The land south of the Yangtze River was turbulent, but Wang Yan didn't know it.

At this time, he waited for the ship from Luzhou and watched the army board the ship.

In the early morning, the red sun rises in the east, and the light shines on the mountains stretching in the land of Bashu, outlining the golden edges, and the water of the river is sparkling and vast under its illumination.

On the opposite side of the largest ferry port in Chongqing Prefecture, on a small hill, the big flag flutters in the wind, the five-color flag is planted all over the mountain, it is hunting with the wind, the big drum platform is also set up on the top of the mountain, more than ten huge war drums, placed on it looks majestic.

Wang Yan stood on the top of the mountain with his hands in his hands, staring at the surging river, "Bashan is pale and yellow, and 100,000 heroes have crossed the river??"

He looked at the foot of the mountain, by the Yangtze River, countless helmets, red cherry blossoms, and soldiers in armor boarded the boat, got on the bamboo raft, densely packed, in the military camp stretching outside Ba County, countless people gathered on the river beach, the heads of silkworms moved, the spears were dense like a forest, the flag was like a cloud, Wei Wei was magnificent, he couldn't help but have a magnificent feeling in his chest, swallowing like a tiger, at this time he suddenly laughed, "Today after the Yangtze River, it is the time when this pavilion swept Sichuan and Shu." ”

At this time, the banner on the watchtower next to him shouted: "Xianggong, General Wu is raising the flag, and the loyal and righteous army is ready." ”

Naturally, 50,000 horses could not cross the river in one swollen manner, the ferry port was only so wide, and the river beach was so large that it had to be crossed in batches.

When Wang Yan heard this, his expression was solemn for a while, he waved his hand, and the war drums beat, "Order Wu Risheng to cross the river." ”

The Ming army was blatantly trying to force the crossing from Dadukou, so the Qing army had already discovered the movement and was ready to attack, but Li Guoying and Wang Zuntan were not very worried.

First of all, the Ming army did not have many ships, only thirty, and there were no warships, and the number of people who crossed the river at one time was at most 1,000, and there was not much threat to the shore defense, and those rafts were not to mention.

Before, more than 1,000 people of the Ming army crossed the river in Wangjiatuo, but the raft was washed away before it reached the center of the river.

At this time, there was a rush of alarm bells at Dadukou, 'Dang! While! While! The bell sounded frightened and hurried, this is the Qing army lookout, discovered the military situation.

Because of the relationship between the current, the embarkation point of the Ming army was located diagonally opposite the upstream of the Qing army, not on the opposite side of the Dadu port.

On the river, thirty boats were full of Ming soldiers, looking down from the sky, all of them were squeezed together with red cherry blossoms, and a small cannon was placed in the bow of the ship.

The boats collected by the Ming army from Luzhou are all small boats, sailing undulating on the river, like a piece of leaves floating in the torrent, the water surface is very rapid, very bumpy, the Ming soldiers in the cabin hold swords, and their faces are solemn.

At this time, the sails of the ship were puffed up, and by the southwest wind, the slanted spur was heading towards the north bank of the Yangtze River, and the bow of the ship pointed directly to the river beach in front of the Dadu port.

Behind the boat, more than 100 large bamboo rafts, each with 20 soldiers on board, lined up behind the boat, led by Wu Risheng, the deputy commander of the Loyal and Righteous Army, they rode the wind and waves, and rushed to Dadukou by the momentum of the water.

On the north bank, the Qing army built an earthen wall on the river beach, which was occupied with soldiers, and also built a fort on the mountainside, and as the ships rushed through the middle of the river, the Qing army opened fire first.

The roaring cannon sounded, and one after another iron bullets smashed into the river, splashing up a column of water more than a foot high, and the river water was splashed into the sky and fell again, instantly drenching the armor of the non-commissioned officers on the ship.

The cannon roared, and the small Franc machine placed in the bow of the Ming army also began to return fire, and the iron bullets flew wildly, smashing the ships out of many holes, and the shells tore the sails, but the damage to the ships was not huge.

The Qing army did not have Hongyi artillery, although the two sides fired fiercely, but it was not very tragic, the shells of the Qing army mostly fell into the river, splashing the water column, the Ming ships were very bumpy, and the shells were even more inaccurate.

The boat had sails, and by the potential of the water, the speed was much faster than that of the raft, so the raft was left behind and passed the center of the river early.

Li Guoying sneered and waved his hand: "On the rocket!" ”

A thousand archers, coming out of the earthen wall, stood by the river and bent their bows and arrows, lit them on the torches, and shot a thousand rockets with a roar, and the arrows hit the sails, which immediately set the sails on fire, and suddenly black smoke billowed out, and the arrows were nailed to the hull, and the whole ship slowly burned.

I have to say that against ships, the effect of solid bullets is really not as good as fire attack.

Seeing this, Li Guoying and Wang Zuntan felt that the big thing was decided, and as for those rafts, it was estimated that they would soon perform the scene they were looking forward to.

"Look, general, the raft has crossed the heart of the river!" At this time, the Qing soldiers who were observing suddenly exclaimed.

Li Guoying and Wang Zuntan listened, looked at the river, and sure enough, they saw a hundred rafts, like a water snake, actually crossed the center of the river and continued to rush to the shore. The two of them, a Liaodong person and a Shandong person, don't know water, let alone understand the water pattern of the Yangtze River, they can't figure it out, they are all rafts, why they didn't go to the center of the river before, they were washed away by the current, but this time they lined up and killed the shore.

At this time, the ship had already rushed to the shore, and Wu Yishan, the general of Taihu Lake, immediately raised his sword, picked up his shield, and roared: "Brothers, kill!" ”

Nearly a thousand Ming troops jumped from the boat, jumped into the water, waded waist-high river, and trekked to the shore with shields.

Wang Zuntan was a civilian official, although he was the governor but the battle was mainly commanded by Li Guoying, he glanced at the current situation and knew that the Ming army must not be allowed to gain a firm foothold in the stall.

"Lord Futai, I will lead 2,000 people to drive them into the river, Lord Futai commands the archers and gunners, and must not let the Ming troops on the raft land."

On the three-mile-long river beach, the Ming army jumped from the boat, shouting and killing to wade ashore, but it collided with two thousand Qing soldiers head-on, fighting together in an instant, swords and guns struck, and flesh and blood flew over.

At this time, the raft had reached the place where the water was reversed, and the people on the raft immediately used long poles to resist, and several long poles alternately supported the raft and rushed to the north bank.

Wang Zuntan led 4,000 Qing troops to the landing place, and saw more than a dozen large rafts landing, and groups of Ming soldiers running down from the rafts.

These rafts have a shallow draft, so they can be washed directly to the shore, which is better than the stranded boats, and the soldiers can go directly to the shore without wading.

"Bow and arrow ready!" Wang Zuntan shouted, and the three thousand Qing archers immediately opened their bows and arrows and aimed them at the Ming soldiers.

"Shoot!"

At the sound of an order, the arrows were fired intensively at the raft, and the hundreds of soldiers who had just landed on the shore were caught off guard, and most of the arrows and lead bullets that were shot from the sky were put down, and the remaining hundred or so soldiers immediately used their shields to resist and form a shield wall.

Wang Zuntan saw that he had seized the opportunity, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted: "Bow and arrow to suppress the enemy army, and the enemy army is not allowed to land!" The pikemen drove down the enemy troops who had landed on the shore. ”
