Feather Arrow

A dense feathered arrow

Although the northern Jiangsu Army had few soldiers, the formation of thousands of archers gathered together to pour out feather arrows was grand enough. The water surface was like hail smashed by hail, and a layer of water vapor was crackling. The soldiers on the boat kept falling into the water, including the Black Flag Army soldiers and the Northern Jiangsu Army soldiers. Speaking of which, following the small boats of the Northern Jiangsu Army, the Black Flag Army suffered a little less loss. The soldiers of the Northern Jiangsu Army who fought before really suffered heavy losses.

"Don't shoot arrows!"

A general from the Northern Jiangsu Army who was commanding the army shouted at the top of his voice, but the archers on the shore had gone from being unable to get started to being red now, so who cares about his roar?

A feather arrow came through the gap in the shield in front and pierced into the general's chest with a puff. Although the leather armor blocked the strength of some feather arrows, the arrow still drilled in. The pain made his mind confused for a moment. He subconsciously looked down at the trembling arrow, his eyes full of incredible.

"Why do you need to shoot arrows at your own people?"

He murmured, his eyes filled with sadness.

His personal soldiers hurried over, holding the arrow shaft with one hand and cutting the feather arrow with the other. Because they didn't know how deep it was, no one dared to pull out the feather arrow rashly. The personal soldiers lamented and tore off their clothes to bandage the general: "General, accept your fate. We may have been destined to happen since we went to war. You are lucky enough, your leather armor is thick enough, and it seems that the arrow is not stabbed deep..."

He glanced at the general: "Look at the soldiers you took, what can that thin leather armor block?"

His words came to an abrupt end, and his hands, which were still bandaging the general, were stiff. A trace of fear flashed in his personal soldiers' eyes, and then his body fell down softly. A feather arrow shot in from the back of his neck and came out from the front of his neck. There was still blood on the arrow, and the blood brought by the feather arrow splattered the general's face.

A shout came from the shore, just like the call of the god of death: "Soldiers of the Northern Jiangsu Army, don't lean on the shore anymore! Turn around and fight to the death with the enemy! Even if you die in battle, your family will have a general to support you! Go back and fight to the death!"

The soldiers of northern Jiangsu soldiers on the east coast shouted one after another: "Let's go back and fight to the death!"

"Let's go back and fight to the death!"

West Bank

Wu Yidao looked at Fang Jie and asked in a low voice: "The navy has three warships installed cannons. Do you want to try the power?"

“Wait a little longer…”

Fang Jie held up his eyes and watched how far Du Dingbei's people were from the shore.

"Lord, my subordinates thought the artillery was just equipped on the warship and should be left to use it during the war, so that they can be unexpected. If you use artillery now, you will have less deterrence when facing a strong enemy in the future."

Li Tai, deputy general of the Flying Leopard Army standing beside Fang Jie, said.

Fang Jie shook his head: "The purpose of creating powerful weapons is not just to attack the enemy, but the most important thing is to... reduce the losses of his own people. No matter how precious things are, they are not as precious as human life... The distance is almost the same. Send a signal and let Zheng Qiu fire the cannon!"

With his order, the messenger standing behind him immediately waved his flag.

The navy flagship kept staring at Fang Jie's watchman who saw the flag dancing on the order, and quickly shouted. Zheng Qiu had been waiting for the experiment to get the power of the cannon. After hearing the lookman shouting, he immediately shouted: "Use the cannon to blast out a way to land for our brothers! Go to the dense enemy crowd and beat me hard!"

Several windows suddenly opened on one side of the big ship, and dark artillery guns pushed out from the window. In the cabin, the soldiers of the Firearms Camp who had been training in the Zhuque Mountain Camp for several years had been waiting for this moment. This was the first actual combat since the establishment of the Firearms Camp, and their mood was even more excited than Du Dingbei.

Bang!

Bang bang bang!

As the first cannon spit out flames, all the cannons placed on the side of the ship opened fire, sweeping the fire snake. As the shells were fired, the huge recoil tilted the ship to one side, but it quickly returned to balance. This was something that the navy had tried many times long ago, so no one was worried.

The camp of the archers of the northern Jiangsu Army on the other side immediately exploded. The soldiers of the northern Jiangsu Army watched burning trajectories thrown from the big ship. Before they could react, the shells were already exploding in the crowd. These shells were modified based on Fang Jie's artillery shells seized by the Oplu Empire in Yunnan Province. After the explosion, the range of killing was extremely large.

The first shell fell into the archer crowd, and the scattered fragments immediately swept down a piece of people!

...

...

After one round of bombing of three large ships equipped with artillery, the opposite shore was completely in chaos. The northern Jiangsu army did not know what it was, and its power was so amazing. The weapons in their hands seemed so small in front of the exploded shells, and the strong shield could not stop such terrifying power.

Although there were only a dozen shells falling into the crowd, their deterrent effect was enough. The soldiers of the Northern Jiangsu Army began to retreat and their formation immediately became scattered.

At this moment, the centipede clutch, where Du Dingbei was located, was the first to approach the shore. Because the wooden stakes were smashed by the Subei Army in the shallow water on the shore, even the centipede clutch could not dock, so the soldiers of the Black Flag Army stopped the boat three or four meters away from the shore, and then jumped into the river one after another.

Although Du Dingbei's martial arts were ordinary, he had never thought about commanding behind at this time. He knew very well how to establish prestige in the minds of the soldiers. There was no better way than fighting side by side with the soldiers. So, although he was very scared, he still did not retreat.

"Go ashore! Stabilize the formation and open up a clearing for the people behind!"

Du Dingbei took off his upper clothes, held the horizontal knife in his mouth and jumped into the river. Seeing that the young man was so brave, the soldiers on the boat took off their shirts and jumped into the river to swim to the shore.

"Shoot the arrow!"

"Shoot the arrow!"

Mr. Xishan saw that the soldiers of the Black Flag Army were about to land, and he could no longer sit still. He shouted loudly, and then turned around and ordered the supervisory team to kill people behind to stabilize the formation. The artillery shocked a large number of soldiers from the Northern Jiangsu Army, and the sudden explosion made them full of fear.

After hearing the order, the supervisor team stood in a row behind the array and pulled the crossbow in their hands without any mercy. At the beginning, the soldiers of the Northern Jiangsu Army who ran back immediately fell down to the next floor, and some people began to cry and beg for mercy, but the responsibility of the supervisor team was that even if they didn't want to attack their comrades, how could the military order be like a mountain?

The soldiers of the Northern Jiangsu Army were forced to return to the shore. At this time, hundreds of people from the Black Flag Army had gathered on the shore to form a thin circular formation. The most basic formation for defense is the square formation, but this terrain circular formation has better effect. This is a formation composed of hundreds of shirtless Black Flag Army men, using the knife in their hands and the blood in their wounds to make a place for the subsequent team.

Du Dingbei was bloody on his body. After all, he was not good at martial arts. This young man who led the army for the first time showed enough calmness. This was not easy. An ordinary child had never seen a battle formation. It was already impressive to see him without hesitating his pants in a sea of ​​blood. What's more, he could still keep his mind clear.

Following the advice of the guard, Du Dingbei stood in the center of the round formation and commanded: "If the enemy has heavy armored infantry, they will rush over immediately. Don't panic or retreat when you see heavy armored infantry coming. If we retreat, the brothers behind will suffer heavy casualties! Since we are rushing over in the first wave, I am ready to die with you. Are you ready!"

"Die for the Black Flag Army!"

The soldiers roared, and the shirtless men looked fearless!

Du Dingbei finished speaking, hundreds of heavy armored infantry from the northern Jiangsu Army rushed towards this side on the high slope of the river embankment. In the panicked northern Jiangsu Army camp, these well-trained heavy armored infantry seemed particularly eye-catching. Du Dingbei saw the group of heavy armors coming towards this side and bit his lip: "Get ready! Don't retreat!"

"No step back!"

A group of men roared, and the sun shone on their blood-filled bronze skin, reflecting a sense that only bloody men have!

The raised muscles, the scars.

Only on the battlefield can a man’s male character be fully displayed!

...

...

Seeing that the heavy armored infantry of the Northern Jiangsu Army were about to rush over, several cavalry rushed over from behind the Northern Jiangsu Army. The cavalry led by the head looked urgent. When they saw the location of the flag from afar, they shouted a few times: "Yaning City was broken by the Black Flag Army! The city has been broken! General! Our city was broken by a black flag army that suddenly appeared!"

Sun Yingdian, who was already panicked, turned so scared that his face turned pale when he heard the shout. His body shook for a few times and he sat on the ground.

"Bad! Idiot!"

After hearing the shout, Mr. Xishan cursed a few hatefully, with a look of despair in his eyes. He had completely defeated this battle until today. Only now did he suddenly realize why he should promote a young man who had never had the experience of leading troops.

It was with such a gimmick that attracted everyone's attention, including himself. Fang Jie deliberately created the atmosphere, and even he was angry. He has been famous in North Suzhou for a long time, and the bandits were frightened when they heard about it. It was precisely because of this that Fang Jie deliberately let the unknown young man come to command and arouse his anger.

Fang Jie took advantage of all his attention here and sent a team to the back to break through Yaning City. Now that the foundation has been lost, what is the point of fighting this battle?

Mr. Xishan sighed to the sky and sat down softly.

Hearing the shouts of the cavalry behind, the soldiers of the Northern Jiangsu Army, who had already lost most of their fighting spirit, were in chaos. The heavy armored infantry who were already squeezing forward were all stunned. I wonder if they should continue to rush forward. They were not fools, and soon thought of a possibility.

If they rushed up, they would definitely be able to squeeze the hundreds of Black Flag Army soldiers down, but it won’t take long to catch the Black Flag Army soldiers who had broken through Yaning City and would come from behind. They were wearing such heavy armor and would be rolled into the battle formation and would not be able to run away!

A sound

A soldier in front of the Northern Jiangsu Army suddenly threw away the horizontal knife in his hand, held his head and squatted down: "I've surrendered!"

The first person who surrendered appeared, followed by a large group of people immediately. This despair spread like a plague in the army of northern Jiangsu. The group of soldiers surrounding Du Dingbei on the shore were the first to drop their weapons. Du Dingbei had already claimed that he would die. He knew that success and crisis would always be connected. Since he chose to accept Fang Jie's order to command the war, he had made two preparations.

Welcome the reputation that is coming, or welcome death.

When Du Dingbei's eyes lit up when he heard the sound of Yaning City being broken in the northern Jiangsu army, he immediately lit up: "Forward! As soon as our reinforcements arrived, they were behind the enemy!"

"forward!"

Hundreds of Black Flag Army soldiers rushed out first and made clear out the open space. The subsequent Black Flag Army soldiers began to land in large numbers. Without resistance, the Black Flag Army occupied the shore very quickly.

In the crowd
