Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 397
"Brother Song Jiang, our small boat ahead has entered the dock of the guards, and the brothers at the front have already met the enemy."

Song Jiang asked nervously: "How is it now?"

"So that I can let my brother know that all the small boats of the protection army in front have escaped above the water. Brother Zhang Shun said that they can't look at each other now. Hundreds of our brothers have surrounded them like a pack of wolves."

Hearing the timely rain, Song Jiang and Zhu Wu, the military commander of Shenji, were both overjoyed.

The many leaders on the shore were also very happy, and there was endless flattery, "I said that the guards are all beginners in sailing ships. If they really come to our Liangshan Po, we have to listen to our fishermen's skills."

"I've never heard that a person in a sea boat can beat a person in a fishing boat in a lake."

"We brother Liang Shan has fought against many government troops. We have never been afraid of him when he was killed by a wooden boat as big as the government. The cleverness of a few small boats is not in vain."

"However, I need to tell brother Zhang Shun to be careful about this, maybe that Sun Xin has some malicious tricks."

Some people looked at the three heroes of the Ruan family with disdain, thinking that the water army of the protection army was so weak that they were beaten and fled in all directions. The three brothers had controlled the water village for so long but They never sent troops, even if they hadn't confided in the protection army, it was the reason why they were deliberately weak and refused to step forward to use their lives.

Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, and Ruan Xiaoqi didn't dare to speak about this.

Song Jiang and Zhu Wu both let out a sigh of relief and smiled broadly.

Every time the imperial army invaded Liangshanbo, as long as the fleet was broken up by small boats, it would inevitably be surrounded and wiped out.

They all felt that their sons had a lot of ways to deal with the scattered ships, or they jumped to fight or capsized the ships from the water. Just send back the message of being wiped out.

above the mighty water.

Zhang Shun and others hurriedly dispatched troops to let the small boats chase after them, and the large fleet followed the dozens of small boats scattered on the lake to kill them.

They only dared to capture enemy ships on the lake, and did not dare to dock.

Many soldiers of the Protection Army had already arrived on the shore, and the two regiments were organizing an offensive on the shore. The purpose was not to prevent the water troops on the lake from going ashore, but to assist the ships on the shore with long-range weapons.

However, Zhang Shun was more relieved that the small boats of the protection army did not run aground on the shore in the way he feared most, and then all the people on board disembarked, so they used the firepower advantage on the shore to prevent Liangshan's small boats from approaching. If he did this, he might not even be able to get close to one of the opponent's boats.

But in fact, the water army of the Protecting Army not only did not approach the shore, but moved slowly on the water surface, constantly leading Liangshan's boats to his side.

"Hurry up and ask the sons to surround them!"

Zhang Shun yelled at Tong Weitong who had already jumped into the order boat. Tong Weitong was holding a harpoon in his hand and was wearing a water jacket, ready to go into the water to fight at any time.

"Be careful when you jump to the gang later."

The two brothers nodded, their faces full of excitement.

Zhang Shun and the Tong family brothers didn't think that this was the idea of ​​the protection army wanting to fight him.

They thought that there were no foreign teams on Liangshanbo, and they might have beaten the five or six hundred elite sailors in Liangshan.

Looking at the small boat of the protection army that was gradually surrounded by their own men ahead, both Zhang Shun and the Tong family brothers felt that the other party had already fallen into their hands, and it was only a matter of time before it capsized.

Without hesitation, the ships under him surrounded the escorting army's boat one by one.

The Tong family brothers also jumped into two small boats, each holding a harpoon in their hands, and quickly urged their subordinates to row their boats to approach two of the small boats.

"Here comes the leader!"

When the brothers on the boat saw the Tong brothers approaching, they also showed joyful expressions. All of them had weapons in their hands.

The two brothers separated, and Tong Wei arrived at an encircled area, where more than a dozen small boats were getting tighter and tighter around one of the escort ships in the center.

The protective army ships in the center were bigger than the small boats. A small boat in Liangshan had three or five people on it, while the protective army ships in the center had a navy squad of ten people.

Everyone looked at the boat in the center with joy in their eyes.

This boat is not easy to catch.

At first, everyone thought that since the boat of the protection army was covered with iron, it must be heavy and must move very slowly, but after the siege, they realized that the boat of the protection army was very light to move on the oars, walking on the lake. It is faster than their fishing boats.These Liangshan fishing boats circled around the escorting army's boat for a long time before successfully encircling it.

Many of these Liangshan heroes who were born as fishermen were originally subordinates of the Ruan family brothers. When they were led by Zhang Shun and other southerners for the first time, they were still somewhat dissatisfied.

But at this time, they saw the success of Zhang Shun and Tong's brother's plan to advocate for the expedition, and they gradually turned to a flattering attitude in their hearts. They felt that the leaders of Song Jiang brother, Zhang Shun and others were much wiser than the Ruan family brothers. This is the battle that should be fought.

They tightened the encirclement around the ship, and they could already clearly see the tense expressions of everyone on the opposite side of the escort boat.

The guards sitting on the boat also seemed to have a division of labor. Several people were in charge of rowing the oars, one was in charge, and the rest were busy loading ammunition, firing bullets at the fishing boats on the water continuously with muskets.

However, their rate of fire was really too slow. At the beginning, they could only cause some damage to the brothers on board. Later, as soon as they fired their guns, everyone hid in the boat, and most of them could escape.

Tong Wei gently raised his hand, and with a wave of his hand, the sailors with knives in their mouths would jump into the water.

At this moment, he suddenly saw the ten guards looking at each other in the distance, and set up a big thing in the shape of a lotus pod from the boat.

"what is that?"

Tong Wei was stunned for a moment and wanted the children to be careful, but looking around, the fishing boats were too close now, and it was impossible to separate them for a while.

He felt a little bad in his heart, and hurriedly ordered the sailors to get into the water as soon as possible.

At this moment, the ten soldiers of the protection army quickly ignited the two honeycomb firecrackers fixed on the ship, and the smoke was burning, and the time seemed to stand still for a second or two.

"Bang bang bang!"

The sound of launching is endless.

Tong Wei was dumbfounded, seeing that the sailors beside him were directly shot into a hornet's nest, and wanted to order them to dive quickly, but how could there be time?
Accompanied by the continuous sound of muskets, the sailors around him who were still stretching their heads to look at the situation on the other side were shot one after another. Some sailors with knives in their mouths had already jumped into the water, and they all looked back at him in astonishment. The situation on board.
