Chapter 898: The trench reappears
On the vast sea, the blue waves are beautiful and the sea breeze is blowing.
The black pressure pressed a large area of sea ships slowly, the sails hunting, but in the warm sunshine but clearly exuded coldness, silent, indifferent, giving people an invisible coercion, as if it was a deadly ghost ship drilled out of hell.
Three trenches were dug in the shoal, about one zhang deep, one zhang wide, and there was a passage in the middle for people to enter and exit, and behind the trenches was a solemn army.
The draft of the sea ship was deep, and there was no way to sail into the shallows and rush ashore directly, and gradually stopped, but the people on the boat did not immediately jump down and charge, this scene made Wei Chigong chuckle in his heart - it was only the rabble that charged indiscriminately, and it was the regular army that was organized and disciplined.
"Could it really be that the Imperial Army is pretending to be pirates?"
"The imperial court is going to do something to the King of Han?"
One thought after another flashed through his mind, Wei Chigong's eyes froze, and he shouted: "Don't panic, listen to the old man's orders, just play according to the usual training, and keep it safe." ”
The soldiers were indifferent, but they tightened their grip on their weapons.
At this time, a cheer came: "But Eguogong? ”
Wei Chigong was a little familiar when he heard the shout, he was stunned for a moment, and then stepped forward and shouted, "Who is coming?" ”
"The Duke of Eguo, there is a decree in the sage, as long as you lead the army to return to the court, you will not blame the past, and the official will be a hussar general, and control the soldiers and horses in the world, the saint also said that the Duke of Eguo is loyal to the martyrs, and his military achievements are impressive, so he should not come to this step, and he should look at the Duke of Eguo to rein in the precipice and turn back in time."
Wei Chigong sneered: "What if the old man doesn't accept it? ”
"Then there is no grass on this island today!" The voice sounded again, a little more cold and domineering.
"The imperial court unites the Japanese state and pirates to attack the old man, so he is not afraid of spreading the word and losing his reputation?"
"The Duke of Eguo laughed, this is a solicitor, how could the Governor of the Navy join forces with the Wa Kingdom and the pirates? Wouldn't it be ridiculous and generous for the dignified Duke of Hubei to plant such a false accusation? Give you ten breaths to think about it, if you don't surrender, don't blame the court for being unkind and the officials for being unjust, and there will be no grass on the island at that time. ”
Wei Chi Gong laughed angrily: "Li Tai Xiao'er, do you dare to do it?" The person who killed the king and killed his father, he is also worthy of the old man's loyalty, so if he has the ability, he will use it. ”
"Eguo Gong is really a brave person, and he is not afraid of death, so you don't give your family a way to live?"
"It's you who should leave your family alive." Wei Chigong sneered disdainfully: "With the ability of the King of Han, who can be the enemy in the world, when the King of Han frees up his hand, he will definitely clean up Li Tai'er at that time, and see how you can escape at that time?" The old man will be waiting for you below, hahaha! ”
"You-"
"Hubris, attack!"
The other party was furious and yelled loudly.
"Dongdong, Dongdong!"
The drums of war sounded, shaking the sea and urging people to fight.
Countless people jumped out of the sea boat and rushed forward with the water, which was a little slow due to the influence of the water, but the archers on the sea boat shot almost at the same time, and a large number of feathered arrows flew forward, obscuring the sky and the sun, casting a dark cloud on the beach.
Almost at the same time, Wei Chigong shouted: "Dodge the arrow!" ”
The soldiers jumped into the trench in front of them, and the arrows flew in an arc, making it difficult to dodge on the ground, but jumping into the trench was different, and unless they fell vertically, they could not be shot at all.
After Yu Chigong jumped down the trench, he climbed onto a springboard made of wood, looked ahead, just when the second round of feather arrows came, this time it was changed to a large angle of upward shooting, and the feather arrows went straight to the trench, but the angle was still not enough, and countless feather arrows fell on the soil wall opposite the trench, and did not hurt the soldiers who were hiding underneath.
Perhaps realizing that this would not work, the third round was a throw, and the feather arrows rushed into the sky, and after reaching the commanding heights, they fell, and went straight to the trench, and the soldiers in the trench had already reacted after two rounds of feather arrow attacks, and raised their shields to block the air.
"Aggressive!"
A series of arrows hitting the shield sounded, and the few that fell into the trench were blocked, and most of the feathered arrows were on the ground on both sides of the trench, and this kind of projectile was not accurate to speak of, and it was all a matter of luck to hit the trench.
But the imperial army did not stop and continued to shoot.
Wei Chi Gong did not move, staring at the rushing army, the majestic body gave people confidence, and the soldiers looked at Yu Chi Gong inexplicably with a lot of peace of mind.
Seeing that the imperial army rushed onto the beach and rushed over, the corners of Wei Chigong's mouth hooked up a sneer of disdain, the court archers had already shot five rounds, their arms were strained, and they couldn't bear it if they came three rounds at most, it was their turn to do it, and shouted: "The archers listen to the order, shoot on their back!" ”
In the trench, everyone has usually trained to shoot back, and they know the angle, so they have pulled out their big bows and aimed at a height of about a foot above the trench, and the arrows shot out at this angle can be nearly 100 meters, which can cover the front of the beach.
"Put!"
"Hugh Hugh!"
A large puff of feather arrows roared away, drawing a parabola in the void, slamming into the rushing imperial army, knocking down a large number of people.
The soldiers couldn't see the shooting effect, and they didn't bother to care, so they continued to shoot arrows according to their usual training, which made the recruits feel less stressed and more calm.
After three rounds of feather arrows, Wei Chi Gong saw that the results were good, but there were too many imperial troops, and most of them rushed up, and decisively ordered: "Hold down, shoot!" ”
The archers lowered their angles, and their arrows flew out almost against the ground above the trench.
As soon as the angle is small, the flight distance of the feather arrow is shortened, and it just falls in the court army that rushes up, and a large piece is put down again, Wei Chigong looked at this scene and praised it, it is worthy of being created by the invincible King of Han, this fixed ruler attack method is really powerful.
After two rounds of feather arrows, the imperial army rushed to a distance of sixty meters, and shot at the bottom of the trench at no angle, Wei Chigong shouted: "Come to power!" ”
The soldiers climbed up to the jumping platform one after another, the jumping platform is about two meters higher than the bottom of the ditch, there are steps to go up, people are on the jumping platform, the ground is level with the chest, you can clearly see the imperial army rushing up, no need for Wei Chi Gong to order, everyone shoots quickly and freely according to the usual training.
Fifty or sixty meters away from a direct shot, the accuracy has greatly increased, and after a rain of arrows, a piece of ground is lying on the ground.
After three rounds of arrow rain, the imperial army rushed to a position of more than ten meters in front of the first trench, and Wei Chigong decisively shouted: "Beat the drum, send a signal!" ”
"Winter, winter!"
The drums roared, one long and two short, and spread all over the battlefield.
The sword and shield soldiers hiding in the trench quickly moved and rushed along the communication trench to the front trench.
Almost at the same time, the imperial army also rushed to the edge of the trench, but they were dumbfounded, the trench was one zhang wide, that is, more than three meters, and they couldn't jump at all, and they couldn't jump without jumping, and if they stopped, they were live targets.
A splash of feather arrows roared, and countless people fell, some people fell down screaming after being hit by the arrow, the imperial army panicked, and finally rushed up to kill, no military order to retreat is a deserter, not to mention that retreating is also to hand over the back to the opponent, and the live target is undoubted, they have gritted their teeth and jumped down.
