Li Gui happily brought his brothers to the shore and looked at the warships cruising in Liangshan with great force.

The army warships were divided into two groups. One group was larger in number and was cruising around Liangshan from a distance. It kept switching its sails and turned, just circling and refusing to get closer. It was clear that it wanted to trap everyone in Liangshan to death in the water. within.

The modification of these warships was obviously guided by professional shipwrights, and it is no longer obvious that they were modified from painted boats.

The cables above are arranged neatly and orderly to prevent them from hindering the fight when engaging the enemy.

The bulwarks are very high and can be used by naval forces to block arrows.

There are crossbows hanging on both sides, with arrows six feet long and as thick as a child's arm, and fishing nets lined up on the bulwarks. It is a nightmare for any ship or water ghost trying to get close.

The only flaw is that the navy army is obviously very amateur. It is even inferior to Liang Shan's navy army. Most of them are heroes who have just changed careers.

The other group, which was smaller in number and only had a few warships, was stationed further back. The two groups of fleets were several miles apart, neither approaching nor far away.

But just looking at the size of those ships and the flags waving in the wind, you know that they are the real core of the warships, which are clearly controlled remotely from the rear.

Li Gui's eyesight was very good and he could see clearly. On the deck of the warship, there were some unknown objects lined up in a row. They were covered with white cloth and guarded by soldiers on each side.

Behind those things stood a group of military attachés, and the one in the center was clearly Song Jiang.

On both sides of him were Wu Yong and Chao Gai, with a dense crowd of people standing behind him.

Li Gui didn't look carefully, but he knew without looking that they were all "Liangshan heroes" who had defected to Song Jiang.

Although Liangshan still has naval forces, it is impossible to get close to those large ships, let alone pose any threat to the official army.

The officers and soldiers also knew that Land War was no match for them, so they only showed off their power in the water from a distance and did not move towards the shore at all.

"Thief!"

"It's certain we can't reach them, right?"

Li Gui spit hard, turned around and ordered:

"Bring the trebuchet over and send someone on board!"

"I will show those officers and soldiers what a human cannon is!"

Zhu Wu immediately arranged for someone to go back and carry the trebuchet. Na Ma Ling looked on, then stepped forward and volunteered:

"Brother, my two wheels of wind and fire are a refined magical weapon. No matter the mountains, rivers, or cliffs, it is like walking on flat ground. Why don't you let me give it a try first?"

Everyone had seen the strangeness of his two wheels, and it was not surprising at this time. Only Li Gun took a group card and handed it over, saying:

"The officers and soldiers are very dense with bows and arrows. Brother Ma Ling brought this group of cards to protect himself."

Ma Ling took the group card and tied it to his chest. He held a long halberd in his other hand, chanted the magic formula, activated the wind and fire wheels, and stepped into the water, like a dragon walking in the sea. A white line was drawn on the water, and a gust of wind blew toward the fleet.

There was a bang on the opposite side, and archers from each ship rained down arrows.

The horse spirit was not in a hurry, twisted his body, and the wind and fire wheels drew an arc on the water, then passed all the arrows and continued to move forward.

He was about to reach the bow of the boat, and Ma Ling was about to turn the wheels to get up, when suddenly a white light flashed from the boat next to him, hitting him in the chest, knocking him off the wheels and falling straight into the water.

Two naked men immediately jumped out of the boat. A moment later, they jumped out of the water with Ma Ling under their arms and carried them onto the boat.

The surrounding officers and soldiers came up, holding ropes in their hands, and were about to tie them up when they suddenly heard a loud "bang" on the shore in the distance. Then the light above them dimmed, and a violent voice sounded from above.

"Thief!"

"What do you want to do to my brother Ma Ling?"

Everyone hurriedly looked up, only to see that Li Gui had appeared in mid-air at some point, his figure even blocking the sun.

Under the scorching sun, Li Gui's dark face looked like a devil, glaring at everyone on the deck.

Everyone's hearts suddenly jumped when they saw Li Gui swing the long iron rope in his hand and wrap it around the mast of his battleship. With a little effort, it crashed towards the deck.

At this time, no one cared about the prisoners anymore. Without saying a word, they turned around and ran away. They rushed to the side of the ship, jumped and plunged into the water.

Li Gui was like an evil Rakshasa, with a terrible reputation. Before he even landed, the deck was already empty.

With a loud bang, Li Gui shattered the surface deck with his foot, reaching up to his knees.

He stood up on the deck and looked around. Sure enough, the ship was empty. Not only was the ship empty, but the surrounding ships also began to adjust their sails and prepare to retreat.

"Ri Xie Niang!"

"It's so easy!"

Li Gui cursed and ignored the ships. Instead, he leaned over to look at Ma Ling.

Seeing that Ma Ling was just drowning and not in danger of life, he turned him over and patted his back a few times, causing Ma Ling to choke and cough.

Li Gui just put Ma Ling down and was thinking about joining another gang to fight and grab a few more boats to come back. Unexpectedly, he suddenly heard a "boom" from the horizon, followed by a "whoosh" sound, and more than ten huge The stone bullets flew through the air, targeting the warship at his feet.

He looked up along the path of the cannonballs and saw that several warships in the distance had lifted up the white cloth, revealing the dark muzzles below.

Song Jiang and others also stepped aside to reveal the man hiding at the back.

Under this broad daylight, Li Gui could see clearly that the familiar face was clearly the Earth Axis Star Ling Zhen who had hit him with a cannon in Tokyo City!

It turns out this is a trap.

The so-called water war is just a cover, the real trump card lies with Ling Zhen.

When he was on Liangshan Mountain before, Wu Yong listened to Li Gui bragging while drinking. He once talked about Ling Zhen's power, and there were many words of praise and regret in his words.

He does not mean that.

In Wu Yong's opinion, this Li Gui has no talent left and always looks like he is invincible, yet he praises Ling Zhen so much that he must be a master as well.

But when he returned to Liangshan and arrived at the Song Army, he asked Song Jiang to inquire secretly, and found out that Ling Zhen was just a deputy gunner in the Jiazhanku, a minor official with no rank, his martial arts skills were mediocre, and he had no Ability like magic is not surprising at all.

Although he didn't think much of Ling Zhen in his heart, it happened that his plan included destroying the ship and Ling Zhen was needed, so he asked the court to send Ling Zhen over.

Wu Yong didn't know that Li Gui's eyes could see miles away. He didn't intend to hide Ling Zhen before, but when it came to closeness and distance, Ling Zhen should stand at the back.

Now when it was time to use Ling Zhen, Ling Zhen was revealed.

I haven’t saved any manuscripts. Starting from today, I can only do 4k every day.
