406, New Battles (18)

The sudden appearance of the Tiandao military naval camp caught the officers and sailors by surprise, and the overwhelming arrows were shot at the official ships, and several officers and soldiers immediately fired arrows, and at the same time, because most of the arrows were wrapped in tarpaulins and ignited, these rockets nailed the official ship and immediately burned the deck and cabin.

Liu Tuanlian was eager to capture the dozens of Heavenly Dao Army soldiers, and he had been standing on the bow of a warship in front of him, but he was directly shot by the overwhelming rocket, and was almost shot into a hedgehog and fell into the water and lost his trace, and he definitely couldn't live.

The commander died suddenly, and the officers and soldiers were in chaos immediately, but some ordinary officers also began to hurriedly organize archers to counterattack, but the bows they used were all ordinary longbows, and the range was not even half of the Soul Breaking Crossbow, but it didn't take long for the Heavenly Dao Army to calmly complete the reloading of the Soul Breaking Crossbow, and the second wave of arrow rain shot again, the officers and soldiers could only hide in the cabin, listening in horror to the terrifying sound coming out of the rocket launcher like raindrops! But the horror is that the rockets on the nail ship are burning the warship, but the officers and soldiers can't get out of the cabin to put out the fire!

And after the second wave of bows and arrows fired a salvo, the distance between the two sides finally entered the range of ordinary bows and arrows, and the Heavenly Dao Army had already rescued those dozens of people, and began to use the black lacquer bow to attack,

The black lacquer bow naturally can't be compared with the soul-breaking crossbow that can shoot three arrows at a time, so the number of arrows shot at the official ships has been greatly reduced, and the officers and soldiers can finally get out of the cabin and start fighting fires and counterattacks, but although the Heavenly Dao Army has switched to the black lacquer bow, the shooting spirit has improved a lot, so it still suppresses the counterattack of the official archers.

As the fire became more ferocious, many official ships that missed the opportunity to put out the fire finally burned uncontrollably, the psychological defense line of the officers and soldiers collapsed, and some of the people on the boats with fierce fire began to jump into the water to escape, and some of the warships that had not yet been affected behind also turned their bows and began to escape, and there were fewer and fewer warships that still insisted on fighting the fire and counterattacking the Tiandao Army.

Finally, as the warships of the two sides finally collided, Ruan Xiaoer led Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi to pull out their war knives and shouted, "Kill!" Kill! Kill! ”

Everyone in the Heavenly Dao Army bravely jumped onto the official ship and fought with the officers and soldiers, and the two sides officially started hand-to-hand combat!

At this time, although the number of officers and soldiers was still more than that of the Heavenly Dao Army, after a series of times the main ship was destroyed, the commander was killed, and the warship was burned to the blow, the morale of the officers and soldiers had been depressed to the extreme, and where was the opponent of the officers and soldiers of the Heavenly Dao Army, they were immediately defeated like a mountain, and the fierce Heavenly Dao Army people either killed the warship or drove them into the water, and the officers and military ships participating in the battle were also captured by the Heavenly Dao Army one after another, and those warships that were hesitating in the back saw that the situation was not right, and immediately hurriedly turned the bow of the ship and ran, and the Tiandao Army took advantage of the victory to pursue, Leaving more than a dozen ships to deal with the officers and soldiers who fell into the water and the prisoners, the remaining dozens of ships frantically chased after the dozens of official ships that fled into the wilderness!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The battle on the lake fell into the eyes of the officers and soldiers on the shore of the water and the Heavenly Dao army.

Seeing that the officers and soldiers were defeated and fled in the wilderness, the Tiandao Army suddenly cheered loudly, and there was a tsunami in the mountains above the Golden Beach checkpoint.

And in stark contrast to the official army side of a death-like silence, the officers and soldiers looked at each other, a look of horror, from the assembly of the army to the present, Puzhou and Bozhou two roads were first annihilated, Huyanzhuo five cavalry was disabled, now even the Jeju naval army has been defeated, the official army has been equivalent to three consecutive defeats, and all are fiasco, the combat effectiveness of the Liangshan bandits has exceeded their imagination, the morale of the official army is rapidly weakened.

Gao Lian's face was extremely gloomy, and things had gotten out of his control at this point. From the very beginning when he was the commander of the anti-bandit coalition army, he only thought about how to use his soldiers to kill the thieves and bandits, and report his military exploits to the imperial court, not only won the imperial court's commendation, but also promoted his official wealth, and could occupy tens of thousands of fortunes.

Therefore, even the destruction of Pu and Bozhou did not reassure him, and even in order to block Hu Yanzhuo's mouth, he ordered Liu Ting to deliberately hide the true situation of many Liangshan thieves from Hu Yanzhuo.

But when things got to the point, he suddenly realized that the bandits, who originally thought that ten were stable, did not seem to be so simple, and it was even very likely that they would ...... Fail!

What happens if it fails? Gao Lian suddenly felt a trace of fear, and this fear made him shudder deeply!

No way! You can't sit still! Gao Lian took two deep breaths, looked back at the seven thousand state soldiers who had already set up the formation, and finally found a confidence for himself again, or rather, a life-saving straw!

No matter what, the main force of his army is fine, there are more than 7,000 people, as long as he can break through Liangshan at any cost to complete the suppression of bandits, even if the cost is to kill the enemy and lose 1,000, it doesn't matter, because as long as he wins, the eldest brother Gao Yu will definitely be able to settle the aftermath for himself!

What's more, on the side of Liangshan, Hu Yanzhuo is also attacking.

Although everything that happened now proves that Hu Yanzhuo is correct, although this feeling makes Gao Lian very uncomfortable, Gao Lian can only hope that Hu Yanzhuo can defeat the Liangshan bandits from the side, even if he reports more when he reports his military merits in the future, it doesn't matter!

Gao Lian thought about it, and immediately gave an order, "The Xuzhou Army, the Yanzhou Army, and the Qizhou Army listen to the order!" ”

The commanders of the three armies were stunned for a moment, and their hearts couldn't help but secretly say badly, they looked at each other, and they all saw deep cowardice from each other's eyes, but they could only take a step forward with a bitter face, "! ”

Gao Lian ordered, "Ben Shuai ordered you to attack the thieves with 4,000 men and horses from three routes, Xuzhou and Yanzhou troops are responsible for attacking the city, and Qizhou troops are responsible for covering!" ”

As soon as the Qizhou army heard that he was only responsible for covering, that is, shooting arrows and shouting, there was no need to step forward to fight at all, and he immediately took advantage of it and said, "Yes!" ”

Xuzhou and Yanzhou troops were stunned, the thieves were so strong and morale-rising, they didn't even have a decent siege weapon on their side, Gao Lian said that they were going to attack the city, but what was the difference between going to death? So the commanders of the two armies were stunned on the spot, whether to accept Gao Lian's order, not to accept it, not to accept it,

Gao Lian was in a bad mood, and when he saw it, he was immediately furious, and he couldn't care about it, so he immediately slapped the table hard and shouted, "Why didn't your two armies take the order?" Do you want to disobey Ben Shuai's orders?! ”

The generals of Jeju and Yanzhou gritted their teeth and said horizontally, "Boss, the thief city wall is high and dangerous, but our catapults, bed crossbows, and siege vehicles are all on the ships of the Jeju army, and now that the Jeju army has fled, how can we attack the city without those things?" ”

Gao Lian shouted, "Isn't there a ladder?!" ”

"Just use the ladder...... I'm afraid that the casualties will be very heavy......! ”

Gao Lian smashed the table again, "How can there be immortals in war!" Ben Shuai ordered you to conquer the thieves at any cost, and if you dare to disobey the order, Ben Shuai has the right to serve your warlords! ”

Seeing that there was no room for recovery, the commanders of the two armies finally took the general's order with a long sigh, and then went out of the camp tent and led the men and horses to rush towards the Golden Beach City Tower tremblingly.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"Great Chief, the enemy is beginning to attack the city! This place is dangerous, please take the big boss to move to Wanzi City! Wu Yong pointed to the officials and soldiers rushing like ants under the city and hurriedly said to Zheng Fei,

Zheng Fei waved his hand carelessly, but took two steps forward and drew his saber with a smack.

The eyes of several Heavenly Dao Army soldiers on the entire city tower focused on Zheng Fei's body,

The 3,000 troops of the Tiandao Army, 1,000 were allocated to Deng Yuanjue's cavalry regiment to go down the mountain, more than three people in the water camp were fighting fiercely with the Jeju army on the lake, and the third regiment of Chao Gai had nearly eight soldiers divided into a fuguan on the side of the mountain, and now Zheng Feishou can mobilize less than one person, that is, these people at the Jijin Beach checkpoint!

Therefore, although the golden beach is the first level of the three passes in front of the mountain, it is also equivalent to the latter level in some way, as long as this pass cannot be held, even if these people can withdraw to Wanzi City in the back to re-defend themselves, but the blow to morale is unbearable for the Heavenly Dao Army!

Therefore, Zheng Fei was ready to defend the golden sand beach from the beginning and hold on until the time of the planned counterattack came!

Zheng Fei's gaze swept over the soldier's face and shouted,

"Soldiers, behind you are our homeland, our brothers and sisters, our parents and children, and everything that is precious to each of us! And you are their protectors, their warriors! Although there are many enemies, they are all paper tigers, so there is no need to be afraid of them at all! Warriors, I will stay here today to fight side by side with you and defend our homeland and loved ones with you! ”

"Defend to the death! Defend to the death! As soon as the soldiers of the Heavenly Dao Army heard that the big head would stay and fight with them, especially after listening to his words, they were all in high spirits, and they raised their arms and shouted in unison!

Zheng Fei gave an order, "Soul Breaker, prepare!" ”

The soldiers of the Heavenly Dao Army immediately picked up the Soul Breaking Crossbow that had already been prepared to be put aside, adjusted their direction and strength, and aimed at the officers and soldiers who rushed like a flood.

"Put!" Zheng Fei gave an order!

Whoosh ......! Countless arrows rose into the air, whistling like raindrops and rushing towards the officers and soldiers!

I saw that the ranks of officers and soldiers suddenly cut down a large number of officers and soldiers like mowing grass!

Where had those state soldiers seen this kind of formation, they immediately turned their heads in fright and ran back, lest the urging arrow rain would shoot at their side again,

Gao Lian in the back was also shocked when he saw it, and he didn't see clearly until now that the legendary divine arm bow salvo would have such a terrifying power, and he couldn't help but regret that he shouldn't have concealed Hu Yanzhuo in the first place, but now he can't control so much, at this moment, he must not let these people in the three states withdraw from the formation, otherwise it will be difficult to drive them to fight hard!

Gao Lian immediately ordered, "Prepare the archers, whoever runs away will shoot whoever kills!" The infantry army is also ready, whoever dares to escape will be hacked to death! ”

Before the Sanzhou soldiers who had just fled back came back came to their senses, they saw that many arrows actually shot out from their side, knocking over many people in an instant, and many Gao Tang soldiers with big swords were also looking at them with fierce eyes, and they all hurriedly stopped in fright.

Only then did the commanders of the three armies have the opportunity to re-drive them back to the battlefield and approach the Golden Beach level,

Anyway, moving forward is death, and retreating is also death, after the state soldiers of the three armies realized this, they regained some courage and desperately attacked the golden beach.

Fortunately, this time they were not attacked by the Soul Breaker Crossbow, but it was not much better, Zheng Fei commanded everyone to shoot down with a black lacquer bow, and the state soldiers hurriedly set up shields to block the arrows, and finally came to the city and set up a ladder, and climbed up the city wall along the ladder!

At the same time, the archers of the Qizhou army also began to counterattack the city tower with bows and arrows.

Zheng Fei also commanded everyone to divide the division of defense, some people continued to shoot with bows and arrows at the officers and soldiers under the city and climbing the ladder, and some held long sticks and desperately pushed the ladder from the city wall, and the two sides officially began the scorching siege and defense battle!
