"It's a good thing I didn't send my own warship!"

Looking at the staggering warship, Cai Mao felt a sense of happiness in her heart.

Cai Mao's happiness was bitter for Chen Heng, his ten ships had to break away from the battle sequence, temporarily return to Yuzhang to prepare for repairs, and dozens of people died for no reason, which caused a certain blow to the morale of his subordinates.

For this reason, Chen Heng had to break the bank and win over, because he was still alive at this time, because he had nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands who still listened to him.

One of Cai Mao's tasks is to eliminate the Lujiang Water Army, but in the face of such a perverted water village, he knows that this is not a problem that can be solved in a moment.

In the next few days, Cai Mao led the navy to patrol the Yangtze River every day, and when he was tired, he went to the gate of the Lujiang Water Village to anchor and rest, and then scolded and forced the Lujiang Water Army to come out for a decisive battle, and the Lujiang plates could not be put into the water, Liu Xun was so angry that he trembled but there was no way, obviously there were hundreds of warships but he could only shrink in the water village to endure humiliation and steal his life, and the morale of the soldiers was also hit lower and lower.

Seeing that Liu Xun could not maintain his morale, Cai Mao sneered, and was ready to lead his army to attack when his morale was low to a certain extent, so as to minimize his own losses, because the purpose of eliminating the Lujiang naval army was to prevent the Yuan army in Jiangbei from crossing the river to support Jiangdong, and landing in Jiangdong was his real goal, so he had to maintain enough troops to maintain combat effectiveness.

On this day, as soon as the Jingzhou Navy completed its supplies and was about to leave Yuzhang, the patrolling Chima Clipper sent a courier, saying that the Lujiang Water Village had taken advantage of the dawn to send 21 ships to Danyang County, and the purpose was unknown.

Cai Mao heard that the report was a little unclear, so he didn't know what the purpose of Lujiang was to divide this warship.

In order to prevent accidents, he repeated his old tricks and sent Chen Heng's warships to pursue and probe, so that even if there was any conspiracy, it was not the Jingzhou naval army that was lost.

After receiving the order, Chen Heng led 10 intact fighting ships and 20 sterns in his headquarters to pursue; And Cai Mao led the remaining 10 building ships, 50 fighting ships, and 100 ships of Jingzhou's own team to Lujiang Water Village, continued to monitor the opponent's naval army, and waited for Chen Heng's news by the way.

If there is no accident, he intends to deal with the naval army of Lujiang this time, because he has already received information that Danyang Wanling's Eastern Army has moved towards the Yangtze River, and his second task has been completed, and there is no need to delay it any longer.

Solve the Lujiang Water Army, he will have no worries, and then Danyang County will be like a martyr who has lost the ability to resist, let him do whatever he wants!

……

"Report! Qi Yu Metropolitan Governor, General Chen Heng was defeated in the battle with the enemy's naval army, please send troops to support! "After Cai Mao led the navy to guard the gate of the Lujiang Water Village for two hours, the herald finally came with the news of Chen Heng, but unfortunately it was not good news.

"Sure enough, there is a problem!" Hearing the herald's report, Cai Mao was a little secretly proud, he was afraid that the other party would have some tricks so he sent Chen Heng to pursue, and now it turns out that his guess is right!

"What happened, was it an ambush? How many warships and how many sailors are there on the enemy? ”

The herald replied, "The enemy has only twenty-one ships that have left here in the morning, and no other ambushes have joined the battle. ”

"Uh-huh???" Cai Mao was stunned when she heard this, and then said with an annoyed face, "What do you mean?" Chen Heng's ten fighting ships and twenty ships can't beat the opponent's twenty ships? ”

"Enlighten the Grand Governor, the enemy is twenty-one ......"

"Get out!" Cai Mao kicked the herald over with a kick, and then ordered angrily, "The whole army set sail, I want to see what this Chen Heng has become of!" ”

……

At this time, Chen Heng, who was on the other side of the Yangtze River, was already sweating profusely, and the sweat had not stopped since he saw the other party shoot a bunch of stone bullets from the warship.

He was ordered by Cai Mao to pursue the enemy, but in fact the enemy was not caught up by him, but sent to the door by others.

When Chen Heng saw the "Yuan" banner hanging on the oncoming enemy ship, he was very excited, because there was only one person who could hang this handsome flag in the Eastern Army, and that was Yuan Yao, the general of the Eastern Army.

The other party's flagship is just a relatively strange ship, and the warships led by him are all the same ships, and the number is less than him, which means that with his current warships and troops, the success rate of capturing Yuan Yao is very high.

Yuan Yao is now not only the son of Yuan Shu; The chief general of the Eastern Army, I recently heard that Xu Shao's old guy was scared to death when he evaluated him, and now many people are talking about this matter.

If he could capture or kill Yuan Yao at this moment, it would be of great benefit to Chen Heng's prestige, which was something he urgently needed now.

Prestige in the Han Dynasty is a good thing, not only can determine a person's status, but also can even determine a person's fate and life, which is definitely a good medicine for Chen Heng, who is now full of days.

However, when he grabbed the knife and drove the boat to kill the other party, a bunch of stone bullets instantly reminded him of what he had encountered in Lujiang Water Village a few days ago, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, and then he never stopped.

When Chen Heng saw that the opponent's warship smashed out a bunch of fire oil bombs and ignited one of his ships, he simply ordered the whole army to retreat.

But unfortunately, at this time, he found that the nightmare had just begun, because his warship could not outrun at all, and the warships that fell behind were constantly set on fire by the enemy, so he was afraid that the whole army would be wiped out if he did not wait to return to Jingzhou.

As a last resort, Chen Heng put down the red horse boat on the flagship, and asked people to hurry forward to ask Cai Mao for help, otherwise he might have to choose to surrender.

One, two...... Five, six...... Eight, nine, when Chen Heng's ninth ship was ignited by the pursuing battleship, he finally saw the oncoming Jingzhou naval army.

Counting the first one, Chen Heng's warship was lit by Yuan Yao's battleship formation with ten warships, and no one knew what the result of these warships was, because their oarsmen were burned and could no longer continue rowing, so they all lost their mobility and were left behind, in view of the situation that the battleships were caught up again, these warships are probably unlikely to be saved, as for the soldiers on board, it can only depend on luck.

Chen Heng was now glad that he saw the opportunity early, and ordered a retreat when he saw that the opponent's warship could throw fire oil bombs dozens of steps away, otherwise it would definitely not be just a loss of ten ships now.

He now had to go and remind Cai Mao immediately, otherwise he would probably suffer another loss without his knowledge, so he put down a small boat and prepared to go to Cai Mao in person to explain.

At this time, the battleship formation led by Yuan Yao stopped the pursuit and began to re-form after seeing the main force of the Jingzhou naval army, and in the face of the huge number of enemies, they had no intention of retreating or fleeing.

When Chen Heng drove the boat to the channel of the Jingzhou Navy Army, he never thought that the other party did not stop to let him get on the boat, but drove directly over and rushed towards the battleship formation led by Yuan Yao, and Chen Heng's boat was almost overturned by the waves stirred up by the building boat, and suddenly looked embarrassed.

"Rubbish!"

"Hahaha......"

Looking at Chen Heng's stupid appearance, Cai Mao on the boat scolded disdainfully, and the generals around him also laughed.

In the face of a battleship formation of only twenty-one ships, the Jingzhou Navy did not even have the desire to redeploy, and the generals on the flagship did not bother to return to their own fleet, but directly crushed it down the river.

In their opinion, the next battle is without suspense.

Chen Heng commanded the soldiers to try their best to avoid the warship passing through the stream, and his mouth was followed by angry scolding, his resentful decision was silent, and he also secretly prayed that Yuan Yao could teach Cai Mao a profound lesson, and by the way, he would vent his evil anger for him......
