Chapter 356 Zhou Yu's Backhand

Chapter 356 Zhou Yu's Backhand

Zhou Yu was keenly aware of the changes in the Jingzhou navy, and so was Zhuge Liang who was not far behind him.

"Hey, this battle is difficult!"

Zhuge Liang sighed, he couldn't figure out what method Meng Chen used to increase the combat power of the Jingzhou navy in a short period of time.

Lu Su seemed to have also noticed something strange, so he was about to step forward to say something, but before he could move his feet, Zhuge Liang stopped him and shook his head at him.

"We can all see, let alone Gongjinhu?" Zhuge Liang said in a low voice, and then pulled Lu Su back to the cabin.

A big battle is about to take place, and they will bring unnecessary troubles if they stay on the deck. Instead of this, it is better to hide in the cabin and be more leisurely.

"Kong Ming, this battle..." Lu Su closed his mouth immediately after he finished speaking.

In terms of preparation materials, if Lu Su was ranked second, no one in Jiangdong would dare to be number one.

But in terms of commanding troops to fight, Lu Su was far behind Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang.

"Gongjin's dream will definitely come true, but the price and result are far from what Gongjin thought before the war."

Zhuge Liang said something lightly, and then began to close his eyes and meditate. The shouting and killing outside the cabin seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Lu Su shook his head. No matter how much the price was paid, as long as this battle can be won, the voice of Jiangdong's surrender faction will disappear temporarily.

The confrontation of the water battle is different from the land battle, but its tragic degree is not bad at all!

As the distance between the two sides continued to narrow, the archers on both sides began to rain arrows on each other frantically.

Although most of the arrows fell into the river, they couldn't stop the red-eyed soldiers.

In addition, ship collisions between the two sides in water battles are even more common. If you want to completely defeat the opponent, boarding battles are essential.

"Crash at full speed!" Cai Mao didn't hesitate at the moment. When the two ships met, he chose to collide without hesitation.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Bow to bow, neither side retreated.

"kill!"

For a moment, the ships that collided with each other erupted with loud shouts of killing, and the hand-to-hand combat was still going on.

Cai Mao's boat was not on the front line. If he, the general, was beheaded, the [-] Jingzhou navy would be in chaos.

The same is true for Zhou Yu. Although the fight ahead is in full swing, the boat he is on is cruising on the edge of the battlefield.

"Captain, the Jingzhou army ships are dominant, if this continues..." It was Chen Pu who spoke, and as a veteran, he naturally saw the advantages and disadvantages of the battlefield.

"The more the better, otherwise the fireboat prepared by the governor will be in vain." Zhou Yu said lightly, he had sufficient preparations for this battle.

Due to the superiority of the Jingzhou army, Cai Mao continued to deploy combat power to the warring waters.

The Jingzhou Navy, which entered the battlefield later, also chose a head-to-head battle.

As a result, a large number of Jingzhou naval vessels were mixed with a small number of Jiangdong naval vessels.

Although the Jingzhou naval battle has the advantages of ships and numbers, it cannot defeat the opponent.

In this way, Cai Mao invested almost all the troops around him, and on the wide river, the ships of both sides suddenly gathered together.

And Zhou Yu was waiting for such an opportunity!

"Order Huang Gai to release the fire boat!" Zhou Yu's expression changed, and the corners of his mouth rose sharply.

Not long after, light boats sailed out from the rear of the Jiangdong Navy. The bows of the boats were equipped with huge barbed nails, while the hulls were covered with various fire starters.

Huang Gai took the lead, standing on the bow of the foremost ship, at this moment he was shirtless, although the wind was like a knife, Huang Gai didn't care at all.

The speed of the small boat was very fast, and it did not go directly towards the chaotic battlefield, but divided into two waves and detoured towards the left and right wings of the battlefield.

Due to the blind spot caused by the chaotic battlefield, Cai Mao did not discover these small boats at the first time, and at the same time lost the opportunity to issue a warning.

When Huang Gai led the fireboat to the predetermined location, he immediately shouted: "Light it up!"

In an instant, the flames on both sides of the battlefield were billowing with thick smoke, and it was too late when Cai Mao realized it!
Under the control of the Jiangdong soldiers, the fire boat rammed into the Jingzhou army's ship at high speed, and the iron nails on its head ensured that it could stick to the hull without any scruples.

All of a sudden, the entire river was full of smoke, and the wooden hull was engulfed by the fire boat at this moment. From three or five boats on the edge to dozens of boats in the center, the entire river quickly burned.

Although the soldiers of both sides withdrew from the battle in an orderly manner, there was no possibility of fighting against the wind.

The soldiers of the Jingzhou Navy rushed into the river, and the moment they entered the water, the bitterly cold water quickly turned their limbs numb.

"Quick, send a fast boat to rescue." Cai Mao yelled.

But the lieutenant beside him hesitated, not knowing how to express it for a moment!
"What are you still doing?" Cai Mao shouted angrily.

"General, just now General Zhang took all the clippers away, we..." The deputy general was pushed to the ground by Cai Mao halfway through his words.

At present, the fire is raging in the battle area, and the big ship will inevitably be burned if it enters rashly. Cai Mao can only watch carefully if he has a fast ship.

"This... this..." Cai Mao panicked, it doesn't matter if he loses the battle, but if the loss is too large, he will not be able to escape the disposal of the military law.

Just when Cai Mao was at a loss, there was a sound of horns not far behind him.

"Woooooo!"

Cai Mao turned around and looked, and suddenly saw Liu Rengui driving a clipper to reinforce Liu Rengui!
"Report! General Liu sent an order to go around the battlefield and go straight to the main formation of the Jiangdong Navy." After confirming that the semaphore was correct, the semaphore soldier immediately reported to Cai Mao.

As soon as the words fell, Liu Rengui's fast boat quickly passed by Cai Mao's boat, without a trace of stopping.

"Send an order to bypass the battlefield, General Liu, who fell into the water, will be rescued." Cai Mao took a deep breath and issued the general order.

Zhou Yu stood at the bow of the boat, watching the Xiliang Army's formation without blinking his eyes. When he saw the arrival of new reinforcements, he shook his head helplessly.

"Mingjin retreat!" Zhou Yu ordered without hesitation.

Although this battle did not achieve its goal, such a result can be used to seal the mouth of the Lord and faction.

However, the appearance of Liu Zishuai flag made Zhou Yu very puzzled.

In the Xiliang army, apart from Cai Mao and the beheaded Zhang Yun, he has not heard of any other navy generals.

But the appearance of this general surnamed Liu completely destroyed his plan.

The Jiangdong water army came and went quickly, Cai Mao also learned a lot of wisdom, after the Jiangdong water army retreated, he commanded the ships to approach the battlefield cautiously.

At dusk, when Cai Mao appeared in front of Mengchen dejectedly with the battle damage, he was ready to accept the military law.

"My lord, the last general..." Cai Mao just spoke, but was not interrupted by Meng Chen.

"Degui doesn't need to blame himself, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, so I can appease General Zhang's family!"
