Han counter current

Based on this calculation, he can be sure that Lu Xun will not be able to gain much military exploits on the battlefield, and no one will know his third brother's battlefield commanding ability better than him, so he thinks it is better for him to leave.

Chapter 340: Funan War 2

This is the benefit of knowing yourself and the enemy. Lu Xun's ability is beyond words. In many cases, he can put forward unique insights. However, his understanding of Gao Zhong is obviously not as much as that of Yan Cheng.

After all, the excellent place of the Lu family in Jiangdong is not for nothing. Those well-known aristocratic families, which one does not have a deep accumulation.

Yan Cheng is a child of the Yan family in the north, and he was well educated when he was a child, but in some respects, he is still much worse than Lu Xun.

On the sea, the Funan navy was full of fighting spirit. Although a small number of pirates came to harass and provoke them along the way, they were all defeated.

Even if most of the pirates have escaped, it also shows that the combat effectiveness of these pirates is not enough to worry about.

It is Fan Jian's eldest son, Fan Qing, who is leading the Funan Navy, he is the eldest son who is qualified to inherit Fan Jian's throne.

Therefore, it is not too much to entrust such an important unit as the navy to his commander. After all, Fan Jian trained him as his successor.

Along the way, Fan Qing kept inquiring about the pirates, the number of pirates, the warships of the pirates, and the fighting methods of the pirates, etc.

He wanted to find out as much as possible.To be honest, in Funan, Fan Qing's military ability is absolutely top-notch.

In Funan, how many people can have his strength?How many people command large-scale troops like him?How many people can be braver than him?

It was very rare for him to take into account so many factors on the way forward. Moreover, when he first came into contact with the pirates, he fought with a cautious attitude. After learning about the real combat effectiveness of the pirates, he quickly changed his strategy.

Such a commander is definitely rare in Funan. Fan Jian can become the most powerful and powerful overlord in Funan. His eldest son has also put in a lot of effort. It is no wonder that Fan Jian values ​​​​Fan Qing so much.

"It shouldn't be difficult to defeat the pirates. It would be best if we could wipe out all these pirates. Huh, then no one can compare to my military exploits, and no one will dare to rob my father of the throne.

As for those half-hearted small kingdoms, hehe, if you still don’t surrender after defeating the pirates this time, then I can only destroy you all by the way, hahahaha,,,,,,”

Fan Qing's ambition is based on his own ability and the strength of the sailors under his command, otherwise, he would not dare to pursue the pirates so arrogantly.

In these years, he has led his subordinates across Funan, fought many battles with other kingdoms, and gained a lot of military exploits, forging his reputation.

Three days later, the main force of the Funan Navy arrived at the stronghold where the pirates were hiding. Fan Qing tried to recruit the pirates, but was rejected.

In a fit of rage, the Funan Navy launched an attack, and the two sides started a battle on the island and the sea. From the very beginning, the Funan Navy had an absolute advantage, and it seemed that the pirates were vulnerable.

At the same time, Gao Zhong and Lu Xun led the navy to the predetermined location and completed the anti-siege of the Funan navy, but they were not in a hurry to attack.

Just as the Funan Navy attacked the pirates' hiding place, Yan Cheng also made a detour to a small island near Jin'ou Island.

After sending out scouts pretending to be businessmen to inquire about information, Yan Cheng also completed the deployment before the attack, and the war was about to break out.

The fierce battle lasted for five days, and the Funan navy firmly gained the upper hand, but the pirates resisted tenaciously.

Even though they had lost half of their warships, these pirates still refused to surrender, as if they were going to fight to the end.

Fan Qing originally thought that this war would end soon, but who would have thought that these pirates would still make him feel very troubled.

At the beginning, he boasted in front of his father. If the pirates could not be wiped out as soon as possible, some villains with ulterior motives would definitely speak ill of him behind his back.

In desperation, Fan Qing had no choice but to mobilize all his troops, trying to settle the war with one battle.If he continues to delay like this, his logistics will not be able to keep up.

As the number one general in Funan, Fan Qing still has some talent. Let me ask, how many people in Funan can be like him, who can still worry about logistics, morale, etc. when fighting.

Unfortunately, this time, he chose the wrong opponent.If it were any other kingdom in Funan, Fan Qing would have a chance of winning even if the opponent had more opponents, but this time, he was calculated to death.

Soon, the pirates who were already at the bottom retreated one after another, fleeing towards the inside of the stronghold one by one, and most of the warships on the seashore became the spoils of the Funan navy.

"It took so long to snatch such a small broken ship? Huh, leave 2000 people to guard the warship, and the rest will go ashore and kill these pirates for me, kill..."

When the pirates retreated, they discarded a large amount of looted supplies and jewels, which made the Funan Navy officers and soldiers look red.

Many people have already received news that the pirates have piled up all the treasures they robbed during this period in the caves on the island, and the real treasures are all hidden on the island.

Now, after the soldiers of the Funan Navy received the order to go ashore to fight, they were all so excited that they were going crazy.

The fighting power of the pirates is just like this, it seems that it is not difficult to wipe them out, and those treasures will soon become their spoils of war.

"Almost, the fish is completely hooked."

On the upstairs boat, a smile appeared on the corner of Gao Zhong's mouth.

"Brother Boyan, the plan you set up to lure the enemy to go deep is really ingenious. Now that the enemy army has given up their warships and landed, this gives us a chance to wipe out the enemy army. After this battle, you will be the first to do it."

"Don't dare, I still have to rely on General Gao's subordinates to attract the enemy."

Lu Xun has always kept a low profile, but he will not let others ignore his talent.In particular, when he met young people like Gao Zhong and Yan Cheng, he was more or less in the mood to compete.

"Next, our army will take down the enemy's warship in the shortest possible time, so that the enemy has no way to escape. At that time, hehe, the entire Funan navy will be wiped out."

"Tell me, brother Boyan, what do you want?"

Gao Zhong is a person with clear grievances and grievances. Lu Xun must have thought about this trick, otherwise no one will make friends with him in the future.

"General Yan must be about to capture Jin'ou Island now. After this battle, I will assist General Gao in attacking Temu City. However, after this, I hope that the general will entrust me with the task of attacking Jinchen Kingdom."

"Jin Chenguo? Hehe, all of you have unique visions. Well, I will accept this matter. I will also truthfully report your military exploits to my adoptive father. Now, let's attack... "

A smile of appreciation appeared on Gao Zhong's face.Lu Xun's words seemed random, but in fact, during this period of time, they had studied all the important strongholds in Funan.

Needless to say the importance of Jin'ou Island, Yan Cheng has already left.Although Jinchen Kingdom is small and weak, its geographic location is still above Jin'ou Island.

Chapter 341 Prepared Battle 1

On the island, the Funan Navy advanced slowly because they were not familiar with the terrain.Although these pirates are not good at fighting, they are good at evading their lives, and there are many traps around them.

However, the Funan navy had an absolute advantage, the pirates couldn't beat them on the sea, and they still couldn't beat them after they landed on the island.

"Hold on, you must hold on, and you must not retreat. If you retreat, you will die."

A pirate leader is constantly cheering up his subordinates. In fact, he doesn't like the fighting power of the Funan Navy. However, at present, he is on the defensive side, so he must improve the morale of his subordinates.

"Brothers, the reinforcements are at sea. We can win within an hour at most. We must hold on. These Funan dogs are just like that, nothing special."

"Funan people of Gou Ri, come on, will I be afraid of you? Come on, I will teach you how to behave, hum, I won't let you go crazy."

Some brave pirates fought back and cursed angrily. It seemed that this was the only way to vent their inner anger. Although they also knew that their combat effectiveness was mediocre, they must have some anger after being suppressed and beaten like this.

On the opposite side, the Funan Marine Division did not have any formations. A series of victories made them relax their vigilance. Normal people would relax their vigilance at the happiest and most comfortable time.

Furthermore, when the war has progressed to this point, no one thinks that the pirates can still turn the tables, at most they let some of these pirates escape.

"Damn it, when will the general come? I think it's been too hard for me to wait here."

An injured pirate leader was obviously angry. In fact, it wasn't that they were too weak in combat. The key point was that they were tasked with attracting the enemy ashore, so they couldn't do their best to fight.
