In fact, Yang Wei dispatched his troops in full accordance with the tactical timing he had predetermined before the war, and along the way, he did not waste any time at all, and rushed to the predetermined battlefield within the predetermined time.

It's just that Yang Wei also made a small mistake, he miscalculated the melee power of the Eastern Wu Naval Army, thinking that Zhong Limu relied on those elite veterans, even if he couldn't defeat the Eastern Wu Naval Army, it should be very easy to entangle them for a while.

But who knows, when Yang Wei led the main fleet to the battlefield, Zhongli was a little bit close to the pastoral department, and he was about to be directly defeated.

But fortunately, Yang Wei finally arrived in time.

As soon as he arrived at the battlefield and found that the situation in Zhongli Mu was quite unfavorable now, Yang Wei did not hesitate and immediately made his own command.

On the one hand, a fleet of Mengchong warships was dispatched to quickly support Zhongli's pastoral department and stabilize the situation as soon as possible.

On the other hand, Yang Wei didn't engage in any more tactics of encirclement and non-encirclement, Zhong Limu's side was about to be unable to hold on, and time did not allow him to do so, so he simply went straight to the place and sent his own "new weapon".

And this "new weapon" is also another important reason why Yang Wei dared to boast in front of Zhang Xi that the combat strength of his own naval army was not lower than that of the Eastern Wu naval army.

And then bar. Zhu Ran saw that from the Jiangling Navy, a "behemoth" suddenly sailed out.

Because it was far away, and Zhu Ran was now fighting on the other side of the battlefield, his first feeling about this "behemoth" was that this thing was much bigger than the Meng Chong battleship.

Zhu Ran's first reaction to this was that the Jiangling Navy had dispatched a building ship? !

The building boat is a mobile offensive fortress on the water, which can accommodate six or seven hundred people to fight on it, and the building boat is very high, and when fighting on the water, it can occupy a condescending effect, and the blow to the small warship and the walker is fatal.

Dongwu actually also has a building ship, but the cost of this thing is too expensive, so expensive that the money and grain used to build a building ship can build ten Mengchong warships.

And this thing, although the combat power is really good, but it also has a lot of shortcomings, the speed is too slow, it needs to be escorted by a warship, and at the same time, because the attack facilities on the ship are too high, the center of gravity is unstable, and it is easy to roll over in case of a windy day.

As a result, Soochow, which has the largest navy in the world, has only built two building ships in total.

One is Sun Quan's flagship, which will only be officially opened when Sun Quan personally leads the naval army to fight, and the other is placed at the junction of Jianye's Neihu Lake and the Yangtze River, which is used to defend the country.

Therefore, when Zhu Ran saw that the Jiangling Navy suddenly dispatched the building boat, he didn't know how to evaluate it in his heart.

It is indeed useful, especially in this situation of entanglement between the two sides, a building ship can easily break the entanglement between the two sides and unilaterally suppress the enemy.

But if you want to say how useful it is, it is not necessarily that once the two sides get rid of the entanglement, with the speed of Zhu Ran's Baqiu naval army, it is impossible to catch up with this building boat.

Even the Jiangling Navy didn't dare to pursue the Baqiu Navy with all its might in order to protect the Lou ship, after all, this thing was too expensive, and it would take several years to lose one.

Of course, the most important thing is that now Zhu Ran can't wait to get rid of the entanglement and withdraw his troops back to Baqiu Water Village.

At this time, the Jiangling Navy sent a building ship to fight, are you sure you are not doing a disservice?!

Thinking of this, Zhu Ran immediately didn't care about the appearance of this building ship, and sat back and watched him sail to the middle of the battlefield, and now the most important thing for Zhu Ran to do is to return to the command position, and wait until this building ship is inserted into the center of the battlefield, and immediately gather the naval army and fleet of the department and choose to withdraw.

And then bar. Zhu Ran watched this "building ship" get closer and closer, and saw more and more clearly.

The more Zhu Ran looked at it, the more puzzled he became.

This building ship, after it entered the battlefield, why didn't it choose to cut into the battlefield, but chose to move in the direction of its own flank periphery?!

Also, this building boat doesn't seem to be very tall, how do you feel that it is nearly half shorter than Jianye's own building boat floating in the lake? !

The more Zhu Ran looked at it, the more weird it became, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something seemed to be wrong. It wasn't until Zhu Ran saw that two boulders flew out from the top of this "building ship".

This is not a building boat, this is an enlarged version of the Jiangling Navy's projection Meng Chong!!!

Two boulders shot out from the "building boat" and did not hit any warship, but only fell into the water on the right flank of the battlefield, causing a huge splash.

But the Dongwu Navy that has experienced the Jiangling Water Army's Che Meng Washing Ceremony, it is basically clear that this is the precursor of the Che Meng Chong starting to try to adjust the distance and accuracy, once it is adjusted, it goes without saying, it must be a smash and an accurate.

Zhu Ran also responded immediately, he asked the flanks to divide the troops, stop suppressing Zhong Limu's flanks, and immediately attack with the whole army, taking advantage of the fact that the warship did not fire the second stone cannon, as soon as possible to approach this "building ship" and engage in a melee jump.

Anyway, judging from the escort situation of this "building ship", there are only more than 30 guards around him, and there are not even larger warships. Dividing a fleet led by the Mengchong battleship was enough to crush the escorts.

Moreover, as long as their own fleet moves and shortens the distance between themselves and this "building ship" as soon as possible, then the threat of throwing cars installed on this "building ship" will drop a lot.

This is the lesson that Zhu Ran learned after fighting with Meng Chong, the Che of the Jiangling Water Army, so many times. 、

Sure enough, after dividing a flank consisting of a flank consisting of the Mengchong battleship and more than thirty warships, the strange "building ship" began to turn slowly, as if it was planning to turn the bow of the ship and retreat to open up the distance.

But. That's a bit too slow, isn't it?!

Zhu Ran wondered again, but then, he saw that this strange "building boat" did not move after turning to the side.

Immediately afterwards, from the side of this strange "building ship", a bunch of crossbow arrows that could be clearly seen by the naked eye suddenly shot out, directly shooting at the rapidly approaching Dongwu fleet.

This is the crossbow of the bed crossbow?!!

Well, there are bed crossbows on the building ship, which is not a new thing, and there are fixed bed crossbow shooting positions on the building ship in this era, but this is too much, right?!

According to Zhu Ran's observations, on this "building ship", there were at least sixty bed crossbow arrows shot at one time. Even if it's a triple bed crossbow, there must be at least twenty bed crossbows on this ship, right?!

That's a lot.

And soon, Zhu Ran understood. This "building ship" can not only shoot bed crossbow arrows on the surface of the ship, but also the position of the belly of the ship, with a shooting port, and crossbow arrows can be shot from that side.

Now Zhu Ran understands why this "building ship" only has a walk-in escort, and there is no such shooting method as Mengchong battleships and large and small warships, whoever wants to stand in the way, whether it is the enemy or the enemy, will be hurt indiscriminately.

Only a small boat with a height lower than the firing port and at the same time fast and agile can survive under such a "building boat".

As for this, will it reduce the defense of the "building ship" itself. Just look at the fate of the interception fleet of the Soochow Navy now.

The Mengchong battleship at the front was now almost full of bed crossbow arrows.

If the upper offensive and defensive facilities of the warship were shot, there would be no problem, but the problem now is that even the position of the Mengchong battleship, and even near the waterline, were shot by the bed crossbow arrows fired by the opponent.

The bed crossbow arrow is not a bow crossbow arrow, this thing is extremely penetrating, and the destructive power is also very large, once it is shot near the waterline, even the Mengchong warship will break, and over time, under the action of wind, waves and water pressure, the Mengchong battleship will be sunk, but it is only a matter of time.

And even the Mengchong battleships with relatively excellent defense are treated like this, and ordinary warships, large and small, basically only need to be hit by an arrow, and the warships will be completely scrapped.

In addition, the constant attacks and harassment of the Jiangling Naval Army's warships, the "Lou Boats" kept moving and changing their shooting angles, seizing the advantageous air outlet and position, and before this fleet completely approached, it was estimated that it would be shot into a sieve and the whole army would be annihilated.

In this case, Zhu Ran didn't dare to think about the consequences of letting this building ship get close to the central battlefield.

At this time, he couldn't hesitate any longer, hesitate any longer, and let Yang Wei send other Mengchong warships around the back to cut off his own back road, and there was nowhere to run if he wanted to.

Zhu Ran immediately ordered the whole army to give up the jumping melee and quickly withdraw their warships. Remove.

No matter how difficult it is, no matter whether the Gangneung naval army will follow and kill all the way, they must withdraw.

Withdraw to Baqiu Water Village.
