I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 532
One is that the people on the other side said that they should be far ahead of their own side. Whether it is manipulating the sails or rowing the oars, they are much faster than their own side. It will be a matter of time before they catch up.

The second is that it is easy to go ashore, but if the enemy has enough artillery and hits a fixed target, it is easy to destroy the warship. When the time comes, people on the island will become living targets, and there is only one waiting to die. ending.

So to save the ship is to save everyone's life.

To sum up, whoever holds the command of the sea can laugh at the end.

Therefore, killing the opponent became the only option.

It was precisely because Lin Wuque saw through this point that he did not continue to persuade Chen Hong.

He jumped down from the mast, handed the binoculars to Chen Hong, and said in a low voice,
"Chen Qianhu, the opponent's ship is small and the deck thickness is not as thick as ours. We have an advantage in collision. It is impossible for them not to understand this, but why do they deliberately collide with us?"

Before Chen Hong could speak, a military officer beside him snorted coldly and said,
"It is estimated that they are the same as us, the gunpowder is gone!"

But after staring at the opponent's boat for a long time, Chen Hong said seriously,
"Not necessarily, maybe they want us to think so, but actually..."

"How about it, is it possible that they still want to get close and die with us together."

Chen Hong's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed,
"There is no such possibility!

They are small boats, and we have gathered them several times, and they probably won't last long. It is not impossible that they want to fight us so eagerly because they want to die with us. "

Hearing Chen Hong's words, the military officer panicked.

Under the premise of not knowing how much gunpowder the opponent has left, it is also possible to kill them with the self-destruct of a two-masted sail.

"Are they so crazy? There are so many of them, isn't everyone afraid of death!"

Chen Hong said coldly with a slightly ferocious expression,

"Their ship may be completely destroyed if they die together, but our ship is only damaged on one side of the deck. With a little repair, we can barely sail back to the shore."

"The reason why the other party did this is probably because they want to force everyone under them to fight us to the death."

The more he analyzed, the more he felt that the opponent's leader was not simple.

"This is a dead end in the art of war! It's a decisive battle, and if you win, you will die. It seems that the leader of the opponent must have a lot of background."

Lin Wuque frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice,
"In this way, wouldn't it be more dangerous for us to fight side by side with them?"

Chen Hong nodded and said,
"The number of people we have now is far from theirs. If they are forced by the leader to fight us desperately, we may indeed be defeated!"

"Then what should we do, should we continue to fight with them!"

"Fight, why don't you fight? Since they can resort to such tricks as breaking the boat, it is impossible for us big men to be afraid of these Japanese pirates!"

Following Chen Hong's shout, everyone on the boat was shocked, as if inspired by this hot blood infection, they howled one by one, ecstatically.

"Kill all these bastards and let them see how majestic I am to teach a man!"

"Hmph, if we want to talk about killing the enemy in battle, we still need to look at our officers and soldiers. You can just watch from the sidelines!"

"Hey, why should we watch, if we disagree, let's compare and see who kills more."

"Compare, but if you lose, don't cry!"

"It's not sure who will cry at that time, hahaha!"

Seeing these guys under their respective subordinates bluffing heartlessly, their morale is getting stronger and stronger.

Chen Hong and Lin Wuque unconsciously looked at each other and smiled, feeling inexplicably relieved.

It is also rare for a person to have a chance to live and die with his brothers in his life.

Lin Wuque didn't understand these before, but now he seems to understand.

He escaped when the capital suppressed the disciples of the Ming Sect, and when the imperial army besieged Tongtianya, he also escaped.

Originally, he also had a chance to get away this time, but for some reason, his feet were very stable this time, and he never thought of letting go of everyone and running for his life again.

He looked towards the distant coastline, as if looking at Zhu Zhanji through the vast sea.

"Zhu Zhanji, I used to feel that you were inferior to me in every aspect, but for a woman like that, you are willing to give up the dignity of the prince and risk your life to save her!
At that moment, I felt that I was inferior to you.

But now I can proudly tell you that I am no worse than you! "

"Come on, let's fight, even if you die, so what, I, Lin Wuque, was born as a noble son, enjoying all the wealth and honor in the world, even if I die, I will die vigorously, this life is not in vain!"

The two battleships are getting closer.

Seeing that the two sides were less than ten feet away, Chen Hong pulled Lin Wuque aside and said to him in a low voice,

"Mr. Lin, this battle is bound to be a bloody battle. We are not sure of victory, but I have a plan that may turn things around, but I don't know if you are willing to ask Mr. Lin to act in secret."

Lin Wuque's ignited blood just now extinguished instantly, as if Chen Hong had suddenly poured cold water from a river.

He said with a bitter face,

"Chen Qianhu, since you have a good solution, why didn't you say it earlier, or change someone else, why did you find me."

Chen Hong said a little embarrassedly,
"This matter is not very bright. Seeing that the brothers all regard death as home, I am not ashamed to say it."

Lin Wuque is not that kind of pedantic person, he is still more willing to live well than to die vigorously in battle.

turned around and asked,

"What is the solution?"

Chen Hong whispered to him in a low voice,

"It's like this. Many years ago, when our fleet was sailing to a certain place, we were going ashore for supplies. We were blocked by a special kind of thorn, so the governor ordered people to light it and burn it to open the way...

Unexpectedly, the smoke after burning the thorns has the special ability to make people faint.

Almost all of the more than a hundred of us who went ashore at that time passed out.Fortunately, the thorns are not very poisonous, after sleeping for an hour or two, everyone woke up after being poured with cold water..."

Seeing him talking endlessly, Lin Wuque was a little anxious, and hurriedly said,
"Chen Qianhu, tell me the main point, what exactly do you want me to do!"

Chen Hong smiled a little embarrassedly, and continued,
"The governor saw that this kind of thing was very strange, so he ordered someone to collect some, dried it and planned to study it later. I was one of the generals in charge of collecting this thing at that time. At that time, I secretly collected more..."

At this time, Chen Hong noticed that Lin Wuque looked at him a little strangely, and quickly waved his hand to explain,
"Mr. Lin, don't think too much about it. I was just curious at the time and didn't think about anything else."
