416 Water Warfare
Re-ascended to Junshan Point General Platform, and saw the bottom of the stratus open;
The fighting ships are across the sun and the moon, and the iron horses are galloping. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The generals are rich and poor in a hundred battles, and the blood is full of dust;
Where is the heroic soul? The waves are coming in the silver plate!
This poem is a description of the plot of the peasant rebel army Yang Mo in Junshan in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Not only during the Southern Song Dynasty, but also in history since Emperor Yang of Sui built the Grand Canal, the entire Chinese land has truly entered the period of great unification, and the south has since been truly integrated into the ruling center of the entire dynasty. And taking Junshan is the first step to break through Yueyang City.
"Dong Qi, this battle is related to the success or failure of our hundreds of thousands of soldiers in this southward mission, so I hope you can take this Junshan in one fell swoop." Looking at Dong Qi wearing armor in front of him, Shi Lei said in a solemn tone.
"Hahaha, although my lord can rest assured, the last general does not dare to guarantee anything else, but it is still easy to take this Jun Mountain, this time has been so aggrieved, the brothers have long been impatient, all, my lord, you just have to watch it, soon you will be able to stand on the top of Jun Mountain, drink tea, and enjoy the scenery of Dongting Lake." Dong Qi said with a laugh.
After a series of preparations in the early stage, Shi Lei and others knew that the time had come to encircle and annihilate Azig and the Qing army going south, and after discussion, they were finally ready to launch the whole army and start a general attack on the Qing army, and Dong Qi was the commander-in-chief of this general attack.
"Woo woo"
"Knock knock, knock knock"
In the sound of gongs and drums, a pair of fully armed Ming soldiers, with neat steps, launched a general attack on Junshan, of course, the Junshan mentioned here is not only Junshan Island, but also includes the Junshan area across the river from Yueyang City, in this place, because the river is vertical and horizontal, the lake is rippling, although it is not like Wuchang City, there are lakes and rivers everywhere, but the geographical advantage is also very obvious, and more importantly, there are still peaks here, although not high, But for the attacking side, it is extremely difficult.
Of course, such a wide place, the Qing army could not all use them to defend, so, under the order of Azig, the main place for the Qing army to defend is the land of Junshan Island, the reason why it is necessary to defend here, not only because the geographical location of Junshan Island is very suitable for defense, but more importantly, because Junshan Island, surrounded by water, can also get the support of the naval army when the war is lost.
Of course, during this period of time, the Ming army's attack, although it did not use all its strength, but it was not really useless, at least, except for a few important places on Junsha Island, most of the Junshan land has fallen into the hands of the Ming army, and this time, under the pressure of the Ming army, the fall of these places is only a matter of time, which is why Dong Qi dared to promise Shi Lei so much just now.
There was no land of people, and just when Dong Qi led the army to launch a final attack on the remaining places in Junshan, the battle on the surface of Dongting Lake also began.
.................................
The end of the year is approaching, and it also represents the end of the coldest wax moon of the year, but even so, the weather is still extremely cold, originally, Yuezhou City and Dongting Lake belong to the south, even if it is cold, it is a little warmer than the north, but this situation, for the naval army on the battlefield, there is no difference.
Since the beginning of the battle of Yueyang City, under the order of Yang Dayan, his sailors and warships have been divided into several parts, respectively on the Dongting Lake to wander and patrol, the purpose is to prevent the Ming army's ships from crossing the Dongting Lake to Yueyang City, of course, since this period of time, because of the Ming army's concerns, Yang Dayan and his navy are still very comfortable, every day after a routine inspection on the lake, they quickly return to the camp, stay in the warm tent, drink and gamble, can be described as happy like a fairy.
The same is true today, Wang Dabangmal, driving a rush, leading six or seven small red horse boats, is slowly patrolling on Dongting Lake, Wang Dabangmao is different from other people, he doesn't like to drink, gamble, the only thing he likes is to drive his own warship, the feeling of floating on the lake, in today's words, this is a natural navy.
Of course, Wang Dabang's mallet does not mean that there are no ideals, his ideal is to be a guerrilla general quickly, of course, this is not to say that he likes to be an official, but because, only when he becomes a guerrilla general, can he drive the best warship, that is, a three-story ship, of course, the building ship in the Ming Dynasty is different from the previous building ship, the building ship in the Ming Dynasty is actually a small Fu boat, that is, when Zheng He went to the West, he took a small version of the Fu boat.
If it is said that during the Southern Song Dynasty, China's navigation industry has been developed enough, then the Ming Dynasty period is the time when this development is rapidly regressing, in the Southern Song Dynasty, Chinese merchants have been able to build large sea ships, so as to go south to the South Seas for trade, and in the early Ming Dynasty, Zheng He led an invincible fleet in the world at that time, wandering on the sea, but after a series of power struggles in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty's shipping quickly broke down, As a result, the original advanced shipbuilding technology has become regressed for many years.
As a result, up to now, there are only a few warships that can be used for conquest, which are the most powerful three-story ships, that is, simplified versions of the Fu ship, this kind of ship, about twenty meters long and about twelve or thirteen meters wide, the ship is divided into three layers, which is also the reason why it is called a three-story ship, this kind of ship looks huge, but in fact, it does not have much combat effectiveness, but when it lacks enough technical attack, it is already a very great giant, but even because of this, there are not many such three-story ships, Although Yang Dayan claimed to have more than 3,000 warships under his command, there were actually only a few dozen of these three-story ships, and most of the rest were small warships.
And second only to the three-story ship is the king of the mallet driven this kind of rush, this kind of rush from the appearance, and the ships of later generations have a bit of similarity, of course, this is just the appearance of the thought, this kind of ship in the water station can be said to be the most important thing, because of the scarcity of three-story ships, this kind of length of about ten meters, about seven or eight meters wide, and the speed of the rush, has become the main force of the war, in addition, this shape of the ship, is indeed suitable for combat, whether it is the use of the pat, or the collision, has been in other aspects, it can be said that it can be used in all aspects, which has also led to the fact that this kind of ship has not been eliminated.
In addition to the three-story ship and the rush, the rest is some small ships, the larger one has five or six meters long red horse boats, and the smaller ones have three or four meters in size yachts, which are used to transmit news and perform some special tasks, and these three kinds of ships are the most important kinds of main ships in the entire Ming Dynasty at present, of course, this is only the warships in the inland lakes, if it is at sea, there are too many warships, it can be described as countless.
While feeling the comfortable feeling of the cold wind blowing across his cheeks in the fast movement of the warship, Wang Dabang mallet was thinking about his heart, don't look at Wang Dabang's reputation sounds very vulgar, but in fact, Wang Dabang mallet is indeed a person with a heart, and even he spent a few days in private school, if it weren't for the peasant army sweeping the world later, he might be a promising person now.
Therefore, Wang Dabangmao is very dissatisfied with his current status, but even if he is not satisfied, there is no way, once when Zuo Liangyu controlled the army, although the entire Zuojia army is not strong, but as long as there are benefits, they can still divide some of them, which is also the reason why Wang Dabangmao can become the current position of a hundred households, but since Zuo Liangyu died, the entire Zuojia army has become a mess, Zuo Mengeng is young, his power is insufficient, and he cannot convince the public, which leads to the factions in the Zuojia army. It's very chaotic, in the entire Zuojia army, there is no such atmosphere as before, but it has become a faction to stand in line, as long as you are willing to take refuge in me, I will promote you, if you are not willing to take refuge in me, I will not pay attention to you at all, no matter how great your credit is, it is useless.
Originally, Wang Dabang thought that he would be able to have a good future with the powerful Yang Dayan and others who followed him, but after this period of observation, he regretted it a little in his heart, although Yang Dayan and others seemed to be strong, but they were not capable, compared with the strong Ming army, they were simply a group of rabble, so Wang Dabangmalt knew that Yang Dayan and others would definitely fail in the future, it was only a matter of time, and he had been thinking about how to avoid this disaster. Find a bright future for yourself.
Just when Wang Dabang was racking his brains and thinking about how to find a good future, suddenly, the deputy next to him suddenly shouted loudly, "My lord, my lord, look, there is a warship in front, yes, ah, it is the warship of the Ming army." ”
Hearing the deputy's words, Wang Dabang opened his eyes suddenly, and immediately, he saw that not far from his warship, a rushing like him was stopping there, and what made him even more curious was that there was only one boat in this rush, and there was no small boat such as the Red Horse Boat used to transmit news and assist him.
"My lord, what should we do, should we go back and tell Lord Yang, or should we go up and sink them directly, so as to get a credit." Just as Wang Dabang mallet carefully observed the rush of the Ming army, the deputy on one side spoke.
Hearing the deputy's words, Wang Dabang thought for a while, and then said, "It seems that this rush should be passing by here, it should be going to do something, but I didn't expect it to run into a piece with us, since we bumped into him, so it is not good to entertain him, how can he be worthy of God's gift, come here, order the red horse boat to go quickly, surround this rush, don't let him run, and then, let the brothers prepare things, and rush down with all their strength for the officer, now we are downwind, and they are headwind, and, They're still in place, and we only need one charge to take him down. ”
After having the order of the king's big stick mallet, the red horse boats that followed him quickly rushed towards the opposite side, and the Qing army, which was originally lazy on the deck, also quickly made preparations, and the slap was raised, bows and arrows and other things were also prepared, and immediately, the entire warship accelerated and rushed forward.
It's a pity that Wang Dabang, who was in the excitement, and the Qing soldiers around him didn't see that not far from here, a team of warships was moored there, as if they were watching in front of the TV, watching all this happening on the lake.
Under the effect of smooth sailing, Wang Dabang's rampage rushed quickly, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it with electric flint, but the opposite rush seemed to be scared silly, so stupid and stunned to stay in place, and would not even move, this situation made Wang Dabangmalt and others more convinced that the rush of this Ming army was just a novice, which strengthened their desire to take them down and establish meritorious deeds.
And at this time, as Wang Dabang's mallet approached quickly, the rush that was moored in place did not look like it was collapsing, but was sitting in full swing.
"Hurry up, the enemy ship on the opposite side is already within the maximum range, load the shells, prepare to fire, and the gunners begin to measure." An officer who looked like a squad leader of the Ming army said to the many soldiers who were busy on the ship.
As he shouted, some soldiers were busy loading a small gun at the bow of the ship with this ammunition, and the gunners next to him were using various tools to carry out the work of measurement, and after a while, all the work had been done, just waiting for the officer's order, ready to fire.
Seeing that all the preparations were ready, the officer said to one of the guns, "Now start measuring the position, a shell, prepare, fire." ”
Following the officer's order, one of the gunners lit the gun's twist, and then, a loud noise was heard, and the cannon let out a roar, and then a cannonball flew into the distance.
