Chapter Seventy-One: The Building Ship Destroys the Enemy
Chapter Seventy-One: The Building Ship Destroys the Enemy
In the big tent, Wang Jun sat in the middle, dressed in plain armor, and looked even more heroic. Behind him, there is a festival that symbolizes the imperial power, although his official position is not the highest at the moment, but with these two things, he can control all the people on the battlefield in Yizhou.
Giving him this power is what Kong Ming and I share. This time, the attack on Zhuge and his son with a building ship was to prepare for his attack on Soochow with a building ship in the future. Although Ji Han has a lot of good friends, but in the confrontation with Eastern Wu, the water war must be the first, Feng Xi and Zhang Nan are both old, Wang Jun is the well-known future successor of the water army, and the battle of Yizhou is a test for him. Elite soldiers are strong, and with more strikes and fewer blows, it depends on whether he has the ability to do so.
At this time, Yizhou Thorn Shi Ma Liang, General Chen Dao, Xiang Pet, Vulture Bone, Zhang Nan, Captain Zhang Bao, Li Feng, and Bajun Taishou Pet Hong and others were all sitting on the side.
Wang Jun was not afraid of this group of people who were bigger than his official position, he smiled slightly, and said, "Generals! His Majesty sent me a heavy responsibility, appointed me as the deputy governor of the navy, awarded me a thrift, and sent me to Yizhou. Wang Jun is young and shallow, and he is ashamed. However, the battle of Yizhou is related to the foundation of Ji Han, the rise and fall of Sheji, and the heavy burden of Wanjun is placed on the princes here. On weekdays, the princes, or Wang Jun's predecessors, or Wang Jun's teacher, the worst, are also at the same level as Wang Jun, ordinary interactions, words are not taboo, but all things in the army, the first important order, words must be practiced, orders must be done, rewards must be believed, and punishments must be punished, Wang Jun's orders are on behalf of the sky, the princes can not be heavy on Wang Jun, but must be heavy on the sky, must be heavy on Ji Han, and must be heavy on His Majesty's great cause! ”
Although everyone knew that Wang Jun was not a thing in the pool, he would definitely replace the aging Feng Xi and Zhang Nan to become the first people in the Ji Han Navy. But he didn't expect him to take over the Yizhou battlefield so early. However, at this time, he did not say anything else, after all, Wang Jun had broken the Sima Wang Dam in Chang'an City, cut off Sima Yi's army, and made great contributions to the Weinan War. At the time of Meng Huo's rebellion, it was he who fought thousands of miles and rescued the main force of Xiang Chong, which changed the situation on the entire Yizhou battlefield. In the end, Meng was cornered. He can be regarded as a high level of merit, and few people can match it. In addition, he is a disciple of the prime minister. His Majesty's friend, who is thoughtful and decisive, is not much controversial at this time as the deputy governor of the navy to command the coordinated operations of the Yizhou water and land armies.
Xiang Zhong smiled and said, "Don't worry, since Your Majesty has entrusted you with a great responsibility, you will act on behalf of the heavens." Yizhou hundred officials, all obey! ”
Wang Jun has a life-saving grace for Xiang Pet, Xiang Pet is the governor of the army, and he is highly respected in Yizhou, he speaks. That is, it represents the Yizhou troops.
The vulture also said: "Your Majesty and Xiangye let whoever takes the lead, whoever speaks well, and there is no need to turn so many corners." ”
Wang Jun was most worried about the vulture bones, thinking that he was the master of a department. He also has a good friendship with Wang Jun's father-in-law Zhang Fei, and he is considered an elder. If he refuses to obey the order, he will have to use a means to get a radical law and so on. He didn't expect that the barbarians had always been the heaviest generals, and all ministries would join the alliance, as long as the alliance leader was launched, no matter how low the alliance leader's ability was. No matter how young you are, you must obey the whole army, and there will be no objections.
The veteran Chen Zhi on the side saw Xiang Pet and Wutu Gu, and also laughed: "You little ghost, just talk about how to fight well, you are not Zhou Gongjin, and we are not Cheng Pu." "Zhou Yu was handsome back then, and Cheng Pu was not satisfied with his age and qualifications. Later, I heard what Zhou Yu did. That's what I respected. Chen said a word, but Wang Jun laughed. Originally, he was afraid that he would not be able to control the situation in Yizhou. On the contrary, the good situation was destroyed because of himself, and at this time, he knew that His Majesty and the Prime Minister had already arranged everything, and it seemed that except for his eldest brother, no one else really raised objections.
"In this way, Wang Jun thanked everyone. In the battle with Dongwu, Zhuge father and son came to Yizhou in person, but there were no reinforcements in the follow-up, which seemed to be as if Dongwu had no long-term plan in advance. At present, our army has quietly increased its troops, not only Zhang Bao Guan Xing and others came, but also because Zhuge Qiao dragged Lu Xun, the flying army that was originally in Hanzhong to rescue Zhuge Qiao also came to Yizhou, plus the building ship that I have never fought with, the number of men and horses is nearly twice that of Dongwu. In this battle, we not only want to defeat Dongwu, but also leave all Zhuge father and son in Yizhou, and we can't let them go. Tomorrow's war, I plan to ...... like this."
Through the fog, Ji Han's navy, under the leadership of Zhang Nan, quietly approached Dongwu Water Village. The rest of the sergeants, under the personal leadership of Wang Jundi, quietly sailed towards Jiangxin.
Zhang Nan's attack went smoothly all the way, and it was not until the edge of the Dongwu Water Village that the Dongwu army probed the outpost and found out. All of a sudden, the golden drums of the water village and the dry village sounded in unison. The two sides exchanged bows and arrows, and fought in one place.
When Zhuge Ke heard the report, he sneered: "I'm afraid that they won't fight with me and waste our army's food and grass." They actually dared to take the initiative to challenge me, and they were in my heart. Attention of all departments, prepare to attack! Although the Wu army did not have time to take precautions, it was also well-trained, did not panic, and went out to meet the enemy according to the order.
At this time, the fog was thick, and the shore was also white, only the shouts of the Ji Han army were heard, and the roaring fire rose from the camp that was ignited by the Ji Han army's rockets. Completely unexpected, in this battle, the Ji Han naval army, which had never dared to confront Dongwu, was dispatched again, and its powerful offensive was by no means under Dongwu. Ji Hanxiang is famous for his bow and arrows, this time Ji Han seemed to want those arrows to shoot down all over the world, so that the Wu army who could not take precautions trembled, and in the darkness and fog, I don't know how many enemies came, and the forward line actually began to panic.
Zhuge Ke suddenly woke up to the fact that the Han army's offensive was so strong, could it be that the legendary Lou ship was dispatched? He only heard the name of the building ship, but he had never seen what the building ship was like, today's first battle, the enemy army came by the battle, the attack was sharp, but it was also necessary to guard against it. At that moment, Zhuge Ke ordered the ship to dock, defend carefully, and return fire with bows and arrows to prevent the Ji Han army from attacking the water village. Lu Zhai took precautions carefully to prevent the Ji Han army from rushing to the beach. Just wait for dawn before attacking.
Time passed little by little, and Ji Han's attack became weaker and weaker.
The sky was getting brighter, the fog was gradually dissipating, and suddenly, there was a loud bang from Ji Han's military, followed by countless people shouting urgently, and their voices were panicked. The former army came to report: "My lord! Ji Hanlou's ship ran aground! ”
Zhuge Ke was taken aback, and then overjoyed. He was only afraid of deception. At that moment, he ordered the navy to attack, and he personally went to the bow of the ship to watch, and after a short walk, he saw that in the shallow area ahead, a huge ship was half lying on its side, and it was stopped there, unable to move. There were quite a few soldiers up and down there, busy going back and forth. But with such a huge ship resting in the center of the river, it would not be easy to move.
In fact, speaking of the shoals here, it is not shallow, in the past, large and small ships were not hindered, but Ji Han's ship was too big, and it was actually set up there, unable to advance or retreat, and he was embarrassed for a while.
Zhuge Ke was overjoyed. This building ship is said to have been built by Ji Han after several years and combined with Cao Wei's technology, and it is so powerful that it can be called the overlord in the water, and it is stranded today. If it is snatched down and transported back to Soochow for research and imitation, the combat strength of the Soochow Navy will reach a new level. This kind of merit is by no means inferior to the siege of cities and land. Zhuge Ke shouted loudly: "The whole army stepped forward to snatch the boat downstairs. "He was originally a man with a very loud voice, and at this time, under the joy, the voice was only like thunder.
The Wu army moved in response to the order, the gate of the Shuizhai camp was opened, and the warships were lined up, like a swimming dragon out of the water, divided into two roads. Pounce on the Han army.
The Han army was even more panicked, firing arrows while resisting. However, except for this building ship, the rest of the ships of the Han army were all under Zhang Nan, and they were defeated by Zhuge Ke several times, where could they resist the enemy.
On the building boat, the Han army jumped on the boat and fled, and in the blink of an eye, the Wu boat had approached. Wu Jun was overjoyed and shouted in unison. Row hard.
Seeing the ship fall into his own hands. Zhuge Ke suddenly had a warning in his heart: No, I have heard that Wang Junzhi has only obtained the true biography of the second uncle for a long time. How could a huge ship built over the years be easily stranded? He had fought with the Han army, and knew that although the Han army was weak, it was extremely bloody, and often fought to the death. This time, for such an important land, the ship actually escaped after only a little resistance, no, there is fraud in it!
Although he didn't know what the deception was, Zhuge Ke believed that there must be a great crisis at the ship. For a while, reason suppressed the urge to take merit, could it be that there was some ambush at the ship? When he looked around, the four fields were silent, and unless the enemy was hiding in the water, it would be impossible to hide from his eyes.
However, he immediately gave the order, stopped the attack, switched to a defensive formation, and slowly retreated!
However, he still did not calculate the source of the danger, which did not come from the ship, but from the waters around the ship! The Dongwu ship is in the water, but it is not possible to stop if you want to, and the Wu army began to rush towards the building boat, but I am afraid that it will not be able to take credit if it is slow, so it is required to stop at this time, but under the action of inertia, it is still rushing forward. I only heard the loud roar, and in front, the Soochow warships close to the building ship swayed one after another.
Wu Jun shouted: "There are hidden piles underwater!" ”
"Oh no, we were fooled, the boat broke into the water!"
"The oars are entangled in something!"
"Help!"
It was a mess for a while.
However, it was Wang Jun who lured the enemy with a "building boat", pretended to run aground, and led the Wu army to attack, but set up an iron cone fishing net array at the shoals in advance. The iron cone is Yizhou craftsmen spend half a year to build, Yizhou has produced high-quality weapons, plus the world's first casting master Pu Yuan personally led, these iron cones are as long as a zhang, extremely sharp, lying underwater, when the Wu army attacked, was pierced the hull, when boarding into the water, the smaller ship capsized in a blink of an eye, and the big one was also ineffective. Although others have avoided the iron cone, there are still a lot of fishing nets underwater, which are entangled in the oars and rudders, making it difficult to move, and it is very embarrassing for a while.
At the same time, Ji Hanjun's real building ship appeared in the fog upstream. Although there are only two ships on this floor, it is like a huge fortress, with five floors high, six zhang wide, more than 30 zhang long, and the front of the bow is the collision wood caused by the giant wood that two people hug, and the boat will inevitably be stopped and broken into two when it encounters it. The average hull out of the water is more than two zhang, the highest point reaches eight zhang, the hull is huge, the deck can gallop and run horses, the female wall is set around, the battlements are densely covered with rows and rows of archers, and each floor, each opens the window, and then there is a circle of archers, up and down five floors, densely covered with more than 1,000 archers. Thirteen artillery carts were placed in the bow, huge stones were placed next to them, and the hull was covered with felt leather in each vulnerable area to prevent fire. The top pole is a big sword, and it is written "The Deputy Governor of the Ji Han Water Army".
Zhuge Ke gasped, Dongwu is not without a big ship, but compared with this ship, the big ship of Dongwu has become a grandson, where is this ship, it is clearly driving a city and rushing over!
Ji Han is not only highly skilled, but also really rich! No wonder it takes a few years to build such a ship!
The hill-like building boat shocked everyone in the two armies, and then, there was a huge cheer from the Han army, and the Eastern Wu army horses were extremely depressed. The Wu army, which has always been proud of its navy and warships, was hit by this blow, and all of them were like mourners.
Zhuge Ke shouted: "Retreat, the archers are ready to meet the enemy!" ”
At this moment, on the side of the ship, many small warships poured out, rushing towards the Wu army like wolves, and with the help of water power, rushed towards the Wu army, which had not fallen into the iron cone formation and was hurriedly turning back. At this time, the Wu army was changing its formation, and it was attacked when it boarded, and the bow of those warships was wrapped with fine iron, which could cause the Wu army's warships to suffer heavy losses under a collision. And Zhang Nan personally commanded these small warships under the cover of the Ji Han army's ships, like wolves to bite the warships of the Wu army, from time to time to see the warships of the two armies sunken in the river, and the soldiers who fell into the water had almost no possibility of being saved, because the enemy's arrows would ruthlessly shoot through their bodies, the river was stained with blood, and the wreckage of the warships flowed eastward along the river. At the same time, the huge building ship rushed into the battle formation like a tiger into a wolf pack, and the cannon stone accurately fell into the battle formation of the Eastern Wu Land, as long as it hit, the ship immediately formed a big hole, and the river water poured in. And the overwhelming rain of arrows caused Wu Jun to suffer heavy casualties, and all of them became dead in the place of an arrow on the side of the ship.
was first deceived into the iron cone fishing net array, and then was hit by the building ship and the iron head ship that broke into the formation, and the panic and the huge psychological pressure brought by the building boat made the Dongwu naval army have no fighting spirit at all, and they are unable to defend at all, let alone counterattack. All they did was find a way to escape from the waters of death.
At this time, it was as if history was repeating itself, and the situation was exactly the same as Zhuge Ke's wanton attack on Zhangnan's naval army a year ago, except that the side that screamed and screamed was replaced by Eastern Wu.
The naval army of Eastern Wu had given up the possibility of defeating the land, and the ships that reluctantly fled back to the ground only defended the water village tightly, preventing the Ji Han army from breaking through the village. Although the infantry of the Wu army could not fight in water, they could still shoot arrows in the dry village. Zhuge Ke's heart was full of bitterness at this time. He thought of possible failure, but he never thought that he would be defeated in the navy, let alone that he would lose so badly.
After this battle, his future and fate are already doomed.
