In the vast sea area northwest of Mayi, several warships flying the flag of the Great Song Dynasty are attacking a pirate warship flying the pirate flag. Pen&Fun&Pavilion www.biquge.info\qΒ5\
A Great Song Dynasty Fighting Ship crashed into the pirate ship from the side, although it did not sink the pirate ship, but it destroyed the pirate ship's maneuvering ability, making it difficult for the pirate ship to move an inch, and it could only passively defend against the attack of the Great Song warship with the tide.
Around the pirate ship, four Great Song warships tightly surrounded the enemy, hundreds of Great Song Dynasty Navy drew bows and arrows, sniping all the outcropping pirates, and hundreds of naval officers, armed with knives and axes and other weapons, with a fierce and crazy face, crossed the board connecting the enemy and our warships, rushed to the pirate ship, searching for and killing the Ma Yi Navy hidden in the pirate ship.
On the deck, in the cabin, and on the mast, there were fierce fighting soldiers, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing could be heard for miles, and the screams from time to time aroused the fierce and desperate hearts of the soldiers on both sides.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, which lacked powerful long-range attack weapons, the main means of attack of naval combat was hand-to-hand combat, and the trebuchet commonly equipped on the battleship did not have the destructive power of the artillery of later generations, in the Northern Song Dynasty when the sealed compartment was widely used, the trebuchet could not bring a deadly threat to the warship, and the main role of the trebuchet was still the same as the war in the 6 places, deterring and attacking the weak places of the battleship and the enemy soldiers with obvious targets, it had the same effect as the bed crossbow and the strong bow crossbow, but it was only to attack the weapons of the resistance soldiers on the enemy warship, And not to deal a fatal blow to the battleship itself.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, where powerful long-range attack weapons were lacking. Boarding operations became an effective means of attack against the enemy, while long-range weapons only played the role of auxiliary attacks, so the warships of the Northern Song Dynasty were all large ships with high loads in order to carry more soldiers.
The same was true in this battle, the fighting ships of the Great Song Navy crashed headlong into the side of the Mayi Navy battleship in the rain of arrows from the Mayi Navy. After completely paralyzing the mobility of the battleship of the Mayi Navy, several other Great Song warships immediately surrounded them, and trebuchets, bed crossbows and crossbowmen suppressed the attacks on the enemy ships, covering the soldiers armed with swords, guns, and halberds on the Great Song warships to board the enemy ships and begin to carry out the final deadly attack on the enemy ships.
On the camouflaged pirate ship of the Mayi Navy, there were less than 100 soldiers, but there were as many as 1,000 soldiers on the five warships of the Great Song Dynasty. Except for a few recalcitrant ones who were killed, most of them surrendered on their knees.
After the battle, dozens of Mayi navy were driven out of the cabin like sheep, trembling and afraid kneeling on the bow deck around them. Hundreds of Song generals surrounded them layer by layer, looking at these Mayi navy with two eyes.
"Lao Jiang! How's the catch? The middle-aged commander of the Great Song fleet, after seeing the end of the battle, walked over to the Mayi battleship, looked at a sturdy middle-aged man among the Great Song Dynasty soldiers and asked with a smile.
"Not bad! There were actually more than 80 Ma Yi naval non-commissioned officers on this ship. One of them is still a partial general, although the ship was not lightly hit, but it can still be repaired. "Strong. Lao Jiang, a middle-aged general with a strong face, carefully wiped the blood stains on the axe in his hand with a sweat towel, and then looked up and said to the inquiring commander.
"According to Lord Zhao, the commander of the navy, every Ma Yi soldier, whether he lives or dies, is worth one tael of silver, and the general is estimated to have five taels of silver, plus this damaged battleship, we can get two hundred taels of rewards when we go back, brothers! Return ship immediately. If you hand over these prisoners of war, classes, and warships, you can exchange them for big fish and meat, and if you save them, you will be able to marry a daughter-in-law soon. The fleet commander looked at the nearby Admirals of the Great Song Dynasty, and after saying to them loudly, he didn't look at the Ma Yi Navy who were kneeling and begging for mercy, and left directly.
In the vast sea area, five Great Song warships formed a flotilla, pulling a broken Mayi warship, and slowly sailed towards Lumen Island in the north of Mayi.
……
Lumen Island is an uninhabited desert island on the route from Liuqiu to Mayi, the original barren island because it is located in the middle of Liuqiu and Mayi, and there is a natural small harbor in the south of the island, it has since become a halfway repair place for Liuqiu to Mayi, not only has the name of Lumen Island, but also built a small port with taverns and hotels because of the large number of merchant ships.
In the third year of Jingyou, at the beginning of October 1o36 AD, Lumen Island was occupied by the sudden Great Song Fleet, and the forward force of the Great Song Navy led by Mahati finally arrived at Lumen Island, occupied this island that originally belonged to Mayi, and officially declared war on Mayi.
On the second day after Mahati occupied Lumen Island, the Admiral of Mayi sent an envoy from Mayi, accusing the Great Song Navy of encroaching on the territory of Mayi for no reason, and demanding that the Great Song Navy return to the Guangzhou Naval Port.
However, Mahati who came prepared would pay attention to the envoy sent by Liza, and he used the tragic death of the merchant in the Great Song Dynasty as an excuse to inform the Mayi navy to exterminate the cruel pirates near Mayi.
After Mahati occupied Lumen Island, he immediately sent a fleet to exterminate all the Mayi naval forces within a hundred miles around Lumen Island, and in just a few days, he did not expect that the pirates dressed as the Mayi Navy of the Great Song Dynasty were fiercely besieged by the Great Song Navy, and suffered heavy losses for a while, and they no longer dared to go to sea to loot ships.
On the fourth day of Mahathi's occupation of Lümen Island, just when the Mayi Navy couldn't help but be angry in his heart and was preparing to compete with the Great Song Navy, Mahathi's reinforcements, Zhu Sheng, the commander of the right army of the Great Song Navy, led a huge naval fleet to Lümen, consisting of more than 20 large warships, more than 60 medium-sized warships, and some small warships.
The strong strength of the Great Song Navy made Admiral Li Sa hesitate for a few days, and in these few days, the Great Song Navy completely cleared all the strongholds in the north of Mayi, and eliminated all the island forces that took refuge in Mayi, making the Mayi Navy blind in the northern waters of Mayi. I didn't get any news.
In the middle of October of the third year of Jingyou, Admiral Lisa of Mayi, who was old and no longer brave, finally could not withstand the double pressure of the army and the king, and decided to break the ship, leading Mayi's 30,000 navy and more than 300 warships to go to Lumen Island.
……
The Mayi Kingdom is the most powerful power in the northern part of the South China Sea. The kingdom consists of thousands of islands large and small, most of which are deserted and uninhabited.
On an uninhabited island in the north of Mayi, an artificially dug trench appears on top of the island's hill, which is out of place with the surrounding scenery.
In the moat, two soldiers dressed in the leather armor of the Great Song Dynasty Navy were quietly nesting in the deep pit, and one of them was actually holding a monocular binocular, vigilantly watching the situation around the island.
"It's coming! The Ma Yi Navy was dispatched, damn it, there were hundreds of warships. It seems that the whole army is pouring out, it seems that Lord Zhao is right, a little stimulation of the Ma Yi Navy will not be able to stand it and fight hard, you hurry up and play the flag! The sergeant with the monocular telescope saw the mighty Ma Yi Navy and cursed to another sergeant beside him.
Another sergeant of the Great Song Navy on the desert island immediately began to beat the simple flag that Zhao Lei and Su Xun had thought of painstakingly with the flag at hand. Spread to another desert island.
The military information of the whole army of the Ma Yi Navy poured out, and the sergeants of the Great Song Dynasty Navy who were ambushed on various desert islands reached Lumen in the shortest possible time, and at this time, Lumen, Zhao Lei led half of the logistics fleet to Lumen Island.
……
Outside Lumen Island, the huge fleet of the Great Song Navy was already ready for action. Mahathi's former troops sailed out of the harbor, and the other warships were slowly lined up under the command of their respective commanders. Wait for the moment when you rush out of the harbor.
Zhao Lei rode on the flagship of the Triple Building Ship of the Ground Navy, and Zhao Lei, Su Xun, Xiao Ruoruo and Yang Jinhua each stood on top of the city with a monocular telescope.
"This monocular telescope is really a good thing, I didn't expect you to hide a hand, with this thing, we have a calculating intention, and the Mayi Navy will definitely be defeated!" Su Xun fiddled with the monocular telescope sent by the military weapon in his hand, and said to Zhao Lei with a smile.
"Even if there are no such things, Ma Yi will definitely be defeated this time, and the Shenwu artillery on these ships is very powerful." With a bang, a big ship can be punched into a big hole, and a few cannons can sink a ship, which is much more powerful than a trebuchet, and with the thirty Shenwu cannons on our ship, it is easy to defeat Ma Yi. Yang Jinhua said proudly to Su Xun in a coquettish voice, as if these things were made by her.
Now I have more and more admiration for Zhao Lei, the Shenwu artillery and the monocular telescope have shocked and liked Yang Jinhua, and Zhao Lei, who designed these things, is even more respectful of a god.
"It's really strange that Ma Yi's navy actually poured out, could it be that Ma Yi, the admiral of the South China Sea, doesn't know that the navy of the Great Song Dynasty is stronger than them now! It seems that the old man is really old, and he is no longer the martial arts and wisdom of the past. After Zhao Lei learned the news of the dispatch of the entire Ma Yi Navy, he had already marked the death of the Ma Yi Navy in his heart.
"It is estimated that the Admiral Ma Yi of Lisa is also a helpless move, you must know that Ma Yi is not my Great Song Dynasty, there is no depth above the 6 earth, if he can't defeat my Great Song Navy, he can only watch us ascend 6 Manila and destroy the Ma Yi Kingdom, although he doesn't want to resist my Great Song fleet head-on, but King Ma Yi forced him to confront us head-on, people in the army, and they can't help themselves!" Xiao Ruoruo said to Zhao Lei in a deep voice.
Xiao Ruoruo's ability to analyze intelligence has become stronger and stronger recently, and with his delicate thoughts, he actually deduced the helplessness of the Ma Yi Navy from the top ten.
There are fewer and fewer Great Song fleets in Lumen Port, and the flagship that Zhao Lei is riding on also sails out of the port with the flow of ships, and on the wide sea south of Lumen Island, a huge fleet of nearly 200 warships sails to the vast sea to the south.
On the opposite side of the Great Song Fleet, a fleet of 300 warships of various types of the Mayi Navy also headed towards Lumen Island, where the Great Song Navy was stationed in the north, and the two huge navies were about to clash in the vast sea.
At the same time, the right army and half of the rear fleet led by Pang Song and Shi Qiang, plus some sea ships in the port of Guangzhou, transported 50,000 horses and horses of the new army and the right Qianniu army, bypassed Lumen Island, and sailed towards the sea east of Mayi.
With a positive attack, with a strange auxiliary! Whether Zhao Lei's strategy of dividing the troops into two ways can capture Ma Yiguo depends on the naval battle and the battle of sneak attack in the near future.
