With the help of another torrent, more than a dozen small boats had already rushed towards Yongkin Gate like flying. Many soldiers had already swung their hook ropes in their hands, and they just waited to get the hook and pull the city gate as soon as they arrived. Some people ignited the rockets and planned to set fire to the door. With the strength of this water gate, they might be severely damaged by the various means of the people on the dozen ships.

The soldiers of the Wu army, who finally noticed this change, were also panicked and no longer continued to shoot arrows on the large ships that were about to withdraw from their range. Instead, they poured all the weapons at hand towards the small boats that were getting closer and closer. However, this time their attacks on the enemy were not as significant as before, because taking advantage of this time, several small boats had sailed into the dead corners of the city's sight, and neither arrows nor wood nor stone could reach them.

Li Jun and the Song army soldiers who had already withdrawn for a long distance cheered when they saw this, and then the horn rose again, and all the ships of all sizes rushed towards Yongkin Gate again. Their purpose this time was no longer to defeat the enemy by themselves, but to create more favorable conditions for those small boats near the Water Gate.

Because of the waves, Zhang Shun's ship was unable to rush over as soon as possible. When he wanted to do this, the arrows above had already fallen like raindrops, which forced him to give up the decision to rush again. He could only retreat a little disappointedly, and was still a little angry: "It seems that the first skill of breaking the city is that he could not get it. If he had known that the Yong Kinmen was so ineffective, he would have convinced Brother Gongming to devote all his brothers to this battle!"

Li Jun, who continued to press forward from behind, suddenly felt a shock at this moment and felt something was wrong. Because he looked up and saw that Wu Jun in the city had stabilized again at this time, and turned his attention to his own big ship, but he didn't care about the more threatening small boats. What was going on?

The answer appeared a moment later. As soon as the boats arrived at the best position and were about to be in place, they suddenly shook and stopped immediately. This surprised everyone on the boat. You must know that the river water in the back is still coming in endlessly, and the thrust is full. How could a mere boat stop suddenly?

Someone hurriedly leaned over and looked carefully under the water, and then exclaimed loudly: "There is something under the water that entangled our ships, which are fishing nets... The anti-army actually laid out layers of fishing nets here early in the morning. Hard rushing will only trap all the ships here, and it is difficult to move forward!"

This discovery immediately made everyone panic because their position was a bit awkward at this time. They were not only separated from their own fleet, but also some distance from Yongkinmen ahead, and they were not yet able to destroy the city gate. What's more important is that since the enemy has made such arrangements, how could they not have a plan for the next step?

The uneasiness in his heart made some sailors immediately think of it and then retreat, but if they let them row back, the ship that was entangled by layers of fishing nets could not move, and at most it would spin on the spot. This made the ship tighter and the situation became more and more dangerous and unfavorable.

The ships behind also saw their danger, and Li Jun immediately shouted: "Hurry up, send a few ships to pick them up!"

Zhang Shun, who had not been able to rush to the front before, heard this, without saying a word, took several small boats again and quickly headed over there. As a master of water warfare who had been hanging on the water for many years, he quickly judged the specific location of the dangerous area. Under his command, several small boats that were connected could easily avoid the fishing nets and parked steadily on the river surface that was still a distance from the trapped ship.

But just as the sergeants on the boat were about to dive and swim over, variables regenerated.

With a creaking sound, the Yongkin Gate, which had been closed before, suddenly opened, and a row of small boats had rushed out against the current. With a glance from afar, Zhang Shun saw the doorway. Wu Jun actually set up another gate in the Yongkin Gate, and then stored water to lift it up, so that the ships between the two doors were at a higher position than the outside river surface. Now, as soon as the door opened, the water flowed down the ground and rushed out with the small boats.

But what is strange is that there were no soldiers on the small boats that rushed out of the door. But after seeing the jars and jars on the boat and the hay covered with hay, Zhang Shun's face was twisted in shock: "Jump the ship quickly, they are going to attack with fire!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several ships appeared inside the city gate, but these ships did not take the opportunity to rush out again, and there were also archers standing on the top. With a command, countless rockets were shot out quickly and landed on the empty ships that were still rushing forward. With the sound of booming, the empty ships had become fire ships, and they accelerated their speed and crashed forward.

All this happened so quickly that the hundreds of soldiers trapped on the ship could not react, let alone take this opportunity to jump ship and escape. So, a terrible scene happened in front of Zhang Shun. The fire boats directly hit the trapped ship. While causing the people above to fall, they quickly ignited the ship where they were, and ignited the bodies of these helpless soldiers, making them scream. At the same time, some people didn't care about anything else and jumped into the water below.

But the situation in the water was also very complicated. The entanglement of the ships made the fishing nets that were originally sunk at the bottom of the water. When a soldier jumped down in a panic, he was also entangled by these fishing nets. Suddenly, their hands and feet were bound, and the more they struggled, the more they were tied up, the tighter they were tied. No matter how good the water was, there was no use. They could only scream and wait for the fire on the boats around to spread and swallow themselves.

The shrill and desperate screams echoed on the river, making the Song army soldiers behind him unable to bear to hear it. Zhang Shun gritted his teeth and watched all this, wishing he could replace it and try his best to save some people. But reason told him that this was unrealistic. Not only could he not save people in the past, he would also lose his life.

Li Jun, who was in the back, looked depressed. He thought there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, but he didn't expect the enemy to have designed it long ago. If the enemy had not tried hard to stop it before, the big ship under his feet would have been broken in front of the Yong Kinmen Gate. Now it seems that he can only admit defeat and retreat...

It’s a pity that those soldiers trapped and died in the fire. They were all brothers in the Liangshanpo naval army. They did not die on the battlefield where they fought against the government army, but were depressed by the anti-army and died tragically under the fire.

Just as Li Jun made up his mind and wanted to give up today's siege and retreated, the ship beneath him suddenly shook, and then the soldiers around him exclaimed again: "No, we also have fishing nets under us..."

"What's going on? Didn't you still come and go freely just now? Where did these fishing nets come out?"

After seeing the miserable experience of the comrades ahead, the Song army soldiers were not only angry, but also indescribable fear. Now, after discovering that their ship was actually entangled with fishing nets, this fear increased exponentially, because it means that they may also face the same experience as those brothers in the robe who were still screaming in front of them.

"I should have thought of it long ago that since they had already arranged it, how could it be that ambush in front of Yongkin Gate and empty the large area of ​​rivers ahead?" Li Jun regretted it very much, and at the same time understood the root of it.

In fact, there were already layers of fishing nets under the water where I was driving. According to the principle, it should be entangled in the first round of attack and it was difficult to get out. However, because the water was released upstream and the river surface was quickly raised, the fishing nets fell to a position that could not affect the ship's navigation.

If this were the case, it would naturally be no problem for the Song army navy. But then, in order to catch all the Song army trapped in front of Yongkin Gate, they suddenly opened the city gate. Although they raised the river water again at the beginning, soon, as the waterway was completely unblocked, the river water in front of the city gate had become shallower. In this way, the fishing nets could once again pose a threat to the ships above.

As a large ship with heavier tonnage and lower waterline, it is naturally affected faster and is quickly entangled by layers of fishing nets.

"Quick! Adjust the sails quickly and use the wind to break the fishing net below. Let's evacuate here first!" Soon, Li Jun had recovered his calmness and hurriedly ordered. After all, a large ship is different from a small boat. It has stronger power and a small aura fishing net can be trapped if it is said to be sleepy?

Just as the Song army's ships quickly changed their tricks and wanted to retreat, the drums at the top of the city became anxious again. The group of ships that had been left in the city gate suddenly plucked up and rushed out as fast as possible, and rushed out.

Compared with the warships outside, there were at least twenty or thirty people, each of them rushed out was only seven or eight people, and they were all naked, with only a few weapons such as bows and arrows. In this way, the waterline of these ships was more than half shallower than that of the Song army's boats. They rushed through the waters covered with fishing net ropes and rushed towards the big ship that was about to get rid of the entanglement in front.

Both sides were still a little far apart. With the waves of shouting, arrows, guns and other weapons, they were fired and flew towards the three large ships, vowing to leave all these enemies in front of the Hongjin Gate.

In this way, the situation of the soldiers on the ship was in danger. They were already blocked from their actions and their targets were so large that they could not dodge the dense fire attacks, and they immediately started to set off fire everywhere.

Zhang Shun, who had already wanted to lead other boats back, was furious when he saw this: "I'm so bullying. Do you think I, Liangshan brothers, are so easy to bully?" He immediately took off his single clothes, then grabbed the short knife from his waist and roared, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, go into the water to fight the enemy!" As soon as he finished speaking, he had already drilled into the cold river.

After hesitating for a moment, the other naval soldiers followed suit and entered the water with their swords.

As the ace army of Liangshanpo, they are not only good at fighting on the water, but also dragons when they fall into the water!
