Shangguan Daogang on the main ship of Gaoguli was about to order the launch of their giant crossbow arrows to give the Tang Navy a counterattack!
But before he could say anything, he heard a loud bang, and then he saw the flames of his warship in front of him.
The screams were endless. A famous Gogouli sailor, dressed in fire, jumped from the ship into the sea. He couldn't do it without jumping. His whole body was on fire. Only by jumping into the sea could he extinguish the fire on his body.
Seeing this scene, Shangguan Dao swallowed his saliva and couldn't believe what he saw.
"Sir, are we dreaming?" Cui Shi, who had just delivered the order, asked Shangguan Dao.
Shangguan Dao also hoped that the scene he saw before him was a dream, but it was not. Cui Shidu asked, how could it be a dream?
They stopped here to avoid the wind and waves, and they provoked whoever. How could they be so unlucky to meet the Tang Navy?
At this moment, he finally knew why the Japanese people said that the Tang Navy was powerful. Is this powerful? This horse is not a human being. What are they using? Why is this happening?
Questions appeared in Shangguan Dao's mind, but unfortunately no one could answer them for him.
Compared to the shock of going up the pipe, Liu Rengui was overjoyed. After the first round of Iron Pimples achieved results, Liu Rengui knew that this battle was a sure win.
After achieving victory in the first round, they naturally pursued the victory. Under his command, the second round of iron lumps was also loaded onto the crossbow and launched.
In the port, the Goguryeo ships wanted to sail away to escape, but they couldn't escape in the harbor and could only be beaten.
He was hit by crossbow arrows tied with iron knots. There were fires burning everywhere on the deck. There were basically no people on the ship. Those who could jump into the sea jumped into the sea. If you don't jump, you will die. If you jump into the sea, There is still a way to survive by swimming to the island.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Shangguan Dao was a little distracted. He knew that he had been defeated. He was completely defeated. He originally thought that he had an advantage in the harbor, but now it seems so ridiculous. If he had known that this would happen, he would have said We have to move the fleet out of the harbor no matter what. If we can't fight, we can still escape, but now we can't even escape, and we are being locked behind closed doors and beaten.
"Hand out the flag, we surrender, surrender! Tell them to stop fighting!" Shangguan Dao gritted his teeth and issued an order for the first time in his life.
The generals around him couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief after hearing Shangguan Dao's order. It was better to be captured than to fight to death. He didn't see that all the crew members of his own fleet jumped into the sea. What a slap in the face. Keep fighting. Also seeking death.
Soon, Liu Rengui received a report from his men that the Goguryeo people had surrendered. After receiving such news, Liu Rengui did not express anything. After the first round of crossbow arrows achieved results, he knew that there would be no problem in this battle.
It's just that he didn't expect that the Koguryo people would surrender, but it was good to surrender because he didn't need to consume his iron lumps. Although he brought a lot of this thing, it was better to save a little. They all relied on this thing in their naval battles. , if there was no iron knot, this naval battle would have to be fought with real swords and guns, and the losses would be huge.
He didn't want to try a springboard fight with real swords and guns.
Although the Gaoguli people sent a signal to surrender, the Tang Dynasty Navy did not take it lightly. It only sent a few ships into the harbor to control the enemy ships. Most of the ships were still outside the port. As long as the Gaoguli people If there is any unscrupulous move, they will launch a devastating attack on Gaoguli's ships again!
Fortunately, the people of Gaoguli were really frightened and did not take any action. Instead, they honestly let the sergeants of the Royal Navy of the Tang Dynasty board their ships and take over their ships.
Seeing this scene, Liu Rengui breathed a sigh of relief and ordered all the ships to enter the port. The storm outside was no joke, and it was getting bigger and bigger. If they start a war with the Gaoguli people in a while, they might not be so relaxed. After all, if the warship is unstable, the fired crossbow arrows will be deflected. With this deviation, the crossbow arrows will not be able to hit the Gaoguli warship, but will fall into the sea. How can we fight this battle?
If the people of Gaoguli knew about it, they would be so angry that they would vomit blood. They could only blame Tianshi for not being on their side.
An hour later, Shangguan Dao was brought in front of Liu Rengui. Looking at the general of the Gaoguli fleet in front of him, Liu Rengui said to the translator who understood the Gaoguli language: "Ask him, why did they come here?"
The translator hurriedly conveyed these words to Shangguan Dao.
Hearing Liu Rengui's question, Shang Duan's eyes flickered. It was obvious that he had no good intentions here, and he didn't seem to want to say it.
Liu Rengui snorted coldly and said: "If you don't want to be thrown into the sea to feed the fish, just tell me honestly. I'm afraid you are not the only one who knows this. If I give you another chance, don't blame me if you don't tell me!"
The words were quickly translated into Gaoguli language. Shangguan Dao's expression changed slightly. Liu Rengui was right. He was not the only one who knew about this matter. His deputy general and the supervisors on the ship also knew about it. , just because he doesn’t say it doesn’t mean others don’t say it.
At that moment, Shangguan Dao said: "We are here to prepare to go to Langya Mountain of the Tang Dynasty, land there, and launch an attack on Langya County! We will cooperate with the Turks to harass the Tang Dynasty, so that the leaders of the Tang army will not be able to care about each other!"
"What role can you guys play?" Liu Rengui sneered.
Goguryeo also has more than a dozen ships here, and only a few thousand sergeants are included in them. Thousands of people going to Langya County may pose a certain threat at the beginning, but they will definitely be wiped out by the Tang army after they react. Langya County Not weak, that is the home base of the Shandong nobles. If you are weak, you will have trouble.
"We are just the first batch. There are two other fleets approaching Langya Mountain. The number is about the same as ours. The total number of troops is about 20,000. Not only our Gaogouli people, but also the Japanese people have also sent three The fleet is approaching Langya Mountain and is preparing to attack from there. There are also a lot of people. We occupy Langya County here. The Turks are coming from the north and south, and the Tang army has nothing to do. In addition, I heard that the Tubo people are also preparing to cooperate with the Turks in launching an attack. , If this is true, Datang will not be able to resist it!" Shangguan Dao poured the basket out of the bamboo tube and told everything he knew completely.
But it was these words that shocked Liu Rengui, who was originally calm.
Goguryeo had more than one fleet? Three more? Are Japanese people also involved? Also three fleets? There are even Tibetans?
If this is true, the Tang Dynasty is in danger!
"Is what you said true? If I find out that what you said is false, do you know what will happen to you?" Liu Rengui stared at Shangguan and said.
"Of course what I said is absolutely true. I was caught by you. Do I need to lie to you about this kind of thing? Besides, it won't be long before you get the news! You don't need me to say anything!" Shangguan Dao said slowly.
