King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 554
It's just in the south of Guangling County, not far from Jiangdong, to be precise, across from Jiangdong.The name of this place is Shatou Town. The Guangling Army is adjacent to the Yangtze River in the south, and the hinterland of Xuzhou is on the back. This Shatou Town is exactly the place facing the south of Guangling. A port in Haikou, since Yuan Shu and Sun Ce fell out, has become the first place for Sun Ce to go north, so Yuan Shu has transferred all the people here early and burned the village, but now Guangling has become Jiangdong. After Deng surrendered to Jiangdong, Shatou Town became the gathering place of Jiangdong navy in Guangling, and also an important place to guard the estuary of the Yangtze River.

Jiangdong sailors pride themselves on being number one in the world, of course, because their biggest opponent is Liu Biao’s Jingzhou sailors. The Chinese navy has become the eggplant of the frost, and it will be wilted, and the Jiangdong navy has been rampant in the Yangtze River since then, thinking that it has become the most powerful navy.

And on this day, Chen Wu, the newly promoted naval captain stationed in Shatou Town, was searching along the Yangtze River as usual, and happened to have walked out of the mouth of the Yangtze River. The small boat came quickly, and the soldiers on it were rowing like crazy, and Chen Wu, who was standing on the deck, immediately realized that something had happened when he saw this situation, and quickly shouted: "What's the matter, report it quickly! "

The sailor stopped his movements, dropped the oar in his hand, stood up on the boat and said to Chen Wu, "General, something is wrong! There is a group of pirates on the north sea, who have plundered a lot of people and want to go to them. !"

"What!" Chen Wu exclaimed, and said, "The pirates robbed the people!" If you say that the pirates robbed the big households, robbed the granaries, and even invited meat tickets to blackmail Chen Wu, he would believe that the pirates directly took the people away. Robbed?what?Pirates are also short of people?Still too much food to eat.

The sailor immediately said: "General, this matter is absolutely true. When XX came, that group of people was driving the people onto the boat! XX immediately rushed to report to the general!"

Chen Wu frowned, and immediately scolded: "Hmph! These thieves are so bold, don't they know that Guangling is already our Jiangdong land? How dare you mess with my Jiangdong navy! You want to die!" Chen Wu immediately waved his hand, Shouted: "Raise the sails, let me kill this group of pirates!"

"Promise!" The navy roared. If you want to say that the Jiangdong navy is not famous, Jiangdong is first-class in terms of shipbuilding technology and the quality of the navy. Jiangdong is also in the navy. He has put in a lot of effort, and this Chen Wu is not very old, but he also followed Sun Ce when Sun Ce was still under Yuan Shu's command, and then traveled to the east of the Yangtze River, taking his military exploits as a general, stationed in Shatou Town, At a young age, he followed Sun Ce, the bully, and admired Sun Ce very much, but also, like Sun Ce, his temper was not very good. It happened that he was the leader of the patrol here, and it was convenient. Looking at the coast, he wanted to kill from the back, and behind him was the Jiangdong Three Thousand Navy.

And just to the north of them, needless to say, it was Zhao Hu who brought his Sea Breeze Camp and just plundered several villages in Guangling, and transported the people to the boat. Guangling fought for years, and out of ten people survived, less than five , and most of them were in the city, and Zhao Hu didn't gain much. He felt bored, so he thought about going back to Qingzhou, and stopped looting. At this time, he was slowly sailing on the sea with his troops.

Just hearing "Boom, boom, boom..." a series of drums sounded, Zhao Hu was puzzled, and said: "What's going on, where are the drums!"

As soon as Zhao Hu finished speaking, he heard someone shouting: "General, Jiangdong water army appears behind our army!"

Zhao Hu raised his eyebrows and said without twitching, "Hehe, let me tell you, after so many days, it's time for the Jiangdong Navy to appear!"

Joining the army beside him persuaded: "General, my sea wind boat is fast, and if I drive to the maximum speed, I will definitely be able to throw this Jiangdong navy behind!"

As soon as Zhao Hu raised his hand, he immediately said: "No! This Jiangdong navy always claims to be number one in the world and is very arrogant. I will meet for a while to see how the number one navy in the world is doing. Sample!"

Joining the army anxiously said: "No, general. After all, this place is under the rule of the Jiangdong navy, maybe they will have reinforcements, but Jiangdong is also on good terms with the master now. It is not right for us to rob them, just go quickly. Don't fight with him!"

"Hmph!" Zhao Hu snorted coldly, and said, "I just want to see what this Jiangdong navy is capable of! Send an order!"

"Here!" The soldiers on the side shouted immediately, and Zhao Hu ordered: "Turn the bow of the boat and fight this Jiangdong water army!"

"Promise!" Zhao Hu gave an order, and the Sea Breeze Warship quickly rotated on the spot. The principle is also very simple. It only needs one of the two wheels of the Sea Breeze Warship, one rotates clockwise and the other counterclockwise, and the sea wind warship immediately turns back The ground was spinning very fast, and while spinning, Zhao Hu shouted: "Tabuster, get ready!"

Following Zhao Hu's order, the roof of the sea windboat was not searched. A trebuchet was quickly assembled under the operation of ten sailors. One sailor shouted "load!" The other sailor opened it immediately. A box full of stones. These stones are very smooth. They look like river stones. As a navy, it is also for the convenience of obtaining materials. You can’t carry a lot of stones every time you travel, right? Whether the block is big or small, I saw four soldiers slowly pulling the rope, while the two four soldiers in front of the stealing time were slowly pushing up a big tube. The ore is used, but for the trebuchet, he is the source of strength. He will really rely on his weight and use the principle of leverage, so that the trebuchet can throw this big stone into the sky and draw a perfect picture. The parabola is falling, no matter it is the power and range, but the arrow is incomparable, the lever of the trebuchet is turned down, and a soldier immediately takes out a pile of eating blocks and puts them on a bowl-shaped bowl on the head of the trebuchet. stuff inside.

The sea windboat stayed where it was, waiting for a rabbit, and after a while, he saw more than a dozen warships approaching Haiming slowly, and wrote a letter of Chen. Of course, Zhao Hu didn't know that the Jiangdong general was surnamed Chen. The general surnamed Li entered the range of the trebuchet, and Zhao Hu immediately roared, "Let it go!"

I can't help but say that before the Jiangdong water army met Zhao Hu face to face, it ushered in a burst of stone rain. The Jiangdong water army was originally high-spirited, thinking that the enemy would kill them, Chen Wu had already ordered the archers to get ready, Knowing this, he saw a small black spot rising into the sky in the distance. Like Zhao Hu, Chen Wu had never fought against the Youliao army at all. , and even said to have seen it at sea.

Chen Wu immediately shouted in surprise: "What's going on!"

"Be careful, general!" A soldier yelled, but it was too late. Even if a person could react, the boat couldn't. The stones already contained enormous power. After years of training, Zhao Hu had already mastered the tactics of the trebuchet. Not to mention every shot hit every shot, but [-]% of the stones hit the ship. On top of it, and it’s so hard to die, the formation of Chen Wu’s fleet is relatively dense. As soon as a crisp sound was heard, the wooden deck couldn’t bear the power of the falling rocks, and they broke one after another. There was a small hole.

"What is this!" Chen Wu yelled, leading the people to retreat into the cabin, Zhao Hu gave a wicked smile, and the soldier beside him immediately said: "General! Let's retreat quickly, our army has already won a big victory Now, the Jiangdong navy is no longer the general's opponent!"

Zhao Hu pouted, and said angrily, "Hmph! It's not over yet, so send an order to speed up!" Joining the army looked at Zhao Hu distressedly, why did Jiangdong Club and Li Lin also have an alliance relationship, so Zhao Hu would not kill them all, but said It is still necessary to pretend to be forced.

After the rock fell, Chen Wu saw the ship in front of him slowly approaching. The most important thing was that this big ship had no sails, and the tall mast was bare, but after all, its speed was even faster than the Jiangdong warship he was so proud of. It's even twice as fast, Chen Wu has also been fighting in the navy for many years, and his Jiangdong ships come and go like the wind all the time, what happened to him today!

But the enemy army was approaching, Chen Wu didn't dare to neglect, and immediately shouted: "Hurry up, hurry up! Get out, the enemy army is coming up! The archers are ready!"

The Jiangdong Navy, who had escaped a catastrophe, was lucky enough to hide in the cabin, but Chen Wu gave an order, and they had no choice but to walk out of the cabin tremblingly, holding their bows and arrows, and looking up at the sky, to prevent the falling rocks for a while. Some fell down, but I had no time to avoid it.

Chen Wu looked at the frightened look of the sailors under his command. At that time, he became angry and shouted: "Where are you looking! Look ahead, the enemy is rushing up!"

Zhao Huhai was sailing fast, panting and saw that he was within the attacking range of the Jiangdong Navy. Zhao Hu raised his hand, and the boat stopped. Chen Wu was still boosting his morale, and shouted: "Jiangdong Navy, number one in the world! one!"

The soldiers under his command also shouted in unison: "Jiangdong navy, number one in the world!"

"Humph! Number one in the world! Today I will tell you who is the number one in the navy!" Zhao Hu shouted loudly, then waved his hand again, and shouted, "Give them an arrow and let them have a try!"

The two windows in front of the cabin were opened, and the front end of a huge crossbow protruded from the inside, and at the back, the sound of "creaking" turning the pulleys could be heard...
