The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 687

On the Daliang River outside Xiangping City, Li Bao and Cen Yongqi lay in ambush for a few days, because the boss Gan Ning sneaked into the Chixin Camp, so this task was given to his deputy, Cen Yongqi, and Li Bao was Lu Heng's new summoner. The talents of the navy are put together in the navy this time.

"Brother Li, do you think His Majesty will really destroy Xiangping today?"

"Cen Yongqi is a rough man who knows that Xiangping must cross the Daliang River to escape to the north, but he still doubts whether the army can capture this city today. You must know that the siege has been stalemate for many days."

"There is news from the officials that they should take action, but Commander Gan went ashore directly to participate in the cavalry battle, but today the Xiangping City was broken and missed this opportunity to make great achievements." Li Bao joked with Cen Yongqi while watching the situation on the water joking.

"Hey, Boss Gan is too sad." Before Cen Yongqi could speak, Xin Ming said jokingly.

Half an hour later, "Brother Qi, Brother Li, they moved! Xiangping is really broken!"

Cen Yongqi and Li Bao looked at the direction Xin Ming was pointing. Sure enough, the North Water Gate of Xiangping opened and a fleet of fleets rushed out. They were obviously very confused. Moreover, this fleet used large commercial ships, which were obviously not water. Among the military ships, the three big ships headed by them are particularly conspicuous.

"Brothers are doing something! Charge at full speed!" Cen Yongqi roared!All Jinfan soldiers roared loudly.

"Fire arrows! Kill them all!"

"Why is there a navy intercepting here?" Jin Wushu looked at the arrow rain in front of him and roared loudly. Liu Yu beside him was also sweating coldly. This person knew more about the origin of this navy than Jin Wushu.

Because this navy hangs a big banner with the word "Song" on it, this is the number one navy in the world!
Jin Wushu didn't know how powerful the water force was, but he knew that the Jurchens didn't know how to fight on the water, and they were all landlubbers. If they were entangled in the river, they would definitely die. He said angrily: "Charge over!"

"Rush over!" A roar came from Liu Yujun, and the desire to survive inspired the morale of these soldiers.

"Excellent skill, eight oxen crossbow release!" Cen Yongqi roared, one after another, black spears were fired from the ships of the Song Dynasty Navy, piercing through one after another of small and medium-sized commercial ships with incomparable accuracy. The result of the river water pouring into the ships is self-evident.

"Everyone help with archery!" Jin Wushu saw the Liu Yu Han army who was like a soft-footed shrimp, and still roared to ask the Jurchen to come forward to help. There is actually not much difference between shooting arrows on a bumpy boat and shooting arrows on a war horse.

Of course, there is a premise that you can’t get seasick. Fortunately, this is on the relatively calm Daliang water, not the Yangtze River, nor the Yellow River, or the sea. These Jurchens endured the discomfort and started shooting.

With the addition of the Jurchens' superb archery skills, some unwary Jinfan Camp soldiers were hit by arrows.

"Dare to play arrow rain with us? Eight oxen crossbows for rockets!" Li Bao looked at the soldiers on the leading ships who were obviously not Han Chinese but dressed in Jurchen costumes and began to shoot arrows, and ordered to use arrow rain to suppress them, and they were rockets!
"Duo! Duo! Duo! Duo!" The rockets shot more arrows than the original Jurchens, hitting the bow of the fleeing ship!Not only that, the Da Song fleet is still accelerating towards this side.

At the same time, Tai Shici in Xiangping City also pursued to the north of Xiangping, but what made Fengqiying a little dumbfounded was that the north of Xiangping turned out to be a water gate, and the Jurchens obviously prepared boats to cross the Daliang River.

"Commander, what should we do? We don't have a boat, so we can't chase after him!" Gao Huailiang looked depressed, and Cao Kerang, Tao Sanchun and other generals also looked disappointed.

Taishi Ci recalled the terrain and then gave the order: "They are going to Xuantu County. They will go upstream of Daliang River and go around Xuantu to see if they can catch up."

That's when Tai Shici made his decision, but he didn't know that Lu Heng on the water of Daliang also left a back-up man to intercept him with his water army.

At this time, more than half of Jin Wushu and Liu Yu's ships had been lost. One of the three large ships was penetrated and the other was set alight by rockets.

You must know that the majority of the Jurchens on these two large ships are Jurchens, so the Jurchens, who are elite and fearless of death, were first frustrated and trapped in the city as bastards, and now they are sinking under the water and becoming bastards.

"Turn around, go downstream, find a gentle place to cross the Liangshui, let's go!" Seeing this scene, Jin Wushu knew that a frontal breakthrough was absolutely impossible.

It's better to escape to the shore while the remaining strength is still there. He Jin Wushu doesn't believe that this navy dares to catch up with the land!
Even if the two Jurchen ships are lost, there is still a large ship of his own and a few medium-sized ships with a total of thousands of riders saved.

"Turn the bow!", "Turn the bow!"

However, Jin Wushu's order made a big man under Liu Yu's command startled, and he hesitated when he wanted to speak.

No one dared to oppose Jin Wushu's order, everyone started to turn the bow. Jin Wushu was worthy of the potential of a famous general, and instantly saw the breakthrough on the battlefield, but Jin Wushu obviously forgot one thing.Although Liu Yu's army is a Han army, they are also Han people close to the grasslands of Xuantu County, not the Han people along the coast, and they are not good at water warfare at all.

It's good to be able to help row the boat, but don't expect to be very skilled in controlling the boat!
At least it is impossible for a large-scale fleet to turn around without collision at such a close distance!The big man who wanted to persuade him before saw this!
So there was a scene on the battlefield, that is, the U-turning fleet collided with each other and knocked over, and some were intertwined. In short, it was very chaotic.

"Haha! Look at these people who don't know how to fight in water! Rush over and kill them all!" Li Bao, Cen Yongqi, and Xin Ming all laughed when they saw this scene. The winning ticket was right in front of them.

But there is one thing that no one expected, that is, on the boat that Jin Wushu and Liu Yu were on, there is a person who is good at steering the boat.

This person is Xu Wen, the general under Liu Yu who wanted to persuade him before. This person was originally the Song Dynasty general Mingzhou (Yinxian County, Kuaiji County during the Three Kingdoms period, and later Yinzhou District, Ningbo City) guard general in Song Dynasty. He is not only good at sailing but also good at water Wars, especially naval battles. In history, this person took refuge in Liu Yu and then took refuge in the Jinren.

It is said that this man was very powerful and could use a fifty-pound sword, which was called "Xu Dadao". Some people also said that this person was the prototype of "Xu Dadao".

Xu Wen was highly skilled in martial arts but was used by Liu Yu as a bodyguard, and his ability in water combat was not used at all. In Xuantu County, a place close to the grassland, there was no water combat for him to display, so no one knew about his ability in water combat.

"My lord and the sixth prince, we cannot continue like this. If we trust the general, we are confident that we can lead our lord and the sixth prince to escape from the siege."

Xu Wen finally couldn't stand it anymore, and for the sake of his own life, he wanted to speak out and recommend himself. At this time, Jin Wushu saw the chaotic scene and knew the fatal mistake he had made. Xu Wen just gave a step down and Xu Wen took over This big ship.
