The sea water echoed, gently swaying the two fleets facing each other east and west on the sea.
The Western Expedition.
"General," the young guard was a little confused, "What is going on with these Yunchui people?"
Ukawa Taishi remained silent.
He silently looked to the west, his mind a little confused.
The fleet in front moved slowly like a dead snake, neither attacking nor returning.
However, as long as I exerted my strength to catch up, they would keep their distance and retreat; once I retracted, they would turn around and press forward.
There is always a certain distance between the two sides. They can't attack but can't attack, and they can't run away. It's confusing.
"They may be waiting for some order or follow-up fleet." Ukawa Taishi guessed.
After all, he brought more than 250 warships of various types, far more than Yun Chuiren on the opposite side.
Although Lu Ping'an and others are young and energetic, the strength of both sides is there, so it is only natural that they dare not challenge.
"Ke Yunchuiren has no other warships in Jinlongtan, or in the whole of Baekje." The little guard said.
"Don't worry about this." Since he couldn't figure it out, Ukawa Taishi didn't want to.
He silently withdrew his gaze and said, "We only need to defend the three food islands."
It's a good thing that Yun Chuiren doesn't want to fight. He knows his family's weak foundation, and he is even more reluctant to start a fight in his heart.
Winter winter winter.
However, before Ukawa Taishi finished speaking, the earth-shattering sound of war drums came from the west.
The Zhennanguan fleet, which had always kept its distance in front, had already formed a charging formation at some point and was heading eastward with murderous intent.
Oops!
Ukawa Daishi's heart skipped a beat and he shouted subconsciously, "The whole army will fight!"
In fact, there was no need for him to shout. The moment he heard the sound of drums, all the Japanese pirate warships were already in position, staring at the enemy in the west.
"Which direction is the wind?" Ukawa Taishi asked.
The military advisor next to him looked troubled.
"General, it is spring and summer now, and the wind direction on the sea is unpredictable. Although the south wind is blowing north now, but..."
You won't know after a while.
Ukawa Taishi nodded.
He was also in a hurry. At this time, the wind direction was almost whirling and blowing, and it was impossible to tell the direction of the wind.
But as long as it is not conducive to the enemy's attack, it is a good thing.
"We have more ships! The first batch of battle camps are on top. Let's see if the enemy attacks us again or teases us like before."
"yes!"
Hua Hua Hua.
Let the flag fly.
Ukawa Taishi's order flew forward quickly.
Thirty warships of the war camp level immediately lined up from south to north, without hesitation breaking away from the large force at the rear and sailing toward the west in a menacing manner.
Quack, quack, quack.
The numerous trebuchets and heavy ballistae on the ship began to compare strings one by one, aiming far ahead.
west.
Broadcast signal.
Li Hebai on the deck looked calm.
He slapped the side of the boat hard.
"When the enemy advances, we retreat, when the enemy retreats, we advance. After going back and forth for three or four days, we finally received the signal from the Yuanning Mountains."
"We have all the Zhennanguan fleet." He shouted, "Go! Take advantage of those battle battalions."
Hua Hua Hua.
The entire Zhennanguan fleet immediately used the three warships as the tip of the sword, and all the remaining war battalions came up in an inverted triangle attack formation.
The two sides walked towards each other, and their speed slowly increased.
If there is a disagreement, there will be a head-on collision.
It didn't take long for the general who faced the Japanese pirates to see clearly the battle at Zhennanguan even though he didn't have a telescope.
They couldn't help being surprised.
"Hurry up! Send the order to General Yuchuan. Yun Chuiren and even the generals are pressing forward. This time, they are definitely serious."
Ukawa Taishi quickly received the signal from the front, but hesitated.
Yun Chui Ren’s general level is here!
And those who can intimidate or even scare away the generals are naturally the generals.
But Yun Chui's land is vast and rich in resources, and the generals will sink as soon as they sink, so they can be used at will.
However, they are not as powerful as they are.
Nowadays, every Warlord-class ship in Yamato is surrounded by a dense circle of Warcamp-class ships, protecting them tightly for fear of any accident.
Send your own warrior class to the front to collide with Yun Chui Ren's warrior class?
Let’s not talk about whether the collision is surmountable or not. Unless it is absolutely necessary, Ukawa Taishi will not even think about it.
"Send another sixty battle camp-level ships up, and we must stop them."
Although the war general class was not upgraded, there were a total of ninety war camp class ships before and after the three war general class ships and sixty war camp class ships in Zhennanguan, and the card also blocked them.
There should be no problem.
Ukawa Taishi was making calculations in his heart.
Sure enough, Li Hebai felt a little guilty when he saw the Japanese pirates approaching so many boats.
"Keep your distance and don't get too close. Shoot first!"
Rest, rest, rest!
The power and range of Yunchui's weapons were always much stronger than those of the Japanese pirates, so he took the lead in launching the attack.
Boom boom boom!
The soldiers at Zhennanguan had long been looking forward to a real naval battle, and the crossbows were aiming again and again.
Although the wind direction was a bit messy now, most of the crossbow arrows fired still hit their targets, making the Japanese warships tremble again and again.
However, the Japanese generals did not even frown.
It's just a crossbow arrow, which can be almost ignored compared to the huge hull.
As long as it doesn't hit the keel or waterline, it's like a human being being stabbed with a toothpick. Although it hurts a little, it will never be fatal.
"Our ships are so numerous that the enemy is feeling weak and dare not collide with us."
"Order that all ships hang fishing nets and be ready to put out fires and repair ships at any time. Everyone should press on and shoot at them after entering the range."
They sneered.
As long as there is no need to fight with each other through the ramming angle of the ship's bow, so what if the higher-level Warrior class has more advanced weapons.
I am not afraid at all.
Not long after, both sides entered the attack range of the trebuchet.
The battle finally became intense.
Fireballs and stones all over the sky formed dazzling arch bridges, screaming and smashing into the target.
Soon, both sides suffered damage, and the battleship in front repeatedly emitted thick smoke.
Sailors and engineers in the cabins on the deck began to run around, desperately repairing the places damaged by the enemy.
"General," Li Hebai's personal guard couldn't help but say, "Isn't it a bit boring to shoot at each other like this?"
"You see, there is a considerable distance between the Japanese pirates we are shooting at and the main fleet behind them. After we rush over and disperse them, there is still enough space. When the time comes, we can attack, retreat or defend. How about...
"
"No." Li Hebai put down the telescope and shook his head gently.
"Do you know who the general is on the opposite side?"
"That's Ukawa Taishi. We weren't even born when he was having water fights. Did he leave us such a big gap?"
ah.
The little guard was a little dumbfounded.
"Perhaps what Ukawa Daichi secretly thinks is that they have many ships and are betting that we won't dare to step forward and use the horn?"
Ha ha.
Li Hebai laughed.
"War sometimes requires soldiers to gamble and gamble, but that's when they have to. We control the initiative now, and there is no need to gamble with the lives of so many brothers. And..."
Both Android and Apple are available.]
He raised his hand and pointed forward.
"There is enough space between the two enemy fleets now. But as long as we make a big move to press forward, Ukawa Taishi from behind will immediately drive up the ship to squeeze our space."
"Once our ship knocks over the enemy in front of us, it will definitely lose its speed, and it will be their turn to hit us. Ukawa Taishi is waiting for that moment."
ah?
The little guard was a little dumbfounded.
Li Hebai smiled at him and said, "Take your time. Since the Japanese pirates like to shoot each other, we will comply with their wishes."
After saying that, he silently glanced at Yuanning Mountain to the north.
Anyway, the purpose of my trip was to contain Ukawa Taishi's men, not to eliminate them.
It doesn't matter.
