Shen Quan also wants to add some experience in water warfare to the imperial guard camp, but there is a major premise to ensure the safety of Yang Yuan.

If the next battle might threaten Yang Yuan's safety, then Shen Quan would rather not have these experiences.

Shen Quan still insisted: "Boss, my opinion is to withdraw to the north bank first, and then I can bring the imperial guards back to the lake."

This can not only ensure the safety of Yang Yuan, but also increase the water combat experience of the guard battalion, killing two birds with one stone.

It just needs Yang Yuan's cooperation.

Yang Yuan glanced at Shen Quan and said, "You are treating me like a burden!"

Shen Quan said without changing his face: "The boss is joking, Shen Quan dare not!"

"Hmph! Don't dare? I think that's what you mean.

Come on, let's go out to practice, on the boat or in the water, you choose! "

At this time, Yang Yuan didn't look like a king in charge of a powerful country at all, but rather like a street gangster who was about to have a fight.

Shen Quan looked at his king with a black line, even if you are now making an appointment with me as the owner, it shouldn't be!

"No!"

Shen Quan's answer was in line with his personality, it was so simple and straightforward.

Yang Yuan also wanted to say something provocative, asking Shen Quan to agree to fight him. After he came out of Cangyang City, he became more and more relaxed.

"After coming out, it's still the same as being in the palace, so what's the point of coming out?"

It's a pity that when he saw Shen Quan's expressionless face, he knew that no matter what he said, Shen Quan would not agree to fight with him.

It is still possible if Shen Quan is replaced by Ma Teng.

However, it is estimated that even Ma Teng would not allow him to fight here, "Boss, let's fight right away, this water is not where our old horse is good at."

Shen Quan would only use a numb expression to make Yang Yuan give up the idea of ​​fighting.

Yang Yuan: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to fight, just keep sailing forward!"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Yang Yuan, Shen Quan could only go out from the cabin and ordered the imperial guards to move forward.

Just now they chased two Shun Chuan for more than five miles, and they should encounter other Shun Chuan soon.

Just don't know if it's one set or two sets.

If there are more than three groups, Shen Quan will directly order to turn the bow of the boat and return to the north bank, even if it violates Yang Yuan's order!

I don't know if it was Yang Yuan's good luck or Xu Fanshui's bad luck. The Imperial Guards encountered another seven or eight groups of Shunjun reconnaissance ships within two hours after encountering the first group of Shunjun ships. Encounter at most two groups.

A warship of the Imperial Guard Battalion was severely damaged in this battle.

After the battle was over, Yang Yuan ordered people to gather all the captured soldiers on two ships and imprison them, then put the severely damaged warship into the portable space, and released a good warship again.

If it wasn't for the limited strength of the Imperial Guard Battalion, Yang Yuan would directly send out a fleet to fight Xu Fan.

It is estimated that the court of Shun country will receive another bizarre battle report, and the "heavenly soldiers and generals" of Qian country will appear again.

Two hours later, the good luck of the Guards Battalion was useless, and Xu Fan had already discovered that an accident had happened to the reconnaissance ship.

According to his order, each group of reconnaissance ships must return to the water village once every two hours, and seven or eight groups of ships have not returned.

Apart from Qianjun, Xu Fan couldn't think of any other enemies.

"Let all the scouting boats come back, and borrow the group again before going to the lake."

Taking back all the reconnaissance ships and hiding in the water village is definitely the safest, but it is also the most passive.

The loss of the reconnaissance ship by the navy is like a person losing his eyes. How can a blind man be with everyone else.

Not everyone is blind.

Five reconnaissance ships went to the lake together, and even if they encountered a dry army, there was a high probability that they would be able to escape one by one.

As long as he finds the position of the Qianjun, Xu Fan is confident to defeat them.

Although Shunguo's navy was defeated, it was caused by the use of wind and fire. Xu Fan was still confident that he could defeat Qianguo's navy by using water warfare.

And at this time, the main force of the army should already be in Nanhu County, how much power is left on Dongting Lake?

Xu Fan's response was indeed effective.

Gu Yu In the absence of Yang Yuan summoning more soldiers and warships, the Guards Battalion was temporarily unable to fight the five Shunchuan.

It's not that you can't beat it, but it's unnecessary.

The battle of ten ships cannot end in a short time.

After Xu Fan discovered that there was a dry army on the lake besieging and killing his scout boats, he prepared loud arrows for each boat.

As long as they encounter a dry army, they immediately fire their arrows, and Xu Fan will immediately surround him with the main force.

He speculated that there would not be too many soldiers secretly besieging his scout ship, and the main force going out would only reveal his intentions.

Although the dry army besieged and killed the scout ship was hateful, Xu Fan still didn't call them the number one target.

His most important target was always the dry army's grain ship.

Worth it even if all scout ships are lost.

In the southwestern waters of the center of Dongting Lake, the five warships of the Imperial Guard Battalion slowly drifted on the lake.

Two quarters of an hour had passed since the last battle, and the Imperial Guard Battalion hadn't encountered Shun Army's scout ship yet.

Shen Quan walked into the cabin and said to Yang Yuan: "Boss, it is estimated that Shunjun has already noticed our existence, should we go back to the north bank first?"

He knew very well that Yang Yuan had no intention of summoning a new army.

With such a small force in the Imperial Guard Battalion, it is better to avoid the Shunguo Navy for the time being.

Yang Yuan is still a little unwilling, he hasn't played enough yet.

But he also knew that it was the best choice to withdraw to the North Shore at this time.

"Let's withdraw."

Now that he decided to retreat, Yang Yuan ordered decisively without hesitation~lightnovelpub.net~The warship of the Imperial Guard Battalion turned around and returned to Dongting County.

Yang Yuan secretly vowed in his heart that he must form a powerful navy, and his army will be invincible no matter on the ground or in the water!

Not reconciled, Yang Yuan withdrew the imperial guard battalion to Dongting County. The ancient battlefield was not completed, and the main force of the Shunguo Navy also saw it.

However, the results of the Imperial Guard Battalion were good. They fought seven or eight small battles and captured more than 430 Shunjun troops.

It was right for the Guards Battalion to return to the north bank in time, and the prisoners would have no place to stay if the attack continued.

When the imperial guards returned to the north bank, the food convoy had already set off.

They did not meet on the lake, and the Guards Battalion failed to remind the grain transport fleet to be careful of the Shunguo navy on the lake.

By the time Yang Yuan thought of the grain transport fleet, the imperial guard camp had already rested on the north bank for half an hour.

"It's broken. The grain transport ship is going to Nanhu County today, so it won't be intercepted by the Shunguo Navy!"

Yang Yuan suddenly stood up from his chair and said to Shen Quan.

Shen Quan was dumbfounded by Yang Yuan's question, "Probably not..."

He never thought about it!

On the contrary, Yang Yuan confirmed his thoughts, "Yes, it's too good!"

According to Murphy's Law, the less you want something to happen, the more likely it will happen.

"Immediately send a boat to catch up with them. Regardless of whether they will be intercepted by the Shunguo Navy or not, we must inform them to sail carefully."

Shen Quan immediately went to ask someone to notify Shenwuwei, and sent warships to catch up with the grain ship, telling them that there were Shunguo navy wandering on the lake to protect their safety.

It's a bit late, but it's better than doing nothing.

I'd rather be wrong than do nothing.

Yang Yuan is not afraid of making mistakes, but afraid of cowardice.

Once people start to be cowardly, they will make more mistakes.

Maybe this time he can have a real confrontation with the Shunguo Navy!
