Chapter 269 On the Yangtze River
"Not good, tell the lord quickly, let the lord turn the bow of the boat"

Above the Yangtze River, Ji Ling kept jumping among the various boats driving, with a look of panic on his face.

"My lord, turn around quickly, there are enemy ships ahead"

Ji Ling finally jumped onto Yuan Shu's main ship, and said anxiously.

"Enemy, then fight over"

Yuan Shu's expression remained unchanged and he said that he had just defeated Sun Jian and beheaded Sun Jian under the city of Nanchang, he was full of ambition.

"My lord, there are too many enemy troops, and our army has just experienced fighting, so we don't have much combat power. Why don't we avoid it for now, and make plans after the army has cultivated."

Ji Ling was not Yuan Shu. He had observed before that the number of enemy warships was simply terrifying, with masts stretching like clouds for thousands of miles.

The number of warships is definitely several times that of their army.

And most of the ships under their feet are transport ships, not real warships, and they don't have much combat power at all.

Just relying on the hundred warships ahead, it is really no different from sending them to death.

And while Ji Ling was still trying to persuade Yuan Shu to turn around, the warship he was talking about was getting closer and closer to the warship ahead of Yuan Shu.

"My lord, Yuan Shu's army is ahead."

Among the thousands of sails is a tall warship, more than 50 feet long, three stories high, with fluttering flags. This ship is the main ship of the fleet.

"Very good! This time, kill him in one fell swoop"

In the main ship, Su Fan also raised his binoculars and looked at Yuan Shu's army in the distance, with a killing intent on his face.

He had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Finally, when the time came, Sun Jian of Yuzhang had been defeated, so he waited for Yuan Shu to return home.

And from Yuzhang back to Runan, if you go by land, it will be thousands of miles, or even if you take a detour, it may be thousands of miles away, and if you go by water, although the distance may be farther, the speed will be doubled. more than.

So after Su Fan learned about Yuan Shu's army, he had already arranged for thousands of warships to sail south from the mouth of the Guangling River, and stop the opponent directly in the middle of the river.

The warships under Su Fan's command have been built since he started building the East China Sea Territory. Now more than ten years have passed, and there are tens of thousands of warships.

There were a full 50 navy troops, and this time he dispatched half of the navy troops just to take down Yuan Shu in one fell swoop.

"Do it! The enemy has found out, don't let them run away"

On this big river, they have an absolute advantage. You must know that the Yangtze River in this world is also expanded.

The surface of the river looks as boundless as the sea.

Hundreds of warships can be lined up and gallop towards Yuan Shu's army quickly.

The warships of both sides are not of the same level in terms of quantity or quality.

Yuan Shu also has no less than [-] ships, but more than [-]% of them are transport ships. The ships are very large, with a draft of no less than a thousand tons, but they do not have the slightest combat power.

The only ones with combat effectiveness are probably the nearly [-] warships ahead.

These warships weighed about [-] to [-] tons. On Su Fan's side, they were only medium and low warships.

Of his thousands of warships, the small warships weighed [-] tons, almost half of them, the medium-sized warships weighed [-] tons, about a thousand, and there were hundreds of large warships left.

Following Su Fan's order, the generals of the navy immediately organized their respective fleets, and quickly killed them in the formation of sharp arrows.

Soon, Yuan Shu's army also found out, and Su Fan's warships panicked, looking at the fleet that covered the sky and the sun.

Yuan Shu's soldiers on the warship at the front all had expressions of fear on their faces.

It's a pity that before they wanted to retreat, the warship ahead was already galloping towards them at high speed.

When the distance between the two parties is less than two miles.

They heard the roaring roar, and the sharp-eyed soldiers suddenly saw the dots in the sky.

Boom boom boom!
A few seconds later, I saw chunks of balls smashing towards them.

"Enemy attack!"

"Quickly dodge!"

However it was too late.

Countless cannonballs have already bombarded, raining down, hitting the river surface with little splashes, and once they land on their warship, they will either explode suddenly or create a huge crater.

Thousands of cannons and countless catapults blasted towards this side one after another.

In an instant, several warships were smashed and sank.

More soldiers were smashed to pieces.

"Fight back, give me a fight back"

Yuan Shu's subordinates were not of the same generation. Seeing the enemy army getting closer and closer, some generals also commanded the archers and catapults on their warships to launch a counterattack.

However, their counterattack was so small.

The two sides have always controlled a distance of about 500 meters. Although this distance can be reached by archers, it is only a small part. Even if it is shot, the threat is extremely small.

They even said that there was no threat at all, because Su Fan's army was covered in iron armor, and there was a layer of leather armor on top of the iron armor.

Even if the bow and arrow hit them, they couldn't do any damage to them at all.

As if tickling.

The battle fell into a one-sided situation, and Yuan Shu's army was forced to endure constant long-range attacks.

"Immediately invite Yuan Zheng and the others to stop them"

Yuan Shu in the rear, when he learned that the team in front of him had lost dozens of scorpions in just one stick of incense, while the enemy army had not lost a single one, his face instantly became gloomy.

"Let the transport ship retreat immediately, find the river bank, and then board the ship immediately"

Yuan Shu wasn't completely stupid. Although he had nearly a thousand warships, he didn't seem to be a match for the enemy at all. If these warships couldn't stop him, then the transport ships behind him would become targets.

On these transport ships, not only grain and grass but also soldiers were transported. Once these soldiers were sunk or captured, he would be injured and even fall into danger.

So now, he didn't care about other things, and hurriedly called the people from the magic group to stop the enemy's advance.

Following Yuan Shu's order, soon hundreds of men in robes galloped towards the front line.

Among them, a dozen or so people headed directly rowed across the river, and these dozen or so people were all monks in the soul refining state.

"Ok!"

"Everyone, Yuan Shu's magic group is dispatched, now it's up to you."

Su Fan also quickly noticed the changes on the front line, especially the dozen or so powerful spiritual beings who had been perceived by his spiritual sense.

These ten people were really extraordinary. When they came to the front line, they immediately cast their spells. Following their actions, the river suddenly became choppy.

Huge waves began to surge towards Su Fan's battleship.

"How dare!"

At this time, a group of fierce generals under Su Fan's command also started their hands one after another, urging the gang energy one by one, and instantly smashed the huge waves.

At the same time, veteran Huang Zhong and Tai Shici even took out their precious bows.
