In the past I heard about Dongting Water, now I go to Yueyang Tower.
To the southeast of Wu and Chu, the universe floats day and night.
There are no relatives or friends, and there are no old and sick people.
Rongmaguan passed through the north of the mountain, and Pingxuan Tisiliu flowed.
——"Climbing Yueyang Tower" Du Fu
…
The Tang Dynasty Navy rushed into the enemy's position in three groups, divided the Fusang Navy into several areas, and hunted and strangled them one by one.
Two heavy warships of the Fuso Navy suddenly broke out from the enemy's formation, detouring from the left and right wings, trying to surround Bai Fu's handsome ship.
Bai Fu's flagship was a large battleship named "Five Teeth".
This kind of five-toothed ship is built with five floors of tall buildings, more than a hundred feet high, with female walls, battle grids, flags, spear holes for crossbows, and stone and iron walls for throwing carts, which looks like a city fortress. The sides of the ship are hung with soaked water.
A rope net of mud keeps the enemy at bay.
This battleship has a large tonnage, deep draft, and stable sailing. It can carry more than 800 sailors. During water battles, the tall buildings can not only look out, but also shoot arrows from above.
This battleship also has the racquet stick, the magic weapon of the Tang Dynasty Navy. There are six racquet sticks in the front, rear, left and right, which shows its strong combat power.
Most of the sailors on the two Fuso heavy warships had been killed by the Tang army's crossbows. The Fuso general was naked to the waist, brandishing his sword and roaring, and ordered the pawns hiding in the cabin to turn the ship around and crash into Bai Fu's flagship at all costs.
Attempt to launch a suicide attack.
When they were approaching Bai Fu's flagship, General Fuso ordered his men to light the tinder on the deck. If Bai Fu's flagship could not be sunk, he would burn the ship with fire.
Bai Fu understood General Fusang's intention. He waved his flag and shouted: "Get ready to beat the stick!"
When the sailors heard this, they were in high spirits. Six huge racket poles like Optimus Prime were ready!
Unlike Jianghuai Navy, the racket pole on Baifu's flagship is not tied to an ordinary boulder, but a hammer made of pig iron!
There is an eight-edged iron hammer on the left and right sides of the ship, and two mace hammers on the bow and stern. Once used, the power is extraordinary.
When the Fuso warship entered the firing range, the hanging battle flag signaled, and the four mace hammers on the bow and stern opened fire at the same time.
The sailors pulled the trigger, and the long pole with the mace hammer fell down, whistling, and smashed into the enemy ship.
The Fuso sailors felt four huge mace hammers falling from the sky. It was like an enraged giant spirit leaping down from the clouds, swinging the Thor's Hammer and slamming it into their own warship.
The wolf-toothed iron hammer used the power of ten thousand Ren to hit the Fuso warship with thunderous force, smashing the Fuso warship into powder with one hammer.
The fuso sailors who were shouting on the deck were instantly smashed into pulp. Before they could even shout, they and the ship sank into the deep sea.
The remaining four Wuya warships of the Tang army opened fire at the same time, sinking the Fuso warships one by one, which resisted stubbornly and attempted to use fire attack tactics.
Seeing that the Fusang Navy was no longer able to shake the might of the Tang army, Bai Fuling waved his flag and issued another order.
On the mainmast of the flagship, the command flag sounded a semaphore signal. Alberts led the Dashi and Persian fleets, followed the main ships of the Tang Army, and broke into the battle formation of the Fuso Navy.
Many of the sailors in Dashi and Persia were pirates, and their tactics were completely different from those of the regular army of the Tang Dynasty.
Bai Futiao and others joined the battle to use pirates' ability to plunder merchant ships to preserve as much of the Fuso Navy's warships and goods as possible.
The main warship of the Great Food Sailor is the merchant ship 'Shizibo' modified from the Lion Kingdom. The merchant ship of the Lion Kingdom is 18 feet long and can carry six to seven hundred people. The merchant ship also tows a lifeboat at the stern and is equipped with
homing pigeon.
This kind of sea ship is tall and sturdy, with several masts and can hold up several huge sails. When the wind is favorable, the ship can travel hundreds of miles a day.
Dashi's sailors used several huge sails and the wind to get close to the large warship of the Fuso Navy in an instant.
When the two ships were parallel, the sailors threw dozens of hooks and locks like flying tigers, and then pulled them hard to make the hulls of the two ships stick together.
Captain Dashi wore a black eyepatch on one eye, making him look particularly stern. When he gave an order, the sailors whistled, picked up their scimitars, swung the cables, jumped into the Fuso warship, and chopped down everyone on the deck.
.
Most of the Fuso sailors were killed by the Tang army's crossbows. They were outnumbered and had no choice but to fight.
On the bumpy sea ship, the sailor was walking on flat ground, using cables from time to time to move and dodge on the mast, ship's side and deck, giving full play to the characteristics of the Persian scimitar.
The two sailors were fighting fiercely, and the big sailor suddenly pulled the cable and flew out of the side of the ship. Then he turned sideways and made a big bend on the sea. In an instant, he swung back from behind his opponent.
With such force, the scimitar slashed at the opponent with unrivaled force.
The Fuso Sailors had never encountered such an opponent before, and their Japanese sword slashing, horizontal slashing, and direct thrusts were almost useless. After a few rounds, the Fuso Sailors were killed in a panic, leaving behind their helmets and armor, and were in a state of embarrassment.
…
Bai Fu saw it clearly on the flagship and commented with the surrounding generals from time to time. He hoped that the Tang Navy's navy could also imitate such individual combat skills. Let the Tang Navy's combat moves have more characteristics of water warfare. The Tang Navy's navy should be more professional.
It is not a simple mode, where you land as an infantry and cavalry, and when you board a ship, you become a sailor.
…
Just like the "Zou Ge" (sea loach) of the Tang Dynasty navy, there was also a light cavalry in the Persian warships.
Persian sailors are all good at sailing, and the "Persian ships" they drive are dhows built in the Persian Gulf.
This kind of boat is small in size, equipped with a triangular sail, and has a light hull. The dhow is made of raw wooden boards connected side to side. The wooden boards are not nailed together with nails, but are made of coconut skin shells.
The fibers are sewn together, and then coated with whale oil, or a layer of Tang olive resin that can solidify like black paint can prevent the hull from leaking.
The "Persian ships" adopted a wolf pack tactic. Several "Persian ships" locked up a Fuso warship and hunted it.
The Persian sailors relied on their wind-like speed to shuttle back and forth near the Fuso warship, constantly shooting arrows and throwing short spears, killing the Fuso sailors one by one.
When all the Fuso sailors were dead and wounded, several "Persian ships" rushed up and hijacked the Fuso warship. The Persian sailors jumped onto the deck with their scimitars and slaughtered all the remaining Fuso sailors, leaving no one alive.
Seeing the naval battle descending into a one-sided massacre, two inconspicuous water lines slowly approached Bai Fu's ship.
A shark-shooting crossbow quietly poked its head out from the sea and aimed at the side of Bai Fu's face.
"Card"
The assassin pulled the trigger of the crossbow, and an iron arrow shot as fast as lightning, under the cover of the killing cry, towards the back of Bai Fu's head.
Bai Fu's ears trembled slightly, and he immediately caught the sound of the arrow missing from the chamber, and immediately sketched the trajectory of the arrow flying through the air in his mind.
Bai Fu was about to turn around to block, when he suddenly felt alarmed: the crossbow arrows were just interference, and the real murderous intention came from the back of the head.
Bai Fu shifted his body and position, only to see a poisonous needle as thin as a hair, attacking silently.
Bai Fu used his magical power to flick his fingertips with his right hand, and a strong gust of wind hit the middle part of the poisonous needle, sending it flying into the sea.
Bai Fu struck out with his left palm at the same time, chopped off the crossbow arrow with one palm, and nailed it to the deck. The shark-shooting crossbow sank with great force, and after it was nailed into the deck, its momentum remained unabated, and the arrow tail was still trembling.
Before everyone could recover, two figures jumped out of the sea like flying fish, kicked off the side of the boat, and headed straight towards Bai Fu.
