Can't the Huben army fight?

Where do you score.

On land, the Huben Army, which has just been established for more than half a year, is indeed no match for the experienced Western Army.

But on the water, hehe.

There are many large ships in the fleet of the Huben Navy. They are tall, stable and powerful.

In order to take advantage of this advantage, Li Chuan ordered craftsmen to make many iron sickles, penny guns, fishing hooks and swallowtail cards commonly used by the navy of the Ming Dynasty long ago.

The three or four thousand Ding Li gun platooners who were captured by Li Cun at the beginning joined the Huben Army after undergoing political education and ideological reform.

After comprehensive consideration, Li Cun believes that, as far as the current situation is concerned, the navy is more important than the army, so he transferred these Dingli gun platooners who are also very good at water warfare to the navy. The Yanwei brand is mainly tailored for them prepare.

Moreover, Li Cun also asked each of the three or four thousand gun platooners to bring five apprentices to teach them the skill of throwing javelins.

——Every time these Dingli gun platoon players teach a qualified javelin player, they will get a huge reward.

Today, each ship of the Huben Navy has a large number of Javelin Soldiers, and these Javelin Soldiers seem to have become one of the main forces of the Huben Navy.

In addition, Li Cun also asked the boatmen to build many five-tooth warships based on the ancient drawings.

These five-tooth warships are equipped with six giant poles, front, rear, left, and right, which are very powerful.

The key point is that the ships of the Huben Navy are equipped with many advanced weapons, such as bed crossbows and fierce oil tanks.

The key point is that many soldiers in the Huben navy were originally the regular navy of the Song Army in the Liangzhe area and the Lianghuai area, and they were originally professional in water warfare.

On the other hand, most of the ships of the Song Army were just transport ships, and many of them were small sampans. There were not many weapons prepared for water warfare on board, and most of the soldiers on board were soldiers of the Western Army who were afraid of water...

……

Oriental fish belly white.

The Huben water army intercepted the Song army fleet trying to forcefully cross the river several times, and the two sides fought fiercely on the river.

Since the two sides fought, Song Jun, who was surrounded by the Huben Army, wanted to break through a gap in the blockade of the Huben Navy regardless of everything.

But no matter which direction the Song army rushed, Li Cun watched the battle with a binoculars and commanded Liang Hongyu standing on the Jinshan Miaogao Platform with a command flag. A thick ship shield that can pass through.

At the same time, Li Cun and Liang Hongyu commanded the Huben water army to separate small fleets like snakes, strangling the Song army's fleet one after another.

In a place farther away, the fleet of the Huben Navy used bed crossbows and crossbows to shoot and kill the soldiers of the Song Army on the Song Army fleet.

At the middle distance, the soldiers of the Huben Navy used javelins to shoot and kill the soldiers of the Song Army on the Song Army fleet.

At a close distance, the officers and men of the Huben Water Army condescendingly hooked the side of the Song Army's ship with a fishing hook (that is, a hook), and pulled it hard, and the Song Army's boat capsized.

The soldiers of the Huben Water Army can also use iron sickles to break the ropes of Song Army ships or kill Song Army soldiers with hooks, or use pole guns to assassinate Song Army soldiers.

The most unlucky thing was to run into a Song Army ship of the Five-tooth Warship. With a slap of the giant pole, the Song Army's ships, no matter how big or small, would be shattered at once, which was very easy to use.

To be honest, I am afraid that using the fierce fire oil tank will harm our own side, or give the Song Army’s ships a chance to die together or even escape the encirclement. Otherwise, if the Huben navy uses the fire artifact fire oil tank, this battle Definitely better.

but--

This is also enough.

The Song army could also use bows and arrows to fight back a little bit, and because the boat was unstable and the soldiers of the Song army who were afraid of the water, the arrow skills that used to be hundreds of shots in the past were all greatly reduced now.

Under the command of Li Cun and Liang Hongyu, the fleet of the Huben navy sails in the wind, and you take a bite, and I take a bite, and they come and go like flying.

As for the Song army, there was no way to fight, and there was no place to escape, so they could only be nibbled away by the tiger and navy army there.

Not long after, not even half of the ships of the Song Army were left, and there were even less than two thousand soldiers of the Song Army still on board.

Under the command of Li Cun and Liang Hongyu, the Huben Army's fleet once again surrounded the Song Army's fleet, and then called for the Song Army to surrender.

Now the situation is very clear. If the Song army does not surrender, it will only be wiped out bit by bit by the Huben army. There is no luck at all.

Wang Yuan glanced at the [-] Song army elites who were close at hand but far away on the north bank of the river, and thought aggrievedly, "If this damn thing was on land, the masters would be able to overthrow the ant thief a hundred times! A hundred times! But this damn thing is on the water!"

Wang Yuan ruthlessly poked his sword on the deck, gritted his teeth and ordered: "Surrender!"

Han Shizhong, who has been performing very well before, is not as big or as many as the Huben Navy, and he doesn't have many weapons to fight back. The key point is that the command of the Huben Navy will not allow them to take advantage of any loopholes, which is also hopeless. .

In the end, Han Shizhong was also captured by the Huben navy along with other survivors without exception.

Then it's easy.

The Huben navy put down the ladder and let the prisoners of the Song army board the boat one by one to be tied up...

At the same time, the Huben Navy began to salvage those soldiers of the Song Army who had not yet drowned and the overturned ships...

Li put down the binoculars and asked Niu Meng, Zhao Han'er and the others: "Do you understand?"

Zhao Han'er hurriedly replied: "I understand."

Other generals also responded one after another, saying that they understood Li Cun's style of play.

Li Cun summed up the essentials for them:

"Any battle with the enemy, whether you set up an army on the bank or use a boat in the water, is a water battle. If you set up an army on the bank, you need to stay away from the river. First, you can lure the enemy to cross the river, and second. Come to dispel the enemy's doubts. If I attack, don't approach the water to meet the enemy, lest the enemy retreat in doubt. If I don't fight, I will garrison close to the river bank, so that the enemy dare not cross the river. If the enemy wants to cross the river to attack me, don't meet him In the water, order Banji to hit it."

"And it's easier to set up an array with a boat in the water. It's nothing more than locking, hitting, bumping, hooking, and shooting. If you fight near the water, you can also use a trebuchet to assist on the shore. In addition, our army keeps secrets such as flying thunder cannons and bombarding the sky." Thunder is also a sharp weapon in water warfare, if the situation is unavoidable, there is no need to keep it..."

In fact, there is really nothing to talk about in water warfare, especially when the Huben navy has the advantage of crushing.

Let's put it this way, if Niu Meng and Zhao Han'er were given a binoculars, given the absolute superiority of the Huben Navy, if they still couldn't stop Song Jun from crossing the river, then they really wouldn't be suitable to be generals.

After Li Cun finished explaining, Niu Meng suddenly said: "Great Governor, there is one thing that I don't know in the end, and I hope the Great Governor will explain it to the general."

Li Cun looked at Niu Meng: "Just ask."

Niu Meng pretended to be calm and asked: "The commander-in-chief can wipe out this army in just a few clicks, why did Zhao Han'er command this battle?"

Li Cun knew that Niu Meng was worried about Niu Wei's death in battle.

This is human nature.

After all, as Niu Meng said, if Li Cun hadn't handed over the command of the first half of the battle to Zhao Han'er, Niu Wei and the soldiers of the Huben army who ambushed the Song army would not have died in battle.

Li Cunyi pointed to the [-] Song troops clearly visible on the other side of the river: "How dare you guarantee that the Song troops will never cross the river?"

Li Cun also said: "If only a few thousand Song troops can cross the river, our army will be defeated. If tens of thousands of Song troops can cross the river, and hundreds of thousands of Song troops can cross the river, if I, Li Cun, are not here in Hangzhou Facing Fang La, how are you going to face the enemy? Will it collapse? Do you want to ruin the land that countless martyrs of our Huben army have earned with their blood and lives?"

Niu Meng understands this truth, but why is it his only brother Niu Wei who died and not someone else?

You know, although Niu Wei is married, he hasn't had any children yet!
And Niu Meng has only three daughters and no children, if one day he also dies in battle, wouldn't the Niu family become extinct? !

Niu Meng couldn't help thinking, how good it would be if there was no such damned uprising, then he could still take Niu Wei and follow Fang Geng's cockfighting and lackeys for a lifetime, knowing the rise and fall of the world...

Considering the death of Niu Meng's only direct brother, Li Cun tried his best to calm down his tone, and then said: "I can't expect the Song army to be weakened. where life is earned."

Having said that, Li Cun patted Niu Meng's shoulder who had lowered his head: "Do you understand?"

"The last general...understood."

It seems that Niu Meng is still very sad!

Thinking of Niu Wei smiling like a child when he officiated the wedding for Niu Wei and He Sanniang, Li Cun felt a little uncomfortable:
"Zeguo Jiangshan enters the battle map, what is the plan for the living and the people to enjoy Qiaosu. With Jun Mo's words to seal the Marquis, one general will be successful. It is rumored that the first battle will be sorrowful, and the strong troops on both sides of the strait will never stop. Who knows that the Cangjiang River will never end Things, recently there has been a bloody struggle..."
