On the west bank of Poyang Lake, a two-wheeled carriage hurried forward surrounded by dozens of Wu army soldiers. Immediately sat two civil servants. One of them grabbed Che Shi tightly and shouted angrily: "Slow down.
, slow down, my heart and lungs have been knocked out by you."
The civil servant sitting on his right ignored him and kept urging: "Hurry up, faster, faster."
The driver waved his whip repeatedly, and the two horses panted heavily and galloped with all their strength. The carriage ran wildly on the official road. The soldiers urged the horses forward, each with a nervous look on his face, and carefully controlled the horse, for fear of getting into trouble with the carriage that was about to fly.
friction.
With a "clunk" sound, the scribe sitting on the left rolled his eyes and fell onto the carriage, but his hand was still holding Che Shi tightly.
The scribe on the right was shocked and shouted: "Stop!" With quick eyes and quick hands, he hugged the fainted scribe with one hand and pulled Che Shi with the other to avoid being thrown out by the bumpy carriage.
"Uh-" The driver roared, grabbed the reins, and slowly controlled the horse.
"Sir, wake up, wake up." The scribe was extremely anxious and slapped the fainted man's cheek. The fainted scribe raised his hand and strangled his wrist tightly. He opened his eyes and cast two sly glances.
It looks so hateful.
"Stop hitting me. If you hit me again, I will be beaten to death by you."
"Humph, it turns out that sir is not fainted." The scribe said angrily: "Then why are you delaying? If you delay for a moment, our army's losses will increase by one point."
"What does it have to do with me?" The scribe who was pretending to be dizzy sat up and straightened his clothes slowly. There was no trace of shame on his face. He squinted his eyes and looked at the scribe who turned red with anxiety.
"Let me tell you, if you continue to rush like this, even when I get there, I will have to rest for a few days before issuing orders."
"you……"
"What's wrong with me? Not satisfied? If I'm not satisfied, I'll go back now and find someone else who satisfies you."
The scribe was so angry that he jumped out of the car and beat his chest, but he did not dare to give the order to move forward. The soldiers next to him were also so angry that their eyes were burning with hatred. Many of them put their hands on the sword rings, but no one dared to actually attack the car.
The scoundrel drew his sword.
They were the envoys who had just arrived from Wuchang. The one who pretended to be faint was Wei Ba's envoy. His famous name was Pi Erding. He turned out to be a gangster in Chang'an City. By chance, he met Wei Ba who was traveling in Chang'an at that time, and also met Peng Peng.
Xiaoyu became an acquaintance and later went to Jingzhou to find a life. Because of that relationship and his ability to speak well, he now became Wei Xing's deputy.
After the armistice agreement was signed, Pi Erding shouldered the important task of delivering orders to Xiahou Xuan and Zhuge Dan. He followed Sun Quan's confidant Shi Yi all the way to Chaisang. When they arrived at Chaisang, they learned that Xia Houxuan had led the navy directly into Poyang Lake.
, was about to engage in battle with the Yuzhang Shipyard who had stayed behind. Shi Yi panicked when he heard this, and urged forward, hoping to pass the order to Xia Houxuan as soon as possible, end the battle, and preserve some vitality for the Wu army.
But Pi Erding quit. He found many excuses to delay the fight and wanted to wait until the fight was over. Now, he even showed the rogue he used to be when he was a gangster, forcing Shiyi to be furious, but there was nothing he could do.
Who asked Pi Erding to pass the command? If Pi Erding is unhappy, this battle will never end.
Shiyi knew Pi Erding's plan very well, but now that the initiative was not in his hands, it was useless for him to worry. In fact, he did not tell Pi Erding all the information, otherwise God knows whether this guy would just pretend
Even to death, he refused to take a single step.
Not only did Xia Houxuan arrive at Poyang Lake, but Deng Ai also arrived. Deng Ai led tens of thousands of people to cross the mountain, marching straight in, breaking every county, and every county, and they had already reached Nanchang, the county seat of Yuzhang. He and Xia Houxuan
After the rendezvous, water and land advanced simultaneously, and there was no way Yuzhang Shipyard could be spared.
This cannot be blamed on the incompetence of the Wu army stationed there. It can only be said that it is forced by the situation. The main force of the Wu army is now Shanyue. They have long been dissatisfied with being forced to join the army. When they saw the tribesmen holding the battle flags of the divine generals, they heard
Just a few words of persuasion to surrender, and I was overjoyed.
After surrendering, those soldiers loyal to the Wu State were few and far between, and they were unable to resist the internal and external attacks of these Shanyue. Deng Ai was almost without bloodshed along the way, and even if there were a few roadblocks, they were all trampled into smoke and dust in front of the Shanyue that filled the mountains and plains.
Only now did Deng Ai truly realize Wei Ba's intention of assigning Chen Ye to him as his deputy. The power of this god general's reputation was too strong.
Shiyi hoped to rush to Yuzhang as soon as possible to convey the ceasefire order and save some strength for the Wu Army Navy. However, although Pi Erding did not know the specific situation, he had incredible trust in the strength of the Jiaozhou Navy. He believed that as long as
Even if the navy enters Poyang Lake,
The 30,000 Wu troops stationed in Chaisang caught up with them, but they could not save the fate of the Yuzhang Shipyard. By eating the Yuzhang Shipyard, the foundation of Wu Jun's navy was hollowed out. For this purpose, he would use any shameless tricks.
To get it out, he even pretended to die and even threatened Shi Yi.
Shiyi was full of anger but had nowhere to vent it. Facing such a rogue who didn't even want a face, even if he had all kinds of clever plans, he could only look at the lake and sigh.
If your strength is not as good as others, so what if you are knowledgeable? Shiyi felt deeply sad and humiliated.
…
Deng Ai looked at the city towers of Nanchang from a distance, looked at the crowds of people on the city walls, smiled, and then ordered to move on. He had no interest in taking Nanchang now, his goal was the shipyard in Poyang Lake.
He set up a position between the shipyard and Nanchang City, leaving 10,000 people in formation to block the reinforcements, and then sent 10,000 people to attack the land camp of the shipyard. At the same time, Xiahou Xuan in Poyang Lake also rose
He raised the battle flag and commanded more than 30,000 naval troops to charge towards Wu Jun's water stronghold.
Zhuge Zhi led a large ship and dozens of medium-sized warships, taking the lead and charging into the Wu army that was arrayed to fight. As a surrendered general, Zhuge Zhi knew what he should do. He did not take the initiative to defect to Wei Ba like Zhuge Dan.
Rather, he is defeated and captured. If he does not fight hard and make more military exploits, his future career will not be smooth. Since
If you decide to join Wei Ba, you must show some sincerity. The general trend of the world is already obvious. Wu and Wei are no match for Shu Han, and Shu Han is undoubtedly the strongest and has the greatest potential for development. Now Jiaozhou Navy
It has just been formed and there are still many opportunities. If we don’t take advantage of this moment and quickly take over, will we wait until we dominate the world before we can exert our strength?
In several consecutive battles, Zhuge Zhi made great achievements, and this time was no exception. He acted as the vanguard without hesitation.
Not to be outdone, the Wu army sent two large ships to attack Zhuge Zhi.
When Zhuge Zhi saw the two tall ships coming from the opposite side, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. It was true that they were two tall ships belonging to the Wu army, but these two big ships were not the kind of tall ships he was familiar with.
There were no oars on both sides, and they were very similar to the large ships of the Jiaozhou Navy, except that they were not as big. More importantly, the speed of these two large ships was obviously faster than his ship.
Is this a new type of warship built in secret? Zhuge Zhi thought urgently while raising a battle flag asking for help. A while ago, Sun Shao had told them that Sun Quan was trial-producing a new ship at the Yuzhang Shipyard. Once successful, he would
Prioritize equipping them. If the Jiaozhou Navy hadn't arrived in such a hurry, perhaps these new-style building ships would have become their warships, but now they have become his opponents.
Zhuge Zhi did not dare to neglect, adjusted his direction, and rushed towards one of the ships.
The two tower ships were getting closer and closer. The soldiers on both sides rushed to the side of the ship and began to shoot at each other with their crossbows. Zhuge stood on the flying hut and clearly saw the water splash behind the opponent's tower ship. This was the same as that of the Jiaozhou navy.
The high-rise ships were exactly the same, but for some reason, the speed of these high-rise ships was only slightly faster than his, and there was still a long way to go compared to the high-rise ships of the Jiaozhou Navy.
Wu Jun has not realized this yet. They are now proud of the obvious improvement in their speed. They are high-spirited and ready to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop, especially the shameless traitor Zhuge Zhi in front of them. Against Fang Ge Zhi, they have a clear advantage.
"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and the two ships collided. Although Zhuge Zhi grabbed the railing, he almost fell off the flying house. The opponent's speed was faster and the deck was thicker, so his ship was hit hard.
It swayed sideways and almost capsized. However, the opponent was not much better, and the hull also tilted significantly. It was obvious that the opponent had no advantage in terms of balance performance.
"Shoot! Shoot!" Zhuge Zhi couldn't stand up straight and ordered repeatedly. After the surrender, his ships remained unchanged, but Zhuge Dan did not treat his brother unfairly and equipped him with twenty serial crossbow vehicles.
The soldiers on the ship were also given a full set of new equipment.
With the equipment provided by the Jiaozhou Navy, the combat effectiveness of Zhuge Zhi's men has increased by at least 50%, especially the twenty serial crossbow vehicles, which are so easy to use. They not only have a long range, a fast rate of fire, but also look beautiful. Compared with these new models
Comparing the equipment, the original equipment was simply too shabby to look at.
As Zhuge Zhi's order was issued, the twenty serial ballistas began to roar, shooting out a dense and fast rain of arrows, and pounced on the Wu army soldiers who were close at hand.
When the building ships collided, Wu Jun's new building ships took advantage, but when it came to shooting with bows and crossbows, they had no advantage at all. They could only raise their armor to protect themselves. In this way, the power of their arrow array was greatly reduced.
, sporadic arrows simply cannot play their due role.
Zhuge Zhi relied on his rich combat experience and understanding of new equipment to successfully regain the main power.
Behind him, Xia Houxuan and Zhuge Dan also went out at the same time. The two giant ships advanced side by side and attacked the Wu army unstoppably. This was a unique situation since the war began. In the past, they always attacked and defended to maintain their physical strength.
But now they went into battle side by side and launched the fiercest attack on the Wu army.
Because they also discovered the weirdness of Wu Jun's warships. Yuzhang Shipyard is the construction base of Wu Jun's warships. There are a lot of warships. If these warships have significantly improved speed, they will lose a lot of advantages.
Therefore, they must defeat these Wu troops in the first round and dampen their morale, otherwise the pirates may be shaken or even disperse.
The two giant ships cut through the waves and moved forward at full speed.
