Xia Cheng looked at the backs of these three most outstanding rising stars in the rivers and lakes, thinking that they could still joke before the war, so calm, he secretly admired it in his heart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Mrs. Yang also conveyed the order of tonight's sneak attack to Zhou Lun, Yang Qin, and Yang Hua, and asked them to send troops to cooperate, while he and Luo Tianchu, Liu Shaoqing, and Li Qingwan returned to Junshan Dazhai by boat to prepare for the battle.

As the first of the seventy-two villages in Dongting, Junshan Water Village is the strongest in addition to the strongest fortifications, and the strength and equipment are also the first in the whole army. Seven of the twelve four-masted chariots and ships are stationed here, and there are also 600 small and medium-sized warships, and there are more than 30 wharves, which are connected together, like a water town. All the idlers and others on the docks had been cleared, and only the soldiers carried boxes of bows and arrows, harpoons, slings, wooden crows, and other water fighting equipment to the boat.

Mrs. Yang asked them to go back to their rooms to rest, and it was not until the end of the day that they gathered everyone in the meeting hall. Because Liu Shaoqing and Li Qingwan's cavalry had to set off in advance, the preparations were tight, so they came a little late, except for Luo Tianchu, the remaining six people in the tent were the commanders of the 'Water Division Legion', and the original Junshan Water Army was divided into six towns, and each of them was responsible for commanding a town, and they were directly ordered by Yang Tai during the battle, and then Yang Tai's orders were issued to the soldiers. The six town water generals had just learned the news of tonight's sneak attack, they were both nervous and excited, and after Mrs. Yang's generous speech, the fighting spirit in their hearts had been ignited, and they vowed to fight to the death with the Song army. Mrs. Yang ordered them to return to the ship and stand by to deliver the news to the soldiers.

After the six left, Liu Shaoqing and Li Qingwan came to report in military uniforms. Both were wearing armor for the first time. Liu Shaoqing swept away his tired and casual expression, his tiger eyes were shining, he was mighty and upright, calm and calm, and he had the style of an ancient general. Li Qingwan is heroic, the woman does not let her eyebrows, the heavy armor covers the moving figure, but it looks more toned and dynamic, with a pair of peony flower guns, it is simply another Mu Guiying.

Yang Tai said happily: "The two seem to be heavenly soldiers and female generals, and the burden of the sneak attack will be entrusted to you." Liu Shaoqing said: "The 10,000 cavalry have been fed and ready to go in Yueyang, I don't know when we will act." Yang Tai said: "Let's go now, you have to go farther by land, and you have to save horsepower, it is not advisable to move forward at full speed, just cooperate with us to launch a general attack with Yin." Liu Shaoqing didn't know if he was dyed by the atmosphere, and said, "Get an order." ”

Luo Tianchu laughed and said: "Brother Liu used to think that when he was singing the wind and playing the moon, he would also lead the troops to go out one day. Liu Shaoqing knew that he was reporting on this morning's fishing incident, and chuckled: "I can fight on the horse, and I can play the piano when I get off the horse, and I can expect it." Luo Tianchu smiled, saw the long weapon in his hand, which was a long stick sharpened with a knife, and said, "Brother Liu is so majestic, why did he take a beggar's cane?" Liu Shaoqing handed him the wooden stick and said, "Look at it." Luo Tianchu began to look at it with disdain and immediately showed a solemn look, this long stick seems to be unattractive, but the lines of each knife are as natural and smooth as flowing water, and there is an indescribable mysterious way in the natural way, no matter where you hold it, it feels smooth, and the weight is just right. Luo Tianchu sighed and said, "I will take back that contemptuous sentence, and only Brother Liu can cut such a long stick." Liu Shaoqing retrieved the stick and said, "Take care." Luo Tianchu also said solemnly: "You too." The two looked at each other and smiled, Liu Shaoqing turned around and walked away, and Li Qingwan threw a wink at Luo Tianchu and followed.

When the time came, Mrs. Yang and Luo Tianchu stepped on the handsome ship, and the two decks were lined with soldiers wearing leather armor and swords and guns, more than 2,000 people. In order not to expose the target, there was no fire on all the ships, and it was forbidden for soldiers to speak loudly, and the six hundred ships emitted the "squeak" of soldiers stepping on the pedals when they boarded the ship and the sound of the hull swaying slightly. The six town water generals sent people to hold lanterns with numbers from one to six written on them at the boarding place, so that the soldiers who boarded the ship could board the ship with the right number to avoid mistakes.

Yang Tai was wearing a golden helmet and golden armor, wearing a red cloak, standing on the bow of the second deck, pressing the side of the ship, looking at the ink-stained sky of the lake and sky, his mind was agitated, full of ambition, he knew that this battle was not only related to the survival of the Dongting Gang, but also related to his own opportunity to compete for the world, if he could defeat Yue Fei's army in one fell swoop, the Song Dynasty would no longer have the strength to deal with itself, and the time to conquer the world would come. Luo Tianchu looked at his back, thinking that Yang Tai can be described as the world's number one expert in water warfare, although Han Shizhong of the Song Dynasty is also good at water warfare, but compared to the quality and quantity of his warships, there is a big gap, even if the command level is equal, it will be defeated, and only a genius commander like Yue Fei can force Yang Tai to this step, although the battle of Dongting is a battle of water warfare, Yue Fei can not use a water war to hit you, and even take the initiative without using a soldier.

After a while, the kung fu soldiers had boarded the ship, and Mrs. Yang's herald raised a yellow lantern, on which the word "Qi" was written, and suddenly heard the sound of "banging" paddling like a huge wave, breaking the silence of the night. The legions of the first and second towns were the vanguard, the first to be pulled, the two wing legions of the third and fourth towns and the middle legion led by Yang Tai also pulled the anchor, and finally the guard corps of the fifth and sixth towns.

Luo Tianchu looked around and was amazed, more than 600 warships walked together like a slowly moving village, each ship was like a house, rolling as far as the eye could see, like a giant beast swimming on the surface of a dark lake, silently looking for prey, you can imagine how powerful this giant beast will be when the enemy appears.

At the beginning, in order to adjust the spacing, the speed of travel was not fast, when the formation was arranged, the starter raised the lantern of the word "line", this "behemoth" suddenly accelerated, the flying ferry showed an amazing ability to travel, and the paddle hands hidden in the cabin boarded the ship with their feet, which was not only labor-saving and powerful, and for a time the prizes shook together, and the wind and waves went forward. Mrs. Yang ordered the helmsman to keep the course, not to relax his vigilance, to know that the most dangerous thing to sail at night is to be in danger, the reef and shallow are difficult to reach with the naked eye, it is easy to be in distress, not to mention that there is no ignition on the ship, the line of sight is not good, but also to maintain the formation and advance, the difficulty can be imagined. Only the helmsman of the Dongting Navy dares to sail like this, although it is due to the usual water training, more importantly, they have lived on Dongting Lake for generations, even if they close their eyes, they know the surrounding geography well, when the river is narrow, they prepare in advance, the fleet is close to the middle in advance, and then unfold the formation after slowly traveling, moving forward at full speed, the speed of the fleet, the spacing, and the formation are always the same, Luo Tianchu looked relaxed and happy, and secretly praised.

Mrs. Yang glanced at the fluttering banner of the hunt and said with a smile: "Thank you for the favor of the Lake God, smooth sailing, victory can be expected." Luo Tianchu said: "Aren't you afraid of Yue Fei's spies discovering such a large-scale march?" Yang Taidao: "There will never be Song Army spies in the waters from here to Yunze Village, and after meeting with Zhou Lun's water army, even if there are spies to find out, it will be too late." What's more, there are also Yang Hua, Yang Qin, and Xia Cheng's West Dongting Navy, like a big pocket to put Yue Fei's sailor in, not a single boat wants to run out. After burning their warship, our archers released arrows on the ship to cover the landing of the soldiers, and with Liu Shaoqing's surprise soldiers, the Yuejia army will be wiped out. Luo Tianchu nodded secretly, thinking that Mrs. Yang's tactics were indeed flawless, and the sneak attack of the navy army was no better than that of the land battle, if it was not prepared, the warship that was sneak attacked was like a floating corpse floating on the water, without any combat power at all. But Luo Tianchu always had a strange idea in his heart, feeling that Yue Fei would not be defeated like this, as if something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, maybe Yue Fei's name was too big, and he had already left an invincible impression, but people will inevitably make mistakes, and Yue Fei is no exception. Leave distracting thoughts behind you and devote yourself to this epic water battle.

Zhou Lun's sailors gathered on the south bank of Yunzezhai, with a total of more than one hundred and fifty warships, and their momentum was not small, maintaining a strategic distance from Yang Tai's sailor corps within the naked eye, so that it would not be difficult to support because it was invisible, nor would it be difficult to dispatch because it was too close.

When Mrs. Yang and Luo Tian first saw Zhou Lun's boat, they flashed three times in a row, indicating that they were ready for battle. Mrs. Yang also flashed twice, indicating that she was on standby, and after a quarter of an hour, Mrs. Yang opened her eyes and looked westward, and said strangely: "It's almost time, why haven't Yang Qin, Yang Hua and Xia Cheng's sailors moved yet." Luo Tianchu said: "It should be almost there." Mrs. Yang glanced at the faintly visible lights of the Song Army Water Village on the other side, and said anxiously: "They have not delayed once during the training in normal times, and they are very accurate at all times, so they should have arrived at the same time, what happened this time?" Luo Tianchu showed a thoughtful expression, silent, and Mrs. Yang said: "What does Brother Luo think?"

Luo Tianchu thought about it: "There are two methods for Brother Yang to choose, first, attack immediately, even if there is no water army in West Lake Sanzhai, our army and Yunzezhai have enough strength to defeat the Song army, the so-called soldiers are fast, maybe the spies hiding in the shadows have discovered the assembly of our army, and are on the way back to report the news, if the Song army is fully prepared, our advantage will not be great." Mrs. Yang nodded contemplatively and said, "What about the second way?"

Luo Tianchu said: "Retreat immediately, cancel the sneak attack plan, and we will go to the West Dongting with Zhou Lun's army to inspect and see what happened." Mrs. Yang frowned and muttered, "Canceling the sneak attack is to let go of a great opportunity, and it will be impossible to sneak attack again in the future." Luo Tianchu said: "If it is I will choose the latter, it is the safest, as long as the strength of the naval army is not damaged, even if there are some deserters, it doesn't matter, as long as it lasts until winter, Yue Fei will retreat, and we are still in an invincible position." ”

Mrs. Yang was still silent in thought, obviously unable to make a decision. Luo Tianchu said: "When it is decided, it is decided, and hesitation is a taboo for the coach, please Brother Yang decide." Yang Taiyi gritted his teeth, slapped his palm on the side of the ship, and shouted: "Attack the Song Army Water Village with all your might!" Luo Tianchu showed a trace of uneasiness in his eyes, and an ominous premonition was born in his heart, and he persuaded: "I think it is better to withdraw the army, the West Lake Sanzhai has not arrived for a long time, and the situation is not clear, and the attack is only unfavorable." Yang Taidao: "Maybe one of them went wrong, causing the formation of the Sanzhai coalition army to be unable to form, so that all of them were late." As you said, when the decision is decided, the success or failure of this battle is enough to change the pattern of the world, if I do not fight and retreat, miss the opportunity, I will regret it for the rest of my life. I've made up my mind, and I can only fight to the death!" )
