Chapter 246: Storming the Water Village
Eleven two-masted sailing ships were running down the Rose River, and Wu Yi held an extremely scribbled chart in his hand, which marked the locations of the five water villages, all of which were far apart from each other. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info pirates and water thieves are in their own hands, and it all depends on the mood after meeting, and there is no hesitation in selling peers.
"This time, let's hit Sanhe Village first!" Wu Yi handed over the sea chart in his hand to Kou Sui beside him, this was the first time that Hulu Village had attacked the water village alone, and he had fought White Shark Island twice before, the first time he pulled two guilds to help, and the second time was a complete sneak attack.
Kou Sui looked at the nautical chart and said: "Village chief, after this war, we should first explore the Rose River, the Rose River has countless tributaries, and there are not a few water thieves, it will take time to find the pirate's nest in the vast East China Sea with such a sea chart, if we go to sea to fight and be attacked by water thieves, it will be troublesome." "Sanhe Village is on the Rose River, as long as the direction is determined, it is easy to find.
For this campaign, the machinery factory has been working hard to produce the most powerful return cannon these days, Huang Yueying has accepted four apprentices, but she will spare part of her time every day to study the magic phase, after all, she is still a free body, Wu Yi is not easy to force, after the return cannon has gathered fifteen sets before starting to produce three crossbows, when going out, the three crossbows are only made up of ten, and the well is still only that sample.
"There is a simple map, when the time comes, hire some chosen ones to help us find it, and we will clean up the Rose River first."
"So much the best!"
This time, Hulu Village dispatched 800 wolf riders, 1,500 longbowmen, 200 water magicians, as well as 10 poisonous spider puppets and 20 demon phases. In order to facilitate the command of water warfare, Wu Yi specially purchased a flag language teaching.
About an hour later, the seven two-masted galleons in front of them were heading towards the East China Sea without stopping, and the four Hulucun ships in the rear turned into the tributary on the right, heading upstream, and each two-masted sailing ship had fifty water magicians, who used water control techniques in navigation, and their speed was not slow even when the current was counter-current.
Finally, there are traces of boats and water villages in front, the location of Sanhe Village is very strange, built on a protruding land, surrounded by water on three sides, only one side will be attacked by land, although it is more convenient to move on the water, but it will also be attacked more from the water.
There are many patrolling boats and fishing boats around the water village, and the water thieves usually fish in the water as a food reserve. As soon as they saw four strange two-masted galleons moving towards them quickly, they immediately fled towards the water village.
The terrain of Sanhezhai is easy to attack and difficult to defend, but it is difficult to annihilate it if there are not enough troops. Wu Yi glanced at it from a distance, the sixteen arrow towers of the water village were all distributed on three sides, there were ten on the front, three on one side of the other two sides, and there were only city walls on the land side, probably in their opinion, even if they were defeated, it would be easier to escape from the water.
"Kou Sui, the ship is under your command, and I will take people ashore to block the exit on the land of Shuizhai." Seeing Sanhe Village, the speed of the fleet slowed down, and Wu Yi did not order to pursue those small boats that escaped, Hulu Village needs population, and the goal this time is to capture the water village and capture more water thieves.
"The village chief can rest assured, with their boat, they will never be able to run away on the water!"
The flagship slowly landed, and Wu Yi took Zhu Rong and four hundred wolf horsemen, plus one hundred longbowmen, and fifty water magicians ashore, and at the same time brought ashore the well. At the same time as Wu Yi went ashore, the gate of the water village opened, and two masted sailing ships rowed out of the water village, and there were a ballista on the strings of the boats, a total of ten.
Wu Yi took five hundred and fifty soldiers to rush to the north city wall with Jing Qi and Zhu Rong, Jing Yan had four wheels, plus Wu Yi's specialty "logistics", it was much more convenient to transport than a trebuchet.
Logistics: +10% march speed, -5% stamina cost for soldiers.
In the blink of an eye, the battle on the surface of the water was already underway.
Boom, boom, boom......
The four ships of Hulu Village were the first to attack, and the range of the return guns was much longer than that of the trebuchets, and the ten two-masted galleons on the opposite side had not yet entered the range of fire, and under the command of Kou Sui, fifteen return guns flew fifteen stone bullets.
Touch......
In a series of crashing sounds, Kou Sui commanded the four ships to slowly retreat, since they had the advantage of range, they naturally had to make good use of it. The fleet of fifteen stone bullets and water village avoided only two rounds, and the remaining thirteen rounds were all hit, and the sawdust flew sideways in an instant. The average two-masted sailing ship has a durability of 25,000 and a defense of only 500, which is suddenly too weak compared to the city walls, not enough to return a few cannon blows.
The water thieves gritted their teeth and pursued, but in the face of the enchanted ship that crushed them in all aspects, although they had an absolute numerical advantage, they couldn't touch the opponent's ship at all. After two more rounds of return attacks, the water thieves really gave up, intending to retract back to the water village as a turtle. But it's easy to come out, but it's hard to go back!
When the water thieves turned the bow of the ship and fled back to the water village, Kou Sui ordered four ships to pursue, just now it was smooth water, now it is against the water, the water thief's two-masted galleon ran faster, and a few stone bullets fell on the top of their heads from time to time, intending to demoralize them.
"Help!"
Pursued all the way, the pirate ship that fell at the back finally sank in a stone bullet, but the water thieves on board did not die much, and hundreds of water thieves jumped into the river before the brig sank. But at this time, how could anyone save them, the longbowmen on the Hulu Village fleet who were caught up died in a rain of arrows, and those who were alive suddenly did not dare to scream anymore, and they did not even dare to surface their heads.
Kou Xie bit the ship in front of him, and finally arrived at the nine two-masted galleons to sink one more when they entered the water village. It can be seen from this short confrontation that water warfare is more brutal than land warfare, as long as there is a slight advantage in armaments, the opponent can fight without the power to fight back, and it cannot catch up with it, and it cannot run away.
The gate of the water village was closed, and the four ships of Hulu Village stood side by side, attacking the city wall at the maximum range of the return cannon.
At this time, Wu Yi and his entourage finally arrived in front of the north gate, and the longbowmen and water magicians all went up to the well and began to be on guard. The Shaft's bonuses are ineffective against mages, but they make them safer.
With the return of the artillery round after round of attacks, the water thieves in the water village are like ants on a hot pot, but they can't think of a solution to the dilemma in front of them, they have seen the speed of the enemy ship just now, and they will definitely be caught up from the gate on both sides. Then you can only break through from behind, the number of enemy troops outside the north gate is not much, as long as you rush out, you can survive, and if you stay in the water village, you will be smashed into ruins all the way.
