Cao Cao took a closer look at Huang Gai's warship, and he also became suspicious, so he immediately ordered someone to find Yu Jin and Mao Jie.Yu Jin arrived soon, but Mao Jie was still drunk.Cao Cao didn't have time to explain, so he immediately asked Yu Jin to lead the boat to stop Huang Gai, hoping that it would be too late.Kan Ze had already seen the problem from Cao Cao's eyes, and he didn't dare to interrupt at this moment, he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing that they were about to arrive at Cao Jun's water village, suddenly there was an earth-shattering sound of gongs in the water village, which was the warning sound of the water army.A soldier stood at the bow and shouted at Huang Gai, telling Huang Gai to stop the ship.The gate of the water village was also opened, and Yu Jin led hundreds of the fastest warships like Zou Ke to rush out of it.

Seeing that something was wrong, Huang Gai's personal guards immediately asked: "General, they seem to have found a problem, what should we do now?"

Huang Gai looked left and right, and drew out his sword with a clang: "At this point, we can only fight recklessly, our warship is not as fast as others, light it up! Go straight to Cao Cao's naval base!"

Hula la, Huang Gai's warships suddenly changed from a long snake array to a neat row, and torches were lit on every ship.After a while, Huang Gai's warships began to burn like fireballs, rushing towards Cao Cao's water army.Until this moment, everyone finally understood that this was all Jiangdong's plan, and Huang Gai wanted to set himself on fire.

Although Yu Jin's warship was fast, it was much smaller than Huang Gai's.Huang Gai steered the helm himself, and loudly ordered the sailors to fill the sails.The strong southeast wind was blowing among the sails, and the mast seemed to be unable to bear it, making a creaking sound.Huang Gai had no intention of slowing down at all, and he didn't care about Yujin's walking Ke in the slightest, driving his warship to rush straight into Yujin's water army.

"Stop them!" Yu Jin shouted.It's a pity that his warship is too small, and he can't take advantage of Huang Gai's warship.The light walking vehicles were scattered by the impact, and some of them had been ignited by the burning warships.

The soldiers in the water fortress began to shoot arrows, and the overwhelming arrows poured down on Huang Gai's warship like raindrops.The soldiers could only hide.There were screams mixed with the collision of warships and warships.Driven by the strong wind, they continued to move towards Cao Jun's water village.

Mao Jie waved three times and came to Cao Cao.He had already heard from the soldiers about the Jiangdong navy's attack.Mao Jie was a little scared. Although he was Cao Pi's father-in-law, he was only the father of a concubine. If Cao Cao spoke, Cao Pi would not be able to save himself.Mao Jie belched, and the strong smell of alcohol sprayed out from his mouth and nostrils.

Cao Cao frowned: "Huh? Have you been drinking?"

Mao Jie was so startled that he fell to his knees with a thud: "My lord, spare my life! My lord, spare my life!"

Seeing that Huang Gai's warship had arrived at the outskirts of the water village.These warships of Huang Gai have been specially modified. Not only have iron blocks for impacting the bows been added, but also barbs have been nailed on them.Driven by the wind, the fire came towards the navy.The outermost part of the warship has been burned.

Cao Cao's cold eyes burst out with murderous intent: "The battle is imminent, and as the chief general, he drank alcohol in disregard of the military law. Come on! Behead Mao Jie!"

"My lord, spare me! Eldest son, save me! Save me!" No one said a word of intercession for Mao Jie, watching several soldiers drag Mao Jie down.

Dong Zhaodao: "My lord, the Jiangdong army set fire, and our warships were tied together, making it difficult to escape. You can order the chain of warships to be disbanded immediately to avoid the fire!"

Cao Cao immediately ordered.The navy started to get busy.When building serial warships, in order to ensure stability, which method should be used for stability, and which method should be used for comfort.Now when it comes time to disassemble, all kinds of problems come.Either the rope connecting the two warships was too tight, or the wooden boards laid on the ship blocked the place where one could strike.

Huang Gai personally carried two cans of kerosene, straddled one, rushed through the fire, completely ignoring the arrows flying towards him, and flicked vigorously.The fire oil tank swirled in the air and flew towards the building boat in front of it. "Crash!" The kerosene tank was smashed to pieces, and the viscous kerosene began to spread on the deck.The flames rushing up seemed to have smelled the smell, and plunged into the fire oil, bursting out with huge vitality in an instant.Under the flow of fire oil, it began to spread throughout the ship.

Kerosene is actually not what we call petroleum products now.Although there are records about oil in ancient times, it was not until the Song Dynasty that it slowly appeared in terms of utilization.The fire oil in Huang Gai's hand was peanut oil.In the south of the Yangtze River, there are more swamps and lakes, and more sandy land.Sandy soil is the best place to grow peanuts.Peanut oil is flammable and is the most important strategic material.

Some soldiers of Cao Jun didn't notice the flowing kerosene until the fire burned their feet, and then they realized that it was too late.The surrounding area was already covered with kerosene, and the raging fire surrounded them, and the flames several feet high swallowed them in a blink of an eye.Heart-piercing shouts shook the entire water village.

The fire burned more and more vigorously, driven by the strong wind, it continued to devour the warships of the navy.The serial warships were inseparable, unable to run, and could only let the fire spread on the ship.Yu Jin stood on the boat, staring at the uncontrollable fire, a little dazed.Looking at the sailor soldiers who were crying for their father and mother, they clenched their fists.There is nothing I can do.

Jiangdong people are still throwing kerosene into the fire.Every time a can was thrown in, it was like a bomb, and suddenly there was a huge sound, and the flames were several feet high, and they had surpassed the top of the building.

Cao Cao did not order to retreat, and the soldiers of the navy could only bite the bullet and try to avoid the fire as much as possible, and kept shooting arrows towards the Jiangdong army.Of the [-] soldiers and horses brought by Huang Gai, countless people were shot to death, and many of them fell into the river because they lost their warships.Huang Gai was also hit by two arrows, one in his left arm and one in his chest.Under the protection of two personal guards, he found a small boat and rowed towards him.

The warships of the navy burned vigorously, and the sky turned into a sea of ​​flames, illuminating the entire river red.Yu Jin saw at a glance that a man in a general's uniform was heading south in a small boat under the protection of two soldiers.The fire in Yu Jin's eyes was not much smaller than the fire in the water village, and he ordered loudly: "Turn the rudder! Catch up with that boat!"

Cao Jun's soldiers started together, walking like an arrow, regardless of everything on both sides and behind, and headed towards Huang Gai's boat blindly.Huang Gai was indeed getting old, he couldn't bear such a little injury, his gray beard kept shaking, and he lay in the boat panting heavily.The two personal guards rowed the warship with all their strength. They knew that if they couldn't leave here, they would be caught up by Cao Jun soon.

"Where to go?" Cao Jun shouted together.Huang Gai turned over with great effort, saw a boat chasing him, immediately realized that something was wrong, and told the guards to continue to speed up.

"Fire the arrows!" Yu Jin ordered loudly.The soldiers bent their bows and set up arrows, aimed at the boat in front of them and began to release arrows.The river flows very fast. Although Cao Cao's navy has undergone such training, it is still difficult for them to adapt to the fact that they are from the north.A lot of bows and arrows were shot, but not many could be shot into the boat.

Huang Gai laughed loudly: "These northerners are really stupid, don't worry about them, just keep rowing!" The two guards who had been lying down in the cabin hurriedly got up and started rowing again.

Seeing that the archers were useless at all, Yu Jin was furious!He stretched out his hand and snatched the bow and arrow of a soldier beside him, bent the bow and set the arrow, aiming at a Jiangdong army who was paddling.With a release of his right hand, the arrow flew towards the man quickly.Yu Jin didn't stop shooting, the second arrow aimed at the other one, and he also let go.As the two bows and arrows moved forward and backward, two screams were heard. The soldiers who were struggling to shake the oar suddenly stopped their movements and fell into the cabin.

Huang Gai was shocked, and hurriedly stabilized the boat, bent over, enduring the pain, took the oars and continued.The strong southeast wind blows head-on, and the people who blow it can't stand.Fortunately, Huang Gai had learned some water skills and was able to hold the boat steady.Yu Jin's walking Ke has come to the front.A few hook ropes were thrown over, holding Huang Gai's warship tightly.Huang Gai was helpless. If he jumped into the water wearing a battle armor, he would be able to pull himself underwater with only a few hundred catties.

Holding the sword in his hand, Yu Jin saw the Jiangdong general in the boat: "Where is Huang Gai? Where is Huang Gai?"

Huang Gai rolled his eyes, and hurriedly said tremblingly: "General, spare my life, I don't know! He asked me to put on his armor and ran away! General, spare my life!"

Yu Jin glanced around. Except for this small boat, there were no other boats on the entire river. Looking at Huang Gai, he said, "How dare you lie to me! You are Huang Gai!" Yu Jin never gave Huang Gai another chance, Raising his hand, he raised the sword high, and before Huang Gai could speak, the sword slashed on Huang Gai's shoulder.Huang Gai screamed in pain.He didn't say anything anymore, since he was recognized, he would fight them.

Huang Gai jumped up suddenly, drew his sword from his waist, and slashed at Yu Jin as well.Yu Jin was so angry that he had nowhere to vent it, when Huang Gai bumped into the muzzle of the gun.In terms of the starting battle, Huang Gai may not be Yu Jin's opponent, but in the water and on the boat, Yu Jin's performance is greatly restricted.Old Huang Gaijiu has good water quality in the south of the Yangtze River, and he still has a slight advantage.

But after all, people are old and injured.After a few rounds, Huang Gai couldn't hold on anymore.Seeing Yu Jin stabbing with a sword, he had nowhere to hide.Huang Gai took a step back reflexively, and fell into the water under his feet.Rolling Yangtze River, mighty and mighty.The heavy armor dragged the yellow cover and began to sink into the water.Huang Gai struggled a few times, his head sank as soon as it was exposed.

Seeing Huang Gai bubbling in the distance, Yu Jin was still furious: "Run into it, hit Huang Gai to death!"
