This is the original intention of the design of the Five-Tooth Ship. It uses trebuchets and bed crossbows that are superior to the enemy's mechanical structure and range to strike first, try to clear the enemy's deck armament as much as possible, and then use the high speed of the ship to launch a surprise attack.
Break the enemy's formation.
"Fire arrows!" The Nanchen generals on the Huanglong ship roared in vain, but the violent shaking of the warship had turned any arrows fired into a futile struggle.
Captain Nan Chen seemed to have noticed something, and pointed forward in surprise: "Why are their warships so fast!"
The panicked people on the boat subconsciously looked in the direction of the captain's finger, and saw those huge objects rushing hundreds of feet away in the blink of an eye!
You must know that although Nanchen's Huanglong ship is huge and powerful, its speed on the water is actually very slow. After all, it is not an easy task to rely on manpower and sails to drive such a behemoth, and the guy in front of him looks like this
It's not much smaller than the Huanglong ship, but the bow is more slender, and the hull is bulging. I don't know what the protruding things are on both sides, but even if they are going down the river, their speed shouldn't be so.
Fast, not to mention the wind today is not very strong!
If Li Xingchen were here, he might smile and say, this is the wisdom of industry.
Unfortunately, it was Qiu Zhi who was commanding the flagship to charge forward at this time. He could only use one word to express his feelings at this time.
"kill!"
The sound of the drum seemed to be carrying the wind and clouds, and the Wuya warship crashed directly into the space between the two Nanchen warships with thunderous momentum. Almost at the same time, the bed crossbows on both sides began to roar, and the thick iron arrows rubbed against the river.
The wind was so strong that it seemed like the air was burning.
The arrow penetrated directly through the chest of a Nanchen soldier, followed by the second and third...
At the same time, the racket stick that had been prepared was released, and the heavy wooden pile hit the deck hard, smashing the walls on the deck. There was also a racket stick that directly hit the Huanglong ship on the left.
On the mast of the ship, as the Wuya big ship continued to drive forward, the mast was torn off directly, and the Huanglong ship was suddenly affected, and the side of the ship hit the side and rear of the Wuya big ship.
The two warships trembled violently at the same time, but the experienced soldiers both grabbed hold of the ropes or railings around them.
"Kill!" Qiu Zhi roared and jumped onto the opposite warship without even using a springboard.
The springboards stretched out one after another, and the Shu Han soldiers roared and rushed up.
Another Huanglong ship was also severely damaged, and the equipment on the ship was basically destroyed. When they wanted to deal with the five-toothed ship here in turn, the other two five-toothed ships had already
Quickly approaching, arrows flew from the left and right sides in front, forming a cross.
The Jingzhou navy soldiers on the deck screamed and fell in large numbers, but the two five-toothed ships did not give them any chance to react and moved directly towards them. Because the distance was very close this time, the shots were even closer.
It is directly facing the ship building and is a greeting.
Of course, the ship's building cannot be made of the same heavy wood as the ship's hull. The racket directly hit it and forced the ship's building to collapse.
What's more important is that these five-tooth warships have no intention of taking the Huanglong warship seriously. Although the bed crossbow has been retracted in order to prevent the Nanchen soldiers on the Huanglong warship from destroying it, the trebuchet, which is more difficult to retract,
Just continue to work. After throwing the big stone bombs, there are still more small stone bombs in the net bags, and these stone bombs are thrown towards several buildings and ships not far away, blocking their advancement.
"Push over!" A Nanchen battle leader shouted loudly, and the two five-tooth warships continued downward with this Huanglong warship sandwiched between them!
Apparently the Nanchenlou ships behind were also panicked. Before they could get out of the way, their own Huanglong ship had already crashed into them in a panic!
On the not-so-wide river, there was chaos everywhere!
At this time, the Shuhan navy fleet that had been delayed had already caught up, but they did not directly join the melee. Instead, they took small boats carried on the building ships in batches and calmly shuttled through the gaps between the big ships.
Go directly over these big boats and rush to the Langwei Beach behind!
"Clean up quickly!" Qiu Zhi casually inserted the knife in his hand, not caring about the dripping blood on it.
After all, he is the commander-in-chief of this fleet, so he can just rush in and have fun. Of course, he cannot indulge in fighting.
Now that the deck of the Huanglong ship has almost been cleaned, the rest is left to the rest of the soldiers. He must hurry back to command, because there are more important things to do. It seems that the following fleet has also arrived.
Returning to the flagship deck, the sight in front of him made Qiu Zhi feel an indescribable sense of relief. Large five-toothed ships were cruising across the river, unstoppable. Nanchen relied on the large Huanglong ship to sail across the water.
In front of them, they could only panic and run for their lives.
The burning flames, the roars of the soldiers and the rolling rivers were all scenes that Qiu Zhi, who had been in the army for ten years, had never seen before!
This is such a hearty battle!
The Shuhan navy, which had maintained restraint in the previous Zigui conflict, finally proved itself with this completely crushing battle.
On the river behind them, the sound of drums became more rapid and loud, more warships appeared in sight, and the fleet carrying the main force of Baidi City's land division was about to arrive.
When the main force arrives, it means that the battle is coming to an end.
Qiu Zhi took a deep breath and pointed straight ahead: "Forward!"
The Wuya ship retracted its springboard, and the Nanchen soldiers on the previous Huanglong ship had begun to lay down their weapons in large numbers, not to mention the other two large ships that had lowered their sails. The Wuya ship cut through the waves, chasing those
The soldiers who had already taken the first step towards the river beach in a small boat.
"The bed crossbow is ready!"
"The trebuchet is ready!"
"put!"
Countless arrows and stones passed over the own fleet and hit the river beach.
At this time, on the Wuya ship that was getting closer and closer not far away, Li Xun and Luo Yi subconsciously looked at each other, and Li Xun couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It seems that nothing will happen without us."
The Shu Han Navy had obviously defeated the Nanchen Navy at Langwei Beach, and those more than a thousand Nanchen soldiers on land would have known that they had no other choice unless they were not stupid, unless they were really willing to fight and die for Nanchen.
Qiu Zhi is usually a boss who dares to fight and charge forward. This beautiful battle made Wang Chang feel proud. After all, the navy's retreat in Zigui made him feel that he was a little inferior in front of the land commander.
Ashamed. Wang Chang smiled and said:
"After passing this Langwei Beach, everything has just begun."
Li Xun laughed loudly and said: "Your navy fought brilliantly, we can't lag behind at all!" (To be continued)
