“Chen Zhibao, you lead troops to Shangyin City, the junction of Wujin County and Linxi County, and garrison the important town to defend against the soldiers and horses of the three Linxi counties.” “At this critical moment, target the enemy soldiers and do not let them enter.”

Lin Chengtian thought to himself: On the way to take care of Dayu’s navy, he must not be distracted, and he must be especially careful not to be outflanked from behind.

“With Chen’s support, my lord can rest assured.”

Chen Zhibao took orders neatly and exuded an aura of determination.

In front of Zhaoqushui City, it was extremely quiet.

“Is there no news from Bai Hong?”

Zhou Liang looked up, his face a little anxious.

Since the sneak attack around midnight last night, Zhou Liang has always paid attention to the direction of the smoke.

But not only was there no massive gun smoke born, Bai Hong and others also haven’t returned yet.

The guards came to reply: “Reporting to the Grand Governor, there is no trace of the return yet. Three groups of people have been sent to investigate.”

Dayu’s navy didn’t know that the water surface in the northwest water dock was calm at the moment because there had been some trouble last night.

It’s already reached this point…no news is the worst news!

There was a thump, and a bad premonition suddenly exploded in the heart of Governor Zhou Liang.

“Bai Hong is known as the dragon in the waves, and with the help of General Heng Ha, the sneak attack will not be delayed until now.”

Zhou Liang was shocked and knew that Bai Hong must have been caught.

Senior lieutenants like Bai Hong are more useful alive than dead, and they might even be able to get a lot of information out of them.

Zhou Liang’s heart was so tense that he couldn’t help but start to feel dazed. His sophisticated deployment was in vain?

Maybe, the other side is still organizing a counterattack.

After realizing that the opponent’s defense was very strong, Zhou Liang felt complicated: “Pass the order, all members will strengthen their defense, and we must not take it lightly.

Lin Chengtian was too vigilant and might attack inadvertently. ”

Later, Zhou Liang asked where the three-county coalition forces had arrived.

The subordinate licked his dry lips and reported: “Over there in the three counties…the coalition forces have just gathered and are still in the process of reorganizing the army.”

Reorganize the army? What about the foreign workers? This is it!

By the time they arrived, the daylilies were cold.

Zhou Liang cursed loudly and vented his pent-up anger: “Murong Xian is a loser. He spends all day reciting poems and writing poems, yet he moves so slowly at this time.”

“If it delays the military situation, I will be the first to write to him!”

Zhou Liang’s eyes were full of dissatisfaction. Fortunately, he didn’t rely on his allies from the beginning.

It is said that they came together to kill the thieves and worked with the same master, but after all they belonged to different places, and it was difficult to dispatch them at will.

There is no other way but to wait for the group of foreign workers to catch up.

However, Zhou Liang had evaluated his own strength and found that he did not need help at all.

He has full confidence in water battles.

On the shore, he knew that he was no match for Lin Chengtian, so he had to avoid his sharp edges and hide in Zhaoqu Water City, relying on water defense.

But on the water, the situation is completely different, Zhou Liang is even more powerful!

Within the Navy, the well-trained sailors and red-coated artillery will definitely slaughter the enemy.

In addition, Zhou Liang still had some backup plans for this expedition… He regained confidence and even expected Lin Chengtian to come forward without fear of death.

The other side.

Lin Chengtian went to the garrison along the coast and watched as the latest Shenwei artillery arrived just in time, along with 30,000 rounds of gunpowder, ready to be unloaded.

Lin Chengtian knew that these shining cannons were the dream of every military soldier, so he ordered people to call Zheng Chenggong.

“See…”

Not seen all night, Zheng Chenggong was saluting his master, clenching his fists subconsciously.

Looking at the brand new artillery, Zheng Chenggong’s eyes flashed with strong sighs.

Even if Zheng Chenggong hadn’t tested it yet, he could see that the caliber and gunpowder loading port of the Shenwei cannon were more than double the normal size.

After calming down for a while, Zheng Chenggong hurried to the loading and unloading carriage and couldn’t help but touch the Shenwei cannon: “Is this all for the use of the final general?”

Lin Chengtian nodded and told Zheng Chenggong, “This artillery technology is a level higher than what is currently used on ships.

The shooting range increased from 500 steps to 800 steps!

You must know that in Dayu’s cannon technology, it would take countless craftsmen several years to increase the firing range by ten steps, and the research may be fruitless. This increase of three hundred steps is enough to shock your jaw.

So powerful?

Zheng Chenggong’s eyes glowed with envy, and he said with great joy: “The Shenwei Cannon is worthy of its name!” “Hurry, load it on the ship!” Zheng Jiajun immediately obeyed the order, rolled up his sleeves, exposed his thick arms, and started working day and night.

The workload that originally took five or six days to complete was completely replaced in just three days.

The remaining red cannons were not idle either. They were first placed on the shore to form a row of defense forces.

“It’s done.” Lin Chengtian looked at the ships equipped with divine cannons and felt only a faint sense of power spreading.On the ship, the Zheng family army was ready to go, with a solemn appearance!

He stood on the shore, with Cao Zhengchun, Huo Qubing and others behind him.

He slightly nodded and said, “Everything is ready, except for a fierce battle.” “Zheng Chenggong, I order you to go out to fight against Qushui City immediately!” Zheng Chenggong was so excited that his eyes were red, saying that he couldn’t wait any longer.

Zheng Chenggong rushed to the main warship and shouted loudly: “Take the enemy city!” After the words fell, the red flag representing the dispatch waved to the northeast. The word “Zheng” on the flag was particularly eye-catching.

Twenty warships sailed away from the shore, showing the momentum of pushing forward hand in hand, vowing to capture Zhaoqu Water City in one fell swoop.

…Half an hour later, they called the Qushui City ferry.

“Things are bad, the enemy is attacking, there are twenty ships!” Zhou Liang’s face tightened, and after receiving the report from his subordinates, he quickly asked people to fight.

“Wait a minute, is it Lin Chengtian who is leading the troops?”

But what happened was completely unexpected.

“Probably not. The other party is playing the Zheng flag.”

Zheng?

Zhou Liang searched his mind and made sure he had never heard of this person.

Several lieutenants also looked at each other and took out the information they had obtained.

“No, I have never heard that Lin Chengtian has a general named Zheng under his command.”

Well, this is strange.

Zhou Liang thought to himself: Could it be the secret hand left by Lin Nan?

Then I thought about it and it felt wrong.

Because before, I had never heard of Lin Nan having a famous navy general named Zheng under his command.

Moreover, Lin Nan was dead and had only left his prestige. What would be the benefit of assisting an empty-handed King of Zhennan?

“No matter, let’s go out to fight first.”

As a bamboo stick fell to the ground, five thousand black-armored sailors were dispatched.

Zhou Liang asked these five thousand people to take a small boat and set off from the south of the city. They hid in the reeds outside the city and were on standby at any time.

The unstoppable momentum attracted great attention in the military camp, and everyone rushed to the reed swamp.

His eyes were cold and he walked like the wind, looking very much like a dead soldier desperate for his life.

These five thousand people were Zhou Liang’s special troops and his back-up troops.

Take a special willow leaf boat, which is extremely fast due to its light weight.

The ship carries light explosives that can detonate when approaching the opponent’s ship, similar to Dayu’s version of self-destructing sailors.

After arranging all this, Zhou Liang took a big ship and set off from the west gate.

“Zheng Chenggong, that’s all…”
