Hariwan had no choice about the current situation. As the saying goes, if you don't seek death, you won't die. At this moment, there is nothing else he can do except pray to heaven.
"His Majesty has taken away most of the elite troops on his journey north this time. The white sands of the Imperial Capital Building are empty. It doesn't take too much. As long as the enemy sends a surprise force over the Hindu Kush Mountains, it will be devastating to that place. I suggest that they be sent immediately.
Fifty thousand soldiers and horses marched north to support Lou Baisha."
Although all they can do is pray to heaven, there are also things they can do.
"Fifty thousand people are too many. Although there is a natural chasm like the Ganges River, we must be prepared. If Fabrat is defeated by the enemy and draws away too many soldiers and horses, our defense line will become empty.
, let’s do this, with you as the commander-in-chief, lead 20,000 troops and horses to go north immediately to support Lou Baisha.”
Harrivan glanced at Enter, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes. It seemed like everything was calm here now. If something went wrong, it might be a stormy sea, with overwhelming force. As a general of the empire, he naturally couldn't leave. At this moment,
We can only let Enter take the opportunity to go north, so that everyone can be safe.
"I'm leaving, what should I do here?"
Enter is so smart, he immediately understood the other party's good intentions, but the current situation is like this, the building is empty, and if he doesn't send troops to support, there will be no troops to support him elsewhere.
"I'm fine here, don't worry."
Harriwan smiled slightly and waved his hand to the other party, indicating that he could leave with peace of mind and don't worry about this place.
"Enter will bid farewell to the general here."
Now that the opponent has made his decision, all he can do is protect Lou Baisha and not give the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of it.
"Um."
Enter left, and soon the 20,000 soldiers and horses were assembled. Under the leadership of the opponent, they left Heldvar and ran towards Lou Baisha.
"Go down and order the boats to dispatch, and pretend to cross the river to attack."
Jia Xu glanced at the river and directly ordered the soldiers to get on the boat and launch a feint attack on the other side.
"Sir, the warships haven't been assembled yet. If we send out small boats to launch a feint attack, aren't we asking the soldiers to die?"
Hearing Jia Xu's order, Ma Chao on the side couldn't help but frowned. Anyway, his warship was already being assembled. If he would send people out now, wouldn't it be a proper tribute to the opponent?
"I'm afraid that we are just asking people to die to let the other side know our determination to cross the river. No one will want to refuse the military exploits obtained. In this case, they will be happy to kill us once we are dispatched. After a few days of this repeating, the enemy will definitely relax their vigilance.
, when the warships are assembled, we can wipe them all out."
Jia Xu glanced at Ma Chao, he just wanted to let people die. As the saying goes, lust can make people die before they go crazy. If they don't provoke the opponent now, if he wants to fight decisively, wouldn't it be wrong if the main force of the opponent doesn't come?
It's over,
They only have one chance to make a sneak attack. If they miss this opportunity, any attempt to annihilate the enemy's navy will be like a mirror, a flower in the water, and a moon in the water.
"Then we can't let our people die like this."
Although there was nothing wrong with what Jia Xu said, he still couldn't bear to see his own men die under the opponent's navy.
"Don't worry, the people I have arranged are all people who are good at water. I have also transferred elites from the Jingzhou Navy. The soldiers I have just recruited from Kushan are also carrying them. As long as things go wrong, those navy soldiers will directly
Jump into the water and you will definitely escape."
Jia Xu looked at Ma Chao. He knew that his generals would find it difficult to accept sending soldiers to die, so he made an alternative. Except for the man who was driving the boat, which was his own elite navy, the soldiers on the boat were all Kushan soldiers recruited.
horse.
"If that's the case, then there's no problem."
Hearing Jia Xu's explanation, Ma Chao had nothing to say. As long as the person who died was not a Chinese sergeant, he would not frown no matter how many others died. Moreover, these people did not die by their hands, but by the same people.
It's the hand of Guishuang. I can't blame myself.
"Well, beat the drums and mobilize the whole army."
Following Jia Xu's order, the drums that had been prepared for a long time thundered, and the shocking sound of the drums resounded throughout Tianyu. Countless boats rushed out of the water village and rushed towards the opposite side of the Ganges River.
"The Chinese are attacking. The Chinese are attacking. Beat the drums to notify the water village and ask the navy to dispatch. In addition, let the garrison troops on the shore prepare to be careful of the enemy's small-scale sneaking in."
Seeing the Chinese troops dispatched to the water village, the boats patrolling the riverbank immediately conveyed the news.
"Dong dong dong."
When the news reached the water village, the war drums beat instantly, and the naval forces in the water village rushed out of the water village immediately and attacked the Chinese boat group.
The ships of both sides began to fight on the Ganges River. There were many small boats on the Chinese side, but the Kushans on the opposite side relied on the superiority of their warships to defeat the Chinese side. Each small boat was destroyed by the opponent in vain.
Seeing the boat hull floating on the river and the corpse floating on it, Jia Xu also nodded.
"Mingjin withdraws the troops."
"promise."
"Dang Dang Dang."
The clear sound of ringing gold resounded through the sky. Upon hearing this sound, the Chinese army, which was fighting fiercely with the Kushan warships, immediately gave up the fight and began to retreat.
"Chase."
Seeing the Chinese retreating, a gleam flashed in Farbrat's eyes. The Ganges is his own world. He can come and leave as he pleases. It's not that easy.
Seeing Fabrat's flag, the Kushan Navy immediately mobilized and formed a formation to pursue the retreating Chinese fleet.
"Tell the trebuchets on the shore to prepare. As long as they dare to enter the shooting range, I will sink them."
Seeing that the enemy's navy dared to pursue him, I really didn't know how the word "death" was written.
"Your Majesty has ordered us to prepare the trebuchets on the shore."
Jia Xu's order was immediately sent down, and the defense forces on the shore were also activated instantly. One after another trebuchets were loaded with shotguns. As long as the enemy dared to enter his attack range, he would let the opponent know what inferno was.
Both sides are chasing each other, performing life-and-death speed on the river. Looking around, thousands of sails are racing and thousands of valleys are competing for the current.
"Trebuchet, aim and wait until they take another step."
Seeing that the enemy had entered his designed range, the captain in charge of the trebuchets directly ordered the trebuchets to aim separately and wait until the opponent was further ahead before firing.
"General, we can't move forward any further."
As time progressed, the soldiers on the flagship looked at the river bank in front of them and spoke directly to Fabrat.
"Send a semaphore and the entire army will retreat."
Fabrat also knows how powerful the Chinese trebuchets are. In the current situation, he doesn't dare to mess around. If he is attacked by the opponent's trebuchets, the gain will outweigh the losses.
Soon the semaphore on the flagship was played. When the warships saw the semaphore on the flagship, they immediately began to turn around and retreat backwards.
"Every unit launches its own missiles, let me smash them."
Seeing the enemy begin to retreat, Captain Trebuchet couldn't help but smile. Now he was thinking of running away, but it was too late.
"Peng."
"Peng."
"Peng."
The trebuchets were launched instantly, and the scattered bullets that covered the sky floated towards the Ganges like dark clouds.
"Shield bearer, defense."
"Every unit retreats."
"Speed up, speed up."
Seeing the shotguns falling from the sky, Farbrat got directly into the cabin. There was no need for him to wait here to be hit by shotguns, right?
The scattered bullets fell, like a heavy rain tilting, which made the Kushan navy somewhat doubtful about life. The larger ship was full of gaps, and the smaller ship was directly damaged and leaked in all directions, and slowly sank into the Ganges River.
After two waves of trebuchet attacks, the Kushan warships suffered considerable losses, but most of them were small ships. The slightly larger ones were only injured, which had no impact on the subsequent battle situation at all.
"Check the damage of each ship, the patrol boat continues patrolling, and the navy returns to the water village for repairs. It's bad luck."
After escaping the attack range of the Chinese trebuchets, Fabrat couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the Chinese coastline in the distance.
Although I can crush the opponent's warships on the river, it is too difficult to kill them. Now I can only maintain this unbeatable battle situation.
"The whole army rests and we will fight again tomorrow."
Seeing the enemy retreating, Jia Xu turned around and returned to the military camp, and the sergeants from all departments also returned to rest.
Early in the morning of the next day, the Chinese fleet set off again and launched a death charge to the opposite side. The Kushan Navy on the opposite side also learned the wiser thing this time and only fought in the center of the Ganges River. After defeating the Chinese Navy, they did not pursue it and directly
Return to the water village.
As time went by, the warships assembled deep in the camp gradually took shape.
In four days, dozens of Mengchong and three battleships have been assembled, and heavy equipment such as trebuchets and city-defending crossbows have also been moved to the battleships.
"Sir, all the Mengchong battleships have been assembled and all combat equipment has been transferred. They are ready for combat."
The craftsman in charge of assembly came to Jia Xu and reported the current situation to him.
"Okay, move all the fire materials that have been prepared to the boat. I will defeat the Kushan Navy in one fell swoop."
Now that everything is ready, Jia Xu has nothing to say. After waiting for such a long time, it is time to let the opponent know how powerful Hua Xia is.
"promise."
Jia Xu's order was conveyed, and the entire Huaxia camp was instantly mobilized. The fire materials that had been prepared were loaded onto the small boats. Then, with the fire boat as the vanguard, countless ships were behind the fire boat, ready to attack at any time.
"The Chinese attack again and report to General Fabrat immediately."
The patrol boat discovered the Chinese army's actions and directly reported the news to Hou Fablatt.
After receiving the news, the Kushan navy once again came out in full force, assembled the fleet and began to snipe the Chinese navy.
"The small boat goes first, the fire boat follows, charge."
Seeing the enemy's navy dispatched, the captain who was in charge of directing the battle showed a sneer on his lips, and directly ordered the small boat to move forward to attract firepower, and the fire boat to follow behind to prepare for the charge.
The small boat in the front row directly launched a suicide attack and attacked the Kushan navy, while the navy on the opposite side maintained a group form and sniped at the oncoming Chinese fleet.
"Light the fire boat and hit it."
Seeing a melee in the front row, Colonel I directly ordered the fire boat to be set off and attack the enemy.
"call."
"call."
"call."
The curtains on the fire boats were lifted, and then ignited with torches. They instantly turned into fire boats and rushed towards the Kushan Navy along the water.
"Outer formation, protect the main battleships inside and don't let the other side rush in."
Seeing that the enemy actually used fire boats to attack, Fabrat couldn't help but feel contempt. To him, these tricks were just childish. The reason why he didn't let the fleet disperse to snipe the Chinese boats was to prevent the opponent from doing this.
Yes, now I see that I was indeed right.
With the flags flying, the Kushan navy immediately began to change its formation. The broken boats escorted the outer circle to block the Chinese fire ships. The main warships used bows and arrows in the middle to fire out at the Chinese warships outside.
"Peng,"
"Peng."
"Peng."
The fire boat directly hit the warships outside the Kushan Navy and ignited a huge fire.
"Push the ignited warship out with the racket. The warship inside is on top, and you must not let the opponent's fire ship rush in."
Fabrat stood on the flagship, looking at the surrounding situation, and calmly commanded the fleet to change its formation to block the enemy's attack.
