The next day, the Jade Dragon Fleet was still parked in place, with no intention of leaving.
Soon the spy came back excitedly.
"General, good news."
"The reason why the Jade Dragon Fleet is parked there is that there is a problem with the main ship's keel. It cannot move now and is about to be repaired."
Buzz
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard it.
However, Ishikawa Taki was still hesitant.
He frowned deeply, "What a coincidence?"
"General, it's no coincidence, not at all."
The other soldiers were so anxious that they hurriedly spoke out.
"The Jade Dragon Fleet has been stationed outside with Xiao Zheng in the past few years. It has rarely returned to the port for inspection or maintenance. It is normal for problems to occur occasionally."
"In my opinion, this news is ninety-nine times true. Lu Yulong and we fought several battles at Jinlongtan, and then went to the east of Baekje and fought a big battle with General Jiudang. After all this, everyone It is completely normal for the ship to have some problems."
"That's right. It is said that the Okryong actually went into battle in the East China Sea of Baekje and collided head-on with General Shibao's Shibao. They were both generals. As a result, the Shibao ship sank and killed everyone. It is estimated that the Yuryong was also seriously injured."
Others were even more enlightened.
"No wonder they returned to Yunchui alone. It must be that the main ship was badly damaged and they had to go back to repair it."
After saying that, everyone looked at Ishikawa Taki, their eyes full of desire and fighting spirit.
Ishikawa Taki seemed not to have heard anything and stood silently in front of the map, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"General?" someone couldn't help but say, "Fighters only come once in a lifetime and are fleeting."
"General, don't think so much. The Jade Dragon is broken down, and there are no ambush around. Besides, the location is still far away from Yunchui's homeland. Let's just go and do what he brewed."
…
The generals explained their reasons one after another, and Ishikawa Taki slowly nodded.
boom!
He pointed heavily at the parking spot of the Jade Dragon Fleet.
"Suzuki Yamato, Nei Masato, Saejima Kazuma."
The three generals were delighted and stood up immediately.
"My subordinate is here."
"Go back and prepare immediately. We will take advantage of the darkness tonight and rush to the berthing point of the Jade Dragon Fleet to surround them. We must ensure that no ship is leaked and all are left there."
"Do you hear me clearly? If a boat is leaked, you can jump into the sea and kill yourself."
"Yes!" the three responded loudly.
The other generals were envious and regretful, but it didn't take so much to kill a chicken, so they had no choice but to leave.
However, just after noon, another spy's boat sailed toward Shangyang Island like an arrow.
Doi Yongren was leading his troops to patrol around Shangyang Island, and when he saw it, he came up to him.
"You are all in such a hurry, what happened to the Jade Dragon Fleet?"
"Back to the General," the spies gasped and wiped the water off their faces, "The Jade Dragon Fleet seems to have repaired the ship, and it looks like it will pull anchor and leave soon. My subordinates must report to General Ishikawa as soon as possible."
After saying that, the boat squeaked and hurriedly left again, heading towards Shangyang Island.
"Oops!"
Doi Yuto raised his head and glanced at the sky, feeling anxious.
It's only noon now, and Suzuki's fleet won't set off until the evening.
The two sides are separated by hundreds of miles. Even if Lu Yulong moves slowly, it will not be easy for Suzuki's three fleets to catch up.
"General," the guard next to him came over.
"Since General Ishikawa has decided to eat the Jade Dragon Fleet, who is the Yamato soldier?"
"That's right," someone next to him agreed, "General Ishikawa has always been cautious and asked Suzuki and others to set off at night just to be safer. Now that Lu Yulong wants to run away, why not we go directly to stop them."
"Yes." Another guard was even more eager to try.
"The keel of the Yulong is damaged, and it will definitely not be repaired hastily. Therefore, the Yulong fleet now only has one war general class and less than forty battle camp class ships. Our Doi fleet wants to eat them all at once It is indeed a bit difficult. But if you stop it, there is absolutely no problem."
"Yes. General! Are our Tufei fleet afraid of Lu Yulong's half-broken fleet? If we don't stop them now, they will go far away."
The more Doi Yongren listened, the more excited he became.
Pooh!
He spat his itchy mouth into the wind.
"God helps me. The east wind is blowing now. Send the order immediately, so brothers put up the sails. Let's stop Lu Yulong first..."
It would be best to eliminate them all in one fell swoop.
Let others see the power of their Doi fleet.
Wow.
The flags were sent out quickly.
The Doi fleet quickly turned around and headed westward like an arrow.
Such a large fleet turned away, and Ishikawa Taki in Shangyang Island got the news almost at the same time.
"Damn it, what are you going to do, Yoshito Toichi?"
It was quiet.
The spy's boat had not reached Shangyang Island yet, and the people around him had no idea what was going on.
Not long after, the spy's message finally arrived.
After hearing this, Ishikawa Taki became even more furious.
"What's going on in this bastard's head? If Lu Yulong wants to leave, just let him go."
The military advisor stood up.
"General, now is not the time to talk about this. We can either rush to support and send the Jade Dragon Fleet to the bottom of the sea as soon as possible; or we can immediately order Doi Yongren to withdraw, so as not to alert the enemy."
"Order?" Ishikawa Taki sneered, "How to give an order?"
The sea is not land, and it is impossible to rush the order to Doi Yongto for 800 miles.
As for the semaphore, the semaphore cannot travel very far across the vast sea.
Even if a small ship is sent to catch up and send out the semaphore, there is nothing that can be done if Yuto Toi says he has not received it.
"Where are Suzuki and the others? Let them set out to support immediately."
Suzuki Yamato and others were not surprised when they received the news.
They have long been prepared to land on the coast of Yunchui. In recent times, it can be said that almost all the ships are ready to go, just waiting for the order from the generals above.
As soon as Ishikawa Taki's order arrived, three huge fleets sailed westward in a hurry.
The Doi fleet sped up and chased from noon until midnight in the evening, when they could vaguely see the sparse lights ahead.
"Hurry up." Doi Yuto was shocked, "The Jade Dragon Fleet is ahead. Brothers, work harder, catch up and hold them down."
As for the battle plan, Dohi Yuto and the ships had already made plans during the pursuit.
There were three warships in the Doi fleet, two of which took part of the war camp class to go around to the west to intercept, while the main ship he was on was harassing and delaying the opponent from behind.
————
Jade Dragon Fleet, main ship.
Lu Yulong sat calmly on the deck of the Yulong, raising his head and silently looking at the stars in the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
boom.
There was a muffled sound.
Some of the guards jumped down from the tall mast.
"General, there is a Japanese pirate fleet chasing us."
"He brewed it, and finally a fish took the bait."
Lu Yulong nodded, stood up and walked to the stern of the ship, raised his binoculars and looked.
The stars were shining brightly, and the flag of the fleet behind was flying, with the two characters "TUFE" written on it.
hehe.
"It turns out to be Yuto Toichi."
Lu Yulong chanted this name.
When you come out to lead the army, you must understand as much as possible whether it is the enemy you are fighting or the friendly forces you are traveling with. This is Lu Yulong's habit.
These include the name and character of the opponent's general, the number of his subordinates, the combat power of the ships, and even the close relationship with the general.
"This guy has strong limbs and a simple mind, and he is very happy with his achievements. As long as others praise him a little, he will make himself fat. In addition, he has never been taken seriously by Ishikawa Taki, so he always wants to win a big victory and then gain recognition in front of the generals at the same level. Save face."
Such people are easier to deal with.
"After passing the order, the fleet formation changed into a diamond-shaped defensive state and turned to Dingshui Pier in Huayang County."
"All ships increase their speed, but it doesn't have to be too fast. Just keep eight to ten miles away from Doi's fleet. Just let Doi Yūto feel that he can catch up with us if he works harder."
No one had any objections, and the messenger quickly passed Lu Yulong's order to other ships.
In an instant, the sound of water being pulled out was heard.
The Jade Dragon Fleet increased its speed while changing its formation.
First latest.
