Chapter 395 The river is flowing with water
At first, we were just depressed, and everyone was chatting and venting together, but I didn’t know who put the wine at the door. These people thought that it was just a little bit of wine, no big problem, you drank it one sip and I drank it one sip.

No one expected that when the ugly hour came, Qi Guogong would let people sneak into the water quietly, taking advantage of the unclear moonlight tonight, to quietly approach the warships of the Jiangnan Navy.

The vanguard soldiers of a battalion are all good at swimming in the water. They enter the water silently and the same goes when they emerge from the water. With tacit cooperation, one ship after another keeps moving forward to harvest the lives of Jiangnan Navy.

Perhaps because of the arrogance of King Chu, or because the conflict between the navy and the private soldiers has not been completely resolved, the people on patrol on King Chu's side were particularly lazy tonight, and thousands of people were solved secretly without even thinking about it. Know.

Not only that, after the Lingnan Navy pushed people into the canal, they occupied the small warship.

With the same armor, even the patrolmen didn't find anything wrong with it.

It wasn't until the smell of blood drifted along the wind that the Jiangnan Navy patrol realized something was wrong. They illuminated it with a torch, but found nothing.

The soldier scratched his head, turned around and said, "I'm going to tell the general, please pay attention."

These people felt that the soldier was scared, so they laughed and nodded in agreement. After he left, they started chatting, and no one noticed that there was a layer of oil on the canal.

The limit of the Lingnan navy was to enter the water and kill in half an hour, so when the appointed time came, the Lingnan navy secretly entered the water again, destroyed the opponent's small warship, and then quietly dived back.

It wasn't until they left the Jiangnan Navy that one of the soldiers took out an oil paper bag from his arms, blew on the fire stick, and threw it on the river.

The Lingnan Navy no longer cared about exposing their whereabouts and ran back as hard as they could. The little fires behind them quickly burned into a piece because of the tung oil. They were carried by the wind and quickly ignited. Their vanguard small warship.

The flames shot into the sky, lighting up half of the sky.

The patrol officers who were still talking before were dumbfounded when they saw the raging fire that suddenly ignited.

After a long while, one of the soldiers suddenly shouted: "The water is running out!"

These three words seemed to untie the dumb points of other patrol personnel, and the tight throats of these people were instantly washed away.

"Go to the water!"

"Turn the ship around, quickly!"

There is oil on the river, they are below the river, and the wind direction is also towards them. If they do not turn the bow of the boat in time and withdraw from the river area, they may be completely wiped out!

Gu Yufan's navy immediately became in chaos. Those who tried to turn the ship around asked the prince and general to give orders.

There were many figures in the firelight, and it was a lively scene.

Duke Guo of Qi stood at the bow of the ship, looking at all this with his hands behind his back, his face illuminated by the fire full of seriousness.

"My lord."

A general came forward to report the situation: "The vanguard beheaded more than 3,000 rebels and are expected to burn fifty of the opponent's small warships."

Fifty small warships, equivalent to half of the opponent's small warships, were damaged and came in.

Duke Guo of Qi nodded slightly and said, "Have the soldiers of the left battalion gone ashore?"

The general nodded in response: "The vanguard landed ashore before entering the water. There was no news, so the other party probably did not come ashore."

Before going to Lingnan, Qi Guogong specially collected information on the generals of the Jiangnan Navy and was familiar with each general's combat methods.

If they sneak attack on the other side, the other side will definitely sneak attack on them, and they will definitely seek foreign aid.

For example, there are troops stationed in Ningzhou and Yunzhou. Due to the huge difference in the number of people, Duke Qi only dared to send one battalion to stop him, but he did not expect that the other party would not respond at all.

Not only that, in tonight's battle, they also caused the opponent such huge losses!
Duke Guo of Qi was a little confused: "Find a way to find out who is the general who is calling the shots this time..."

Before he could finish his words, the general next to him asked: "My lord, could it be the King of Chu himself?"

Any general who has been on the battlefield cannot fail to understand that soldiers are valuable and quick.

Duke Guo of Qi turned to look at the man and said with a smile: "What you said makes sense!"

Otherwise, he couldn't figure out who would be so stupid not to seize a good opportunity like tonight.

Duke Guo of Qi turned around and said: "Give me the order and let each battalion prepare and act according to the plan!"

The generals waiting on the side clasped their fists and said, "Yes!"

Compared with the chaos of the Jiangnan Navy, everything in the Lingnan Navy seemed orderly.

After receiving the news, the Lingnan Navy who had been waiting on the shore quickly moved behind the Jiangnan Navy.

Qi Guogong and Gu Yufan had the same idea of ​​cutting off the opponent's retreat.

At the same time, the Lingnan Navy led its troops to press forward and stopped at this end of the fire. Following the order of Qi Guogong, the archers fired their bows and arrows in unison.

Arrows with tung oil flames were fired in unison, causing the soldiers who had not waited for the general's notification to become even more panicked.

I wanted to turn the ship around, but the gaps between the warships were extremely narrow. There was a sea of ​​fire in front of me, and a large warship in the rear blocked the way.

Without the commander's order, the soldiers were almost dying of panic.

At this time, Gu Yufan was sleeping.

Although he had been accustomed to taking boats since he had been in Jiangnan for so many years, this was the first time he had been on a boat for such a long time. Gu Yufan was naturally exhausted both physically and mentally, and he just wanted to go ashore early tomorrow morning to do some activities.

So after all the generals who were discussing the matter went down, Gu Yufan fell into a deep sleep.

And the generals were drinking heavily, even though they didn't drink much, but they were all so soundly asleep that the soldiers couldn't wake them up even if they knocked on the door.

Ling Jinhua walked out slowly wearing a thin cloak: "What's the matter, so noisy?"

The soldier seemed to have found a backbone: "Concubine, the war started on the Duke of Qi's side, but the generals can't find them. I wonder if the prince..."

Due to the arrows fired by the opponent, many medium-sized warships were damaged, not to mention the soldiers on the warships.

The soldier took a breath and hurriedly said: "The enemy attacked us secretly. The river was covered with tung oil. The soldiers did not dare to jump into the river. Now I beg the prince to give the order to make the last warship in the team start to turn around."

The soldiers all act according to the general's orders. As long as the prince sends a signal, the soldiers will not be like headless flies.

The soldier said anxiously: "I'm sorry for the concubine."

Ling Jinhua turned her head to look at the fire that was already rising into the sky not far away. The corners of her mouth could not help but curl up. The moment she turned around, her brows furrowed unconsciously: "I know this, but the prince is not feeling well today. You'd better find everyone first." The general is."

The soldier agreed with a grimace. Seeing that the door was closed, he turned around and left...
