Chapter 1904 Land battle, you can't do it; water battle, you can't do it
Seeing a large number of fleets of the Qi Navy spread out with terrifying force on the river, they sailed apart from the surging waves and rushed towards the water city on the north bank. They were guarding the company camp that stretched for more than ten miles to the north of the Yalu River.
The soldiers of the Jin Army screamed and ran around to tell each other. Before they even confronted the Qi Army, which launched a full-scale landing operation, many soldiers already showed fear and fear in their eyes.
Until the military brigades on the waterways of Bao, Ding, Xuanzhou, and even Pi Island on the south bank of the Yalu River openly revolted and began to conduct frequent raids on the Jin Kingdom's large areas of coastal territory in eastern Liaoning and western Liaoning. Of course, the Jin Kingdom would not sit idly by.
Li Jun tried to eradicate the hidden dangers of the enemy's rampaging rampage under his nose as soon as possible. However, after several attempts to cross the river to conquer, the Jin army, which was not good at water warfare, faced Li Jun's dispatch and command, and had a large number, sophisticated equipment, and large scale
The Jinghai, Hengjiang, Qianlong, Fubo, Baihe and other navies, which were huge and even equipped with firearms and artillery, could only be beaten to death as soon as they met on the rivers and seas.
Several groups of hastily recruited naval forces were killed and defeated. Forcibly crossing the river was really not worth the loss, so the Jin Kingdom had no choice but to take a defensive position. It set up stockades, camps, and forts stretching for more than ten miles on the north bank of the Yalu River in an attempt to
A river defense line was set up on land to prevent a large number of Qi troops from the south of the Yalu River from rushing ashore.
The scale of the fleet that appeared on the river today is really too huge. It seems that all the naval forces in the docks of Pi Island, Baozhou and other ports have been mobilized. A discerning person can tell at a glance that this is definitely not a fleet facing the other side.
The army patrols the river on a daily basis, but it is about to launch a full-scale fierce attack, seize the north of the Yalu River, and then continuously transport the Mabu troops to the deep inland of Liaodong, and go straight to the heart of the Jin Kingdom!
Anyone who has witnessed the extravagant and powerful Jin Army troops commanded and dispatched by Li Jun is still frightened, and now even more so when they see such a large Qi Dynasty navy on the Yalu River rushing towards them with overwhelming momentum.
How can you not be frightened?
Before the battle, there was a sign of collapse. Looking into the distance, the outlines of the Qi army's fleet and ships became more and more clear in the eyes, and the size of the ships became larger and larger. Many Jin army guards turned pale and screamed in panic.
Nowadays, they are fighting desperately on land. When it comes to the heroes of the Xiao, Tang and Qi dynasties, many Jin army generals are famous for their expressions, let alone this imprisoned water battle along the river!?
However, soon some Jurchen generals stepped forward and slashed with their swords, knocking down the few soldiers of the Jin Army who were gradually retreating amid the crowding and pushing. "We are all stationed at Zhen Sheng, who dares to take a step back?"
, then kill them on the spot!" Someone in the company camp who was on duty to supervise the battle fiercely and fiercely shouted intimidatingly, and then immediately urged a large number of sailors and boatmen who had been detained to rush to the riverside.
After all, just like the Jurchen tribes who live and breed in the white mountains and black waters, they were originally a fishing and hunting people, and some other subordinate ethnic groups also relied on water to make a living. However, it was earlier than Xiao Tang when he was escorting Mizhou.
If you want to build a maritime ship and prepare warships, you have master shipbuilders such as Meng Kang and Ye Chun to supervise the work. After many years of process, you can teach the navy under your command how to prepare them by purchasing, building and seizing them.
The most advanced and sophisticated warships of this era. In addition, there are Li Jun, the Three Ruan Heroes, Zhejiang Silong, Zhang Shun, Zhang Rong, Li Bao... and many other first-class water warfare experts, each showing his abilities.
, cultivated and grown, but for the Jin Army, how could it compete with the navy of the Qi Dynasty due to the lack of naval warfare generals, the lack of shipbuilders and shipbuilders, and the backwardness of all types of naval warfare ships?
What's more, it had the ability to build cross-sea ships, and the raiding range could reach Goryeo. The Jurchen tribe in a corner of Japan initially invaded Liaodong, and Xiao Tang, who frightened Goryeo, had eliminated them all in order to avoid future troubles. In the official history, the Jin Dynasty relied heavily on it, and it also Xu Wen, the navy general "Xu Dadao" who had defeated the famous naval commander Li Bao of the Song Army, changed his position and became an official in the Qi Dynasty. Li Jun was in charge of the naval counselor, the commander of the capital navy, and the commander of the Fubo navy chamber. The envoy was also the commander-in-chief of the fleet that comprehensively invaded the territory under the rule of the Jin Kingdom in the north of the Yalu River... The other naval forces that are still attached to the Jin army as a last resort were just using simple boats to feed themselves on fishing in Liaodong. The idle people outside the customs can only sail boats and swim on the water. How can they be of any use when facing a water war of this scale?
However, for the Jin Army generals on the north bank of the Yalu River who supervise the border defense, it is not just that there are no generals in Sichuan, and Liao Hua is the vanguard, but that there are no tigers in water warfare, and hozens are used as cannon fodder... The Jurchens have no sense of water warfare and coastal defense at all. The general supervising the war could only force the forcibly recruited boatmen and sailors to rush towards the numerous rafts and small boats lined up on the north shore. Although there were many ships in dense rows, there were less than ten warships among them that could withstand strong winds and waves. .....
Most of the Jurchen generals who boarded the ships to supervise the sailors were thinking of certain death. Even if the generals could not stop those Qi naval vessels that were several feet high, they could at least form a line of defense on the river to intercept those Qi naval vessels. It’s better to use clippers and small boats to intercept the enemy’s first landing ship as much as possible!
However, seeing a large number of ships approaching in a very messy formation on the opposite side, the sailors on the flying knifefish boats, centipede speedboats and other speedboats that took the lead from the Qi Navy immediately began to get busy. Although it was a gang-hopping battle. Fighting on a bumpy ship, the masters of each navy who are skilled in water are certainly not afraid of the Jin Army generals, but now they can teach how to make full use of the advantages of the weapons on the ship in water warfare, first using crossbows, then firearms, and also Afterwards, a large number of large ships were equipped with catapults and artillery. How many of the remaining Jin soldiers were still able to fight on ships that they were also not good at?
On one of the Qi navy's boats that was leading the way to the north shore, Wang Dingliu, the living master, was directing the sailors on the boat to work hard to move the wooden oars, while looking at the opposite side through the open cowhide gap in front. The Jin army hastily faced the movement of the navy. Compared with when he surrendered to Xiao Tang and gathered together for justice, Wang Dingliu's expression was very calm at this time, compared with the green and awkward look on his face when he surrendered to Xiao Tang to join the cause of justice. He has the air of a general, but his brows clearly have some of the composure and stability of a general leading an army.
Dividing waves and cutting off waves, the speed of the fast boat became faster and faster. While it was sailing upstream on the river, the boat undulated violently and at the same time, river water splashed on his face from time to time. This made Wang Dingliu He became more and more calm and sober, and he was always paying attention to the change in the distance between his leading Clippers and the group of Golden Army boats in front. Suddenly, he shouted sharply: "God's Arm Bow, release!"
As Wang Dingliu gave the order, it was not just the speedboat he was riding on. There was a fierce crossbow on the rows of boats rushing on the river through the gap in the cooked cowhide in front. After the machine was triggered, the sound of the arrows piercing the air was suddenly heard, and countless arrows were fired at the various Jin army ships on the opposite side.
The crossbow bolts fired by the God's Arm Bow were not only accurate and fierce, but also had powerful penetrating power. The soldiers on the opposite Jin Army ship suddenly burst into layers of blood mist, and fell down in an instant. Every ship in line was at that time
Above, although the few remaining people were lucky enough to survive, they could not help but scream and howl. They were originally frightened and forced to board the ship to fight against the enemy. As soon as they suffered such a violent attack
How long can you hold on despite being attacked by crossbow arrows!?
What's more, when Wang Dingliu took the lead in ordering the clippers lined up on the river to use the divine arm bow, on a clipper ship not far behind him, there were also navy generals who immediately took action.
He stood up and whistled at first, then quickly took off his clothes and armor to reveal his white flesh, and then jumped straight into the river. Around him, there were many good sailors on the speedboat who imitated the same example, and they continued to do so.
