Fight cattle across the river 7
Section XXVII
“…… Night soldiers, the sound of horns, loud in the sky, draw swords and ...... to the enemy"
Seeing that the enemy ship was getting closer and closer, Zhu Xiaolong had no fear, and couldn't help but be agitated in his heart. As a child, he dreamed of being a general. However, Zhu Huai has very high requirements for him, and wants him to be both civil and military. His father, Zhu Yulong, is even more important in literature and light on martial arts, and thinks that no matter how good kung fu is, there will be at most a hundred enemies. And the book has its own universe, only by reading a good book, is it truly all-encompassing, and there are materials that have passed through the heavens and latitudes.
Grandfather, father, I will definitely be able to get ahead, use the spear and sword in my hand to kill a piece of the sky, so that the prestige of the Zhu family will come to the world again, you see.
The ships of the middle route are uneven, the tallest, is Zhuge Fei's flagship Feiyun, this huge warship, participated in the southern expedition five years ago, a few years have passed, the paint color has faded early, but the majesty is undiminished, at this time is rampage in the middle of the road, and several northerner ships are entangled together, but they are at ease. Following the Feiyun attack, there are a large number of building ships, this thing is too high, the most afraid of the wind, not conducive to long-distance sailing, but it is the overlord on the river. Although the ships of the northerners are not small, they are dwarfed by these giants when they meet them. With Zhuge Fei's support, Yu Zhaobin's morale was greatly boosted, and this kind of small boat that could only accommodate fifty people fell into disadvantage under the pressure of Wang Zhiqing, but with the control of the naval building boat, it was suddenly like a fish in water, and attacked in all directions, specifically looking for lone ships to jump to fight.
Seeing that the flagship was besieged, the other warships of the northerners were also anxious, desperately approaching Wang Zhiqing's Fenwei. Within a radius of one mile from the Fenwei, the battle was the most intense, with more than 100 large and small ships chasing after me, shouting and killing. Bows and arrows, falling rocks, stone-throwing carts, thunderbolts, white-knuckle battles and other means of attack can be seen here. Some of the northern ships were even in a hurry, and directly flattened the gunwales and fired flat. The power of the gunwales is huge, and there is no reason to fire the guns at such a close range, and there are a few building ships that can't dodge at the moment, and they are bombarded, and slowly sink to the river, but the northerner ships are also affected, and two northerner warships are swept by the aftermath of the cannonballs, and the hull is broken, and it also loses the power to fight again.
Compared with the mess in the middle, the ships on the right flank are much more neat, whether it is Xiahou Tian's Po Lang or Yang Yi's Kaishan, they are both medium-sized ships that can accommodate two hundred people, the length of the hull is the same, and the height is also very different, so that when the gang fights, both sides have no advantage, and can only take the gangboard for white-knuckle combat.
This year's weather, like the times, was a bit unusual. Although it is not spring now, but the south wind is blowing, the sails of the Chinese and Western armies are full of wind, and the speed is even faster, Wang Zhiqing's battleship has just turned around, and Yang Yi's Kaishan has led a large group of warships to rush over murderously.
In the case of encounters, long-range strikes are generally used first, but the northerners are ready to rescue the middle lane, and they make a temporary U-turn, and the formation is in early chaos, and Xiahou Tian's broken Lang rushes the fastest, and it has been somewhat out of the large army. Yang Yi was overjoyed when he saw this, and he had the heart to capture the thief and the king, and he didn't delay halfway, so he rushed straight away. By the time Wang Zhiqing reacted, the Kaishan was only fifty steps away from the Polang.
Fifty paces away, under the full speed of the battleship, it can be said that it is coming in an instant, whether it is a catapult or a gunwald, it takes time to prepare, and after the best distance, Xiahou Tian was startled and shouted: "Quick, release the arrow." ”
The ship was already in a mess, Xiahou Tian ordered, only a few arrows were sparsely pulled, not to mention the insufficient quantity, and the accuracy was not enough, so naturally it did not work. He settled down and was about to say something more, when the soldier next to him said, "General, be careful." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly made a "whoosh" sound from the Kaishan, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that a neat column of iron shields had been set up on the Kaishan in advance, and these iron shields were separated from them, revealing several gaps, and three iron anchors flew out of the gaps, flying straight towards the Broken Lang.
In just such a short while, the two ships are only more than ten steps apart, the iron anchor itself weighs hundreds of pounds, and the iron chain is hung, and the person who throws the anchor is amazing, which is really amazing. Xiahou Tian's heart sank, in peacetime in the army, it is a little difficult to find such a strong man, and it is even more difficult to find three at the same time. There are many capable fighters in the Chinese and Western armies, it seems that the rumors are true, the iron anchor is extremely fierce, no one can stop it, and a soldier screamed miserably, was smashed by the iron anchor, and jumped on the deck with his feet. Only a "bang" was heard, and the iron anchor slammed heavily on the deck, hooking the side of the ship at once, and the iron chain was stretched straight. Xia Houtian exclaimed, "Quickly get this chain open!" ”
The one on the other side is coming, and it's in this way! Xiahou Tian's heart was cold, he drew his saber, and rushed towards the nearest iron anchor with an arrow step. The iron anchor is so heavy that it is afraid that it can be embedded in the hull of the ship with a single blow, and it is not easy to untie it, but now I have to try it anyway.
rushed to an iron anchor, and was about to bow his head to solve it, when he suddenly heard his own soldiers shouting: "General be careful." His heart sank, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw an arrow coming at high speed. The river wind was very fast, but this arrow was extremely accurate, and it came straight to his head.
It was Yang Yi's arrow, Yang Yi Xiang had the name of divine shooting, seeing that the enemy would not be afraid of death rushing up, his heart came just right, if he could shoot the enemy general in one fell swoop, the enemy would be defeated without attacking.
Good archery! Xiahou Tian secretly praised in his heart, lowered his head, the arrow flew over his head, penetrated deep into the door panel of the cabin, he stretched out his hand, and pulled the chain violently. I only heard a "bang", and the anchor teeth were embedded in the hull, but they didn't move and couldn't pull them out. This iron anchor is embedded very deeply, and there is a barb on it, and if you want to unlock it, it is not a temporary function.
"Watch out, the enemy is coming."
Just as he was about to pull it out with all his strength, there were already soldiers next to him who screamed, and when he looked up, three Chinese and Western soldiers flew up and jumped on the chain.
After the reform of the military system, the soldiers of the former Guards Battalion were all promoted, and at least they were also captains. These three people are the leaders of the Chinese and Western soldiers, one of them is even a captain, the three of them are all warriors, and their skills are even better, the thickness of the iron chain fingers, although they are straight, they are still dangling, but the three of them step on it, but they are like walking on the ground. Seeing that these Chinese and Western soldiers were not weak, Xiahou Tian's heart sank, and he said secretly: "Oops." "He is the chief general of the first army, and he thought that it would not be a problem for one to match a dozen or so, but now it seems that if he is afraid that he will rush to the boat with the first three people, it will be difficult for him to stop him.
"Don't let them get on board."
Xiahou Tian snorted, the people had jumped on the side of the ship, since the iron chain could not be untied for a while, they could only fight hand-to-hand, otherwise when they rushed over, with the skills of these Chinese and Western soldiers, the whole ship was a vegetable.
Kaishan and the Broken Lang are side by side, and it is not possible to make a U-turn at once, as long as they resist the opponent's attack on the iron chain and prevent them from getting on the ship, the wingmen behind will be able to arrive immediately. At that time, the way can be opened with a gunwalstick, and scare can also scare the other party away. As soon as the person jumped up, Yang Yi opened his bow and set up an arrow, and another arrow came, this arrow was very fast, and the head was also sufficient, but Xiahou Tian was engrossed, and it was impossible to take the arrow lightly, and the knife fell in his hand, and the arrow was cut down with a "dang" sound.
Yang Yi was in the army, and Xiang Youyou said that Yang Zhi was pierced in a hundred steps, but today he had shot two arrows in a row and missed, Xiahou Tian was so agile that even if he was hostile, he couldn't help but shout.
Although he blocked another arrow, Xiahou Tian didn't have time to deal with Yang Yi, glanced at the iron shield standing on the opposite side, and said secretly in his heart: "The enemy's defense is so tight, if it is a bow and arrow attack, it will definitely suffer a loss, but standing on it is not a good way, you can block one, block two, but they come with a thousand arrows, they take care of one and lose the other, sooner or later they will be hit, only the attack as the defender is the way out." ”
Thinking in his heart, there was already a kick under his feet, and the person had followed the iron chain and pounced on the thin Chinese and Western soldiers on the right. The Nakamishi soldier didn't expect him to be killed suddenly. couldn't help but be stunned, but out of inertia, a knife slashed at his chest.
It was inconvenient to dodge on the iron chain, Xia Houtian's body was slightly sideways, and the long knife almost grazed his chest and slashed into the air, and the others were already a little unsettled, and their bodies fell to one side. In the midst of the crisis, he pulled the right hand of the man and caught the man, and the Chinese and Western soldiers crooked their bodies and fell straight towards the river.
This time it was extremely beautiful, and the northerner soldiers behind him couldn't help but cheer in unison when they saw this. Xiahou Tian is secretly lucky, this person is actually not weak, if it is usual, to restrain this person, it will definitely take a lot of effort, to be able to force him down the river so smoothly, just to take a surprise.
Just as he was a little glad, one of the people next to him had already said sharply: "You give me death." On the side of his body, the long knife slashed at his shoulder, this person was the captain, seeing his colleague fall into the river, he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, he was angry in his heart, and he shook his hand to slash away.
This person is in the late stage of the fourth stage, his skills are higher than the person just now, this knife is powerful and heavy, and the momentum is even faster, Xiahou Tian's right foot is a little chain, and his body turns, he has already let the person have a long knife, and he is about to repeat the old trick, first catch this person's right arm. There was another roar from the side, but it was another person attacking from the side.
The three chains were less than two meters apart, and the other person saw that Xiahou Tian was not weak, and knew that if he fought to the death, most of his companions would be difficult to please, so he hurriedly jumped over to help.
As soon as he saw the man's sword momentum, Xiahou Tian's heart sank. Both of them are not weak, with one enemy and two, it will be difficult to send it away in a short time, one is not good, it is not impossible to plant it in the hands of the two, once this is the case, the broken Lang group of dragons has no leader, it will be a big chaos, then it will be a big loss. If you can't fight quickly, you can't fight a battle. The thought in his heart turned, he shouted loudly, took a step back, and had already dodged the man's knife momentum, and the long knife in his hand was rounded, and he stopped the two of them.
There was nowhere to hide on the chain, there was no other way but to retreat, the faces of the two changed greatly, and they could only retreat backwards, and this retreat returned to the original point, which had reached the side of the Kaishan ship.
Seeing that the Lord General was so brave, as soon as he made a move, the three people who attacked first were all forced to retreat, and one of them even fell into the river, and everyone on the Broken Lang cheered endlessly, and their morale was greatly boosted. Xiahou Tian breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to turn back and retreat, when he heard someone shouting: "The enemy general is rampant, let me wish Xiaolong to meet you." ”
