The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Chapter four hundred and eighty as one wishes

The Song army's reaction was still "clumsy" in the face of the sudden attack. Some ships actually drove into the Hunhe River in a panic. Of course, there were also loyal people. Several warships left the formation and faced the Jin army warships rushing towards them.

The collision was not able to exert its power of the guns, and the Jin army's boats were flexible and easily avoided their collisions and fired rockets at them by cameras.

The sails of this era are basically made of oil cloth, and they are on fire. Once the fire catches, they will spread to the entire ship. The artillery of the Song army warships cannot play a role at this time and lack melee weapons. They can only helplessly avoid it and go straight and quickly.

He drove forward, quickly opened the distance and hid outside the range of the bow and arrow. He ignored his butts and just exposed the transport fleet he protected to the Jin army's attack front, while the warships behind him were

I can't arrive in time, and a game of wolves eating sheep is about to be staged.

At this moment, more than 20 Jin army's boats also launched an attack on the east coast. Their mission was very clear, which was to launch a feint attack on the front, transfer the Song army's warships away, and then use fire ships to attack the transport fleet. As long as the attack succeeded, the enemy would be defeated.

The intercepted on this section of the river cannot advance or retreat. These big guys who cannot move became targets for their attack. At that time, the waiting brigade of naval forces could calmly launch a general attack and annihilate them at the Sanjiangkou.

The boat was equipped with eight pairs of sixteen oars, and many oars were rowing together, and the sails were hanging down the current, with a very fast speed. Because the Song army's warships were attracted by the frontal attack, they were gone without the fierce artillery fire.

Blocking made the Jin army even more bold. Of course, the infantry and cavalry on the Song army transport ship refused to sit and waited for death, and also began to shoot and block. The Jin army learned the lesson of being hit by the Song army's infantry and cavalry last time, and they lay on the fireboat.

A layer of soil is covered with wooden boards, and then accumulating fire-induced objects. This not only keeps the ship stable during sailing, but also prevents the bottom of the ship from being easily penetrated by enemy guns and bullets and sinking.

The firewood and soil piled up in the cabin have now become the best bunker for Jin army sailors. Bullets hit it like stone oxes entering the sea, without lethality, and the sporadic artillery fire of the Song army also poses very limited threat to them.

After all, the artillery lacks the experience of shooting on swaying boats, and the artillery used cannot be fixed on land. Each shot must be re-adjusted, so it is impossible to form a barrage like a sway gun.

Their threat is minimal, and it is not as good as the fire-striking shooting of a continuous gun.

After approaching the middle of the river, the speed of the water increased. The Jin army sailors stopped rowing and moved to the small boat tied at the stern. After igniting the fire ship, they cut off the connected ropes and let them go downstream to the Song army's fleet.

And they were escaping their lives. They were paddling without looking back and fleeing beyond the range of Song Jun firearms as fast as possible. Next, they were waiting to appreciate the tragic situation of a fire dragon struggling on the river...

"DuShuai, thick smoke has risen in the east, and the enemy warships in the front are also led away. Should we launch an attack?" The deputy general of the Jin army's flagship reminded Xu Wendao again.

"Wait a little longer, wait for the fire to grow bigger." Xu Wen said as he looked at the thick smoke rising from the river. He understood that the fire ship must have been launched at this moment, but because the Song army's hull was tall and blocked its sight, he could not see clearly.

The specific situation of the battle. The Song army's fleet did not stop advancing because of the attack and still turned to Lianghe. This made him feel a little uneasy and decided to wait and see.

"Du Shuai, there is a fire in the east, and an explosion is coming. They succeed!" the deputy general shouted excitedly.

"I am the commander to order the entire army to attack the enemy's downstream central army. In this battle of life and death, each army must do its best. Those who advance will reward them, and those who retreat will be killed!" Xu Wen looked to the east, and the clouds were red, following the scene of redness.

The Song army ship was ignited and made loud noises, with flames shining everywhere, and thick smoke covering the entire river surface, indicating that the ambush on the east bank had successfully completed the interception mission. He ordered loudly.

With Xu Wen's order, the sound of war drums and horns rang out one after another. Countless warships hidden behind the sandbank and among the reed marshes on the west bank flocked out. Small warships such as boats and loaches were used as vans, and large-scale warships of the sea falcons

The ships were arrested together and rushed towards the thin fleet of the Song naval army. In this battle, the Jin naval army warships were all out, and they fought with the Song army to completely defeat their attempt to attack Liaoyang from the water. For a moment, the Sanjiangkou was on the surface of the ten miles of the river.

The boat is like a crucian carp, and the sound of killing is shocking the sky...

"Ling Weizhen, Weiyang and other five warships blocked the estuary of Hunhe River, and three warships including Weilong and Weibao were blocked after the transport fleet entered Lianghe River, and three warships including Weiming and Weixin were blocked.

Block the river channel of the upper reaches of the Liao River, and the remaining warships face the enemy brigade." Ma Wei stood on the top deck of the flagship tower, holding a telescope and watching the Jin army dynamically give orders.

"Report to the Grand Commander, the Jiangling Navy has sunk all the fire ships released by the enemy on the east coast, waiting for the next order." Tian Yang reported at this time.

"Okay, remember the first merit first. Let him guerrilla attack on the left wing of the battle formation, intercept the remaining enemies, and wait for the enemy to disintegrate and pursue the encirclement and suppress the enemy!" Ma Wei nodded.

Guantongshou quickly conveyed the orders issued by the flagship to each ship through the flag language. After receiving the order, the warship quickly formed the plan to sail towards the battle position, and the transport fleet also accelerated the speed and quickly turned into the Lianghe River.

"Master General, I wonder what Xu Wen would feel when he found out that the fleet he was preparing to attack suddenly turned into warships?" The order was issued, and the whole army moved together. Tian Yang put down his telescope and asked with a smile.

"Haha, you still need to ask, you must be surprised and happy. He beat our main naval warships in one go, and he will become the boss of Liaodong Bay from now on!" Ma Wei replied with a smile on his face.

"Haha, I don't think so. He was only surprised but not happy. When he found out that something was wrong, he must have wanted to escape in panic." Song Yi said with a loud laugh.

"Where is he escaping? The estuaries of the upper reaches were blocked, and our rear troops were waiting for him downstream. When they got into the river, Jiangling naval army was chasing him, unless he went ashore to be a land duck!" Tian Yang said with a smile.

"Don't underestimate the enemy, look, the Jin army's warships are equipped with catapults, and the sea falcons have crossbows. Although our warships are strong, they can be very helpful for a while. Please inform each ship to wait until they enter the range and then turn these big guys first.

Kill them and deal with those little shrimps." Amid their jokes, Zheng Hai, who was responsible for the specific battle of the navy, dared not neglect and kept watching the opponent's dynamics.

"Okay, no matter how much I talk about the rest, I will be blindly commanding. I will just watch the show and ask for the results. The command will be handed over to you." Ma Wei is still self-aware. Although he was praised by the emperor as an amphibious war expert,

But his strengths are that he knows the rules of water war and understands the responsibilities of land war, and can coordinate the war between the two armies, but in a specific battle, he still has to let the virtuous...

From the conversations of several generals of the Song army, we can hear that this was definitely not their temporary intention, but a carefully planned concealment. While Heye was resting, although he saw that the combat effectiveness of the Jiangling Navy was enough to deal with the harassment of the Jin Navy,

But after all, they only had forty warships, but they still seemed unable to face the entire Jinshui Army. Therefore, they thought about how to severely damage the enemy, causing them to lose the ability to raid large-scale operations, and solve the problem once and for all.

But at this time, Jin Shuijun, who came to harass him every now and then disappeared, which made Ma Wei and others very puzzled. Then they sent Jiangling Shuijun to cooperate with the front army to search carefully but found no trace of them. So they thought of following the Song army

As soon as he approached, Xu Wen must have been under pressure from the top leaders of the Jin Dynasty, and understood that although harassment could cause certain losses to the Song army, he could not stop him from advancing. His sudden retreat was planning a war to deal with heavy damage to Song.

The army forced it to give up its plan to attack Liaoyang.

Several senior generals agreed with Ma Wei's analysis, and their ideas coincided with Xu Wen and wanted to severely hit their opponents through a decisive battle, but they still knew nothing about where they chose to fight. After some research,

Their eyes were all at the mouth of Sanjiang River. The water conditions here are complex and covered with water lakes. The sandbanks are a good place to hide their troops. Moreover, the river estuary has many shallows, and the big ships on their sides are difficult to circulate, and they can leverage the advantages of the Jin army's small boats.

The waters can also allow them to arrange troops calmly, and they can launch an attack when they turn to Lianghe.

After determining the combat waters, Ma Wei and others formulated corresponding combat plans to ensure that they did not alarm the Jin army to discover that the Song army was also ready to fight with them, and to ensure the safety of the baggage fleet and make full use of themselves

The advantage of eliminating the enemy. So they formed a bait fleet, and the fleets sailing in the front were still mixed with warships and transport ships, but concentrated all the main warships of the central army behind them, and the brigade's

The transport ship and the baggage ship did not move at all and remained in Heye.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of the Jin army, the Song army fleet made great efforts to march in a single column, and carefully disguised the warships. From a distance, it looked no different from the past. After entering the Sanjiangkou waters, Ma Wei and others based on

Judging from the terrain, they will lean to the east when turning so as to enter Lianghe. The Jin army will ambush here and will lie on the east coast, which will shorten the attack distance and reduce casualties, and will deploy the feint attack fleet on the river.

To the west of the heart, they placed the Jiangling Navy on the right wing against the Jin army's main attack fleet.

The Song army was determined but not intentional. When Xu Wen launched an attack according to his plan, the Song army warships leading the way pretended to be in trouble and sailed into the Lianghe River and Hunhe River estuaries to seize the battle position and block the battlefield. The transport ships followed were still

According to the plan, turn to Lianghe to confuse the Jin army and lure it to launch an attack, and then use the Jiangling Navy to attack and annihilate their fire attack fleet. At that time, what Xu Wen saw and heard was the explosion that the Jiangling Navy destroyed the fire ship.

The sound and the rising fire made them mistakenly think that they succeeded and launched a general attack. But what awaited them was the black muzzle of the Song army warship...
