Chapter 614: A Time of Life and Death
"Let's get on board!"
Su Zhe also stepped on Gan Ning's flagship, which was one of the few ships in the Wei army.
He needs to follow the raft himself to determine when to launch a weather attack and change the direction of the wind.
Under Gan Ning's order, the building ship slowly sailed out of the water camp, followed by more than 500 naval warships, all of them left the camp, lined up in formation, and followed the fire raft to the downstream.
In addition, nearly a thousand transport ships carried tens of thousands of the main force of the Wei army, following the main fleet for several miles.
Although Su Zhe was confident, he was not confident to the point of arrogance, and he was also prepared for defeat, in case the war was unfavorable, if the transport ship was too close and there was no time to retreat, wouldn't it be to annihilate the whole army.
The sun sank and the moon rose, and the heavens and the earth descended into the darkness of night.
The Yangtze River in front of you is as bright as day by the fire raft, and the scenes on both sides of the river are clearly visible.
The fleet sailed down the river and soon approached the waters of Chaisang, and as far as the eye could see, the sparkling enemy camp of Chaisan had appeared on the southern shore.
At this moment, the Jiangdong Navy has been dispatched, and thousands of warships are lined up in front of the water camp, forming an arch guard.
Su Zhe looked up at the sky and silently connected the quantum meteorological satellite in space orbit with brain waves.
"Give me an immediate storm attack, the wind will go northwest, aim at the enemy fleet and the water camp, and I will burn them to the ground!"
"Beep, enter the coordinate range, the simulated wind direction is completed, the weapon system energy is saturated, and the quantum beam is launched!"
In the sky, an invisible quantum beam was immediately launched, covering the corresponding area.
The battle flags of the ships soon fluttered violently, and the originally gentle southeast wind suddenly turned around and turned into a northwest wind.
The sudden north wind turned into a howling wind in a blink of an eye, and even the flagpole above his head was almost blown off.
"The wind is blowing! Look, the wind is blowing! β
"It's a northeast wind, just in time to send a raft to the enemy."
"This is really God helping our Great Wei."
"What kind of heavenly help, it must be our King Wei who uses immortal magic to call the wind and rain."
The soldiers of the Wei army on each boat were as excited as crazy, and the excited shouts resounded throughout the river.
"With this north wind, Sun Ce has to wait for his ability to reach the sky, and there will be another good show tonight."
Gan Ning beside him was also excited, and couldn't help laughing.
Su Zhe also looked leisurely, chewing broad beans in his mouth, watching the raft of the river from a distance turned by the strong wind, from downstream to facing the south bank, sitting and waiting to watch the grand occasion of burning firewood and mulberry.
On the south bank, the Koto Army fleet.
On the flagship of the ship, Sun Ce was standing solemnly, staring at the countless fire rafts coming upstream.
"Su thief, you really want to attack ...... with fire" Sun Ce smiled coldly, and the corners of his mouth raised a touch of sarcasm.
Sun Cexiao's sarcasm seemed to be under his control.
Lu Meng, Ling Tong and other generals on the left and right, but their faces were solemn, and they all pinched a cold sweat.
The Jiangdong soldiers of each ship were all scared, and their nerves tensed in the face of the fire raft that came from the river.
It was thousands of rafts, overwhelming, and there was no way to stop them.
If these thousands of rafts had crashed into their warships, and into their water camps on the south shore, everything would have been finished.
"Don't worry too much, my lord, this raft is going downstream, our warships and water camp are on the south bank, and the raft may not be able to hit it."
Lu Meng thought that Sun Ce's heart was as nervous as him, so he whispered relief.
Sun Ce responded with a sneer.
Woo β
At this moment, the north wind howled, and the original gentle river wind was suddenly replaced by a fierce northwest wind.
Under the strong wind, thousands of fire rafts that were still going down the east side of the river immediately changed direction and swept towards the east bank.
The Jiangdong Army was immediately shocked.
"Look, the raft is coming towards us."
"How is it possible, so good, why is there a northwest wind all of a sudden?"
"This must be the King of Wei who is using witchcraft again, what can I do."
The panicked cries soon resounded throughout the river, and the Jiangdong Army, both on the boat and on the shore, fell into a state of panic.
Lu Meng's face also changed in shock, and he hurriedly said: "I didn't expect that Su thief used demon magic again, lord, quickly order to send a boat to block the fire raft, it will be too late." β
Lu Su sighed: "The enemy's rafts are as many as three or five thousand, so many of them, where do we have enough small boats to send out, only a few hundred rafts are missing, and everything is over." β
Lu Meng was stunned, cold sweat was pouring out on his forehead, and he was as wise as him, and he was helpless at this time.
He glanced back at the flying raft, gritted his teeth, and arched his hand: "Lord, since it can't be stopped, please turn the bow of the ship quickly, withdraw our warship downstream, and let the soldiers and horses of the water camp immediately abandon the camp and retreat to Chaisang City." β
Up to now, Lu Meng can't think of any other way, but as soon as this plan comes out, it is equivalent to giving up control of the water to Wei Jun.
At that time, Su Zhe's army could calmly cross the river and board the south bank to surround Chaisang.
The Wei naval army under the command of Gan Ning could easily control the waters of Chaisang, blocking the river by setting up iron locks and other means to prevent them from moving west again to regain control of the water.
At that time, the city of Chaisang will become a lonely city surrounded by danger.
Once Chaisang is in danger, the door to Jiangdong will be opened, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Lord, we can't retreat, once we retreat, there is a chance that Chaisang will not be safe." The veteran Huang Gai immediately persuaded hard.
Lu Meng sighed: "What the veteran general said is right, but if we don't withdraw, it is possible that the whole army will be wiped out in the enemy's fire. β
"Unless, the old general has the means to block the Su thief's raft, does the old general have it?" Lu Meng asked coldly.
Huang Gai was speechless, dumbfounded.
Of course he didn't, even Lu Meng couldn't think of a way to crack it, let alone him.
"Alasβ" Huang Gai stomped his foot hard, his face full of reluctance, but helpless.
Lu Meng bowed his hand again, and said with a straight face: "Lord, the raft is coming over soon, please make a decision quickly!" β
Sun Ce's expression was as indifferent as before from beginning to end, and his sarcastic eyes seemed to have not taken the fire raft array on the opposite side in his eyes at all, and he also turned a deaf ear to the discussions of Lu Meng, Huang Gai and others.
He turned around and made a glance gesture to Lu Su.
Lu Su understood, and immediately got out of the cabin, and after a while, he led a white-haired Taoist with a wind and fairy bones to the top deck of the building ship and came to Sun Ce.
"General Sun, is the time come?" The white-haired Taoist nodded slightly, and asked lightly.
Sun Ce also saluted back, pointed to the fire raft in front of him and said: "Daoist Yu, that Su thief used demonic magic to summon the northwest wind, and if you want to blow these thousands of fire rafts to our water army and water camp, the life and death of millions of people in Jiangdong will be in the hands of Dao Chief, please help me." β
