At this point, Er Mazi suddenly thought of something and said sternly: "However, I would like to remind you that if a giant ship rushes to the battlefield, master had better leave some battle results to Zhu. For this reason, you You know, compared to how many enemy ships were destroyed this time, being able to have a good relationship with Zhu Chaoshi and becoming his right-hand man in the future is probably more important."
Lin Zihao nodded: "Master, of course, you know better. Just keep a good watch on this place. I'll come as soon as I go!"
At this point, his face darkened, and a murderous aura emerged in his eyes. He waved the machete in his hand and said sternly: "You bastards, it's time to work. Are the guys in your hands ready? Where is your murderous intention?"
On the entire warship, more than a hundred Celestial Masters and Taoists who had already prepared for battle waved their swords, long swords, and water-splitting thorns. The archers raised their long bows and crossbows high and shouted loudly: "Kill people, steal food, and steal weapons!"
Lin Zihao slapped a copper basin filled with black ink powder and oil paint in front of him. When it arrived, his hands were covered with black paint, and he made several deep scratches on his face. Just now His face, which was still fair and rosy, suddenly became darker than Bao Qingtian. If it weren't for the color of his hands, which were still yellow, people would really believe that this was a person from Africa, or from the Sahara. to the south.
After applying the black oil, Lin Zihao jumped off the platform with a knife and ran to the side of the ship. The four fast boats were already ready. Lin Zihao made a double jump and landed firmly in the boat. , on the Jiangning ship behind him, on the sides of the ship, there were people like Lin Zihao, with their faces painted black, dressed in smart clothes, or even with their bare upper bodies covered in white tendons. The gangsters, who were plunged into darkness, jumped off the assault boats that were leaning against the side of the ship. The crew members who stayed on the Jiangning waved their weapons and saluted them, "Yuan Tianshi bestowed x The voices of "brother (brother) have strength" kept coming and going.
In the midst of such a sound, Lin Zihao cut off the cable connecting the boat to the Jiangning with one stroke. More than a dozen oarsmen behind him began to shout chants and started rowing at a uniform speed. The sail operator personally held the mast of the ship, which was more than ten feet high, and adjusted the position of the sail according to the wind direction at any time. This small boat, like a fierce horse on the grassland, began to move slowly, and then became more and more powerful. Quickly, getting more and more urgent, running smoothly with the wind and water, towards the battlefield outside Li Yu, where there was a sea of fire and the sound of killing.
Corresponding to the boat Lin Zihao was on, there were dozens or hundreds of boats, and some were low, fishing boats converted from dinghy boats. Like the hundreds of water snakes scattered all over the river, they rushed towards the river with black tracks. On the battlefield on the river, the monster thieves and sailors who remained on the more than fifty warships on the river cheered in unison. The sound waves became louder and louder, almost covering up the sounds of the battlefield ahead.
Er Mazi bowed deeply in the direction where Lin Zihao and the others were leaving. When he stood up, there were only more than fifty warships left at anchor in his area, and the Jiangning The tall three-decker figure stood out among these warships. He raised his head and looked at the tall mast behind him, holding the top of the mast while observing the surroundings. He said in a deep voice: "Liu Duoyu and Wang Baitiao showed me their tricks. If there was a fire anywhere, they would report it to me right away. If they were half a moment late and missed the military situation, I gouged out your eyes!"
On the other side, on the more than 50 Huanglong fleets that broke through the encirclement, Tan Daoji was wearing leather armor and short clothes on a Huanglong warship that was not very eye-catching and did not hang the general's flag in the rear army, holding a large card in his hand. Bow, standing on the back deck, more than ten shields, covered with wet cowhide, hung on the side of the ship. If you look carefully, almost all the sides of the ship are treated like this. Where there is no large shield to protect, It was smeared with thick wet mud. Obviously, this fleet has achieved perfection in terms of preventing fire attacks and collisions.
On the sides of the ship on both sides, dozens of lightly-armed sergeants and civilians were running around in a hurry. They were all barefoot and without shoes. They walked on the slippery deck as if they were on the ground. From their mouths, Chu Yan knew that these were the original soldiers of the Chu army's navy. They were concentrated on the second and third decks with the rest. They were wearing leather armor and holding sharp blades. They were all covered with black cloth to hide their sharp edges and murderous intent. Compared with the elite soldiers of Beifu, they are completely different, but now everyone is in the same boat, and everyone's eyes are shining with the desire to fight.
The sounds of "plop" and "plop" were heard endlessly, and one sack after another was thrown into the river. Tan Daoji looked calm, while Fu Hongzhi, who was also dressed on the side, smiled and said: "Brother Daoji, you said we are Aren't the sacks filled with stones too exaggerated? They all sank directly to the bottom of the river. Aren't the demon thieves surprised that with so many bags, none of them can float?"
Tan Daoji smiled slightly: "If it were at night, it would not be so easy to see. Besides, it is impossible for them to send people into the water to retrieve those sacks at this time. You see, the enemy is behind Meihuizhou, and the ambush fleet has already come towards us. There are sixty or seventy warships coming, and they are going very fast."
Fu Hongzhi nodded and said sternly: "The demon thieves' boat-managing skills are really not to be boasted. They are indeed fast and ruthless, just like driving a powerful horse on the grassland. I rarely fought against them in the past, but when I saw them today, I realized Why did General Zhennan lose to them?"
Tan Daoji's eyes flashed with a fierce look: "The demon thieves have not all attacked, but there is still room. You see, their ambush fleet is divided into three groups, half of which attacks our retreating fleet, and one third of which attacks our retreating fleet. As we come, there are still more than fifty ships left in place. Hmm, there is still some backup. The enemy general is greedy enough. He wants to rely on these small and medium-sized warships to eat up all our Huanglong fleet in a single battle. It's too So arrogant.”
Fu Hongzhi nodded and saw the dozens of Tianshi Dao warships chasing him from the side and rear. Wu Yu's curses and war roars, as well as the sound of weapons striking, could be heard continuously. They were getting closer and closer. Originally, There was still a distance of more than two miles. As the two talked, it was already only a few miles away, and it was getting closer. However, as the Huanglong warship threw away more and more stone sacks, the speed became faster and faster. The distance between the two fleets is getting smaller and smaller. Until the distance of more than 300 meters, it was impossible to go any further. The more this happened, the more urgent the Wu Yu yells and curses from behind became.
