As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed. Yingjiu was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "Oh, Junior Brother Zhu's move is so wonderful. I almost forgot that we also have a powerful stealth warship. It's a killer weapon. In the past year, there have been no water battles against the Jin army, and they no longer use such unexpected tactics. But if the Jin army's warships come, it will be an effective killer weapon. Just Do it!”
Fan Wubing looked at the leader sitting second from the left. This man was dressed in black water, with water droplets all over his body. There was a sharp contrast with the Tianshi Dao leaders who were wearing Taoist robes. He was the Qianlong Warship. The leader of the team, Yao Qichen, at this moment, Yao Qichen is the only one among the cheerful leaders who is silent and does not even have a smile on his face. Even his iconic triangular eyes are lightly The ground narrowed.
Fan Wubing said in a deep voice: "Since we are going to use the Qianlong battleship, should we ask Junior Brother Yao first? Junior Brother Yao, you don't seem to be very happy. Do you have any opinions on this idea of Junior Brother Zhu? ?"
Yao Qichen sighed: "Junior Brother Zhu's idea is very good. If it is during the day, there is no problem in fighting like this. But just now he said that it must be done at night, at the bottom of the dark river, then there is a big problem. .”
The black robe then asked: "What's the problem? Commander Yao, tell me quickly."
Yao Qichen said in a deep voice: "Maybe Junior Brother Zhu doesn't know much about Qianlong warships. Our Qianlong warships are completely sealed when underwater. They don't know the situation outside at all. They can only lurk at the bottom of the river and make arrangements in advance." It's a good position to stay still. When the order comes from outside, it's like the brothers of the Water Ghost Team see the situation outside in the river and then slap the hull. At this time, the lurking Qianlong warship will cut off the anchor stone anchored to the bottom of the water. , floated directly up, appeared behind the enemy, and struck them suddenly."
Zhu Chaoshi nodded: "I see, last time He Wuji was defeated in Yuzhang, the fleet that suddenly emerged from the bottom of the water, especially the giant ship Hailong, were all ambushed in advance like this?"
Yao Qichen curled his lips: "It's not impossible to go backwards for a short distance under the water, but you have to feel the current in advance and be familiar with the conditions at the bottom of the river. After all, there are a lot of rocks and reefs at the bottom of the river. If you are not careful, you will be If the bottom of the boat is scratched, knocked through, or filled with water, the whole boat will be ruined."
"Last time we were at the bottom of the river in Yuzhang, in order to achieve suddenness, our warships all traveled backwards on the bottom of the river for a short period of time. There were more than ten Qianlong warships. It was because they were sailing on the bottom of the river that they hit the underwater rocks. Or maybe it hit the bottom hull of a Jin army warship on the river, and crashed directly at the bottom of the river, and the hundreds of fellow Taoists on board were all buried in the belly of the fish."
"It's like this during the day. It's probably even more dangerous to do this in the dark river at night. Also, we are not familiar with the hydrology in Jiangling and the speed of the water at the bottom of the river. If it cannot be fixed at the bottom of the river, something will happen. If it shifts, or the giant eight-footed warships of our army on the river are not fixed and drift with the water, they may reach the top of our Qianlong warships. Once our warships float up, they may If they collide with their own giant eight-footed ship, it will become a joke to kill each other."
Many of the leaders who were originally smiling now looked solemn and no longer had the smiles they had just now. The black robe nodded, looked at Zhu Chaoshi, and said in a deep voice: "General Zhu, since even Commander Yao of the Qianlong Fleet has If it doesn’t feel appropriate, I think it’s better to find another way.”
Fan Wubing also said: "Yes, our navy already has a great advantage. There is no need to use such radical tactics. In the dark night, even if we can successfully rise to the surface, we can't distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. It will be difficult to fight again." Repeat the victory in Yuzhang."
Yao Qichen sighed: "We have been preparing for that time in Yuzhang for more than a year. We have measured and reconnoitred the water flow in the Sangluozhou area many times. At the bottom of the river, there is a large sandbar in the center, so the flow speed has been slowed down so as not to The lurking fleet was washed away. As for the Qianlong warships, they were secretly built in the Nankang and Yuzhang areas. They were quietly launched into the water in batches within more than a month and fixed at the bottom of the river. Some brothers were just like this on the river. After staying in the bottom for more than a month, the hardships and hardships are definitely unbearable for ordinary people. This time in Jiangling, I feel that there are no such conditions, and I ask Junior Brother Zhu to find another way."
Zhu Chaoshi secretly sighed in his heart, this damn Yao Qichen completely rejected his plan. It turned out that he wanted to sink dozens of Qianlong warships at the bottom of the river, and then find a way to change its position so that it would be exactly in those places. Under the eight-boat ship, and then suddenly floated up, it could collide with its own giant ship, thus achieving the effect of winning without fighting and destroying without attacking.
But Yao Qichen analyzed all the pros and cons so clearly. As a result, he might not be able to implement this trick, and he would have to find another way.
Thinking of this, Zhu Chaoshi's heart skipped a beat and he said in a deep voice: "The greater the risk, the greater the reward. If we follow the plan and arrange the fleet across the river, then the Jin army will not dare to attack at all. Only we will act as arrogant soldiers." , so that they feel that they have an opportunity to take advantage of it, so that they can win in one fell swoop. Only by annihilating their fleet can our army have the opportunity to directly attack Jiangling Water City."
Speaking of this, Zhu Chaoshi sneered and said: "Of course, if all the senior brothers just want to bluff and delay time here to create opportunities for Leader Lu and Deputy Leader Xu, then we can completely stand still and just show off here. Leader Lu did not issue an order that we must attack or even capture Jiangling. Although I act as the commander, I cannot restrain your subordinates. It still depends on everyone’s wishes. If you don’t want to make achievements, you don’t have to do this. .”
Yingjiu's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Junior brother Zhu, what are you talking about? As a general, how can you not want to make meritorious deeds? How can you sit in a large army, but have to watch Master and the others fight for their lives while doing nothing yourself? ? If there is a chance, we will definitely want to capture Jiangling City."
Fan Wubing also sneered: "We have been fighting with the Beifu Army for many years, and countless comrades have died at the hands of these government lackeys. It is Liu Daogui and Tan Daoji. Their hands are stained with the blood of many of our fellow Taoists, and their helmets and tassels , dyed red with the blood of the brothers from the Divine Cult. This time there is a great opportunity for revenge, how can we let it go? Junior Brother Yao just said that the Qianlong battleship is not suitable for use at night this time, but he did not say that there will be no water battles. , don’t get me wrong. Let’s think about other methods and tactics.”
