Chapter 678

On Dongguanling, Li Mi shook his body, and he could no longer stand steadily, and fell down all of a sudden.

"King of Wei, King of Wei..." Fang Xuanzao and other generals hurriedly supported Li Mi. They pinched the man and pushed the man and pushed the man. After a long time, Li Mi woke up. Li Mi's face was green and her fingers were trembling at the extremely dazzling scene in the sky above the Yellow River to the north.

"What is that, what is that, who can tell me what is that?"

The Hebei Navy's Fire Dragon just now fired a hundred fire dragons out of the water. In the end, each fire dragon fired another hundred rockets from the mouth. If this attack was in broad daylight, the effect would definitely not be so great now.

In the dark night sky, Li Mi stood on the 100-meter-high Shandong Guanling, and was paying attention to the water battle on the Yellow River. He could see the battle situation he was thrown away. Dongguanling was only less than five miles away from the water surface of the battle, and was only more than a thousand steps.

Even with the naked eye, it can be seen very clearly. What's more, Li Mi was holding the Qianli Mirror made by the Liaodong Ordnance Bureau, which was done by Wei's spies and tried every means to get at many costs. With such a treasure in hand, standing on this Guandong Ridge can clearly see the nearby.

But it is precisely because of this that Li Mi had just clearly seen the equipment launched by the Hebei Navy. The Wei army on the Yellow River only saw the huge weapons and the appearance of the dragon head, and shouted that it was the anger of the Dragon God.

But although Li Mi also saw those, he did not believe in the so-called ghosts and gods. He was very sure that this must be a firearm from Hebei. What he was really scared of was the power of this firearm. Such a large weapon could actually make him fly five or six hundred steps away.

Five or six hundred steps away, this distance strike made Li Mi extremely afraid. The most powerful crossbow in the Wei army was only seven hundred steps away. However, to use such a large crossbow, the Wei army had to use nearly two hundred people to operate this crossbow. Even if it was added with the power of mules and horses, it would be less than fifty people. Moreover, this crossbow was extremely slow to fire and was huge in size, so it could only be used in defending the city.

But just now, he saw it very clearly that Chen Kefu's navy brought out the weapon. When it was launched, it was only a few breaths before and after. Moreover, the distance of the weapon was five or six hundred steps away. What made him even more frightened was that when the weapon flew so far, it would actually eject so many rockets from the belly of the weapon.

He is not unfamiliar with rockets. From the information collected by the spies, he had known for a long time that this kind of rocket that uses gunpowder to strengthen the range. Ordinary strong arrows can be at most 120 to 30 steps. However, a rocket like Hebei that is equipped with gunpowder booster is larger than ordinary arrows and has a longer range, and can shoot up to two hundred steps away.

But now, Chen Pojun suddenly developed a more powerful weapon and used the large rocket to fly and shoot more than 600 steps away. Then when the strength was exhausted, the small rocket in the belly of the large rocket began to continue to launch.

In this way, the range of the small rocket is equal to a range of about 800 steps. At this time, one step is to take a small step each with the left and right feet, and the standard step is five feet. Two steps are one zhang, and eight hundred steps are four hundred feet. Four hundred feet are a distance of four hundred feet, which is already beyond the range of any weapon that Li Mi knew.

The maximum range of super-large crossbows is 700 steps, and it must be operated and fired with more than 100 people. The firing rate is extremely slow, and it is difficult to disassemble and transport, so it can only be limited to defending the city and fighting. However, now, this sudden weapon has a range of 800 steps beyond the outside. And it can be operated with only two or three people. It can even be fired on the bow of the ship, which makes Li Mi not afraid.

If Chen Kefu had a large number of such weapons, he would have to go forward and he had not even seen the Hebei Army's front line, but the Hebei Army could already use rockets all over the sky to make him defeated.

"King of Wei, Chen Kefu has such a sharp weapon. Although there will definitely not be too many of these weapons. However, our navy has lost all morale after this attack. Please ask the King of Wei to order the navy to withdraw the troops. Fighting again is just fearless casualties. Now we have blocked Chen Kefu from front, back, left and right, and he is already a turtle in the jar. Even if we are trapped, we can trap him. Why bother with his own weaknesses and fight against him? "Chen Luoyan's heart just now also experienced a violent shock, but at this time, she understood that if Li Mi did this, the morale of the Wei army would inevitably decline greatly. If you don't have to fight this battle, you will lose for a while.

Li Mi nodded with gritted teeth, "Gou miscalculated. I didn't expect that Chen Kefu would have such a huge battleship and still have such powerful combat power. Gu still only said that the more powerful the battleship, the more difficult it would be to play on the Yellow River. He wanted to defeat him first, but he didn't expect, hey, miscalculated, and ordered the navy to withdraw his troops."

A soldier had heard the order and put out the three huge bonfires on the mountain and rang the gongs.

On the surface of the Yellow River, Zhang Zhongjian, who was on the Anlan, heard the sound of gold from Li Mi on Mang Mountain, and sneered a few disapprovingly, "There is a good thing that King Chen said, anyone can initiate a war, but if you want to end the war, it is only the right of the victors of the war. Now we are the victors, and Li Mi wants to withdraw his troops and stop fighting, so he has to ask whether we are willing to do so. The commander passed the commander that the enemy navy was already scared and ordered the warships in the front line to launch rockets, throw stones, and completely annihilate the enemy navy."

The Wei army pieced together the navy, which had 10,000 people, hundreds of ships of all sizes, and even many wooden rafts. It seemed that there were many people, but the attack of the fire dragon coming out of the water just now was really shocking. For these rebels who were mostly from peasants, it was the anger of the Dragon God. They didn't believe that anyone in the world could create such a weapon.

As soon as the battle came into being, the morale of the Wei Navy had fallen to the bottom, and a large number of soldiers dropped their swords and lay on the bow of the ship to pray. When a hundred fire dragons suddenly ejected ten thousand rockets, the rockets in the sky might not have much effect on the infantry formation on the shore. However, when ten thousand rockets shot on the messy ships like pear blossoms with whistling sounds like rain, it was a very fatal blow.

Whether it is a large ship, a small boat, or a wooden raft, they are all made of wood. What wood fears the most is death. There are not many Wei troops who are directly killed by thousands of rockets, but there are many ships that are ignited.

Ships after ships were ignited by rockets. The raging firelight, the rockets that were covered from the sky, the painful howls of the soldiers who were shot in the arrow, and many soldiers who were frightened by the anger of the Dragon God, made the entire Wei army's navy completely confused. Few soldiers would think that they would be willing to resist these rockets head-on. They rushed into the Yellow River and avoided the rockets, but no one went to put out the fire on the ship.

When the battle formations in front of the Hebei Navy came down the river, they did not encounter decent resistance at all. The Hebei Navy and the soldiers of the Jianghuai Army on the ship divided the work and cooperated. The Hebei Navy controlled the ships, fired rockets, threw stones, and defeated and sunk the Wei warships one by one. The soldiers of the Jianghuai Army held the super-long step spears more than two meters long in their hands and poked the Wei soldiers who were like dumplings as they were as thick as the pot.

The flames boiled the river water and lit half of the night sky, while the blood of the Wei soldiers dyed the turbid Yellow River water a layer of bright red.

From beginning to end, the main warships of the Five-Tooth Warship, the third-layer Yellow Dragon Warship, and the Qinglong Warship, these main warships did not take any action. They were just like huge and ferocious monsters, squatting aside, waiting to choose people and devour them at any time.

In less than an hour, the Wei army naval army came out from behind Hexinzhou to the end of the annihilation of the entire army, and the total time did not arrive.

"The order is sent to the whole fleet occupy Hexinzhou, and Hexinzhou is anchored and supported. Speedboats and flat-bottomed troop transport ships are patrolling and guarding each other." Zhang Zhongjian, who had always defeated the Wei Navy, had no expression of happiness on his face, and quickly issued a new military order.

"Master, aren't we going to feint attack Luokou? Why are we docking at Hexinzhou?" After Wang Xuanying had just seen the almost invincible weapon of the Hebei Navy, his confidence in defeating Li Mi suddenly increased countless times. He thought that Zhang Zhongjian would immediately order a direct attack on the beach and fight against Li Mi, but he did not expect that he would stop at Hexinzhou at this time.

Hexinzhou is right in front of them, at the center of the Yellow River two miles upstream of Luokou. It is a square small riverzhou about five miles long and two miles wide. The south bank of the river is the flat and wide beach plain. It is only less than ten miles away from Guanling, Shandong, in Shandong.

"The order of King Chen is a feint attack, and we are a feint attack. And now the more than 10,000 people led by King Chen are still at the mouth of the Jishui River. Now we have swept away Li Mi's fleet on the surface of the Yellow River, and we are just taking advantage of the night to cover His Highness's men and women secretly advancing eastward along the boat." Zhang Zhongjian explained.

Wang Xuanying was still a little unwilling to accept it, "We just won a big victory, and now the soldiers are in a strong morale, so why not just notify King Chen, let's attack Li Mi directly with King Chen. Li Mi has only 120,000 people, but has just lost 10,000, and now there are only 110,000 left. He has suffered a defeat. The morale is at a time of low. We have added King Chen's troops, but there are 120,000 people, which is even more than Li Mi. What's more, we have such a powerful weapon just now. If we don't attack Li Mi now, we are afraid that Li Mi's reinforcements will arrive. At that time, we will not have such a good opportunity."

"King Zheng, King Chen is not only the commander of my Hebei soldiers, but also the soldiers and horses of Zheng also obeyed King Chen's orders. The previous battle plan was the most agreed upon. The military orders were immediately released, so how could the orders be changed every day? King Zheng, you go and prepare too. We have to launch a more fierce attack immediately to cover King Chen's troops." Zhang Zhongjian said without saying anything to Wang Xuanying.

ps: Fire Dragon Out of Water is a secondary rocket, recorded in the Ming Dynasty Navy firearm equipment in Wubeizhi. According to records, the range of this secondary rocket has more than two miles... It's awesome...
