Chapter 1 Section 010 Burning of Xiakou Harbor
Zhou Yu adopted Guan Zheng's strategy, while escorting the surrendered troops back to Chaisang! On the other hand, he ordered the fleet to advance at full speed towards the port of Xiakou.
Huang Zu's body was also brought back to Chaisang, and he didn't figure it out until he died. I just led the team to regularly inspect the waters of Jingzhou, why did I lose my life?
At this time, the defenders of Xiakou Port did not know that their naval army had been destroyed, and they were still eating wine and playing with military prostitutes in the camp. Everyone is very happy, they know that the general will not be able to come back in a few days after the inspection! These days of the month are the days of their rejoicing. In addition to the deputy general Liu Pan symbolically sent a few guards at the camp gate, the military camp of Nuoda did not even send a patrol. In the end, even the sentry on the lookout climbed down and poured yellow soup.
Dawn...... Looking through the river fog, he looked at the military camp built on the port. A smile appeared at the corner of Zhou Yu's mouth, how quiet!
The news of the annihilation of the Xiakou Water Army has not yet reached the camp, and the soldiers here are resting peacefully. Except for the patrol in the camp, which only appears once in half an hour, the enemy did not send even a ship to patrol the river!
"Give the order to go down, put on the oil and burn the camp with rockets. Pioneer officers Zhou Tai and Ling Cao each led their troops and horses to land on the ship, but when they saw the fire, they attacked the enemy camp! Joining the army, Guan Zheng led the camera of the first army to act. The governor and Lord Cheng Pu guarded the Chinese army, and they did not advance when they heard the drums, they did not stop when they heard the gold, they could not raise the flag, and they could not press the flag...... All slashed! Zhou Yu, who had issued several military orders in one breath, turned around and entered the cabin, leaving only the soldiers in the bucket to use black cloth to cover a lantern hanging beside him and send a signal!
After half an hour, countless Jiangdong soldiers climbed from the battleship along the cable net to the stern waiting below!
The small boat full of people rowed quietly and carefully to the shore, and after a while, the water surface dozens of meters from the shore was densely covered with ships loaded with soldiers!
"Quack~quack~quack~quack!" The sound of trebuchet winches was faintly heard! Guan Zheng, who was lying in the ship, tightened his cloak and said secretly: "It's going to start!" ”
Sure enough, then I heard the sound of trebuchet firing from the ship behind me. One by one, the sealed clay pots were thrown towards the dead and silent Xiakou military camp in the distance!
"Bang ......" A clay pot fell to the ground and fell to pieces, followed by hundreds of identical clay pots falling to all corners of the barracks and shattering!
The black viscous grease splashed in all directions as the clay pot was broken, and a pungent smell suddenly filled the air!
"the milk, who the hell dropped the night pot early in the morning!" A sleepy-eyed soldier got out of the tent and found a secluded place to pee and curse!
After peeing, he was about to turn around and go into the tent to sleep with his pants up. Suddenly I felt that the day in front of me was ...... Why did it suddenly light up! I rubbed my eyes and took a closer look, my mother-in-law, where is the dawn. It was clear that a burst of rockets was shot from the surface of the river...... The little fire burning on the arrowhead reflected half of the sky in that red color!
"Enemy ...... ...... enemy attack," the soldier shouted at his tight throat, and the next moment he was buried by the rain of arrows!
In an instant, the rocket landed on the grease-soaked ground!
"Boom~~~" sounded, and the monstrous flames burned!
"Help~~Haya~~" "Enemy...... Raid ....." "Hurry up and find General Liu Pan!! "As the flames raged, all kinds of screams came from the Xiakou barracks!
"Listen to me...... The whole army storms!! Seeing the fire, Zhou Taiyi, who had been dormant for a long time, drew a long knife and shouted!
"Hey~~hey~~hey~~" With the military order, Zhou Tai's soldiers rowed the small oars in their hands hard! The black ships rushed to the shore like black centipedes!
"The whole army stormed ......" saw Zhou Tai take the lead in leading the army to rush to the enemy camp! Not to be outdone, Ling Cao also gave the order to attack. The left and right armies approached the shore almost simultaneously!
"The whole army advances ......" The two vanguard generals launched an attack on the enemy one after another! Guan Zheng then also gave the order to advance. For a while, the ships on the river shuttled back and forth, as if there were waves of black tides!
"The flotilla is approaching the shore, and the bows and arrows cover the enemy camp!" Zhou Yu in the flagship issued a military order to the pro-soldiers on the side! The soldiers did not dare to delay, and hurriedly rushed out of the cabin to convey the military order to the herald in Wangdou: "The governor has an order, the fleet is close to the shore, and the bow and arrow cover the enemy camp!" ”
The soldiers in Wangdou received the order and quickly waved the lantern to convey the military order! The fighting ships that received the military order raised their oars and leaned towards the shore one after another, "Shoot the soldiers and prepare...... Cover enemy camps...... Preparation...... Put! At the sound of the order, the feather arrows that had already been buckled on the strings and pointed to the sky immediately shot out!
The feathered arrows spun in circles and ran into the sky, until they were exhausted, and then turned their heads and plunged into the port barracks below! "Whoa, whoa, whoa!" The feathers streaked through the air, sending a hissing roar. One by one, the panicked Jingzhou soldiers were killed with the arrival of the arrow rain.
Black grease, twisted flames, bright red blood, corpses...... It forms a hellish and berevelous picture!
"Rush in and take this battalion!" Regardless of the scorching heat! Zhou Tai shouted at the soldiers!
"Drink! Come on! The soldiers responded, picked up the weapons in their hands and rushed to the barracks in front of them!
"Sons, we can't let them rob them of their exploits! Come on! "Ling Cao, who was a step slower, also gave orders to his corporaries!
"Your Excellency...... We ...... "watched as the brothers of the vanguard rushed up!" Hu Zheng, the pro-soldier who was guarding Guan Zheng with a shield and a horizontal knife, was a little anxious!
"This is all credit, as long as you win this battalion, you will have another credit in your book! With the reward, you can buy a decent hairpin for your daughter-in-law Xu! She had been talking for a long time...... "Hu Zheng thinks like this!"
"Don't rush...... We're right here, and it's a great thing to keep this beachhead! "How could Guan Zheng not understand the thoughts of his soldiers? But the military order is like a mountain, and the master orders himself to move the camera, so he can't do it by his temperament! Now the enemy's reality has not yet been finally figured out, and he rushed in...... As long as the enemy sends an army to occupy the beachhead...... Intercepting the way out, it will be a hard battle, and many people will die!
Good Fighters...... Consider defeat before victory...... That's what the master told himself! Guan Zheng raised his sword and looked straight ahead......!
