Originally, the Southern Song Dynasty had only more than 20,000 grenade launchers, and the battle in Guangxi consumed a lot. Now, it is indeed almost empty.

The shortcomings of the weak national strength of the Song Dynasty were finally reflected at this time.

If it were the Yuan Dynasty, with the number of their weapons workshops, there would never be such a shortage of artillery shells.

"well!"

Zhang Jue sighed heavily, but he was helpless.

The two could only watch the Yuan army warships leave.

If there were enough grenade launchers, it would be no problem to take advantage of the Yuan naval warships to retreat and then blow up more than a dozen of their ships.

The Yuan army naval warship retreated very quickly, and at this time, the cannon chariot was no longer reachable.

Ren Wei led the Flying Army in the air and kept chasing the Yuan army, but the destructive power of the sky-blasting thunder to sea warships was limited.

When they chased Xu Yuan out, all the thunders on the hot air balloon were thrown away, and they only sank more than 20 naval warships of the Yuan army.

Throwing thunder from a height of hundreds of meters is really unsightly.

But Ren Wei was already satisfied with this. After the thunder of the sky was used up, he smiled and took the soldiers back to the beach.

Below, Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng sat next to the cabin window, looking up at the hot air balloon flying away, with a look of lingering fear on their faces.

Their ship was lucky and was not bombed by the sky-blasting thunder, but it was inevitable that a few thunder would fall next to them.

Zhang Hongfan said: "Brother, the Song army's flying army is really hard to deal with! If we fly in the sky, we can't even reach it."

"yes……"

Li Heng seemed to have a deep feeling on his chubby face, "But where are these fresh things from the Song Dynasty easy to deal with?"

He rubbed his fingers and closed his eyes slightly.

Zhang Hongfan looked at his expression and said in surprise: "Does my brother have any idea in his heart?"

He was familiar with Li Heng's habits. In the past, when Li Heng had any ideas, he often used this expression.

Li Heng opened his eyes and said, "If the military strategy is not surprising, if it is not surprising, then the military strategy cannot be achieved, then the military will be used. Brother Hongfan, although we can use our current military strength to defeat Hikang, we will definitely lose troops and lose generals. At that time, Zhao Jing will lead the troops back, and we may not be able to stop it. In my opinion, if we want to defeat Hikang, we still need to use tricks..."

Zhang Hongfan waved his hand and interrupted him directly, and smiled and said, "My brother said your idea directly."

Li Heng also smiled, "The Song army soldiers are at most tens of thousands, but my brothers have more than 100,000 soldiers, but they can be divided into two groups. Brother, you lead the warships to continue attacking the beach from the sea, and I will lead the army from Suixi Port to the inner sea of ​​Leizhou. The infantry came ashore and sneaked into Haikang. At that time, the Song army will definitely not be able to look after each other. Even if they noticed our intentions, they would be powerless and at most they could only withdraw from Haikang to the garrison. Our army has landed, and then we will use gunboats to continue to bombard Haikang's city walls. Can Haikang County still defend it?"

Zhang Hongfan's eyes were slightly bright, but then he pondered again, "Brother Yu is just worried that Zhao Jing has led the soldiers back to Haikang."

Li Heng said: "Even if the Emperor Song has led his army back to Haikang and our army is divided into two groups to attack, he will not be able to continue hiding the army in Haikang County, right? If the Song army really has a large army out of the city, we will retreat first and then discuss it."

Zhang Hongfan thought about it again and finally nodded, "Okay, then I will follow my brother's method."

He has no better way in his mind now.

Afterwards, the two remained silent.

The Yuan army naval warships headed northeast at an extremely fast speed, and eventually stopped on the East China Island on the west side of Leizhou.

Many soldiers carried military supplies off the ship and began to set up camp on the island.

Not long after, the fragrance of rice vaguely floated on the island.

Fortunately, the people on the East China Island had migrated to Leizhou at this time, otherwise they would have been disturbed by these Yuan troops.

On the beach east of Haikang County, Zhang Jue led his soldiers to hurry to clean the battlefield and rushed back to the camp to rest.

Both sides are working hard to get enough rest time. Because everyone understands that the war will not end like this.

The red clouds in the sky suddenly caught my eye.

Then, time soon reached night.

The red glow faded away and night fell. The wind on the sea gradually became violent.

The sea waves slapped the reefs and made a rumbling sound. The sea at night was deeper, making people feel timid.

And under such circumstances, Zhang Hongfan led more than 200 naval warships to the coast of Haikang County while the night was in the dark.

In just a few dozen minutes later, Li Heng led nearly 200 warships, a total of about 50,000 soldiers, to the inland sea of ​​Leizhou.

Several miles behind the Leizhou coast, the Song army camp was silent, with only the brazier swaying.

After Zhao Dongting took office, he spent most of his time leading the army to fight and he was very particular about the army. Now the appearance of the Song army is far from comparable before.

Each guard stood with his chest raised and his head raised, so he could not look straight.

After about two hours, several fast horses rushed to the front of the camp and shouted before they even got off the horse: "There is an emergency military report!"

After saying that, several fast horses were approaching, and the horse knight quickly turned over and dismounted.

The soldiers guarding the camp gate hurriedly led a few people to the barracks.

Zhang Jue was woken up in his sleep.

The soldier knelt outside and reported: "Military orders, the Yuan army has more than 200 naval warships, only more than ten miles away from the beach."

Zhang Jue's voice came from the camp, a little solemn, "Beat the drum and gather troops, prepare to fight!"

There was a deafening drum sound in the Song army's barracks, and many soldiers ran out of the tents one after another, and then they gathered into small teams and ran outside the barracks.

In just about twenty minutes, nearly 30,000 Song troops gathered outside the military camp.

Zhang Jue did not make any pre-war mobilization, but just led the army directly to the beach and set up defense lines.

Firearms such as thunderbolts, gunboats, grenade launchers, etc. were soon arranged along the beach.

However, there were not many shells left in the Flying Dragon Army, only more than a hundred boxes left, piled up in the jungle behind the military formation, a little lonely.

Just after the Song army set up a defense line, Zhang Hongfan led the Yuan army to the near sea, only a kilometer away from the beach.

Zhang Jue raised his hand slightly, ready to order the soldiers to set off fireworks at any time. But at this time, all the naval warships of the Yuan army suddenly stopped.

The Yuan soldiers on the ship threw all the anchors made of steel into the sea water. The sails were also put down.

More than 200 naval warships of the Yuan army stood quietly on the sea.

The rolling waves hit the boat, making a rustling sound, but the huge sea warship just didn't move at all.
