Chapter 250: The Rooster Crows
Wang Quan also stood on the high place of his Flying Tiger warship, looking at the water to the west, they had been hiding here for a long time, and had been waiting for the arrival of Li Quan's naval fleet, after the morning passed, it really made Wang Quan a little anxious, but the news should not be wrong, Li Quan's naval destination should be Baoying Lake, from where Liu Qingfu led the army to break through from Baoying County, so Wang Quan still held his patience and continued to wait for the big fish to take the bait. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It really paid off, that is, when Wang Quan was thinking about this, a group of dotted boats appeared on the lake, starting with more than a dozen yachts (a kind of ancient light warship) Pushed by the oars of the sailors, they rowed through the calm water and sailed into the rooster crowing.
Followed by all kinds of warships with the flags of Li Quanjun's army, in a loose formation towards the rooster chirping, in fact, Jiang Tong was not completely unguarded, he led the fleet into the rooster before the convoy into the rooster chirping, he first sent more than a dozen yachts to enter the rooster to explore the way.
However, after these small boats entered the rooster crow, they did not notice anything unusual here, so they sent the news of safety back to the fleet under the flag.
Jiang Tong was relieved and boldly led the fleet into the rooster crowing without any preparation.
General Wang, they're in, let's do it! One of Wang Quan's subordinates saw that Li Quanshui's army had entered their ambush circle, so he immediately asked Wang Quan for his life.
Wang Quan shook his head and said: Wait! Don't worry, our main target is those cars and boats in Li Quanshui's division, kill them, even if the boat runs a few times, it doesn't matter, they are still a little vigilant, rush out now, they will turn around and escape! You give the order first, and then it's not too late to do it when the enemy ships get close to the reeds! Let the clippers rush up first, entangle the enemy's vehicles and ships, and entangle their cart leaves with the prepared fishing nets, and not let them run away! Let's rush up and kill the enemy boats!
Jiang Tong made a reclining chair and lay on the ship, calculating the speed of the ship in his heart, according to their current speed, tomorrow morning should arrive at the lake west of Baoying County, I am afraid that there will be a big battle, he is quite excited, he wants to see what is different about the southern army this time, and can actually surround Liu Qingfu more than 10,000 people in Baoying County.
At this time, his subordinates suddenly came over and said to Jiang Tong: Brother Jiang, it seems that something is wrong here today! It shouldn't be so quiet!
Jiang Tong straightened his head and stood up, raised his eyes to look around, and was reminded by his subordinates, Jiang Tong also found the problem, a place like this is a good place for fishing, but in the whole rooster song, they have not seen a small fishing boat since they came in, and what is even more strange is that there are often many wild ducks and other water birds in the reeds, and now they don't even see the shadow of a water bird, which is a bit weird!
After Jiang Tong figured it out, he looked at the terrain of the rooster's crow, and suddenly had a sudden break in his heart, and said urgently: It's not good! There is an ambush here! Hurry up and drive out of the swinger!
It's a pity that he found out a little late, just as he waved the flag on his handsome boat and gave the order to speed away from this place, a large area of reeds not far from them swayed, and in an instant, dozens of small warships rushed out of the reeds, including yachts with more than a dozen people, as well as walking boats with twenty or thirty people, and even centipede boats with forty or fifty people.
The common denominator of these boats was that they were fast and nimble in the narrow waterways, and as soon as they sailed out of the reeds, the sound of cannons sounded around the roosters, followed by the rumbling of war drums and the sound of trumpets dispatching ships to attack.
Jiang Tong and his subordinates were immediately in chaos at this time, especially Jiang Tong, who was still full of confidence, and suddenly found that they had actually penetrated into a huge encirclement of the Song army's naval division.
Don't get entangled with these boats, speed up and get out of here, they can't stop us, as long as we get to the wide water, it's our world! Sons, hurry up and step on it! The others told me to fire arrows quickly, and don't let them get near our big ship!" Jiang Tong saw that the big thing was not good, and immediately shouted loudly.
When the paddlers on their ships heard about it, they all knew that it was bad, so they began to step on the wings under their feet, and the water wheels on all types of boats immediately accelerated, striking the surface of the water, pushing the boats to speed up one after another, trying to get out of this cramped water.
But their action was still too late, the soldiers on the ship did not have much preparation at all, many people's bows and crossbows had not had time to hang the strings, and suddenly encountered the enemy's situation, each of them was a little panicked, although some people began to release arrows to intercept the Song army boats approaching their big ships, but for a time they could not organize an effective defense, these Song army boats rushed into the fleet of the same line of the river like arrows from the string.
The Song army did not attack Li Quanjun, they used shields to protect the figure of the people on the boat, and when the boat passed by Li Quanjun's big cart and boat, suddenly the Song army on the small boat threw a ball of fishing nets into the water, and then quickly rowed away from Li Quanjun's big boat.
These vehicles and boats are Jiangtong's most proud warships, and they are also the essence of Li Quan's water army, and they are his reliance on the water surface of Jianghuai, but here it has become a tiger falling in Pingyang, the narrow and cramped waterway makes them inconvenient to turn, squeezed together, and a collision may occur if they are not careful, and their forward momentum all rely on the water-repellent pulp on both sides of the ship, when the Song army threw a large number of fishing nets into the waterway, these wheel slurry that was being stepped on frantically immediately hung the fishing nets floating on the water surface on the wheel pulp, Then they spun and firmly put the whole net on top of the wheel pulp, and even one net entangled two or three wheel paddles at once, so that the cars and boats immediately lost power and became dead fish floating on the water.
Why stop the boat? Why don't you step on Lao Tzu? Waiting for death here? Jiang Tong stumbled on the deck of the ship and almost fell on the deck, so he immediately scolded.
Qiyu Jiangdu was unified, and the Song army deceitful, throwing many fishing nets in the waterway, and entangled our paddle leaves! Now our ship can't move! One of his subordinates ran over in a panic and replied to Jiang Tong.
Jiang Tong felt that his head was struck by lightning, and he was dizzy, he knew this time that they had met an opponent today, and the opponent was still a very ruthless and cunning person, and when they passed through here, they came to such a hand, no matter how powerful the car and ship were, once they couldn't move, they could only be meat on a chopping board, waiting for someone to slaughter, this move was really damaging, first put them into an ambush circle, and then suddenly attack in such a cramped place, trapping their main warship, this time it was a big trouble!
What are you waiting for? Why don't you let someone go into the water and cut the fishing nets! Wait for you to die, hurry up and get into the water! Jiang Tong quickly reacted, jumping frantically and scolding.
So some of the entangled chariots and boats jumped into the water with short knives in their mouths, swam to the sides of the ship, and began to cut the fishing nets wrapped around the wheel like crazy.
However, these fishing nets are not easy to clean up after they are wrapped around the wheel slurry like a mess, and no matter how hard these water ghosts try, they cannot get rid of these fishing nets in a moment.
As a result, more than 30 warships were entangled in the narrow waterway, unable to move again.
As soon as they found the Song army in ambush, they scattered in a hurry and met the Song army's warships on the water.
When these small boats faced the big ships of the Song army alone, they felt a bit like they were using their arms as a car, and the Song army had already been prepared since the beginning of the fight, as soon as the small boats entangled Li Quanjun's big boats, they immediately reflexively supported their big ships, and cooperated with the big ships to start strangling these Li Quanjun's small boats.
The big ships of the Song army first sailed into a slightly wider water, and then unfolded their formation, like a big net, and swept towards these small boats of Li Quanjun, and the yachts, centipede boats, and boats on both wings spread out one after another, and immediately pocketed these small warships of Li Quanjun's army.
Originally, small boats to deal with large ships had to rely on numerical superiority, and besieging large ships could be effective, but today's situation is that the number of small boats of Li Quan's army is far from enough to deal with almost the same number of large ships of the Song army as them, and the result is obvious, these Li Quanjun, who have lost their unified command, are fighting separately and are like a pot of porridge on the lake, and they cannot organize an effective attack at all, let alone defend.
Wang Quan stood majestically at the bow of the ship, constantly waving the command flag, mobilizing the ships of the Song army to and fro repeatedly in Li Quanjun's ship array, especially the Flying Tiger warship he sat on, it was even more majestic on the water, no one could meet its front, Li Quanjun's small ships should be a little careless, and if they were hit by the Flying Tiger warship, they would immediately be hit and fall apart on the spot, even if they did not fall apart, they would be immediately crushed into the water by the huge Flying Tiger Warship, and those Li Quanjun on the boat fell into the water like dumplings.
At this time, the warships of the Song army were like arrows, and they condescendingly launched at these small boats of Li Quanjun, and the Li Quanjun on these small boats were hit by arrows and fell into the water, and the blood soon stained a huge piece of water red, and the bodies of Li Quanjun's soldiers were floating everywhere on the water.
Some of Li Quanjun's troops saw that the big thing was not good, and they could not care about protecting the big ships trapped in the waterways, and the soldiers and generals on these boats turned around one after another, rowed like their lives, and fled for their lives towards the open water in the distance.
