Chapter 170 Killing Khan Seven Over 500
Luo Luo was so moved. Everyone really supported Luo Luo Luo. I had nothing to say, so I would like to give you an additional update!
"The Tartars Khan! I found that the Tartars were sweating!"
On the watchtower of the Tiger battleship, Monk Liu put down his telescope, raised his arm and pointed at a mountain on the south bank of the Yangtze River and started roaring...
Chen Dexing looked up and saw the 9you Baiqi, which symbolized the highest power in Mongolia, slowly moving.
"Absolutely 1,000 steps!" Chen Dexing estimated the distance. Jiuyou Baizhang was about 1,000 steps away from the bank of the Yangtze River, which was about 1,500 meters. The effective range of the three-bow bed crossbow had already been released!
"Ge Meng is heading towards Nantuoshui Village. It seems that he is planning to supervise the army to attack our camp personally. It is better to turn back first..." Monk Liu looked forward with some concern while making suggestions.
The twenty warships of the Pili Navy had completed the formation change, and they had arranged two columns to attack! The Mongolian Navy and Cavalry Army on the opposite side were not blind, so they naturally saw clearly and made corresponding adjustments. Among them, the Mongolian Navy was divided into two parts, and the dozens of ships rushed to the front, regardless of whether there was a fire or not, and they still rushed to the water camp in Nantuochang along the original direction. The ships following behind all leaned to the right - the south bank of the Yangtze River, as if they wanted to block the way of the Pili Navy. However, looking at their dispatch, they could not escape the word "chaos". The formations that were not originally neatly disbanded now, just rushed towards the shore in chaos.
The Mongolian cavalry and infantry on the bank of the Yangtze River were dispatched properly. The Mongolian cavalry dismounted and took out their arches to line up on the shore. In front of them, there were Han soldiers wearing large shields as cover. Several fires were also lit up, which should be used to ignite rockets. Behind the Mongolian archers, the stone generators were also mounted, big and small, and they looked shoddy. However, there were a large number, and as many as a hundred of them had been mounted!
"Brother, the Tartars want to attack us from land and water!" Monk Liu's face was slightly ashen.
Chen Dexing snorted coldly: "This is what I'm waiting for! The Tartars don't know how to fight water, and they don't know how to set stones and thunder. If you want to attack us, you will die. Let's see me kill all the way! Defeat the Tartars' naval army first!"
"But Nantuo Dazhai..."
"Don't worry. Taoist priests and Dali can defend it, and it doesn't take much time!" He just waved his hand fiercely, "Pili Navy, assault! Assault! Assault at full speed"
The order soon became a flag verb for full-speed assault. At this moment, the 3480 wooden oars of twenty warships were struck hard at the same time. They separated the countercurrent and blewed the waves.
"Kill the Tartars! Go to the Heavenly Court! Row harder and work harder..." With the catchy horns, the strength of the 3,480 oarsmen suddenly turned into huge thrust. As mentioned above, the biggest advantage of the three-layer oars warship is its speed - in fact, the extreme speed of this ancient warship can almost catch up with the rowing of later generations! It can reach a high speed of 11 knots on a calm and windless water surface! That is, nearly 20 kilometers per hour! Considering the water flow speed in the Nantuochang area, twenty three-layer oars warships still ran a high speed of about fifteen kilometers per hour at this moment.
"This centipede ship is so fast!" In Shi Tianze's eyes, stretching his neck and watching the game, the speed of fifteen kilometers is almost the same as flying!
"This is still in the countercurrent..." As soon as Brother Wang Tian said, his face suddenly changed. "No! The Nanman wants to grab the countercurrent!"
The countercurrent was already flying. If they were allowed to rush to the backstream behind the Mongolian naval fleet, they would rush up with the water flow. How fast would it be!
"District the downstream? They want to..." Shi Tianze was a little older and slow to react, and he couldn't figure it out at once.
"They are going to hit our ship!" Brother Wang Tian's face turned blue, "Uncle, on this Yangtze River, these centipede ships are heavy armored iron cavalry! Our chain ships are infantry. If the heavy armored iron cavalry rushes..."
Shi Tianze suddenly turned pale. As an old traitor, he could see how the Mongolian cavalry had penetrated the formation. When the Mongolian heavy cavalry ran up and collided with the huge momentum, only the most elite infantry could block it!
And the same principle may apply to centipede ships! If they rushed at full speed, only the most elite navy army could block it... Unfortunately, the Mongolian navy, which had just changed from infantry, was not enough to look at it at all, and could not even put out a minimum formation! It would be a mess when the centipede ship was attacked with a hot bomb. If the opponent was allowed to rush around behind the butt, would it be helpful?
Shi Tianze gritted his teeth and said, "Hurry, hurry up, no matter what, you can't let them surround behind us!"
At this moment, a fierce war broke out! Just between the Mongolian archers, Mongolian Han infantry soldiers arranged along the river and twenty three-layer oar-mounted battleships that were flying rapidly.
The one who had just finished the array was the three thousand Mongolian archers (cavalry) commanded by the Zong Wang Mo Ge (Meng Ge's younger brother), the two thousand Han troops commanded by the 1,000 Semi Men and the Han army, Dong Wenmo, a thousand households. Seeing the warships of the Pili Navy rushing over on the river, Prince Mo Ge roared loudly, and his men under his command used all their strength to pull the horn bow to the fullest. He raised his bow to a certain angle, and suddenly a rain of arrows sprinkled out.
Although these Mongols were almost standing in the river, they were still sixty steps away from Chen Dexing's fleet, and the range of the horn bow was enough, but at this distance the bow power was not enough to penetrate the stairs and man armor worn by the soldiers on the ship, let alone the thick boat boards.
Gao Da had already gone down the lookout tower and commanded on the side of the ship. He suddenly spread the feather arrows with his hands and turned around and roared at the soldiers who were controlling the stone generator and the three-bow crossbow: "Shot! Shoot! Blow him!"
The Tiger battleship was equipped with four plus three bow crossbows and two strike stones. At this moment, the three bow crossbows were loaded with ordinary giant arrows. When he heard the tall order, the soldiers immediately hooked the trigger with their axes!
Four giant arrows immediately shot out to the shore! The Mongolian army on the shore stood densely, as if in a land battle, and screamed suddenly. These huge arrows were shot into such a dense array of infantry!
At the same time, six heavenly thunders were also thrown out by two stone generators. Since the Mongolian soldiers here have not been thundered, they don’t know that they will disperse the formation... Mengge had discussed this issue with his subordinates, but the discussion was discussed, and implementation was another matter. Because pulling the formation can certainly reduce the damage of heavenly thunder, but at the same time it also weakens its own combat effectiveness, so everyone is unwilling to do this before the heavenly thunder hits the head.
So, six heavenly thunders fell from the sky and fell into the crowd! Just like in the battle at Yangzi Bridge, the Tartars did not realize that these iron balls falling from the sky were immediately exploded and were still shooting arrows! Until a huge roar sounded in their ears.
Prince Mo's performance was similar to Zhang Hongfan that day, oh, even worse! He was also lifted to the ground by the war horse under his crotch. What a big Mongolian warrior, he chewed his shit, and fell on the stone-filled Yangtze River beach. He suddenly had a bruised nose and a swollen face and a flowering head! But he didn't die, but his head was covered in blood!
Several personal soldiers rushed up and helped him up. Brother Mo of Warriors didn't care about the injuries on his face and head, and roared and ordered: "Take the iron cannon! Take the iron cannon!"
The more than a hundred stone-generating machines arranged on the river beach were all operated by Semini people. In the eyes of the Mongolian Khan, this weapon was too powerful and not suitable for the Han people to possess, so except for the navy, there was no torsion stone-generating machine in the rest of the Han army. Similarly, the cavalry of the Shihou of the Han army was strictly limited and it was not allowed to build cities on the territory. Only the Li family in Yidu often did it on their own, buying horses and building cities.
The so-called Semu means that all kinds of people are - except for the Han and Mongolians, all kinds of people are enough to become the second level of the Mongolian Empire, Semu people! Most of the great merchants who served as civil servants and control the business in the northern region are Semu people. In the Mongolian army, there are also many Semu people! Moreover, there are many good craftsmen among Semu people, and the torque generators they created... Well, of course they are all cheating goods. This is not because their skills are not good, but because the Sichuan army lacks the advantages of long-term placement and water has already evaporated. It is made of wood, and a lot of craftsmen and the measuring tools used by Han craftsmen are also varied. The stone generators they made are of all sizes. Now they are arranged in a row, there is no plane, and they cannot measure distances. The wind measurements, and the iron cannons fired are also large and small, and they are not overweight. If they can hit, they would be damn. And even if an iron cannon landed on the Tiger battleship, there is not much danger. Because there was a soldier on the Tiger deck holding a bucket and waiting for the battle, he would rush forward to water the iron cannon when he saw it falling...
The Mongols' stone-generating aircraft had just projected the iron cannon, and a three-layer oar-mounted battleship following the Tiger on the river was launched again when it was driving huge arrows and threw thunder!
Now Chen Dexing's twenty warships are actually columns against the enemy sideways, just to exert firepower. The Mongols actually used dense infantry formations to fight the fleet using gunpowder weapons. The consequences are conceivable. As five heavenly thunders (one dud) exploded in the crowd, and as four giant arrows penetrated the chests of seven or eight warriors, the Mongolian military formations lined by the river were already a little confused! The casualties and injuries had become a piece, and the sky thunder explosion spots were all sailors lodging on the beach, and blood flowed along the river bank to the river, almost dyeing a large area of red!
As soon as he met, he was beaten like this. Prince Mo also had red eyes, roaring loudly and waving a scimitar to drive his son to move forward, as if he wanted to get closer and closer, and he would not stop until the soldiers in the front row reached the knee water.
Amid his shouts, bows were pulled open again and again, and another dense rain of arrows sprinkled out! In response to them were the thunder and giant arrows launched by another warship! (To be continued)
