I have encountered Jiang bandits more than once or twice.

However, except for the first time, no river bandits took the initiative to attack the warship, and only a few times did the river bandits try to attack the merchant ships escorted by the warships, but they were also driven away by the warships.

Wang Pu didn't expect that today's river bandits would come directly towards the warship.

What I didn't expect was that there were three boats in this group of river bandits today, and the number of people seemed to be about forty or fifty people.

"Many men, the port side will definitely be attacked by bandits, you be careful."

Wang Pu was a little worried about many male soldiers, not because he didn't believe in the memories of many men, but because it was the first time they encountered the enemy, and Wang Pu still remembers the situation of his first encounter with the enemy.

Many men said coldly: "Take care of yourself." ”

Wang Pu saw that many men were still unconvinced, but he was relieved a lot, as long as he was holding back a lot of strength in his heart, he was stimulated by the general sentence, in order to prove that he was not a coward, he overcame the tension and began to fight back.

If many men can calmly meet the enemy because of this, then Wang Pu hopes that many men will be more dissatisfied.

"Ready!"

Wang Pu didn't care about other aspects, but only shouted to his soldiers.

Although there are only six people in total, Wang Pu believes that his soldiers can handle it.

I saw that a few soldiers were not much nervous, and as soon as they heard about the preparations, they immediately picked up their guns and stared at the outside of the ship with their eyes firmly on the boat.

The river bandit boat outside the boat was getting closer and closer, and there were many more people than they had encountered last time, and they had been coming straight to the bow of the boat, but they suddenly separated dozens of feet away, and two on the left and two on the right, this was to surround them.

So it seems. The Jiang bandits were planning to attack them from the left and right directions, Wang Pu looked at the stern of the boat, and Chen Baodi led people to wait for them. Although the probability of encountering Jiang bandits at the stern of the boat is not large, Wang Pu still seeks stability. did not let Chen Baodi give up the stern.

Zhang Dawei steered, and at this time he saw that the enemy ship was approaching, so he asked people to lower the sails, but they had not yet dropped anchor, because they were worried that after anchoring, the Jiang bandits would not attack the warship, but would attack the merchant ships. So it's better to be careful.

Jiang Bandit really didn't play tricks this time, so he rushed straight over, and then attacked directly.

Wang Pu felt that he was blinded all of a sudden.

The two bandit ships swung from side to side, sandwiching the warship in the middle, and then they began to shoot arrows wildly.

To be precise, shooting crossbow arrows, there were dozens of crossbows on the opponent's ship, and the flying arrows were suddenly endless, so that Wang Pu didn't dare to raise his head.

Everyone crouched under the ship's side, but there were still arrows, because some of the crossbow arrows flew over the port side and hit many of the men's team under starboard. There were also crossbow arrows that crossed the starboard side and hit Wang Pu's team under the port side, but the front and rear bows and sterns were not attacked for the time being.

Wang Pu was so pressed that he didn't dare to raise his head at all, he had no command experience. At this time, he was also very flustered, and his eyes were looking around.

But seeing that Lao Zhang, who was at the helm, was very calm at this time, leaning sideways against the side of the ship in front of him, taking advantage of the fact that there were no bandit ships attacking here, he secretly showed his head to observe.

Lao Zhang's performance made Wang Pu suddenly feel a lot more at ease.

"Ahh

At this time, there was a sudden exclamation, it was a soldier next to him.

Wang Pu hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, are you hurt?" ”

The soldier fumbled and pulled a thank-you bolt from his shirt. The bolts are short, just over a foot long, and have no feathers. The stability of crossbow arrows is therefore not as good as that of bows and arrows, and short distances are okay. The long distance is much worse, this is on the river, unobstructed, the wind is strong, and the crossbow arrows fly high warships, so the strength is much smaller, and they didn't shoot through the mandarin duck jacket.

But this was just a fluke, Wang Pu saw that there were already several people lying on the ground and howling in pain, obviously not lightly injured.

Wang Pu sighed secretly, at this time, he did not gloat at all because many men were hit, but felt very bad, and at this time, everyone felt that they were a team under heavy pressure.

Many men also looked at him at this time, and the look they showed seemed to be concerned about Wang Pu's side, and faintly gave people a feeling of asking for help, when Wang Pu looked at him, suddenly many men were shy, and quickly turned around, not looking at this side, clinging to the side of the boat, and pressing down their heads to avoid the rain of arrows.

Wang Pu was looking at Chen Baodi and Song Kun, the two of them were no different from when they first met Jiang Bandits, they were both standing by the boat in a daze, not knowing what to do.

Wang Pu wanted to remind these two people, but at this time he was extremely flustered, the sound of the river wind, shouting, wailing, mixed with the sound of rain of arrows, the shouting could no longer be heard, and it was unrealistic to remind Wang Pu in the past, his side was the focus now, and he didn't dare to leave his position at all.

Suddenly, Wang Pu felt as if the rain of arrows had stopped, looked at Lao Zhang, and saw that Lao Zhang was still looking at the stern of the boat, but he did not remind himself.

Wang Pu had to venture up by himself, and found that someone was climbing the warship, and a few hooks didn't know when they hooked the side of the ship.

Wang Pu wanted to cut the rope, but when he saw that the fastest climber was about to board the boat, he couldn't help but shout and stabbed the river bandit in the chest.

Then Wang Pu felt a pain in his shoulder, and a crossbow arrow hit him in the shoulder, and it came from behind.

This arrow obviously came from the port side, but I didn't expect that the river bandits here had already begun to climb, and they were still shooting crossbows over there.

Probably because they were on both sides of the warship, and the warship was too large, they couldn't communicate with each other.

Wang Pu pulled out the crossbow arrow in pain, and saw that although the big arrow did not penetrate the flesh, it hooked a trace of his flesh, and the pain was very painful.

"Get up, kill the bandits!"

Wang Pu shouted, and several of his subordinates stood up and started to fight with their guns.

It happened that several Jiang bandits showed their heads at the same time, and two of them were directly stabbed in the head, and although one was not stabbed, he let go of his hand in fright and fell.

Another finally jumped onto the boat, only to be stabbed to death by two guns at the same time.

Wang Pu was relieved a lot, the second time he killed the enemy, it was much better than the first time, as long as he was not nervous, they contacted tens of thousands of assassinations. It's enough to kill any bandits.

The crossbow bolts on the port side had also stopped, and it was clear that the other side had already begun to climb, but the time was about the same. Probably the better, as to how to do it at the same time. That's not difficult, the better you shoot as many arrows as you can, the faster you shoot on the starboard side, the starboard side will attack first, the port side will shoot slower, and the port side will attack later.

Wang Pu was thrown into battle, and he didn't care about this, so he asked five soldiers to line up in a wall formation. When he saw one of them, he stabbed one, and Wang Pu himself took a waist knife and began to cut the rope of the flying claw.

There were too many ropes, they couldn't cut them, and the Jiang bandits kept throwing them up, and some ropes were cut, and Wang Pu found that no one climbed the rope at all, so soon Wang Pu gave up this futile thing, and like a soldier, he picked up a spear to form a formation to kill the enemy.

Jiang Bandit made a lot of money this time. Three ships were dispatched, and each of them had thirty or forty people, which was almost a hundred.

And Wang Pu is here. It happened that there were recruits, and each team drew some people to leave, and all of them were not satisfied.

There are only six people in Wang Pu's team, many men are better, there are only nine, Chen Baodi is ten, and only Song Kun is full.

But the reason why those two men have more people is because of the poor training level of their subordinates, so they really have to rely on themselves and many men.

Wang Pu didn't know how many people he had killed. I only know that there are at least ten people who were stabbed and fell into the water. But the Jiang bandits were still boarding the ship.

It's strange, there's no reason to kill so many people. There are also people who come to die.

Suddenly, Wang Pu heard the sound of shouting and killing behind him, and couldn't help but look back, and couldn't help but feel a big rage, many men on the side, there were actually four or five people on the boat, and four or five people were all wearing iron armor, and they were not ordinary soldiers at first glance.

Many of the male soldiers were not bad, and they lined up to assassinate them up and down, but the opponent was covered in iron armor, and he couldn't pierce it, but instead squeezed many men out of the way, forcibly occupied a small area on the boat, and then there were constantly river bandits rushing up from the gap.

Wang Pu immediately looked forward, where Song Kun was stunned.

Wang Pu shouted: "Song Kun, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up!" ”

Song Kun came to his senses, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and shouted: "Form a formation, charge!" ”

After that, his soldiers charged in a wall formation, and because the ship was a little bumpy, by the time they arrived to support many men, the formation was already out of order.

Wang Pu was stunned for a moment, and found that suddenly there was a river bandit rushing up from his side, but this river bandit had no iron armor to protect himself, and he was quickly killed by himself, and finally there was no more river bandit climbing on the starboard side.

Wang Pu cautiously probed the probe and found that the boat next to him was far away from the way and went around the back.

Wang Pu's eyes immediately fell on Chen Baodi, who was guarding the stern of the boat.

Chen Baodi led people along the stern side of the ship to form a V-shaped structure, and in the middle of them was Zhang Dawei, who was at the helm.

However, Zhang Dawei was not idle, and also noticed the bandit ship coming around.

Suddenly, Zhang Dawei shouted: "Raise the sails!" ”

The other three veterans immediately pulled the sail on the bow of the boat, and Zhang Dawei swung the rudder violently, and the hull of the ship suddenly tilted to the left, and everyone never stood firmly, staggering from side to side, and even the two river bandits who had just climbed onto the side of the boat were thrown down.

But soon a shock to the hull was felt, and quite a few people fell.

Wang Pu was also a stumbling man, holding on to the side of the boat tightly, and couldn't help complaining about Lao Zhang in his heart.

At this time, when I looked back, I found that the Jiang bandits' boat had completely reached the stern, not completely driving over, but because the big boat turned around and threw the bandit boat to the stern.

"Pull the sails again!"

Zhang Dawei shouted again.

This time, Wang Pu had a long eye and immediately grabbed the side of the ship.

At the same time, start checking the battle situation.

First of all, there were many men, Song Kun's soldiers and many male soldiers, and even Jiang bandits were mixed together, obviously the violent shaking just now made everyone huddle together.

Many men were shouting for the whole team.

But suddenly the boat shook again, Wang Pu couldn't help but wonder, as if the boat had hit something, could it be a reef, but where was there a reef in the middle of the river.

Thinking that Wang Pu's eyes suddenly lit up, and after looking, there was no enemy on the starboard side at all, so he simply rushed to the port side with his own soldiers to support.

Accumulating his strength, Wang Pu rushed over, and then rushed, his spear stabbed fiercely on an ironclad river bandit.

First I felt a sinking in my hand, then I made a screeching sound, and then I felt that my hand was loose, and the head of the gun had been deeply pierced into the other party's body.

Wang Pu pulled out the spear violently, and a stream of blood shot out along the blade of the spear, refracting a red in the sun, and when he pulled out the head of the spear, it brought out a blood mist, and the color in the sun looked very beautiful.

Wang Pu was about to attack the other, when he felt the boat shake again, and he was careless, so he fell to the ground and threw several steps.

Getting up with a spear, Wang Pu's face was pale, and he couldn't help but curse.

I ran to the side of the ship to take a look, and the anger in my heart suddenly disappeared.

I saw that there were nearly 20 river bandits falling on the river, one bandit boat was smashed into pieces, and the other bandit boat was knocked out of a hole, and the river bandits were desperately trying to fill the loophole.

And there are no more river bandits climbing on the side of the ship, and even if there were just now, they probably fell into the water in the three collisions.

Now there are only seven or eight river bandits left on the boat who are still resisting, and four of them are wearing iron armor, which is a big problem, and the others are not to be worried.

Thinking of this, Wang Pu had an idea again, looked at the scene, it was already a chaotic battle, and he couldn't form a team, so he simply rushed up alone again and stabbed an ironclad river bandit again.

This time, he hit the door directly, and the Jiang bandit was killed immediately.

Just as he was about to attack the second one, he was suddenly hit by someone, it was a soldier in Song Kun's team, and although the rocking warship did not shake again, it had been rocking.

He didn't attack the Jiang bandits, and was almost slashed by the Jiang bandits, but fortunately, the Jiang bandits were stabbed in time by unknown soldiers.

At this time, the scene recovered slightly, the Jiang bandits were forced to the side of the ship, and the soldiers outside gradually formed a circular encirclement, but the team was completely disrupted, Wang Pu was not his own soldiers on both sides, and he didn't have time to tell whose subordinates it was, anyway, they were all assassinating indiscriminately with spears, some assassinating the chest according to custom, some assassinating the legs, and some assassinating the head.

The Jiang bandits are stubbornly resisting with a few ironclad elites as the core, but they are still getting fewer and fewer, and they can't withstand the attacks of opponents who are several times more numerous than them, but the Jiang bandits are quite tenacious and brave, fortunately there are only a few, if all the Jiang bandits climb up, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Wang Pu was a little lucky, fortunately today, Lao Zhang had a wit and knew how to hit a small boat with a big boat, otherwise he would be more and less lucky today.

"Kill!"

As the last Jiang bandit suddenly fell to his knees, all the Jiang bandits fell, and Wang Pu breathed a sigh of relief.

I had time to look outside and found that a bandit boat was moving away, one was completely shattered, the other was also capsizing, and the river bandits on the boat jumped into the water one after another.

"Uncle Zhang, let's get people's heads!"

Wang Pu sighed, for the first time, he didn't call Lao Zhang, but called Uncle Zhang, and saw that the river bandits who were not dead swimming and running away, and there were still some dead corpses floating on the river, which were slowly drifting away, these were all war exploits, it would be a pity if they ran away, Wang Pu immediately suggested Zhang Dawei.

Zhang Dawei nodded: "Lower the sail, anchor!" (To be continued).
