Chapter 199: The Battle of Yishui


However, it was too late, Yuan Shao not only didn't expect Gongsun Bai to attack with a fireboat, but he didn't even expect Gongsun Bai to find a ship in a short period of time, because the ships within dozens of miles upstream and downstream on both sides of the Yishui River were all searched by him, so there was no facility to block the fireboats, so he could only let the fireships pounce on the wooden water village with skyrocketing flames.

The fires on the river were one after another.

It gradually burned all over the river, and the fire slowly flowed down the river.

Straight to the Koto battleship.

As the fire drew nearer, it was gradually clear that it was a myriad of ships, piled with firewood, sulfur and saltpeter, and the flames were coming along with dozens of ships all over the river, and the whole river was full of fire and smoke.

Dozens of ships took advantage of the trend of going downstream, coupled with the inertia of accelerating forward before, and one after another the fireships were like fire dragons.

Unstoppable, rush forward. rumble A fireboat rushed into the water village, and the raging flames quickly ignited the water village, and then one after another fire ships slammed in, and the flames continued to rise.

The river wind hunts, the fire borrows the wind, the wind helps the fire, the flames continue to rise, spreading in the water village, and in the fire of the sky, countless Hebei troops panicked and fled in all directions.

At first, there were some Hebei generals who were shouting for help and blocking the incoming boats, but later saw that the fire was so great that they couldn't stop it at all, so they also ran away.

"Quickly retreat to the shore, leave the water village alone" Yuan Shao, who came to hear the news, saw that the water village that had been painstakingly built for more than a month was destroyed, although he was distressed, he did not panic, and ordered the soldiers to withdraw while drinking.

While commanding his soldiers to go to rectify the chaotic army.

In Yuan Shao's opinion, Gongsun Bai's fire plan is wonderful.

At most, it will lose ten miles of water village and burn a very small part of the oversleeping Hebei army, such a big fire.

It is impossible for the Gongsun army to attack by boat.

And as long as the army is put in order on the shore, even if Gongsun Bai attacks by boat, he will not be able to go ashore, and he will not be able to exert the terrifying power of the cavalry, so although he is anxious in his heart, he is not panicked.

Upstream of the river, a thick black shadow stretched across the river, stretching out to the opposite bank.

On closer inspection, it turned out to be a pontoon bridge, with three ships serialized side by side.

A pontoon bridge that stretches across the river The river wind hunted, and the night wind blew Gongsun Bai's clothes fluttering, and Gongsun Bai stood at the end of the pontoon bridge, commanding a cadre of soldiers to be busy.

Whoa, whoa, whoa Three ships fell from the void and landed on the water, impartially, just at the front of the pontoon, dozens of soldiers jumped on the ships, skillfully throwing the iron anchors in the boat into the water to fix them.

Then a large iron nail was put on the boat, and it was better to say that it was an iron nail than a small iron pillar, which was long and thick.

Firmly nailed to the gang, the soldiers behind him followed.

The bow and stern were first connected with thick ropes, so that the pontoon was extended one step further, and then three side-by-side sterns were joined together.

Then more than a dozen soldiers held solid wooden planks and set them up on the deck.

So that the two ships that are connected end to end have no gap, and they have become thoroughfares.

That's it.

One by one, they continued to fall from the sky, and then they were fixed by the soldiers of the Gongsun Army, and then continued to stretch forward, and it seemed that they had extended to the length of 23 on the surface of the river.

Boom, boom, boom The sound of burning flames and the shouts of the Hebei army were heard downstream, and all the officers and men were in high spirits and shouted loudly: "Speed up, the fireboat plan of the military division has been successful" Ho ho Seeing that the work in the hands of the soldiers was as fast as flying, Gongsun Bai also quickly released the wrestle, speeding up the process of building the pontoon bridge.

That day, Guan Hai reminded him that if there was a bridge on the river, he would be able to step on the company camp.

In one day, he swept away almost all the trees within ten miles of Yicheng, and made hundreds of ships in order to build this pontoon bridge, once the pontoon bridge was built, Yishui became a thoroughfare.

As the fire grew in the lower reaches of the river, the pontoon bridge was built faster and faster, and finally the pontoon bridge reached the shallow water on the south bank.

Whoa, whoa, whoa The last three ships fell in the shallow water, splashing everywhere, splashing all over Gongsun Bai's body, Gongsun Bai just wiped a handful of water droplets on his face, and shouted: "Quick" Dozens of soldiers cheered in unison, jumped onto the ship, connected the three ships to the rear ship, tied the three ships together, and then drove several large wooden stakes on the shore, and then fixed the front three ships on the wooden stakes with iron cables.

The pontoon bridge is complete Gongsun Bai shouted loudly: "Quick, cross the river" Before the words fell, a ball of flowing fire took the lead in rushing on the pontoon bridge, and then gently jumped down beside Gongsun Bai, rubbing Gongsun Bai's arm affectionately, it was flying blood.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Yun and the flag soldiers also flew over, and a big "Gongsun" banner hunted in the night wind, ordering the white horse Yicong and Mo Yun on the other side of the river to cross the river in turn.

Thundered With the sound of horses' hooves on the pontoon bridge and the swaying of wooden boats, the horses and horses carried the knights across the pontoon bridge and assembled on the shore.

In just half an hour, the three thousand white horse Yicong and the eight thousand Moyun riders had all assembled on the south bank and reorganized the queue.

Gongsun Bai danced with a dragon spear in his hand and shouted loudly: "Kill" kill kill kill The iron horsemen, who had been holding back for nearly two months, roared in unison and rushed downstream.

In the blazing firelight, 80,000 Hebei troops are gathering in chaos, many people have not yet reacted, they don't know what happened, neither armor nor weapons, and even some people are crying out of the fire one after another, and more Hebei troops are dizzy with smoke.

The entire river bank was in chaos, and the army of 80,000 people was like a behemoth monster, and in a hurry, the generals of the Hebei army roared like thunder, and where could they straighten out the queue in a moment and a half Thundered At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly thundered in the upstream direction, and the shouts of killing shook the sky, making the chaotic Hebei army even more chaotic.

Under the moonlight, the flags were rolling, and more than 10,000 healthy riders were rolling like iron streams, unstoppable.

"Form a formation, meet the enemy" Yuan Shao in the chaotic army looked shocked.

At this moment, he felt a deep panic.

Rao is he has already laid out a trick to plot against Gongsun Bai, just waiting for the time to come, he will kill Yicheng, besiege Gongsun Bai and Yicheng, once forever in trouble, but he didn't expect Gongsun Bai to be so difficult to provoke, stunned in the situation that his 80,000 army was guarding the river, and killed him hard.

Regardless of the whole war, this battle looks at the situation, it seems that he has lost again, so how willing he is "Meet the enemy, meet the enemy, there are many of us, I don't believe that we can't defeat the Gongsun Bai thief" Yuan Shao hissed and roared.

Three days, it is estimated that it will only take three days at most, and Gongsun Bai will be wiped out, but he was counterattacked by this guy before he died, and he won more with less, Yuan Shao was simply furious.

However, the Hebei army tasted the power of the white horse Yicong, and saw that the white horse Yicong who was galloping in the front was replaced by a heavy armored iron horseman, and the group of monsters wrapped in steel looked so hideous in the moonlight, so gloomy, and the huge fear in their hearts made this group of chaotic troops have no fighting spirit at all, and many people ran away.

Click With the roars one after another, those Hebei army generals were so angry that they slashed and killed those deserters with knives before they could suppress the rout, but at this time, Bai Ma Yicong and Mo Yunqi were already rushing closer. rumble This time, Gongsun Bai even saved the crossbow arrows, led Bai Ma Yicong to directly crush over, and viciously crashed into the chaotic army of the Hebei army.
