Shen Wansan hiding his fleet in Chaohu was a good choice.
Chaohu Lake's water flow was complex and suitable for hiding. At the same time, it was not far from the imperial court's naval stronghold in Caishiji and could be reached in a day.
This brother-in-law was quite capable.
"Have you informed them?" Zhu Wu asked again.
"Yesterday, we sent a messenger pigeon. If there are no accidents, we should be able to reach Caishi Peak around this time.”
"Good!" Zhu Wu praised loudly and looked at the cavalry behind him." Brothers, we will be safe only after we take down the navy soldiers of the Caishiji court. When the time comes, I will treat everyone to wine and meat to celebrate for our brothers!”
"Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng!"
The morale of the Black Flag Army soldiers was high.
After taking down Caishiji's navy, the Yangtze River would truly become a natural moat for the imperial court. Zhu Wu would then be able to conquer Jiangnan with peace of mind.
Before he left, Zhu Wu gave another order," Guo Xing, Guo Ying, bring the city guards to see Zhu Yi. You will take over the captives of the Jiangnan camp. Let Zhu Yi lead the troops to Dangtu and take this city first.”
Dangtu City was located between Caishiji and Jinling, and its location was very important. In order to catch the soldiers off guard, Zhu Wu would choose to go around it, but this city still had to be taken down.
Right now, the only one under him who could take charge of an area was Zhu Yi. Guo Xing and Guo Ying had potential, but they still needed to be trained.
Zhu Yi was the earliest soldier he had recruited. Over the years, he had been forced by Zhu Wu to read a lot of military books. He had sufficient experience in leading troops and could be considered to have gained some experience.
"Um, Brother Xiao Jiu, can I go to Dangtu with Zhu Yi?”Guo Ying asked with a thick face," My brother has already made a contribution. I want to make a contribution too."”
Zhu Wu thought about it and nodded.
Guo Ying was overjoyed.
Guo Xing actually wanted to go to war, but he knew that he needed to lead the city guards to protect Jinling. It was a heavy responsibility, so he did not say anything.
After giving his orders, Zhu Wu left with the cavalry.
After taking down the Jiangnan camp, they seized more than 2,000 warhorses. The 2,000 warhorses were mounted by a person and two horses. The person rested on the horse's back as they galloped.
Fortunately, the soldiers produced by the system were all all-rounded soldiers. Their horsemanship was not inferior to that of the Mongolians, and it was not a problem for them to take a nap on horseback.
Zhu Wu didn't need to rest. He was full of energy now. He felt like there was a fire burning in his chest, and his mind was extremely clear!
After laying low for seven years, it was finally time for him to show off his ambitions. Once he took down the entire Jiangnan, he would have the confidence to be the king.
Ambition could no longer be contained and grew wildly.
In the past, he would occasionally hesitate between seizing the world and helping his third brother seize it.
Right now, he only had one thought in his mind--
In the middle of the river, a fleet of several hundred ships was setting off for the Caishi Rocky.
This fleet was Zhu Wu's navy.
In order to support his brother-in-law, Shen Wansan had taken out all of his assets.
Yu Tingyu stood on a ship in the middle of the navy, facing the wind. His eyes were shining as he looked at the river.
Beside him was a valiant man who was equipped with two sabers. His name was Zhao Pusheng.
These two were once famous pirates on the Yangtze River. They were recruited by Zhu Wu two years ago and had been training the navy for Zhu Wu.
This time, the Internet Water Army had come out in full force. They did not need to hide their identities anymore. Both of them were full of energy.
"Old Yu, we have to fight this battle beautifully. I heard that the lord wants to take Jinling. If we end the battle early, we might be able to make another great contribution to Jinling City!”
Zhao Pusheng patted his saber and said.
Yu Tingyu pressed her hand on the railing, her cloak flapping in the strong wind.
He smiled and said," You're right. This is the first battle of our Internet Water Army. We must fight beautifully." If we take Caishiji, we can help our lord cut off Jin Ling city's support, and then we can go to Jin Ling city to join in the fun.”
"Hehe, I think our navy will definitely win today. Look, even the wind is helping us.”Zhao Pusheng said.
"It's indeed a good wind!" Yu Tingyu said.
…………
"This damn wind!"
On the river, Yu Tingyu was cursing the damn weather on the flagship.
They had been fine just now and had a smooth journey. Unexpectedly, when they reached the Caishiji River, the wind suddenly changed direction. The Black Flag Army could only rush towards Caishiji against the wind. The fast boats carrying soldiers at the front were even slower.
The soldiers on the other side of the river discovered the fleet on the river.
Clang! Clang!
The alarm rang.
A hysterical roar sounded." Thieves! Thieves are attacking!"
Baiyintibu, the general of Caishiji, was awakened from his sleep. He didn't bother to put on his armor and climbed to a higher place. On the river, he saw a dense fleet of navy ships as the vanguard, and a huge turreted ship as the central army. Together with countless warships, they charged over like Mount Tai.
Damn it!
How could it be at this time?
No wonder Baiyintibu complained.
Just yesterday, Caishiji's navy had left the water stronghold and headed to Huaixi to deliver supplies to the army attacking Haozhou.
Zhu Wu did not expect such a coincidence.
It could only be said that even the heavens were helping him.
Seeing that they couldn't hide it anymore, the Black Flag Army's ships lit up with torches. Deafening shouts came from the river surface.
"Kill the Tartars!"
"Brothers, go!"
Baiyintibu smashed his fist and could not help but curse,""Bastards, if the imperial court's navy hadn't left, how could we allow you to be so arrogant?”
While he was cursing, Yu Tingyu, who was on the ship, was also puzzled."Pusheng, there aren't many ships in this water stronghold. Where are the navy of the imperial court?”
"I don't know. What I know is that the heavens are helping us today!”
"That's true!" Yu Tingyu nodded." Since we're not going to engage in a boarding battle, let's just let the fast ships charge ashore!"”
"Wait a minute." "Why don't we try firing a few shots first?" Zhao Pusheng stopped him.”
"Haha, I almost forgot that we still have this good thing." Yu Tingyu clapped her hands and laughed. This cannon is a good thing. I heard that it has become popular among the people on the sea.”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
