Because it is a water war, it is impossible to send spies to investigate the situation within thirty miles like a land war.
The navy from both sides, one from north to south and the other from south to north, soon approached.
"Is this Huang Zhong's fleet? Seeing it is better than hearing it a hundred times, hahahaha, we can expect a great victory, we can expect a great victory." Zhang Yun stood at the highest point on a building ship and saw Huang Zhong's fleet.
That messy look suddenly let out a loud laugh and said.
"Ha ha ha ha."[
The soldiers on the ship became more confident when they saw one of them, and they all burst out laughing. Eventually, Zhang Yun's entire fleet burst into loud laughter.
These bursts of ridicule were like a tsunami, coming one after another incessantly. Their morale was greatly boosted.
"The four building ships really think highly of us." Although they met on a narrow road, Huang Zhong and others were not surprised. They had already entered Xiangjiang River. Whatever situation they encountered was normal.
This is the last line of defense in the north of Xiangyang.
However, when he saw the four building ships, Huang Zhong frowned slightly, feeling that it was a bit tricky. The advantage of the building ship was too great. He could fight at a distance and attack at close range. It was like a water fortress.
.
"Jingchu has strong power. Although the army is not good, there is never a shortage of various war materials. Encountering building ships is also expected." Wenpin said from the side.
"Well, no matter what we encounter, we will just act according to the strategy." Huang Zhong nodded and said, and then Huang Zhong yelled: "Beat the drum and act according to the strategy."
"Dong dong dong." Suddenly, the drum beats that sounded when Huang Zhong entered Xiangjiang sounded again. However, this time the tone changed slightly.
"Change the formation." Following the sound of the drums, countless officers immediately shouted, telling the soldiers of their own fleet to start changing the formation.
There were hundreds of disorganized ships of various types, and they immediately began to adjust in an orderly manner. The ones outside dispersed, revealing countless warships loaded with straw in the middle.
Now, the forces in Xinye and Fancheng are really at a point of life and death. No matter whether it is the East Road, the South Road, or the North Road, these three armies are not allowed to fail.
Because all the armies along the way were destroyed, the whole game was lost.
Therefore, although Huang Zhong was full of confidence, he was also very cautious. He made a pre-battle analysis and made a decision to attack with fire.
Jingchu's navy had not practiced for a long time, and Zhang Yun, Cai Hao and others were not very proficient in military affairs. This gave them the opportunity to attack with fire.
There is only an army of fifteen thousand, and there is no need for hundreds of warships. The reason why there are so many warships is to give Zhang Yun's army nowhere to escape.
Huang Zhong's army attacked from top to bottom, and its momentum was like a rainbow. On the contrary, Zhang Yun's navy attacked from bottom to top, and its momentum was much weaker. In addition, Huang Zhong's army attacked down the river, and it was difficult for Zhang Yun's army to turn around.
Escape.
As long as there are hundreds of warships spread throughout the Xiangjiang River, all of them are set on fire, turned into fire ships, and sailed down the river. Wouldn't Zhang Yun's army become a turtle in a urn?
The only thing that people are concerned about now is that the enemy has four tower ships. If the tower ships are firmly blocking the front, Huang Zhong's fire attack may not be fully effective.
But Huang Zhong also knows that it is up to people to plan things, and it is up to God to make things happen. He has done everything he should do, and whether it succeeds or not depends on God's will.[
"kill."
After the formation was set up, the veteran general Huang Zhong roared loudly, which shook the whole country and was very penetrating.
Immediately, the archers who had already been prepared lit their rockets and fired at the ships loaded with countless straws.
"Swish, swish, swish." Countless rockets poured down, and each warship was immediately ignited. A sea of fire suddenly formed on the Xiangjiang River.
"Turn around and go back quickly."
Zhang Yun was stunned by this scene, and then he yelled hastily, like a lost dog.
