Chapter 516: This Can't Be Done!
"What the Metropolitan Governor said is, why didn't I think of this?" Zhou An scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.
Subsequently, Zhou Quan followed Zhou Yu's intention and issued an order to attack the fleet, and for a while, the sound of drums and shouts shook the earth, and the fleet of Wu Jun launched an attack on Liu He's fleet.
At this time, Liu Hejun did not have a trace of panic, and even Xu Chu on the largest building ship, the "Five Teeth Giant Ship", said in surprise: "I really didn't expect Wu Jun to really attack us, the lord is simply a god." ”
Liu He, who was beside Xu Chu, smiled lightly: "This is actually nothing to make a fuss about, the entire Wu army has always thought that our army is not proficient in water warfare, plus they are in the upper reaches, they will definitely start a war against our army." ”
For such a big battle, Liu He naturally wanted to participate in it personally, he had already personally led the army from Chang'an to Nanjun before he issued the order to attack Jiangling, and after making the overall deployment, he knew that Zhou Yu would definitely lose this battle, and he would definitely pass through the river where he led the army to ambush.
In fact, for the war with Jiangdong, Liu He had already prepared in advance, since five years ago, he had drawn a map of the new warship Haihu ship and the Wuya giant ship, sent skilled craftsmen to rush to build, and sent Gan Ning, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, who were proficient in naval tactics, to conduct secret training, plus Huang Zu convened the remnants of the original Jiangxia naval army in Jiangxia, and secretly recruited new personnel, resulting in the rapid expansion of Liu He's naval army in recent years, and the total number has reached 50,000.
In addition, Liu He will also transfer Pang Tong back from Liaodong in advance, and use Pang Tong's continuous replacement skills to directly connect all the warships into a whole, which is equivalent to building a large pontoon bridge, so that the soldiers are no longer afraid of the bumps of the wind and waves, even if they are ordinary soldiers, there will be no reduction in combat power when they participate in the battle.
Of course, in the face of such a large fleet, even with Pang Tong's high intelligence, this kind of chain can only last for two hours in a day, and good steel must be used on the blade, and such a skill naturally cannot be used now.
Since everything was expected, Liu He was not surprised that Zhou Yu would choose to fight with him, he saw that Zhou Yu had launched an attack, and immediately ordered the navy to meet him.
Now the total number of Liu He's naval army has reached 50,000, plus advanced warships, and Gan Ning, who is proficient in naval tactics, personally led the army to fight on the front line, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun as staff officers, if they dare not fight head-on with the other party in such a situation, how can this naval team really grow?
With the sound of drums, Gan Ning first led his fleet to rush up, he was on a fighting ship, this fighting ship was larger than the average scale, although the action was not too flexible, but the victory was huge, all the enemy boats encountered along the way were knocked over by his fighting ship.
In this process, Gan Ning's fighting ship naturally became the target of special attention of the enemy's archers, only the sound of swishing breaking through the air was heard continuously, but the lethality caused was extremely limited, because the fighting ship was equipped with protective facilities such as a female wall around the ship, and when the enemy's bows and arrows arrived, the soldiers all hid behind the female wall.
Gan Ning, however, did not bother to dodge, he stood on the deck, brandished the broadsword in his hand, blocked all the feathered arrows he fired, and at the same time ordered the soldiers who rowed the oars to row desperately, speeding up and rushing towards the opposing camp.
Although Gan Ning's fighting ship was very large, because of the thirty-six oars designed on the ship, it was also very fast after it started with all its might, and it quickly rushed to the vicinity of Zhou Yu's building boat, and the enemy ships that blocked it along the way fell into the water one after another.
"He rushed over like this, he didn't take me seriously." Seeing this, Zhou Yu on the boat snorted coldly, and as soon as his mind moved, he immediately launched a fire plan, only to see that the fighting ship that Gan Ning was riding on spontaneously combusted for no reason.
However, before Zhou Yu could laugh, he saw that the flames on the fighting ship were extinguished, and Zhou Yu snorted, he knew that his skills must have been cracked.
And in fact, this time, in order to deal with Zhou Yu's fire plan, Liu He deliberately transferred Xu Shu from Hanzhong, and when he saw Zhou Yu's fire plan unleashed, Xu Shu immediately launched the silent speech skill and broke Zhou Yu's fire plan.
"Good! Zhou Yu's fire plan was broken, and it was time for our naval officers and soldiers to show their might. Seeing this scene, Liu He did not need to be reminded by Cai Mao and others, and immediately ordered the officers and men of the navy to rush over bravely and start a battle against the enemy's ships.
At this time, Liu He's naval army's equipment advantage was completely demonstrated, although the Haihu ship was inferior to the fighting ship in terms of collision ability, and inferior to the building ship in terms of size, but it was fast, maneuverable, and its combat effectiveness was far stronger than that of ordinary ships, and the armor was also thick.
However, Zhou Yu did not show weakness, and immediately ordered those small boats such as walkers and ships to rush up, surround those relatively large seabird boats from all sides, hook the hull with a hook, take the sampan, jump from the small boat into the big boat, and start the battle to seize the ship.
This kind of battle is a test of the combat ability of the navy, because the two sides are not only comparing combat power, but also balance adaptation, although Liu He's naval army is not weak, but after all, it has just been trained for three years, and some even only have one year, where is the elite of these battle-hardened naval forces under Zhou Yu can compare? So it didn't take long for the battle to gradually fall into disadvantage.
Although Liu He had the purpose of training the soldiers, he couldn't really watch them suffer heavy injuries, so he immediately ordered Pang Tong to use a series of skills.
Suddenly, I saw that all the large ships in Liu He's army seemed to be connected together by iron locks, all the turbulence stopped immediately, and the soldiers felt as if they were on land, at this time, the soldiers who were lying in the cabin and vomiting wildly because they didn't understand the nature of water also stopped vomiting, and at the same time, a power of medicine and stone came, and the discomfort in everyone's stomach disappeared immediately, and their faces turned pale and ruddy, they knew that this must be the power of Hua Tuo, the god of medicine in the army, and the spirit was in a big array, They each took out the weapons in their hands, came to the deck, and killed the Jiangdong Army soldiers who wanted to seize the ship.
Although the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army are brave and fierce, but it also depends on who they are facing, now they are facing the full combat power, and at the same time by Zhao Yun's gun god, Liu He's military god and other skills of the bonus, everyone can be worthy of a military general with a force value of more than 70, it is a bit exaggerated to say that one is a hundred, but it is absolutely no problem to take one as ten.
Originally, the officers and men of the Han army on the big ships were only slightly inferior, but now with the help of the Bai Yu army, it immediately turned into an absolute advantage, and those Wu troops who were still clamoring to seize the ship and kill people were immediately slaughtered by one side.
"This, how is this possible? That's impossible! Zhou Yu's pupils were red, almost dripping blood, and at this moment, Guan Yu also led the Shu army to launch a flanking attack, Zhou Yu knew that his side was defeated in this battle, if he didn't escape, even if the whole army was wiped out, it was not impossible, so although he was unwilling, he had to order the withdrawal of troops.
