Chapter 340: All the heroes (17)

After flowing down the Wangcheng Water Village, we only reached the water surface of Sanjiangkou. The water flows slowly and the water surface is wide. It is the place where the black-faced Yang Lehe dreams of the decisive battle.

After coming out of Wuping Water Village, we went upstream. We reached the water surface of Sanjiangkou after less than a mile. The water flow here is slow, which greatly reduced the impact of the Great Zhou warships downstream. The southeast wind is still strong. Sanjiangkou is the ideal decisive battle location for the Wuping Navy Yang Shiling.

Yang Lehe and Yang Shiling each made plans and both designated Sanjiangkou as the place of decisive battle.

As the sky was dawn, the warships of Wangcheng Water Village and Wuping Water Village all drove out their respective water villages one after another. When the fog on the river surface was gone, two fleets clearly appeared on the river surface.

Black-faced Yang Lehe looked at the dense Wuping warship and said to Chen Huaijing beside him: "Yang Shiling and I have been fighting for more than ten years, and today there is finally a break. The Sanjiangkou is the burial place of Wuping Navy."

Chen Huaijing once served as a lobbyist for the Yangtze River Navy. Although the two countries have never killed the envoys when they fight, they still have many dangers to deliberately stimulate Yang Shiling. After Chen Huaijing came back from his mission, Yang Lehe couldn't help but admire his courage. He cherishes heroes and becomes more intimate with him.

Yang Lehe and Chen Huaijing have always been worried that the Wuping Navy Army would retreat to avoid the war, so they used a small team of warships as bait, and sent people to spread rumors among the refugees in Lizhou, using various methods to tempt the Wuping Navy to force the Wuping Navy to fight the Yangtze River Navy.

Now, this goal has been achieved.

Yang Lehe looked at the Wuping warships that were being mobilized and said regretfully: "Liu Chunshan is also a powerful general. After annihilation of the Wuping army, he will use Yang Shiling's head to pay tribute to Liu Chunshan."

The head coach of the Wuping Naval Division, Yang Shiling, was standing on Yu Huang's boat, looking at the Yangtze River Naval Division opposite.

The formation of the Yangtze River Navy is really strange, and all the Xuanlong ships are lined up in a row. The Xuanlong ship is lined up in a row before the Xuanlong ship, and the snake ship is in front of the Xuanlong ship. This method of setting up the formation is unprecedented in the Yangtze River water battle.

Yang Shiling breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Zhang Jingding is right. The Great Zhou navy is not as good as before. Yang Lehe is also a veteran. How could he disembarrass such a clumsy formation?"

Chen Mi stood beside him and looked at the formation of the Yangtze River Navy. The depressed expression on his face dissipated a little. He smiled rarely, saying: "Now, the commander of the Black Eagle Army of Dazhou is Hou Dayong, who is in control of real power. Chen Huaijing is the special envoy he sent to the Great Zhou Navy. Judging from the situation that day, the actual commander of the Navy was Chen Huaijing. He is a civil servant, how can he know how to command the Yangtze River Navy?"

"The Yangtze River Navy is also an elite navy. Now that a civil servant is tortured into such a state, it is really unexpected." When Yang Shiling said this, he suddenly thought of the open and secret struggle between the Yang family and the Zhang family in Wuping. He sighed and said, "Brothers are united, and they are able to cut off gold and estrange themselves from the walls of brothers. It makes the relatives feel sad and the enemy is happy. The family is like this, the country is like this, Wuping is like this, and the Zhou army is like this."

As he spoke, the southeast wind had already risen, and the thick morning fog suddenly disappeared completely. The sunlight was like a flying crossbow in the Western Shu. It pierced the sky with holes and rushed straight to the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River and the surrounding scenery suddenly became brighter.

Yang Shiling pointed to the warship where Yang Lehe of Zhou was located and said, "The Zhou army set up a long snake formation on the Yangtze River, and the head and tail were completely unable to take into account both the head and tail. The middle was extremely weak. To capture the thief, we will first capture the king. Let's concentrate our efforts to take Yang Lehe directly."

The Wuping warship flag was waving. The war drums sounded as they shook the sky, and the Wuping navy had begun to change its formation. More than a dozen Yuhuang ships had begun to move. Their target was Yang Le and the Central Army who were extremely eye-catching in the sun.

The black-faced Yang Lehe supported the bow of the ship and quietly looked at the Wuping Navy opposite. After the Wuping envoy issued the war letter, all the Xuanlong ships and Xuanjiao ships were fully prepared. Countless round stones and specially made pottery jars were transported to the ship. The Western Shu crossbows were also inspected and maintained a good condition that could be fired at any time.

The Yangtze River Navy, who arrived at the Sanjiangkou, had a total of five Xuanlong ships, totaling 2,000 troops, twenty-five Xuanlong ships, totaling 2,500 troops, and fifty snake ships, totaling more than 500 troops. On the Xuanlong ship, in addition to the large catapult cart on the bow, a medium catapult cart was installed on the third floor deck. On the Xuanlong ship, a small catapult cart was added to the second deck. The large, medium and small catapult carts among the Zhou army's naval divisions reached 60.

Cats are always available, and harsh tinder is also common, but the concentrated use of catapults in water wars on a large scale is the latest tactical idea. Yang Lehe used the Wuping Navy's lack of understanding of new tactics, new weapons, and new tactics, and concentrated all catapults to give Wuping Navy a destructive blow from a long distance.

When the Wuping Navy began to move, a calm-looking Yang Lehe's eyes burst into a fever, and he kept shouting: "Trial casting chariot."

The Xuanjiao Ship is equipped with a medium-sized catapult car, and the Xuanlong Ship is equipped with a large catapult car. The two are not the same at the farthest distance. However, on the surface of the Sanjiangkou, the Wuping navy is both at the range of the Xuanlong Ship and the Xuanjiao Ship.

The first wave of catapults launched all the round stones on the washbasin ground, and according to the pre-war arrangements, they were all aimed at the Yuhuang ship in the middle. From the common sense of water war, the main generals were generally concentrated in the middle and in the middle, and the order flags and other orders were more likely to be seen by other ships.

Two round stones flew from the air, carrying a sharp whistling. The two round stones were fired from the Xuanjiao Ship and the Xuanlong Ship respectively, with the purpose of correcting the shooting distance for other ships.

There are 16 Yuhuang ships in the Wuping Army Water Village. They do not have medium-sized warships like Xuanjiao Ship. In addition to Yuhuang Ship, the battle formation is nearly 100 Maotu ships, which is also Yang Shiling's capital.

A round stone rubbed against a Yu Huang ship and fell into the water. It made a loud "bang" sound, and a splash of water hit the side of the Yu Huang ship with a "bang". The other round stone happened to hit a Mao Tu ship. The round stone fell from the sky and its power was so great that although it did not hurt people, it punched a hole as big as a millstone at the bottom of the Mao Tu ship, and the river water immediately surged up.

Yang Shiling was startled and asked anxiously: "Is there a catapult on the captured Zhou army warship?" Chen Mi shook his head and said, "No." He thought to himself: "No wonder Zhou army blindfolded his eyes. It turned out that he didn't want me to see the catapult on the ship."

The first projection of the Zhou army had already shocked Yang Shiling and sweated. He reacted quickly and immediately ordered: "Go forward at full speed and approach the Zhou army." The messenger kept waving the flag of advancing at full speed.

The catapults on the Zhou army warship were well-trained. They adjusted the angle slightly and began to project. Thirty-three round stones attacked the Yuhuang warship where Yang Shiling was like flowers scattered. The warship where Yang Shiling was located was located in the middle of the entire fleet. In this wave of round stone attacks, two round stones hit the deck of Yuhuang ship. The Yuhuang deck was extremely thick, and for the sake of three layers, the round stone penetrated the upper deck, smashing a Wuping sergeant into meat slurry. However, the round stones were exhausted and could not break the second deck.

Chen Mi hurriedly pulled Yang Shiling and said, "Master, go to the lower level to avoid it." Yang Shiling shook Chen Mi away and said, "How to command when going down, check the loss."

This wave of catapulted attacks destroyed six Maotu ships, and four other Yuhuang ships were slightly injured. Seeing that the losses were not serious, Yang Shiling felt relieved and said, "The Zhou army's skills are nothing but this, continue to attack."

Chen Huaijing and Yang Lehe stood side by side at the bow of the ship. Chen Huaijing grabbed the side of the ship with his hands, his fingers were white. In the wind, Yang Lehe's black face was as painted as paint and shiny as black. All his wrinkles gathered together, forming one deep gullies after another, and suddenly ordered: "Flame-dropping bomb." Yang Le's harmony was as loud as thunder, almost catching up with the Thunder God in the Black Eagle Army. The three words "Flame-dropping bomb" shocked Chen Huaijing's ears buzzed.

Although the southeast wind was very strong, the felt wrapped in the clay pot was soaked with hot tinder oil. At a glance, the clay pots weighed similar to the boulders, and they were filled with refined hot tinder oil. Thirty-five catapults cast the burning clay pots, and countless arcs of fire burning were sucked at the Wuping warship like the whip of the god of death.

This wave of attacks is more accurate than the second wave.

The ship where Yang Shiling was located was very lucky. Two burning pots passed by Yang Shiling's head and smashed on another Yuhuang ship without bias. As soon as the pot was broken, the turbulent oil dispersed everywhere and quickly turned into a big fireball. The southeast wind blew, and the fire was even more unstoppable. The Wuping warship had a plan to attack the Zhou army's warship with rockets. The warship was equipped with a lot of turbulent oil. The fire was even more unstoppable.

Yang Shiling then changed his face. He originally wanted to use the southeast wind to attack the Zhou army warships with rockets. Unexpectedly, the Zhou army came up with such a poisonous plan. Instead, he took advantage of the southeast wind to use the fire attack strategy against the wind.

At this time, the Wuping warship was like an arrow off the side, and could only move forward. If you retreat, you could never escape the attack of the Zhou army's catapult. However, when you go upstream, although with the help of the southeast wind, it was not very fast.

The stone-cattering players on the Zhou army warships tried their best to launch a warship. If a warship was burned, they would have less pressure during close combat.

When the Wuping Navy broke through the blockade of the Zhou army's catapult car, nine of the 16 Wuping warships of the Wuping Army had already ignited a raging fire. More than 100 thunderbolt ships and more than 40 were ignited. The Wuping soldiers on the fire ship were as chaotic as headless flies. They could not extinguish the fire and had to jump into the Yangtze River. The wailing sounds rose one after another on the Yangtze River.

These warships are all Yang Shiling's treasures and the basis for his survival. Yang Shiling's heart was as if he was stolen. He had a fire in his eyes and held the strong bow in his hand.

On the Zhou army's warship, Chen Huaijing looked at the Wuping army warship that broke through the blockade of the catapult cart, and said with some regret: "From the effectiveness of Lingji's combat, the number of catapult carts is still insufficient. If fifty catapult carts are added, the Wuping Navy will definitely be burned 30%."
