Chapter 275: Defeat Gao Yu (7)
There is a fleet of thieves ahead.
Gao Yu was overjoyed that he finally saw the thief ship, and he ordered the striker Yang Fan to move towards the thief ship at a high speed, and the rest of the ships quickly followed.
Dozens of small boats were lined up in the lake, and the heroes of Liangshan were waiting in the boats, and some snakes were floating next to the boats. When the official ship was about 600 paces away, they placed a serpentine in the direction and lit the tail arquebus. Immediately, the flame of the serpent's tail erupted backwards, generating a lot of momentum to propel the serpent forward at a rapid pace.
This snake is a flying thunder in the Liangshanbo mine, which is called "bird's beak silver snake" by the naval soldiers. It has a four-stage power system, which automatically falls off after each section is burned, and ignites the previous section, generating a huge power to push the mine to the enemy ship. There is a sharp part in the front part of the mine, like a bird's beak, which penetrates deep into the hull when it encounters a ship, and then detonates the mine with a huge impact force.
The officers and men were shocked, and they returned that Liang Shanbo was going to burn the warship with fire, but who knew that what they heard was the sound of explosions that resounded through the sky, and what they saw was the scene of sawdust flying wildly and the ship being destroyed and people killed. The official ship kept turning its direction to try to avoid the attack of the flying thunder, but the flying thunder was extremely fast, and it was impossible for a huge ship to avoid it. As a result, the incident of one panicked ship hitting another panicked ship occurred repeatedly, and in an instant, the group of officers and ships was like many headless flies running around, coupled with the sound of explosions and the wails of officers and men who fell into the water, the group of officers and ships had become a mess.
Gao Yu was shocked when he saw this, and he was speechless for a long time, and the thieves and gunpowder weapons appeared in an endless stream, intending to stop the official ship from advancing. Annoyed, he gritted his teeth and ordered, and the group of ships rushed towards the thief ship at a high speed, and even if it was bombed, it would not retreat. So the official ship rushed over at a high speed at the risk of being destroyed by a mine.
The Liangshanbo soldiers put all the mines, and when they reached the range of the Divine Arm Bow, they all jumped into the water and abandoned the ship. Seventy or eighty small boats were captured without much effort, and some of the soldiers got on the boats, relieving the overload of the boats.
This time, more than 70 official ships were destroyed, and before they could fight with the thieves, half of the warships were lost, and the thieves' weapons were too sharp! The officers and men were in a panic, not knowing what weapons they would use against them next, and they drove the ship forward in fear.
There is no way out. He was the last cavalry general alive, and the other three were already in their respective positions. He couldn't figure out why he was also a thief, why Liangshanbo's thieves were so powerful, this was very different from the Zhongshan thieves he had killed before. They have advanced weapons, unity, and proper tactics, and even in a one-on-one competition, the officers and men are by no means opponents. I'm afraid that even the fierce Khitan Iron Rider and the terrifying Western Xia Iron Harrier can only look at it.
He looked up to the sky in despair and sighed, he was also a hero of the green forest before, and after recruiting An, he was promoted to the envoy of the festival by suppressing the green forest team, and now he is about to be buried in the hands of this group of green forest troops, it is time to repay the debt, God will really joke! Zhang Kai knew that he was guilty and had absolutely no hope of living, so he was heartbroken and killed more thieves.
So he raised his gun and shouted: "I'd rather be broken than broken!" Soldiers, rush over and kill the thieves! Dare to retreat the latter, and the official will kill him with his own hands! ”
The soldiers looked at each other, knowing that there was only one death when they rushed forward, but they were forced to charge hard. At this moment, a large knife in his hand slapped the horse and rushed over, and with only one knife the open head rolled on the ground. He said in a loud voice: "Brothers, open your conscience and want to force the brothers to a point of no return, I, Wulong, have killed him!" We can't afford to waste our lives here. I heard that Liangshan was a good man and benevolent, and he treated the captives preferentially, and those who did not want to fall into the grass were given travel expenses to go home. Who has no parents and a young wife? We have left a life to go home and be filial to our parents and take care of our wives and children. ”
The officers and soldiers had no leader, and they were surrounded by regiments, and they were already unwilling to fight anymore, so they threw away their swords and guns, dismounted and knelt down.
At this point, the battle of Liangshan Bo on land was all over. They concentrated all the cavalry, including the cavalry of Qingzhou Sanshan, and annihilated the cavalry of the officers and soldiers with superior forces. In this battle, Liang Shanbo captured tens of thousands of prisoners, countless horses and weapons, and also captured Fufeng and all the craftsmen of the shipyard. This was specially arranged by Song Jiang, and with these craftsmen, there would be no more than one step to rise in the Liangshanbo Shipyard.
"Fight for it!"
Finally saw the main fleet of thieves, Gao Yu immediately ordered. The official ship rushed forward at a high speed, as if to vent all the anger caused by the mines on the way to the ship in front.
More than a dozen giant ships in Liangshanbo were lined up in two rows, arranged in a herringbone shape, lowering the sails and lowering the rudders, lying on the side of the ship, with the muzzles of the black holes facing the official ship, just waiting for it to enter the firing range.
The official ship was moving forward at a high speed, and the leader of the platoon suddenly felt that it had encountered a rope-like obstacle, but the twenty-four waterwheels were pedaled by manpower, and the power generated was not something that the rope could stop. As the rope was taut, a violent explosion sounded, and the bow of the ship was immediately shattered.
When they heard the explosion, the officers and men panicked, because they had already been bombed twice in a state of insanity, and as soon as the explosion sounded, many soldiers had weak legs and trembling hands, and they could not get up from sitting on the boat. The soldier controlling the waterwheel stopped stomping, and the boat slowly stopped.
The explosion is a curse!
He was like an angry wolf, ordering the wolves to rush forward regardless of life and death, so one after another warships went forward one after another, and were sunk by mines one after another. Listen to the school bag
The official ship entered the minefield, in this area the Liangshanbo Navy laid a large number of string mines, called the "underwater dragon king" by the Liangshanbo Navy, the fuse of the mine was connected to the stone below by the rope, and then connected with the blocking rope, the other end was tied to a wooden board to increase buoyancy, when the rope was tightened by the ship, the mine fuse was broken, and the buoyancy of the mine without stone pulling increased rapidly, and it exploded at the bottom of the ship.
The minefield became the grave of the official ships, and in a short period of time, more than 100 large and small loach ships were sunk, and the sound of this explosion did not know when it would end. Gao Yu looked at the remaining less than a hundred warships and was terrified, with this strength, even if he defeated the giant ship on the opposite side and landed in Liangshan, would he be able to defeat the thieves who were waiting for work? He suddenly retreated and ordered him to retreat.
Seeing that the official ship was about to run away, the giant ship of Liangshanbo opened fire, blowing up the already frightened official ship and running in all directions, without any formation. After dropping a dozen more ships, the official ships fled the firing range.
The Liangshanbo giant ship did not pursue, and some of the mines in the minefield were not detonated, so they would not be stupid enough to bomb their own ships with their own mines, and after the war, the special demining sailors would dispose of the mines before they could pass.
Gao Yu led the rest of the warships to escape, as anxious as a fish that slipped through the net, busy like a lost dog, panicked, just wanted to dock early, regardless of the route when he came. Gao Yu was annoyed and angry in his heart, 300 ships, 100,000 soldiers, six or seven were lost in one day, and he didn't even see the thief's face. Unwilling to fail but helpless, the thief's firearms are too sharp, which is a sharp weapon against warships, and the official ships do not understand, let alone guard, and they hit the nail on the head. Gao Yu was sulky but had nothing to say, who let you not have this kind of weapon!
What about the back road? Where is the back road? How can I explain to Your Majesty and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty when I go back? This time, I can't hide it anyway. can't hide it, his glory and wealth have been lost, and the Gao family has been in a slump since then, do you want this failure to be a witness to your fall in officialdom? Who can survive if you ask for help? Go to Cai Jing? Forget it! If he didn't take Liangshanbo, he didn't complete the revenge task he gave him, and it was when he unloaded the mill and killed the donkey that he was unwilling to wade into troubled waters and plead for himself.
The old fox is the best at falling into the well, and he will be the one who picks up the biggest and heaviest stone, and smashes him to the bottom of the well at once.
What to do?
Gao Yu was still thinking hard about the back road, not wanting that the back road had been blocked, and a piece of news scared him into blue lips, and they were surrounded by the Liangshan Bo Water Army. When he came out of the cabin, he saw the boundless white sails rolling in, this is the net of heaven and earth, even if there is a technique to return to the sky, he can't escape.
Gao Yu has no master, the souls of the officers and soldiers are mourned, and they are demented and still in the water, and they don't know what to do.
At this time, a man came in a small boat, and the man driving the boat was naked, and his white flesh was very dazzling. He entered the group of official ships, and said loudly without fear: "I am Zhang Shun, the commander of the Liangshan Water Army, and I have come to meet Captain Gao with the order of Commander Song!" ”
He was not afraid of danger, and drove the boat directly to the handsome boat and said to the frightened Gao Yu: "Captain Gao, please!" ”
Gao Yu pretended to be calm and said: "If you want to fight, you can fight, what is Song Jiang's mother-in-law doing?" What are you sending for? ”
Zhang Shun said: "Captain Gao can also see that now that there is a huge disparity in strength between you and me, it is only a matter of a moment to destroy your fleet." Commander Song couldn't bear to be miserable, so he came down to persuade the captain to lay down his arms and abandon the ship and surrender! Commander Song also asked Zai to bring a message to the lieutenant, and the four cavalry generals on land were all dead, and the shipyard had been burned. He thanked the Taewei for bringing the skilled craftsmen to Jeju, who would surely be the elite of the Yangsanbo Shipyard. ”
Gao Yu saw that the general trend had gone, sighed and was about to give the order to surrender, but Yang Fan drove over and said, "Gao Taiwei Hugh listens to his nonsense!" We still have tens of thousands of people, and we still have a fight, and if we don't believe it, we can't fight our way out! ”
Hearing this, Gao Yu hesitated again. Zhang Shun said: "I can't do it!" Just your tens of thousands of people are not enough for me Liangshan Po plugged between his teeth! Yang Fan, don't take the blame, you won't even have time to cry when the cannon fire goes off! ”
Yang Fan saw that the soldiers had no intention of fighting, so he had a plan to block the retreat and fight bloodily. He shouted: "Kill Zhang Shun, blow the horn for our army's charge, and the archers prepare!" ”
Zhang Shun also said sharply: "Yang Fan, you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, but you can't send so many innocent soldiers to death!" Brothers of officers and soldiers, Liang Shanbo treats prisoners preferentially, don't be innocent victims! Yang Fan wants to use your lives to whitewash his selfish heart! ”
"Shoot the arrows!"
The stout arrow shot the small boat dripping and turning, the boat was empty, and Zhang Shun jumped into the water early.
