Volume 1 Rise in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 18 Siege Warfare

I can't help but say that Black Shark is still a little strategic and courageous, and he dared to impact the backs of five or six hundred people on the other side with more than 200 people. Even those who had already reached the city walls were forced down, and countless people were nailed to death in the water by a rain of arrows from above.

Seeing that there was no way to live, the remaining members of the Wanli Gang on the side of the water village also launched a ruthless attack, regardless of the bows and arrows on the city wall, they reflexively pounced on the Black Shark Gang who came over. The front on the side of the Black Shark Gang was actually penetrated by the other party.

was so angry that the gang leader Black Shark was about to crush his teeth, and he led people to chase after him, and these guys will have no return today! Although they broke through the Black Shark's line, the people of the Wanli Gang still couldn't escape death after all, their big ship had fled from the shore, and they were being chased in embarrassment!

The main cannon on the bow of the Black Shark Gang's warship on the sea roared, and columns of water were pulled up next to the opponent's ship, and the warships of the Wanli Gang fled faster. There were three ships with only sailors on them, and there were no soldiers, and they did not know how to operate their guns at all, and they did not dare to return fire. They had to row their lives to escape, and in the end two of the five escaped. Successfully took down the three large ships without soldiers, and the sailors naturally surrendered to the Black Shark Gang.

With so many more warships, it is impossible for the Black Shark to kill all the sailors, but it just replaced the captain and sent the captain to the valley to take care of the rice, maybe it will be used again in a while. The sailors continued to work on the ship. Their wages were still the same, and they were treated the same as those of the sailors of the gang. This is the benefit of driving a ship exclusively for pirates, unlike soldiers, although they get a lot of money, they also die quickly! Like the previous robberies, all the sailors and captains from other countries were killed, for fear of leaking their information and causing trouble.

After a brief count after the battle, the E-shaped team lost half of its manpower, and the attacking two-and-a-half-brigade lost more than 20 dead and more than a dozen wounded.

"Damn, I thought I would be able to come out this time, but I still have to obey orders! It seems that you have to go through the door of the helper another day! Diao Wenshu muttered in his heart, smiling and smiling.

Black Shark took the remaining five brigades of A, B, D, JI, and Geng and the squadron directly under him, and without stopping for a moment, he went to Yuan Shitang again. It seems that he is determined to get revenge back.

When the six big ships of the Black Shark Gang re-arrived outside the Moon Swallowing Island, the hall master of the Yuan Shi Hall was only a pound. Wu Lu really panicked.

Speaking of which, this hall master Wu Lu is still a descendant of Temujin, at the beginning, he was only a deputy Qianhu of the sailor because of his mediocre ability, and when the Ming Dynasty army arrived, it was useless to fight, so he led a part of the sailor to flee to Swallow Moon Island and lived a pirate life.

Sons are only catty. Wu Lu was born on Swallowing Moon Island, the old hall master and the snatched Nanyang woman. This person can be described in one sentence, he is black-hearted, cowardly, and crippled, and often can't tell the size of things, what he thinks of and what he does. It was his idea to eat black at the beginning. He didn't think about how to deal with the retaliation of others. Fortunately, he had a subordinate to remind him, so he remembered to join the Wanli Gang to deal with it.

In fact, the Wanli Gang was also formed by some people who escaped from the camp of the Guangzhou Navy in the Yuan Dynasty, and it was only because they were unwilling to follow this incompetent deputy Qianhu that they set up their own doors. But he has always been very polite to Yuan Shitang, after all, the other party is the bloodline of the Golden Family. This time, they helped the other party intercept the Black Shark Gang's boat, and they were not prepared. The two sides agreed that once the Black Shark Gang attacked Moon Swallowing Island, the Wanli Gang would immediately send troops to attack Lombok Island. Even if you can't beat it, you will contain the other party.

What the people of the Wanli Gang didn't expect was that the Black Shark Gang would come out. Seven big ships were dispatched at one time, that is, seven brigades were dispatched, so the defense within the Black Shark Gang must be weak. This is the opportunity of the Wanli Gang, once Lombok Island is occupied, the Black Shark Gang will become a rootless duckweed, and it will be much easier to destroy him again when the time comes! That's why half of the gang went to attack Lombok.

The Wanli Gang didn't know that the Black Shark Gang had added a squadron directly under it and owned warships, so they regarded him as a brigade. If this judgment was not wrong before, it can only be blamed on their information lag, which caused the wrong judgment. And the black shark expected this, so he set a trap, although he escaped partially, he still killed one-third of the opponent's people!

Avoiding the harbor shore defense guns of Yuan Shitang, he chose a shoal and landed with a clipper. When landing, there were no people from the Yuan Shi Hall to intercept him, which surprised the black shark. I don't know what tricks the other party is playing. After a little hesitation, he still ordered all the staff to advance, and today he must occupy this Moon Swallowing Island!

Let's say that this will be a mess in the Yuan Shi Hall, Wu Lu ordered people to stick to the port wharf, and at the same time packed some soft bags and prepared to hide on Hunnaya Island, where the Wanli Gang is located. Several times, Bayil, the leader of the port guards, asked whether to attack to intercept the landing of the Black Shark Gang, but all of them were blocked by Wu Lu's guards. Say that the hall master has given an order to keep the harbor! This made Bayil angry.

This is Wu Lu's cleverness, he didn't dare to stay on the island, and he held on to his luck. Let one of his guards stand at the door. Instead, he fled through the tunnels in the room with two personal guards to the other side of the island, where he should have fled in a small boat.

When the black shark led the gang and walked more than a mile away from the wall of the water village of Yuan Shi Tang in a panic, he saw the crowds on the wall of Yuan Shi Tang, and he didn't think much about it, and immediately ordered to prepare to attack the side wall of the water wall. The water village of Yuan Shitang is far worse than that of the Black Shark Gang,! The Black Shark Gang also dug rocks and built a city wall several miles long with stones, surrounding most of the stockade.

This Yuan Shi Tang is good, except for the fort and the water, which are made of stones, the rest of the place is actually made of wood driven into the ground, and mud is sandwiched in the middle! They're really good at fooling things. If you bring gunpowder, a medicine bag will definitely blow up a big gap!

When there was still a mile away from the city wall, the other party had already begun to fire cannons, but fortunately, Chen Zuyi suggested that the helper let everyone disperse and advance, otherwise, with the accuracy of the opponent's cannon, at least dozens of people would die when they got close to the wall! Bad luck is not uncommon!

The Black Shark Gang also often fires cannons, but they are all small cannons, I have never seen artillery that can hit more than a mile, rushing forward against the artillery, everyone is still a little cowardly, if it is not for the Black Shark to lead people to suppress the position at the rear, it is estimated that the artillery alone can make the Black Shark Gang retreat!

There were a few unlucky ghosts who were hit by that solid running bullet, and the whole person became slag. made everyone's legs even weaker, and they almost didn't want to move forward!

"Spread out and rush forward! Hurry up! The slower you are, the more likely you are to get shot! ”

Chen Zuyi and his direct squadron were unwilling to wait for the artillery, so they took the lead and rushed forward. When the rest of the brigade saw someone taking the lead, they couldn't help but speed up! When he reached the two hundred meters, seeing that the other party had prepared a bow and arrow, Chen Zuyi took off his bow and arrows and shouted:

"The shield bearer raises his shield and moves forward!"

More than a dozen people from the direct team who dragged large wooden shields were in front first, and their movements were calm and neat, and then hundreds of people from other teams dragged to the front. was so anxious that Chen Zuyi couldn't wait to pull out a knife and cut people! While he was waiting, his squad had already five or six shieldmen blasted away by the opponent's artillery, and the scene was so bloody that even his squadron couldn't hold it anymore! Thankfully, the shield-bearer finally raised his shield.

"Forward!"

"Bow and arrow ready!"

More than 100 shieldmen held up large wooden shields and advanced in a not very neat manner, and everyone also took off their bows and arrows behind their backs to follow the pace of the shieldmen. When the whole team was only one hundred and fifty or sixty paces away from the city wall, more than five hundred people drew their bows together like a full moon, and the tips of their arrows pointed diagonally into the air.

Chen Zuyi was still at the forefront, he was under the shield of a shield hand, almost a hundred steps away from the city wall, the arrows shot from the city were like raindrops hitting the wooden shield, Chen Zuyi hissed and shouted:

"Withdraw the shield! Shoot the arrows! ”

All the shieldmen removed their shields, and in an instant, dozens of people were nailed into their heads or shoulders by arrows from above, and they died! The archers under the shields also immediately loosened their bowstrings, which were like full moons.

"Buzz! Airplanes! Airplanes! …”

Waves of arrows rained down on the city wall, and many people on the city wall were pierced into hedgehogs by the rain of arrows because they had nowhere to hide. The gunners, who were cleaning the chambers of the artillery, also fell to the ground, and only some of those who managed to hide under their shields in time survived.

"Siege!" Taking advantage of the fact that no one showed up on the other party's city wall, Chen Zuyi shouted!

I saw that there were more than a dozen people in each team, with an iron claw hook tied to a rope in their hands, and after a few rounds in their hands, they opened their mouths and exhaled, and threw out the claw hooks in their hands with a "hey". The black iron claw hook made an arc in the air, and it hung on the city wall with a "bang".

"Archer cover! On the wall! ”

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”
