On the Naniwa, the muscles on Li Yifan's face were beating violently. From his violently shrinking boy's hole, he could clearly see the burning flames in front of him, as well as the Tianshi Dao disciples who kept falling into the water. Of course, it also included the Mongolian conflict ships that were hit from the side by the Huanglong warships, fell apart, and sank rapidly. He was muttering to himself: "How could this happen? How could this happen?!"
Zhao Kelun's voice finally brought Li Yifan back to reality. He turned to look at Zhao Kelun, who was kneeling in front of him. His body was covered in blood. There were several sword wounds. At this moment, the cloth strips that temporarily wrapped his wounds were still visible. , soaked with blood blisters, Zhao Kelun gritted his teeth and almost cried: "Master, it's over, it's over, we've fallen into a trap, the Jin army didn't run away at all, they set up an ambush to destroy us."
Li Yifan suddenly reacted, took a step forward, grabbed Zhao Kelun's collar from the ground, and lifted the disciple up directly. The tip of his nose also bumped into the tip of Zhao Kelun's nose, and he stared at Zhao Kelun's fearful eyes fiercely. Eyes full: "Where is your assault ship? Where are your men?!"
Zhao Kelun's eyes were filled with tears and he shook his head in pain: "It's over, it's all over. Almost all of my men were killed in the battle, and almost all of my warships were either sunk or captured. Now the assault ships that can still fight in front have been There are less than ten, I, I myself only managed to escape by grabbing a small boat, that is, I just want to report to you, master, please make a decision and leave the battlefield as soon as possible."
Li Yifan roared, threw Zhao Kelun to the ground viciously, picked up the harpoon, pointed it at Zhao Kelun, and said sternly: "Your ship has sunk, all your men are dead, why are you still alive? I took all the I gave all the warships to you just to hear you tell me to evacuate early?"
Zhao Kelun cried: "Master, this is not my fault. This is the enemy's conspiracy. Don't blame me. Even you, the old man, didn't see it. I'm not afraid of death. I killed at least ten enemy soldiers with my own hands. My whole body is wounded, but as the commander of the front line, I have to convey to you the situation of the battle ahead. Now, I have told you all the battle situations. It is up to you to decide whether to fight or withdraw. I want to go back to accompany my brothers. "
As he spoke, he struggled to get up from the ground, holding a long sword that had been cut out of shape, and wanted to turn around and go back.
Li Yifan sighed, stepped forward and helped Zhao Kelun up, and said: "Kelun, you are right, it was Master who was so angry that he wrongly blamed you. This failure is not your fault, it is mine."
A trace of joy flashed in Zhao Kelun's eyes, but disappeared, and he turned to say: "Now I know that Junior Brother Zhang has the foresight. He has always been worried that this will be a trap, so he has to protect his escape route. I blame him for only thinking about it at that time. Make a meritorious deed and come face to face with him. Master, hurry up and take a look at Junior Brother Zhang behind you. What else is going on?!"
Li Yifan nodded and turned to the top of the mast behind him. Several Tianshi Dao disciples who were flying flags shouted: "Is there any movement behind Zhang Fugui and the Langtang?"
A flag-bearer waved a few flags at the warships in the distance, and fire also appeared on the opposite side. He also saw the flags flying. Without the flag-bearer's translation, Li Yifan could see it clearly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. : "Fortunately, fortunately, everything is normal later on. Fugui is still asking us if we want his help."
Zhao Kelun laughed: "As expected, it was the most correct decision to let Junior Brother Zhang go to the rear. The Jin army would never have thought that we could actually control those seven Huanglong warships for our own use. With these seven ships, plus us With these dilapidated warships, we can still break out and go back to Meihuizhou's main formation, tell Master Lin the situation here and ask him to make preparations in advance. Since these Jin troops ambush us, they are likely to attack us. Kill the other fleets and even the giant ships that are attacking us, and we must not let them be suddenly attacked."
Li Yifan gritted his teeth: "Ke Lun, you are very thoughtful and correct, that's what it is. You have to think about the overall situation, rather than just killing yourself. The sacrifices of the brothers in front are not meaningless. The leader went to sea back then. He told us at the time that those who evacuate temporarily are not cowards. They will eventually become useful and come back to fight. When we were thrown into the sea, it was even worse than now. There were huge waves in front of us, and they left forever behind. My hometown, but even in such a miserable situation, can’t we survive it?”
"We still have a large fleet and giant ships. Even in this battle, there is a chance for a comeback. The losses of the Jin army are not small. When we sacrifice ourselves and consume the enemy's army, next, as long as our own formation Fleets and giant ships are rushing here, we still have a chance to turn defeat into victory, Kelun, don’t be discouraged, follow me and fight out now, as long as you stay alive, everything is possible!”
Zhao Kelun nodded excitedly and said, "Okay, let's light up the smoke for help when we are attacked, send a signal to our formation, and then evacuate."
Li Yifan waved his hand violently and said sternly: "Are you stupid? Are you sending out the smoke at this time because you think the Jin army doesn't know that I am a general's ship?"
Zhao Kelun slapped himself hard, and the bloody saliva at the corner of his mouth drooped again: "Look at my brain, it was really messed up by the war just now. I have even forgotten this, then let's evacuate quietly. Junior Brother Zhang, send another signal."
Li Yifan nodded: "Yes, when we pass that fleet, you go over in a small boat, move Lang Yan to Fugui's Langtang, let him send a signal on Langtang, and then use the seven Huanglong warships to cut off the rear , I will take several other assault ships to go back first to report the news."
Zhao Kelun hesitated for a moment: "Master, do you want to leave first then?"
Li Yifan said fiercely: "Nonsense, I am the general who is chasing the fleet. Of course, I have to report everything here to my master. If it were you and Fugui, you go and report the news, and the master will kill your fleet back." ?"
Zhao Kelun secretly scolded Li Yifan for leaving him to die, but he said: "Yes, everything is at your discretion, let's set off now."
Li Yifan rushed to the wheel rudder on the front deck, pushed back violently, and said sternly: "Weigh the anchor, all the oarsmen row hard for me, we are going to evacuate."
At this point, murderous intent flashed in his eyes: "Let the subordinates fly my general flag and continue to command the battle. Tell all the brothers in front who are still fighting that they will not retreat even half a step in the fight for the religion. Even if the soldiers If you become an immortal, you will definitely be able to enjoy heaven and earth!"
