Zhu Chaoshi nodded with satisfaction, turned to look at the four bowmen, and said solemnly: "In this battle, I will also be with you, stay on the Tianshi, and fight together. Don't say that I put everyone in danger.
, but I left in order to save my life. Like everyone else, I have no choice but to advance and fight for my life."
Xia Yiqi's expression changed slightly: "Commander, don't be like this. It's enough to have us here. If you want to command the overall situation, you don't have to..."
Zhu Chaoshi waved his hand: "Yes, because I want to command the overall situation, I have to command from the highest place on the battlefield with the best view. I am asked to command on a small boat in the dark, without even knowing what is happening outside.
How can we command the entire army?"
Lin Zihao frowned slightly: "It's just that you are the commander-in-chief of the entire army after all, and the Tianshi will probably become the target of concentrated attacks by the enemy. If you are attacked, there is no way to give an order."
Zhu Chaoshi smiled slightly: "In the dark night, it is impossible for the enemy to tell which ship we are. They can only see four giant ships in the distance. However, what you said makes sense. At the current location, our Tianshi
It's in the middle. They should be observing us at this time. I'm afraid, now that we are having a meeting here, they will see it clearly."
Xia Yiqi shook his head in disbelief: "That's not true. This place is more than three miles away from the river bank of Jiangling City. Can they really see our every move here?"
Zhu Chaoshi shook his head: "Well, since we beat the drums and whistles and summoned the captains to come to the military meeting, we should have been targeted by them. And if they really came to attack our giant ship tonight, then they would definitely
The first one to bear the brunt is this Tianshi number."
Xia Yiqi gritted his teeth: "What should we do, Marshal Zhu, do you want to consider temporarily changing the flagship?"
Zhu Chaoshi smiled slightly: "When I was in the Beifu Army, I fought against Huan Chu during the Western Expedition. He Danzhi, the general of the Chu Army at that time, played a trick. He deliberately broke out his ship in front of the entire army's fleet, and even
He deliberately raised the flag, but he ran to another ship, trying to lure the Jin army to attack his ship, and then he commanded other ships to encircle and annihilate the Jin army in one fell swoop."
Ying Mingzhi couldn't help but said: "We all know this battle example. In the end, you took advantage of the trick and directly attacked the ship in front of you. You boarded the ship as quickly as possible and captured it. Then you chopped down the commander's flag and shouted everywhere what it was.
Danzhi has been captured, and they even found someone to pretend to be He Danzhi and stand on the bow of the ship for all the Chu troops to see."
Lin Zihao smiled and said: "Yes, this is a fake. The soldiers of the Chu army did not know where He Danzhi was. When they saw that the ship was captured and the commander's flag fell, the morale of the army collapsed and they dispersed in a rush. Even He Danzhi
He even raised the flag on his new ship and even stood at the mast and shouted that he was still commanding, but no one paid attention. This is a painful lesson in self-defeation. Marshal Zhu, you don’t want to follow He Danzhi’s example of changing seats.
Ship, you should think twice about this."
Zhu Chaoshi nodded: "Senior Brother Lin's words are very correct, but you have overlooked one point, that is, He Danzhi's mistake was not in changing the ship, but in placing the ship at the front of the entire military fleet. There was no
Without any protection, the small warships of the Jin army relied on their unafraid of death and rushed downwind. They rushed directly onto the big ship and quickly captured it. The other warships of the Chu army had no time to outflank them according to the original plan.
Taking over the big ship was He Danzhi's biggest mistake. Even if it was a bait, he couldn't do it so obviously. At least, he had to make the enemy pay a heavy price when attacking with all his strength. At least, he had to outflank himself.
And annihilate all opponents, leaving enough time."
Huang Bozi said thoughtfully: "Yes, in this kind of thing, the only thing you have to do is fight at a certain speed. Once the speed slows down, it will be doomed. What if Danzhi puts his ship in the formation, or there is someone around him?
If there were twenty or thirty warships guarding us, it wouldn't be like this."
Ying Mingzhi shook his head: "If this is really the case, then the Jin army is not stupid. I am afraid they will not attack with all their strength like this, but will find another way."
Zhu Chaoshi nodded: "The art of war is nothing more than knowing the enemy and fighting wits and courage with the opponent. In the Battle of Fankou that year, our army seized the enemy's flaws and broke them in one fell swoop. But if the enemy had no flaws,
We will find a way to march from land, attack the water stronghold, force them to take the initiative to counterattack our army from the water, and then lure the enemy into our preset location to ambush. This is the plan to attack the enemy and lure the enemy to fight."
"As for this time, we still need to grasp the enemy's movements. Liu Daogui is a famous general. He will never let the Huanglong warship sit in the water fortress at this time. They did not move yesterday. They were probably loading and preparing. Tonight at the latest
, there will definitely be some action, either to directly attack our giant ship, or to break through with all our strength. As for whether it will be in the direction of Wuling, in the direction of Matoudu, or in a scattered way, we don't know."
"Senior Brother Lin will take the escort fleet and take the initiative to set up an ambush in the west, preparing to ambush their fleet fleeing to the west. After all, there are also Senior Brother Yingjiu and Senior Brother Fan Wubing in the direction of Ma Tou Ferry and Wulin Ferry.
Fleet, if they really go there, we can join forces with them to intercept them, but in the west, we have to ambush ourselves in advance."
Lin Zihao nodded: "That's no problem. According to the original plan, I should have set off by now. But in this way, there will not be many escort fleets of giant ships here. If I were Liu Daogui, I would probably take advantage of this great opportunity.
, directly attack the giant ship at night, so it is still too dangerous here, and you cannot place all your hopes on our return support."
Zhu Chaoshi smiled slightly: "Fighting in the dark will only be more detrimental to the Jin army. Their ship-managing skills are not as good as ours. If they fight blindly without turning on the lights, I'm afraid they will be smashed into a ball. When the time comes, as long as they click on
When the fire breaks out, our giant ships can attack from a distance at the bright spot, killing them to the maximum extent. Even if they cannot be wiped out, they can still survive until you come to help, not to mention..."
At this point, he curled up his lips: "Don't forget, everyone, there are still our Qianlong battleships lurking under the water. If necessary, let them all surface to fight, and they can also defeat the enemy!"
Xia Yiqi laughed loudly and said: "Everything is under Marshal Zhu's control. I admire him very much."
Zhu Chaoshi nodded: "However, your opinions are reasonable and have inspired me. In the dark night, the enemy cannot tell the direction, so they probably need to determine the target of attack in advance, which is our Tianshi. Therefore,
We are also going to use a trick. Brother Xia, please resist here with all your strength. I will move the command ship to the Kuaiji and direct the battle there. Brother Ying, do you dare to take on the most dangerous and arduous battle on the Tianshi?
