Chapter 975: Beachbreaking

When they got to the barrage, it was time for the ships to show their fangs.

And now, the preliminary work of the battlefield is naturally handed over to the rear fleet.

Specially equipped with powerful trebuchets that were already close to thunderbolts, the five-toothed ships continued to throw stones, and the stone bullets rained down and crackled on the cottages on both sides of the river.

The Nanchen trebuchet in the cottage also began to fight back, but compared to the Bashu water master, they could only be suppressed, no wonder they were the craftsmen who were proficient in equipment in Nanchen's country were basically packed and taken away by Ouyang Mo.

Later, Li Xinchen also tried his best to recruit a lot of craftsmen in Nanchen, and the difference in the treatment of craftsmen between Shu Han and Nanchen is obvious to all, so most of the craftsmen took this opportunity to go to Shu Han, which further led to the cessation of the operation of the workshops in the Nanchen system, etc., but of course the princes in the Nanchen court would not care about this kind of problem, the farmers and craftsmen were just the bottom of the society, and they certainly did not care who came and who left.

But when war broke out, everything was naturally different.

The Shu Han army, which had a large number of advanced equipment, was still able to gain the upper hand even in the battle, while most of the equipment equipped in the Nanchen army was already old, which naturally showed a huge gap at this time.

The stone bullet of the Shu Han sailor roared and hit the wall, and he actually knocked out a hole in the wall, and the stone bullet was castrated, and rushed directly into the camp, rampage, and I don't know how many Nanchen soldiers screamed and fell.

A similar situation also occurred in the cottage opposite, looking from the river, the cottage on both sides was the same smoke and dust, and the counterattack of the Nan Chen army was getting weaker and weaker, and even after a while, only scattered gravel fell on the river, which was almost no threat to such a behemoth as the Wuya ship.

At this time, Wang Chang decisively gave the order to attack, and the five-tooth ship, as the vanguard, began to accelerate again.

Seeing that the trebuchets on the cottages on both sides did not play their due role at all, Qi Xin had no choice but to order the sailors to move forward, no matter what, he couldn't let the enemy easily cut off the barrage.

The first few five-tooth ships almost simultaneously raised the bed crossbow and the hundred-step crossbow hidden under the deck, and the arrows were aimed in unison.

"Put!" Countless arrows rose into the air, joining the queue of stone bullets whistling in the air, and smashed intensively towards the Jingzhou sailors who rushed into the firing range, and the first two building ships were almost covered by this bullet rain at the same time, and the position where a stone bullet smashed into it was just the junction of the hull planks, and it actually collapsed two layers of wooden planks, and the building boat shook violently on the river surface, suddenly lost speed and balance, and the entire river was suddenly in chaos.

Qi Xin obviously didn't expect the attack of the Shu Han Navy Master to be so rapid, especially these five-toothed ships, which were almost showing the image of the Iron King Eight before, suddenly began to shoot arrows, and they could pour out so many arrows.

It's no wonder that Qi Xin is no wonder, after all, the five-tooth ship is only on the stage for the second time, and the last time, its opponent has been wiped out in Wolftail Beach, so it is reasonable that Qi Xin does not understand the performance of this kind of warship.

But what makes Qi Xin feel sad is that Nan Chen does not lack the national strength to build such a warship, after all, Nan Chen has also built the world's first sailor fleet like Jingzhou Sailor. It's a pity that Nan Chen has paid less and less attention to the construction of the army and armaments, and the ministers in the court don't know where to put their minds.

But in any case, the war has broken out, and as a person at the forefront of the frontline, all Qi Xin can do now is fight to the death.

The huge Huanglong ship moved forward with difficulty, using its huge hull to crash through the two building ships blocking the water on the river, and the Wuya ships that went down the river obviously also noticed this prominent enemy, and countless arrows and stones were dense like rain.

"General, we must hurry up and retreat!" One of the captains shouted loudly, and a stone bullet fell right on the ship's building, smashing through the second slipway, and the Huanglong ship suddenly shook violently, and more arrows swept across the entire deck in the next moment.

Several guards were quick and threw Qi Xin to the ground.

If it weren't for the two Huanglong ships behind that rushed up and shared some firepower, I'm afraid Qi Xin's flagship would have lost its combat capability.

At this time, several trebuchets in the camps on both sides of the strait finally began to exert their might, and the stone bullets were thrown condescendingly, and the warships of the Shu Han Navy Division were suddenly covered by the stone bullets and shot, and several smaller building ships had to withdraw from the battle.

"Grab the beach!" Wang Chang knew that he could not delay any longer, after all, the camps on both sides of the enemy were condescending and occupied the terrain advantage, and it was difficult to confront them with the trebuchets on the sailors' ships alone.

Braving the whistling arrows, several building boats rushed directly towards the beachhead on both sides, this is the place where the river turns around, the water is the most turbulent, and it is difficult for the warship to stop here directly, so Wang Chang's method is also very simple.

Most of these are the building boats in the Shu period, and they rushed directly against the river beach with the impact of the current, and rushed directly onto the river beach under the gaze of thousands of pairs of eyes!

Stranding, this is the simplest and crudest method that Wang Chang can think of.

As the gangplank was lowered, the soldiers on board rushed down frantically.

Beachgrabbing is always the most dangerous part of a landing war, no matter what the era.

The arrows rained down like locusts, and the shield-bearers screamed and waded to the beachhead, and behind them, the stranded ships were not idle, and the remaining bed crossbows and trebuchets on the ships were desperately trying to suppress the enemy.

The river beach is not very long, so it can accommodate these building boats, and the ships behind can only rely on small boats such as red horses and boats to rush up, so it is very important for the first batch of soldiers to go ashore to achieve great results.

It is not a steep mountain road from the river beach to the camp halfway up the mountain, but the Nanchen army has long expected that the Shu Han soldiers will attack from here, so the mountain road has been laid up early with deer and horses, and there are even two teams of crossbowmen, at this time these crossbowmen are frantically pouring arrows on the building boats and the beachhead.

"Shield, shield!" A battle lord roared loudly, the arrows were unbridled around him, and there was a piercing roar, and the Shu Han soldiers who fell from the arrows floated on the water, dyeing the river red.

The shield-wielding shield-wielding man finally formed a defensive line with difficulty, escorting the soldiers behind him to move forward slowly.

"Crossbow, let's go!"

The crossbowmen on the five-tooth ship not far away also aimed at the Nan Chen soldiers on the hillside.
