Chapter 2061 Bombardment of Sanjiangkou

Where the three rivers converge, there are countless large and small ships on the south bank where the Yizhou army is stationed.

The ships were still approaching the shore one after another.

The Yizhou army did not seem to have any intention of hiding their purpose, and were carrying hay and dry wood to the boats, and some soldiers were carrying wooden barrels to dump oil on the hay.

On Zhang Yun's flagship, Fa Zheng was holding the side of the ship and looking at the opposite shore.

His face was very bad: "Zhuge Kongming still plans to use fire." ”

"With fire?" Zhang Yun, who was standing beside him, asked: "The gap between our warships is not small, what can he do if he attacks with fire?" ”

"The gap is not small, and it can't support them too much." Fa Zheng said to Zhang Yun: "General Zhang, immediately send a small boat and let the soldiers hold bows and arrows and shoot rockets at the boat on the opposite shore." ”

"Now?" Zhang Yun asked.

"Yes, now." Fa Zheng replied: "This matter should not be delayed for too long, the sooner it is handled, the better." ”

"It's better to arrange a small boat than to sail together." A smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Yun's mouth, and he said to Fa Zheng: "What Fa Gong is worried about is nothing more than the ignition of the ships on the other side and the collision with our army. ”

"Ships together?" Fa Zheng frowned: "If the general does this, he will send the soldiers to the sea of fire." ”

"If Fa Gong believes me, let me use the tactics of the navy in this battle." Zhang Yun said confidently: "If I can't smash all the ships on the other side, I am willing to bear all the responsibility." ”

Fa Zheng looked at Zhang Yun from head to toe, and asked suspiciously, "How does General Zhang plan to defeat the enemy army?" ”

"Use these." Zhang Yun walked to the wooden box on the deck and patted one of the boxes: "Use these." I have plenty of shells, am I still afraid of them catching fire? ”

"Cannonballs?" Having never seen a cannonball, Fa Zheng asked suspiciously: "This thing is just some iron balls, what use can it be?" ”

"When you use it, the Fagong will understand." Zhang Yun clenched his fists and said: "I also ask the Fa Gong to give an order to my warships to fire together and blast the enemy's coast!" ”

The Yizhou army raised ships on the opposite shore in an attempt to burn the north shore.

Fa Zheng also knew that he couldn't wait any longer, so he nodded and said, "Although I don't understand what General Zhang said, I can see that the general is quite confident. I'll allow the general to take command of the ships and break through the enemy's defenses! ”

"Order!" Zhang Yun responded and ordered the guards next to him: "Pass the order, and the warships will go together." Approaching the south bank, a salvo of shells! ”

The order was given, and the naval warships moved one after another.

On the south bank, Zhuge Liang looked at the naval warship opposite, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He said to Yang Yi beside him: "Look, the enemy can't hold their breath, let the warship come over." As soon as they are in chaos in the middle of the river, we will immediately push the fireboat out. As soon as the ships arrived, I didn't believe that the enemy army would not be burned to the ground. ”

"It's still the prime minister's far-reaching strategy." Yang Yi replied: "I have learned a lot from being able to follow the prime minister. ”

"Herald." Zhuge Liang ordered: "When the enemy army comes to the center of the river, immediately launch the fireboat." ”

Yang Yi received the order and ordered the guards next to him to give orders.

The two sides faced off for several days, and the war was finally about to begin.

The Wei warships advanced towards the center of the river, but they stopped before they reached the center of the river.

On the flagship, Zhang Yun asked the junior colonel on the side: "At this distance, can you hit the other side?" ”

"The river is not very wide, and this distance is enough to hit the other side." The Colonel replied.

"Order, aim at the muzzles of each ship, let Zhuge Liang taste the taste of cannonballs!" A wicked smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Yun's mouth, and he gave the order to prepare to open fire.

On the south shore, Zhuge Liang found that the Wei warships did not continue to move, and he was also very puzzled.

He frowned and muttered, "What does the enemy want to do?" How stopped. ”

Yang Yi, who was standing beside him, was also at a loss.

Just wondering what the Wei army was going to do, Zhuge Liang and Yang Yi first saw puffs of white smoke coming out of the Wei army's warship.

Immediately afterward, they heard a loud and deafening noise.

Before the first loud bang was over, there was another loud bang on the bank of the river.

With a loud noise, the sand and gravel on the shore were blown up in all directions.

Boats docked on the riverbank were also hit by shells, and the flowing river splashed into the sky.

The loud bangs were incessant.

A few shells even fell and exploded not far from Zhuge Liang and the others.

The Yizhou army on the shore had never seen such a battle, and it was actually blown up to the point of being stunned.

Some people stood there stunned, and they didn't know how to dodge the shells when they fell to them, and they were pushed into the air by the explosion.

On the north bank of the Sanjiang estuary, when the warship shells fired in unison, Fa Zheng opened his mouth slightly in surprise.

He looked at the other side of the explosion in a daze, and subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

"Fa Gong." Yang Xiu next to him was also surprised and said: "If we had known that there was such a thing, we would have broken through the river bank and climbed to the south bank." ”

"Who's to say it's not?" Looking at the other side with round eyes, Fa Zheng said: "If I had known that they had this, I wouldn't have to wait here for any wind direction, just let the navy drive over." ”

"It's not too late to know." Yang Xiu replied: "Fa Gong is crusading against Yizhou, it seems that the war is about to come to an end. ”

Fa Zheng nodded silently, seeing the explosion on the other side of the riverbank, he had more confidence in attacking Yizhou.

No matter how capable Zhuge Liang is, he can't compete with these new weapons.

At the same time, Fa Zheng is also rejoicing.

He was glad that he had already served Cao Shuo, otherwise if he encountered these on the battlefield, he might not be blown to pieces inexplicably.

On the flagship, the corners of Zhang Yun's mouth always had an indifferent smile.

Fa Zheng didn't want to agree to him at first to lead the navy forward.

When he ordered a salvo of shells, he glanced back.

Although Fa Zheng didn't look at the shore from the warship very clearly, he could guess that Fa Zheng must have been full of surprise at this time.

"General." Holding on to the side of the ship, looking at the south bank that was being bombarded, a shout came from Zhang Yun's ears.

He turned his head to look over and saw a junior colonel standing beside him.

"Say!" The cannon roared, and Zhang Yun also roared for the colonel to continue.

"How long will the bombardment last, and how many shells will be used?" The lieutenant asked.

"If you don't say anything, you'll have to use half of it." Zhang Yun said: "I want Zhuge Liang to know what kind of water army he can't provoke!" ”

The Wei warships were huge, and each ship carried a sufficient number of shells.

Half of them will be used, not to mention that there will be no more complete ships left in those ships gathered on the south shore, and even the dirt on the shore will be turned over completely.

The bombardment continued, and the south bank of the Sanjiangkou was filled with a thick white smoke.

The navy bombarded for a whole day.

It wasn't until the sun went down that the shelling stopped.

The boats of the Yizhou army gathered on the banks of the river were burning, and countless broken wooden planks floated on the surface of the river.

There was also a dead silence on the shore. 2k reading web
