Although Cai Mao is a straw bale, the Jingzhou Navy is also well-trained, and it is the elite of selection, and the fleet is like an arm, under the mobilization of Gan Ning, like two dragons out of the water, neatly leaving a wonderful arc on the lake, directly copying to the flank of the thief army.

"Shoot the arrows!" The fleets of both sides approached, and the commander of the command shouted loudly.

The sailors had already drawn their bows and arrows, and when the fleet approached rapidly, they heard the sound of bowstrings, and the arrows were shot at the enemy ships like locusts.

The thieves were not slow to react, and they all got into the bamboo cabins, and only a few of them were unfortunately hit by arrows and fell into the water screaming.

"Ge Laozi!" Gan Ning looked at this scene and frowned.

Only then did I understand that those bamboo cabins were not used to take advantage of the cold, but to avoid bows and arrows, and it seemed that the thieves had long been familiar with the combat methods of officers and soldiers.

At the same time, the thieves also launched a counterattack, and the large and small ships fired arrows in unison, and the officers and soldiers covered them with shields.

Gan Ning was about to use fire arrows, but when he saw that the spirit dragon ship had approached rapidly, the thief army condescendingly released the arrows, and the shield could not cover the arrows, and the sailors were completely exposed to the thieves' arrows.

The Lingjiao boat was three times higher than the ships of the officers and men, and before the officers and men raised their heads to return fire, they were shot in the face by the rain of arrows from the sky, and they fell to the ground screaming, and they had no power to fight back.

A rain of arrows fell, and the sailors on the ship screamed miserably, blocking upwards, and the thieves on the small boats around continued to shoot arrows, covering the surroundings, they were the arrow targets on the big ship, and they couldn't cover it at all.

At this time, the outflanked fleet had reached the two wings, but unexpectedly, the Lingjiao boat stopped as soon as it said stop, and actually turned around in the lake, adjusted the direction and followed, and the flotilla on both wings was completely suppressed.

Gan Ning was furious when he saw this, raised his knife and shouted: "Let's go!" ”

The sailors shook their oars vigorously, and the officers and soldiers of the building ship moved forward quickly, approaching the big boat on the left, and the soldiers on the building boat released arrows one after another, and the thieves on the small boat could not resist either, and many ships were even smashed to pieces, and the thieves fell into the water.

At this time, the captain also crashed into the thief ship, hand-to-hand combat, the advantage of well-trained officers and soldiers was fully displayed, the archers alternately released arrows, the arrow rain did not stop for a moment, and the thief army wanted to fight back and could not find a chance at all, so they could only hide in the cabin.

At this time, Gan Ning drove the boat to the front, and some soldiers jumped on the enemy boat, and the thieves were in close contact, killing the thieves and some were forced to jump into the lake.

Seeing that it couldn't be resisted, the thief ship immediately turned its bow and rowed towards the back of the Lingjiao ship, and one of the big ships turned its wheels and rushed straight towards the building ship.

Gan Ning sank like water on the bow of the ship, raised his shield, and the squadron of warships launched an attack on the spirit ship from the flank.

The bow of each ship is equipped with an iron cone or an iron-headed wooden vertebrae, and their main function is to ram the enemy ship, smashing or knocking the enemy ship over with a strong impact.

Bang bang bang –

The stern slammed into the spirit ship, but the big ship shook for a while, but it still rushed steadily, and the warp was knocked back upside down, and some even broke the bow.

"So sturdy?" Gan Ning's eyes were slightly cold, and he couldn't imagine that the bottom of the ship could block the impact of the iron tip.

But at this time, he was no longer allowed to think about it, the spirit boat broke the waves, the waves rolled, and all the ships were undulating and shaking violently.

Gan Ning was still standing firmly on the boat, the archers on both sides of the ship took the lead in attacking, countless arrows rained down from the sky, only the sound of breaking wind was heard in his ears, and a layer of arrows fell on the surface of the ship under his feet in an instant.

Bang –

The two big ships collided, as if the sky was falling apart, the water splashed several feet high, and the water mist formed a rainbow in the hot sun.

Gan Ning roared and jumped on the undulating bow of the ship, as if he was stepping on that rainbow, jumping directly towards the enemy ship.

At this time, the building boat was knocked out of the water and thrown backwards, and the spirit boat also retreated, but under the rotation of the water wheel, it quickly stabilized the hull and prepared to launch a second impact.

Liu Qi could see clearly from the lookout that the thief army's Lingjiao boat was not only tall and stable, but also very solid at the bottom.

At this time, Gan Ning had already boarded the enemy ship, followed by more than a dozen guards, all of whom had been fighting side by side with him for many years, all of them were strong in martial arts, and took advantage of the chaos to kill directly to the cabin.

The thieves on the ship couldn't imagine that someone could kill them, and in the blink of an eye, Gan Ning killed several people, and the thieves in the front cabin were suddenly in chaos, shouting to help in the battle.

The thieves who drove the boat did not know what was going on on the bow of the boat, and they were able to dodge the impact of the boat, but after the second impact, the boat of the officers and men suddenly tilted, and the water poured into the cabin and slowly sank to the bottom of the lake.

The captain and the sailboat hurriedly stepped forward to meet the sailors on board, and the thieves took the opportunity to release their arrows, and there were screams again, and the water turned red in a blink of an eye, and it was a mess.

Knock Knock Knock –

Liu Qi was watching the battle, and suddenly heard a muffled sound from the bottom of the water, and suddenly his expression was terrified, and he shouted: "Someone is scuttling the boat, get into the water quickly!" ”

Gan Ning had already left the navy to protect him, all wearing fish skin and water, holding a water thorn in his hand, and jumped into the water when he heard the order, and soon saw a string of blood-red blisters constantly emerging from the bottom of the water, and the two armies fought at the bottom of the lake.

At this time, another spirit boat of the thief army rushed over, cutting Gan Ning in half, and countless ships were smashed into pieces, arrows rained everywhere they passed, and countless soldiers were killed and wounded.

And Gan Ning boarded the flying fish ship, the fleet was uncommanded, and it was even more chaotic, and the thief boat behind took the opportunity to rush over, and the naval fleet was in chaos, with countless casualties.

"Mingjin!" Liu Qi saw that the situation was not good, and Gan Ning didn't know what the situation was, so he had to give the order to retreat first.

Huang Zhong and Yang Ling led the fleet to cover from both flanks, and the only five building ships were all dispatched and lay across the middle of the lake to prevent the thief fleet from rushing over.

Ding Ding Ding –

The crisp sound of gold resounded across the lake, and the officers and soldiers who fought chaotically snatched the boats, drove the boats to slide hard, and retreated backwards.

Huang Zhong stood on the bow of the boat, stretched his ape arms, stretched his bow and arrows, aimed at the thieves on the Lingjiao ship and kept firing arrows, and several people screamed and fell to the ground in an instant.

As Huang Zhong shot another arrow, it was shooting directly at the mast of the big ship, and the flag on the bow of the ship fell with the sail hula.

Although the power of the Lingjiao ship does not depend entirely on the sails, but at this time, the wind is strong, and the hull of the ship shakes violently, swinging from side to side in the lake, and the thieves who are standing on a high place laughing and firing arrows are in an uproar and hide in the cabin one after another.

Fortunately, those water thieves are also experienced, and when they stepped on the water wheel, they quickly stabilized the hull of the boat and stopped abruptly on the lake, only to see the turbid waves rolling and the hull undulating.

But the small boats around that couldn't hold back rushed straight to the front of the officers and soldiers, and Yang Ling had already prepared rockets on the boat, and at the sound of an order, the fire and arrows were fired in unison.

The bamboo cabins of the thieves are made of sun-dried bamboo chips, which ignite immediately when they meet the fire, and in an instant the ships will catch fire, and the thieves will scream and jump into the water to escape.

The deterrence of Huang Zhong's archers, coupled with the threat of fire arrows, the flames and the black smoke that swirled around made the thief army realize that the situation was not good, and they slid around in a long distance and walked away.

But the other spirit boat was circling in the middle of the lake, neither rushing forward nor retreating, and countless thief ships around it were guarding the surroundings, for unknown reasons.
