Volume 3 Jiangnan Dang Chapter 267 [Ambush]
Just as he was stunned, he saw that at the same time as the cannon sounded, these little river shuttles suddenly made a group of two and two, and both raised their small black sails, and rushed straight down the river to the sailors' ship formation, and almost less than a mile of waterway, they set fire to the cabin.
At the same time, the sailors also noticed a change in the direction of their backs, and many soldiers turned around to the sound of drums and trumpets, and controlled the ship's batters, bed crossbows, and even catapults to aim at these small river shuttles. However, these small river shuttles that were in a group of two bows themselves borrowed from the water potential, coupled with the fact that they were raising sails and raising fire, and the speed of the impact suddenly became extremely fast, and the one-mile waterway seemed to be very far, but it also came in the blink of an eye within a dozen breaths, and plunged into the sailor's ship formation.
I saw that several bows that had no time to dodge were directly pierced into the belly of the ship by these Jiang Suo, and some sailors who deliberately tried to block Jiang Suo were also cut off by Shengsheng, and everyone immediately looked at each other, all came to see the flowers, he also looked carefully, and said: "The thief ship should be equipped with an iron cone in the bow." ”
However, just this collision is not over, it is only a dozen breaths of time, but I saw a lot of bumped hull suddenly burst into flames, and even splashed the sky with a rain of fire, this time there is no need for Hua Rong to explain, Tong Guan and his staff members all exclaimed in unison: "Fierce fire oil!" ”
At this time, it was nearly noon, but the sky was dark and cloudy, and the fire rain that exploded fell on the water surface of the middle of the river and did not extinguish it, but burned and rose with the waves like a flowing fire. I actually broke a wooden stick that was almost the thickness of an adult's arm.
Liu Qi looked at Huang Jie thoughtfully, and Huang Jie could see what he wanted to say just from his eyes. Hurriedly shook his head with him: That night when the Japanese army was blocked the mouth of the gourd, there was also a fierce fire oil in the Black Tiger Camp of the Broken Stone Army If Han Jinbao did not report it to Tong Guan to know. Speaking out at this point will only ruin a big deal.
Liu Qi endured his mouth, but Hua Rong kept talking about it, broadcasting the battle situation in real time, and listening to the words in his mouth were like arrows, and every sentence was cone: the fifth bow on the left was led...... The soldier is jumping into the river...... Not good, the second bow on the right deviated from the bow of the boat and crashed into the building boat in the penultimate row...... The third-to-last row of boats flying the female bird flag is on fire!
With Hua Rong's announcement, even if everyone didn't look carefully, they saw that the sailor's ship formation anchored in the center of the river was now a mess. The fireboats that rushed down upstream were still in groups of two, constantly looking for gaps and rushing into the ship formation, and the flames that burst from time to time set the whole river on fire with a rain of fire, although many of them were overturned by the slapsticks, hit by the catapults, and shot through by the bed crossbows, but they couldn't stand these small river shuttles borrowed the water momentum and the wind continued to fall like sharp arrows.
For a while, there was only Hua Rong's voice on the car building, even Huang Jie himself was shocked by such a tragic water battle scene, although he had seen a scene that was even bigger than this scene in the strange dream, but now the living scene in front of him was more shocking than the strange dream.
It was also when everyone was stunned. But when he heard a sudden commotion downstairs, everyone was shocked back to their senses, and naturally someone around Tong Guan raised his voice to ask what was the matter, so he replied below: "Captain Yu." This person claimed to be the head of the Huangzhou Transfer Yamen, and said that he had something important to report. ”
Huang Jie hurriedly stretched out his head to look, but saw that Sun Li was stopped by several guards. Hurriedly said: "Sun Jiaotou, what is the matter?" ”
Sun Li hurriedly replied: "Deputy Huang is the transfer envoy." I can see that there is something abnormal underground, so please take precautions as soon as possible! ”
Tong Guan heard it naturally on the sidelines. But he also wondered, so he said: "Is there any movement underground?" Let this man come up and speak! ”
Immediately asked Sun Li to go up to the car building, Sun Li hurriedly said: "Captain Yu, I just felt a slight movement on the ground, so I buried the quiver to investigate with the technique of listening to the ground, but I am afraid that there is a hidden mechanism in the ground near this high slope, or there are thieves ambushing soldiers hiding in the tunnel." ”
When Tong Guan got the news, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, so he asked the 1,000 cavalry troops next to the high slope to set up a formation. Together with the drums and trumpets, the five hundred cavalry dismounted and lined up to surround the carriage building on all sides, and the armored war horses bowed down to make a shield wall, and the other five hundred cavalry were divided into two teams, one left and one right on both sides of the high slope, and the swords and guns were unsheathed and ready to fight.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a boom, and I saw the back of Gao Po, less than three hundred steps away in the direction of Anqing City, suddenly sinking, and in the blink of an eye, I saw that a piece of ground with a radius of more than 20 zhang quickly sank, forming a huge circular hollow. Before the dust from the ground had dispersed, he heard hundreds of roars coming straight into the sky from the cave, and then he saw countless warriors in black clothes and black pants who looked like ants coming out of their nests jumped out of the hole, shouted and raised their swords and axes to kill the high slope.
Tong Guan looked at it, but he didn't laugh back, and stroked his palms and said, "Okay!" Good! Good! is a good Wang Qing, he has such a means, even if the old man will choose this place to watch the battle, then Huang Gui, who knows the army of Wuwei, is not unjustly defeated! Order: Raise the flag, all armies fight! Herald: Let go of the thieves in this battle, and all of them will be promoted to a turn of war exploits! Order: Huangzhou transferred the head of the Yamen sect, Sun, and counted three transfers to a first-class combat exploit! ”
As soon as this Tong Guan military order came out, he recorded and conveyed it in person, especially in the end, he actually recorded a first-class battle exploit for Sun Li, which also surprised Huang Jie, he didn't expect him to be so rewarded and punished.
However, this is not the time to think about such problems, but it is said that three hundred steps is not far away, and when Tong Guan issued the military order, the five hundred cavalry on the left and right of the high slope had already turned around, and the dismounted cavalry surrounding the carriage building also quickly moved to the back to the formation.
When the black-armored soldiers rushed to about 180 steps in front of the formation, the officers and soldiers in the formation shouted the order to release arrows, which was a Japanese soldier who was equipped with a standard eight-bucket riding bow, and also made three rounds of salvos after listening to the order, but the black-armored soldiers were all elite, the shield holding the shield in the front row did not reduce the speed, and the shieldless ones in the back row also used the weapons in their hands to provoke, and the vast majority of them could continue to run wildly unscathed, and the rain of three arrows actually shot down twenty or thirty people.
On the upstairs of the car, Tong Guan saw that his eyes were also shining, and he said left and right: "I didn't expect Wang Qing to train soldiers, and this black-armored soldier will not be hindered by the arrow array, I am afraid that there will be such an elite in the army!" ”
As he spoke, the black-armored soldiers approached, and after Hua Rong quickly counted, he said: "The thieves are divided into three splashes, about 200 with shields, and more than 150 with long and short soldiers, with a total of about 500 people. ”
"Drink! Kill the thief! Kill the thief! Kill the thief! ”
While speaking, 500 Japanese foot soldiers also abandoned their bows and arrows in the shouting and cheering, 200 people all held cavalry small shields and formed an inverted V-shaped swallow-shaped shield array, and the other 100 took cavalry spears and long weapons and stood behind the shield array to get ready, and the remaining 200 all drew out short soldiers to protect the chariot building and waited for it.
As for the five hundred cavalry, they spread out on both flanks, and after the Black Armor Army engaged the main formation, they outflanked and cut off their rear route.
After I don't know if it was fifteen or twenty breaths, the shield-wielding black-armored soldier who ran out first suddenly walked in front of the official army, and more than a hundred black-armored soldiers with swords and axes jumped out from behind the shield-wielding soldiers, shouting wildly and rushing into the official army's shield array.
Tong Guan stared at the black-armored soldiers who pounced fiercely, and actually said with a sigh in his mouth, stroking his beard and saying yes. Huang Jie couldn't understand it, so he looked at Sun Li beside him, and Sun Li also lowered his voice and said: "These people who rush to break the formation are jumping, that is, sharp pawns." ”
Huang Jie was just about to say yes when he heard the crackling sound of the two armies crackling in front of the formation, and a bloody killing began! (To be continued.) )
