute force, he forcibly broke the horizontal ship.

He suddenly shouted: "The whole army retreats, I will break the back!"

Chao Lei was so anxious that even if he was defeated, how could there be any reason for the Lord to be broken?

Even if you blame yourself, it won't be like this, the king of the Su is the king of a country, anyone in this group of soldiers can die, even if he Chao Lei dies, it's fine, the king must not be fine!

The soldiers of the merchant army suddenly came out of nowhere, and those who could find the bow and crossbow would shoot with the crossbow, and those who lost the bow and crossbow would pick up the spear and prepare to ride the wooden plank and rush to the big ship of the Vietnamese army to fight to the death.

Even the rowing soldiers pounced back on the oars, desperately pulling the oars.
