If it weren't for the longbow's attack being too sharp, and generally enough people gathered would be easily attacked by the longbow and cause huge losses, they would be exchanged for people.

The natives, not without ideas, when they found that the attack of the Ding Navy was too sharp, where they hid, through a simple design, made a few straw men, wearing indigenous clothes, and wanted to borrow arrows from a straw boat.

The grass boat borrowed arrows, between the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it was an interesting conversation, under Zhou Yu's order, Zhuge Liang had no choice, so he chose such a method, the fog was blocked, and the grass boat borrowed arrows.

Of course, the natives don't have this condition, and if there is a fog to cover them, they can even take the initiative to attack, because the opponent's longbow and so-called gunpowder weapons have no effect.

But in their opinion, no matter how good their eyesight is, when they are separated by a considerable distance, they don't want to see clearly, they just want to rely on these to obtain the steel of the Dinghai Navy.

When Sun Yue saw this situation, he couldn't help but smile, these natives really have ideas, if there is no telescope, maybe they will be deceived away, under the telescope, even if it is 2 kilometers, or even 3 kilometers away, the small dots that are difficult to see clearly with the naked eye can be seen clearly, only one or two hundred meters away, with a telescope, and even the details on the face, you can see it relatively clearly, how can you be fooled.

Under the straw boat borrowed arrows that the natives took for granted, the Ding Navy was not fooled at all, which made the natives very depressed.

It's a pity that under such conditions, the natives don't have a good way to solve the current problem, and they can't attack and attack, and the method of borrowing arrows from straw boats has no effect, as if the Dinghai Navy is like a hedgehog, and there is no way to start.

The natives were helpless, they stopped there, the continuous losses made them unacceptable, and the temptation of fine iron made them unable to retreat on the spot, so they fell into a dilemma, in their opinion, the huge camp has given them a stubborn foundation, they don't know that the nightmare is coming.

For the aborigines' retreat, Sun Yue also has no good way, the number of natives is increasing, and they are gathered in the camp, there is no good way at all, as far as the current strength of the settlement, it is okay to defend, if you rashly attack, maybe, there will be a big problem.

Sun Yue at this time, there is no problem, as long as the settlement is guarded, there is no problem, although there are more and more indigenous people, but there is never any problem in guarding the camp.

In the face of more and more opponents, Sun Yue is also very nervous, in a sense, the huge number of people, already have the possibility of conquering the camp, maybe the natives do not have this possibility, but they must also maintain a comprehensive vigilance.

Although it is not all staff, it is necessary to be vigilant on the building, but it is necessary to work shifts.

The natives did not attack, but continued to accumulate strength, almost more than 30,000 people, close to 40,000 people, under the premise of continuous pressure.

However, at this time, the good news came, the lookout above the building, found a problem, a large fleet of ships, heading for the Ryukyus.

Reinforcements from the Dinghai Navy had reached the vicinity of the Ryukyus after almost a month's journey.

In fact, a day ago, at sea, a huge fleet was slowly moving, and they were less than 100 miles away from the Ryukyus.

27 days, and it is expected that it may take 28 days to arrive in the Ryukyus from the Dinghai Navy, which is a pioneering feat that Sunyoshi made a decision before approaching the Dinghai Navy, and the only warship chose to depart early

To tell the truth, it was this fleet that made Sun Ji understand that the new sail warships of the Ding Navy were different from the previous ones, with better sails, allowing them to gain greater kinetic energy under the same wind conditions, in order to take care of the Chinese-style sailing ships, they did not sail with full sails at all, but even so, they repeatedly ran to the front.

Now, the entire voyage has been completed for the vast majority, and the rest is a simple process, walking the last few days and arriving in the Ryukyus, but he is not at ease, so he still chooses to leave early.

In fact, it has been a day since the departure, and when this sail battleship, under the premise of fully demonstrating its strength under the right wind conditions, the final result is very terrifying, and their speed is very fast.

The speed of about 8 knots is at least more than three times that of the previous Chinese-style sailing ships, and the voyage of 8 hours a day, the voyage of 128 nautical miles, which is also more than 3 times, and the time of one day, more than 450 miles, at this speed, the Ryukyus are close at hand.

The natives, unaware of it, had arrived at such a great weapon on the sea as they were encroaching and preparing to besiege the settlement.

The settlement of the Dinghai Navy is 1.5 miles from the sea, and this distance is the range of the ballista, and similarly, in order to besiege here, the natives are the closest, less than 800 meters from the sea.

Sun Yue was the first to discover this ship, they have always had a lookout here, on the sea, such an obvious ship, as early as 20 nautical miles away, they have seen it, at first, they thought it was the arrival of the natives, and after reporting to Sun Yue, it gradually stabilized.

If the natives had such a huge ship, they would have attacked them from the sea a long time ago, and there were very few streamlined warships even in the Northern Song Dynasty, let alone the Ryukyus.

Although the sail ship is very fast, the distance of 20 nautical miles takes at least 1 hour.

At present, there is no long-distance means of communication in the Dinghai Navy, and the carrier pigeon is on land, which is very good, but at sea, the fault tolerance rate is low, and some occasional cultivation for the time being is not considered the mainstream, but in the daytime, under the premise of good sight, the flag language is a relatively good way of communication.

On the premise of discovering that this is a reinforcement belonging to the Dinghai Navy, the two sides have completed the communication with the flag, and the distance between them is dozens of miles under the premise of no blocking, which is a super long distance for this era.

The flag language, this and simple, almost without any technical problems of communication, as long as the meaning of the flag is determined, it can be relatively communicated.

Soon, through the flag, there was a simple exchange with the ship dozens of miles away, and the two sides exchanged information with each other, Sun Yue knew that the reinforcements were coming, although there was still a day's voyage, but there were several big ships, and 2,000 heavily armed soldiers, which had overwhelmed the natives, not to mention, there was such a warship.

Sun Yue didn't know the results of the search boat, but the power of 36 ballistas, he knew, general crossbows, more of a single soldier's use, their attack power is high, that is, one or two people, but the ballista of the Dinghai Navy has a kind of crossbow arrow, that is, it is very thick, it is filled with gunpowder, through some switches, as long as it is touched, or after a certain period of time, it will explode.

This thing, if it falls into the crowd, the damage caused by it is probably not less than that of ordinary shells, after all, a 3-meter-long, two-inch diameter crossbow arrow can be charged with at least a dozen kilograms.

Just like the blasting canisters on the Korean battlefield, so far, the Dinghai Navy has only made a version of black powder, nitrocellulose, and other more powerful gunpowder, which has not been equipped with troops for the time being.

And just like that, it's already very scary, equivalent to dozens of grenades, plus prefabricated fragments, with a damage radius of more than 10 meters, which is a real range of damage.

This is different from the gunpowder arrows fired by the previous longbow, which is fired with a longbow, and under the weight of the longbow, their power is at most a grenade, or a little more.

But the ballista is different, in itself, the ballista is an ultra-long-range weapon, and their weight is far more powerful than the longbow, and it is even more double under the gunpowder arrows used, which is also the most important weapon of the Dinghai Navy.

After a brief contact, it was agreed that this side was on top of the tall building, responsible for the defense of the ship's report, looking for the most dense, or the most valuable target.

Although the natives have not entered the civilized society, their hierarchical concepts are not ideological, but are displayed in clothing, for example, their leaders, who are mostly equipped with relatively distinctive feathers.

This kind of distinctiveness, although it is relatively good-looking, will reveal their identity at a critical moment, and the natives are not aware of this at all, even if they gather tens of thousands of troops, but the identity of the leader is still very obvious.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, even if you know that these indigenous leaders, they are wearing gorgeous clothes, there is no way to deliver the news, but in the Dinghai Navy, there is a flag, basically, but mutual communication, as long as these indigenous leaders, they are within the range of the Dinghai, which means that they have no way to escape.

When the ship approached the shore, about 100 meters from the shore, where it had been carefully explored, there were no reefs, and where the draft was deep enough, the first round of shooting began after providing sufficiently accurate coordinates in this settlement.

36 crossbow arrows, covering the entire area, with the accuracy of the ballista, across a distance of almost 1200 meters, the error is there, but not big, the deviation is the largest, and it will not exceed 20 meters, in fact, for the gunpowder arrows equipped with crossbow arrows, the distance of 20 meters is already considered a killing distance.

In this area, there are 12 high-level tribes, and the personnel are also quite dense, and they don't realize at this time that a nightmare has come.

When the gunpowder arrow is not covered by a torpedo, if the longbow gunpowder arrow still has a certain range, and there may even be deviations, the crossbow arrow is even more terrifying.

A crossbow bolt covers an area of almost 300 square meters, and 36 arrows are almost, that is, more than 10,000 square meters, more than a dozen acres, and in the middle, at least more than 5,000 people are concentrated.

There was a whooshing sound, and the crossbow bolts began to attack, and from the moment they were shot, the result of the attack had not changed at all.

This is the crossbow arrow of the Dinghai Navy, and for the first time in actual combat, the combination of explosives and crossbow arrows immediately showed miraculous results.

36 crossbow arrows hit the ground in response, the charge of a crossbow arrow, about 20 kilograms, hundreds of kilograms of black explosives, in the non-stop range, began to explode in turn, crazy fragments and gunpowder brought by the strong impact, like a hurricane swept across the battlefield, after a mess, the scene was almost emptied.

Hit the target, but the lethality, did not appear, after all, this is not flat ground, there are some shrubs and the like, if it is an explosion in the air, the damage of the fragments will appear more sufficient, and the coverage range will be relatively little, but unfortunately the air explosion is not very reliable, after all, the current scientific and technological level of the navy, as well as the processing capacity, is just a manual turn, even reliable power is beautiful and can be solved, not to mention precise control,

Or the control of the landing impact, it seems a little simpler, and it is enough to control.

The natives have very few steel-refining weapons, let alone such offensive weapons, and the moment they are attacked, their camp is the first to be chaotic.

They didn't see it, let alone they formed a fixed camp, this camp was a huge dependence and a huge cage for them, and under the instructions of the flag, the first wave of attacks was first targeted here.

In a fixed barracks, they receive the most damage in the face of a covering attack from gunpowder arrows, and even in a sense, there is no way to run.

In fact, in just 500 breaths, the ballista completed a total of 12 rounds of fire, completing the covering attack on the opposite side.

The power of firearms and weapons began to appear, if it was a crossbow arrow, 12 rounds, at best, killing more than 2 enemies at a time, at most hundreds of casualties, which was almost very small for the number of natives who had increased to tens of thousands, and the total number increased to a certain extent, the effect of simple killing and injury was not obvious.

But in fact, the covering attack of gunpowder weapons produced by the lethality is huge, each of the first round has achieved more than 30 casualties, 35 gunpowder arrows, a round down to damage thousands, the next few rounds, not as high as the first round, because the speed has risen, the power of the ballista, in a short period of time, causing destructive damage, when the speed up, there is no need to use the flag language to associate with each other.

In the end, after 12 rounds, the scene was a mess, the natives, of course, did not exist, close to 35,000 troops, completely disabled, more than 12,000 dead, as many as 8,000 wounded, and more than half of the combat attrition.

This is a huge blow to the professional soldiers in the era of cold weapons, not to mention the natives, they can no longer maintain their camp, they scattered and fled, a boat, and the problem was solved, which is also reasonable, the aborigines' camp was on fire, and the rest, the natives gathered around, also retreated.
