At that time, Qi's advantage will be gradually reduced.
Upon hearing the order, a large number of soldiers took the risk and returned directly to the cabin here, and used the iron chisel they had prepared long ago to cut through some weak areas at the bottom.
The river water quickly poured into the cabin.
There were still many soldiers who were too late to scuttle the ship, or after the scuttling, the water and flames poured in and could not escape, and they were directly burned to death or drowned in the cabin.
The soul of Qi State's army, all officers and soldiers serve their lives.
Because of their efforts, the five most important treasure ships and 27 building ships all sank into the Yangtze River.
In the dense fog, the Wu army came from all directions, and the Qi army was either killed or injured. More than 1 sailors and [-] warships of various types were surrounded by them, all turned into ashes on the river.
The Liyang water battle was the biggest blow that Qi's navy suffered after it became famous all over the world.
Qi's Inland River Fleet was seriously injured after this battle, and the casualties of the warships exceeded any previous losses.
After Zhou Yu wiped out Su Fei's tribe with kerosene, Taishici's and Sun Kuang's tribes, who had already crossed the river on land, began to attack Shouchun's Ganning tribe.
Chapter 616 Stepping into a Dangerous Situation
"Ding! Su Fei, under the command of the host, was killed!"
Cao Anmin, who was far away in Hebei, suddenly received such a news, and was a little dazed.
Su Fei was the deputy commander of the Inland River Fleet, Gan Ning's right-hand man, and now he died suddenly in battle.
Could it be that something happened in the south?
Thinking of this, Cao Anmin didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly asked Zhan Zhao to send the latest battle report.
Under Shouchun City, at the second watch, Gan Ning and a group of people were cautiously approaching the city gate.When there were still five or six miles away from the destination, Gan Ning suddenly stopped all the troops from advancing.
Lu Meng was a little anxious by his side, seeing the team stop and move forward quickly.
"General, Shouchun is just around the corner, why don't you stop moving forward?"
Gan Ning glanced at Lu Meng who was beside him and said in a low voice, "Let's advance slowly first. Tonight's night attack, I always feel that something is wrong. Lu Wenlong is also a famous general of Wu Kingdom. He is good at battle, so it will make it so easy for us to win?"
"General, now the arrow is on the string and has to be fired! Even if you are timid, you can only fight." Lu Meng said eagerly.
"Zi Ming misunderstood, I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. It's just that I will be loved by the king to lead an army here. If the sneak attack fails, I will have no face to face the king and my colleagues!"
Lu Meng nodded slightly and said, "That makes sense! Then according to the general's opinion, we should give up this sneak attack?"
Gan Ning was also a bit reluctant to give up this opportunity. After thinking for a while, he said: "All the soldiers abandoned their horses and fought on foot. I will lead 5000 people to advance, and Ziming will lead 5000 people to the rear. Take the horse and retreat here, and cover my retreat in time!"
When Lu Meng heard this, he agreed again and again, and the two hit it off immediately.
"Dismount, all soldiers dismount." Gan Ning ordered immediately.
Although the soldiers of the Qi army were a little puzzled, they could only follow orders.After all, they are all naval troops. Although the Qi army has no shortage of war horses after winning Youning and Ping Sanzhou, it is impossible to provide too many war horses to the navy army.
Abandoning the horse at this time, on the one hand, can ensure that the horse will not be damaged, and on the other hand, it can also avoid exposure caused by riding a horse, but it is also a good way.
Because there were no horses, the Qi army arrived at the city of Shouchun a quarter of an hour later than expected.Looking at the familiar city in front of him, Gan Ning's blood boiled in his heart.
If the city can be taken down, it will be extremely important for their next battle.
At this moment, there is silence on the city wall, only the torches of a few patrols are looming.Gan Ning led the soldiers and quietly moved the Juma outside the city gate, and quietly dismantled all the defensive facilities.After the whole process was completed, the enemy troops in the city seemed to have not noticed Gan Ning's arrival at all.
"Up to the city!" A few soldiers quickly took out the hook lock and threw it up, caught the city wall, and quickly climbed up.
Not long after, the city gate was completely opened by Gan Ning.
"Come on!" Gan Ning took the lead and rushed into Shouchun City, and many soldiers behind him also charged quickly. Among the entire sneak attack team, he was the only one still riding a horse.
With the help of war horses, the speed can be imagined.
Driven by him, the soldiers of the Qi army were like tigers descending from the mountain, rushing to kill as quickly as they entered the land of no one.
As soon as Gan Ning rode his horse over the Urn City, the horse collapsed into the horse pit that the Wu army had set up earlier, the horse's leg bones were broken by its own momentum and fell to the ground.
"No, I've been tricked!" Gan Ning secretly yelled, and the first thing he did when he got up was to shout and order the soldiers to retreat at full speed.It is absolutely impossible to set up a horse trap in such an important place as the city gate. Now this is obviously used to deal with them who robbed the camp.While urging the soldiers to retreat, Gan Ning was glad that he did not bring too many horses.
Otherwise, just now, I'm afraid it will be severely damaged.
"Kill!" A cannon rang, and there were constant shouts of killing from all sides in Shouchun City. A general rushed out with two guns in front of him. This person was none other than Lu Wenlong.And the left and right wings also kept shouting and killing.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!" Seeing Lu Wenlong, Gan Ning didn't dare to fight, and fled quickly with his soldiers.While retreating, they dropped a large number of fire starters on the road to block the pursuers.
Because of Gan Ning's wit, the ambush that Lu Wenlong prepared in advance did not receive much effect.I also admire this general of the Qi State in my heart.
Unfortunately, tonight is doomed to be a bloody night, even if Gan Ning can charge out here, it will be difficult to escape the net they have already set.
A few miles away, Lu Meng saw the fire in the city, so he knew that Gan Ning had been ambushed.Regardless of Gan Ning's previous instructions, he led the remaining [-] sailors to kill Shouchun.
With the help of war horses, the ten thousand sergeants were extremely fast, and it took less than a quarter of an hour to arrive at the gate of the city.
Unfortunately, it was precisely because of Lu Meng's actions that Gan Ning was in a desperate situation.
The space at the entrance of Shouchun City is already narrow, if there is no such thing as Lu Meng and Gan Ning breaking out, no one can stop his way.But because of Lu Meng, the two soldiers and horses were crowded together, and the cavalry in front wanted to turn around, but the way was blocked by the friendly troops who came later, and the breakout soldiers and horses led by Gan Ning in the city were completely blocked and moved here. no.
"Kill, don't leave Gan Ning!" Lu Wenlong took the opportunity to attack from behind, and a large number of Qi soldiers who could not escape died under their hard crossbows.
Gan Ning was riding on the horse, seeing this situation, he also cursed endlessly.
"The one riding the horse must be Gan Ning. Aim all the bows and crossbows at Gan Ning." Lu Wenlong saw a brave warrior at the gate of the city from afar, and knew it was Gan Ning, so he quickly ordered the crossbowmen around him to point at him Gan Ning attacked.
Gan Ning himself was to be blamed. His own horse had broken legs and could not move, but he robbed Wu Jun of a horse in order to break out.
In such a conspicuous place at the gate of the city, a war horse not only exposed himself, but also exposed him to an extremely dangerous environment.
"Whoosh!" The arrows attacked quickly, and countless soldiers of the Qi army who were fleeing in a hurry killed countless people.
Gan Ning kept pushing away the arrows with the big knife in his hand, but the horse under his crotch was hit by four or five arrows, and fell to the ground in unbearable pain.
"Gan Ning is dead, Gan Ning is dead!" Lu Meng saw Gan Ning fall off his horse and shouted loudly.
Gan Ning is the commander-in-chief of an army, the core and cohesion point of the army soul.If Gan Ning was killed in battle, the morale of the three armies would immediately dissipate.
An army without morale is useless no matter how well equipped it is.
The surrounding soldiers were already under heavy siege, when they suddenly heard the news of Gan Ning's death, their morale was in turmoil.Regardless of continuing to fight, he ran for his life in a hurry.
Gan Ning's face was ashen, in the chaos of the army, he could hide it from others, but he couldn't hide it from his ears, the one who shouted just now was none other than Lu Meng, whom he had always trusted.
At this moment, he finally understood that everything was caused by Lu Meng.It was he who deliberately asked himself to attack Shouchun, it was he who left five thousand soldiers behind him, it was he who deliberately blocked all the soldiers at the gate of the city, and it was he who deliberately deceived people at this critical moment.
