"One two...one two...one two...one two..." Amid the rhythmic shouting, Zhou Jun's paddle was rowing hard according to the rhythm. The years of exercise came in handy at this time. The speed of the clutch was getting faster and faster, rushing forward.

Each clutch had more than fifty oars, and the long oars on both sides were densely packed, making these narrow and long hulls look like centipedes. Each ship had drummers beating drums, and the sound of drums as dense as raindrops was endless, igniting the fighting spirit of the soldiers on the ship.

Everything seemed to be back to the usual competition, with countless clutches racing on the lake, drums cheering people, and all distracting thoughts were thrown behind the mind. The only thought was to row the boat according to the rhythm.

In the middle of the cabin, there were many soldiers sitting. They were wearing heavy armor, holding a spear in their hands, with bows and arrows and swords across their waists. They were resting. Water columns splashed from the water outside the porthole from time to time. They were stone bullets shot by the enemy in front, and the giant arrows fell into the water and splashed in the water.

A "dong" sounded, and the roof of the cabin shook. The soldiers raised their heads and saw that the roof of the cabin was pierced by a giant arrow, and the arrow penetrated about an inch into the cabin.

The roof is about five inches thick and covered with pig skin. The giant arrow shot by the enemy's large crossbow almost broke the defense. It is conceivable what would happen if a person was hit by an arrow. Before the soldiers in the cabin came to think too much, they heard the general shouting: "It's going to the beach! Everyone is ready!"

As soon as the words were finished, the soldiers heard countless sounds coming in front of them, the howling sounds of large crossbows, the neighing sounds of war horses, the "crackling" sounds of wood burning, the howling sounds, and the jingle sounds of arrows hitting armor.

“Prepare, prepare!”

With the shouting, the ship suddenly slowed down, and the bow seemed to hit something, and a clatter of friction came from the bottom of the ship. The hull condensed, and many people couldn't help but lean forward. If it weren't for the previous training that gave everyone a coping experience, they would probably be crowded on the spot.

The hull stopped, and the general looked outside through the observation hole, then pulled his throat and shouted: "Prepare, listen to my orders...three, two, one...open the hatch!!"

The cabin door in front of the ship, which was like a door panel, suddenly opened, falling like a city gate suspension bridge that was put down. What was presented to the soldiers were dense wooden stakes on the mudflat. Looking up, it was Yan Yan Zhang Tian’s 6 villages.

On the left and right of their own ships, there were densely packed with warships on their own. Some warships had already caught fire, some had been smashed by stone bombs, and some were blocked by wooden piles on the tidal flats and could not rush to the beach.

More warships forced their way to the beach and successfully jumped off countless soldiers, braved their arrows and advanced towards the enemy camp on the shore.

"Roar, rush up!!"

The general pulled out his sword, pointed to the shore, and jumped off the boat first. The soldiers then jumped off the boat one after another and advanced forward on the muddy flats. Both of their feet were trapped in the mud to varying degrees, resulting in slow progress and becoming a living target for Chen Jun archers.

The soldiers holding a large shield in front of them were the best shooting target of Chen Jun’s large crossbow. Many people were shot into the torso by giant arrows passing through the shield, and fell to the ground and died as if they were fish in a harpoon fork, while more people continued to rush forward.

Many people bent their bows and arrows to shoot, but because there is no shield to cover them, everyone is wearing several arrows like hedgehogs. Although it looks very tragic, the double armor on their bodies protects them safely and does not avoid arrows, which increases the casualty rate sharply. At the same time, the benefit is that every arrow shot will kill one person.

Chen Jun was guarding against the Zhou army from the water attack, and the Zhou army also practiced the beach climbing for a long time. The boarding for the time being conducted from time to time every month gave everyone confidence and became accustomed to fighting in the muddy flats. Even the dense wooden stakes became covers for themselves to avoid arrows.

Many Zhou army warships on the beach were carrying archers, and they shot against Chen army archers in the 6 villages with their tall hulls. There were large crossbows on the ships to shoot rockets at the 6 villages. The battle between the two sides became fierce as soon as they started. The Zhou army, which was landing on a large scale, obviously wanted to gain a foothold on the bank of the river and attack the Chen army 6 villages.

The heavy thunder of the sky was carried off the ship by the soldiers, transported through the mudflats, and then approached the camp with arrows. The short distance took quite a long time. Every step, someone would be shot by the arrows, and the blood splashed out dyed the thunder of the sky they transported red.

Of course, Chen Jun knew that the Zhou army had thunder bombs, so the Zhou soldiers who transported the thunder bombs were the first target of Chen Jun's crossbowmen. Seeing that the opponent had approached the camp, the ready-made dead soldiers picked up their weapons and jumped off the wall of the village to rush towards the Zhou soldiers.

The pointed hammer that had been burned red can only be swung one or two to detonate the sky-burning thunder in Zhou Bing's hands. Although he is inevitably crushed to pieces, it can at least be exchanged for a generous pension: their lives have been bought by Shangguan.

Thunder kept ringing, and some thunders were detonated in advance by the Chen army's dead soldiers, but more thunders were detonated at the fence of the Chen army camp. In the thick smoke, Zhou Bing with feather arrows stuck in his body rushed into the camp howled and fought with the Chen Bing who were surrounded.

Dust was flying, and many soldiers rushed towards the 6 villages. Xincai City, not far away, sent reinforcements to reinforce the 6 villages on the riverside as a pinnacle. Xincai is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River, just north of Caishan, Jiangxinzhou, and is the site of the Hengjiang iron chain on the north side of its northern side.

In order to prevent the Zhou army from attacking Jiangbei and cutting off the Hengjiang iron chain, Chen army arranged additional heavy troops in Xincai. Now the Zhou army is indeed attacking. He thought that the six villages by the river could make them retreat with the difficulties, but he did not expect that the opponent's offensive would be so fierce.

Looking at the densely packed beach warships by the river and looking at Cai Shan, who was swelling in the sky in the river, the general Chen army realized that he had underestimated Zhou Jun's determination: the other party was in such a situation as soon as he came up, and he was afraid he would be gambled.

Xincai County, Xincai County, is under the jurisdiction of Jinzhou. Jinzhou is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River and borders Qizhou under the jurisdiction of the Huangzhou General Administration of Zhou State on the west side. After the Zhou army launched a large-scale southward attack, the Chen army of Jinzhou rushed to various important places at the junction of the two states to garrison, intending to block the other side's army from eastward advance.

Therefore, Xin Cai's troops were actually a little short of strength. However, in order to strengthen the defense of the Caishan Hengjiang iron chain, reinforcements were sent from Jiangzhou, the south bank of the downstream to enhance their defense. If it is normal, unless the Zhou army attacks and attacks, it will be impossible to cross the river and attack calmly.

As a result, the opponent sent troops to the north bank of 6 to attack without winning the water battle. The generals of the Chen army were a little disbelief, because judging from the current situation, so many Zhou troops boarded 6 Jiangbei to attack Xincai. If the Zhou army failed to fight, these soldiers who came ashore had no choice but to retreat, there would be only a dead end.

Where did the Zhou army get the confidence that can ensure victory in the water battle?

"Caval! It's the cavalry of the Zhou army!"

Looking in the sound, I saw dust on the river bank west of the six villages on my side, and many cavalrymen came to us. Judging from their number, they were afraid that they could not be less than hundreds.

"The Zhou army even brought the cavalry to the shore! So many!"
