Chapter 5: Destruction
At this time, the buoy on the water suddenly sank, it seemed that a fish had bitten the hook, Shi Jinshui saw this and hurriedly pulled it hard, but after pulling it up, the fish was not caught, and the bait on it was eaten. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After smiling bitterly, Shi Jinshui turned around and was about to put on a new bait, but when he turned around, he found that all the earthworms had been used up by him. But it didn't matter, you can use pieces of meat instead of earthworms, he remembered that his soldiers had caught a mouse yesterday, and now the meat of this mouse could come in handy.
"Obama, bring me the mouse."
"Hey! Got it, sir! As soon as Shi Jinshui's words fell, a big furry head immediately poked out of the cabin. This guy named Obama is an entourage accepted by Shi Jinshui during the battle, and he is a barbarian traitor, which is commonly known as the Belt and Road Party, Shi Jinshui's battle to exterminate the rebels in Spain can be so smooth, and the help of this Belt and Road Party is also inseparable. In order to reward the other party's merits, Shi Jinshui specially gave the other party such a resounding name.
After this barbarian traitor with long unkempt hair came to Shi Jinshui's side with the mouse, he said with a flattering smile: "My lord, give it, the mouse you want." ”
Shi Jinshui took the mouse, grabbed the tail with his hand, threw it heavily on the deck, and directly broke the mouse, and then took out the knife he carried, ready to disassemble the mouse.
"My lord, you've been fishing all morning, how many fish have you caught?" Ohachi said as he looked curiously at the bucket that was going to be used for fish.
"Huh! Don't look at it, I haven't caught a single one. ”
After listening to Shi Jinshui's answer, Na Ao Bama not only did not show disappointment on his face, but praised Shi Jinshui with a smile on his face: "Wow! My lord, you are really amazing, you are so patient, most people have not caught a single fish in the morning, they must have been impatient for a long time, but not only are you not a little impatient, but you are still so calm, no wonder you are always able to seize the best fighter on the battlefield and deal the most deadly blow to the enemy..."
Yes, this is another reason why Shi Jinshui has this entourage, that is, this product is very good at sycophancy, in this game space where there is no TV and no network, this guy is Shi Jinshui's only object of fun.
Just as Ao Ba Ma was patting his master's ass vigorously here, Rowan, who is now the chief centurion under Shi Jinshui, suddenly strode over, pushed away Ao Ba Ma who was blocking in front, and said to Shi Jinshui dissatisfied: "How can you still have the heart to fish here, Hannibal's **** has taken the wrong route for the third time, when will we return to Carthage City if we go on like this!" ”
After being rescued by this big man twice, Shi Jinshui decided that this guy was definitely his own lieutenant, and it would be against the will of God not to take him with him as the head of the bodyguard. It's strange to say that since taking this guy by his side, although Shi Jinshui has encountered several huge crises in the past few days, he has been able to turn the danger into a disaster and get out of danger in the end.
"Oops! Lao Luo, be tolerant of novices! After all, it's the first time for him to go to sea, and it's already good if he doesn't bring the boat to the rocks, can you ask anything more from him? For Luo Wen's complaints, Shi Jinshui was already calloused when he heard it. Since he heard that the Romans had already fought under the city of Carthage, the great man was in a hurry to go back to help in the war, and he did not want to delay for a moment.
The Hannibal in Rowan and Shi is not the legendary Carthaginian Hannibal, but the newly appointed midshipman of their fleet. It is said that the father of this cargo admired the famous Carthaginian general, so he also gave his son the same name, but it is clear that this Hannibal general did not inherit the slightest skill of his predecessors, and he could not even do such a small errand as transporting troops, and took the wrong route several times. Although Shi Jinshui thinks that there is also a reason for the deputy commander of the fleet named Habak, after all, it is said that the position of this commander originally belonged to him, but because Hannibal's Lao Tzu was more powerful, he let his son parachute into this fleet through the back door.
"Hey! Don't stop, Obachi! I like to hear you take your fart seriously, you don't pay attention to Lao Luo, go on. ”
The master had a request, and how could Obama dare to disobey it, so the barbarian entourage continued to say on the side: "My lord, you really have the demeanor of a general, and you don't want some guys, not only are you rude and unbearable, but you also have an impatient personality, and you can't make a big deal at first glance." As for the battle on the other side of Carthage, it seems to me that if you wait for you to go back and use a little trickery, you will definitely be able to repel the Romans in a matter of minutes. ”
"When it comes to stratagems, you are definitely the first person in the past, and where will other generals have your unbridled imagination, and you can come up with some completely unexpected schemes just by thinking about it. Just as this time the flooding tactics used by the Spanish rebels were used brilliantly, and your sentence after the battle, "We don't produce water, we are just the porters of nature" is even more incisive and philosophical! Be sure to include this sentence when writing your biography in the future. ”
"Haha! Obama, your kung fu is getting better and better! Listening to the sycophants of his subordinates, Shi Jinshui's mood became extremely happy, and at the same time, he also understood that there was always a shortage of courtiers who could pat the kings in history.
But suddenly a shout interrupted Shi Jinshui's enjoyment, "Look, it looks like a Roman warship!" ”
After hearing this shout, Shi Jinshui immediately stood up and looked vigilantly at the sea in front of him, and sure enough, he found that a Roman Raven warship was chasing a three-column warship flying the Carthaginian flag and approaching this side quickly.
From this Raven ship, Shi Jinshui immediately judged that this should be a battleship of the Scipio family, because in the game, only this family can build this kind of warship. It's also strange to say, perhaps in order to give players more choices, in the Luo War, the makers of the game actually divided the Roman faction into three, these three families are the Julius family known as the Red Luo by the player, the Brutus family known as the Green Luo and the Scipio family known as the Blue Luo, these three families can be said to have their own strengths, but they all have to obey the orders of the Senate and work hard to complete the tasks issued by the Senate. For this Senate, which often issued some strange tasks, Shi Jinshui hated it very much, and it was definitely the first to be destroyed after starting a civil war.
Speaking of this Lan Luo's Raven Ship, it is also a relatively advanced warship of this era. But Shi Jinshui looked down on it, because the combat ability of this kind of warship itself was not outstanding, and the reason why it was counted as a relatively advanced warship in this era was only because it allowed the Romans to turn a naval battle into a land battle that they were good at. At the bow of this type of battleship, there is a wooden springboard, and at the end of this springboard, a giant spike shaped like a crow's pointed beak is installed, which allows this kind of battleship to get close to the enemy battleship, lower the springboard, and use this huge spike to pierce into the enemy's hull, fixing the two battleships together, and then the Roman soldiers on the Raven can board the enemy ship through the gangplank and start the white-knuckle combat they are best at. This is where the name of the Raven comes from. After Shi Jinshui learned about this, he only gave a two-word evaluation of the method of naval warfare created by the Romans. In Shi Jinshui's cognition, naval warfare should be about the speed, defense and long-range firepower of the battleship, always thinking about turning naval warfare into land warfare, which is a very stupid approach, once the enemy invents a warship that is faster than you, this method of warfare will become completely useless.
The Raven ship on the opposite side that belonged to Lan Luo also discovered Shi Jinshui and their fleet at this time, after seeing clearly that the enemy was a large fleet composed of a five-column battleship and six three-column battleships, this Sky Raven ship immediately coaxed, and after turning the bow of the ship, the oars slid quickly, and disappeared from Shi Jinshui's sight after a while.
And Shi Jinshui did not chase after them, because the three-column battleship that was pursued by the Raven Ship did not look good, and the hull was damaged in many places, and even the mast that hung the sails was broken by half, and the speed was greatly reduced. If it hadn't been for Shi Jinshui and them on the way, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before they would have been caught up by the Blue Luo Crow Ship.
After making peace with the scarred triremittal, Shi Jinshui and the others got bad news from the crew above, that is, Carthage, the capital of Carthage, had been breached by the Romans a day ago, and now the Romans are massacring the city there! After hearing this shocking news, among all the people, Shi Jinshui can be said to be the most calm, after all, Carthage is not his homeland, but just a tool he uses to accumulate strength. So when everyone was still in shock, Shi Jinshui could still calmly ask those crew members about the specific process of the battle under Carthage.
For this great war that decided the life and death of their country, the Carthaginians did spare their blood and issued mobilization orders to elite field troops in various places, including Shi Jinshui, and finally gathered a total of more than 70,000 troops, including more than 70 war elephants. On the Roman side, the three major families also jointly attacked, and raised more than 50,000 troops. After the battle began, the Carthaginian commanders tried to break the Roman line with the old method, that is, a group charge of war elephants and heavy cavalry, but unfortunately the Romans were a very good learning race, and after suffering several losses, they had long been wary of Carthage's trick. As a result, this time the Carthaginians not only failed to rely on war elephants to break the Roman line, but the more than 70 war elephants that were finally put together were killed by the Romans with javelins and arrow rain more than 20, and the remaining war elephants went crazy because of the huge casualties of their companions, but turned around and rushed to the Carthaginian line, and the entire Carthaginian array was rushed to pieces, and the Romans took advantage of the opportunity to quickly advance and crushed the Carthaginian army in one fell swoop.
"Alas! Sure enough, Carthage still can't escape its fate after all! After understanding the whole process of the battle, Shi Jinshui could only let out such a sigh.
