Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Yuan Shao's army is getting closer and closer, from the conversation with Yuan Shao, he can only hear the voice, and now he can almost see the hideous look on the face of the enemy opposite, Cao Cao said that it is not nervous, it is false, after all, the disparity in strength is huge, he only has 30,000 sailors in his hands, and Yuan Shao on the opposite side has 100,000!
Although Yuan Shao's water army belongs to the second water army, but Cao Cao's own water army is not elite, Yuan Shao's water army is full of fishermen in Jizhou, Qingzhou, less than half of these horses have been on the battlefield, and Cao Cao himself is not much better, he is pulling the 6th army to fill the number, although these 30,000 horses have been on the battlefield, but there are a lot of landlubbers in the past few months! You can't blame Cao Cao, he Cao Mengde has always fought the battle of the 6th Army, from the attack on Xuzhou to the attack on Yuzhou, from the fight against Tao Qian to the fight against Liu Ranran, that battle was not 6 battles! When did he Cao Cao fight a water war, before Yuan Shao in Hebei and Cao Cao were so good that they were about to wear the same pants, how could they guard against their own people, the two banks of the Yellow River are connected, Cao Jun under the banner of Cao Cao, you can directly cross the river and go, you don't need Guan Die's notification, and even Yuan Shaojun may provide grain and grass, the alliance of the two people has resisted the alliance of Gongsun Zhan Tao Qian and Yuan Shu, and now Gongsun Zhan Tao Qian and Yuan Shu are hanging, Xuzhou and Youzhou are also divided by Lao Cao and Yuan Shao, one mountain does not allow two tigers, If Yuan Shao wants to win the Central Plains, he must go to Yanzhou and Xuzhou, and these two places are in Cao Cao's hands.
Cao Mengde has the heart of a king, how can he give up the territory in his hands, so let's fight!
"Fengxiao, if Cao is unfortunately defeated and dies, please return to Xu Du and take Cao's wife and siblings to take refuge!" Cao Cao originally wanted Guo Jia to take his family to join a prince. But after thinking about it, Cao Cao suddenly smiled bitterly, the emperor's family is ruthless, his old Cao has worked hard for most of his life, and there is really no one in the world who can rely on him, and all the princes have been offended by Cao Cao.
A few neighbors in the vicinity. Liu Bei, this person can't be trusted! He treated him like a brother, but in the end he was betrayed, and Cao Cao drove Liu Bei out of Xuzhou, and Zhang Xiu from Wancheng, hehe! Zhang Xiu killed his eldest son. Lao Cao wants to kill Zhang Xiu, and Lao Cao also sleeps with Zhang Xiu's aunt and the two families really have no possibility to unravel, and then there is Lu Bujun! Hehe, Cao Cao's Xu Du still has a weapon called Fang Tian's halberd in his own Cao Mansion, and the red rabbit horse was rewarded to Guan Yu by Lao Cao, and Lao Cao has been fighting with Lu Bu for many years.
Jingzhou Liu Biao? Liu Biao is afraid that he is good, but if his family falls into the hands of Liu Biao, Liu Biao will definitely not be merciful. Jiangdong Sun Ce? Cao Cao and him are not familiar with him, his father Sun Jian and Cao Cao all know each other, but he doesn't know how many years his father has been dead, where can he still have a relationship with Jiangdong Sun Ce, if it is really possible, it will be him! Cao Cao didn't know why he remembered the young man in golden armor who was not good-looking.
"Why does the lord have to say such unlucky words, my Cao army will win this battle!" Guo Jia's eyes were very firm, and indeed today was almost equivalent to the last battle of their Cao army. If he loses, then Cao Cao's army will really have to leave the stage of this troubled world, Cao Cao, the lord, is on this boat, and if he loses, he will be finished, and if he wins, he can go around for some time. Because it may be the final decisive battle, so he Guo Jia also boarded the warship, if he fails, then he will accompany the lord Cao Cao to sink to the bottom of this mother river!
"Hehe, yes, my Cao army will win!" Guo Jia's determined look also infected Cao Cao, and Cao Cao also cheered up. Who is he Cao Cao, that is a man who never gives up, Cao Cao has experienced a lot of life and death, the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he was besieged by most of the Yellow Turban Army. That's because Dong Zhuo's command was improper, and the Han army was also on the verge of changing generals, which led to the defeat of zhì, Cao Cao might have sunk in the chaos if he hadn't brought two brothers, and then the pursuit of Dong Zhuo was almost killed by Dong Zhuo's ambush, if it wasn't for Cao Chun to let the war horse maybe Cao Cao also died, and there were many people who were on the verge of death in the later battles, such as the war in Wancheng, and the riot of Lu Bu in Xiapi, but such a near-death time and again, didn't he Cao Cao survive, not that Cao Cao wouldn't die, It's that he Cao Cao can't die, and the strong ** of survival makes Cao Cao always wield his strength.
"Fengxiao, I said if, if you are really hungry at that time, go to the person who goes to Shouchun!" This was the last thing Cao Cao said to Guo Jia before the war, because the next thing was a desperate battle.
"That man!" Guo Jia also knew who that person was, but he didn't know why the lord always wanted to mention that person, Guo Jia didn't have time to think about it, Yuan Shao's army was already approaching Cao Jun.
"Capture Cao Cao alive and seal the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!" Yuan Shao's army came out with a military order, the Marquis of Wanhu, this is really a good thing, eat ten thousand households, and reward the marquis, this is the foundation of the prince Wandai, Yuan Shao really made the capital.
Such a stimulus Yuan Shao's troops burst out with amazing combat effectiveness, and the warships under his crotch actually waved one by one towards Cao Jun.
Lao Cao is now in the hearts of those Yuan Shao's soldiers, that is, he is promoted to official wealth, and if he wins Cao Cao, he can really be crowned a wife and a son, and since then he has left the civilian era, and he has struggled for one or two generations, as long as he is not defeated, he is definitely a warrior clan.
"Wanhu Hou? Then let's see if you have the life to take it! Cao Cao is very cold, he can show his weak mentality to Guo Jia, and the fragility under the strong pressure, but in the face of those soldiers, those soldiers of the Cao army, Cao Cao will always show a kind of perseverance, he wants to tell these people who fight for his Cao family, his Cao army is invincible, victory will definitely belong to the Cao army, as the lord of the lord naturally can not panic, the role of the lord is the military heart of the army.
A thousand steps, nine hundred steps, eight hundred, seven hundred, five hundred, four hundred, three hundred, the frustration above Yuan Shao's flagship finally breathed a sigh of relief, because Cao Cao's navy really couldn't escape, three hundred steps, on top of this all-out pursuit, Cao's army couldn't escape at all, Cao Cao's warships were all fighting horizontally, and at this time, even if there was any ambush, he didn't want to join the battle again, it can be said that the result of the battle has come out. As long as you rush up, the bow and arrow strike, and then the broadside battle, board those warships, the end of Cao's army is doomed.
The idea of frustration is good. Indeed, as long as those warships are boarded at this time, then Cao Cao is really finished, and the 30,000 naval army under the impact of the 100,000 army will not last long at all, but it has to be close!
"Cao Jun has given up!" It was already three hundred paces, but Cao Cao's army was still motionless, and the impact of the warship was not small. The first wave of the shock of the fleet, which is able to gain the upper hand, can determine even the outcome of a normal battle.
Two hundred and eighty steps "winding!" Cao Cao's order was distributed, and the flags above the flagships were fought, and all the battleships moved, and from each of these battleships carried out huge objects. There were three of them on each ship.
"What is that?!" Fu Zhu and Yuan Shao were both watching Cao Jun's movements, that huge thing?
"Bed crossbow!" Yuan Shao and Fu Zhu glanced at each other, they both recognized this thing, and Youzhou and Zhou were all outside the Sai. How could Yuan Shao not know this thing, there is this thing in many cities outside the Saiwai, this thing was made clear in the time of Qin Zhao, and it was mainly used in the border area, and the impact brought by a bed crossbow was very great for the foreign race, and the foreign race was originally short of salt and iron, and their iron products had to be made of horses. Use fur herbs to exchange with the Han people, most of the people on the body are leather armor, and some have no armor directly, so that the penetration of the bed crossbow to them is really big enough to a certain extent, generally a bed crossbow of the giant arrow shot out can string more than a dozen like a rock sugar gourd, so this big object has become a sharp weapon of the side plug, but that is more than a hundred years ago, and the current side of the area is more popular is to use cavalry to fight those foreign races, Huo Quai, Wei Qing let the prestige of the Han Dynasty deter China and foreign countries. The same idea he brought to the Han is to deal with these nomads, then the only way to use cavalry to fight, although the Han people are not as good as the foreigners who are born on horseback, but my Han people have a command, they swung out the heavy armored cavalry from the light cavalry, and Sinan. This thing can find its way in some desert grasslands outside the Saiwai, and since Wei Qinghuo went to the sick, the entire Han Dynasty has a martial spirit, so the generals of the Han Dynasty do not want to be like Wei Qinghuo and the two generals who are sick are like the wolf Juxu, and the result of the guide is that there are always good generals and elite cavalry troops in the border area, such as the wolf cavalry in Bingzhou, such as the white horse Congyi, the Xiliang iron cavalry, these heavy armored cavalry in the troubled times are honed from the battles with foreign tribes again and again.
Therefore, the role of the bed crossbow is much smaller, and the deterrent effect on the side plug is greater than the practicality, and there are all in Youzhou, but the last one was also forty years ago, and the metal places on it were rusty, and the wood began to rot, and only the general shelves were placed there!
And now that this thing has appeared on Cao Cao's ship, Yuan Shao has to feel strange, what does this Cao Cao want to do? Use a bed crossbow against his water army? Cao Cao's head is flooded! The bed crossbow is huge, and it is very heavy, occupying the displacement of the warship, and the bed crossbow is very laborious to pull the bowstring, it takes dozens of strong men to pull it apart, and those bed crossbows outside the plug can only shoot a hundred steps, and the power will hurt more than a dozen soldiers It takes so much effort to attack an attack, and it is not as good as a bow and arrow! Yuan Shao sneered at will.
Cao Cao immediately told Yuan Shao that his brain was not funny, two hundred and fifty steps, Cao Cao's eyes froze, and an awe-inspiring murderous aura rose up, "Release!" "Cao Cao himself is a military general, and he has fought a lot of battles, and even personally goes into battle to kill the enemy and has martial arts, no kung fu at hand, how dare he assassinate Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo is also a military general, and there are many times he has personally conquered, but now he has reached the middle-aged level and has not had a good mental energy when he was young, so he gradually withdrew from the battle in front of the battle, but this does not affect Cao Cao's killing spirit.
The ten warships in the first row immediately cut off the bowstrings on the bed crossbows, and one by one the sound of huge arrows buzzing through the air shot out.
Ten warships were thirty bed crossbows, and one shot was thirty giant arrows, and these giant arrows all showed hideous faces and rushed towards Yuan Shao's warship opposite. Although the bed crossbow in Cao Cao's hand is only a simple version, or even an incomplete version, because the person who really designed him is already in Shouchun, and Guo Jia only got a drawing, which was imitated by a craftsman with great difficulty, so whether it is in terms of range or penetrating power, it is more than one grade lower than the bed crossbow in Lu Bu's army, and even the Jiangdong Navy and Jingzhou Navy are not as good as those in the hands of the Jiangdong Navy and Jingzhou Navy Army. If Liu Mang is now using the third-generation bed crossbow, then Jingzhou Liu Biao and Jiangdong Sun Ce are in the hands of the second generation, and the two sides may also have their own experts to modify and have reached the level of the second and a half generations, and now Cao Cao's hands can only be regarded as a generation and a half, which can be loaded with two giant arrows, the range is only two hundred and fifty steps, and the penetration ability is not as high as those bed crossbows, at best, it is much stronger than those old antiques outside the border plug. It can already be regarded as a generation and a half, and it is naturally stronger than his predecessors.
The first wave of arrow rain has already told Yuan Shao Yuan a truth, that is, even if it is an old antique, even if it has faded out of the historical stage for a hundred years, it can still make you Yuan Shao eat a good pot.
The first wave of arrow rain thirty giant arrows, although they were not able to take away a warship with three arrows directly like in the Yangtze River Basin, but the power was also beyond Cao Cao's expectations, thirty giant arrows directly plunged headlong into the three buildings that Yuan Shao's army rushed the fastest, and an average of ten arrows were shot on each warship, not to mention Yuan Shao's unmodified building ships, even if Jiangdong has a sealed cabin warship, and Jingzhou Zhuge Liang's kind of warship that has removed all the superstructures, the thickened warship can't withstand it, They all had to sink to the bottom of the river to feed Wang Ba, and this kind of ordinary building boat was even more of a problem, the turbulent pale yellow Yellow River water was directly poured into the three building boats, and the entire hull was broken by giant arrows, and the three warships sank into the Yellow River before they went into battle to kill the enemy.
