Chapter 154: The Battle of Crossing the River (14)

Chapter 154: Battle of Crossing the River (14)

Zhou Yu was prepared before the war and knew that the enemy might send out the outpost troops, and when the situation was wrong, he turned around and fled. Therefore, he had originally arranged the fleet into a crescent shape, with the two pointed ends heading towards Hengjiangjin. The outpost troops that had just encircled and annihilated the enemy only used the middle warships. Then, the two pointed ends of the crescent went down the river and tried to go around from the side and surrounded the Danyang navy.

Unexpectedly, Fan Neng and Yu Mi escaped were really slow. Before Zhou Yu's encirclement had been formed, the Danyang Navy ships began to turn around and return on the river.

With the eyes of Zhou Yu, he saw the enemy's retreating in panic, and hurriedly ordered: "Beat the drum and advance!"

The intense drum sounded "dongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong" and was heard, centered on the Taishan Tower ship, and was conveyed to the ears of the soldiers of the Jinfan Army.

"Brothers, come on, row." Jiang Qin had arrived at the bottom of the "Taishan" ship at some point, shouting, encouraging the sailors who were rowing desperately.

"Brothers, rush." ​​Gan Ning's walking boat had already rushed to a place two hundred steps away from the Danyang Navy fleet, and the Danyang Navy soldiers clearly heard his shouts.

"Run" the soldiers on each warship were shouting...

Different voices and the same fighting passion gather on the river surface, and even the strong wind cannot dissipate.

Fan Neng and Yu Mi's faces became even more serious, and their brows were frowned tightly into a Sichuan-shaped shape. They kept urging the soldiers on the boat to speed up the frequency and paddle quickly. Fan Neng also ordered the archers on the boat to concentrate and prepare for battle.

At this moment, the Danyang Navy fleet no longer had unified command and was scrambling to stop the oars, turn sideways, and turn around. If you look down from the air, it would be like these more than 200 ships participating in a sailing competition, and they were currently making circles around the midway point. However, the turning postures of the sailing boats in the sailing competition were very graceful, and now the turns of these warships were messy and chaotic, and there was no way to say anything.

When escaping, who will pay attention to whether your posture is beautiful?

The Danyang Navy was originally going against the wind and against the current, while the Jinfan Army was going against the wind and along the current, occupying the advantage of the right time and place. In a moment, the Jinfan Army's warships rushed down the wind and down the river, and quickly approached the Danyang Navy's fleet.

"Prepare to shoot arrows quickly~~" Fan Neng hurriedly ordered the archers on the ship, and Yu Mie went down to the bottom floor of the warship to urge the sailors to speed up the paddle.

"Swoosh~~swoosh~~swoosh~~" The archers of the Danyang Navy had just taken the bow and raised the arrow, and the Jinfan Army's wolf-toothed arrow broke through the air. The arrows were in a hurry, and with the help of the wind, the power of these arrows increased greatly, and the damage caused to the Danyang Navy also increased a lot.

"Swoosh~~swoosh~~swoosh~~" Before the Danyang Navy could fight back, another round of crossbows shot. For a moment, the Danyang Navy was injured and could no longer organize a counterattack. Even though dozens of archers insisted on shooting out the feathered arrows in their hands, they could not fly far against the wind and fell into the rolling river.

Fan Neng was shocked. It was the first time he had learned the power of the "Piaoxue Bow". He thought that his soldiers were passively lazy. He grabbed the bow and arrow from an archer beside him, then set the arrow, pulled the string, and aimed. Not far behind his ship, a snare was speeding up. Fan Neng aimed at an enemy soldier standing in front of the snare. He relaxed his hand, and with a "swoosh~~", the feathered arrow flew out of the air and shot straight away.

The soldier fell down and the feathered arrow shot into his left leg. Fan Nengzheng was secretly happy and suddenly felt a cold murderous aura rushed towards him. With years of combat experience, Fan Neng knew that this was an arrow shot from the archery master in the enemy's army, not only accurate but also fast!

With instinct, Fan Neng sided his body hard to the left. In the dark, a thick wolf-toothed arrow rubbed past his nose. The arrow cluster scratched the tip of his nose and brought a drop of blood. The wolf-toothed arrow was very fast and shot into the body of a soldier behind Fan Neng with a "puff~~". Fan Neng saw that the soldier's eyes immediately dimmed, and then fell to the ground.

"Good arrow technique!!" Fan Neng's shooting skills were not weak, and he couldn't help but secretly praised the enemy who shot archers, thinking that he was not his opponent.

Immediately afterwards, more wolf-toothed arrows flew into the sky, taking away the lives of more Danyang sailors.

"Retreat quickly" Fan Neng shouted in a thick voice. He swung the knife and flew a wolf-toothed arrow that was barely shot, and took a few steps back. Fortunately, his ship had turned around at this moment, and the sailors were hanging up the sails. The wind quickly blew the sailors, giving the ship the motivation to move forward. In addition, the sailors under the bilge paddling desperately, the boat began to move faster and faster.

The Danyang Navy's movements were very fast, and under Zhou Yu's command, the Jinfan Army's movements were faster. In particular, the warships on both wings quickly descended along the river, trying to surround the entire Danyang Navy's warships.

Fan Neng and Yu Mi's ships were the most agile. After discovering the Jinfan Army's intention to fight, they rowed out of the encirclement at the fastest speed. The other ships were not so lucky. They were surrounded by the Jinfan Army's warships. Although their number of soldiers was more than that of the Jinfan Army, the warships were much smaller and much worn, and their weapons and equipment were far from the same level, so they could only be in a passive state of being beaten.

Seeing that the enemy had already surrounded the enemy, Zhou Yu gave the order, the "Taishan" ship began to accelerate, and with its own inertia, it directly hit the Danyang Navy's fleet.

"Oh my God, what kind of ship is that? Why is it so big?" A Danyang navy widened his eyes in horror. The "Taishan" tower ship in the night was like a thick wall, and like a roaring lion, opening its bloody mouth and pounced towards the Jijun.

"Boom~~" A deafening sound came, and the "Taishan" tower ship hit a ship of the Danyang Navy heavily. The ship could not hide in time. The soldiers on the ship found in pain that the front end of the ship of the "Taishan" tower was covered with iron, and dozens of sharp triangular sharp knives were installed, which directly stabbed dozens of holes in the ship, but it was intact.

The river water quickly poured in from the hole in the hull. More than 300 soldiers on the boat tried to block the hole in vain. Under the leadership of a small school, dozens of sampans were released and they all jumped onto the sampans to escape.

As soon as they jumped onto the sampan, they raised their hands obediently. It turned out that Gan Ning led dozens of boats to surround them, aiming their swords, guns, bows and crossbows at them. When will they not surrender?

After shooting out several rounds of bows and arrows and killing the enemy in large numbers, the remaining Jinfan Army warships moved the ships closer, everyone fought bravely, and they all took the lead, jumped onto the Danyang Navy's warships and started close-knit hand-to-hand combat.

After Fan Neng and Yu Mi drove the boat out of the encirclement, they looked back at their fleet without any power to fight back under the siege of Jinfan Army, and couldn't help but feel heartbroken and sad. The two were more helpless. At this moment, even if they turned back to join the battle, it would be useless. The huge gap in warships, weapons, equipment, and morale was destined to be a huge gap in strength. In addition, the opponent occupied the right time and place, and with preparation, how could this battle be won?

Fan Neng and Yu Mi had to drive the boat to Hengjiangjin's own camp in dejectedly. After returning to the camp, they prepared to transport all the supplies and then lead the remaining troops in the camp back from Wujun to Wanling.

The two of them had just returned to the gate of the camp and were about to shout when they heard a cannon sound in the camp. More than ten warships broke out from their own camp, lined up, blocking their way.

A strong general stood on the bow of the warship in the middle and said loudly: "Fan Neng! Yu Mi! Xu Sheng of Langya is here, and you and others are not surrendering quickly!"

Fan Neng and Yu Mi looked at each other and felt a chill in their hearts. They knew that their camp had been captured by the enemy. They thought they must have been hiding downstream and occupied the Hengjiangjin Fortress after their army set off.

The drums rang out like thunder, and Xu Sheng directed the warships to surround Fan Neng and Yu Mi's boats in the middle, and then began to attack.

In this battle, Fan Neng and Yu Mi Ning died without surrendering. Fan Neng died in battle, and Yu Mi Heng committed suicide by killing himself, and the rest of the people surrendered.

As the rising sun rose, Zhou Yu was wearing a white battle robe, holding his hands on the river bank, and his face was calm.

Last night, the Jinfan Army showed its power and broke through Danglikou Fortress in one fell swoop, captured Zhang Ying, general under Liu Yao, and attacked and occupied Hengjiangjin Fortress, destroying Fan Neng and Yu Mi. In this battle, the Jinfan Army suffered 150 people and injured more than 400 people. A total of 11,000 enemies were wiped out, of which 8,000 were captured, and countless food and supplies were seized. The battle across the river was a complete victory.
