Chapter 577: The Storm Strikes
The ships of the Gongsun family transporting war horses are actually much larger than the naval warships. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But merchant ships and warships are really incomparable, both have defensive formations, but compared with the tight and sturdy defensive formations of warships, the defense of merchant ships can only be said to be better than nothing.
In terms of aggressiveness, merchant ships are even worse, not to mention heavy ordnance such as bed crossbows and stone cannons, merchant ships cannot have them, just talking about the heavy ramming angles on the bow of the warship, which can easily sink the merchant ship.
You can't beat it, the key is that even if you don't hit it, you can't hit it.
Even Gongsun Weiming was a little hesitant when he heard this, "This is ...... yes. ”
Li Yongsheng smiled faintly and didn't explain, "Just do what I tell you." ”
Before he could say anything, he was glared at by the four elders fiercely, so he could only go to Zhang Luo obediently.
They were preparing with great fanfare, and they were seen by the Huiji Water Army.
The officers and men of the water were quite puzzled by this, and some people asked suspiciously, "Drink fresh water...... Are you going to escape?"
"Whatever they want to escape," some disagreed, "don't go ashore if you have a kind." ”
"At least there is a real person who drives the flying boat," someone made a new guess, "this is ...... Are you going to make fresh water?"
Cultivators have the ability to make fresh water, not to mention real people, and the cultivators can make fresh water in small amounts.
But with such a large fleet and so many war horses, even fifteen real people, each of whom is responsible for one ship, can't make so much fresh water.
Of course, there are pessimists in the army, "They won't force their way in, will they? ”
Like the boatmen hired by the Gongsun family, most of the sailors don't want to see the other party - just scare them and let the other party retreat.
However, the officer of the navy sneered and said, "If they dare to break in, we will dare to sink it!"
Such doubts are not only shared by the Huiji Naval Army, but also by the Gongsun family's fleet - are we really not afraid of being hit and sunk?
As time passed, half an hour had passed, and the Gongsun family's fleet began to prepare for action, and the atmosphere was amazingly depressing.
Even Gongsun Weiming was a little breathless, he came to Li Yongsheng and asked in a deep voice, "This ...... Are we really going to break in? You kid must have something else to say, right?"
Li Yongsheng smiled slightly, and asked indifferently, "Why, don't you dare?"
"There's nothing my Gongsun family wouldn't dare," Gongsun Weiming replied proudly, and then he changed his words, "However, even if I let my family kill officials and rebel, you have to make a prophet, right?"
He believes in Li Yongsheng, but if he accidentally falls into the rhythm of rebellion, it will be a bit wronged - don't look at what he said, with the current strength of the Gongsun family, he really can't afford to rebel.
Li Yongsheng grinned, "I'm going to tell you, I can calculate the weather, I don't know if you believe it or not?"
"Cut, I can too," Gongsun Weiming smiled disdainfully, raised his hand and took out nine jade-colored shells, and threw them into the tea tray casually, "Isn't it just to calculate the heavenly chance, look at my ...... Huh?"
The next moment, he looked at the hexagram and was stunned, "How, how...... Why can't you calculate the weather? Is there a great power to cover the sky, as for it?"
Gongsun Weiming's Heavenly Skill is actually very ordinary, but calculating the weather really doesn't require too high attainments.
Of course, he wouldn't calculate the heavenly machine at every turn, even if it was a very ordinary way to calculate the weather—after all, the heavenly machine technique was against the way of heaven and was harmful to the estimator himself.
Now he was not convinced, and raised his hand to grab the jade shell again, intending to count it again.
At this moment, the sky in the southeast was a little dark.
Gongsun Weiming saw it on the side of his head, and couldn't help but be stunned, "I'll go, Storm?"
The rest of the crew also found out about this situation and couldn't help but get agitated.
Sailing on the sea, the most afraid is to encounter a storm, this thing is really unreasonable, in front of Tianwei, manpower seems to be extremely small.
Looking at the scale of this storm, even a beginner real person has plans to go ashore.
Gongsun Weiming, a high-level real person, could be spared, or even shelter two or three ships, but no matter how much it was, it was impossible.
"Dock, dock," a boatman shouted, his voice full of fear, "if we don't dock again, everyone will die!"
At this time, they no longer care about thinking about those war horses, and if they get on the shore, they will be detained, and they will be detained, as long as they live.
Gongsun Weiming's eyes lit up, he looked sideways at Li Yongsheng, and asked in a low voice, "Did you invite the true monarch?"
Although he is frizzy, he is not stupid, Li Yongsheng went and returned, and he couldn't calculate the weather, so it could only be that Zhenjun made a move.
Such a big movement can only be made by the true monarch - in good conscience, the true monarch may not be able to make such a move.
The junior real person next to him lit up, but his eyes lit up, I'll go, Master Li, do you want to be so fierce, just for two thousand war horses, please move the true monarch to make a move?
In fact, it is difficult to do spiritual cultivation for such a thing as calling for wind and rain, but it is relatively easy to practice it.
Li Yongsheng smiled slightly, "Where is there any true monarch? I just casually set up a small formation." ”
"It's strange to believe you!" Gongsun Weiming glared at him angrily, joking, "Your formation, if it can cover my heavenly calculations, aren't you also a true monarch?"
Li Yongsheng glanced at him, and didn't bother to say much, and said in his heart that my formation can really withstand your calculations.
Gongsun Weiming saw that he was silent, and asked again, "Your formation can't hurt us, right?"
Li Yongsheng snorted angrily, "Do you think I'm such an unreliable person?"
Regarding Li Yongsheng's reliability index, Gongsun Weiming is still quite relieved, especially since he is very aware of Master Li's formation attainments, although in his heart, he does not believe that this is caused by the formation.
So he shouted, "Close, close, no landing, no ......landing! You're in good hands!"
Some boatmen still refuse to listen to him, you are just a real person, not a real king.
"Made, is the reputation of my Gongsun family like this?" Gongsun Weiming's eyes widened angrily, "The children of the Gongsun family have listened well, and whoever doesn't listen to the order will insult my Gongsun family...... No mercy!"
Each of these fifteen ships has children from the Gongsun family, and they are basically the top armed forces on the ship, and when they heard that the four elders had raised the situation to "insult the family", they had to speak out and scold the boatmen on their ships.
Although the four elders are relatively unreliable, at critical moments, the children of the clan will choose to believe in him unconditionally.
Just as the fifteen ships were hurrying closer, the dark clouds in the distance rushed forward at an astonishing speed, and within the time of tea, half of the sky had become black and oppressive.
", stand back," the commander of the naval warship also shouted, "enter the harbor to avoid the limelight, enter the harbor to avoid the limelight." ”
Although the ships of the navy are sturdy, the odds of victory against the storm are really not very high.
At this time, they no longer care about intercepting each other's ships, and in the face of such a heavenly power, any kind of small calculation seems extremely ridiculous - although the interests of the war horse are great, they must also have their lives to enjoy it.
Eight warships blocked the waterway of the Yangtze River, which was not far from the port, and it was extremely convenient to retreat.
Four of the river warships were the fastest and slipped directly into the port, but the four sea ships were a little unwilling, relying on their huge size, they did not enter the port, but just retreated to the port.
It's no wonder that they are lucky, the storm is coming, but how big it is, it's hard to say, especially this kind of storm with no warning, many times it won't be big.
A real storm is most likely preceded by some omen.
If the wind and rain were not very strong, they would still try to stop the sea boats of the Gongsun family.
It seemed that in the blink of an eye, it was more than half dark, and then the raindrops the size of broad beans fell.
Immediately after that, the wind blew fiercely, and swept towards the mouth of the sea.
Seeing this, the navy's ships were frightened and shouted, "Come into port, come into port!"
But then, someone noticed the strangeness, "Wait, wait...... It doesn't seem like a big wave!"
It doesn't matter if the wind is strong, the key is to see how strong the waves are.
However, the next moment, the person who thought that it didn't matter if the wind was strong shrank, "This wind is too strong, enter the port!"
The four sea ships sailed towards the port, and many people turned back to see the fifteen ships of the Gongsun family.
The boatmen of these fifteen ships were so frightened that their faces turned white, but with the children of the Gongsun family watching them, even if they wanted to make any moves, they could only obediently dismiss their thoughts.
Once they offend the Gongsun family, even if they can get away with it this time, they won't want to do business in Liaoxi County in the future.
In fact, the faces of the children of the Gongsun family are not much better than those of the boat family, although there are many children who know how to water, but if they fall into the water in this weather, it doesn't matter if the water is really good.
If it weren't for their confidence in their own elders and the knowledge that he couldn't harm his clansmen, they might have been able to run faster than the boatmen.
Some of the horses, however, seemed to be a little excited by the strong wind of this great work, and they kept neighing.
Almost instantly, the rain became dense, but the raindrops did not lighten, as if someone had poured water directly from the sky.
Gongsun Weiming spoke to Li Yongsheng, "You can enter the Yangtze River now...... Lying in a trough, such a big hailstone?"
The dense raindrops were mixed with hail the size of broad beans and occasionally the size of pigeon's eggs.
"It's okay," Li Yongsheng nodded with a smile, thought for a moment and then said, "Don't be full of sails." ”
"Look at what you said," the junior real person of the Gongsun family smiled bitterly, "Who dares to sail at this time?"
This is not to blame me, Li Yongsheng smacked his mouth stupidly, I am really not familiar with sailboats.
