Chapter 1135: Zheng Chenggong and the Iron Man Army!
"Suppress the enemy!"
Zheng Chenggong ordered the bowl mouth guns and bed crossbows of the Dafu ship to fire a salvo on both sides of the strait, and began to suppress the crossbowmen of the Great Yue State on both sides of the strait!
Zheng Chenggong's fleet also engaged the soldiers and horses of the Great Yue Kingdom!
"Burn the chains!"
Wu Quan, the sailor of the Great Yue Kingdom, set many traps in the Baiteng River, and the organs were exhausted, however, Zheng Chenggong was not an easy military general to deal with.
The iron cable crossed the river and blocked Zheng Chenggong's fleet from going to support Su Zhang, so Zheng Chenggong used the fire ship that had been prepared for a long time to burn the iron cable!
"All things are mutually reinforcing."
Zheng Chenggong calmly commanded the fleet to counterattack, and was not in a hurry, but came up with countermeasures as soon as possible.
The real general, Mount Tai collapsed in front, and his face did not change.
The fireship was blocked by a chain and burned one of the cables.
It was only a matter of time before the fireship burned all the iron cables.
Su Zhang and Wu Quan confronted each other on the sea, and the two sides competed against each other!
"Kill!"
Su Zhang was hit by two arrows in his body, jumped onto a Dayue warship with his own soldiers, and launched a tragic broadside battle with the soldiers and horses of Dayue!
The Daifuku ship, trapped in a stake trap, was used as an arrow tower to shoot arrows at the warships of the Da Viet Kingdom.
Zheng Chenggong's fleet was blocked by Wu Quan's lieutenant general, so they could not come to support in time, and they had to hold out until Zheng Chenggong burned the iron rope in order to solve the current crisis.
"Destroy them as soon as possible!"
Wu Quan saw that Su Zhang's fleet was resisting fiercely, and the fleet of the Great Yue Kingdom could not take it down for a while, so he couldn't help but be anxious, and personally led his troops to attack the besieged Su Zhang's fleet!
"General, they are trapped in the stake formation, it is better to use fire to attack!"
"You go and do it quickly!"
"Yes!"
Wu Quan was reminded by his subordinates, so he had another plan to use fireboats to attack the Fu boats, building ships, and fighting ships that were trapped in the wooden stakes from upstream!
The large warship was trapped in the stake array, and because it was impossible to discern the location of the stake underwater, it was impossible to avoid this fire attack.
"Give up all the lucky ships and building ships!"
Although the loss of large warships made Su Zhang a little heartbroken, at the speed at which the Great Xia Dynasty produced Fu ships and Lou ships, the loss of a number of large warships was still within an acceptable range.
The sailors of a hundred battles are more precious than large warships.
Hundreds of fireships went down the river and crashed into the immobile Su Zhang fleet, the flames soared into the sky, and the huge fortune ship fell into the sea of fire!
Three- and four-deck ships, which can carry hundreds to thousands of armor soldiers and sailors, were also reduced to ashes in the fire!
Any wooden ship, whether it is a Daifuku ship or a building ship, will almost die in the face of a fire ship.
"If the Great Xia Dynasty wants to occupy the Great Yue Kingdom, how can it be so easy!"
Wu Quan and Chen Xingdao, one is responsible for commanding the Dayue National Naval Division, and the other is responsible for commanding the Dayue National Buxiang, actively fighting the main battle, and they are also one of the few military generals who can fight in the Dayue Kingdom.
Wu Quan and Chen Xingdao were both good at guerrillas and traps.
In a frontal battle, it is impossible to be the opponent of the Central Plains Dynasty, and even Jiaozhou Mu can't beat it, but taking advantage of the terrain and setting up ambushes and traps, it is impossible to guard against.
After Su Zhang's 60,000 people lost large warships as cover, the few large warships of the Dayue Kingdom appeared, besieged the remaining small ships of Su Zhang, and together with the small ships of the Dayue Kingdom, they attempted to completely annihilate the Su Zhang fleet.
"Da Yue people are really insidious!"
Su Zhang was calculated by Wu Quan with the timing of the ebb tide, so he could only fight desperately and support him to the death.
Another arrow hit Su Zhang's armor, and Su Zhang's eyes were red, and he was smoked by the thick smoke from the fire.
The two sides fought fiercely for several hours, with tens of thousands of casualties.
Finally, Zheng Chenggong's Dafu ship appeared from downstream, and the bowl mouth fired a salvo at Wu Quan's warship, and stone bullets and crossbow arrows destroyed the wooden walls of the Dayue warship!
Zheng Chenggong's fleet was blocked by the iron cable for a period of time, but fortunately, Zheng Chenggong reacted and prepared in time, burned the iron cable as soon as possible, and came to the aid of Su Zhang.
If you replace it with an unguarded, or indecisive general, you may still be trapped by the iron rope at this time.
The crossbows of the Dafu ships were fired, and many warships of the Dayue Kingdom were destroyed!
"Defeat them!"
Zheng Chenggong waved his arms, and 30,000 sailors came out together to attack the warships of the Great Yue Kingdom!
Zheng Chenggong's big ships approached the small boats of the Great Yue Kingdom, and the bowl mouth guns and bed crossbows shot at these small boats and destroyed them!
At Zheng Chenggong's suggestion, the Fu boat on which the Iron Man Army of the special arms was riding had a broadside battle with the big ship of the Great Yue Kingdom.
The Iron Man Army, wearing an iron mask and a hideous face, is armed with a horse slashing knife and washes the deck with blood!
"What kind of monster is this......!"
The sailors of the Great Yue Kingdom saw the terrifying Iron Man Army for the first time and fell into a panic.
Zheng Chenggong's Iron Man Army is not a firearms arm, but a heavy infantry used to deal with the Eight Banners Cavalry!
When the poorly equipped sailors encounter the Iron Man Army, which is equipped to the teeth, it is just a one-sided slaughter!
Once the Iron Man Army was allowed to board the deck, the Great Viet Nam warship was basically lost.
"Retreat! Hurry back! ”
Wu Quan didn't expect Zheng Chenggong to march so fast, and couldn't help but be shocked, so he hurriedly retreated and fled here with a small boat.
After two joint battles, the Da Viet Naval Division lost 1,000 warships and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
Zheng Chenggong relieved the siege of Su Zhang, and Su Zhang's fleet fought twice, with 40,000 casualties before and after, dozens of Fu ships and building ships, and 1,000 small and medium-sized warships.
Zheng Chenggong pressed his sword to watch the sky-high fire, the Fu ship and the building ship that were stabbed by the wooden stake sank, and the warship that was attacked by the fire was still billowing black smoke.
The guerrillas, ambushes, and traps of the Great Yue Kingdom became the biggest obstacle to the conquest of the Great Yue Kingdom by the Great Xia Dynasty.
Su Zhang, whose face was covered with soot, came to Zheng Chenggong's warship and pleaded guilty to Zheng Chenggong.
"The sailors of the Great Yue Kingdom are extremely sinister and well-versed in the hydrology of this place, and their traps are impossible to guard. We can make the captured sailor generals and sailors open the way and take advantage of the high tide to attack in a big way. ”
Zheng Chenggong did not embarrass the defeated Su Zhang.
The Baiteng River is a special place here, and the fleets of countless Central Plains dynasties in history have suffered losses here.
Zheng Chenggong changed his tactics, using the captured soldiers of the Dayue State Navy Division as guides, taking advantage of the high tide to pass through the stake array laid by Wu Quan, and alerting the fleet in the rear.
Wu Quan was still stubbornly attacking Zheng Chenggong's fleet.
However, Wu Quan, who had also suffered considerable losses in the two joint battles, was already difficult to organize a trap of this scale, and posed little threat to Zheng Chenggong's fleet.
"It's a pity that I don't have many ships and soldiers in my hands......"
Wu Quan was in the Baiteng River area, which was covered with a dense water network, and lost the battle of annihilation, Wu Quan, like Chen Xingdao, turned into guerrilla warfare and attacked Zheng Chenggong's transport ship.
The Baiteng River is at the mouth of the sea, and there are countless tributaries and jungles, so Zheng Chenggong and Su Zhang really have no way to take Wu Quan.
Zheng Chenggong and Su Zhang's first task was to attack Shenglong Mansion and join forces with Sun Jian and Wang Defa, and there was no time to encircle Wu Quan in the tortuous rivers.
After the main channel of the Baiteng River was opened, Zheng Chenggong and Su Zhang successfully approached Thang Long Mansion.
Now the situation is clear.
Although the guerrilla tactics and traps and diseases of the Great Yue Kingdom caused considerable losses to the Jiangdong Army, the Jiaozhou Army, and the Jingzhou Army, the army of the Great Xia Dynasty that went south still formed a flanking attack on Thang Long Province according to the original plan.
Sun Ce and Liu Gaozhi's more than 8,000 soldiers and horses, almost without any resistance, crossed the Beijiang River and arrived in the north of the Red River.
On the other side of the Red River, there is the royal city of the Great Viet Kingdom - Thang Long Mansion.
Chen Jian, the Marquis of Zhangxian of the Great Yue Kingdom, led 20,000 troops to resist Sun Ce and Liu Gaozhi north of the Red River, and was defeated by Sun Ce and Liu Gaozhi!
"Surrender!"
Chen Jian, Marquis of Zhangxian, did not have the tenacity of Chen Xingdao, Chen Qingyu and other military generals of the Great Yue Kingdom, and after being captured alive by Liu Jiaozhi, Chen Jian kowtowed and asked to surrender, trembling.
"What to do?"
"Your Majesty has a word, try to recruit the royal family of the Great Viet Kingdom to raze and raze, otherwise we will fall into an endless guerrilla war. After seizing it and capturing Thang Long Mansion, it was sent to the summer capital to await His Majesty's disposal. If His Majesty wants to kill him, it will only be a matter of swords and axes at that time. ”
Sun Ce is easy to rush, but it doesn't mean that Sun Ce is a reckless man, on the contrary, Sun Ce is more like a hero who knows how to measure.
Zhangxian Marquis Chen Jian hurriedly kowtowed again: "Thank you for the general's grace not to kill!" When the Heavenly Master came, the Holy Lord had already fled from the Thang Long Mansion, and the Thang Long Mansion was only a few tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, how could it resist the Celestial Master? ”
Sun Ce and Liu Gaozhi glanced at each other, this idiot took the initiative to bring 20,000 soldiers and horses to fight the Jiangdong soldiers and the Beifu army, and was captured alive by them, and seemed to know the truth of Shenglong Mansion?
It seems that leaving him with a dog's life is completely worth the money.
Chen Jian, Marquis of Zhangxian, seems to be very afraid of the heavenly masters of the Great Xia Dynasty, and the Battle of Beijiang has already played the prestige of the Great Xia Dynasty, and many princes of the Great Yue Kingdom have wavered.
Sun Ce learned from him that Chen Shengzong of Thang Long Mansion had been frightened, and fled from Thang Long Mansion overnight and fled south to Thanh Hoa City for refuge.
The military generals of the Great Yue Kingdom also fled south with Chen Shengzong.
At the same time, Chen Shengzong promulgated the Qinwang Decree for the second time.
As long as the various player lords and local tycoons who have made meritorious contributions to the Xia army, they can be named generals and even princes!
The Praetorian Guards of the Great Yue Kingdom also moved with Chen Shengzong, and the Thang Long Mansion only had tens of thousands of Chen Xingdao's troops, and the troops were empty.
Obviously, even the emperor of the Great Yue Kingdom, Chen Shengzong, had to agree to the guerrilla tactics proposed by Chen Xingdao and other generals and abandon Thang Long Province.
As long as Chen Shengzong is still there, then the generals and wealthy families of the Great Yue Kingdom can still resist the rule of the Great Xia Dynasty in the name of King Qin.
After Sun Ce and Liu Gaozhi obtained this valuable information, they began to plan an attack on Thang Long Mansion.
No matter where Chen Shengzong fled to, taking Thang Long Mansion could greatly damage the morale of the Great Yue Kingdom, causing some of the princes, players, and heroes of the undecided main faction to defect.
Not all of the top brass of the Great Viet Kingdom will resist firmly.
"Generals, the envoys of the Emperor of the Great Yue Kingdom ask to see you!"
Just as Sun Ce and Liu Gaozhi were planning to forcibly cross the Red River and attack Shenglong Mansion, Chen Shengzong of the Great Yue Kingdom sent envoys to ask for a meeting.
"What does the Emperor of the Great Yue Kingdom want to do?"
"Bring him here!"
Sun Ce and Liu Gaozhi finally wanted to see what medicine was sold in Chen Shengzong's gourd.
At the same time, they prepared people to cross the Red River, and the storming of Thang Long was imminent.
