With the merger of Pang Tong and Huang Zhong, the deterrent effect brought by the 28,000 army almost attracted the attention of the world.

It also attracted the attention of the strongest force in Jiangdong, the 20,000 troops of Yuzhang led by Zhou Yu.

Jiangdong's naval army is very strong, and the world knows it. Hardly any of the princes were able to easily break through the Jiangdong river defenses and penetrate deep into the hinterland of Jiangdong.

Cao Ying can't do it, and neither can Liu Biao. In the opinion of many people, Liu Feng's army can also not.

In this war, the engagement of the army is the most striking.

And just when the high-level of the Jiangdong forces set their sights on Yuzhang. Liu Feng's army set off quietly.

Xiakou Ferry.

Fifty steamers were assembled in the middle of the river, and Gan Ning planned to lead his army to break through the defense of the Jiangdong Navy, which was the largest in the world, and drive the army to the hinterland of Jiangdong, and burn the war into the major cities north and south of the Yangtze River.

Fifty ships, with an average of one hundred and twenty men, half of whom were archers. The greatest means of water warfare is the bow and arrow.

But these archers are not pure archers, they take up arms and can still fight.

Among the one hundred and twenty soldiers, one hundred of them held the full version of the Chu sword, which made their combat effectiveness skyrocket.

The rest have a hundred conscripted foot forces. Each ship has fifty foot positions, and a hundred people can be divided into two shifts to ensure the speed of the ship.

On the deck of one of the fifty ships, flying the flag of the word "Gan", stood the murderous Gan Ning.

He was dressed in golden armor, with a Chu knife hanging from his waist, a large bow in his hand, and an arrow pot on his back. Gan Ning, who was heavily armed, was murderous, and his eyes looked at Jiang Dong with incomparable determination.

In that year, when Zhou Yu came to attack, the Jiangdong Navy suppressed the Jiangxia Navy with absolute strength, forcing Gan Ning to retreat in Xiakou City, and watched the Jiangdong Navy show off its might in the waters of Jingzhou and run rampant.

Gan Ning is not a person with a mild surname and an aversion to fighting. On the contrary, Gan Ning's surname is more irritable and a brave and ruthless person.

made a shrunken turtle, Gan Ning had long hated the Jiangdong water army.

Now his army had fast warships, steamers, capable of breaking through the river defenses. With full lethality, you can assault the Chu knife in the Jiangdong camp.

It can be said that all the conditions are met.

Wash away the shame, just this time.

The essence in his eyes flashed, and Gan Ning shouted: "Set off and sack Jiangdong." ”

"Whoa."

It is not necessary to give orders with any horn, and the howl of the soldiers in unison is the best luck to start the war.

Ganning's navy is very mixed, there are water thieves, Jinfan thieves, and the original Jiangxia army.

Water thieves, Jinfan thieves are so brave and ruthless. And it turned out that Jiangxia's army also had an unspeakable hatred for Jiangdong. Last time, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai led the naval army to rampant Jingchu.

Gan Ning is aggrieved, and they are also aggrieved.

There was an unusual excitement in the howl.

At first, only one hundred and twenty soldiers on one ship of Ganning were howling, but in the end, it became 6,000 soldiers who roared in unison.

The war has not started, but the momentum of the naval army has been high.

With this roar, the fifty foot forces in the boat roared in unison and stepped on the pedal vigorously. Under the force of the feet, the outer paddle wheels of the fifty steamers slowly moved, and after only a simple acceleration, the speed immediately increased dramatically.

Flying to Koto.

"It's like an arrow." Feeling the speed of the paddle steamer again, Gan Ning couldn't help but let out a sigh.

The self-confidence in my heart is even greater, with such a warship, it is too easy to break through the river defense.

Fifty steamers, departing from Xiakou. To Jiujiang, it is the water area controlled by Liu Feng. This section of the road was relatively easy, and after it took a day to reach the vicinity of Jiujiang, Gan Ning became much more cautious, but cautious was not the speed of decline, but the speed of increase.

Speed is the advantage, and only by relying on speed can we break through the first line of defense set by Sun Quan at the mouth of the lake.

It's getting late. But in the sky, the moon is high and the visibility is high.

Inside the boat, fifty feet were rising, and the arms holding the front handles were bursting up, and their feet were turning at a rapid frequency.

Heavy wheezing, the thick smell of sweat, permeated the ship. The speed of the ship depends entirely on the strength of the feet, and if the feet are strong, the speed of the ship has no limit.

And now these fifty feet have reached the limit of what they can reach.

Under the full force of these fifty feet, fifty steamers really sailed to Jiangdong. Soon, under the illumination of the lights, the very transparent Jiangdong Hukou ferry appeared ahead.

Hukou Ferry was originally the line of defense that Jiang Qin was responsible for, and it belonged to the first line of defense against Jiangxia. There were originally 5,000 defenders.

But Jiang Qin was sent to sea by Sun Quan to find Liu Feng's remaining fifty ships. So now the number is only four thousand.

The general in charge for the time being is called Hong Cheng, who is in his thirties, with a white face, a mustache, and a powerful physique.

Jiang Qin was Sun Ce's old general, who started during Sun Ce's period. And Hong Cheng also followed Jiang Qin from that time, and has been Jiang Qin's deputy until now.

Since Jiang Qin led his troops to leave, Hong Chengdu has been very concerned about the situation in Jiangxia.

Especially in terms of Yuzhang, Pang Tong, after Huang Zhong had already approached the city, Hong Cheng was even more careful. has always been diligent, afraid that Liu Feng's army will break through the river defense and rush into the hinterland of Jiangdong.

The water army in Koto is very strong, and it does not refer to a separate water army. It's Jiangdong's foot soldiers, and with a little training, you can become a water army.

And it will take at least a few years for the northerners to adapt to water warfare. This is the unique advantage of Jiangdong.

But now Zhou Yu led 20,000 men to confront Pang Tong under the city of Yuzhang. Now the naval army in Jiangdong is only in the normal range, and there are 5,000 people in the first line of defense.

In addition, there are ferries such as Sanshan, Hengjiang, Liyang, Qu'a, etc., or thousands of people stationed there, or more than 1,000 people. That adds up to only one or two hundred thousand.

And Jiangxia Ganning has 6,000 people, if he breaks through the first line of defense. The next line of defense is dangerous.

Therefore, Hong Cheng was cautious and had to be cautious.

During the day, the river defense is inspected every two hours, and the river defense is also inspected three times at night. Only after the daily inspection is completed, Hong Cheng will sleep peacefully.

In the General's Mansion next to the Taishou Mansion, Hong Cheng sat in the hall, looking a little tired.

He had just returned from a ferry tour.

Guarding such a large ferry alone, conscientious. It's tough. While exhaling a long breath, Hong Cheng couldn't help but admire Jiang Qin a little.

Although he was doing the same thing, the man never showed a tired look.

Unbeknownst to Mr. Hong, the man he admired had become a prisoner and was now under house arrest in Taiwan.

But the next moment, Hong Cheng jumped up and hurried to the water village. Because some soldiers in charge of keeping watch found that dozens of warships appeared in the distance on the river.

And the watchman made a quick decision and blew the trumpet. The navy is different from the army, because of the special surname of the water war, there will be a part of the soldiers to keep vigil. It has the effect of temporarily intercepting enemy troops.

With Hong Cheng's order, the gate of the water village was immediately opened.

The five warships in the water village immediately sailed out of the water village.

According to the usual situation, when the soldiers found the enemy, it only took a little time to kill their own warships out of the water village.

It will definitely be able to intercept the opponent, and even if it is not good, it can be followed and killed.

But when the five warships were killed, the soldiers on the ships could only see the tail of Gan Ning's fifty warships, no, they could only see some black spots, which quickly disappeared from their sight.

When Hong Cheng arrived, and at the first moment, he tangled up the elite soldiers in the ferry and killed the water village, he saw five of his own warships parked in the river.

At the bow of the boat, Hong Cheng said angrily: "What about people? ”

"Far away." The man in charge of the five ships was a military marquis, and he replied dumbfoundedly.

"Why don't you chase?" Hong Cheng's voice rose by three points, and his eyes were almost on fire.

In Hong Cheng's shrill screams three times and twice, the military marquis finally came back to his senses and realized what had happened.

They actually watched dozens of warships whizz by, and after them, there was a large blank space. No defense, no water army.

The enemy army can wreak havoc.

How many people can sit on dozens of warships? Five thousand? Ten thousand? It's all possible.

Thinking that he might let 10,000 people go, the military marquis immediately turned pale. Hurriedly explained: "General, misunderstanding, General, it's really not a small fault, but their speed is too fast." Almost in the blink of an eye, it whistled by. The little one has been on the Yangtze River for more than ten years, and he has never seen a warship so fast. Almost twice as much as us, not twice as much. ”

The military marquis is eager to shirk his responsibility, and what he said is basically the truth. But it's too unbelievable.

The new ships may have some advantages in speed, but how can they be more than twice as fast?

"Qubbling, someone has tied this guy up for me. The rest followed me. Hong Cheng decided in his heart that this guy was trying to shirk responsibility, so he trembled with anger and yelled.

Immediately lead the warship in pursuit.

Hong Cheng was holding on to a fluke, hoping to follow as soon as the enemy warship stopped, and he could stop the enemy from continuing to advance eastward.

so as not to cause big damage.

But what made Hong Cheng's hands and feet cold was that they pursued for nearly an hour. The sergeant in charge of shaking the pulp had almost changed, and there was still no trace of the enemy warship.

Is it really double the speed, twice the speed?

If it had been placed in the past, Hong Cheng would not have believed that there were new warships in the world that were superior to Jiangdong warships in terms of function.

But now that the facts are in front of Hong Cheng, Hong Cheng can't believe it.

An unknown number of troops, about 5,000 to 10,000 men, broke through the Hukou ferry and marched into the Jiangdong Mansion.

Oh my God, what the hell is going on.

The warship went down the water, and it was already fast. If the enemy is one or two times faster than yours, it will be faster. Maybe not even a war horse.

In other words, when their news reached Wu County, Sun Quan issued martial law orders for each ferry from Wu County, which was absolutely based on the speed of Gan Ning.

Under the dark sky, a bright moon hangs high.

On the choppy Yangtze River, dozens of warships were moored in a daze.

Hong Cheng stood at the bow of the boat, his face pale, his expression sluggish, and his whole body cold.

In spring and summer, it is cold.

I don't know how far away Hong Cheng is, Gan Ning is in a mood again.

At this moment, the speed of fifty ships is no longer as wild as just now, and is slowly decreasing.

It's good to break through the mouth of the lake, and there is no need to sail at the limit speed anymore. The strength of the feet in the face can't keep up, and it affects the performance at the critical moment.

At the bow of the boat, Gan Ning faced the river breeze and looked ahead with enthusiastic eyes.

Breaking through, relying on excellent speed, it is really simple to break through the river defense of Jiangdong.

Hong Cheng understands the layout of the ferry in Jiangdong and the general military strength. Gan Ning also knew very well that he had spent an unknown amount of time and energy to send spies to various parts of Jiangdong to listen to the news.

Thinking that Jiangdong was like a lamb in front of him, Gan Ning's heart was hot.

This time, Liu Feng's order was to burn, and first attack the city, ferry, and water village. Then burn down the granary.

How many cities are there on both sides of the Yangtze River? How many ferry crossings are there? Uncountable. And what he had to do was to burn them all, and Sun Quan was so distressed that his heart was broken.

How does Gan Ning feel now? That's cool, big cool.

Burn the Yangtze River, kill all the way and burn all the way. What is Retaliation? This is revenge. Let you think that you are the first in the world in the navy, Jiang Qin, Zhou Taiqi out, control the waters of Jingchu.

Today, let Sun Quan taste this taste.

"Get your rockets ready and cheer up. As long as you see the other party's ferry, water village, etc., they will all set fire. Excited, Gan Ning yelled.

"No."

The soldiers also responded with great excitement, touching the tiger's whiskers, burning and looting on the ground of Jiangdong, the overlord of the water. What a thrilling thing to do.

……………….

Jiangfeng is a small ferry port and a sentry post. It belongs to Jing County. It is about a hundred miles away from the mouth of the lake.

There are only 100 soldiers stationed there, and it is a very small ferry.

It is said that there are almost no warships that often come and go, and most of them are civilian ships.

Because Sun Quan never considered that Liu Feng's water army could directly break through the Hukou defense line, he was able to directly break through the Hukou defense line, so for some water villages and sentry posts along the way. He didn't even give the order to be on guard.

Therefore, the soldiers and soldiers of this ferry, including Du Bo, did not know that Jiangxia Liu Feng had started a war with Sun Quan. The two sides are tense.

The soldiers almost lived a peaceful life with the law of "coming out and doing and coming in and resting".

But tonight, they suffered the house of destruction.

The warship that came out of nowhere, when the watchmen first spotted it, fired a large number of rockets at them.

You must know that this ferry port is not a half-water village and half-city structure, but a simple ferry, and the place where the soldiers live is just some camps.

After these rounds of rockets, the ferry port almost became a sea of fire.

"Ahhh Countless soldiers screamed and crawled out of the camp, and some of the soldiers on fire even howled and jumped into the river.

It's miserable.

When the fire is extinguished, leaving behind a place of ruins. The soldiers who escaped could only stare blankly at the Yangtze River, and the warships that attacked them had disappeared.

Dong'a, Guanghui ..........

The small and medium-sized ferries placed in front of Gan Ning, as long as Gan Ning can see, are all a sea of fire.
