392, the Jinfan Army arrives, and it attacks on both sides [3/3]
"Holy, what kind of bird boat is this! How can anyone retract into the belly of a ship after a blow? This is simply a turtle tactic! Cai Zhong, Cai and the two of them jumped to their feet in anger on the bow of the boat.
"I hit it closely! Kill them! While Cai Zhong and Cai He commanded the fighting ships, they also beckoned five or six building ships to rush forward, including the flagship on which the two of them were riding.
By this time, the wheels had rushed to the extreme distance of the fighting ship group, and thirty wheelboats turned over the deck together, and three hundred sailors waved their hands together, throwing out three hundred ignited fish oil incendiary bombs.
Just like the first time the Jinfan thief saw these oil bottles, Liu Biao's sailors raised their heads and watched the oil bottles fly onto their ships curiously, wondering in their hearts: "What is this?" β
Soon their questions were answered, and the first oil bottle smashed into the deck of a fighting ship, and then immediately burst into flames, and the fire exploded in all directions with the splash of fish oil, and a large part of the deck was immediately bathed in the baptism of fire.
Then the second, third, and fourth tanks followed...... The three hundred oil tanks each selected their own targets, and in an instant, more than a dozen fighting ships of Liu Biaojun's army were bombed, and the majestic fire reflected the red on the river.
"Extinguish the fire!" Some people poured buckets on the fire, but the fire could not extinguish the fire on the oil, but the oil flowed through the water, carrying the flames farther away.
Some people use cooked cowhide to crush the flames, some people use cotton cloth to cover them, and some people bring ballast stones in an attempt to use stones to crush the flames...... However, fish oil is flowing everywhere, flames are flowing everywhere, and it is so easy to extinguish fires. On the contrary, it got bigger and bigger, and the fire made the group of fighting ships crackle.
There were a few brave Liu Biaojun sailors who were too lazy to extinguish the fire, thinking: If you burn Lao Tzu's boat, Lao Tzu will rob your boat to use it.
With broadswords in hand, they jumped off the fighting ship and jumped onto the deck of the wheels, intending to rob the warship of the Gongsun army.
A sailor named Zhao Bo had just jumped on the wheel of Gongsun Guo, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in the soles of his feet, he looked down and saw that a bloody spear tip came out of his instep, blood flowed wildly, and the soles of his feet were pierced by a spear.
Zhao Bo screamed miserably, hugged the soles of his feet and fell down. At the moment when he fell forward, he saw with his own eyes that a shining spear tip was stabbing in the direction of his fall through several holes in the deck...... "Ah! Zhao Bo only came to scream, and was stabbed in the chest and abdomen by three spears from the bottom up, and the soul returned to the underworld to see the Lord of Yama.
Zhao Bo was by no means the most miserable Liu Biaojun sailor, and many sailors who jumped on the wheel suffered the same fate as Zhao Bo, or even more miserable, some people were even stabbed in dozens of bullet holes, and blood flowed into the belly of the ship along the spear hole, dripping on the bodies of the Gongsun Army sailors in the belly of the boat, which further stimulated their murderous spirit.
"How can this be true? It just doesn't make sense! Cai Zhong scolded: "This is not a water war at all, this is completely cheating people!" Order the small boats in front of me to assemble and use numerical superiority to deal with the enemy's fast-running, undivided clippers (eagle boats), the fighting ships will drag me a little later, and all the ships will retreat to the back of the building ships, and it is forbidden to jump into the gang to fight, and use the building ships as the vanguard to ram over. β
The huge building ship finally advanced to the edge of the battlefield, this kind of huge ship as high as ten zhang, like a water fortress, is not too afraid of being thrown directly into the bottles and cans, because after the last time Cai Zhong was overshadowed, he prepared a lot of sand, mud, and thick cowhide for fire extinguishing on the ship, and if fish oil incendiary bombs were thrown on the deck of the ship, Cai Zhong was sure that he would extinguish them in an instant.
Cai Zhong ordered loudly: "The total number of enemy troops is much smaller than ours, don't panic, use the size of the building ship to decide the winner, all the ships are delayed, concentrate on suppressing the enemy ships with bows and arrows, so that their sailors can't probe out and throw cans." β
Under Cai Zhong's order, Liu Biao's navy restored a little order and began to use Lou Chuan as an arrow, relying on Lou Chuan's huge body as a means of attack.
At this moment, dozens of strange boats suddenly rushed out of Gongsun Jun's fleet, this kind of small boat was divided into two parts, in fact, it was two small boats, there was no human figure on the front one, and the whole boat was tightly covered with canvas, and it was pushed away by a small boat behind. The oars of a small boat sticking out of the belly of a small boat behind it, rowing desperately.
This is a chain boat invented by Sun Yu, this kind of strange boat rowed fast, and collided straight towards Liu Biaojun's building boat.
Cai Zhong was suddenly happy, how big is your boat, it's too much to fit ten people, and you dare to hit my building boat? The building boat is ten zhang (thirty meters) high, and it can hold hundreds of people on it.
Crush it! This was the first thing that came to Cai Zhong's mind, so Cai Zhong decided to implement it.
With a soft "bump", a huge building boat hit a chain boat, but the funny thing is that the chain boat was not knocked over, but stuck tightly to the stomach of the building boat.
It turned out that the side of the small boat in front of the chain boat was full of barbs and spikes, and when the two boats collided, it was like hitting the nails with a hammer, so that all the nails were pierced into the wooden boat, so that the boat was nailed tightly to the boat.
At this moment, the rowing boat behind the chain boat suddenly turned around and ran, and actually separated from the front ship, it turned out that the two small boats of the chain boat were hung together with iron hooks, and the front boat stuck to the enemy ship, and the rear boat immediately removed the hook and began to retreat.
The sharp-eyed Liu Biaojun Navy immediately noticed that there was a small flame faintly bubbling on the boat hanging on the belly of the boat, and it seemed that something was burning...... Just as they were frightened and about to send someone to drag the boat away, the fire on the boat suddenly jumped up and burned wildly.
It turned out that this small boat was filled with fish oil incendiary bombs, and a lot of flammable materials were stuffed, and this time the fire broke out, and immediately clung to the belly of the building ship and burned like crazy.
A huge building ship actually burned half of its hull in the fire, and then capsized on the river, and the sailors jumped to escape. Several other buildings that were set on fire were also desperately trying to extinguish the fire, where did they still have the heart to move forward.
"It's unreasonable, all kinds of messy things are used, I'm angry!" Cai Zhong jumped to his feet and scolded.
In this wave, Liu Biaojun lost at least three building ships, and three building ships were seriously injured. But after all, Liu Biao's army totaled 20,000, although it lost some, it was still far more than the 1,500 sailors of the Gongsun army, although the offensive was temporarily frustrated, but even if more than 1,000 ships were put there for the Gongsun army to burn, they would not be burned for a while and a half, so after simply extinguishing the fire and reorganizing the team, they still pressed towards the Gongsun army unrelentingly.
Cai Zhong and Cai He's eyes flashed with anger: "We must flatten Gongsun Jun on the dock and burn all their ships, including these strange ships, not a single one can be left." β
Gongsun Jun also seemed to cooperate with their anger, shrank all the ships back, and slowly retreated into the small inlets by the dock, and did not come out to set fires.
"Rush in! Rush into the docks! Liu Biaojun was mad by the fire attack just now, and a large number of small boats and big ships rushed forward.
At the same time that their boats were blocked at the exit of the wharf and squeezed inward, the upper reaches of the Han River suddenly fluttered with brocade sails, and Gan Ning Gan Xingba led 1,500 brocade sail thieves and 150 new warships to rush down the river.
Gan Ning had already waited impatiently, as the first battle after joining the Gongsun Army, this was the key to her fame and establishment of her position in the Gongsun Army, not to mention that she had obtained a large number of new warships, and she was trying to have a good time with these strange ships.
But Sun Yu didn't let her join the battle circle at the beginning, but let her wait upstream. It turned out that Sun Yu was afraid that the transfer of the Jinfan thief and all his soldiers at the beginning would cause a vigilant effect on Liu Biaojun, and if Liu Biaojun did not come out of the water gate of Xiangyang City, and then asked for reinforcements from the main fleet on the Yangtze River, it would bring great trouble to Gongsun Jun.
Therefore, Sun Yu only invested 1,500 ill-trained sailors at the beginning, and after luring Liu Biaojun to the dock on his side, he dispatched 1,500 powerful sailors to take Liu Biaojun by surprise with new ships, and after taking some small advantage, he immediately retracted into the wharf inlet, which caused Liu Biaojun to rush in and fight.
When Liu Biaojun hurriedly rushed forward, Gan Ning's strange soldiers came downstream, attacked Liu Biaojun's back, and then attacked from both sides, making all Liu Biaojun's sailors dumplings on the river.
So far, the first half of the strategy has worked completely, and the problem is the second half...... In the case of hard fighting, can 1,500 Gongsun Army sailors, 1,500 Jinfan Army, a total of 3,000 sailors win against Liu Biaojun's remaining more than 10,000 sailors...... This is a hard-fought battle of strength, and there is no way to take advantage of it.
The two big golden characters of "Jinfan" jumped up from Gan Ning's head, and the fierce fighting spirit blew out against the water, causing a slight wave on the river, and one hundred and fifty warships of the Jinfan Army were all hung with "Jinfan", bathed in the assistance of Ganning's military skills.
More than 100 warships carrying golden light suddenly appeared, which frightened Cai Zhong and Cai He to quickly order the fleet to turn around and divide part to meet the enemy...... At the same time, Sun Yu also shouted: "Let's hang up the brocade sail here!" β
The more than 100 Gongsun Army warships in the dock also hurriedly hung a Xichuan brocade on their ships, so the golden light emitted by Gan Ning also shrouded the 1,500 soldiers here in the middle in an instant.
Sun Yu was holding his bow and shooting at Wei Yan, when a golden light suddenly lit up on the small boat next to him, and the trafficker Lori stood on the bow of the boat and laughed: "Sister in red, let's meet again, I must catch you and sell you for money today, hahaha!" β
Yu Ban's ordinary but reassuring face also appeared behind the trafficker Lori, she didn't make any earth-shattering words, but quietly took the longbow from her back and held it in her hand.
The blue word "Bow General" instantly jumped above her head.
Although Sun Yu didn't hear her, he knew what she was talking about.
"Xunzhen, I'm here to fight side by side with you!"
