    In the Han River, Wu Jun's tens of thousands of sailors and hundreds of warships were still anchored in the dark at night. When they saw a fire, they were ready to rush up and kill them on the north bank.  < >

    On the huge building flagship, Zhou Yu was wearing silver armor and hanging a sword, looking calmly at the enemy camp on the north bank.

    His handsome face always showed confidence, as if everything was under his control.

    However, as time went by, that confidence was gradually replaced by doubt.

    A long time has passed since L¨¹ Meng's fire fleet set off. According to estimates, L¨¹ Meng should have launched the fire ships by this time. What's more, at this time, the enemy camp on the other side was already in flames.

    But after a long time, there was still no fire.

    In order to prevent Yan Liang from becoming suspicious, although Zhou Yu mobilized all his troops, he did not dare to get too close to Lu Meng's fire fleet, and there was still a considerable distance between them.

    It was this distance, coupled with the barrier of darkness and the interference of the sound of rolling water, that made it impossible for Zhou Yu to judge what was happening ahead.

    At this time, even though he was becoming more and more suspicious, he could only continue to wait.

    Time passed by, and there was still no sign of the long-awaited fire. The soldiers of the three armies gradually began to become anxious.

    At this time, Lu Su couldn't help but worry: "Gong Jin, I haven't seen Lu Ziming setting fire for a long time. Could it be that Yan Liang saw through his fake surrender?"

    Zhou Yu snorted coldly, "Our layout is so sophisticated. Lu Ziming has even used the trick of suffering. If Yan Liang can also see through this, wouldn't he be a god?"

    Although Zhou Yu was suspicious of Lu Meng's delay in setting fire, he was convinced of his own strategy.

    "Although Yan Liang is not a god, he cannot be treated with common sense. I think it is better to be cautious." Lu Su was still cautious.

    Zhou Yu showed a bit of displeasure at this time, and his face sank slightly.

    "Zijing, these days you keep saying how great Yan Liang is. I don't know how many times you have to say this to help others' arrogance and destroy your own."

    Zhou Yu finally couldn't bear it anymore.  He vented his dissatisfaction with Lu Su.

    Lu Su's expression changed, as if he didn't expect Zhou Yu to say such things to him, and he didn't know how to respond.  Just embarrassed there.

    Zhou Yu ignored him and continued to look toward the enemy camp with blazing eyes.

    It was at this moment.  From the direction of the enemy camp, there was a faint cry of killing, as if a fierce battle suddenly broke out.

    Zhou Yu¡¯s eyes quickly flashed with suspicion.

    The fierce battle ahead started and ended quickly. Soon the shouts of killing fell silent, leaving only the sound of rolling river waves.

    Just when Zhou Yu was suspicious, he saw several boats studded with arrows, escorted by several sentry boats, hurried back to the ship formation.

    Zhou Yu looked intently.  He was surprised to find that the hedgehog that was shot was one of Lu Meng's fire fleet.

    A look of surprise flashed across that handsome face.

    Zhou Yu shouted anxiously: "Go and ask the incoming ship what's going on. Why didn't Lu Meng set the fire?"

    Not long after, several wounded soldiers were brought to the flagship. Several of them knelt down in front of Zhou Yu in despair. One of them, a relatively agile soldier, carefully explained how the fire fleet was surrounded and killed by the enemy.  He stuttered again.

    at this time.  Zhou Yu's face had turned livid, and his eyes were filled with shock and resentment, as if he didn't dare or didn't want to believe what he heard.

    And when the generals on the left and right heard that the false surrender failed, they were all shocked.

    Lu Su next to him looked equally surprised. Although he advised Zhou Yu not to underestimate Yan Liang, he could not suppress his surprise when Yan Liang saw through Zhou Yu's plan.

    Lu Su wanted to comfort Zhou Yu, but thinking of Zhou Yu's previous attitude, he couldn't say anything more and could only sigh secretly.

    But to Zhou Yu's ears, his sigh sounded like he was mocking himself for not listening to his advice.

    Zhou Yu's eyes were filled with anger and murderous intent.

    "How can Yan Liang see through my plan? Who is it? Who leaked the news? There must be a traitor in our army!"

    Everyone was startled by Zhou Yu's roar and looked at each other in confusion. Everyone was busy pretending to be calm, for fear of being mistaken for having something evil in mind.

    At this time, Lu Su couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Gong Jin, it's hard to tell how Yan Liang saw through our plan at this time, but the fact is that now, a surprise attack is obviously impossible. We'd better withdraw to the camp and try again."  Let¡¯s take a long-term view.¡±

    &nbsp; The plan was broken, Yan Liang had already prepared, and now it was a wise move to withdraw his troops and return to camp.

    Zhou Yu suddenly drew his sword and said sternly: "Even if the fire attack fails, I still have a strong naval force. How can I allow that man to be rampant? I have ordered the entire army to storm the enemy camp. We must attack the north bank tonight."  Cut off the heads of Yan Liang¡¯s men¡ª¡ª¡±

    Zhou Yu's anger was gone, and his beautiful jade-like face turned into a ferocious and frightening one.

    Lu Su knew clearly that Zhou Yu was acting on his own initiative, but he was frightened by his anger and did not dare to say anything. Lu Su did not dare to say anything, let alone others.

    Orders from the flagship were passed down one after another, and soon the rumble of war drums soared into the sky. Hundreds of warships and tens of thousands of Wu troops were shouting and attacking the Yanjun water camp on the north bank.

    ¡­¡­

    At the shore, Yan Liang and his soldiers had been waiting for a long time.

    This group of tigers and wolves, who had been confused in the wind for a long time, finally waited for the moment when the enemy launched a full-scale attack.

    Listening to the rumbling war drums and watching the enemy ships tearing through the cover of night and charging toward the water camp, everyone's blood quickly boiled.

    Yan Liang was sitting there, still sipping the fine wine, with a carefree look on his face, as if he had completely turned a blind eye to the Wu people's massive attack.

    The sound of war drums sounded like thunder, and the enemy ships were getting closer and closer. Even Xu Shu had a look of uneasiness on his face.

    "My lord, the enemy is approaching, it's time to react." Xu Shu couldn't help but add.

    Yan Liang drank a glass of wine, raised his head and glanced at the water, nodded and said: "Okay, let the Wu dogs taste the power of our crossbow first."

    The herald rushed to the ground, and the sound of shouting orders echoed in the water camp.

    In an instant, more than forty vehicles had aimed at the enemy ship in the water, four hundred medium-sized iron arrows, and the blades flickering in the cold light were as ferocious as the fangs of death.

    The sound of war drums is the order to fire arrows.

    The sound of a thousand birds flapping their wings suddenly rose, and four hundred iron arrows shot out from the strings, tearing through the headwind and roaring towards the Wu fleet.

    During the First Battle of Fanwan City, Yan Liang originally had twenty-five crossbow carts. It has been more than a month now. During this period, Huang Yueying supervised the craftsmen and rushed out fifteen more.

    Although these forty crossbows are not very convenient to move, their ultra-long range and huge lethality are unmatched by all today's crossbows.

    Four hundred arrows shot out, like a heaven and earth net, drawing out streaks of green light, heading straight towards the Wu people six hundred steps away.

    The Wu people in the battleship heard the sound of breaking wind and knew that arrows were coming. Some of them raised their shields to block them, while others hid under the ship wall.

    But what frightened them was that the penetrating power of the incoming arrows was extraordinary. Not only could they penetrate ordinary wooden shields, they could also shoot through thick ship walls.

    The screams suddenly started, and the thirty or forty people on board the ship, Sergeant Wu, were instantly pierced by iron arrows.

    Zhou Yu was shocked when he saw that his soldiers were shot.

    Six hundred steps away, there is still a strong headwind, but it is really unheard of for such a powerful crossbow to have such a powerful lethality!

    Next to him, Lu Su said anxiously: "Gong Jin, this must be the powerful crossbow that Yan Liang used to defeat Yuan Tan in the rumors. Yan Liang has such a strange crossbow. If our army attacks again, I'm afraid it will be extremely passive."

    Zhou Yu was still a little afraid, but Lu Su's advice made him even more angry.

    "A few powerful crossbows are trying to block my thousands of troops. They underestimate the courage of my Wu people. I order the whole army not to retreat and to continue to advance."

    Zhou Yu was determined to attack to the death, and Wu Jun on each ship had no choice but to shrink his head and urge the warships to continue moving forward.

    At the shore, Yan Liang couldn't help but sneered when he saw that the Wu people were still approaching Shuiying.

    "This Zhou Yu is really persistent. He will never look back until he hits the south wall. Very good. I like this kind of enemy. Send the order, and the other crossbowmen will also release arrows to welcome our Zhou Da."  Governor."

    In addition to more than 40 crossbow carts, Yan Liang also deployed nearly 4,000 crossbowmen on the shore. These crossbowmen were all powerful bows that Yan Liang had seized from enemies on all sides in recent years.  crossbow.

    As the order was passed, countless arrows flew out from their strings like locusts, carrying their anger and hatred towards the Wu people, and rushed towards them like the sky and the earth.

    At this time, the Wu fleet also approached the shore, and the crossbowmen on the ship also began to fire their bows and arrows in return.

    On the shore and on the water, the crossbowmen from both sides became the protagonists of this offensive and defensive battle, shooting at each other with long-range arrows.

    ?In all archery skills, the easiest thing is to shoot on flat ground, and the most difficult is to shoot from horseback. However, when the boat is on the water and the wind and waves are bumpy, the difficulty of shooting the bow and arrow on the boat is not much easier than shooting from horseback.

    Regardless of anything else, just with this accuracy, the flat ground is much higher than the boat.

    So although it seemed that the Wu people had more crossbowmen, because they were all on the boat, their accuracy was greatly reduced. After a few rounds, the Wu people were quickly suppressed by the Yan Army's crossbowmen on the shore.  .

    Under the impact of the rain of arrows, the Wu people on the boat fell to the ground in pieces, and screams could not be heard.

    At the end of the exchange, the Wu people were so suppressed that they could only duck and dodge arrows. The crossbowmen were so suppressed that they could not lift their heads. Only when they saw an opening did they dare to stand up and shoot random arrows.  .

    The Wu's ship stopped on the water two hundred steps away, unable to move forward any further.

    "Gong Jin, the enemy's arrows are too fierce. If we continue to attack forcefully, we will only lose the soldiers. Gong Jin, we should put the overall situation first and stop acting out of impulse!"

    Faced with such an unfavorable situation, Lu Su didn't care much and sternly persuaded Zhou Yu.

    Zhou Yu's face was livid, and he was secretly gritting his teeth in hatred. He knew that it was useless to fight anymore and should retreat, but he just couldn't swallow this breath.

    At this moment, an arrow shot through the air and hit Zhou Yu's shoulder.  (Welcome, your support is my biggest motivation.)
