Three Kingdoms: The ghost plotter taught Liu Bei to seize Jingzhou first

Above the Han River.

The two fleets were heading toward each other.

Three hundred strides apart.

Flagship of Jingzhou Army.

Cai Mao looked at the"Gan" flag with contempt and cold eyes. he knows.

The commander of Liu Jun's navy was the Jinfan thief who killed Kuai Chui.

"Gan Ning is a thief!"

"You are just making a small fuss, just rob an official ship, but you actually want to command the navy to fight with me, Cai Mao?"

"Today I will teach you what a real water fight is!"

Cai Mao raised the corner of his mouth and raised the sword in his hand:

"Send the order, beat the drum and advance, destroying the enemy ship in one go!"

As soon as Cai Mao comes, he will press the entire army.

In his opinion, his own fleet has a clear advantage in both quantity and quality.

Using force to overwhelm others is the simplest and most effective tactic.

"Boom boom!"

The sound of thunderous drums rang out in the Jingzhou fleet.

Each ship raised all its sails, and the sailors rowed wildly with all their strength. A fleet of nearly 600 tower ships, fighting ships, and stern ships took the lead in accelerating and rushing. Up.

The Jingzhou Army takes the lead in attacking!

The two armies are close to a hundred paces.

This distance has already entered the range of the crossbow.

"Fire arrows from every ship to hit me to death!"

Cai Mao waved his sword and shouted the order.

The flag of the order waved.

In an instant, thousands of sharp arrows rose in the ships, densely packed like a dragnet, rushing towards the Liu Jun warship.

On the Liu Jun flagship.

Gan Ning Bu Moving like a mountain, facing the oncoming arrow rain, he waved the long knife in his hand and shouted:

"Send an order, all ships can avoid the arrows, no arrows are allowed to counterattack!"

On the flagship, the flag was swaying like the wind.

On each warship, Liu Jun's sailors quickly crouched down and raised their shields to block the arrows.

Under the arrows!

Under Gan Ning's sword curtain, all the oncoming arrow rains were was blocked.

However, the enemy's arrow rain was too dense, and many of Liu's soldiers were still shot to the ground by sharp arrows.

Scattered screams echoed on the river.

Liu's"Zero-30" Army Instead of firing arrows, the Jingzhou army fired arrows wantonly, suppressing Liu Jun until he could not lift his head.

At first glance, Jingzhou had the upper hand in this confrontation.

North bank.

When the generals saw this situation, their nerves became tense.

"There are more enemy warships than ours, and the building ships are more than twice as many as ours. The advantage of firing arrows from a high position is obvious."

"Xingba's initial formation was unfavorable and he lost the initiative."

Liu Bei frowned, and his words gradually contained a hint of worry.

Zhang Fei, on the other hand, scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, pointed at the river and shouted:

"Brother, do you think Gan Ning knows how to fight? Why didn't he shoot back with arrows and just take the beating passively?"

As soon as he yelled, Liu Bei immediately noticed something unusual.

Logically speaking, the most important method for naval battles is long-range strike with bows and crossbows.

Even he, a landlubber, knows this.

Under normal circumstances, Gan Ning should have ordered bows long ago. The crossbowman fired the arrow, and Cai Hao's crossbow moved in response.

But Gan Ning didn't react at all, and just endured the beating passively.

"Ziyu, please dominate him..."

Liu Bei turned back to look at Deng Mu, worried in his heart, but hesitated to speak.

Deng Mu smiled, pointed at the river and said:

"Lord, with Gan Xingba's temper, how could he not fight back when being beaten? He was deliberately showing weakness to Cai Mao."

Showing weakness to Cai Mao?

Liu Bei was shocked and looked back at the battle on the river.

On the river, the fleets of the two armies were no more than fifty steps apart.

The sky above his own warships was completely covered by dense arrow nets.

What do you think? , it seems that his navy has been suppressed, unable to raise its head, and unable to fight back.

It doesn't seem like Gan Ning did it intentionally?

"Lord, we must have confidence in Xingba"

"I think he is showing weakness on purpose and must have some strange tricks up his sleeve, so let’s wait and see."

Deng Mu, however, looked calm and composed, and comforted with an optimistic look.

Liu Bei thought that Deng Mu was so calm, so he had nothing to worry about, so he suppressed his worries and continued to watch the battle. The battle on the river seemed to be on the Jingzhou side. Has occupied an overwhelming advantage.

On the bow of Liu Jun's flagship.

Gan Ning danced wildly with the sword in his hand, blocking all the incoming enemy arrows.

Those eagle eyes could clearly see through the iron curtain. The enemy troops were approaching.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and a sneer flashed across his face as if the trick had succeeded.

The time had come.

Gan Ning kept dancing with his sword and shouted:

"Pass the order, the trapped team will attack immediately!"

On the flagship, the drum beat suddenly became louder.

The order was passed.

Behind each fighting ship, nearly thirty hidden stern ships immediately came out from behind the ship, formed a line formation, and rushed towards the enemy ship..

On board the flagship of the Jingzhou Army. When

Cai Mao saw this scene, a flash of surprise flashed across his conceited face.

Suddenly, he understood Gan Ning's tactics.

Deliberately not firing arrows to counterattack was a deliberate show of weakness, which made him feel confident and bold. He was approaching with all his strength.

When the two armies were close, they released the fast ships they had hidden in advance and launched a surprise attack.

Those thirty or so fast ships obviously wanted to rely on their speed to stick to his battleships and board them. The ship launched a close combat.

The surprise lasted only a moment, and then Cai Mao's face showed sarcasm and disdain again.

"What kind of climate can a mere thirty-odd fast ships achieve!"

Cai Mao pointed his sword and shouted sternly:

"After passing the order, the crossbowmen aimed at the enemy speed ships and intercepted them for me!"

The order was passed down.

The crossbowmen of each ship quickly changed their direction and attacked the rushing Liu Army's formation ship. From all directions, the sky was overwhelming!

The warships were divided into tower ships, fighting ships, and stern ships according to their size.

Among the three types of main warships, Panchong is the smallest warship in terms of volume and tonnage. Its advantage is that it has the fastest speed, but its disadvantage is that the ship's walls are too thin and its defense is extremely weak. In

Cai Mao's imagination, he was covered with thousands of sharp arrows Going down, these thirty ships were shot into hedgehogs in an instant, and they could be blocked easily.

However, unexpectedly, although the Jingzhou Army's arrow rain was dense, it could not stop the speed of the ships.

"what happened?"

"Is there something weird about rushing a ship?"

Cai Mao saw something was wrong, and his expression suddenly changed.

At this moment, a confident sneer appeared on Gan Ning's lips.

The soldiers on these thirty ships were his most direct descendants and the most elite eight hundred

How could he let them die in vain for such a direct descendant? These thirty ships seemed to have the same appearance as ordinary ships, but two layers of cowhide and a layer of straw were added to the inner walls.

Modified in this way The purpose is not to affect the speed of the ship, but also to effectively buffer the lethality of enemy arrows and protect the lives of the soldiers involved.

This is Gan Ning's original tactic.

He relied on this method to roam the Han River with eight hundred water thieves.

"Seeing that Cai Mao's flagship is missing, rush forward!"

"If Cai Mao is killed, the Jingzhou army will collapse!"

Gan Ning ordered Wenpin to command the main fleet, and he personally drove a stern ship directly to the Jingzhou Army flagship. He rushed directly to the enemy's flagship and beheaded the enemy's general!

This was another secret of his victory in water battles.!

So thirty ships rushed forward, like swordfish in the water, taking turns to cover, and pounced on Cai Mao's building ship from all directions.

"No, I fell into the trap of that Jinfan thief!"

At this moment, Cai Mao on the flagship finally realized the truth and couldn't help but turn pale with shock.

The Jinfan thief, by not counterattacking with arrows, was deliberately showing weakness, inducing him to underestimate the enemy and advance rashly, so that the fleets of the two armies would quickly approach.

He was in Underestimating the enemy, he even pushed his flagship too far forward and was directly exposed in front of the enemy.

The Jinfan thief was waiting for this moment. He immediately rushed to the fast ship with his stern, launched a surprise attack at close range, and captured his flagship in one fell swoop. Once lost, his 6,000 naval troops and more than 500 warships will be defeated without a fight.

"Damn, this Jinfan thief is so cunning!"

"Send an order to all ships to block the thief and protect the general's flagship."

Cai Mao was shocked and angry, and shouted with a trembling voice.

It was too late.

The distance between the two armies was too close, and he rushed at an extremely fast speed. Before the enemy warships could stop him, he passed through the enemy's warship formation and rushed straight to the flagship. and go

"Hit me——"

Then Gan Ning shouted loudly.

A corner ram was installed and it hit the side wall of the ship hard.

"Click!"

There was a loud noise, and the collision angle wedged into the hull of the ship.

Under the impact, the huge ship swayed a few times, and many soldiers could not stand stably and fell to the ground screaming.

Cai Mao even more He was knocked to the ground and fell to the ground, extremely embarrassed.

Gan Ning, who was rushing forward, used the power of inertia to jump up and jumped onto the building ship.

Facing the three Jingzhou soldiers, he instinctively waved The knife came forward and chopped.

Gan Ning gave a sharp shout and the knife came out like lightning.

"Click, click, click!"(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Three heads flew out in response.

Gan Ning, who landed on the ground, stood on the deck like a god descending from heaven.

The Jingzhou soldiers around him were actually killed by him. Shocked by the divine power, I was stunned and panicked for a moment. No one dared to step forward.

"What are you waiting for!"

"Come and kill me!"

Gan Ning swung his blood sword behind him.

The soldiers who followed were all naked, holding the ring-headed sword, and rushed onto the building ship.

With the thundering sound of killing, this group of warriors rushed into the building like a tiger. The crowd rushed towards the panicked Jingzhou soldiers like crazy.

The killing began.

The swords were slashed down, and the Jingzhou soldiers who were in a state of chaos were chopped down innumerable in an instant.

Gan Ning let out a tiger roar and flew towards him with his sword..

The knife fell from his hand, and the knife fell from his hand...

One after another, he cut off the heads and fell to the ground. A trail of blood stretched from the bottom deck to the top deck.

Gan Ning had only one goal: to capture Cai Mao!

Capture the thief first. Capture the king!

How could Gan Ning be so skilled in martial arts that ordinary soldiers could stop him?

He slashed and killed all the way, and in a blink of an eye, he was on the top deck.

At this moment,

Cai Mao's face was as pale as paper, and his face was twisted. Frightened and angry.

He knew that the loss of the flagship was a foregone conclusion.

Once the flagship was lost, his six thousand navy troops would collapse.

And the person who defeated him was actually a humble water thief!

"hateful!"

"I, Cai Mao, the best general in Jingzhou, was defeated by a water thief in a water battle!"

"I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled~~"

Cai Mao was gnashing his teeth and clenching his fists until they cracked.

"General, the situation is over and the flagship cannot be defended."

"Abandon ship quickly!"

The guards beside him tried to persuade him.

After Cai Mao hesitated for a long time, he had no choice but to stamp his feet. Then, surrounded by his guards, he tried to switch away and escape.

It was too late.

Gan Ning was holding a bloody knife in his hand. Like a murderer, he boarded the top deck 0.

Cai Hao's face changed and he shouted ferociously:

"Kill him. Kill this Jinfan thief for me.——"

The guards did not dare to disobey, so they rushed forward with roars.

"You are seeking death!"

Gan Ning snorted coldly, and jumped up with his sword.

He used his unparalleled sword skills, like chopping vegetables and melons, and killed more than ten personal guards in an instant.

In the blink of an eye,

Cai Mao became a lonely man, and was Gan Ning was forced to the flagpole

"Gan Ning!"

"I am the number one general under Liu Jingsheng, and I am the head of the Cai family!"

"I advise you to be aware of the current situation and let me go, otherwise you will regret it!"

At this time, Cai Mao was still relying on his own identity, and said harsh words to Gan Ning with a sullen expression.

"The head of the Cai family?"

"I'm going to cut you down, you idiot!"

Gan Ning snorted disdainfully and jumped up. The long knife in his hand was like lightning, and he slashed out wildly.

Cai Hao didn't want Gan Ning to ignore his threat, so he took action immediately.

In a hurry, he had no time to think too much and could only rely on instinct. He raised his sword to resist.

With his meager martial arts skills, how could he be a match for Gan Ning?

Before the sword movement even came out, the blade had already arrived.

"Click!"

Cai Mao screamed, and the arm holding the sword was chopped off.

"ah~~"

The head of the Cai family, the number one general in Jingzhou, screamed and fell to his knees on the ground.

"Vulnerable! Gan

Ning snorted disdainfully and shouted:

"Raise my flag for me"

"Let me hang this guy on the mast again, and let his soldiers see that their leader has fallen into my hands!"

After saying that, Gan Ning slashed out with his sword.

The flag rope was cut off at the sound.

"The flag with the word"Cai" fell to the ground.

The soldiers behind him swarmed up and tied up the broken-armed Cai Mao and hung it high on the mast.

"Gan Ning!"

"Jinfan thief!"

"I am the head of the Cai family, how dare you insult me ​​like this?——"

Cai Mao was so ashamed and angry that he howled and cursed like crazy.

Gan Ning, on the other hand, watched him restlessly as if he were a clown, admiring the ugliness of the head of the largest family in Jingzhou.

Surrounded by Jingzhou Army warships.

When they saw the flag with the word"Gan" raised on top of the flag, they were all in a state of confusion.

And when he saw their commander being hoisted on the mast, his morale instantly collapsed.

"The flagship is lost!"

"General Cai was captured alive!"

"We're done, let's escape back to the south bank!"

The frightened screams of the soldiers rang out on the ships.

Eight thousand Jingzhou troops and five or six hundred warships collapsed in the face of the wind.

They scrambled, turned the bows of the ships, and fled towards the south bank.

The situation on the battlefield, Reversal in an instant

"Military Advisor Deng's ability to recognize people is truly unparalleled in the world!"

"This Gan Xing's talent in water warfare is indeed far superior to mine, and he is indeed more suitable to command the navy than me..."

Wen Pin sighed, and his trust in Deng Mu increased.

Then he drew his sword in his hand, happily shouted:

"The enemy army has been defeated. The whole army is pressing forward. Give me the chase!"

The horn sounded.

Liu Jun's officers and men were in high spirits and their morale was like a rainbow.

Four hundred warships roared up and chased the disintegrated enemy ships crazily.

The enemy ships were unable to turn around and were quickly chased by Liu Jun. Up.

Countless Jingzhou soldiers fell to the ground with rain of arrows.

Hundreds of 2.4 battleships were captured by Liu Jun, and the flag with the word"Gan" was raised.

Above the Han River, the wails of the Jingzhou army echoed.

North bank.

Bu. Seeing the miraculous reversal of the situation, the officers and soldiers were all overjoyed and excited to the point of roaring with excitement.

"Ziyu, Gan Ning wins!"

"Gan Ning really won this battle!"

Liu Bei was ecstatic and looked back at Deng Mu, excitement written on his face.

"Military advisor, you are so awesome. The Gan Xingba you recommended is indeed a good water fighter!"

"Just now he was being beaten and suppressed, but in the blink of an eye, before I could see clearly, he had defeated Cai Mao?"

Zhang Fei shouted excitedly at Deng Mu. At this time, he was so impressed that he fell to the ground.

Deng Mu smiled lightly and said:

"Haven't you noticed it yet? Gan Xingba used the tactic of catching the thief first and the king first."

"The enemy is strong and we are weak. In a head-on confrontation, our army has no chance of winning."

"Only by winning by surprise, capturing the enemy's flagship and Cai Mao in one fell swoop, can the outcome be decided in one battle."

"This was Gan Xingba's motive for deliberately showing weakness earlier."

After hearing Deng Mu's review, everyone suddenly realized and understood the reason for winning this battle.

Liu Bei stroked his short beard and looked at the Han River with gratified eyes, looking at the"Gan" flag.

"The military advisor is truly the reincarnation of Bole, and the people he recommends are all pillars of talent!"

"With water warfare generals like Xingba, I have nothing to fear even if Sun Ce enters the situation..."

South Bank.

There was deathly silence at this time.

Liu Biao and his 20,000 soldiers witnessedThe entire water battle process.

They also changed from cheering and excited to stunned, frightened and confused.

At this moment, Liu Biao was frozen on his horse, his old face was blank and stunned, as if he had seen the most incredible scene in the world.

"how so?"

"Cai Hao actually lost to the Jinfan thief?"

"How is this possible, how is this possible…"
