dong dong dong——
The beating of the drums reverberated across the lake.
Fan Zong's navy marched aggressively toward the sandbar in the middle of Qingpodang Lake, and soon approached the quiet reeds.
The large army did not dare to face the grass, so they let the outside walk to explore the road, and set fire to the reeds.
Soon, the roaring fire ignited, and the lake seemed to be covered with a sea of fire, and the fire was spreading inward.
At the suggestion of military advisor Du Ying, Fan Zong did not intend to use his own weaknesses to attack the enemy's strengths. He had many naval warships under his command, which was inconvenient to move in complex waterways and was vulnerable to sneak attacks, so he wanted to burn down the reeds that obstructed his view, forcing Chen Feng's naval forces to have nowhere to hide, and then proceed steadily and steadily.
Not long after the fire, dozens of small boats suddenly burst out from the reeds that were not completely burned on the flanks, carrying a group of water bandits ramming the outer formations of Fan Zong's navy and fighting on the side.
The water surface swelled with white waves, and water ghosts approached Fan Zong's fleet underwater, trying to scuttle the boat.
It's just that Fan Zong's navy is also good at water warfare, and he also released water ghosts to deal with it.
Fan Zong's fleet formation is divided into inside and outside. The inside is all kinds of warships, which are the main force of water warfare. The outside is a large number of brisk walking boats, which are used for reconnaissance, raids, interceptions, etc. At this time, the warships are peripheral.
The two sides fought for a while. These dozens of boats and bandits were not opponents. Before they were completely surrounded, they punted their boats to the side and tried to escape into the reeds in a circle from another unlit position. .
At this moment, dozens of small boats also turned out from the other flank, harassing Fan Zong's navy.
Fan Zong's troop did not chase after him, but Du Ying realized that the other party was trying to lure the enemy to go deeper, so he called the team to recall the chased team, conscious that there was no need to take risks.
The two harassing water bandits retreated to the reeds one after another.
After winning two battles, Fan Zong's army's morale lifted slightly.
Seeing this, Fan Zong snorted:
"Heh, even though Chen Feng is brave, his soldiers are not mediocre."
But those water bandits followed us not long ago, and Chen Feng took over just a few days...
Du Ying coughed, not out of time to tell the truth.
Soon, some of the reeds burned, revealing the waterway. The shallows were scattered, and even without the grass that blocked the view, it was still difficult to sail.
And when the fire spread to a distance, it didn't stop. Fan Zong and Du Ying observed carefully, only to realize that the reeds had been manipulated.
It can't be seen from the outside. Now that part of the reeds on the periphery have been burned, they can see the traces of artificial felling in the reeds, and cut them out early to cut off the fire.
If you want to continue to burn the reeds, you have to enter the complex waterway, and continue to ignite after approaching, and the remaining reeds still have a large area. In the eyes of the two, there must be more artificial felling areas hidden in them. The only thing was that their navy couldn't burn the reeds with one fire, and had to go deeper. The enemy obviously guessed that they would attack with fire.
"Tips for carving bugs."
Fan Zong snorted, rather disdainfully.
Using this clumsy trick to lure his army into a complicated waterway is too contemptible.
"Indeed, it seems that Chen Feng is a man of courage and ingenuity."
Du Ying also stroked his beard and smiled, with a teasing tone.
This kind of trick is too common, he suddenly felt a little relaxed, feeling a little high on Chen Feng.
This man is fierce, but he is not a man of scheming.
Fan Zong quickly sent an order to keep the Chinese army still, and sent a part of the outer gargoyles as commandos, brought rockets, entered the complex waterway, shot and ignited the reeds from a distance, and soon set off a fire again .
Just go forward for a while, stop for a while, burn for a while, and stop for a while.
During this period, occasionally some water bandits under Chen Feng's command broke out from the reeds and harassed the commandos.
Fan Zong's assault fleet was cut off a lot because it was in contact with the main force, and it was unable to encircle and block it in the complex waterway. It fell downwind and suffered a lot of losses.
But this casualty is nothing to Fan Zong. He doesn't plan to take the risk of moving the central army. He just sends a team of walking soldiers to continue to support the commandos.
This battle situation was stalemate for a long time. The reeds were ignited for more than ten rounds, and no one was burned. This location was broken, and the whole battlefield could be seen clearly.
It's just that Fan Zong and Du Ying were quite surprised.
There were not many ambush soldiers hidden in this huge reed bush. Except for the water bandits who kept harassing the assault fleet, there were no other ambushes. It was different from what they expected Chen Feng's army to hide here.
At first glance, the enemy water bandits who really harassed them on the lake were only about 2,000 people.
Although it is possible to drive straight in at this time, going straight to the water village in the heart of Qingpo Dang Lake, but Fan Zong did not order for a while, and his face became suspicious:
"What about the other enemy troops? Then Chen Feng didn't show up, so where did they go?"
Du Ying felt bad in his heart: "Could it be a plan of suspicion, then Chen Feng has other plans?!"
As soon as the voice fell, Fan Zongyuan's camp on the shore suddenly burst into flames and rioted.
Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see a soldier appearing out of nowhere and attacking the camp.
And Chen Feng, who originally appeared on the lake, actually reached the shore and rushed to kill, breaking the Dazhai in the blink of an eye.
"It's not good, it's a slap in the face!"
Du Ying is in a hurry.
Although their fleet traveled by water, the land camps were just as important. Not to mention some of the baggage, they still guarded the pass of the waterway.
There are many water inlets in Qingpo Dang, most of which are narrow and narrow, making it difficult for large boats to pass through. There are only two wide waterways that are most suitable for boating, one for the water inlet and the other for the water outlet. When Fan Zong's navy came, he went down the river and came from the water inlet.
The onshore camp guards two water inlets. If one of them is taken away, there will be half of the escape route. Fan Zong naturally hoarded a lot of troops here, but he had no power to fight back in front of Chen Fengfeng, just like giving it for nothing.
When the water inlet camp was attacked, the other side of the water outlet also had a situation. I saw a large number of logs drifting along the water, crowded in one place, and temporarily blocked the river.
"This Chen Feng deliberately appeared on the lake, making us mistakenly think that he was ambushing in the lake, but it was actually a plan of suspicion. He secretly ambushed a soldier and horse on the land, misleading us to compete with a pile of reeds, He somehow sneaked to the shore, took this opportunity to attack my camp on the shore, and wanted to cut off our retreat and come out of the urn to catch the turtle."
Du Ying's tone was eager.
"Even if he blocks me in the lake, what can he do? I'll be strong enough to take back the waterway pass."
Fan Zong was shocked but not panic.
In his opinion, his fleet's navy is the main force. On the lake, Chen Feng's troops can't compete with his navy at all.
Although the escape route is temporarily cut off, the main force is safe, and it is not difficult to retake the pass. It is still possible to retreat. It is whimsical to use this method to surround him.
But when Fan Zong ordered to return to the camp, he suddenly saw Zhou Jing kill through the camp alone, and jumped into the water regardless of the troops that were fighting.
"What is this for...?!"
Fan Zong's tone of doubt rose suddenly, and his eyes almost popped out.
Wow-Wow-
I saw a turbulent waterline heading straight for the fleet at an extremely fast speed. It was Zhou Jing who was moving underwater, incredibly fast, like a straight torpedo.
Naturally, Zhou Jing does not rely on swimming. His energy attribute is good now, and his martial arts arrogance is already somewhat basic. Although it is still far from flying in the air, when used in the medium of water, the effect is no different from jet sprint, and it is also concealed. .
In the water, he dared to use his martial arts arrogance to a greater extent than he was on land.
Seeing this, Fan Zong's sailors were all taken aback, and they hurried to intercept them, but they couldn't keep up with Zhou Jing's swimming speed. All the sailors flew far away and fell into the water and fluttered.
The tight formation of the fleet can only deal with normal troops, and it is useless in front of Zhou Jing.
I saw him penetrating the formation at a high speed, jumping from the water suddenly, like a raptor coming out of the water, and slamming down on the building where Fan Zong was with a splash of water.
"You, you..."
Fan Zong hurried back and pointed at Zhou Jing while trembling, stunned.
He had heard the story of Chen Feng's decapitation strategy to scare away officers and soldiers, but he just thought that in the water battle, this Chen Feng would not be as sharp as the land battle. After all, in the water, how could this Chen Feng be killed easily in front of him.
He was originally high-spirited, conscious of the superiority of the military, and his situation was safe... Seeing Zhou Jing's incredible swimming speed, his performance of walking through thousands of troops, he suddenly realized that it was a big mistake to supervise the battle in person.
——It's not that our army is weak, but the enemy is a god!
Zhou Jing shook his head, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "As the old saying goes, when a man is angry, he splatters his blood for five steps, and the enemy within three feet is all enemies, and everything I see comes at will, I want to catch them. Even if they are guarded by a large army, they are still searching for things!"
The guards and the leader next to him were stunned. Only then did they react. They hurriedly shouted and pulled Fan Zong away, and drew a knife to attack Zhou Jing at the bow of the boat.
Zhou Jing laughed and rushed forward, knocking over everyone on board with three punches and two feet. Whether it was an ordinary guard or a leader, they were not one enemy, as if they were in a no-man's land.
The surrounding warships were as anxious as ants on a hot pot. They originally stopped Zhou Jing, but they could only watch him easily rush into the array and behead him~IndoMTL.com~ Now they have to hurriedly lean against the building ship, trying to pick up reinforcements.
However, before anyone could reinforce, the fight was over, and the deck was full of people lying on the deck.
And Zhou Jing directly detained Fan Zong, stood on the bow of the boat, and shouted angrily: "You wait for the leader to fall into my hands, why don't you return quickly?"
His military strength is far inferior to Fan Zong's. Naturally, he does not intend to fight a tough battle, but intends to use his superior force.
The tactics are very simple, first lure the enemy to mislead, then cut off the enemy's retreat, wrap a dumpling to prevent the opponent from having a way to escape, and then capture the thief and the king first. As a result, even if the enemy army is large in number, the morale is collapsed, and the dragons are leaderless, fighting on their own.
However, although I directly took down the enemy's head, the opponent's army was basically damaged, and the probability of surrendering directly was not high. So the last step is to use the many water bandits that he has subdued to surround and attack, and harvest the battlefield. Although he is fighting more with less, the opponent has lost the will to fight, and it is not a big problem.
The goal is not to cause damage, but to try to make the desperate Fan Zongshui army choose to surrender. After all, his plan is to subdue this army, not to annihilate the enemy, so the fewer casualties, the better, attack morale first .
Although there are some deviations at present, the situation is generally similar.
Seeing that the leader of his family was captured so easily, many sailors around were stunned, at a loss, and their hearts were fluctuating.
"Big brother was captured!"
"Brothers, don't panic, he is only one person, everyone, save the eldest brother!"
"How can this be human? He must be a dragon, so retreat!"
"Oops, the enemy is coming!"
Seeing that the water bandits under Chen Feng's command also moved up, in an instant, Fan Zong's water army fell into chaos.
