Chapter 134: Xu Yuanlang's abacus
Seeing that the enemy ships were getting closer and closer, he came to look at the Wanjun Divine Crossbow that was still loaded, and ordered: "Order, all ships are lined up, the officers and soldiers in the ship are lined up to meet the enemy, and all departments are ready to use crossbowmen!" ”
On the other side, Xu Yuanlang also secretly asked the soldiers to change into bows and crossbows under the cover of shields, and waited for the two-step warship to approach, only to hear the main generals of both sides shouting almost at the same time: "Release!" ”
In an instant, the shields of both sides were opened almost simultaneously, revealing the standard crossbowmen firing formation, only to hear a series of "squeak" mechanical sounds and "swish" crossbow arrows breaking through the air, and the soldiers on both sides fell in rows. At this time, the comparison is the will to fight of both sides, the crossbowmen in the front row are down, and on the top of the back row, the auxiliary soldiers are inserted in the gap between the ranks, constantly dragging the crossbowmen at the end out, and so on. However, because the eight-ship warship was much taller than the ordinary warship, the crossbowmen of the Right Yiwei Sailor Division had a height advantage, and the Sui army had an absolute advantage in shooting such a bow and crossbow.
Seeing that the shooting was at a loss, Xu Yuanlang hurriedly said loudly: "Bump over, bump over!" ”
I saw that the sailors drove the warship of the warship and crashed headlong into the eight-ship warship of the right-wing sailor, and the huge acceleration impact force knocked the huge eight-ship warship backwards again and again, and the shaking of the hull made many sailor soldiers standing on the deck slide to the ground.
Seeing the enemy's posture, Lai ordered directly: "Hold the deck, don't let the thief army attack!" ”
On the other side, Xu Yuanlang greeted his subordinates in a loud voice and said, "Take the board!" Broadboard! ”
I saw more than a dozen bandits together, carrying a huge wooden plank, lined up on the side of the ship, shouting trumpets, set up on the first or second layer of the eight-ship warship, and then the successive bandits rushed forward with shields, while some fierce bandits simply hooked the pillars or planks of the Sui army's hull with ropes, and rowed over with ropes.
On the Sui side, the front row was interspersed with shield soldiers and lance soldiers to defend against enemy arrows and prevent enemy troops from boarding, followed by crossbowmen, constantly finding gaps and shooting at the enemy, and finally the sword and axe men in single clothes, which were the last hand-to-hand combat strength.
At the beginning of the battle, the Sui army's sailors were on the defensive, taking advantage of the natural advantages of the eight-ship warship, and they had the upper hand, and it was difficult for the bandits to attack the eight-ship warship, and the planks were often knocked off by the opposing lancers, and the ones who hung the ropes would also be shot to death on the spot by the Sui crossbowmen, even if some of the water bandits successfully crossed the eight-ship warship, they were about to face the siege of the Sui army. Although Xu Yuanlang organized several key assaults by the water bandits, he still failed to gain a foothold on any point of the Eight Ships Warship, so that the water bandits could not rush over and had been suffering.
"Haha, sixth brother, this battle is so cool! The thieves can't attack at all, and if they continue to fight like this, the military exploits of the brothers will be lost! Lai Yi pointed to the battle situation in front of him and shouted at Lai.
Seeing that Lai Cheng was always frowning, Lai Yi asked: "Sixth brother, the situation is so good, what are you thinking!?" ”
Lai thought about it carefully and said: "No, most of the thieves fight when they are weak, and run when they are strong, it is said that although this thief army has combat effectiveness, it will not rush up to attack my right Yiwei water division like this, what the hell is this thief leader doing?" ”
Lai Yi smiled: "Maybe the above gave them a death order, and they have to come desperately!" ”
Lai Zhen shook his head and vetoed: "No, there is no direct water army under Li Mi, and this water bandit must be a family of its own." Our army is well-equipped, and there are eight warships here, which are obviously the main force of the naval division, why does this thief leader know that he is invincible, but he still comes forward to fight? Moreover, this kind of battle has always only suffered great losses, and it is impossible to take advantage of it, and it is impossible for the thief leader to attack so desperately! ”
Lai Yi smiled and persuaded: "Sixth brother, no matter what the hell he wants to fight the thief, we will drop ten times with one force, and the strength will crush them, and they will not be able to make any tricks!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Lai's flagship suddenly shook, and the hull shook violently, making the strong Lai Yi stumble and almost fall.
At this moment, there was no collision of enemy ships, where was this shock?
"Scuttling the ship!?" Lai Cheng suddenly thought of it, hurriedly ran to the side of the boat, and leaned out half of his body to look. I saw many bamboo poles floating on the surface of the river, floating on the surface of the water, and there were bubbles rising from the bottom of the water.
Seeing this, Lai immediately shouted urgently: "Order all ships, pick a team of sword and axe men to go into the water and kill the enemy immediately!" ”
The Sui saber and axe hand who got the order did not hesitate to take off his shirt and jumped into the water one after another.
Soon, "red clouds" appeared on the surface of the river, and the corpses of water ghosts that had lost their vital signs floated lightly to the surface.
It turned out that Xu Yuanlang knew that it was impossible to succeed in the battle by taking the side, and this battle was just a disguise, and the killer feature in the secret was these fruits that dived into the water. As early as after approaching the Sui Army's naval division, Xu Yuanlang secretly arranged for the water ghosts to sneak into the water with sharp axes and blades, swim to the bottom of the Sui Army's eight warships, and hollow out the bottom of the ship by digging the boat. The shaking of the flagship just now was caused by a water ghost who had carved a hole in the bottom of the boat, causing the impact caused by the torrential flooding of the river.
"Huh~!" Seeing this scene, Xu Yuanlang's anger was beyond words.
"Big boss, look, the Sui army is transporting armor and riding equipment to cross the river! We rushed over and scuttled their transport, and the iron riders of this ship were reimbursed! Xu Shiren pointed to the transport boat in front of him, which was loaded with armor and riding equipment to cross the river.
"Reimburse you Nima, a stinky pussy~! Before they are reimbursed, Lao Tzu's troops will be wiped out! Xu Yuanlang is in a very bad mood now, so many brothers have died, and he retreats like this, in vain, he is unwilling, but if he does not retreat, the casualties of the brothers will be greater, which puts him in a dilemma.
Suddenly, Xu Yuanlang had an idea, patted Xu Shiren's shoulder, and said loudly: "Haha, brother, there is really you!" ”
After that, Xu Yuanlang ordered loudly: "Brothers, rush over!" Target, the transport ship of the Sui army! ”
The Xu Shui bandits who had been ordered were all relieved, they didn't want to die in vain under the unprovoked attack, and when they heard Xu Yuanlang's order, they retreated faster than the attack, erected their shields, and re-set up their defensive formations.
The sailors in the cabin continued to paddle, preparing to sail towards the Sui army transport ship.
Seeing this, Lai Cheng knew that the enemy's target was the transport ship, but if he ordered to intercept it at this time, he would definitely be a beat slower than the enemy ship, and it would be bad at that time. So, he simply ordered: "Pass my general's order, take the broadside, and the whole army will storm the enemy ship!" ”
