Chapter 279 A stroke of good luck has arrived
Rumble...
Standing on the deck, Lü Xiao felt his feet shaking violently, as if an earthquake was occurring.
He had to steady himself and maintain his stance.
"They're trying to sink us."
Yu Juluo also sensed the other party's intention, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but speak.
"General, what's the difference between naval warfare and land warfare?"
Upon hearing Lü Xiao's words, Yu Juluo was immediately stunned, opened his mouth, and was speechless for a moment.
He didn't know what the difference was; he had fought most of his life on land and on horseback.
Fighting on the water was a first for him, like a young woman getting married in a sedan chair.
Since it's all about fighting with weapons, hacking and killing people, it should be... about the same, right?
"Be careful not to fall into the water."
That was all Yu Julu could say.
"I think... I can't swim."
Lu Xiao was silent for a moment before speaking slowly.
He's learning now, but he doesn't know if it's too late.
"Let me tell you a secret!"
Yu Julu patted his chest, looking very serious.
"Old General, please tell me quickly!"
Upon hearing that there was a key to it, Lü Xiao immediately became excited, his eyes lighting up.
Why didn't you say so earlier? He could have just taken off already.
"Just do it! Don't be a coward!"
Yu Juluo has spent his entire life on horseback, galloping on horseback, and has hardly ever fought a battle on a ship.
The key points were also made up on the spot, learned and applied immediately.
"good!"
Upon hearing this, what else could Lü Xiao say?
He gritted his teeth and immediately leaped up, jumping from the large ship towards the enemy vessel, his movements as swift as lightning.
"Remember to remove your nail polish..."
Yu Juluo watched as Lü Xiao flew away, still having many things left to say, the words on the tip of his tongue, yet he hadn't finished speaking.
The premise of being able to do this is to not use heavy weapons or wear heavy armor.
Otherwise, if it falls into the water, it will sink immediately.
However, before he could finish speaking, Lü Xiao had vanished.
"This kid has such a quick temper."
As Yu Juluo spoke, he hurriedly ordered his men to remove their armor, taking off the heavy armor, and then jumped off the boat.
He was an excellent swimmer and went specifically to find Lü Xiao.
If Lü Xiao falls into the water, he must immediately go down to rescue him and prevent him from drowning.
Lu Xiao, who jumped off the warship, remembered Yu Juluo's advice.
Just do it, don't be a coward!
As he killed the enemy, his invincible halberd slashed downwards with tremendous force, splitting Mount Hua in two.
Even larger warships, he would chisel holes in them and sink them.
With one strike, a large hole appeared in the bottom of the boat, and the river water poured in.
He scuttled one warship and immediately moved on to the next, without stopping.
Li Jing, who was commanding the naval battle, stood on the flagship and watched this scene. His lips twitched incessantly, and his eyes also twitched.
He had thought that naval warfare would be more troublesome, require more effort, and necessitate more tactical considerations.
In retrospect, it's not much different from land warfare.
In short, he only needed to say a few words, and Lü Xiao could solve all his troubles without him having to worry about anything.
"Your Highness! Quickly, get on this small boat! We're going to board that big one!"
Yuwen Chenglong stood on a small boat and shouted at Lü Xiao, who was furiously scuttling at the warship and getting carried away with the battle, pointing to the largest enemy ship in the distance.
"good!"
Once Lü Xiao identified his target, he exerted force with his feet, and the warship seemed to become his stepping stone.
He jumped up one after another, as nimbly as a dragonfly skimming the water.
Yu Juluo, though old, was still vigorous and followed closely behind.
He was genuinely afraid that Lü Xiao might slip and fall headfirst into the water if he didn't jump properly.
"General, you're right! This naval battle really is about fighting head-on, don't back down!"
Standing on the flatboat, Lü Xiao could hardly contain his excitement, his eyes gleaming.
Fighting on the water is much more fun than fighting on land; it has a unique flavor.
With a single blow, the ship was ripped dry and leaked.
Then he would jump to the next one and continue digging, enjoying it immensely.
"That's natural..."
Yu Juluo wiped the water off his face and said guiltily.
He was just making it up, but unexpectedly, it seemed to work quite well; it was a lucky accident.
Under the cover of Sui army ships, Lü Xiao charged left and right as if entering an empty field, and soon boarded the enemy's largest warship and landed steadily.
Lei Shimeng and Dong Jingzhen, who were originally on the large ship, had already abandoned ship and fled, and their whereabouts were unknown.
They practiced so many battles on the river, rehearsing countless tactics.
But no one expected that Lü Xiao would play like this, playing by his own rules.
A single halberd sank countless ships; it was utterly unstoppable.
"Jackie Chan, take the boat and ram it straight into that water fortress!"
After boarding the ship, Lü Xiao did not cause any damage, but instead issued new orders.
"good!"
Yuwen Chenglong and his men quickly dispatched the enemy guards on the ship, killing some and forcing others to surrender.
Then he ordered the other side to turn their ship around and change course.
Soon, the large ship charged towards Xiao Xian's water fortress, riding the wind and waves with unstoppable momentum.
"Brothers! Charge straight at them!"
Li Jing was not to be outdone, ordering all his warships to follow closely behind, like a pack of wolves.
Once ashore and on land, Lü Xiao's role and the advantages of the Red Falcon Army can be brought into full play.
This kind of reckless, all-out war for wealth is truly exhilarating to fight.
He considered these warships as disposable and didn't want them!
Inside the water fortress, Xiao Xian, accompanied by a group of generals and personal guards, appeared on the high tower.
He had heard that a battle was taking place on the Yangtze River today, so he came here specifically to boost morale and see how the battle was going.
"Your Majesty, what brings you here?"
Dong Jingzhen was quite surprised and flustered when she saw Xiao Xian.
"Let me come and see how the battle is going?"
As Xiao Xian spoke, he climbed the tower and looked out into the distance.
He followed the gaze and saw the ship bearing the Xiao flag slowly sailing towards them.
The ship was enormous and imposing.
"Are these our ships? Have our people returned?"
Pointing to the large ship in the distance, Xiao Xian asked.
"That's possible... right?"
Dong Jingzhen stammered, also extremely puzzled, her heart pounding with anxiety.
He abandoned ship and fled early on, escaping back to the water fortress in a panic. He really didn't know the specifics of the situation or how the ship got back.
Perhaps the people above, seeing that the situation was not right, also took the initiative to return to the water village?
"Come, follow me to take a look."
Xiao Xian descended from the tower, led his men to open the gate of the stockade, boarded a small boat, and prepared to go and meet his soldiers.
However, to his surprise...
Under his command, the large ship did not stop; instead, its speed increased.
And it was heading his way, like a wild horse that had broken free, impossible to stop.
"Stop! Stop now!"
Dong Jingzhen's face changed drastically, and she shouted at the top of her lungs, waving her hands.
However, the people on the ship completely ignored him.
The large ship, like a moving mountain, crashed straight into us.
