Most of the stones fell from the ship, and some of them hit the ship, but they bounced off and shook violently, but they were unharmed, and the occasional damage was negligible.

Cao Xiu smiled coldly, the canopies of these small boats are made of exposed bamboo, flexible and elastic, unless more than 100 catties of boulders are dropped, they may be smashed on the ground, but they are intact on the water, and these small stones are useless at all.

There was a sound above the water, the waves rolling, the water splashing, but the ships fell steadily to the surface of the water after beating violently, and continued to rush forward.

Originally, in order to prevent the soldiers from being unskilled, the craftsmen installed belts on each seat in the cabin, which were connected to the hull of the ship, and fixed the sailors, unless the ship capsized, and the soldiers sat on it without moving.

The catapult started slowly, and after a round of stone rain, the ship had already ridden the wind and waves, and hit the building ship fiercely, as before, the bottom of the ship was not badly damaged, and the large ship was connected by iron cables, and the whole line of defense was immovable.

"You don't have to shoot arrows!" Zhou Tai saw that the Wei army's offensive was so monotonous, and the big ship was still watching from the rear, and shouted: "Take the bait!" ”

I saw that on the top of those building boats, fishing nets and hooks and cables were thrown down one by one, and the ships around the big boats were still crowded together, hung by hooks and cables, and dragged to the rear.

Seeing the size of Wu Bing, Cao Xiu's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Set fire to the boat!" ”

The flag waved, and a hundred dragon boat-like boats rowed the waves, and the bow of the boat emitted black smoke, like a dragon swallowing clouds and spitting mist, rushing straight towards the opposite building boat.

These ships were also modeled after the letter ships of Soochow, with barbs in the bow and a cabin filled with hay and oil, which were attached to the ships after colliding with them, and the soldiers could disassemble the bow and evacuate quickly.

Plumes of smoke drifted down the wind, and soon filled the river, and the speed of the small boat was faster than that of the ship, and in a blink of an eye, the catapult on the Wu army's ship also began to start, and the boulder fell from the sky.

The smoke and mist filled the water, hiding the small boats, only to see the burning fire rushing to the bottom of the building, and the flames flew in the sound of impact, although they were doused by the water a lot, but the surroundings were already burning.

"Good, good burn!" When Xiahou Nan saw it in the rear, he clapped his hands excitedly and shouted: "Burn, burn him quickly!" ”

Cao Xiu only relieved his mind at this time, and sneered: "Liu Qi dares to use a serial boat, and he can't attack with fire?" ”

At this time, Cao Yong had already led the building ship to approach forward, and the remaining small boats were guarded left and right, as long as they took advantage of the chaos to kill the front, fired random arrows, and then burned the sails with fire arrows, they could board the ship and fight.

When the Wei convoy was moving, it saw that the Wu army was not in a hurry, and actually untied the iron chains on the side of the ship, and with a series of rattling sounds, the iron cables were quickly untied and coiled around the side of the ship like an anchor.

At the same time, the ships and small boats hidden in the rear set out, and each followed the big ship in formation, extinguishing the fire at the bottom of the ship, but only burning the bamboo pieces on the periphery.

Fifty building ships spread out to the two wings, forming a pocket array in the blink of an eye, surrounding the rushing Wei fleet in the middle, and it was too late to turn around at this time.

"Hahaha, you are all turtles in the urn!" Seeing that the formation had been completed, Zhou Tai raised his gun and shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

On the two rows of building ships, crossbows and arrows were fired together, mixed with the attack of catapults, and the rain of arrows in the sky was sprinkled on the big ships of the Wei army, and the boulders fell down, and the large and small ships could not be avoided.

"Defense, counterattack!" Cao Yong was in a desperate situation and had to grit his teeth and give an order to fight to the death.

On the side of the ship, the Wei army raised their large shields, and archers and catapults also launched a counterattack, but the overwhelming rain of arrows and stones fell, and many people were scrambling, and a large number of people were killed and wounded.

After the rain of arrows, there was another round of fire arrows, and the flames fell into the ship dottedly, the sails caught fire in an instant, and the Wei ships lost control, and the soldiers fled with screams, completely chaotic.

Bang bang bang –

Two rounds of cross strikes, the Wei fleet was huddled together, unable to advance or retreat, at this time the Wu army launched an attack, crashed into the big ship, the navy attacked the surrounding boats, a scream.

The Wei army had only ten ships, surrounded by fifty large ships of the Wu army, the sails were destroyed, the bottom of the ship was leaking, and it was almost paralyzed.

Zhou Tai stood proudly on the bow of the ship, and when the two ships collided, he led his troops across the side of the ship, boarded the Wei ship, and slaughtered the panicked enemy troops one by one, and there was no enemy in the place where they passed.

Although the Wei army has been training for three years, most of them are coordinated by the fleet, and on the rocking warship, in the face of the Wu army that grew up in the water since childhood, hand-to-hand combat cannot take advantage at all.

Zhou Tai is a battle-hardened general, how many times he has been born and died, he is very brave, even if Cao Xiu is in person, it is difficult to resist, where are these little soldiers who are opponents, and in a blink of an eye, they rushed to the command ship on the third floor.

At this time, the big ship of the Wei army had begun to be filled with water, the rockets were hanging on the sails, the fire was raging, the smoke was billowing out, the Wei army panicked, ran away from each other, and there were shouts and screams everywhere, and Cao Yong could not command at all.

was about to retreat out of the cabin, and when he saw Zhou Tai killed, he raised his knife to resist, but only Sanhe was stabbed in the center by a shot, and the corpse flew and fell into the water.

"Ahh Xiahou Nan was dumbfounded, and muttered: "It turns out that the iron lock can still be made into a live buckle......"

"How can it be reasonable to bully more and less!" Cao Xiu's eyes were split, and he was about to give the order for the whole army to attack, when he suddenly heard a rapid sound of gold behind him, and he became more and more annoyed, and shouted: "Who gave the order without authorization? ”

The soldiers on the left and right looked at each other, all of them were incomprehensible, so the sound of Mingjin came from the rear village, and I don't know who dared to be so bold.

At this time, the Wei army had already seen that they were frightened, and when they heard the order to retreat, they turned their bows and retreated to the depths of Fuling Lake.

Xiahou Nan looked at the billowing smoke on the river, and the five thousand sailors were abandoned like this, frowning: "Could it be that General Wen did it?" ”

Cao Xiu said angrily: "Bastard, if you dare to pass on the general's order, you will definitely behead him to show the public." ”

Xiahou Nan hurriedly persuaded: "The general is angry, Wen Qin's father has made great contributions, and the prime minister accepted Wen Qin as his righteous son." Suddenly, there may be something in the camp, and you can only arrest and ask for the crime, not kill immediately. ”

Cao Xiu was so angry that he drew his sword and slashed at the side of the ship: "Even if there is something, you should send someone to report it, how can you disturb the hearts of our army, if you don't kill this thief, I swear not to be a person." ”

The sound of fighting on the Huai River gradually became smaller, the large and small ships were destroyed by the Wu army, and the Wei army was surrounded by building boats, although it was not clear what the situation was, but it was also expected that the whole army would be annihilated, and the first battle was defeated by this disastrous, which was a great shame for Cao Xiu.

When the fleet returned to Shuizhai and saw that the village was safe and sound, there was no movement, Cao Xiu became more and more angry, and all his anger was sprinkled on Wen Qin.

Before the ship docked and stopped, he jumped off the boat and shouted: "Wenqin dog thief, I am the day / you...... Cheng Cheng Cheng, Cheng Cheng, Prime Minister? ”
