Chapter 312: Actions After Nightfall
The soldiers of the Jinfan Sailor Division were so excited after getting this military order, they had been aggrieved for most of the day, and the Jinfan Sailor Division had never been so aggrieved since the founding of the army, they wanted to fight, they wanted to fight back, and they wanted to get out of that evil spirit.
"Kill ......"
All the catapults and ballistas did not stop at all, bombarding the enemy ships infinitely, and quickly approaching the enemy ships, going down the river, the coalition warships were changing positions under the command of the civil appointment, and the warships in front had to be urgently withdrawn, but this was not the case at all, it was chaotic, it was completely chaotic, the warships in front could not be withdrawn, the warships in the rear did not come, they were all crowded on the narrow river and could not move, the front and back were linked, and it was useless to let the flag be waved no matter how it was waved.
"It's broken, don't change it, order the whole army of warships to turn around, we retreat, hurry up and withdraw from this channel."
Wen Ping saw that the Jinfan sailors pressed up, the boulders flew sideways, and the spears "swished" to shoot, and he felt anxious in his heart, now is not the time to attack, he finally understands why there is a small army of Gan Ning, which is completely used to compress his formation, silently forcing himself to completely fall into this desperate road of advancing and retreating, and can't help but sigh: "Jizhou can produce many people." ”
Although he is the commander of the army, he has been in Jingzhou all these years under the Jingzhou Navy General Cai Mao, Cai Mao is the real commander of the Jingzhou army, and even Liu Biao has to give three points, he is the new promotion of Liu Biao in the past two years, and he does not have enough understanding of the tactics of the sailors, and the number of actual battles is even rarer, and it is natural to fall into Zhou Yu's trap.
It was too late to resist, and their former warships were badly damaged. Even the durability of the ships he was riding in had dropped to less than 50 percent, and two other ships and five special warships had been sunk in the Yellow River. The Jinfan sailors were menacing, and the artillery fire continued. How can you resist it.
"Quick, U-turn, turn to the North Shore Passage and retreat quickly."
Seeing that the military order to retreat was issued, but the scene was chaotic, and it was difficult to implement the military order, and the warships in the rear were still twenty miles away, and they didn't see what the battlefield was like at all, how could they know what the military order was so quickly, and they were still blindly sailing forward. Although the speed was a little slower, forcing the coalition warships to ram back and forth, and it was impossible to retreat in a short time, Wen Ping hurriedly took the risk to command the huge ships and special warships of the front army to retreat from the north shore channel full of artillery fire, so that there was still a glimmer of life, and waiting in place was a death.
Sun Ce never left, leading the army on the shore, and when he saw this scene, he came to the spirit. The evacuation of the north bank channel is the best warships of the coalition forces, and if they are all sunk, it will be too beneficial to their side, and the Yellow River will become a natural danger again, and they have a basis for advancing and retreating.
"Shoot. Shoot, shoot at those dozens of big ships, and don't care about other places. Quick, fast. Fast. ”
Sun Ce shouted desperately, the enemy warship was too close to him. How can a thousand machines let them pass safely, Gan Ning is also trying his best to stop it, his warships are scarce, and blocking one is one.
Seeing that the already dilapidated enemy capital ship turned around and fled with a boulder spear, Zhou Yu hurriedly ordered the warship to sail quickly, without those shipwrecks and super-class warships, his warships and super-class warships were completely dominant, and he could sink the enemy ship by using the slapsticks on both sides of the warship closely.
"Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw quickly, leave the catapults on the shore alone, and get out of the channel as soon as possible." Wen Ping shouted loudly, hoping to take more warships and evacuate.
"Don't stop, keep attacking, hurry, you guys hurry up and carry the stones." Sun Ce, who is diametrically opposed, commanded the troops to operate the equipment, kept throwing, and kept attacking.
There were no warships that were the enemy with him, Zhou Yu's attack was very smooth, row after row of warships were sunk at the bottom of the river, Jinfan sailors pressed forward step by step, and the coalition forces in the middle and rear positions finally knew what was happening ahead, their position was okay, the formation was not compressed, and it was not very difficult to turn around, these warships first began to turn around and sail towards the lower reaches of the Yellow River.
Seeing this situation, the warships had a desperate attitude, gave up operating the ships, did not advance or retreat, but waited for the Jinfan sailors in place, waiting for the enemy ships to enter their range and return to fight with them.
But their direction is too simple, you think about not running desperately, but the others are not like this, they still follow the military order of Wen Ping to turn around and escape, those prepared warships were quickly washed away by these, and even the washed boats were destroyed, and all preparations were lost.
The battle ended quickly, in an hour, the 300 warships of the former army of the coalition army sank to the bottom of the river in addition to more than 40 that escaped, and the soldiers were reduced to fish and shrimp in the water, Jinfan Sailor ushered in the first big victory of the Lu Lin plot, and Zhou Yu and Sun Ce also ushered in the first big victory in Jizhou.
The sky is getting dark, the enemy warship has run away without a trace, it must have fled downstream, I don't know which ferry port it will dock at, or go directly to the sea, go back to Le'anguo, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and others guess that the probability of returning to Le'anguo is greater, after all, the enemy army is fighting in a different place, no matter where the Yellow River crossing, it will not be safe, Jinfan sailors can attack at night at any time, which is especially unfavorable to them.
The sailors returned, the warships docked at the north shore ferry, and sent alert personnel to investigate the situation within dozens of miles around, as for the farther place, it can only be reported by the defenders of the downstream ferry, the army returned to the north shore camp to eat, rest for a while, and are tired after a day of fighting, and the warship is responsible for the warship navigation labor, all have to come out to rest, they are the most tired, the wine and meat are ready, there is no favoritism, the specifications are the same as the soldiers, they can have a full meal, a good sleep.
After nightfall, according to the hour, it should be two o'clock, that is, around eight o'clock in reality, before a war report arrived at Sun Ce's case, Sun Ce immediately convened the generals in the army to discuss.
After everyone saw it, Zhou Yu immediately said: "Bo Fu, I feel that this is a once-in-a-lifetime fighter, we should seize it and send troops as soon as possible." ”
The two looked at each other and immediately understood what the other party was thinking, and then laughed, Sun Ce said: "Okay, you all go and gather the army and prepare for battle, how to arrange it is all up to Gong Jin, and we will attack at three o'clock." ”
Except for Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, none of the other generals knew why they wanted to gather troops and how to fight this battle, and they were completely confused, but Sun Ce was the commander, and the generals had to obey the order and follow Zhou Yu to go out to prepare for this big battle at night.
Now it is March, the ice and snow have just been spent, the earth has just regained spring, the weather is still very cold at night, the soldiers who have fought for a day can rest in the warm quilt at night, the charcoal fire in the camp tent is enough to burn all night, providing warmth for the soldiers, and the sleeping soldiers make earth-shaking snoring, which is also a scene in the army.
In addition to the normal sentry sent by the coalition army, there are also some guards guarding the warship, most of them have already gone to sleep, the weather is cold, late at night, the weather seems to be three points colder, the sentry and guard of the coalition army are wrapped in thick cotton clothes and quilts, standing in their respective posts are also drowsy, they don't want to do anything, they just want to spend this damn night quickly.
At three o'clock, very punctual, there were one ferry after another on the surface of the Yellow River, and there was only one soldier on each ferry, just operating the direction of the ferry, not caring about the speed of the ferry, completely relying on the current to sail.
The ferry passed, and saw one warship after another, there were not many of them, only a dozen, there was no light, it was dark, the ships only relied on the visibility visible to the naked eye to operate the ships, everything was quiet, as if it had never happened......
