Spring and Autumn I Am King
Chapter 476: wind and fire
ps: Cough, the width of the Jishui River is a bit exaggerated. I searched the Shui Jing Note and found no description of the width of the downstream. It is reset to be half a li wide of the Pushui River, one li wide of the Jishui River, and two miles wide during the flood season. one of the great rivers. In addition, Liu Xiazhi's words before the net should be that the victory rate on the river is 82%, and the lake is 64%.
The third chapter of the new year is presented, please guarantee the monthly pass...
...
Qi State is close to the seashore. Because of the vast ocean and strange and changeable mirages that have been witnessed all the year round, the theory of immortals is rampant.
When the navy commander, Fanqi, was sailing offshore, he heard such a legend:
On the other side of the sea, there is a giant hibiscus tree in the far east, and under the hibiscus tree there is a soup valley where the sun rises. If after death, the soul does not return to the wormwood, but strays into the east, where ten suns shine in turns, the metal and stone melt and deform, and even the air will be ignited, and the soul will disappear without a trace.
Therefore, when the wizards of Qi State call for their souls, they will definitely shout: When the soul returns, the East cannot stay in the East!
If there is a **** in the pre-Qin people's view of ghosts and gods, then the Tanggu where Tenri is located can also be regarded as one of the "hells" in the four directions.
But now, I feel that my surroundings are similar to Tanggu, fire, all my eyes can see is fire!
When encountering the enemy boats, those Qi boats who went up to compete for merit were the first to suffer. Downstream they were eager to rush off these boats, but they watched helplessly as the rafts, flat boats and fishing boats were set on fire, carrying Deadly flames hit them along the Jishui River.
The boat is made of wood, the ropes are all over, and it is painted with waterproof paint. These three things are most afraid of open fire. The Qi boats were suddenly shocked. The two rows of paddles of the squat and the winglet rose and fell, swaying wildly like the feet of a centipede, struggling to reverse the direction, but to no avail. These centipedes have no way to escape.
At this time, the northeast wind was already very weak, and the boats that tried to turn their sails were caught up by dozens of fire boats drifting upstream, and then slammed into each other, and kissed them lightly with flaming lips.
Just a touch. The straw and paint burning on those fireboats ignited the hull and rigging, and the fire gradually spread, climbed over the ropes, climbed the deck, and burned violently on all kinds of wood.
The fire devoured Qi's ships at an unimaginable speed. The people who were engulfed in flames jumped into the water and let out inhuman howls.
Annoyed and seeing all this, his heart was pounding.
Being fooled, their long drive and the vulnerability of the ships just now were all Zhao Wuxi's tricks to lure them into a trap full of death and flames. He immediately issued a new order for the fleet to turn around and row back instead, and those Qi boats alongside it were also evacuating. Hope it doesn't catch fire.
This is a relatively narrow river channel in Jishui. They collided in a panic, and the oars and ropes of several ships were mixed together and could not be separated at all. Among them, including the winglet full of stone and straw!
Annoyed and hurriedly asked someone to cut the rope, but it was too late, and a red light flashed in my eyes, and the rocket arrow flew from the side of the ship and fell to the port side. In an instant, a burst of flames hissed and rose from the stern of the fully fueled winglet. churning, burning.
It was some robbers standing on simple rafts. They went down the river one after another when the Qi people were in a panic, and rowed over to attack. Then directly abandoned the boat and fled, jumped into the water to avoid.
Annoying and knowing what they were hiding from, the little wing stuffed with stone and straw was engulfed by the flames of the **, and then triggered an explosion, rumble! The explosion implicated Fanqi's boat, and even affected two or three scorpions around him. Huge shocks and flames churned across the river. Thick smoke billowed, and the deck beneath his feet disappeared. Annoyed and flew out of the boat by the air waves, and fell into the Jishui with a thud.
Fortunately, it was annoying and had excellent water quality. When he floated to the river again, the winglet was completely destroyed. The explosions of Shi Nie continued, and the fragments of the ship flew into the air. The big wing, which is the flagship, is entangled by it, completely surrounded by flames, the whole Jishui River seems to be boiling from the river, and there are burning wooden boards everywhere, soldiers falling into the water, and the fire boat is still going down the river, burning wood Sizzle.
He spit out the stagnant water, took a deep breath, grabbed the nearest plank, and held it tightly, but when he tried to swim to a reed to hide, he was dragged up by a hooked spear and dragged up by his armor, and was captured by Zhao Bing alive. Catch alive!
A bearded robber laughed: "Naigong is an expert at escaping on the water, so he knew that there would be people with good water to hide here. After waiting here for a long time, Naigong really caught a big fish!"
...
Zhao Wuxi stood motionless on the beacon tower by the river with his sword in hand. The Jishui River was raging with flames. Half of the Qi people's fleet that rushed upstream was set on fire. Heaps, the air is full of smoke, arrows and screams.
The reason for deciding the outcome on the river was because Zhao Wuxi couldn't bear the price of the enemy watching the army of Yuncheng show off its might and causing panic among the townspeople. Moreover, water warfare is no better than land warfare, and the quality of equipment determines the outcome to a large extent. Onozawa's boats are mostly single-deck boats, which are inherently disadvantaged. Can they really compete with the invincible Qiren on the Central Plains? Time waits for no one, and the water weapons that Zhao Wuxi imagined are too late to make and practice.
Therefore, Zhao Wuxi chose to use external force at the suggestion of Robber Zhi: simple and rude flames, designed to lure the enemy into the narrow river channel and attack them with fire.
The hot wind from the flames slapped the bare faces, and the boats were either burned, sunk, or stranded and captured. The thieves and soldiers who participated in the battle were cheering, they were catching the Qi people who swam ashore, and the daring thieves took rafts and searched for prey on the dangerous burning river.
Seeing that the victory was decided, Zhao Wuxi turned his head and asked the people around him, "Xu Cheng, how do you feel about this battle?"
Xu Cheng was a tall, thin middle-aged man in his forties. He was a shipbuilder from Wu State who had just arrived in Yuncheng from Xudi a few days ago. This man had a gloomy face, as if others owed him money at any time.
Yes, the people of Wu really owe him a state. This person is said to be a son of Xu Guo's family and a ship owner of Xu Guozhou's boat division. However, he was defeated and captured more than ten years ago in the battle of Wu country to destroy Xu. Xu Cheng was also captured by Wu Zixu by water attack. Xu Jun and his wife cut their hair. Surrender, Xu Kingdom perishes. Xu Cheng also became a small official in Wu Guozhou's division to manage the ships. This time, Zhao Wuxi asked Qu Wuji for a shipbuilder, and Qu Wuji threw him over.
Xing Ao was very attentive to what Zhao Wuxi explained, and specially wrote to Xu Cheng's resume, so Wu Xie knew so clearly. Xu Cheng is not incompetent. He can fight in water and build boats, but he is ostracized among the boatmen who are crowded with Wu people. Zhao Wuxi is considered a treasure and treats him like a guest.
So he brought Xu Cheng to watch the battle today, but he was thinking about taking the exam.
Xu Cheng said: "Qi people are good at fighting near sea, or fighting on wide lakes and large rivers, but they are not conducive to boat battles in narrow waterways, and the group of thieves in Onozawa is the opposite. Therefore, once the boat division of Qi State enters the narrow river, the advantage will be reversed. The Qi people are really stupid with their shortness and their longness. On the river, no matter how many boats there are, they are useless. At most 20 boats are set up at a time, lest the blades will be delivered and conflicted with each other, so this time Si Kou used the water and fire to attack the river, and there was no way to avoid it, so he defeated him in one fell swoop."
Zhao Wuxi nodded, Xu Cheng still had a few brushes, and he had just come to the point. Chujiu, Chujiu, have you heard these words, have you heard the burning of Qi Guozhou's division and the screams of the soldiers? This is not only due to my conspiracy, but also due to your stupidity, or, coupled with Chen's conspiracy.
As the battle drew to a close, half of the Qi ships were destroyed, but some of them escaped. The current was elusive, and the fireboats were not as evenly spread as Robber Zhi had planned. But this time the public boat division still suffered heavy losses, probably Chen's will be happy for it, right?
Wu Xie asked again: "If you were the commander-in-chief of Qi Guozhou's boat division, how would you fight this battle?"
Xu Chengdao: "If I were the commander-in-chief of the boat division, I would never act like this. First of all, I would select a few fast boats to go deep into the river, carefully inspect and spy on the truth, rather than rush in rashly. In this way, Si Kou's The strategy of fire attack is useless. When they reach the lake, the ships of Qi will enter the sea like dragons, and they will be able to exert their strengths. Liu Xiazhi has been traversing Dayeze for nearly ten years, but he claims to have a lower winning rate on the lake than in the river. His reasoning..."
"What about Wu Guo? How does Wu Guozhou compare to Qi Guozhou?"
Pain, Zhao Wuxi read it right, the moment when he mentioned Wu Guozhou, Xu Cheng's face flashed a trace of pain, but then it turned gloomy.
"Master Wu Guozhou~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is unparalleled in the world, the rivers in the south are vertical and horizontal, there are large rivers and lakes that are more than ten miles wide, and there are small rivers only a few feet long. It’s just as common for people to walk by car. On rivers and lakes, neither the state of Qi nor the state of Chu can compete with the people of Wu, and only the state of Yue can fight.”
This is Xu Cheng's personal experience many years ago. Wu has a royal boat "squatter" with nearly one hundred three wings, and thousands of other flexible light boats and boats. Whether it is water warfare or transporting troops, they are extremely skilled.
"But if they meet in the sea, the people of Qi can take advantage of the large number of boats and their familiarity with the waves to encircle them from both sides, squeeze Wu's boat division to the center, and destroy them all. Therefore, Qi people are invincible in naval battles, and Wu and Yue are two heroes in river and lake battles. As for the navy formed by the lake pirates under Xiao Sikou... With all due respect, it's okay to loot a few merchant ships, but if you want to fight with the navy masters of Qi, Chu, Wu, and Yue, you are basically defeated. Invincible..."
"Looking at a person, you have to listen to what they say and watch what they do. What kind of skill is it if you just say it and don't do it?"
Just when Xu Cheng was commenting on the boat divisions of the countries, Liu Xiazhi also boarded the beacon to report the victory. Hearing these words, he immediately regarded Xu Cheng as slandering him, and the atmosphere on the beacon suddenly changed to that of the people on the river. The flames were as heavy as smoke.
