The building boat seems to be mighty, but in fact, it is extremely inflexible and slow to turn. This is also the reason why before the advent of steel steamers, sailors often fought with small and big battles. The shipwreck is extremely simple, and only needs to be attacked by fire.

The reason why Zong Han sent a team of three thousand people with arrows made of nitrate was precisely to attack Li Bao with fire.

Zhou Yi and Meng Lin are all people from the rivers and lakes, and of course they have heard of the name of the mixed river dragon. However, they had never seen Li Bao crisscrossing the seas, and they couldn't help but be a little anxious when they saw the golden soldiers on the shore drawing their bows and shooting rockets at the big ship.

But then what stunned them was that one after another rockets shot up the ship, burned up the phosphorus and nitrate on the arrow, and immediately extinguished. Thousands of rockets did not cause any damage to the ship, which was still swimming against the current.

It was the first time that Zhou Yi and Meng Lin saw a ship that was not afraid of fire attacks, and they all looked at Li Bao with admiring eyes, and secretly said in their hearts, they really deserved to be mixed river dragons.

The golden soldiers on the shore were completely stunned. Seeing that the rockets that hit the ship did not work anything, they simply stopped shooting. Some funny Jin soldiers raised their swords on the shore, screaming loudly, trying to scare Li Bao into turning around and heading east.

Li Bao pointed to a golden soldier in a thousand household costumes, and said impatiently, "Count this guy the loudest!" Bring me a bow and let him eat my arrows! ”

Li Bao used an iron tire bow with the power of two stones. He rounded his bow with his arms, and with a whoosh, long arrows shot like meteors into the riverbank. But his arrow was different from other people's arrows, in addition to its speed, it also made an extremely terrible horn sound in the air. It's not the sound of any bow and arrow breaking through the sky, it's indeed the horn of a pirate attack.

Even though Jin Bing Qianhu heard the sound of the arrow, he didn't have the ability to dodge Li Bao's fatal arrow, and he didn't even scream, so he turned over and fell off the horse.

As Li Bao's bow and arrow were shot, the top layer of the building ship suddenly erected trebuchets. Although trebuchets have appeared since the Three Kingdoms period, Li Bao's trebuchets are completely different from the common trebuchets. His trebuchet was extremely small, with a twisted mane rope attached to the ship's sturdy wooden frame. The lower end of the throwing lever is inserted into the rope, and the upper end has a loading bowl. When loading, the rope is tightened, and the lever is pulled almost horizontally by the winch. When it was time to cast, the lever was forcefully slammed against the beam of the transom frame, and the crockpot was thrown along the ballistic trajectory of the crossbow. The trebuchet was learned by Li Bao during his war with the Arab pirates, who had learned the technique from a place called Europa.

This trebuchet is not only smaller than the trebuchet in the Central Plains, but also has an extremely long projection distance. Especially when thrown condescendingly on the building boat, it can throw a fifty-pound stone 800 meters away, which can almost be compared with the god arm crossbow of the Great Song Dynasty. But what Li Bao threw this time was not stones, but black crockpots. The black crockpot contained all the oil purchased from the Arabian pirates. A clay pot weighs about 30 pounds. With the sound of cannons, one by one the clay pots drew a black arc in the air, flying high above the heads of the golden soldiers, shattering 1,200 meters away, accompanied by a crisp cracking sound, a roaring fire, burning on the snow.

This immortal-style weapon obviously surprised the Jurchen warriors who had just come out of the primeval forest. Many Jurchen warriors reined in their horses, looked at the flames on the snow, and muttered, "Immortal heaven, this is the devil's torch." ”

And the head of the hundred households, who reacted quickly, hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up and let Zong Hanbo send a great shaman over." The Song people are going to use demon methods. ”

There were also Jurchen officers who laughed, "You're afraid of a fart!" Look where these Song pigs lit the fire. It's two miles away from us. What are you afraid of! The Song people are really pitiful, even if they invited the immortals, they are also blind immortals. ”

Many of the Jurchen soldiers woke up from their astonishment, and they all immediately laughed nonchalantly. Yes, Senho-sama is right. What's the use of no matter how powerful the immortal fire is, it can't burn on our Jurchen warriors anyway.

Li Baoke didn't care about the shouting of the golden soldiers on the shore, he visually measured the distance of the crockpot throwing, and then blew a conch hanging around his neck. The lookouts on each ship immediately waved different flags. Nearly 100 clay pots flew over the heads of the Jurchen soldiers again, and landed at a distance of 500 to 1,200 meters.

"That's it!" Li Bao whistled triumphantly. "Brethren, speed up your march towards the pontoon. Deputy Marshal Zhang was about to lose his hold. ”

Li Bao set fire to the snow one after another, first making Zhou Yi and Meng Lin puzzled, and when he let the clay pot fall far and near, Zhou and Meng finally understood. It turned out that Li Bao was testing how the trebuchet would not burn the Protectors who were forced to be only five meters away from the ship before he arrived at the Protector Army's position, but also let the Jin soldiers who were chasing the Protectors become burning men.

Zhou Yi Menglin understood, and of course the two golden soldiers on the shore also understood. They were stunned for a moment, and immediately beat their horses like flies, and went to report to Zong Han, where Shuai Qi was located one thousand meters away from the bank of the Yellow River.

In fact, there was no need for them to report the news, Zong Han saw that a fire could be eerily lit on the snow, and he already understood Li Bao's intentions. Zong Han's heart sank, what kind of weapon did this big sea coward come up with? What's more, how could the small trebuchet on his ship throw a heavy object so far?

Wanyan Xiyin's face suddenly changed from ecstasy to depression. "Zong Hanbo is extremely fierce, is it really the endless people's army?"

The faces of Jin 13 and several 10,000 households were also extremely ugly. An army like this, with divine soldiers descending from heaven at every desperate point, is often the prerogative of the victors. Just like Wanyan Aguda fought with the Liao State for the first time, a strong wind blew from the rear of the Jin soldiers, blowing so that the Liao soldiers on the opposite side could not open their eyes, so that the Jin soldiers won a complete victory, and in one fell swoop achieved a psychological advantage over the Liao soldiers. Unexpectedly, now Changshengtian doesn't seem to help the Jurchen warriors.

Jin 13 gritted his teeth and said, "Big brother, the boat is almost here." Do you need to blow the horn to get Samouru Wanhu to withdraw? ”

Zong Han shook his head resolutely. "No, you don't. beat the drums, let Samoulu work harder, and completely mix with the Protector Army. I don't believe this coward, dare to burn it with his own people. ”

As the golden soldiers beat the golden drum with an eager rhythm, the golden soldiers, who already had a great advantage, became even more crazy. Sa Moulu held his bloody saber and shouted loudly, "Sons, let's destroy this group of Song pigs who don't know whether they are alive or dead under the witness of Zong Hanbo's fierceness!" Finish the face and fight the bones! ”

"Finish Yan Akuba!"

All the golden soldiers shouted this slogan that made them proud. Wanyan Aguda is their god of war, their emperor, and their courage.

But the Protectors also went crazy. Because their reinforcements have arrived. Although Zhang Xian couldn't remember who the reinforcements were for a while, the flag of the Protector Army on the building boat clearly indicated the identity of the incoming army.

So Zhang Xian also raised his arms and shouted, "Brothers, our reinforcements have arrived." Work harder and beat this wave of golden dogs back. ”

In fact, Zhang Xian didn't need to refuel, and the Protector Army who was forced to the bank of the Yellow River had no way to retreat. It's just a battle. There's just death. Li Heng, Hua Chaoxi, and Zhang Lei, the three generals, all rushed to the forefront of the military formation, relying on their strong martial arts, specializing in hunting the most ferocious warriors of the Jin soldiers. The three of them were already scarred. Xu Xuan, the head of the regiment who was born in a literati, was seriously injured and unconscious, and was lying on the pontoon bridge of the Yellow River. On the pontoon bridge of the Yellow River, there were no sound protectors, only seriously wounded protectors. Once the entire army is wiped out, these wounded will sink into the Yellow River along with the blown up Yellow River pontoon bridge.

Li Bao stood at the top of the ship, looking at the corpses in a radius of several miles, and couldn't help but change his face, "It seems that I'm still a step late." ”

Zhou Yi also said sadly, "The Protector Army has at least more than 10,000 casualties. ”

Li Bao's deputy, Wan Nianqing, said admiringly, "The combat power of the First Division is really strong. Look at the corpses all over the ground, the golden dog has broken at least 30,000 people. ”

Meng Lin said a little anxiously, "Don't talk nonsense here. Hurry up and fire. ”

Meng Lin said this a little unkindly. This is the command ship of the sailor, except for Li Bao and Wan Nianqing, even if Yue Fei comes, he has no right to command Li Bao how to fight. So Li Bao and Zhou Yi were stunned. Wan Nianqing's face showed obvious displeasure. Wan Nian Qing said in his heart, even if you are a famous Meng Crazy Knife on the rivers and lakes, aren't you also chased to our ship by a group of killers?

As soon as Meng Lin said this, he regretted it a little. He didn't understand why he had been a little frightened since last night, and he was always a little worried about his father who was far away in Caozhou. But if you want to make Meng Sen speak humble, it is also impossible.

Zhou Yi was about to make a round, and Li Bao smiled generously. "Wan Nianqing, let's fire! Let's have a big fire to roast the golden dog. ”

Wan Nianqing saw that more than a dozen building boats were already lined up on the Yellow River, and immediately no longer hesitated, and shot a hollow long arrow into the air. At a sharp whistle, dozens of small trebuchets fired crockpots again.

The boat was less than 100 meters away from the bank of the Yellow River, and the Protector Army had been compressed into a tight mass by the Jin soldiers, about a mile wide, but only 400 meters long. Five hundred meters away, there was a team of 1,000 golden soldiers galloping on horseback.

However, when the crockpot was projected, most of the 1,000-strong Jin soldiers had withdrawn to a distance of thousands of kilometers and were replaced by Han'er cavalry. Don't look at these Han cavalry and the Protector Army have the same roots and ancestors, and they rush to kill, but they are more active than the Jin soldiers. Because they want to use military exploits in exchange for the appreciation of the Jurchen uncle.

The Han army, Meng Tianjun, led by three hundred elite guards, ignored the boats that appeared in the Yellow River, ignored the fire that was still burning in the snow downstream, and the wind took Zhang Xian directly. "Brethren, follow me. Kill Zhang Xian, and the whole army will be rewarded. ”

Meng Tianjun's voice was very loud, far louder than the sound of the crockpot breaking in the air. But someone's voice was louder than him, and a black clay pot fell in the bush of his own soldiers, and only a bang was heard, and the four personal soldiers who were full of meritorious thoughts had turned into burning men.

The four of them screamed almost at the same time, and immediately suppressed their loud voices. It's not just the four of them. Only a small half of the first wave of fire pots fell on the snow, and most of them fell on the charging cavalry. In the cavalry queue of more than 10,000 charges, nearly a hundred crazy fire men immediately appeared.

They screamed, or galloped aimlessly, or rolled off their horses, and were trampled to death by the cavalry behind. And the cavalry who trampled on them soon found that their war horse had also become a fire horse.

When the officers and soldiers of the sailor division threw out nearly a thousand clay pots, the Jurchen cavalry's frantic attack on the Protectors came to a complete standstill. Thousands of charred corpses, thousands of fire horses galloping in the cavalry, and more than a thousand comrades who were turning into fire men, howling in their ears, even the most ferocious Jurchen elite horsemen were dumbfounded, and they could no longer lift the weapons in their hands.
