Chapter 222 Gorgeous like fireworks

A big battle began immediately.

The siege in a rapid charge and the Daxiezhai army on the boat began to fight back with crossbows. The soldiers even controlled the bamboo crossbow and the Fuyuan crossbow to shoot at the basin at the dock. However, the distance was too far, and the basin was six meters high, so their arrows were difficult to shoot. The defenders at the dock strictly guarded the orders, and only about 30% of the soldiers were shooting arrows, deliberately causing false signs of weak defense power in the defenders, luring the enemy to get closer.

Li Guan stood tall on the bastion watching the battle. Although Feng Zhang was arrogant, he still had a very organized battle. Although the entire army attacked, the order was actually clear. The one who rushed to the front was the marshal assault ship with the strongest fire resistance and the fastest speed. If the tower ship was equivalent to an aircraft carrier, the fighting ship was a battleship, and the sea falcon was a cruiser, the boat should be a frigate, and the marshal was a frigate, and the marshal was a destroyer.

The warships in Daxiezhai attacked the fastest, and the eighteen warships rushed to the front in almost the shape of a font. Each warship carried a hundred people, of which half of the slurry and half of the sailors. Li Guan calculated roughly that although there were few soldiers on the warships, the eighteen ships could charge together, and there were still nine hundred soldiers. As far as Li Guan knew, this tactic was a common tactic used by the sailors in the official army. When dealing with pirates, first use the warship assault ship to catch up with the enemy and entangle the enemy, and then wait for the subsequent fighting ships, and the pirates were killed to siege.

Now Feng Zhang is also using this idea, taking the fire-proof and fastest craft as a pioneer. He not only wants to seize the dock at the speed, but also let the craft ships test the strength of the dock guards. Once Li Guan uses the legendary divine fire, he will immediately judge the situation. If it really doesn't work, he can also let the craft retreat at the high speed. Before he truly explores the situation of the dock, he will not rashly put the fighting ships and tower ships carrying a large number of troops on it.

The marshal attacks, covers the boats, and supports the sea falcons. Once the raid is successful, Feng Zhang will quickly dock with the tower ship and the fighting ship, escorting a large number of sailors to land. This is actually a standard way to seize the island and fight. At least in the previous battles to eliminate pirates, Feng Zhang relied on this set of tactics to wipe out many pirates. He lamented the pirates near the Daxie Islands.

Seeing that under the defensive release of the water, the eighteen ships rushed to the dock with arrow rain. At such a close distance, he could even clearly see that the thick cattle covered on the ship rushed directly to the warship on the dock shore and quickly lowered the bridge boards. The soldiers who were already ready to go quickly held their shields and carried their swords and shouted loudly. These soldiers were very experienced. At the orders of several officers with mountain patterns, they rushed to the dock and did not continue to rush forward. Instead, they quickly gathered on the spot and formed a shield array to cover more soldiers behind them to get ashore.

The docked warship did not leave, but stopped on the shore and quickly acted as long-range strike support. The sailors came out of the slurry room and quickly acted as crossbow gunners, set up heavy crossbows and shooters. They began to load and fire, serving as fire cover for the soldiers who were on the shore.

From charge to beach landing, and remote support, the entire action is smooth and smooth.

With the support of crossbow arrows and gunfire behind, the nine hundred soldiers who came ashore suddenly dispersed the entire shield formation again. They were divided into countless small fish scale formations, with a group of ten people as a small team, scattering and attacking forward.

Seeing these soldiers approaching the first sharp wooden stake defense line, Li Guan gently patted the wall on the top of the basin and said calmly: "Tell me the order, the crossbowman in the left wing can shoot arrows."

Lin Wei, deputy general of the left wing of the battle camp, saw the flag order issued by Li Guan on the castle and immediately ordered: "Boardman, shoot arrows freely."

The left wing's Five Du team had nearly 300 crossbowmen, a group of ten teams, immediately started shooting at the dock from thirty arrow towers. Each arrow tower was ten, two people in a group, and each time they shot a target. After more than a month of hard training, the archery skills of these three hundred crossbowmen have made great progress. Standing on the three-meter-high arrow tower, shooting from a high point, further increasing the power of the archer.

"Swish swish swish!"

Three hundred archers opened their bows and shot arrows at the same time, and the arrows suddenly fell like rain, and a metal layer enveloped the dock.

The rain of arrows enveloped the enemy and fell into the enemy in an instant. Although the Da Xie army on the dock was ready, he quickly raised his shield to block it, but more than ten people were still injured and fell to the ground in the rain of arrows. The undead wounded soldiers lay on the ground and screamed in pain.

"Good shooting!" Lin Wei clapped his hands in front of the formation and shouted, "Continue shooting!" Although Li Guan did not allow the defenders to take full advantage, even so, Lin Wei did not intend to make the enemy feel better. The fight was too weak, and it would be bad if Feng Zhang saw it.

"Shock crossbows shooting, jumping soldiers equipped!" Lin Wei roared. When the crossbowmen on the arrow tower opened the string again, the surprise troops behind the wooden fence under the tower began to shoot crossbows in a straight line, and shot more than a dozen enemy troops who landed on the shore. The soldiers of Da Xie Fort were all wearing leather armor, and the officers were also equipped with the most anti-arrow mountain armor, which reduced the attack effect of the crossbows a lot.

The three types of archers, surprise soldiers and jumpers took turns to shoot, one shot, one prepared, and one loaded, forming an almost uninterrupted arrow formation. The people from the Modao Team and the Cavalry Team did not participate in the shooting, and they all stood behind the wooden fence to accumulate strength.

Da Xie soldiers fell one by one, but the losses were still within their tolerance. They continued to advance, rushed to the first picket pile, and began to cut the picket piles and drive the passageway.

Seeing the first batch of soldiers successfully boarding the dock, the second batch of boats and yachts on the sea were already approaching the dock, while the sea falcon ships were cruising on the sea outside the dock, as if they were guarding against the appearance of warships from Shamen Town.

The second batch of people who came ashore were fewer, only about five hundred.

Looking at Da Xie Bing who was getting closer and closer, Li Guan waved his hand, "Fuyuan Crossbows to fight." The messenger waved the command flag, and immediately the itchy crossbowmen who had been waiting on the nine bastions immediately launched at the target that had been aimed at. This time, only one-third of the Fuyuan Crossbows on the nine bastions were used. Twelve heavy crossbows entered the enemy army with a sharp roar, and in an instant, several shields were broken and four or five enemy troops were nailed to death on the dock.

The Fuyuan crossbow on the basin kept firing, fifteen crossbow arrows could be fired every quarter of an hour. Such heavy crossbows kept plowing through the area on the dock that had already been marked by the range, taking away one after another of the lives of Da Xie soldiers. The Shamen Town soldiers behind him kept applauding, while Feng Zhang, who was watching the battle on the boat in the back, said lightly: "It's so good, the little thief has a poor skill. The command is to land the whole army." He has been watching for so long, and he has seen that although there are nine fortresses, thirty arrow towers, two morgues and two wooden fences on the shore, he saw that the counterattack strength on the dock was obviously insufficient. The crossbow soldiers were only a thousand, and the heavy crossbows were only a dozen, and even fewer shots. Although Li Guan might have hidden some of his strength for the time being, even if it doubled, he was not afraid and worried.

If Li Yan had only this strength, he would not be afraid of it.

With the order of Feng Zhang, the three tower ships and eight bucket ships that had been swimming thousands of steps away from the dock finally rushed towards the dock in the rumbling war drums. The eleven war ships were loaded with eight thousand Feng Zhang's most elite troops. Under the cover of the sea falcon ship, they rushed straight towards the dock with sails.

"It's getting closer, and Feng Zhang has finally taken the bait!" Wang Chong, the ten generals of the auxiliary barracks next to Li Guan, was flushed with excitement. "General, throw away the divine fire and burn his grandmother, one Buddha ascends to heaven, and two Buddhas are born."

"Wait a little longer, and throw the divine fire when the ship approaches the dock." When the opponent's soldiers disembarked, it was the time when the enemy landed. Each ship carried nearly a thousand soldiers, and the fighting ship also carried five or six hundred people. It was impossible to get off the ship in an instant. It would be best to take advantage of the chaos of the soldier's disembarkation.

Behind the second wooden fence behind the moat under the basin, the officers of each capital and team shouted in a deep voice, "Stay calm, hold on, wait for the orders of the generals of the marquis to attack."

Seeing that the group of Da Xie soldiers who were on the shore had already broken through the first sharp wooden stake formation and rushed to the front of the first gutter. The Modao team, which was behind the first wooden quad, was only a short distance away from the Modao team in the battle camp, was holding the Modao team that was ten feet long and weighing fifteen pounds in full. All the Modao soldiers were wearing even the faces, leaving only a few small holes with full coverage like iron helmets, and were wearing two large and two major parts of the front and back. Inside the armor, there was also a rope armor, and there was also a silk armor woven with gold on the outside. If it weren't for the fact that the Modao soldiers were too high, Li Guan had even thought of letting these Modao soldiers wear another leather armor outside.

There are a large amount of iron armor and leather armor in stock in the warehouse, with a total of three to four thousand sets of sets. Now soldiers on the island have a set of armor, and Rumo Jianshe has two sets of them. Even the auxiliary barracks, which originally had no armor but only war robes, made an exception to have a set of leather armor.

Wearing double-layer armor and full-coverage helmets, these Modao hands now have strong attack power, but also have quite abnormal defense capabilities. Arranging them at the forefront reflects their role.

As Da Xie Bing got closer and closer, looking through the wooden fence, dense heads filled the entire front. Although this was not the first battle of many Shamen soldiers, many people still looked pale, their hearts were beating and their breathing was rapid.

The ants-like Da Xie soldiers in the front cut off the first spear and filled the first ditch. When they finally rushed to the front of the first wooden fence, suddenly, before the Mo Daomen were about to swing their swords to stop the enemy soldiers from coming, countless howling sounds suddenly sounded in the sky. Some Mo Daomen couldn't help but look up at the sky when they heard the sound. Suddenly, countless burning black pots with long orange-red tail flames were flying all over the sky, just like a group of flying black crows pecking at the dense enemy group on the dock.
