And Liu Bei was still in a daze in the shadows, and said in his mouth: "This is like a castle on the water, this is much more than the warships in Jingzhou, no wonder Zhou Yu can cross the Yangtze River, the level of shipbuilding can..."

When Liu Bei was in a daze, there was a sentence above his head, "Is Liu Yuanjun also going into battle?" It was Zhou Yu, who saw Qiao Ren talking to the deck downstairs, and also came to take a look, and saw that Liu Bei was robbed of his soul by the huge warship.

Liu Bei looked up and found that the person who spoke had become Zhou Yu, and his condescending shouting was even more condescending. Liu Bei had to raise his head and say: "The governor is fighting with Cao Jun today, how can Bei stay out of the matter." ”

Zhou Yu wanted to say more, but Qiao Ren really couldn't stand it, so he preemptively said, "Liu Yuanjun should come up first." Seeing this, Zhou Yu also pursed his lips, no longer spoke, but concentrated on commanding the army.

Half an hour later, the sun finally rose, the river fog dissipated, and as far as the eye could see, more than 700 warships of the Jiangdong Army had been deployed, and at a glance, almost half of the river was covered.

Qiao Ren looked into the distance again, only to see the end of the Tianshui line in the southwest, Cao's fleet had also appeared, and it occupied the upstream trend, so down the river, its momentum was faster, and it didn't take long for the entire fleet to enter the Jiangdong Navy's field of vision.

The formation of Cao's navy was stretched even wider, and more than 1,500 warships crossed the entire river.

Qiao Ren couldn't help frowning slightly, and said in his heart: "The warships of the Cao army are almost twice as large as our army, and if you go down the river like this, you will at least have the upper hand in terms of momentum, and it seems that it is not easy to deal with." ”

But when Cao Jun got closer, Qiao Ren laughed instead. The ships of the Jingzhou Navy are too small, most of them are ships, and only thirty percent of them are building ships, but they are smaller than those of Wu Jun. Although only 10% of Jiangdong is a building ship, this naval army does not need to be on the road, and an aircraft carrier or a large-tonnage battleship is enough to withstand dozens of expulsions. Moreover, the ship and the walker cannot even be counted as an expulsion.

When they were nearly two or three miles away, I saw Zhou Yu next to him suddenly change the order flag. Then, I saw that the formation of the Jiangdong Army quickly changed into a conical charging formation, with five five-story building ships as the front drive, and seventy or eighty fighting ships on both wings, and later with Zhou Yu's flagship and more than 50 large and small warships. All the ships raised their sails, and the oars reached their maximum, and they all rushed towards Cao Jun.

"Ziyan can see why I am like this." Zhou Yu didn't pay attention to the water army on the other side at all, and still had the leisure to ask Qiao Ren.

"Although Ren doesn't know about water warfare, he knows that the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, and there are not a few generals in Jiangdong who are good at broadside battles," Qiao Ren replied.

Zhou Yu smiled: "Ziyan is really smart! ”

Just as the two spoke, the distance between the two parties approached again. Just as the five-story building-level giant ship in the front row was about to approach, the dozens of bows, sterns and walkers that were originally guarding the flanks quickly accelerated, rushed out from the left and right, and went straight to the Cao Jun fighting ship. For the first two people, one person has a feather on his head, a bell hanging on his waist, he is naked and wears fish scale armor, and the iron chain that has been connected to the double halberd is Jinfan Gan Xingba; And the other person had already taken off his full body armor, only wearing obscene pants, revealing the Jiulong tattoo on his body, and holding a Pu knife in his hand, it was Jiujiang Zhoutai. These two can be said to be the generals of the entire Han Dynasty, the best at broadside battles. The two of them used to be the most famous water thieves and the biggest water thieves in the Yangtze River.

At this moment, the five-story giant ship began to exert its might, and the crossbowmen were condescending, and the arrows rained down on the enemy ship, killing and injuring the people on the enemy's fighting ship, and completely suppressing the enemy's fighting ship's arrows to return fire, so that it could not form the slightest block against the charging ship.

Sure enough, the troops led by Gan Ning and Zhou Tai crashed into the enemy's fleet without any pressure. At the moment of impact, the huge impact force made the hull of the ship vibrate, just when the enemy was panicking, Gan Ning shouted, inserted a halberd into the hull of the ship, and then killed those Cao Jun who were caught off guard along the iron chain, and then the Wu army on the ship abandoned the oars and changed the knife, and followed Gan Ning to rush up and kill the enemy ship.

And Gan Ning, who was standing on the deck and constantly waving iron chains, shouted to the boat next door: "Zhou Youping is my first this time, and you owe me five altars of flower carving." ”

On the next boat, it was Zhou Tai, who was on the boat in one step, and after seeing him kill a Cao Jun with a knife, he shouted back: "It's not because of your weapon, otherwise you think you will be faster than me." Besides, Huadiao is Qiao Hujun's private brew, with the relationship between you and the Hujun, how much is there to have, but I have to get a few jars in the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, you!! ”

Gan Ning laughed when he heard this, and said, "Youping, you can't afford to lose!?" ”

"Humph!" Zhou Tai's anger was suddenly vented on Cao Jun's body, and he cut off a soldier at the waist with a knife, and said: "Five altars are five altars!" Gan Xingba, let's kill more people than anyone else. How about the three altars? "It's not, Zhou Tai doesn't want to win back, but his inventory is only eight altars, and he really doesn't have to lose.

Gan Ning glanced at it with a smile, and said with the double halberd in his hand: "Come, who is afraid of whom!" "Gan Ning's weapon is a Qimen weapon, after the double halberd is connected to the iron chain, the killing range on the ship is very wide, the ship is narrow and swept by the double halberd, even if you don't die, you have to fall into the river, which is much cheaper than Zhou Tai's Pu knife.

And Zhang Yun, who was on the flagship of the Chinese army, saw this, and his heart seemed to be angry. As soon as the flag changed, a large number of Jingzhou Navy troops also rushed out, ready to fight to the death with Sun Jun. But Zhang Yun obviously forgot that the opponent was Zhou Yu, and saw that the warp of the Jingzhou Navy had just come up, and it was shot together with the bow and crossbow on the giant ship, and there were countless casualties in an instant.

At the same time, there was no need for Zhou Yu to command, and generals such as Ling Cao and Dong Xi also killed each other with their own ships. Compared with the Jiangdong Naval Army, the Jingzhou Army obviously lacks a sharp spirit. However, it is no wonder that the Jingzhou Navy is unstable in the army, and it has been suppressed by Eastern Wu in the past, but now it is congenitally weak when it encounters the enemy.

"Won!" Zhou Yu, who was commanding above the flagship, said a word without coming up, which made Qiao Ren puzzled.

Isn't this still fighting? How to win. Qiao Ren looked at Jiang Shang, who was fighting hotly, and asked, "Metropolitan Governor, this is a victory!" ”

Zhou Yu still said with a confident smile: "Zhang Yun's forward has been broken through, less than half an hour. Our army can enter the Chinese army, Cao Cao is still above the flagship, how dare Zhang Yun take risks. Look, in less than half a moment, Zhang Yun will definitely retire from the army. ”

Sure enough, in response to what Zhou Yu said, as soon as the words fell, it was vaguely visible that the order flag on the flagship of the Jingzhou Navy suddenly changed, and then the warring Jingzhou Navy retreated alternately towards Wulin on the north bank. Zhou Yu also immediately ordered that the armies should not pursue and let the Jingzhou army leave.

And on Zhou Yu's flagship, Zhuge Liang, who was watching the battle, also said to Liu Bei: "Zhou Yu has won." ”

Not only was it a victory, but it was also a big victory, this battle repelled Zhang Yun's navy, and also captured nearly 100 large and small ships. The Jiangdong Navy dragged the captured warships, sang the ballads of Wu Di, and laughed and returned to the Chibi Water Village.

In the cabin, Qiao Ren, who had sent Liu Bei and the others away, said to Zhou Yu: "Brother, Ren has an unformed idea, which may be able to enhance the combat power of my Jiangdong naval army. ”

"Oh" Zhou Yu was surprised, Gain Qiaoren didn't know about water warfare, but he could put forward an opinion after watching it once, how could this not surprise Zhou Yu. "Tell me about it!"

"I see that our military buildings and ships are five stories high, but they are all made of ordinary bows and crossbows. I wondered if I could put the bed crossbow on the ship. Qiao Ren said.

When Zhou Yu heard this, he wondered: "Bed crossbow, what kind of crossbow is it?" ”

'Uh' Qiao Ren didn't expect that there was no bed crossbow at the end of the Han Dynasty, thinking that it might have been invented in the Song Dynasty, so he said: "This crossbow was found when I was looking through the ancient books of the pre-Qin Dynasty, the arrow of this bed crossbow is different, the arrow body is extremely long, the arrow is a round iron ball, there is no blade, it is a parabola after shooting, because the arrow falls from the air almost vertically because of the heavy arrow, relying on its impact force to kill people." ”

Zhou Yu could imagine what terrible things would happen when the huge crossbow bolts smashed into the wooden ships.
