Facing huge domestic pressure, Qi Jun had to adopt a positive signal to deal with peace talks. Plus the war is stalemate. The domestic situation has been seriously detrimental to the Qi army, and as a last resort, such a method was adopted. What they need is to speed up and get free from the war.

And on the Yangtze River in the south. A new war is starting.

"The weather is so foggy. I really don't know how to go." said a sailor on the ship.

"I don't know. We can only look at the heavens. We should stay quietly at noon before leaving. In that case, the fog will dissipate a little." An experienced old sailor said.

"Before, I also encountered such a thing on a boat. The bad news is that we ran into those water rocks." The old sailor said.

"All the people in the boat are dead." The old sailor said at this time.

"Oh." At this time, the sailor was very shocked when he heard such a result, because he didn't know how the old sailor came out in front of him.

"I think..." At this time, the old sailor raised his finger and motioned to the sailor not to speak.

"Boom." A loud noise suddenly came.

"Boom." Then there was a huge explosion, and then the whole ship shook violently.

Just one shell. Broke the calm of the entire water.

On the other side of the fog, a warship was busy nervously.

"It's a ship, but I don't know who owns it." a gunner called out loudly.

"No matter who it is, can you determine his location after hitting it?" a casually dressed person asked.

"Sure, it's on our starboard side." The gunner shouted loudly at this time.

"Okay. All gun positions, all ready. Fire. Quickly." The casually dressed man shouted loudly.

"Aim in place." There were loud shouts in the cabin.

And on the foggy side. The people on the ship also realized that the situation was not good.

"Someone attacked us, and the other party has artillery." The sailors shouted anxiously.

"Don't mess up. We have to avoid them." At this time a first officer shouted loudly.

"Zuo Man Ruo. Hurry up." The first officer shouted loudly at this time.

"Boom. Boom." A few dull cannon sounds came out of the thick fog at this time.

"No." The first officer heard something wrong at this time. Shouted immediately.

"Boom. Wow! Wow!" "Boom. Wow!" Then, the whole ship shook violently. Sawdust flying everywhere where the shell hit. The most terrible thing is that these flying sawdust came from the explosion.

"Boom." There was another huge explosion.

"Hit. Do you see it? There is still fire on the foggy side, we hit." A gunner in the cabin shouted loudly.

"Continue firing." At this time, the gunner shouted loudly.

"Load the cannonball, fast," a strong sailor shouted loudly.

"Propellant. Hurry up," the gunner shouted loudly.

After the first occurrence. It usually takes a long time to complete the second reload. This resulted after the first round of shooting. There is usually a period of outage for the artillery.

This is a water pirate dressed up as a navy army of Chu State. Their purpose is to hijack more ships to make them armed ships, and at the same time hijack these goods to become their most important source of military expenditure. And occupy an absolute advantage in this water battle.

"Our cabin is leaking." A sailor on the opposite side of the fog shouted loudly at this time.

"Immediately plug the gap. Our ship cannot sink. There is a lot of cargo on it." At this time, the captain stopped staring, and then shouted loudly to the sailor.

"Our ships are all cargo, and these are nobles. If these cargoes are lost, our lives will definitely be lost," the captain said at this time.

"In fact, our cargo has already been lost. Those artillery hit the cargo." The chief mate on the side said at this time.

"Moreover, the ship has smoked and caught fire." The first officer said in a breath.

"The ship on the opposite side will definitely be able to find us," the chief officer said.

"Shut up, we have to guarantee our cargo." At this time, the captain still emphasized loudly.

The first officer shook his head helplessly at this time.

"We started out alone. It was a mistake." The first officer said at this time.

And the sailors behind him. At this time, they were rescuing their ships nervously, they knew very well. In the next round of offensive shelling. They will be completely sunk.

And on the foggy side. The captain and chief mate are discussing urgently.

"Our target is the other party's ship, but we are still not sure how many ships the other party has." The chief officer said at this time.

"Our offense is the ship, and we don't care about the rest. Isn't it good for more ships?" At this time, the captain said.

"The second round of artillery attack stopped the attack." The captain gave orders.

"Let's get up. Capture that ship. This is our goal. Even if there are more ships, we will capture them." The captain resolutely issued the order.

"Are we crazy?" At this time, the first officer thought this situation was really shocking. They are doing adventurous things.

"We were crazy." The captain said with a smile at this time.

"Get in there immediately. Catch up with that ship. We want to capture him." The captain said loudly at this time.

Immediately, the warship quickly stepped forward. They tracked the ship quickly.

"They rushed over. What should we do?" At this moment, the chief officer on the ship yelled in panic.

"Ready to fight." Seeing the warship approaching quickly, the captain reluctantly issued an order. Let it fight.

"Everyone is ready to fight," a sailor shouted loudly.

"It seems that this ship is quite big." At this time, the captain of the warship asked.

"We can install twenty-five artillery." The chief mate said. The approaching warship can see the situation of the opposing ship clearly at this time. This is for them. They caught the prey they wanted most.

"Prepare to attack." The captain said at this time.

"Order, our artillery, aim at the personnel on the deck to shoot, using shrapnel shells." At this time, the captain turned around and said to the first officer.

"Yes, sir." Scholar Qin Ren said like that at this time.

"Hey." The captain smiled slightly. This was the first battle they encountered since they set off. From the captain's point of view, the first battle was against a merchant ship with weak resistance and only one ship. The battle will end easily.

"Let it go." This time. The artillery began to attack.

"Boom. Boom." The artillery began to fire.

"Swish." The shrapnel was launched directly at a short distance.

"Woo." The crew members who were standing on the boat ready to hit their opponents were hit by many people at this time.

"Swish." "Ah." More and more sailors were hit. Many of them cannot stand up.

"Offensive." The captain of the warship immediately launched an offensive at this time.

"Kill." The sailors who heard the order immediately took up their weapons and launched an attack on the opposing merchant ship. They put ropes on each other's masts, and immediately jumped to help fight. But the battle didn't have any intensity for them. The merchant ship on the opposite side was already short of personnel and attacked several times. There was a severe blow immediately, and the rest of the sailors could not resist. They gave up resistance very wisely. This is for them. It is a very wise choice.

"We surrender." The sailors who had just jumped to the captain, they had not yet started the battle, but they ushered in this sentence,

The first officer also raised his command sword at this time and said loudly.

"Surrender, we surrender." At this time, the first officer took the lead in surrendering.

At this time, the merchant captain was full of anger, and for him, the battle was over.

"Even if I go back. I can't face those nobles, I only die once. This ship is mine. Mine." The captain said loudly at this time.

With that said, the captain of the merchant ship immediately ran to the cabin at this time, and then the cabin burst into flames.

"Captain, we occupied that ship." At this time, the first officer said happily.

"This is our first battle. We won such a result. It seems that our results will expand a lot in the future." This time. The captain said in a good mood.

"Not good. The ship is on fire." The chief officer said at this time.

"What?" The captain turned his head and looked over at this moment.

"With such a big fire, our shells have not hit the critical point." The captain said loudly at this time.

"Go, see, what's the situation." This time. The captain roared loudly.

"Yes." The first officer left immediately to check the situation.

On the merchant ship, the sailors immediately began to escape from the water because the fire was so big.

"Run." More and more people gave up fighting the fire, and then started diving to escape.

"Boom." This time. More and more sounds of falling into the water sounded.

"What happened?" the first officer asked loudly.

And no one on the other side answered, everyone was trying desperately to escape.

Soon, the fire engulfed the entire ship.

"This is our first result." The captain said gloomily.

Although this battle was short, the Chu State Water Army did not have any results, but they took an important step. They will fight on the entire Yangtze River. The next battle will gradually escalate.

The calm Yangtze River swallowed the merchant ship. The armed warship also quietly left at this time. The rising sun dispelled the fog at this time. Everything has returned to calm, but the calm torrent will not be able to calm down. This will herald the beginning of a real battle,

Not only the Yangtze River, but also the ocean. The end of the golden waterway and another starting point.
