Chapter 61: The Battle of the Great River (Part 2)
When the horn sounded, the Jingzhou Water Army Camp reacted. Huang Zu and Huang Zhong hurriedly left the barracks and came to the high platform of the warship.
"Han Sheng, the Yangzhou Navy has moved, hundreds of warships have all been dispatched, this is to fight a decisive battle with us!" Huang Zu's cultivation at this time had reached the level of soul refining, and his five senses were very keen, seeing the hundreds of warships in the light mist, he couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and gasped in his heart.
Beside the two, there is also a red-faced man and a handsome young man. The red-faced man was surrounded by Gang Qi, with a long sword hanging from his waist, and the handsome young man had not practiced Gang Qi, but his spiritual strength was not weak, and he had reached the level of soul refining.
"Where did the Yangzhou Navy get the confidence? Don't they know that General Huang is about to break through the boundary of gods and men and become a powerhouse in the Divine Power Realm?" the red-faced military general couldn't help but say.
As soon as he said this, Huang Zu and Huang Zhong couldn't help but shake their heads, and the handsome young man beside him said: "General Wen Chang thinks too simply, the realm of supernatural powers is not so easy to achieve, for hundreds of years in the Han Dynasty, no one has been able to break through this limit, to be honest, although General Huang is a peerless general in the world, but if you want to break through the realm to the next level, the chance is only one or two percent!"
If Gao Cheng heard their conversation, he would be able to recognize the identity of this red-faced man, he was Wei Yan, the future general of Shu Han, Wei Wenchang.
In the original timeline, except for the confrontation and battle with the Jiangdong Sun clan in Jiangxia, there was basically no major war in the rest of the counties, even if Zhang Xian rebelled, Liu Biao did not panic much, and Liu Pan and Huang Zhong could suppress it. Without war, there would be no chance for ordinary soldiers to rise through meritorious service.
Wei Yan is very strong, but he is arrogant by nature and disdains to take refuge in the wealthy family, so his status has not been high, until Liu Bei came to Jingzhou, he had a chance to get ahead.
And now, Gao Cheng replaced Sun in charge of Yangzhou, and has been invincible in the southern and northern wars over the years, and has not been defeated so far. The momentum shook the world. Liu Biao has great pressure in his heart, so he constantly promotes talents from the army, Wei Yan has the strength, and he was appointed as a partial general of the navy.
And the handsome young man who spoke beside Wei Yan was Huang Zu's son Huang Jie. This person has an elegant atmosphere, whether it is leading troops or strategizing, he has inherited some of Huang Zu's abilities. So he was promoted to lieutenant. The status in Jiangxia is not low.
"General, this time all the Yangzhou naval forces are dispatched, and they are menacing, I'm afraid it's not that simple. I heard that Yu Ji, the Taoist master of Taiping Qing, has taken refuge in Yangzhou, and if he makes a move in this battle, our army will inevitably fall into disadvantage!" Huang Zhong frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.
Jingzhou also has its own intelligence system, and of course they know about Yu Ji's defection to Yangzhou. Especially after Kuai Yue learned the news, his face turned a little blue.
Taiping Qinglingdao, Shanyue, Yangzhou family, these three points are hidden dangers in Yangzhou. He sent envoys into Yangzhou to provoke Shanyue to send troops. Preparing to detonate Yu Ji and the Yangzhou family made Gao Cheng scramble and ignore the situation in the outside world.
Unexpectedly, only one-third of the plan was implemented, and Yu Ji and the Yangzhou family did not react at all. Shan Yue sent troops according to the original plan, but Gao Cheng and Yu Ji joined forces to kill the nine priests, and their backbones were completely broken.
Kuai Yue swore in front of Liu Biao that as long as the plan was successful, Yangzhou would be plunged into civil strife, and even Jingzhou would be able to take the opportunity to expand its territory.
The plan sounded good, but it turned into a mess when it came to implementation. Now that Yangzhou has pacified Shanyue and suddenly sent troops to Changsha, whether it is Liu Biao, Kuai Yue, or Huang Zu and Huang Zhong of Jiangxia, they have not thought of this.
"Yu Ji is pretending to be a ghost in Yangzhou, and he is actually an enemy of my Jingzhou army!" Huang Zu showed anger on his face, and slapped the side of the ship in front of him.
Huang Zhong said in a deep voice: "Yu Ji's spell I can also guard against one or two when I urge the battle array, but there are still Zhou Yu and Chen Zhi in Chaisang Water Village. These two people have been fighting against us for several years, and they have guarded the Chaisang Water Village tightly, which shows the ability of the two of them, and this war must not be careless!"
Huang Zu didn't speak, Wei Yan and Huang Jie also knew the strength of Zhou Yu and Chen Dao, and nodded when they heard this.
Subsequently, the Jingzhou Water Village was also slowly opened, the military horn sounded, and hundreds of warships also went out of the water. Since the Yangzhou Navy chose a decisive battle, they did not mean to avoid the battle and retreat.
......
Boom! Hundreds of warships on both sides are about to exceed 1,000 in number. It covers most of the river. The atmosphere of slaughter filled the heavens and the earth, and the rolling evil qi soared into the sky, and the originally hot weather became much cooler at this moment.
The momentum of hundreds of thousands of sailors on both sides can even affect the surrounding celestial phenomena after condensing. At this time, Zhou Yu gave the order, and the thirty search warships were loaded with sulfur firearms, puffed up their sails and slowly headed west.
"Kamikaze!"
In the void, Yu Ji urged all his spiritual power, merged into the void, condensed the wind of the heavenly dome, and slowly cast a powerful spell that affected a radius of dozens of miles.
This spell was originally extremely lethal, and could even form a wind blade to cut strong enemies, which was similar to the power of the black wind that destroyed the world, but now Yu Ji gave up the powerful power of the spell and only summoned a storm that affected dozens of miles. The larger the range, the less Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the strong wind, even if the other party casts a means to imprison Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, it will be difficult to stop.
"This is a spell, it doesn't seem to have much power!" Huang Zhu frowned as he looked at the wind blowing in his face, a little puzzled. Listening to what his father and General Huang Zhong said, Yu Ji is the great master of soul refining in Yangzhou, and the magic he casts is just that powerful?
At this time, Wei Yan looked at the direction of the wind, his face changed, and he exclaimed: "It's not good, Yu Ji is using a spell to reverse the direction of the wind, and the Yangzhou army is afraid that it will attack with fire!"
"What?
Huang Zu and Huang Zhong were shocked, and they also reacted, Huang Zu hurriedly ordered the warships in front to suspend their march, and quickly put down the boats to block the attack of the Yangzhou navy.
Huang Zhong calmed down and said: "It's really unprecedented! But even if the fire attack strategy is successful, it won't be able to damage the vitality of our army! Wen Chang, you come to assist the general in commanding the warship, and I will meet this Taoist master who leads the way of Taiping Qing!"
As soon as the words fell, Huang Zhong's feet shook, and he was surrounded by qi, and he flew up to the sky. The long knife in his hand condensed dozens of zhang of gangqi, and quickly flew towards Yu Ji.
As soon as Huang Zhong flew up, he saw a raging flame falling from the sky, and suddenly fell on the thirty fire-searching ships below, bang, the fireboat was burning, and the crimson firelight covered the sky, and under the blowing of the wind, it bombarded the warship of the Jingzhou Navy Army.
