Chapter 136: All-Out Assault!

Thick smoke and heat waves, the Chen army ship took advantage of the southeast wind to set the Zhou army ship on fire, the sparks flew with the wind, the sails were the first to suffer, followed by the hull wrapped in pigskins. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Defending against fire attacks with rawhides is a common means of defense for naval warships, but even the most 'fresh' pigskins cannot survive long in the raging fire, and the pigskins on many Zhou warships have begun to burst, and the smell of burnt pigskins is permeated on the river.

The smell was a little pungent, but the Zhou soldiers didn't care so much, and the big cocks on the various warships began to shoot water, trying to suppress the fire, but more and more Chen's ships attacked, making the situation more and more dangerous.

In water warfare, the most feared thing is that the enemy army uses the wind to set fire to the ship, once the fire burns downwind, it can burn the huge fleet, and the officers and soldiers of the Zhou army know the stakes, so any measures that can extinguish the fire are used.

In the autumn and winter, the north wind should have been strong, but the southeast wind actually blew, which is a little unbelievable, not only the soldiers in the sea of fire can't understand, but even the commander Yu Wenwen, who followed closely and pressed the rear army, couldn't understand.

The rear fleet was more than a mile away from the front fleet that was fighting, and Yu Wenwen stood on the ship's floor, looking at the flags waving in the wind on the side, he was a little speechless, he felt that God was full of malice towards him.

The soul is light, I am not the prime minister of Cao Cheng who likes wives, the southeast wind will blow in autumn and winter, is there a mistake!

The marshal on the side, Stryda, looked at the smoke-filled array of his own ships in front of him, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead, he had never fought a water fight but was not blind, and his situation looked obviously bad.

"King, this, this, this... Could it be that the southeast wind will blow in the south of the Yangtze River in autumn and winter? ”

"Supposedly not... It's really scraped..."

Yuwenwen smiled helplessly, Cui Da said secretly when he saw this, the main force of his own naval army was all here, if it was burned down by a fire, not to mention whether he could attack Sangluozhou, and it was difficult to say whether he could escape back to Caishan.

This time, the water army poured out of the nest to directly attack Sangluozhou, Cui Da was a little worried, but the last time he attacked Cai Shan successfully, and he didn't know how to fight in the water, so he couldn't advise Yu Wenwen to be cautious, and now it seems that he should really 'fight for reason' at the beginning.

In a way, Cui Da is happy to see Yuwen Wen unlucky, if the water army is defeated, then Yuwen Wenguang will have to go to great lengths to attack Jiangzhou, so that no one can grab Yu Chi Youqi's first contribution to destroying the country.

As the confidant of the old lieutenant Chi Prime Minister, Cui Dalu is now also the confidant of the little lieutenant Chi prime minister, so the prime minister's plan is clear to him: the great merit of destroying Chen must be held by Yu Chi Wulang, so that the status of the Yu Chi family will become more and more stable.

Yu Chi Shiro has made great contributions to the Sui Dynasty, so it is natural to succeed to the post of prime minister; Wei Chi Wulang has a great merit in destroying Chen, and it is natural for him to grasp the power to assist the Son of Heaven in the future; The queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty must be surnamed Wei Chi, so as the father-in-law of the Son of Heaven, Wei Chi Saburo naturally has to assist the Son of Heaven.

And the future prince naturally has half of the blood of the Wei Chi family!

Everything must be prioritized by the interests of the Wei Chi family, and even the status of the Cui family is rising, so Cui Da is happy to see Yu Wenwen unlucky, but he is afraid that he will lose too badly, which will affect Yu Chi Youqi's plan to attack Chen.

Zhou's navy on the Yangtze River is indeed the strongest in Huangzhou, and the achievements over the years have proved this, if the Huangzhou navy is wiped out here today, Jiangzhou's Chen navy is unconstrained, and it can reinforce Jiankang downstream at any time.

At that time, if Wei Chi Youqi takes Huainan, he will inevitably prepare to cross the river to attack Jiankang on the south bank, but if there is no naval army to cover, how can the army cross the river? How to ensure the safety of the back road after crossing the river?

At that time, the Qi army had crossed the Yangtze River, and twice the soldiers came to Jiankang City, but because the waterway was cut off by the enemy, the supply of grain and grass could not be supplied.

So, it's time to make a decision!

"King, now that the southeast wind is rising, the situation is not favorable to our army, it is better to withdraw the troops in Mingjin and Xu Tuzhi."

"Mingjin retreats? Why did Cui Changshi say this? ”

"King, although the lower officials are not good at water warfare, they can also see that after the Chen army set fire to the wind, our warships were caught in the fire, so how can there be any reason to win?"

"Cui Changshi, it is common for the wind direction to change abruptly during water wars, although the warships of the former army are a little embarrassed, not to mention anything else, now that the victory or defeat is not divided, the rear army will retreat, and if it is not defeated, it will be defeated."

Cui Da was stunned when he heard this, and when he saw Yu Wenwen's disapproving appearance, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart: You are a gambler who loses red eyes, and you want to put all your net worth on the big gamble!

The result of this is that you will lose your family!

"King! The poisonous snake bites the hand, and the strong man breaks his wrist, and you can't kill the whole army here because of your will! ”

Looking at the history of the righteous and strict prison commander, Yu Wenwen couldn't help complaining in his heart, because according to the routine, the prison army is a pig teammate-like villain, and he will only force the coach to play regardless of the actual situation.

Glancing at the battlefield on the river in front of him, Yu Wenwen opened his mouth and said: "The sudden southeast wind in autumn and winter is indeed a bit evil, but Cui Changshi has some confidence in the coming general. ”

"After all, our army is here to kill people, not to see the scenery!"

。。。。。。

The sound of crackling was endless, it was the sound of wood bursting when the ship was burning, and the warship on fire was gradually sinking on the river that had turned into a sea of fire.

In order to avoid the heat wave and Mars, Chen Jun's warship had retreated a hundred steps downstream, and many soldiers were relieved to see the scene in front of them.

God bless Da Chen, we are finally victorious!

If the rear ship does not retreat as soon as possible, sooner or later it will be lit by the sparks fluttering in the sky.

Since the one-legged bronze man came to Huangzhou, Jiangbei, Chen Guo's navy has been defeated in front of it one after another, and the navy army, which was proud in the past, could not defeat the newly built fleet of the Beiyu.

How many soldiers of the Chen army stained the Yangtze River with blood, just a few days ago, Cai Shan lost the battle again, and many people have a sense of fear of the one-legged bronze man, but after today, no one will be afraid of the one-legged bronze man anymore!

"You say, will the one-legged bronze man die in the fire?"

"Who knows, it's better to die, so he won't have to worry about his mother-in-law stealing people anymore!"

"Hahahaha!" The soldiers of the Chen army laughed when they heard this, they liked to make up stories to entertain the one-legged bronze man on weekdays, and now if the one-legged bronze man was hiding in the sea of fire, it would really be a thing worth celebrating.

Seeing that the situation was reversed and the morale of the soldiers was high, the generals of the Chen army arranged the next battle: the southeast wind might stop at some point, so they would have to crush the Zhou naval army that had been burned by the fire in one fell swoop.

"Sons, wait for a while until the fire subsides, everyone fights forward, and we must leave Beikou in Sangluo..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of rushing water in the sea of fire ahead, which seemed to be the sound of paddling produced by the rapid rotation of the car and ship water wheel.

"It's a warship! How is this possible! ”

"Why aren't they lit!"

In the exclamation, those big ships of the Zhou army appeared, with a water wheel on the left and right sides, the upper half of which was tightly wrapped, without a ship tower and a mast, which was a strange style of car and ship.

It was pitch black, with a sharp bow and a bow like a knife plunging into the water, as if it had been specially designed to ram enemy ships.

What makes people feel strange is that these ships rushed out of the sea of fire, but the hull of the ship was not damaged at all, not to mention the fire, not even black smoke came out.

"Shoot... Shoot rockets! Wan Jun Shen crossbow fired! ”

The shouts of the generals brought the soldiers back to their senses, and the archers fired rockets at the black ships, and the crossbows were aimed at the enemy ships, firing the arrows that burned red.

There was a clanging sound, and the rockets bounced off the back of the black ship, and after the thick giant arrow hit the hull, it was actually bounced away after a "bang".

"It's ironclad, the hull is wrapped in ironclad, this is the ironclad ship of the Zhou army!"

The exclamation started, the soldiers of the Chen army couldn't believe their eyes, the Zhou army actually wrapped the hull of the ship with iron armor, no wonder he was not afraid of fire, but in this way...

People wearing heavy armor can't last long on the river, why can such a large ironclad boat float on the water?

The sound of the water was rushing, it was the water wheel of the Zhou army's ironclad boat paddling rapidly, seeing that the speed of the other party's boat was getting faster and faster, the soldiers of the Chen army began to commotion, and many people took up arms, but they didn't know what to do next.

"Ready to fight, ready to fight! They're coming! ”

That being said, what can you do against an ironclad ship that is not afraid of fire? Only the clap warship can confront it, and the winner is still a matter of victory.

Just when the Chen army urgently moved the front of the clapping warship, the ironclad ship of the Zhou army had already rushed in, and the Chen army's warship in front of it was easily knocked and sunk.

A golden-winged ship was hit on the starboard side by an ironclad ship of the Zhou army, and a big breach appeared in an instant, and then the hull of the ship tilted, and the soldiers on it fell into the water one after another, and the ship lost its combat effectiveness on the spot.

The golden-winged ship was still like this, and the other warships could not resist the ironclad ships of the Zhou army that were going downstream, and the ship formation that had gathered in a hurry was instantly broken by the other party.

The windows on both sides of an ironclad ship suddenly opened, and several fire oil vents appeared in front of Chen Jun's soldiers, and before they could react, the burning fire oil gushed out.

In an instant, the front fleet of Chen Jun was entangled by multiple fire dragons, and countless Chen soldiers who were on fire wailed and rolled on the deck that was also on fire, and the smell of burnt meat came to their nostrils, making people retch.

It's a nightmare-like scene, but Chen Jun's nightmare has just begun.

In the original sea of fire, several ironclad warships appeared, and on one of the big ships, a flagpole was erected in a hurry, and then a big flag with the word "handsome" was raised, waving in the wind.

Lai Hu'er, the head of the Lingnan Road marching army, has been smoked into a big flower face, and after a quick conversation with several other generals with the same big face, he issued the latest order:

"Drums! Ironclad assault in full force! ”
