For the Fatty Army, the most difficult thing was the water battlefield north of the Jiujiang Water Gate, because the strength of the Fatty Army Navy and the Qing Army Navy was too great.
The navy of the Qing army has more than 200 large warships and thousands of light boats and small boats, most of which are newly built fast boats. They are well-equipped and skilled, with more than 10,000 soldiers; The navy led by the traitor Li Guodong only has more than 50 warships of different models, new and old, of which 16 are old-fashioned warships brought by the traitor Li Guodong when he donated Yuezhou to the old traitor Wu. They are almost at the age of Fatty Lu, and there are only about 4,000 soldiers, two-thirds of which are composed of surrendered troops from the Qing army and infantry soldiers from the Wu army. One can imagine.
Therefore, even though Han Daren, Li Tianzhi and other generals had already lured a large number of Qing army warships to the water gate to attack with infantry under the ingenious arrangement of Lu Fatty, sinking and capturing many Qing army warships, Line Yuer The artillery team of the Wu army under the command also sank and damaged some of the Qing army's warships, but the strength of the remaining navy of the Qing army was still higher than that of the Wu army's navy commanded by Li Guodong. So even when the decisive battle in northern Jiangxi came to an end, the Fatty Army had already secured its victory, and the Fatty Army Navy under the command of traitor Li Guodong was still helpless with the remaining Qing Army Navy, let alone wiped out the enemy. If you can avoid big losses in the water battle, you are already Amitabha.
Although there is a great disparity in power, Li Guodong's reputation as a traitor is not in vain, and even his descendants will follow Shi Dakai to fight against the Qing Dynasty. Leading the Wu Jun navy into the Daqingshui Division brigade, and started a hand-to-hand battle with the Daqingshui Division. While killing the officers and men of the Daqingshui Division frantically, he sent his son Li Jiyang to contact the Jiujiang Fort to let the Wu Jun artillery continue to fire and continue to bombard the already The Daqingshui division who got into a mess with Wu Jun's navy!
The self-army is already mixed with the enemy, and the self-army artillery is still firing at the battlefield. Li Guodong's tactics are so crazy that even Lin Yu'er was taken aback. She opened her beautiful big eyes and shouted at Li Guodong's son Li Jiyang : "Is your father crazy? Our fleet is mixed with the fleet of Mangou, and I still want to continue firing? What if we hit our own warship?!"
"Miss Line, please rest assured that my father is ready to die for the country." Li Jiyang replied with his chest out: "Mangou still has more than 100 warships, including 60 to 70 gunboats. The division has only fifty or so variegated warships, most of which are old warships, with few troops and slow speed, they are no match for the Mangou navy! Mangou has been paying attention to guarding against our suicide sampans, thousands of The small boat is entangled with our small boat, and the suicide sampan can't be dispatched at all. If we continue to fight like this, our navy will undoubtedly lose. The only way to turn defeat into victory is to cover the battlefield with artillery fire, completely destroying the morale and fighting spirit of the full dog sailor , we sailors have a chance!"
Line Yu'er continued to be dumbfounded. After watching for a long time, he found that Li Jiyang didn't seem to be joking, so he shook his head and refused: "No, I can't do this. I can't let the artillery hit my own people."
"Miss Line, if you fire the cannon, my father and the last general may not be able to come back, but there is still hope. If you don't fire the cannon, my father and the last general are no match for Man Gou, and they will never come back." Li Jiyang replied in a deep voice. , took out a piece of letter paper written in blood from his bosom, held it in front of Line Yuer with both hands, and said solemnly: "Miss Line, this is my father's suicide note written with his own blood, and it is for the prince. If my father and the general return home If you don¡¯t come, please ask Miss Line to forward it to the prince on behalf of my father.¡±
Looking at Li Guodong's bloody letter, Line Yu'er's lips trembled, and she nodded after a long while. She tremblingly took Li Guodong's suicide note and put it away solemnly. Putting down the fort by himself, jumping on the self-armed warship waiting by the river, set sail, and rushed to the fierce battle on the water without hesitation. Line Yu'er issued an order tremblingly, "Order the forts everywhere, aim at the battlefield on the water, and fire!" Before he finished speaking, Line Yu'er was already in tears.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Wu Jun's fort, which had been silent for a while, roared again, pouring row after row of blooming shells onto the distant river battlefield, and onto the naval battlefield where the enemy and us were intertwined. The flying closeboard warships bombarded the bows of the naval warships of the Wu army and the Qing army, and immediately exploded everywhere on the battlefield, with fire and water spraying into the sky, broken masts of flags flying all over the sky, and screams and screams everywhere.
Before the hand-to-hand combat started, the traitor Li Guodong had already informed the ships of his own army of his decision, so the generals of the Wu army had already been mentally prepared for this, and they just rushed madly, desperately jumping on the enemy's warship to kill and seize the ship. , Throw alcohol incendiary bombs and burn enemy ships. The Qing army is in complete chaos, and countless soldiers and generals of the Qing army are hysterical.The little ones said goodbye. Seeing Han Daren leading Itanbu away, Li Ya, who was very winking, hurriedly led a few veterans of the Wu army to leave. Fatty Lu nodded his head in agreement, and then suddenly his heart moved, and he shouted: "Wait a minute. "
The veterans of the Wu army were stunned, and hurriedly stood still. Fatty Lu smiled and said, "Leave Li Ya, the others go down and wait for rewards." Ya waited inexplicably in place.
"Li Ya, if I remember correctly, last time I asked Brother Dajie to find a clever person to punish Kong Sizhen, it seems to be you?" Fatty Lu asked.
Li Ya nodded and admitted, and Gao Hongchen next to him interrupted with a smile: "The general remembers correctly, this kid is as smart as a crystal monkey, so he was cheated last time against Kong Sizhen and this time against Itanbu."
"Very good. I'm just worried that I can't find a smart and capable person to help me with a big event." Fatty Lu was overjoyed, and he lifted the felt hat on Li Ya's head himself, and found that his hair was quite long, tied with a False braids are definitely not a problem, and I couldn't help but feel even more happy, so I asked, "Li Ya, this general has an errand for you that requires brainstorming, it's dangerous, do you dare to go?"
"I ask the general to give you instructions, the villain dare not obey." Li Ya agreed loudly, and then asked tentatively: "General, what kind of errand would make you say it's dangerous?"
"I have a friend. I saved his life, but I just don't know if he still misses me." Fatty Lu replied, "So I want to send a shrewd person to deliver a letter to him." Letter, test him."
