Chapter 492: A Husband
When Zhu Ji was watching the battle, Wei Ba was also looking at the battleship that went out alone. He saw Zhu Ji's battle flag, but he didn't see Zhou Yin's, but he didn't expect Zhou Yin to be on this ship. Hearing Zhou Yin's invitation, he couldn't help laughing.
"These two goods are really big, they haven't died yet, it seems that Senior Brother Zhao's spear technique hasn't been practiced yet."
"On the battlefield, the more afraid of death, the faster they will die, and a madman like this who doesn't want to die is not easy to die." Guan Feng said lightly, glancing at Zhou Yin in the distance: "Although this person is not as family-like as his father, he is not a coward, his father was also the first to attack the war back then. β
Wei Ba laughed, and couldn't help but feel a little strange. How can a young man like Zhou Yin, who can use soldiers, not have a reputation in the Three Kingdoms at all? His brother Zhou Xun died early, what about him, did he also die early? But then again, the descendants of those famous generals in the Three Kingdoms basically have no reputation, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao are just written by Lao Luo, in fact, according to their current situation, it is estimated that there will be no big deal. History is written by a family that has the right to speak, and the two Jin Dynasty after the Three Kingdoms until the early Sui and Tang dynasties are the world of the children of the family, and ordinary warriors have little chance to leave a name in history.
"Zhou Yin, you're not dead yet." Wei Ba waved his arms as if he was greeting an old friend, and shouted affectionately.
"Lao Tzu can't die, you have the ability, come and kill Lao Tzu!" Zhou Yin also shouted at the top of his voice.
"If you have the ability, you come up, and Lao Tzu will reward you with a knife." Wei Ba Daxiao said.
"Shameless." Zhou Yin spat and scolded disdainfully: "Shrinking turtle." You know to hide far away. β
Zhu Ji couldn't cry or laugh, only people like you would invite such a fight, Wei Ba has such a good location, he will fight with you alone? If he agrees, he's in the water.
"Zhong Ying, don't be rash, let's take a look at Wei Ba's formation and think of a way to attack. If we don't prepare, our casualties will be great. β
"What's there, isn't it just a life?" Zhou Yin said very easily. His eyes kept scanning the entire position. He thought for a moment: "Since his positions are all made of bamboo, can we attack with fire?" β
Zhu Ji thought about it, nodded and said, "You can try." β
Zhou Jun, who had not spoken on the side, suddenly interjected: "I heard that Wei Ba invented a turtle boat during the Battle of Xiangyang. There is armor on it. Not afraid of bows and crossbows. If there is a ship like that. We may have fewer casualties. β
When Zhou Yin heard this, he patted his head, hahadaxiao: "That's right." How did I forget this. haha, it must be interesting to use Wei Ba's method to deal with Wei Ba. β
Zhu Ji frowned and nodded again and again, but he then said disappointedly: "But we don't have such a ship, and it's too late to build it temporarily." β
"It's easy, I'll arrange it." Zhou Yin waved his hand and said with a big grin: "We don't want to build a real big ship, as long as we follow his ideas and make a protective canopy, in fact, it should be about the same as Meng Chong, but it's just bigger." β
Zhou Yin said that it would be done, and immediately asked Pan Jun for instructions, asking him to send people to withdraw from the canyon, go to the mountains on both sides of the bank to cut bamboo, weave it into a cover, and set it up on the boat to block arrows. Pan Jun thought this method was good, so he made arrangements overnight, and had people cut down a lot of bamboo, weave it, and tie it to the top of the warship. By the next morning, dozens of warships were covered with thick bamboo canopies, and even the branches and leaves had not been removed, and they looked green and beautiful.
Zhou Yin set up such a warship and took the lead in a tentative attack.
Wei Ba saw these ships from afar, and couldn't help but laugh and scold: "This shameless one copied my idea." When I catch him, I'll have to ask him for royalties. β
Guan Feng glanced at him speechlessly, and said in his heart At this time, you are still in the mood to laugh. Although it occupies a favorable terrain, the situation is not easy to be optimistic. In front is Pan Jun, Lu Dai more than 10,000 troops who want to seize the road and flee, behind is Lu Xun, who wants to save people, there are 20,000 people on both sides, and the leader is the most famous general of Wu State, there are only 3,000 people on the mountain, once there is a mistake, all the previous military exploits will be in vain.
"Get ready for battle." Guan Feng reminded: "In the first battle, you must fight morale." β
Wei Ba nodded: "Okay, Ziquan, you come to the first blow first." β
"Whoa." Wang Shuang responded, picked up his four-stone strong bow, mounted an arrow tied to the ignition object, ignited it on the torch, and then aimed at Zhou Yin's warship, letting go of the strings.
With a whirring ball of fire, the feather arrow shot towards Zhou Yin's warship.
Although it was daytime, it was dark in the canyon, and the fire could be seen brightly, Zhou Yin saw it and immediately shouted: "Prepare to extinguish the fire!" β
"Whoa!" Several soldiers answered in succession, reached out to pick up the scooping water, leaned out of the boat, scooped up the water and splashed it on the bamboo canopy overhead. They are all familiar with water warfare, they are familiar with this process, and they know better that bamboo is flammable, and they have been prepared before, and now they are familiar with it.
With a "pounce", the feather arrow, which had flown more than 300 steps, shot on the round and tough bamboo pole, slipped a little, and fell crookedly on the bamboo canopy. Before the fire could ignite the bamboo, it was doused with a ladle of water.
"And!" Seeing that the response was effective, Zhou Yin couldn't help but daxiao, and made a gesture of disdain at Wei Ba in the distance. Although it was so far away, Wei Ba definitely couldn't see it, but he was still very proud.
Of course, the price of pride is also very large. In order to prevent fire, the soldiers poured a lot of water, and this water dripped from the bamboo canopy, soaking half of his body. It doesn't take long for him to get wet all over. It's the cold winter moon, the north wind is howling, and it's not a comfortable thing to drench in soup.
Zhou Yin didn't care too much, ordered several warships to set off together, and everyone rowed hard and rushed towards the position lying above the water.
Seeing Zhou Yin's strength, Zhu Ji ordered the drumming to cheer. The drums of war reverberated back and forth in the canyon, as if thousands of troops were fighting. Zhou Yin's heart was surging, standing at the bow of the boat with a shield in his hand, waving his knife and shouting: "Accelerate, accelerate!" β
The oarsmen used their strength to push the ship to extreme speed, and the ship sped away to the distant position by the current and the wind.
The arrow failed to work, but Wei Ba was not frustrated at all, but comforted Wang Shuang. Seeing that Zhou Yin's warship entered the firing range, he waved his hand and motioned for the crossbowmen to start blocking.
Crossbowmen on the cliffs on either side began to shoot, and fiery arrows sped away towards the ships in the water. Zhou Yin and others charged while setting up a boat and pouring water on the bamboo cover. Bamboo water is difficult to soak, and after a while the water that is sprinkled on it will run clean, and in order to keep it moist, they have to keep watering. In this way, before they could break half the distance, almost all the people on the warship were soaked, and when the damp and cold cold wind blew, all of them were so cold that their teeth trembled, and the whole ship was full of gurgling sounds, like a flock of chickens pecking rice.
Zhou Yin didn't care about these, he held a shield on his head, and kept dialing the arrows he shot. Arrows hit the shield and clanged.
"Accelerate, accelerate!" Zhou Yin shouted loudly.
The oarsmen shouted in unison and accelerated again.
The rain of arrows on both sides of the river became more and more urgent, shooting on the bamboo canopy, clattering, shooting into the water, swishing sound.
Three hundred steps!
Two hundred steps!
One hundred steps!
Fifty steps!
Seeing that the enemy's position was getting closer and the enemy's face was getting clearer and clearer, Zhou Yin was overjoyed. The way he came up was so good that he was about to engage the enemy, and the arrows he shot had nothing to do with him.
Haha, Wei Ba, you can't think of it, I'll use your methods to deal with you.
Zhou Yin was daxiao in his heart, his mouth also grinned, he clenched his battle knife, prepared to jump, and at the same time ordered loudly: "Crossbowman, shoot!" β
The crossbowmen were already ready, and in response to the sound of the bowstring, dozens of sharp arrows shot out from under the bamboo canopy and flew towards the enemy not far away.
"Raise the shield-" Jin Dongliu shouted, and the barbarians who were waiting for the battle raised their shields, squatted down, and hid in front of the prepared haode bamboo raft. The galloping feathered arrows shot at the bamboo rafts, shot at the shields, and fluttered.
"Crossbowman, prepareβ" Jin Dongliu raised the war knife in his hand, his eyes stared at the Wu army warship that was getting closer and closer, and suddenly shouted: "Shoot!" β
There was a muffled "buzz", and the crossbowmen standing on the bamboo rafts shot a dense rain of arrows.
Zhou Yin sneered and raised his shield to block his face. The opposing crossbowmen were standing on bamboo rafts stretched across the water, and if they were rammed with a warship, the rafts would be scattered, and the crossbowmen would be mercilessly slaughtered.
Wait, I'm going to want you to look good. Zhou Yin gritted his teeth and scolded.
At this moment, the warship, which was almost flying close to the water, suddenly hit something, and with a loud "boom", the warship trembled violently, and then turned sideways. Zhou Yin was shocked, and before he had time to think about it, the person had already flown up from the boat and fell into the water with a thud.
The warship behind saw Zhou Yin falling into the water and knew that there were obstacles in the water, and their faces turned pale with fright. Burying obstacles in the water is a common means in water warfare, but they have measured the depth of the water before, and the deepest place is more than 20 zhang, and it is impossible to install obstacles in such deep water, and no obstacle is so big, even if you put a tree down, you can't get your head out, and you can't get a firm foothold in the water below 20 zhang.
No one expected that there would be obstacles in the water in this situation, so they rowed the warships as fast as they could, and when they realized that the situation was not as they expected, it was too late to slow down. Zhou Yin had just flown out when another warship collided with him, and it hit it with a "bang". The warship almost flew out of the water, leaning into the water with a bang, and the Wu soldiers on the warship were caught off guard and fell into their hands in surprise.
Almost at the same time, the barbarians' arrows hit, and the Wu army couldn't spare their hands to block the arrows, and they were hit by the arrows one after another. Hot blood gushed out, staining the cold river red. (To be continued......)
PS: Asking for a monthly pass, the one behind is catching up again, and zuihou is also in danger.
