Follow General Cao to mix the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 396 Dabnew, Wind Wall!

Water battles these days are not as complicated as the battle line formations of later generations. They are just a variant close to land battles, and they are still fierce. If you attack the opponent's ship, you will kill the opponent. If you don't have two left, you win.

However, water battles are still water battles after all. Land battles are fought in formations, and water battles are fought with ships. When ship-destroying weapons were not so powerful, ramming was still the mainstream of ship-destroying methods, so a big taboo in water battles is Don't easily expose your side to the enemy, or you will hit the corner!
And in terms of configuration, the Qingzhou fleet is too lacking. Wang Hou has a hundred warships, only 60 meters to 60 meters of large ships, while Soochow has a giant ship with a double bottom and three layers of small sails that is [-] meters long and more than [-] meters wide. Overlord boats also have small sampans that are only a few meters long and can rotate flexibly. Now the Qingzhou army is obviously helpless against these sampan fireboats. Under Zhou Yu's stunned gaze, these menacing Qingzhou warships released a burst of stones. Then, being forced by this group of fire boats, they hung up the sails in a hurry, pulled up the anchor, turned the bow and fled.

That's okay too?In the stunned wait and see, Zhou Yu hesitated for a few minutes, but Zhou Yu still couldn't make a decision. After all, he was miserable last time by Wang Hou pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger!Now he can't decide whether the Qingzhou army is real, or it's another trick of Wang Hou.

However, just as he was hesitating, the heavy and huge Qingzhou warships were not much less flexible than those small boats. Seeing the fire ships approaching, these warships quickly completed a U-turn after pulling the anchor, and withdrew their sails. He fled hastily.

It was really dangerous and dangerous. The two ships in the center were almost burned by these small sampan fireboats. The Qingzhou Fleet completed the tactical maneuver and increased its speed.

Zhou Yu hesitated here, but Sun Shangxiang didn't hesitate. He followed behind the fire boat. It was a lot bigger than 100 meters, and it was about [-] meters long. It was also a low long boat with a hard sail, and it was chasing quickly and hurriedly. That said, these ships all have a characteristic, the bow is specially covered with metal sharp corners, and behind the sharp corners is a solid keel made of a whole tree, making these ships like pointed war hammers, full of impact .

The call is not for nothing, it is to rush!

Standing on the prow of a warship, a small white foot wearing straw sandals is stepping on a strong ram, holding a bow in her left hand, and the tips of her hair are fluttering with the river wind. Miss Sun is as handsome as a goddess like that.

During the tense chase, I unknowingly ran out at 500 meters, and while gliding downwind, the formation of the scattered Qingzhou ships also quietly changed. The three Qingzhou ships that were originally rushing to the forefront slowly moved towards the width of the entire fleet. The plane spread out left and right, and gradually fell behind the entire fleet. The fastest fireship was even on the same level as the main battleship of Qingzhou on the edge.

But at this moment, something strange happened!
The rushing fireboat suddenly trembled violently, and then suddenly slowed down. During the violent tremor, it maintained a parallel speed with the lagging Qingzhou warship, as if being blocked by a certain Dabnew skill of Happy Fengnan. One stuck, followed by a second fireboat, a third and a fourth.

The lagging Qingzhou battleship was getting slower and slower, and more and more fireships were also intercepted and gathered among the three ships.It’s not that they didn’t pay the price. The laggard intermediate battleship was hit by more than a dozen fire boats. Even with the protective layer applied, the wooden warship was burned to the point of crackling and burning, and quickly burned into a huge pillar of fire in the flames. like that.But with the burning, hundreds of fireboats that attacked in the first wave were all stopped just like that!
and!A large number of fire boats piled up and burned, and Sun Shangxiang's squadron chasing after them was unlucky.

"Stop the boat! Lower the sails and stop the boat!"

The fiery wind even rushed to the face, looking at the burning and crackling fireboat in front of her, no longer caring about being handsome, Sun Shangxiang screamed in panic with her pale face, and yelled in disbelief.

"How is it possible? Is that old thief Wang really able to stop these fire boats? Hurry up and stop the boat!"

It is also true to say that driving at high speeds cannot exceed the speed limit. It is also true to drive a boat. It is easy to slow down with inertia, but it is difficult to stop. Ahead, a Soochow warship crashed into the fire fleet amidst the screams of the sergeants, and was burned immediately. The fire boat like the Beijing Roast Duck Stove was burning so hot that it was about to turn into a roast duck. I was so anxious that I was about to cry. I looked angrily at the Qingzhou Fleet behind the wall of fire, which also slowed down and dangled on the river. Gritting her teeth hard, Sun Shangxiang also threw away her embarrassing bow, swayed her arms from side to side, took a run-up with her long legs, and ran towards the stern at high speed, and then jumped into the Yangtze River with a plop.

Does Wang Hou know magic tricks?

Of course not!The seemingly miraculous scene, but the principle couldn’t be more simple. Each of the three lagging boats has shed more than 200 meters of thigh-thick iron chains. The iron chain net formed by three thigh-thick iron chains is also tied with a hob on the net. Wood nailed with sharp nails like meat, the three boats pulled apart, and the iron chain dragged on the bottom of the river straightened, forming an interception net on the river surface. up.

This move has not even been out of date for a long time. It is not a tactic that is too advanced. After Cao Wei destroyed Shu, in order to prevent Wei from attacking from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, Wu also set up iron chains to block the Yangtze River. The Western Byzantine Empire defended the Bosphorus In the Sri Lanka Strait, iron chains have also been set up to block the sea.

In "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Huang Gai's bitter plan, Zhou Yu pulled out the big cupping pot for Mr. Cao, but Wang Hou knew it clearly, how could he not guard against him?
Behind them, the sound of military drums was also rumbling, but compared to the majesty of the Qingzhou Navy just now, it always felt a little weak.

There are more than 2000 Wu troops in the warship team. Even if Zhou Yu hesitates, he has to march. As a general, he can't accept the result of doing nothing and watching more than 2000 of his subordinates burn to death and drown. Shouting the chant, he rushed heavily and slowly to the line of fire blocking the river.

Zhou Yu couldn't help but be filled with annoyance as he watched the weedles crash into the fire boats like moths flying into the flames. He knew that Wang Hou, the little thief, followed Cao Cao, and his nest was full of scheming traitors. !He was foolish enough to fall into his trick of showing weakness again, and the hand holding the handle of the knife was clenched so tightly that it rattled.

But even though Wang Hou had been pushed to a new height in his heart, Zhou Yu still underestimated Wang Hou's three-axe, just when his attention was all on the burning line of fire and the subordinates who sent the boat to rescue, in his ear, A burst of violent drumming came from the north again, around the edge of the interceptor ship, the Qingzhou Fleet, like a long snake, went upstream and cut across the edge of its own huge building fleet.

Full of astonishment, Zhou Yu looked at the Qingzhou pointed battleship more than 100 meters away from him. Zhou Yu even vaguely saw the lewd and wretched figure of Wang Hou standing on the bow. On the side of the Qingzhou ship, which is completely different from the Jiangnan ship, portholes were lifted up one by one, and then one after another of the black steel pipes were pushed to expose their heads and aimed at themselves.

what is this?Ballista?

In Zhou Yu's astonishment, the sky was cleared thousands of miles away, and there was a deafening sound of muffled thunder. Immediately afterwards, the heavy and huge ship under him trembled violently.
