Liu Bei's advantage is that he can run and is eager to learn.

Needless to say, if you can run, you can run from Youzhou to Yanzhou, Yanzhou to Yuzhou, Yuzhou to Jingzhou, and now running from Jingzhou to Yangzhou, which can be regarded as the perfect use of the advantages of your ancestor Liu Bang. Seeing that the situation is not good, first Running is the best.

Even Cao Cao's tens of thousands of cavalry could not catch up with him.

So easy to learn!

Any new weapons developed by the Jingguo, as long as they can be imitated and learned, they should be learned with no ambiguity and humility. In addition to artillery and firearms that cannot be imitated, many Kecheng heavy crossbows have also been imitated, as well as various advanced equipment on the ship. Create and learn everything.

This racket was learned from the Nanyang Navy.

The battle between Huang Zhong and Tai Shici was in full swing, and they were about to prepare for hundreds of rounds of fighting. When they heard the sound of gold from behind, they broke away from the battle without hesitation, returned to the grasshopper boat, calmed down and shouted: "Today's battle was fun, but it's a pity that we can't Have fun. If there is still a future, let’s fight again!” Then he ordered the ship’s sergeant: “Return to the warship!”

Taishi Ci watched Huang Zhong leave, looked up at the tall warships of the Chu army, and couldn't help but feel a twitch in his heart.

The brutal battle has just begun.

He waved his hand and shouted: "The whole army listens to the order, capture the Chu army's main warship and attack!"

As the order was issued, the Wu army surrounded on all sides began to launch an attack. Countless arrows with ropes in their tails were shot at the warships above.

The wooden warship was shot through by powerful arrows, and the hull was firmly held. The Wu soldiers below quickly climbed towards the ship under the cover of arrows. This was more difficult than siege, but facing the tall warship, Wu Jun had no choice but to Don't use such tactics.

After Liu Feng waited for Huang Zhong to enter the hull, he looked at the Wu army swarming below to attack, and sneered at the corner of his mouth: "The mantis arm is used as a chariot, let them taste the power of my racket, and order the army to release the racket!"

Eight tall and thick wooden poles were erected on both sides of the tall wooden boat. The wooden poles were equipped with ropes. The ropes were slowly tightened. A wooden pole was pulled up below, with a huge racket at the end of the wooden pole. It resembles the fly swatter of later generations.

When Taishi Ci saw the wooden pole rising from the Chu army's ship, he felt chilled in his heart.

He has never eaten pork but has seen pigs running. He has heard of the name of the racket pole. It was first used by the Jing army on the warships in water battles. He did not expect that the Chu army learned and used it so quickly.

Being condescending, the power of the racket will be greatly increased, which will cause fatal damage to the Wu army below. If you want to capture the battleship, it will be increased several times, and the casualties will also be increased several times accordingly.

Now that things have come to a point, we have to fight.

Taishi Ci's voice was fierce: "Send my order to the general, and the first to board the ship will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold. All the officers and men will move forward and capture the warship!"

Under the huge temptation, Wu Jun attacked the city more bravely.

Liu Feng sneered: "You are really looking for death. Put down the racket and shoot these ignorant Wu Jun to death!"

"Bang! Kah! Bang!"

As the racket stick crashed down, making a dull noise, the fragile Wu Jun warship below was smashed into pieces. Wu Jun on the boat was either killed or overturned into the water. Sixteen racket sticks on the left and right were knocked down at the same time. Seven or eight Wu army warships were destroyed.

In order to ensure that Wu's soldiers were not timid in fighting, Tai Shici personally stepped forward to supervise the battle.

Sergeant Wu climbed up even more desperately, because there was no way to survive under the racket pole. Only by pressing forward could he gain a chance of survival and possibly get huge rewards.

As a result, the entire battlefield became the most brutal here.

The chain-link warships in front turned with difficulty, and the hulls were connected together. They cooperated with each other to surround the Wu army and slowly approached, cutting off their retreat.

The battle lasted from Mao hour to Chen hour.

For an entire hour, the main warship was not breached, and the chain warships behind it surrounded them, forcing the Wu army to resort to guerrilla tactics and setting fire to the ship. Wu Jun's ships were small, flexible, and carried a lot of fire oil. Several warships caught fire under Wu Jun's uninterrupted attacks. When the fire started, the entire warship caught fire, and many Chu troops were burned to the point of diving. Shot dead by Wu Jun.

But overall, the casualties of the Wu army were much greater than those of the Chu army.

Out of more than 300 warships, only about 100 are left, and they are still surrounded by the Chu army's chain warships. If the battle continues like this, it will be very bad.

"Send orders to the left and right warships with iron cables to block the Wu army's retreat!" Liu Feng wanted to annihilate Taishi Ci here, but was afraid that he would escape, so he ordered: "Not a single soldier of the Wu army is allowed to escape from this place. All warships are ready to launch - Kecheng heavy crossbow!"

"Here!"

The captains on the left and right received the order and looked at Huang Zhong.

After all, Huang Zhong is the commander-in-chief of the school.

Huang Zhong on the side heard that the Kecheng heavy crossbow was about to be used, and he was silent in his heart, thinking that Tai Shici might be doomed.

Although he likes Taishi Ci very much, they are in different camps. He is a loyal person and knows that one minister should not serve two masters. He also wants to repay Liu Bei's kindness to him. Only by killing Taishi Ci can he prove it. my ability.

Then he nodded: "According to what the young master said, prepare to launch the city-defeating heavy crossbow, and be sure to annihilate the Wu army."

The two captains then went down to deliver the order.

Liu Feng saw Huang Zhong's subtle thoughts and said with a smile: "Old General Huang, I also saw the battle just now. Tai Shici is very capable, but he has a love for talents?"

Huang Zhong smiled bitterly: "Tai Shi Ci is very loyal to the state of Wu. Although I love talents, I don't appreciate it. The camps are different. Don't blame me for being ruthless."

Liu Feng nodded: "To be on par with the old general, Tai Shi Ci's ability is quite good, but it's a pity... that he can't be used by my great Chu."

Each warship of the Chu army was equipped with three Kecheng heavy crossbows, two at the bow and one at the stern. At this moment, all the warships of the Chu army aimed their bows at the Wu army below, and the Kecheng heavy crossbow slowly emerged, revealing its chilling body.

With the assistance of the Kecheng heavy crossbow provided by Jingguo, the Wu army knew the power of the Kecheng heavy crossbow. When they saw the Kecheng heavy crossbow on the Chu army ship, they all took a breath.

Everyone realizes a terrifying fact in their hearts.

It's over.

In front of the Kecheng Heavy Crossbow at close range, everyone is equal, and no one can escape the terrifying power of the Kecheng Heavy Crossbow.

Taishi Ci finally showed a look of despair in his eyes.

At the beginning of the war, he expected that the Chu army would have heavy crossbows to defeat the city, but he did not expect that there would be such a large number. Each warship had three heavy crossbows to defeat the city, which was a bit generous.

You know, after they purchased Jingguo's Kecheng Heavy Crossbow, they wanted to copy it. Unexpectedly, the core components were locked by Huang Yueying with an exquisite Luban lock. If they were forcibly opened, the structure inside would be damaged, so they wanted to To imitate the Kecheng heavy crossbow, the core components have to be purchased from Jingguo at a high price.

This was also the reason why Zhang Xiu dared to buy them the Kecheng heavy crossbow.
