Chapter 479: Fighting the Horse at Sea

"An enemy ship is coming again?"

Huang Shijun was quite surprised.

It seems that the Tartars' maritime transportation is very frequent! There are so many materials to be transported to Dengzhou City by sea, and the Hu Ben Navy stops it here. If you don't get a share of the pie, wouldn't you be sorry to the Tartars?

"Go up!"

Huang Shijun said without hesitation.

Having experienced dealing with the Tartars just now, the only tension that some sailors had in their hearts disappeared. According to legend, the Tartars were very cruel and fearless. But judging from the previous battles, the Tartars were actually not scary at all! In fact, the Tartars were indeed not very good on the boat. It was good to be able to stand firm. With a little tossing, they would be seasick. Perhaps they were indeed a bit scary on land, and they were soft-legged crabs on the ocean.

The Cangshan ship turned its course and rushed directly to the north. Soon, a large lucky ship appeared in Huang Shijun's Qianli Mile Mile Mile. This was a No. 3 lucky ship, several times larger than the small Cangshan ship. The No. 3 lucky ship seemed to be unfast in sailing, and it should be full of supplies. Because the distance was too far, the details could not be seen clearly for the time being.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

The Si Shao Ling on the mast suddenly blew the conch.

The sound of the conch means that the ship is in danger, and everyone is immediately alert.

"It's the Tartar fleet!"

“There are three ships in total!”

After a moment, Ling Si Shao's voice came down.

Huang Shijun and Wang Chenglin hurriedly moved the Qianli Mile Mile Mile and carefully searched the sea surface. Sure enough, two more lucky ships appeared behind the No. 3 lucky ship. In this way, a total of three lucky ships appeared slowly on the northern sea surface.

"No cannons!"

Mr. Ling Si shouted quickly.

Without cannons, it is a pure transport ship.

It's strange that Huang Shijun and the others encountered all transport ships, except for the Tartars who were escorting the ships, there was no other armed force. There was no cannon. In the eyes of the Hu Ben Navy, these transport ships were completely nothing! They were just waiting for the Hu Ben Navy to arrive and be slaughtered!

However, in Huang Shijun's opinion, such a thing is not surprising at all. If they encounter the Tartars' gun boats, it would be strange. The Tartars had just controlled the Dengzhou navy, of course they would not let the gun boats run everywhere. What if they couldn't control it? Besides, there was no enemy in this section of the sea, so why did the Tartars use gun boats to cruise everywhere? Who would have thought that the Tiger Army Navy would come to loot from such a distance?

Even if Dorgon was a genius, he would not have thought of this! As for Duoduo, he would have thought of it even more. The only potential enemy they might think of was the Tianjin Navy. However, for the Tianjin Navy, it was not the arrogant Tatars, but it was really a courageous thing for the Tianjin Navy to take the initiative to provoke the Tatars.

The Tianjin Navy itself has few warships that can really fight. Huang Shijun knows the foundation of the Tianjin Navy. He does not need more warships, but only three fleets of the Tiger Ben Army Navy that are currently out to perform missions can completely destroy the Tianjin Navy.

To the east of this sea area, there is a Korean navy, which is the army brought out by Lee Sun-sin. After Lee Sun-sin died, the size of the Korean navy was relatively large. There were several legendary turtle ships. However, North Korea is now a vassal state of the Great Jin Kingdom and an allied army, so the Korean navy will not make trouble.

"nice one!"

"nice one!"

"nice one!"

Young Master Ling suddenly screamed excitedly again.

In order to see more clearly, he stood on the top of the mast. At that time, there were no seat belts, towers, hanging buckets, etc., and they were purely relying on their own skills to stand on the crossbar. If they fell down, they would definitely fall into a ball of meat sauce. Although the mast of the Cangshan boat was not particularly high, it was at least ten meters away.

Wang Chenglin said curiously: "The fourth brother, what good thing is it?"

While observing the movements of the enemy ship, Mr. Ling repeated shouting: "Good stuff! Good stuff! Good stuff!"

Wang Chenglin was itchy and couldn't help but curse: "What good thing? Tell me!"

Young Master Ling Si observed carefully for a moment before saying affirmatively: "It's a war horse! It's a war horse! There are dense war horses on the deck!"

"War Horse!"

Huang Shijun and Wang Chenglin were both shocked.

What happened to the Tartars transported was actually war horses?

Damn, this time it's going to be developed!

"That's right, it's a war horse!"

“There are so many war horses on the deck!”

"You see it yourself! There are so many war horses!"

Ling Si Shao's voice was so excited that he seemed to be about to explode.

When Huang Shijun and others heard this, their blood was boiling. They hurriedly stood on tiptoe, held the Mile Mile Mile Mile, opened their eyes wide, and carefully observed the movements of the enemy ship. If it was really a war horse, they would be really developed. Even if the number of war horses was not large, they would be much more valuable than the ship of arrows and miscellaneous items just now. What's more, Ling Si Shao said it was "many, many" war horses.

"It's really a war horse!"

"It's really a war horse!"

After a while, Huang Shijun and Wang Chenglin both screamed in surprise.

It turned out that they all saw clearly that there were indeed a large number of war horses on the decks of the Tartar boats. These war horses were fenced with temporary fences. It is impossible to estimate the number, at least a dozen. Maybe there are still cabins below. If there are really war horses below, a Tartar boat may have twenty or thirty war horses.

Developed!

This time it is really developed!

“We are developed!”

Wang Chenglin called out without any concealment.

What is the most lacking in the Hu Ben Army now? War horses are definitely one of them!

If it were ordinary materials, the Hu Ben Army was really not very rare. The Hu Ben Army could not use the weapons, equipment, armor, etc. Even if it was seized, it would be sent back to the furnace in the end. Some were not even worth returning to the furnace. For example, even if the Hu Ben Army seized the 100,000 arrows, it would be useless.

Only this war horse is what the Hu Ben Army needs most! The Shandong region does not produce horses, and the Hu Ben Army itself cannot raise war horses, so it must plunder or buy them from outside. However, whether it is Liaodong or Mongolian grassland, it is quite far from the Hu Ben Army. It is not easy for the Hu Ben Army to plunder or buy them. Zhang Zhun was already very excited to grab two thousand war horses from Zhu Dadian.

Unexpectedly, the Tartars would actually use boats to transport war horses... Hehe, this is completely nonsense... Liaodong and Dengzhou City faced across the sea, so the Tartars could not ride horses. Their war horses must be transported by boat. Calculated according to the number of war horses of a Tartar, it is said that there are thousands of Tartars in Dengzhou City, that is, there are thousands of war horses that need to be transported... If all these war horses can be snatched up... Huang Shijun and Wang Chenglin couldn't help but rub their palms hard.

Such a good thing is really not easy to encounter.

Thousands of war horses! With thousands of war horses, the Hu Ben Army can form a cavalry of thousands! Even if they chop them face to face with the Tartars, they will not be at a disadvantage! Of course, it is not easy to grab all these thousands of war horses. Of course, the Tartars know what it means once these war horses fall into the hands of the Tiger Army. They will definitely fight to the death.

Huang Shijun made up his mind without thinking and must snatch all these war horses. It is rare to encounter such a good thing. If you don’t do a big vote, you will definitely be sorry for the Tartars who delivered the goods to your door! The Hu Ben Army came around the Imperial City Island this time and the harvest was indeed too rich. In less than half a day, they intercepted two groups of Tartars’ transport ships in succession.

"Brothers from Shengxia Sect, come here!"

"Let's discuss how to grab all the Tartars' war horses!"

Huang Shijun rubbed his hands hard and shouted excitedly.

So many war horses were right in front of him, as if they were at your fingertips. But Huang Shijun quickly calmed down. He found that it would take some skill to snatch these war horses intact. Since there were so many war horses on the Tartar boat, there might be a large number of Tartars. This means that he had to change his fighting style. If he kept firing fire, the Tartars would certainly be killed, but the war horses would probably be killed. Therefore, other solutions must be considered.

Huang Shijun decided to gather his thoughts and make a concerted effort. Everyone should work together. Everyone should find the best solution to the problem. To do this, we naturally have to rely on the brothers of Shengxia Sect. Zhang Zhun has regulations. When encountering major problems, the military chief should fully listen to the opinions of the soldiers, especially the opinions of the members of Shengxia Sect.

Soon, except for Young Master Ling Si continued to observe the enemy situation on the mast, other members of the Shengxia Sect gathered below the mast. Young Master Ling Si could also hear the people at the meeting below on the mast, which was considered to be the same attendance.

There are twenty-five sailors above each Cangshan boat. According to regulations, more than 20% of the sailors are members of the Shengxia Sect. On Huang Shijun's ship, there are six members of the Shengxia Sect. On the Marine Corps, the proportion of the members of the Shengxia Sect is higher than that of the sailors. Gao Yu, Zhang Yin, and two other soldiers are also members of the Shengxia Sect. Everyone gathered together, and there were a total of ten people.

The team leader of the Shengxia Zong group was not Huang Shijun, Ling Si Shao, Wang Chenglin, but Han Xuezhong, known as Lao Hantou. Lao Hantou is just an ordinary sailor, responsible for the maintenance of the steering wheel and has no official position. However, he is old, honest and reliable, and treats people generously. He has been in charge of Shengxia Zong for a long time, so he became the team leader.

After the staff arrived, Huang Shijun couldn't wait to say, "Old Han, I'll talk first?"

The old Hantou said with a smile: "You talk first."

Huang Shijun nodded, clenched his fists hard, and said excitedly: "Okay, let me talk first. We all know that the army is short of horses and have been trying to increase the number of war horses in the army. Now, there are a lot of war horses on the enemy ships. I suggest that we not only annihilate all these Tartars, but also grab as many war horses as possible. The three Tartar boats are estimated to have hundreds of war horses. If we grab all of them, the results will definitely be great and we will not make less contributions to the army."

The old Hantou said with a smile: "I agree. The governor lacks nothing, just lacks war horses."

Gao Yu thoughtfully said, "Then... you can't fire it casually, otherwise you will kill all the war horses."

Zhang Yin also said, "You can't fire. Otherwise, your grape bullets and chain bullets will fall down all the time, and any horse will be ruined."

Wang Chenglin said with some concern: "We don't fire the gun... The problem is not big. The key is, can you twelve people solve the Tartars on the boat?"

Gao Yu and Zhang Yin looked at each other and felt a little embarrassed. Their number was too small, with only twelve people. It was not a big problem to deal with the Tartars on one boat, but they were a little too busy to deal with the Tartars on three boats at the same time. If the distance was close, the Tartars’ arrows were quite powerful.

Zhang Yin shook his head helplessly and said, "Three ships are a bit difficult."

The old Hantou smiled and said, "The Tartars have three boats, and we have more than one boat!"

Wang Chenglin nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, we have a large number of companions on the nearby sea. As long as we can come to help, we can eat all the Tartar boats."

Gao Yu said affirmatively: "If we deal with a ship, we will be fine."

Zhang Yin also said affirmatively: "A ship, no problem!"

Huang Shijun nodded and said, "Since that's the case, we will find a way to entangle the Tartar boats, try our best to get time, and let other warships come over. If the warships around us hear the sound of cannons, they will come over to support them."

Gao Yu said with some concern: "If the Tartar boats escape separately..."

Huang Shijun frowned. He only had one boat, and if three Tartar boats escaped separately, it would be a bit troublesome. A Cangshan boat could not be divided into three parts, right? At most, it would be to catch a Tartar boat. When one Tartar boat was solved, the other two Tartar boats would definitely have disappeared without a trace.

The others looked at me and I looked at you and felt a little trouble. As long as the Tartars were not fools, they would definitely find a way to escape after being attacked. There were three Tartar boats, but it would be a pity if they only caught one. War horses and war horses, everyone wanted to grab all the war horses. It would be a pity to let two Tartar boats escape.

At this time, the old Hantou smiled again and said, "I have a suggestion. Do you think it is feasible? Have you driven the flock of sheep? When driving the sheep, you will start from outside and drive the flock into the sheep pen. Our sheep pen is near the Imperial City Island. Therefore, we must drive the Tartar warships towards the Imperial City Island."
