Chapter 625: Collapse at the touch of a button

Li Shi's combined fleet has all been assembled, whether it is an elite division or a rabble, at least the scale seems to be quite large.

The main fleet of twenty large warships, thirty medium-sized warships, and hundreds of small warships of the Great Zhou Navy Division was personally commanded by Li Shi and was responsible for launching an attack from the south side of Shunfeng Harbor.

The First Fleet was the Toei Fleet consisting of more than 100 medium and large warships led by Namitsu Shohiko, who were responsible for attacking from the north side.

The second fleet is a fleet of dozens of pirate ships led by Captain Jack, who are responsible for covering the flanks of the main fleet, and the third fleet is the Yizhou fleet led by Qian Yunfei, with about twenty warships of different sizes, responsible for the rearguard.

In fact, everyone knows that the real main fleet is the Dongying fleet of the famous people, and the Great Zhou Navy Division and the pirate fleet are just assisting in the attack, as for the Yizhou Navy Division, they are purely here to fight soy sauce......

Li Shi is very smart, although Xi is the commander-in-chief, but he did not forcibly seize power, and he was also very polite to Shaoyan Mingguang, and when discussing the battle plan, he put his identity very low, and he also obeyed Shaoyan Mingguang's battle plan and did not interfere in the slightest.

He was even willing to cooperate with Shaoyan Mingguang to some extent, and promised to do his best to replenish him with gunpowder, bows and arrows, food and other materials.

In this way, the cooperation between the two sides is very pleasant.

Li Shi was even more generous to the pirate fleet, clearly promising that every time they sank a Russ warship, they would give a corresponding reward according to the tonnage of the warship, which was an extra reward and was not included in the employment fee!

The summer solstice is approaching, and the Combined Fleet officially sets sail, riding the wind and waves, and approaching the Shunfeng port.

On the eve of sailing, Li Shi wrote a unique letter to Li Wanjiang, at the end of the book, saying: When the child wears gold armor in a bloody battle, he will not return if he does not break the northern captivity!

Li Wanjiang was silent for a long time after reading it.

Qin Gang's order to Wei Yuntian was to take the golden beach on the eve of the summer solstice, which was equivalent to a military order, and the military order was like a mountain!

This was originally an impossible task, Qin Gang actually didn't point to Wei Yuntian to be able to complete it, he just hoped that Wei Yuntian could block the soldiers and horses of Golden Beach for a few days, so that he could go all out and attack Shunfeng City without distractions.

But Dugulou didn't think so, he wanted to take this opportunity to train his troops, and by the way, he would take down the golden beach.

The navy under his command has more than 5,000 people, and although it has undergone nearly a year of rigorous and demanding training and carried out countless military exercises, it has never experienced a single actual battle.

And for an army, the significance of one actual combat is far better than ten exercises!

Only through the baptism of blood and fire can a truly powerful army be created.

As the saying goes, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while, now is the time to test their strength.

At present, there are 2,000 defenders, 3,000 motorized cavalry, thousands of sailors, and more than 80 large and small warships, the smallest of which is much larger than the small warship under Dugulou.

Not a component at all.

But Dugulou plans to use these 'rats' to fight against the 'tigers' of the Rus.

Of course, you need to be strategic, and you can't do it brutely.

However, when he led a large army to Jinsha early in the morning before the summer solstice, it seemed that he was planning to do it brutally.

More than 100 small warships marched down the Bailong River, lined up the offensive formation on the wide river, and put on an offensive posture.

The five thousand cavalry also set up a battle under the city with great force, beating drums, shouting, and shouting, as if they were planning to fight the Rus to the death.

Although Xiao Chen is not the boss, but the handsome flag is still his banner, a big Xiao character flag fluttering in the wind, Xiao Chen under his banner is wearing the imperial treasure armor, riding a high-headed horse, majestic and murderous.

Pointing at the head of Sands City, chattering, and the state is very arrogant.

Much to the annoyance of the Rus' soldiers.

When did the Chinese people become so arrogant?

him!

The chief general of Jinsha Beach is called Ivan, he is a very good general, and he also attaches great importance to intelligence, he started intelligence reconnaissance as early as when Xiao Chen was just stationed in Changshan Prefecture.

After Qin Gang's army arrived, he knew that the war was about to break out, and the spies sent out were endless, and he basically felt the situation on Xiao Chen's side.

I know that for some reason he has basically disbanded all the troops under his command, and only a small part of the city defense force remains.

Most of these units were new recruits, and theoretically they had no combat effectiveness at all.

Before, Xiao Chen led a group of old and weak soldiers, and when he fought against Xian Xiao and Mo Xuan, there were heavy casualties, and there were very few left......

All in all, the 20,000 under Qin Gang's command are fine soldiers, but Xiao Chen's subordinates should be just a rabble.

As for those battleships on the Bailong River that are the same as small shrimps, they simply made the Rus laugh their big teeth!

You don't need to fire a cannon at all to deal with these small boats, as long as you hit them directly, won't they all turn into powder all of a sudden?

Therefore, Xiao Chen came to attack Golden Beach with such a group of people, which was obviously just a bluff, and its purpose was nothing more than to contain the military strength of Golden Beach.

This is actually a remarkable judgment.

It's a pity that he only knows one and doesn't know the other, and seriously underestimates Xiao Chen's cunning.

I didn't know that Li Ling, the general who led the troops this time, was the invincible Fulou general back then......

With a few cannon shots earth-shattering, the gate of Jinsha City was opened, the drawbridge at the gate fell, and a team of fierce Rus cavalry galloped out, and they didn't line up in any formation, and rushed directly towards Xiao Chen and them!

Xiao Chen looked at it, oh,?

Is it so arrogant?

How dare you rush Lao Tzu's array so easily!

Didn't you see that our two wings have been deployed with hundreds of archers pressing the formation?

Give me arrows!

Of course, there was no need for him to give orders personally, the flags of the Chinese army waved, and the archers on both wings immediately began to release arrows, and the arrows were like flying locusts, shooting at the tip of the Rus cavalry charge!

But what rushed out were all heavily armored cavalry almost armed to the teeth, and even the war horses were covered with chain armor, and bows and arrows fell one after another, failing to cause effective damage at all.

Before they had time to shoot the second round of bows and arrows, the Rus' cavalry had already rushed to a distance of about a hundred paces, and the cavalrymen who rushed to the front drew their muskets one after another and began to shoot, their muskets were powerful and long-ranged, and they already had considerable lethality at a distance of a hundred paces.

The archers were instantly suppressed by the muskets, and the second round of bows and arrows was scattered and unshaped.

In such an instant, they rushed dozens of paces away, and some of the strong-armed Rus' cavalry began to throw javelins, which were much more powerful than bows and muskets at such a close distance.

Xiao Chen's front army panicked instantly, and there was a mess under the back.

I don't know who shouted that the wind was tight, and thousands of people and horses didn't dare to fight at all and fled in all directions!
