Mi Han

Chapter 746: The Blood Banner Flying and Surprisingly Changing
In front of the endless thousands of Han army warships, there were dozens of small boats.

Zouge is a troop transport ship of the time. It is small in size and usually follows behind large warships.

It needs protection.

But today, before the two naval forces, the Han army, contrary to its usual practice, lined up more than a dozen pleasure boats in front.

Such an abnormal behavior did not come from Mi Yang's order.

The reason for this abnormality was probably that Wei Yan was standing on one of the dozen or so boats.

Wei Yan looked at the hundreds of Wu army's "warships" in front of him with disdain in his eyes.

It can be said that after decades of development, the foundation of Wu Jun’s navy is indeed extraordinary.

Even though today, due to the sudden incident, the Wu army could only dispatch grain transport ships in the port to block the Han army's navy, but even the Wu army's grain transport ships, in terms of individual size, were larger and more advanced than the Han army's warships.

Judging from the current apparent power comparison, although the Han army has a large number of warships, it is not impossible for the Wu army to rely on hundreds of tall "warships" to block the Han army for a while.

This is also the reason why Pan Zhang urged several of his trusted men to send troops.

This moment of time is exactly what Pan Zhang wants!

But Wei Yan still showed disdain.

As the vanguard of the Han army's navy today, Wei Yan inserted two spiritual flags on both sides of his bow.

On the left spirit flag, it is written "Restore the Country and Mountains", and on the right spirit flag, it is written "Welcome the Heroic Body"!
These two spiritual banners were prepared by Wei Yan for the Wu army.

The eight characters on the two spirit banners symbolize the Han army's national hatred and personal grudge against the Wu army.

Since the time these two spiritual banners were hung up, Wei Yan no longer needed to say passionate words to boost morale.

All the Han soldiers who saw these two spiritual banners had looks of resentment on their faces.

Resentment can be transformed into strength.

What Wei Yan did next completely ignited the passion in the hearts of tens of thousands of Han troops.

Wei Yan led a dozen of boats around him and quickly sailed out of the Han army's naval formation.

At the beginning, not to mention the Wu army, even the Han army did not pay much attention to Wei Yan's action.

Although Wei Yan's status was different from others, he was driving a chariot at that time.

The size of the gaojian limits its appearance to very few times when the navies of two armies are in direct combat.

Even if it appears occasionally, it is only used to patrol the river bank.

The Wu army on the opposite side, who did not know Wei Yan's identity, immediately thought that the appearance of the dozen or so boats was for the purpose of observing their own formation at close range.

But soon, several generals in the Wu army discovered something was wrong.

The speed of the boats was extremely fast. Soon, more than ten boats rushed into their warning range.

If these dozen or so Han army boats were intended to observe their own battle formation, they should have stopped moving forward at this time.

But no, they still move forward!

The fearless attitude of the dozen or so boats made several Wu army generals react belatedly.

They realized one thing.

Could it be that the Han army on the opposite side wanted to use these dozens of boats to directly attack their formation?
This idea sounded ridiculous, but as the dozen or so boats got closer, the generals of the Wu army soon realized that this idea was actually true!
It was not until this moment that the generals of the Wu army thought of sending people to stop the dozen or so boats.

But at this time, a dozen boats led by Wei Yan had arrived at the front line of the Wu army.

Unexpected things will cause panic in your heart.

In other words, from the moment thousands of Han warships appeared before their eyes, the thousands of Wu navy troops who were hastily assembled felt panic in their hearts.

Wei Yan's unexpected behavior further stimulated the panic among the Wu army.

In such a panic, how could the front line of Wu army resist?

Therefore, before the Wu army general's order was issued to the front line, the Wu army's navy in the front line was smashed to pieces by the dozens of Han army's boats that rushed in rapidly.

During this process, there were people in the Wu army's navy who wanted to resist Wei Yan.

But he is Wei Yan!

If any Wu soldier dared to block the way, Wei Yan would kill him.

If there was a pair, Wei Yan would kill them both.

If a small naval force of the Wu army dared to block his way, Wei Yan would directly order the boats to ram them, and then Wei Yan would lead the Han army, which were good at climbing, to board the Wu army's warships and fight with them.

Wei Yan's reckless fighting style directly scared the Wu army's navy who wanted to surround him.

They have seen people who are not afraid of death, but it is rare to see someone who is not afraid of death and so brave!

Under Wei Yan's swift offensive, the vanguards of the Wu army retreated one after another, and did not dare to try to challenge Wei Yan's edge.

When the Han navy in the rear saw how brave Wei Yan was, they couldn't help but cheer loudly.

As waves of cheers and shouts that could break the hearts of the Wu army rang out, thousands of Han army warships could no longer hold back. In an instant, thousands of sails were hoisted and they rushed downstream towards the Wu army's naval formation.

With the god-killing Wei Yan leading the way nearby and the ferocious Han navy approaching from afar, the hearts and minds of thousands of Wu navy were terrified.

But what made the Wu army generals even more crazy was that Wei Yan's purpose seemed to be not just killing.

As the Wu army's naval vanguard continued to retreat, Wei Yan's attention soon began to shift.

After killing another Wu soldier in front of him, Wei Yan, who could have occupied the Wu army's warship, jumped directly from the deck and returned to his original boat.

After standing firmly, Wei Yan ignored the Wu army vanguard who were afraid of him and looked behind the thousands of Wu soldiers.

That is the direction of Zhouling Port.

Once his eyes were locked on the target, Wei Yan quickly moved again.

After several rounds of fighting, the number of boats following Wei Yan decreased.

But this did not create any hindrance to Wei Yan's idea of ​​moving forward.

Continuous urging came from Wei Yan's mouth. Under Wei Yan's urging, the speed of more than a dozen boats suddenly increased a bit.

Why did Wei Yan choose a zoe as his "mount" for charging?
Because despite all its shortcomings, the speed of a gaojian on the water is unmatched by any other ship in the world.

More than ten boats, speeding to the extreme, shot towards the vital points of Zhouling like sharp arrows shot by Mi Yang himself.

Pan Zhang had thought that the hundreds of transport ships in the port would be unable to resist the Han navy going downstream.

After all, the generals of the Wu army have always despised the warships of the Jingzhou navy, but have never despised the combat capabilities of the Jingzhou navy.

Pan Zhang ordered an attack even though he knew he might not be able to stop the enemy, because he wanted to delay time.

Delaying the attack until he had time to summon the soldiers in the city, and delaying the attack until he could lead the Wu army to form a blocking formation on the shore.

Strike halfway across!

But if Pan Zhang could think of it, could Mi Yang not think of it?
The order Mi Yang gave to Wei Yan was to land as quickly as possible at all costs!

The direction Wei Yan was advancing was soon noticed by several Wu army generals who were retreating.

After realizing Wei Yan's intention, they were shocked and angry.

But after being shocked and angry, the Wu army generals knew that they could no longer retreat.

Today’s water war can be lost.

But if Wei Yan was allowed to quickly fight his way to the port, and if the Han army following Wei Yan was allowed to successfully land in a short period of time, Zhouling City would be in danger!
Regardless of the abilities of these Wu army generals, they were regarded as Pan Zhang's confidants, and they were willing to die for Pan Zhang.

So after looking at each other, they quickly made a decision.

Those Wu army generals, leading their respective personal guards, attacked in the direction of Wei Yan's advance one after another.

The leading general of the Wu army was named Pan Cheng.

As Pan Zhang's cousin, he has always been loved by Pan Zhang for his martial arts skills.

But when Pan Cheng got to Wei Yan, he could not even last three rounds before being chopped off by the big knife in Wei Yan's hand.

After Pan Cheng, there was Chen Gui.

After Chen Gui, there was Zhang Li.

After Zhang Li came Wang Yu, Lin Tong and others.

They were all captains of the Wu army, and in the past they were praised as heroes of Jiangdong in the army.

But even with such status and such praise, for Wei Yan, taking their lives was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.

What the hell are these!
What Wei Yan thought was an ordinary thing felt like a bolt from the blue to the Wu army around him.

Because Wei Yan was so excited about killing, he did not notice that the two spirit flags beside him were stained with the blood of Wu army.

The spirit flag, which was originally all white, had already turned into a strange blood red.

When the blood-red spirit flags fluttered in the wind from the river, the Wu army who saw this scene thought that the two spirit flags were indeed the soul-seeking flags specially prepared for them by the Han army.

Wherever the two flags went, there was no chance of survival for the Wu army!

How could the remaining Wu troops not be frightened by such an illusion?
And with many generals killed in battle, how could the frightened Wu army organize a defensive formation?
Under the swift attack of Wei Yan and more and more Han troops, thousands of Wu navy finally could not bear it anymore.

I don’t know who shouted “escape” first, but it was this shout of “escape” that triggered the great defeat of the Wu army.

Some Wu soldiers jumped into the water, begging for their lives.

Some Wu soldiers turned their boats sharply, trying to avoid the Han army.

More Wu troops knelt down and surrendered when the Han army arrived in front of them.

But perhaps Wu Jun’s ways of surviving vary, but there is one thing they all have in common.

That is, no living Wu soldiers dared to stay on the water where the Han army was heading to Zhouling Port.

Wherever Wei Yan went with the banner, the Wu army was like a dog that had lost its home, and all of them fled in disarray!
In such a situation, how could there be any accidents in a mere Zhouling Port?
Not long after, Wei Yan, with his face covered in blood, heavily inserted two bloody flags into the ground of Zhouling.

When the blood flags fell to the ground, they strangely stopped fluttering.

It seemed as if it had sucked enough blood, and then it seemed as if it had gone home and dared not show off anymore.

Welcomed by Wei Yan, Mi Yang set foot on the land of Zhouling.

When Mi Yang was looking at the terrain around Zhouling, Wei Yan said excitedly beside him:
"You know, Grand Marshal, when I landed on the shore, I saw the Wu dogs arrayed on the shore.

But they had not yet finished forming their battle array, and when they saw me, they were so frightened that they ran back into the city."

Wei Yan has always been an outgoing person, and today's battle was indeed exciting, so it is normal for Wei Yan to be eager to confide in Mi Yang.

After hearing Wei Yan's words, Mi Yang smiled and patted Wei Yan's shoulder.

At Wei Yan's request, Mi Yang gave Wei Yan full responsibility for today's battle with the Wu navy.

Mi Yang did not know in advance how Wei Yan would quickly defeat the Wu navy.

So when Mi Yang learned how Wei Yan defeated the enemy, he was a little surprised.

So tough?
Mi Yang asked himself if he were to fight in today's battle, he would not be so fierce.

Just looking at the numerous corpses of Wu soldiers floating on the water, Mi Yang had to admit that Wei Yan's tactics today were quite appropriate.

However, Mi Yang felt that the best way was to continue the fire attack and burn the Wu army to ashes.

Wei Yan saw the satisfied look on Mi Yang's face, and he quietly put down the uneasiness in his heart.

Judging from the results today, the Han army certainly won a great victory.

However, during the process, Wei Yan delayed issuing the order to surrender in order to retaliate against the Wu army, which resulted in many Wu soldiers drowning in the water.

Wei Yan thought that Mi Yang would scold him after seeing so many corpses of Wu soldiers on the water, but he didn't.

However, Wei Yan was still a little confused. Why did the Grand Marshal have that unsatisfied look on his face?
While Wei Yan was thinking about this, Mi Yang asked him, "Where is Zixia, was he killed by Zhu Huan?"

Mi Yang's question brought Wei Yan back to his senses instantly, and then he took Mi Yang to a place on the river bank with a serious face.

"According to the captured prisoners, Lord Wang was executed here."

After saying this, Wei Yan deliberately lowered his voice and spoke the next sentence.

"It is said that on the day of his execution, County Lord Wang's last request was to face north."

Wei Yan's words made Mi Yang clench his fists.

Mi Yang remembered that many years ago, he had discussed with Wang Hong about the heroes of the world.

During the conversation, Shen Pei was one of the people Wang Hong admired.

"Dying facing north" is a deed that Wang Hong praised highly.

The power of role models is infinite, but Mi Yang never thought that one day the people around him would become one of the role models in history.

Mi Yang, feeling depressed, half-knelt on the shore. He stretched out his hand to scoop up a handful of water and watched quietly with his eyes down.

"Zixia really can't come back."

It is not true that Mi Yang and Wang Hong's relationship is so good that they need to be together every day.

Mi Yang even reprimanded Wang Hong many times for his poor performance.

But isn’t that the case with the people around you?

There is no need for strong emotional expressions, and sometimes there will be contradictions.

But no matter what, I just can't be away.

Mi Yang's words made Wei Yan's mood instantly depressed.

Wei Yan recalled his performance when Huang Zhong died.

"Zixia's sacrifice really helped me a lot.

Without his sacrifice, Lu Xun might still be hesitating. Without his sacrifice, Chen Gong might have been surrounded by Xu Sheng.

But I feel bad. ”

After saying this, Mi Yang sighed and gently let go of the water in his hand.

Then he stood up and said to Wei Yan behind him: "We must recapture Zhouling as quickly as possible."

Mi Yang can have personal feelings, but as the Grand Sima of the Han Dynasty, he cannot allow himself to be immersed in personal emotions.

After hearing Mi Yang's words, Wei Yan couldn't help but nodded.

After retaking Zhouling, we can focus on going to Gong'an to deal with Lu Xun.

But just when Wei Yan thought he had guessed Mi Yang's thoughts, Mi Yang's next sentence made Wei Yan open his mouth in shock.

"After retaking Zhouling, I will go to Jianye.

For the sake of the Han Dynasty and Zixia, I will personally seek justice from Sun Quan!"
