The sun on the sea in April was not very hot, the sky was high and the clouds were clear, and the spring breeze was blowing. It was a good scene in spring. However, at this time, two fleets met in the south and north. To be more precise, they were the fleets coming from the south.
He rushed towards the ships to the north with murderous intent.
The number of ships on both sides is not equal. There are sixteen ships in the south and as many as twenty-five or six in the north, which is 30 to 40% more than the former. There are more large ships and stronger strength. However, the morale of the crews of both sides is poor.
It is completely opposite to the strength. Although the northern fleet is numerous, it is a newly defeated army, and although the southern fleet is small, it is an organized division. In this way, the numerical difference between the two sides is almost insignificant.
Lin Qi led his subordinate leaders to the top of the third floor of the cabin. The face was covered with dark clouds, and his eyes were stern. He held a spy tube in his hand and looked through the window. This red-haired Western object called a telescope was extremely magical and was called a telescope.
Lin Qilao regarded it as a magical object, which had the effect of shrinking the ground into an inch. He could see all kinds of enemy ships in the distance, which could be said to be meticulous and vivid.
Lin Qilao observed for a long time, then slowly put down the spy tube, gritted his teeth and said: "Yi Mu Lao, Hu Er Lao... two old thieves who are seeking death! If I don't go to find trouble for you, you should burn incense. Now let's start a fight."
It’s my idea to treat me as a meal. Hahaha! I don’t know if you have such good teeth. Be careful not to eat anything and your teeth will break!”
"..." The Taipan Lao on the side had a pale face after hearing this, his eyelids were twitching, and his eyes were old. Hu Erlao and Lin Qilao had no grudges in the past, but they had a lot of bad blood with Hu Erlao. He thought that he was causing trouble for Lin Qilao.
How can I not be afraid when I am upper body?
Lin Qilao glanced sideways at Taipan Lao, knowing clearly what the latter was thinking, and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you. Mr. Yimu is very ambitious. Even without your bad things, the old thief would have fallen down when I saw him
He would also come over and step on me."
When the boss heard this, he suddenly became confused and said boldly: "Master Qi, if you let me be the vanguard, today either they will die or I will die!"
"No! The other party has obviously been planning for a long time and is well prepared. Why don't we take a step back temporarily and wait until we regain our strength to kill the two thieves?" Some people suggested that they should avoid the edge temporarily. This opinion was popular with everyone, and several people immediately received it.
Echoed.
"Can't retreat..." Lin Qilao slowly shook his head. Let's not talk about whether he can get rid of his opponent. How can he give up even if he gets rid of the opponent temporarily? When the time comes, Yimu Lao and others will go directly to the door of his house to show off their power. Da Chen
What will the people in the mountain think of him? Lin Qilao has no choice but to fight. Seeing his determination, everyone immediately stopped talking and returned to their boats to prepare for the battle. After the crowd dispersed, Lin Qilao turned his head
The friend next to him said: "If such a big thing happened, why don't you see Mr. Li?"
The confidant replied with a strange expression: "Mr. Li said he feels unwell and is bedridden."
"I know..." Lin Qilao said coldly.
…
Huang Chen stood on the ship's commander's platform. His long black hair was wrapped in a gold mesh scarf and fixed with a jade hairpin. He was wearing shorts and long trousers that were different from those of the time. The style of the waist and sleeves was similar to a brown bun.
The luxurious use of silk and satin materials is like using gold and silver to make farm tools for working in the fields, giving people a nondescript feeling.
As a person with modern ideas, Huang Chen would have encountered many inconveniences when living in ancient times. He wanted to cut off the long hair on his head, but this was really rebellious. First of all, he couldn't get through the mother's test, so he had to give up and put it aside. Clothing
The second problem was that the robes were too wide to move around, and the brown robes were short, narrow, ugly, and other styles were not to his taste. So he simply went to a tailor shop in the market and asked a tailor to make a few sets of modern styles according to his requirements.
The clothes. In order to avoid shocking everyone, the clothes are all simple and unremarkable, but they still look weird to outsiders. Xia Chong can't talk about ice. Huang Chen himself feels comfortable wearing it, so he doesn't care about other things.
How do people view….
Huang Chen looked into the distance with his eyes, his sight stretched as far as he could, capturing the shabby enemy ships on the sea. This battle was actually destined for a long time. Yimu Lao and Hu Erlao had been secretly planning to get rid of Lin Qilao and replace him since last autumn and winter.
After preparations, once launched, it is bound to win. However, Huang Chen does not think that Lin Qilao can be defeated in this battle. The reason is very simple. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. This battle is just the beginning, and the two sides may have to fight against each other.
It will take a year or two to finally decide the outcome.
Not to mention, maybe due to luck, Huang Chencheng has experienced several big battles and small battles in the past ten months. Miraculously, his crew members have maintained an astonishing zero mortality rate. You must know that they are pirates who lick their blood with their swords.
Dead people are considered ordinary. Unfortunately, such an impressive record may end here today. Huang Chen's efforts to be a good ship owner are unimaginable to ordinary people. He can call out the names of everyone under his command, and even his family status.
Observing them all in detail. After spending many months together day and night, Huang Chen deeply realized that they were all living people with their own joys, sorrows, and joys, and he could not regard them simply as NPCs. He did not want to see anyone die, but the reality was that
Some of them must die today.
Huang Chen kept telling himself like a hypnosis that the chance of their death at the hands of others would be higher. Although this move seemed to be deceptive, it did have some effect and made his slightly heavy heart relax a little. Soon Huang Chen paid attention
Attracted by the movement on the opposite side, I saw Lin Qi's old fleet turning to the southwest in unison, seemingly intending to seize the upper wind position.
"Lin Qilao has no intention of giving in. This battle is inevitable." Huang Chen shook his head and said to the leaders behind him: "You have been following me for at least half a year, and you have suffered countless hardships during this period. The time has come to test the results today, don't let me down.
.”
"Ship owner, don't worry, we will definitely show off our power and impress everyone." All the leaders clapped their chests to show their appreciation.
Huang Chen nodded, turned his eyes to Chen Si and Chen Wu, and said: "Your two brothers were temporarily sent by Brother Wu to help me, but they stayed voluntarily afterwards. If I don't give you a future, Brother Wu will not laugh at you."
Kill me?" Huang Chen pointed to Chen Si and said: "If there is any gain in this battle, you, fourth brother, will be my second ship owner, and fifth brother, you will take over the stewardship of your brother."
Chen Si and Chen Wu were overjoyed when they heard this, secretly celebrating that they had made the right choice. The two of them asked themselves that their abilities were not inferior to anyone else, but they were just a little less qualified. They were not from Wang Feng Wu Township, and they might not be able to become the captain of his ship even in the years of monkeys and horses. Huang Chen here
Otherwise, as a newly emerging force that lacks backbone support, they would have plenty of opportunities to rise to the top if they stayed. Sure enough, the opportunity has come now.
Huang Chen promised to stimulate Chen Si and Chen Wu's fighting spirit with benefits, and poured cold water on them at the right time: "Don't get too happy too early, this battle will never be easy." Then Huang Chen waved his hand to everyone: "Go,
Go prepare for war."
All the leaders responded in unison and turned around to get off the general platform. Soon shouts and shouts sounded from all over the deck.
Lin Qilao put the heavily damaged ships to the rear and placed the relatively intact warships in the front. This was to prevent the enemy from attacking the damaged ships and causing too many casualties to his own side, and on the other hand to concentrate the main force for a quick battle.
The intention of a quick decision. Lin Qilao is very aware of the current situation of his own side, which is a shortage of supplies, low morale, and a damaged ship... There are many unfavorable factors, and these unfavorable factors will gradually amplify over time, which may eventually lead to catastrophic consequences.
In a word, Lin Qilao can't afford to delay.
Ichimoku knew this very well, so compared to Lin Qilao's neat formation of warships, his fleet was relatively loose. It was obvious that he had no intention of confronting Lin Qilao head-on, and planned to use a melee to kill his opponent.
Ichimoku has been wandering on the sea for most of his life. When it comes to naval battle experience, even three Lin Qilao tied together may not be as good as him. When the two sides approached, Ichimoku decisively sent two bird boats to tow seven or eight small boats loaded with gunpowder.
They circled to the flank and attacked Lin Qilao's rear. After a near-suicidal charge, the fire ship successfully ignited a slow-moving ship with a broken mast.
After winning the first battle, Ichimoku immediately sent a team of fire boats around to the other side to repeat the same trick.
Faced with Yimu Lao's continuous actions, Lin Qilao blocked the left and right, and was in a hurry, which also distracted his energy to a certain extent. By the time he cleared the trouble, Yimu Lao had already led his boat to rush in front of him, and then did not give him any response.
At that moment, each warship was like a nail wedged into the flawless fleet formation. In an instant, cannons rumbled and shouts of killing began...
