Chapter 624: Building Ship VS Serial Ship Formation

Due to the strong impact, and the shipbuilding was burned to a brittle state. Shortly after the impact, the entire building of the four-story ship collapsed and landed in the chain of ships. At this time, the building ship and the chain ship array are no longer separated. The fire spread incessantly, and soon engulfed the chain of ships and the entire building ship.

Seeing that the boat crashed into the chain of ships before it was engulfed in flames, Gan Ning hammered his fist on the side of the ship, and said hatefully: "Damn it! ”

Using a chain of ships to exchange for a building ship, Gan Ning naturally felt that his side was losing, and it was also the enemy's building ship that would be defeated by the enemy. However, this is just Gan Ning's idea, but Jiang Dong feels that it is also a loss to exchange a building ship for a series of ships of the enemy, you must know that it costs a lot to build a building ship.

Although both sides felt that they had lost, the war was so tragic. And after the collision between the building ship and the chain of ships, the soldiers on both sides became even more crazy, and they fought even more desperately, completely killing red eyes.

Here, Zhou Tai and Chen Wu attacked Tai Shi Ci and forced Tai Shi Ci into the defensive again. In the previous confrontation, Tai Shici gave Zhou Tai a lot of flesh wounds. The pain of these flesh wounds is nothing to Zhou Tai, a tough guy, but an injury is an injury after all, Zhou Tai can endure the pain, but the wounds in his body will still bleed. What's more, because the fierce battle increased the flow of blood in his body, after fighting for so long, Zhou Tai lost a lot of blood and began to feel a little dizzy and weak.

Chen Wu, who was fighting side by side with him, naturally saw that Zhou Tai was not good, and immediately said: "Youping, go and bandage the wound first, there is a certain resistance here!" ”

Zhou Tai heard it and knew his own problem, so he advised: "Be careful!" After that, he temporarily withdrew from the battle circle.

Tai Shi Ci saw that where he was willing to give up, the defensive position turned to the offensive again, and the cold moon spear shook again and again, in order to leave Zhou Tai behind. It's just that Chen Wu on the side was already on guard, and immediately fought hard to catch up and resist Tai Shici's attack. As soon as he was blocked by Chen Wu, Zhou Tai had successfully withdrawn from the battle circle, and Tai Shici saw it, so he immediately made a decision and turned the target to Chen Wu. At the same time, he said: "Since you want to fight for him, then the general will take you down first!" After speaking, Tai Shi Ci increased the intensity of the attack.

Chen Wu's martial arts are second only to Zhou Tai among the generals in Jiangdong, but compared with Tai Shici, it is not half a star. Just now Zhou Tai fought alone, Tai Shi Ci was also stabbed by Tai Shi Ci's spear and cut a few wounds, and now he is replaced by Chen Wu, so he can only fight hard.

However, in the water war, the influence of the generals is far less than that of the 6th war, not to mention that there are several small battlefields on the river now, which have little impact on each other.

The two naval armies led by Huo Jun and Wen Ping on both sides faced off against Pan Zhang and Ling Cao, and the war also fell into a stalemate. The two sides fought evenly, usually for every time Zhang Xiujun lost a warship, the Jiangdong Army was the same. This style of play is completely against the attritional style.

Tai Shixiang's chain of ships still had a condescending advantage at the beginning against the warship group under Sun Shao's department. But now, under Sun Shao's leading soldiers, he has led the Jiangdong soldiers to kill the serial ship formation, and launched a white-knuckle battle with Taishi Xiang's department. However, because Sun Shao's side lost a lot of soldiers at the beginning, although he was now killed in a chain of ships, he was at a disadvantage in terms of troops. It's just that Sun Shao's martial arts are a little better than Tai Shi Xiang, so Tai Shi Xiang is at a disadvantage in the battle, which makes the morale of the Jiangdong Army rise sharply, and the battle is evenly divided.

And Zhu Huan's department led the fighting ship group to attack the warship group that was used as cover by Gan Ning before. There was no advantage over the fighting ship from the old one, so Zhu Huan's department completely had the upper hand.

Gan Ning in the back looked at the six roads and took in the situation of the entire battlefield. After a round of fierce attacks by Fang Cai's own side, the Jiangdong Army also began to be powerful, and all battlefields recovered their declining momentum, and Zhu Huan's troops even gained the upper hand. Looking at the situation, now the fastest hope to solve the battle on Zhang Xiujun's side is Tai Shi Ci's place, after Tai Shi Ci's two crossbow attacks, the Jiangdong Army has suffered heavy losses, plus Tai Shi Ci's bravery, Gan Ning's judgment is not too much deviation.

It's just that time waits for no one, and at this time, Zhou Yu and Dong Xi have already led the five-story ship into the battlefield. If Zhang Xiu saw it, he would definitely call this building ship an "aircraft carrier" in the late Han Dynasty. Of course, its combat mode and other aspects are far from being comparable with real aircraft carriers.

However, it can be seen that the building ship is far superior to the average warship in terms of hull.

Seeing this, Gan Ning's pupils shrank, and he shouted: "Summons Gan Pei, immediately move closer to the general's battleship, and form a chain of ships to deal with the enemy's ships!" Also, get all the trebuchets ready to do what Ben commands. Gan Ning gave an order, and naturally some soldiers obeyed the order.

Gan Ning's forehead was not alive at this time, and he was in a cold sweat, and the battle with the Jiangdong Navy could be said to be the most difficult battle since Gan Ning's debut. If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Xiu's navy had developed so many new weapons, and that there were new warships and so many things, those old warships alone would have been more defeated than the Jiangdong army's warships. And Gan Ning also knows that the only thing that can be done on his side and confront the building ship head-on is the serial ship formation!

"Click! Click...... Boom ......"

Bursts of crisp sounds and roars couldn't stop exploding, but it was the six new warships left in Gan Pei and the five warships on Gan Ning's side forming a chain of ships.

As soon as the formation of the formation was completed, the five-story ship on the opposite side had already been killed!

Looking at the building boat from a distance is naturally not as strong as watching it up close, and now Gan Ning and his son are facing the building boat, and they still feel "high" and big. The lower cabin of the building ship to the deck of the first floor is slightly lower than that of the new warship, but the five-story high building makes Gan Ning's breath stagnant.

The five-story building is nothing in the era before Zhang Xiu's crossing, but you must know that in the late Han Dynasty, two-storey buildings were relatively rare, and only in Chang'an, Luoyang, Xuchang and other big cities. The height of three floors is already very high, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the fifth floor is the highest in this era. A five-story building is considered the tallest building in any city in the Han Dynasty, so a boat on the river is as terrifying as a giant!

Seeing that the building boat was getting closer and closer, it had slowed down without excessively, Gan Ning exhaled lightly. If all the building ships collide with each other, then the building ships will certainly not be able to penetrate the chain ship formation, but the building ship and the chain ship formation can also be declared high and finished together. Obviously, the Jiangdong Navy is still very cautious about the use of building ships.

But this was just Gan Ning's idea, and on the boat, a confident smile had flashed on Zhou Yu's face. Although the building ship has such and such shortcomings, there is no doubt that as long as it is close to the building boat, no one can stop this giant at all!

In addition to the building ships, there were also a small number of fighting ships and sterns guarding the building ships, but compared to the building ships, these medium-sized warships did not affect the battle situation too much.

Seeing that the building ship was already close to the enemy's serial ship formation, Dong Xi hurriedly said to Zhou Yu on the side: "Governor, the last general is invited to fight!" ”

Zhou Yu smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Don't rush first." Pass the order, the archers on the ship's floor, and freely release arrows at the enemy's ship formation! ”

Zhou Yu gave an order, and above the five-story shipbuilding, the archers immediately rushed to the side and tried their best to release arrows from the top of the ship.

"Woo Woo ......"

The sound of sharp arrows piercing the air couldn't help but be heard, and for a moment, the entire sky was densely packed with sharp arrows. Even when Gan Ning saw it, his face couldn't help but change, and he immediately shouted: "Raise your shield!" Collision avoidance! After saying that, Gan Ning himself hurriedly waved the iron rope to dial the sharp arrow, and at the same time dodged and hid in a place where there was a ship tower on the side.

It's just that not everyone has the same skills as Gan Ning. The sword and shield hand is a little better, the leather shield can block most of the sharp arrows in one move, plus there is armor on the body, and the middle arrow is a flesh wound. It's just that the archer was not so lucky, and he was pierced through the head by a sharp arrow from the building ship without cover, and he died on the spot!

Although the chain of ships composed of eleven new warships was huge, at the height of the ship, the Jiangdong sergeants on the tower were armed with bows and arrows, and it was easy to cover the entire chain of ships with bows and arrows. The design of the building ship, the bow and arrow is one of its offensive weapons, with the bow and arrow to attack the enemy ship, the enemy can not fight back at all. If you change to a single warship, I'm afraid that if a round of arrows rains down, the Jiangdong Army can directly charge to solve the battle.

It's just that now, the Jiangdong Army is spending more effort. A confident smile flashed on Zhou Yu's face, and at the same time, above the ship, there were more archers from the Jiangdong Army gathered on the side of the shipbuilding to shoot arrows, making it much more to shoot sharp arrows.

In addition to the tall shipyard, the building ship can carry a large number of soldiers is also an advantage. It's like this five-story ship, which can carry 3,000 soldiers. In 6 battles, 3,000 soldiers can not play a big role, but water battles are different, 3,000 soldiers on one ship, can definitely top ten ships and fighting ships.

Now the Jiangdong sergeant on the building boat can't stop shooting sharp arrows, covering the entire chain of ships, and in the face of such a sharp attack by the building boat, Zhang Xiujun has no way at all. The archers tried to fight back, but the arrows could not reach the ship, so they flew up and were unlikely to hit the soldiers in the ship. Now Zhang Xiujun on the chain of ships was completely passively beaten, and many smart soldiers hurriedly retreated into the cabin to avoid the rain of arrows.

Gan Ning's iron rope was still dancing rapidly, but his head couldn't stop looking at the roof of the battleship, and he muttered in his mouth: "Stinky boy, haven't you done it yet?" ”

Just when Gan Ning was secretly anxious, on the top of the battleship building in the middle of the chain of ships, Gan Pei was under the protection of several sword and shield men holding shields, shouting: "Trebuchet, aim at the enemy shipbuilding, shoot!" ”

Gan Pi gave an order, and on the chain of ships, eleven trebuchets aimed at the ship's building at the same time, and then they heard a muffled sound of "bang bang bang" eleven times, but it was the trebuchet braving the rain of arrows and began to move!

"Huhuhu......"

The trebuchet threw thirty-three stone projectiles. The stone bullet pierced the air with a strong whistling sound!

Zhou Yu, who was on the other side, saw the stone-throwing maneuver, his face suddenly changed, and he lost his voice: "It's not good!" ”

As if confirming Zhou Yu's words, thirty of the thirty-three stone bullets hit the tall ship. I only heard the continuous roar of "boom, boom, boom", followed by the screams of the Jiangdong soldiers in the shipbuilding.

At this moment, Dong Xi suddenly pushed Zhou Yu away, and shouted at the same time: "Be careful!" ”

"Boom ......"

Before Zhou Yu could react, he was pushed away by Dong Xi, followed by a loud bang. Zhou Yu looked in the direction where he had been standing, and saw a round stone bullet as big as three fists smashed into the place where he was. If it weren't for Dong Xian's timely reaction and pushing him away, I was afraid that Zhou Yu would have been smashed into a big hole in his head by the stone bullet that fell from the sky at this time, and he would have died on the spot.

Dong Xi was also secretly glad that he pushed Zhou Yu away in time. At this time, I saw that Zhou Yu had already stood up again, walked to the stone bullet, picked up the stone bullet with both hands and held it in his hand. Seeing this, Dong Xi asked with some concern: "Governor, be careful!" ”

Zhou Yu waved his hand, indicating that it was okay. After holding the stone bullet and looking up and down, he sighed: "Zhang Xiu's people actually made the stone bullet so exquisitely? No wonder it can be carried by a medium-sized battleship. ”

At this time, Dong Xi also came over and watched together. These projectiles are very different from the boulders that ordinary trebuchets shoot. Most of the stones used in ordinary trebuchets are unpolished, and even if they are, they are very rough, and they are all boulders, and they rarely use such delicate stone projectiles, only three fist-sized stone projectiles.

Except for the fact that it takes a lot of effort to make, these stone projectiles are not much less lethal than rough boulders, and they are extremely powerful when they fall from the sky. Because of its small size, the shooting range will be much higher and more accurate. It is especially suitable for carrying on water operations by medium-sized warships.

These stone bullets were also specially created by Zhang Xiu after absorbing the disadvantages of using trebuchets for water warfare for the first time, but they were indeed difficult to make. However, with Zhang Xiu's current strength, it is not too difficult to make thousands of such stone bullets. And these stone bullets are also the materials used to make thunder fire bullets.

Due to the presence of fire oil, the thunder bombs were only carried in small quantities for fear that the battleship would catch fire and cause it to be out of control, but these stone bombs would rather not be polite, and all the new warships carried a lot. In the face of the attack of the building ship, the trebuchet can give the most powerful counterattack!

Just when Zhou Yu was looking at the stone bullets, Gan Pi on the opposite side had already commanded the trebuchet to launch a new round of attacks again!

This time, each trebuchet was loaded with two stone bullets, and the twenty-two stone bullets were directly thrown out and smashed towards the tall five-story ship!

"Boom, boom, boom......"

A series of powerful roars rang out, and the huge shipbuilding was blasted out of dozens of holes larger than the mouth of the bowl under the attack of the trebuchet! V
