"General, the latest news from the front line."

Ishikawa Taki was staring at the south. Hearing this, he quickly glanced at the battle report and handed it to the military adviser next to him.

"What do you think?" he asked.

The military advisers hesitated for a while, and someone stood up.

"General, our fleet made a big circle to the north before arriving at Huayang County. Although we have cheated the East China Sea barrier, there is not much food left on the ships."

"General Kawashima meant to suspend the landing to consume the ammunition and ammunition on the enemy's high ground. This... can't be wrong, but compared to the safety of the entire fleet, it's just picking sesame seeds and losing watermelons."

"The subordinates feel that the front line should strictly implement the general's order, forcefully land at the first time, and then enter Huayang County as quickly as possible."

In order to prevent the East China Sea barrier from coming to the north after regaining consciousness.

The other military divisions nodded in agreement, "General, I mean the same thing."

Ishikawa Taki did not make a sound immediately, but looked up to the west.

However, at this time, the Dinghai Wharf was completely covered by colorful gunfire and soaring smoke, and it was impossible to see the left and right highlands clearly.

"The general ordered that the front army land after half an hour."

When the news spread to the front, Kawashima Taro let out a sigh of relief.

Half an hour is not long, but it is definitely not short either.

If the enemy general on the high ground didn't notice something was wrong during the period, and still kept hitting the artillery fire, then he really had to thank the other party's family.

"Pass my order, all warships move forward steadily, pay attention to marking the anti-landing reef in the water, and try to open up as many safe passages as possible for the subsequent brother fleet."

"At the same time, as long as it is within our range, try to shoot out all the arrows and stones on the ship, and at the same time give priority to destroying the trebuchets on the high ground."

"Yes!"

Not long after, a messenger ran over with a smile on his face.

"General, report from the front. After repeated confirmation of each ship, there are only some wrecks in the shallow water area, and no anti-landing reefs and anti-landing piles have been found for the time being..."

Really?

Kawashima couldn't believe it, his eyes widened a bit.

Scuttling ships offshore to form obstacles is the simplest and easiest way to counter landing, but the reverse can also be said to be the most incompetent and lazy method.

Because of the ebb and flow of the tide, it hardly acts as a real barrier.

"Really." The orderly nodded heavily, "The generals of the ships reported it after repeated confirmation."

"Unbelievable!" Kawashima glanced in the direction of Jinlongtan with emotion.

If Xiao Zheng and Zhang Yang had done the same thing back then, I am afraid that the entire Baekje and Huayang County would belong to them.

Thinking of this, Chuan Dao couldn't help but walked out of the cave, and ran to the bow of the ship to look forward.

However, the artillery fire ahead seems to be more violent than before.

Whether in the sky or in the sea, there are flying stone bombs, rockets and thick smoke everywhere.

Kawashima tried his best to stare, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything clearly.

"General," the guards were indignant while busy setting up the air defense net, "it's unreasonable. Is the Central Army really entrusted to us or does it really not care about us?"

"Never mind." Kawashima laughed happily.

Regardless of whether the Central Army Corps favors or despises them, it is a great thing for them anyway.

After laughing, he turned to look at the orderly who was chasing after him.

"What's going on, the ships in front haven't come into range yet?"

"Returning to the general, nearly half of our warships have entered the attack range. The ships are trying to launch all the materials according to the general's intention, and at the same time, they are preparing to concentrate their firepower to attack the targets on the high ground first. It's just..."

It's just because of the limited level of the little soldiers, coupled with the low sea and high mountains, and the smog is too big, there is no outstanding record for the time being.

Kawashima frowned, but he was not surprised, and finally he could only say, "Let them cheer up, just say that His Majesty the Emperor is watching them from behind."

"Yes!" The orderly hurried away.

----

On the shore, the left flank highlands.

Shhhhhh.

After fighting for so long, the sea finally fought back.

Scattered crossbows flew up, bombarding different places far and near, knocking up sand and soil one after another.

However, the opponent's aiming hand was really difficult to use. The fired crossbow arrows barely touched the catapults and ballista groups, let alone people.

"It's unreasonable, the Japanese pirates dare to fight back!"

After sending Qi Daming and others to the imperial envoy Fang Yinbao, Luo Junjie hurried back to the front line.

This will be full of energy jumping up and down to direct the battle.

"Brothers, keep an eye on those enemy ships that dare to fight back, and kill them for me."

……

There was silence all around, and the voices of soldiers panting heavily could be heard everywhere.

Ballistas and trebuchets are certainly powerful, but whether it is winding, twisting, pulling, or loading, it is a lot of physical work.

Most of the soldiers had done their usual training, but after fighting for so long, all of them were almost exhausted.

If it weren't for Fang Yuanwu's 1000 taels of silver as a temptation, many people would have been unable to hold on.

After a long while, only a few people responded feebly.

"Yes!"

"understood."

"General, we are working hard. The Otsuka is already smoking everywhere, and it is estimated that it will sink after a few more strokes."

When it was said that there was an enemy ship about to sink, the little soldiers did not generate a burst of strength out of thin air, and started working desperately.

After a while, the intensity of the attack increased a lot.

Shhhhhh.

Crossbow arrows flew, boulders smashed wildly.

For a while, the Otsuka was again intensively bombarded.

I don't know when everything on its deck has been destroyed, and even a few hideous big holes were broken, and thick smoke billowed from the holes.

Anyway, it looks like it is crumbling, and it looks like it will sink at any time.

However, after a while, it was still firm on the sea, and even slowly moved towards the coast.

"Idiot!" A supervisor couldn't help but raged at the nearest aimer, "Where the hell are you aiming at? Haven't you been in a war? What's the use of attacking its deck all the time, aiming at the waterline."

Humph.

The aimer sneered disdainfully, "You are the only one who is smart."

As the most relaxed and freehand job on the catapult and ballista positions, not everyone can take on the aimer.

It requires certain cultural knowledge.

Ordinary soldiers are usually illiterate, and it is almost impossible for them to take up this position.

The aimer in front of him has some background and is not afraid of the so-called supervising army.

"It really doesn't hurt to stand and talk, why don't you try it?"

"The enemy ship is already very close to the shore. Our position is too high. If we lower the attack angle, we will be shooting at the hillside in front."

"Brother," the little superintendent trembled with anger, "there are enemies on the surface of the sea, so you won't attack those behind? Why do you have to stare at the Otsuka?"

As a result, so many precious broken crossbow arrows were wasted in vain.

"You know what!" The aimer gave the other party another contemptuous look. "The Otsuka is about to sink. As the saying goes, killing him while he's sick is the most effective way to attack it."

The most important thing is that only by sinking it can you win the prize, and hitting the enemies behind is a fart!
"Brothers, am I right?"

The little soldiers on the same broken ballista nodded one after another, "It is said that the bonus is the most important!"

If there was no encouragement from bonuses, they would have been lying on the floor and clamoring to take turns to rest.

Haha!

There was arguing here, and cheers suddenly burst out not far away.

"The Otsuka is gone, we sunk it."

Fuck!
The aimer hastily looked down.

Sure enough, the Otsuka sank into the sea bubbling and bubbling, only a little bit of the bow or stern was still exposed on the water.

"It's all your bastard," he glared at the supervisor angrily, "Go away! We missed the final blow."

"Still leaving?" The other people in the same car also glared at each other.

Seeing that he couldn't be provoked, the little supervisor had no choice but to leave in a fit of anger.

With the sinking of the Otsuka, it seems that the time has finally come for the soldiers of the Central Army Corps to reap the results of the battle on a large scale.

Soon, there were enthusiastic cheers all around from time to time.

"Haha. The rich trombone sank, we did it."

"The Xiongchuan also sank, I did it." (End of this chapter)
