Chapter 376 Chen Youliang ran away

The sailors who rushed ashore had nowhere to hide in the overwhelming rain and were knocked to the ground one after another.

In the water, it's dead, rushing to the shore, it's also dead! They attacked up, which was originally a disadvantage, but now, they have been completely brought about death by these bullets.

Chen Youliang hid in the cabin and looked at the scene on the shore.

His navy is being slaughtered by the other side in a large area, but he himself has nothing to do.

How does the other party know that he is going to pass from here? Why did you choose the terrain here to ambush yourself? Chen Youliang is full of doubts in his heart, but he knows that now is not the time to ask these questions. What he needs most now is how to deal with the current situation.

Suddenly, he heard a soft grin from the hull.

Damn, the ship is going to crack!

Although his warship was extremely strong, under the cover of endless bullets, some fragile places began to be unbearable. His warship, even if it was not bombarded by the other side's god of war cannons, was about to collapse at the end of the crossbow.

"Your Majesty, the keel of the warship begins to crack, and it may be dangerous at any time. You'd better move to the small boat behind you first!" A guard came in and said.

Chen Youliang looked outside, gritted his teeth helplessly and rushed out.

At this time, most of the scattered cannons adjusted their targets to deal with the sailors who rushed to the shore. Only then could Chen Youliang jump on the boat behind safely. At this time, almost all the big boats in front of them began to struggle.

Chen Youliang looked at the fleet in the rear. This time, when he came out, the big ship was in the front and the small boat was in the back. Although the big ship was hit badly, the small boat was fine.

"Command the fleet to withdraw from the battle." Chen Youliang began to give the last order on the boat.

The other party occupies a favorable terrain, is condescending, and has such a powerful weapon that he has no chance of winning at all. Although the big ship in front of him was knocked down, he still has nearly one-third of his troops in the small boat behind. These troops have not been seriously injured.

Retire, don't retreat. When the other party frees up, I'm afraid that the remaining water troops will be destroyed.

Chen Youliang can't take care of his surrounded navy at this time.

The small boat behind

had been dumbfounded for a long time. They watched the navy in front of them being covered by sudden artillery fire, and then they were defeated and killed in large numbers.

They were behind, just within the reach of the other party. They wanted to retreat, but they didn't dare.

The place where Zhang Yang was ambushed just surrounded by the big ships of Chen Youliang's water army. However, Chen Youliang's water army ships were particularly large, with more than 200 large ships and seven or eight hundred small boats. It was impossible to surround them all of them. Even if the range of the God of War Cannon was far enough, it had been blocked by the mountains because of the tortuous waterway. Therefore, The navy in the small boat behind has not been hit for the time being.

Zhang Yang first concentrated all his strength and killed the other party's big ship. The big ship is the main force, and the small boat is only a little.

Chen Youliang's warship was in the middle and back. The first round of gunfire just now knocked off the front and rear ships and blocked the route. However, he did not greet Chen Youliang's warship. After Chen Youliang jumped off the boat, the boat would not be hit by the sinking ship. Therefore, Chen Youliang was lucky to come to the back. On the boat.

Now, he is lucky to take his only remaining navy and start the choice of retreating.

Thinking of his big ships, which are suffering from the enemy, Chen Youliang is heartbroken. Although he has not met the enemy face to face so far, the firepower is so strong that he will not come out a second one except Zhang Shicheng's army.

Originally, I wanted to attack, but now I was attacked by the other party.

Chen Youliang finally knew that Zhang Shicheng could dominate until now, and there was definitely capital. If there were only advanced fires, he would not have been swallowed up by many forces and have been able to develop and grow until now. There are definitely a few straw bags like Xu Shouhui.

Retreat, wait until you return to Hezhou, and then make a plan.

Although he is brave and likes to be desperate, it doesn't mean that Chen Youliang will not judge the situation. Chen Youliang knows that he lost this time, but that's nothing. At worst, he will start all over again.

What Chen Youliang doesn't know is that Zhang Yang's principle is that if he doesn't fight or wants to fight, he will completely clean up the other party.

On the river of Hezhou, Bian Yuanheng has been waiting for a long time.

In this battle, the most depressing thing is probably Chang Yuchun.

Chang Yuchun arranged two lines of defense outside, which were useless at all. On the contrary, he found the boat behind him who escaped from the waterway, but he didn't get any good except for a few shots from a distance.

Although Chen Youliang's sailors are brave, when Chen Youliang's warship sinks, the other sailors will have no fighting spirit. They have long been beaten to lose their fighting spirit and not be destroyed. There is only one choice to surrender.

The few who escaped have also been killed by the firemen on the top of the mountain, left for Chang Yuchun, leaving only to wait and see.

Zhang Yang was on the mountain. After watching the end of the whole battle, what he didn't expect was that the battle ended so easily. Chen Youliang's powerful water army has always given him a heavy pressure, making Zhang Yang feel that his water army can't compete with the other party at all.

But now, without throwing in the navy, just an attack, killing the dense warships on the other party's water and capturing tens of thousands of people on the other side. Isn't this battle too easy?

Where is Chen Youliang? Has it sunk into the water?

Zhang Yang knows that as long as Chen Youliang is not defeated in this battle, it will not be a complete victory.

"Brother, Chen Youliang's boat ran away!" Chang Yuchun saw Zhang Yang and immediately reported what he saw.

Run away? Due to the obstruction of the mountains, the battle here was fierce. Zhang Yang did not expect that Chen Youliang still had so many boats.

"How much did you run?"

"At least hundreds of boats happened to be on the other side of the waterway. At first, we didn't notice it. When we found out, the other party had driven the boat and retreated." Chang Yuchun said.

Although he expected the strength of Chen Youliang's water army and arranged a wide defensive surface, he didn't expect that he was not completely surrounded and was partially escaped by the other party. Zhang Yang regretted it.

However, looking at the bombed ships on the surface of the water, there were wreckage everywhere. Zhang Yang felt that he could be satisfied. After this war, Chen Youliang's navy was mostly destroyed, and the rest was not the climate.

Although they escaped from behind, Bian Yuanheng's water army was waiting for them on the Yangtze River! Can their defeated soldiers escape Bian Yuanheng's pursuit?

"Yuanheng will deal with those fleeing ships." Zhang Yang said.

"Brother, after this battle, our new army didn't get any battle!" Chang Yuchun said with some complaints.

"Chen Youliang's navy seems to be aggressive, but I didn't expect it to be so indiscreet." Zhang Yang said, "It's okay. We still have a lot of fights."

"Brother, I have an idea." Chang Yuchun said.

Looking at Chang Yuchun's excited eyes, Zhang Yang knew that the guy who was itchy without fighting these days must have an idea.

"Say it."

"Brother, now the main force of Chen Youliang has been taken down by us. Let's continue to grab Chen Youliang's territory while the iron is hot!"

This boy's appetite is always so big. Zhang Yang wants to refuse rationally, but he thinks again that this is indeed an opportunity.

Last time I set out from Jiangbei, I laid a large area of land in a month. Now, it is another great opportunity to defeat Chen Youliang and take over all his territory. Then, the area I occupied will expand several times again.

If half a year ago, Zhang Yang would never dare to think so, but now, he has enough strength, especially Chang Yuchun's 50,000 new army, which can already be the main force of a assault, coupled with the entry of the new warship, this is definitely not a dream!

"Then, how do you choose the offensive route?" Zhang Yang asked.

"Along the coast of the Yangtze River, push upstream, with the fastest momentum, capture Longwan, Longxing, and force the other party's capital Jiangzhou. Chen Youliang usurp the power and seize the throne. Tianwan old part has a different mind. We can put Chen Youliang's territory on our flag at the least cost." Chang Yuchun said.

Thinking of Chen Youliang's large land, Zhang Yang was moved.

"This idea is really good." Zhang Yang said.

"Brother, then send us!" Chang Yuchun said, "Our new army has 50,000 well-equipped soldiers. It's absolutely not a problem to attack the city. Let's open up the territory for the eldest brother.

Zhang Yang thought for a long time and finally made up his mind: "Okay, let's take the new army as the main force. However, you have to bring 20 cannons as support firepower. In addition, you new army, don't talk about your achievements. You should keep in touch with the troops of the water army Bian Yuanheng. After encountering tenacious resistance, you can directly let Yuanheng's artillery support. , collapse the other party's wall. If you lose too much, I will definitely condemn you.

"Yes, don't worry, big brother." Chang Yuchun said happily, "Our new army will definitely complete the task, and the army will definitely be well preserved."

After saying that, Chang Yuchun ran to a high place and shouted, "New army, gather, march!"

After waiting for such a long time, I finally waited for this opportunity. I took down the vast land in the west!

When Chang Yuchun was excitedly preparing to gather troops and go to the West, he didn't know that there was already an army, which was earlier than him.

Pretense to attack Ying Tianfu, Zhu Yuanzhang left only a small team of people and horses, riding horses every day, holding flags, and turning around far away.

And the large army has already calmed down. After half a month's trek, it has come to Jiangzhou, the capital of Tianwan.

At this time, Chen Youliang's son, Chen Li, and Zhang Dingbian, the general, were left behind in Jiangzhou. Wenchen had Shangshu Huang Zhao and Jinshi Jieguan. They were immediately shocked when they learned that a large number of troops had appeared outside.
