Chapter 843 Riding the Wind and Waves
"That's not true! It's just that we can't all dispatch, someone must guard Suyun Island, right? If we just leave, someone will occupy this island, wouldn't it be a loss for us?"
"Basically there is no food on the island. How can we lose money? Why don't we learn the style of Xingba this time, kill, burn, and rob them all, and then walk away."
"wait wait wait!"
Gan Ning immediately waved his hands and stopped, saying: "Although this general was born as a bandit, he has never been as cruel as you say. What do we have to do?"
"Oh yes."
Gan Ning suddenly remembered a comment that Night Breeze once said to him: "Although we are thieves, we are thieves with a bottom line of morality. This is called thieves have the right way!"
"You got it, you, you are also a thief!"
"I don't believe it!"
"No!"
"I don't believe it either!"
"Do not believe!"
"Hahaha!"
Immediately, everyone burst into laughter.
Xu Gui wondered why a group of demon gods were still talking and laughing, which completely subverted the three views.
Rest overnight.
Xu Gui helped Zhou Yu improve the map of Dongying Island, and gave a detailed explanation of the distribution of forces on it.
Only now did Zhou Yu have a general understanding of Dongying's situation!
In short, this is a group of uncivilized nations, still in an embarrassing situation where they are united on the surface but separated in reality.
It was actually the same as the end of the Zhou Dynasty. It is precisely because of this that Goddess continues to be a powerful military backer to help her truly unify Dongpu and become the king of Dongpu!
It's just that she thought it was too beautiful.
Not only would Night Breeze not help her, but he would send troops to destroy her.
Himiko couldn't understand the reason, because Zhou Yu and the others didn't know the reason at all, and it was impossible for Night Breeze to tell him the reason.
Early the next morning.
When the army was about to board the ship to fight, Gan Ning was stroking the war horse that he had finally captured, and was reluctantly saying goodbye.
"Brother, although we don't spend many days together, I really don't want to part with you."
"But there is no way, we have to leave, only you and Xiao Hei are left in the future!"
Greek appeal!
The war horse let out a long hiss, as if hearing Gan Ning's words, and lightly touched Gan Ning's forehead with his head.
Xu Gui walked by and asked curiously: "Dare to ask the general, what are you doing? Why don't you get on the boat?"
Gan Ning sighed, "Oh, you don't know how important a war horse is to a general, but it's a pity that I have to leave again."
Xu Gui said softly: "Just take the horse away."
Gan Ning let out a sneer: "If you don't understand, don't pretend to understand. The sea is rough and the horses can't stand it. He can't get on the boat."
Xu Gui smiled indifferently: "General, are those war horses from the mainland? The war horses here are not afraid of water at all. They grew up on the coast since they were young, and they can even swim in the sea, but the swimming time is a little shorter."
Gan Ning was suddenly excited: "This... is this true?"
Xu Gui: "General, why don't you try?"
Gan Ning is bitter!
The police took a look at Xu Gui, couldn't help but immediately led the horse and walked to the battleship.
Don't really say it.
The war horse followed Gan Ning and boarded the battleship without any resistance at all!
Ha ha!
Cool!
More than 700 warships headed towards Saga Island in unison. Battleship rides the wind and waves, advances at full speed!
After driving for about half an hour, soldiers came to report.
"Marshal, there are bandit troops ahead. There are about 400 warships, 56 medium-sized warships, and the rest are small warships. There are no large warships. Request instructions."
The soldier bowed his body and cupped his hands, cupping his fists and speaking.
Zhou Yu unfolded the map of Haicheng and browsed it carefully.
Xu Gui beside him said softly: "Marshal, they should be Susanoo's navy, with more than 400 warships, it should be his entire force!"
snort!
Zhou Yu let out a sneer: "There are more than 400 warships in the district, and they are also fighting with us!"
"Come here!" Zhou Yu greeted.
"Here!" The orderly waited.
Order Xingba and Zhou Tai to lead their respective fleets and surround them from the left and right flanks! Order Sun Ce to lead Ma Zhong, Tan Xiong, Dong Xi, and Zhu Huan to face the bandits head-on!
promise!
After a while, red and green flags flashed on the command ship. Each general led the fleet of the headquarters and set off separately according to the order.
Zhou Yu smiled lightly: "Xu Yiling, what do you think of this battle?"
Xu Gui said softly: "The navy of the Ye Tianwang Empire is strong, and Susano is naturally unmatched!"
A slight smile appeared on the corners of Zhou Yu's lips, and he just glanced at the police lightly, and then continued to look at the river: "Weapons and equipment are one aspect, and strategy and tactics are the key. Our army was first established, and we lack experience in naval warfare. This is our shortcoming."
Xu Gui took a deep breath and bowed solemnly: "Although the marshal is young, he is clearly aware of his own shortcomings, and he can clearly recognize his shortcomings. I admire him very much."
Zhou Yu smiled lightly and remained silent.
The warships galloped and spread out at the fastest speed. Above the sea, on the command ship of the Japanese battleship.
A burly general looked at the river and let out a contemptuous smile: "Hmph! It's not that easy to outflank my fleet left and right. Send the order, and the battleships will extend left and right, expanding the formation!"
Umisachihiko beside him said softly: "Your Excellency is wise, we can only outsmart this battle, and don't go head-to-head with the thief. We don't know exactly what secret weapon the opponent's battleship has."
"Hmm! I'll pay attention."
Susanoo stood by his sword, trying to figure out the strategic intentions of the opponent's coach in his mind, and at the same time reckoned that the obvious military gap between the two sides was at least a little bit!
They don't have large battleships.
Just these dozens of large warships made them extremely greedy and at the same time extremely wary.
Kai Xingyan said softly: "My lord, our careful work yesterday found that Feng Yuji took Xu Gui to Suyun Island. If I guess correctly, these warships should come from the mainland."
"Mainland?" Susanoo frowned.
"It was Great Qin back then, the hometown of Xu Gui's ancestor Xu Fu." Kai Xingyan replied simply.
"I see." Susano nodded silently, "If this is the case, it is very possible, but their navy should be newly built, and they have no experience in naval warfare."
"Yes!" Kaisachihiko affirmed, "This is the only possibility for us to win!"
Night King Navy.
command ship.
deck.
A navy soldier came to report: "Marshal, the Japanese thieves seem to have sensed our intentions, and their warships began to extend to the left and right, asking for instructions."
"Sure enough, very experienced!"
There was no trace of frustration on Zhou Yu's face, but extremely excited.
indeed!
As a navy, this was his first real battle. I have learned naval combat knowledge before, and all of them need to be tested here.
While he was excited, he was also extremely nervous.
