"Boom boom boom..."

After the explosion, seven of the ten warships at the front were blown down, and the remaining three ships also had their sails blown off and lost power.

Xie Wen was frightened by the terrifying power of the bomb and immediately ordered the remaining twenty warships to retreat. However, Cheng Tianhu could not let go of such a good opportunity and immediately ordered the artillery battalion to continue the pursuit.

"Boom bang bang..."

"Boom boom boom..."

There were the firing of muskets, the explosion of bombs, and arrows flying randomly on the battlefield. The warships of Yue State were running in front, and the warships of Yan State were chasing after them.

Time passed little by little, and the artillery battalion's warships had caught up to the river near the Yue Kingdom. At this time, there were only five pitiful warships left in the Yue Kingdom, and the others were hit by bombs and sank to the bottom of the river.

"Brother Cheng, don't chase the poor bandits. Be careful that there is an ambush by the Yue Navy Navy. Let's rush to Jiangshui County as soon as possible to meet Brother Lin!"

Cheng Tianhu nodded, and then the Artillery Battalion's 100 warships began to turn around and continue heading towards Jiangshui County.

Yan Jun gave up the pursuit, and Xie Wen breathed a long sigh of relief. Still in shock, he quickly took the remaining five warships and sailed towards the building ship where Chen Shiheng and Xu Jin were.

A quarter of an hour later.

Xie Wen boarded the building ship and saw Chen Shiheng and Xu Jin. Xie Wen immediately knelt down on the deck without saying anything, "The general is incompetent and failed to complete the task. Please punish the captain and the general."

In the water battle just now, Xie Wen and his soldiers' performance could not be described as heroic. They had indeed tried their best in the face of Yan Jun's building ships and the fierce attacks from muskets and bombs.

Chen Shiheng quickly raised his hand, "General Xie, I saw it just now. Yan Jun's bombs are too powerful. It's normal that you can't defeat them. It's no wonder you. You go down first!"

"Yes, Lord Taiwei!"

Xie Wen immediately stood up, cupped his hands, turned around and walked off the ship.

Chen Shiheng looked at Xu Jin and said, "General Xu, Yan Jun did not use artillery in the water battle just now. What do you think of this?"

Xu Jin thought for a while and slowly said: "Master Taiwei, from what I know about Yan Jun's artillery, its attack accuracy is far inferior to that of muskets. The power of artillery is indeed terrifying when a large army is fighting on land. But once it is moved, Its power will be greatly reduced if it's on a warship."

"The artillery fires big iron balls, which will naturally damage our warships if they hit it, but its destructive power is far less than that of bombs. We only sent a mere thirty small warships in this test, even if Yan Jun used artillery , it is estimated that it will be difficult to hit our warship."

"The general believed that artillery can only exert its power in large-scale water battles. This is why Yan Jun did not use artillery."

Xu Jin's analysis was indeed very reasonable, and Chen Shiheng nodded immediately, "General Xu is right. According to the intelligence collected by Fengyu Tower, although the range of the artillery has reached a terrifying three hundred steps, its accuracy is indeed very high." Poor, so in the next water battle, our warships should be spread out as much as possible to reduce the chance of being hit by artillery. "

Xu Jin quickly raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, Lord Taiwei, I will keep this in mind."

Chen Shiheng nodded, "Judging from the situation of the battle just now, it is best for our warship not to get too close to Yan Jun's warship to avoid being attacked by bombs."

"Also, we can place some obstacles on the deck of the warship to resist the attack of Yan Jun's artillery, thus reducing the casualties of our army."

"In addition, we can also select a group of water warriors who are familiar with water-based warriors. When fighting Yan Jun, let them secretly sneak directly from the water to the bottom of Yan Jun's warship, and then drill through the bottom of the ship."

Xu Jin's eyes lit up and he quickly raised his hand, "Thank you, Mr. Taiwei, for the tip. We have many warriors who are familiar with water properties. I will organize them when I return."

Chen Shiheng nodded, "The artillery battalion's fleet will arrive at the naval port in Jiangshui County this afternoon. It is possible to launch an attack on Dai Viet early tomorrow morning. Your navy must be ready to fight at any time!"

"Don't worry, Lord Lieutenant. Our fifty thousand naval officers have already been prepared for battle. We will fight to the death to stop Yan's army from crossing the river. If we don't succeed, we will be punished."

"Okay! If General Xu has any requests, just ask them. The court will give priority to meeting the needs of your navy."

After Xu Jin witnessed the terrifying power of bombs with his own eyes, he began to lack confidence in defeating Yan Jun. As soon as Chen Shiheng said this, Xu Jin immediately thought that the weapons supervisor was also developing bombs.

His face suddenly became happy, and he quickly raised his hand, "Sir Taiwei, I wonder if the Ordnance Inspector has developed a bomb? If our navy has the help of bombs, we will be more confident in repelling Yan Jun's attack."

Speaking of bombs, Chen Shiheng's face darkened, "General Xu, the bomb is still under development. Once it is successfully developed, I will give priority to supplying it to your navy."

"Thank you, Lord Taiwei!"

Xu Jin's face darkened. Facing the powerful Yan army, the Yue navy was no match at all. It seems that I, Xu Jin, can only die to serve the country.

At midnight that day, one hundred warships from the Artillery Battalion, led by the Dayan Navy warships, began to sail into the naval port.

As soon as Cheng Tianhu and Xue Zhuo stepped off the warship, Navy General Li Ming stepped forward to greet them with a smile on his face, "General Cheng and General Xue have had a hard journey. Is the journey going well?"

Cheng Tianhu nodded, "It went smoothly. We met a group of thieves on the way and we sent them away."

Li Ming's expression changed, "Little thief?"

"General Li, our fleet encountered thirty Vietnamese warships near the mouth of the Nanjiang River. After a battle, we sank twenty-five warships, and the remaining five warships fled in panic. "Xue Zhuo said.

Li Ming thought about it carefully and understood, "Two generals, this should be a test by the Yue Navy. They want to find out our true and false intentions before the war begins."

Cheng Tianhu smiled and said, "Hahaha! Back in Fengyang City, even if the general didn't expect them to come, he still wanted to test our strength with thirty small boats? Let's just live up to their dreams!"

Since Lin Feng had anticipated all this, Li Ming was naturally relieved, "Two generals, King Xian is waiting at the Tianbingwei camp. Let's get there quickly!"

Cheng Tianhu and Xue Zhuo both raised their hands, "Then General Lao Li."

"You two generals, you're welcome. This way, please."

Two quarters of an hour later.

Cheng Tianhu and Xue Zhuo were led by Li Ming to the Tianbingwei camp. When they entered, they saw that the camp was filled with generals in armor. Miyahara Gaorui, Xiao Yang, and Zhao Xin were among them.

Cheng Tianhu and Xue Zhuo quickly stepped forward and cupped their hands, "General!"

Lin Feng nodded, "It's going well on the road!"

Cheng Tianhu bowed his hand again, "As expected by the general, we encountered a small group of Yue naval forces near the mouth of the Nanjiang River, and we have already repelled them."

"What are the casualties of our troops?"

"Back to General, in this water battle, forty-one of our troops were killed and 153 were injured. Twenty-five of the thirty warships of the Vietnamese army were sunk by bombs," Xue Zhuo said.

Lin Feng's expression changed slightly, "Give all the fallen soldiers a loving burial."

Cheng Tianhu and Xue Zhuo both raised their hands, "Yes, General!"

Lin Feng looked up at the generals in the camp and said loudly, "Generals, I have called you here to let you get to know each other. Tomorrow morning the army will officially launch an attack on the Yue Kingdom. Everyone, please prepare to go. !”

"Yes, Wise King!"

All the lieutenants bowed their hands, turned and left the camp...
