Chapter 131
For Jiutian, the discussion at the bow of the ship and the supervision of the battle in the ship building are the most important things. The discussion at the bow of the ship is a tradition of pirates and even sea people for hundreds of years, which represents the unity and trust of the pirates.
But the bow battle is Gu Ruyang's original form. Although the ship also has a ship building nine days before it was built, those ships are not big and the building is not tall. Pirates prefer to arrange a witty sailor to stand on the mast Observing maritime affairs from the top, if the two formations meet and the opponent’s formation changes, the sailors on the mast will beat the drums to inform the captain who is leading the team. At this time, the captain will make another change and march to the town.This method has been used for several years, but there are three disadvantages. First, the sailors standing on the mast are easy targets for the enemy, which means that they have to be replaced continuously. Second, the information is transmitted to the mast, and the mast is transmitted to The deck also slows down the time for information transmission. In the end, if the tacit understanding between the sailors on the mast and the captain on the deck is insufficient, everything is likely to be chaotic.Not only Gu Ruyang, but most pirates have discovered this problem, but most of them came up with a solution to train special sea watchers individually. These sea watchers have the eyes of eagles and the courage of tigers. Shi was once a sea watcher on Gu Ruyang's boat.But for Gu Ruyang, she wants to expand her sea area, so that she has to face more enemies and more unpredictable formations. Seeing that the sea people can no longer meet her needs, she built a They set up the giant ship Jiutian, and built a war supervisor platform on the ship tower of Jiutian, where they can watch the sea and stars in their free time, and this is the core of the fleet during wartime.
At this time, a team of sea watchers stood at each of the four corners of the ship building, and each team consisted of three people. One person was in charge of beating the drums, one was in charge of raising the flag, and the remaining one was in charge of passing the signal to the captain.Gu Ruyang sat on a seat in the middle of the ship building, and there was a sand table in front of her. On the sand table was the situation of the ship between herself and the other party. If you look at the sand table if you look at the sea game, this is just one of the means, and because Gu Ruyang was originally in the game, if the situation is special, she will also watch the sea by herself, just like the last time with Qi Navy, Gu Ruyang personally trader.
Whether the four teams of sea watchers or the team leader who watched the market, they only need to be responsible for conveying the situation of the sea formation, and they don't need to analyze the existing situation or give orders. The captain of the team is the real executor in the war.
"North Point, twelve lucky boats—"
"Dongjiao, twelve lucky boats—"
After the two corners of the Kanhairen finished their speeches, Fan Zhang, who was watching the sand table, immediately took out 24 lucky boats from under the tray and placed them in the positions mentioned by the Haiyan.In the center of the sand table, nine boats were placed, and some shells were placed behind the nine boats. These shells represented the retreating fishing boats. However, no one except Gu Ruyang knew where these fishing boats were going. The person is Ruan Qiniang.
Nine large ships lined up in a herringbone shape, and the one at the beginning of the herringbone was Jiutian, and this line of boats was leading the way to the southwest all the way.
"Want to outflank" Gu Ruyang asked again, she glanced at the banner behind her, at this time the south wind was still blowing, which was more beneficial for Zheng Qi.
"Put down the sails, speed up to the southwest, notify other ships, parallel in twos, and place the troops on the south side."
"Order!"
The people watching the sea from all directions shouted at the same time, saying that the four drummers beat at the same time. Although there were four of them, the orderly sound seemed to come from one hand. Even before a stick of incense arrived, the drums on other ships also sounded, as if they were responding to Jiu Tian's order.
"Zhenyuan has been received and is changing direction..."
"The Spirit Sword has been received and is changing direction..."
"Joy Luck has been received and is changing direction..."
The four sea watchers kept reporting the situation on the sea, and the commander in charge of the sand table quickly changed the formation on the sand table.
"The southern Zhengqi Navy is speeding up! It's about eight nautical miles away from us." Said the sea watcher standing in the south corner, and at the same time took out his clairvoyance to take a closer look, and reported: "Only the first four of the twelve ships have archers..."
Gu Ruyang showed an unexpected smile: "It's okay, we will continue to go southwest, and drag them as far as we can."
"But Mr. He's boat is still twenty nautical miles away from here, if..."
"It doesn't matter." Gu Ruyang still looked relaxed: "They want to use our ship to fight, but they are still a bit short."
Seeing that the chief was still puzzled, Gu Ruyang reminded again: "We make good use of Fuchuan, and they make good use of Guangzhou Ship."
"So that's the case, the head of the family is really wise."
It turns out that Fuchuan and Cantonese are both large ships, but there are many differences. Fuchuan does not have a prow. Cantonese has a proboscis. However, the stability of Fuchuan is higher than that of Guangchuan. If Zheng Qi’s army is good at using Guangzhouchuan, if they temporarily switch to Fuchuan in operation, they will definitely be a little uncomfortable in turning the rudder. There will be four ships equipped with archers, which means that everyone who is familiar with Fu Chuan has boarded those four ships. It seems that twelve ships are confronting nine ships, but in fact it is nine ships against four ships. One of the ships is Jiutian.
"Don't flatter, keep an eye on the enemy troops coming from the east. In the current situation, it is best to destroy them separately."
"Order!"
The icy waves beat against the hull, and the waves hit the deck. The sailors of Dazhou had long been accustomed to such an environment. The failure in the Qionger Strait taught them what is called a naval battle, but the battle in front of them It has also aroused terrifying memories for countless people. Maybe the sailors in the Northern Qi Dynasty were terrifying, but now they are facing the daughter of the sea, the overlord of the sea—Gu Ruyang.
"Donkey, hold the oars for me!" A boatman said to the boy beside him.
"Second Uncle Jia, I'm panicking." The boy looked at his trembling hands and said.
"What are you afraid of!" The second uncle Jia shouted loudly, but after the soldier beside him left, he lowered his voice and said, "We will jump into the sea if a fight really breaks out in a while. As long as we surrender, the Gu family will not make things difficult for us."
"Really?" The young man was half-doubtful.
"Isn't it?" Second Uncle Jia and the young man slid the wooden oars and said, "But you have to work hard now, otherwise we will be whipped before we fall into the sea, and it will be uncomfortable if we really jump into the sea."
The boy nodded: "Understood, Second Uncle."
Sure enough, as Jia Er said, when the young man's voice fell from the unknown soldier, the whip came down, but it didn't hit the two of them.The soldier yelled at the boatman not far from the two of them: "There will be a war soon, if you dare to be lazy, slide hard for me!"
"Everyone, fuck|fuck me hard!"
The soldier is not an ordinary soldier, and he looks like a centurion in his clothes. At least the guy who survived the Qionger Strait should have some courage, but no one knows that the sweat behind him has soaked his underwear. Only the current bluff can Make him less nervous.Perhaps it was too oppressive below the deck, the centurion threw the whip to an ordinary soldier, and rushed to the deck by himself.
The situation on the deck seemed to be worse than that below the deck. The sailors were busy pulling the sail, but it seemed that the sail had been pulled over again, and the whole ship rammed straight into the ship beside it.
"Hold! Hold!"
"Pull one, two, three times!"
The sailors simply adjusted the angle of the sails, and the two warships that were about to collide widened the distance again.
"Damn, this lucky boat is really not easy to use." Said the sailor who took the lead in shouting just now.
"If it doesn't work, you have to use it. Who asked His Majesty to tell us to replace the old ships with new ones." Another sailor agreed with a dejected expression, but he added: "Don't worry, the sailors who know how to use Fu Chuan We are all on the front boat, we are relatively safe, just practice first, don't hit your own people."
"Dele."
Since sailors have this worry, let alone Zheng Qi, who is the admiral of the navy, he also went to the front line this time, but it was on the navy to the east of Jiutian. He originally thought that Gu Ruyang would They stormed Wu'an Port, so they arranged more elite troops on the east side, but Gu Ruyang retreated all the way south. Only four ships on the south side were equipped with soldiers who were familiar with Fuchuan. This surprised Zheng Qi, but he did not Don't worry, Gu Ruyang only has nine boats after all, and there are nearly a thousand boats in Wu'an Port alone, Gu Ruyang can't get in no matter what.
"Master Zheng, are you chasing him?" Zheng Qi's adjutant asked.
"Don't chase." Zheng Qi obviously knew that this chase fell into Gu Ruyang's trick.
"Then back to Hong Kong?"
"Don't go back to Hong Kong." Zheng Qi said: "It's just a waste of time, as long as they don't enter Hong Kong."
"But..." The adjutant hesitated: "But what if they run away?"
"Run away, just run away." Zheng Qi gritted his teeth, after all, Gu Ruyang has played with him twice, and he would be a fool if he ran after him.
Naturally, the movements of the Qi army were also clearly seen by the sea watchers in the Nine Heavens.
"Master, the Qi army from the east is not coming, and the Qi army from the north is also slowing down." The master said, as if he was still a little bit lost.
"It's okay." When Gu Ruyang heard that the other party stopped chasing him, he relaxed again: "If they don't chase us, we will chase them. Turn the boat around and hit me."
"Decree!" the master replied.
But I heard the man watching the sea from the south say: "Mr. He's boat is still eight nautical miles away."
Gu Ruyang suddenly looked behind him: "Where is Ruan Qiniang's boat? Has it landed?"
The sea watcher in the west immediately replied: "It's been almost an hour since they disappeared on the sea, so... don't they have to withdraw?"
"Then serve me wine and food." Gu Ruyang suddenly laughed: "Just Zheng Qi, he is still not as good as his father. He only has this sea in his eyes, but he forgets to look back. Whether to attack or defend, this Wu'an port will definitely be defeated today."
