Chapter 452 So far there is no Han army on the river
Chapter 452: So far, there are no more Han troops on the river
"General! Oh no, several of our battleships are leaking."
Why on earth do you need to report it!? I didn’t even look at it myself, how could I not see it?
Seeing the power of the Chu army's ballistae, Gan Ning lost his previous arrogance.
This, Nima, is simply irresistible, okay?
One hundred thousand troops and one hundred warships.
This round of salvos reduced the number of six or seven ships.
Who knows how many rounds the Chu Jun can still shoot when he rushes in front of him?
But no matter what, the charge is now ready.
Water stations are not like fighting on land. You can run away immediately when the situation is not right.
Under the huge inertia, if you just want to stop the battleship and then turn around, it will take a lot of time to operate.
If that's the case, I'm afraid I'll have to be a living target for the Chu army.
As a veteran of the navy, why didn't Gan Ning understand this truth?
Retreating is impossible.
Then, the only option left for Gan Ning was to continue charging.
Come to think of it, the power of this ghost thing is so huge, and the time interval between the same shots is so long, I'm afraid its reloading speed is also very slow.
Gan Ning encouraged himself in his heart and made a decision.
"Inform the flag bearer, pass on the order, and continue the charge!
As long as we can rush up to the Chu navy and engage in hand-to-hand combat with them, then there is nothing to fear from these Chu navy!
in addition......
Our flagship, immediately begin to slow down and prepare to turn around."
Although Gan Ning ordered his armored fleet to charge, it did not mean that he himself still had to be at the forefront of the charge.
Just kidding, this ghost doesn't open his eyes. Who knows whether you are the Five Tiger General Gan Ning or an ordinary Jingzhou pawn?
If you fire a shot, even if you don't hit anyone, if the hull of your ship is leaked, it will still be fatal.
This is not on the shore.
You are so brave that you won't be able to use it even if you fall into the water.
You must know that the river mouth where the two armies are currently fighting is more than 600 feet wide, which is a distance of more than 2,000 meters.
It's okay for you to ask Gan Ning to cross, but on this battle formation, do you want to cross? Unless you keep diving underwater, you will be a target.
Therefore, Gan Ning chose the most conservative method.
Let the soldiers under your command charge.
If you can fight hand-to-hand, your flagship will naturally charge forward.
But if the loss is too great, at least there is a chance to escape, right?
Naturally, the Chu army did not know what Gan Ning was thinking. Seeing that the Jingzhou army was still charging after a brief period of confusion, Zhou Tai laughed wildly.
“It’s really a credit to these idiots for coming to our door!
Jiang Qin, tell the kids to keep cumming, I will cum in a way that they will never forget and give them nightmares again and again!"
After many years of commanding naval forces in battle, Zhou Tai discovered for the first time that fighting can be so satisfying.
This is simply more enjoyable than sleeping with a few little girls.
Zhou Tai was not as excited as Jiang Qin. Looking at the Jingzhou Army who had no ability to resist being shot by his own side, Jiang Qin felt as if he was having an orgasm and loudly gave orders to his subordinates with a male duck's voice.
"Did you hear, did you hear what the boss said? Shoot! Keep shooting! Shoot them to death!"
The Jingzhou Army's charge was still continuing. Looking at the Chu Army, which was only a hundred feet away from him, the Jingzhou Army's charge was like an insurmountable chasm.
Unlucky sailors were constantly being pierced by crossbow arrows, and there were bursts of desperate wailing sounds.
Unlucky ships were constantly being pierced by crossbow arrows, and there was an overwhelming sound of leaking water.
As the ships rushing in the front row leaked a lot of water, the Jingzhou Army's charge was gradually disintegrated.
There was no way, too many ships were badly damaged and had no choice but to stop there and wait for the fate of sinking to the bottom of the river.
This made it impossible for the Jingzhou Navy fleet in the rear row to continue moving forward.
Seeing the Jingzhou Navy already trapped in the quagmire, Zhou Tai waved his hand excitedly.
"Send the order! Let the flagman tell all the ships to start accelerating. The target is the Jingzhou Navy. I will wipe them all out here!
Also! Let the ballista ships continue to shoot, don’t stop! If they can’t shoot from the front, let them change the angle and continue to shoot me from the back!”
Because a large number of damaged ships blocked the attack route of the ballistae, Zhou Tai could only order the entire army to charge.
There is no way. Although the ballista is very powerful, it is too real and will only go straight forward.
"Damn it! Send the order, the entire army retreats to the north bank, run as much as you can!"
Seeing the battle situation ahead, Gan Ning already knew that he was completely defeated this time.
Who would have thought that the Chu Army could develop such a perverted game?
Nowadays, of the one hundred thousand Jingzhou navy and white navy warships, it is a great fortune to be able to save even half of them in the end.
Gan Ning knew that after this battle, the Han army had completely lost control of the Yangtze River.
From now on, let alone fighting against the Chu navy, even if we were to defend, we might not be able to sustain it.
But no matter what, Gan Ning had no choice but to choose a strong man to cut off his wrist.
As for why we should retreat to the north shore?
Don't you know that Guan Yu's 300,000 Jingzhou army is currently attacking Shouchun?
By landing here, at least the Han army would occupy the base, and the Jingzhou Navy's chances of escape would be much greater.
Things in this world often go against expectations.
Originally, Gan Ning calculated that at least the Jingzhou Navy would be able to successfully withdraw half of the armored fleet.
But when he saw the Chu army actually launching a charge, he suddenly felt only sorrow in his heart.
Damn it, boy Zhou Tai, don’t let me catch you, otherwise I will kill you alive!
Because of the Chu navy's charge, the Jingzhou navy could only leave more corpses and more destroyed ships on the way back.
After all, it takes time to turn around on a large river.
You have to turn around, but the Jingzhou Navy doesn't have to.
With the power of a great victory, the Chu navy's charge was full of morale, and even the speed of the ships seemed to be a little faster.
They pursued one after another all the way, whether suppressing them with bows and arrows, sometimes directly engaging in hand-to-hand combat, or even constantly bombarding them with ballistae ships from the side.
During the retreat, the Jingzhou Navy once again paid half the price before reaching the shore.
Looking at the Jingzhou navy, which only had less than 30,000 men, and was in such a miserable state, Gan Ning almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Previously, if I could save half of the army, I would have received some harsh criticism from His Majesty.
After all, the sincerity of playing ballistae is something that cannot be resisted by human beings. I think His Majesty will understand him a little bit.
But now, the Jingzhou Navy has almost been beaten and has lost its organization. There are only less than twenty intact warships left, and they are even facing the risk of being destroyed and captured by the Chu army at any time. Most of their armor has been damaged.
When Gan Ning thought of the furious Liu Bei, he felt like he was as big as his head.
