Chapter 890 Crossing the River to the Shore
Chapter 890 Crossing the River to the Shore
Zheng Qiu looked at the water carefully with clairvoyant eyes. When he found that a small reed rod was floating standing on the water, he couldn't help but smiled and waved back to Xu Shubao.Xu Shubao has followed Zheng Qiu for many years. He already knows Zheng Qiu's gestures very well. He immediately ordered the archers to prepare, and a group of sailors with fishing nets waited on the side of the ship.
Seeing that the reed rod was approaching the side of the boat, the sailors immediately spilled the fishing net. Four or five people pulled the rope at the same time. Soon, the water ghosts of the Northern Soviet Army were picked up by the fishing net and were still struggling crazy. The prepared archer immediately set the arrow, and a moment later the water ghost in the fishing net was shot as a hedgehog.
The fishing net was sprinkled only once, because the water ghost of the Black Flag Army sailor had quietly descended from the other side.
On the seemingly calm river, there was a place to start blistering soon, and then the piece of water turned red.
No one can see the fierce fighting under the water, but from the blood that is constantly being turned over, it can be guessed how fierce it is below.The middle-aged man on the east bank known as Mr. Xishan raised his eyes for a while and then his face changed color. He stood up sharply, and there was a flash of anger in his eyes.
"what happened?"
Sun Yingdian asked quickly.
Mr. Xishan, the proprietor of the same waste, was obviously disdainful, but he was very well disguised.He slowly shook his head and said, "It's nothing. Some fishermen have been lost. The sailors of the Black Banner Army look like the Yangtze River masters of Da Sui, but isn't this master in Luo Tu's hands? Fang Jie? "
Sun Yingdian saw the understatement that Mr. Xishan said, but he did not care about it: "Now in this world, such things as aberrations are no longer commonplace. What is strange to follow Luo Tu today and Fang Jie tomorrow, if I am stronger than the Black Banner Qiang, the sailor will come to me tomorrow. "
Hearing these words, Mr. Xishan glanced back at Sun Yingdian, with some profound meaning in his eyes.
"Blow the corner, let the boat lean over, our boat is small but the number is large, let the sailors climb the big boat, and stop the archers from throwing arrows here!"
Mr. Xishan gave a command, and hundreds of small boats that had already been prepared on the east bank were immediately drawn out.
The battle between underwater water ghosts ended very quickly. Although the fishermen of the Northern Soviet Army were good in water, but the skills of wrestling in sleep were far less than those of the sailor, and it did not exceed ten minutes from the beginning to the end.Hundreds of corpses floated on the water and drifted south along the river.
Looking at the costumes of those people, most of them are fishermen.
The sailor's water ghost has almost no loss, which is very meaningful for morale improvement, and the sailors on the big ship immediately burst into cheers.
The people who watched the battle on the shore did not know what was happening, because they could not see clearly from a distance, but they heard cheers from the Black Flag Army sailor, and they also cheered.
"what happened?"
The people behind asked anxiously, fearing that they had missed a good show.
"do not know!"
The people who shouted in front shook their heads: "Why don't you, anyway, the people on our side cheering again, it must have won a while!"
The people in the back nodded and followed the cry of wailing.
Hundreds of boats quickly approached the side of the big ship. The soldiers with giant shields were in front of them. Their task was to block the feather arrows that were spilled from the big ship for the soldiers behind. They are all selected martial arts soldiers, their purpose is to board the ship.
When there was still about one hundred meters away from the big ship, the small boat in the front suddenly shook violently. Although the soldiers of the North Soviet Army on the small boat were not dry ducks, they could not stand stably due to the shaking.At this moment, a person suddenly appeared in the water, grabbing the ankle of a soldier of the Northern Soviet Army with one hand and yanking it hard, and the soldier shouted and immediately fell into the water. After a while, the neck was wiped with a knife The body slowly drifted up.
The water ghost of the Black Flag Army sailor swam back and forth under the boat with a knife, just like a shark waiting for an opportunity to prey.The Soviet soldiers on the boat were so scared that they were alert.Because they are going to fight on board the big ship, they have no one to carry long weapons, and they are not able to deal with the water ghost.
Mr. Xishan's face was a little ugly. In just ten minutes, at least a dozen Soviet soldiers on a small boat were tipped into the water. The sleeping black flag army water ghost rushed up like a ferocious shark. In the meantime, the fallen soldiers of the Northern Soviet Army were torn apart.
"Almost, let the water ghost come back."
Zheng Qiu said lightly.
The trumpet sounded on the big ship, and the sound of the horn only came to mind. Calm was restored on the surface of the river, which shows how well trained the black flag's water ghosts are.
"Crossbow vehicle!"
Zheng Qiu waved his hand, and the flag bearer on the mast immediately waved the flag.Seeing the semaphores, the ships turned the crossbow cars over and adjusted their angles to the boats.
As the ordered flag waved, dozens of heavy crossbows smashed into the fleet of the Northern Soviet Army like meteors.The heavy crossbow with steel as the front and thin iron as the feather is vigorously heavy. Even if it is the sturdiness of the wooden boat, it is difficult to resist. Even if the boat hit by the heavy crossbow is not penetrated, the hull will shake violently.
A heavy crossbow directly shattered the huge shield at the bow of the ship, and the power of the crossbow arrows remained unchanged. After tearing the shieldman's heart, he continued to fly backward. The soldiers of the North Soviet Army standing in a row behind each other were unlucky. The heavy crossbow actually passed through the bodies of four people at once, and the wound caused by the heavy crossbow of the forearm could not be cured at all. Even if it did not die at that time, it would not last long.
A series of four Soviet soldiers turned into the water, and the surface was immediately stained with a large piece of red.
"Archer! Save and shoot!"
After the boat arrived nearby, the generals of each ship would no longer need to read the slogans on the flagship and command each one separately.Yu Jian aimed at a small boat and shot over, as heavy as rainstorm.Despite the presence of a giant shield, there were still many soldiers from the North Soviet Army who fell into the water with arrows.
After losing hundreds of people, the Soviet North Army's boat finally had the opportunity to approach the Black Flag Army's ship.
But when they were ready for the rope claws to board the ship, they suddenly rushed out dozens of centipede clippers from behind the big ship.Like a monster crawling fast on the water, it slammed into the boat fleet in northern Jiangsu.
...
...
Fifty sailors can be carried on the Centipede Clipper, and everyone can paddle.But when fighting on the surface, half of the trained sailor soldiers will participate in the battle, and the other half will operate the oars.On each of the centipede clippers, more than two dozen soldiers slaughtered the soldiers on the Soviet army's boat at a medium distance with a convenient crossbow.
The purpose of the Northern Soviet Army is to let the soldiers board the ship to prevent the Black Flag ship from docking, so they do not carry bows and arrows at all. At this time, they are simply the living targets of the Black Flag soldiers.The Centipede Clipper passed through the fleet of the Northern Soviet Army, and even the crossbows kept stirring. One after another, the soldiers of the Northern Soviet Army wailed and fell down. Some people were planted into the water, and they were quickly washed down by the river.
The gap in equipment, the gap in training level, and the gap in combat experience make the battle on the water not a battle at all, but a massacre.
"Let the archers line up on the shore!"
Mr. Xishan's face was a bit ugly: "We don't know the Black Flag Army at all. We never knew that the Black Flag Army had such a well-trained sailor. Now we can only wait until the Black Flag Army comes to attack. Control. Blow the corner and let the boat withdraw! "
The soldiers of the Northern Soviet Army quickly blew the horn, and the soldiers on the boat could not help but retreat immediately. When they heard the signal, they immediately turned their bows. There was still a little courage to fight.
At this moment, Du Dingbei's eyes stood on the shore.
"Drumming, attack!"
As the drums sounded, countless centipede clippers pushed out of the shore.The soldiers pushed the boat into the river and ran down the river before climbing up.The countless centipede clippers were suddenly lifted out of the crowd of soldiers on the shore, as if the real countless giant centipedes had fallen into the river.
"not good!"
On the other side, Mr. Xishan's face changed a lot. He thought that the Black Flag Army had to rely on those big ships to cross the river, but he didn't expect the other party to be so cunning as to hide the centipede ship in the crowd on the shore and only lift it out when attacking!As the drums of the Black Flag Army sounded, each centipede boat entered the river channel, and the soldiers slid the oars at the same time, rushing towards the east bank as if flying against the water.
At this time, the fleet of the Northern Soviet Army had not had time to retreat to the shore. Their speed was obviously much slower than that of the Centipede Clipper. The distance of half a channel was quickly caught up by the soldiers of the Black Banner Army. How long the ships on both sides were mixed together.
"How to do how to do!"
Sun Yingdian stood up anxiously.
"Let the archer release the arrow!"
Mr. Xishan shouted loudly.
"No!"
Sun Yingdian shouted: "My people have not come back there!"
"Can't care about that much!"
Mr. Xishan glared at Sun Yingdian fiercely: "Let the soldiers of the Black Flag Army stick behind our ship and return. Once landing, the loss is much greater than this!"
He ignored Sun Yingdian and went straight to grab the flag and wave it.Seeing the order, the northern Soviet archers on the shore were stunned for a while, but they soon began to throw arrows at the boat under the command of the general.
Du Dingbei sat on the bow of a centipede clipper. When he saw that the archer had released the arrow, he immediately turned around and shouted, "Fold down! Don't pay attention! Just rush forward, and row harder!"
Feather arrows shot over and over, and many soldiers shot arrows.Du Dingbei held a shield to block his body, and from time to time looked at how far away from the shore.At this time, he had forgotten the tension and the fear, and all his attention was on the enemy on the other side.
"remember!"
He shouted back and shouted: "Don't rush forward when you get ashore, kill a clearing for the followers!"
...
...
Fang Xie looked at the battle with a thousand eyes and nodded: "It's quite satisfactory, and everything you can do is basically done. It's a bit of a novelty to attract the attention of the enemy with a big ship, and use the Centipede Clipper to cross the river and the enemy's broken troops.
Wu Yi nodded: "It's really unexpected. Zheng Qiu almost attracted the attention of the other side. The enemy's arrow array was almost placed in preparation for the big ship. It was a little late to see the centipede Clipper launching and re-arrange the arrow array. After a while, the loss of crossing the river is minimized, and this teenager is available. "
On the river channel, Zheng Qiu saw that the team led by Du Dingbei had rushed past, and the command ship also approached the east bank.
"Don't distress the feather arrow, shoot the arrow pot to Laozi!"
He drew out the horizontal knife and pointed forward, then roared, and the archer on the big ship immediately poured the feather arrow out.
Opposite bank
Mr. Xishan glanced at the Black Flag fleet and rushed straight towards the shore of the Chinese army. He immediately guessed the enemy ’s purpose. He turned back and said, "Let the three hundred heavy armor behind be ready, wait for me ! Once the enemy landed on the shore, crush me up and drive them into the water! "
At this moment
In the distance, several cavalrymen came on their horses, their faces anxious.
