Chapter 359: The Battle of the River Beach
"Kill!" The soldiers of the Great Sui roared like thunder, the murderous spirit rushed into the sky, the cold light moved, and they went to the ferry and river beach on the opposite bank by boat, and wanted to forcibly land. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Dozens of large five-tooth warships, covered with iron sheets, pavilions several floors, stained with silver shining armor, archers stood on the splint mountain, towards the river beach to suppress.
In addition to large warships, there are also small boats, rafts, etc., which are even more numerous, and the horizontal surface stretches for several miles, however, there are not many good places to land, some cliffs, reefs and rocks, it is difficult to land, so they must be concentrated in a few passes, gentle river beaches, and some ferries.
It's a place of contention, and it's also the place where the confrontation is fiercest.
Whoosh!
As if they didn't want money, the arrows from both sides poured out at the enemy.
Poof!
At the same time, there were people who were hit by arrows everywhere, and the soldiers of the Sui army were shot, and the sturdy figures were planted directly into the Liaoshui, the blood gushed out, and the river was dyed red little by little.
The Goguryeo soldiers on the river beach occupied a geographical advantage, but the weapons and equipment were not as good as the Sui army, the number of archers, and the advanced crossbow machine would be weaker, so there were also certain casualties, and the blood water flowed down from the high river beach and also soaked into the water.
Soon, the river was red, the corpses were floating, and all kinds of vivid faces were now lifeless corpses.
Arrows and meteors, the sound of killing on the river shook the sky, the Sui army fought for the crossing, the casualties were huge, and the blood in the cabin slid straight to the soles of the boots.
"Suppression, archer suppression!" The Great Sui Meng General Mai Tie Staff personally boarded a warship and commanded his soldiers and horses to rush forward to kill.
The armor warriors all bent over, hiding behind long shields, dodging the arrows, and now it was a duel between the archers of both sides.
Cold arrows pierce through armor, dense as rain, dodging can not be completely dodged, there will always be people who will be shot by stray arrows, hide in pools of blood, or fall into the river, washed away by splashes.
The soldiers of the Sui army on those rafts opened the way, and almost all of them were destroyed, because they could not dodge, and they could not completely block it, so they became live targets.
After a round of strong attacks, the Sui army suffered heavy casualties.
In an instant, the second charge began, and the ships roared out again, following closely behind, making up for the heavy losses ahead.
The large ships of the first round of reunion had already approached the river beach, but the hull clanged and hit the boulder, and it turned out that the Goguryeo people had placed many pointed boulders in the shallow water in front of the river beach and the ferry to block the large warship from approaching.
"Dive and swim ashore!"
"Throw off the ship's spare raft!"
Some lieutenants and lieutenants commanded their respective military horses to fight for time to cross the river.
However, Goguryeo had already been prepared, and many obstacles were added to all the river beaches, such as deer barriers, thistles, barbs, trenches, horse traps, etc., which caused great trouble for the Sui army to land.
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was far away, seeing the battle on the front line, his face was full of murderous intentions, this group of Goguryeo soldiers resisted stubbornly, and there was no majesty of the millions of lions in the Great Sui at all.
"Give me more troops, clear the obstacles, and land on the riverbank!"
Emperor Yang of Sui issued an order to attack and die, prompting the front-line generals, regardless of casualties, to take the river beach as soon as possible.
"Knock knock!"
The drums of war are beating more and more intensively, shaking the heavens and the earth, inspiring people's spirits, allowing the soldiers to bravely kill the enemy and move forward bravely.
"Poof! Poof! ā
Tens of thousands of figures jumped into the river to rush to the river beach, some of the water was not good, directly choked and drowned, and some jumped down, directly pierced by the arrows shot, and died.
At this time, several catapults that had been erected on the warships threw stones and fire pots to bombard the defenders on the earthen forts on the shore.
The fire jar was filled with fish oil, resin, etc., which were thrown out by lighting a fuse and exploded directly, and the shattered ceramic pieces could produce a piece of lethality and blow away some Goguryeo defenders.
Luo Zhaoyun designed and ordered a batch of chain crossbow machines to be built, and after a row of sharp arrows squeaked and hooked a soul-like string sound, they attacked the defenders on the river beach from the bow of the ship like locusts.
The vanguard warriors of the Great Sui began to land on the shore, but to break through the layers of obstacles, it would definitely take countless corpses of soldiers to fill it.
It was a battlefield of blood and fire, full of soldiers who were charging and shouting to kill the heavens, and corpses lying in pools of blood that would never get up again.
The fighting and reunion here attracted Goguryeo's counterattack offensive, making the river beach more fierce and bloody.
This created an opportunity for the ships in the river, and several large ships sailed past the positions where they had not anchored or anchored, and when they approached the river beach, suddenly some of the cabins suddenly opened from the side, and there were empty seats inside, and there were dense soldiers standing, sliding out of the wooden ladder, and then running down quickly.
Trebuchets were also set up on the shore, and flying stones were also smashed into the mouth of the river beach, earthen forts and wooden towers, and condescending archers continued to devour the lives of the Great Sui soldiers.
Mai Tiezhu and Zhao Cai led the troops to the shore first, commanding the soldiers to clear the obstacles and approaching layer by layer, but they had to pay a huge price before they walked a meter.
"This group of dogs, once they are breached, they will definitely be bloodied!" Mai Tiezhu roared, and the soldiers in front of him were killed and wounded too much, making his face full of murderous energy, and his face was blue.
"Pull out the deer barrier, fill in the trench, and let the iron cavalry charge behind!"
The soldiers who rushed forward in the first few waves were destined to be cannon fodder, falling in batches, and filling in waves, one after another, with dead and wounded.
How many boys from the Central Plains have lost their souls in Liaodong today, and wars are always so cruel! (To be continued.) )
