Chapter 870 The End of the Road
After Wenpin said that, the surrounding air suddenly became quiet.
You must know that Wenpin is a surrendered general, and he just surrendered a moment ago. Now he is asking for orders to pursue Cai Hao. Naturally, people have to wonder: Is he going to take the opportunity to escape and continue to follow Cai Hao?
Gao Chong didn't speak for a moment, Wenpin frowned with a frown on his face, and a hint of disappointment gradually passed between his brows.
"good!"
However, Gao Chong suddenly said: "General Wen is a righteous man and will not let me down. In this case, I would like to ask General Wen to lead his own men and pursue them later. I will give you a thousand more elite troops."
Wenpin was overjoyed and said excitedly: "Thank you, Gaodu! If I can't capture Cai Mao's head, I'll come to see you with my head!"
After saying that, Wenpin turned around excitedly, took his soldiers, warships, and the thousand sergeants Gao Chong had given him to chase after the fleeing Cai Mao army.
As early as when Cai Mao led his army to flee, Gao Chong spotted him on the building ship from a distance, so he ordered Ding Feng to lead his troops to intercept it.
When Wenpin arrived with his army, Ding Feng was leading his troops to fight with Cai Mao.
"Kill, don't let Cai Mao escape!"
Although Ding Feng was brave, his troops only had more than 3,000 men. He could only stop the enemy army for a while, but he could not conquer the enemy army.
"Brother! Wenpin's men are here. We will attack together. Under attack from both inside and outside, Ding Feng will be defeated!" Cai He said with great joy.
Cai Mao was also overjoyed. He had never looked forward to Wenpin as much as he did at this moment. He ignored the old grudges and immediately said: "The flag bearer waved the flag and ordered Wenpin to attack from both front and rear with our army!"
The flag bearer in the Jingzhou Navy waved the flag vigorously, signaling Wenpin to attack Ding Feng's troops from the rear.
And Cai Mao shouted: "Don't be afraid, everyone, the reinforcements have arrived, we will defeat the enemy inside and outside!"
The morale of the Jingzhou navy, which was originally low due to escaping and being trapped in a bitter battle, could not help but improve after hearing the news.
However.
"Cai Mao is a thief! You are the commander-in-chief of Jingzhou in vain. You assassinated the state herdsman, manipulated the young master, and abandoned thousands of my athletes, just to escape for your own lives. How can you be worthy of being a general of the armed forces?"
Wenpin shouted sternly: "Young men! Today we are ready to surrender to the imperial court and kill the traitor Cai Hao! If the sons of Jingzhou want to survive, they must surrender immediately. Anyone who dares to sacrifice his life for this thief Cai Hao will be the life or death of me, Wenpin." enemy!"
What?
Hearing Wenpin's words, the Jingzhou navy under Cai Mao was stunned. Didn't they agree that Wenpin was here for reinforcements? Why did they suddenly change and start killing each other?
Cai Mao was also stunned, and then said angrily: "Wenpin traitor is really abominable!"
But Wenpin didn't hear it at all. He led more than 2,000 elite soldiers under his command and 1,000 Xiliang sailors reinforced by Gao Chong, totaling more than 3,000 people, and suddenly rushed into the battle group.
Originally there were 3,000 men under Ding Feng's command, plus the more than 3,000 men under Wenpin, the total number was nearly 7,000, which was equivalent to the number of remnants of the Jingzhou Navy. However, the combat capabilities of the two armies are not at the same level at all. The Xiliang Navy has strong morale and is about to fight, while the Jingzhou Navy has no fighting spirit and no fighting spirit, just like a Tyrannosaurus rex trying to hunt down a Triceratops.
The Triceratops has horns on its head, so it can protect itself and barely fight with the Tyrannosaurus rex, but they are grass eaters after all, and they only want to fight off the Tyrannosaurus rex to protect themselves; while Tyrannosaurus rex eats meat, so if you can't defeat the Triceratops rex, you will have to fight. I have to go hungry, how can I not go all out?
Wenpin led his army and Ding Fengjun attacked back and forth, and the Jingzhou Navy suddenly fell into a bitter battle.
Ding Feng was already unstoppable, but Wenpin was even more unstoppable. The two generals rushed back and forth in the Jingzhou Navy like two sharp cones, killing the Jingzhou Navy to pieces. For war.
Wenpin is a brave general in the Jingzhou army. Although his official position is not high, he always has a high prestige in the army. Because Wenpin fights very bravely, the army naturally puts courage first, so he admires Wenpin very much.
Therefore, when many Jingzhou soldiers saw Wenpin coming to kill him from a distance, they simply dropped their weapons and shouted to surrender.
"Captain Wen, I am willing to surrender!"
"Captain Wen, don't kill me, I'm willing to surrender."
Large areas of Jingzhou navy surrendered one after another. Cai Mao saw it from a distance and couldn't help but get even more angry. The knuckles holding the sword hilt turned slightly white, but he was powerless to stop it all.
"Brother, brother, what should our army do?" Cai He couldn't help but said in horror. He finally escaped from Xiangyang City, is he going to be captured without mercy again today?
"What to do, what to do? I know what to do?" Cai Hao said angrily. Seeing Cai Hao's anger, Cai He was so frightened that he trembled and did not dare to say anything.
As more and more Jingzhou soldiers asked to surrender, Wenpin easily opened a passage among the thousands of troops, took a stern ship, and cut through the waves towards the battleship where Cai Mao was.
"Commander, Captain Wen is here!" the soldiers on the side shouted loudly.
Cai Mao said fiercely: "Order the former soldiers to stop Wen Pin and not come forward."
Although Cai Mao's order was passed on, it was difficult to execute because there were not many Jingzhou warships in the surrounding area. After seeing the sudden change in the situation, most of them surrendered to Wenpin, and there was no one to stop them.
"Hahaha, give them all to me!"
Wenpin laughed loudly and waved his hand to order the surrendering Jingzhou Navy to retreat temporarily. He led his troops to surround Cai Hao's battleships, while Ding Feng also led his troops to follow up and surrounded Cai Hao's battleships. Surrounded by it.
For a moment, the battleship was surrounded by large and small warships of the Xiliang Navy, surrounding the battleship. It was like a swarm of sharks emerging from the sea, surrounding a huge sperm whale in the middle. The swarm of sharks kept coming. Step forward to bite off a piece of meat from the giant whale.
It is ridiculous to say that there were 18,000 Jingzhou naval forces and hundreds of large and small battleships back then, but now only this battleship, which Cai Hao himself was aboard, was still fighting stubbornly.
Cai Mao drew his sword in his hand, his eyes were scarlet, and roared: "Kill me, sink these Xiliang water fish, sink Wenpin!"
The fighting ship Cai Hao was riding was naturally the largest one in the Jingzhou Navy. The deck was divided into three levels. Each level was equipped with a parapet and a shed cover, and there was a shooting hole above the parapet. .
This battleship is huge in shape. Among a group of stern warships and small boats, it can be said to be a giant.
Under Cai Mao's command, the fighting ship suddenly galloped out, like a giant beast roaring, and instantly hit a walking boat. How could this small walking boat withstand the force of the fighting boat? The boat was immediately divided into two parts, and the soldiers on board fell into the water.
