When Wu Cheng saw the Mengchong Battleship, which was about twenty feet tall and thirty feet long, approaching him from afar, his face changed abruptly. He then shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Quick, quick, retreat! Immediately turn the ship around and return to the shore!”
As the Commander-in-Chief of a prefecture, his position was only below that of the Yanzhou governor, Liu Dai. It should be said that he held the highest position among the generals of Yanzhou.
Because the current Han Dynasty hadn't adopted the state animal husbandry system, the highest military officer in a state was the Sima.
Unlike later, when the Prefecture Overseer system was adopted, the status of the Sima plummeted and was not even as famous as some random generals.
As the commander of a province, Wu Cheng was actually quite strong. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been ranked first among the millions of people.
However, his opponent was Liu Yu!
Not to mention, for Wu Cheng, the government army had always looked down on bandits since ancient times. This was an obsession in his heart that could not be easily changed.
Thus, when he thought that the Liangshan army could not withstand a single blow, he encountered the first and last defeat in his life.
……
"Brothers, my navy used to be just a porter for the cavalry unit, but now that my brother has given the order, today is the day my navy becomes famous!”
"All soldiers, listen up! Once Mengchong is within a hundred steps of the enemy, fire your arrows! Let them witness the power of our Liangshan army!”
After Li Jun finished speaking, the navy soldiers shouted and began to draw their bows and shoot at the government troops.
After three rounds of volleys, more than four thousand people shot out more than ten thousand arrows, taking away nearly a thousand soldiers.
Then, there was the sound of arrows and water falling into the water.
Then, the two sides engaged in close combat. When the Liangshan navy had a huge advantage, they were naturally unusually brave and took the lead.
As for the government troops, because their morale had already dropped and their formation was in disarray, they naturally had no will to fight.
Moreover, Wu Cheng and the others were government troops, but their warships were just fishing boats. Each ship could only accommodate a dozen people.
On the contrary, Liu Yu and his men were actually riding on Mengchong Battleships that were about twenty feet tall and thirty feet long. The armaments of these two sides were completely out of proportion.
From this point of view, it was as if the people of Liangshan were the government troops, while they were the bandits.
Under such circumstances, what was the use of having so many soldiers?
After a round of fighting, because the Liang Mountain navy did not have many people, there were still more than a hundred official warships that successfully escaped and began to head towards the Golden Sand Beach.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Shun shouted at Li Jun after killing an officer with a slash of his saber.
"Brother Li Jun, are we going to let Wu Cheng, that dog official, run away?”
In his words, Zhang Shun was even more unwilling. After all, his navy had paid a considerable price in this battle. At least hundreds of his brothers had sunk to the bottom of the river forever.
After hearing Zhang Shun's words, Li Jun shook his head and said.
"My troll army has already shown big brother our strength. Let's leave the rest to the cavalry army!”
After Li Jun finished speaking, he suddenly pounced and jumped to Zhang Shun's side. The saber in his hand suddenly slashed down.
Then, under Zhang Shun's astonished expression, Li Jun's knife tore open a soldier's chest.
"The war isn't over yet, what are you daydreaming about?”
……
On the other side, Wu Cheng, Chen Ming, and the others finally arrived at the shore after sailing for an hour with five thousand soldiers.
"Huhu, huhu, quickly take the soldiers and leave this place. This defeat was because I underestimated my enemy. We must bring the last five thousand brothers back to Yanzhou!”
As Wu Cheng shouted, Chen Ming felt a great sorrow in his heart. He knew that Wu Cheng might be prepared to die here this time!
"General, victory and defeat are common in military strategists. If you want to defeat Liangshan, it must be you!”
Just as the two of them were about to part ways, the rumbling of hooves came from not far away, causing Wu Cheng and Chen Ming's expressions to change.
Then, a middle-aged battle general holding two whips laughed loudly.
"Big brother is right. You will return the way you came and prepare to escape back to Yanzhou. Unfortunately, I can't let you do as you wish this time.”
After saying this, Huyan Zhuo raised his two whips high up in the air. A row of horses charged out from behind him, charging straight towards the remaining 5,000 soldiers.
Behind him, hundreds of heavily armored cavalrymen suddenly charged out. Between the horses, there were even cavalrymen holding huge iron chains that suddenly swept across.
Under the rumbling sounds of the hooves, the soldiers blocking the chain horses were all smashed into pieces by the terrifying impact of the horses.
It was also this time that the first batch of chained horses trained by Huyan Zhuo revealed a terrifying killing intent!
How could a human body withstand the power of a group of horses, let alone the terrifying force brought about by hundreds of warhorses charging at the same time!
Thus, after the chain horse charged, it left behind a mess!
