Chapter 299: Gan Ning's decision

At the end of the ship, there are more than ten small ships tied, which are specially used to prepare for the escape of the soldiers on the ship.

Su Fei estimated the speed and distance of the ship, and felt that it was almost time, so he withdrew from the ship with the soldiers, and ordered them to throw torches on the deck covered with fire oil.

Rumble!!!

The flammable oil formed a huge explosion at the moment it was ignited by the torch, and the Jiangdong soldiers on the rear stern all subconsciously turned sideways and protected their heads with their hands.

After the explosion, the fire spread rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, the raging flames engulfed the entire building ship.

The speed of the ship, which had lost its pulling force, gradually slowed down by cutting the rope that connected the ship to the building with a blade.

Su Fei stood on top of a shipwreck, staring at the fireship that was getting farther and farther away from him, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

This was his desperate blow, if he couldn't even break through the other party's iron rope across the river, all he could do was to ask Huang Zu in the rear for help.

At the top of the arrow tower, Dong Xian saw the building boat roaring like a huge and hideous fire beast, and suddenly his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly ordered the soldiers in the rear: "Hold the stake for me, no one is allowed to let go!" ”

At this moment, this burning building ship almost attracted the attention of everyone on the battlefield.

"It's coming, it's coming, it's going to bump into ......" Many people clenched their fists, and they were so nervous that they couldn't breathe.

Rumble!!!

Bang bang -

The ship, which was stopped by the iron cable and burned on the periphery, was easily knocked over and crushed to the side in front of the huge building ship, and the flames were as brilliant as fireworks.

Faced with the terrible collision of the building ship. The hot and red chains at the front were directly cut into two pieces by the fire, and the chains at the back were also constantly dragged forward by this brutal force. The originally straight 'one' shape was forced into a 'V' shape.

The wooden stakes nailed to the bottom of the water tilted forward one by one, at high and low angles, but none of them could stop the chains from moving forward.

In the water village, the wooden stakes used to fix the ends of the head and tail were uprooted one after another, and the weight of the soldiers did not play any role in this at all, and the wooden stakes were instantly taken off. The soldiers fell into a mess on the ground, some of them were clenched so tightly that they even flew up with the stakes.

Fortunately, every layer of defense is broken through by the ship. The impact force will be weakened by a point, and when it breaks through more than a dozen lines of defense in one go, and is only more than twenty steps away from the gate of the water village, it finally stops completely.

A surging heat wave is coming. Looking at the building ship that had stopped not far from the periphery and was overwhelmed by the skyrocketing fire. Dong Xi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Almost!

It's really just a little bit off!

It's just that this distance doesn't seem to be very safe.

Thirty or forty meters apart, Dong Xi's face was still hot from the scorching air in the air, but you can imagine how outrageous the temperature near the building ship was, maybe it won't be long before the iron chains blocking the front of the building ship will be directly burned by the fire.

Due to the fire, the fighting between the two sides was forced into a brief hiatus.

In the village, Gan Ning's expression was a little unpleasant. The development of events can be said to have greatly surprised him.

"No, you can't be so passive anymore!" Gan Ning looked at Liu Ye with a solemn gaze. "After all, the defense of the water village is not as good as the city wall, if the other party comes out like this again, maybe this fire will really burn into our camp!"

Liu Ye nodded thoughtfully and asked, "What is the governor going to do?" ”

Gan Ning said: "I decided to take the initiative to go out of the village to fight Huang Zu!" ”

Liu Ye frowned: "There are too many uncontrollable water wars, Huang Zu has led the Jiangxia Navy Division for many years, and the Governor rashly fights with it, and he may not be able to bargain!" ”

Gan Ning was slightly displeased: "What? Is there a better way for Fei Ziyang? ”

Liu Ye thought for a while and said: "Why don't we set up an ambush in the water village, invite you into the urn, first introduce Huang Zu's army into the water village, and then encircle and annihilate it!" ”

Gan Ning shook his head and said: "This method is not appropriate, if the Huangzu army is allowed in, the defensive measures and large and small ships in the water village are estimated to be burned clean by the other party's fire, and at that time, we can only retreat to Exian County and become a lone army!" ”

Liu Ye defended: "The lone army is not terrible, don't forget that there are still 800 elite Iron Guard Battalions in our army, if the battlefield is moved from the water to the land, how can the Jingzhou Army be our opponent?" ”

Gan Ning questioned: "What if we really defeat the Jingzhou army on land? Without ships, we can only watch the other party flee by boat, and in a short period of time, we will not be able to continue to expand the results in Jiangxia! ”

"But the Governor ......"

"Okay Ziyang, I have made up my mind, don't persuade again!" Gan Ning waved his hand and interrupted Liu Ye in a cold tone, "In the final analysis, you still underestimate the combat power of my Jinfan Sailor, don't forget what I and Shaolin relied on to start at the beginning, just Jingzhou Sailor, I really didn't pay attention to it!" ”

After that, he sent someone to call Zhou Tai and Sun Ben, and said to the two: "I want to personally lead the army out of the village and Huang Zu to fight on the river, I don't know what you two think?" ”

Zhou Tai laughed when he heard this: "Dudu, in fact, it should have been like this a long time ago, these days have really suffocated my old Zhou!" ”

Sun Ben also seemed to be more inclined to take the initiative, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he replied: "But according to the orders of the governor!" ”

Gan Ning was very satisfied with the answer of the two: "In this case, you two will attack with me to meet Huang Zu, but Youping, your injuries are ......"

"Don't worry, that little injury has already healed!" Zhou Tai said and deliberately shook his previously injured shoulder to prove that he was not lying.

"That's good!" Gan Ning nodded, then turned his head to look at Liu Ye with a worried face, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Ziyang, don't worry too much, you can look at it, this time I Jinfan, I will definitely be able to win a big victory!" ”

Seeing that Gan Ning had made up his mind, Liu Ye quickly cleaned up his mood and responded with a smile: "In this way, Ye is here to wait for the good news of the governor!" ”

Although Liu Ye doesn't agree with Gan Ning's decision because it is too risky, no matter what, Gan Ning has always been an expert in water warfare, and he is just a layman, since Gan Ning has this confidence, so what's the harm in letting him go out and try? After all, it is always undesirable to overstep one's bounds.

Liu Ye is well versed in the way of dealing with the world, and he knows very well that if he insists on opposing it at this time, he is questioning Gan Ning's combat ability, and the relationship between the two will completely drop to the freezing point, which is obviously not what he wants to see.

What's more, if Gan Ning can really return with victory this time, it will definitely become a major turning point in the strategic sense of taking Jiangxia. (To be continued.) )
