Xia Yiqi's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "Junior brother Ying, don't be too impulsive. Our situation is very bad now. The escort fleet and Qianlong warship fleet in front have all been destroyed, and we are the only one left.
Four lonely giant ships, plus a dozen small and medium-sized warships that were not overwhelmed at once. Most of those dozen ships are still in ruins. I don’t know if they can continue to fight. I don’t even know how many living people are on board. The enemy.
The army has at least nearly thirty Huanglong warships available. In this case, do we still want to attack?"
Ying Mingzhi gritted his teeth and said: "So what? We have more people. One of them can beat his twenty yellow dragon warships, and now they are connected together. We are afraid that he will get into trouble, so we will kill them directly."
At this point, Ying Mingzhi frowned: "Senior Brother Xia, I know your concerns, but think about it, our giant ships are slow in movement. Even if you want to retreat, you can't outrun these Huanglong warships, and as long as you
As soon as we retreat, the enemy will see our fear. Now they are standing still, neither advancing nor retreating. Firstly, they are reorganizing their ships like us, and secondly, they want to see whether we will attack or retreat.
Once we withdraw at this time, they will definitely pounce on us."
Xia Yiqi said solemnly: "Aren't you afraid that if we attack at this time, they will still have ambushes in the water stronghold? Isn't it afraid that they will have a back-up plan to lure us to attack, and then surround and ambush them to eliminate them?
?If Zhu Chaoshi dares to play like this, I'm afraid he has colluded with them a long time ago. This tactic is to lure us into being fooled and destroy our giant ship! Because as long as the giant ship is still there, it is our divine religion that controls the river, not them.
Jin Gou! Even if all small and medium-sized warships are lost this time, hundreds of them can be built in two months. However, if we want to build another eight-footed giant ship, it will take a year or two. We don’t have this time!
"
Ying Mingzhi shook his head: "If Zhu Chaoshi really had any collusion with the Jin army, he wouldn't have been washed away by the big waves just now. He must have found a way to escape by himself. Besides, if the Jin army had any subsequent fleets
The attack has been launched a long time ago. How come there are only these thirty yellow dragon ships in front of us? Senior Brother Xia, the more you want to save the ship, the harder it is to save it. It is dark now, and the four giant ships are together again. If
We just retreated like this. Even if the enemy doesn't attack, I'm afraid we will collide with each other and sink the ship. We all know how difficult it is for this giant ship to turn around. At this time, you want to retreat, so how can you retreat?"
Xia Yiqi's expression changed slightly. It was basic common sense that the ship was too big to turn around, or even turn around. He also knew in his heart that it would be very difficult to retreat directly at this time, but the huge impact just now,
In addition, the power of heaven and earth caused by the impact instantly wiped out thousands of Tianshi Dao disciples and more than a hundred warships. This kind of psychological shock was enough to make him, who has experienced hundreds of battles,
I felt a kind of powerlessness and defeat, just like when I was defeated by Liu Yu without any suspense and no chance to fight back. The feeling of hugging Shujing and wishing to run away as far as possible is exactly the same.
But Xia Yiqi coughed lightly to cover up his inner panic and fear. Ying Mingzhi's words did make sense. At this time, wanting to retreat would be tantamount to suicide. He thought for a while and said: "We can
Neither advance nor retreat, reorganize the equipment on the warship and see the enemy's reaction. Wait until dawn and everything is within sight. We can untie the iron ropes and retreat one by one, and the following ships on the south bank can also
Came to support."
Ying Ming said anxiously: "Brother Xia, please understand the current situation. Now we have lost most of our ships, whether it is the previous pursuit fleet in Meihuizhou, or this time's escort fleet, together with the Qianlong battleship
, it’s all over. There are less than 200 small and medium-sized warships that can still fight, but the enemy’s Huanglong warships have more than 100. We have calculated before that if there are not these four giant warships, just rely on the previous warships.
The more than 300 warships may not be the opponents of the Jin army, not to mention that now we have lost more than half of the small and medium-sized warships. If our four giant warships do nothing here at this time and stand still, the Jin dogs will definitely defeat them one by one.
, first destroy our remaining small and medium-sized warships, and then besiege our giant ship!"
The muscles on Xia Yiqi's face were beating slightly. Ying Mingzhi said what he was most worried about, leaving him unable to refute. However, he still didn't want to, or dare not attack at this time. He gritted his teeth.
Said: "But it is dark now, and we have lost all the long-range attack weapons. How can we let the giant ships fight at this time? You said we can win by ramming them, but who should we hit? If the enemy ship does not ignite, the two hundred
You can't see it at all from a step away. When the time comes, our giant ship will be a target for others with its bright lights, but we don't know where the enemy is in the dark. Wouldn't that mean we are going to die?"
Ying Mingzhi laughed, pointed at the water village of Jiangling City more than two miles away, and said in a deep voice: "Did you see that there, Brother Xia, we don't have to fight the enemy's ships, we just need to go towards their water village.
, send a signal again, and ask the east and west fleets to stop fighting with the enemy and come to meet the giant ship. The enemy's main ships are all outside, and the water stronghold inside is useless. We will defeat those guards in one fell swoop.
After the ships come back, at worst, they will move their long-range weapons to the giant ships, and the personnel will come over to replenish them. It will become a mobile fortress that occupies the enemy's water stronghold. Are they still afraid of the ships outside the Jin army?"
Xia Yiqi's eyes lit up, and he looked two miles away. The door was wide open, the lights were bright, and there seemed to be countless flags flying. The waving Jin army water stronghold suddenly shook his head: "No, the people on our giant ship
Almost all the long-range weapons have been destroyed, so if we want to attack the enemy's water stronghold at this time, we can't do it."
Ying Mingzhi said in a deep voice: "But the Jin army doesn't know the situation here, and they don't know that all our trebuchets and ballistae are gone. As long as our giant ship rushes over, they will think that we still have weapons on the ship."
If you have everything you need, you will be afraid. There are unlikely to be many elite warriors in those water strongholds, and they will definitely flee and collapse, leaving them vulnerable to attack."
"What's more, there are still some spare long-range weapons in the cabin of our giant ship. We still have some small and medium-sized catapults and crossbows within ten stones. Take advantage of this moment to move forward while moving out the spare long-range weapons.
If you use it, you can at least ensure that there is enough striking power on the front deck. Senior Brother Xia, don’t hesitate, the fighter plane is fleeting, go for it!”
