When the alarm bell sounded in the Song camp, He Weixian and the others immediately realized that their actions had been discovered, and then looked closely, but it was their own ships that were detected by the Song army sentries in the approach, and immediately rang the alarm bell to warn. Seeing this, the soldiers who attacked by their own side also accelerated and rushed towards the water village, but the Song army reacted quickly, and the soldiers on alert began to fire at the approaching enemy ships.

For a time, the sound of guns and cannons on the lake was loud, and from time to time some of the enemy soldiers on the ship were shot and fell into the water, and the artillery continued to explode around the boat, setting off a mist in the sky. The ships that were hit by the cannon were the worst, often blown out of the basin-like holes, and even sank in the water before they could be blocked, but most of the Mengyuan soldiers did not know the nature of the water, and the survivors did not have time to remove the heavy armor on their bodies.

"Quick, speed up......" Seeing that his soldiers were constantly being shot and the ships were sunk, but there was still some distance from the enemy's water village, He Weixian was anxious, clenched his fists and shouted loudly, but at this time, the sound of guns and cannons was deafening, who could hear his voice.

However, the soldiers on the ship also panicked when they saw that one ship after another was sunk, and the sailors saw that the situation was not right, and took advantage of the chaos to jump into the water to escape. They also simply lit the firewood and grass on the boat, jumped into the small boat behind and left the battlefield. The fireboat lost power, and could only move forward with the help of the waves, and the speed became slower and slower, but the fire grew larger and larger, illuminating the lake as if it were day, and attracting more intense artillery fire.

"Those who escape, cut ......" He Weixian saw that the fireboat that had lost control not only slowed down, but also deviated from the direction, and stood up and shouted in a hurry.

"Inner envoy, don't get up, lest you be injured by mistake!" They danced and shouted, but Jia Zhenhou was startled, they had not been discovered by the enemy at the moment, and their hiding place was not exposed in such a toss! But he didn't dare to come hard, so he could only persuade politely.

"Ah......" He Weixian immediately squatted down and quieted down when he heard this, he also realized that if he did this, he would attract Song Jun's shooting, and twisted his face and said, "What can I do, I'm afraid that the fireboat will be lost before it gets close!" ”

"Don't panic, wait and see, if Yuwa is lost, it should also attack!" Jia Zhenhou was still calm, he understood that the plan of attacking Shuizhai with a fireboat was difficult to realize, and with the hundreds of people in his hands to launch a surprise attack, he was afraid that it would be like a drop of water entering the sea, and he could not set off the wind and waves at all, so he could only wait for chaos in the Song camp.

The situation changed again, and the Yuan army sent dozens of fireships at once this time, although they lost control, they still continued to approach the water village by the impetus of inertia in the water waves. However, the Song army's artillery fire was fierce, but it was difficult to take care of it all, and there were still fish that slipped through the net and approached the water village, broke the wooden stake in front of the wall, and pasted it on the wall.

The walls are made of thick logs, which are also flammable. The fireboat was filled with firewood and grass, and was poured with flammable materials such as fire oil, and the fire was so fierce that it ignited the wall in an instant and spread. The Song army that was guarded by the wall of the village was in a panic, and after fighting for a while, they saw that it was difficult to succeed, so they evacuated one after another, and the water village was also in chaos, the left and right gates of the village were wide open, and the boats poured out, as if they were to evacuate to the lake, so as to avoid the annihilation of the whole army.

"Hehe, the little emperor of the Southern Dynasty is known as 'invincible', and when I see Erer today, it's just a vain name!" Seeing that in only one round, he 'broke through' the enemy's water village, and the Song army's ships fled one after another, He Weixian sneered twice, but then said sadly, "If you can listen to my plan earlier, the whole army will come by boat, and you can take advantage of the situation to rush into the enemy camp, but it is a pity that there are no soldiers available at this time, and the opportunity is lost." ”

"This ...... The inner envoy calculated, but the last general felt that this matter was strange, it is said that the water village where many boats are moored should be heavily defended, how can they easily approach and be breached? "Jia Zhenhou knows his own family affairs, and this time the army is chaotic. The fleet traveled for hundreds of miles, but did not encounter a single enemy sentinel ship on the way, and was not discovered until the fireboat rushed under its nose. It is hard to imagine that such a lax defense is from the hands of a man who has been marching and fighting since childhood, which makes his heart more and more unsteady.

"How strange is this, the rear camp is far away from the battlefield, and it would never have thought that we would run a hundred miles; Secondly, even if the thieves of the Southern Dynasty were wise and martial, they might bow down to everything, and the people below would inevitably be lax; Moreover, the Song army fought all the way and was invincible in attacking the city and pulling out the village, so it was naturally arrogant and arrogant, thinking that our army would not dare to touch its tiger whiskers, so it was defenseless! He Weixian said with a sneer.

"Maybe!" The head of what he said was the Tao, which made Jia Zhenhou unable to refute, and said vaguely with a worried face.

"We should also launch an attack as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to do anything when their ships escape from the water village and scatter on the water!" He Weixian, who had recovered his vitality, did not hear his helplessness and worry, and ordered.

"Inner envoy, Yuwa has not moved yet, why don't you wait a little longer!" Jia Zhenhou thought that the time was not yet ripe, and persuaded again.

At this time, the Song army's warships had already left the port first, and he saw more than a dozen dragon ships divided into arrays in pairs. Shoot a hook at a fireship close to the wall, and quickly reverse the ship and disconnect the ship after it is hooked; For the fireships that are still some distance away, they are not afraid of the smoke and fire to launch a collision, and the fireships that are hit are not immediately broken at the bottom of the ship, but sink near the water, and those smaller fireships are even broken by the waist, or they cannot withstand the huge impact and break in an instant; For the ships that are behind, shells are fired until they are sunk.

After clearing the waterway, the boats in the water village swarmed out and pounced on the warships in the rear. At the beginning of the expedition, in order to prevent a battle with the enemy patrol ships and to fight the enemy ships during the attack on the water wall, some of the seemingly sturdy 'big ships' were converted into warships.

Jia Zhenhou arranged the big guns they were equipped with on the bow of the ship, this kind of firearm can fire a three-inch solid projectile, which can penetrate a two-inch thick plank within fifty steps, and it is enough to shoot through the gunwales of the warship in a water battle, and can be used for long-range attacks, destroying and damaging enemy ships first, and of course, mainly used to kill and injure the sailors on the ship.

Another weapon is called 'helpless', which is a weapon used to defend the city in the past, with a reed mat as a circle, five feet around and seven feet long, pasted with paper cloth on the outside, and then wrapped in silk and linen, and stored gunpowder twists and various types of explosive firearms inside. Hanging at the head of the city with a long pole, the enemy will light the line of fire when attacking the city, burn the suspension cable, and 'helplessly' fall, and all the firearms contained in it will be launched, blowing up the enemy's siege equipment and killing and wounding soldiers. And in this operation, he also carried this 'helplessness' onto the ship and hung it on the mast for burning the enemy ship after the two ships approached, in fact, this is also a helpless choice for the lack of water warfare weapons.

What made Jia Zhenhou strange was that the big gun, which was regarded as a sharp weapon, was out of order, and the enemy dragon ship that was rushing ahead at the moment did not seem to be affected by the shot, not only did it not sink into the water, but it was not heavily damaged, and it was still able to move freely. However, after being hit, they no longer approached, but fired at a distance with their loaded gunwales, and the number of equipment was significantly greater than their own, and instead their own ships dodged left and right, and they were embarrassed.

And as the warships of the Song army continued to rush out of the water village, the situation of their own warships was even more dangerous. Even Jia Zhenhou, a layman in water warfare, can see that the enemy's naval army is not only well-trained, advancing and retreating freely, but also attacking separately and outflanking under the command of the handsome ship, skillful in tactical use, and there is also a huge difference in equipment. And each of your own ships is no more than two big guns, poor power, slow rate of fire, difficult to fight back, want to get close to the enemy ship, let alone use the 'helpless' big killing weapon, but once hit by the enemy ship is the end of self-immolation.

"Jia Qianhu, this envoy heard that your father was an enemy of ten thousand people, and he never flinched from the battlefield. And you have also fought the battlefield, when Ali Buge rebelled in the northwest, you led your headquarters to rush into the enemy formation under the disparity in strength, defeated the enemy's two thousand troops, and killed more than 20 enemy troops. Because of this battle, he was appreciated by the Great Khan, and then he was selected as a firearm guard and promoted to a thousand households. Why are you so timid and cowering now? He Weixian said sharply after hearing this.

"At present, the enemy army is in disarray, and the ships have taken refuge in the harbor, and if they do not attack at the moment, they will be scattered on the surface of the lake for hundreds of miles, and they will fall short. If he hesitates at the moment and delays the fighter, the envoy will definitely play the Great Khan truthfully, and severely punish the former against the fate. If this battle is won, the envoy will also play with good words, ask for merit for the generals participating in the battle, and force the enemy to withdraw his troops, and the thieves of the Southern Dynasty will be frustrated, and the Great Khan will also be rewarded, and the high-ranking officials will do their best! At this time, it can be seen that the mast lights in the water village are swaying, obviously the ships are starting one after another, preparing to leave the village, He Weixian's eyes show a fierce light.

"Yes, the last general obeys!" Seeing his own warships being sunk one after another, Jia Zhenhou's heart was full of bitterness. And thinking that attacking the water village at this moment might relieve the pressure on the water, he obeyed.

Jia Zhenhou immediately ordered the hidden soldiers to rush out from the hiding place, each of them lit the fire rope, and ordered several large guns to shoot at the wall to open the breakthrough. After two rounds of bombardment, the wooden stake used as the wall was broken, and a large opening appeared. An advance group of soldiers stepped forward and fired rockets into the wall, while slashing and slashing with axes to widen the breach, and then the group rushed through the gap into the enemy camp.

"Bitter!" When Jia Zhenhou rushed into the camp with the team, he looked at the water village but it was an empty water surface, and it was not at all the imaginary scene of ant-like boats gathering together. The countless mast lanterns they saw outside the village were nothing more than lanterns hanging from rows of tall trees on the lake, and in this case, it was obvious that their battle plan had failed, but whether this was a trap laid by the enemy, or whether this was simply a fake camp with a suspicious formation, he could not tell for a while......
