Qi Yu raised his eyes and looked out, only to see a group of warships approaching on the sea. They looked mighty and mighty.
Judging from the momentum, it seems to have some faint murderous intent.
Huh?
What kind of army is this?
Could it be... the reserve army left by Anant?
wrong! Quite wrong!
According to the reliable information obtained, Annan State's expedition this time was to go out in full force without sparing any effort. If so, how did he get any reserve army?
But if it wasn't the Annan Army, who would it be?
Most importantly, are they friends or foes? What do you want to do here?
Soon, those fleets made their position clear to Lord Qi with a few actual shellings.
It turns out to be the enemy!
Qi Yu was shocked when he heard the sound and hurriedly said: "Send the order to the navy! Defend the enemy!"
"yes!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Three firework-like flares shot into the sky and crackled several times.
This is an instruction to defend the enemy vigorously.
After receiving the order, the Qiongzhou navy moved swiftly, turning the bow of the ship as quickly as possible, then lined up left and right, swept the formation, and made a posture of being ready to meet the enemy.
Looking at the approaching fleets, they gradually become clearer in the field of view of the telescope from far to near at the merging line of sea and sky.
At this time, Qi Yu finally saw the clues and basically determined the identity of the visitor.
Just the flag with the word 'Min' fluttering in the wind says it all.
what's the situation?
Could it be that there is a rebellion in Fujian?
But soon, a sentry sent the real information.
It is said that the people coming are the coalition forces formed by Gao Ming and Yue Sixian. Their intention seems to be to seize control of Qiongzhou. As for military strength, there are more than fifty miscellaneous ships, and more than 2,000 rebel army troops and their supporting forces. Their strength cannot be underestimated.
What? There are so many people?
Hearing this, Qi Yu couldn't help but be a little shocked...
This time against Annan, our side barely gained the upper hand by virtue of its superiority in weapons. In terms of the number of people participating in the battle, the opponent was obviously much higher.
In other words, once a close hand-to-hand combat occurs or encounters, the Qiong Army cannot win.
However, the sudden surrender of the Fujian Army increased this possibility. As long as one is not careful, the boat may capsize in the gutter.
However, for Annan, it was a fateful moment, which rekindled the extinguished fire of hope.
As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend!
In this case, why not join forces with the Fujian army to fight against Qiong?
Almost at the same time, all parties assessed the situation and figured out the current situation, and then divided friends and foes.
In fact, Gao Ming and Yue Sixian were also quite surprised.
According to their original plan, they immediately blew the horn for landing on the beach as soon as they approached Qiongzhou. Then, use your own absolute advantage to eat Qiong's army alive. However, I never thought that Annan Kingdom would actually be here to cause trouble.
Regardless of his motives, this opportunity alone is a huge ape dung that can only be encountered but cannot be sought.
Thinking of this, not only Gao and Yue, but also the leader of Annan who understood the situation couldn't help laughing.
Some are happy and some are sad.
Qi Yu's army was stunned by this sudden change.
Yes, who wouldn’t be worried when faced with two enemy armies that are several times our own? Who is not afraid?
It's useless to think too much, just think about how to defeat the enemy!
Qi Yu looked calm on the surface, but his heart was pounding, and he seemed a little worried about gains and losses, and he was undecided.
Which tactic is more targeted?
At this moment, Haitao, whose shirt was stained with blood, hurried over and said: "Master Qi, the Fujian army is so powerful that they must not be allowed to land successfully. If they join forces and attack together, we will definitely not be able to defend it." Stay on this line of defense.”
"Indeed!" Qi Yu nodded, and then asked casually: "Do you have any good way to break this situation?"
Haitao thought for a while and suggested: "In the opinion of my subordinates, we can have our naval forces take the initiative to fight, and use this to delay the Fujian army's landing. At the same time, send another sharp force to conduct a surprise attack. In order to seize actual control of the Annan ships and make them available to me. If we can control these ships, it will be like having a powerful barrier to attack the Annan army that has landed and to repel the Fujian thieves on the water. , it can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.”
Seize the ship and use it for me?
Well, this is indeed a very good method, and it can immediately improve combat effectiveness.
but!
This plan has extremely high requirements for generals. They must be amphibious and comprehensive. He can not only launch land assaults to seize ships, but also know how to use water warfare to command the captured enemy warships.
Alas, where can we find such talents at this time?
If only my daughter were here!
Qi Yu sighed, and then said solemnly: "Now that things have happened, it seems that I am the only one who leads the troops in person! Come here, prepare a horse for me..."
"Wait a minute!" Haitao suddenly stopped and said: "In such a small battle, why does the veteran need to take action? Master Qi, please call me three hundred soldiers, and I will completely capture the Annan ship within the time of a stick of incense. actual control."
"You?? This..." Qi Yu frowned, appearing a little hesitant.
As for Haitao's land combat ability, everyone has seen it before. He is as sharp as the experienced Gao Zhongde. However, his water fighting ability is still unknown. What if he allows it rashly and makes a miscalculation?
Seeing Qi Yu's hesitation, Haitao quickly clasped his fists and begged again: "Sir Qi, I would like to issue a military order! If you fail to fulfill this duty, you will be willing to be punished by military law."
Dare to issue a military order?
Confident enough!
"Then...okay!" Qi Yu gritted his teeth and reluctantly agreed.
Haitao was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly bowed and said: "Thank you for your trust, sir!"
Is Qi Dalang gambling?
Objectively speaking, there is indeed such an ingredient.
You should know that his character is cautious, pursuing appropriateness in everything, and rarely acts rashly. However, the current situation does not allow for much thinking, and a decisive decision must be made.
It's okay to take some risks.
However, this Haitao's land combat ability is very good. It seems that he has received careful guidance from an expert. If this is the case, his naval combat ability should not be too bad.
That said, this newcomer is well worth enabling.
In this way, with Qi Yu's advice and encouragement, Haitao left happily.
Let’s talk about the current Annan Army. After analyzing the pros and cons of the situation, they also adjusted their tactics accordingly.
Its deployment also seeks to control the ships on the shore.
Previously, because they were too afraid of the shotgun attacks by the Qiong Navy, they chose to stay away from the shore. Now, the sudden arrival of the Fujian Army has successfully held back the surface ships of the Qiong Army. Why not take advantage of this good opportunity?
Due to the shift in strategic focus, the resistance to Haitao's ship-seizing operation suddenly increased.
Qi Yu stared at it for a while, and then immediately ordered to his subordinates: "Intensify the firepower to provide cover for Haitao and the others!"
"yes!"
