God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Having received this verbal instruction and guidance, Zhou Cang refocused his attention on the impending battlefield.

A battlefield where the Han army was offered a large sum of money as bait to lure the Kushan navy into a trap.

"Raise the sails, light the fire, launch the ships, prepare the fire arrows!" As the distance drew ever closer, Gabriel grew increasingly excited. When they were still ten miles from the Han army, they saw the chaos at the Han army's temporary dock and the flames that were clearly conveying some kind of message. Realizing that he had been exposed, Gabriel sighed slightly and then calmly gave the order.

Sure enough, things didn't go smoothly. The Han army was indeed elite, and even at night, they still had sentries on duty to react and send out information in advance.

However, it was this notification that completely dispelled Gabriel's doubts, and he then issued orders to the various ships according to the established plan.

Unlike any feigned reaction, the Han soldiers who quickly recovered after the brief chaos, and the Han soldiers who gradually restored their formation under the command of some junior officers, truly demonstrated the corresponding elite qualities.

But it was precisely because he demonstrated such elite qualities that Gabriel realized he had truly seized the opportunity.

"This is a golden opportunity! We must strike the Han navy hard this time!" Gabriel drew his sword, thrusting it forward and channeling his inner energy to deliver his voice and commands to all the fleet soldiers. He roared, "In the name of the Ceci family, we swear that we will win this battle and annihilate the Han navy here!"

The deep, resonant voice carried far and wide, instantly boosting the morale of the Brahmin soldiers who heard it.

The Ceci family's name is so unpretentious, especially in the navy and naval forces, where it is synonymous with excellence.

As for Cecilie, that's synonymous with invincibility.

As one of the outstanding fleet commanders of the Ceci family, the significance of our commander is enough to inspire every Kushan naval soldier.

In response to Gabriel's command, the unmanned boat placed at the forefront quickly caught fire, providing light in the darkness and illuminating the surrounding environment.

"Cut the rope!" After confirming that the small boat was on fire, the centurion, who was waiting at the rear, and after confirming that the soldiers on the small boat had returned to the ship at the rear, gave the next order: to loosen the connection between the small boat and the ship at the rear.

After the connection was canceled, the small boat moved slightly faster, but not by much. The distance between the large boats remained extremely risky.

"A wave!" Gabriel, who was fully aware of the situation, showed no worry on his face. Instead, he was extremely relaxed. He mobilized the reserve cloud energy of the fleet's ships and directly launched it into the Ganges River below. Then, along the gap between the small boats and the large ships behind, a wave that was not very large was formed.

The artificially created river waves propelled the small boat forward quickly, soon creating a safe distance between it and the large ship behind it.

The ships that the Han soldiers had moored at the temporary dock hadn't even had a chance to set sail before they were struck by these rapidly approaching small boats of fire, instantly making them even brighter.

The unique impact of some of the small fire boats even caused the ignition materials on the boats to spread to the Han army's ships, thus triggering a chain reaction of fires.

In response to the chain of fires that had already broken out, some Han soldiers, under the arrangement and deployment of their superiors, began to extinguish the fires nearby and speed up the transportation of supplies. At the same time, some Han naval soldiers were salvaging the supplies on the ships, trying to preserve as much as possible in the shortest possible time.

"Instead of wasting time saving the ships, they're saving the supplies on board. The Han army is indeed well-trained and highly skilled." Gabriel's words were full of praise for the Han soldiers, noticing everything that had happened at the temporary dock. Having confirmed that the upcoming battle was likely to unfold as he had imagined, Gabriel no longer cared about the opinions of others, nor did he describe or overestimate his opponents.

If you elevate your opponent to an even higher level, making them appear stronger, then the person who defeats them will naturally also be stronger.

Having this awareness and mindset, Gabriel has already begun to envision what might happen next and make the necessary decisions.

Unfortunately, when the fire ships at the forefront achieved their objective, and Gabriel dispatched the large naval ships from the rear to enter the battlefield, things did not go as Gabriel had anticipated.

The Kushan navy on board the ships used catapults and arrows, along with a large quantity of prepared oil, to produce a large number of oil bombs and fire arrows, which were used to attack and burn the grain and supplies piled up near the temporary dock.

It can be said that within a very short time, flames soared into the sky, billowing thick smoke.

Although he was positioned above and couldn't smell the burning grain in the thick smoke, Gabriel understood from the smoke that what was being burned was indeed grain, real grain, and not something fake, which further ruled out the possibility of a trap.

No traps, no surprises, isn't this a victory destined for us?

Given this, Gabriel naturally did not hesitate any longer and continued to command the naval forces to launch an attack.

...

"What a dazzling fellow, daring to flaunt his position on the battlefield like this." Zhou Cang was quite surprised to see the rather conspicuous Kushan naval flagship and the Gabriel on it.

In a normal battlefield, unless one is extremely confident in their own strength, they will try to keep a low profile.

Being in the midst of a large army, without revealing one's command position, and thus avoiding being preemptively eliminated by the enemy, is more conducive to the performance of the legion and the army.

"With victory in sight, it's a reasonable tactic to take actions that can boost the morale of the troops." Fa Zheng, who instantly judged Gabriel's actions, directly stated the reason why Gabriel did so.

"In that case, why don't we give them a shot?" Turning his head to look at the vector projector beside him, Zhou Cang rubbed his large hands and said with a hint of excitement.

After experiencing the impact of the vector projector, Zhou Cang was very interested in this weapon that could strike targets at extremely long distances.

Zhou Cang, who was not skilled with a bow and arrow, still highly regarded this weapon that could kill experts from a great distance.

“No need, this weapon isn’t meant for the enemy.” Fa Zheng gently shook his head, rejecting Zhou Cang’s suggestion and idea.

Some weapons, once they appear on the battlefield, mean they lose their intended kill potential, which is not a good thing. (End of Chapter)
