The Goguryeo people who had not given up their defense immediately rushed to the gap with large shields, hoping to prevent Wang Junlin's party from attacking the prison through the gap.
It's a pity that Wang Junlin never thought about sending people to rush in for a close combat immediately, let alone rob the prison city now. The twelve long-range crossbows that had been prepared fired at the gap immediately.
Screams suddenly rang out. The penetrating power of the crossbow was so strong that the large shield in the hand of the Goguryeo was directly shattered. The crossbow arrow, as thick as a short spear, continued to shoot through the two people before stopping.
Without the shield to block them, after the next wave of crossbow arrows were fired, less than a third of the two hundred Goguryeo people in the gap were still alive, and they ran aside in fright.
At this time, the gap was opened and the city gate was wide open, but Wang Junlin still refused to let his officers and soldiers attack the city, and continued to smash the wall with catapults. Each time a section was broken, although the Goguryeo people no longer blocked the gap, the Goguryeo people behind the city wall
Some people will be exposed, and a number of them will be shot to death by long-range crossbows.
After almost the entire southern city wall was knocked down, the Goguryeo people lost another four to five hundred people, and now there are only about a thousand people left. The most important thing is that they have been suppressed and beaten, and they cannot shoot their opponents, and their morale has long been reduced.
Hit rock bottom.
Even at this level, Wang Junlin still prevented anyone from launching an attack and continued to conduct long-range attacks, forcing all the surviving Goguryeo people to retreat into the remaining houses in the middle of the prison city.
Next, using the cover of long-range attacks, Wang Junlin finally ordered an attack, and continuously sent naval officers and soldiers into the prison city to fight on the streets. In order to reduce casualties as much as possible, he also sent out hundreds of security experts.
The battle went smoothly. After half an hour, most of the remaining 1,000 people had been killed. Only a small group of Goguryeo people were left entrenched in the stone prison in the city to resist and refused to surrender. Wang Junlin was too lazy to send anyone to initiate an attack.
They attacked by force, threw clay pots filled with kerosene directly from the broken wall holes, ignited a fire, and burned more than a hundred Goguryeo people alive before ending the war.
In this battle, more than 1,500 Goguryeo people were wiped out and more than 400 people were captured. On Wang Junlin's side, in addition to the 100 people who had stayed on Baengnyeong Island before, another 100 people died in the battle.
The accumulated salary was used as a raft, and the more than 200 sacrificed people were wrapped in white and arranged on the raft, pushed into the sea, and cremated. In the slightly white morning light of the sky, they were drifted into the distance by the wind, like beacons on the sea.
After the burial ceremony at sea, Wang Junlin ordered everyone to rest on the ship and go to the island tomorrow. He also ordered all ships to be vigilant to prevent enemies hiding on the island from setting fire to or damaging the warships.
Wang Junlin put on the bag, tightened the leather rope under his chin, and stared at the fire raft going away. The body would eventually be burned to ashes and scattered into the sea.
Today's two battles, whether it was the naval battle on Dai Mi Island or the battle on Bai Ling Island to attack the prison city, would probably be regarded as great victories by anyone, but Wang Junlin felt that such casualties were a bit heavy.
The reason for thinking this way is mainly because the naval officers and soldiers they lost cannot be replaced, and now that Goguryeo has occupied two islands of the other side under its nose, Yuan Taizuo and his son have formed a life-and-death feud with him, and they will never let it go.
It is conceivable that in the future, it will be normal for the navy on Daomi Island and Baengnyeong Island to dispatch sentry ships and cruise ships. Large-scale conflicts and battles with the Goguryeo navy officers and soldiers will probably occur frequently. If there are hundreds of casualties at every turn, he will
How long can four thousand people hold on? Although Goguryeo is a small country, it still has more than two million people.
At this time, a sea eagle suddenly flew from Dai Mi Island and landed directly on Wang Junlin's ship. Wang Junlin suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, the sea eagle brought new news about Da Mi Island. Yuan Taizu rescued the five thousand Goguryeo soldiers trapped on Da Mi Island very quickly, and sent another five thousand naval troops. At this time, they were almost arriving at Da Mi Island.
Wang Junlin immediately ordered all warships, officers and soldiers to go to Daami Island, leaving no one on Bailing Island.
Because there is no point in keeping people at this time. There are too many people left, there are not enough people to rescue Daami Island, and there are too few people left. If the Goguryeo people send the navy over again, it will be like delivering food to the other party.
Sailing at full strength, Wang Junlin saw the outline and fire of the west coast of Oami Island after more than half an hour.
At this time, a raging fire broke out on Dai Mi Island, burning the eastern sky dark red...
In fact, Wang Junlin did not expect that Yuan Taizuo would send five thousand naval reinforcements so quickly. He guessed that these five thousand people had been prepared and were even in the nearby sea area. Even in Yuan Taizuo's plan, these five thousand people
The thousand men were used to rob and kill Wang Junlin after the 10,000 men he had sent previously defeated Wang Junlin's side.
That's why these five thousand people were able to get the news so quickly and rush to rescue. And judging from the scale of the fire, the battle on Daimi Island was very fierce at this time.
With more than ten miles left, Wang Junlin could already clearly observe the combat situation on Daimi Island.
To the east and south of DaMi Island, Goguryeo troops were besieging the island. The port on the west side of DaMi Island had been occupied by the Goguryeo navy, and several warships were set on fire. However, they did not know that it was their war effort.
The ship was a Goguryeo warship.
The newly arrived Goguryeo naval forces began to attack from the opposite shore of Wugong, while Li Chengkun led the remnants of Goguryeo's enemies deep in Daami Island and began to run towards the port...
In addition, Wang Junlin discovered that the new reinforcements from Goguryeo were less than ten warships with more than 1,000 stone, and they were still no match for them in maritime combat. Moreover, the opponent probably did not expect the reinforcements from Baengnyeong Island to arrive in such a timely manner.
Wang Junlin led fifty warships slowly unfolding on the blue sea, divided into three distinct stepped attack formations, with his large ship of 10,000 stones and four warships of 5,000 stones as the main ones, forming a cone-shaped formation.
, pounced on the Goguryeo naval forces gathered inside and outside Daami Island; the second array was dominated by two 5,000-stone warships and ten 3,000-stone warships, forming two wings spread out.
The Goguryeo naval forces were concentrating their forces and wanted to land from the inside of Wugang. They formed a pincer attack with the Goguryeo people deep in Daami Island on Luo Chunlai's two thousand men on Daami Island. They did not expect that a naval force would suddenly come in.
He came out and attacked behind him, and the speed was so fast that he didn't become alert until he was less than three miles away.
All warships of Wang Junlin's navy are equipped with large oars, and sails are used to borrow wind power for long voyages. When fighting, the sails and oars are used together, and they are as fast as galloping horses.
Three miles of water and less than half a stick of incense arrived. The Goguryeo naval forces crowded at the port of Da Mi Island had no time to adjust their formation and were caught off guard. They didn't even wait for Wang Junlin to bring his men to kill them.
There was even more chaos. Narrow waterways formed in the inner and outer harbors at the headland, and several ships of their own collided with each other, creating a mess.
