"Well, the fleet ahead stops and is being inspected by the Dengzhou Marines." The forward fleet was rapidly approaching, and threatening shouts were heard.

"Damn, brothers, the other party doesn't follow the rules, and they will kill Lao Tzu." Chao Gai looked at the crossbow bolts nailed to the deck, thinking about the thrilling scene before, and then looked at Li Qingzhao with a big belly, and his eyes turned red all of a sudden. instructed Huazi to pull the two pregnant women and rush to the cabin to hide. He strode to the bow of the ship, roaring and lifting the black cloth. Revealing a domineering, hideous bed crossbow arrow with a winch.

At the same time, on several other warships, the soldiers also rushed to the bow of the ship and lifted off the black cloth. Revealing the hideous bed crossbow that was hidden.

The bed crossbow, the full name of the three-bow bed crossbow, is also known as the "eight-cow crossbow".

This was a military weapon of the Song Dynasty. In order to achieve a greater shooting effect, it takes 30 people to combine the three large bows to pull them apart.

The arrow is made of hard wood as the shaft, the iron piece is the feather, the world is called "one gun and three sword arrows", the bed crossbow can also be fired "stepping arrows", it is spectacular when fired, the arrows are like javelins, the close-range firing can be directly nailed into the city wall, when the salvo is fired, the rows of walking arrows are firmly nailed into the city wall, and the siege soldiers can climb up by this.

And the bed crossbow on several ships is a little different, don't forget the weapon master Li Qingwan, there are no less improvements, all of them have been improved by the Chaojiazhuang Military Factory, compared with the ordinary bed crossbow, not only the noose is stronger and the range is longer, but the muzzle is also carved with a crosshair, which is conducive to aiming and shooting. Due to the difficulty of R&D and manufacturing, priority is given to the use of passes and thousands of ships.

Han Shizhong saw Chao Gai controlling the bed crossbow expressionlessly, and knew that his brother was really angry, so he hurriedly shouted at Ruan Xiaoqi in the command room: "Xiao Qi, playing the flag and daring to attack the imperial court officials is a major crime of rebellion." ”

He has been following Chao Gai for so long, and he has learned a lot.

For example, standing on the moral high ground and judging them with the power of justice. At present, this situation is suitable for asking first and then fighting, and there is no fear of lawsuits.

With Han Shizhong's roar, he didn't wait for an order to come from the command room. The standard-bearer at the lookout waved the flag. At the same time, the warships quickly dispersed. The three or two thousand soldiers on the ship joined the ranks of the uniform shouts one after another: "Well, you strongmen, dare to attack the official ship, wait for death!" ”

There are more than 4,000 people in the Ping Navy Naval Division. The navy was different from the infantry and cavalry, with different men and men who controlled the warships, plus the soldiers who fought in battle. One battalion is at least one or two thousand people, and the Ping Navy has only two battalions of more than four thousand people.

Now the two battalions have gathered to carry out the pursuit mission together.

Accidentally collide with a fleet of no small size, how can you not come to check it out? The speed of more than 20 warships in the fleet was extremely fast, and they rushed hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye, but this fleet suddenly changed formation, shouting and scolding.

The officers and men of the Ping Navy were dumbfounded, have they become strongmen?

Only on one flagship, there was a loud laugh: "Brothers, don't be afraid. I suspect that this fleet has something to do with the Somali pirates that appeared last time. ”

"My lord, they are from the Jeju government!" The faces of the people around him were full of worry.

"Don't be afraid! What happened to Jeju? Any suspicious fleet is subject to inspection! The laughing man from before stepped back from the bed crossbow and yelled. His name was Liu Mao, and he was the commander of the first battalion of the Ping Navy.

On the day of the incident, the second battalion was on patrol duty, and they were stationed in Shuizhai. But he didn't realize that Salmon Island was the most under the pressure of the attack.

All the soldiers held back their fire, especially his commander Liu Mao, who was scolded every day, and even the position of commander could not be guaranteed, and his heart was extremely depressed. Even when he saw the official flag fluttering in the unknown fleet, Liu Mao didn't care, and personally controlled the bed crossbow to kill a person to vent his shock.

It's like patrolling the sea in the past, when you encounter private caravans and passing caravans. When the two sides meet, they will fire a crossbow arrow first, and the other party will be honest. didn't realize that the other party was not fish and meat, and today's willfulness attracted the disaster of killing.

The sailors of the 2nd Battalion of the Ping Navy heard the scolding and sensed that something was wrong. The commander resolutely ordered the flag to be raised, indicating that everything was a misunderstanding. At the same time, it slows down the fleet and closes its formation, reducing its hostility.

People are divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the wood is divided into pear and red sandalwood, and everyone is different. The commander of the second battalion was a black-faced man seven feet up, in his thirties, with a square face and thick eyebrows, a dignified appearance, and two eyebrows twisted into a river. Watching this happen, I was very dissatisfied with my colleague's launch of the bed crossbow. If the identity of the other party is not confirmed, it is easy to cause friction between the two armies.

When things get bigger, the consequences are very serious.

Seeing that the opposite fleet had this sign, he immediately asked the ships of the headquarters to slow down, and this scene fell into the eyes of the sailors of the first battalion, and the commander made Liu Mao turn his head and see all this, his face full of contempt, and he said disdainfully.

"Damn, after returning the famous generals like this, bullshit."

His taunt was not concealed in the slightest, and the black-faced man on the flagship sailing behind heard it, but only frowned slightly but did not say anything. I didn't forget to kindly remind: "Commander Liu, something is wrong with the situation." It is best to apologize to the other party, resolve the misunderstanding, and avoid conflicts. ”

"What? You asked me to apologize and clear up the misunderstanding? Liu Mao seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, looked up at the sky, and laughed wildly: "Hahaha, will Lao Tzu be afraid of these broken ships in Jeju?" Dare to do it, Lao Tzu ......"

It's a pity that this guy who is the second and third of the earth hasn't finished speaking. I only heard the loud rumbling sound on the flagship coming in the distance, how familiar it was, Liu Mao had served in the Ping Navy for many years and had rich experience, and he instantly thought of the bed crossbow in his mind, and he secretly said that it was not good in his heart, so he subconsciously pounced down and dodged.

But it's too late!

A swishing sound slammed through the air, and a cold, glittering bolt blinked like the hand of death. Liu Mao was just about to duck and dodge, when he sensed that the death crisis was coming, he let out a roar of unwillingness.

Unfortunately, the indomitable crossbow arrow pierced his chest cavity and tore through his body. Liu Mao, a 180-pound man, was directly driven and thrown up. With a pop, the bolt was nailed to the deck. As the shaft of the arrow trembled, its feet swung in mid-air, as if a large salted fish had been hung.

"Ahh Save me. Liu Mao suffered a heavy blow but did not die, he couldn't stop squirting blood foam, and stretched out his hand to ask the soldiers for help as much as possible. It's a pity that with a few struggles, the wound was torn, and before the words were finished, a mouthful of blood with internal organs spit out to the sky, and the body no longer moved.

Commander Liu, who had been crisscrossing the coastal waters for more than ten years, died in a fit of rage, and he did not blink an eye. Staring at more than twenty ships in the distance, they pounced murderously.

This change of events happened too suddenly!

When the soldiers on the ship came to their senses, they saw that their master had been nailed to the cabin. Everyone's hearts were cold, and many people's weapons fell to the ground.

The ships of the second battalion, which were already dozens of meters behind, gasped incessantly. The big square-faced man's pupils contracted violently, and the other party also had a bed crossbow.

He suddenly realized that things were going to get bigger.

Sure enough, the idea just popped into the air! I heard a rumbling in the distance one after another, and there was a whirring sound of breaking the air from far and near, and it was a bed crossbow.

Why does this shabby army have so many sharp weapons?

The conductor was a little puzzled, but then he was even more shocked. Several crossbow arrows more than a meter long burst through the air. The sailors who were still in the god were in trouble, and the sound of puff metal piercing flesh was endless. Standing together and being pierced through their bodies, like sugar gourds. Finally, it was nailed to the deck, and it was really blood-stained sky, and the screams were endless.

It can be seen that the power of the bed crossbow is huge.

But this commander shocked none of them, why did the other party hit so accurately?

During the Northern Song Dynasty, there were many military weapons, such as the divine arm bow and the bed crossbow being the most famous. The latter is extremely powerful on the battlefield and is a sharp weapon for defending the city. It's just that due to the difficulty of operation, the anti-shock force is large, and the quasi-head is not easy to control.

I didn't have a few years to train, and I couldn't hit the target at all.

But the Jeju local officials and soldiers are so accurate that they can't help but be shocked by the square-faced man.

How did he know that the bed crossbow had a maximum range of more than 1,000 paces and a controllable range of 700 steps, and the two fleets charged each other, but only three or five hundred meters.

The gunners of the Chaojia Army's naval army have been trained hard for a long time, and they have a high hit rate. Aim in the direction and shoot at a crowded place, and it is strange if you don't kill the enemy.

The commander of the first battalion of the naval division of the Ping Navy was about to be killed, and he was suddenly attacked. The heart was panicked, the dragons were leaderless, and more than a dozen warships were in a panic.

It was also at this time that the rumbling, the war drums beating, and shouting to kill the heavens.

"Kill, brothers, strangulate the thieves for me!"

"They seem to be Somali pirates, kill me."

"I didn't expect this group of pirate ships to be good, grab them."

The hatches on both sides of more than 20 ships of the Chaojia Army and the Navy popped open, and the oars popped out. The sailors slid desperately, their speed skyrocketed, and they quickly approached the naval fleet. Waving around the flag, three or two boats in a group, flanking left and right.

Han Shizhong, Chen Hu, Zhang San, Li Si and other generals commanded the archers to shoot at the enemy. The swishing sound continued, the arrows rained down, and many Ping Navy soldiers were shot and fell down like wheat, killed or screamed.

For a moment, the scene became even more chaotic.

These are not less extorted at sea, and the sailors who are powerful and powerful have encountered unexpected situations. The soldiers cannot find the generals, and the generals do not know the soldiers, and they shout in vain. Even if someone wanted to organize a counterattack, but was shot at the first time,

Someone even wanted to go and drive a bed crossbow on the bow of a ship.

But before they get closer, a large number of arrows or crossbow arrows will come at you deadly. Several of them were shot in the head, and no one dared to approach them again.

The sparse arrows could not stop the fleet from approaching.

The soldiers on more than a dozen ships hid and fled, and no one dared to take the lead. There are even many people who ask for help from their colleagues behind them, asking for yen.

The twelve ships of the second battalion of the Ping Navy were already more than 100 meters away from the front due to the slowdown. Watching the fleet of colleagues suffer a fierce attack, with heavy casualties. Some people are watching from the sidelines, some people are sad about the death of rabbits and foxes, and some people are waiting to join the war. But the commander of the military commander stared at all this without saying a word.

"My lord, should we help?" Someone on board asked.

"You're a Somali pirate?" The square-faced man felt the gaze of the soldiers around him, turned around and glanced at the person who spoke meaningfully.

The ship fell silent for an instant, and no one said anything more.
