Chapter 744: The Battle of Chibi
Yang Zhao was at the location of the Dangyang Bridge and rebuilt the pontoon bridge.
Not long after crossing the river, they got news of Gan Ning.
Not long ago, there was a fight between the naval warships of the Gan Ning and Cao Liu coalition armies, and the current Cao Liu and others are stationed in Chibi on the south bank of the Yangtze River.
The battle of Chibi will really be fought.
Yang Zhao got the news, he was a little surprised, but soon it was not the same thing, it didn't matter if the Battle of Chibi was fought, the so-called Cao Liu coalition army was not his opponent at all, and said: "Now go to Wulin, send an order to Xingba, gather all our warships in Wulin, and prepare to give Cao Cao and Liu Bei a fatal blow!" ”
"Yes!"
The shadow man, as soon as he gets the order, goes down and makes arrangements.
Yang Zhao continued to lead the troops on the way.
They soon came to Ullin.
In the battle of Chibi, it was Wulin that burned, but the fire reflected the Chibi on the south bank, so there was a fire to burn Chibi.
Not long after coming to Wulin, Gan Ning's warship happened to sail from the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and Yang Zhao met in Wulin, directly set up the Shuizhai camp, and looked at the Cao Liu camp on the opposite bank.
Although across the Yangtze River, Yang Zhao could still see that there were countless enemy warships on the other side, and the sailor camp was far larger than his own, and it seemed that the troops were very large.
"It doesn't look like it's easy to fight!"
Zhou Yu said when he saw it.
Yang Zhao said calmly: "It's just that it doesn't look easy to fight, what their strength is, you have to fight to know, order the whole army to prepare, we will fight tomorrow, fight quickly, don't give Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and have another chance to escape." ”
It's all here, and it's time to do it quickly.
Solve them as soon as possible, and then calm the world and unify the Han rivers and mountains.
Early the next morning.
In Yang Zhao's camp, war drums sounded.
All the soldiers quickly got up, boarded the ships, and fought to the south shore.
The Cao-Liu coalition army on the south bank was shocked when they heard the sound of drums across the river, but they didn't expect Yang Zhao to come and attack him so soon after just resting for one night.
Cao Cao and Liu Bei hurriedly sent orders to go down, and the whole army gathered to resist Yang Zhao's attack.
The soldiers in the army quickly moved into action, and the warship started, leaving the shore and rushing towards Yang Zhao's warship.
As the distance between the two sides became closer and closer, the sound of the first artillery fire first came from the warship led by Gan Ning, and a fierce bombardment fell on the warship of the Cao-Liu coalition army.
Rumble!
The shells exploded, and the sound was deafening.
Cao Cao and the others also let people open fire, but the effective range of their artillery was far inferior to those on Yang Zhao's ship.
The two sides bombarded each other, and the artillery of Cao Liu's warship was basically empty.
The shells landed on the surface of the river, causing only a series of splashes.
"Rush over."
Liu Bei shouted: "All rush over, use our advantage in numbers, and knock over Yang Zhao's warship!" ”
On the main ship, the flag is waving.
When the soldiers on board saw the order, they all rushed over in disregard.
"Keep fighting!"
Yang Zhao saw that the enemy wanted to rush over, but of course he couldn't let them do it.
The herald behind him waved the command flag, and the soldiers on the other warships, after seeing the command flag, concentrated their fire on the bombardment under Gan Ning's arrangement, and even fired at the enemy's warship in front of them with machine guns.
Before the two sides got close, it was a long-range bombardment, and the fight was inextricable.
The sound of artillery fire echoed in the river.
After bombarding each other for a while, the distance between the two sides became closer and closer.
Cao Liu's artillery also entered the firing range.
"Hit, hit me hard!"
Liu Bei said fiercely.
He must sink all of Yang Zhao's warships.
"Change the formation!"
Seeing this, Yang Zhao shouted: "Xingba, you are a professional, you are in command." ”
Gan Ning rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "Okay! All obey my orders and raid on both sides......"
With Gan Ning's order, all the warships dispersed.
Their counterattack came more intensely.
The power of the warship drive is a steam engine, which is faster and the steering is flexible, and there is no pressure at all to hit Cao Liu's warship.
The water battle on the Yangtze River is becoming more and more intense.
The warships of the Cao-Liu coalition were sunk one by one.
The sound of artillery echoed, and artillery fire splashed across the river.
The whole process of confrontation lasted until the afternoon.
Only then did the two sides have a chance to stop and fight, Yang Zhao's warship fiercely rushed over, knocked over the ships of the Cao-Liu coalition army, and shot at the ones that could not be overturned.
The shooting was almost over, and there were soldiers who landed and went directly to kill.
Although the Cao-Liu coalition army had many troops and many warships, in front of Yang Zhao, they were basically crushed, and they would be defeated and retreated.
"Wen Yuan, Boping, you separate the boats, lead the troops to kill them, don't let Liu Bei and Cao Cao have a chance to escape." Yang Zhao commanded.
"Yes!"
The two of them, act quickly.
More than a dozen warships, separated from the army, went to the opposite south bank to kill.
Cao Cao and Liu Bei and others, seeing that their warships had been defeated, and the situation was very wrong, they quickly ordered a retreat, and first wanted to escape, but as soon as they landed, they had not yet gained a firm foothold on the shore, and Zhang Liao and Gao Shun had already led their troops to kill them.
"Cao Cao."
"Liu Bei."
"Where to flee?"
They shouted angrily.
The soldiers surged and killed.
Cao Liu and the others were shocked, and hurriedly sent someone to intercept them to cover their escape.
Lu Bu took the lead and wanted to block Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.
"Lu Bu, return Ding Jianyang's life!" Gao Shun shouted angrily.
When the enemy meets, he is very red-eyed.
That's what they are.
Ding Yuan's hatred, they have always remembered it in their hearts.
Soon it will be evening, when the sun goes down.
Yang Zhao's whole army forcibly landed and hit Chibi on the south bank.
The camp of the Cao-Liu coalition army was trampled and shattered by them, Cao Cao and Liu Bei couldn't stop it, so they had to retreat and escape, but to say that the ability to escape was the most powerful, it was Liu Bei.
Cao Cao and they were besieged on a mountain, Liu Bei couldn't even see the shadow, and with Pang Tong and others, they escaped at some point, and Yang Zhao could only gather forces and deal with Cao Cao first.
Cao Cao, who was besieged on the mountain, finally felt what is called despair.
The battle just now wiped out everything he had, and there were only thousands of people left around him.
The relatives around him were all panicked, not knowing what else to do, and the soldiers under him felt even more desperate than Cao Cao's.
Lu Bu hugged Ning'er, Yan hugged his daughter Lu Lingqi, sat on a stone, looking at the moon in the sky, Lu Bu was thinking, what would he do to let them live safely.
By this time, it was already evening.
The night was dark, and there was a little more terrifying feeling, which made them feel even more hopeless.
"Zhicai, what should I do?"
Cao Cao could only look at Xi Zhong, hoping that there were other plans.
Xi Zhong shook his head and said: "It's a dead end now, as long as Yang Zhao lights a fire at the bottom of the mountain, he can burn us all." ”
That is, there is no way.
Listening to Xi Zhong's words, his subordinates felt even more frightened, and Yu Ban said: "Lord, why don't we surrender?" ”
"Even if I, Cao Cao, die, I can't surrender!"
Cao Cao shouted.
Yu Ban was startled, lowered his head and stopped talking.
