On the water surface of Jingkou, the vast Yangtze River is like an ocean, and the river bank is like a coast; the land horizon to the west is a huge river center continent.
A large number of ships floated on the water like leaves.
The snowflakes drizzled in the air, like a sad rain; layers of white waves swept towards the giant ship, slapped on the side of the ship, and rustled loudly.
But there was black smoke in the air, rolling like no direction in the wind.
A river on the north bank is relatively narrow, which is the entrance of the canal connecting the Yangtze River from the north.
The smoke was rolling in the mouth of the river, and the flames were raging on a large ship. The fire had lost control. The sails on the mast were burned out, and the rags with fireworks continued to fall down. Several main masts stood barely in the air.
There were screams on the water surface, and many people were shaking their heads.
Behind the fireboat, a long string of sails of warships squeezed into the river, almost covering the entire river, and there was no way to see where the tail had stretched.
At this moment, more than a dozen small boats wandered out of the giant ships, and the sails rushed towards the inlet of the river with the northeast wind.
The warships of the Southern Tang Army blocked the estuary were prepared. The crossbows and catapults on the large ship were launched, and many light boats went to intercept them. The rockets shot from the crossbow flew around like locusts in the air.
There was a thumping sound on the water surface, and many fireballs fell into the river.
The surface of a can filled with hot tinder (oil) was burning and rolling, and it just hit the mast of a small sailboat. It broke suddenly, and the boiling tinder oil splashed everywhere. The sail immediately caught fire. The flames fell from mid-air like a rain of fire. The ship quickly burned, and the panicked sailor jumped into the cold river with the wooden board.
Most of the Zhou army's more than a dozen small sailboats were burned before they could get close.
But there were still several ships who rushed to the front of the warship... The main warships were all hardwood hulls and very tall. Even if the small boat hit it, it would not only not cause damage to it, but it would not even be so easy to burn the ship.
The burning fire ship will cause damage to it, but the soldiers of the Southern Tang army have enough time to put out the fire.
Unexpectedly, an inconspicuous sailboat approached and hit the warship directly, but the small sailboat did not catch fire.
Some people who found the ship were puzzled.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang!
The dazzling fire lighted up like lightning, far exceeding the ordinary flame light. The thick white smoke rose up and spread quickly to the surroundings.
Under the explosion, the wooden boards on the side of the warship flew up like mid-air, with a big hole breaking on the side, and the hull seemed to be cracked.
White waves and broken debris fell around the river, and the giant ship quickly began to tilt to the right.
Everyone was shocked from far and wide. Amid the noise and shouting, someone vaguely shouted: It's gunpowder!The gunpowder that blows up the city wall!
The water surface was in chaos, and many small sailboats were seen floating towards the Yangtze River on the canal... Now, the soldiers of the Southern Tang army seemed to have seen the god of plague, and the big ship immediately turned around and retreated to the south to avoid such a catastrophe.
Only some small boats were still fighting in front, mainly relying on bows and crossbows to shoot each other.All the arrows were tied with oil cloth, which was very conspicuous in the air.
At this time, the warship in front of the Zhou army finally slowly sailed south from the gap. The speed seemed slow, but no one could stop it.
The small boat was feinted at the big boat, and even when it approached, it could not shoot people. The big boat was very likely to hit and attack again, just like slaughtering people under the city walls.
Several Zhou army sailboats finally entered the open water of the Yangtze River, but the follow-up was still very difficult. The canal was narrow and blocked the waterway by the burning broken ship. It was very difficult for the warships behind to come out.
The navy commander Han Tong had already boarded the ship and then passed through the river entrance.
The fired ship not far away had not sunk yet, and the fire was fierce and no one went to put it out, just like a ball of fire floating on the water.
Han Tong was standing on the boat building and passing through this water, feeling the heat, his face ached faintly, and he felt a little unbearable, but he still stood on it.
Looking ahead, several warships rushed out first on the river were besieged by Southern Tang army ships.
The southern Tang army ships were floating in a mess on the river. Because the ships that had retreated in the early stage were rowing randomly, the front line was no longer in formation... It was snowing and the river was foggy and the vision was unclear. It was difficult to effectively control the fleet with the simple organization of flags and drums, and the speed of sending people to send orders was also very slow.
Han Tong drew his sword and shouted: Pass the order and rushed to reinforce the soldiers in front!
The flagship was quickly stared at by the Southern Tang army, and soon a large ship was approaching.
As the two ships approached, the rockets shot out poured out like rain, and the warships turned into fireworks like fireworks.
On the side, the Southern Tang army threw out iron chains and hooks, and the two ships got closer.
Waiting for the wooden bridge to be put on, suddenly a shout was heard, and the Zhou army soldiers rushed up from the deck. Everyone was carrying shields and weapons, and the arrows were jingling on the armor. The people in front raised their guns, threw them on the deck, and then pulled out their swords and rushed up.
Plop... Some people kept falling from the side of the boat into the water.
Those who fall into the water will almost die, and no one can swim in the cold river water in armor; even if they fall into the water in iron armor, they will be drowned, and those with armor will be worn on armor, otherwise they will be shot to death first.
The water surface at the mouth of the river was killed in groups, and more Zhou army warships sailed out of the river, with the waters being congested and crowded.
...The warships on the southern Tang army were all transferred to encircle the river. The river was messy, and many places were fighting on the sidelines, and they were hard to part with.
More and more ships on both sides were crowded at the estuary, and the scene was like a chaotic big water village, with large groups of sails huddled into one.
On a building ship, the generals of the Southern Tang Army were extremely anxious and had lost control on the battlefield.
There were actually a lot of naval forces in the Zhou army. From a distance, the cloudy sails covered the entire canal. They were just blocked in the river before and could not enter the river.
But now, countless ships are trying hard to squeeze out!
Some warships have broken through the estuary and entered the open land of the river.
If there is no additional naval force to intercept it, once a large number of Zhou army's ships enter the river surface, the eastern front of the Southern Tang army will not be able to withstand it at all.
The navy from Jingkou Shui Camp was transferred only two hours ago, Liu Cheng Ah Liu Cheng... The general of the Southern Tang Army was so sad that he stamped his feet in anger.
Someone next to him was also anxious: Mr. Liu is no longer in Jingkou, so the general will send someone to ask for help!
How can I get there now?The general waved his arm, but he was not a god, and his hand could not control the chaotic scene in front of him.
The general was so angry that he cursed: Letting Liu Cheng take over military power in Jingkou is a joke!
