Vol 4 Chapter 4002: walk through the guards

.
Liu Daogui looked calm, and said: "We don't need too many warships to besiege the enemy's giant ships, even, we don't need Huanglong warships to do such a thing. I have just said that attacking the enemy's giant ships relies on advancing from the side. And then throwing pheasant tail torches on the side of the enemy ship, so the one word that needs to be emphasized is fast, and if there is another word that needs to be added, it is small.

Lu Zongzhi frowned: "It's understandable to be fast, but what is the purpose of this small word? Isn't the bigger the better in water warfare?"
Liu Daogui waved his hand: "The eight giant warships are too big and too tall. If it is the size of the Huanglong warship, the enemy can be seen at a glance and then they can use long-range weapons to attack our warships from a distance, just like Commander Cai said. Yes, before approaching the enemy's giant ship, I am afraid that dozens of warships will be lost in vain on the attack route. We must try our best to avoid this kind of loss."
Speaking of this, Liu Daogui looked at Cai Lunzhi: "If I remember correctly, on the Huanglong warship we built this time, each warship also brought two to three fast boats, right?"
Cai Lunzhi nodded: "Yes, the draft of these fast boats is very shallow, each boat can only accommodate more than ten people, and there are no sails or masts, and only eight to ten oarsmen are needed. Once rowing in the river, the speed will be very fast when the current is flowing. This is a small boat specially used when the warship is in danger and you want to abandon the boat to escape. When I evacuated from Huanchu's warship, I used this kind of walking boat to escape of."
Liu Daogui nodded: "It's just that this kind of walking boat has almost no combat capability. Once the enemy jumps on it and lands, it's over, right?"
Cai Lunzhi smiled and said: "That's right. This kind of boat is for escape. It's not for fighting. As long as people jump on the boat, they are basically waiting to die. It depends on the shallow draft and more oarsmen. Large and medium warships leave the battlefield faster."
Speaking of this, he paused: "When Huan Xuan was still there, he placed seven or eight of these small boats just behind his flagship, but they were not used to evacuate civil and military officials or soldiers, but in these The boat was full of calligraphy and paintings, he said, these calligraphy and paintings are rare treasures, the soldiers are fierce and dangerous, even if the battle is unfavorable, these calligraphy and paintings cannot be destroyed in the fire, so they should be put on the boat and evacuated at any time."
Liu Zunkao laughed: "It's no wonder that Huanxuan later betrayed his relatives. No one under his command can bear it. He regards a few calligraphy and paintings as more important than the lives of living people. Brother Jinu is the first to charge in every battle. Huan Xuan wanted to run for his life before he was attacked, and he was only running for his own life, he brought calligraphy and paintings with him, and did not bring soldiers, it is his luck that he did not mutiny."
Cai Lunzhi nodded: "Yes, so after He Tanzhi's defeat in that battle, I didn't serve Huanxuan anymore, because I knew that Huanxuan would lose if the hearts of the people were scattered. However, for more than half a year, I have supervised The Huanglong warships built were built according to the standards of the Chu army's navy back then. Each warship carried three walking boats, in order to save the lives of the wounded and important generals in unfavorable times. , Are you going to use these walkers to attack the enemy's giant ships?"
Liu Daogui nodded: "Yes, these ships run fast. If they were dropped when the Huanglong warships were leaving the battlefield, the enemy would think that these were fleeing ships, and they would be less likely to abandon the Huanglong warships and attack them. You may have the opportunity to use these walkers to assault the enemy's giant ships, Commander Cai, in your opinion, how sure is our assault?"
Cai Lunzhi said thoughtfully: "If you are directly facing the giant ship, then it is not a big problem. The giant ship moves slowly, and its speed is far inferior to these walkers, and the ballistas and trebuchets on its deck are very powerful for hitting such a huge ship. It’s hard to hit a small target, but if there are dozens of enemy warships guarding in front of the giant ship, it’s difficult to get close to the enemy’s giant ship even by walking.

Liu Daogui frowned: "Can I ignore these warships and just rush through the gaps, heading straight for the giant enemy ships?"
Cai Lunzhi sighed: "I'm afraid it will not be easy. Although the giant ship is too high, it is difficult to hit this small ship with a racket from several decks, but the warships, such as the Yellow Dragon Ship or smaller The No. 1 Mengchong boat can use long poles and harpoons to attack the walking boats passing by on the side. If we use pheasant tail torches to attack these front warships of the enemy, it will
It will expose our tactical intentions, and the enemy giant ships will definitely command their surroundings desperately.
.
If the surrounding warships stepped forward to stop them, they could even lay down a large number of fishing nets and iron locks in front, and put down the small walking boats they carried to stop them. "
Liu Daogui gritted his teeth: "Is there any other way to mobilize these warships in front of the enemy, or form a melee with them, so as to prevent them from blocking and taking away the warships?"
Cai Lunzhi said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid that our army has to mobilize the water ghost team, go down the river ahead of time, and then touch the enemy's warship to fight. Moreover, such an attack must be done in the dark, if it is in broad daylight Next, the enemy army will definitely be on guard when they see hundreds of small boats from our side rushing towards their giant ship."
Tan Daoji said in a deep voice: "I think it is also possible to let some Huanglong warships pretend that they are too late to catch up with the breakout fleet, turn around and flee in another direction~EbookFREE.me~ This may separate some enemy troops Escort warships chase, or even go boats, you can also deliberately sacrifice some, pretending to be in a panic, so that the enemy's ships can capture them, so that the evil thief's ships want to make meritorious deeds to capture the enemy ships, Maybe we will break away from the formation and come to pursue, as long as there is a gap in the enemy's formation, then we will have a chance to charge past."
Liu Daogui nodded: "Yes, you can also let some brothers from the Water Ghost Squad pretend to panic and jump off the ship, but sink at the bottom of the water. When they see the signal, they will dive back to the ship and directly attack the enemy's giant ship. During the battle, the enemy would not be interested in paying attention to the empty ships floating on the river, and return to make a surprise attack when the enemy ships are gone. However, Commander Cai, as you said before, the enemy also has a large number of water ghosts. If they If all the water ghosts come out and our army's sailors are found, how can we crack it?"
Cai Lunzhi shook his head: "I can't think of a way to crack this. I can only resign myself to fate. I hope God will favor me. Maybe the enemy's water ghosts must protect the giant ship and cannot leave easily. This will give our army a chance. If If you want to be more stable, we can let our water ghost army send out capable underwater scouts to scout the situation in the water, find out that there are not many water ghosts underwater, and then notify the attack."
