Chapter 1338: Preemptive Strike!


"This guy Zhou Yu, the opening dish is indeed the fire attack."

Guo Jia, who was dressed in Tsing Yi, looked at the countless fires that suddenly ignited on the opposite warship.

There was no fluctuation in his strange eyes.

He was still like a country, gentle but dangerous, even with a hint of fire.

A trace of laziness: "General Gan, do you have any countermeasures?"

Gan Ning heard this, smiled slightly, waved his hand, and waved the flag behind him.

Many soldiers simultaneously removed the blankets that were tightly covered on the battlefield.

In an instant, trebuchets were exposed on the deck.

The slender arms of the trebuchets were quietly pressing on the deck, and the trebuchets were tied by cables.

Quietly placed in the basket There were stones of different sizes.

Gan Ning had witnessed the power of these behemoths with his own eyes.

The sound of the falling rocks piercing the air and the flying wood chips that smashed through the deck of the warship seemed to have flashed in Gan Ning's eyes.

"What a pity.

If the decisive battle had not been fought on the river, Zhou Maitian's newly invented water dragon car could have been used for testing here."

Guo Jia couldn't help but shook his head when he saw that Gan Ning's response was head-on. .

But at the same time, he also knew that this was a water war, and the fire starters on the east side of the Yangtze River must contain kerosene.

The water dragon cart invented by Zhou Maitian could still be used in land battles to prevent arson and burning camps.

And on the river "Commentary, don't sigh.

Before we sent troops, I already knew that the two armies would be like this."

Gan Ning still smiled, like the flash of a beautiful tiger's nose when it pounces on its prey, showing endless danger and elusiveness: "Commentary, He is planning the world, so let me wait for the boss to deal with these tactics with bloody courage."

Before he finished speaking, Gan Ning suddenly heard a guard behind him shouting: "Captain, no, the south wind is blowing."

"Lord, the south wind has risen."

This cry was heard at the same time on Sun Ce's warship in Jiangdong.

However, compared to the anger and fear on Gan Ning's warship, these shouts were obviously more joyful and exciting.

"It's great that God is helping me Jiangdong tonight."

Sun Ce was overjoyed.

Then he looked at the approaching Ma family warship, his eyes burning with blazing ambition: Come closer, get closer, as long as it reaches the range of the big crossbow, as long as this Rockets can make great achievements, and Jiangdong Sun Jian's long-cherished wish to annex Jingzhou can be realized tonight However, before the flames in Sun Ce's eyes were completely ignited, a strange sound of wind came from above.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu looked up at the same time and saw a strange scene: three or four huge rocks of different shapes flying in the air.

Drawing several dangerous and graceful arcs, it hit a warship next to it.

The two of them shrank their necks involuntarily, and the archers on the warship subconsciously wanted to hide, but they were not as lucky as Sun Ce and Zhou Yu.

Those huge rocks hit their bodies very accurately, and under the powerful impact , directly smashing their bodies into a puddle of mud, with broken muscles and bones.

Fortunately, their deaths may not be painful.

The real pain was for the three archers who were hit by the boulders.

Some of their legs were directly broken by the boulders, and half of their bodies were crushed among the sawdust on the deck.

The blood surged away and took away the vitality of their bodies. , the powerful pain made him worse than death; and One was even more pitiful.

His legs were pinned down by a boulder, but the rocket in his hand pierced and ignited his abdominal cavity.

An unpleasant and pungent smell of smoke filled the air instantly, and the death screams of these injured archers were heard. , almost breaking the ears of the frightened archers nearby.

"Damn it!"

Sun Ce punched the side of the ship hard.

He already understood Gan Ning's intention: the trebuchet may not be very powerful against warships, but the roaring boulders that came in preemptively could bring great consequences to the Jiangdong navy.

Unspeakable fear.

Once morale drops, no matter how God helps, the battle is destined to end in failure.

"Why did I not see Gan Ning's tactics like this after fighting for more than a month?"

Sun Ce was furious.

Faced with Gan Ning's psychological tactics, he was really helpless.

"This law must have been created by Ma Chao.

It is more likely that Ma Chao just came up with it in the past few days."

Zhou Yu sighed.

He understood that Gan Ning was a brave and resourceful man, but Guo Jia was wise and resourceful.

Strategists, it is unlikely that either of them would have thought of combining trebuchets with warships.

Only Ma Chao, whose thinking is as unconstrained as a horse's imagination, can be so original.

But when the two of them wanted to talk again, the Ma family warship on the opposite side showed its power again.

This time it seemed that it was not just a trial throw, but a violent storm that hit the sky.

The boulders flew up instantly, as if the sky was angry and a meteor shower fell.

Countless boulders roared in and hit the masts, decks, and sides of Jiangdong Navy warships.

With continuous loud noises, many Jiangdong warships were smashed through the bottom of the ship, and the warm river water suddenly gurgling in.

There were also many soldiers on the warship who ran away in panic.

They accidentally knocked over the kerosene in the oil tank on the warship, which was ignited by rockets.

The entire warship immediately burst into flames.

The morale of the Jiangdong navy was severely damaged.

Many people were running.

Every navy was stunned by the sudden attack and frightened by the power of the boulder.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu immediately shouted: "Bo Fu, advance quickly!"

Sun Ce's eyes flashed with determination, and he said loudly: "Lu Meng."

Lu Meng, who was just a guard captain at the moment, took a step forward and said, "Yes."

"Instruct Zhou Tai to attack and attack the slinging fleet in front of the Majia formation to clear the way for the next fire attack."

"As commanded."

Lu Meng agreed loudly.

Although he was not familiar with the strategy, he had already understood the meaning of Sun Ce's order: Zhou Tai's attack was true, but it was impossible to wipe out the Ma family's slinging fleet.

Sun Ce was cutting off the strength of a strong man.

He wanted to use Zhou Tai's bravery and lack of regrets to tell all Jiangdong troops that in this battle, there would be no advance or retreat.

Lu Meng turned around and waved his arm fiercely at the messenger on the bird room.

The messenger who climbed high on the bird room quickly raised a red triangular flag and waved it twice to the left.

The sound of horns and war drums rose into the sky, and a fleet of four to five hundred stern and fighting ships separated from the Jiangdong main formation and slowly pushed towards the Ganning navy.

The fighting ship is already light in size, and with the help of sails, it can move as fast as flying.

On the first fighting ship, Zhou Tai stood proudly with a machete in hand.

Behind Zhou Tai, fifty Jiangdong Army warriors were holding flying hooks and slings and carrying steel knives on their backs.

They were like fifty water ghosts guarding the deck eerily, with their eyes filled with cold murderous intent.

However, the Ma family's warship seemed to be aware of the Jiangdong navy's intentions, and hurled a stone at Zhou Tai's battleship.

Unfortunately, the target of the fighting ship was small after all.

Zhou Tai felt a sharp sound suddenly ringing in his ears, and a water column rose into the sky from the river beside him.

The water column rose to a height of several feet before bursting and turning into Waterdrops filled the sky, and Zhou Tai and the Jiangdong soldiers on the battleship were all soaked in water.

Looking back, Zhou Tai saw Gan Ning laughing arrogantly on the boat.

At this moment, Zhou Tai was completely overwhelmed by the strong sense of humiliation.

He wiped his face randomly and shouted sternly, "Paddle as hard as I can and rush over here."

Bang bang bang, continuous collisions sounded.

With the help of the strong south wind and the newly installed cast iron ship thorns, Zhou Tai's warships faced the dense rain of bows and arrows on the Ma family's warships, and slammed into the Ma family one by one. building ship.

All the Jiangdong naval forces on many ships were shot into hedgehogs by sharp arrows, but at the last moment they were about to die, they would always use their last strength to light the oilcloth soaked in kerosene on the ships.

Under the strong south wind, the tongues of flames on the sterns were licking the Majia building ships crazily.

The Majia naval forces, who were high on the building ships, never imagined the source of the disaster.

They could no longer aim with peace of mind and still charged forward without fear of death.

Came from Jiangdong.

The boats burning with fire seemed to be just like the anger of the Jiangdong disciples who had just died unjustly, and would never die.

"Quickly dispatch the warships."

Gan Ning finally showed his anxiety at this time and shouted in a hissing voice: "Stop those daredevil ships and don't let them get close to the high-rise ships again."

"Hahaha" Zhou Taihe and the navy soldiers behind him burst into laughter at this time, but their smiles were full of ruthlessness and sadness as if they were looking forward to death.

It was during this unclear time of war that the two armies gradually came into contact with each other.

With tears in his eyes, Sun Ce looked at the suicidal sterns one after another, and roared: "The time has come, we can't let the men in front die in vain, let me set off rockets":
