I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Song Yi retreated back to the Chaohu water village, and said helplessly to Li Gang: "General, Guan Yu is too difficult to fight in the water. His subordinates are no match for him. Fighting in water and fighting with cavalry are completely different things!"

It's just that Song Yi was still a little unconvinced.If fighting on land, he is still confident that he can defeat Guan Yu.It's a pity that he has no experience in fighting in water.Originally thought that the training for the past few years was not bad, but when he played against each other, he found that the difference was too much. Even though his navy had an advantage in equipment, it was still easily divided and surrounded by Guan Yu's navy.

Li Gang reassured: "It's just that Guan Yu is bullying you because you are inexperienced. If you fight this kind of water battle a few more times, you will naturally be able to defeat him when you gain experience. It's not us who are worried now, but Guan Yu. Now he has all the water battles with him." The division has arrived at Chaohu Lake, we just need to defend the water stronghold, but Guan Yu's navy cannot stay here for long, Fan Xian's fleet will soon attack Yangzhou, if Guan Yu does not return to help by then, Yangzhou will definitely be captured by our army. etc. When it comes to retreating, let's hold him back so that he can't advance or retreat!"

In the distance, the war drums on the Han side were still roaring, and under the guidance of the Han army's warship Guan Yu's battle flag, they were regrouping, and it seemed that they wanted to continue to attack!

Li Gang smiled and said, "Look, Guan Yu is really in a hurry and wants to take advantage of the momentum to continue attacking our water village! I was going to let him know that our army is not easy to mess with."

Li Gang commanded his warships to slowly return to the camp.Wait until Guan Yu's battleship slowly presses up.

"Boom, boom, boom" Hundreds of artillery shells were fired at the two high grounds in Chaohu Water Village to attack the Han army. For a while, the water column shot from the sky, and the two warships rushing to the front were even torn apart by the shells.

Only then did Guan Yu discover that there were two forts on the left and right sides of the Dagan Army Water Village.The designed range of the two cannons just now even exceeds three miles, and a single shot can tear a warship apart. This is obviously a giant cannon used on a battleship. The shells of this kind of giant cannon exceed a hundred catties. The last time such a shell was fired, the ship was bound to be destroyed.Guan Yu had no choice but to withdraw and lead the warships to retreat.

"General, what should we do now? The big artillery is so fierce that our warships can't resist it at all!" The power of the 4-jin cannon and the [-]-jin cannon is completely different, and there are hundreds of giant cannons to block and protect the water Fortress, it is impossible for them to break into it.Then they couldn't complete the strategy they set to wipe out the Chaohu water army, so Huang Gai was a little anxious now.

Guan Yu looked at the water village in the distance and said: "Now we can only see when Demou can arrive. As long as Demou's army comes here, our army can attack both land and water."

Then Guan Yu saw the two fortresses and said, "These two fortresses must be resolved!"

At the same time, Wang Lei in Xuzhou immediately sent Xiong Ba to lead 5000 cavalry to support Li Gang after he knew that Guan Yu had attacked the Chaohu Water Village. He was not worried that Li Gang would be defeated by Guan Yu in the land battle, but Wang Lei also had no confidence in the water battle, so he immediately sent cavalry to support Li Gang after knowing that Li Gang was attacked by Guan Yu.

After sending out the vanguard, Wang Lei also began to recruit the entire Xuzhou army.Now that Guan Yu has already attacked Jiujiang County, he thinks this is a good opportunity to conquer Yangzhou. If the fight goes well, maybe he can also help Yang Feng attack Jingzhou!

On the other side, after receiving a letter from Li Gang, Fan Xian knew that the Yangzhou navy had entered Chaohu Lake. At this time, the Yangtze River was no longer defended by the Han navy, so he immediately ordered his own naval warships.

One day later, hundreds of warships marched mightily along the continental shelf towards the mouth of the Yangtze River. Fan Xian's navy sailed unimpeded all the way, and arrived at the mouth of the Yangtze River after traveling for three days.

At the same time, he also encountered the first obstacle. In front of his battleship, there were several chains directly across the Yangtze River, floating on the river with wooden boards, and nailed to the bottom of the river with iron rods. There were several small warships behind the chains.If Fan Xian's battleship wanted to cross the Yangtze River, it had to break these chains.

"Iron Chain Hengjiang" Fan Xian looked at the scene in front of him with a sneer. This is useful in general battlefields, but for a navy like theirs, iron chain Hengjiang is a joke.

He ordered the warship to slowly release these iron chains, then hooked these chains with a hook, and then wrapped the iron chain around the hook, and then commanded the warship to move in the opposite direction. After a while, these iron chains were dragged by the warship At the bottom of the water, Hengjiang can easily break the so-called iron locks.

Zhu Zhi was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him. He never imagined that the power of the battleship would be so powerful. Each of his chains weighed tens of thousands of catties, and they were still nailed to the bottom of the Yangtze River. His warships are pulled away, so that his blocking plan will all work.

At the critical moment, Zhu Zhi quickly thought of another way. He ordered his navy soldiers to lead the battlefield to quickly dock on the pier, and ordered the soldiers to find sandbags and boulders for defense and load them all on these warships, and then he planned to put all these warships Sink to the bottom of the river and completely block this section of the river!

In this way, both sides were competing for time, and Zhu Zhi is now thankful that he took the trouble to get more than a dozen iron chains, and it would take a lot of time for Fan Xian to pull these iron chains in this way.

And Zhu Zhi quickly filled the battleship with stones.Soon more than a dozen warships were filled with stones, and Fan Xian's iron chains had not been fully pulled.Zhu Zhi ordered these ships to sail into the middle of the Yangtze River Estuary, and then cut through the bottom, directly letting these ten warships block the Yangtze River Estuary.

After Fan Xian discovered Zhu Zhi's method, he was also speechless for a while.Using such a suicidal method to prevent his battleship from logging into Yangzhou, he logged in from other places, and many of Yangzhou's naval divisions are gone, but he has to admit that this method is still very useful.

His naval warships have a deep waterline, but the waterline at the mouth of the Yangtze River is shallow. Now they are blocked by Zhu Zhi's warships, and the Yangtze River cannot pass.

Unwillingly, Fan Xian sent a relatively small warship to try it out.As a result, it ran aground easily, but his warship was pulled back. Obviously, the Yangtze River Estuary was completely blocked, and it was impossible for his fleet to enter the Yangtze River Estuary unless these ships were cleared out.

But Fan Xian was not discouraged. Since he couldn't enter the Yangtze River Estuary, he wanted to land in Yangzhou elsewhere. He knew that Guan Yu had already led the army to attack the Chaohu Navy, and there would definitely not be many troops left in Yangzhou. If you are serious about it, there must not be many troops in other places.

So Fan Xian led the battleship away from the mouth of the Yangtze River, but continued south, intending to go to Kuaiji County to log in.

After Zhu Zhi saw this scene, he felt helpless for a while. He was very lucky to be able to block the Yangtze River. Even if he knew that the big army would continue to enter other places in Yangzhou, he was helpless.

Zhu Zhi and Fan Xian in Yangzhou fought wits and courage, while Guan Yu also entered the most critical moment. Cheng Pu's army surrounded the Chaohu navy camp the next day.

At this time, Li Gang realized that Guan Yu was really giving up his life. Not only did he bring the navy, but even the poor army in Yangzhou brought tens of thousands of people. The number of people surrounded by him was at least two. More than [-], Yangzhou does not need to defend.

But Guan Yu's behavior also made Li Gang excited.Although it is more dangerous for him to do this, as long as he guards the camp, Yangzhou will be in danger. Yangzhou, which has only more than 3 people, cannot guard the territory of thousands of miles.It is very difficult to hold a county. After all, Yangzhou has a large area, and the area of ​​a county is not much different from that of a state in the Central Plains. If more than 3 people are to be dispatched, it will be very sparse.

As long as he blocks Guan Yu here, Yangzhou can be captured easily, even Fan Xian's navy can occupy Yangzhou.Of course, the premise of all this is that he can withstand Guan Yu's attack.

Li Gang didn't think it was difficult. He had 2 troops in his hands, and Guan Yu's combined navy and army was only about 4, which was only twice as many as him.He felt that he could not defeat Guan Yu in water combat, but on land, Li Gang felt that even with twice as many soldiers, he could resist.

On the other side, as soon as Cheng Pu's army arrived, Guan Yu sent an envoy to contact Cheng Pu, and ordered Cheng Pu to concentrate his main force on attacking the two forts in Chaohu Water Village, and must control these two forts.

Cheng Pu looked at the two forts in the water village and said to the emissary seriously: "You go and report to General Guan, Cheng Pu will take down these two forts even if he dies in battle!"

Then the two sides agreed to attack the Chaohu navy at the same time tomorrow. They all knew that if the Yangzhou army stayed in the Chaohu water village for one more day, it would be dangerous!
The next day, both sides of the Chaohu water village were full of killing noises. Cheng Pu, Zhou Tai, and Han Dang led a battalion to attack the Chaohu water village from three directions at the same time.

Li Gang was naturally not to be outdone, and commanded the army to beat Cheng Pu and the others down!
He even turned the cannons of the two forts to shoot at Cheng Pu and the others!

"Boom boom boom!" The artillery shot down like a meteor, and the battlefield was full of smoke. Every time the artillery fired, it would take away a large number of Han soldiers!The arrows shot by the soldiers of the Dagan Army covered the sky like locusts. Even if the Han army was protected by shields, it was difficult for them to advance. It can be said that the First World War was extremely tragic at the beginning!

But as Li Gang commanded with full will, the roar of war drums came from behind him!

"Report, general! The navy of the Han army is coming again!" shouted one of the incoming soldiers.

Li Gang was already prepared for Guan Yu's flanking attack. He said to Song Yi, "If you lead 3000 sailors into battle, as long as you hold off Guan Yu's army for one day, our army will definitely be able to defeat the Han army on the opposite side!"

He can't fight water battles, but he doesn't think the infantry of the Han army is his opponent!

Song Yi nodded firmly and said, "This subordinate will not let the general down!"

So Song Yi rushed out of the water stronghold with ten large warships and nearly a hundred small boats, intending to rely on the Chaohu water stronghold to resist Guan Yu's navy head-on.

But Guan Yu didn't care about this, and ordered the warships to approach the Chaohu Water Village carefully, but when his sailors got close to the range of the big cannons, the cannons didn't shoot, but they still pointed at Cheng Pu's guns. Only then did Guan Yu feel at ease.Then command the battleship to deal with the Dagan navy in front of him.

Song Yi used 10 large warships as the main body, and the remaining small boats surrounded these warships to form a defensive formation. Guan Yu's navy rushed over, and Song Yi attacked Guan Yu's warships with long-range offensive weapons such as mortars and ballistas. .

And Guan Yu sneered when he saw this scene, because Song Yi's tactics were the same as last time, Guan Yu ordered the fleet to disperse, and at the same time sent small boats to rush into the formation of the Dagan Navy to disrupt the formation of the Dagan Navy!Many battlefields even rushed into the Dagan Water Village, causing the entire Water Village to panic!It is still relying on their large number of soldiers to wipe out these soldiers.

But this has completely messed up Dagan's navy formation!After Guan Yu found out that the navy of Dagan was in disarray, Guan Yu dispatched hundreds of small boats again. Straw sulfur and grease.

When these small boats rode the Dagan navy in a chaotic formation, they shot at the Dagan army water village like hundreds of long arrows!Song Yi on the battlefield didn't have the problem of gap at all. When these small boats approached the water village, the soldiers on board also lit the straw.

All of a sudden, these small boats became hundreds of fire boats, at this moment Song Yi panicked and said: "Quickly find a way to stop these boats from setting fire!"

On the other side, Li Gang was fighting Cheng Pu vigorously, but they found that the rear was in turmoil because of the fire.

When he knew that Guan Yu set fire to his water village, he had no choice but to give up attacking Cheng Pu first, and ordered Wan Lang to lead a battalion of soldiers to defend the camp. Li Gang ordered the two fortresses of Chaohu to attack Guan Yu and his warships!

But Li Gang's order allowed Cheng Pu and the others to seize the opportunity. With the loss of 1 troops, Cheng Pu and the others had much less pressure to attack. Cheng Pu and Zhou Tai led the elite to storm the direction of the two forts!

After suffering heavy casualties, Cheng Pu and Zhou Tai captured the two forts.Then these two forts became the sharp weapons of the Han army.

The two recruited artillery, and used the giant cannons of the two turrets to continuously bombard the large navy and camp!
After several rounds of fighting, the camp was bombed and smoke filled the sky, and the soldiers ran around to avoid the artillery attack!

When Li Gang saw this scene, he didn't even have the heart to die. It was the first time he was defeated so badly. Song Yi ran over at this time and said: "General, the army is in chaos. We must find a way to save ourselves now. The camp We can't keep it anymore, let's escape to other places!"

After speaking, he pulled Li Gang, boarded a large ship, rushed out of the encirclement, and fled towards the north of Chaohu Lake, while the commander fled, and other navy soldiers also drove boats to escape from their camp.Wan Lang realized that he was about to be surrounded by two sides, so he immediately led the soldiers in his hands to flee towards Hefei!

In this way, the navy that had been built for 2 years was broken by Guan Yu!
