——

The ships of the naval division of the Chu army were soon sunk more than a dozen ships, and in the face of the enemy fighting ships entering the state of hungry wolves, the rear of the naval division of the Chu army involuntarily floated away, trying to avoid the impact of the enemy fighting ships.

Having never dealt with such a method of water warfare, the Chu army's sailors soon fell into disarray. However, the Chu army's reaction was undoubtedly faster in the face of the fighting ship group that was like a pack of wolves raiding, and Yao You, who commanded the warship of the Jiangdong Naval Division, saw that the square formation of the Chu Army's naval division was scattered by the fighting ship group, and he was overjoyed, so he gave an order: "Open the pulp and start the sails, advance at full speed, and press up——! ”

At this time, all the warships of the Jiangdong Navy Division rumbled and pressed, at this time, more than half of the Chu Army Naval Division had fallen into chaos, taking advantage of the chaos, the "first boarding" warship of the Jiangdong Navy Division leaned towards the Chu warship, and the sailors of the defense of the country suddenly stepped into the chaotic Chu warship and fought with it.

Seeing this scene, General Chu Junshui knew the general trend, so he did not hesitate to order to withdraw from Zhonggukou and enter the river to prepare to flee to Peng Lishui Village.

Not to mention that the speed of the warships of the Chu army's naval division was not as good as that of the warships, the group of 200 fighting ships that had already appeared downstream and was responsible for the head-on interception had already been waiting for the rabbits.

According to the law of water warfare, the upstream warships have a great impulse advantage when they go down the river, and at the same time rely on the sails or the ships powered by the pulpher, it is difficult for the downstream warships to resist the rush of the upstream warships, but Yao You, who commanded the Jiangdong Naval Division, did let the 200 fighting ships successfully intercept the downstream with their strong mobility, but they unbelievably lined up on the river and anchored the ship, which was clearly a posture of death battle.

When the generals of the Chu Army's Naval Division saw this scene, their eyes immediately became clear, and the Jiangdong Sailors wanted to leave all of them behind, and suddenly roared angrily: "Want to intercept our Army's Naval Division? Foolish dreams, quickly, break away from the enemy formation——! ”

The thirty clippers of the Chu army's sailors rushed with all their might, trying to break through the enemy's blockade and seize the way into the river, and the Jiangdong sailors who were chasing and killing upstream, Yao You, who commanded the boat, suddenly laughed when he saw this scene, according to the law of water warfare, it is true that it is difficult for the downstream warships to resist the rush of the upstream warships, but the warships are not among them.

Yao You's idea of water warfare is quite peculiar and eclectic, in his eyes, the enemy fighting ship intercepted at this moment is the enemy's warship, and the enemy warship is his own warship, the warship is specially used to assault the enemy ship with its narrow and long characteristics, although the warship is in a state of counter-current can not bring impulse, but the powerful impulse brought by the enemy army downstream upstream can also be used by me.

Because the power of the fighting ship depends on the powerful momentum of the assault formation, no matter which side this momentum comes from, as long as there is it, the difference is that after the two warships collide, the warships of the Chu army and the naval division will be seriously injured by their own momentum, or even sunk, while the warships will be fine.

In this moment, the fleeing Chu army's naval division warship unit collided with the intercepted warship group, and in an instant, the river waves were rising, the water swirled, the Chu army's warship was suddenly unstable, and the deck cabin suddenly panicked: "It's not good, the warship is in the water!" The ship is in the water, the ship is sinking, jump ship! ”

At this time, the advancing warships have tilted into the water, the sailors of the Chu army did not obey the order, and jumped out of ship in a panic to flee for their lives, Yao You did not give the enemy the slightest time to react, and the first warships took advantage of the chaos to approach the ships of the Chu army, and the guards killed the chaotic ships of the Chu State.

In two or three hours, the main force of the Chu army's naval division was wiped out in a sea of fire and fighting at the mouth of the middle valley.

"So vulnerable, how dare you claim to be the best in the world?" Yao You said coldly.

At the same time, just as a water battle broke out in the river, the high mountains of Zhonggukou suddenly burst into flames, and countless crossbow arrows penetrating the fire oil poured from the top of the mountain to the camp of Zhonggu Shuizhai like rain, and turned into a sea of fire in less than a quarter of an hour.

When the Chu army on the shore of the water village fled in panic in the sea of fire, the sound of killing suddenly rose from all sides, and the mountains on the side of the river suddenly appeared black pressure and pressed the infantry army rushed like a tide, all of them were warriors in fine armor.

It was the 20,000 foot soldiers led by Bai Qiqin to kill, and the commander gave an order, and the soldiers who originally carried bows and arrows collected their arrows one after another, and then took the sword from the waist to kill. Now the Chu State infantry in Zhonggukou are fleeing for their lives in chaos in a sea of fire, and the military discipline is gone, and they have already been generals who do not know soldiers, soldiers who do not know generals, and there is no counterattack to resist, with the arrival of 20,000 foot soldiers, all the 30,000 Chu infantry troops in Zhonggukou were defeated in less than an hour, and those who were alive were also surrendered.

After Bai Feifei entered the camp and recaptured Zhonggukou from the Chu army again, he concentrated more than 10,000 Chu troops and began to order the fire to be extinguished. Half an hour later, Yao You commanded the Jiangdong Naval Division to be stationed in Zhonggukou, and also brought nearly 8,000 Chu army sailors to surrender, and gathered them together to guard the mountain after Daocheng.

At dawn the next day, after the army had repaired all night, the warships sailed out of the mouth of the middle valley and into the river. The more than 18,000 soldiers of the Chu army were ordered by Bai Qi to be dismissed and returned to their hometowns.

The main force of the Chu State Water Division has been wiped out in the middle valley of the first battle, the main generals have been killed by Yao You, these ordinary soldiers are not threatening, it is useless to kill, and it is even more cumbersome to keep, just more than 10,000 mouths to eat is difficult to solve, this attack only carried three days of military rations, plus a fire and burned the grain and grass of the Chu army in the mouth of the middle valley, and there was no surplus food left for the surrendered troops.

In the spring water of the river gorge, in the vast season, thousands of warships emerge in the river water continuously, in the middle valley mouth water battle has made great contributions to the warship of the fighting ships in the lead, the first to board the building ship in the center, the white army of nearly 1,000 warships marched westward, and now the Jiangdong naval division has no opponent on this river, the mast on the warship is like a forest flag, it is simply undisguised.

After the defeat of the Chu State Water Division, the morale of the soldiers of the defense of the country was greatly boosted, but Yao You was not happy, and after seeing Bai Qi again, he expressed his worries: "General, before the army set out, our army only prepared three days of grain and grass, and the last general only checked the logistics surplus grain, and our army's grain and grass only had the next day's grain left." ”

There will be no food tomorrow, no wonder Yao You is worried, but Bai Qigu didn't think so, and immediately came to the map and pointed to Songyang City on the north bank of the river about 130 miles away: "This place is the place where the Chu army's naval division supplies in the middle distance, and the grain and grass are all operated from Peng Li to here, and there will be food when you capture this Songyang Lake." ”

Yao You put a row of foreheads: "I forgot this stubble, Songyang City is located on the bank of the river, and when our army did not lose the mouth of the Middle Valley, the Chu Army Water Division was used as a temporary water village here." ”

Bai Qi smiled slightly: "According to this itinerary, we will arrive in Songyang tomorrow, our army has just experienced a big battle, let the soldiers of the three armies eat and drink, and take Songyang City tomorrow, I will immediately raise troops to land and go north!" ”

Yao You nodded, and gave up his hand to "promise".
