King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 954 Eastern Front Water Battle (2)

"Old General Cheng!" Wiping the blood on his face, Gan Ning said to the embarrassed Cheng Pu, "Then Zhao Hu really came after him!"

Cheng Pu looked back at Zhao Hu's fleet carefully, and said in a low voice, "Sure enough, it's not what the governor expected! Act according to plan!"

"Okay!" Gan Ning nodded heavily, looking at the front with stern eyes, I have lost so many Jiangdong disciples, and I just want to lure this kid Zhao Hu here!Don't make any mistakes!
Gan Ning leaned down and kept urging the soldiers beside him to row forward quickly, finally the shadow of the Jiangdong army water village in Piling appeared.

"Keep moving forward!" Gan Ning yelled, brandishing a steel knife, Jiangdong's retreating fleet did not rush into the water fortress to defend the location, but ignored the existence of the water fortress, and went directly across the water fortress and continued to oo.

"Huh?" Zhao Hu's navy, who was chasing after him, was very puzzled when he saw the action of Jiangdong's navy. Jiangdong's soldiers and horses are now retreating. If it is wise, they should immediately return to their water fortress to defend against their own navy. It's easy to cross Piling!Why did they suddenly ignore their naval forces and continue heading west?
"General! Do you want to continue chasing the enemy!" the lieutenant asked anxiously.

After defeating Soochow's fleet, Zhao Hu's fleet also lost a lot. After all, they collided and fought head-to-head. Jiangdong's navy was indeed unambiguous. Zhao Hu's thirty Sea Breeze warships were unscathed, but now Zhao Hu has two choices, whether to continue to chase the defeated Jiangdong army westward, or immediately attack the Piling water army's stronghold. , then Zhao Hu can be regarded as making money, but that is the result of Jiangdong's soldiers and horses entering the water village to defend according to common sense, but now Jiangdong doesn't care about the water village all the way to the west, what does this mean?
"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" Zhao Hu heard what Li Lin often said, but after thinking for a long time whether he should chase or attack the water village, Zhao Hu immediately went to "Send an order to attack the Piling water village!"

"No!" Everyone greeted, and the fleet immediately headed south to Piling Water Village in Jiangdong.

This order was also issued by Zhao Hu after planning. To chase the defeated Jiangdong army, the poor should not chase after it. After all, it is the first time for Zhao Hu to fight on the Yangtze River. Although he has already obtained a map of the waters of the Yangtze River from Cai Mao in Jingzhou, Zhao Hu has also seen it. After all, this is the first time. Zhao Hu is afraid that if he continues to chase, he will be ambushed by the Jiangdong navy, so it is better to be on the safe side. He will attack the Jiangdong water village first, get supplies and rest, and then continue westward. , Attack Nanxu according to the plan!

As the water village in Piling approached slowly, Zhao Hu called out cautiously: "Brothers! Be careful!"

"Roar!" Just after a big victory, the morale of the Liao army's sailors was high, and they even despised these Jiangdong sailors. Three times in a row, three times in a row, they were defeated by their own side. His title of Jiangdong's number one navy in the world is truly It was because they fell into the Yangtze River, and all the generals and soldiers were eager to march towards the Piling Water Village, because they all thought that the Jiangdong soldiers and horses had already fled, and even if there were still enemies left in the Piling Water Village The army is just a bunch of small shrimps.

"Bang!" The scorpion in front slammed into the gate of the Jiangdong water village. The gate of the water village shook violently, but it was not knocked open.

Zhao Hu smiled, and said: "This Jiangdong water village is really strong! Come on!" With a wave of his hand, a dozen or so people jumped out from the front of the boat, one from the deck, jumped onto the gate of the water village, and climbed up. Climb a few times, find the key position, and pull out all the rivets that hit the nails. Zhao Hu is very good at breaking the gate of the water village. It turned out that the gate of the water village in Jiangdong was broken open today.

"Boom!" With a sound, the gate of Jiangdong water village collapsed, and Zhao Hu's water army was no longer obstructed, and all the soldiers cheered and rushed into the water village of Jiangdong water army.

The water fortress in Piling was not small, and Zhao Hu rushed in with his warship, and saw that there was no resistance in the water fortress as expected.

"Damn it! Why is there no one there!" A soldier kept cursing.

"Hey! Kid Jiangdong, your grandpa Liao Jun is here! Come out! Come out! Don't be a coward!" The soldiers kept yelling.

Zhao Hu, on the other hand, kept observing the surroundings cautiously. All the warships were off the air, and the sails were not even raised. It seemed that Jiangdong soldiers and horses knew that they were defeated and had already retreated.

Zhao Hu waved his hand and said, "Stay away, there are still enemy troops in the water village!"

"Promise!" The flags were ordered to interact, and the fleet that had gathered together immediately dispersed, and Zhao Hu led the sea wind warship to remain in the middle without moving.

Strange!That's too weird, did Jiangdong abandon his defense?Just because of this victory of his own, the water village in Piling will be abandoned right away?Is this Jiangdong so lacking in fighting spirit and fighting spirit?
Zhao Hu's brain was thinking quickly. He had always been a straightforward and murderous black-faced man, but he rarely showed a pensive look.

"No! It's still not right!" The more Zhao Hu thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. The first two battles with the Jiangdong Navy, although they were big victories, the Jiangdong soldiers were also defeated, but it can be seen that the fighting spirit is still there. Tigers and their tactics are too advanced instead of retreating, how could it be now...

"Send an order to withdraw from the water village!" Zhao Hu's more than ten years of combat experience alerted Zhao Hu, and he immediately yelled.

"Ah?" The lieutenant at the side asked suspiciously: "Be alert, you have already captured the water village of Jiangdong soldiers, why not grab the supplies, food and grass in his water village first, so that the brothers can rest for a while, and then go west! "

"No!" Zhao Hu snapped at the moment, and shouted: "Get out of the water village immediately, and leave behind twenty brothers in warships!" If I was too sensitive, I didn't waste this opportunity to take down Jiangdong Water Village!

"Huh! I want to run! It's over!" Just as the warship of the Liao army was once again integrating the team towards the middle round, a loud shout sounded suddenly.

"Ah..." Then there were shouts of killing.

"Eh! Could it be..." Hearing such a voice, Zhao Hu was startled, and immediately realized that his own judgment had come true. There must be an ambush by the Jiangdong navy in this water village!
Zhao Hu immediately ordered: "Quick! Quick! Integrate the fleet and withdraw from the water village while defending!" He then directed the sea breeze ships to move backwards. After all, his thirty sea breeze warships are treasures.

"Tiege of the Liao army! Let's see where you are going!" I saw countless Jiangdong water troops suddenly jumping out from the warship docked in the water village, all of them were archers, and fired at Zhao Hu's fleet frantically. Arrows are not simple soldiers, they are rockets!
"Ah! Live! Live!" A round of rockets shot over, and the outstretched Liao army and navy immediately screamed. They were full of complacency and defenseless when they came to the big victory.

"Crash!" With a loud shout, several warships at specific positions slammed into the warships of the Liao army, directly knocking the warships of the Liao army sideways.

"It's not good! General! The warship of the brothers is surrounded by the enemy!" The lieutenant yelled.

"I know!" Zhao Hu yelled angrily, and continued to shout: "Leave them alone! Get back immediately and get out of the water village!"

"General!"

"Quick! Otherwise, Du Nima will be surrounded and die here!"

The Liao army's water army dispersed after entering the water stronghold. Zhao Hu was cautious and said that when he withdrew from the water stronghold, he wanted to form a fleet to withdraw, but before he could react, Jiangdong's ambush soldiers had already killed them. , and wanted to reserve a good position, a dozen warships rushed out immediately, and scattered Zhao Hu's already scattered fleet extremely quickly, destroying them one by one!

"Sea Wind Army! Listen to the order!"

"exist!"

"Retreat immediately! Exit the water village!"

"promise!"

Zhao Hu knew that he had been tricked, and those Jiangdongnan barbarians lured him in, and why Zhao Hu felt uneasy when he entered the Jiangdong water village, it was because the layout of the water village was very weird and unreasonable , Now Zhao Hu understands that this is specially arranged by Jiangdong soldiers and horses in order to divide their own warships into extremely fast. I knew that I would want Piling to attack, and my side was caught off guard. I was thinking about how to fight the Jiangdong navy on the Yangtze River. How could I have these preparations, so I made a decisive decision and had to retreat to keep the elite!
"Withdraw! Withdraw! Withdraw!"

Shouts of retreat sounded on the Liao army's warships, but the Liao army's warships that were called to the back were okay, they could charge and kill the Jiangdong troops, but the Liao army's warships that were too aggressive , has been surrounded by the Jiangdong Water Corps, and can't get out at all...

"Fire oil! Fire oil! Throw it to me! Throw it!" On Jiangdong's warship, Pan Zhang kept roaring. Although he had already surrounded the Liao army, it must be said that the resistance of the Liao army was quite tenacious. So Pan Zhang had to use a more ruthless method, that is, he wanted to throw kerosene cans on the battleship, and directly burn the soldiers of the Liao Army on the battleship to death...

"Ah..." There were screams one after another, and many warships had already emitted black smoke.

Seeing such a scene, Zhao Hu knew that he could not be impulsive at this time, he had to withdraw, and he could only abandon those brothers!

"Quick! Get out of the water stronghold quickly!" Zhao Hu made up his mind, tightened his fist, and ordered to retreat. Amidst the screams of the Liao army soldiers and the black smoke rising from the Liao army warships, Zhao Hu Hu rushed out of Jiangdong's water village with the remaining [-] or so warships, and [-] of them were sea breeze warships.

First, there was a big victory, and then there was a big defeat, which directly lost half of the warships. Fortunately, the elite troops were all on the sea breeze warships, otherwise the loss would be even greater. Looking at Liao who has become a purgatory In Junshui Village, the lieutenant asked anxiously: "General! Are our troops retreating?"

"No!" Zhao Hu shouted heavily, with a murderous look on his face, he said viciously, "Xiangxi!"

"No!" Seeing Zhao Hu's expression, the deputy general also froze, and immediately sent the order.

Most of the veterans under Zhao Hu's command were pirates, and it was commonplace to be brave and fierce. They used to live with their heads pinned to their waistbands, but since they joined Zhao Hu, they became regular soldiers, and they were promoted all the way. Few people have become lieutenant generals and lieutenant generals. All the brothers know that as long as you follow General Zhao Hu, as long as you work hard, as long as you are not afraid of death, you will surely succeed. All the brothers are equally divided, so all the brothers under his command are absolutely loyal to Zhao Hu, and Zhao Hu regards them as his brothers, and the bloody contacts are like thieves. Those navy troops under Zhao Hu's command who were surrounded by the water stronghold were still resisting desperately, which made Pan Zhang's navy unable to quickly deal with these navy troops and chased them out...

"kill!"

"Roar!"

The momentum is still high, and even because of this defeat, the momentum of the navy soldiers under Zhao Hu's command has skyrocketed, and the whole body is filled with murderous aura.

"I want the Jiangdong navy to bury my brothers with me!" Zhao Hu suddenly roared angrily against the river in front of him.

"To be buried with you! To be buried with you! To be buried with you!"

All the soldiers catered to them one after another. It was Zhao Hu who ordered the fleet to enter the water stronghold, so there was such a scene, but no one would complain. They were originally a group of desperate masters. Fighting good brothers seems to be the happiest thing for them!
"Hmph! Since there are fakes in the water stronghold, then the water army who wrote about the retreat must have really retreated, and there should be no ambush ahead!" The hatred value towards Jiangdong skyrocketed, but Zhao Hu also had to calmly analyze it, and died in battle. There is no problem, but the master's plan is the most important!So Zhao Hu continued to march westward according to the old plan, and had decided that as long as he encountered the Jiangdong navy, he would fight with his life!It will definitely not make these Jiangdong children feel better!
"Order! The Seawind Army is advancing at full speed!"

"promise!"

Zhao Hu gave an order here, and the [-] sea breeze warships immediately speeded up and rushed forward, directly three times happier than the Liao army warships behind.

"The remaining 23 warships will guard the rear for me to prevent the enemy from coming from the rear!"

"promise!"

When the flag was waved, Zhao Hu's fleet immediately divided into two teams. The Sea Breeze warships in front formed two olive-shaped formations with thin ends and a width in the middle. Arranged in the shape of wild goose wings in the opposite direction, protecting the rear of Zhao Hu's Haifeng fleet.

"General! Jiangdong naval warships are found ahead!" More than half an hour later, at the speed of the Haifeng warships, they had gone two-thirds of the distance from Piling to Nanxu, and the watchman on the love mast immediately sent out alarm.

"Hmph! These Jiangdong navy troops are quite fast!" Zhao Hu stared at him, and immediately shouted: "Send the rear army to prevent the enemy from attacking from behind, Haifeng army! Come up immediately!"

"Promise!" The enemy is right in front of you, and the eyes of all the soldiers under Zhao Hu's command are already red with anger. In the cabin, the sailors who are stepping on the towers to drive the four wheels on both sides of the sea breeze warship immediately speed up, which heralds the sea breeze. The warship speeded up, and it was thinking about killing the Jiangdong warship.

"Hmph! The Liao army's water army is really difficult to deal with! They came here so quickly!" Looking at the front of Jiangdong's boat formation, Gan Ning held the steel knife in his hand and said viciously.

"Heh!" chuckled twice, Huang Gai nodded in the middle, and said: "The governor's estimation is indeed correct, Pan Zhang and Zhu Ran can't stop Zhao Hu in Piling Water Village! "

"Public Fu, it seems we have to rely on it!" Cheng Pu, who was on the other side, patted the railing in front of him.

Hearing Cheng Pu's words, Huang Gai shouted angrily: "Huh! The Liao army don't want to bully me in Jiangdong! As long as it is a warship that they can use, I can build it in Jiangdong!"

Just look at the strangeness of the warship that Huang Gai is standing on here. Where is the weirdness? It is very similar to the Sea Breeze Warship, but it is bigger and wider than the Sea Breeze Warship, not bad!This is a warship with Jiangdong characteristics imitated by Jiangdong, who suffered twice under the hands of the Haifeng Army, imitating the Haifeng warship.

"Hehe! Although there are only ten warships! But it is enough to deal with Zhao Hu's defeated army!" Huang Gai slapped the pierced mast heavily, and shouted, "Jiangdong navy!"

"No. [-] in the world! No. [-] in the world! No. [-] in the world!" All the Jiangdong navy immediately followed Huang Gai's words and burst out drinking.

"Kill!" Huang Gai pointed forward with the steel knife in his hand, only saw the fifty or so warships, and immediately thought of the black shadow of the Liao Army warships appearing in front of him, and killed them.

"Tabuchet! Let it go!"

"Prepare the crossbow!"

Attacking Zhao Hu from a distance means he has an advantage, but since Huang Gai has left behind fifty warships and knows how to break Zhao Hu's catapult, of course he will follow that method. Zhao Hu's catapult There were still not too many casualties, not to mention that there were [-] sea breeze warships, and there was only one catapult on each of them.

"Spread out on both sides and go straight to the Chinese army!" Zhao Hu immediately ordered, and the warships were immediately divided into two teams, blocking all the warships thinking about Jiangdong, and the number of Jiangdong warships was superior, so they had to rely on the sea breeze Mobility wins!

And in the rear, the twenty Liaodong navy warships were not spared, and they suddenly saw a way between the sea breeze warship and the rear army warship, not rushing to the rear of Zhao Hu's sea breeze army, but He rushed directly to the twenty warships.

"Children from Liaodong! Chen Wu is here!" A loud shout sounded, and Chen Wu, who suddenly came over, rushed directly from the side to the formation of wild goose-winged boats of the Liao army's navy.

The Liao army's water army didn't change their face. Looking at the Jiangdong water army, which was still superior in numbers, they immediately killed them frantically.

"General! At the end of today, the general will fight to the death with these southern barbarians from Jiangdong!" The deputy general who was by Zhao Hu's side commanded the 20 warships here to protect Zhao Hu's rear in the name of Zhao Hu.

The lieutenant glared at Chen Wu's naval fleet that had come over, raised his steel knife, and shouted angrily: "Brothers! Kill! Kill this Jiangdong barbarian!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The Liao army officers and soldiers were excited, waiting for their blood-red eyes to kill the Jiangdong navy...
