From the first thunder-like sound, the entire Jinjun navy camp seemed to be waking up from a dream, with no idea what was happening.
It happened that at this time, more than a hundred craftsmen hidden in the naval camp spontaneously set fire to military tents, houses and other objects at different locations. For a while, flames broke out in the military camp.
Then they screamed loudly at the top of their lungs.
"The thieves are coming! The thieves are coming!!"
She screamed in pain, screamed in a heart-breaking manner, and screamed as if her family members were dying in front of her and she was powerless to do anything.
The Jin soldiers, craftsmen and civilian officials who had just woken up from their sleep were frightened when they saw a fire in the army, heard the roar of gunpowder explosions, and heard someone shouting "The bandit army is coming". His soul was so distraught that he scattered and fled for his life.
Some were wearing shoes but no trousers, some were wearing trousers but no shoes, some were not wearing any clothes, and some were just wearing leggings, shirtless and running away in all directions.
To be honest, even professional soldiers cannot handle this situation well. If they are not careful, they will directly enter the camp roaring state. The reason why the craftsmen-dominated camp can not kill each other is because they have no weapons in their hands.
They simply cannot be expected to maintain order and stability.
As a result, the order of the entire camp collapsed instantly, and there was a huge chaos that was no less than the roar of the camp.
Yingxiao is a sharp sword hanging over the head of the commander in the ancient military camp. The reason comes from the strict superiority and inferiority system and the rough method of commanding troops.
The system of superiority and inferiority and the rough method of commanding troops give officers absolute power of life and death over soldiers. Commanding troops relies on power, oppression, and fear. This makes soldiers face huge pressure to survive and are frightened after entering the military camp. , be cautious.
This situation becomes more obvious the closer to the battlefield. Soldiers not only have to deal with life dangers from the enemy, but also from life threats within their own people.
In this state, the soldier's nerves will be tense and enter a critical state. If he is not careful, even a scream caused by a soldier's nightmare after nightfall will cause the soldier's nerves to collapse and cause The camp howls.
Once a camp roar occurs, it cannot be easily stopped by human power.
At this moment, the small warships of the Liberation Army Navy had rushed into the water camp, and threw the fire starters prepared on the ship onto the Jin Army warships, causing a fierce fire, one by one, and one by one. burning.
The crossbowmen on the warships held crossbows and stared at the scattered golden men. When they saw one, they shot an arrow at them. With a whoosh, the crossbow arrow cut through the air and hit the golden man. The golden man fell down and died inexplicably. I don’t even know whose hands I died in.
The navy warships set fire to the water camp of the Jin Army and killed all directions. The Jin soldiers were killed crying like ghosts and wolves, and the camps on the shore also fell into chaos because of the fire.
This chaos directly caused a large number of craftsmen and officials to flee outside the camp. They pushed and trampled on each other. Even though the Liberation Army did not attack at all, it caused quite serious casualties. Many people were trampled to death on the ground. .
More people ran all the way out of the camp, trying to escape with their lives, but as soon as they escaped from the camp, before they could take a breath, five hundred cavalry from the Liberation Army arrived and killed them.
Five hundred cavalry roared in and rushed over to block them. They surrounded them everywhere, trying to stop more and capture more.
Forced by the cavalry, the crowd who escaped from the military camp became even more confused. They pushed each other and fled like headless flies. They screamed and screamed again and again.
The whole scene was extremely chaotic.
Xu Wen was awakened from his sleep by the thunderous sound of gunpowder explosions.
The soldier's intuition led him to quickly get up and put on simple armor, then took the weapon out of the military tent and joined his soldiers. Then he found that there were fires everywhere in the military camp, and a large number of craftsmen, guards, and officials were screaming and running away.
The military camp has entered a state of bombing.
"Commander, something serious has happened, what should we do?"
His soldiers asked him anxiously.
Xu Wen saw that the situation was irreversible, even uncontrollable, and encountered unknown dangers. Staying here would be a dead end, so he decisively decided to lead his soldiers to fight and retreat, leave the camp, and wait until they were in a safe place.
At this time, saving your life is most important.
In desperation, their horses could not be found. Dozens of soldiers could only protect Xu Wen and rushed out of the military camp. On the way, they encountered craftsmen and rebel soldiers who were attacking. They basically lost their minds and could not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. The soldiers slashed with swords and cut a bloody path for Xu Wen.
When Xu Wen finally broke out of the camp, he ran directly into the Liberation Army cavalry who was blocking the fleeing crowd.
Dozens of cavalrymen discovered Xu Wen's troops who were surrounded by sharp swords. They immediately realized that it was a big fish and mounted their horses to attack.
Without shields and a complete military formation, no matter how brave Xu Wen's soldiers were, they could not resist the cavalry. They were killed by the cavalry of the Liberation Army. Xu Wen himself resisted and was cut off by a cavalry of the Liberation Army. Arms, fell to the ground and didn't get up.
Su Baoheng was even more unlucky. Under the protection of his personal guards, he tried to stay away from the military camp. As a result, he ran into a large number of people and fled desperately.
The guards tried their best to protect Su Baoheng, but they were unable to do anything. They pushed and shoved Su Baoheng, and he was pushed to the ground, and countless feet trampled away from his body.
Su Baoheng's screams were quickly covered up by the shouts of the crowd. By the time the surviving guards found Su Baoheng, Su Baoheng had become a horrible corpse.
The entire navy attack lasted about an hour and a half. The Jin army, which had been formed but had not yet been completed, was completely wiped out.
Sun Tzu Yi rescued more than 180 warships in the raging fire, which directly more than doubled the size of the Liberation Army's navy.
A large number of navy soldiers also came ashore to capture prisoners and grab supplies.
The materials here are mainly wood, cloth, finished iron and water warfare ordnance. They are basically piled up into mountains. Sun Tzu Yi is dazzled by the sight.
Combined with the cavalry who had previously blocked the people, more than 6,000 people were captured in the entire operation.
Countless supplies that were not burned were also snatched, but since there were few of them, they had no time to carry them, so they forced the prisoners to carry them onto the ship together.
Because time was tight, the operation to rush to transport supplies was actually more exciting and exciting than the operation to attack Shuiying. Even Sun Ziyi personally joined the team to transport supplies. He hated himself for not having more legs and hands so that he could Use higher efficiency to transport supplies.
When the supplies were almost loaded, Sun Ziyi wanted to continue loading them. It was not until his subordinates grabbed him hard and told him that no one could take them away anymore that he regretfully stopped rushing to transport them.
Next, with a wave of his hand, he executed the captured Jin soldiers and officials on the spot, released all the civilians, and took all the craftsmen away on ships.
The remaining supplies that couldn't be taken away were poured with oil and burned. Anyway, I couldn't take away the gold thieves.
If you can destroy something, it's a point. If you can consume his strength, it's a point.
After implementing the CD policy, Sun Tzu Yi left with the heavy fruits of victory.
The entire rush operation lasted until early afternoon.
During this period, only a Jin army of about 500 people approached the scene of the incident. They were defeated by the cavalry used as a warning force, killing more than 100 people, and the remaining Jin soldiers fled in panic.
When the cavalry were chasing them, they happened to encounter a logistics transport team of the Jin Army, which was here to transport food supplies. So they rode on horseback, killed one of them, turned their backs on their backs, and seized a batch of meat and food.
Sun Tzu Yi really didn't know when the person who reported the news would be able to bring the specific news to the center of the Jin Kingdom.
Of course, he didn't care. He only regretted that he brought too few ships and could not rescue more Jin Army warships. In the end, when he rushed to transport supplies, there was not enough space to take away more.
On the way back, Sun Tzu Yi could only sigh when he thought of the mountains of burned materials and the large number of craftsmen who had successfully escaped.
He stood on the deck and patted the railings all over, gritting his teeth and regretting why he didn't have more men and ships, otherwise he could have eaten up the Jin Army's camp in one bite!
So his whole body was in bad shape.
However, he still completed his first mission very beautifully since he became the commander of the navy, and he got off to a good start as soon as he took action, destroying the Jin Army's navy, which intuitively eliminated the possibility of the Jin Army rebuilding its navy within one or two years.
In this way, the sea area north of Shandong is dominated by the navy of the Liberation Army.
In the future, Su Yonglin can even use the navy to carry out beach landing operations and attack from multiple points along the long coastline to catch the Jin army by surprise.
Wan Yanliang will also be even more in a hurry, realizing that his six-state defense line is not secure. Su Yonglin can even use the navy to directly land in Daxing Mansion, and then threaten Zhongdu. From landing on the beach to attacking the city of Zhongdu, if he is fast, One day is enough.
The city of Zhongdu is tall, the moat is wide and deep, the number of defenders is sufficient, and the food reserves are sufficient. Even if the Liberation Army raises 100,000 troops to attack, if the people in the city do not make mistakes, it will be difficult for the Liberation Army to conquer Zhongdu.
However, Zhongdu City was the capital of the Jin Kingdom and the seat of the emperor. The emperor's seat was besieged by the bandits. How much this affected the morale of a country and the significance of political deterrence could not be explained by military offensives.
So no matter what, even if just a troop breaks into the outskirts of Zhongdu, it will be a devastating and terrifying situation for the courtiers in the city, and they will instantly get angry.
Su Yonglin felt that as long as this surprise attack was successful, Wan Yanliang would be more impatient and angry, and would inevitably make some stupid mistakes.
Even if he has a lot of money and a solid foundation, if he makes too many low-level mistakes, he will fall into an irreversible situation.
Wan Yanliang's advantage is gradually being wiped out, and Su Yonglin's strength is growing rapidly. Under the ebb and flow of one another, the outcome of this decisive battle that has yet to come has gradually become blurred.
