The main general of the Jianghuai army is named Wu Pei, his grandfather did Zuotun Tianwei in Nanchen, responsible for training sailors in Jiangxia, after Humen, he also learned some ancestral training methods, in the Sui Dynasty can not be reused, but only a deputy of a county lieutenant, after Du Fuwei raised troops, he called himself the head of Jianghuai and became the king of the domain, this Wu Pei was reused because he was able to train sailors.

"General Wu, I found the Hua ** team, which is assembling at the mouth of the Qingxia Gorge upstream, and it seems that they are going to forcibly cross the river!"

"Hmph, they finally can't bear it anymore, they want to make a move, cross the river, it depends on whether General Ben is willing to agree." Wu Pei defeated Xu Shiji's sailors last time, and he was quite disdainful of the sailors in the north, and this time he learned that the Dahua Emperor was personally driving, and he couldn't wait to meet the head-on attack.

"That Luo Zhaoyun is very famous in the north, but in the south, it is a water war, and their horse foot soldiers are not good, and it is rumored that he has never been defeated, so this time, General Ben will break his myth!" Wu Pei is quite confident and has experience in training sailors, so he is not afraid of sailors in the north.

Some of the generals around him also laughed after hearing this, and they didn't feel that General Wu was arrogant, because in the water battle on the Huai River, Luo Zhaoyun was useless even if he drove the expedition in person, he was not familiar with the sailors, and the northern army has always been weak in the training of ships and sailors.

Therefore, they are all fantasizing that this time they will become famous and break the myth!

"General, please give the order to attack on all fronts and attack the Huaguo Naval Division!"

"That's it, give them some color, and beat the Reservoir Dogs!"

One of the strategists said cautiously: "Do you know who the main commander of the enemy naval division is this time?" ”

Adjutant General Zhang Huai'an said: "It is said that Zhou Faming brought 5,000 sailors, hundreds of large and small ships, in fact, the big ships are only 200, according to the scout's report, many infantry after a simple drill, they also began to board the boat, to cross the river to the south bank, to support the Xu Shiji soldiers and horses of Zhongli County." ”

Wu Pei heard the name of this person, with a hint of contemptuous smile, shook his head and said: "Zhou Faming, although he is behind the general, but he has also been unfamiliar with the training of the sailor over the years, so he should not be afraid. ”

"This time, we inflicted heavy losses on their sailors and cut off the direction of Dahua's advance, and the blow to the enemy army was also very huge." Deputy General Zhang Huai'an echoed.

The other generals also nodded in agreement and took the initiative to ask Ying to fight.

Wu Pei saw that his morale was high and his spirit was high, and he smiled slightly: "Dispatch seventy percent of the main ships to crush the enemy army and eliminate the sailors led by Zhou Faming in one fell swoop!" ”

"Obey!" The generals clenched their fists, and their morale was like a rainbow.

An hour later, hundreds of Jianghuai warships appeared on the surface of the Huai River, going upstream, and the armored men on the battleships stood solemnly.

Archers and spearmen have their own arrays, and once they get close to the enemy ship, they shoot with their bows and arrows, and their spears stab the enemy soldiers who climb the ship at close range.

Due to the momentum of the Dahua army to board the boat and cross the river at dusk, when the Jianghuai army got the news and responded quickly, the battleship left the river beach port and set out, and most of the hour had passed, and when the ship was mighty against the current and approached the Dahua naval division, it was almost an hour.

The sky has already darkened, and hundreds of Dahua ships of all sizes are taking advantage of the wind and water to go down the river.

Under the moonlight, the warship was full of armor soldiers, but if you look closely, many of the soldiers standing there are actually scarecrows, and they are just wearing armor outside.

"Knock knock!"

The drums of war thundered, resounding on the surface of the river, spreading agitation, and surround the mountains in the sky.

Wu Pei commanded the naval division, seventy percent of the main force was used, and the battleships were all over the Huai River, mighty and mighty, to meet the Dahua naval division.

"Haha, I don't know what confidence the Chinese army has, dare to confront my Jianghuai Navy Division head-on like this, do they think that fighting on a ship is the same as flat?"

"That is, this time, the Northern Sailor is doomed to defeat."

When the most advanced battleship was within a stone's throw and a half, the archers on the Dahua battleship, using long-range crossbows, took the lead in attacking.

Most of the Jianghuai army's bows and arrows were soft bows, and the range was only half that of the opponent, so they used shields and other means to defend.

When the two warships were only within the range of one arrow, the Jianghuai Navy began to release arrows, at this time, on the Dahua battleship, the archers had secretly dived into the water and withdrew on bamboo rafts, leaving only some dead soldiers, ready to start igniting and burning through.

In fact, at this time, there was no need to deliberately burn through by yourself, because the Jianghuai sailors were still experienced in water warfare, so they directly used fire oil arrows, and tied fire oil cloth to the arrows, in order to cause trouble to the enemy's warships, but who would have thought that the Dahua ships slowed down firewood, grease and other combustibles, etc., and at one point, the fire burned brightly and quickly swallowed the big ship.

In this way, dozens or hundreds of warships caught fire and, with the help of the wind and current, rushed into the battleship formation of the Jianghuai Army.

"Is the Hua ** team crazy, how can there be such a water war?"

"How is this different from suicide?"

Many of the commanding lieutenants of the battleships in front were shocked.

"It's not good, turn the rudder quickly, retreat!" Wu Pei suddenly realized something, his face changed greatly, and he ordered a retreat.

Hundreds of warships, following the general's orders, turned around one after another, and suddenly the formation was in chaos.

The burning warship in front of it has even rammed into it.

"Boom!"

"Ahh

The ship in the rear was making a U-turn, but found that chains were hanging in the water, blocking the river, one end on the north bank, the other end on the south bank, coiled on a boulder, and then a war horse pulled, blocking the impulse of the hull.

Arrows were fired on both sides of the strait at the same time, and the archers who were ambushed in the mountains and forests on the shore fired arrows on both sides of the ships of the Jianghuai Army, becoming turtles in the urn.

Even if the Jianghuai Naval Division is good at water warfare, but this scene has never been encountered, there are hundreds of warships in front of them and rushing down, both sides of the river are ambushes and arrows, and there are chains in the river, blocking the river road, so that the burning warships continue to come in series.

In the night, the arrows and meteors, and the sound of killing on the river shook the sky, which was particularly tragic.
