Chapter 941 : Victory in the first battle

"Don't panic. Although the dragon boat is big, it is not flexibly excited. Everyone obeys the orders and just bring a musket and crossbow. After getting close to the enemy ship, first fire musket and crossbow arrows, then get close to the opponent's ship, then climb onto the enemy ship and fight against the enemy. You can defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!" Xu Da narrowed his eyes and looked at the dragon boat. After some conspiracy, he divided the ship into eleven teams according to the plan agreed last night, forming a siege of surround the dragon boat that was galloping.

Before departure, Liu Bowen had already told Xu Da that Chang Yuchun and the other two had the wind on the lake and would definitely reverse at noon, so Xu Da was not worried, and urged the soldiers to form a siege and gallop away.

Because Han Shixun and Chen Yougui were in a good wind, the dragon boat was very fast. Soon they arrived at the central area of ​​Poyang Lake. The lake surface was as calm as a mirror. Han Shixun shouted and called out the two dragon boats first. He ran over and followed him in a row. Xu Da saw that although the dragon boat was large, it was connected into a circle, which was not conducive to walking. With a command, eleven teams formed a siege and attacked the dragon boats from all directions. For a while, feather arrows and muskets shot the dragon boats from all directions.

The dragon boat was huge, and due to the 305-50-year chain, it was inconvenient to move, and it was unable to concentrate its forces to attack Zhu Yuanzhang's soldiers. In this way, the only way was to be beaten and not fight back. The eleven small boats were unpredictable, sometimes behind the dragon boat, sometimes appear on the side, and sometimes simply bumped into the head. This battle made the Han army very embarrassed.

Seeing that the opponent had no power to fight back, Chang Yuchun and Xu Da were the first to take the lead, so they drove straight to the side of the dragon boat under the lake water, roared along the side wall of the dragon boat, and climbed up. The two of them were already very powerful in martial arts and agile in reaching their hands. Although they had iron guards, they could not stop them.

On the boat on Xu Da, he saw that there were more than a thousand people on the dragon boat, but after the attacks just now, many casualties were killed or injured. At this time, when he saw an enemy rushing onto the dragon boat, it was already in chaos. The shouts, screams, and the sound of slashing swords made the dragon boat very noisy and lively.

Seeing this, Xu Da felt much more relieved and looked at Chang Yuchun. The two of them were on the left and right, and the sword flashed, and the sword light flashed over the man and the horse were overturned, and screamed.

There were only 300 people on the dragon boat, including 100 people holding powerful crossbows in their hands. They heard the screams and they all hurried to the bow of the ship. After all, there were no enemies here. If they met the enemy, they would take the opportunity to jump into the lake. It would be much better than being cut off by the enemy! So they were happy to look at the dragon boat. Xu Da and Chang Yuchun and others rushed from the first floor to the second floor, and no one fired an arrow.

Han Shixun on the opposite dragon boat was almost in his eyes when he saw the second dragon boat. A dragon boat of more than a thousand people, feather arrows, strong crossbows, cannons, big swords, and spears were all handed over. Xu Da and Chang Yuchun alone, even if they had high martial arts skills, as long as they greeted with arrows or used muskets and big swords, they would definitely let the two retreat. Unexpectedly, they had just rushed onto the dragon boat. None of the soldiers in the dragon boat stepped forward, and many of them jumped into the lake by turning their butts. What was even more outrageous was that they simply threw their weapons and surrendered, and turned the muskets to aim at their own people.

Seeing Xu Da, Chang Yuchun killed a while, a big dragon boat was about to fall into Xu Da's hands. Han Shixun was furious and waved his sword, shouting anxiously: "Those who surrendered at the moment are not mercy! No mercy!" With an order, hundreds of feather arrows shot the dragon boat on the left, and shot at the soldiers who escaped first or surrendered by abandoning their weapons. This time, the arrow fell down, and the soldiers who wanted to surrender were so scared that they picked up the guards' weapons. When Han Shixun stood opposite, he stood with one sword, shouting at the dragon boat with a fierce and vicious slogan: "Kill without any, kill without mercy!" He had to wave his sword again and slash at Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and the other two.

At this time, the eleven fleets of ships leaned on the dragon boats. Relying on the flexibility and change of the dragon boats, they unscrupulously shot and killed the Han army on the dragon boats in groups of three or five. The fishing boats cooperated with tacit understanding and kept wandering between the three dragon boats. They often unexpectedly attacked and unprepared, and shot and killed many Han army at the moment.

Although the Han army suffered a lot of casualties, there were a lot of people sending troops this time. In addition, most of them were elite soldiers from Chen Youliang Huangzhou. After a long battle, he was not afraid of the elusive Zhu army. Although his aura was suppressed by the other party, Han Shixun was on the dragon boat and gave back and forth guidance, the morale on the ship was not depressed, and he was not shouting to fight back.

In this battle, from early morning to noon, when the sky changed slightly, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun killed more than 1,000 enemies and captured the ship. They defeated Chen Youliang's front dragon ship in one fell swoop, and they wanted to retreat. Xu Chang and the other two fought side by side for many years, and had a tacit understanding in their hearts. Looking at the lake, they knew that what the military advisor said was not false. Xu Da ordered the Eleven Boat Team to be broken into pieces and prepared to return.

On the dragon boat not far away, Chen Youliang saw the situation on the surface of Poyang Lake clearly. Seeing the enemy, relying on the flexibility of the fishing boat, he used muskets, feather arrows and strong crossbows to shoot and kill the soldiers, then approached the dragon boat, climbed the dragon boat, killed the soldiers on the dragon boat, and took the opportunity to capture the dragon boat.

He was so nervous that he gritted his teeth and turned to Chen Yougui, "General Chen, lead your soldiers and the dragon boat to rush over to me. Remember that the dragon boats disperse themselves, and the three dragon boats ambush archers from all directions. Once the enemy's fishing boats approach, they will shoot with crossbows, and can also be hit hard by the dragon boats!"

"yes!"

Chen Yougui saw the soldiers on the dragon boat shrank into a ball and dared not fight. He couldn't help but smoke. He had already wanted to show his skills. He was worried that he would not dare to move forward rashly. At this time, he received the order, pulled out the single sword from his waist, stood on the bow of the boat and shouted, "Listen to all soldiers, those who dared to shrink and fight, and those who did not work hard will be killed without mercy!"

"Kill without mercy!" Thousands of people on the dragon boat shouted in unison, and the sound was like thunder.

"Brother Xu, the Han army is here again. The military advisor said that when the sky changes, it is when the Han army is lured to take the bait. I think it's almost time for us to evacuate!" Chang Yuchun killed a Han army, reached out to touch the blood on his face, looked up at the sky, and jumped steadily to Xu Da, lowered his voice.

Xu Da gritted his teeth and pulled back a single sword from the chest of a Han army. He looked back at the dragon boat that was sailing over, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, saying, "Brother Chang said very well. The words of the military advisor have always been extremely accurate. I will order the soldiers to retreat!"

Chen Yougui, who received the order, wanted to rush to the battlefield immediately and fight for a while, but after a while, he gradually began to change. The dragon boat was much heavier than the boat, and his speed was inevitably slower. He was secretly anxious. Suddenly, the ship that entered Zhu Jun retreated quickly. The dense ships broke into pieces, stretching for dozens of miles, like a long snake stretching on the lake!

"Hahaha... Haha... God helps me, the opportunity is here..." When he saw Xu Da, Chang Yuchun's army retreated and even formed a long snake formation. Chen Yougui was overjoyed. The dragon ship was extremely huge. He just needed to quickly hit him and cut it off, so that Xu Da and Chang Yuchun could not connect to each other. At that time, what's the difficulty of Chang Yuchun to eliminate Xu Da? "

Thinking of such a rare opportunity that he was actually encountered by himself, Chen Yougui was overjoyed. He didn't care about sailing against the current and ordered his soldiers to speed up and chase him.

The wind whistled on the lake. Due to the reversal of the wind direction, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun's ships galloped. Han Shixun and Chen Yougui followed and chased Xu Da, one after another, and rushed to Kangshan.

Behind several huge rocks around Kangshan, a figure jumped back and forth on several hidden warships from time to time on the huge rocks, and was extremely agile. After a sudden pounce, a splash of water splashed. The whole body sank into the bottom of the water like a fish. The lake water around was extremely deep, but the man didn't notice it at all. His body was swimming, which was not much slower than the fish.

Soon, the right side of the middle warship behind the huge rock rushed out with a slam, and the water man in the water mistook the water droplets on his face, and breathed, "Damn, the military advisor is really accurate, the wind direction has changed, and the Han army's dragon boat is indeed chasing him!"

"Come?" asked a short man with thick eyebrows and big eyes on the bow of the boat in surprise.

"Here!" The man in the water responded, and his body turned in the water, stirring up a splash of water. After the splash fell to the ground, the man was already sitting on the boat, allowing the water all over his body to flow slowly. He was tall, with thick lips and thick eyebrows, and the only one eye was always looking at the confused lake.

This person is named Yu Haitong. He was born in the late Yuan Dynasty. He was originally from Haozhou (now Linhuai Pass, Fengyang, Anhui). He followed his father to take a boat to the east, and Yuanxu

In the year of Yin, the three brothers moved to Chao (now Chaohu Lake, Anhui). Zhu Yuanzhang raised an army in Fengyang, and the father and son established Chaohu Navy Zhaimushan, and once joined forces with Li Pusheng to attack the Yuan army in Luzhou. Zhu Yuanzhang stationed troops in Heyang (now Hexian), and Yu Tonghai planned to surrender. Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed when he heard this and went to Chaohu to respond and became Zhu Yuanzhang's important navy. In recent years, the three brothers helped Zhu Yuanzhang defeat Zhenjiang, Ningguo, Shuiyang and others. In the battle with the left prime minister of Yuan, Lu Zhen, Yu Tonghai was defeated by his right eye.

He was injured, but he was determined to command the three armies of the army, cavalry and water to pacify Tong'an. This time the three brothers were transferred by Zhu Yuanzhang. The person who spoke just now was the second brother Yutongyuan and a powerful general. In the 12th year of Zhizheng, the Jianghuai army started and accompanied his father and brother to join Yilu to defend the village. In the 14th year, he entered Chaohu Jieshuizhai and followed Zhu Yuanzhang. After the father and son crossed the river, captured the Yuan general Zhao Niuer, and then seized the quarry and decided to take Jinling. Later, he served as the attendant of the house because of his father and brother, and accumulated merits and the assistant general of the army, which was very powerful.
