Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Not only Huang Gai, Pan Zhang and other generals, but also Wu's soldiers were all surprised by Yan Jun's new warship.

    That kind of warship has neither sails nor oars, and looks like a battleship. There is also a long pole installed on the three decks, which looks extremely strange.

    Under Wu Ru's surprised gaze, Gan Ning led his hundred chariots and ships and rushed into the enemy's formation with lightning speed.

    Pan Zhang, who was ordered to block the attack, recovered from his surprise and hurriedly ordered the crossbowmen to fire arrows to block the enemy ship's advance.

    But because Yan Jun¡¯s vehicles and ships did not have oar holes, Wu Ru could not shoot the sailors rowing through the oar holes, so he could not delay Yan Jun¡¯s attack.

    The two fleets quickly passed each other and started a close combat.

    The crossbowmen of the Yan Army on the side of the ship fired back at the Wu Army through the ship stacks shaped like parapets to suppress the opponent's arrow firepower.

    At this time, Wu Jun's surprise was over. They soon discovered that although Yan Jun's new warship had a strange shape, it actually had nothing special about it.

    "You want to scare me with just a few weird-looking broken ships? You are really childish."

    Pan Zhang showed disdain on his face, brandishing his sword, and yelled at his building ship to approach the enemy ship, trying to use his height advantage to suppress the approaching enemy ship from above.

    At this moment, the long oar-like thing installed at the back of the vehicle and ship suddenly started to rotate. The long pole swept like a wheel and hit Wu Junlou's ship from a distance of seven or eight steps.  of the rear.

    Seven or eight Wu soldiers were caught off guard and were knocked away by the long pole. They all screamed and fell into the river.

    Immediately afterwards, the long pole swept past again amid the sound of the trumpet, and swept towards the mast above the building ship.

    With the sound of tearing, the canvas several feet high was torn apart, and the long pole equipped with a sharp blade, the canvas and the sail rope were cut off in the blink of an eye.

    As soon as the sail rope was broken, the huge canvas fell off and suddenly covered most of the ship's hull. The Wu soldiers who were covered underneath suddenly fell into panic.

    Pan Zhang, who was originally confident, turned petrified in an instant, with a horrified expression, as if he couldn't believe that Yan Jun's battleship was equipped with such incredible "secret weapons".

    Yan Liang, who was watching the battle from a distance, finally showed a sneer on his indifferent face as he watched the enemy ship's sails fold.

    The thing mounted on the vehicle and ship is called a shooting pole. It is a close-range attack weapon used on a large scale on a type of main battleship called a shooting ship in later generations.

    At that time, after Yan Liang thought about vehicles and ships, he considered that although he had the advantage of mobility, if he lacked sufficient attack power, it would still not be enough to defeat the enemy. So Yan Liang had an idea and thought of adding a shooting pole to the vehicles and ships.

    Yan Liang quickly told his wife Huang Yueying his idea. This was naturally not a difficult problem for his smart wife. Huang Yueying made a slight change and readjusted the design.

    These one hundred warships, which combine vehicles, ships, and warships, are like a "hodgepodge" and are now eye-catchingly demonstrating their powerful attack power to the two warring armies.

    Pan Zhang was so frightened that he shouted at the soldiers to lift the fallen sail. Although he had lost the power of the sail, he still had the power of the oar. Pan Zhang decided to turn the bow of the boat and catch up with the enemy who passed by him.  Ship, give the enemy a blow from behind.

    But just when Pan Zhang emerged from the canvas and he and his soldiers were still in shock, Pan Zhang's already shocked expression became even more shocking.

    With their wide-eyed eyes, the Wu soldiers were horrified to find that the enemy ship, which was originally moving downstream, miraculously moved backwards without even turning its bow.

    "Without sails, without oars, without turning the bow, the battleship can race against the current. Such a magical scene is simply unheard of.

    In an instant, Pan Zhang and his entire fleet of soldiers were all stunned.

    Of course Wu Ru would never have dreamed that a vehicle or ship powered by stepping on gears could easily change the direction of rotation of the gear as long as the sailors at the bottom of the cabin changed the direction of pedaling.  It can be reversed in seconds.

    Gan Ning, who was in the car and boat, was admiring Wu Ru's surprised faces with a joking look.

    Taking advantage of Wu Ru's panicked state, Gan Ning shouted loudly: "Aim the stern rudder of the enemy ship with the slapping pole. I'll slap it hard."

    Amidst the loud shouts, several strong men with ape-like arms and tiger bodies manipulated the long shooting pole, taking advantage of the backward movement of the car and ship, and took advantage of the situation to shoot up to the rudder at the stern of the ship.

    There was only a "click" sound, and the wooden rudder of the building ship was snapped off, and a soldier who was handling the rudder also followed suit.Shi was shot and flew away.

    The ship had lost its rudder and sails, and it was impossible to control the direction of the ship with only its remaining oars. A huge ship lost control and could only drift down the current.

    The Wu soldiers on the ship were dizzy and completely in panic. Pan Zhang also completely lost his bearings and didn't know what to do. He could only let his flagship drift randomly.

    A building ship that loses direction control is equivalent to losing its combat capability. Gan Ning succeeded in the battle and immediately destroyed the ship and moved forward, rushing towards another enemy ship.

    When Pan Zhang's flagship failed, the more than a hundred warships that faced it had already fallen into complete chaos under the attack of Yan Jun's new combat method.

    Countless soldiers were shot down, the sails were torn off, and the stern rudder was destroyed. The warship, like Pan Zhang's flagship, fell into a chaotic situation.

    Wu Ru had no room to resist this new attack mode. In just a moment, Pan Zhang's fleet was paralyzed.

    Gan Ning, who broke through the defense line, led his fleet of vehicles and ships that had won the first battle and took advantage of the situation to break into the chaotic battle group.

    Wu Jun, who was originally in an advantageous position, could not withstand this special attack. As long as the vehicles and ships passed by, it was almost unstoppable.

    That big flag with the word "Gan" in it came out from the west and east in a mighty manner, tearing Wu Ru's fleet in half with lightning speed.

    Huang Gai was shocked, Zhou Tai was shocked, and Xu Sheng was shocked.

    Tens of thousands of Wu soldiers were all in panic. Even the most experienced warriors lost their fighting spirit under this powerful impact.

    But Lu Meng and Ling Tong were extremely pleasantly surprised. At this moment, when they finally saw the powerful lethality of this new type of warship, they suddenly realized why their lord was able to defeat the enemy with absolute confidence. It turned out that Jing had something.  This weapon.

    "Kill Wu Gou, kill O¡ª¡ª"

    The officers and soldiers of the Yan Army who were originally at a disadvantage were rekindled in their fighting spirit. One battleship after another, one after another, rushed towards the enemy ships from all directions like dragons.

    Under this heavy blow, the Wu army soon completely collapsed, and the ships whose command system completely failed all fled under the powerful offensive of the Yan army.

    As for those fighting ships and high-rise ships that lost power, the Wu army on top could only abandon the big ships and switch to boats to escape downstream.

    How could the officers and soldiers of Yan's army, who were red-eyed with the killing, allow the enemy to escape easily? They were as dense as locust arrows, chasing the frightened enemy.

    And those long racquet poles raced the whole boat to knock Wu Ru over. There were countless Wu soldiers who fell into the water and were swallowed by the river.

    Above the river, the Wu army's howls were loud and clear, and the floating corpses covered almost half of the river.

    At this moment, Sun Quan, who was still watching the battle from behind, looked miserable, his face was covered in cold sweat, and his whole body was trembling.

    At this time, the Lord of Jiangdong was stunned by the defeat of his own army.

    All self-confidence, all the flames of revenge, and all self-esteem were evaporated at this moment, turning into infinite terror.

    "How is it possible? How could that thief build such a warship? How is it possible"

    Sun Quan¡¯s mind went blank, except for a big exclamation mark.

    Of course he couldn¡¯t understand how Jingzhou could build such a terrifying warship since its backward shipbuilding level couldn¡¯t even build a tower ship.

    ¡°Moreover, the propulsion method and attack method of this kind of warship are things that Sun Quan could not even imagine in his dreams.

    The broken battle flags were withering, and countless corpses of his own soldiers were floating densely from the river in front of him. And his 30,000 sailors were now in ruins. The broken warships were like frightened lambs.  Generally speaking, they are fleeing this way crazily.

    In an instant, Sun Quan felt like he had lost all hope.

    He felt as if his heart had been hit hard by a heavy hammer, his chest hurt so much that he could hardly breathe, and his whole body staggered and fell sideways.

    "My lord¡ª¡ª" Lu Xun, who was accompanying him, screamed and rushed forward to help him.

    Sun Quan woke up from his dizziness and blamed himself with deep shame: "Bo Yan, I should have listened to your advice earlier and should not have attacked easily. I didn't expect that Yan Liangjing would be like this"

    "Deceitful, magical, terrifying At this moment, Sun Quan no longer knew how to evaluate his opponent. He didn't even have the courage to curse.

    Lu Xun was surprised. Although he guessed that Yan Liang might have a back-up plan, he did not expect that Yan Liang's back-up plan was so powerful.Deadly, so deadly that Wu Jun had no room to resist.

    "Lord, the situation is over. Retreat quickly. If Yan Jun catches up, everything will be over." Lu Xunshang maintained a sliver of calm.

    The defeated troops of our own army have fled close, and Yan's army is in hot pursuit. It won't take long to get close.

    At this time, Sun Quan had no intention of fighting again. He sighed and said feebly: "Retreat, retreat quickly."

    The ship turned around, and Sun Quan, protected by more than twenty warships, hurriedly fled downstream before the defeated army arrived.

    Yan Liang, who was watching the battle from the west, could finally take a long breath at this time, as if the anger that had been accumulated for a long time was finally vented in this battle.

    Zhou Cang and other soldiers on the left and right were also excited to the extreme, and the cheers resounded across the river like spring thunder.

    The eyes that looked at Yan Liang were full of wonder and admiration. They were amazed that their lord could have such a clever strategy to defeat the enemy and lead their Jingzhou army to finally be able to stand upright on the river.  Defeated the old enemy Wu Jun.

    The high-spirited Yan Liang pointed his riding whip and said loudly: "The whole army continues to pursue, I will go straight to Chaisang¡ª¡ª"
