Such a situation really shocked the Sun Liu Lianjun.
However, there is no way around this situation, because the number of people that the two troops can muster is already the largest and most elite.
After all, now Cao Wei has divided his troops into two groups, attacking Nanyang and Jiangdong counties respectively.
For such a situation, Jingzhou and Soochow naturally need to defend in these two places.
If people are not sent to defend, once these two places are defeated, the occupation will also plunge Jingzhou and Soochow into an irreversible battle situation.
The commander was that Zhou Yu, because he knew a lot about Cao Wei's equipment from Lu Su, so now Zhou Yu is also handy in preparing for this week.
Chapter 557 Crazy Plan
However, Zhou Yu's heart was also very flustered this week, because the army in his hands was a little too small now.
This situation is not the worst. The worst thing is that Cao Wei's equipment is also very sophisticated. ,
This makes Jingzhou, which is very backward in its own strength, and the Soochow Alliance have a stronger sense of oppression.
Such a situation is really touching and helpless.
As a commander, Zhou Yu felt extremely helpless in such a situation.
If Zhou Yu is given the same strength, troops, and equipment, Zhou Yu dare not guarantee that he can completely defeat Cao Wei, but at least he can be [-]% sure that he will be invincible!
However, it is impossible for such a situation to arise now. The purpose of doing so now is to carry out the idea of resistance to the end and delay it as much as possible.
After that, Zhou Yu also said to the soldiers in front of him: "There are very powerful weapons in Cao Wei, so what we need to do is not to confront them head-on!"
"Also, in addition to this, we also want to set up the battlefield in the widest and widest place on the river!"
The situation at this time was that Zhou Yu was mobilizing before the battle with the soldiers on the scene.
The reason why he came to such a conclusion was because he, Zhou Yu, was the only one who knew something about the Cao Wei navy.
In addition, he, Zhou Yu, has the information about Lu Su, plus his own experience in confronting Cao Wei Navy, it can be said that Zhou Yu is the only one!
Afterwards, Na Zhou Yu also introduced again: "The weapons of the Cao Wei Navy mainly include two types. The first is the flying barrels used for projectiles. These flying barrels flying in the sky will explode. The iron pieces will injure nearby people, and some will detonate a large area of the ship, and then ignite the entire ship!"
"There is another group of continuous shooting crossbows that operate against people. As far as I know, that crossbow can shoot dozens of arrows in a row, no matter from the range or power. , are stronger than our crossbow bolts, and can cause even stronger pressure!"
Zhou Yu introduced everything he saw when he confronted the Cao Wei navy last time. After telling his experience, everyone who heard it was shocked.
This kind of situation is really shocking, and it feels a kind of suffocation.
Because they have never even heard of it.
This situation is not what shocked them the most, what shocked them most was what Zhou Yu said next.
"In addition to the fire barrel and the crossbow, there is also a very powerful weapon in Cao Wei, the name is artillery!"
"According to the information, we can know that the principle of the artillery is like a trebuchet, but the artillery fires iron bullets, so the overall power is stronger, and the hull cannot withstand the attack!"
"..."
After hearing such words, everyone was dumbfounded.
How have they seen or heard of such a situation?
This Cao Wei's weapons are so powerful, how can he fight?
Not enough, there is a saying that is very good, there are policies above, and countermeasures below!
Although Cao Wei's firepower was very fierce, it was not that Zhou Yu had no way to deal with it.
After Zhou Yu combined this situation, he also thought of a lot of native methods, and among those native methods, he also chose some methods that can alleviate the degree of damage caused.
Before the station, he, Zhou Yu, had all the soldiers smear yellow mud on the hull of the ship one by one. The purpose of this was to isolate the fire caused by the explosion!
After the loess mud formed a fire barrier, the ship was able to prevent the spread of the fire to a large extent.
Later, Zhou Yu even ordered people to set up bunkers on the hulls of each ship, in order to prevent the arrows from harming the soldiers during the battle.
The bunker can block the arrows very well, and when the ships get close, they can all counterattack.
It's not just about losing.
Even the choice of the location of the battlefield is very particular.
After the fiasco last time, Zhou Yu was very clear in his heart, and even realized a problem.
Although Cao Wei's weapon is very terrifying, its accuracy is very low.
In the last battle, Zhou Yu discovered that out of the ten explosive barrels flying out, only two or three could hit the ship, or land near the ship!
This situation was seen by Na Zhouyu.
The reason for this situation is that Zhou Yu had a large number of ships and the river was relatively narrow. Under such circumstances, Cao Wei could cause some damage if he attacked casually.
It is because the density of ships is too concentrated.
In his view, Zhou Yu, as long as the density is reduced, the hit rate of Cao Wei's weapons will definitely be reduced a lot!
Not to mention being able to hit three times in a row out of ten times, by that time Cao Wei was already burning high if he could hit once.
Naturally, such a situation cannot happen all the time!
Although Cao Wei's weapons are very powerful and powerful, but if they can't hit people, what's the use of a powerful weapon?
In addition, it is impossible to carry a lot of equipment on the ship, so with consumption, this situation will be reduced a lot.
At that time, wouldn't it be much easier for the two naval forces of Jingzhou and Soochow to fight back?
And this is why Zhou Yu chose to fight on a relatively open river.
Although such a situation has been planned in great detail, Zhou Yu is very clear in his heart that such a situation is far from enough.
With only these methods, it will not cause serious damage to the powerful Cao Wei, and it is even impossible to defeat Cao Jun.
Under such circumstances, Zhou Yu had to come up with a more advantageous offensive strategy.
Faced with such a powerful enemy, why choose to attack?
The reason why he chose to attack was because Zhou Yu wanted to repay him with the same way in his heart!
Isn't Cao Wei good at playing with explosives and fire?
Simply put, Zhou Yu directly used the method of fire attack to carry out a thorough counterattack.
