Water Margin: I, Wang Lun, will have many children and many blessings in Liangshan.

Just when Han Shizhong was relaxing, the sound of a gong suddenly sounded from the downstream water village.

This is different from Ming Jin in the army, which is a warning sign.

"There is a water camp of Liangshan bandits coming to disturb?"

The top brass of officers and soldiers are not all stupid people.

In addition to setting up water villages in the roundabouts and important areas along several rivers, there are also water camp warships patrolling back and forth.

Elite infantry patrols will also be sent to the shore to assist the defense of the water village and the garrison officers and soldiers.

During the Battle of Shijiedu, Liangshan destroyed the water grain route of the officers and soldiers with water camps, so that the main force of Shijiedu was defeated without a fight, and nearly 100,000 people were captured.

This is a great disgrace.

Not to mention the Western Army, Tong Guan is also the commander of the army many times, and he will never make similar mistakes again.

The state and county Xiang army, the township soldiers, and the forbidden army were spread out along the Bianhe River and the Yellow River, and more than 100 water villages were built alone.

All the warships were also transferred to the Yellow River and Bianhe River to garrison.

Be sure to secure the food lane!

Han Shizhong also came with this mission, and there are many elite rangers like him.

They didn't mean to attack the incoming enemy on the river, which would certainly not be possible.23 but that the elite Forbidden Army cavalry could quickly stabilize people's hearts, assist in the garrison of the water wall, and if necessary, supervise the battle, or use the large bed crossbows in the water village to shoot......

In each water village, there are at least ten or more heavy bed crossbows and dozens of ordinary bed crossbows.

When used properly, it can cause great pressure on the boats on the river.

At the very least, it will make the enemy's incoming fleet less comfortable, and you can also cooperate with your own warships to carry out long-range strikes and suppression of the enemy.

There will also be some small boats in the water village, equipped with punch angles and flammable materials.

Once the bed crossbow is pressed against the enemy, it can make people rush over in a small boat, ramming the enemy ship and setting it on fire.

One burns and one is accurate.

In addition, there are a large number of garrisons on the shore, and if something is wrong, the grain ship can be moored near the river, and you will come to rob it?

This time it can be regarded as quite well prepared.

So when he heard the sound of the gong, Han Shizhong didn't panic at all, and grinned: "It seems that the thieves don't want to confront each other for a long time, so it's still the idea of fighting the water camp." "

Han Shizhong muttered while ordering his subordinates to quickly lead the horse ashore and put on clothes and armor.

They are all the elite of the Western Army, and they cooperate with each other to wear armor, and when they walk in ten minutes, the cavalry will be fully armored again.

At this time, the downstream ship arrived, more than ten miles away, and everyone saw it quite clearly.

In the middle of the river, there is a long fleet of boats slowly heading upstream.

The high mast, the soft sail is full of wind drums, and there are more than ten meters long pulp on both sides of these boats, one up and down, rowing on the river surface, because the boat has a lot of pulp, and the sound of the paddle can be heard from afar.

It's a spectacle.

Even if he knew in advance that Liangshan Shuiying was good, Han Shizhong and his subordinates were stunned at this time.

"Come with me, go and help the downstream water village!"

Many grain boats and passing boats on the river panicked and leaned towards the river.

But these hard-sailed wooden boats have no wheels, no pulp, and no need to pull fibers in the middle of the river, and in the middle of the river is full of grain or all kinds of goods, it is too difficult to make a quick turn.

Probably seeing that the boats were in need of help, the sound of bed crossbows was heard shortly after the alarm was reported in the waterfront near the river.

"Collapse!"

"Collapse, collapse, collapse!"

The dull and monotonous sound of the bed crossbow hit sounded continuously.

Han Shizhong rode away while looking at the past with humble eyes.

The huge bed crossbow had many metal fittings, shining in the sun, and each bed crossbow required at least twenty or thirty men with tools to pull it apart, and each arrow was as thick as a spear, and after being shot, the distance of two or three hundred paces was enough to pierce the hull of the ship.

It is a pity that at this time there is at least more than 300 steps away from the center of the river, the big river is not as wide as the Yangtze River, but in the summer high water season, Kaifeng here and widen the river, there is always a distance of more than 1,000 steps.

If you go to the vicinity of the mouth of the sea, the width of the ocean can reach more than 1,500 meters.

At its narrowest point, it is only two or three hundred meters wide, which is still far more than an ordinary river.

It is normal for an ordinary large river to be tens of meters wide, but it is a very large river if it is more than 100 meters wide.

Only a few rivers, such as Yishui and Huaishui, are more than a kilometer wide, and many are even wider than the Yellow River.

The Liangshan fleet in front of him was in the river, and a series of spear-like arrows as thick as children's arms were shot into the river by bed crossbows, but most of them missed, and only a few were nailed to the side of the hull of the pulp sailboat, that is, the sawdust was blown away, and there was no threat to the people on board.

"What's the point of them swaggering in the river like this? We have elite foot riders, water villages, bed crossbows, and grain boats that can protect them, and they are beaten in the river?"

No wonder Han Shizhong is puzzled, the current situation is indeed like this.

The grain ship will slowly pull to the side under the cover of the bed crossbow.

Supported by a large number of elite soldiers and horses, no matter how good the battleships of Liangshan are, can they rush to the shore?

As for bed crossbows, everyone didn't believe that Liangshan also had a large number of bed crossbow equipment.

This thing is difficult to build, difficult to use, and even more difficult to maintain.

Each one is extremely expensive, and it is impossible to equip a large number of them with the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty.

This time, because the water surface grain route was critical, before and after the war, the water village was set up, the bed crossbow was placed, and the ordnance supervisor also took out all the bed crossbows in reserve.

Otherwise, there really wouldn't be a way to deploy so many bed crossbows.

These bed crossbows, even with single bows, are bulky and require at least twenty or thirty people to use.

If it is a three-bow crossbow called an eight-ox crossbow, even if there are more than 100 people, it needs animal power to pull, otherwise it will not be able to pull the bowstring at all.

This kind of bed crossbow can be described as a militaristic weapon, and at this time it will only be placed at the head of Kaifeng City, and will not be placed in the water village outside at will.

It's just that even the best weapons need to win people.

When the Jin army opened the seal, he didn't hear of any feats made by the Eight Bull Crossbow.

The Divine Arm Bow has not done much.

Just like in front of you. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Amid the collapse of the bed crossbow, many ships still chose to dock in 897 under the threat of the Liangshan warship.

At this moment, a loud thunderous bang sounded in the river.

Han Shizhong felt that the thunder was blowing in his ears.

My brain was buzzing all of a sudden.

There was a roar, a large area of fire erupted from the bow of the ship, and white smoke rose.

Then a loud click was heard.

A cast-iron cannonball was visible to the naked eye, whizzing and flying forward, before striking under the mast of a grain ship.

With a loud click, the mainmast snapped, and the reed-like mainsail fell with it.

The whole ship completely lost power, and there was no way to adjust the draft.

In addition, there is no slender man and ship pulp, and now he can only moor on the water and wait for death.

"What is this?

Han Shizhong directly broke his heart and gall!

Not only him, but also hundreds of elite cavalry.

The end of the Northern Song Dynasty was the period when firearms appeared in rudiments, and there were still decades before they were actually used on the battlefield.

The rudiments of the modest power and the power displayed by the naval gun in front of them are completely different things. []

Elite military attachés like Han Shizhong, who had experienced a hundred battles, as well as the elite soldiers under his command, were all shocked and shocked, not to mention ordinary people.

After this cannon sound, the cavalry froze, and all the ships on the river did not dare to move.

The Liangshan battleship has already adjusted its hull, one after another, several guns erupted firearms in turn, and one shell after another hit the water village.
