Chapter 657, counterattack on Yi County

It wasn't until it was nearly dark that the battle came to an end. There is no doubt that this great battle ended in the defeat of Huang Zu.

When Huang Zu fled, it did not mean the end of the war, because there were more large and small warships scattered on the surface of the river for tens of miles, and many of them were in stubborn resistance.

After Huang Zu fled, Zhou Yu concentrated the superior warships and finished off the main recalcitrant opponents everywhere in more than two hours. Either they were captured, or they sank themselves, and of course there were those who were unwilling, and all of them were killed in battle; There are countless people who were engulfed in the fire, and there are also those who escaped and returned to the camp in Yixian County......

Although Huang Zu still had the strength to fight when he broke through, the courage of the Jiangxia Navy had been shattered and he no longer had the will to fight. Moreover, until he found a special skill to counter Zhou Yu, Huang Zu did not dare to expose his large building ship to Zhou Yu's close attack - even if the large building ship had stronger fire resistance, it could not resist a large number of rocket attacks.

……

The turbulent river quickly washed away the traces of the battle, except for the smell of the river breeze and the remains of battleships buried underwater, which proved that there was a great battle here, there was no trace of it. And soon, even the last vestiges will be gone - it's just a game, after all.

The results were remarkable, but they were not without effort.

Only 2 medium-sized ships were sunk on the battlefield, and 2 were seriously damaged and could no longer continue the campaign, so they could only withdraw from the battle sequence for overhaul, and the remaining 14 ships could still continue to fight, and the main force suffered little loss.

On the contrary, other small and medium-sized warships suffered heavy losses. According to post-war statistics, there are still 75 small building ships left that can continue to fight, and nearly half of the fighting ships have been lost, after all, Huang Zu's fleet is very strong, even if Zhou Yu occupies an absolute advantage, it will not be able to avoid the counterattack of the Jiangxia army before the temporary.

Compared with the loss of warships, the navy itself has come back more, only losing 30%, but in terms of the number, there are tens of millions of them. That is, in the game, although it is close to reality, with the continuous development of power, most people are becoming more and more like numbers on paper in Liu Feng's eyes.

In the game, it is not "ten thousand bones", but hundreds of thousands, millions of dry bones. Liu Feng is also very helpless in this regard, what he can do is to do the best for the bereavement pension.

It is suspected of buying people's hearts, but it is the best means.

In the battle, no matter how well Zhou Yu controlled it, it was inevitable that his own warships would be sunk or captured by the enemy, or ignited by the chaotic fire, forcing the Jiangdong naval army to jump into the river. Because of the advantage on the scene, it was very convenient in the rescue, and a considerable number of people were rescued from the water. On the contrary, if the Jiangxia water sergeant falls into the water, it will be difficult to survive.

Although the losses are many, the record is better. According to rough statistics, there were 5 medium-sized building ships of the Jiangxia Navy that were sunk, 3 were engulfed by fire, 2 were surrounded and could not escape and sank by themselves, 3 were abandoned because of serious damage, 13 medium-sized building ships of the Jiangxia Navy could be determined, only 6 fled with Huang Zu, and 2 were unknown. As for the small and medium-sized warships, they suffered countless losses, and not many of them could escape back.

In addition, Zhou Yu seized 17 small building ships, 29 fighting ships, 103 shipwrecks, and 166 boats, although most of them had damage of different sizes, but they also made up for some of the losses. As for the three medium-sized building ships abandoned by the Jiangxia Navy, they were finally towed back and dismantled by the Jiangdong Army because they were difficult to repair, and they were not captured.

Most of the 170,000 people captured by the Jiangxia Navy were buried underwater, and not many escaped back. According to Zhou Yu's estimate, it would be good to have thirty percent of them go back. Among the captives, Su Fei, who had just been demoted by Huang Zu, was impressively listed. Su Fei, who was dismissed from his military position to command a small building ship, failed to break through with Huang Zu, and after a bloody battle, he was outnumbered and encircled, and Zhou Tai personally defeated and took it.

This is also the only historical general who was captured by Jiangdong in this battle.

……

The battle ended, and Liu Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief. The depressed mood that had been threatened by the Jingzhou Navy was finally relieved. Although this is only one part of the Jingzhou Naval Army, and another part is fighting in Jingnan, this victory is enough for Jiangdong to catch up under the leadership of Zhou Yu. Besides, it is unknown whether Jingnan's navy will be able to come back.

After the war, it's time to trim. As one of the naval bases of Huang Zu, the Exian battalion naturally had no shortage of docks, and after returning, the soldiers began to repair, and the shipbuilders of the army began to get busy and stepped up repairing the damaged warships.

Huang Zu, who returned to the camp in Yixian County, immediately blocked the waterway with the intention of protecting himself, and at the same time explained the defeat in detail to Xiangyang and Liu Biao.

Liu Biao, who received the news, almost vomited blood in fright, but fortunately, Huang Zu swore that he would definitely keep Jiangxia and stop the Jiangdong army in Jiangnan. But at the same time, he also asked to send him a 7th-order Zhiyuan, otherwise he would not be able to resist Zhou Yu's "Rocket Sky Attack".

In fact, not to mention that Huang Zu was only defeated here, even if the situation was more severe, Liu Biao would not be able to withdraw and return to his division. The battle of Changsha has reached a critical time, almost all of Wuling's troops have been mobilized here, Liu Biao is fighting hard with Zhang Xian here, Liu Dan and his party are picking up cheap in Wuling, and recovering Wuling County all the way unhurriedly. When the news of Huang Zu's defeat came, Wuling was almost completely under Liu Dan's control, and his power had developed by leaps and bounds, with faint signs of being out of control.

If Liu Biao chooses to withdraw at this time, his efforts in Jingnan will be in vain, and Zhang Xian will definitely not let him withdraw smoothly. In the case of great hidden dangers behind him, withdrawing troops is obviously not a good idea, Liu Biao can only grit his teeth and insist.

The land of Jingxiang was also full of talents in the Three Kingdoms era, otherwise, Liu Bei would not have been able to get enough talents in Jingnan for a few years to assist him in Yizhou. After receiving Huang Zu's request for help, Liu Biao immediately sent a letter to Xiangyang and asked Kuai Liang to send Yi to Yi County to assist Huang Zu in guarding Jiangxia. As for himself, he gritted his teeth and insisted on attacking Changsha.

Huang Zu's request for help took time, and before the arrival of the Iraqi nationality, Zhou Yu decided to immediately attack the camp of the Yixian Navy and annihilate all the remnants of the Jiangxia Navy after repairing for three days. Although at this time, a large number of warships had not yet had time to be repaired and could not fight with the army.

In this expedition, there were many fewer warships, only three or four hundred in total, and the number of people was certainly much less, but it still looked shocking. The number of medium-sized building ships has not decreased much, and 15 medium-sized building ships have replenished the stones, lined up and killed the camp in Yixian County.
