"Get closer, jump off the ship and attack!" After all, the distance between the two sides was very close. Even if the Han Dynasty bucked the trend and turned Kushan's great advantage into a big disadvantage, it was inevitable that Kushan's ships would move closer to them. Therefore,
When he got closer, Zhu Kasyapa gave the order regardless.
They have lost the long-range attack, but there is still hope for a comeback. They still have an advantage in close combat. Even if the momentum is temporarily lost to the Han army, they rely on the small army combat bonus brought by their God and Buddha visualization system.
It has an absolute advantage in jumping ship battles.
At the same time, Arvind also approached the Han army's ship. At this time, he even used the secret skills of the ship to forcefully release all the remaining cloud gas reserves, and forcibly pulled the Han army's warship into the battlefield. In an instant, he originally
The Han naval gun, which showed its great power, fell directly into the category of normal large ballistae in terms of power.
When he saw the Han army's flagship fort turning towards his flagship, Arvind almost felt his scalp numb. If there was a possibility of evading before, now he couldn't evade at all.
It was too close. Even if the Han gunner slipped and missed, such a close distance would still be enough to sink his half-defunct flagship. But at this time, Arvind had no choice but to fire his gun.
After activating the secret technique of large-scale ships, the clear water light extended directly from the battleship, and the crew members under their command also rushed towards the Han army flagship under the leadership of their respective commanders.
The next moment, the Han army fired. There was no slippage, and it hit the front. But the power stunned Arvind. It was not that the power was too big, but that it was too small. It only blew up the middle cabin, and with the previous
The power, if hit at that position, the ship would probably be broken in half.
Arvind was stunned for a moment. Although he did not understand the reason, no matter what the reason was, it was not important to Arvind. This was an opportunity!
"Everyone, follow me and charge!" Arvind roared with his gun in hand, jumped onto the light path paved by the ship's secret technique, and rushed towards the Han army's ship.
At the same time, after Kushan Yunqi actually came into contact with the Han army, the Han army's naval guns relied on the super-limited strike capability brought by the etching of heaven and earth essence, and were instantly reduced to about the same power as Kushan's ballistae. At most, it was the same.
Slightly better in size.
Zhu Jiayebo also discovered this situation almost at the same time, and was immediately overjoyed, "God help me, the Han army's naval guns have failed, everyone will jump ship with me to attack!"
This time, Zhu Jiayebo didn't even care about the safety of his own warship, and directly collided with the Han army's large ship. Even if there was no reserve of cloud energy, when the two sides really came into contact, the soldiers' own cloud energy gradually took effect.
, the individual strength of both sides began to decline rapidly!
"Abandon the ballista attack, the archery team is free to counterattack!" The deputy hurriedly picked him up and shot a few concentrated potions made of unknown materials. Lu Fan, who clearly had half his life left, could at least stand up and give command.
At the same time, Zhu Zhi, whose spine was nearly broken by the waves and suffered internal injuries all over his body, was almost dead. He was barely alive and well with the help of the injections his guards took out from the warehouse and a few poisons used to stimulate the contraction of the heart.
The personal guards rushed towards Arvind.
As for Dong Xi's side, it is relatively better. After all, he is young and has a solid foundation. He was not as miserable as Zhu Zhi before. With the help of internal Qi separated injections and some overdrafting secret medicines, he has restored his peak combat effectiveness and improved his performance.
He grabbed the broadsword and rushed in the direction of Zhu Kasyapa.
Lu Fan's command was very timely. After the naval gun lost the super powerful strike that could destroy the ship, it was not as effective as the archery team. At least in terms of firing rate and hit rate, the archery team from Jiangdong was among the top four.
The best in the empire.
"Fire arrows!" As Lu Fan once again took over the command of the defense line, almost all the crew members unloaded their bows and arrows from their shoulders. Different from when Jiangdong Sun Ce was in charge, although Chen Xi could not afford the supply of large ships, bows and arrows were not available in the early days.
We started preparing strategic materials, but there was no shortage at all.
In addition, everyone in Jiangdong can shoot arrows. When Zhou Yu went south, Chen Xi directly equipped each person with a bow and arrow according to the personnel list. Regardless of whether you are a spearman or a sword and shield, each person has a bow and a pot of arrows, so with Lu Fan's shout
Under the order, all the crew members took out their bows and arrows, and followed the experienced veterans to fight back against Kushan.
More than 10,000 arrows were fired. Compared with the hit rate of the previous ballistae, at this distance, even a Jiangdong soldier could hit it. For a while, the Kushan navy that charged towards the Han army encountered huge trouble, but then
The Kushan navy was not willing to be outdone and launched a counterattack.
I have never encountered this kind of routine in long-distance fighting before. Counterattack with bow and arrow. How can Kuishang, who has been the number one in the navy for so many years, not even know this!
"Lancers, sword and shield men organized a first line of defense, and professional archers continued to suppress it!" Lu Fan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Guishang's classic counterattack. Knowing that a battle was inevitable, he immediately ordered again. This kind of training will
This has been done too many times.
However, even after countless trainings, the Jiangdong soldiers, led by middle and low-level generals, were still obviously a little messy when they led the close combat soldiers to counterattack the Kushan navy under long-range cover.
Some habits, such as naturally retreating when encountering an enemy, were still retained. Lu Fan was shocked when he saw this. He actually knew very well that Jiangdong soldiers retreated when encountering an opponent. This was completely the instinct developed by many years of archer training.
It's just that this instinct is simply a devastating blow to the group formation. Whether it is archers, or front-line sword and shield soldiers, or gun and shield soldiers, as long as one person retreats, it will naturally lead a group of people to retreat, and then there will be
It has a direct impact on the stability of the front line.
"Archer team, replace armor-piercing arrows! Shoot quickly!" Lu Fan saw that the Han soldiers who had rushed over were pushed back, and the Kushan soldiers even killed their own warships and immediately ordered with a gloomy look. At this time, he still
What to keep? Whatever is useful is enough!
Following Lu Fan's order, these top archers who had retired from Zhou Yu's own army fired a pot of armor-piercing arrows at a speed of almost five or six rounds per second.
Relying on accurate talent correction and super lethality, the Kushan navy was driven off its own warship in one wave of explosions, but this was just the beginning!
Zhu Zhi looked with cold eyes at the three commanders of the Kushan navy in front of him who were slightly weaker than him. Each leader only had more than a hundred people. However, relying on the visualization of gods and Buddhas and the coordinated performance of the internal forces, each of them could
The fighting power that a person exerts in such small-scale battles is faintly beyond the peak of Qi refining after being suppressed by cloud energy.
However, there were eighty or ninety such characters on the battleships of Zhu Kasyapa and Arvind!
After each person relied on the visualization of gods and Buddhas to communicate with the small group of soldiers who visualized the same gods and Buddhas with him, the strength they exerted under the suppression of cloud energy even faintly exceeded the normal peak of Qi refining.
This is also the reason why Kuishang has absolute confidence in jumping ship battles. When large armies fight on land, it is difficult for them to take advantage of this. The small group visualized by gods and Buddhas allows them to easily lead hundreds of people to coordinate at most.
Combat.
However, when the army is engaged in large-scale operations, hundreds of Qi Condensation Masters who can lead a hundred people to fight independently cannot compare to one Inner Qi Condensation who can command tens of thousands of people to command and coordinate, if not counting any strategies.
In this case, the quality of the men under both sides is the same. If they fight directly on the plain, the latter can beat the people in front of them into pig heads.
But naval warfare is completely different. No matter how big the ship is, it is impossible for a boarding battle on a battleship to involve tens of thousands of people. A batch of hundreds of people is the most normal scale. And this
The scale is the scale at which the visualization system of Kushan gods and Buddhas can exert its greatest effect.
A small group of more than a hundred people supports a leader, and a Qi Refining Chenggang will come out, not to mention those relatively strong Qi Refining Chenggang. With such support, they can faintly exceed the limit of Qi Refining Chenggang. This is also
The reason why Gan Ning and Tai Shi Ci had a very difficult time fighting the Kushan Ship Jumping Battle for the first time.
Zhu Zhi knew this because both Gan Ning and Zhou Yu had said it, but Zhu Zhi's face was still very ugly when faced with this. The opponent only needed the cooperation of the leaders of the three teams to barely hold him back.
There are dozens of commanders left to lead their troops. Can their soldiers really block such an attack?
"Fire arrows!" the centurion of the Han army roared angrily, and the archers behind him were directly covered with arrows and shot at the Kushan soldiers from beside their teammates.
The Han army of a hundred men versus a hundred men really has no advantage. The opponent's soldiers may not be stronger than them, but their cooperation is very tacit, and the strength of each of their commanders is outstanding at the level of the Han army's centurions.
In terms of strength on paper, it is absolutely unbeatable.
However, if the war is compared on paper, what meaning does it have to start? It is true that it cannot be defeated head-on, but the situation of Kushan's close combat is different. The Han army used swords, guns, swords and spears in conjunction with various weapons, especially
Jiangdong's elite archers can coordinate shooting when the enemy and we are taking action, suppressing the performance of the Kushan soldiers to a great extent.
Even if there are accidental injuries due to errors in prediction from time to time, by carrying out assistance shooting within a distance of more than ten steps, these Jiangdong shooters are still 90% sure to kill the enemy with one arrow when we are fighting.
It was also relying on this almost unscientific archery ability that Koto's soldiers were still barely able to hold on even though their strength was completely suppressed.
As for why Kushan's melee soldiers are all close to about ten paces, and the archers don't run away, well, it's because their backs are already on the side of the ship, so they can't run away unless they are willing to jump into the sea, but in naval combat, you can't win by jumping.
