PS, corrected later........................................................................ Seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, the building ships of the Han army suddenly turned their rudder to the left together, and the fleet that was originally moving in a straight line suddenly crossed the river at this moment.

Yuan Jian was suddenly confused, such a naval formation, but he had never seen or heard of it before, this is a god's way of playing? The building ship is horizontal, and it will completely lose the ability to advance, could it be that the Han people discovered the intention of the Wu army and wanted to intercept the interspersed actions of the Wu army?

But this is unlikely, after all, even if the building ship is horizontal, it will not block the passage interspersed by the Wu army's warships, and the Wu army can easily pass between the two ships of the Han army.

Therefore, although Yuan Jian was deeply surprised by the change of formation of the Han army, he did not change his plan, still maintained the order just now, and quickly rushed towards the group of ships and ships.

At this moment, countless bamboo-like things suddenly shot out from the building ship, both fast and accurate, and many Mengchong warships were shot, and the front ends of these bamboos were equipped with sharp arrows like spear heads, which could be deeply nailed into the side or deck of Mengchong's warship.

Yuan Jian's face was confused, it is very common to use bows and arrows or crossbow arrows in water battles, but it is really the first time to see such a thick bamboo crossbow arrow like the Han army, except that the frame is a little scary, it seems that there is no use, and I don't know what the Han army and the Han army are preparing to do with this kind of crossbow arrows.

But before Yuan Jian could figure out the true purpose of these crossbow arrows, the crossbow arrows that hit the side and deck of the ship exploded violently, whether it was the side or the deck, a big hole was torn out in an instant, and the river poured in turbulently, and the entire warship was sinking.

The crossbow arrows that exploded on the deck blew up the Wu soldiers on the warship to the point that people were turned on their backs, and many people were thrown into the river under the shock wave of the explosion.

Yuan Jian had heard of the gunpowder power of the Han army, when Lu Kang entered Shu to fight, he had encountered Liu Yin's troops using gunpowder weapons, and Lu Kang was disgraced at that time, this matter was recorded, and the personnel within the Wu army were relatively clear.

But hearing is false, seeing is believing, this time Yuan Jian saw with his own eyes - the gunpowder weapons used by the Han army, and only then did he know how terrible they were. Although a Mengchong warship is not too long, it is more than ten zhang long, both strong and heavy, and ordinary ordinary weapons cannot hurt it in the slightest.

But I didn't expect that the gunpowder weapons of the Han army were so terrifying, and such a large Mengchong warship could be easily destroyed. And the accuracy of these gunpowder crossbows is also very terrible, basically every ten crossbow arrows fired, there are about five can shoot the Mengchong warship, even if there are more Mengchong warships of the Wu army, it can't withstand the Han army's attack method, except for the first ship commanded by Yuan Jian and the few other warships that were lucky not to be shot, the Wu warships in the first row were hit hard, and the seven or eight out of ten were lost.

Yuan Jian saw that the general situation was not good, and urgently ordered the Mengchong ship group to quickly retreat in order to escape from the battlefield. Yuan Jian also saw that the range of these gunpowder crossbows of the Han army was limited, and as long as they could be withdrawn from a safe distance, the Han army would naturally be beyond the reach of the whip.

But even if the Wu army's Mengchong battleship is flexible, it will take time to turn around at this moment, but the Han army's gunpowder crossbow is constantly firing out, constantly destroying the Wu army's warship.

The whole river, everywhere is the Wu army destroyed boats, half-burning floating on the river, many warships even directly sink to the bottom of the river, in the river, struggling to swim, it is the Wu army sailors, fortunately, most of these people are familiar with the nature of the water, falling into the river is not too much of a problem, most of them can desperately swim back to the shore or other boats.

Yuan Jian was not so lucky, a crossbow arrow landed right at his feet, and before he could react, the gunpowder crossbow arrow had already exploded.

The loud bang didn't kill him directly, but it also blew off one of his arms, blurring flesh and blood, and it hurt his heart.

What's worse is that the ship was blown out of a large hole in the veneer by the gunpowder crossbow, and the water poured in in large quantities, and the ship was already in a catastrophe and began to sink. Soon the Mengchong battleship sank to the bottom.

Yuan Jian's water nature is good, but he only has one leg left, no matter what, he can't survive in the river, he struggles desperately, but no one cares, and soon Yuan Jian is swallowed by the river.

Because Yuan Jian led the Meng Chong ship group to rush very fast, he soon entered the range of the Han army within a hundred paces, and once he entered the Wu ships within the range, it was difficult to escape.

The Han army's building ship had quickly adjusted its direction and pursued the fleeing Wu army, and the Han army's Mengchong formation joined the water battle at this moment and beat the water dogs, so the Eastern Wu naval army suffered heavy losses in this water battle, and the entire Mengchong fleet was almost completely annihilated.

Cen An, who was in the rear formation, had a bad wind, leading the remnants of the fleet to flee in a hurry, as for the goal of coming to aid Yong'an this time, it seems that it cannot be achieved. Cen An escaped with his life, and as for Yong'an's defenders, they could only ask for more blessings.

Wang Jun did not chase and fight, and saw that Cen An led the remnants of the Wu army sailors to flee into the Xiajiang River, and Wang Jun ordered the Han army sailors to stop the pursuit and turn around to clean up the mess.

This battle is the Han army's gunpowder crossbow is powerful, easily, it destroyed the Jiangdong naval division known as invincible in the world, it seems that this gunpowder crossbow is very powerful, can fundamentally reverse the situation, this will become a new chapter in the history of water warfare.

This naval operation completely cut off the back road of the Yongan Wu army. In the past, the Han army attacked Yong'an by land, and it was impossible to besiege Yong'an to death, and the Yong'an defenders could continuously get supplies and grain and grass from the river, but after the Yong'an water battle, the Dongwu naval army no longer dared to easily enter the Xiajiang River, and the defenders of Yong'an City were completely in a desperate situation.

Although it is said that the Wu army still has a lot of grain and grass in Yong'an City, no matter how much grain and grass is used up, the Yongan Wu army, which has lost its logistical support, fell into a deep panic.

Sun Teng was desperate, and he had no choice but to abandon the city and flee, but after leaving the city, he was intercepted and killed by the Han army.

After thirteen years of loss, Yong'an finally returned to the hands of the Jihan Dynasty.
