In the camp, the soldiers of Qi who had finished their training picked up their rice bowls and ate deeply, drinking broth.

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty who were monitoring the Qi army were extremely angry when they saw the rice, bran and a salty dried radish in their bowls.

"Damn it! Why do they eat meat and we eat chaff!" A soldier threw the bowl away, feeling extremely unbalanced.

"Yes! They are all working for the imperial court. Why do Shangguan treat them so well but don't treat us as human beings?"

"It's not because they eat like this in the north. Shangguan was worried that he wouldn't be able to retain people if they were poorly fed, so he gave them preferential treatment. As for us..."

While the soldiers of Song Dynasty were complaining, Xia Gui led a group of officers to the camp. When the soldiers of Song Dynasty saw Shangguan, they immediately stopped talking.

At this time, Xia Gui came to Lu Wenhuan's military tent. Lu Wenhuan quickly stood up and asked, "Why did Xia Tongzhi come here?"

Xia Gui glanced at the people in the military tent, and Lu Wenhuan understood, "You guys go out first!"

Xia Gui waited until Lu Wenhuan was left in the tent, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Commander Lu. You have ordered the Prime Minister to be appointed. Starting today, your troops will resume naval training and wait for the Prime Minister's order to attack!"

Lu Wenhuan asked: "Has the decision been made about the establishment of the Prime Minister?"

Xia Gui nodded, "The King of Linyi has organized a naval force that poses a threat to the imperial court. Prime Minister Zhizhi has decided to completely destroy the Qi army's navy! In the past few days, you have reacquainted yourself with the warships and prepared to attack Lianshui!"

Lu Wenhuan clasped his fists and said, "Under Xia Tongzhi, the Qi army's water fortress is quite tall and strong. Small boats cannot rush in. Please give me some big boats!"

Xia Guidao: "You are familiar with the situation in Lianshui. Draw a picture for me. I will report the matter of the ship to Mr. Zhizhi!"

"That's it, thank you!" Lu Wenhuan said, cupping his fists.

Xia Gui nodded and immediately led his subordinates out. The general couldn't help but smile and said: "Commanders, we can be considered as separated from this group of people. The soldiers below see them eating and drinking every day, and they are already quite dissatisfied with us.

, If you continue to stay, you will have to leave Xiaoying." Ying

Xia Gui sneered, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhizhi must set an example now and attract the North Coast Navy to surrender. Once the North Coast Navy is destroyed, they will be useless. Then we will deal with them!"

After recruiting more than 5,000 Qi troops, Shi Zhaizhi believed that Zhao Tai's navy had become an empty shell.

However, as long as the Lianshui water fortress remains and Zhao Tai still has ships, the Qi army can recruit men and rebuild the navy.

The navy was an advantage that the Song Army must master. Shi Zhaizhi decided to take advantage of the Qi army's disabled navy to seize all the Qi army's warships in one fell swoop, completely ruining Zhao Tai's efforts to build a navy.

If Zhao Tai rebelled early because he seized the ship, he would first guard the Huaihe River, then mobilize the elite soldiers of the Song Dynasty to take the opportunity to destroy Zhao Tai.

If Zhao Tai swallowed his anger, he would press forward step by step and encroach on Shandong step by step until Zhao Tai couldn't bear it anymore and forced him to launch a rebellion.

After making up his mind, Shi Zhaizhi immediately formed his troops and overwhelmed the 200,000 Huai army on the front line of the Huai River.

On the eighth day of April, after the Song Army completed its deployment, Shi Zhaizhi came to the Song Army's water village.

At dusk, in the water stronghold, nearly 30,000 Song troops boarded warships and waited for military orders.

Shi Zhaizhi stood on the water stronghold, and Xia Gui walked up to him and said, "My lord, the soldiers are ready!"

Shi Zhaizhi looked at the powerful Song Dynasty navy in front of him, and his heart was filled with passion, "Okay! Let's set off immediately after dark!"

As night fell, warships loaded with Song soldiers sailed out of the water village one after another and quietly approached the north bank.

Thirty thousand Song troops were divided into multiple groups and would take advantage of the Qi army's unpreparedness to seize all the ships on the north bank.

At this time, the ship was sailing on the river. Xia Gui stood on the bow of the ship, staring at the river. The general beside him smiled and said: "Commander, the navy on the north bank has become an empty shell. It is estimated that no ships will be sent to patrol." Ying

Xia Gui nodded slightly and asked, "Is there anything going on with Lu Wenhuan?"

The general said: "Those guys have average boating skills and fall behind in the back row. However, they have low-ranking officers and soldiers on their boats, so there is nothing unusual about them."

The navy of the Qi army was not as good as that of the Song army, and their ship maneuvering skills were average, so it was reasonable to lag behind.

"Very good! Let them follow behind." Xia Gui sneered, "Our Song Dynasty is still more powerful in naval forces. When we get close to the water village on the north bank, we can take advantage of the Qi army's unpreparedness and rush in directly, and then seize the Qi army's warships."

The general said excitedly: "Yes! This reward cannot fall into the hands of Lu Wenhuan."

There are now more than a thousand sailors left on the north bank, and Xia Gui is not worried about any accidents.

Because the Song army had an absolute advantage on the Huaihe River, even if the sneak attack failed, he could destroy the Qi army's water stronghold by force. Ying Ying

At this time, the fleet continued sailing, and an extremely large navy camp appeared in front of it.

Seeing this, Xia Gui pulled out his sword and pointed forward, "Hang up the lantern and rush in!"

He gave an order and hung up the red light on the boat. The warships of the Song Army immediately raised their sails and rowed their oars and rushed directly to the water village.

The warships of the Song Army rushed forward, and the distance between them and the warships of the Qi Army was further extended.

Lu Wenhuan was sitting on the boat, and a Song Army commander came behind him and said, "General, the commander has issued an order!"

】

Shi Zhaizhi asked Lu Wenhuan to form an army and equip Lu Wenhuan with warships. However, in order to control this Qi army, he assigned a large number of Song generals to Lu Wenhuan's army.

At this time, Lu Wenhuan turned around, held the sword in one hand, and looked at the head of the Song army with a smile on his face. The soldiers gathered on the deck, and then walked behind the Song army soldiers without leaving a trace. Ying Ying

Lu Wenhuan stood at a high place and had a panoramic view of the situation on the deck. When he saw his subordinates getting ready, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Don't do anything yet!"

After giving the order, Nadu's head was directly knocked down by two members of the Qi army. The Qi soldiers on the deck also controlled the Song army soldiers one after another.

Ma Degong saw the scene in front of him and immediately realized that something was wrong. He quickly retreated and was about to run to the side of the ship and jump off the ship, but was stopped by his subordinates.

"Capture the bird without restraint!" Qi's soldiers shouted.

The horse was so horrified that he quickly drew his sword and tried to resist, but a flying kick came from behind and knocked him down.

The Qi soldiers immediately swarmed him and tied him up.

"Straight bitches, how dare you betray me!" Ma Degong struggled and cursed.

Sergeant Qi suddenly became angry and punched and kicked him, "Fuck you, you've made me eat chaff for half a month, brothers, beat him."

On each Qi army warship, the Qi soldiers suddenly went into chaos and controlled the Song troops who had been inserted by Shi Zhaizhi one by one.

The fighting in the rear fleet did not attract the attention of the Song army in the front. The sound of the fighting on the ship had been covered up by the exclamations of the Qi army in the front, the cheers of the Song army, and the sound of the big ships crashing into the water stronghold.

At this time, Lu Wenhuan looked to the north and heard the alarm bells of the Qi Army's water camp. The huge Song Army warships had already smashed open the water gate and rushed into the Qi Army's water camp.
