    (ps: Just to clarify, Pure Wolf has been ill since the first day of the Lunar New Year. He persisted with the illness for a few days, but the cold became more and more serious. The low-grade fever made his lips covered with scabs, and his head was groggy.  I want to ask for leave. Although I tried to hold on for a long time, I really couldn’t hold it anymore, so the number of words is less. Please be considerate of my friends.)

    "Report——! The Mangou navy turned around and attacked Hudu for the third time. Our troop transport fleet is still nearly a mile away from the north bank!"

    "Report————! The Mangou navy launched an attack on our army's troop carrier fleet, but our army's navy has not sent troops to intercept it so far, and it seems possible to flee timidly!"

    "Report————————————————— As soon as our army's troop transport fleet came ashore, the Mangou navy rushed into our army's fleet and started a war with our army's river bank defenders. The battle was fierce, and our soldiers fell into the water."  There are so many of them! However, for some reason, our navy has not yet appeared on the battlefield!"

    One more urgent meteor express was sent to the Wu army camp on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and directly sent to the dormitory where the old traitor Wu was resting. After hearing the news, most of the Wu army generals who came to the dormitory and waited for orders became anxious.  Ants, all anxiously looked at old traitor Wu, waiting for old traitor Wu to send troops to respond to the order, but old traitor Wu who put on his clothes and got up to listen to the spy yawned loudly, waved and said: "Okay, there is no need to report again, everyone  General, go back and rest too, you have nothing to do tonight."

    "It's nothing to do with us?" Xia Guoxiang was stunned, and he hurriedly stepped forward and clasped his fists and screamed: "Father-in-law, how can you say that it's nothing to do with us? Now the Mangou navy is attacking our troop carrier fleet, and our navy is attacking us again!"  It’s missing, and the situation is so critical, how can you say that it’s nothing to do with us?”

    "It's true that the situation is critical, but it's not us, it's Man Dog." The old man Wu smiled treacherously, and said casually: "If the old man is not wrong, the Man Dog sailor should also find out that the situation is wrong. Don't worry, Yifeng's ability  This king understands that we will definitely win this water battle."

    "My lord, can't you be so optimistic?" Wang Shirong also stood up and said cautiously: "Before, Lin Xingzhu's department of our navy and Xu Zhidu's department of the Mangou Navy fought three times, and they all came back in defeat.  Your lord, you don't even know what the division is doing, so how can you be so optimistic that our army will win?"

    "You guys don't know about water warfare in rivers and rivers." The old man Wu smiled even more happily, and said proudly: "Although the old man is not very proficient in water warfare, I also know that in river water warfare, the most important thing is wind direction and water flow.  Our navy lost three times in three battles, all due to the unfavorable wind direction and current. Now Yifeng uses the troop carrier as bait to attract the full-fledged sailors, but our sailors are nowhere to be found. What are they doing? Other than robbing  What else is there to do besides the vantage point of being upwind and downwind?"

    "Besides, Yifeng gave us an opportunity." The old traitor Wu added proudly: "In one day, he has tossed the Mangou Navy back and forth three times.  How much stamina do you have? We waited for work and seized favorable terrain, if we can't win this battle, then the old man sees that Lin Xingzhu won't be the vice-commander of the navy anymore, he can go straight to the prison and squat."

    The old traitor Wu trusted Fatty Lu so much, and all the generals in the Wu army were inevitably skeptical, but the old traitor Wu didn't give the generals a chance to continue questioning, he just waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's all go down, those who are on duty at night should strengthen their inspections, and the others  Rest well, and when Yifeng pulls out the small nail on the periphery, it's up to you to pull out the big nail in Jingzhou."

    After all, the old traitor Wu directly asked the guards to drive the generals out of the tent, and continued to sleep. Although the generals of the Wu army were not completely relieved, they saw that the old traitor Wu had already spoken to this point, so they stopped insisting  , They all went back to camp to rest according to the order without mentioning it.  At the same time, throughout the second half of the night, the battlefield at the ferry was indeed filled with shouts of killing, artillery and explosions, and the fighting was extremely fierce.

    In the early morning of the next day, the good news really came. After the Wu army's crossing fleet lost three or four hundred soldiers, the Wu army, who had seized the upper reaches and the upper hand, turned around and fought back.  .  The exhausted Qing army navy could not form an effective resistance at all, and was defeated by the Wu army navy who vowed revenge. Twenty-two warships were sunk by the Wu army, twelve of them were captured, and four were captured.  Two thousand, the traitorous wife of Xu Zhidu, Xu Shi, was also stabbed to death by soldiers of the Wu army in the near-board battle, and became a beehive for life.  Xu Zhidu led the defeated army and fled back to Yiling, and never dared to go out to harass the port again. The river near Jingzhou was finally completely controlled by the Wu Jun navy.

    ? Finally avenged the blood feud of three battles and three defeats. The elated Wu Jun and navy unanimously called for the battle, demanding to take advantage of the victory to pursue to Yiling City, break through the city and hack the dog traitor Xu Zhidu and his family to death.  But Fatty Lu refused, "No, I have to leave Jingzhou Mangou with a thought and a way out, otherwise, Jingzhou Mangou will really be unable to fight to the death. Anyway, Mangou Sailor"What is death?"  ——It is even no exaggeration to say that without the protection of the city wall, the Wu army only needs to send 3,000 soldiers, which is enough to send the 30,000 Qing army recruits back to their hometowns!

    "Huh?" After splashing his companions with cold water, Tu Hai suddenly remembered something again, and asked hurriedly, "Wait, everyone, I don't know if I remember correctly, it seems that when Xu Zhidu and his wife reported victory to us last time,  How many of Wugou’s suicide boats have they captured? The Wugou’s new gunpowder on board was also seized by their husband and wife?”

    "Tutang, you remember correctly." Chani, who had been silent all this time, stood up, "I remember very clearly that Xu Zhidu and his wife seized eight boats of Wugou's new gunpowder, but I don't know if they have used it now."

    "Prince Jian, Xu Zhi is under your command, please send someone to contact him immediately!" Tu Hai stood up immediately and said, "Tell him, if the eight-ship Wugou new gunpowder has not been used, then you must do so."  Don't use it indiscriminately! Let him find a way, no matter what method he uses, he will use these eight ships of new-style gunpowder to blow up the Wanwan embankment for us!"

    "Tutang, is Xu Zhi sure of this?" Labu asked in surprise.

    "It's all a gamble." Tu Hai gritted his teeth and said, "If my predictions are correct, after Songzi's Wu Dogs have all crossed the Yangtze River, the main force of the Wu Dogs will launch a strong attack on our Jingzhou City.  Wu Dog likes to fight at night when he sieges the city, so we use the darkness to reduce the threat of our bows and muskets, we stick to the city to attract Wu Dog's attention, Xu Zhi should take advantage of the opportunity to attack, there should be a few percent success!"

    "Okay then." La Bu also stood up, gritted his teeth and said, "For the sake of the Qing Dynasty, this king doesn't care so much anymore. I immediately send cavalry out of the city, break out of the siege to deliver a letter to Xu Zhidu, and let him spare no expense."  Blow up the Ten Thousand Causeways at all costs, and flood the Wugou camp!"
