Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 748 The battle between the land and the river is over

Xihe, this is a very short river, a tributary of the Hanshui River. It goes around Longzhong, enters from Deng County in the upper reaches, and directly flows into the Hanshui in Xiangyang in the lower reaches.

"Start the ship!"

"quick!"

"It's moving!"

Although Jiang Xia's army suffered a great loss in the raid of Long Zhongshan, it did not affect the main force controlling the warships. One by one, they boarded the warships and moved quickly as if they had returned home.

Countless warships headed downstream along the West River.

Huang Zu thought about it, since it was a trap, Mu Jun must be prepared. The small waterway coming in cannot be used, because the small waterway is only two or three feet wide, and it would be great to allow two ships to pass. It was blocked from left to right.

You can only follow the right path of Xihe.

Although the Xihe River is a tributary, it is not as spacious and deep as the Han River, but at least a dozen warships can pass side by side, and the water is relatively deep, which allows the building ships to move faster.

Go out from here, at most two hours.

If it merges into the Han River, no one will be able to pursue it.

As far as the Mujun navy, their warships are far inferior to their own in terms of speed and combat effectiveness.

……

"My lord, the Jiangxia warship has gone downstream and has already passed the pier!"

The herding army scouts quickly reported the battle situation.

"It seems that they don't go upstream anymore, they are afraid they won't be able to cross the small river!" Chen Gong sneered: "After all, the riverbed of the small river is too narrow, if there are sniper attacks from the left and right, their warships will be greatly damaged! "

"That's useless, we're going to annihilate their entire army today. Send an order, and the first wave of resistance will begin!" Mu Jing stood on the shore at this moment, looking upstream, waiting for the warship to appear, and started ordered.

"promise!"

The messenger immediately sent a signal to pass the military order.

The north side of the river bank was quickly received.

Jingping First Army Jingping Battalion is the first wave of attack.

"Archer!"

Chen Dao drank.

"exist!"

"shoot!"

"Shhhhhhhhhh!!!"

The countless arrows on the bank were all with flaming heads, and they quickly rushed towards the moving warship.

"Block!"

"Shield Soldier!"

"Watch out all crenels!"

The warships on the river let out a cry.

"If you want to stop us, don't even think about it!" Huang Zu stood on the big boat, with a cold expression, and shouted: "The whole army speeds up, all warships, speed up and leave, we must get out of the West River as soon as possible, and everything will be safe! "

"Prepare the crossbow bed, get on the catapult!"

Chen Dao shouted: "Aim at their warships, leave as many as you can!"

"Yes!"

Jingping Battalion is a combat battalion with complete equipment.

The powerful ballista bed and the trebuchet for the siege had already been prepared, and countless arrows and catapults began to rush towards the warship in the center of the river.

"not good!"

"It hit, repair the cabin!"

"It's on fire, put it out quickly!"

"Quickly leave!"

The warships speeded up, but in the face of the attack of the Jingping Battalion of the First Army, they still suffered some losses. After all, the West River is not the Han River, and they can still avoid it on the Han River. The riverbed of the West River is much smaller than that of the Han River. , The offensive range on the shore has also been enhanced a lot.

When they rushed out of this range, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"How many casualties did we have?"

Huang Zu's face was gloomy.

"Without six warships, it is estimated that nearly 300 soldiers were lost!"

Chen said sadly.

"Damn!"

Huang Zu clenched his fists tightly: "No matter what, continue marching and rush out as soon as possible!"

……

"My lord, they have already surpassed Jingping's attack!"

"It's very fast!"

The corner of Mujing's mouth raised a sneer: "Prepare for the second wave of attack!"

"Yes!"

Chen Gong nodded.

He arranged immediately.

The second wave of attack was less than five miles away from the first wave. This is a concave and convex opening. The protruding place is a natural pier, and now it has become a natural sniper point.

"Pass me the military order, prepare!"

In the night, the Violent Bear Camp quietly crawled, waiting for the sound of the water.

"coming!"

"The archers are ready!" Pei Yuanshao's eyes flickered brightly: "Light it up!"

"ignition!"

The archers of each archer ignited the flames. These arrows were made of tung oil wrapped in rags. When the flames came together, they burned quickly.

"shoot!"

"Whoa!!!!"

Another meteor shower covered the warships on the water.

"It's not over!"

Huang Zu was furious, and he regretted it a little. It was his biggest mistake that the warships entered the Xihe River, because the Xihe River could not exert the evasive force of the warships at all. Countless warships piled up together, facing the shore, they were the targets.

"My lord, let's fight back!"

Chen Zuo said please.

"no!"

Huang Zu was still very calm. He said gloomyly: "They just want to hold us back. Once they fight back, our speed will slow down. It's okay when it's dark. If it's dawn, it will be even harder for us to escape!"

He took a deep breath, suppressed the coldness in his heart, and shouted: "Pass my order, break away from the defense, and rush out as soon as possible!"

"promise!"

The generals took the lead.

When they rushed out of the range of the second wave of attack, they damaged another five or six warships.

This made Huang Zu very angry: "If this is on the Han River, even if it is the Tanxi waterway, I will not be so aggrieved!"

Water warfare pays attention to terrain.

If the waterway cannot exert the force of the warship, it is self-restraint, and it cannot exert the force of the warship at all.

But even so, he still had the confidence to rush out.

After all, he still has a building boat.

The building boat is a giant on the river, it can't be stopped at all, and it will definitely be able to rush out.

When they rushed out about ten miles.

Seeing to go to the downstream port.

As long as they rush out of this downstream port, they will enter the Han River, and no matter how powerful the bows and arrows on the shore are, they will not be able to damage their warships.

"Boys, Hanshui is ahead, get out!"

Huang Zu was furious.

"Ha ha!"

On the shore, Mu Jing had been waiting for a long time. He assembled two battalions, one on each side of the north and south banks, and was waiting for Huang Zu's warship to arrive. A wicked smile rose from the corner of his mouth, and he raised his hand high. Start: "Get ready!"

The generals on both sides of the strait are also waiting.

"rise!"

He gave a loud drink.

"rise!"

"rise!"

In the midst of shouts and shouts, the flames on both sides of the strait suddenly became brighter.

A huge fishing net spread out from the water, exerted force from both sides, directly covered it, and covered the bow of the building boat, like a defensive line, blocking the waterway in front.

"what is this?"

Huang Zu's body was shaken by the swaying hull. He fixed his eyes and looked ahead.

"Master Taishou, it's a fishing net!"

"what?"

Huang Zu's eyes were red: "Fishing nets?"

Dare to use fishing nets to catch warships, who gave them the courage.

"Rush away!" Huang Zu ordered.

"I can't break through!" Several military marquises who controlled the warships reported: "These fishing nets were opened a few times by us at first, but they are connected to the surrounding fighting ships, and they move together!"

Mu Jing mobilized all his strength, gathered the fishing nets of hundreds of miles of fishing families, and stacked them together to form a large net that could pull both sides of the West River across.

"Then go chop it off!"

Huang Zu shouted angrily.

It's just a fishing net, it can't stop them at all, it can only block them for a moment at most, as long as you straighten it out, you can rush out.

However, what Mujing wanted was this moment, enough to make them fall into a passive state.

"attack!"

On the north and south banks, the Fifth Battalion of the Jingping Army and the Heavy Crossbow Battalion of the Violent Bear Army mobilized together.

bow and arrow.

Crossbow arrows.

Throw a spear.

Trebuchet.

All the long-range offensive equipment went into battle, and they exploded together on both sides of the strait, densely packed, making it impossible for them to avoid it.

"Up the urn!"

"Smash!"

The urns were thrown out by the trebuchet and hit the warships on the river.

These urns are filled with tung oil.

This is fire attack.

"My lord, the big boats can't get out, get on the small boats, the small boats can go out in chaos!" Chen then pulled Huang Zu, and in a panic, boarded several fighting ships.

The floor boat is big.

But it is useless in Xihe.

Instead, it became a drag.

If they can't leave at this time, their entire army will be wiped out here.

"I can not be reconciled!"

Looking at the boat, Huang Zu's entire face became hideous in the light of the fire.

"My lord, order the boats to break through, or they will all die here!"

Chen started drinking loudly.

"Pass down our military order, all the ministries will break through on their own, and assemble at Half Moon Bay!" Huang Zu also calmed down, the price of annihilating the entire army here is too high, and he simply cannot bear it.

"Yes!"

This order has been passed down.

Small boats broke through.

The target of the small boat was small, and the soldiers of the left and right battalions of the Mu army aimed at the big boat. Those small boats leaked out like small fish, went down the river, rushed out of the downstream mouth, and rushed towards the Han River...
