Chapter 128 Goguryeo Naval Battle
The scorching sun is in the sky, and there is no cloud in the sky.
Under the whistling sea breeze, the "Piaoxiang" ate the wind and swelled up in full force, pushing the ship forward and sailing at high speed through the wind and waves in the sea.
Under the guidance of this giant ship, about 30 sea ships followed closely behind and lined up.
Navigating in the vast ocean, this huge fleet can naturally use the endless ocean to cover its traces at will, but when it walks close to the coastline,
It can be said that it was unobstructed, so naturally it was impossible to hide its whereabouts. Therefore, when this huge fleet passed by Baekje and Goguryeo, it immediately triggered a riot that was endless when it passed by the shore.
At first, there was a boat with a not-so-large size, almost smaller than the smallest ship in the Chu Tianxiu fleet. The boat with the Goguryeo flag chased after him, as if he wanted to ask something.
After Li Jing saw that the two enemy ships had just waved casually, the five trenchers on his car started to operate at the same time, and threw a round of stone bullets into the direction of the fleet, sinking them into the sea.
Now it is a war, so there is no need to ask the enemy's purpose, cause and effect, and do not show any kindness and kindness. Just destroy the enemy.
The destruction of this ship is just the beginning.
Goguryeo is a great country that is thousands of miles away from the ocean. Even during the three expeditions of Goryeo by Emperor Yang of Sui, their navy was almost destroyed. However, the lean camels were bigger than horses. In recent years, the Sui Dynasty had no time to take care of this. This made Goguryeo really have a few years of peace and gradually formed a new navy.
But they did not expect that after Li Jing lowered the flag and asked their ships to adjust the direction and keep the distance between the two sides in a suitable position that was not far or near, they issued a very cruel order:
The cables were not coiled up and were not qualified.
Even though the sea surface is too wide and the ship's movements are too flexible, the probability of the catapult hitting the enemy ship is very low, but in this round, some lucky stones hit the target, and the damage to the enemy ships of almost hundreds of pounds is undoubtedly fatal.
So much so that except for a large ship that was only scratched by a rock bullet, the medium ship was only broken by a wooden board, which was not a big deal, if ordinary small clutchers were hit by a rock bullet, they would be smashed to pieces and be submerged in this cruel ocean.
Li Jing didn't care what the purpose of those ships were. After discovering that these ships entered his attack range, he asked the navigator to wave his flags, use the flag language, and ordered the catapults on all ships to launch an offensive and sink the ships.
Even after Chu Tianxiu had a fixed territory, he was not very successful in making his subordinates burning sand and making glass, and he could not completely remove the glass and make completely qualified glass, but he also bought large pieces of transparent crystals at all costs and made three telescopes.
When Chu Tianxiu's fleet was about to approach the port of Pyongyang, he found that there were large tracts of sea boats in the water ahead of him. Even though there were not many large ships with a size of more than five meters in these ships, only more than ten, the number of small clutches with small sizes was indeed very large, and it seemed that there were at least two or three hundred.
Many ants bite the elephant to death!
Even if the rules of naval warfare are completely different from those of land warfare, in the absence of technological differences, the number of ships is also the key to determining the outcome.
"Cum again!"
Even though Chu Tianxiu was just watching the battle on the Piaoxiang and did not command it himself, he felt a burst of passion, let alone Li Jing, who was personally directing a large naval battle, even if he knew that as long as he spoke, it would be transformed into flagstones by the navigator and conveyed to other fleets, he still shouted loudly to vent his joy in his heart.
"shoot!"
It is necessary to keep the cabin clean, the knots need to be unified and the debris need to be fixed. Before starting the ship, it is necessary to successfully kill mice, carry enough soybeans, and the flag verbs for navigation.
It seems that because the army that was attacked by Emperor Yang of Sui was a bit violent, Goguryeo had a stress response to the navy's combat, making them seem to have prepared beacon towers and police ships on the shore. Once the traces of the enemy ship were found, they would usher in the full attack from the country.
But unfortunately, only the dozen medium-sized ships in their fleet were equipped with catapults, and each ship was only one or two, so they could not effectively counterattack. Therefore, the captains of those ships could do was to drive the ship faster, try to pull the ship closer, and prepare for a jumping gang battle.
Just when the traces of those warships appeared in Chu Tianxiu's eyes, the warships on the opposite side also discovered their existence, causing the scattered fleet to gather here. Moreover, these ships not only had existing distribution rules, forming an inverted triangle formation, but also the ships scattered left and right, attacking here, as if they wanted to encircle and attack here.
A stone with one stone bounced out with good results. Almost every moment, enemy ships were destroyed in the ocean, although those Goguryeo ships seemed to want to strike back.
Even though Chu Tianxiu did not know about real naval warfare, he still knew some basic naval regulations under the whispers of his previous life. Don’t look at the biggest use of these ships is to serve as troop transport ships, but the captains and sailors who drove the ship were trained according to the specifications of the naval he knew.
Compared with the thin attack of only three catapults last time, the throwing momentum was extremely powerful. Hundreds of catapults acted almost at the same time, causing dense stone bullets to smash towards the ship opposite like a stone rain.
"Shoot! All ships, one round of emergency shots!"
"Removing the stone bullet and changing the whale oil!"
Over the years, Chu Tianxiu has been ordering his navy to wander around the nearby waters and hunt whales wandering in the South China Sea and the North Sea to train his navy.
In this process, not only does it obtain a continuous stream of meat consumption, but also some by-products, including whale skins, whale whiskers, and whale oils, which are precious fuels.
On the market in Jiangyin, whale oil is very expensive. Its smokeless properties make it possible to make the best kerosene lamps. However, if they are used on this battlefield, the identity of these whale oils will be transformed into the most brutal fire attack weapon.
