Chapter 190 - The Battle Begins
There is only one fighting ship in Jiangnan Township now, which was obtained from the last captured water thief.
After the processing and transformation of Master Chang Dafeng, it was completely completed. The speed of the fighting ship is extremely fast, and it has an advantage on the river. It can seat 900 people.
"My lord, since the last time I knew about that island. We're now starting to explore the surrounding waters, and we've found that there aren't a lot of small islands around. Even, the big island can accommodate tens of thousands of water thieves. Xi Zhicai stood on the shore of the fighting ship, facing the wind and continued: "The island we went to this time was decided by me and Hansheng after deliberation. This small island has a maximum of 2,000 water thieves, and the equipment is not very good. It can be said that they are the weakest water thieves in this area, and with our strength, it will not be a problem to take them down. ”
Jiang Nan looked at the vast river and nodded. This is only a middle and lower class river at the junction, but it looks dozens of times more turbulent than the Yangtze River. As far as the eye can see, there are water waves. There is no end in sight.
"Zhicai, we won't get lost, will we?" There's no compass here, so it would be embarrassing to get lost here. Jiangnan will change from the first township in the world to the first water thief in the world.
Xi Zhicai smiled lightly at this time: "Don't worry, my lord, our fighting ship has experienced residents on the water." They have a unique way of recording on the water, and with them, we won't get lost. ”
"That's it." Jiang Nan replied, and between words, a small island appeared in the sight of Jiang Nan and the others.
The island is surrounded by unknown aquatic plants, and the island is surrounded by strong trees. The water thieves who live on the island have one characteristic. Even the plants on the outer edge of the island are perfectly preserved, and only the passage is cleared. If there is no sign of damage to the vegetation around an island, it is likely to be an uninhabited island.
Conversely, if there are traces of passages around it. It's clear that it's either the inhabitants or the water thieves. After all, many natives have now begun to migrate because of taxes. Among them, the deep mountains and old forests and the small islands on the river are the most popular places. Because there are no taxes here, the people can survive.
Of course, this has a huge negative effect. These people, indirectly or directly, contributed to the growth of the number of water thieves and mountain bandits. Visually, these two professions are going to be a big hit.
Jiangnan has seen on the forum that many lord players' territories have been destroyed, and it is the flooded bandits or horse bandits who have destroyed the territory. No way, Native NPCs aren't like the current Lord players. Lords and players are supported by consortium guilds or big families, and some are built by the children of big families. Therefore, compared to the hungry natives, their survival is not bad. At the very least, they still have food to eat.
Compared with other lord players, not only are they not afraid of bandits, but they hope that the more bandits there are, the better. There is no way, the three subsidiary territories of Jiangnan have been built. And the upgrade blueprints have been purchased in the original Lu County, and at this time, the territory near Jiangnan is the time when it needs to replenish the residents.
And the bandits, undoubtedly the fastest way to replenish the number of residents.
"My lord, we have arrived." Xi Zhicai squinted ahead at this time and said slowly.
Jiang Nan also looked ahead, and the next moment, Jiang Nan and Xi Zhicai both smiled. The water thieves on the island actually got on the boat one after another, and put on a posture of meeting them at any time.
"Huh." Xi Zhicai smiled softly: "The water thief did this, but it is also in line with Hansheng's intention." This kind of battle can improve the strength of the territorial sailors faster. ”
Huang Zhong, who was on the top of the fighting ship, narrowed his eyes and looked at the water thieves in front of him. After pondering for a while, Huang Zhong said in a deep voice: "Zixu, lead the troops to meet the enemy." The soldiers on the fighting ship cannot be attacked without my orders! ”
I don't know if it's a coincidence, a total of thirty small boats were dispatched on the opposite side, and Huang Zhong happened to be thirty this time. Thirty to thirty, Huang Zhong is too satisfied with this situation.
In this battle, Huang Zhong didn't want to do it himself. At the very least, not now. Only when the battle situation is unfavorable will Huang Zhong choose to make a move.
Huang Zhong gave an order, and thirty warships roared out. Before the battle, Huang Zhong had already seen the clues on the battlefield. The first is speed, the speed of the water thief is much faster than the speed of Huang Zhong's side. Moreover, the same warship is significantly more flexible than here in the water thieves.
At this time, Huang Xu on the battlefield also discovered that something was wrong: "The whole army listens to the order, the archer warship slows down to cover, and the others charge me!" ”
Fighting on the water is not as good as on land, and although he has gone through some hard training, Huang Xu is still a little uncomfortable. Compared to this, he still likes battles like fighting ships. Because of the large size of the ship, the difference between fighting on deck and on land is not very great.
Unlike now, fighting in small boats and going with the flow. A soldier who is not strong is in danger of losing his center of gravity at any time. This is an extremely lethal factor in battle.
"Kill!" Huang Xu roared and jumped onto the water thief's warship. Before they could make a move, they slashed and killed a water thief.
Although Huang Xu couldn't give full play to his strength 100%, it was still easy to deal with these little water thieves.
Whoosh!!
Whoosh!!
At this time, the archers behind Huang Xu also began to attack. Suddenly, a rain of arrows fell. Bow and arrow is one of Huang Zhong's key training items, and a rain of arrows fell, and more than a dozen water thieves fell. Compared with land, the lethality has dropped by more than half. Seeing this, Huang Zhong on the fighting ship shook his head slightly.
After the rain of arrows attacked, the water thieves on the opposite side also began to counterattack. I saw some of the water thieves in front of me jump off the warship one by one, and then sink into the water. The water thieves in the vanguard had already begun to fight with the army led by Huang Xu, and they were all flexible and agile, and the battle did not start for long. The soldiers on Huang Xu's side fell into great passivity. Simply enough, the soldiers led by Huang Xu were all selected through layers of selection.
Although they fell into passivity, they were still in danger. The orderly cooperation between each other minimizes losses. Despite this, many soldiers were killed by the water thieves.
This is the battlefield, the battlefield of Chiguoguo. Jiangnan has almost never suffered defeat along the way because of Huang Zhong, Huang Xu and Xi Zhicai. The casualties were not large, and this time Jiangnan really saw the cruelty of the battlefield.
Huang Xu killed the most enemies in the battlefield, and the water thieves hurriedly dispersed the distance at this time. Avoided that after Huang Xu finished killing the water thieves on one ship, he just jumped into another ship and continued to kill.
The water thieves dispersed, and Huang Xu's movements were also greatly restricted.
At this time, many water thieves suddenly came out of the water from Huang Xu's rear. The direction in which they went was the ship of the archers who were attacking in the rear......
