However, since Ning chose to fight with Gongsun Du's naval army, Gan Ning decided to be stunned. If you want to play, just play bigger. This was also learned from his lord Liu Bin. If you don't play, just play bigger! Although the ships of the Youzhou Navy are not as big as those of the Liaodong Navy, this does not mean that the Youzhou Navy has no possibility of a battle! You should know that although the ships of the Youzhou Navy are small, the equipment on the ship is not bad! Not only are there bed crossbows, but some small catapults, and even some secret weapons invented by the lord! With these Youzhou Navy, you have the strength to fight! But now it seems that it is not the time to use the secret weapons of the lord! And although the ships are small, small also have small benefits! Small boats are conducive to dispatching, and even if they are lost, they are not so distressed! With Youzhou's strength, isn't it a piece of cake to replenish these ships after the war?

So Gan Ning sent an order to order hundreds of larger building ships to line up and face them, while his more than a hundred rushing ships were hidden behind the more than a hundred large ships and followed them forward. At this time, the navy commander of Gongsun Du opposite looked at the posture of the Gan Ning fleet and was so happy that he broke his mouth. He thought to himself: Just your small boats can also be on the table? If you ran away as soon as you showed up, then I would be merciful and too lazy to chase after you. But since you are seeking death by yourself, then

Don’t blame me for bullying the weak. I deserve it. The commander of the navy was thinking, and pulled out his waist knife, pointed the tip of the knife forward, shouting loudly: "The ships on both wings will encircle them, wipe them out. Kill them all! No one left!" With the shout of the navy commander, a string of flag words hit him. Gongsun Du’s navy fleet began to change its formation. Thirty large ships on both wings crossed the main ship and rushed over. Prepare to encircle Gan Ning’s fleet.

At this moment, suddenly, Ganning's fleet began to attack. Ganning's tower ships began to shoot arrows when they were more than half the distance away from usual. They were all rockets wrapped in oilcloths. Of course, in addition to these bows and arrows, the crossbows also began to shoot, and of course, these were also rockets! These rockets fell on Gongsun Du's fleet. Although the range of these rockets was beyond the expectations of Gongsun Du's naval commander, the naval commander was used to water battles and did not care about these. He was just afraid that these rockets would shoot on the sails, causing a fire and igniting the ship. Moreover, he calculated the distance and felt that it was almost the same. So he shouted again: "Falling sails, rowing, approaching the battle! Fight!"

Hulala, all the sails of Gongsun Du's fleet fell down. The oars explored the water surface, and the speed of these ships immediately increased a little, and rushed towards Ganning's fleet quickly. At this time, Ganning's fleet changed again. More than 200 Ganning's mid-fighting ships rushed out from behind the tower ship, and rushed towards Gongsun Du's fleet one by one.

This time, the naval commander of Gongsun Du was surprised and said to himself: "What does this mean? You are ready to fight your life at this time? Aren't you?" He was surprised: Why are these small boats rushing over? Even if you fight hard, you shouldn't send these small boats to the end. If you hit a big boat, it would still be a bad luck for the small boat. Even if you land on the big boat with a small boat, just relying on the little people on the small boat, it would be for nothing. But suddenly, he also remembered a possibility. He immediately shouted: "Be careful that they have water ghosts to get off the boat! Everyone should take care of the boat! Don't get off the boat to them!"

With Gongsun Du's naval commander shouting, a group of sailors jumped off the boats and protected the bottom of the boat. The naval commander then blew a cold sweat and felt relieved. However, he was also surprised: Why did the fleet opposite have so many water ghosts? However, he soon stopped being surprised, but was surprised. The small boats on the opposite side had no intention of stopping, and no water ghosts jumped into the water. Instead, they rowed faster and faster, and it was actually a small boat that hit a big boat.

However, what almost made him stare down was that none of the small boats were crushed to pieces. And they all hit the big boats. Of course, the sailors on the small boats were not easy to live. The huge impact force made them all fly out of the boats. There was no hope of survival. It was not until this time that Gan Ning really confirmed the success of his tactics. At the same time, he was also glad that these small boats were built so well. He listened to his lord's words, but he really heard it right.

When the lord inspected his fleet, he saw that all the ships were made of wooden, and the keels of the ship were also made of wooden. At that time, he asked himself why he didn't use steel to build a ship? And why he didn't even use iron to build a ship. At that time, he was wondering how could steel make a ship? When the steel came into the water, it sank the bottom immediately. But unexpectedly, after hearing his doubts, the lord didn't explain anything. He just asked someone to take a copper basin and put it in the water. He just saw that the copper basin floated on the water surface and floated. He couldn't say a word. At this time, the lord asked someone to carry a giant keel and a craftsman steel stick. The lengths of these two were so great.

It was almost the same, but the thickness was much worse. Moreover, the weight of the keel was much heavier than the steel rod. But in the end, the lord asked General Dian to smash the two guys with the same force. The wooden keel broke with no force at all. But the steel rod was not very changed. Then, the lord didn't say anything to him anymore and just left. But the vibration to himself was great. Finally, with his cruelty, he urged the craftsmen to transform countless times. He built these crusade ships with steel as the keel. He didn't expect that today he would play such a great role and build such a great contribution. If he could build a ship that was completely made of steel in the future, how powerful would it be?

That's right, most of the ships of the Youzhou Navy are equipped with steel! Liu Bin, who has seen so many large warships made of pure steel in later generations, naturally doesn't like the wooden ships of this era! So he asked the shipyard to build steel warships! Of course, according to Liu Bin's original intention, he directly wanted to create steam ships, but the technology of this era is obviously impossible. Not to mention steam-powered ships, even pure steel and steel-shaped warships are impossible! There is no welding technology in this era! However, it is still okay to make some keels made of steel, and inlaid some iron armor on some important parts of the wooden hull! The current ships of the Youzhou Navy can be regarded as the most basic iron armored ships!

The reason why the wagon fighting ships in Youzhou can break through the ships of the Liaodong Navy is not because these wagon fighting ships have steel keels or steel armor. The real reason is that there is a long iron collision angle on the bows of these ships! This invention was also caused by Liu Bin to wake up the craftsmen of the shipyard! Because the ships are all made of wooden and very fragile! Although Youzhou can build some primitive iron armored ships, the Youzhou Navy started too late and is not able to build large ships yet, fighting against the enemy.

At that time, facing those large warships, even if they have some advanced weapons, they are easily at a disadvantage! So Liu Bin planned to add an iron collision angle to the ship and use a small boat to hit the enemy's large warships! Although the Youzhou Navy does not have the ability to build large warships, these small boats need as much as they need! It doesn't have to worry about the loss a little! Using some small boats to use wolf pack tactics to hit the enemy's large warships, it still makes no gains! Now Gan Ning is following Liu Bin's idea and using wolf pack tactics to hit the enemy's large ships!

Gan Ning was looking forward to this. The deputy general Ding Feng next to him interrupted Gan Ning's dream. Ding Feng bowed and said to Gan Ning: "Boss, the enemy's ships that have not yet sunk are coming to us. Please give orders!" Ding Feng followed Gan Ning when Gan Ning was still a Jinfan thief, and was the most capable assistant around Gan Ning. He used to call Gan Ning the boss. Although he has defected to Liu Bin and become a general, this habit is still preserved! Gan Ning said a few times and he couldn't change it. In the end, Gan Ning let him go. Anyway, his lord Liu Bin did not pursue these things!

Gan Ning saw that it wasn't it. Those ships that had broken a big hole but had not yet sunk were struggling toward him, saying that they were going to rob their ships, so that they had hope of survival. Gan Ning thought to himself: You are all so virtuous. Do I still have to fight with you? How could it be so easy to rob my ships to survive? How could I make you happy? So Gan Ning waved his hand decisively and said, "Retreat! After they sink, we will clean the battlefield. Let's watch a good show first and see how these people turn into turtles to dive! Such good shows are not common!" Gan Ning's subordinates all applauded! Although they are all soldiers now, they are still under the influence of Gan Ning and others, and they still have a sense of robbery. They can deal with the enemy without exerting their efforts. They naturally have to retain their strength!

Gan Ning's fleet retreated slowly. Of course, the retreat on the sea is still a little different from the land. If you retreat on the land, you only need to change the back team to the front team and turn around and run. But if you retreat on the sea, you need to circle around and drop the bow of the ship. However, Gan Ning's rushing ships are all small boats, so it is very easy to turn around. And there is no need for any major moves now. Just be careful and don't let those ships lean on, that's it.
