    The battleships of the Chishui Army crossed the river, blocking Huang Gai's path.

    "Prepare the trebuchet!"

    Gan Ning gave the order and countless soldiers took action.

    The ship on the first floor was loaded with a small catapult, with a range of about three hundred steps.

    The Chishui Army was at the lower reaches. In order to establish an advantage, Gan Ning chose to strike first.

    "put!"

    Dozens of boulders jumped into the air, and most of them hit the river, causing splashes of water.

    Only a few hit the target.

    The imagined scene of being torn apart did not appear, only one or two ships leaked from the side.

    The rest hit the solid deck.

    In order to deal with the Chishui Army, Jingzhou's ship craftsmanship is constantly improving.

    This is the result.

    Of course, this is also because the trebuchet model is too small.

    However, Gan Ning was not discouraged. After all, he could still throw stones about three times.

    The most important thing is that it can give the enemy a great psychological deterrent.

    Huang Gai¡¯s plan should be very simple, just use the flow of the river to go straight to the Chishui Army.

    After the stone throwing was completed, Huang Gai's ship was very close. Gan Ning waved his hand and the ballista started firing.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Countless crossbow arrows shot out.

    The Jingzhou naval forces on the deck took cover one after another. The crossbow arrows penetrated the ship wall, and many people suffered great misfortune.

    The Jingzhou navy had already lost thousands of men before they even got close.

    We are finally close!

    I was finally able to fight back.

    "Fire the arrow!" Huang Gai ordered.

    Countless arrows fell from the sky, and the Chishui army took out shields to block them all.

    The only advantage of Jingzhou Navy is that it goes smoothly!

    Huang Gai¡¯s command was also good, at least there were no major mistakes.  Use this advantage to continuously expand your results.

    However, when they got closer, they experienced despair.

    The bows and arrows of the Chishui Army were like flying rain all over the sky.

    The density is probably three times that of Jingzhou Navy.

    Huang Gai¡¯s eyes widened when he saw this scene.  There is not much difference in the strength of the two sides, but the Chishui Army is actually equipped with so many archers?

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????!

    The arrow sank into the wood and made a loud sound.  Of course, this was accompanied by the painful wails of the soldiers.

    In such a dense rain of arrows, they had no choice but to escape.

    Gan Ning commanded the ship and went on a rampage.  This tactic is very crude and brutal, but very effective.

    Because Yangzhou has always been in a leading position in shipbuilding technology.

    The battle has begun.

    This vigorous water battle lasted all afternoon.

    Looking at the Chishui Army, which became more and more courageous as they fought, and the dwindling number of subordinates, Huang Gai had no choice but to order a retreat.

    Gan Ning fought bloody battles and stood on the bow deck, watching Huang Gai slowly leave with the remaining soldiers without pursuing him.

    Because he has more important tasks.

    I hope nothing happens to Runan, otherwise the situation will become extremely serious.

    Gan Ning was still very afraid of Sun Ce.

    While the Chishui Army was resting, Sun Ce had already entered Runan.

    The messenger sent by Lu Xun was still a step too late.

    At this time, Chen Qun was supervising the transportation of food. By the time he reacted, it was already too late.

    "What, Jingzhou soldiers were found in the southwest?" Chen Qun was startled, and without hesitation, he abandoned the food and grass and retreated into the city.

    Faced with endless supplies of food and grass, Sun Ce was not tempted and immediately pursued him.

    "My lord, the enemy is right in front. Give me three thousand cavalry and I can defeat them!" Cheng Pu said.

    As a veteran general with rich experience, Cheng Pu could tell at once that the Runan defenders were panicking and had no choice but to choose their way out.

    However, Sun Ce rejected the proposal and said, "What I want is Runan."

    Cheng Pu understood immediately and hung far behind Chen Qun.

    In terms of leading troops, Chen Qun was very immature and even ordered the guard to open the city gate at this moment.

    At the moment when the soldiers poured in, Sun Ce led the cavalry to fall from the sky.

    The Runan defenders were immediately in chaos. Sun Ce took the lead and without giving Runan a chance to breathe, he rushed directly into the crowd and snatched the city gate.Chen Qun realized the seriousness of the problem, but he couldn't close the city gate at this time, right?

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Outside of the discussion, none of his own people would agree.

    Chen Qun quickly organized a defense, but Sun Ce did not give him a chance.

    After the bloody killing, Chen Qun finally realized that it was irreversible and the city gate would definitely be lost.

    And Sun Ce¡¯s army was densely packed, numbering around 50,000.

    With such a comparison of military strength, the chances of winning are too slim.

    At this moment, there is no famous general in Runan.

    In order to preserve his strength, he ordered to withdraw from Runan City.

    Sun Ce ordered Cheng Pu to pursue him for a while, but Cheng Pu did not take any advantage.

    Chen Qun, who was already safe, felt uncomfortable at the moment.

    "I am so ashamed of my lord!"

    Although Chen Qun is not good at fighting, it does not mean that he has no knowledge.

    He knows very well what Runan means.

    So, he immediately wrote two letters and sent popular horses to Zhang Liao and Gan Ning respectively.

    Worried that Sun Ce would blockade Runan, Chen Qun sent six batches of messengers one after another.

    Since the loss is inevitable, the only option is to stop the loss.

    As for the more than 10,000 troops who escaped, Chen Qun took them into Jiujiang County to prevent Sun Ce from making a sudden attack and asked Lu Su for help.

    Dongyang City still has some garrison troops.

    At this moment, we can only mobilize to defend Jiujiang County.

    Although it will cause Dongyang City to be empty, no prince can threaten Dongyang City.

    Sun Ce¡¯s attack caused a series of reactions.

    Not only was Zhang Liao's army threatened, but even Jiujiang County was exposed to Sun Ce's sight.

    This entry point is perfect.

    For Yangzhou, the situation is more serious.

    Lu Xun went up the river and met Gan Ning.

    The deployment of the Yangzhou defenders will still take time, and the time will be won by the Chishui Army.

    However, Gan Ning had too few troops.

    There are only 50,000.

    Sun Ce has an army of 200,000!

    After capturing Runan, Zhou Yu no longer needed to cover up his whereabouts and led his army straight to Runan.

    "You're too late." Gan Ning said.

    In this regard, Lu Xun could only express regret. If he could have noticed Zhou Yu's intentions earlier, things would not have become so bad.

    "It's so surprising that Sun Ce would choose Runan as the breakthrough point. Now, what we need is how to solve the problem." Lu Xun said.

    "Do you have any good ideas?" Gan Ning asked.

    "Runan has a lot of food, so attacking Sun Ce's food road will not cause harm to him in a short time. As for attacking Jingzhou, we don't have enough troops. If we want to unify the Jiaozhou and Yangzhou defenders, we don't have a month."  There is no time to do it. This month is enough for Sun Ce to do a lot of things." Lu Xun said.

    Even with the efficiency of Yangzhou, this time cannot be shortened, because Jiaozhou is too big and far away.

    "You don't need to tell me the analysis process, the method I need now." Gan Ning said.

    Lu Xun smiled bitterly. If there was really a good solution, he wouldn't mind contributing it.

    However, he has been unable to figure it out.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
