Dozens of small boats with five or more pirates in them scattered across the river. They ploughed up a merchant ship that was captained by the Lan Xang people. In addition, they also deliberately cover the path for some time so as not to be disturbed by other ships.


Smaller boats already moored themselves on the banks of the river, let alone just the sampan people. However, the other three ships, which should have also avoided the battle instead speeded up. The three Chinese skippers could do nothing but follow the will and intentions of the passengers and servicemen guarding the chartered ship all from Lan Xang.


"I as skipper not only control this ship, but also think about the safety of passengers, goods and this ship" said one of the Chinese skippers insisted.


"Free, master skipper. Everything is useless if neither the passengers, crew nor the guard soldiers of this master ship are in place. We're all going down to help Lan Xang's ship. When it's like this, you won't have a crew and soldiers to command and passengers to guard" replied the leader of Lan Xang's forces guarding the Chinese ship.


"We understand you don't want to be involved in this matter. Especially because the attackers were the nation of Da-Viet who was hostile to the land of the master. We were also basically confused as to what problem the people of DaDi Viet and Champa had with Lan Xang. Are they not also hostile? Ah, but sir, you don't have to worry. Just get this ship close, we'll get down by boat and attack them. Sir doesn't have to get involved. You do not need to fire cannons from this ship. I've ordered the crew and some soldiers to stay on this ship. However, if there was no movement from us at all, my crew and friends would not want to hear the orders. They'll go down by themselves, all of them, sir," explained the chief soldier.


The skipper clearly thought hard. He scratched his head which was covered in hair curled at the top of his head. "What about the two ships behind us? What if they don't want to get involved and get distracted if we decide to attack those boats?"


The warrior chief held his upper daab then smiled. "All ships have agreed, sir. Our colleagues have been giving each other news with flag signs since. It's our decision, sir. Our ship is the closest to those boats. So, we'll start the attack first. Just get this ship close, sir. The boats are ready to be taken down," said the chief of the hired soldiers from Lan Xang was steady.


And that's exactly what happened. The Chinese skipper's ship was speeding up, fishing the other two ships behind him. The decision is unanimous. It's already wet, just take a shower.


Straight river water currents do have a fundamental difference with the sea. Therefore, the way of sailing and the way of war was quite different. The speed of the three ships could not be held back by boats Da Viet and Champa.


"Death to you Annamites," cried the soldiers of Lan Xang excitedly. Annam is another name for the Vietnamese Network.


The ship's bow directly hit the bodies of enemy canoes and boats, destroying them and making the pirates thrown out of the boat. This was clearly a surprise to the people of DaDai Viet and Champa who felt that normally and naturally, merchant boats would avoid the pirates. Moreover, it can be seen blatantly that pirates number many times over.


The second and third ships also broke through the group of boats and overturned them all. Not only that, Lan Xang soldiers at once threw javelins at the Annam pirates, injuring them and killing them. Blood began to wash away the murky river water.
