Seven days later, the Qin army in Qu County divided into four routes, and four huge fleets flying the black dragon flag of Great Qin began to set off from Qu County, each running towards their own goal.

These four fleets set off from Taqu Prefecture and sailed like four black dragons on the sea to the Ryukyu Islands. This giant dragon must carry the momentum of wind and thunder, go straight to the Ryukyus, and take this sea bridge in one fell swoop.

In June, the sea breeze is gentle, and there are no waves on the sea. The first to reach their destination were the 40,000 troops led by Han Shin, and Shuri Island was already in front of them. Through the clairvoyant mirror in his hand, Han Shin had already taken Shuri Island in front of him into his eyes.

Shurijo Castle on Shuriji Island, Shurijo Satsuma Domain. As the most powerful of the four major tribes of the Ryukyus, the Satsuma clan can be said to represent the morale of the Ryukyus. In the battle of Shuri, Han Shin must win. As long as Han Xin wins, it can be said that it will also be a huge boost in morale for the remaining four battlefields.

As the largest tribe in the Ryukyu Islands, the Satsuma clan also had dozens of ships, large and small. It's just that their ships, falling in Han Xin's eyes, are a little funny. Just like that, a ship placed under Daqin's artillery, I'm afraid it won't be able to hold even a round of artillery fire.

"Woo, woo, woo."

Han Shin's fleet suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea, which was simply too eye-catching for the people of the Satsuma Domain. The observatory on Shuri Island spotted them immediately, followed by a low, loud trumpet.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack."

The horn sounded, and the soldiers of the water village on the shore got up in a hurry. These people say they are soldiers, but most of them can't even afford weapons and equipment, and the weapons in their hands can be described as shabby to the extreme.

Pura was a general of the Satsuma Domain, and he was in charge of the seaside camp. The camp was originally designed to defend against pirates, or their inter-Ryukyu tribal battles. Therefore, this camp is not very large, and the strength is only two or three thousand.

Seeing the mighty Qin army fleet heading towards the shore in the sea, Pu Liang was a little panicked. For their small team, this is like killing chickens with knives and bazooka to fight mosquitoes.

"It's the Qin people, the Qin people are going to do something to us."

"Go, go, go and inform the patriarch and the elders." Pu Liang immediately ordered towards the pro-soldiers.

Looking at the sea, under the morning glow, the fleet of the Qin army was extremely eye-catching. This huge fleet advanced towards Shuri Island in an offensive posture, and the Qin army's offensive intentions were obvious.

"General Pu, what should I do?" The general of the Satsuma clan asked in a trembling voice.

There are only two or three thousand soldiers of the Satsuma clan on the shore, and looking at the size of the Qin fleet in the sea, I am afraid that there are only tens of thousands. Then look at the fleets of the two sides, the ships of the Qin army are simply behemoths for the people of the Satsuma Domain.

The indigenous ships of the Satsuma clan basically have no long-range firepower, and the only long-range firepower is their bows and arrows that can't shoot far. And there are basically two ways for them to fight naval warfare. One is that after the ship arrives, climb onto the enemy's ship by climbing, and then engage in close combat. The second is to dive underwater and scuttle the boat.

Looking at the dozens of ships on his shore, looking at the fleet of the Qin army, this is simply the gap between Mr. Guo and Mr. Yao, and if you want to climb up to the battleships of the Qin army, it is basically no less difficult than attacking the city wall. Another kind of ship-digging was also ineffective for the Qin army. Let's not talk about whether you can chisel through such a thick bottom, even if they are lucky enough to chisel through, the warships of the former army all have water compartments. Even if the bottom cabin is chiseled, it is nothing more than slowing down the speed of the ship.

Through a series of analyses, Pu Liang soon understood that he would definitely not be able to fight now. In other words, naval battles cannot be fought, and according to the current gap between the two sides on ships, it is only afraid that a hard fight will not be a war, but a going to the sea to feed the fish.

Here, the Qin fleet has begun to slowly unfold the queue. The gun emplacements of the Qin ships were all installed on the flanks, so when they were about to fire, the Qin army used the flanks to respond to the enemy. The slow Qin army unfolded a battle formation, and the long snake formation was across the sea.

"Ready."

"Reload."

"Launch." With the waving of the command flag in the hands of the soldiers on the watchtower on the flagship, the Qin artillery began to act intensively.

"Boom, boom, boom."

"Boom, boom, boom."

The guns on the Qin battleships roared, huge cannonballs flew out of the barrels, and one after another black cannonballs shot towards the shore.

"Bang, bang, bang."

"Bang, bang, bang."

Most of the shells in the first round of test firing fell into the sea, but a small number of shells also landed on the shore. The loud explosion frightened the Satsuma soldiers on the shore, and even though only a few unlucky ones were hit by the cannons, it still made the soldiers of the Satsuma clan disheartened.

"General Puliang, what should I do, we people are just afraid that we can't stop the Qin army?" There was a partial general of the Satsuma Domain, and his legs were trembling at this time, Qin Jun's attack method was something they had never encountered before.

Pu Liang was also frightened, where had he fought such a battle, and where had he ever seen such a fight. Compared with the current battles of the Qin army, the battles they fought before were like children playing at home.

However, it is not an ordinary person for Puliang to be able to lead an army alone. Although he panicked, he quickly calmed down. Looking at the strength of the enemy and our side, he knew in his heart that he could not fight now, not only could he not fight, but he must also hold the shore without fighting.

Naval battles cannot be fought, and if there is a naval battle, no matter how many people go to the sea, it will be reclamation. can only wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and then go to the woods to hide from the Qin army. Only in this way did they have a slight chance of victory in the Satsuma Domain.

However, the biggest problem now is how to prevent the Qin army from going ashore and how to delay it until reinforcements arrive. As for the two or three thousand crooked melons and cracked dates under his command, he was afraid that he would be broken up by touching the Qin army. In this way, there is no way to stop the Qin army.

Suddenly, Pu Liang stared at the dozens of small boats on the shore, and compared to the fleet of the Qin army, they could only be regarded as small boats.

"Inform the soldiers, set fire to the ship." Pu Liang said categorically.

"What?"

"General Pu, burn the ship, this is all the ships of our Satsuma Domain?" The general said incredulously.

Those dozens of ships were all ships owned by the Satsuma Domain, and they were used for war, fishing, and even occasional cameos as pirates and robberies of merchant ships. For people like them who live on the island, the boat is like a leg. If you burn the ship, you will break your own legs.

However, at this time, Pu Liang had no choice. Burning the ship is already the last and only way, burning the ship, at least until the fire is burned out, the Qin army will not be able to get close to the shore.
