Chapter 910: Crossing the Yangtze River

At this time, Tan Lin, who was about to be surrounded, turned his head and began to order the Feng soldiers to fill the oil jar.

At his command, an altar of oil was loaded onto a series of small stone throwers.

"Ignition!"

"Put!"

The sound of the catapult bouncing came and went, and the oil altar was projected, which crossed an arc in the air and smashed on the Chu army's warship.

"Bang! Bang-"

There was a crackling sound everywhere, mixed with the miserable howls of the Chu soldiers.

And the fire oil, when it was touched, smashed down the already burning warship, the place where the oil stains splashed was instantly covered with fire.

In the sky-high fire, many Chu soldiers were covered in flames and jumped into the river in a hurry.

"Firefighting! Quickly put out the fireβ€”" Some Chu generals began to shout loudly.

"Don't rush to put out the fire! Spread out first! Fast! Wang Shuang roared directly.

The current warships of the Chu army are very close to each other, and if the wind direction is so close, if it is blocked here, I am afraid that the whole army will be in danger!

And Wang Shuang's military order is undoubtedly very wise, only by immediately scattering the warships can the casualties be minimized.

But Lu Chen's main attack place is obviously not here, but the battalion of the Chu army's sailors.

Only by breaking through the big camp and the wind army can they cross the Yangtze River and land ashore!

Just after Wang Shuang was attacked here, not long after, the camp of the Chu Army's sailors was also attacked by fire.

At this moment, Wang Shuang led the main force to the fullest, and the green troops who stayed in the camp were all foot soldiers, and they couldn't fight a water battle at all, and they couldn't stop the impact of the wind army's warships.

And the projectiles from the oil altar here are much denser than Wang Shuang's side.

An altar of fire oil smashed all over the camp, and the sound of clay pots bursting filled the audience.

At the same time, the soldiers of the wind also set their arrows on the warship, and the arrows were loaded with arrows, and ten thousand arrows were fired at the same time.

The rain of fire in the sky poured down and nailed all over the camp, and the oil altar of the wind army did not stop for a moment.

In just an instant, the entire Chu army camp was on fire everywhere, and the fire took advantage of the wind, burning bigger and bigger, spreading wantonly, and it was impossible to stop it at all!

The fire snake devoured people's lives, and many of the green soldiers were burned and danced, making a terrible howl, and those who were close to the river also jumped directly into the river.

At this time, the deputy general of the Qingjun also hurriedly walked over, hugged his fist towards Yue Heng and said, "Yue Handsome!" ”

Looking at the firelight in the sky, Yue Heng shook his head slightly and said, "Wang Shuang is defeated." ”

"That'...... So what do we do now? The adjutant asked.

Yue Heng took a deep breath and said decisively, "Withdraw!" Withdraw to Hanyang! ”

"Huh?" When the adjutant general heard this, he couldn't help but say, "But the more handsome we are, if our troops retreat, the wind army will definitely land." ”

"Don't hesitate any longer!" Yue Heng said directly: "It's impossible to hold on here!" The camp of the Chu army has been destroyed, and after Wang Shuang's defeat, he can only retreat to Hanyang, go and give orders! ”

"No!" The adjutant general said no more and walked away with his fists clenched.

Of course, Yue Heng has his own ideas, if the Qing army sticks here, he will inevitably have to fight head-on with the wind army foot soldiers, but once that time comes, how can the 100,000 Qing army reach the hundreds of thousands of wind army, I'm afraid they will all be explained here.

Qingwang has such a little money left, if the whole army is destroyed, then there will be nothing!

The Feng army attacked the camp, and the Qing army had almost no losses, so they hurriedly retreated, and the retreat of Yue Heng undoubtedly directly gave Lu Chen the opportunity to land, where would he hesitate.

When the warship docked, countless soldiers of the Wind Army began to land quickly with hard bows on their backs and halberds in their hands.

"Quick! Keep upβ€”" A general stood on the shore and began to command loudly.

The sound of the infantry army filling the audience, and it didn't take long for hundreds of thousands of wind troops to successfully cross the Sanjiang estuary.

On the other side, after Wang Shuang was attacked, the fire spread, and the Chu army was in chaos, where did he still have the heart to chase and kill Tan Lin, but he had no choice but to retreat in a hurry.

His losses were still relatively large, not to mention that dozens of warships were destroyed by fire, and many Chu troops were burned to death or jumped into the river.

Seeing his retreat, a general on Tan Lin's side immediately asked, "General Tan, Wang Shuang was defeated and retreated, will our army pursue?" ”

"Chase!" Tan Lin waved his hand directly. He was originally a partial general of the Chu army, but in the face of Wang Shuang, he didn't mean to be soft at all, and he didn't hesitate.

"Tan Lin dog thief, deceive me too much!" On the Chu army warship, Wang Shuang gritted his teeth, originally, he wanted to retreat to the naval division camp, but just halfway through, there was a Chu army patrol speedboat in front of him, and when he reached the side of his warship, the soldiers on the fast boat immediately clasped their fists and said, "General!" Big things are wrong! The Wind King took advantage of our army to chase the enemy and attack the camp, and now the entire camp is already in a sea of fire! ”

"What!?" When Wang Shuang heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he looked like he was about to burst.

"Oops, General! What a good thing that is! There are also biased generals who immediately shouted in grief.

At this time, if Wang Shuang retreats to the big camp again, it will undoubtedly be equivalent to a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, and what awaits him will be hundreds of thousands of Feng army foot soldiers who have successfully landed!

He stared blankly until a long time before he came back to his senses, and then said in a trembling voice, "Withdraw!" Withdraw, retreat downstream! ”

"Huh!?" The general was stunned when he heard this.

"Quick!" Wang Shuang urged urgently.

Subsequently, the Chu army sailors began to go down the river, because they were worried that Lu Chen would chase and intercept, Wang Shuang did not dare to stop and clean up Tan Lin, he was chased all the way, until he went down the river for dozens of miles, he had a chance to breathe, and immediately ordered the warship to dock, chose a place, led the army to land, and traveled north lightly, heading towards Hanyang.

Yue Heng was right, once the Sanjiangkou was lost, the Chu army could only withdraw to Hanyang.

And Hanyang is a battleground for soldiers, a springboard for the infantry army to attack Chu, if this place is lost, the entire Chu country will also be finished!

A few days later, Wang Shuang gathered the remnants of his army, gathered all the Chu troops, about 500,000 people, and finally arrived in Hanyang.

And at this time, Yue Heng had already led the Qingjun to wait for him here.

After the two sides met, Wang Shuang's face was extremely ugly, and he directly began to question Yue Hengdao, "I asked the general to stay in the camp, and the general's headquarters is full of 100,000 people, why did he abandon the camp and go!" ”

He was angry, and it was inevitable that he would be angry, and when Yue Heng heard this, he smiled slightly, and explained, "The general is angry, not because I don't want to defend the camp, but because the Wind King took a fire attack, with the situation at that time, the wind direction was extremely unfavorable to the camp, and it was impossible to extinguish the fire at all." ”

"Humph!" Wang Shuang snorted coldly and said extremely dissatisfied, "But the general shouldn't just abandon the camp!" You know, I'm on my way back! ”

Yue Heng shook his head helplessly, and said in a harmonious voice, "The matter has come to this point, please calm the general's anger, and now, discuss how to hold Hanyang." ”

The loss of Sanjiangkou may be unacceptable to Wang Shuang, but it is not much touched by Yue Heng.

The sailors of the Chu army did not dare to fight a land battle with the Feng army, but they were cross, obviously with a certain degree of confidence.
