Chapter 764: Battle between Champa

When a Nanyang Navy sentry appeared in the Chameng waters, the entire Chameng immediately became boiling.

The Song army finally arrived, and the target was indeed Chameng. Although the fleet could not be seen, their pioneers had already arrived here, revealing their ferocious fangs.

In fact, long before the Song army arrived, General Li Richao of Chameng had already taken measures to deal with it. First, he ordered people to sank dozens of large ships and block the port. In addition, the 10,000 Vietnamese troops were divided into two teams, guarding day and night, and stocking up a large number of arrows and other objects. Once the port was lost, they immediately retreated to the city and resisted stubbornly.

In addition, there is a fleet lurking dozens of nautical miles away from here, ready to wait at any time. Once the Nanyang Navy attacks Cham City, it will immediately attack the Song army from both sides.

These measures are not very clever, but to achieve this point, Li Richao thought in his mind that Champa could hold on to at least ten days and half a month, and this time was enough for Shenglong Mansion to make full preparations. What's more, the Song army came from afar, and the food and grass may not be sufficient. Once the Song army has shortage of food and grass, the crisis of the Great Yue Kingdom will be alleviated.

When the sentries at the port came to report, Li Richao suddenly stood up and hurriedly led his people to the port. At this time, the Nanyang Navy gradually approached.

On the sea level, black dots appeared one by one, and even the sky became hazy. Under the raging waves, the towering bow appeared in Li Richao's eyes, riding the wind and waves, and the entire sea became restless.

One...two...it seems like there is no end to see.

"This is the Nanyang Navy!" Li Richao took a breath. He had imagined many scenes of Nanyang Navy appearing in Chameng many times, but until today, he realized how ridiculous his previous imagination was. The dense ships and the bulging sails covered the clouds and sun. When people saw it, they suddenly felt insignificant.

The Vietnamese army at the port also showed fear in their eyes. Looking up at the bow of the ship near the bay, a building that was ten feet high, a group of Song troops appeared under the building. The eyes of the Vietnamese army could not see, but anyone could imagine that the other party should have indifference and contempt in their eyes.

Li Ri rolled towards the Adam's apple, and finally attracted several generals, saying, "No need to go out to fight, you can huddle in the port to guard it, raise wolf smoke, and inform the big cannibals to rush for help."

Li Richao's hand couldn't help but tremble, and he pulled out the knife from his waist with trembling, and shouted: "The Song people are weak, don't be scared by them, guard Champa!"

This sentence seemed to be a child clenching his fists and saying to a big man coming towards him: "You can't scare me!"

The navy's flagship was surrounded by the back team, with clouds floating in the sky and rushing waves under his feet. Shen Ao's handsome flag was raised on the deck. Shen Ao sat on the chair on the deck, slapped a white fan, and his eyes passed the countless ships in front of him and landed in the direction of the coast.

"The weather is so hot." Shen Ao muttered, and then continued: "In such weather, there is nothing to do except killing chickens and dogs."

The captain behind him couldn't hold his breath, and Shen Ao sighed and said, "Where do you have to see the coffin before you regret it. Send the order and ask the people of Yue to enter the coffin."

A lieutenant behind him touched his head and said in confusion: "What is the mystery of entering the coffin?"

Chen Aobai slapped her white fan and shrugged her shoulders slightly, indicating that the pressure was a bit too high, so she sighed and said, "Attack!"

Flagships began to be played on the flagship, and the ships also made whimpering sounds of horns. Hundreds of blessed ships left the formation and swam towards the bay.

The Vietnamese troops on the shore were also confused at this time. They had already sunk the ships and blocked the waterway. Wouldn't such a big ship beg for death when sailing into the bay?

Soon, hundreds of giant ships told the Vietnamese army the answer. The condescending Song army then heard a huge roar. The giant ships in the South China Sea spit out flames, countless crossbows and artillery bombarded the port for a while.

You know, in fact, this giant ship is quite far away from that port, which is 500 feet long. Whether it is a crossbow or a cannon, the effective range of the artillery is far from reaching. However, it is condescending, and the Nanyang Fleet does not consider the word effective range at all, and just vents it blindly. Although most of the giant arrows of the crossbow and the iron eggs of the cannon fall into the sea, some of them often fall into the military port.

The military port was originally made of wooden structures, not solid. Such overwhelming cannons fired in unison, and dozens of Vietnamese soldiers who were approaching were immediately smashed into the city and shouted in a row.

Especially the shocking sound of the cannon, the Vietnamese army at the General Port was so scared that they looked like earth. Not to mention them, even Li Richao saw the power of the cannon for the first time. He thought it was a thunder bomb in the sky, but when he found smoke filled his eyes, he knew what was going on.

The power of artillery is not just a huge killing, and there is no lethality at this range. It is all based on luck, but the impact on the morale of the Vietnamese army is huge. The loud rumbling of artillery has been endless, and many Vietnamese troops have begun to retreat.

On the flagship, Chen Ao seemed to be enjoying the most beautiful symphony. He held tea in his hand and sat on the chair set up on the deck with his legs crossed his legs. He was still following the loud sound of the cannon. Behind him, a navy captain couldn't bear it anymore, bent down and said in Shen Ao's ear: "Your Highness, will you waste gunpowder if you continue to fight like this?"

Chen Ao leaned over and drank a sip of tea, without any heartache, and said calmly: "What do you feel sorry for? Our friends from Dayue will pay us gunpowder. I gave them shells, but they dare not pay?"

The captain showed a strange look and stood aside obediently.

The crossbow and artillery roared for a full stick of incense. After the smoke filled the entire sea, the entire sea area became quiet. Then, there was another whimpering horn. More than 200 sand boats began to cross the crowd. On the sand boat, the sailors were ready to pull out their long swords. They looked at the coast with their dead eyes. The lieutenant on the bow had drawn out the Confucian sword and said word by word to the densely packed troops in the boat: "After getting ashore, don't rush to rush, gather together for the time being, and kill them if you stop them. However, if the thief army fled, you can ignore it and kill the Vietnamese army that was stubbornly resisting."

The Confucian swords of the lieutenants can be seen. In the sun, they flashed with a sensational cold light. Wet sweat was dripping from their foreheads, jaws, and noses, and a layer of fishy smell was also stuck on the armor. The Confucian swords couldn't help but stab at the sky and roared: "The king's flag is behind us. Your Highness personally supervised the battle. This Confucian army is willing to die with you. Are you willing to bleed with me?"

"Why don't you dare!" Such a sound erupted from the sand ships.

"Then, today we share life, death, honor and disgrace. This lieutenant will follow me. The human nature is like a wolf, insulting my wife and daughter, killing my robes, and avenging revenge. It's today!"

The sailors had already breathed a sigh of relief. Their unusual imperial guards were all selected by thousands of people. They practiced day and night, and were so energetic. Today, the afflictions were ticked out by the lieutenants, and their eyes were red.

Sand boats easily pass through the shipwreck area. The so-called sand boat is a large flat-bottom sailboat that is not easy to strand when encountering stone reefs, beaches, or even shipwreck obstacles. This kind of boat is very popular in complex sea areas with a lot of silt, and the sand boat has a unique structure. The square head and tail, the deck surface is spacious, and the ship's side is low; the keel with the beam arches is used to enable the deck to quickly discharge waves; there is a special "outlet" to facilitate the installation of elevators, and a "virtual boat" to facilitate the control of the tent. The ship is equipped with many masts and sails, and the speed is relatively fast. Because it is a flat bottom, it is not afraid of obstacles in the sea. After the construction of the Nanyang Navy, a large number of these ships were purchased to adapt to landing operations.

There were as many as 20,000 sailors sitting on the sand boat. They had practiced such landing operations for countless times. Therefore, when the hundreds of sand boats approached the coast lightly, no one talked or laughed, and everyone's faces were calm, and occasionally the voice of the captain could only be heard.

Li Richao on the shore already felt something was wrong. He could not have expected that the boat that blocked the bay would be easily destroyed by the Song army. At this time, it was already in chaos, so he had to indiscriminately order: "Shoot, shoot arrows, don't allow Song Gou to land."

Hundreds of Vietnamese infantry archers led their bows and arrows, but at this time the morale had dropped to the lowest point, so where would there be a counterattack? After shooting in a few rounds step by step, the effect was not very good. Most of the arrows fell into the sea. Occasionally, a low cry broke out from the sand ship. Someone was caught and was immediately arranged to be in the cabin for treatment.

The sailors were still silent, and the rustling rain of arrows made them even more murderous. When the first ship hit the beach hard, the flat bottom of the ship rubbed against the mud and sand, and the captain on the bow had already pulled up his knife and roared: "Get off the boat."

On the first ship, the black sailors jumped off the beach with the side of the ship, braved the arrows and stones, gathered beside the captain.

More and more sand boats rushed into the beach, and teams of sailors were displayed on the beach. Then, on the beach that stretched for miles, a sudden burst of loud sounds.

"kill!"

On the beach, the crowds of people were like the tide that was slapping on the beach. With this short sound, under the flags, everyone roared and rushed towards the port.

The strengths of the Vietnamese army fought in the mountains and ridges. They knew the terrain well, had strong tolerance, were not afraid of mosquitoes, and were agile. However, they had never tried such a large-scale landing battle. Seeing the overwhelming Song army rushing over, under the urging of Li Richao, they had to raise their weapons and face the seemingly invincible enemy.

After the first team of sailors rushed into a simple obstacle, dozens of Vietnamese troops rushed out from behind the obstacle. These short Vietnamese troops originally wanted to disperse each other, but as soon as they came into contact, they tried the power of the Song army.

The first to take the lead was a military officer with different clothes than the sailors. He wore an iron-shelled Fanyang hat and a terrifying Confucian sword. He actually led the way and rushed into the Vietnamese army without hesitation.
