Prancing Horse Xiliang

Chapter 309: The Dog That Bereaved
Hu Feng was not in a hurry to order an attack, but after passing ten large ships, he suddenly stopped shouting.

"Attack!"

In an instant, thousands of torches lit up among the reeds taller than people by the river bank, illuminating the nearby river as bright as day. Amidst the chaotic shouts of killing, three thousand soldiers immediately supported the fishing boat, The raft killed the past.

"finally come!"

On the big boat in the middle of the first row, Gan Ning turned his head and saw the ambush soldiers, instead of being surprised, he let out a long sigh of relief.

Whether or not Hangu Pass can be captured, the most important link is to lure Hu Feng's army out of the pass.

If Hu Feng doesn't come to rob the food, the plan made by the lord and the military adviser will definitely be aborted.

Fortunately, he succeeded in luring the enemy, and deliberately exposed the sack containing grain to the outside, and finally lured Hu Feng out.

"Stop the boat and prepare to fight!"

Seeing a bunch of messy fishing boats and rafts rushing towards him, Gan Ning couldn't help but smirk, he raised his right arm and let out a shout, and hundreds of torches were lit on the thirty big boats soon.

As for the fifty Jinfan thieves who had been waiting in full force, they immediately jumped off the big boat and sank into the water.

Dozens of fishing boats and [-] rafts were rushed over quickly, and the fastest fishing boats slammed into several big boats in the middle, and Hu Feng almost vomited blood as a result.

If the warships of the Xiliang Navy are elephants, then these fishing boats are pheasants and local dogs.

When the fishing boat hit the big boat, the big boat didn't even shake, but the fishing boat almost capsized.

A soldier standing on the side of the boat was unsteady and fell directly into the river, thumping and screaming in horror, but soon sank after a few bubbles, and there was no more movement. The other soldiers who watched were terrified, My heart gasped.

Damn it, if it fell in the middle of the night, there's no way out.

Usually when you go out to fish by boat, even if someone falls, there will be soldiers who can swim into the water to save them.

But now, there is no time to save people.

"kill!"

Hu Feng stood behind, waving a saber and shouting loudly.

"General, can't go up!"

The soldiers in front were full of big men anxiously, wanting to jump up and scold their mothers.

When the scouts watched from a distance, they could only see that the warships of the Xiliang Navy were large ships, but it was impossible to see how tall the ships were and how deep the draft was. The warship is a bit ridiculously high.

It was full of food, and most of it sank into the water, and the part of the big boat above the water was still more than ten feet high.

It's so fucking high, how can it climb up.

The soldiers on the fishing boat jumped anxiously, but the sailors on the big boat didn't let go of this great opportunity.

Whoosh...

There are archers with bows and arrows, and they release arrows condescendingly.

At such a close distance, even a pig has no reason to shoot.

Amidst the miserable howls, soldiers crowded on the fishing boats and rafts near the big ship were shot in by arrows, howled and fell into the river flowing eastward. Hu Fengjun, who came to sneak attack, immediately panicked. god.

Water is no better than land, and you can find places to hide from arrows.

Soldiers huddled on the small fishing boats and rafts. When they saw that there were still archers in the Xiliang navy, their first reaction was to avoid the rain of arrows. It was like making dumplings with the soldiers on the raft, and they fell into the river with a plop, which immediately caused chaos.

Without Gan Ning's naval assault, Hu Fengjun who came to sneak attack almost directly fry the pot.

Hu Feng didn't know water warfare at first, let alone how it was fought. He just thought that Gan Ning had few soldiers, and his own force was several times that of Gan Ning's navy. As long as he got enough ships and ambushed, he would surely Defeat Gan Ning's water army.

Unexpectedly, water battles are more troublesome than land battles, and the requirements for time, location, and harmony are ten times more stringent than infantry and cavalry battles. Water only, but the gap on the warships made Hu Feng realize that he Made a mistake stupider than a pig.

The warships of the Xiliang Navy are not only large, but also too tall.

Most of it was eaten into the water, and the part above the water was still more than ten feet high.

Damn, is this still a boat?Damn it, how could the Xiliang navy build the warship so tall.

However, at this time, I have no time to review my stupidity.

"Steady, don't mess up!"

Seeing that the Xiliang water army only shot a round of sparse arrows, the more than two thousand troops were completely in disarray, and soldiers fell into the river continuously. Hu Feng almost vomited blood, brandishing a saber and shouting sharply, " Don't fucking squeeze, block the arrows with a shield, climb aboard the big ship with a rope, and kill these sons of bitch sailors."

But it was useless, the panic of the soldiers could not be stopped at all.

The water army has much stricter requirements on the quality of its soldiers than infantry and cavalry.

A [-] mob may disperse a thousand well-trained infantry, but [-] landlubbers will never be able to do anything to a hundred water thieves who are proficient in water, and they may even be wiped out by a hundred water thieves.

The Xiliang army under Hu Feng's command is absolutely sturdy, but that's only on land.

Once in the water, once the battle is lost, it will inevitably cause panic and cause disastrous consequences.

Knowing how to row a boat and catch a fish doesn't mean much, not many even know how to swim.

Usually it was nothing, but when the battlefield was moved to the water, these landlubbers immediately panicked. Dozens of fishing boats and rafts crowded together, shaking to and fro, and the soldiers couldn't stand still, and fell into the water one after another.

Compared with the chaos of Hu Fengjun, the Xiliang navy is much more orderly.

Although Gan Ning's navy was not as good as Jingzhou's navy, they hadn't fought any serious battles.

But after more than a year of training, the water quality is at least much better than the infantry under Hu Feng's command. It is not a problem to swim twenty or thirty miles in the Yellow River at a time. No matter how the warship shakes, he can stand firmly .

It was the first actual combat, and I was a little nervous.

But when he saw the enemy army in an ambush mess up first, he immediately relaxed.

"Go to hell!"

Gan Ning jumped onto a fishing boat, and like a lion bursting out to hurt people, he swung his knife and cut the three closest soldiers into six pieces. stand up.

"Ah ah ah..."

Amidst the exclamation, the remaining ten or so soldiers on the fishing boat immediately screamed in shock. They felt dizzy, their feet seemed to lose weight, and they fell into the cabin as the fishing boat shook violently, rolling back and forth, standing on their feet at all. Can't get up.

As for the weapon in his hand, it had already been thrown into the river.

Soon Gan Ning was the only one left in the boat, and more than a dozen soldiers all fell into the river.

But at this moment, several sailor soldiers jumped up.

"sail!"

Gan Ning shouted loudly, several soldiers immediately picked up the oars and slammed into the water.

The fishing boats shot out like arrows, and rammed among the crowded fishing boats and rafts. All the soldiers on the fishing boats and rafts that were hit fell into the river, causing even greater chaos.

At this time, something happened that frightened the chaotic Hu Feng soldiers even more.

Several fishing boats and a dozen rafts overturned inexplicably, and all the soldiers on board became dogs in the water. Finally, someone noticed something was wrong and yelled in panic, "No, there are people in the water."

The already flustered soldiers panicked even more, wishing they could put on a pair of wings and fly to the shore.

This goddamn water is no place for people to stay at all, there are black lights and blind people, even in the water there are Gan Ning's people, how can this battle be fought, there is no way to fight, the Xiliang army, which has always been tough and good at fighting, has never I've been useless.

Some soldiers scolded God angrily, but it didn't help.

When we got to the water, even if we wanted to escape, we had nowhere to escape, so we could only stamp our feet anxiously.

In less than a stick of incense, at least half of the soldiers fell into the river to feed the fish.

Few of these pawns knew how to swim, and they fell into the river blindly, with almost zero chance of surviving.

More Xiliang sailors jumped off the fishing boats and rafts, and followed Gan Ning on a rampage on the river. There were panic shouts and miserable howls everywhere. The river was already stained with blood. arrive.

The soldiers behind rowed their fishing boats and rafts desperately, trying to escape to the shore.

At this time, who still remembers robbery.

Even if all of Gan Ning's naval forces disembarked from the warships, no one would bother to rob them.

"Come on!"

Seeing that it was not going well, Hu Feng didn't care about his heartache. He immediately ordered his soldiers to turn around and fled to the shore in a fishing boat.

By the time two or three hundred defeated soldiers had been collected, the Xiliang water army had already chased them down with fishing boats and rafts.

Hu Feng immediately spat out a mouthful of old blood. Damn, it’s just too bullying. The fishing boats and rafts that he collected with great difficulty were all used to recruit the enemy. Chest tightness.

Then look at the defeated soldiers who are still in shock around them, how can they still have half a bit of fighting spirit.

Fortunately, there were five hundred infantry on the shore, otherwise it would be troublesome.

However, of the [-] soldiers and horses who came, only less than [-] remained.

In less than half an hour, more than 2000 soldiers and horses were damaged, and the loss was not insignificant.

Although there were archers in Gan Ning's water army, the number of people who were actually shot to death by bows and arrows was no more than 300. The thief overturned the boat and drowned.

Hu Feng's face twitched, and his heart was bleeding.

Hangu Pass had only [-] soldiers and horses, and almost half of them were lost in a single battle.

If the old uncle knew about this, he would have to peel his own skin.

However, now is not the time to be distressed.

Gan Ning had already led the navy to hunt him down, so he didn't dare to hesitate.

"go!"

Without saying a word, Hu Feng immediately took the 200 soldiers on the shore and more than [-] remnants and defeated soldiers, and fled to Hangu Pass like a bereaved dog, otherwise he would be in trouble if he was entangled by the Xiliang water army.

Gan Ning sneered a few times, but instead of pursuing, he waved his hand and went back to the big boat.
