Chapter 386. Dabnew, Wall of Wind!
The water battles in these years are not as complicated as the formation of the battle lines in later generations, they are just a variant close to land warfare, and they are still fierce and ruthless, if you attack the opponent's ship and kill the opponent with no two crooked melons and jujubes, you will win.
However, after all, water warfare is still a water war, a land battle is a battle, and a water war is a ship, and when the ship-destroying weapon is not so powerful, the angle battle is still the mainstream of the ship-destroying method, so a big taboo in water warfare is not to easily expose your side to the enemy, it will attract collision angles!
And in terms of configuration, the Qingzhou fleet is too lacking, Wang Hou has a hundred warships, only more than 40 meters to 60 meters of large ships, and Dongwu has both a hundred meters long, more than 60 meters wide double-bottomed three-layer small sail giant building ship, there are only a few meters, flexible rotation of small sampans, now for these sampan fireships, the Qingzhou army is obviously helpless, in Zhou Yu's stunned look, these vigorous Qingzhou battleships put a burst of stones, and then were forced by this group of fireships to hang up the sails in a hurry, pull up the anchor, Turning the bow of the ship and slipping.
Is that okay? After a few minutes of hesitation, Zhou Yu still didn't make a good decision, after all, he was miserable last time by Wang Hou pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger! Now he can't tell if the Qingzhou Army is a real dish or if it is Wang Hou's trick.
However, just as he hesitated, the heavy and huge Qingzhou battleships were not much worse than those small ships, and seeing the fireships approaching, these battleships quickly completed the U-turn after pulling up the anchor, withdrew their sails, and this time they also fled in a hurry in a smooth direction.
It was really dangerous and dangerous, and almost the two ships in the center were burned by these small sampan fireboats, and the Qingzhou fleet completed its tactical actions and also raised its speed.
Zhou Yu hesitated here, Sun Shangxiang did not hesitate, followed behind the fireboat, it was more than a hundred years old, more than twenty meters long, and it was also a low long ship with a hard sail chasing quickly and quickly, these ships have a characteristic, the bow is specially wrapped with metal sharp corners, and behind the sharp horns, there is a hard keel made of a whole tree, so that these ships are like a pointed war hammer, full of impact.
The ship is not screaming in vain, it is to rush!
Standing on the bow of a ship, a small white foot wearing straw sandals stepped on a sturdy ramming angle, carrying a bow in her left hand, and the tips of her hair were flying with the river breeze, Miss Sun was handsome like a goddess.
In the tense chase battle, unconsciously four or five hundred meters ran out, and in the downwind taxiing, the staggered Qingzhou ship formation also quietly changed, originally rushed to the front, the three Qingzhou ships next to each other slowly spread out to the wide side of the entire fleet, and gradually fell behind the entire fleet, and the fastest fireships were even level with the Qingzhou main battleship on the edge.
But at this moment, something strange happened!
The fireship that was urgently charging suddenly trembled violently, and then the speed suddenly slowed down, and in the violent trembling, it maintained a parallel speed with the backward Qingzhou battleship, as if it was blocked by a certain Dabneu skill of the happy wind man, the first one was sticky, followed by the second fireboat, and the third and fourth.
The backward Qingzhou warships were getting slower and slower, and more and more fireships were intercepted and gathered in the middle of the three ships. It's not that there is no price, the backward middle battleship was hit by more than a dozen fireships, even if it was smeared with a protective layer, the battleship made of wood was scorched by the flames to the point of crackling and burning, and quickly burned into a huge pillar of fire in the flames. But with the burning, hundreds of fireships in the first wave of attack were all stopped!
And! A large number of fireboats were burning, and Sun Shangxiang's team, which was chasing behind, was unlucky.
"Stop the boat! Drop the sails and stop the boat! ”
The blazing wind even rushed to his face, looking at the crackling fireboat in front of him, he couldn't care about being handsome anymore, Sun Shangxiang shouted in panic with a pale face, and shouted in disbelief.
"How is that possible? Will the old thief really demonize these fireboats? Stop the boat! ”
To say that you can't drive on the highway can not be speeding, driving a boat is also a truth, inertia is easy to speed up, it is difficult to stop, ahead, there have been Dongwu ships in the screams of the sergeants crashed into the fire fleet, and then it was also burned with the Beijing roast duck stove like the fire boat burned straight oil, seeing that he was about to become a roast duck immediately, he was so anxious that he was about to cry, and looked at the Qingzhou fleet behind the wall of fire and slowed down on the river, gritted his teeth fiercely, and Sun Shangxiang's embarrassed bow was also thrown, Dangling his arms left and right, he ran to the stern of the boat with his long legs, and then jumped into the Yangtze River at once.
Does Wang Hou know how to demons?
Of course not! It seems to be a magical scene, but the principle is very simple, three backward boats, each of which has taken off three iron chains with a thickness of more than 200 meters of thighs, and the iron chain subnet composed of it, on the net, is also tied to the wood full of sharp iron nails like hob meat, the three boats are distanced, and the iron chain dragged at the bottom of the river is straightened, forming an interception net on the river, and the fluttering sampan fireboat hits the net, and naturally stops.
After Cao Wei destroyed Shu, in order to prevent the attack of Wei from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, Wu also set up a barrage in the Yangtze River, and the Western Byzantine Empire defended the Bosphorus Strait, and also set up a barrage cable.
In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Huang Gai is bitter, and Zhou Yu pulls out the big fire pot for Mr. Cao, but Wang Hou knows it clearly, how can he not guard against him?
Behind, bursts of military drums also rumbled, but compared to the majesty of the Qingzhou Navy Division just now, there was always a feeling of weakness.
There were more than 2,000 Wu troops in the fleet, even if Zhou Yu hesitated, he had to march, as a general, he couldn't accept the result of doing nothing, watching more than 2,000 of his subordinates burn and drown, and one by one the behemoths of Eastern Wu rushed to the barrage line of fire in the oarsmen shouting trumpets.
Watching the ships crash into the fireboat like moths to a fire, Zhou Yu's heart couldn't help but be full of chagrin, he knew that Wang Hou, the little thief, followed Cao Cao, the old thief, and a nest of scheming traitors! He was stupid enough to fall for his weakness again, and his hand holding the hilt of the knife was clenched so tightly that it gurgled.
But even if Wang Hou has been pulled to a new height in his heart, Zhou Yu still underestimated Wang Hou's three-plate axe, just when his attention was all on the burning line of fire and the subordinates who released the ship to rescue, in his ears, bursts of violent drums came from the north, around the edge of the interceptor ship, the Qingzhou fleet like a long snake went upstream, cutting horizontally to the edge of his huge fleet of building ships.
Full of astonishment looking at the Qingzhou pointed-head battleship more than a hundred meters away from him, Zhou Yu even vaguely saw the lewd and obscene figure of Wang Hou standing at the bow of the ship, just when he was speculating about Wang Hou's next trick in his heart, on the side of the Qingzhou ship, which was very different from the Jiangnan ship, one by one portholes were hung up, and then one after another black steel pipes were pushed to expose their heads and aim at themselves.
What is it? Ballista??
In Zhou Yu's astonishment, a burst of muffled thunder suddenly sounded deafeningly in the sky that cleared thousands of miles, and then, the deep and huge ships under him trembled violently.
Bang......
