The system forced me to be emperor

The state of Qin congratulates Xiao Rui on his succession with the good news of giving away the head!

The news spread to the palace, making the just-concluded enthronement ceremony even more festive.

Xiao Rui also didn't expect that Qin State was so insidious that he would take the lead in launching an attack before he ascended the throne. Fortunately, Gan Ning had already prepared for the battle, so Qin State's plot did not succeed.

In addition, Xiao Rui was very curious, how did this water battle take place?

Time passed to six days ago.

The Great Xiashui Military Camp and Qin State's Qijiang Camp faced each other across the river, but the vast river was too large, and only in the clear night could we vaguely see the looming lights on the opposite side.

During this period of time, the Qin State Qijiang Battalion continued to expand its troops and ships, and there was a lot of movement, so today is the same as usual, and there is nothing unusual about it.

But Gan Ning was vigilant!

Six days later, His Highness's enthronement ceremony will be held. If Qin's naval forces suddenly attack him now, if he loses and the east bank is occupied by Qin, and the news of his defeat is sent back to Kyoto, it will definitely be a blow to his head.

Therefore, Gan Ning has reason to believe that even if the state of Qin has not settled the situation in the sixteen counties, it will take advantage of this golden opportunity to launch an attack!

The more Gan Ning thought about it, the more dangerous he felt. He immediately summoned all the generals of the navy and ordered them to lead the sailors to sleep on the boat with their clothes on. They also prepared all the weapons and arrows so that if the enemy attacked, they could go to war immediately!

The people under him did not dare to slack off, and immediately followed the order.

It was night, just after the ugly hour.

White mist floated on the surface of the Qijiang River, covering the sight.The cautious Gan Ning even dispatched scouts to lurk on the river surface in a small boat painted black, and slowly approached the opposite Qijiang camp.

Sometimes the scouts from both sides would bump into each other on the river. Although the river was wide and wide, coincidences would happen.

So scouting is a very dangerous job.

This time, Gan Ning dispatched ten scouts, all of whom were bold, careful, and skilled in martial arts.After they set off, they immediately separated to investigate, and each rowed a small boat to approach Qijiang Camp. Because of the fog, the visibility was very low, but through the fog, Qijiang Camp could still be seen brightly lit.

The Qijiang camp was no longer brightly lit tonight. Since half a month ago, they had lit torches on the warships at night, and they were glowing red, illuminating their water army camp clearly.

This is also a conspiracy of the Qin State Navy. He keeps lighting the torches at night, and the subtle influence will make the Daxia Navy take it lightly. One day they suddenly attack, they will be caught off guard.

Shuiwa is the team leader of ten scouts, and also the best water-based scout under Gan Ning's command.After he and his nine brothers dispersed, they began to row slowly towards the west bank.

In order to be cautious, he abandoned the boat and launched into the water at a position farther from the west bank, ready to swim to check the situation.

The Qijiang camp is similar to the camp of the Daxia Navy. It was not built directly on the bank of the river, and the river was dug. The river is more than ten feet wide and three to four hundred meters long. It is like a tributary, extending into the inland, and the center is a Great Lakes, that's the base camp.

At the mouth of the river, a gate was built, and there were guarded ships on the river.

The advantage of building a camp in this way is that it can be advanced, attacked, retreated and defended. If the water camp is built purely on the river bank, although it will be very convenient, the disadvantages are also obvious.

When Shuiwa swam closer and could see the situation on the shore clearly, her expression immediately changed!

Why?

Because Shuiwa discovered that a large number of boats had docked beside the river bank!

Usually, the Qin State Navy was fortified, and there were at most five or six building boats on the shore. At this time, there were no less than fifty or sixty boats parked on the shore, and none of these boats had lit torches, hiding in the darkness like ghosts.

Moreover, on these high-rise ships, there is a dark army of the Qi State Navy standing there!In addition, there are still a large number of ships sailing out of the river.

not good!

Qi Jiangying will take advantage of the fog tonight to attack!

Shuiwa was terrified, but fortunately the commander sent them here, otherwise today would be troublesome.So Shuiwa walked back immediately, preparing to go back to the east bank.

But since Qi Jiangying was preparing to attack, how could it be unguarded?

Ten of them spread out to investigate, but when seven of them approached the west bank, they were discovered by the defense line arranged by Qi Jiangying, and they were shot and killed!

Shuiwa was lucky enough to avoid the opponent's line of defense and was not discovered.

As for the other two, they also managed to avoid the line of defense, but they were discovered on the way back and were also shot dead in the water!

Only Shuiwa escaped by chance, and he immediately fled back by boat.

At the same time, Qi Jiangying shot and killed Daxia's scouts, and realized that the operation had been exposed, so he immediately launched an attack!

Sixty large-scale building ships, plus hundreds of ordinary ships, transported a full [-] water troops, and began to send troops to the east bank. The building ships behind were still sailing out, transporting more Qin soldiers to join the attacking team middle.

Shui Wa rushed back to the barracks and immediately reported the situation to Gan Ning.

Gan Ning lost all sleepiness immediately, and immediately ordered someone to blow the assembly horn, and the soldiers who had been resting on the ship immediately woke up and entered the combat state one after another.

Afterwards, Gan Ning personally supervised the battle and ordered the warships to sail into the river. Among them, the most advanced forty largest warships were placed in the front, each of which could support four to five hundred people to fight on board. The latest type of warship built from the blueprint of the modified building ship.

This is what Gan Ning is most proud of, and he is not afraid of the support of Qin's navy!

Qin's navy wants to defeat the Daxia navy and make His Highness lose face when he ascends the throne. It's wishful thinking!

I want to create a victory for myself, congratulations to Your Highness on becoming emperor!

Chapter 623: Defeating the Qin Army to Congratulate Your Majesty on His Enthronement!

It's not yet bright in the east, but on the wide Qijiang River, there are bright lights in the east and west.

Qin's navy attempted to sneak attack on Daxia's navy camp on the east bank. Fortunately, Gan Ning had more foresight and sent scouts to investigate and found clues, otherwise he might have been caught off guard.Moreover, the attack at this time shows that the Qin army has been planning for a long time.

And as the horn of assembly sounded, the Great Xia army immediately set up its position and was ready to attack!

Gan Ning is confident of defeating Qin's navy, not only by relying on his well-trained soldiers, but also by relying on improved warships!

The improved building boat is equipped with a striker on the bow. It is long and thick, and it tilts downward. As long as it collides with the opponent's ship, it will directly pierce the opponent's ship wall and let the lake water pour into the cabin.

Secondly, a ram is installed on the deck. Using the principle of hinges and levers, when the opponent's ship approaches, the lever will throw out a large iron ball weighing hundreds of kilograms and hit it hard on the opponent's ship. Most of the ships are made of wood. , How can it stop the attack of the big iron ball!

In addition, there is also a large Zhuge Liannu installed on the building, the power is absolutely astonishing.

These are attacks, and for defense, leather is installed on the building, which is fire-resistant, and the hull is iron-clad wood, which increases the defense and impact.As for the inner bottom of the ship, the partition space is used. Even if a large hole is broken in the hull and water enters, there is a partition to block the ship, and the ship will not easily tilt.

Unless there are other improvements, Gan Ning personally participated in the entire improvement process, and he deeply understands the combat effectiveness and lethality of this improved building ship!

Gan Ning's side was also ready, and then the horns changed their rhythm, and the boats lit countless torches, illuminating a large area of ​​the river, and Daxia's side also began to attack!

As a navy, the battlefield is naturally on the river.

As the morning approached, the fog gradually showed signs of dissipating. Daxia and Qin's navy finally approached each other, and the distance between them was only five or six miles away!

On the wide river surface, the dark ships on both sides appeared very dense, and the generals on both sides held their breath, because they were about to start fighting!

Just listen to that, the sound of war drums is as rapid as thunder, and the sound of horns is calm and murderous.The boats tear the surface of the river, causing the waves to roll on the calm river.
