Follow General Cao to mix the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 395 North Navy VS South Navy

It was a lot of fun to compete with a high-smart businessman. This time, under the premise of Zhou Yu's knowledge, Wang Hou put him together again. He rowed the boat all the way back, and he was very happy. If the tail hadn't degenerated Well, maybe he would have to wag his tail at this time.

Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, Tao Qian, Gongsun Zan, Lu Bu!

These heroes in troubled times may be good or evil, rampant or cunning, but they all have a common feature!

confidence!

If you don't even believe in yourself, you don't need to talk about leading the counselors and generals with different minds, thousands of soldiers in this troubled world, and forging your own hegemony!To use the analogy of two people, that is Zang Ba and Zhang Yan, they don't have world ambitions, so now they have to be under Wang Hou's tent, listening to Wang Hou grinning.

Uh...Although Wang Hou himself is a virtuous man, and he listened to Cao's grinning under Mr. Cao's tent, but at least he is now a local warlord, and in the confrontation with Zhou Yu just now, Wang Hou hit hard. It was Zhou Yu's self-confidence!
Originally, the navy was Jiangdong's trump card, even more powerful than Danyang soldiers!In the battle of Chibi, Mr. Cao was so anxious that he couldn't get across the river. It was the navy of Soochow. However, under Wang Hou's arrogant attitude and subtle warning just now, Zhou Yu, who had originally played the navy as a trump card, was not in the mood now. Confident, I began to doubt whether the trump card in my hand could stand up!

And even if Zhou Yu knew that Wang Hou was planning to do something powerful, he still had to fall for it, and it didn't work!His troops were weak, and he lost [-] main forces in the Battle of Piling. He returned to Jianye to replenish his troops, and with Han Dang as part of his troops, his maximum strength was no more than [-], but he had already tried it. Twenty thousand Wu troops are not ten thousand Qingzhou troops. At this time, Wang Hou also received additional troops, reaching more than [-] troops, and he could not stand on land.

And the water warfare in this era is actually moving the army to fight on the boat. With the water and the ability to get used to the bumps, the combat effectiveness of the Wu army has been strengthened on the boat, while the Qingzhou army, which is not familiar with water warfare, will be weakened, and Wang Hou is against the current. As for the upward attack, against the current and half against the wind, the impact of sailing is definitely not as good as his own, and the disadvantaged party is all on Wang Hou.

Sometimes disadvantages can also be advantages!As he just said, in the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu Chu and the Yangtze River competed for supremacy, the Chu State Navy won a small victory, and lost a big defeat!why?It's all because Wu State is located in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. If they won the battle, the Chu army's navy could not run up the current.

If everything goes well, it’s okay to beat Wang Hou and Chen Deng’s old boy debut combination with all their might, but if the whole army loses the battle and the water army is eaten by Wang Hou, Soochow is not the one who seized Piling’s granary There is a problem, it is very likely to be wiped out by the group, and Wang Hou can go up against the current with the navy and attack his old nest in Jianye.

But even if the risk is so great, this battle has to be fought!After losing the 200 million shi army rations in Piling, what did the officials of the Sun family in Jianye eat?What do the more than 4 Chaisang troops fighting on the front line eat?Just relying on the little inventory in Stone City, it will not be able to support the autumn harvest next year. Without food, the huge Soochow will be in chaos.

Moreover, it was Wang Hou who took the initiative to attack, and the initiative in the war did not belong to him!
Just as Zhou Gongjin was struggling, the Northern Army navy that had just anchored up against the current began to roar fiercely with the sound of war drums.

Whispering, Wang Hou returned to his own fleet, stood on the bow of the flagship Daocheng, arrogantly pulled out his command saber and swung it forward, baring his teeth and yelling.

"Beat the drums, march in!"

With the sound of splashing water, more than 20 oars protruded from the sides of the ship. With the fierce sound of the snare drum at the bow, the sharp-bottomed Qingzhou boat rushed forward like a centipede.

The sharp bow cut through the river, and more than a hundred Qingzhou warships approached like crucian carp crossing the river. At this time, Zhou Yu had already turned back to his own ship, looking at the dense armor array on the deck of the Qingzhou Army, while Looking around, Zhou Gongjin's handsome face was full of sternness.

On the deck beside him, the Jiangdong archer holding a bamboo bow grasped the bow and arrow on the back of his hand, his veins also popped up, and his breathing began to become short of breath.

However, going upstream and traveling to a distance of more than 100 meters from the Jiangdong ship array, suddenly, there was a heavy plop, but it suddenly occurred to me that the Qingzhou Army had broken down, and the dozen or so Qingzhou battleships that followed the front triangular formation advanced Unexpectedly, he tilted the sails and turned the rudder, turned the hull flexibly, and faced the Wu army with the side, and then amidst the whistling sound, the crackling stone formations like raindrops flew up, and hit the Ma Wu army fleet head-on.

Amidst the swaying and heavy noise, the specially ground sharpened stone bullets fell hard on the deck. Immediately, the deck wall was smashed open with a crackling sound, and the flying pieces of wood crackled and splashed out. The sharp wood veneer It just happened to be stuck in a Wu Jun's calf, and Wu Jun was holding his leg, and Wu Jun screamed desperately.

On the other side, amidst the whistling sound of an angry arrow shot by a strong crossbow, it clicked into the wooden wall, and the Wu Jun archers in the string behind the wall were pierced with candied haws, like grasshoppers on the string. , howling and spitting blood.

Rows of neat leather shields were lifted up, and heavy flying stones hit them. The shields were like lotus leaves on a rainy day, shaking one after another under the heavy blows. The guard holding the shield was stunned that his arm was broken, and he lay down screaming.

However, through the gap of the fallen soldiers, Zhou Yu's face was full of astonishment.

Not only was he stunned, but Sun Shangxiang was also stunned, looking at the Qingzhou warship approaching, he was dumbfounded for a moment, and the girl suddenly screamed excitedly.

"It turns out that these landlubbers don't know how to fight in water! Brother Kui Gongjin was worried for a long time! Ling Tong, you lead the fire boat team first, Lu Xun, you boy lead the scorpion afterward, and we also beat the drums to attack!"

"Hey! Miss!"

Panicked a lot, Zhou Yu hurriedly reached out to stop Sun Shangxiang, but before she finished speaking, the girl was as flexible as a monkey and fell directly from the third-floor ship.

"Great Governor!"

Seeing the direction Sun Shangxiang left, Ling Tong, whom she had named, turned his head helplessly to look at his father, while Ling Cao clasped his fists helplessly and asked Zhou Yu, took a look and then pulled the trebuchet, twisting The Qingzhou Marine Division carrying the ballista on board was loading the bullets, and pondered for a moment, Zhou Yu gritted his teeth and nodded fiercely.

"According to Missy's orders!"

"The last will obey!"

In the attack of Qingzhou's long-range weapons, the heavy war drums sounded fiercely in the Dongwu water army town, which was as dense as a city. It was like the cavalry fighting in Kaicheng. There were countless flat and long boats only a few meters or more than ten meters away. Pulling the hard sail, it rushed out like an arrow off the side.

Jiang Gan's bitter plan is fake, but the fire attack of the Chibi War should be real. Seeing the large and small warships rushing towards him, the Qingzhou ship that was coming across seemed to be in a panic. A large number of archers gathered on the deck. The arrows made crackled and shot at the boats. At the same time, the ballistas and trebuchets also turned their fire and rushed to hit the oncoming Soochow boats.

However, arrows like migratory locusts can only kill the crew, but cannot destroy the ships, and the shooting accuracy of the trebuchets and ballistas is too low. Two rounds of shooting out of thin air can only overturn a dozen small boats of the Wu army. One-fifth of the Wu army's warships.

And it seemed that the Qingzhou army didn't destroy it fast enough. Amidst the whirring sound, the soldiers of the Wu army actually ignited the boat by themselves, and immediately turned over and jumped off the boat.

Amidst the whistling sound, hundreds of small boats burned into big fireballs, and with the crackling of burning wood, they went straight to the Qingzhou boats drawn in horizontal rows and stabbed them fiercely. Looking at these huge fireballs, it was obvious that the sailors on the Qingzhou boats were also very angry. Panicked, even Zhou Yu, who was more than 100 meters away, could clearly hear the huge screams of fear.

Wang Hou really doesn't understand water warfare?
