1095 Riding the Wind and Arson, Is This the Battle of Chibi?
When Zhang Wu heard Chai praise him again, he grinned his teeth, then patted his chest, and said boldly:
"I have specialized in my skills, but I dare not say anything else, but I have been in charge of the navy for most of my life. When I served in Shu, pacifying the warlords of each Sichuan, and even fighting the rebellion, I will not only have the small battles and fight against the enemy, but also defeating the enemy in one fell swoop. Among all the various tactics, fire attacks will be the most effective.
Since the last general knows how to set fire to the enemy in the water battle, he certainly knows how to prevent the enemy from attacking with fire. Chai Jie is at ease and feel at ease. Now that the arrangements are fully prepared, even if the Wu people are delusional and intend to plot against our army under the wind, they are destined to fail!"
Although Chai Zaiyong strives to excel, he developed the water war skills after middle age. After all, he became a monk halfway through. If he is the head coach of the navy, he will inevitably have omissions. Most of his previous generals and subordinates lacked the experience of water war. Now with Zhang Wu, a full-level number of assists in water warfare, his role is indeed particularly critical when fighting against the enemy army, which is known for water warfare in Wu.
Zhang Wu was already quite old when he first joined the army, but now he is stronger. Chai Zai used this to treat him with a bad face but respected him very much. Zhang Wu was not a shy and pretentious person. He did not lose his politeness and responded with a smile. Naturally, he had to do his best to assist him well, so as to promote the Wei Dynasty to defeat the Wu Navy.
Although he was a general of Shu, Zhang Wu was in charge of the navy in Badong before, and was wary of the enemy's congress going up the river and attempting to invade Shu. However, the main force of the Wei Dynasty army was to enter Shu Road from the north and quickly destroy Shu Kingdom. He had almost no place to use his skills... Zhang Wu was very open-minded. In the past, the killing and attacking in troubled times, the city had changed its flag. The rulers of the two Sichuans were originally named Chen, Gu, and then Wang, and now the surname was Li (the surname will be Meng in the future). As a general of the Sichuan and Shu army, at least for now, it is difficult to talk about the feelings of family and country for those monarchs who successively ruled the Shu Emperor.
In short, I joined the army and joined the army to follow the former emperor Jian of Shu, and then was granted the title of King Yan of the Last Emperor, but now the Wei Dynasty ruled the two rivers. According to Zhang Wu, we joined the army as generals, in order to make a name for themselves, and although we are old, we thought it would be fine to keep guarding the place in the future... But since the Emperor of the Wei Dynasty respects us, Chai Jieshuai also regards us as a character. No matter how old he is, the Sichuan and Chongqing men have to rise up again. After striving for great achievements, how many levels of promotion can be promoted, and we can better benefit our children and grandchildren. As a military general, isn't this what we are trying to do?
However, Zhang Wu said boldly, and he suddenly paused, and after a moment of silence, he sighed:
"But although the Wu army's fire attack has a way to resolve the fire attack... In terms of heart, the new firearms equipped by our Zhoumai are really amazed by the general. If it is easy to be in the place, the general will be defended by the general, and facing the offensive of our Zhoumai, we will probably be caught off guard and will probably end up in a crushing defeat..."
After hearing Zhang Wu's words, Chai smiled slightly, then looked around and saw smaller and more sophisticated catapults standing on the surrounding warships, as well as sailors and soldiers walking back and forth, inspecting rod arms, winches, cables and other ordnance components.
The irritating oil bombs filled with tinder oil and mixed with flammable materials in proportion were previously kept and have been transported to the sealed and partitioned cabin. Chai was once used to witness the power of the new stone thrower launching a piece of irritating fire bombs. It seems that the time and place are more advantageous than the Wu army, but when such a killer is used, why don’t you care about the wind and wind?
However, good steel should naturally be used on the blade. Considering that the Wu army is likely to use the fire attack method... Chai thought it would be best to lure the enemy to use their killer weapon first. The boat master who took the lead was still equipped according to the traditional standard, and considering that at the most appropriate time, the enemy's most violent attacks...
After Chai Zai thought about it in his heart, he immediately ordered that the Wei army's water camp immediately sounded drums and thunder were heard, and a large number of ships were commanded by Zhao Tingyin and had already driven away from the shore and headed towards the middle of the river.
Opposite the vast Yangtze River, there are also many mast sails, and warships of all sizes occupy almost ten miles wide on the river. Although compared with the Wei Dynasty's tower ships, the large warships of the Wu Navy are generally smaller than the number one, and the proportion of light ships and boats is much higher... But the water on the south bank, the two villages of Han also rose with a murderous aura. Xu Wen was sitting upright on the platform built by the Han village on the shore, looking down, watching the huge fleet on the south bank, and even the formation of the Wei army on the other side.
Nearly a thousand guards surrounded the high platform, and there were also a group of men accompanying them in the handsome chairs. Xu Wen saw that the Wei army's boatman opposite had begun to move. Although his face was gloomy, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and a cold smile appeared...
With Xu Wen's current identity, he would not board the ship to participate in the water battle in person, so he supervised the battle in Hanzhai and ordered Li Decheng to take up the flagship to command the navy. At present, Xu Wen couldn't help but murmur in his heart. He had heard that Li Decheng was called a lucky general in the army. Could it be that it was so effective? I ordered him to command the navy, and when he fought with the Wei Chaozhou Army, the east wind would be blown into pieces within a few days. Could this be that God blessed my Xu family and the Xu family would definitely defeat the Wei army?
Of course, Xu Wen could not know the principle that considering the terrain factors, forming cold and high pressure according to the changes in the seasons, affecting the wind direction... But in his opinion, the current situation has indeed become more favorable to the Wu Navy.
The Wei Dynasty had many ships, so what if it was a huge power? In the Chengxian period of Jingnan and Feng Hongduo of Shengzhou, they were all famous for their large-scale fleet of boat troops. They were also defeated by our Wu navy? Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the first lords gathered heroes and made great efforts, and then conquered a country. At the beginning of the water war, which powerful force had our Wu army feared? On land, even if the Wei Dynasty defeated the vassals and successively destroyed the Liang, Jin, and Shu countries, it can be said that they were invincible... But on the water surface, the Wu navy was still the best in the world!
I had already decided how to defeat the Wei army in one fell swoop. Now it can be said that God is doing good... Let our army be entangled in the enemy Ark Division, and then wait for the most appropriate time to send a fleet to the North Bank Water Village, take advantage of the wind to set fire and burn the boats to burn the village. How can your Wei army deal with it?
After Xu Wen thought about it, he waved his hand again. Seeing this, the military academy beside him immediately waved the flag. On top of the Wu army warship that covered the large area of the river, various naval soldiers were waiting on the deck. On one of the large ships, Li Decheng was wearing armor and stood at the bow of the ship surrounded by more than a dozen naval generals.
Seeing that the Hanzhai Highway also had a banner, Li Decheng gritted his teeth and thought that after all, he would be the one who would command the navy to confront the Wei army, whom he didn't want to provoke... As for the southeast wind that has blown recently, Li Decheng himself couldn't think of any reason, but he felt much more at ease... He gritted his teeth and immediately ordered loudly. The fleet that Wu army, which was ordered to lead the battle will also sail off the shore one after another to fight with the Wei army's vanguard fleet for a while!
Among the fleet that had already swam, a battleship about three feet high, with tree-tooth flags and banners standing on the front, back, left and right, Wu naval army was standing solemnly, and his eyes were filled with cold murderous intent. General Li Decheng, the general of Wu, who was leading the fleet to fight first, sat cross-legged on the ground with a big golden sword. He clenched his hands and shook them, and suddenly threw the porcelain bowl in front of him. Three dice bones made a crisp sound. The general of Wu army looked at him and laughed wildly:
"It's true that it's still a humble flower (all the dice thrown are red dots)! His grandmother, Xu Gong ordered Li Decheng to take charge, and God will respond to the east wind of the Wu army. Now we will get a good start. Throwing the humble flower is a sign that our army will burn the Wei people's water camp for half a day?
What's so great about the Wei people? This time they will slash their spirits on the waters. They will strive to make achievements first, and I, Liu Xin, will take the lead!"
