Summoning the world to be one

Chapter 169 The Burning Yangtze River

Chapter 168: The Burning Yangtze River

Zhang Tu saw that Deng Jun had turned back to both sides of his own side, but his main ship was still directly in front of the other world. Was this exposing the main ship and allowing his side to attack?I don't understand what kind of tactics this is. The more Zhang Tu thinks about it, the more he doesn't understand, but the enemy's general is in front of him. Such a good opportunity, but he can't miss it. No matter what tricks Zhou Yu has, as long as he wins Zhou Yu, Deng Jun will not fight Since he collapsed, he ordered the whole army to speed up.

On the other hand, Zhou Yu smiled when he saw Wu Jun's speed slowing down. This was also expected by Zhou Yu. He deliberately exposed himself to lure Wu Jun to come. You must know that there are still five hundred lines behind him. The small boat piled up with hay and kerosene would ignite and rush out as soon as Wu Jun approached.

However, Wu Jun's charge still needs to be paid attention to, so Zhou Yu said to Gan Ning beside him, "Command all the troops to entangle Wu Jun tightly to the governor, don't care about casualties, and must drag the speed of Wu Jun's warship."

"Here!" Gan Ning replied.

Zhou Yu gave an order, and the Deng Jun warships on both sides of Wu Jun turned around and rushed towards Wu Jun in the middle of the river. A soldier shot by an arrow fell down the Yangtze River.

When Zhang Tu and others saw Deng Jun coming towards them, they didn't care to attack Zhou Yu's main ship, but stopped and entangled with Deng Jun.

Seeing that the time had come, Zhou Yu on the deck ordered: "Order the Chinese army to disperse and the small boats to attack. When they get close to the Wu army's warship, immediately light it."

"Here!"

In the formation, Zhang Tu and others were slowly suppressing Deng Jun. Suddenly, the main ship of Deng Jun in front suddenly dispersed.

At this time, driven by the direction of the wind, the five hundred boats rushed towards Wu Jun at an extremely fast speed. Zhang Tu and others were very puzzled when they saw this. A big fire was lit, and then rushed towards Wu Jun, and when the boat burned, the Deng Jun soldiers on board jumped into the water to escape for their lives.

"Quickly, order the boats to disperse!" Zhang Tu said in horror, his eyes widened as he watched the fire boat rushing towards him.

But both sides were occupied by Deng Jun, and Wu Jun could not disperse at all, and could only watch helplessly as the fire boat crashed into it.

When the fire boat collided with the Wu army warship, it quickly ignited the Wu army warship. Zhang Tu and others on the boat panicked, and quickly ordered: "Quick, quickly send people to put out the fire, fast!"

"Here!" The soldiers of the Wu army hurriedly put out the fire, but how could the oil be put out so easily? Soon, most of the warships of the Wu army were set alight, and with the entanglement of the warships of the Deng army on both sides, The Wu army on board suffered heavy casualties, and many soldiers of the Wu army jumped off the Yangtze River in order to escape for their lives.

"General, jump off the ship quickly, it's too late." Zhang Tu's lieutenant quickly persuaded Zhang Tu to jump off the ship. Originally, each warship had small boats in case of escape, but now there were Deng Jun's warships all around. Zhang Tu and others got off the warship, and they couldn't escape the encirclement of Deng Jun when they got on the small boat. If they wanted to escape, they had to jump off the ship.

Looking at the burning Yangtze River in the distance, Zhou Yu laughed and said: "Haha, the overall situation has been decided. Order the ministries to block the direction of Wu Jun's retreat. At the same time, the warships that are entangled with Wu Jun will retreat immediately. In addition, order the ministries to send all the small boats to the ground. Get ready, when Wu Jun flees for his life, salvage the prisoners!"

"Here!"

In desperation, Zhang Tu and others had no choice but to jump off the ship and flee for their lives. With the leadership of Zhang Tu and other generals, all the soldiers of the Wu army jumped down one after another. Soon, Wu Jun's warship slowly sank on the Yangtze River.

However, the Wu army was not completely wiped out. The warship where the general of the Wu army Han Cong was staying has been staying behind. When he saw the front army on fire, he didn't even think about it. Ten warships withdrew.

When the Wu army jumped ship to escape, Zhou Yu ordered all the ministries to take small boats out to salvage the prisoners, and quickly captured a large number of Wu army prisoners, and Wu army general Wen Leng was also captured alive by Gan Ning.

Zhou Yu ordered people to quickly clean up the battlefield, and at the same time sent a fast boat back to Xiazhi to inform Yang Yanzhao that the Wu army's navy had been defeated and there was no longer any resistance from the Yangtze River.

After the battle, Zhou Yu led the navy and escorted a group of Wu army prisoners back to Xiazhi.

In this battle, Deng Jun sank hundreds of Wu Jun warships, killed countless enemies, captured more than 200 Wu Jun soldiers, captured Wu Jun generals Zhang Tu and Wen Leng alive, and won a complete victory, but Deng Jun was not without losses. Yes, more than [-] Deng Jun warships also sank dozens of them, partly because they were hit by Wu Jun warships and sank, partly because they were burned by fire boats and fish in the pond, and they were ignited together. Thousands of Deng Jun soldiers were forced to jump into the river to flee for their lives. However, a large part was rescued by Deng Jun's boat that salvaged Wu Jun's soldiers.

When Zhou Yu returned to Xiazhi with the navy, Yang Yanzhao had assembled the army and was ready to board the ship.

After Zhou Yu disembarked, Yang Yanzhao walked over and said with a smile, "Haha, Dudu Zhou succeeded in the first battle and wiped out [-] Wu's naval forces. It's a complete victory. It's really gratifying and congratulatory."

"The general is laughing at you. This battle is due to the hard work of the soldiers, and the fact that the Wu army underestimated the enemy is the reason for this great victory." Zhou Yu said modestly.

Yang Yanzhao was very satisfied with Zhou Yu's humility and his attitude of not taking credit for pride. He nodded and said, "There is no need for Governor Zhou to be humble. The merits of this battle will be recorded truthfully. When the conquest of Wu is over and Princess Tai'an is welcomed back, the king will reward you personally." .”

"Thank you, General!" Zhou Yu thanked Yang Yanzhao, and then said, "By the way, General, I wonder if the ship is ready?"

Speaking of this matter, Yang Yanzhao suddenly looked sad, and said: "The ships are still working hard to collect them. You also know that there are not a few ships with a [-] army. For a while, there are not so many."

Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "General, in fact, we don't need so many warships."

"How do you say that?" Yang Yanzhao asked.

"General, Han Cong, the general of the Wu Army, escaped in this battle. Now I believe he has returned to Chaisang to report to Zhou Kai. After the defeat of the Wu State Navy, Zhou Kai must send troops to defend the riverside as soon as possible. Our army must first break through the Wu Army's river defense. Only then can we invade Yuzhang, and we can't put a hundred thousand troops on the Yangtze River, so we only need to prepare ships with [-] to [-] soldiers and horses. After our army breaks through the Wu army's river defense and establishes a firm foothold in Yuzhang, Just transport the large troops to Yuzhang." Zhou Yu explained.

When Yang Yanzhao heard it, he suddenly realized, and said: "Look at my brain, I have forgotten Wu Guo and Jiang Fang. Fortunately, Zhou Dudu is here, otherwise I will suffer a big loss. Well, Zhou Dudu will lead the army. Go east and attack the Wu army's Jiang defense, I will send you two generals, Zhang Fei and Gao Siji, and I hope Zhou Dudu can break through the Wu army's Jiang defense in one fell swoop and help our army enter Yuzhang."

"Here!" Zhou Yu didn't delay, and directly accepted the order.

There are two flowers blooming, one for each branch. Compared with Xiazhi's happy atmosphere, Chaisang is a little gloomy.

After Han Cong fled back to Chaisang, he reported the defeat to Zhou Kai. After hearing this, Zhou Kai vomited a mouthful of blood and passed out. After several efforts by the military doctor, Zhou Kai was revived. .

After waking up, Zhou Kai quickly summoned all the generals under his command, and said: "Now that the navy has been defeated, Deng Jun will soon advance eastward. Ma Li, Zhu Jun, Huan Heng, Ling Rong, Han Cong, wait five Each of them led [-] soldiers and horses to set up defenses at the riverside, and must block Deng's army.

"Here!" After the generals took the order, they immediately led their troops and left. Now that the navy has been defeated, Deng Jun will attack Jiangfang soon, and there is not much time left for Wu Jun.
