The reason is that the Jiangdong navy dare not fight us on the narrow water surface.
You should know that our army's large ships are equipped with artillery, and our army's warships can almost cover the entire river surface on a narrow water surface.
In this way, the Jiangdong navy had no room to maneuver, so they had to fight us head-on.
But in this way, they have no way to avoid the firepower of our artillery.
What awaited them was nothing more than another big defeat. "
When the Jiangdong Navy led by Zhou Yu first came into contact with the Dahan Navy, it suffered from this boring loss.
At that time, a hundred three-masted battleships lined up facing the river, and countless black hole muzzles pointed at the unsuspecting Jiangdong navy, giving them their first major defeat in their lives.
Knowing that the artillery of the Dahan navy is sharp, generals with rich experience in water warfare like Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin will naturally not foolishly confront Cao Jun head-on.
After hearing Sima Yi's explanation, Jiang Wan suddenly said, "They are waiting for us to enter Pengze, so they can use the vast lake to deal with us?"
"A child can be taught!" Sima Yi nodded with a smile, feeling very satisfied with this cheap junior who is so transparent.
Jiang Wan did not show a happy expression, but asked with some concern: "The only shortcoming of our warships is their maneuverability. If the artillery wants to attack the enemy, the hull must be aimed at them from the side. This also gives them An opportunity to use mobility to disrupt our firepower."
At this time, Lu Yan said: "Don't worry, there are Xingba, Dabao, Su Fei and others here."
"Dabao? Who is Dabao?" Gan Ning asked suspiciously.
"Uh..." Lu Yan realized that he had slipped his tongue, and quickly explained with a reason: "Xu Sheng, isn't his nickname just Dabao?"
"Is that so?"
Anyway, Xu Sheng is on another ship, no one can see through Lu Yan even if he makes up nonsense reasons.
Sure enough, when the Han navy entered Pengze, the gates of the water villages stretching along the bank of the Jiangdong navy opened almost at the same time! …
Facts have proved that Sima Yi's analysis is correct.
There were no less than ten water villages, thousands of large and small warships swarmed out, and in an instant, the curved lake surface like a crescent moon gushed out.
Cheng Pu led the central army himself and commanded it from the center. Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin each led an army, and the left and right wings advanced side by side.
Zhou Tai embraced the steel lance, half-closed his eyes, and stood proudly on the deck of the largest three-masted warship.
This three-masted warship is the latest production of Jiangdong Shipyard. Its size and quality are already very close to the three-masted warship of the Han Navy.
It has to be said that Jiangdong, which has strong shipbuilding strength and experience, does have the capital to control large rivers and small rivers.
After leaving the water village and coming to Pengze Lake, Zhou Tai saw Cao Jun's fleet that covered the sky and the sun at a glance!
More than 150 three-masted warships were separated by a distance of about three feet, and there were countless small warships densely packed.
The soldiers of the Han Navy may not be as good as the Jiangdong Navy in terms of water warfare experience, but in terms of the quantity and quality of warships and weapons, the Han Navy undoubtedly has the upper hand.
In Peng Ze's battle, both sides took out the guy at the bottom of the box.
Whether it's Lu Yan or Lu Su, they all know that after Peng Ze, the Jiangdong Army will no longer be able to compete with the Han Navy!
Peng Ze is the place where they will finally fight!
End, or, hope?
This battle will be the one that will determine Jiangdong's final fate!
Chapter 588 I'm sorry, I'm a wall hanger
Cao Cao has now controlled nearly two-thirds of the territory of the Han Dynasty. The pressure brought by this behemoth made almost every general in Jiangdong feel a little breathless.
But in the face of oppression, some people will want to succumb, and some will rise up to resist.
Most of the civil servants in Wujun are now trying to persuade Sun Quan to surrender.
However, Lu Su, Cheng Pu, Zhou Tai and others who advocated the war of resistance to the end temporarily suppressed them by virtue of their military power.
But they knew that if Peng Ze lost this battle again, Jiang Dong would be defeated as well!
"This is Jiangdong's last chance to defeat Cao Jun's navy. God, open your eyes and let us win!" Jiang Qin couldn't help muttering to himself as he looked at the big Han navy who was rapidly deploying in front of him.
Zhou Tai's half-closed eyes also opened suddenly, and without saying a word, he lifted the steel lance in his hand, raised his head slightly, and waited for the command of the Chinese army!
Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were not disappointed. Cheng Pu, who was in the middle army, decisively gave the order for the whole army to attack!
"Dongdongdong!"
"Woooooo!"
The sound of war drums and horns sounded suddenly, and thousands of warships, large and small, of the Jiangdong Army launched a high-speed charge on the wide river!
Similarly, on the side of the Han Navy, the sound of war drums also resounded through the sky, and the more than 150 warships began to turn their hulls, so that the tall ones faced the Jiangdong Navy who was charging at full speed!
The Jiangdong Navy, which had been prepared for a long time, and those small warships rushing to the front, such as 艨艟 and 舸舸, immediately dispersed.
They kept the distance between each other as far as possible, and also minimized their losses when they might be shelled.
Jiangdong's small warships rushed towards the Han Navy from the front and scattered from both sides.
The Han navy that had already been deployed, and the small warships following the three-masted warship also accelerated forward one after another, preparing to prevent the small warships of the Jiangdong Navy from approaching the three-masted warship.
However, to the surprise of Gan Ning and others,
More than a hundred large ships in Jiangdong even risked being bombarded, rushing at full speed and breaking into the range of Cao Jun's artillery!
But since the Jiangdong navy sent them to their door, Gan Ning, Su Fei and Xu Sheng would naturally not be polite.
"ignition!"
"Fire!
"
Gan Ning, Su Fei and Xu Sheng all operated a cannon by themselves.
Amidst the frantic roar, the cannon roared again, venting its destructive rage!
"Boom boom boom!
"
Amidst the sound of continuous shelling, the black shells slammed into the Jiangdong Army's large ship fiercely.
But Jiangdong Army was not afraid at all, kept the distance between each other as much as possible, and then rushed to the position three hundred steps away from the Dahan Navy!
At this position, the Jiangdong Navy has lost nine large ships.
But in Cheng Pu's view, this loss is totally worth it!
Cheng Pu tried his best to drink: "
catapult!
turn! "
The catapult of the Jiangdong Navy is the first to show off!
Immediately afterwards, the warships of the Jiangdong Navy also began to aim at the Dahan Navy from the side.
A stone the size of a human head was thrown by a catapult into Cao Jun's warship.
But although these stones seem to be powerful, very few of them can actually hit the warship of the Han Navy. …
The speed of the stone bullets was still a bit slower, and the warships of the Han Navy were not guaranteed to die, so of course they would not stand and be beaten.
But what the Dahan navy didn't expect was that while the big ships in Jiangdong were throwing stones, they were also aiming sideways at the Dahan navy.
The big ship of the Jiangdong Navy has neat holes on its side.Under Cheng Pu's order, densely packed arrows protruded from the neat holes!
Xu Sheng looked at the front in surprise, and he muttered to himself with some puzzlement: "That is... a bed crossbow? Could it be that the Jiangdong Army is stupid, what effect can a bed crossbow have on a big ship? Even if it is shot at the battleship, it will hardly cause any major damage!"
But Xu Sheng's thoughts hadn't finished yet, when the hundreds of large warships of the Jiangdong Army suddenly shot out huge crossbow arrows with whistling sound!
Gan Ning, who was at the forefront, had already seen the long clay pots tied to the thick crossbow bolts, his expression changed immediately, and he thought of a very common but tingling thing, "Menghuo Oil!
"
Obviously, Su Fei, who is experienced in water warfare, also thought of this, and he quickly ordered the warship to avoid the crossbow arrows.
But the speed of the crossbow arrows was much faster than the stone bullets, and many arrows pierced deeply into the walls and decks of the three-masted battleship almost in the blink of an eye.
Under the violent impact, the clay pot shattered in an instant, and then threw the fire oil to every corner of the three-masted battleship!
At the same time, the catapults on the big ship of the Jiangdong Navy also replaced the stone bullets with flaming fire bombs, and the small warships that were close to the Han Navy also all moved towards the three-masted warship that was shot by the crossbow arrows. Shoot the rocket in your hand!
The Dahan Navy had a very unlucky warship, which was hit by four crossbow arrows, then two Molotov cocktails, and then was shot all over by thousands of rockets.
Before the soldiers on the ship could react, a burst of flames accompanied by explosions instantly engulfed the entire three-masted warship.The soldiers on board screamed and had to jump into the lake to protect themselves.
Gan Ning looked at at least five warships engulfed in flames around him, gritted his teeth with hatred, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Since the formation of the Han Navy, when did they suffer such a huge loss?
On the lagging flagship, Lu Yan looked at his burning warship with a serious expression on his face.
"When we all thought that the Jiangdong Navy would use small boats to harass and contain our army's firepower, the Jiangdong Navy unexpectedly chose to be tough.
And judging from the coordination of catapults, crossbow arrows and Menghuo oil, they are obviously well prepared.
We are still careless. "
Listening to Lu Yan's words, Sima Yi and Jiang Wan couldn't help feeling a little worried, "Sir, what should we do next?"
"I believe that Xingba and the others must have a way to deal with it, so you don't have to worry too much."
Having said that, Lu Yan still secretly activated the [Army Finding the Enemy] skill.
Lu Yan only used this skill once when he raided Wuhuan, because that time made Lu Yan feel the feeling of being squeezed dry, so he kept hiding it and dared not use it easily. …
But now, seeing his own army fell into a disadvantage due to being targeted by the opponent, Lu Yan decisively activated this halo skill that can increase the movement speed of the entire army and be more sensitive to the enemy's motives!
That's right, he, Lu Yan, cheated!
As a hanger, wouldn't it be a pity for his status not to hang up?
Therefore, after swallowing a handful of Huiqi Dan in one gulp, Lu Yan silently took out another scroll, apologized, tore it up and read out: "Long shot and strong attack!"
[Long-range strong attack: Slightly increase the attack, range and hit rate of long-range units within the range, lasting for a quarter of an hour! 】
This is a one-time consumable that Lu Yan opened in a big gift package last month, and it has officially come in handy today.
With the opening of [Army Searching for Enemies] and [Long Shot Attack],
The soldiers of the Han Navy, who had been a little disgraced by the fire, suddenly felt trembling all over!
After that, they felt that their actions not only became faster, but whether it was bows and arrows or artillery, the range, power and accuracy of them all increased a little!
Don't look at it's just a little improvement, this is a large battlefield with thousands of warships and more than 20 people.
A little improvement for everyone is a qualitative leap for the entire army!
Thus, Cheng Pu, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and others were horrified to find that Cao Jun's shells seemed to have eyes, and greeted them on the ship.
The previous hit rate of less than [-] in [-] has now turned into [-] in [-] or [-]!
This time when a round of bullets rained down, nearly twenty large ships of the Jiangdong Navy were actually hit!
And those small boats that were fighting melee at close range were quickly suppressed in the rain of arrows that Cao Jun suddenly became extremely sharp!
"Cao Jun, something is wrong!"
Chapter 589 The Rout of the Jiangdong Navy
Cao Jun's sudden rise and his exaggerated hit rate made Cheng Pu, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin feel tremendous pressure.
Just when Zhou Tai was thinking about how to deal with it, a guard beside him suddenly exclaimed,
"General, be careful!"
Zhou Tai turned his head, and without thinking about it, he immediately threw himself forward on the deck.
"boom!"
It turned out that it was the mast behind them that had been shot, and then fell right in the direction of Zhou Tai.
If it wasn't for the reminder from the guards, Zhou Tai might have been hit right.
The mast was smashed down heavily, creating a huge gap in the bow of the ship. Although the hull did not suffer much damage, it dealt a huge blow to morale.
Zhou Tai just got up,
