Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 130

Above the river, the two armies confront each other.

After Gan Ning received Zhang Yi's military order, he immediately sent Li Jun as the vanguard, forming a formation of fifteen large ships, and heading down the river.And he himself, after marshaling [-] large ships, immediately followed Li Jun's fleet.

Huang Gai and Sun He went up the river first, and their fleet had blocked the river near Niuzhu camp.They didn't know why, Sun Quan gave them an order to defend Gan Ning and attack Dantu.Could it be that the assist has a premonition that Gan Ning will come to attack?

But it's possible if you think about it. Now that the Sun family can say that the sun is setting, it is also possible that Zhang Yi sent Gan Ning to Dantu to intercept Sun Quan's northward march.

However, Huang Gai didn't understand that Sun Quan had already planned to surrender before, and he still needed land and sea troops to come out.It makes sense to send a navy to intercept Gan Ning. If Sun Quan wanted to go north, he would definitely need to intercept Gan Ning to prevent Gan Ning from blocking the river.But what is the use of sending Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai?
Sun He also couldn't figure it out.As an important minister of the clan, Sun He can be said to have watched Sun Quan grow up, but he still hasn't figured out what Sun Quan wants to do!
Just when they were still wondering, Li Jun's fleet appeared. Looking at the fifteen big ships, Sun He couldn't believe it. How did Zhang Yi get so many big ships?
"Excuse me, does this ship have any weaknesses?" Sun He couldn't figure out how to defeat the big ship on the opposite side.

"It's slow, maybe it can be attacked by fireboats." After Huang Gai finished speaking, he shook his head and said, "Before Zhou Gongjin and I discussed that they wanted to burn these big ships, but Gan Ning was not fooled. Now we don't have a geographical advantage. It's almost impossible to burn them."

"Then what should we do?" Sun He was not only a little embarrassed, "Should we still pick up the horses as usual?"

"What else can we do if we don't go as usual?" Huang Gai stood up, "I'll leave this to you. I'm going to see if I can win a big ship."

"You are too risky!"

"This is a chance to win!" Huang Gai jumped into the boat and sailed towards the front of the battle.

"Everyone listen to the order, prepare the hook and lock, and prepare to catch the string and snatch the enemy ship." Huang Gai ordered loudly to the surrounding boats while winding the hook and lock.

Li Jun stood at the bow of the boat, watching the actions of the Jiangdong navy, and knew their plan, "I want to seize the boat! How could it be as you wish?"

"Order the ships to only shoot long distances, but not to meet the enemy!" Li Jun asked the messengers to inform the ships.

"promise!"

A water war is about to break out!Li Jun's boat is tall and condescending, which is quite advantageous.However, Jiangdong water has many soldiers and ships, and the speed of the ships is very fast, so they can always get close to the big ships.The small boat that Huang Gai was in approached a big ship, and his boat was not small, but could now be counted as a fighting ship of the big ship.There are not many fighting ships in the Jiangdong navy, it is too big, and there are fewer shipbuilders who know how to build fighting ships.

The big ship Meng Kang built was several feet taller and a foot wider than the fighting ship, and if it was loaded on it, the fighting ship might be knocked over.

Generally speaking, fighting ships are command ships, but they can also be used as ships carrying archers.Those who charge into battle are called 艨艉, also written as Mengchong. They are ships carrying melee soldiers and are covered with skin to prevent arrows.Make a small opening on the side of the ship and thrust a spear out of it to destroy the enemy ship.

However, this kind of bludgeoning is not enough to deal with the big boats made by Meng Kang, because the boats built by Meng Kang are very thick and cannot be pierced at all.It is also impossible to deal with a big ship with a fighting ship, because its top is open, and it cannot stop the arrows pouring down from above.

Therefore, Huang Gai now uses the fighting ship as a shield.After getting closer to the big ship, he personally led the people to throw the hook and lock at the big ship, and then climbed onto the big ship.

"The enemy is on board!" A soldier spotted Huang Gai and the others, and immediately rushed up brandishing their weapons.

"Finally come up!" Huang Gai pulled out the ring-shou knife from behind, rushed up and kicked an enemy soldier away, then swung down another enemy soldier, knocked another enemy soldier away with his shoulder, and rushed to the ground. Beside the archers, let's start killing!
There was movement on the big boat, which also attracted Li Jun's attention, and he immediately ordered: "Lean over there!"

"How long will General Gan arrive?" Li Jun asked.

"About another hour!"

"That's another hour!" Li Jun said: "Let's rush over, don't let the Jiangdong army take the warship!"

"General, that seems to be Huang Gai?" A soldier reminded, "I have seen Huang Gai before, so it should be him."

"Huang Gai!" Li Jun was overjoyed, he never thought that he could get a big fish. "Quick! Come over quickly! Knock that battleship away for me!"

"Boom!" Li Jun's ship knocked out the fighting ship that was hooked on the big ship. Most of the Jiangdong navy who were still climbing up fell down, and the others were also knocked down.Li Jun's big ship was lucky because it was prepared before the collision, so the soldiers quickly stood up and fired at the fighting ship.

"Let's go!" Li Jun yelled, and then he held up a wooden plank and built a bridge between the two big boats.

Some soldiers also built a plank bridge, and then followed Li Jun and jumped onto another large ship.

"Kill!" Li Jun led his men and rushed directly behind Huang Gai's department, attacking Huang Gai from the front and back.

Huang Gai was still fighting, but his soldiers had already spotted Li Jun coming from behind, and immediately stopped him, "General, there is nothing we can do, let's retreat!"

Huang Gai looked back and found that there were only more than 20 soldiers left under him, while the opponent still had nearly a hundred soldiers, and they were still jumping from another big ship.It fell short!Huang Gai had no choice but to order a retreat.

Fighting while withdrawing, Huang Gai soon withdrew to the side of the ship, wanting to jump onto the fighting ship.

"Huang Gai, where are you going!" Li Jun rushed over from behind, hugged him and threw himself off the big boat into the river.

In the river, Huang Gai still wanted to struggle, but his water skills were not as good as Li Jun's, so he sank under Li Jun's drag, and he couldn't move after a cup of tea.To be on the safe side, Li Jun had to stop for a while before swimming up.

At this time, Gan Ning's rear had already arrived, and he plunged straight into the Jiangdong navy from both sides. Because they were going down the river and were unstoppable, the Jiangdong navy quickly retreated.

Li Jun was rescued by a large ship, along with Huang Gai's body.

Gan Ning saw that Li Jun had made such a great achievement, and couldn't help feeling a little bitter, "If I had known Huang Gai was here, I would have been a pioneer."

Li Jun smiled and said: "The general has a great achievement in hand, why do you compete with me for this small achievement?"

Gan Ning also laughed and said, "How can you do such a small job? Killing a general is like capturing a city. Brother Li's promotion is not far away!"
