Sanjiangkou.
A thin layer of mist covered the surface of the river. A few warships gradually emerged from the mist. At first, only a few silhouettes could be seen, but soon, the full appearance of the warships appeared in everyone's eyes.
These battleships were neatly arranged in a formation. There were a few large flags on the battleships, and a large word was clearly written on the flag,"Wu".
At this moment, Xiahou Dun stood at the bow of the ship, his eyes narrowed as he looked at the approaching warship bearing the flag of Marquis Wu. He waved the feather fan in his hand.
Ever since he became the military counselor, the feather fan in his hand had become Xiahou Dun's standard when he was fighting.
Xiahou Dun raised the feather fan in his hand and pointed at the warship in the distance." This is the River East Navy?"”
"Chancellor, yes!"
The one who spoke was Cai Mao, the Jingzhou general. Other than Cai Mao, Zhang Yun and the others were also standing behind Xiahou Dun.
Xiahou Dun's expression was grim. To be honest, he had never seen many warships before, and this was the first time he had seen Marquis Wu's warships.
"Lord Chancellor, seeing that the River East navy is coming, how should we arrange our troops for this battle?”
In a battle on water, the formation of troops was extremely important. It was often the key to victory or defeat in a battle.
However, it was obvious that Xiahou Dun did not understand…
He had underestimated the difficulty of fighting on the water.
If it was a land battle, even if he didn't know anything, he could just charge forward with his reckless strength.
However, Xiahou Dun was stunned when he saw the few warships that looked like huge objects.
The feather fan in Xiahou Dun's hand shook faster and faster, but there was still no idea in his mind.
"If only benefactor was here…"
Xiahou Dun thought to himself.
Over the past few days, under Lu Yu's command, he had obtained a few great merits in succession. He had become somewhat dependent on Lu Yu.
However, Lu Yu was probably still 'recuperating' in the tent, right?
Left with no choice, Xiahou Dun could only turn around and look at Cai Mao behind him. When Cai Mao was under Liu Biao, he was Liu Biao's military advisor, so he should have some ideas.
He asked," What should we do according to De Gui's intentions?”
De Gui was Cai Mao's surname.
Xiahou Dun still had a good impression of Cai Mao.
Of course, it was not because Cai Mao had ordered him to drink, but because Xiahou Dun knew that it would not be long before Cai Mao became his benefactor's uncle.
They could be considered family!
Cai Mao looked at the warships that were approaching in an orderly manner from afar and came forward. He narrowed his eyes and said," Lord Chancellor, the enemy's warships are coming at us ferociously and have set up a great formation. We should also arrange our battle formation properly and not let the enemy's warships charge into our formation. Otherwise, the Jiangdong navy will kill our soldiers like cutting melons and vegetables!”
Xiahou Dun nodded slightly. Cai Mao was right.
Battles on water were often far away, and at this time, they only needed to shoot arrows. They were fighting for resources.
However, once the formation was broken, the enemy would board the ship and fight. The northern soldiers were not used to warships and would be pressed to the ground by the navy.
"Pass down my order. All ships, get into formation and fight the enemy!”
Xiahou Dun said loudly. Then, his order was passed down. At the same time, the warships began to turn around and get into formation.
However, just as the warship started moving, the hull of the ship shook violently.
Xiahou Dun waved his feather fan in one hand. He did not expect such a problem to occur. He staggered and almost fell into the river from the bow.
Cai Mao hurriedly supported Xiahou Dun and asked hurriedly," Chancellor, are you alright?”
Xiahou Dun shook his head vigorously. He was originally fine when the boat was not moving, but when the boat moved and shook, he actually felt a sour water churning in his stomach, as if it was churning the sea.
"Ugh!"
After enduring for a long time, Xiahou Dun could not hold it in anymore and spat it out.
His eyes were dizzy and the world was spinning. He could not even stand steadily.
Xiahou Dun shook his head vigorously, but there was no sign of relief. As the warship sailed, the feeling became stronger and stronger.
In the end, Xiahou Dun couldn't help but vomit non-stop!
Not only Xiahou Dun, but many of the soldiers on the warship were the same!
These soldiers were all soldiers from the north.
Before the battle even started, half of them had already lost their fighting spirit.
On the warship, the sound of vomiting could be heard.
At this moment, the Jiangdong Navy had already arrived.
Seeing the Cao army like this, a general on the warship had a smile on his face as he sat on the bow of the ship and shouted.
"I am Gan Ning. Who dares to fight me?”
This was provocation!
However, Xiahou Dun had no choice in the face of Gan Ning's provocation. Most of them were vomiting and couldn't even stand up straight. How could they have the strength to fight?
Cai Mao stood up and waved his hand, signaling his younger brother Cai Xun to fight.
Cai Xun nodded and shouted," I'll fight!”
At the bow of the ship, Gan Ning's lips curled into a smile as he nocked an arrow. Whoosh!
The arrow pierced through the air and pierced Cai Xun's chest.
Cai Xun fell down in a daze.
"Trash!"
Gan Ning spat out the grass in his mouth and waved his hand. Thousands of arrows rained down from the warship, blotting out the sun.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The soldiers from the north couldn't even stand steadily on the warship, and they couldn't escape the rain of arrows.
Countless people fell to the ground.
Wails sounded everywhere.
Gan Ning was overjoyed.
After reporting this news to Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu was overjoyed and ordered the three warships to charge forward and break up the Cao army formation.
After breaking the formation, the River East navy boarded the Cao army's warship and began to slaughter the soldiers one by one with their sabers.
Normally, the northerners who were good at fighting on land would be able to hold them off for a while. However, they were on a ship now. If the warship swayed slightly, the northerners would not be able to stand still.
For a time, the warship was littered with corpses.
Countless casualties.
The entire river was dyed red!
Zhou Yu looked at the corpses and smiled.
In this battle, the Cao army was defeated!
