Today, the Changshan Army fought with the Jiangdong Army, and then each withdrew its troops, cleaned up after the war, etc., and the time was already dusk.

After Liu Chen led his army to attack, the sky gradually darkened.

This moment of silence in the dead of night is actually not conducive to marching and fighting, not to mention that their underground is not the land where their feet are stepping on the ground, but the rolling Yangtze River.

If you are not careful, you may be swallowed by the turbulent waters of the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River has a huge temperature difference between day and night, and you can still dive in the water during the day, but it is absolutely difficult to stick to it late at night.

Even with the ability bonus, the generals of the Changshan Army could not stay in the river for a long time.

Most importantly, most of the ancient soldiers had night blindness because of malnutrition, that is, they could not see the scene clearly at night, just like black blind.

This is also why, throughout the ages, there have been very few battles in the middle of the night marching to fight, and this is why.

Of course, nothing is absolute.

Today's Changshan Army, under Liu Chen's governance, can be described as abundant and well-fed, and the food supply such as military salaries of all the soldiers is also the best level.

There was no deduction of military salaries at all, which also made the physical fitness and nutritional level of the generals of the Changshan army exceed that of other princes.

Coupled with the help of the ability bonus, the physical fitness of the soldiers is very strong, and the impact of night blindness is almost minimal!

Under the illumination of torches, more than a hundred warships attacked towards Chibi.

However, Liu Chen did not attack Chibi with the whole army, but divided his troops into battles, and almost half of his troops and warships detoured to the downstream, that is, Xiakou in the eastern direction.

There are all kinds of preparations for this.

The most important point was that if Zhou Yu and the other Jiangdong Army received the news that Jiangdong was being attacked in the belly, they would definitely need to lead their troops to retreat.

And the withdrawal of troops by land and water is undoubtedly the best choice for the Jiangdong Army.

In this way, the division of troops to fight in Xiakou can also block Zhou Yu's withdrawal at that time and come to an ambush battle.

......

More than a hundred warships of the Changshan Army separated, heading towards their destination, and the torch-lit ships cruising on the river, like ghost ships, looked eerie.

Chibi side.

The Koto Army was stationed here.

Today experienced a big battle, although in the end, Zhou Yu designed a fire attack and fought a turnaround battle for the Changshan army, making them raise their eyebrows.

But it is undeniable that after two big battles and dozens of small-scale battles, their Jiangdong water army suffered heavy losses.

Of the more than two hundred warships, less than a hundred remain.

Of the total strength of 300,000, only more than 200,000 are brought with him, most of whom are wounded and sick.

Changshan Army is still very strong! Let them still have palpitations!

After returning to the camp with a tired body, the officers and men of the Jiangdong Army just wanted to go down to rest.

But.

What made them unbelievable was that Zhou Yu actually ordered all the soldiers to keep their horses in the saddle and the soldiers not to unload their armor, and to maintain a state of high alert.

This made the whole army a little in an uproar!

Special has just experienced several big wars, this hungry and disabled situation, do not even give rest to rest, do you really want to let them die alive?

The generals of the Jiangdong Army dare not speak angrily, after all, Zhou Yu Lusu and other generals have accumulated great prestige, so they can only complain, and then eat to fill their stomachs while preparing to be on guard.

This state did not last long, and after the silence of the night, the scout spies hurried to report, breaking the silence of the barracks.

"Report! Governor Yu, Changshan Army led the army to attack, it has reached more than ten miles of our army, and it is visible to everyone! "

After Zhou Yu asked carefully, he learned that the so-called visible eye was the fire on the bank of the 943 River. He immediately put all the soldiers on guard and prepared for the next battle.

At this time, all the soldiers suddenly realized that Zhou Yu let their soldiers not unload their armor and maintain a state of high-intensity alert.

If this let the Changshan army get closer, they would not even have the opportunity to board the ship and fight. Who would have thought that in the middle of the night, Chang Shanjun would still be so energetic?

Metropolitan Governor Zhou Yu is indeed a brilliant and resourceful general.

Thanks to Zhou Yu's advance precautions, the soldiers were only halfway through the ring, ready to go, and once again maintained their wartime state.

Zhou Yu was even dressed in a uniform and led all the soldiers to board the ship to prepare for battle.

"Sure enough, it was hit by Gong Jin." As Lu Su hurried away, he said with some surprise: "I didn't expect that the Changshan army really attacked by night!" "

"Lady Zhanta Niang, I'm not afraid of water ghosts coming up in the middle of the night..." Zhou Tai and other generals on the side scolded.

Zhou Yu ignored the scolding of the soldiers of the congregation, and replied to Lu Su:

"According to my observations, Chang Shanjun has excellent physical fitness and strong resilience. A return rifle could not be the most suitable. "

Lu Su bowed his head, but he thought it was true!

If their Jiangdong Army had such physical qualities, Jingzhou would have been in their hands long ago, so why be so passive as it is now!

After the soldiers boarded the ship, the water fence of the Jiangdong Water Army slowly opened, and the warships left the Chibi station one after another.

After sailing out of the water fortifications of the station, the eyes of the soldiers opened up instantly, and they also saw the sparkling lights on the riverbank, which was obviously the number of warships of the Changshan Army.

Zhou Yu's eyes froze, and according to the density and number of torches, Chang Shanjun did not seem to move.

"Is this battle an all-out battle, a tentative attack, or a tired strategy?" Zhou Yu frowned and thought that this point was very important and determined his layout.

The current here in Chibi is relatively gentle, which is conducive to crossing the river, and the water flow in other strategic places is short, which is not conducive to marching battles.

And now late at night, the Yangtze River is cooling down extremely quickly, and the fog is thick, and it is difficult to see clearly.

In this case, if you divide the troops to fight, or openly attack Chibi and cross other places, it is absolutely unwise.

Therefore, if it is an all-out attack, it should be the army to attack Chibi in its entirety. But now looking at the density of torches, it is not quite like the entire lineup of the Changshan Army.

"The vanguard troops carefully moved forward to explore, the fleet scattered and moved forward, so that the soldiers were ready for long-range attacks such as arrows and ballistae..."

Zhou Yu looked at the direction of the wind blowing by the military flag, southwest direction, just blowing them, "Be careful to guard against enemy fire." "

The order of the Jiangdong Navy Division was quickly transmitted, and more than a hundred warships instantly changed their military formation, and then drove towards the opposite side.

The first exploration fleet headed forward at a faster speed to avoid encountering the kind of strategy of locking the river, and the whole army was destroyed.

It was also at this very moment.

The flames suddenly lit up, and dozens of charging boats flew like off-string arrows, igniting a raging fire.

Zhou Yu was not surprised, now the Changshan army has the advantage of the wind direction, the speed of the sailing ship has reached the extreme, and the fire attack can also get a not weak effect.

Fire attacks don't have to deal extensive damage, and flames can be a good way to deter enemy forces, cause fleets to change course, or light up the surroundings for illumination.

The vanguard in front met the fireboat for the first time, and they immediately wanted to change the course and avoid the fire attack of the charging boat.

They are only the vanguard, and the ships they drive are mostly small boats, the purpose is to quickly explore the waters ahead and avoid trapping the enemy.

Equivalent to cannon fodder vanguards.

The steamship passed them and flew towards the rear.

These vanguard troops of the Jiangdong Army, Yu Guang swept the straw, dry firewood, fire oil and other objects on the ship, and the iron nails and iron cones in the bow of the ship, and flew towards the rear.

Immediately, the vanguard generals waved torches, which was a secret phrase in their Jiangdong army, in order to avoid the fleet in the rear.

Otherwise, if it is hit by a fireboat, the iron nail in front of it is directly plunged into the ship, which will definitely cause the flame to burn and then ignite.

It's just that.

After going, these vanguard troops of the Jiangdong Army had just relaxed, but suddenly found that the steamboat was not far behind the small boat, and there were about ten Changshan army generals among them, obviously preparing to sneak attack.

"This is ... Take advantage of the principle of black under the lamp?! "

The members of the vanguard of the Jiangdong Army were instantly shocked, and after waking up, their faces turned pale, and just wanted to warn the large troops behind them, when the sound of crossbow arrows breaking through the air came.

Poof——

Poof——

On this small boat, four or five vanguards of the Jiangdong Army directly fell into the river with a pop, and the surface of the water was bright red, but under the night, it was difficult to see clearly.

This scene appeared in all directions.

The Changshan army seemed to use fire to attack, but in fact, there were soldiers behind it who were dormant and followed, using the black principle under the lamp to conceal the sky and the sea, and approached the Jiangdong Water Division troops little by little.

Not only that, but the flaming fireship can also play a psychological role in diverting attention, like a line of sight induction, attracting most of the attention to the focus of the fireship, while ignoring the sneak attack team behind it.

In addition to the sneak attack of small boats pacing behind the steamboat, in those invisible nights, there were also dozens of small boats, carrying about ten Changshan Army generals approaching and attacking!

This is not one, but dozens and hundreds!

The vanguard of the Jiangdong Army is being uprooted little by little. If it was daylight, it would naturally be impossible to hide the eyes and ears of Zhou Yu and other Jiangdong Army officers.

But now it's night.

Moreover, after being alerted by the vanguard troops, the large forces of the Jiangdong Army behind were busy changing the course to avoid the attack of the fireboats.

I didn't even notice it for a while!

This is Liu Chen's purpose, to attack the other with his own strengths, and use the hand-to-hand combat that the Changshan Army is best at to attack the Jiangdong Water Division and avoid long-range engagement with them!

If you use a battleship to forcibly approach, you will be avoided by the Jiangdong water army, but if you use a small boat to raid, the whole will be reduced to zero, so that the enemy army is defenseless, and the success rate is extremely high!

Above the main battleship of the Changshan Army.

Liu Chen predicted the time when the sneak attack team would leave, and then ordered his subordinates: "Light all the torches, blow the horn of attack, beat the drum and cheer!" "

"Yes!"

Immediately, a soldier went down to do it.

On both sides of the battleship were tied dense grass figures, each holding torches, and when the soldiers gradually lit up, the lights above the Changshan battleship instantly brightened.

Then blow the offensive howl and beat the drum to cheer.

At this moment, the fleet of the Changshan Army was like a bright moon in the night, shining with brilliant light, instantly attracting all attention.

A series of preparations, or a line of sight induction tactic, to attract the attention of the enemy and create time for the sneak attack squad!

Miles away.

Zhou Yu, Lu Su and other generals who were thinking about the strategic goals of the Changshan Army and guessing the strategic intentions of the Changshan Army were instantly shocked by the trumpet beating and drumming, and they all focused their eyes on the past!

"What the hell is Chang Shanjun doing? This distance doesn't look like it can be attacked, right? "

Lu Su frowned and said seriously. Intuition told him that Chang Shanjun would definitely not be untargeted.

Zhou Yu swept the light and looked at the dense torches, but secretly bowed in his heart, according to the density of the torches, it was speculated that now the Changshan army was the real whole army.

It seems that in this battle, the other party is not trying to make false moves, but is really ready to attack with all his might.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu just wanted to change the formation, and a warning voice suddenly came: "Enemy attack..."

Poof——

As soon as the voice came out, the lookout standing at the bow of the boat fell directly into the river, obviously with his life.

The soldiers of the Jiangdong Army on the ship were stunned for a moment, and then woke up, and the roar sounded one after another.

"Enemy attack! ~~~"

"Enemy attack! ~~~~~"

Everyone looked at the river below, and finally behind the fireboat, they saw the Changshan Army squad that sneaked up.

These Changshan Army officers reacted extremely quickly, holding crossbow arrows and firing directly at the hull of the ship.

The crossbow arrows flew away, and many arrows were tied with strings, and they pulled and swung directly on the Jiangdong military warship.

Knock knock -

The sound of stepping on the soles of his feet came, and then, like an ape, he climbed directly onto the battleship of the Jiangdong Water Army by the pull of arrows and strings.

There were also generals and soldiers of the Changshan Army, who continuously and intensively fired at the Jiangdong Army warships, and they used Liu Chen's (Zhuge ) crossbow, which was invented by Liu Chen.

Ten consecutive arrows shot directly at the battleship of the Jiangdong Army, and the shooting hit rate of this crossbow was not good, but the Changshan Army attacking troops did not care.

The arrows of these crossbow arrows plunged into the battleship of the Jiangdong Army, as if they could climb over the focus point of borrowing power.

Those who climbed on the battleship, but were besieged and beaten down, those who failed to swing and fell to the surface of the Changshan Army generals, could use these crossbows and arrows to focus on the points and board the battleship of the Jiangdong Army again.

What's more, just like a martial arts master, he borrowed power on the surface plank, then stepped on the hull of the enemy battleship, and then borrowed the power to jump on the enemy battleship.

This exaggerated person who boarded the ship was none other than Zhao Yun!

There are various other methods, all of which appear in the hands of the Changshan army, with the same purpose, that is, to board the enemy fleet!

The generals of the Jiangdong Water Army reacted and responded quickly.

They launched a siege against the Changshan army who forcibly boarded the ship, and those who had not yet come up casually took an item and threw it down, trying to smash the enemy army down.

Some of the officers and soldiers of the Jiangdong Army used bows and arrows to shoot, some succeeded, but some were unsuccessful, because the speed was too slow, allowing the enemy to board the ship and kill!

On one side is the Changshan Army who forcibly boarded the ship, and on the other hand, the Jiangdong Army that panicked on the ship to defend and counterattack, this is the true portrayal of the Jiangdong Army fleet today.

At the beginning, the Changshan army was still in the inferior position, and several soldiers were surrounded and attacked after boarding the battleship.

But after more and more Changshan Army officers successfully boarded the ship, they immediately launched a counterattack.

In the face of these Changshan Army generals who were like wolves with one enemy and five enemies, the generals and soldiers of the Jiangdong Army were simply unable to resist and retreated one after another!

The most terrifying thing was the battleship that Zhao Yun boarded.

This world's first and peerless fierce general, as if he wanted to wash away today's shame, actually swept through thousands of armies with one enemy and a hundred, suppressed thousands of enemy troops on the ship with the power of one person, and demonstrated his strength in the world!

The battleship that was the first to be breached had already transferred the initiative to the Changshan army.

Zhou Yu, Lu Su and other important advisers, most of the governors, naturally will not be on the front line of warships, just like the generals marching, the main generals are in the central army arch guard.

Zhou Yu's fleet was in the rear, so it had not been attacked by the Changshan army for the time being.

They saw the fleet on the front line from a distance, gradually attacked by the generals of the Changshan Army and boarded the ship, and then gradually retreated until they lost the initiative of the battleship.

"This is a trick to hide from the sky and the sea by using the darkness of the night! Those steamships, the trumpets and drums that suddenly appeared, were just to divert our attention! "

Lu Su sighed and said, "Only these physically strong soldiers of the Changshan Army can do this kind of sneak attack!" "

Zhou Yu's face was a little ugly and gloomy!

At this time, they could not even attack, or dare not attack.

Because above the fallen battleships ahead, in addition to the Changshan Army, there were also the generals of the Jiangdong Army.

They could not fire from a long range to avoid damaging friendly forces, but they could not board ships for close combat, as they were not opponents of the Changshan army.

However, if he did not attack, he would just let twenty or thirty warships fall into the hands of the enemy, increase the strength of the enemy, and weaken his own combat effectiveness, and Zhou Yu was unwilling.

But what if you are not willing to do it?

At this moment, Zhou Yu finally realized that Huang Zhong fell into the trap, and dozens of warships fell into the fire attack plan and burned down!

Zhou Yu is now very unwilling and resentful!

"This is definitely not the counterattack of the naval forces under Huang Zhong, is it Guo Jia? Or Cheng Yu? Or or... Changshan King Honzun?! "

Intuition told Zhou Yu that this time the commander of the Changshan Army Marine Division was Changshan King himself!

Zhou Yu, who was holding his breath, directly ordered the withdrawal of troops!

Even if there were twenty or thirty warships ahead, even if there were tens of thousands of soldiers on it, Zhou Yu could only decisively withdraw his troops!

It is too late to rescue, if it is forcibly rescued, it will only make more soldiers fall into it!

Just after the Jiangdong fleet changed its course and withdrew, Liu Chen led the Changshan Army fleet to kill fiercely!

Seeing Zhou Yu's decisive withdrawal, Liu Chen felt a little sorry in his heart, if Zhou Yu chose to attack and rescue, he would be able to bury the Jiangdong Army here.

However, for Zhou Yu's response, Liu Chen was also prepared.

Liu Chen ordered the fleet to speed up, and by the time it approached the fallen Jiangdong warships, it was already under the control of the Changshan army.

They did not stop to assist, but quickly pursued towards Zhou Yu's withdrawal of troops.

"Gong Jin, Chang Shanjun is holding on, if he forcibly returns to Chibi, the water fence may not be closed!" Lu Su said worriedly.

Water fences, also known as water fortifications, are used to guard against enemy warships attacking the gates, but it takes time to open and close the passage.

But the fleet of the Changshan Army behind him is getting faster and faster, and they still have more than fifty warships here, and they can't enter all of them smoothly.

"Send soldiers back to Chibi to communicate, let them be on guard."

Zhou Yu ordered methodically: "Send the vanguard fleet east to Xiakou, let Huang Zu and other garrisons assist in defense, and at the same time probe whether there is an ambush."

"We immediately turned to Xiakou, not too fast, if the Changshan army turned to attack Chibi, we immediately changed direction to attack Chibi and hit them with a return gun."

Zhou Yu's order was quickly implemented.

These instructions are very strict, and the dispatch of ships needs to be used flexibly, but for the Jiangdong Army officers who are skilled in controlling sails, Zhou Yu is very confident!

Rear.

After Liu Chen watched Zhou Yu's fleet turn eastward, he directly ordered and said:

"Leave two battleships, three thousand soldiers, inform the Zilong in the rear about them, and find a way for me to burn the fortifications of Chibi."

Zhao Yun was originally in the raid squad, this kind of operation equivalent to a death squad, Zhao Yun, a high-ranking post-general, dared to accompany him.

It can be said that the whole body is full of gall.

As soon as the personal soldiers on the side retired, Huang Zhong threw up his hands and said: "Your Highness, the last general will stay to assist General Zhao and make meritorious contributions!" "

Liu Chen took a deep look at Huang Zhong, and found that Huang Zhong's face was firm, and he looked like he wanted to wash away the shame of the snow, and he nodded and said, "Good!" "

"General Dian, protect the lord!" Huang Zhong was pleased, but did not forget to instruct.

Dian Wei bowed his head and said, "Don't worry, General Huang! If you want to hurt the lord, step over my corpse first! "

Huang Zhong nodded and retreated, threw down a small boat from the stern, jumped directly up, and sailed towards the remaining fleet.

Only then did Huang Zhong realize that Liu Chen said that he had left two warships, which now became five, and the number of soldiers had increased from 3,000 to 10,000.

"Master!!"

Huang Zhong was a little moved in his heart, this is because he is afraid that he will not want to attack Chibi, and the people left behind will dispatch him.

Coupled with the original raid squad of 20,000 people, if the damage is not serious, it is 30,000 Changshan Army soldiers.

The most important thing is that there is Zhao Yun, a peerless fierce general!

How is Huang Zhong not moved!

After daytime fighting, the total strength of the Changshan army is now only about 150,000, of which 560,000 are Xiangyang Water Division.

After dividing the army in Xiakou, Liu Chen's subordinates were only 780,000, leaving almost half to him.

"The last general will definitely capture Chibi, otherwise, he will already have no face to face the lord and all the brothers!"

Huang Zhong said firmly, holding the idea of seeing death as if it were home, boarded the remaining battleship, and went towards the rear to meet Zhao Yun.

The two armies soon converged, and Zhao Yun led more than twenty warships to sail in a mighty manner.

After the two generals communicated, Zhao Yun said:

"This attack, by surprise, attacked unprepared, and our army suffered no more than thousands of casualties. However, the enemy still has more than 30,000 soldiers, and nearly 10,000 soldiers need to be left to guard. "

Huang Zhong is the head, then the generals of the Changshan Army that they can mobilize, there are more than 20,000 or so.

"I wonder what General Zhao's strategy is?" Huang Zhong asked.

Zhao Yun thought for a while and said, "Maybe you can use these Jiangdong Army warships and the armor of the Jiangdong Army generals to disguise them inside?" "

"With Zhou Yu's calculations, he should be prepared for this." Huang Zhong frowned and thought for a while and said, "And we don't know their marching password. "

"I'll try to lure down the Jiangdong Army, and if I can capture Chibi, I will remember them for their first merit." Zhao Yun said.

Huang Zhong bowed: "So just right!" "

Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong together captured Chibi, and Liu Chen led the Changshan naval division to pursue Zhou Yu.

Now there are more than 50 warships behind Liu Chen, and there are about 450,000 soldiers. This is the result of attrition after two divisions.

However, in order to hide his eyes, Liu Chen ordered people to tie a lot of grass people on both sides of the ship, and they could barely fill up with their clothes and armor.

At a glance, it looked like an army of 780,000 guards, chasing and killing Zhou Yu's fleeing Jiangdong Army fleet.
