Three Kingdoms Star System

Chapter 514 There are strong enemies in front and chasing soldiers behind

It is no wonder that Guan Yu was pleasantly surprised, because at this time Wu Jun suddenly had a huge panic. Guan Yu only saw many Wu Jun ships sinking on the river, but because it was too far away, he couldn't see what it was. reason.

So Guan Yu ordered the army to continue the pursuit, and ordered the building ship he was on to follow him to see what happened.

It was not until after traveling more than ten miles that Guan Yu finally figured out the reason for Wu Jun's retreat.

It turned out that when the battle between the Wu army and the Shu army was fierce, the Jingzhou army launched hundreds of catapults from behind the city wall. Size, those ships were either smashed or overturned, and the losses were extremely serious. In this case, even if Zhou Yu was unwilling, he had no choice but to retreat.

"I didn't expect that the Jingzhou army could come up with such a wonderful strategy, and I didn't expect that the catapult could be used in this way, and it could be fired so accurately!" Seeing the broken warships of the Wu army on the river, Guan Yu was shocked again. Feeling, but also frightened, it seems that even if there is a war against Liu He in the future, he must not attack his city from the river, otherwise this kind of loss is really unbearable.

At this time, on the top of the wall, Zhang Xiu and Guan Yu, the main generals of the other side, greeted with smiles: "General Guan, long time no see."

"General Zhang, this battle was fought so beautifully, and Yu really admires it." Guan Yu also had a smile on his face, and at the same time, he also sincerely admired the battle under the city of Jiangling, so what he said was not flattery, but the truth .

On the other hand, Zhang Xiu said with a chuckle: "To be honest, the general, all of this is the strategy set by the lord, and the merits of the generals, how can the general come up with such a clever plan? But overall, this The soldiers fought with their lives, and they fought really well. Zhou Yu's 5 troops lost at least [-] people, and although there are still half of them left, their morale has declined after all, so there is nothing to fear, not to mention that my lord is still in front. This time it will definitely make it difficult for Zhou Yu's children to escape, I don't know if General Guan is interested in leading his army to catch up and cooperate with my lord to defeat Zhou Yu together?"

"It turns out that Duke Qin has laid an ambush ahead. This is a good opportunity to annihilate Zhou Yu's son. How can I not join in the fun?" Guan Yu laughed when he heard this, and immediately ordered people to chase and kill Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu defeated in order to avenge his shame!
Guan Yu led his army to pursue and kill them all the way. After only walking fifty or sixty miles, he saw a large fleet of ships parked there in the distance. Looking at their flags, it was Zhou Yu's fleet.

Guan Yu guessed that Zhou Yu's fleet must have encountered an ambush and was now confronting Liu He's army. He believed that as long as the soldiers of Zhou Yu's army knew that his army was coming, the Wu army would definitely fall into panic. He used all his strength to fight, so he ordered people to set up their positions and take precautions. He also ordered people to beat the drums and shout loudly so as to have a deterrent effect.

Guan Yu's guess was correct. Zhou Yu was going to lead his army to escape and retreat back to Jiangdong, but he didn't expect that when his army had only traveled fifty or sixty miles, he saw a huge fleet appearing not far ahead. A fleet is different from a normal fleet. Those ships are very strange, and he has never seen them before. However, judging from his years of experience in water warfare, the opponent's ships are very advanced.

One of the boats has a very strange shape. This kind of boat doesn’t look too big. It can hold about 300 people. However, there are floating boards on both sides of the boat, which looks like a big bird. In this way, the stability of the boat is very strong, and the possibility of rollover is greatly reduced.

In addition, there are twenty or thirty oars on both sides of the boat, which ensures that even if there is no wind on the river, or even if it is against the wind, the boat can sail ideally.

What surprised Zhou Yu even more was that there were hundreds of such ships that he had never seen before!
In addition, the largest building ship built by the other party actually has five floors and is more than a hundred feet high. It is also equipped with six huge racket poles. Any approaching ship can be directly hit by the racket poles. Beat it to pieces.

"I really didn't expect that the other party would come up with such an incredible design, but these things are just a layer of window paper, and they are worthless if exposed. After this battle is over, I will be able to create such a high-performance The ships are coming.”

Zhou Yu memorized the shapes of those ships carefully, and thought about the feasibility of manufacturing them.

After a while, only the sound of rumbling war drums came from the opposite side, and then the soldiers shouted loudly. At this time, Zhou Yu's personal general Zhou An asked: "Governor, the enemy has issued an attack order. Should we fight or not?" retreat?"

Zhou Yu smiled and opened his mouth to speak, when suddenly he heard the sound of drums and the shouts of soldiers from behind.

Hearing the news from behind the formation, Zhou Yu couldn't help but face a big face. He didn't need to investigate to know that Guan Yu must have led his army to catch up. I will annihilate your tens of thousands of navy troops today."

"Boss, Commander-in-Chief, there are strong enemies in front and pursuers in the back, what should we do now?" Rao Zhou An has always been steady, but at this time, seeing two fleets blocking them in the middle, he was a little flustered. Looking at Zhou Yu, he said, "Otherwise, let's go ashore from here."

"This is absolutely not possible!" Zhou Yu heard the words and said decisively: "Our army's advantage lies in water warfare. If we abandon the ship and go ashore, I am afraid that even Guan Yu will not be able to defeat it, let alone Liu He's elite? So, for today In other words, we can only concentrate on destroying an army first, and then find a way to get out."

"Then who should we eliminate first? Or we should eliminate the Shu army. After all, the opponent's combat power is relatively weak, and Liu Hejun's big ship looks very neat and mighty. We are not easy to mess with." Zhou Quan looked at Liu Hejun's front. The ship has a look of fear on its face.

But Zhou Yu smiled and said: "You are wrong this time. Although the ships in Liu He's army are novel and powerful, everyone in the world knows that they are not good at water warfare. Although they have the advantage of ships, it is difficult for them to defeat them." Defeat us, not to mention that Liu He's army is downstream and we are upstream, which increases our chances of winning. Although Guan Yu's army is relatively weak, it is proficient in water warfare. If we just defend, it will be difficult for us to cause fatal damage to them. Therefore, this time our first choice target is Liu He's fleet. As long as Liu He's fleet is defeated, the Shu army will retreat without a fight. Hehe, maybe we can capture important generals in Liu He's army. I really hope this Liu He also personally participated in the first battle. If he also participated, we could wipe out his fleet and capture him, which would be great fun."
