Chapter 300: Victory in the first battle

In the water war of this era, there are not too many skills to speak of, the law is that the more ships bully the fewer ships, and the big ships bully the small boats, and whoever has more ships and whose ships are bigger will win.

Soon the two sides of the small battle together, these small boats are extremely fast, extremely test the skills of the soldiers on both sides, both sides must be prepared to collide, capsize the boat and fall into the water, and after falling into the water, there is a fight in the water.

If you don't fall into the water, it's a battle on the side, a brutal white-knuckle battle.

The soldiers who operated the boat lifted their poles and poked them fiercely, while some of the soldiers opened their bows and arrows and shot desperately at each other, and all of a sudden, the arrows were like locusts, as if it were raining.

When the speed of the ship is extremely fast, this kind of counter-fire can only shoot a few arrows, and the two sides can fight on the side, swords dance together, and all kinds of weapons slash at each other. On the ship, in a small space, there is no battle formation at all, it is completely hooligan fighting, whoever is ruthless wins, whoever fights is not sensitive, and who has a good chance of survival.

And at the moment when the small boats fought one after the other and fought fiercely, the contest between the big ships also began.

"Prepare the ballista!" Sun Dawei shouted loudly, afraid that the soldiers would not understand.

And the Jin army on the opposite side also began to fire stone bullets.

At this time, it was less than a hundred paces, and the distance between the big ships was extremely short, and it was the moment when the ballistas were fired, and the ballistas fired in unison, and stone projectiles and arrows flew in the air.

If the stone bullets fall on the ship, if they go straight through the deck or embedded in the hull, it is better, but I am afraid that after these stone bullets fall on the ship, they will roll in all directions, and once they are touched, they will end up with broken tendons.

The characteristic screech of ballistas, the thud of strong crossbow shots, and the shouts of both sides, came and went.

The ballista soldiers, braving the intensive blows of the other side, kept returning fire. You could be stoned to death, you could be killed by a crossbow arrow, but there was no choice, and some of the soldiers held shields to protect the ballista soldiers.

The battle quickly became fierce.

As the violence got closer and closer, the stone bullets gradually lost their effect, and the crossbow collapsed a lot.

And at this time, some rockets began to fire, specifically at the sails.

In this era, there were no steam engines. There is no internal combustion engine, the powerplant has only sails. The sails were burned, and the big ship was deprived of its legs, and it was difficult to move a bit.

Under the incineration of the rockets, some of the sails burned. The fire was raging and the smoke was billowing out. It's tragic to the extreme.

Soon between the big ships. The broadside battle also began.

Naval warfare is ancient, violent, and brutal, with no skill to speak of. In the distance are ballistas, bows, and rockets; At close quarters, they are engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

On land, the Jin army could, with the help of cavalry shocks, but alas, in naval battles. The Jin army has a slight advantage in cavalry and archery

In naval warfare, there is no way to retreat, there is no place to escape, only to kill all the enemies. Or be killed by the enemy, and there is no third way to choose. Both sides chose to fight desperately, desperately trying to kill the enemy.

In the naval battle, the Xiangyang Naval Division quickly occupied the initiative on the battlefield.

The officers and men of the Xiangyang Naval Division, mainly from the boat gangs and water bandits on both sides of the Han River, played in the Han River every day, and had extremely rich experience in water warfare; The Jin army is mostly landlubbers from the north, and they lack experience in water warfare, and they can't be noticed at first, but gradually the disadvantages become more and more obvious.

As long as there is a moment of fierce fighting, this water division will be completely eaten.

"Woo!" At this time, the horn of the Jin army sounded in the distance, and the Jin army's sailors in the distance were dispatched.

Plans always can't catch up with changes, and the Jin Army's sailors originally planned, originally planning to lure the Xiangyang Sailors into an ambush circle and take the opportunity to gather and annihilate them. It's just that the speed of the Song Army's sailors was too fast, and before they had time to evacuate, they were bitten.

And this Jin Army Sailor has suffered a catastrophe, and if he doesn't rescue him, he will definitely die.

As a last resort, Guo Yaoshi could only attack in advance to rescue the trapped Jin Army sailors.

"Withdraw!" Seeing that the fighter plane had been lost, Sun Dawei also had to evacuate.

Compared with the embarrassment and waste of the Song army's infantry, the water division was much better, fast when attacking, and very sharp when retreating. Just paid a very small price, got rid of the bite of the Jin army and evacuated smoothly.

Fighting a war is not only about winning or losing, but also about morale.

The first warrior spirit is more important!

This was the first water battle between Song and Jin.

The Song army won the first battle, and it was already content, and the credit was already great, and it would be dangerous if it didn't evacuate.

…………

"To chase or not, General Guo?"

"Chase, why not!" Pharmacist Guo's tone was very impulsive, but after he was very impulsive, he was a little discouraged, "The plan has failed, camp on the spot and put on a defensive posture!" “

On land, Jin is strong and Song is weak, but at sea, Song is strong and Jin is weak, so he has to take defense at this moment.

"General Guo is not afraid!"

"General Guo, our army has many ships, and we are not afraid of the Song army!"

"It's a pity, the first battle is unfavorable, so you have to defend, worthy of General Guo!"

At this time, a burst of mocking voices came, and there were Jurchen generals all around, and their status was higher than that of him, a descending general. In the concept of the Jurchens, there is only offense and then attack, but there is no word for defense. At this time, it was just a small setback, and it seemed a little too timid to think about defense.

Pharmacist Guo's face was flushed, both angry and aggrieved, and his heart was sad and indignant to the extreme.

In the eyes of the world, he is the supreme commander of this water war, but he knows that he is only a commander on the surface, and none of these unruly Jurchen generals under his command are willing to accept his command. Once there is a disagreement, he is definitely the material that is being put on the air.

"General Guo, let's attack!"

The generals below asked for their lives.

Guo Yaoshi was helpless, and took the chicken feather as an arrow, and the consequence was death, and no one shouted wronged, just that! I had to say: "Attack, destroy the Xiangyang Water Division!" “

"General Guo, Shengming!"

"This battle is bound to be a great victory!"

…………

"Meet the Commander!" Sun Dawei bowed and saluted.

"Not bad, not bad!" Yu Yunwen nodded with satisfaction, "You are the first to take the lead in this battle!" ”

"It's not good, the Jin Army Sailor is coming after you!" At this time, the official in charge of the lookout on the top of the ship said.

"Jin Jun Sailor, I really don't know whether to live or die, do you think this is still a land battle, and you think that the cavalry is still invincible?" Yu Yunwen said disdainfully, "The land war is not a water war, and this battle will inevitably wipe out the Jin Army and the Naval Division!" ”

"The last general is willing to be the vanguard and attack the Jin Army!"

"Zhao Laosan, you get out of the way, Lao Tzu will strike first in this battle!"

"No, I have to go, you water war, who can compare to me!"

Immediately, there was a fierce quarrel between the generals of the Xiangyang Navy Division, all over who would be the vanguard and who would strike first, and the quarrels continued.

"No need, let's stand back!" Yu Yunwen said with a smile.

"What retreat?" The generals were immediately surprised, "No, never, my Xiangyang Sailor is stronger than the Jin Army's Sailor, and I will be able to win it, why do you want to retreat?" ”

Yu Yunwen said: "Retreat is for a better attack." If you blindly fight hard, the casualties will be large; There is also Shuizhai being attacked by the Jin Army at the moment, and time can't be delayed for too long! ”

"Yes!"

Under an order, the Xiangyang Navy Division slowly retreated, while the Jin Army Navy Division screamed and chased away directly.

At this time, the level of both sides is revealed. The Jin Army's sailors have repeatedly chased after them, but they still can't catch up; Fortunately, the distance is gradually shortening, and as long as you work harder, you can catch up.

At this time, Yu Yunwen was leading the sailor to rush towards the ambush site, as long as he entered the ambush circle, he could fight a total annihilation battle

It's just that Guo Yaoshi has sorrow on his face, at this moment the fool knows that there is an ambush by the Song army ahead, but the soldiers of the Jin army are still addicted to the illusion of invincibility.

This is a naval battle, wake up, uncles!

In land warfare, relying on the sharpness of the cavalry and the powerful impact force, the cavalry of the Jin Army can be one as ten, one as a hundred, and win many battles; But this is a water battle, the water battle is the collision of boats, not the collision of war horses, no matter how awesome the riding and shooting, there is no use, but the Jin army is still addicted to the illusion of invincibility.

Even if they had just lost the first battle, they thought that the Song army had won by luck.

Otherwise, why do you turn around and run, and you don't dare to fight.

"Stop, poor Kou Mo chase, beware of the Song army's ambush!" Guo Yaoshi said.

"Hmph, there's an ambush, keep chasing me!" The generals of the Jin Army around said disdainfully.

Pharmacist Guo was completely speechless!

"Boom!" There was a violent pop, the hull of the ship shuddered violently, and some of the Jin soldiers on board fell to the boat. Guo Yaoshi's body slanted, and he also fell to the side, and under the violent collision, the helmet was lost somewhere. (To be continued......)
