Chapter 76 Reinforcement Arrives Again

()ps: I sincerely thank Beast Blood Sky for your monthly vote~~~~

Sure enough, as everyone expected, the more than one hundred warships that came to Jingkou for reinforcements only had some effect when they first joined the battle. Not even half an hour later, they were already in a state of exhaustion.

Jie Zhao originally had about 300 fighting ships. After losing more than 50 ships, there are still more than 200 ships. The Haimen navy's ships of more than 200 years old have been damaged in half. In addition to the hundreds of ships in Jingkou,

In terms of numbers, they are still inferior to the Jie Zhao naval forces, not to mention that there are also a considerable number of slugs mixed into them.

To deal with the ships, the Jie Zhao Navy relied on the strength of the ships and no longer used shooting poles, but directly collided with them. Although the ships were flexible, their performance was greatly restricted in the narrow waters. A considerable part of them were

Being knocked apart and sunk alive.

As reinforcements, the Jingkou Navy had no relatives and no city to protect. Their fighting spirit was not as good as that of the Haimen Navy. When they saw that the Jie Zhao Navy was so fierce, their morale plummeted. If it were not for the river,

If there is no way to turn around and escape, it is very likely that everything will disappear as soon as the battle begins.

Under the illumination of the setting sun, the dark red color of the river surface was rendered into a bright red color. Crossbow arrows were still flying in the sky, and the deafening shouts of killing, desperate screams before death, and heavy objects falling were still heard in the ears.

The splashing sound made by entering the water, the river surface is still

However, there were corpses, sawdust and various debris floating on the river, and the waves stirred up by the passing ships washed away towards the sea downstream. One after another whirlpools suddenly appeared and disappeared suddenly on the river surface. Each vortex represented a ship.

The fighting ship was destroyed and sank to the bottom of the river.

Unknowingly, an hour had passed since the Jingkou Navy came to the rescue. In this hour, half of the Jingkou Navy’s warships were damaged! However, the Haimen Navy only sank about twenty ships. Invisibly, the Jingkou Army played a vital role.

The role of the scapegoat can't be helped. It's easy to rush in from the river, but it's difficult to get out. Moreover, they have already been frightened by the bravery of the Jiehu Navy. An army that has lost morale. The consequences can be imagined.

As for the Jie Zhao Navy, they only lost less than twenty ships. The gap in strength is getting wider and wider. The current situation is extremely bad. It is very likely that this mixed fleet will face the annihilation of the whole army before it gets dark.

Danger.

"Father, we have defeated the Jin navy. Should we attack Haimen overnight, or should we let the soldiers take a breather and fight again tomorrow?" Han Fu had a 100% chance of winning and couldn't help but turn around and ask.

Without waiting for Han Yong to reply, the Jie general shouted: "Isn't this nonsense? Of course we have to attack all night! Otherwise it will be delayed until daytime. What will happen if all the people in Haimen run away at night? We didn't bring horses with us this time.

Where to chase them?"

"Well," Han Fu frowned and said hesitantly, "But a few dozen miles upstream is the Wujun Water Village. If the soldiers cannot get a rest and are attacked from behind by him when attacking Haimen, what should they do?"

"Humph!" General Jie snorted coldly: "Wujun is coming. He has been here for a long time. I heard about it years ago. Wujun is at odds with Haimen and Jingkou. Now it seems that the rumors are true. We don't

Go and attack his water stronghold. He is already thankful to God, so how dare he come to cause trouble?"

Han Yong nodded and said: "That's right. Even if you give him ten courages, he won't dare. Send an order! Let the soldiers work harder and annihilate the Jin army before dark, and then attack Haimen with all their strength. Let's have dinner at Haimen.

Everyone in the army can eat as much as they want! Have fun as much as they want!"

"Yes!" The ordering soldier immediately ran to the bow of the ship, shouted loudly, and the orders were conveyed layer by layer. The momentum of the Jie Zhao navy suddenly increased! Climbing the city wall when hungry is nothing, and it is nothing if it is difficult and tired.

, what they need is Haimen’s wealth and Haimen’s women! Some Jie soldiers even had a big bulge in their crotches when they heard this order.

As the two armies were at each other's throats, there was no secret in the orders issued by both sides. The faces of everyone in Xie Shang were extremely ugly. Although the overwhelming anger was burning in everyone's chest, there was no way to deal with it based on the current situation.

Look, defeat will no longer be a legend.

"Crash!" There was a loud splash, and fifty feet ahead on the left, a Jingkou battleship was besieged by three Jie ships. Several of them were photographed at the same time, and in the blink of an eye, they were beaten to pieces.

After a huge whirlpool, it was swallowed up in an instant.

As the war situation worsens, the Jie army's advantage becomes more and more obvious, and there are more and more cases where the larger number is used to defeat the smaller number. According to this situation, it seems that the entire army will be annihilated before it gets dark.

"General!" Suddenly a general knelt down and shouted loudly: "General, please abandon the boat and go ashore immediately and return to Haimen. If you can defend the city, you can defend it. If you can't defend it, you can abandon the city with the people!"

"Thump, thump!" At the beginning, all the surrounding generals knelt down, and another person said sadly: "General, please don't hesitate, I will leave the child I am waiting for to the general."

"Nonsense!" Xie Shang's face sank and he said angrily: "I have sworn an oath to live and die with the entire army, how can I escape alone? Don't mention this again, get up quickly!"

"General, he will avenge us today! General, please leave the ship quickly. The safety of more than 100,000 people in Haimen depends on you!" After the third general finished speaking, he stood up suddenly and gave his hand heavily.

He said: "General, please forgive me for offending!" As soon as he finished speaking, he hugged Xie Shang and said, "Come and lend a hand, everyone. Without further ado, let's put the general on the boat!"

Xie Shang was silently saying goodbye to Yuan Nuzheng in his heart, and seven or eight of his generals clasped their hands and legs, and walked quickly towards the stern of the ship carrying Xie Shang.

"Quickly, put down my general!" Xie Shang struggled and shouted repeatedly, but how could he, a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, be the opponent of seven or eight strong men in their thirties?

The generals ignored him and were about to order their personal followers to take Xie Shang to the boat. However, one of the generals showed disbelief and pointed to the back and shouted loudly: "Look, everyone, another boat is coming!"

"

Everyone quickly turned to look, and their hands unconsciously loosened a little. Xie Shang seized the opportunity to break free. Looking back, he saw a shadow of sails on the river upstream approaching at a very fast speed. The speed was faster than the previous Jingkou River.

The army was more than twice as fast!

"Could it be that the other half of the Jingkou army came over?" A general frowned and said to himself.

"This" another general shook his head, "It's impossible. Since he is coming, why not come all at once? Coming in batches will only give the enemy every opportunity to defeat him. Is it the Wujun navy?"

"

Another general immediately retorted: "How can Wu Jun come to help? Let's wait a little longer and we will be able to see clearly after a while."

A little hope was ignited in the hearts of the Haimen and Jingkou coalition forces. Han Yong and his son on the other side apparently also discovered that a second naval force was coming to help.

"Damn it!" Jie Jiang scolded, minding his own business: "What's going on with Jin? It's like the butthole is blocked. If you don't pull it cleanly at once, pull it to the east and pull it to the west!"

Don’t you find it uncomfortable to hold it in?”

"Chi!" Han Fu quickly covered his mouth and exchanged disdainful looks with his father. Jiehu's reputation for being rough is indeed well-deserved. It is said that the king is illiterate!

Han Yong snorted coldly: "I didn't expect that there are hundreds of ships left in Jingkou. What's the use even if they come to help? At most, it will delay the court for a few hours. Hmph! How many come, I will eat him!"

Having said that, there was a hint of anger in Han Yong's eyebrows. The battle started before noon, and now the sun was setting. No matter how strong an iron man was, he couldn't withstand a long period of high-intensity fighting, let alone he planned to take advantage of it.

As for attacking the city at night, how much energy will the soldiers have left if we continue to attack like this? We will wait until tomorrow to attack again. More than 100,000 people in Haimen have already fled.

Han Fu seemed to have taken this into consideration and suggested: "Father, it seems we can only rest under Haimen City for one night."

Han Yong nodded: "It's okay, just let them live one more night!" As he said that, he turned his eyes to the front again.

As the distance got closer, Xie Shang and his generals gradually saw clearly that a large flag with the Chinese character Chiang Kai-shek was flying from the boat coming upstream.

"The word begins with Jiang? Which naval force is this? As far as the general knows, there is no general named Jiang in the Jingkou Army!" A general asked Xie Shang unconsciously.

Xie Shang was also confused. To be honest, his understanding of the Jingkou Army was not as good as that of his generals.

The other general, as if he had discovered something new, was surprised and said: "Look, why is their boat so strange? It has a pointed head and a pointed bottom, and a big iron awl is installed on the bow, but there is no shooting pole on the boat.

Do you just rely on big iron cones to ram the enemy ships? Wouldn't they be scattered? Moreover, his ship actually has five to seven sails. Why are there so many sails? Is it useful? "

Common warships at that time only had two to three sails and mainly relied on oars to move forward. Including Han Yong's navy, although most of the time they sailed on the sea, they only had three sails.

Xie Shang couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. Only Yunfeng could make these weird things. He had never seen anyone else besides him. What's more, the craftsmen who came from Liangzhou to help build the dock mentioned that their water

The commander-in-chief of the army was named Jiang Yan.

"Could it be the Liangzhou navy!" Xie Shang blurted out.

All the generals also stared directly at this fleet.

Riding the wind and waves all the way, the fleet approached at a flying speed, and the faces of the officers and men on board could even be seen clearly.

Suddenly, a loud shout came: "I, Jiang Yan, is the naval commander of Liangzhou, and has been ordered by the King of Qin to come to Haimen to help!"

It is indeed the Liangzhou navy!

Xie Shang felt a huge weight drop in his heart and couldn't help shouting: "Shang represents Haimen. All the soldiers of the Jingkou and Jingkou armies would like to thank General Jiang. We also thank the King of Qin. However, the Jie thieves are powerful and the ships are strong. Please ask Mr. Jiang."

General, don’t take it lightly!”

Jiang Yan, who was standing on the bow of the ship, cast his gaze forward and suddenly took a breath. Judging from the flags, two-thirds of the river was occupied by Jie Zhao navy warships, all of which were fighting ships. They had obviously occupied the area.

Overwhelming advantage. On the other hand, the Haimen and Jingkou armies had smaller ships and fewer ships. Most of them were already scarred. The countless dead bodies and debris floating on the river all showed how tragic the battle was.

Jiang Yan quickly calmed down and raised his hands forward: "I was proud of the King of Qin's order, so I traveled day and night. Fortunately, I arrived in time. Please thank the general for a quick rest. From now on, I will leave it to my sons in Liangzhou.
