Chapter 174: Losing both

Yes, Gan Ning at this moment is a bit like Deng Shichang's heroic rescue.

Since it is death, then it is a vigorous death.

Faced with this order, all the Eastern Wu soldiers were stunned.

"General!" After reacting, a group of Eastern Wu soldiers wept anxiously.

Gan Ning yelled: "What are you afraid of, my life is fate, it is a horse leather shroud, and I died on the battlefield." There are no bad breeds in my Eastern Wu soldiers who are afraid of death, and those who are not afraid of death are all rushing with this general to avenge their brothers! ”

As soon as the words fell, Gan Ning lifted the broadsword and boarded the bow of the ship.

He was the first to jump on the Huaguo warship and kill him upside down.

At this moment, it was understood that Gan Ning was going to die, and all the Eastern Wu soldiers were shaken.

And most of the soldiers behind Gan Ning were the pro-soldiers who followed him from the beginning.

This moment.

A group of Eastern Wu soldiers shouted to the sky: "Long live Wu Kingdom!" ”

It must be said that now a national consciousness has been formed.

Many people of Eastern Wu have already regarded themselves as Wu people. Similarly, Liu Bei's so-called Han Dynasty also claimed to be orthodox.

As for Lu Bu's Huaguo, he regarded himself as a Chinese.

The Three Kingdoms were formally formed.

Then, this war is no longer an internal struggle between the Han Dynasty, but a war between countries.

Protecting the family and defending the country is every man's duty.

At this moment of heroic righteousness, a group of Eastern Wu soldiers shouted the slogan of long live Wu and crashed into the warships of Huaguo one after another.

Similarly, almost all the Soochow warships chose to be destroyed together with the Chinese warships.

Quite simply, because they can barely escape.

Unless they surrender, they will definitely be hunted down.

The general gave the order, and the 30,000 Eastern Wu soldiers were quite supportive of Gan Ning, and they all chose to serve heroically.

They were defeated in the first battle, and they had no shame to return to Jiangdong.

In the face of the Eastern Wu Army's lifeless fighting style, the Chinese Navy was also stunned.

The fire-covered Soochow warships came quickly, just like fire ghosts who came to ask for their lives.

"General, what shall we do?"

Guan Cheng purred, what else can I do, I can only fight hard.

There are many warships in Soochow, and they have been completely surrounded.

The river surface is so small, it is almost impossible to hit out, only killing.

"The whole army is on alert to prevent enemy troops from boarding!" Guan Cheng immediately ordered.

In this way, except for the necessary gunners, catapults, and operators, all the other soldiers fought in close combat with weapons.

Although China already has AK rifles, they are available in limited quantities. So far, there are only 300,000 of them.

And most of these firearms were given to the expeditionary force.

In Xuzhou, only the imperial city guards, special forces and some important legions are equipped.

Naval warfare has always been dominated by artillery and incendiary bombs, and finally infantry combat.

Without rifles, they can only use cold weapons such as spears and knives.

In fact, in a surface battle like this, they hardly have to resort to melee weapons.

But no one expected that the Eastern Wu Army would choose this way of fighting together.

Soon, one by one, the Soochow warships collided with the Huaguo warships.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The cannon is still roaring.

However, the current cannon technology is very backward. After firing a shot, you have to reload the ammunition.

In addition, it is necessary to cool the gun chamber and many other complicated processes.

So the frequency of attacks is not high.

And the Soochow warship came quickly, which quickly collided with the Chinese warship.

Then, the Eastern Wu soldiers who were not dead used the springboard to kill the Chinese ships.

Gan Ning took the lead and was the first to jump on the Huaguo warship.

Gan Ning is powerful and powerful, and his broadsword is also extremely sharp, and wherever he passes, there is almost no one to stop the Chinese soldiers.

Even if he was wearing body armor, he still couldn't stop Gan Ning's big knife.

The rest of the Eastern Wu soldiers also took advantage of the situation to rush to the warship, and the two sides were inextricably separated for a while.

But at the same time, Gan Ning is also complaining.

Obviously, the opponent's armor looks like it is made of cotton clothes, but if you cut it, it is simply a huge resistance.

This didn't cut a few people, and Gan Ning couldn't cut it.

Damn, if it goes on like this, the Eastern Wu soldiers still can't please him.

Gan Ning saw it accurately, and directly picked up the naval leader Guan Cheng.

Capture the thief and capture the king first, this is the truth.

Guan Cheng has a good armor on his body, and he is also not false, and he is directly hard and rigid.

There is no way, after so many victories with Lu Bu, Guan Cheng is actually very inflated.

He thought that his martial arts were world-beating, and no one was invincible except Lu Bu.

It's only been a few rounds of fighting, and Guan Cheng regrets it. Only then did he know that in terms of martial arts, he was still the type of war scum.

It is also thanks to the high-level armor that Guan Cheng has in his body, otherwise he would have hung up a long time ago.

Knowing that he was not an opponent, Guan Cheng hurriedly called a helper.

At this point, at least Guan Cheng still loses face.

"Protect the General!" A group of Chinese navies rushed over.

After all, there are still few Dongwu soldiers boarding the ship, and the number of Dongwu soldiers is not advantageous at present.

Gan Ning was so angry that he couldn't help but scold angrily: "It's a general of Huaguo, it's so shameless!" ”

Guan Cheng disagreed, Lao Tzu's life is the most important thing, and those who want to save face will die early and be reborn.

There are too many people to beat and few people, and Gan Ning is stumbling for a while, which is also full of dangers.

Soon, the real chaos began.

Many Soochow warships were on fire, and this collision caused the Huaguo warships to catch fire as well.

This is a terrible thing, if it is left unchecked, if it ignites the gasoline and bombs on the warship, it will be a big deal.

As a result, many soldiers had to turn on fire hoses to extinguish the fires.

But in this way, more Eastern Wu soldiers boarded the warship.

In this way, the two sides killed a river of blood, and the entire river was stained red with blood.

There are not only the Eastern Wu soldiers, but also the Chinese Navy.

Even if you have more advanced equipment, but if someone beats you one by one, the deadly style of play can also pull you back.

It's just that it was the Eastern Wu soldiers who died more.

Soon, the two sides have developed into a state of non-stop.

In the face of such a scene, the Chinese soldiers were also helpless.

This kind of chaos can't help at all.

It doesn't matter if it's on an airship or on land.

The river is so small that it can't send more warships at all.

In the end, only the airship dropped a few bombs on the edge, causing more Soochow warships to sink.

And seeing the Eastern Wu soldiers dying one after another, Gan Ning, who was as dead as ashes, laughed: "Even if I, Gan Xingba, die in battle today, I have to find someone to back my back!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Gan Ning used his last remaining strength to slash at Guan Cheng with all his might.

Guan Cheng was shocked and blocked with a horizontal knife.

Unexpectedly, Gan Ning's knife was strong and heavy, and Guan Cheng was able to resist it, and he was cut down in an instant.

And the big knife just slashed diagonally from the neck of the tube, and the blood rushed in an instant.

"General!" A group of navies shouted and stabbed one after another.

And Gan Ning, who lost his strength, also fell, but Gan Ning fell down with a smile.

Pulling a cushion back, it's worth dying.

This vanguard battle lasted nearly an hour.

In the end, it ended with the victory of the Chinese navy.

But although it was a victory, it was a pyrrhic victory.

"Husband, in the first battle of the Yangtze River, our army lost 3,842 killed and 4,210 wounded, including 1,821 seriously wounded. 27,000 of the 30,000 troops of Soochow were killed, and only 3,000 wounded were captured. General Guan Cheng was seriously injured by Gan Ning and required more than 100 stitches. According to the report of the military doctor, he has just passed the danger period. Gan Ning was slightly injured and has been captured. ”
