The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Half an hour passed, and the fleet had already left the shore of Liqiu and arrived at the center of Hanzhong.

At this time, suddenly a sailor ran up from the cabin in a hurry.

"General, general, the ship, the ship is leaking!"

"What?!" Yang Hong's face changed drastically, he lifted the man up and asked carefully.

But after asking several times, he always got the same answer. This time, Yang Hong's heart immediately hung up.

He hurriedly followed the sailors to the bottom of the cabin to check.

When Yang Hong saw it, his face instantly became very ugly.

I saw that at the lower middle of the bottom of the ship, a gurgling river water was flowing into the cabin from the gaps in the ship's planks.

At this moment, three inches of water had accumulated in the cabin.

After Yang Hong approached and examined it carefully for a long time, he finally understood what it was.

It turned out that when he was under Yuan Shu, he had served as a warship supervisor for a period of time, so he knew a little about it.

This situation is because the previous layer of waterproof tung oil is not dry enough to apply another layer, and after soaking in water, it slowly disintegrates until it leaks completely.

Therefore, on the one hand, Yang Hong directed the sailors to clean up the accumulated water in the bilge, and on the other hand, hurriedly plugged the leak.

However, after working hard for a long time, it still has no effect.

After all, this was specially manipulated by Ling Tong. The whole ship is full of loopholes, how can it be blocked?

Yang Hong looked at the situation in the cabin, thought for a long time, and finally came up with an idea.

He found that the location of the leak was in the middle, just near the waterline.

Then you only need to reduce the load on the ship and shallow the waterline to avoid further water leakage.

Therefore, Yang Hong hurriedly beckoned to the friendly troops next to him, preparing to temporarily transfer a part of personnel and supplies to other ships.

Who knew that when the other party heard that Yang Hong's cabin was leaking, he also went down curiously to see his own.Then immediately fell into shock.

Because another ship also leaked.

In this way, it is naturally impossible to receive the other party's personnel and materials.

The ship Ling Tong was on was the closest to these two ships, and Yang Hong and the captain of the other ship hurriedly greeted him.

Ling Tong pretended not to know and came not far away to inquire, and the other party immediately explained the situation.

Because Yang Hong thought it was because he was too anxious to build the ship, so he never thought that the other party had tampered with it.

So he willingly transferred all the supplies from the two ships to Ling Tong's ship.

After the boat became lighter in this way, the water leakage finally eased somewhat.

Not long after, however, the ship leaked again.This time, the hole was bigger, the water flow was faster, and there was no time to block it.

Yang Hong still wanted to ask Ling Tong for help, but the other party refused the other party's request, saying that the ship was full of supplies and could no longer hold people.

In the end, in desperation, they could only lean towards the shore, preparing to disembark with the whole army.

Until this moment, Ling Tong finally stopped concealing his identity and immediately attacked the opponent's ship.

Under internal and external troubles, the ship could no longer move forward, so it stayed in the middle of the river.

Yang Hong shouted sharply: "Who are you? Why are you so?"

"Haha, I'm Ling Tongye, don't surrender quickly, otherwise everyone will go to the water to feed the fish!"

After hearing Ling Tong's identity, the enemy soldiers turned pale with fright. Except for Yang Hong's warship, everyone else surrendered.

Seeing this, Yang Hong was furious, and couldn't help scolding those people for having no backbone.He still sticks to the boat and does not surrender.

However, although Yang Hong's integrity is commendable, but this boat is from Ling Tong's hands, how can he hold on to it?

As the time in the water grew longer and the holes got bigger, the ship had begun to sink into the water with a firm and unstoppable attitude.

Seeing this, some soldiers had to jump into the water to avoid being buried with the leaky boat.

In the end, even Yang Hong himself had to jump into the water.

But in this way, they had no room to resist, and in the end they were all captured alive by Ling Tong's men.

In the end, all the sailors who came out with the ship surrendered to Ling Tong.

A few days later, Ling Tong repeated his old tricks and wiped out Li Qiu's remaining naval forces, and finally all these people became Ling Tong's captives.

It is no longer possible for these navy troops to join the defenders in Xiangyang on the appointed day.

At the same time, the city of Xiangyang is still making close preparations.

Strange to say, Liu Ke's attack has become significantly weaker than before, and the daily bombardment has become once a few days.

For such a situation, at first Zhou Yu thought that the other party was playing some kind of conspiracy, but after watching for a few days, there was nothing abnormal.

In the end, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu could only attribute this situation to the fact that Liu Ke's army finally became slack after a long siege of the city with no effect.

So Sun Quan became very excited.

He couldn't help but said: "God helped me too! Now that the enemy army has lost its spirit and the generals are slack, it's time for our army to win.
