Chapter 136 Seeking All the Time - 4

"Coward, slacker! Hurry up, hurry up! ”

In the ears of the Song oarsmen, Saifudin's big food talk with a Turkic accent was tantamount to the roar of the devil. They had seen the great cannibal slash off the head of an oarsman in a fit of rage, and some remembered the heat of the blood dripping from his neck. Now, in the furious roar of Saifudin, the Song oarsmen did not dare to raise their heads, most of them were completely confused, and others were engrossed in distinguishing the tone of the Great Eater, and it must be said that the potential of people was forced out, and some people could simply comprehend the vague command of the Great Eater with a Turkic accent, and "guessed" the meaning of the ghost before being beaten.

“*&……&*……&……”

Suddenly, Saifuddin's roar came to an abrupt end, and several other big cannibals cried out in grief.

"Oh my god!" Several Song oarsmen looked up and almost scared the three souls out of their bodies. I saw a headless corpse standing in the middle of the deck, and a few big cannibals standing next to it looked like they had seen a ghost, and their faces were covered with blood. After the cannonball passed through Saifuddin, it pierced the chest of a large food warrior next to him, and flew away.

"Guanyin Niangniang." A few of the oarsmen were terrified.

A few oarsmen who saw the opportunity quickly saw that the big eater ghost was in a mess, dropped the oars and flipped into the river, and the people disappeared. "What are you looking at, why don't you run for your life!" Someone shouted before jumping into the river, the Pearl River is wide, there are whirlpools everywhere under the water, and jumping into the river is nine deaths and one life, but it is better than ten deaths on the boat. These oarsmen were not good people in the first place, and after being reminded by their companions, they jumped into the river one after another, and in an instant, only the big cannibal with the six gods and no master was left in the boat.

In the smoke, the pirate warship almost lost its command, and could only rush forward in confusion like a swarm of wasps.

"Your Excellency", Yasin said loudly with an anxious face, "this is the cunning trick of the infidels, they are flying kites, we have been fooled!" ”

'Kite flying' was a common technique of the Turkic cavalry against the Crusader cavalry. Most of the western barbarian cavalry are not good at bows and arrows, and the Turks rely on bows and strong horses, often retreating while shooting arrows to consume the enemy's strength, when the crusader cavalry retreats, they stick to harass like a bone-attached body, and so on and so forth, if the barbarian cavalry does not have a good archer to cover, it will soon be worn out of sharpness, and then it will be defeated. The officers of the Great Food Navy were all tribal cavalry and were extremely familiar with this tactic.

The Song navy fought and retreated, without the slightest intention of hand-to-hand combat, and Yasin immediately thought of "flying kites" on the grassland.

"Damn," Abad exclaimed, "it's 'kite flying'!" ”

"Your Excellency," roared Yassin, "retreat, and not be led by the nose by the enemy!" ”

There was smoke outside, and Famaitu's eyes were full of smoke, and he didn't react to Yasin's roar, just staring straight ahead. "No way!" At this time, Abad didn't care about the face of his colleagues at all, and objected loudly: "The artillery of the Song people is powerful, and there is only one way to retreat!" We picked up speed and rushed over to the broadside! in order to fight a way out! "To go forward is to die, Your Excellency, first retreat and regroup your army!" There are warriors, there is a way! The warriors are all dead in battle, and even if there is a good way, it can't be used! ”

"Warriors?!" Another officer next to him sneered, "Yasin, you're a coward!" ”

"You?!" Yasin's face turned red and he said angrily, "Puaza, are you crazy? ”

The two men glared angrily. Famaitu yelled, "Shut up! "They didn't keep attacking each other. At this time, the warship was still continuing to pursue, and a cannonball suddenly fell on the side of the ship, and the high column of water splashed Famaitu, and he was so angry that he trembled, raised his scimitar, and said loudly: "Continue to rush forward, Sultan's warriors, I would rather die with an arrow in the chest than an arrow in the back, and if I die, I will be a coward who is looked down upon!" Yasin still wanted to argue, but was glared at by his uncle's eyes and did not dare to speak again.

Famaitu looked at the Song gunboats looming in the smoke in front of him, and sighed, Yasin said that the Song people were "flying kites" right, but if they really met the archers who "flew kites" on the grassland, they could only rush up to fight hand-to-hand combat to get rid of it. These damn guys are like wolves, and the more they dodge, the more arrogant they become.

At the head of the sub-city of Guangzhou, because of the condescending relationship, the smoke on the river did not completely block the view.

At the beginning, the officers and soldiers watching the battle at the head of the city still let out exclamations from time to time, and then gradually fell silent.

From the beginning to the present, on the Pearl River, the gunboats of the South China Sea Navy Division have fought against pirate ships ten times their size, and the battle has been one-sided, and it is simply a slaughter-like battle. The battlefield is constantly producing a lot of smoke out of nothing, making everything seem to float in the smoke, giving the spectators a completely unreal feeling.

The noon sun was very strong, and through the thick smoke and fog, the battlefield on the Pearl River was full of sunlight, the fire of the ship's fire, the swords of the dense pirate warship, the flash of the cannon firing, and the corpses that appeared from time to time. The waves of the Pearl River rise and fall, the river gradually becomes turbid, the waves roll up the corpses, sometimes a single one, sometimes in many bodies entangled with the cable plank, some follow the wreckage of the ship to sink and float, the appearance of the deceased is strange, the river sometimes pushes them to the shore, sometimes they sink and float in the whirlpool in the center of the river, the shallows on the river bank have accumulated a lot of corpses and wreckage, the shallow water on the river side shows a strange blood red, under the reflection of the noon sun, showing a strange magnificence.

"Lord Liu, what do you think of the outcome of this battle?" Chen Gongju turned his face to look at Liu Yu.

Liu Yuzheng looked at the battlefield on the river with the same concentration as the others in Zicheng City, Chen Gongju asked knowingly, he came back to his senses, looked left and right, and lowered his voice and said: "The sailor gunboat is enough to sweep the four seas, Brother Chen, I won't tell you, I'm afraid, fortunately, Zhao Yuanzhi is a friend and not an enemy, and we are just acting with him, otherwise, the reclamation of the South China Sea and the foundation of Guangnan may be in jeopardy." His tone was embarrassed, and there was a hint of shock on his face. Most of the Guangnan gentry and officials at the head of the city were like this, some of their eyes were shocked with fear, some were shocked with admiration, and some were shocked with fire.

"My Great Song Dynasty faces the sea on both sides, the rivers and canals are vertical and horizontal, and the sailors and gunboats are so sharp, if they are enemies with me, they are deeply worried." Chen Gongju's eyes showed a hint of melancholy, and he said in a low voice, "The method of the sailor to teach and practice, and the various discipline rules and regulations drawn up by Yuan Zhi, I have sent someone to copy a backup from the military department. Since I, Guangnan, want to open up the sea frontier for the imperial court, this sailor must pay attention to it. In addition, this war only eliminated the disease of scabies, but Haikou, a major disaster on Guangnan Road, could not be called eradicated. After this battle, Zhao Yuanzhi led the sailor to expedition to the Great Food Country, in order to maintain the peace of the sea and frontier in this area, it was necessary to drill a sailor to suppress bandits, in addition, to let the local gentry pay for food, build forts to guard the mouth of the river, in order to prevent the strong enemy from going deep into the inland river by sea. ”

Who is this "strong enemy"? Liu Yu knew that Zhao Xingde would never use force against Lishe, but the imperial court was more than a naval division in the South China Sea, Han Shizhongheng's naval exploits were impressive, and his reputation was not under Zhao Xingde. Once the imperial court dispatched any army that went up from the Shuo River on the sea road and marched south with the Lingqu to the north and south, Guangnan would be

The situation of the enemy on the belly and back. If you don't take precautions, I'm afraid that the clear stream of Guangnan will become a fish on the chopping board in the future.

"The fire battalion and the sailor are bound to practice." Liu Yu lowered his voice and muttered, "However, the scriptures are easy to read, but it is difficult to become a Buddha." The Imperial Court Fire Gun Camp Drill and the Sailor Drill are all placed there, but not everyone is as powerful as Zhao Yuanzhi. His gaze fell on the orderly sailor battle column on the river, and sighed, "The good general of the Yuan Zhishi, the literary ability to possess the people, the martial ability to threaten the enemy, and the essence of the training of the South China Sea sailors are no longer possible by copying the drill code." ”

On the surface of the Pearl River, the South China Sea Navy Division and the pirates are in full swing, as the so-called insiders look at the lively, insiders watch the doorway, the officials and gentry watching the battle at the head of the city of Zicheng are all laymen who do not know the battle formation, it stands to reason that they do not understand the tactics of the sailors at all. However, the South China Sea Navy Division advanced and retreated well-founded, and the serpentine maneuvers of the gunboats were extremely neat, and the front and rear horizontal formations alternately covered the artillery bombardment of the enemy ships. And the pirates seem to be leading by the nose, the big ship can't get close to the sailor, and the small boat rushes up and it's useless. It seems to be a simple scene, but Chen Gongju and Liu Yu know how difficult it is to do it. It's as if the fire gun camp drill is clear, manipulating the gun, moving forward, and retreating, everything does not require a huge amount of effort, and those who can really make a finger like an arm and finger without any confusion are definitely elite soldiers. And on the water, the wind and waves are undulating, and the difficulty is ten times greater than that of the foot soldiers on land.

On an ordinary sea, even if the South China Sea Naval Division had sharp artillery and was well-trained, it could only thwart the enemy and could not prevent the pirate ships from scattering and fleeing for their lives. The battle lasted for more than three hours, and the red sun set in the west, and the pirate fleet was completely defeated, and the flag died down and returned to the docks of Western Australia.

The remnants of the sun were like blood, the smoke of gunpowder covered the sun, the river was full of wreckage of wooden boats and floating corpses, and the river water on the shore was almost dyed red......
