Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty: Cheng Yaojin hit him straight, and Sun Jian almost lost his life.
Cheng Yaojin said that he was following the order of Zheng Chenggong to bombard the Wu army's central flag. To be honest, the navy general did not believe Cheng Yaojin's words very much, but Cheng Yaojin is now holding Zheng Chenggong's flag in his hand.
In the army, the military orders fell like a mountain. Cheng Yaojin waved the flag. He had to listen to this order, and he had to listen to it even if he didn't listen.
The navy general thought that when the sky fell, there were tall people holding him. Now Cheng Yaojin waved the flag and forced him to fire. Even if the governor was punished, he would punish Cheng Yaojin instead of punishing him.
"Calibration gun position."
Under Cheng Yaojin's repeated urging, the navy commander had no choice but to order his artillery soldiers to start adjusting the artillery positions and aim the gun at the large flag in the Wu army's water camp.
The artillery bases on these three-rail gun ships were designed specifically by Huang Yueying, and can be adjusted both up and down and left and right. In a moment, several artillery soldiers adjusted the artillery.
Now this three-rail gun ship is about 500 feet away from the Wu army's water camp, which is only 1,500 meters away. The artillery of this era is already considered the limit range.
"Hurry, give me the torch, I, Lao Cheng, will fight this shot in person."
"This is the first time that I, Cheng, have been shooting in front of so many people, and I am so nervous." Cheng Yaojin ordered the navy troops on both sides.
"Reload ammunition." The navy commander ordered.
"General Cheng, the shells have been loaded, just ignite the lead line." After the shells have been loaded, the navy commander said to Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin held the torch in his hand and put it on the fuse with a nervous mood. Now, Cheng Yaojin was thinking about taking a shot, but he didn't care about the consequences of the shot.
"Sheep, so sheep."
Only the sound of the fuse being ignited, followed by a loud "boom" sound. The shell crossed the sky and flew towards the Wu Jun Water Village.
Cheng Yaojin was aiming at the Wu army's big flag. Cheng Yaojin thought to himself, I will interrupt your big flag and kill the majesty of your Wu army.
Coincidentally, after Sun Jian and Zhou Yu heard that there were Qin soldiers on the water, they came out of Zhuge Liang's tent and happened to walk next to the Central Army's large flag.
Zhou Yu's cold was just getting better and his body was still a little weak, so he walked slightly slower. Sun Jian walked faster and walked ahead of Zhou Yu.
"King of Wu, be careful."
"Do not to escape." Zhou Yu walked behind and happened to see something black in the sky smashing towards Sun Jian.
Sun Jian was also a person who had been through the battlefield for a long time and crawled out of the sea of blood. At Zhou Yu's colleague who was shouting, a sense of crisis arose in his heart, and subconsciously rushed out to the side.
However, can he avoid it? If this shell was solid, then Sun Jian would have avoided it. But Cheng Yaojin used a flowering bullet. Although the shell did not hit Sun Jian, it happened to land not far beside Sun Jian.
There was only a loud "boom". As soon as the shell landed, it exploded immediately, and the air waves directly lifted Sun Jian out.
The flowering bullet is loaded with more than a dozen kilograms of gunpowder. In addition to the gunpowder, all the remaining ones are small lead bullets the size of eyeballs, and there are also broken iron pieces like blades. The killing range of this flowering bullet is about five feet, and Sun Jian happened to be in the center of the explosion.
This sudden change scared the people around him. There were no artillery during the Three Kingdoms period, and Zhou Yu and the others had not figured out what this was.
Under this shot, it was not only Sun Jian who was injured, but Zhou Yu was also overturned by the air waves. However, compared to Sun Jian who was at the center of the explosion, Zhou Yu was slightly farther from the center of the explosion, so the injuries were naturally much lighter.
"King of Wu, King of Wu."
"Grandmaster, Governor."
A moment after the explosion occurred, Lu Xun, Zhou Tai and others immediately shouted and rushed over from around.
"Puff!"
"Don't worry about me, go and save the King of Wu." Zhou Yu got up from the ground, spurted out a mouthful of blood, and shouted at the people around him.
At this time, Sun Jian was lying in a pool of blood, his whole body was stained with blood. The armor on Sun Jian's body had been blown into pieces, exposed on his body, and was embedded in it by a lot of iron and lead bullets.
"doctor!"
"Hurry up, come here for the doctor." Lu Xun shouted.
Sun Jian was very lucky. He was at the center of the explosion and did not kill him. At this time, he still had a faint aura.
This time when Sun Jian came to the front line, he was wearing a piece of armor, which was also the armor that blocked a large number of explosion fragments for him. Otherwise, he would have died on the spot today.
Even so, it is unknown whether Sun Jian died or lived. During the period when medical treatment in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms was extremely low, such injuries were actually almost no different from death.
Dongwu Water Village, five hundred feet away.
"I hit it, I hit it." On the deck of the three-rail gunship, Cheng Yaojin looked at the Wu army's central army's flag that fell in response to the sound, and waved his fists excitedly.
Cheng Yaojin didn't know that his shot was not only a slash of the Wu army's big flag, but also abruptly hitting the ball, almost killing Sun Jian's life.
The two armies are confronting each other and have not officially started a war. Cheng Yaojin almost killed Sun Jian with this shot. It is said that Cheng Yaojin made great contributions. However, no one knows that Sun Jian was seriously injured and dying, so Cheng Yaojin has been ineffective now.
Suddenly, a cannon sounded like a bolt from the blue.
Zheng Chenggong and Qi Jiguang were studying tactics, and the cannon sounded, trembling in their spirits.
After a while, Zheng Chenggong returned to his calmness and ordered the guards outside the door: "Go to the army to check, which one fired the fire without orders?"
When the guard saw Zheng Chenggong's serious expression, he thought to himself, this is the one who doesn't know how to live or die. Since he disobeyed the order of the Grand Commander, the Grand Commander repeatedly ordered that he would not fire until the decisive battle. Who dared to commit crimes against the wind?
The guards received Zheng Chenggong's order and did not dare to delay for a moment. They quickly went to the camp to check. After checking, the number of shells on each ship was correct, and there was no smell of gunpowder on the ship. Obviously, the gun just now was not driven by the ships in the camp.
After the guards figured out the situation, they quickly came back to report to Zheng Chenggong: "Report to the Grand Governor, no ships in the camp fired their guns."
As soon as he heard the words, Zheng Chenggong's face darkened, and he immediately thought of Cheng Yaojin.
"General Cheng patrols, what ship was transferred?" Zheng Chenggong asked hurriedly.
"Report to the Grand Governor, it is a three-rail gun ship." The guard replied.
As soon as he heard the words, Zheng Chenggong was furious and shouted: "Lawless, this Cheng Yaojin is lawless."
"Send someone to send Cheng Yaojin back."
