Chapter 159: A Naval Battle with Zero Battle Damage
Xu Fu's reaction did not exceed Zhao Si's expectations.
Before leaving for the banquet, Zhao Si carefully analyzed Xu Fu's possible reaction.
Either run or fight.
Without the third possibility, it was impossible for Xu Fu to surrender, and it was impossible for Great Qin to accept Xu Fu's surrender.
The current situation is not unexpected, and of course, it is easy to deal with.
"Then ...... Go ahead with the plan. Jing smiled and motioned for the fleet to move closer to the shore.
"Sail!"
Jing Fa gave the order, and twenty ships set off and approached the port.
With the approach of the Great Qin warship, there was obviously a riot on the shore.
At present, Xu Fu's military strength is relatively mixed, although Xu Fu claims to be the emperor, but he is not a real emperor.
Today's Fusang is considered to be the joint rule of Xu Fu and the stranded Qin people, Xu Fu is the largest noble, the other stranded Qin people are the foundation of the rule, and the Fusang natives are the bottom.
Xu Fu has the most manpower, weapons and wealth, although he deterred most of the people with coercion and lure when he was in the palace, but!
That's Daqin!
When Daqin's warships began to approach, not to mention this group of old Qin people, even Xu Fu himself panicked.
Even if there are only twenty warships and one or two thousand men.
Even at this moment, Xu Fu's troops have more than 100,000 people and tens of thousands of soldiers.
But everyone knows that the other party represents Great Qin, what kind of country is that?
It was a country that could raise millions of troops at will, a country that had built hundreds of huge ships just to seek the elixir of life, and even more people died in the process of that terrifying country dominating the world, even more than all the local population of Fuso combined.
They were born in the Central Plains, and even if ten years have passed, they still can't forget that terrifying country and king.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"
As soon as the ship started, the battle flag had just fluttered, and the "civil and military officials" under Xu Fu had begun to be timid.
Everyone knows how strong their opponents are. Rival? Can they really be called rivals?
No matter what the image of the First Emperor is or how the remnants of the Six Kingdoms are discredited, they will only make a fuss about the cruelty of the First Emperor, not weakness.
It was clear to everyone that the will of the First Emperor could not be shaken.
When the Great Qin warship crossed here, the will of the First Emperor had arrived, and everyone knew what it meant to reject the will of the First Emperor.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty...... King Qin was brutal...... I'll wait...... I might as well wait to move elsewhere and make another plan......"
The war had not yet started, but the "civil and military officials" under Xu Fu were already beginning to think about running away.
"Transfer? Where to go? What to transfer in? Xu Fu's rhetorical question made the "civil and military officials" stagnant.
Oh, yes...... Since Zhao Si seized the ship and went to sea, the ship was demolished by Xu Fu to repair the house.
Run now, what to run? Canoe plank boat? Where can the vast sea go?
Daqin's twenty warships are still lying across the sea.
Great Qin's warships continued to urge...... As we approached the harbor.
Xu Fu's men moved!
It's a native of Fuso!
The bravery of the indigenous people of Fusang is worthy of recognition, they don't understand what the meaning of the representative of Daqin is, they only know that there are only these twenty warships and one or two thousand people on the sea, and they are outnumbered.
Ignorant...... Sometimes it's a kind of courage.
Although the natives used soft bows, their arrows shot farther than those of Xu Fuzhi's martial arts.
It's a pity...... Jing left enough safety distance, and the arrows could not reach the warship, so they could only fall on their stomachs on the surface of the sea and float with the waves.
......Seeing this, Jing continued to order the ship to move, and then controlled the ship to the limit distance of the opponent's range.
"The ignorant are fearless...... Lin Baiyu shook his head, standing on the deck and looking at the indigenous soldiers jumping up and down, and there were even indigenous soldiers pushing the boat and preparing to go to sea.
"This group of natives is quite interesting." Jing shook his head and smiled.
"When we first landed, we swept away the indigenous tribes, they were afraid of the sword soldiers, and chose to surrender, the blame is here, after they became slaves, they were not afraid of life and death." Jing smiled and gave Lin Baiyu a popular science, not minding the approach of the indigenous boat at all.
"Although they are short, they are full of ferocity, as long as they can suppress them, they are not afraid of life and death, and they are good things for the gatekeepers." Lin Baiyu gave a high evaluation when he heard this.
Not afraid of life and death, but only strong, isn't this the best slave?
It's a pity, a bit short...... It looks like a monkey.
"How's farming? Is it effective? Lin Baiyu asked.
"Senior brother wants to ask if these natives are suitable for reclamation and mining, right?" Jing smiled.
Jing's job has been decided, he is in charge of exploring the open sea, while Lin Baiyu is responsible for searching for mineral deposits in the Fusang area, clearing up wasteland and mining, and organizing offshore development.
"Yes, you have to ask......" Lin Baiyu smiled.
"It's still okay to cultivate the wasteland, but strange to say, they learn to farm very quickly and work diligently." Jing spoke highly of the indigenous people of Fusang.
"So much for the best! If it is used effectively, the Central Plains side does not need to continue to mobilize manpower to launch conscription. ”
While the two were chatting, the natives' plank boats and wooden boats had already begun to approach and began to try to shoot bows and arrows at the big ship, and some natives were under the cover of arrows, approaching Daqin's sea ship at great speed, and the oars were shaking rapidly, as if they wanted to take the opportunity to board the ship to fight.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Jing Yan saw that the other party had reached the range of Qin's crossbow, and gave orders!
Compared with the soft bow of the natives, the arrows of the Qin crossbow are sharper and have a longer range, only a thousand Qin crossbows, but the thousands of natives are powerless to resist.
"Try this!"
Lin Baiyu pulled Jing!
I saw two giant crossbows on the hull of the ship!
The winch wrapped around the twine gradually tightened and wound, and the two soldiers carried the arrows to load.
It's carrying......
Because the light arrows are the thickness of the forearm, more than three meters long.
With the sound of a tooth-souring winch tightening, the filling was complete.
Lin Baiyu personally took aim, and then released the winch.
The arrows rushed out like thunder...... Straight for each other's canoes!
The huge arrows fell, and the inferior canoe was directly cut off by the waist, and several natives on the boat were swept away by the huge waves, struggling repeatedly in the water.
"The effect is average......" Jing shook his head.
"It's still not as practical as a trebuchet!"
The giant winch ship crossbow is only one of the results of the transformation of the Yin-Yang family, but unfortunately the effect is not very ideal.
It's too cumbersome, the launch and reloading speed is too slow, and as for the power, it's also lackluster, hitting canoes and board boats is of course a dimensionality reduction attack, but if you encounter the same large ship, I'm afraid it will be difficult to cause effective damage.
In comparison, ship-borne trebuchets are significantly more convenient and powerful.
"Upper Rack ......"
Although the Fusang natives have been pressed and beaten because of the gap in weapons and equipment and ships, with their fierce and fearless style, they really let them get close to Daqin's sea ships.
Unfortunately, their canoes and plank boats were too small, and the Great Qin soldiers were condescending, and the huge slap rods waved, and the boats were shattered......
"Use a trebuchet......" Jing began.
"This crossbow is still dismantled, with this crossbow, it is better to empty it and load a few more stones."
At present, each ship is equipped with a trebuchet, and in order to install trebuchets, the load capacity of the sea ship is further reduced, and the number of people that can carry it is also smaller, but the combat effectiveness is much stronger than before.
Twenty trebuchets were launched together, and the momentum was great...... However, the hit rate is not too high, after all, this is the sea, and you can't point where to hit.
On the sea, not to mention trebuchets, even the hit rate of artillery is not much higher, and there are many examples of two sea ships firing shells in the Age of Discovery.
However, the natives used canoes and board boats, and the number of people was more and more dense, and twenty trebuchets were launched at once, and the effect of the blow was still very ideal.
The natives fell into the sea like dumplings.
However, it was always difficult to effectively kill Daqin's twenty sea ships, and they didn't even get on board Daqin's sea ships.
"This group of natives is really brave......" Lin Baiyu looked at in amazement.
After a long time, the natives didn't even touch the boat, and now it is estimated that there must be thousands of people who have been thrown into the water.
As for Daqin? Only three or four people were injured because the ship was jolting on the deck.
With such a brutal battle damage, this group of natives could still launch a charge with a howling ghost, which really surprised Lin Baiyu.
"The trebuchet is stopped, try to use the slapstick, and the crossbow arrows are also used." Jing calmly continued to give orders.
Xu Fu looked at the tragic battle situation, and his eyebrows moved slightly.
"Retire! Retire! ”
Seeing that Daqin began to rein in the use of weapons, Xu Fu knew that the trick of using the natives to consume Daqin's ammunition was not good.
He had no choice but to dismantle the twenty ships on the sea, and he could only use canoe and small board boats to get closer.
Taking a step back, the other party didn't want to fight and retreat, and he had no way at all.
Small board boats can't go into the deep sea......
"Push them back...... Find a way to push them back! ”
Xu Fu's mind turned sharply and hit ...... I can't fight it.
Even if Xu Fu was full of scheming, he couldn't stand that this was just Daqin's advance force, he was really afraid that he would fight the small one and the big one.
Now the position has been exposed, it is impossible not to run, but now he does not have a big ship, and he can only use a small board boat to run, if he does not force back these twenty sea ships, the other party will follow behind, lose the advantage of land, lose the advantage of numbers, and Xu Fu can only let the mermaid meat.
Xu Fu was afraid of Master Wang, no matter whether he won or lost, he would definitely not dare to continue to stay in Fusang. As long as we don't land, the advantage is in our hands. Jing smiled and spoke.
"He wants to run, and he has only two options, either push us back or eat us."
"Keep on guard...... These days, he is expected to send natives to harass day and night. ”
"Divide ten sea ships to inspect the sea, and if you find the ships going to sea, you will sink them immediately, and trap them in Fusang first."
"We don't need to rush...... Just need to anchor here and pretend to wait for Master Wang, Xu Fu will naturally be in a hurry. Jing said.
"What about these natives? We don't have reinforcements. ”
"It doesn't matter, Xu Fu is dead, the Qin people on the island have descended, and they will naturally descend, when he was stranded in Fusang, Xu Fu sent more slaves to the crew in order to win people's hearts, and they are all slaves now." Jing Kai explained.
"Then ......," Lin Baiyu pointed at Xu Fu and Xu Fu's civil and military officials, and the meaning was self-evident.
"Don't worry...... They will only submit to the more powerful Great Qin, and for them, the loser is not worthy of their death. ”
"This group of natives is quite comfortable to use."
