Chapter 2867 Baekje Barbarians who dare not fight and retreat
Directly ahead, in the depths of the mouth of the Baijiang River with shoals on both sides, the light boats emitting flames and thick smoke rushed in quickly.
The cruise ships in front, which had been waiting for a long time, seemed to be shaken slightly, and then, streams of gunpowder smoke mixed with the spitting of flames, like evil dragons roaring on the sea.
Behind the Japanese battleship group, the Datang Navy task force quickly approached, drawing a very beautiful arc on the sea, and then puffs of gunpowder smoke spewed out from the side of the ship, covering the sea...
The fire ships in front were like fallen leaves in the rapids and waves, swaying unsteadily, some slowly stopping, and some simply sinking to the bottom of the sea.
There are still many fire ships struggling and desperately continuing to move forward, but in the process.
As those giant Tang ships spewed fire, they either exploded on the spot, or their speed became slower and slower, stopped on the sea, and continued to burn themselves.
The artillery fire from the seven three-masted giant ships at the rear, which were agile and powerful, immediately overwhelmed the Japanese naval fleet.
The Japanese fleet, which was originally squeezing into the Baijiang estuary in unison, instantly seemed to have jumped into a weasel's chicken farm and exploded directly.
And from Wang Fangyi's perspective, it looked like he had jumped into a chicken farm with a group of weasels.
The explosive shells, which had a range of more than two miles, easily passed over the Japanese warships on the periphery, flew into the battleship group, and exploded.
It was like a ball of daytime fireworks blooming among the floating grass.
The Crown Prince, the eldest brother of Zhongda, stood blankly on the deck. In front of him, the black holes of those huge ships were still spewing out tubes of blazing flames and smoke.
Huge explosions occurred one after another among the battleships ahead, and the originally neat fleet formation was thrown into chaos.
In the rear, there were also very dense explosions, which panicked the frightened Japanese soldiers.
One after another, warships scuttled left and right on the sea like headless flies, completely turning into a mess.
The sailors of the Japanese navy, as well as the Japanese soldiers who came by boat, had no idea what to do at this moment.
The huge roar, like thunder in the clear sky, even made them unable to calm down and think.
Li Ji looked at the Japanese navy, which was already in chaos under the ravages of artillery after releasing the first wave of fire ships, with a trace of pride on his face.
At this time, a general eagerly approached Li Ji and urged him.
"Commander, let's attack, be careful these Japanese are trying to escape."
"Why are you so anxious?" Li Ji rolled his eyes angrily at this reckless man who only knew how to use a white knife to go in and a red knife to go out.
"No matter what, we have to fire ten or twenty rounds, wait until the Japanese lose the power to resist, and then attack again, then we can decide on a battle."
"Now you rush out. Our artillery can't recognize who is the Japanese or who is Wu Ben of the Tang Dynasty."
"The commander-in-chief taught me that, then, let's wait a little longer..."
The generals looked at each other in frustration. They had no choice. They had no artillery on their warships. If they wanted to fight the Japanese, they had no choice but to rush forward and fight in hand-to-hand combat.
Silla's warships and those of the Tang task force without artillery were currently blocking the waterway south of the Baijiang estuary.
Jin Yuxin and a group of Silla soldiers were all stuck on the deck like wooden stakes, with their mouths grinning and their eyes bulging.
With a look of fear on his face, he looked at the seven Tang Dynasty giant ships, calmly and calmly spraying blazing flames and gunpowder smoke around the Japanese warships.
I also saw that the Japanese warships were in a mess, with flames blazing in the end, which contrasted with the sunset that was gradually taking shape over there...
#####
The moment Baekje Navy Commander Kunimitsu Junyong heard the noise coming from the distance, he had already raised his arms and roared wildly.
In an instant, the remaining Baekje navy looked up to the sky like hungry wolves and roared. Just when they were about to launch an attack, they heard the dense and numb roar.
.
Guoguang Junyong's face froze, but soon he gritted his teeth and roared sternly.
"Brothers, don't be afraid. Their warships that can spit fire and iron pellets must be entangled by our allies. If we kill them, we will..."
Before he finished speaking, there was another roaring sound coming from farther away, which was even denser than before...
The arm that Guoguang Junyong raised could not be swung down for a long time. At this moment, a general approached Guoguang Junyong and said anxiously.
"General, how do you feel, General? I seem to have heard that there are terrifying weapons from the Tang Dynasty further away."
"Yes, General. The last general also heard it. How about we wait a little longer?"
"Yes, yes, the general saw that the Tang army's formation was motionless, so he might be cheating. How about we stabilize it first?"
Guoguang Junyong looked at these guys who were greedy for life and feared death with pain, but when he thought of those terrifying iron pellets that could cut people into two pieces, like meteor hammers, and the iron pellets that would explode.
Guoguang Junyong swallowed Xingzi and snorted coldly. "Forget it, just wait."
"The general is wise." All the Baekje generals secretly breathed a sigh of relief. There were thousands of Japanese warships. They fought first, and then rushed out to claim their merits after winning their side.
If more than a thousand warships were defeated by the Tang army, haha... wait until the news of the defeat reaches the royal capital Sixian.
I believe that the wise and wise King Yi Ci will also understand that it is not that he and others did not work hard, but that the Tang Dynasty navy was too powerful.
The sky gradually changed from white clouds to red clouds, but the Tang Dynasty Navy blocking troops on the opposite side did not move at all.
But the problem is that Junyong Kunimitsu and others, who were already standing on the deck with their legs numb, had clearly heard the roaring sound and their scalps were still numb.
Just when Kunimitsu Junyong was hesitating whether he should do something instead of just staring blankly like this.
Suddenly, I heard the fierce sound of war drums in the distance, as well as the roars of thousands of Tang soldiers.
Guoguang Junyong still remembers the sound of victory. It seemed to be the favorite slogan of Tang soldiers when they launched an attack or won a complete victory.
At this time, on the river bank, a horse was riding from west to east. It was a reconnaissance horse sent out to observe the battle between the two armies, and it finally came back.
He rushed to the river bank and waved his hands from side to side desperately. When they saw this previously agreed gesture, the faces of Guoguang Junyong and the Baekje generals gradually turned pale.
"Send the order to all the ships to retreat immediately! The water strongholds retreating to the rear are stunned and do nothing, why don't they retreat quickly?"
Seeing the Baekje Navy retreating hastily, those Tang Navy officers who were responsible for blocking the Baekje Navy only to find themselves lonely, could only helplessly smile bitterly.
"Damn it, these Baekje barbarians made our brothers wait in vain..."
