Chapter 936: Land-Based Artillery
The war on the river began, and the east also discovered it! What he expected was that the Wu navy actually had the advantage.
What's wrong?
After looking at Zhao Yun who was about to attack again, Dongfang Qiang said: "Zilong, stop the attack for the time being. The soldiers of the Qilin Legion blocked the enemy of the fortress. The Suzaku Legion wanted to support the lord!"
After hearing Dongfang Qiang say this, Zhao Yun discovered that the Wu navy actually rushed up to fight with the Jiaolong fleet.
For some reason, several warships of the Jiaolong Fleet were obliquely on the river to block the attack of the warships behind.
The warships on both sides shuttled between the warships and towers, fighting wildly!
Seeing this situation, Zhao Yun already knew what Dongfang Qiang was preparing to do.
Sure enough, when he ordered the attack to stop, Dongfang Qiang also ordered.
All Puyuan cannons of the Suzaku Legion were moved to the riverside, and the muzzles were facing the naval armies of both sides in the battle.
The best gunner was found by Dongfang Qiang, and he was responsible for adjusting the height and angle of the muzzle.
You can't hit your own people after a while!
Although the two armies were fighting, you had me and I had you, on the river, except for those who were engaging in strings, the other warships on both sides were arranged neatly behind.
What Dongfang Qiang wants to explode is Zhou Yu’s warship behind!
The battle on the river surface was still undecided for a while. The Jiaolong fleet was strong overall, but after being designed like this, it was not easy to fight, but even so, Zhou Yu could not take advantage of it.
After the gunner adjusted the angle, Dongfangqiang was not polite. With a command, hundreds of guns were fired together! The first time the artillery bombardment was not accurate, and the shell fell off.
The attack on the shore was ridiculed by the Wu navy because of its poor accuracy!
However, after Wu Shun saw Dongfangqiang's actions on the shore, he felt that Dongfangqiang would not do anything meaningless. Since he chose to shell the shore, it must be reasonable.
During the second shelling, the Wu Navy could no longer laugh because it ran very close to them. As long as they were done again, they could hit them.
Sure enough, the third shells of the Vermilion Bird Legion landed accurately into the Wu Kingdom warship group, and the waves stirred up to stagger the warship.
Some warships with bad luck were directly hit by shells, and their arms were broken and their limbs flew away!
There were not only people from the Wuling Army on the shore, but there were also people in the Wu Kingdom, but they hid in the fortress.
Seeing that the Wuling Army stopped attacking them, before they could be excited, they discovered something that surprised them.
The artillery of the Suzaku Legion actually went to bombard the warship! This was originally a pleasure, but when they found out that Zhou Yu was also the target of attack, they couldn't sit still!
Especially after the third shelling of the Suzaku Legion, General Wu in the fortress could no longer hold on. He actually ordered the soldiers to come out and want to attack the cannon of the Suzaku Legion.
Naturally, the movements of the enemy in the fortress could not be hidden from Dongfang Qiang's eyes. He couldn't even look at them because Zhao Yun was there, and he knew very well that those people from Wu would not even think about coming.
Zhao Yun found that the enemy in the fortress rushed out like a madman, so he ordered the archers to shoot for a while, but the enemy still rushed out wildly, and the direction was the cannon formation of the Suzaku Legion.
"Soldiers, line up and stop them! Cavalry, rush them!"
Zhao Yun ordered two consecutive orders, and the soldiers of the Qilin Legion hurriedly formed some outer elliptical defensive formations in front of the fortress, and directly stopped the soldiers of Wu from the fortress.
That doesn't count!
Under Zhao Yun's instructions, Zhang Ren led the cavalry to the enemy's crowd and made a lot of gains!
The fortress guard of Wu State knew that he could not watch the Suzaku Legion keep bombarding his own warships, he had to stop it!
But with Zhao Yun here, he couldn't rush out!
When he forced himself to rush, Zhao Yun ended his life with one shot!
Without the main general, the soldiers of Wu State on the shore became panicked. Zhao Yun took this opportunity to divide and surround him in one fell swoop and finally occupied the fortress.
The battle on the shore came soon and ended quickly. Under Zhao Yun's interception, he wanted to attack the artillery formation. The general of Wu also looked down on him too much.
The shelling on the shore was bombarded for about six rounds, and Zhou Yu couldn't bear it anymore!
Dongfangqiang was afraid of hurting his own people by chance, so he just shelled the warships behind Wu State, and did not shoot a single shot in the battle area ahead.
But Zhou Yu knew that his butt was bombarded by Pu Yuan Cannon, which would scare them all sooner or later.
"Soldiers, retreat!"
Zhou Yu was also a quick decision without any delay. After finding that the people on the shore were destroyed, he directly ordered a retreat.
Of course, Wu Shun would not let Zhou Yu come and go so easily. Gan Ning personally came to fight and snatched many Wu ships through the string battle.
Su Fei was prepared for the Wu Kingdom water ghost to cause trouble, and stayed in the water and dived into the water from time to time to check.
Wu Guoshui ghosts had a particularly crazy idea of drilling through the warships. They came one by one, died one by one, and the river water was dyed red!
However, their madness also achieved certain results. Under Su Fei's strict defense, the No. 02 warship was drilled through.
When they wanted to drill through the flagship No. 01, they were surrounded and killed by the Jiaolong Navy soldiers, killing them in the water, killing them 300 people!
In order to drill through the warship, Zhou Yu paid a heavy price!
And now, they need to leave!
Dongfangqiang kept shelling them. On the water surface, the Wuling army quickly stabilized its position. After Gan Ning fought, they led the soldiers to catch the strings and seize the ship. The soldiers of the Wu Kingdom could not compete with him!
The Wu warship rushed out of the artillery fire area desperately and went down the river in shame! Wu Shun was determined to pursue, but because there were iron chains in the water, he had to cut it off first.
Who knew that when all the iron chains in the water were cut off, Zhou Yu had run away without a trace!
The four warships were injured, and this time the Jiaolong Fleet suffered a great loss! Four warships were about to withdraw from the battle sequence and return to the factory for repair.
"King, why not go down the river and chase Zhou Yu!"
Gan Ning was unwilling to let Zhou Yu run away like this. He was about to rush to the tower ship where Zhou Yu was, but unfortunately he was shot back by the arrows of the Wu Navy.
Just as he was about to continue the attack, Zhou Yu suddenly ordered a retreat, because of the iron chain, Gan Ning could not pursue it.
