Chapter 948: Attack and kill Zhou Yu
"Pass my orders, beat the drums, set fires!"
Zhou Yu stood at the bow of the boat, even though his hair was scattered, he was still heroic.
The east wind has risen as soon as it blows the horn of counter-charge for the animal water army that has been cornered.
Even if he was as calm as Zhou Yu and clenched his right hand with the sword, he was a little pale because of the excessive force. However, this did not affect Zhou Yu's order.
"Knock knock!"
"Knock knock!"
"Knock knock!"
With Zhou Yu's order, the sound of war drums changed suddenly, and the generals of Eastern Wu, who were still directing the soldiers to flee, showed ecstasy on their faces.
They have been waiting for the east wind for a long time.
If the east wind had not come, the Eastern Wu naval army would have really been wiped out here, and if it weren't for the generals' trust in Zhou Yu, they would have abandoned the ship and fled.
"Set fire!"
"Set fire!"
"Set fire!"
One order after another was conveyed, and the Soochow warships firmly occupied the east and began to set fire to them with impunity.
At first, the east wind did not blow violently, because there was some distance between the reeds, and even if the fire began to spread, it did not help the overall situation.
Gan Ning took a warship and chased after the Soochow Navy, but after chasing, he actually saw the Soochow Navy's reeds on fire.
"Are they crazy?"
Gan Ning was stunned when he saw this situation, not knowing what the Soochow Navy was thinking.
"General, general, the wind seems to have changed."
At this moment, a slightly frightened voice sounded in Gan Ning's ears.
When Gan Ning heard this, he hurriedly observed the direction of the wind.
When he saw that the reeds were swaying regularly to the west, his face suddenly turned extremely pale.
"How is it possible, how can the east wind blow this season?"
Gan Ning was frightened, and immediately shouted loudly: "Retreat, retreat, retreat quickly!" ”
At this time, Gan Ning, where is there any general's demeanor, his face is full of fear.
He was not afraid that he might lose his life, but because he was afraid that these Guanzhong water armies would be burned.
If that were the case, Guanzhong, which had lost control of the Yellow River, would have unpredictable consequences.
And Gan Ning will also become a sinner in the entire Guanzhong.
Although the east wind is not blowing much now, and it cannot affect the Guanzhong warships in a short period of time, Gan Ning finally figured out why Zhou Yu led the Dongwu Navy to be stationed in the reeds.
Chen Xu kept writing to Gan Ning, asking him to be careful of Zhou Yu.
At the beginning, Gan Ning was also cautious, but with the victory of the water battles, Gan Ning did not take Zhou Yu seriously.
It wasn't until now that he understood that maybe the previous naval clashes were still reserved on the Soochow side.
The reason why they have been defeated repeatedly is to paralyze Gan Ning, so as to give a fatal blow to the Guanzhong Navy here.
Gan Ning can imagine that there are also people in the coalition who are as proficient in the weather as their own lords, and they have long expected that the east wind will blow today.
Then, the east wind, which still seems a little faint now, may become crazy in the next moment.
"Run, run, hurry up and escape outside the reeds!"
Now the east wind is not very strong, and although the reeds are burning, this is the surface of the lake after all, and many of the reeds are still a little far apart.
Therefore, the fire was not very ferocious.
Rao so, and the fire began to slowly spread to the west.
"Withdraw! Remove! Evacuate! ”
The generals of the Guanzhong Navy were not stupid, they felt the change in the direction of the wind, and after seeing the fire of the Dongwu Navy Army, they suddenly roared hoarsely.
Many Guanzhong Navy soldiers were still at a loss.
However, out of trust in the manager, most of them hurriedly turned the bow of the boat and rushed out of the reeds.
"Whew!"
However, at this time, the easterly wind, which had been relatively small, suddenly became so fierce that it almost blew off the reeds.
"Whoa!"
As soon as the east wind rose, the fire, which had been slowly spreading, suddenly swept towards the west like a plague.
"Fire, fire is coming, run away!"
When Sergeant Guan saw the fire getting closer and closer, he was terrified and screamed loudly, trying to paddle the boat.
However, although the speed of the warship was fast, under the action of the fierce east wind, it could not outrun the raging flames at all.
The reeds, which were still a little gap, were almost blown together by the fierce east wind, and the flames stretched their necks, quickly igniting one reed after another.
Many warships were engulfed in flames in an instant.
There were also some warships, due to the mistakes of the soldiers, which sailed in other directions in the reeds and ran aground directly.
There is no doubt that these stranded warships will not escape the nightmare sooner or later.
Not only that, but the east wind rolled up a lot of choking smoke, which poured over the sky and the sun, and the sound was terrifying.
Many of the sergeants were shrouded in smoke, their breathing became rapid, their eyes were red and swollen from the smoke, and they could not see the direction of their progress.
This makes the already chaotic Guanzhong Navy more and more chaotic.
More and more warships ran aground in the reeds due to the misoperation of the sailors, and then slowly engulfed in the fire.
"Ahem, ahem!"
For Sergeant Guan, the smoke was sometimes more unbearable than the fire.
For an army, smoke is an ancient version of a biological weapon, and its lethality is amazing.
"Cover your mouth and nose with a damp cloth!"
Gan Ning coughed and yelled loudly.
However, Gan Ning's voice was drowned out by the wind and the exclamations of the soldiers, and there was no way to convey it.
Seeing that the water army under his command was in chaos, Gan Ning immediately looked at it, but he also felt deeply powerless.
Even though Gan Ning is brave, he is so small in the face of fire and smoke.
The fire was raging, and the Guanzhong Naval Army, which had completely gained the upper hand, was burned in this way, and there were few survivors of the small and medium-sized warships that entered the reeds.
Gan Ning chased Zhou Yu to the front, and when the fire burned, even though his warship was extremely fast, he still couldn't escape.
Gan Ning had no choice but to jump into the water.
"Capture Gan Ning alive!"
"Capture Gan Ning alive!"
"Capture Gan Ning alive!"
Different from the tragic situation of the Guanzhong Naval Army, the Eastern Wu Naval Army was like a rainbow at this time, shouting loudly, and chasing and killing the Guanzhong Naval Army behind the flames.
Since the Soochow naval army was located upwind, even if they were in the reeds, they were not engulfed in fire and smoke.
On the contrary, after the fire burned westward through a barrier, the reeds on the lake were almost swept away, and the vision of the Soochow naval army also became broader.
"Kill!"
The Dongwu Navy Army, all with excitement on their faces, used scratching hooks to keep catching those Guan sergeants who jumped into the water.
"Hugh is leaving, Gan Ning!"
Zhou Yu stood on the bow of the ship, commanding calmly, never forgetting the arrest of Gan Ning.
In the entire Guanzhong, there is only one naval general, Gan Ning, as long as he can be captured and killed, the Guanzhong naval army is no longer afraid.
Therefore, Zhou Yu played such a big game of chess and prepared such a fire to burn the reeds.
The generals of Eastern Wu, Zhu Zhi, Ling Tong, Xu Sheng, Ding Feng, Pan Zhang, Chen Wu, Zhu Huan, Quan Cong, Zhu Ran and others also had green eyes at this time, commanding the warships to patrol around.
Even, many people took off their shirts, and after seeing Gan Ning, they jumped into the water and grabbed him.
"Gan Ning is there!"
Suddenly, Xu Sheng saw a head emerge from the water, and he was immediately ecstatic and roared loudly.
Seeing this, the rest of the Eastern Wu lords and generals turned their eyes over.
After Gan Ning emerged from the water, he glanced at Zhou Yu with a gloomy face, and then swam in the other direction.
Some of the Eastern Wu soldiers wanted to grab the merit and drove the warship to chase after them, but they had not been walking long before the warship ran aground.
After all, although the water is deep in some places in the reeds, boats are not allowed in many places.
Seeing this, Zhou Yu's eyes froze, and he shouted: "Those who are good at water-based go into the water to arrest Gan Ning, Hugh is going to leave this person!" ”
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
Zhou Yu gave an order, and nearly a thousand people immediately threw themselves into the water, including several generals of Eastern Wu.
Even, even many of the soldiers on Zhou Yu's boat jumped into the water, preparing to capture Gan Ning alive and establish immortal miracles.
Nearly 2,000 people were in the water, chasing towards Gan Ning, and this scene was also a bit shocking.
In fact, it is not surprising that so many people have gone into the water, after all, the Dongwu Navy lacks water and land warfare, but its combat effectiveness in the water should not be underestimated.
Zhou Yu kept looking at Gan Ning, but saw that Gan Ning suddenly plunged into the water, and his figure disappeared again.
Zhou Yu's eyes froze, and he shouted loudly: "Separate five hundred people to swim backwards and cut off Gan Ning's retreat into the reeds." ”
Although the reeds on the west side have been burned, there are still many reeds in the east because they are upwind.
If Gan Ning is allowed to escape, it will be much more difficult to catch him.
Zhou Yu gave an order, Xu Sheng immediately led five hundred sailors and soldiers to swim in the designated direction, and the rest of the Eastern Wu generals also led the soldiers to surround and kill Gan Ning to the place where Gan Ning dived.
Not only that, but the Soochow warships also began to disperse, expanding the search area.
Time passed little by little, and those Guanzhong sailors who were outside the reeds were also panicked after seeing the fire.
But now, they did not dare to enter the reeds at all, so they could only wait quietly.
Time passed little by little, but Gan Ning never looked back again, and the soldiers of Eastern Wu searched around, but they didn't find Gan Ning's figure.
"What's going on?"
Zhou Yu frowned, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Didn't Gan Ningmo already flee to the reeds?"
Looking at the reeds swaying in the wind in the distance, Zhou Yu muttered to himself, and there was a trace of disbelief in his eyes.
Zhou Yu didn't believe that Gan Ning could be so powerful, and he could be so fierce that he could directly pierce into the reeds in the distance.
At least, in the entire territory of Soochow, no one can do it.
"Boom!"
At this moment, a figure suddenly jumped out of the water and pounced directly on the warship that Zhou Yu was on.
This person is Gan Ning, but his dark face has now turned purple, which shows that a breath of anger has pierced Zhou Yu's place, and Gan Ning himself is not very comfortable.
"Zhou Yu, suffer death!"
Gan Ning took a few breaths, and with full of anger, he killed Zhou Yu fiercely.
