Chapter 297
After hearing His Highness's analysis, Liu Zhu was extremely ashamed. He didn't talk much but he hit the nail on the head. These problems were enough to affect the success or failure of the battle.???????????????

"In the future, your highness will not fight, so I will slap him two big mouths first!" Liu Zhu said secretly. His Highness's words are at least stronger than him from today. If he is older and experiences several more big battles, he may have another general in the world.
Of course, Liu Zhu admired His Highness from today. He was one of the first people to enter the General's Mansion. Seeing the General's Mansion grow like a breath of breath in the year, he said that the food and clothing of the entire army is better than that of the imperial guards. He has also gone from a magistrate who manages seven or eight warships, three or four hundred people to a commander who commands tens of thousands of troops. These are all given by His Highness, how can he not die for His Highness? Some people in the mansion even secretly planned to help His Highness up to the throne, and he was a minister of the secret residence and had the merit of dragons.
"Your Highness, how do you think this battle should be fought?" Liu Zhu asked respectfully. Now that the arrow is on the string, his combat plan has made such a big mistake, and he is under a lot of pressure!
"Close the door and fight the dog." Zhao Bing thought for a while and said. In fact, he was also a layman in the planning of the battle, but he could 'calculate'. The enemy's marching degree can be estimated by the degree of the current and the wind. The Maowei Sea sounds quite large, but the islands are dense and the sea channel is narrow, which is not suitable for large-scale combat. However, the two sides gathered more than 700 warships to fight here, which was a pot of congee. In close combat, it was not our own leader, so the outcome was obvious.
"Close the door and beat the dog?" Liu Zhu said with a puzzled look on his face, obviously not understanding what Your Highness meant.
"This is just my idea, and I need to be considered by Liu Dutong!" Zhao Bing has an advantage. If you don't understand things, you don't understand things. If you don't understand things, you will ask for advice from things that you don't understand. After all, there are no trivial things that you can do when you are not sure about. If you are not sure, you will ask for opinions from many parties. After all, there is no small matter in the matter he has done. A mistake may kill hundreds of people.
"I dare not, please give me advice." Your Highness, politely, Liu Zhu dared not be arrogant and bowed down and said.
"This is what I think. According to the military rules, all warships often enter the water camp to moor at night, and only sent off guard boats to patrol. Is that true?" Zhao Bing looked at Liu Zhuzheng and asked.
"What Your Highness said is that the sight is not good at night and the boat is dangerous. Therefore, if there is an urgent matter, the ship will not be sent to the sea..." Liu Zhu said, and suddenly thought of what Your Highness said, "Your Highness means to take advantage of the enemy ships gathering in the village and seal the gate to gather them to annihilate them?"
"Well, this is exactly what I mean. We approached the enemy's water camp at night, then launched a raid, destroyed its warships and evacuated quickly, and did not entangle with them!" Zhao Bing nodded and said.
"Your Highness's plan is very good, but the enemy water camp will definitely send out patrol warships. It is difficult to get close to the water camp secretly. When I attacked Guangzhou, your Highness surrendered a water gate that the enemy water army had opened and then launched a surprise attack." Liu Zhu thought for a while and said, but it was necessary to pass this level to implement it.
"This is exactly what I want to ask you. Are the whistle ships usually mainly small oars?" Zhao Bing asked.
"That is, small boats are fast and convenient to travel. They usually use this as a sentry boat, but they are only three or five miles away from the village. Unless enemy ships appear, medium-sized warships will be sent to the offshore for inspection. The Taurus naval army learned from our dynasty and should follow this example." Liu Zhu replied. The reason why he chose to sneak into Qinzhou Bay at night and attacked in the day was because he was worried that the sentry boat would appear. But this also faced huge risks. The waterways there were complex, and large warships would be in danger of stranding or hitting the reef if they were not careful at night.
"Then we have an opportunity!" Zhao Bing slapped the table and said.
"Your Highness has a way to avoid the enemy ship and approach the enemy water camp. Will your Highness be fooled?" Liu Zhu said in surprise.
"Nonsense, there is no way to trick the world, unless you can clear the fog, but do you dare to sail on a boat that day?" Zhao Bing cursed with a smile, thinking that these people really regard themselves as gods. "Qinzhou Bay is connected to the sea outside the sea. There is only one tide rise and fall in a day, and the tide difference can reach two meters. How dare small ships sail at this time!"
"Your Highness, my subordinates understand that it is called a full-day tide. We took advantage of the opportunity of the enemy's ships to avoid it and entered the bay with the help of the tide to approach the enemy's water camp. When they appeared, it was too late, so we could block the enemy's water camp and close the door and fight the dogs." Liu Zhu rubbed his hands and said.
"Yes, these days, the tide has been rising at midnight, and there is a waning moon to illuminate it. We can take advantage of the rising tide to release fire boats to block the gates, destroy the walls, and then release rockets to burn the enemy ships therein. We can take advantage of the falling tide to exit the bay." Zhao Bing said.
"This is the best. Then we just need to send rocket ships into the bay, and we don't need to use infantry troops. We can destroy the enemy water camp with just the power of the navy. Your Highness's magic tricks are so good that we are inferior to others!" Liu Zhu said with emotion.
"For generals, you must know astronomy and geography, so that you can use the power of heaven and earth to defeat the enemy. I just luckily know it!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and smiled, "However, as the commander of the army, you should not only know how to train troops and fight, but also read more books and read some military tactics!"
"I've written it down." Liu Zhu said with a polite look...
The most critical problem was solved, Liu Zhu re-designed a combat plan with His Highness, transforming the attack fleet into two routes, and launching a raid on the enemy troops in Qinzhou and Hepu at the same time. The attack fleet was also reorganized. In this battle, medium-sized warships were used as the main force of attack and tried to carry more rockets to complete the attack in a short time. At the same time, large warships that were attacked were reduced, and only some were retained for escort. In addition to being sentry detectives and liaisons, the fewer the better.
