Yizhou, or the island of this era that the ghost knows what the name is, went east for 1,200 miles, and a naval battle had just ended.

The two warring sides were the Yan and Sun clans, which were among the few princes in the world who owned sea ships, and the commanders of this naval battle were Tian Yu, the general of the Yan naval division, and the generals of the Sun naval army...... is not a general of the navy, it is Sun Ce, the leader of the Sun family.

The two sides fought here with ships that covered the sky and the sun, and there were hundreds of fireships loaded with fire oil alone, and the battle lasted for two hours, and the smoke billowed on the sea, and the ships were full of broken wood floating in the sea from a distance. When the battle ended, the corpses floating on the surface of the sea attracted flocks of large fish and birds to eat them, and the scene was extremely cruel.

If calculated in terms of ship losses, the loser of this naval battle was Tian Yu. When the Sun warships left this place, Tian Yu's subordinates counted the remaining warships, and there were only more than 300 left, of which the fighting ships were even more than 40% damaged.

This almost emptied the savings of the Yan Clan's naval army in various port shipyards over the years, and it was no longer able to organize a huge offensive of nearly a thousand warships. On the other hand, Sun's warships were not damaged much, and they escaped from the shore into the sea is a desperate situation, and more than 1,000 warships and civilian ships were surrounded by Tian Yu to pursue here, paying 30% of the ship's loss and 40% of the casualties of the soldiers falling into the water, successfully breaking through the encirclement, and also giving Tian Yu no less than their heavy losses.

Escape.

This was clearly a victory for Sun.

But the actual situation was not much better, Sun Ce's ship was sunk in a naval battle, yes, it was sunk - Sun Ce had never seen anyone put catapults and ballistas on a fighting ship. At the beginning of the battle, the scene was extremely tragic, with the Soochow sailors throwing their bows and crossbows on huge warships at intervals of 400 paces, then the second round of arrows 200 paces away, and then the preparation of the third round.

It is worth mentioning that when the Jiangdong people left from Wu County, they drove away all the movable things on the shore in a panic, so Sun Ce's ship was a building ship that ran rampant across the river. Because there are five layers on it, the crossbow can be projected farther, and in fact, they can already prepare to release arrows at 500 paces, but because there are not many arrows stored on the ship, in order to deliberately pursue accuracy, they only release arrows at 400 paces.

When Tian Yu's advance fleet approached two hundred paces, Sun Ce thought that their purpose was to engage in close combat, and most of the Jiangdong sailors who were avoiding the rain of arrows smiled and bent over. The side of the building ship is eight feet higher than that of the fighting ship, and if the Yan sailors want to climb onto the building ship, it will be difficult at all, and the biggest casualties will come from the spears overhead.

But the plot is different from what Sun Ce's subordinates imagined.

The Yan's fighting ships were one hundred and ten paces away, revealing the stone cannons and Wugang crossbows on the side of the ship, and the flying stones and spears came out together, smashing Sun Cejun to the point of crying and crying for his mother.

Obviously, for Sun Cejun, Tian Yu's operation is beyond the program!

The sturdy side of the ship and the sturdy plank on the waterline could not block the stone cannons that could smash the city wall out of the gap, and the sheep stones used to defend the city smashed the bow head-on, and the bronze beast face bumper plate on the bow was directly broken and fell off by three flying stones, and then the bow leaked inevitably.

Even if there is no wind and waves at sea, there is a risk of overturning because the center of gravity is too high, not to mention after water leakage. Sun Ce fell into the sea, and was then rescued by the generals in a fighting boat, but the others on the boat did not have such good luck, Sun Jian's third son Sun Yi, and the young Sun Lang fell into the water and died. The death of the military general Wenchen in the army is not counted, and the most tragic thing is that the warship carrying the daughter of the Sun family was detained by the captain Lunzhi, who made a detour and sneak attack.

The battle to snatch the family ship is not too simple, because the escort warriors on the ship are actually women and women, and the captain department led by Lun Zhi are all veterans of Wenxian County, but in a moment, more than 100 Sun family members on the ship were detained, and the ship was far away from the battle formation, and it was too late to catch up when the main force of the Sun family reacted, causing great confusion in the army.

The losses were still secondary, and the key problem was that this water battle was not expected by the Sun clan, even if it was useless to take advantage of the situation to defeat all of Tian Yu's fleet. It was not Tian Yu or Xu Huang who defeated the Sun clan, it was the rebel clans in Jiangdong who sold their previous allegies to the Yan clan and expelled them from the city, and Sun Ce fled for his life.

There is no city, no baggage, no land, and he is distressed to die a soldier, not to mention that nearly half of the fleet was destroyed by the Yan clan, and the female dependents of the clan were robbed.

It was not a close battle, but the Sun clan was intercepted on the way to migration and suffered heavy losses.

Sun Ce wanted to go to an unknown island in the west of Wu Junnan, more than 2,000 miles to the west, but in fact, he had never been to that place, and even heard about this place from Zhou Yu's mouth, and Zhou Yu had never been there. In the past, they had only heard about this place from the mouths of the merchants, and knew that there was such a large island in the sea, which was enough for them to multiply. But now Tian Yu's fleet is across the south, blocking their way forward.

I have the intention to return to Wu County, but I know that Jiangdong has been occupied by Xu Huang's troops, and they can't beat Xu Huang when they defend Yangzhou in the past, let alone now.

In Haihe Prefecture's Liegu, that is, on the edge of an unknown island, Sun Ce's fleet docked here, and after counting the soldiers, they were able to have more than 3,000 soldiers left. Now there are only more than ten available generals in the Sun family, such as Zhou Yu, Jiang Qin, Han Dang, Zu Lang, etc., and there are even fewer strategists, and there are almost no celebrities other than Zhang Zhao...... In this great rebellion of the state people, the magistrates of various counties and counties were the mainstay, and they all turned against the Sun family.

And the Sun family, only Sun Ce and Sun Quan remain.

Like a candle in the wind, it is vulnerable.

The island they occupied was only an inch, and more than 3,000 soldiers inspected the entire island from east to west and from south to north in just two hours.

But Sun didn't have a horse, so he could only measure it with his legs.

Sun Ce called this nameless island Xiedao (Chiwei Yu).

Fortunately, the Yan clan's navy did not pursue it, which gave the Sun clan a chance to rest.

On this island, Sun Ce obtained wild fruits, animal meat, fish meat, and timber, and obtained a foothold on his way. Since the island was not enough to support their more than 3,000 strong men, they urgently needed to sail to the inhabited island in order to survive. Zhou Yu suggested to Sun Ce based on the observations of Liaodong merchants in the early years: "When the Yan clan was in Goguryeo, its prince Yi Yinmo once traveled from Lelang to Hainan to Yingzhou, saying that Yingzhou has a big island, and the island is weak and can live. ”

Sun Ce lit a bonfire on the island, and the sea fish were roasted with wooden branches, and looked at the vast sea to the northeast.

Sailing in this direction, you may reach 'Yingzhou', or you may reach Lelang or even Liaodong...... Everywhere, another great battle awaits him.
