Chapter 342: A Prepared "Encounter"

Lu Wenfu, the chief general of the navy, has a low status in the Lu group, and is not as good as his brother Lu Wenhuan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In this branch of the Lu family, he only has 10,000 acres of cotton fields and thousands of acres of peanut fields.

In terms of earnings for several quarters, he considers himself to be on the low side.

However, if he wins this battle, he will gain more, and if he loses, he knows that he has nothing, which is common sense.

This is also an important gateway to the Great Song Dynasty!

In any case, this battle must be won.

One goes against the wind, the other goes against the wind, and two huge teams fight a prepared "encounter" under similar circumstances.

At this time, Liu Quan, the deputy commander of the Tatar army, like Lu Wenfu, had red eyes, and their ships were all in the front, and the ships were the largest in the entire naval army, and the attack power was also the largest...... However, they were all dragged back to the cabin by their men, because their ships were also the most hit!

If there is no main general at the beginning of the war, this battle cannot be fought...... Because the current style of play is no longer the gang fighting of the past, the main general can stand at the bow of the ship and command.

Both men stayed in the cabin, anxiously listening to the commanders report back and forth on the state of the battle.

Outside their cabins, explosions and the humming of bed crossbows, especially the clatter of lead on the thickened deck, seemed to shake the entire river.

The front lines of the two teams were now more than two hundred paces apart, and bows and crossbows were useless, or arquebuses and tiger cannons were useless.

The first to lose his breath was the deputy commander Liu Quan, who kicked down the deputy who pulled him. Now that you have received dozens of thunderbolts, and the opponent is unscathed, this will greatly affect morale!

He rushed out of the cabin. At a glance, I could see that many of my own ships had been hit by thunderbolts, and the opponent was still raining iron balls!

Liu Quan, the deputy commander, suddenly pulled out the steel knife, and they shouted angrily: "Rush up and fight back, shoot back!" Hit the Great Song Dynasty to eat a full meal, everyone has money to spend!! ”

The snowy steel knife was holding countless knife flowers in the hands of the deputy commander Liu Quan, and the eyes of the sailors were a little red. They withstood the blows of the Song army, and after fighting the losses, they were finally able to close the distance...... They're starting to fight back effectively, too!

The warships of both sides kept bursting into flames, and the roar was incessant. Both sides have prepared plenty of buckets, and if a spot is ignited by a thunderbolt or a bed bolt, it will be extinguished by watering!

Now, they have all adapted to the bloody scene...... It's not like the panic at the beginning.

After all, there are only a few who can hit the ship. A large number of thunderbolts and bed crossbow arrows hit the water. Occasionally, a thunderbolt that falls into the water can explode!

At this time, as the sound of explosions increased, Lu Wenfu couldn't sit still, he threw off and grabbed his deputy and rushed to the deck, and now the two sides were less than 100 steps...... Everyone is starting to compare the density and accuracy of thunderbolts and crossbow arrows!

The density of the thunderbolts on both sides is so dense that they can collide in the air and crash into the river together!

Even the crossbow arrows collide!

The main warships flying the battle flags of the generals on both sides became the focus of the attacks on both sides...... The sailors are also getting bolder, and some of them dare to pick up the iron ball and throw it into the water!

The Thunderbolt's lieutenants also began to cut the fuses short. In this way, there were more fireballs on the ships of both sides. The explosions continued...... The cries of soldiers on both sides also began to increase.

Lu Wenfu also pulled out his steel knife and howled: "Defeat the Tatars, everyone has a field!" ”

Then he ordered a quick sideways swing...... This is the method they discovered during the exercise, when the ships on both sides are too dense, it is best for them to use the weapons on the side decks, especially the Tiger Squat Cannon and the Bed Crossbow to hit the opponent, which is the best way.

However, when they turned the bow of the ship in the midst of the stumbling and mixing, they found that the Tatar sailors on the opposite side were also turning around!

If you look at it from the sky, both of them are slowly turning around, during this period due to too dense, they have bumped into each other from time to time, but they still insist on doing this, the reason is self-evident, they have found this when they are training, even if it is damaged, they have to hit each other more.

Whoever lasts on the water wins!

The eyes of the deputy commander Liu Cheng have begun to burn, and the opponent has also discovered this method, and the effect is better than that of his own fleet!

The combat effectiveness of the warring sides began to increase, and the side decks were already equipped with more weapons than the bows!

A flying crossbow arrow almost hit Lu Zhifu!

A flying thunderbolt hit the gangside of the boat in front of Liu Quan's eyes and bounced back into the river!

Under the action of the current, they slowly approached, and this battle entered the second stage, and the two sides began to fight!

There is no formation, no unified arrangement, only who can last to shoot weapons...... Even the bows and arrows of the Tatar navy and the crossbow arrows of the Great Song navy came in handy.

Both sides fired tiger squat cannons, and the ship that was hit seemed to be suddenly swept by a strong wind, and the firearms of the primary stage exerted their maximum power!

On the decks of the warships on both sides, there were those who lay silently, and there were those who rolled back and forth with screams...... The decks on both sides had turned bloody.

The final result was that the deputy commander Liu Quan's arm took out a crossbow arrow, and Lu Wenfu was scratched on the shoulder by a thunderbolt...... The most fierce pairs of warships on both sides were tangled together, and together they ignited a fire...... This became a wall of fire to prevent the two sides from fighting again, and drifted down the river towards the Tatar navy, but the fire on the ship went to the Great Song navy under the action of the wind......

The two sides did not dare to fight again at this time, they could not be afraid of weapons, but they were afraid of fire...... If you get it, it's all over.

Therefore, both sides hurriedly pulled their sails and turned around and withdrew.

When Lu Wenfu, the commander of the naval army, returned to the naval camp in Xiangyang City, he looked up to the sky and laughed, saying: "Haha, the Tatar naval army has been beaten away by us, and its remnants of the warship will be fought another day!" ”

For a while, there was a lot of cheer in the naval barracks...... Lu Wende, the envoy of Jinghu Establishment, came to visit the camp with all kinds of condolences, and began to reward the meritorious personnel in public, and they lit the fire with the thickness of their arms, and were busy until late.

This is called meritorious service without receiving an overnight reward.

In Lu Wenfu's meeting hall, Lu Wenfu had a sad face, and he said to his eldest brother: "This is really killing a thousand enemies and injuring eight hundred ......."

In this battle, they lost more than 200 boats, counting those who jumped into the water and fled for their lives, a total of 1,000 sailors!

Lu Wenfu said hatefully: "I didn't expect this rebel general who embezzled military funds to build such a powerful naval army!" ”

Lu Wende felt guilty in his heart at this time, before, he had exposed too much of his strength...... However, otherwise, where would their Lu family get a safe and important waterway? Where can you get so much trade?!

If you have a gain, you must have a loss, and it's all because Liu Cheng is extremely good at stealing learning...... (To be continued.) )
