Chapter 504 Nanjiang Water Battle

Nothing happened all night.

The next day, Lin Feng got up early. After breakfast, he was escorted by Bai Shan and a group of Tianbing Guards to the navy port.

As soon as Lin Feng got off the carriage, all the generals who had been waiting here for a long time came forward and bowed their hands, "I will pay my respects to His Highness the Wise King!"

Lin Feng quickly raised his hand, "Generals, there is no need to be polite. General Li, are the warships ready?"

Li Ming quickly raised his hand and said, "Your Highness, King Xian, don't worry. The navy's two hundred largest building ships are ready. All the soldiers of the Musketeer Battalion have been aboard. We can set off at any time."

Lin Feng nodded, "General Song and Qin General Xu Sima, you must be ready to board the ship at any time. After the Tianbingwei destroyed the Yue Navy, the army will cross the river immediately."

Song Dian, Qin Jingyun, and Xu Hui all raised their hands, "Yes, virtuous king! I obey!"

Lin Feng waved his right hand and said, "The army sets off!"

"Yes!"

Subsequently, 40,000 Tianbingwei and 10,000 elite naval forces controlled 300 large-scale ships and left the naval port, sailed into the Nanjiang River in a mighty manner, and headed directly towards the Vietnamese naval port on the opposite side of the Nanjiang River.

Such a large-scale action by Yan Jun could not be concealed from the Vietnamese army on the other side of the river. After receiving the news, Xu Jin immediately ordered all naval warships to leave the harbor to fight.

Soon, the Yue State's 50,000-strong naval force and more than a thousand warships met the Yan State's 50,000-strong navy and 300 large-scale ships in the center of the river.

Yan Jun commanded the ship, while Lin Feng, Liu Song, Li Ming, and Gong Yuan were observing the situation of the Vietnamese navy on the opposite side with telescopes.

"Wise King, although the warships of the Yue Navy are small, there are thousands of them, and they are very scattered. This may greatly reduce the hit rate of the artillery." Li Ming said.

Lin Feng nodded, "General Li is right. It seems that Xu Jin is indeed very good at water warfare. It would be great if such a talent can be used by me, Dayan."

"General, don't worry. We have thousands of artillery pieces. In the face of absolute strength, any tactics can only play a supporting role and cannot change the situation of the battle." Miyahara said.

"Brother Gong, order all the artillery to be ready. Once the Vietnamese warship on the opposite side comes within the range of the artillery, fire immediately."

"Yes, General!"

Miyahara cupped his hands, picked up the flag on the flag stand and began to wave it.

"Wise King, I can't wait to see the terrifying power of explosive bombs fired from artillery."

"Explosive bomb? What is an explosive bomb?"

Li Ming looked at Lin Feng with a puzzled expression. Lin Feng smiled and slowly explained: "General Li, explosive bombs, as the name suggests, are exploding artillery shells. This is a new type developed by Lijiazhuang's arsenal to unify South Vietnam. Cannonball."

Li Ming's face lit up, "Great. With the explosive bombs, the power of the artillery will be greatly enhanced. We can completely eliminate the Yue navy in one battle."

Soon, the Vietnamese warships began to enter the effective range of the artillery. "General Gong, order the warships in front to fire immediately."

"Yes, General!"

Miyahara immediately waved the battle flag in his hand. Cheng Tianhu received the order to fire and immediately ordered the thirty warships in the front to fire.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Boom boom boom..."

There were explosions on the calm river, and countless Vietnamese warships were hit, setting off raging fires.

Xu Jin had a good idea. He believed that as long as the distance between the warships of the two countries was more than thirty steps, Yan State's bombs would not be able to attack him, and the Vietnamese army could rely on their advantage of having more warships to fight a war of attrition against Yan's army.

However, the ideal is very full and the reality is very skinny. Our warship is still three hundred steps away from Yan Jun, and it is attacked by Yan Jun's artillery. Moreover, the shells fired by the artillery are not big iron balls, but can explode like bombs. of cannonballs.

Although the hit rate of the artillery is not high, there are too many artillery pieces to withstand Yan Jun's artillery. Facing Yan Jun's artillery, the small warship will sink to the bottom of the river after being hit by two explosive bombs, and it will be lost in just half a cup of tea. Dozens of small warships.

The warship was hit by artillery. Although it could not sink for a while, the explosion of the artillery shells on the ship would ignite the wooden deck and cabin of the ship. The fire would spread and the warship would lose its combat effectiveness. If it was hit by a few more cannonballs, it would probably be a disaster. Shen Jiang.

Looking at the dozens of warships in front of him that were emitting thick black smoke, Xu Jin's face turned very ugly. Yan Jun actually developed a cannonball that can explode. It can blow up your warships from far away. Shen, this battle is simply impossible to fight.

Xu Jin finally understood why Yan Jun didn't fire yesterday. It turned out that he was concealing his strength so that he could catch us by surprise during the general attack!

At this point, Xu Jin had no other choice. He could only order the Vietnamese warships to continue to move forward. As the warships of Yan and Yue got closer and closer, Yan's hundred warships equipped with artillery were already fully engaged. fire.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Boom boom boom..."

Dense explosions exploded on the river. Even if the shells did not hit the warship, they would explode after falling into the water. Water columns rose into the sky from the river. The scene was indeed very spectacular.

"Your Majesty, the power of this artillery is too great. If we continue like this, all the thousands of warships in the Yue Kingdom will sink into the river in another hour." Li Ming put down the telescope in his hand and couldn't help but He let out an exclamation.

Liu Song was also shocked by the big scene in front of him, "My lord, this explosive bomb is simply a magical weapon of water warfare! It seems that it won't be long before we can completely eliminate the Yue navy."

"The navy that the Yue Kingdom is so proud of is just a joke in front of Tianbingwei. It's just around the corner for me, Dayan, to dominate the world!" Li Ming was also very excited.

Lin Feng nodded. The Yan army, which had artillery and explosive bombs, faced off against the Vietnamese army, which used bows and arrows as its main means of attack. This was a dimensionality-reducing attack by the hot soldiers against the cold soldiers. Lin Feng was not surprised at all to achieve this result.

Under the attack of Yan Jun's artillery, the Yue warships were on fire and smoking. The soldiers on the ships were busy putting out the fire and repairing the damaged decks. If the warships had taken on water and were sinking, the Yue soldiers could abandon the ships and flee to other battles. Boat.

As more and more Vietnamese warships sank, the Nanjiang River was full of Vietnamese soldiers who had lost their warships. Every time a shell exploded on the water, more than a dozen lives were taken away.

Time passed little by little, and after paying a heavy price, the Vietnamese army finally arrived on the river within a hundred steps of Yan Guo's warship.

"Boom bang bang..."

Yan Jun's muskets were fired, and the Vietnamese army hurriedly hid behind the prepared bunker, and then waited for an opportunity to counterattack Yan Jun with bows and arrows.

As the warships of Yan and Yue continued to approach, the underwater special forces that Xu Jin had just organized yesterday jumped off the warship with weapons in hand, and then continued to approach Yan's warship while sneaking underwater.

However, the actions of the Vietnamese underwater special forces could not be concealed from the Yan army commanders holding binoculars.

On the warship, Cheng Tianhu was observing the enemy's situation with a telescope in his hand. When he saw the Vietnamese soldiers taking the initiative to dive into the water, a faint smile appeared on his face, "Everyone, prepare the mines!"

"Yes, General!"
