"oh!"
Seeing the person who came, Yang Wen responded, "General Song Yi, this mission to bomb the Jingnan Water Village was assigned to me by Master Qi. Isn't it my final decision?"
and! To be honest, Yang Wen was still worried about Song Yi's safety. after all! In these three days, he had to attack for more than 200 miles, but he was still afraid that Song Yi would not be able to keep an eye on him. Besides! Song Yi is still the Marquis of Pingyang. Even with this status, if something goes wrong, he can't afford it?
snort?
"Yang Wen, you fucking bitch, are you looking down on me? When I made a great name for myself in the northern expedition against the Huns, you were still a junior commander under Yu Shuai!" Song Yi didn't show off, he was just like this He deliberately angered Yang Wen to achieve his own goals.
Of course, no one knows about Song Yi's reputation. In addition to his admiration for Yu Haoming and his own General Qi, Yang Wen also admires Song Yi who is in the same camp as himself.
"Since General Song Yi has said so, the general has nothing to say."
"General Song Yi and I will take down Jingnan Water Village together!" Yang Wen said.
Um!
Song Yi nodded slightly with satisfaction. Since he surrendered to the King of Qin, Song Yi has always wanted to establish meritorious service under the King of Qin, but he has never had the chance, but now! The crusade against Jingzhou has officially begun, and there are many places to fight.
And he can also show off his military talents here to repay Dongfang Yu for his kindness.
Yang Wen and Song Yi set off with 30,000 troops. They marched more than 200 miles in three days. For the Qin army, it was just a common occurrence.
Wang Rulong also followed Qi Lanyin's instructions and set up defenses on the river bank. Ten thousand naval troops were stationed at the ship's branch, and the remaining ten thousand were used to lay traps on the road where Dongfang Jie was most likely to lead his army to return for reinforcements.
At this time, the Jingzhou Navy and the Qin Navy were fighting fiercely. In a head-on conflict, the Jingzhou Navy was no match for the Qin Navy and suffered heavy losses.
"General Xu Qing, we can't fight anymore. If we continue to fight like this, our army will most likely face the risk of being annihilated." Luo Hao said.
Next to their warships, the Qin Navy, cruisers, and medium-sized warships were passing through each other towards the Jingzhou Navy.
Under maneuverability and fierce artillery fire, the Jingzhou Navy lost three main ships, more than 20 medium-sized warships, and countless small warships.
As for the anti-Guan Qin navy, except for the main ship being bombarded, there were basically no losses. Only six medium-sized warships were lost, and the battle damage of the cruiser was unclear.
The battle loss ratio was too high, and the Jingzhou navy, which suffered a loss, could not defeat Qin in such an encounter.
"Let the Chinese main ship cover the retreat alternately."
"Set off the flare and retreat."
call out!
As soon as the order was given, a signal flare flew into the sky on Xu Qing's main ship, giving the order to retreat.
Seeing the retreating signal flares, the Jingzhou Navy, as if relieved, immediately changed course and withdrew from the water under alternate cover.
"Haha! It's so easy to run away there!" Yu Haoming thought, "Send a signal flare to General Qi and ask him to move the left fleet inward and directly adjust the artillery bombardment."
"promise!"
call out!
Qi Lanyin was on the deck, preparing to launch a series of attacks on the Jingzhou Navy.
After receiving Yu Haoming's order, Qi Lanyin no longer hesitated and quickly turned the warship sideways.
boom! boom! boom!
There was a burst of gunfire, and shells flew out one after another. The two miles of artillery cover instantly stunned the Jingzhou Navy. What kind of cannon is this? Its range is more than five hundred meters longer than their cannon!
The battle lasted from five o'clock in the morning to around ten o'clock in the morning. The five-hour fierce battle came to an end with the victory of the Daqin Navy.
certainly! Under normal circumstances, what Yu Haoming and Qi Lanyin think of is to pursue victory! But at present, it seems impossible to target the Jingzhou Navy.
Not far away is Wangchuan, the second fort in the Jingzhou River Basin. If the Qin navy breaks in rashly, it is very likely to be violently bombarded.
"The army stopped, and the soldiers immediately cleared the residue and replenished their physical strength."
"Let General Qi come to my main ship to discuss the next step, a beach landing battle against Wangchuan Fort." Yu Haoming said.
At this time, Xu Qing and Luo Hao, who were lucky enough to retreat, finally couldn't help but feel relieved when they looked at the Qin navy that was not pursuing them.
"In today's encounter, not only was Qin's navy powerful, but their warships were much more powerful than ours in Jingzhou."
"Whether it is an encounter or not, if we fight head-on next time, our army will still suffer heavy losses due to the difference in weapons." Xu Qing looked worried.
In this battle, he destroyed more than one hundred battleships, almost half of all battleships. As for Qin, it lost dozens of ships, and the battle losses were huge.
and! This does not include the main fleet that escorts the transport ships.
"If we can't win a water war, Jingzhou will be defeated sooner or later! It's better to send out the trump cards of Jingnan Water Village. Although there are only two ships, their huge bodies are not inferior to Qin's main ships."
"The only difference is that it has one less row of guns than the Qin's main ship!" Luo Hao said angrily.
The two of them have fought more than ten or twenty water battles, large and small, but this is the first time in their lives that they have suffered such losses in a water battle.
"No...no!"
"Those two ships are the king's trump cards. You must ask for your permission before you can leave the harbor to fight. In addition, our large main ships have extremely poor performance compared with Qin's large main ships."
"Both in terms of speed and bulkiness, it will only become a burden to the ship. It must not be allowed to leave the port unless it is absolutely necessary. But it can be prepared for battle." Xu Qing said.
The two made up their minds and prepared to meet up with Wangchuan Navy.
When the two armies met, there were still 230 large and small warships. The existence of the Jingzhou Navy was countless times longer than the time of the Qin Kingdom's new navy.
Naturally, there is nothing to say about its background.
Suddenly! Li Jing's three-pronged army had already advanced into the four counties of Jingzhou, and the next day they captured the three counties of Lingling, mainly in the four counties of Jingzhou that had no main support. Except for two thousand county soldiers, almost no main force in Jingzhou was seen. The shadow of the army.
The general stationed north of Jingzhou should have an army of 50,000, but now! It is almost divided into two parts, which! Thirty thousand troops retreated into Nanxia County. Another 20,000 troops were stationed at the Yuejing border.
certainly! Its general Zhou Zhaojian's army of 100,000 troops was stationed at the border of Yue and Jing with the help of the governor Xiao Huangqi.
It seemed that he was on guard against Li Jing's army coming from the west, but before Li Jing's army came, it was almost within easy reach to capture the four counties of Jingzhou, but Xiao Huangqi seemed not to do so.
