Chapter 56: Textbook-style naval battles (2)(1/2)
Dongdongdongdongdongdong!
The deafening sound of war drums shuttled through the huge waves.
The Japanese warships were small, but light and flexible.
Flying up and down the sea waves, swimming like flying fish.
The Japanese soldiers stood at the bow of the ship.
Their dress is very weird.
Unlike the Tang army, they were wearing armor, but like a fishing black water, reflecting black light.
On their faces, they all painted patterns in various oil paints.
It is both wild and wild.
It seems to be the totem of some kind of primitive nation.
The Japanese soldiers standing at the bow of the ship seemed to have roots at the bow of the ship, and fell down again as the ship was thrown up by huge waves from time to time.
But their bodies were always nailed to the bow of the boat like a javelin, not moved by the wind and waves.
In the hands of these Japanese people, they also held huge bows made of bamboo and jujube wood.
If there are later generations who know archery, they can vaguely see a trace of the shadow of the bow.
But it's not exactly similar.
The archer on the bow, as the waves were rising and falling, shot out the arrow in his hand when he was pushed to the highest point by the wave peak.
The arrow is soaked in oil and sets on fire.
Arrow lights streaked across the cold sky, penetrated the sea breeze, split the waves, and landed on the Tang army's ship.
Thousands of arrows were shot at the same time, like a meteor of fire and rain.
The Tang army was obviously not suitable for the Japanese fighting style, and the number of warships was too small, so they were forced to retreat to Baijiangkou by the Japanese.
Behind the Tang Dynasty naval formation, the Tang Dynasty's tower ships were parked.
If the tower ship rushed out, it might bring considerable damage to the Japanese navy.
But the final result will inevitably be bitten and crushed by the Japanese wolf pack tactics.
The absolute quantity and good organizational cooperation are extremely powerful.
On the main ship of the Tang army, most of the soldiers on the ship were personal soldiers brought by Su Dawei and Xiongjin Governor's Office.
At this time, seeing the Tang army warships keep retreating, and the Japanese ships are pressing step by step, I feel anxious for a moment.
Some people cursed the Japanese army.
Some people took the initiative to petition, hoping to send a tower ship to the battle.
But all the requests for battle were suppressed by Su Dawei.
"Who here knows better about naval commanders than Liu Rengui? I know better about naval combat?"
Su Dawei's eyes swept across the audience and said in a deep voice: "If you don't have one, just shut up and wait and see how General Liu uses his troops. If necessary, he will send us a message to us for support."
Anyone who knows military affairs understands one truth.
In a game between the two sides, it is not the one who plays all the cards in one go that will win.
The early competition is mostly based on tests.
In a real decisive battle, only after seeing the opponent's flaws in reality and reality, will you use all your strength to fight against the rabbit.
Before I could see the situation clearly, I was in a hurry to push the trump card, which was a dead end.
Liu Rengui is obviously a wise man.
And Su Dawei also has enough strategic determination.
Wait for a result.
"No."
Su Qingjie said on the side: "Ami, look at the flag words on Liu Rengui's ship, and we asked our ship to return to the port, this..."
Su Dawei looked carefully and saw that on Liu Renyuan's ship, on the mast watchtower, there were flag soldiers who were waving the flag desperately to convey the message.
Ashinadao said dissatisfiedly: "Our ship is such a big one, and we have not yet fought with the Japanese. We have to retreat to the port?"
Ami, is this Liu Rengui reliable? He isn't he confused, right?"
The generals around him were talking and making suggestions.
Su Dawei shook his head, abandoned the noise around him, and his eyes fell on the place where the two armies were fighting.
The Japanese offensive was fierce.
Nearly two thousand Japanese ships, the rain of arrows continued to throw at the Tang army's warships.
They ejaculated like hedgehogs.
"Liu Rengui is chanting the flag again, so we can retreat quickly."
An Wensheng took a look at the situation: "Where should we retreat or not?"
Su Dawei waved his hand, and his eyes stared at the meteor-like arrow rain in front of him, feeling the enemy getting closer and closer, and the air had a faint smell of scorching sulfur.
If you don’t retreat, I’m afraid that the tower ships will enter the range of the Japanese.
In the sky, the eagle's chirping came.
Su Dawei finally made up his mind: "According to Liu Rengui's orders, do it."
It is easy to go out to sea, just open the sails.
If you want to hide in the harbor, you can only rely on manpower to paddle without the help of the sea breeze.
On the tower ship, more than a hundred Tang army navy soldiers rowed the pulp from the hole near the tower ship's waterline and struggling to hit the water.
Tang Jun Tower Ships retracted towards the harbor at Baijiangkou.
The Japanese war drum changed.
The Japanese soldiers on the watchtower were waving two white flags desperately.
Brother Nakada, who was standing next to Takashi, had his expression unchanged before, was stunned for a moment, and his face showed ecstasy.
He said excitedly to the King of Gaoshi, who was beside him: "The Tang army's ship retreated! They retreated!"
This retreat is a signal of obvious defeat.
If that kind of big ship gallops on the sea, it will have a certain psychological deterrent effect on the Japanese boats.
But once it was retracted back to the harbor, the Japanese would no longer be scruples.
The harbor has limited space for ships to travel.
Moreover, the terrain of the harbor is suitable for sheltering the wind, which means that after the war between the Tang people entered the sea, the mobility will be greatly reduced.
In contrast, the Japanese sea ships, because the boats are small, can fly on the water with only a small amount of manpower.
The general of the Tang Dynasty Navy could not even see through this, and it was simply a matter of God's destruction.
The King of Takashi also realized this.
The folding fan pointed straight ahead and said in a slightly trembling but extremely firm tone: "Roar up and catch up with the Tang people's ship, so that they can't leave contact."
Dong! Dong! Dong!! Dong!!
Flag slogan waving.
The attacking war drums and horns resounded between the sea and the sky at the same time.
The soldiers on the Japanese ship suddenly screamed excitedly, beating the war drums and rowing the water, speeding up the warships and chasing them up with the Tang army's retreating ship.
The dawn of victory seemed to favor the Japanese at this moment.
The King of Japanese was on the ship, Takashi put his hands together and murmured: "God Amaterasu opened the cave door."
"Kill and kill!"
The clouds and waters are churning all over the world.
The five continents are shaking and thunder are shaking.
Time is forever.
Heaven and earth turn.
How many things are always urgent.
Ten thousand years is too long, so I have to seize the day.
On the Tang Army's boat, Su Dawei pressed the handle of the knife and chanted a few poems by great men from later generations.
An Wensheng, Ashindaozhen, Su Qingjie and other generals around him saw the tower ship retreating into the harbor, followed by the warships of Tang army of all sizes and big, and rushed in from the harbor in a mess.
Finally, there are Japanese warships that cannot be caught up with.
To be continued...
