Chang Wei suddenly realized that since the White Lotus Sect was a disaster, the armies in Shandong have lost their troops and lost successive battles, and it was not until Yuan Keli took office that the situation was stabilized, but he just killed and 'destroyed the enemy's nest', which is tantamount to a slap in the face of his colleagues in Shandong. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

If this kind of record is reported, I don't know how many people will be jealous of him, and how many enemies will be erected in secret, although he has really destroyed the enemy's nest. It is very different to change one word to break, destroying is equivalent to saying that the enemy is completely wiped out, and there is no more, and breaking is equivalent to defeat, and it is very common to win and lose on the battlefield.

Between 'destroying' and 'breaking', but there is such a distance between heaven and earth! Chang Wei was not only glad that he had found a good strategist.

Of course, it's not all good news, I just received a report from Yin An: after the military order was clearly issued, the two soldiers were still venting their **** on the outstanding female captive, Chang Wei was furious, and immediately ordered the two to be beheaded under the flagship to show the public.

This move moved the soldiers, you must know that these two people are veterans from the Shenji Battalion, whether they are fighting or ordinary training, they are all top-notch figures. Even such a person can be killed, how can a soldier dare to challenge military discipline again? Of course, they only have reverence and no complaints, and the volunteer battalion has recovered from a state of slight chaos to a state of full order.

After dealing with all this, the soldiers set fire to all the buildings of Crouching Tiger Mountain, and all the ships slowly marched along the iron waterway in the flames and the rising sun.

Sailing into the whirlpool area, Chang Wei looked at the whirlpools in the cabin that seemed to be unable to have a substantial impact on the big ship, and asked, "You have been operating here for nearly ten years, haven't you been discovered?"

"Yes. Dai Qingxin pointed to the ships loaded with prisoners behind and said, "In the past few years, ships have broken in every month, and most of those ships are. It's just that all the people who strayed in were killed, and the boats were also seized, and we released the wind through Lou Village, saying that the water conditions in the backwater bay were treacherous, and no one dared to approach, and gradually no one dared to come, even if there were still boats blown in by the chaotic wind, it was difficult to escape death. ”

Chang Wei shook his head and asked, "The three women who assassinated Wei Liangdong in the Nanjing casino are the holy daughters of the White Lotus Sect, right?"

"Their identities are not clear, and I have never heard of any saint who went to Nanjing to assassinate, probably the five of the chief sect. ”

According to the intelligence of Dai Qingxin's six people, Chang Wei confirmed that Lou Village was the secret base of the White Lotus Sect. As soon as he came out of Huishuiwan, Chang Wei sent Chang Ping, Wang Zhuang, Hu Yang, Lu Wenmao, Li Hong, and Liao Shun to lead the fleet and surround the Lou Village that stretched into Dushan Lake from the north and south. And sent all the masters accompanying him to them, but Huikong was a little listless during the day, so Chang Wei let him stay on the flagship to rest.

Although the main force of the fleet was sent out, Chang Wei had a flagship and a hundred and ten captive ships here, which looked like the main force, and let the fleet raise the flag and blow the trumpet to approach Lou Village with great fanfare, which immediately attracted all the attention of the enemy.

The thieves cooperated very well to drive all their warships out of the harbor to the east to meet Chang Wei's fleet, Chang Wei deliberately slowed down the gunners, and bombarded weakly with light tiger squat guns, which sounded like a demoralized army.

The enemy was sure to hit the plan, filled the sails, filled the oars, and met them heroically. Seeing this, Chang Wei immediately let the ship escape to the north, and the speed was not fast, just enough to hang the enemy ship.

Thirty miles north of Dushan Lake will reach the entrance to Nanyang Lake, where there are many islands and belong to the sphere of influence of Zou County, which is under the complete control of the White Lotus Sect. In the eyes of the thieves, Chang Wei's move to the north was tantamount to suicide.

So the enemy ship pursued it more urgently, and after traveling three or five miles, the enemy oarsmen changed hands with all their might, and the speed of the ship suddenly slowed down. Chang Wei immediately ordered more than a dozen musketeers to shoot freely, but the enemy ship was still two miles away, and the chaotic gunfire not only did not pose the slightest threat, but became the laughing stock of the enemy, and the thieves despised the official ships in front of them more and more in their hearts.

After chasing hard for a while, the north and south sides of the old nest in the rear Lou Village suddenly shook the sky, and the frightened enemy ships shook for a while and could no longer care about the pursuit, so they immediately turned around and went back to the rescue, but will Chang Wei give them this opportunity?

"The right is full of rudders, and the sails are full!"

With the order, the sailors who had been waiting for a long time quickly steered the fleet across the lake in a beautiful large arc, and cut into the flank of the enemy ship from the right oblique.

"Test firing of the bow gun!"

The flagship ship's first gun has always been 'occupied' by the first gunner Wang Zhuang, and now the gunners finally have the opportunity to operate this 3,000-pound Hongyi cannon, and they can't help but be overjoyed, and even the speed of operation is much faster.

"Solid sub-bomb loading!"

"Sideways southeast wind!"

"It's three and a half miles away. ”

"Relative to the speed of the ship five watches. ”

"The elevation angle is seventeen degrees plus two. ”

"Aim, first test shot!"

As professional orders were issued, the flagship's drums and trumpets sounded in unison, the thick smoke of gunpowder rose instantly, the tall and upright bow of the ship sank down sharply, and the surrounding lake water fluctuated rapidly towards the reef not far away.

A dark red cannonball burst out of its chamber and smashed into the enemy ship with a loud bang.

Bang!

The solid shell crossed the target, tearing a small boat to pieces, and flying sawdust and scattered flesh flew up for a long time, announcing the great power of the bow gun.

"Damn, aim at the point, otherwise Wang Cannon will laugh at us again when he comes back. ”

"I know, the boat was a little bumpy in the turn just now, just wait for it to turn around!"

"Okay, clear the chamber and prepare the shells!"

Soon the flagship was set up, and the fleet was all within two miles of the turning maneuver, and at this distance the trebuchets and heavy crossbows on the enemy ships were already capable of threatening the battleship. But the thieves' accuracy was too poor, and the whistling stone bullets and crossbow arrows were too far away from the warships, and they could not pose the slightest threat to the fleet except for the waves.

In the hurried mood of the gunners, the second round of the ship's bow gun was reloaded, and the wolf-like roar sounded again, "Fire!"

This time, the boat was steady and close, and the six-pound lead bullet hit the largest enemy ship with a loud bang, and the cannonball cut in from the left side of the enemy ship, and instantly plowed a huge gap three feet long and one wide in the middle of the hull, and the cannonball fell into the lake with bone, splashing a large splash and twisting the warship.

The moment the shell tore open the hull, the cabin caught fire, and at the same time, the icy lake water frantically poured into the ship, and the wonderful coexistence of water and fire was briefly realized at this moment. Soon, the boat filled with water, the bow and stern of the boat, rose high and broke into two in a moment, and slowly sank to the bottom of the lake.

The formation of the bandit fleet immediately became scattered, some wanted to meet the enemy sideways, some fled indiscriminately, and more accelerated to retreat in the direction of Loucun to the west.

"Haha, hit!"

"Damn, this time I see what else is crazy about Wang Cannon. ”

Amid the cheers of the gunners, a hurried horn sounded, and the sailors swung their long oars and accelerated towards the bandit fleet.

Within a mile of each other, a large number of Tiger squat guns joined the bombardment, and the enemy's nightmare came, and the enemy ships began to be greatly reduced in personnel, and their speed became slower and slower. Soon the distance was shortened to within a hundred paces, and the sound of muskets like fried beans rang out.

Chang Wei leisurely instructed the musketeer on the marksmanship, "No, the distance is a bit far, and the muzzle of the gun is a little higher than usual." ”

The captain scolded loudly: "Did you hear that, the adults themselves are the instructors to guide you, give me a good beating!"

Chang Wei adhered to the principle of not interfering with the normal order of operations, and said with a smile: "I'm not an instructor, at best a coach." ”

I don't know when Huikong came to his side and responded: "Coach, I want to shoot a musket!" (To be continued.) )
