Wu Jun, once again, will attack with fire The pottery merchant finally confirmed that his premonition was correct, he just saw that Wu Jun was anchored in the river and did not retreat, and he felt that Sun Ce was brewing some means, and when he heard Zhang Liang say this, he immediately saw that Sun Ce wanted to take advantage of the sudden north wind to break through his water camp with a fireboat.
In the original battle of Chibi, Sun Ce planned to burn his Wulin camp with a fireboat, but he didn't want to be discovered by the potters, but he didn't expect that after such a long time, Sun Ce would repeat his old tricks again.
"Sun Ce, Sun Ce, you are really fucking persistent, do you want to attack with fire like this" The potter frowned and scolded in his mouth.
"King, once Sun Ce launches the fireship, we can't stop the enemy ship from approaching with only the bow and crossbow, it seems that only the sailors who sent Gan Xingba to risk attacking and stop the fireboat."
Zhang Liang, who was beside him, reminded in a deep voice.
There was no need for him to remind him, the potter had already had this thought, and immediately shouted: "Where is Gan Ning?"
Gan Ning slapped his horse forward and arched his hand: "The last general, Gan Ning, is here." ” "See, Sun Ce's kid plans to set fire to the boat and burn my water camp."
The potter's sword pointed at the enemy, "This king ordered you to lead all the sailors to dispatch, and you must stop the enemy's fireship for this king no matter what, do you understand?"
Gan Ning arched his hand and said resolutely: "The last general knows, if the last general lets a fireboat crash into the water camp, he is willing to come and see him." ” After that, Gan Ning didn't hesitate any longer, turned over his horse, and went straight to the shore.
Rushing to the side of the flagship, Gan Ning jumped onto the warship and shouted: "Sailor son, follow Lao Tzu out of the water camp and block the enemy's fireboat." ” When the order was issued, the only 1,000 sailors in the water camp jumped onto the warships, and more than 50 ships flew out of the water camp and greeted the enemy fleet.
On the river, the huge fleet of the Wu army soon broke into the range of the Wei army's arrow attack again.
Without hesitation, the potter once again ordered the arrows to be fired, and this time, not only the Kamui ballista, but also half of the broken army crossbow battalions transferred from the Iron Lock Array, under the command of Yoyuki, fired wildly at the enemy with heavy crossbows.
The density of the Wei army's arrow rain increased sharply, and the overwhelming sharp arrows fell madly towards the enemy fleet.
Wu Jun was also fearless, under the urging of Sun Ce, under the rain of arrows in the sky, desperately approaching the Wei army's water camp, and no ship dared to take half a step back.
On the flagship, Sun Ce stood proudly on the bow of the ship with his spear, and the generals such as Chen Wu led more than ten personal soldiers, with a strong iron shield, to protect Sun Ce and block all the enemy arrows that came from him.
The thick iron shield, several sides together to block Sun Ce, even the Shenwei ballista could not penetrate it, so as to ensure that Sun Ce did not have to squat down in embarrassment to avoid the arrows, and maintained his calm image.
In the rain of arrows, Sun Ce saw that the fleet had reached a similar distance, and immediately waved the silver spear in his hand and shouted: "The time has come, set fire to the king and burn the enemy camp."
The order immediately reached the front of the fleet.
In front, the soldiers on the fireboat immediately used torches to ignite all the flammable things in the ship, and the raging fire quickly burned.
In the blink of an eye, nearly forty fireships were burned to the ground.
Then, the soldiers on the fireship fixed the sails and rudder to ensure the direction of the fireship, and then jumped on the large ship behind them and cut off all the connected rope locks.
Having lost their restraints, more than forty fireboats, carrying raging fires, followed the wind and roared towards the Wei camp on the south bank.
On the riverbank, the potter finally saw the fire on the river, and the eagle's eyes shot a solemn light.
Behind him, the soldiers of Great Wei were all nervous, and they couldn't help but feel uneasy.
These elite soldiers are all iron-blooded soldiers, but in the face of the natural force of fire, even the strongest soldiers cannot help but be afraid in their hearts.
In the blink of an eye, the entire Wei army's water camp was quickly shrouded in a tense and dignified atmosphere, and everyone sweated.
The potter's eyes were as quiet as a mountain, but he was always full of confidence, and he was convinced that Gan Ning would never let him down.
In the field of vision ahead, the unbridled fireship was speeding like the wind, and in a blink of an eye, it was less than a hundred steps away from Wei Ying, and dozens of ships led by Gan Ning finally came up.
As soon as the ship approached the fireboat, Gan Ning shouted: "Go up, block the fireboat, and don't let one go." ” The flag waved, dozens of ships galloped out, sailors rowed desperately, and one ship after another carried more than a thousand fearless warriors to face the blazing fireship.
Behind the fireships, Sun Ce, in order to prevent his fleet from being affected by the fire, had already ordered the whole army to slow down in order to widen the distance between the fireships and the fireships.
Sun Ce was also very familiar with the tactics of fireboats, and he knew very well that he had to wait until the fireships crashed into the enemy village and burned the enemy camps along the coast before he could lead the whole army to attack the shore.
At this moment, a sneer had already risen on the corner of Sun Ce's mouth, and his eyes flashed with pride, waiting to sit and watch the grand occasion of the fire.
In the battle of Chibi, he failed to burn the potter's camp, and today, it is finally time for him to fulfill his wish.
At this moment, he suddenly saw that dozens of Wei warships dared to rush out of the water camp and meet his downwind fireboat.
The head of the ship rushed up, still waving the banner of the word "Gan".
"It's the sail thief again" Sun Ce's brows suddenly froze, his eyes erupted with fire, knowing that the potter had no choice but to send Gan Ning to forcibly attack, intending to wear the fireboat.
"There are more than a thousand sailors, do you want to block the king's fireboat, Jinfan thief, I think you are killing yourself" Sun Ce raised a hideous sneer on his face, waved his gun and shouted: "All ships, aim at the ship of the Jinfan thief for this king, and shoot them into hedgehogs" The order was handed down, and within the range of the arrows, nearly 400 Wu ships, more than 5,000 crossbowmen, quickly mobilized the direction of shooting, and turned the target of the shooting from the Wei camp to the Gan Ning department that rushed up.
Whoosh In the sound of breaking wind, thousands of sharp arrows, whistling like raindrops, fell towards Gan Ning's rushing team, and the density of the arrow rain had reached the level of covering the sky and the sun.
Such a dense arrow shot, if it is an ordinary amidship, it will be pierced into a hedgehog in an instant, but Gan Ning's dozens of ships are exactly those specially thickened warships used when Xu Sheng defeated Cai Mao's navy, and the outer part of the hull has added as many as two layers of cowhide on the original basis, and the whole three layers of cowhide defense are enough to block the sharpest arrow attacks in the world.
Under this kind of armor, although the Wu army's arrows rained on, and the arrows were nailed all over the outer wall of the battleship, they failed to penetrate the armor and injured the Wei soldiers inside the ship.
The Wei army's fire-resisting team, with super strong armor, Gan Ning and his soldiers faced the rain of arrows, and finally, with difficulty, approached the fireship.
Gan Ning didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, and shouted with a knife: "All ships, stick out the fire-repellent rod and stop the fireboat." ” When the order was laid, dozens of ships immediately slowed down, and a soldier standing on the bow of the ship immediately stood under the rain of arrows, stretched out a bamboo pole several feet long from the cabin, and struggled to support the oncoming fireship.
This is a special pole with an iron tip at the top, which can easily stick to the fireboat without worrying about the fire and the bamboo shaft.
At the same time, the archers shot down the sails of the enemy ships, the sailors skillfully controlled the ship, and the polemen reversed the course of the fireship through the joint action, allowing the fireship to follow the trend of the river and gallop against the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
A moment later, forty flaming fireships were finally redirected and drifted downstream.

The soldiers of the Wei army watching the battle on the shore could finally loosen their tense nerves, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It is worthy of Gan Xingba, well done" The potter was also overjoyed and praised excitedly.
Finally, the alarm of the enemy's fire attack was lifted, and the Wei army rejoiced, but on the river, Sun Ce and his Wu soldiers were all stunned.
Just a few minutes ago, Sun Ce was standing on the huge flagship with his head held high, looking at the direction of Shangwei Ying from a distance with a victorious expression.
"Pottery thief, as soon as this fireboat crashes into your camp, you see what else you can do, I, Sun Ce, have the protection of God, and I am the master of the destiny of the true heavens."
Sun Ce's expression became more and more confident, and he even began to make up the picture of Wei Ying being burned into a sea of fire by his fireboat, and the potter fleeing in embarrassment.
It's a pity that he didn't expect that Gan Ning could withstand his rain of arrows with only a thousand sailors, and miraculously blocked his fireboat.
"How can this be, that Jinfan thief turned out" A few seconds later, Sun Ce had become shocked and angry, and he was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
He never expected that although the pottery merchant navy army was small, the armor was super strong, and under the dense rain of arrows of his own army, he would be able to hold on, and finally resist the fireship.
Just as Sun Ce was furious, suddenly, the sentry from above exclaimed, "Oh no, the fireboat is rushing towards us."
Sun Ce's originally shocked expression instantly swept into horror, and he didn't expect that those fireships that had been changed direction not only failed to crash into the Wei camp, but instead crashed towards his own fleet.
You must know that the 50,000 naval troops led by Sun Ce came from the downstream direction and approached the Wei camp from the northeast, which means that his fleet was in the northerly position of the downstream of the Wei camp.
Therefore, as soon as the ship changed direction and went down the river, it swooped down diagonally towards its own fleet.
In Sun Ce's mind, the terrifying picture of the Battle of Chibi, attacking the fireships of the Wei camp, counterattacking his own army, and burning half of his fleet immediately appeared.
As if God was deliberately teasing him, the same history was repeated again The remaining confidence on Sun Ce's face disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by fear, and he shouted hoarsely: "Quickly pass the order, send a fire-resisting clipper, block the fireboat for this king, stop" isjgy:
