Chapter 479 Cao Jun also has a navy? A joke!
There is also a river in the Yangtze River that leads the Chaohu Lake directly adjacent to Hefei. Sun Quan and Zhou Yu are Chaohu Lake that lead the navy to enter from the Yuxi River under Chaohu Lake.
Taking water routes is obviously more time and food and grass than land routes, which is also one of the reasons why Sun Quan chose to attack Hefei.
In history, Sun Quan and Cao Cao had fought at Yuxi River many times.
Zhu Huan, the general of the Eastern Wu, defeated Cao Ren with 5,000 soldiers in this area; Ding Feng defeated 70,000 Wei troops with 3,000 light troops.
So much so that Cao Cao had an absolute advantage in military strength, he could only fight Sun Quan in Ruxukou for many months, and finally left a famous saying, "I should have a son like Sun Zhongmou."
Moreover, the advantages of the Jiangdong Navy, which controls the river, are not just water combat, but they will also fight on land and have advantages most of the time.
The advantage brought by the navy is that it can pass along the river without obstruction, intercept the enemy's rear path or withdraw to the ship at will, and run away after fighting. This is what we call amphibious combat.
Therefore, in history, Sun Quan has been giving up Xuzhou Guangling for many years to fight against Hefei, and also wants to take advantage of this advantage to seize Hefei first.
As long as Hefei is captured, Jiangdong can use Hefei to control the army from the west of Cao Wei, while another part of the army can attack Guangling County from Jianye and go straight to Xuzhou.
However, whether it was Hefei or Guangling Army, Sun Quan eventually returned in a defeat... In the end, he also praised a nickname, "Sun Shiwan".
......
After leaving Wuxian County, Han Dang led one of the few Jiangdong troops straight to Moling.
Moling is located on the banks of the Qinhuai River. The terrain is gentle, slightly lower in the east and higher in the west. It has an excellent geographical location. Wuhu Port is also close to Moling, so they can directly mount warships like the Yangtze River from there.
That's right, Han Dang did not intend to defend the city according to Zhang Zhao's arrangements.
In his hearts and most of the navy soldiers, he had some contempt for the so-called navy in the north.
The Cao army navy suddenly appeared in the estuary of the Yangtze River. Maybe it was the water secretly descending from Guangling County. How big can it be?
What kind of navy can a group of landslides become? Can they compare with those of them who have been soaked in water since childhood? Don’t sink into the water like a weight when they fall into the water. That’s not to laugh at people’s teeth.
These are Jiangdong athletes, but everyone can flexibly roll in the water; whether they jump into the water or dive into the water and drill through the bottom of the ship, they are all the best.
Even if the Cao army's warship was large, as long as the bottom of the ship was chiseled, it would still sink to the bottom of the water.
Although Han Dang only has eight thousand defenders now, he is still full of confidence.
He led these soldiers to the water camp, vowing to let the so-called Cao army naval commander take a good look at what a real naval commander is!
The eight thousand navy masters were riding various ships, and there were hundreds of ships in all directions.
After entering the Yangtze River waters, hundreds of warships marched on the surface of the Yangtze River in the night, which looked very spectacular.
The river breeze gently caressed the faces of the navy soldiers, and under the deep night, there seemed to be an unknown beast lurking in front of him.
Just as the Jiangdong Navy was moving forward quietly, Han Dang suddenly frowned, and felt an indescribable sense of crisis in his heart!
Suddenly, Han Dang raised his hand and shouted suddenly, "Stop moving forward!"
Although Han Dang's order came very abruptly, the Jiangdong Navy had good qualities.
"Stop moving forward!!"
The orders were conveyed layer by layer, and hundreds of warships stopped in place almost without panic.
After the fleet stopped, Han Dang shouted to the guard behind him: "Torch!"
The personal guard understood and immediately took a torch and handed it to Han Dang.
Han Dang held the torch, took a few steps back, and then accelerated a sprint and threw the torch in his hand far ahead!
"Huh!" Han Dang threw nearly a hundred steps with this hand. He is worthy of being a powerful general with extraordinary strength and good at shooting hard bows.
The torch drew a beautiful arc, illuminating a small world a hundred steps away...
Then,
From the brief light of the fire, Han Dang and Jiangdong soldiers seemed to see a hideous and terrifying giant beast!
That shocking glance made Han Dang and others take a breath!
Finally, the soldiers of Jiangdong couldn't help but scream: "What... is that in front of you!!!"
Just as all the soldiers in Jiangdong were panting and speculating, a warm but majestic voice suddenly sounded on the dark river surface ahead, "Ignite!"
"ignition!!!"
As the ignition order was issued, countless fires suddenly lit up ahead.
After the firelight appeared, there was a tingling sound of scalp, "Shishesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshe
After three breaths, it shook the sky and the earth!
"boom!!"
"Boom! Boom!"
"Boom boom boom boom!"
Countless roars that were about to break the eardrums sounded!
Han Dang immediately stood up all over his body, and he pounced forward without hesitation and lay on the deck.
Facts have proved that Han Dang’s intuition as a veteran on the battlefield is indeed very accurate. The Jiangdong soldiers who were stunned and didn’t know how to react suddenly came to a devastating blow!
After Han Dang fell down, he barely turned his head back.
When he looked behind him, he happened to see a guard holding a torch suddenly being knocked away by a black shadow!
The soldier knocked several of his comrades away along the way, and finally hit the cabin and his whole body was almost broken.
Another soldier hit the shell directly, and his body was broken into two pieces in an instant. He didn't even have time to scream, so he flew out in both directions.
Blood splattered, and limbs flew around!
After just one round of close shooting, dozens of ships in the Jiangdong Army were punched out of several holes.
They were originally small boats, but after being penetrated by the bottom of the ship, the ships quickly sank completely.
"Bastard!" Han Dang's eyes were so loud that he was shocked, but he was shocked, "What kind of weapon is this? Why does it have such a loud noise and power!"
"ignition!"
"fire!"
Before Han Dang could come up with something, the second round of artillery bombardment came again!
Han Dang's warship was at the forefront of the fleet and had just been hit by a few shells, just because his ship was bigger and did not sink so quickly...
The enemy's second round of attack sounded, and Han Dang no longer dared to stay on the boat. He immediately jumped from the boat and jumped into the water, and a fierce man actually pierced more than ten meters away.
After swimming for a long time, Han Dang looked at the fleet attacking him.
In the light of the fire, there were huge sailboats several meters high and unique in shape.
According to Han Dang's estimate, each warship can take at least one thousand to two thousand people, and the largest one in front can even take three thousand people!
The huge warship was parked quietly on the river surface, and the sails had already been closed.
But on both sides of the warship, there were dense oars stretching out, and they were sliding slowly and vigorously at this moment, using to keep the hull and the river bank relatively still.
Han Dang finally came to his senses, and he couldn't help but murmur: "Are these the warships of the Cao army's naval division?"
"Hiss! It's so terrifying!!!"
