Just when Chen Zhou was thinking about whether to save Huang Zu, Sun Quan, on the advice of Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao and others, launched an attack on Huang Zu in Jiangxia.
The navy from both sides fought fiercely on the river, and the scene was very spectacular.
Ancient water warfare was actually very simple. In addition to using long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows on the ship for long-distance consumption, warships were used to collide with each other, knocking over and sinking the other side's warships.
When the warships of both sides are close, they can board the ship and fight, fight to the other side's warship, and kill the other side's soldiers.
At the same time, there is another method, which is to dive into the water and use special tools to sink the enemy's warships.
Various water battles started, and it looked really spectacular. The drums were thundering, and water jets were splashing up. The fight was going back and forth, and the fight was evenly divided in an instant.
Chen Zhou was watching the battle from a distance. This was the first time he saw such a battle scene. It was quite novel to the senses, but after seeing it too much, he didn't think much of it. It seemed like an ordinary battle.
Before traveling through time, Chen Zhou had seen various water battle scenes in various film and television works. Compared with the ancient water battles in front of him, the film and television works were much more shocking.
On the contrary, Chen Zhou felt that it was ordinary after seeing it too much.
"The Jiangdong navy is really powerful!"
Cai Mao knew that he could watch a show here, so he came with him.
He knew very well how powerful the Jingzhou Navy was and didn't think it mattered, but the Jiangdong Navy's combat power seemed to be a bit stronger than when Sun Ce was there.
When he fought with Huang Zu, his momentum was frightening and very powerful.
Cai Mao added: "It seems that Sun Bofu is not much worse than his father and brother. He can raise their Jiangdong's strength to a higher level so quickly."
Originally, the troops left by Sun Ce were not weak. If Sun Quan seriously develops them, it is not surprising that they will be stronger than before.
Chen Zhou knew Sun Quan's abilities, which were sometimes strong and sometimes weak. He was good at coordinating the overall situation and maintaining stability. He could perform stably, but if he was allowed to actually lead the troops in war, it would be easy to pull him apart, such as having an extra Sun Shi. Wan’s nickname.
"How far is it that our navy has to catch up with Jiangdong's navy?"
Chen Zhou asked curiously, wanting to know the gap between the two sides.
Cai Mao thought for a while and said in a solemn tone: "It's too far behind. With our current training intensity and shipbuilding speed, it will be difficult to truly fight against the Sun family in the next one or two years." Power."
In other words, it will take another year or two to develop.
It is not easy to make up for the shortcomings of the northerners. If I had known better, I would have developed the navy in advance, so that I would not be in a hurry like now.
"We should try our best to avoid collision with Sun Liu."
Chen Zhou said: "Unless they want to fight with us on land, they are not as strong as us, so we can only avoid their edge."
"Sir is right."
Cai Mao agreed.
Although he wanted to fight back for revenge, Cao Jun's water warfare foundation was not good enough. If he tried to take revenge forcefully, he would easily not even have a chance to take revenge.
We can only wait and keep developing, and sooner or later we will surprise the south.
"We continue to watch the battle."
Chen Zhou said.
By this time, the fight between the two sides was already fierce, and the collision between the warships became more severe. The scene was more intense than before.
It was my first time to watch a real water battle, and it still felt a bit special.
"Send someone down to inquire about the situation. I want to know when Liu Bei's people will sell Huang Zu."
Chen Zhou said again.
Sun Quan had no reason to attack Jiangxia for no reason. His intuition told him that he was sure that Liu Bei would sell Huang Zu and then reach a cooperative relationship with the Sun family. Huang Zu was only a condition for cooperation.
They will eventually make their way to the league.
"yes!"
Cai Mao is responsible for arranging people.
Then, they continued to watch the battle. When the fight was almost done, the momentum on Sun's side weakened a lot and they began to retreat. Sun's warships also retreated one after another, as if they did not dare to fight Huang anymore. Zu beat.
"Fake defeat!"
When Chen Zhou saw this, he understood what Sun was going to do. Even at the beginning, they were evenly matched and the fight was evenly matched. In the blink of an eye, Sun began to retreat and lost momentum.
It was an obvious means of feigning defeat. I wonder if Huang Zu could see it.
However, given Huang Zu's pride, it was normal even if he couldn't see it. After all, Sun Jian was shot and killed by Huang Zu, so he probably didn't take Sun Quan seriously.
In Huang Zu's eyes, Sun Quan was probably just a yellow-haired boy.
"It does seem like a false defeat!"
Cai Mao had a certain understanding of water warfare and could see the problems in it, and continued: "According to Sir's judgment, if Liu Bei really sold Huang Zu, he must want to make the act of selling more real. , will not kill Huang Zu in one battle in order to maintain his own benevolence and righteousness."
Chen Zhou agreed: "That's true. I would like to see what Liu Bei and the others can do. We who rescue Huang Zu must also be prepared."
The outcome of this battle cannot be determined, and the Sun family pretended to be defeated and retreated. Then in the next battle, the Sun family's people will probably lure the enemy deeper. Pretending defeat and showing weakness, then luring the enemy, is the most basic operation.
Cai Mao said with admiration: "Sir, he is on the outside, but he can clearly predict everything in the game. It's amazing!"
Chen Zhou shook his head and said with a smile: "The authorities are confused, but bystanders know clearly. Only we outsiders can see the overall situation clearly. General Cai is ridiculous!"
Cai Mao felt that Chen Zhou was being humble.
After surrendering to Cao Cao for so long, he had already found out everything about Chen Zhou and knew that Chen Zhou was the best counselor around Cao Cao. He could always predict the enemy ahead of others and predict events like a god. These were all basic operations.
Nothing that Chen Zhou predicted would happen.
With such a master in Cao's camp, Cai Mao believed that he was absolutely as safe as Mount Tai. To surrender to Cao was the most correct choice he had ever made.
none of them.
"It seems like it's almost over."
Chen Zhou said again.
Cai Mao continued to look forward and saw Sun's warships officially beginning to retreat. It really seemed to be over.
This battle has almost come to an end.
Chen Zhou said: "Let's prepare ourselves for the next battle. I have a hunch that we won't have to wait too long for the next battle."
Dian Wei scratched his head and said: "Sir, I think fighting on the water is far less enjoyable than fighting on land. If you give me a horse on land, I will dare to rush over and kill Huang Zu. On the water, give me A boat I don’t know how to use yet.”
As soon as these words came out, Chen Zhou and Cai Mao both laughed.
With Dian Wei's strength, he can indeed do this.
This is not bragging.
"We will camp here to rest, and be careful not to let the enemy get close."
Chen Zhou said again.
Cai Mao went to make arrangements immediately.
Looking further towards the river, I saw that the soldiers and horses of both sides were also retreating, and the warships returned to their respective camps to rest.
Each other suffered losses in battle.
However, none of them noticed that Chen Zhou and the others were watching the show now.
At this time, it was getting late and the sun was setting in the west.
After they returned, they each calculated the results of today's battle and analyzed how to fight the next battle.
