The Age of Lords Reborn

Chapter 646 Tactics Supreme (Subscribe)

In the vast Poyang Lake, two huge naval forces face each other from a distance.

Because of the distance, the two sides could only see a black shadow on the opposite side, but each other tacitly sent out their warships to test it out.

Zhou Yu chose to send [-] large and small three-winged warships, and Han Zhao led the troops to attack.On the other side, the Yuanmeng navy also sent a Song general who had followed Liu Zheng to rebel against him.

"Without binoculars, this battle is really boring to watch."

Because it was the first battle with Shangdu Yuanmeng's army, Fatty, Ruoshui and others all came. As a result, it took almost half a day to enter Poyang Lake with the army, and they didn't even see the Yuanmeng navy's face.

"The last time the copy was enjoyable, the cannons bombarded non-stop and sank one ship in minutes." Ruoshui also curled his lips, and began to recall the scene of the previous naval battle with the Japanese kingdom.

"So you can become a lord, but you can't be a general." Mo Xiaobai and Chen Xi were also beside him, and said with a smile immediately: "Look at the writing and four three two one, they are all around Gongjin for advice. "

Ruoshui and Fatty felt helpless when they heard the words, and then they dragged Ah-Dai to the other side, far away from Mo Xiaobai.

Just as the few people were talking, the battle in the distant battle waters had already started.

Han Zhao had been by Zhou Yu's side for a long time, and at this moment, as a battlefield commander, he was not stage-frightened. Twenty warships formed a formation of wild goose feathers on the river, with the small boat as the vanguard on both wings, and himself at the rear.

Compared with the warships on his side that lined up slowly, the Yuanmeng warships on the other side spread out like a long snake. More than 20 warships were divided into two rows, and each row consisted of eleven or twelve ships going hand in hand.

It seemed that he was going to push forward step by step, directly flattening Han Zhao on the lake.

"Disperse!"

Seeing his opponent's tricks, Han Zhao immediately gave the first step order.The two wings began to change, more precisely, the angle of spread was nearly doubled again.

If someone looked at it from a high altitude, they would find that many three-winged warships had spread apart at this time.Also because the spread of the two wings was too large, Han Zhao, who was in the rear, was directly exposed to the Yuan army's warship.

Seeing that the Song army had changed its formation like this, General Yuan Meng's face immediately showed joy: "Rush forward, and aim the bow and arrow at the big ship for me. If you defeat him, you can win the water battle on the battlefield."

As the Yuanmeng warship began to advance rapidly, many sailors had drawn their bowstrings.

However, Han Zhao was not stupid, how could he just stay there as a target, and immediately let the three warships in the rear turn to turn together.

As Han Zhao turned, the Yuanmeng warship also had to turn.

In this way, the formation of the long snake was instantly pulled into an irregular curved shape.And the top of the curved arc, that is, the outermost warships, were 'revealed' just like that.

"The tactics are so vulgar, it's no wonder that they lost to Yuan Meng if they defended against natural danger." Han Zhao shook his head when he saw the opponent's battleship formation, and at the same time asked the flag bearer to issue a third order.

Yan Ling Formation, take it!
When the warships at the front of the two wings received the military order, they also understood Han Zhao's intentions.

Regardless of other opponents, only approach the three exposed enemy ships.

As part of the scattered three-winged warships gradually gathered in the rear, the two small-winged warships directly broke into the rear of the Yuanmeng warships by virtue of their small size and extremely fast speed.

They were not going to kill the enemy, but to separate the four exposed warships along a cutting line to attract their attention, so that the four warships completely broke away from their one-line formation.

The performance of the two small wing warships was almost perfect, successfully pinning down the four targeted enemy ships.

At the same time, on the other six mid-wing warships that surrounded them, the small trebuchets had already started the first round of projection.

"Boom boom boom"

Outflanking him from behind, and beating him up if caught.

Two rounds of throwing stones were fired, followed by the approaching spear throwing. Short spears and spears were thrown out from the center-wing warship. The Yuanmeng sailors on the enemy ship who hurried to the stern to meet the enemy fell down before they could start to fight back.

"Kill it!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the commanders on several warships immediately ordered to attack the dock.

With a slightly taller hull than the Yuanmeng battleship, it can jump over without using ropes after approaching, and the four enemy ships stopped completely in a short while.

Many Yuanmeng soldiers were either killed or jumped into the lake to save their lives.

The change in the rear line can be said to have happened in a blink of an eye. The Yuanmeng warship on the flank originally wanted to rescue them, but before they could move, they were restrained by the other three warships, so they could only choose to concentrate on dealing with the opponent in front of them.

At the same time, Han Zhao led the big ship in the rear, but after turning around, it resumed going straight again.Looking at the almost fragmented Yuanmeng water battle formation, he unceremoniously approached the warship where the opponent's main general was located from the side.

.........

After the battle in the front, from time to time, it will be sent back to the army's main line through the rear supervisory boat.

From the time when Han Zhao met the enemy, he changed formation, confronted, suppressed, and finally won. Although he couldn't see clearly, everyone could get a general idea through the description of the messenger.

Tactics!
In addition to building more ships, training more troops, and then gathering together to fight against seas of people, the Yuanmeng navy did not have more sophisticated tactics in detail.

Perhaps Liu Zheng, who was the founder of the Yuanmeng water army, had a lot of experience in water warfare, but he didn't pass on his skills, or more likely, he didn't want to pass it on at all.

After all, there are such things as teaching apprentices and starving masters to death, no matter what industry you are in.

In contrast, Huimengke's water battle is a proper hard power.

The warships are good, the soldiers are strong, and the tactics are clear.

"Normal operation, a small victory is no big deal." After hearing the battle report, Mo Xiaobai seemed very calm, because this kind of local tentative water battle itself is not what Yuan Meng is good at.

The opponent is willing to fight such a battle first according to the fighting routine, and Mo Xiaobai guesses that Yuan Meng has no hope of winning.

Knowing that we can't win and still fighting, and keeping our attention on Poyang Lake, what exactly do Yuanmeng people want to do?
Mo Xiaobai rested his chin in thought, because this battle was not like the previous layout.In the previous Jiangxi and Wuyi battlefields, he was the one who dominated the battlefield. Li Heng and Zhang Hongfan were all led away. Now that the Mongolian army is marching westward, the two sides have set up their positions to fight head-to-head.

In this case, it is difficult for Mo Xiaobai to guess what Yuanmeng people will do.

Before Mo Xiaobai could figure it out, there was a new battle report ahead.The Yuanmeng sent another fifty warships to try to keep Han Zhao, who had already fought a battle, in Poyang Lake.

Zhou Yu had already prepared for this, and also sent reinforcements.But this time he only dispatched ten warships of the Great Song Dynasty. The purpose was not to fight again, but to cover Han Zhao's withdrawal.

"Is this going to be withdrawn?"

"Fight well, why don't you take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"

Both [-] and the writer were puzzled, but Zhou Yu didn't explain to the two of them. He turned around and walked towards Mo Xiaobai: "My lord, Yuan Meng has increased his troops in batches, and it seems that he wants to lure us and the generals." With the army pressing up, Yu thought it would be better to retreat today before finding out Yuan Meng's intentions."
