Chapter 592 Do we also keep a hand?

Compared with the imperial navy who could completely congestion and paralyzing the river, the only fleet left behind by the Liangshan Navy Army seemed a little shabby.m. Lewen Mobile Network's more than 20 large river ships carrying out sniping missions at this time were obviously not on the same level in front of the giant fleet composed of the smallest opponents, which was also a thousand-material sea ships.

"It's a good plan to retreat with the troops taking the initiative, and the warships intercept our army to fight for the time to get ashore!"

Liu Menglong, who was looking for the position, noticed the abnormal movement of Liangshan Army and immediately guessed Hu Yanqing's strategy. He sighed and said, "It's just that he wanted to delay the speed of our army's marching with just over twenty ships. Are you too confident? It seems that this person is brave, but it's a pity that if he is too confident, he will sooner or later lose his son!"

"Which of these generals has nostrils facing the sky?" The commander said in accordance with the commander's words. "But the young general was puzzled. At least Liangshanpo could have gathered more than a hundred big ships. Why did Hu Yanqing carry the tripod when he saw the real sign? Could it be that the three Ruans, Li Jun and others are really famous and have no power to fight except for driving a boat and ferrying people? But he left Hu Yanqing, a widow, on the front line, to imitate the joke of a mantis arm hitting a car!"

"Maybe we didn't expect us to come across the sea! Maybe it's possible that the ship was carrying bandit infantry on the ship and it was inconvenient to fight! You reminded me that you must not ask them to remove the infantry and come to support Hu Yanqing! We sent our military order and ordered the eight battalions of the front army to push them in a flat manner, and not to hurry up and fight. Let's take the ship by hand when they are dizzy!"

The commander quickly sent a command, but heard the drums and roars ringing on Liu Menglong's flagship. Although the sounds were mixed, any expert could understand the meaning. Unfortunately, Hu Yanqing, the commander of the Qianping Navy, was also one of the experts.

"He put a strong medicine as soon as he came up. He wanted to try my best!" Hu Yanqing listened carefully to the drum trumpet in the opposite army and murmured. At this time, he did not hesitate at all, and immediately said: "Give the order. All the water whistle and horses will be withdrawn! The entire army is on guard and prepare for the battle!"

After Hu Yanqing finished speaking, he turned around and took two wet wipes and handed them to Zhu Wudao: "It will be useful in a while!"

Zhu Wu nodded. He took the wet wipes with a serious expression and covered his mouth and nose without saying a word. His action was undoubtedly equivalent to telling Hu Yanqing that in this battle, he, an outsider, would not interfere with Hu Yanqing's command.

Although Hu Yanqing had repeatedly advised him to withdraw with Xie Fu's fleet first, Zhu Wu, as the temporary commander-in-chief, politely declined this kindness. The Liangshan Army did not have the tradition of a battlefield commander standing in the rear. Since Wang Lun set an example in Daming Mansion, this tradition has gradually been preserved.

Hu Yanqing frowned and thought deeply, and issued orders from time to time, adjusting his formation and deploying his soldiers. He only made final preparations for this battle to cut off the rear.

"Bang...bang..."

The two fleets finally encountered the narrow channel of the Beiqing River. The first to open the curtain of the war was the stone throwing machine carried by the official warships. Although Liu Menglong changed the ship in Hangzhou Bay, all the water battle weapons were reluctant to leave. At this time, the ammunition carried by these stone throwing machines was not stones. Instead, the various types of fireballs in the Song Dynasty's naval army, mainly including two major categories, one was poison smoke ball, and the other was burning fireball.

For the Jinling Navy, although this battle is against the current, it has a great advantage: a good wind! The toxic smoke and smoke need to use the wind to expand the effect of blocking and poisoning opponents. There is no need to worry about backlashing yourself. It is really a good thing for the world.

The stone throwers carried by dozens of ships were launched together. In this narrow river, the Liangshan army could not avoid it. Soon, the decks of many ships were already filled with thick smoke. Even though Hu Yanqing had prepared in advance and asked the soldiers to prepare wet towels, the coughing sounds could be heard everywhere were still endless. However, everyone seemed to have expected this. Many people began to act after experiencing the initial panic and poured the sand and soil that had been prepared early on on the burning pile of smoke.

Although the Liangshan Army's defense measures were complete, it was strange that the scene was just a unilateral attack by the official army, while the Liangshan fleet was not moving at all. Liu Menglong even asked if the other party was equipped with a sharp weapon like a stone thrower.

"I will not throw fireballs from all ships, increase the intensity of the smoke balls! The river is now narrow, and when the ships burn out, the infantry of the bandits will come ashore in the morning!" Liu Menglong wanted to seize the time and did not care about using the safest method. In addition, the opponent's weakness also gave him great confidence.

On the Liangshan Army's flagship, several leaders could not bear it anymore and stepped forward to speak to Hu Yanqing and said, "Brother! When will our army fight back??"

The Eighth Battalion is still a new girl in the Liangshan naval army and has never experienced actual combat. Even though Hu Yanqing has good teaching, some small leaders can no longer help but urge the commander.

Hu Yanqing was not anxious, but he had a deeper plan in his mind. He didn't say a word, but just silently counted the distance on the bridge. Seeing this, Zhu Wu took off his towel and said, "What is the first iron rule of our Liangshan Army?"

Seeing that the fifth-ranked military advisor of the village had spoken, the little leader said timidly: "As long as you do everything!"

Zhu Wu did not punish him at this time, but said, "It's good if you know, you can listen to the military orders of Leader Huyan! Let's go down and take your place and set an example for the soldiers!"

Everyone stepped back after hearing this. Zhu Wu looked at Hu Yanqing with some concern at this time. Just as he was about to speak, Hu Yanqing suddenly shouted: "Send the order, the entire army will launch the thunder fireball!"

At this time, the Liangshan fleet, shrouded in smoke, temporarily gave up the flag slogan and beat the drums for a moment. The Liangshan sailor, who had suffered a loss, held his strength and threw out the thunder fireball specially transformed by the leader Ling Zhen of the Shenji Camp for the navy.

Suddenly, countless gunpowder balls with "ears" broke out from the dust, and they were doing parabolic movements toward the Jinling Navy. Liu Menglong's pupils shrank sharply, and countless question marks appeared in his heart in the flash: Since he was equipped with a stone throwing machine, why didn't the Liangshan Army use it?

However, Liu Menglong is a general after all. He thought of Hu Yanqing as he was afraid that he would wait for the official strikers to enter the range before he would give up. However, Liu Menglong still couldn't figure it out and kept in his heart. He thought it was just a thunderbolt fireball. What's the difference between throwing it early and throwing it late?

Before Liu Menglong could wait for a long time, the cruel facts told him the answer. This was not a thunderous fireball, but every landing point was like thunder. The movement was a hundred times more exciting than firecrackers. Liu Menglong saw with his own eyes that a commander in the front lineman was on the passenger boat where the commander of the front line was hit on the bridge, and there was no one standing there.

Liu Menglong took a breath and shouted, "Evil! It's really evil!" The commander beside him was shocked. He knew that the other party's shooting range had reached the top, but he couldn't help but persuade, "Mr., gentlemen do not stand under the wall, please move!"

Liu Menglong had not yet decided whether to go down. The Liangshan Army made another move. This time, there seemed to be some "big guys" mixed in, but the smell was ten times more intense than just now. The roar like a sky collapse made Liu Menglong's eardrums break. When he looked at his front army again, several thousand-material sea ships had begun to sink. The sailors who survived by luck had no fighting spirit and screamed and dived to escape.

"Preface, my husband, should you change the burning fireball? The poisonous smoke ball cannot control these thieves!" The commander shouted in Liu Menglong's ear. Fortunately, these "big guys" are obviously much shorter than the thunder fireball, otherwise the commander would have to drag Liu Menglong down to avoid it if he disobeys his order.

"You are still throwing against these demons? Are you thinking about water? Pass our military orders and press them all up and seize the ship! Hand-to-hand combat!"

It’s not that Liu Menglong lost his composure at this time, because the bandits had a subversive secret weapon. The key is that he didn’t know whether the trump card in the other party was clean. If he didn’t take advantage of the number of people to fight to the death and was bombarded by the other party for a while and his morale completely collapsed, then Liu Menglong would really die without a place to die.

The Jinling Navy was brought out by Liu Menglong, and he poured out countless hard work and sweat. At this critical moment, this group of great Song naval forces who realized that retreating is death, but still have a way to survive. Under the leadership of Liu Menglong's flagship, the whole sail was forcing the Liangshan Army.

"This guy is really a character!" Hu Yanqing sighed when he saw that the other party was beaten so hard that he could withstand it and not retreat. Instead, he bullied himself and wanted to fight with one hand.

"So we Liangshanpo have such magical weapons? Damn it, let it go! I'm just standing there, don't stop, let these guys taste our power!" Cheng Gui said extremely excitedly. A battle that he thought had no chance of winning actually turned dramatically.

"Chief Cheng, there are only two left! All of them are shot?" The sailor in charge of the stone thrower looked embarrassed and looked at Cheng Gui.

Cheng Gui was stunned. He fought smoothly and was unable to do anything at the critical moment. He was still alive. He quickly shouted: "Quickly ask the flagship!"

Faced with the inquiries of various ships, the flagship had no choice. The various ingredients produced by the Song Dynasty each year were originally small, especially the main ingredients of sulfur and saltpeter. Liangshanpo collected it for two years, and it was only a little bit. Wang Lun took Goryeo to account for the vast majority. There were not many people left in the parody at this time, and it was impossible for Hu Yanqing to leave without leaving any, so this unfavorable situation arises.

After the smoke of gunpowder dissipated, the flagship slogan was: "Try to do everything possible and delay for half an hour!"

"boom!"

"boom!!"

"boom!!!"

The violent collision between several sudden strait ships and sea boats announced the arrival of hand-to-hand combat. At present, less than two thousand Liangshan recruits are about to face a challenge of several times their enemies. Not to mention ordinary sailors, leaders like Cheng Gui and Zhai Yuan are all nervous, wondering if they can survive this most severe test in their lives.

"Come here! Escort the military advisor first!" Hu Yanqing pulled out his sword and prepared to go into battle in person, but before that, he had one more thing to do.

"This is running away at the last minute! Brother, you want the brothers in the village to laugh at me, Zhu Wu for the rest of your life..." Zhu Wu said in shock. Unfortunately, before he finished speaking, he was surrounded by the navy troops rushing forward, but after Hu Yanqing's order, he said: "You are tied up and you can only let go when you reach the safe territory!"

"Hu Yanqing! Will you be able to rebel?" Unexpectedly, he was actually held hostage by a group of water troops. Zhu Wu couldn't help but be furious. Hu Yanqing owed Zhu Wu and said solemnly: "If you survive this battle, I will definitely apologize with the military advisor!"

When Zhu Wu, who was struggling, couldn't help but feel sad when he heard this. Although he had a thousand words in his heart, he didn't know what to say. Finally, he just said, "I'm waiting for you to come back and explain to me in person!"

When Hu Yanqing heard this, he laughed generously and waved his hand to escort Zhu Wu away first. At this moment, he suddenly heard the flag bearer on the mast shouting: "Our army ships appear behind! What is hung, what is hung seems to be the banner of our infantry!?"

"What?! Say it again, what flag is it hanging?" Hu Yanqing asked anxiously.

"It's really good, it's indeed the flag of the infantry!" the flag bearer confirmed.

Hu Yanqing and Zhu Wu immediately looked at each other, really not knowing what Sun An, Li Kui and the others were doing.

Almost at the same time, Liu Menglong on the Kezhou Observatory also discovered this situation and punched the platform with a punch, saying very annoyed: "Oh no, I don't expect that these guys have a hand. It seems that this battle is in trouble!"

Seeing this, the commander beside him said, "I finally waited for these guys to use up their mysterious weapons, but they asked them to come again with a new force. What should I do?"

After the commander finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh, and subconsciously turned around. Suddenly, he found that a huge fleet of sea ships appeared in the river channel behind him. The commander, the monk Zhang Er, was confused and puzzled for a while. He then patted Liu Menglong's armor and said:

"Honey! Have we also kept a hand?" (To be continued. (.))
