Under the cover of the night, after the Cao Wei Navy, Jingzhou, and Dongwu Navy came to a very close distance, the Jingzhou Dongwu Navy reacted!
However, it is already too late for Jingzhou and Soochow in such a situation.
After Cao Jun approached, the sky was already covered with arrows in an instant.
In the dark night that could not be seen clearly, there were arrows all over the sky. This situation was fatal to their Jingzhou and Soochow navy.
Not only the arrows all over the sky, but also Cao Wei's very powerful burning barrels and thunderbolt barrels were all poured into Jingzhou, where the Soochow Navy is located.
Of course, this is the first contact and attack between the Cao Wei Navy and the Jingzhou and Soochow Navy. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for the Cao Wei Navy to put all the most advanced warships into it. That would be a little too reckless.
Under Zhuge Liang's arrangement, the Cao Wei navy first sent out the weakest traditional warship among the navy.
Because it is the weakest traditional warship, the attack just now was not the most violent.
Although it is not the most violent attack, but in such a situation, this method is the safest method!
Under such circumstances, it is natural to be able to spy on the enemy's reality, which is naturally necessary for the smooth progress of the subsequent battle.
At this time, Zhou Yu learned his lesson. Under his Zhou Yu's order, the distribution of Soochow navy in Jingzhou is very sparse.
Under such circumstances, whether it is the arrows of the Cao Wei navy, or the weapons such as the burning barrel and the thunderbolt barrel, the actual effect and the hit rate are all very low.
...
Chapter 564
This situation is not the worst. The worst thing is that under the influence of Zhou Yu, after the Jingzhou and Soochow naval forces have been arranged, all the naval forces have been made into one that can shrink, and the Cao Wei naval forces can be reduced. Surrounded by large pockets.
Under such circumstances, if the Cao Wei navy dared to break in, what awaited them was the siege that could directly surround them until they were wiped out!
Zhou Yu's calculations are well done, and the current situation is not easy for Cao Wei Navy.
After Zhou Yu learned about the battle situation that day, he then ordered directly, "All officers and men listen to my order. The first fire attack ship is dispatched now, targeting the Cao Wei navy!"
After Zhou Yu gave the order, golden gongs resounded throughout Jingzhou and among Soochow's troops.
Come to think of it, this situation is the sound of the horns of Jingzhou and Soochow.
With the sound of the golden gong, among the Jingzhou and Soochow navy, fire boats dragged one after another, and rushed towards the Caowei navy.
Under such circumstances, the ships of their Jingzhou and Soochow Navy ships are very fast, and they can also adjust their direction. Light the fireboat among them.
As long as one of the fire boats is ignited, all the remaining ones will be ignited like fuel.
As for the Jingzhou and Soochow navy, after igniting the fire boat, they would quickly evacuate to another ship that was towed and came together.
After such a situation, the two ships will be disconnected. After the disconnection, the two ships will have no traction that can be connected and can successfully escape.
After escaping from danger, the Jingzhou and Soochow navy were able to prepare for the attack after the fire attack on the remaining ships.
After Zhou Yu reacted that day, Zhuge Liang had a countermeasure for this situation.
When those fire boats were heading towards Cao Wei's navy, Zhuge Liang then used the radio to give orders.
"Local fireships are coming, pay attention to protection, prepare artillery, and strike by yourself!"
Zhuge Liang gave an order to the radio.
The first ship rushed to receive such an order quickly, and then responded immediately.
What I have to say is that the fire attack used by Jingzhou and Soochow is indeed a bit shocking, and it has a sharp feeling.
However, for such a situation, Zhuge Liang had already thought of it in his heart, not only thought of it, but also made preparations for defense.
Just now, those weakest ships were not just for testing. Among the flying barrels dropped just now, there were quite a few explosive barrels.
In front of the very powerful explosive barrels, the fire boats of the Jingzhou and Soochow Navy were quickly blown up, and several ships were overturned.
When the explosive barrel showed its supernatural power, the Holy King in Cao Wei's navy was not idle at this time.
Under the leadership of the Holy King, some subordinate Mengchong warships also attacked.
Such a battle is truly shocking.
On the Holy King and the Mengchong battleship, all the artillery were aimed at the fireboat that was rushing towards them.
Such a situation is very fatal to Jingzhou and the Soochow Navy.
Attack yourself!
After aiming, the artillery one by one was like the roar of a wild beast. With roars, the shells rushed towards the enemy one by one!
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Such a powerful power, such a deafening sound, all these make people's heart tremble.
Those hard and powerful cannonballs were shot out. In this case, if the ship is hit, no matter what kind of ship or what kind of defense it is, it will be ruthlessly pierced.
In front of this artillery, the ships of the Jingzhou and Soochow navy were all smashed to pieces like paper.
Cao Wei was very well prepared this time.
The same is true for the preparation of ammunition for this artillery.
In order to be able to fight such a big battle well, the factories in Xudu worked overtime overnight, and it can be said that a lot of shells were produced in a hurry.
On average, the five Holy King ships were equipped with about [-] cannons on each ship, and about three or four cannons were equipped on the Na Mengchong battleship.
In other words, the Cao Wei navy troops as a whole have about [-] artillery pieces!
About three hundred artillery pieces!
Such a situation is nothing to Cao Wei, but to the Jingzhou and Soochow Navy troops, such a situation is a fatal existence!
Zhou Yu learned what kind of weapon the cannon was from Lu Su's mouth, but in Zhou Yu's cognition, he could only think of the cannon as a weapon similar to a catapult.
What Zhou Yu didn't expect was that the accuracy of this artillery can be said to be several times more accurate than that of the catapult!
Compared with artillery, weapons like catapults are hardly weapons.
Because the accuracy of a weapon like a catapult is really bad.
It is not suitable for that kind of encounter at all, and it is more suitable for a confrontational battle.
It's not because of anything else, it's because the accuracy of the catapult is really too bad.
After throwing the stone, whether it hits the target or not depends on fate and fate.
