When Shen Quan came back from the order, he found that Yang Yuan was still standing in the barracks and did not sit down.

"My lord, what else do you need?"

Shen Quan understood that if Yang Yuan had nothing to say, he would definitely not behave like he is now.

Yang Yuan withdrew his gaze towards Dongting Lake, and said to Shen Quan: "Can the imperial guard camp go to Dongting Lake again?"

Shen Quan was silent, the imperial guard camp was Yang Yuan's close guard, and it stands to reason that the imperial guard camp would follow Yang Yuan wherever he went.

But Shen Quan didn't want to go to Dongting Lake again.

Water battles are more uncontrollable, and there are far more accidents than on shore.

Shen Quan observed Yang Yuan's expression and found that his expression was very firm, obviously his answer could not change Yang Yuan's decision.

Shen Quan: "The Guards Battalion will always fight by your side!"

Yang Yuan nodded in satisfaction, he needed the imperial guards to maintain this spirit.

"Go to Shenwuwei, let them send ten warships to set off with the Imperial Guard Battalion to chase the grain ship!"

Yang Yuan led fifteen warships to set off one and a half hours after the grain transport ship set off.

I don't know if I can catch up?

It only takes three hours to travel from Dongting County to Nanhu County.

The speed of the grain transport ship is relatively slow, and it can reach Nanhu County in four hours.

When Yang Yuan set off, the grain transport ship had already crossed the central waters of Dongting Lake and reached the surface of the lake near Nanhu County.

In the past, this area was all patrolled by the Shunguo navy, but now there is no Shunguo navy on the lake!

The command of the grain transport fleet is very high-spirited.

Although it is only a transport fleet, he can sail unscrupulously on Dongting Lake!

Apparently, the reminder from the imperial guard camp hadn't been delivered to him yet.

Otherwise, he would not have arranged the formation so boldly. In order to get to Nanhu County as soon as possible, Shi Gang, the commander of the grain transportation team, asked the fleet to form a very arrogant formation, a triangle formation.

With the flagship as the arrow, other ships follow closely behind in a triangle shape, which not only increases the speed, but also reduces the pressure on the soldiers who are rowing.

The disadvantage is also obvious, the reaction is very slow when encountering an attack.

A normal formation may only take five minutes to launch a counterattack, but this dense triangle formation will take at least a quarter of an hour to launch a counterattack.

In ten minutes, eighty ships were sunk!

That is to say, Shi Gang believed that there was no threat to the existence of the fleet on Dongting Lake, so he formed such a formation.

No one in the fleet thought there was anything wrong with this formation. The fire was so earth-shattering that the sky could be seen from a hundred miles away. The entire sky was red, and only the blind could not see it.

At least 70% to 80% of the Shunguo Navy was destroyed in that fire. Who would dare to touch their Qianguo's tiger's whiskers on Dongting Lake?

It was also because the grain transport fleet used this formation that the Shenwuwei reconnaissance ship that set off later failed to catch up with them.

"Commander, we can reach Nanhu County in half an hour at most."

"Well, we can disperse the boats behind, don't be in a hurry."

"yes."

The ships of the grain transport fleet separated a little, and Shi Gang changed direction slightly, sailing towards the wharf in Nanhu County.

He didn't know much about the terrain of Nanhu County, and he had only seen the overall terrain of Nanhu County on a map, so he had to find the pier first, and then lead the fleet to dock.

The reconnaissance ship of the grain transport fleet separated from the fleet and accelerated towards Nanhu County.

They also don't know the exact location of the pier. They row to the shore first, and then row along the shore, and they can always find where the pier is.

Shi Gang sent all eight scout ships in the fleet to look for the dock.

Without the vigilance of the scout ships around, Shi Gang lost his understanding of the situation beyond his vision.

He didn't bring binoculars either, and all the intelligence gathering was done with his eyes, so it was only natural that he was discovered by Xu Fan and took the initiative.

When the ballista and the bed crossbow landed on the boat, Shi Gang was shocked at first, and then panicked for a short period of time, but quickly regained his composure.

"Don't panic, if you panic, the fleet will be over!"

Shi Gang, who had calmed down, immediately joined the command. Although his water combat ability is only average, as long as he can still make a sound, the grain transportation team will have the strength to fight back.

"Zhang Hu's boat is at the forefront, and the rest of the boats form a T shape to meet."

Gu Xi has a total of 40 grain ships, of which 25 are pure grain ships filled with grain, and the rest are only half filled with grain, and the other half are filled with normal offensive weapons .

Shi Gang ordered the grain transport ships to go first, and fifteen ships with sufficient combat power to meet the Shunguo navy.

This time, Xu Fan was out in full force. His initial plan was to intercept Qianguo's food transport team, but he was later destroyed by Yang Yuan and the imperial guard camp. Unexpectedly, he found Qianguo's food transport team when he was looking for the imperial guard camp. fleet.

Going around and going around has realized his original intention.

Xu Fan: "This is God's favor for me, I must not waste this opportunity!"

Xu Fan's flagship took the lead in the charge. He knew that Ganjun's ballista was powerful, but this time he was fearless.

"Come on! Go up and disrupt their formation, and don't let those grain ships get out of the fleet."

Xu Fan saw the grain transport ship with a relatively deep waterline at a glance.

The warships of the dry army may not be hit, but the grain ships must be sunk.

Xu Fan didn't know that all the boats in the grain transportation team were loaded with grain, so he only focused on the fully loaded ones.

Shi Gang definitely couldn't let Xu Fan go there, but the waters of Dongting Lake were too wide, Xu Fan's water army bypassed Shi Gang and chased after the grain ship.

There are many small boats in Xu Fan's water army, and the boats are small and the people are few, but the speed is not slow at all.

Four or five people rowed with all their strength, and quickly bypassed Shi Gang's obstruction.

Shi Gang shouted to the flag officer: "Let the last boats spread out and stop those small boats!"

Originally, Shi Gang led fifteen boats to meet Xu Fan's water army~lightnovelpub.net~ but he found that there were too many small boats bypassing him, and the ants killed the elephants, not to mention the grain ships.

The Shunguo boat is also much stronger than the ants.

Under Shi Gang's full interception, Shunguo's small boats suffered a lot of losses. These small boats were so small that the soldiers of the dry army could overturn them with long bamboo poles.

But Xu Fan not only has small boats, but also many warships of seven or eight feet long.

Shi Gang blocked most of the boats, but was also surrounded by Xu Fan's warships.

Now he even wants to support the grain ship.

"I can only do my best!"

Shi Gang no longer showed fear on his face, and after being surrounded, his heart calmed down instead.

"Order to fight to the death with the Shunguo Navy!"

Shi Gang didn't use semaphore, but shouted with the loudest voice.

The dry soldiers on the ship also roared with the loudest voice.

Soon, a voice resounded from the ten surrounded warships:

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

Even the peaceful Dongting Lake was stirred up by this huge roar.

All the boats around were shaken and undulated by the sudden waves of Dongting Lake.

Xu Fan did not go after the grain ship, he saw that Shi Gang's flagship was surrounded.

Those grain ships could not escape his pursuit, and killing a dry army general would undoubtedly make him happier.

It is best to be captured!

"General Qianjun, you can't run away, surrender!"

Faced with Shunjun's persuasion to surrender, Ganjun's reaction was very consistent.

Only the army (general) who died in battle, the army (general) who did not surrender!

Let's fight!

It's a big deal!

Xu Fan: "If you want to die, I will help you all!"

He thought of the subordinates who were killed by the Qian army's sneak attack, and he didn't want to leave Shi Gang a way out.
