Chapter 78: An inexplicable fiasco

The barbarian ships and Jingnan warships piled up together and went down the water.

Seeing this, Zhao Chenggui could not miss the opportunity, and urgently ordered the hundred warships in the water village to go out and chase them down.

The rain of arrows covered several waves, and then the boarding battle began.

With a rattan card in one hand and a horizontal sword in the other, such equipment is bound to be more agile than long weapons when fighting on a narrow deck.

The Jingnan Navy went on board and slashed and killed.

Many of the barbarians saw that they could not do anything and scattered in a hurry.

There were groups of people who fled to other boats, there were those who jumped directly into the water to survive, and of course, there were those who resisted desperately.

Originally, the barbarian ships were lined up on both sides of the river to avoid the oil and fireboats, and most of them were spared from the fire, and many barbarians were secretly happy.

But now the ships of both sides were crowded together and went down the river together, and among them there were several ships that were burning.

Now the warships are connected, and the wind cheers up, spreading down the warship.

Tongues of fire lick wildly, and arrows rain everywhere.

The brute was on the verge of a psychological breakdown.

At this time, Xiang Bi had already fled to Song Ye's flagship.

Originally, the flagships of Lei Yangong, Xiang Bi, Song Ye, and Shi Changyi were not far apart, so that it was convenient to communicate with each other and pass on news.

can be killed by the Jingnan naval army on the opposite side, coupled with the fire attack and the current bulldozer mode, the battleships of these people are getting farther and farther away, and they are already out of control.

Xiang Bi is now very embarrassed and wet.

"Song Shuai, it seems that you can't stay here for a long time."

Xiang Bi has now even snatched the flagship by others, he has to find a step for himself, otherwise it will be too embarrassing.

"Uh, indeed, indeed."

When Song Ye saw this situation, he was powerless.

"Turn the sails, withdraw."

At the sound of the order, the Chenzhou barbarians, who had long been panicked, moved faster than anyone else, turned their sails and rudders, and quickly separated from the other ships that came downstream.

After all, it was smooth sailing, and the distance was quickly widened.

He was at ease.

Those who think the same way are Shi Changyi.

He saw that he couldn't do anything, his own warships were already small, and if he lost too much, he would not have the money to rebuild.

So he also fled.

Now there are only Lei Yangong's Langzhou barbarians and some Lizhou barbarians who are fighting against the Jingnan Naval Army.

The Lizhou barbarians had no flagship command, so they could only rely on Lei Yangong and look at Lei Shuai's general banner.

But after the warships of Song Ye and Changyi of Chenzhou and Changyi of Lizhou withdrew from the battle, where could Lei Yangong resist? !

The Langzhou warships and some of the Lizhou warships were pushed sideways and rushed downstream.

The Ma Yin water army in the downstream was confused by the operation of these barbarians upstream.

Didn't you go to the police?

How did you guys get back? It's still that fast?

Huang Fan is the commander of the navy in the end, and he has rich experience in water warfare, he saw a fire in front of him on the ship, and the fierce fire oil roared and rushed downstream, his side had already prepared, and only a few warships close to the center of the river were affected.

After the fierce fire oil, dozens of more flaming fireships attacked, but fortunately, the sailors also used levers to push the fireboats away from the warship, and the fire was avoided.

The barbarians in front were fighting hotly, and Qin Yanhui and Huang Fan stood at the bow of the boat to watch the excitement.

The river is so wide that I can't squeeze into it, so I can only watch from behind.

It's a little wrong to look at.

Is the Jingnan Navy so brave?

It was a battle on the sideboard.

Uh, boarded?

Uh, it crashed into it?

Uh, I actually pushed the brute ship downstream, this is to hit myself?!

At this time, Huang Fan's back was cold.

"Withdraw, withdraw, turn the sail and rudder, retreat."

They are downstream, and there is still time to adjust.

You don't have to look at the slow speed of the boat going backwards, but the speed of the boat is not ordinary, and in just three moments, they are going down the river.

The united army that is now attacking Jingnan has suddenly changed from an offensive to an escape.

The first echelon is the 10,000 sailors of Ma Yin in Hunan, and the one who runs is called a Huan!

The second echelon is the naval army of Chenzhou Song Ye and Changyi of the Lizhou Division who forcibly disengaged.

The third echelon is the stewed Langzhou Lei Yangong, some of the defeated troops of Lizhou and the Jingnan Navy that took advantage of the situation.

Lei Yangong's naval warships are now walking backwards, and many warships have been filled with a large amount of river water, and there is a danger of capsizing.

Some small boats had already overturned on their sides and buckled on the river, and were pushed downstream by the Jingnan warship.

The barbarian ships that were closer to the Jingnan warships were empty, and the flames were rising, and the burning crackles exploded.

Some of the barbarian ships had fire-starters hanging on them, but this time they really caught fire.

There was a bang, and the flames were steaming.

The longer it passed, the more ships the flames spread.

The brutes had to run back.

It's time to see Lei Yangong's flagship.

At this time, Lei Yangong was also red-eyed.

Now where does he still have the mind to think about Gangneung, he is lucky to be able to go back alive.

"Turn the sail and turn the rudder, withdraw, withdraw."

The surrounding barbarian ships had already had the intention to flee for their lives, but they were afraid of Lei Yangong's obscenity and did not dare to make their own decisions. Now that there is such an order, it is polite, and regardless of whether the boat will capsize when it turns around now, it forcibly turns the bow of the ship and escapes.

It's a mess now.

Some of them turned urgently, capsized directly, and were pressed to the bottom by the big ships upstream, and the brutes on board were buried in the belly of the fish.

Although some of them turned their sails and rudders, it was to no avail, and the warship still went backwards and could not turn around at all.

Lei Yangong's flagship took a lot of effort, and finally got out of contact with the pile of garbage, dozens of feet away, running in front, and behind it were other brute ships in various states of crying father and mother.

The fire is burning the buttocks, and the chasing soldiers are close at hand, who is not afraid?

Lei Yangong wiped the beads of sweat on his head, the tattoos on his face trembled, and his long shawl hair moved with the wind.

His embarrassment was worse now than he had been two years ago!

It's over, it's over, it's all over.

Let's not talk about the Jingnan Navy that is chasing after me, even these barbarians are afraid that they will not accept themselves.

Look at the Huan Shi Song Ye and Shi Changyi running in front of him, their handsome flags are particularly dazzling.

Xiang Bi won't talk about it, now he doesn't know his life and death, and his Lizhou is over.

I'm no better.

Song Ye of Chenzhou and Shi Changyi of Lizhou are not good birds, their own strength has been greatly damaged, and they must have the heart of annexation.

Oh, the world is so big, where is my place!

I think that when my father is alive, on both sides of the big lake, in the land of Jingnan, there are many storms and clouds, and there is no hindrance.

Look at yourself now, you will lose your troops and lose your generals!

Passing by the mouth of the waterlogged river, none of them dared to enter the waterway again.

When I first came, I could advance along the river slowly, but now I am running for my life, or I am insured in the river.

"Keep chasing!"

The rise of Zhao Chenggui's killing, a soldier came to report, and he was about to go to Shishou.

You must know that this is the 90-degree bend of the Jingjiang River, surrounded by cliffs, and there is Shishou Mountain standing on the riverside. Ten miles upstream of Shishou Mountain, there is a sandbar in the heart of the river, where the river water is diverted left and right.

The terrain of the sandbar is dangerous, with a water village, and there are 2,000 Jingnan naval troops stationed there.

Here, the Jingnan Navy has long found warships coming from the upstream, and the flag is the Hunan Ma Yin Navy.

They knew that Lei Yangong's barbarians were attacking the public security and were already preparing for war, but they didn't know that Hunan's naval army had also participated in the war.

Yuezhou is downstream of Shishou, and as long as these warships go downstream, they can reach Yuezhou.

Jingxiang's reinforcements are going to break into Yuezhou, and if this naval army is allowed to go to Yuezhou, then the reinforcements will be dangerous.

"Pull up the Hengjiang Iron Cable!"

The sandbar is located in the middle of the river, the left and right waterways are narrow, and the iron cables are ready-made, but they only sink to the bottom of the river in peacetime and will be pulled up in wartime.

The soldiers moved the winch in the sandbar water village, and the crunching winch pulled the heavy iron cable, and the sound was loud, and then looked at the water, like a giant dragon out of the water, and the python turned over.

The iron cables on the left and right sides are horizontal in the middle of the river.

The catapult had the stones ready and waited for the enemy to arrive.

It was past noon, and the various echelons of sailors who were busy fleeing for their lives did not eat, and fought fiercely for a long time, and the hunger was unbearable.

But look at the flames chasing behind your ass, it's important to escape.

"Report to the general, there is a water village ahead, and there is an iron cable on the river!"

"What?"

"Go and cut the ropes."

When the sailors fled for their lives, they burst out with amazing courage.

Several small boats left the flotilla and headed for the ferrata.

When he was more than ten feet away from the iron cable, he threw down the iron anchor and fixed himself under the iron cable, and the ship was burning with fierce fire oil, and after three minutes, the iron cable turned red.

Next to him is a wrestler with a giant axe, ready to cut the iron cable.

The Jingnan Navy on the sandbar was not blind, and when they saw the iron rope turning red, they immediately put the iron cable into the water, and the sound of red iron entering the water sounded, and bursts of white steam rose, and when they saw that the fog dissipated, they pulled it up again.

When the wrestler saw that the iron rope was about to be put into the water, he moved the boat to catch the iron cable, put an anvil under the iron cable, and chopped it with an axe, and the clanging sound of gold and iron resounded across the river.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Arrows flew like locusts on the sandbank, covering the boat that cut the chains.

There were heavy casualties in an instant.

After a few rounds of arrow rain, only a fluttering boat is left under the iron cable, where is there still half a figure?!

"Stone-throwing!"

There were several trebuchets on all large battleships.

Huang Fan ordered several fighting ships to come forward and throw stone projectiles at the sandbar.

The stone bullets whistled and rumbled, and the ping-pong smashed the wooden fence of the water village and smashed it, and some soldiers were smashed to the bones and tendons, and the miserable howls continued.

"Stone."

The sandbar did not show weakness, and the trebuchet was at full power, and the two sides launched a stone throwing battle on this narrow river channel.

The space on the ship is limited, the trebuchets installed are not large, the range and projection weight are limited, and therefore the damage to the water wall is also limited.

However, the water village is built on a sandbank, and a large trebuchet can be set up, which has advantages in range and projection weight.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Ah!

Belch!

Yes!

The soldiers on the warship had no way to hide, and naturally the casualties were greater.

In a few rounds, the fighting ship that stepped forward to throw stones was smashed with thousands of holes and suffered heavy casualties.

As soon as they stopped, the barbarian ships of the second echelon behind them caught up.

Seeing that the front broke down and stopped, he could only pause and escape.

Send a sentinel to find out the news.

Soon the sentinel ship reported that there was a barrage in front, and it couldn't be crossed, so it was fighting!

Hearing this news, Song Ye and Shi Changyi were anxious.

It's urgent to chase behind, and if you don't run, you'll have to take it all here!

After waiting for a while, I saw that there was no progress in front, and Lei Yangong of the third echelon came, and he was a real killer behind him.

Song Ye's eyes rolled, and he was in a hurry.

"Get on the Red Horse Boat."

He took his own troops with them and got into small boats, which had no masts or sails, and could only be pulped.

Seeing that the commander got on the boat, the barbarians who reacted also crowded into the boat, and at this time, three or four boats capsized.

Shi Changyi saw that Song Ye had all gotten on the red horse boat, and he also jumped on it.

The brutes who were not qualified to go on the Red Horse Boat all sat on the deck in a gloomy manner, waiting for the verdict of fate.

Hundreds of red horse boats, carrying nearly 1,000 people, shot downstream like arrows from the string.

When Qin Yanhui and Huang Fan saw a hundred red horse boats shooting behind them, they knew that the barbarians had fled.

They are regular troops, but they can't see deserters, barbarians flee, and the Hunan Navy is also panicked, looking at the flagship in panic.

Lei Yangong's echelon couldn't help it if they didn't abandon the ship, they were blocked by Song Ye and Shi Changyi's abandoned ship.

Run.

Where did Lei Yangong talk about face, jumped on the red horse boat and ran away.

The barbarians who remained on the ship cried for their fathers and mothers, and knelt on the deck to surrender.
