Close to the shore.

King Xiang Wu of Chu looked out on the boat and soon saw that the leader of this army was Xiaohunhou, who was under the banner of "General Zuo, Xiaohunhou, and Danyang Army".

He couldn't help laughing.

It's really a narrow road for enemies.

The assassination in Jinling City failed to kill Xiaohunhou, but he met him by the river.

To be honest, he actually didn't want Xiaohunhou to die like this.

Xiaohunhou once defeated the Grand Marshal Li Rong on the military military university field, and once wrote the strange book of military strategy "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is a rare military master in the Great Chu Dynasty.

Many people are rumored that Xiao Hunhou's military strategy has surpassed that of the Grand Marshal Li Rong, and is the best of the military strategy today.

King Xiang Wu of Chu had a plan to try his edge.

After defeating Xiaohunhou, King Xiang Wu of Chu was the first master of military strategy today.

"Little Hunhou!"

Xiang Wu shouted: "I have a 100,000 army that can cross the south. I can block the river with a whip. Are you willing to surrender me? I am not as stingy as the emperor. As long as you are willing to surrender, you can immediately give you the title of the Third Duke and the Herald King. You can choose one of the titles of the King, how about you?"

Chu Tianxiu smiled in the Danyang army on the shore, "King of Chu, this marquis is here, and a boat cannot be docked. Please go back to Chu State and submit a letter of surrender to the court and disperse the army. The emperor may not kill you and save your life!"

Xiang Wu laughed loudly, shook his head and sighed, "I have been born and died on the battlefield since I was a child. I am a famous general of the Great Chu. This time, I have brought a hundred thousand troops across the river and defeated you only 6,000 soldiers here. It is quite a bit unfair to win. People in the world think that I bully the weak with the strong.

Forget it, I won’t kill you, the whole army will dock! Capture Xiao Hunhou alive!”

Dozens of tower ships slowly headed towards the bank of the river a hundred feet away and leaned over.

The shore is shallow and the boat cannot completely lean on the side. The soldiers can only jump off the boat, use a small sampan, and wade to the shore.

Thousands of passenger ships, cargo ships and fishing boats followed the building ships, and a huge army came to the bank of the river.

...

shore.

Six thousand Danyang soldiers were divided into three rows in front, middle and back, one row of two thousand people, forming a long snake formation one hundred steps away from the shore.

In addition, a hundred small cannons have already been lined up.

The range of the small steel cannon is one hundred feet, about three hundred meters, which can ensure a certain accuracy. If it is further away, there will be little accuracy.

A large number of horses and wires were placed in front of them. These horses can prevent the opponent from charging and dispersing their Danyang soldiers' camp.

Chu Tianxiu was in the Danyang army, watching the Chu army slowly docked.

He brought not many troops.

If there were too many soldiers he brought, the King of Chu would definitely not dare to dock easily.

Maybe, I went up and downstream to cross the river hundreds of miles away. I scared the enemy away, ran away, and got trouble chasing him.

Danyang soldiers are elite soldiers with great potential, but elite soldiers are also trained and fought.

The more battles you fight, the more good the elite soldiers can fight.

Take this opportunity to let the Danyang soldiers fight more and train a real elite soldier of hundreds of battles.

In addition, Li Yu brought another 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 elite infantry, and was ambushed in the woods not far behind the river, and could support him at any time.

There is also sufficient security guarantee, so there is no need to worry about being directly made by the Chu army's superior forces of 100,000 troops.

When Chu Tianxiu saw that many of the ships opposite had already entered the range of the small cannons, he shouted: "Fire the cannon--!"

"Boom~!"

"Boom~!"

Hundreds of small steel cannons fired at the same time, and projectiles filled the sky flew towards the tower ships on the bank of the river, and various ships.

"Click!"

"Bang~!"

The boats in the tower were hit by projectiles and a huge hole exploded.

The wood chips were everywhere, and the soldiers around him were injured.

Some building ships were even bombarded by four or five iron balls at the same time, and they were beaten terrible.

In a blink of an eye, dozens of huge tower ships were all shot. Although they were not sunk, many soldiers were injured.

After being hit by the small passenger ships and fishing boats, they were directly penetrated into the deck at the bottom of the ship. The river water rushed in frantically and soon sank.

King Xiang Wu of Chu was stunned for a moment.

What are the things that burst out loud on the shore?

It's not a gunpowder gun, it looks much more powerful than a gunpowder gun.

The range was as high as one hundred feet, much farther than the bow and arrow. Thousands and tens of thousands of archers on the tower ship could not attack the Danyang army on the shore.

The entire Chu army was stunned and didn't know what was going on for a moment.

The King of Chu quickly reacted and roared desperately: "Hurry! Rush! Rush, kill! There are only a few thousand of them, and rushed over in one go."

The soldiers of the Chu army jumped off the stairs, and the ships waved their knives and spears, desperately rushed to the shore a hundred steps away, trying to attack the Danyang Army.

After all, they were an army of 100,000 people and did not take the only six thousand Danyang soldiers in front of them seriously.

"Bang~bang~!"

But I saw a dense sound of gunpowder sounding on the shore, and two thousand small projectiles shot towards the Chu army charging towards the shore.

Nearly a thousand Chu soldiers were densely packed with bombs and fell on the bank of the river.

The Chu army behind had no idea what was going on and continued to rush towards the shore.

"Open fire!"

Chu Tianxiu shouted again.

Immediately, there were another wave of dense gunpowder sounds.

The smoke of gunpowder passed, and a piece of Chu army was still in the river. Before it had yet to rush to the shore, it fell down again.

After three consecutive rounds of fire, the Chu army had already killed three thousand people on the shore.

Three-wave shooting can maximize the morale of the opponent and give your troops time to fill ammunition.

The Chu army was completely stunned by the oncoming fierce firepower.

Before they rushed ashore, they had not even had time to cause any damage to the Danyang army opposite, and three thousand people had already died.

Although the Chu army had as many as 100,000 people, they didn't want to die!

The Chu army that had not yet got off the ship did not dare to get off the ship again. The soldiers who had jumped off the ship turned their heads and fled back to the ship.

The bright red blood dyed the entire river bank red.

King Xiang Wu of Chu stood on the tall building boat, looking at the battle situation on the bank of the river, dumbfounded and could not say a word.

Their warships were too far from the shore, and the bows and arrows could not hit the Danyang Army at all, but the Dangyang Army's small steel cannons could hit their floors.

The soldiers went down the river to charge, but before they reached the shore, they were suppressed by the fierce firepower of the Danyang army. They fell down one by one, and those who rushed to the front could not even escape.

"this...!"

"This time, Xiaohunhou defeated the gunpowder gun of the Grand Marshal Li Rong on the field of the Military University College. How could the gunpowder gun be so powerful??"

"And the one who squirted the fire and shot out the big iron ball...what is that?"

The group of generals around were all confused and at a loss.

"Boom~!"

Hundreds of small cannons opened fire again.

Swish~ Swish!

The dense projectiles hit dozens of building ships, shattering the decks, and leaking the cabins, which were terrible.

A building boat entered the water and began to squint and sank into the river.

The Chu soldiers on the tower ship jumped into the ship and fled, swam to other ships, and escaped.

"King of Chu, I am here, and I cannot cross the river with a boat. You should go back to Chu and think about how to write a decent book of surrender."

Chu Tianxiu smiled.

The seven orifices of King Xiang Wu of Chu were smoked. How could his 100,000 army be blocked by Xiaohunhou with only 6,000 troops and horses and could not get ashore?

Wouldn't the people in the world call him a waste and make Xiaohunhou famous for his lifetime!

"I will cross this river today!

The people came, divided into 50,000 troops and crossed the river from ten miles downstream.
Chapter completed!
