The struggle of the reborn prince

The transport ships of the Song Army had a hundred or so sailors in the large ones, and thirty to fifty sailors in the small ones. Although they had undergone combat training, they were definitely not good at playing with knives compared with the sailors of the Jinshui Army who were dedicated to fighting in battle. Under the circumstances that their speed was not dominant, they simply parked and formed a formation. The big ships were connected end to end to form a circular formation, and the small boats were interspersed to form an inner defensive circle, so as not to be scattered by the Jin army and smashed one by one.

The walkers of the Jin army broke through the defense line arranged by the warships of the Song army, took advantage of the wind and rushed towards the transport fleet. Ideal target for boarding.When they swelled up their sails, paddled harder, and approached the Song army's transport fleet with all their strength, they saw a flash of fire, and with a bang, there seemed to be a storm blowing on the sea, and they rushed to the front of a walking boat to prepare The sailors who fought fell into the water one after another, and there were countless holes in the sails, and the sea water was bright red.

"Boom, boom..." Explosions sounded one after another, and Jin Jun was hit again and again, and was beaten for a while, and the ones behind immediately learned how to behave, no longer going straight forward, but constantly adjusting the sailing, trying to avoid the artillery fire , but it doesn't seem to have much effect, and I still get tricked frequently.Before this hurdle was over, the crisp sound of "da da..." was heard again on the Song Jun ship, and he saw tongues of fire sweeping across the sea, weaving into a fire net, and a steel storm blew up again!

The mission of the transport ships of the Song Shui Army is mainly to carry soldiers to land and transfer supplies. The self-defense weapons they are equipped with are light rapid-fire guns. They are obviously not powerful enough to fight large warships, and their low range cannot fight against large and medium warships.However, it is very effective in dealing with pirates and suppressing the enemies on the beach when landing, especially when firing cannonballs, it can form a fan with a width of more than ten feet.It has a large killing range and is light in weight and easy to operate.Can shoot quickly to overwhelm the enemy.

The main function of the Jin Army's walker is to transport those commandos who undertake hand-to-hand combat and beach landing, and what they actually do is also the work of the Song Army's transport ships.But they are more flexible and faster.Because the ship is too small to be equipped with heavy weapons such as trebuchets and bed crossbows, it can only rely on the sailors on board to provide firepower, which is nothing more than longbows and crossbows. can't get close...

"Concentrate our forces, annihilate the enemy battleships, and prevent them from approaching the transport fleet!" Liu Han saw that the ground had stabilized for the time being, and the surviving large warships of the Jin Army were the biggest threat to him. The warships at the center concentrated on destroying the enemy.

"Keep a distance from large enemy ships. Collide with the enemy's transport fleet to open the way for the warriors. If you encounter a large enemy ship, you must not drive alongside it. You can only choose an opportunity to ram its stern and board the ship!" Seeing the loss of a general, Chi Zhanhui, Instead, he calmed down. Now that the two armies are fighting together, even if they want to withdraw, it is impossible, and the situation has become endless, he ordered decisively.

At this moment, the generals of the two armies have clearly seen each other's weaknesses and strengths, and wisely chose tactics that are beneficial to them.So a scuffle quickly turned into a decisive battle between soldiers and generals. Both sides used their own means to chase and dodge on the sea, looking for opportunities.To stir up the waves of the sea...

…………

Besides, Xiemao Ali, he sacrificed the former army with the decisiveness of "a strong man broke his wrist" in exchange for his own chance of escape, and groped forward in the dark all night.After all, he had eaten more salt than Chizhanhui for a few years.In the early morning, he found that he had deviated from the course, and his destination was as Song Shuijun's judgment was to return from Yalujiangyuan Road to avoid winter.

But at this time, Xiemao Ali found that the rear army who had become the front army had gone to nowhere.He hurriedly sent out sentry ships to search for and detect the location of Song Shuijun.The fleet took the opportunity to rest and regroup on the sea.The inventory made Xiemao Ali very distressed. Not only did the former army disappear during the one-night submerged voyage, but no fewer than twenty warships capsized in the dark, or fell behind and lost their way. It is not difficult to imagine the ending after leaving the brigade.

"Report to Dutong, the sentry ship searching the northeast direction has returned. They heard the sound of artillery firing, and they were worried that they would be discovered by the Song Army fleet and dare not move forward, so they hurriedly reported back!" Just as Xiemao Ali was thinking hard about how to lie to the Grand Master At that time, some soldiers entered the cabin in a panic to report.

"How far is it from us?" Xiemao Ali asked anxiously.

"Based on the sound of the guns and the sailing time, the sentinel boat judged that it was about thirty miles away from us!" the guard replied.

"It's only thirty miles!" Xiemao Ali murmured in a flustered voice, "How did they rush to the front of us, and which one is fighting them?"

"Dutong, could it be Chizhanhui from the former army?" Atuhan guessed.

"If Chizhanhui and Song Shuijun encountered each other, they would find out our location soon and catch up to us in a short time!" Xiemao Ali said anxiously as he walked around the cabin twice.

"Dutong, the former army may not be able to support it for a long time. Shall we go to support it?" A Tuhan asked again.

"Are you sure of victory?" Xiemao Ali raised his head and stared at Atuhan and asked back.

"This... the last general has no certainty of victory!" Although Atuhan was unwilling to admit it, he still shook his head helplessly and said, facing the strong ships and sharp guns of Song Shuijun, he really did not dare to say victory.

"You go and check the spies on the sentry ship in detail, whether the gunfire is dense and intense!" Xiemao Ali may also feel that it is inappropriate to say that he will not save him in front of his subordinates, so he ordered his soldiers to ask carefully.

"It may be that our lost ship collided with the Song water army. If we rush to them, we will fall into their trap. We are still smart!" Atuhan said with a smile. Chong Shi asked the former army to take the place of the dead ghost, but he was not ashamed in his heart but dared not speak out.

"Dutong, let me check carefully, the sound of the guns heard by the sentinel boat is not intense, and it is intermittent!" After a short time, the soldiers hurried back and reported.

"Well, that means it's just a small-scale encounter, but it's also God's will. We escaped the enemy's trap by mistake!" Xiemao Ali breathed a sigh of relief, and he insisted on his own judgment.

"Dutong, that might be the sentry ship of the Song army, and it's not impossible for the former army to find it!" Atuhan thought for a while before expressing his thoughts.

"Hehe, you really want others to destroy your prestige. If it is only a few warships of the Song army, the hundreds of warships of the former army will not be able to defeat them. After such a long time, he should have defeated the Song army and moved closer here. We will meet right away, if it is the former army!" Xiemao Ali patted Atuhan on the shoulder and said with a smile, ordering the fleets to hoist their sails and prepare.

"Dutong, whether it is the encounter between the sentry ship of the Song army and the former army, or the ambush of the former army by the Song army, they can definitely judge the position of our army based on this. If we still go to Baozhou as planned, will we be killed by the Song army?" If you catch up, you might as well turn to Zhenhai to avoid the Song army's pursuit. Even if you are caught up, there are many islands there, and you can hide and deal with them!" A Tuhan objected.

"Don't do it, don't you forget that we were forced into the strait by the fleet of the Song Dynasty and it was difficult to get out. Besides, the port facilities there are not perfect, it is difficult to dock large ships, and the weather is getting colder every day, and the river freezes early. Don't we want to escape the winter outside!" Xiemao Ali waved his hands.

"Dutong, please think again. We are only half a day away from Zhenhai, and we are still nearly a day away from Baozhou. We are likely to be caught up by the Song navy!" A Tuhan still felt that something was wrong, and advised him again.

"Hmph, are you really afraid of them at all? If they catch up, we will fight them at sea and beat them to death!" Xiemao Ali snorted coldly, "Atuhan, go to the front immediately to lead the navigation, so as not to leave again Wrong way!"

Ah Tu was so rare that he could not be discussed again, he sighed and led the order, got off the flagship, boarded a small boat and boarded his own Chinese army's ship, leading the fleet to turn northwest.Xiemao Ali stood on the ship tower and looked northeast for a long time before returning to the cabin silently. In fact, he had already concluded in his heart that the former army must have clashed with the Song army.Last night, the Chinese army followed the former army all the time, just because the speed of its own ship was too slow and dragged down the entire fleet, while the former army only cared about moving forward to distance itself from the Chinese army. Just calculate the angle and distance of deviation, and the forward It must be the former army no doubt!

After a delay of more than an hour, the Jinshui Army Brigade returned again, and the wind picked up. At noon, the sky cleared and the visibility improved. Xie Mao Ali also felt better. After all, there were more than 100 warships and tens of thousands of them. Life is just thrown away.Now he estimates that at the current speed, the ship will be able to reach the sea off Baozhou when it gets dark, and it will be safe at that time.

"Dutong, something is wrong, we found a fleet behind our left!"

"What?!" Xiemao Ali's mood that had just improved disappeared instantly, "Quick, follow me to check the situation!"

"God is so tricky..." Xiemao Ali climbed to the top of the tall ship and leaned on the parapet to look southeast. He saw a battleship lined up on Haibo appearing at the left rear of his fleet. Although I couldn't see it clearly, I could tell that it was the Song Army's fleet just by looking at the marching army. I tried everything I could to avoid it, but I still bumped into it.

In fact, Xiemao Ali really can't blame God this time, but it was his selfishness that made him make a wrong decision.If he goes to reinforce the former army, then he can just break the deadlock, not only save the former army from danger, but also severely damage the Mingzhou navy, and more importantly, turn to the northwest to escape the pursuit of the main fleet of the Song navy and escape the catastrophe .Furthermore, if he followed Atuhan's advice and turned to Zhenhai to approach the port, he would still be able to pass by the pursuing Song Shuijun, but now there is no village or shop behind, and there is not even a place to hide on the vast sea!

This can be described as the cycle of heaven and law. Repeated hesitation and evasion will eventually lead to bad luck, and it will return to its original appearance due to erroneous circumstances... (To be continued...)
