Annan's army came and drove over in a mighty manner.
In terms of its momentum alone, it is like a giant crab in the Southern Ocean. No matter how you look at it, it exudes a arrogant and overbearing aura.
However, after launching the landing operation, they became cautious.
In terms of offense, they did not rush forward as expected, but divided into vertical batches, advancing layer by layer first and then later.
It can be seen that Annan Army has done a lot of preview exercises for this.
Seeing that they had fallen into the trap, a general couldn't help but stepped forward and asked: Mr. Qi, do you want to start a fight?
Qi Yu pressed his hand and gave instructions: Don't be impatient yet, hold on steady! After all the enemy's front and rear columns have entered the encirclement, it will not be too late to launch encirclement and annihilation.
However, his strategy is a bit avoiding strengths and exploiting weaknesses, and it even comes with some risks.
How do you say this?
You must know that firearms are offensive long-range weapons. If the distance is too close, it will only increase the risk of hand-to-hand combat. However, the enemy has stretched out vertically, and if our own side does not adjust its strategy in time, it will be difficult to cover all of it with firepower.
If you want to eat your opponent alive, you have to be brave.
"Well, the distance is good, let's fire right away!"
"yes!"
boom! boom! boom!
Following Qi Yu's order, land-based artillery began intensive bombardment. The movements are coherent and flowing, without pauses or lags.
This is the benefit of the exercise. Although the process is time-consuming and expensive, it can cultivate very skilled combat skills, which is very important for actual combat.
Let’s talk about the current battle situation first.
The first wave of bombardment by the Qiong Army was very effective, boosting the morale of the entire army.
Taking advantage of the situation, Qi Yu decisively ordered: "The army will defeat the enemy from the front, and the ambush navy will immediately launch an outflank from behind. It is necessary to cut off the enemy's water retreat so that they cannot escape!"
"Yes, sir!"
We will not discuss the naval arrangements for the time being, but will only talk about the land battle situation for now.
The Qiongzhou Army, which had taken the lead, instead of slowing down its offensive pace, showed greater oppression. Waves of intensive bombardment were like migratory locusts all over the sky, covering the tortured Annan army in a swooping manner.
The attack power of the shotgun improved by Xiaotong is very powerful. Although it cannot achieve the expected terrifying effect of 'beating it into a sieve', it is still very refreshing.
But they saw: mourning victims were everywhere, corpses were piled up in piles, and their condition was too horrific to be seen.
It wasn't until this moment that Annan's army finally came to its senses and clearly realized that they had been ambushed this time!
The current situation is unclear and it is not advisable to be aggressive. Therefore, withdrawing troops is the best option.
At the command of Annan's leader, his sergeants changed their direction and moved towards the shore, hoping to board the ship and escape.
Their idea was good, but it backfired.
In the distance, a group of mighty warships suddenly appeared on the sea. They spread out horizontally and lined up on the sea, showing a strong posture that meant encirclement.
this……
I beg An Nanjun for his psychological shadow at this moment.
In this way, the escape route will be strangled.
Now that our lives are hanging by a thread, where should we go?
It seems that all we can do is give it a try!
Annan led the army and found that the number of Qiong's troops was significantly smaller than his own. If they attacked with all their strength, they might not have a chance of winning.
This is common sense in military affairs. Any general would think so.
As a result, the Annan Army immediately changed its strategy, turned the direction of the troops again, and instead launched a fierce attack on the Qiong Army on land.
You attack?
Then I'll keep it!
Not only must we defend, but we must also make a sharp counterattack!
oh? What kind of sharp method is it?
Naturally, this is the first performance of the new weapons of the Qiongfu Army.
One is a land-based small artillery piece, and the other is a manual pulley crossbow.
These two things really lived up to expectations. They got off to a good start as soon as they debuted on stage.
The small artillery is flexible and has a fast firing rate, making it very suitable for attacking land targets. The pulley crossbow can make up for the time gap between musket reloading and keep the killing rhythm consistent.
Artillery, muskets, and pulley crossbows respectively correspond to strikes in the three dimensions of far, medium, and near. Cooperate with each other and complement each other.
Under this sharp counterattack, Annan's army suffered heavy casualties.
However, their number was nearly three times that of Qiong's army. Even if they fought hard to kill them, they would not be able to kill them all in a short period of time. Soon, some brave men who were not afraid of death broke through the line of fire and approached the trenches of the Qiong Army.
In close combat, only hand-to-hand combat is possible.
At this moment, Haitao, who had been lying in the trench, suddenly stepped forward and shouted: "Brothers! Pull out your swords quickly and kill the enemy side by side with me!"
"Yes! Go ahead!"
All of a sudden!
The sound of killing turned into thunder! The blood turned into rain!
The breath is filled with the smell of blood, and there are piles of broken arms and limbs in front of the trench!
At this point, the war has entered a white-hot stage.
Qi Yu suppressed his surging heart and held up his telescope to look into the distance.
As he watched, he felt a strange sense of confusion.
how do I say this?
Let's put it this way, although Qi Dalang is a calligrapher who does not practice martial arts, but under the influence of Tong Yanhuo over the years, he has also become familiar with some common martial arts positions.
The more he looked, the more he felt that Haitao's body seemed to contain Tong Yanhuo's martial arts heritage.
But!
During Brother Tong's lifetime, he only accepted his daughter as an apprentice, and had no other direct descendants except her. If this was the case, where did Haitao's inheritance come from?
How strange!
However, now is not the time to think about these trivial matters, the war must be the priority.
Back to the present.
After this fierce and fierce battle, the stalemate situation began to become clearer.
The Qiongzhou defenders, who had the advantage of the right time, location and weapons, completely suppressed the Annan Army's attack.
The latter also began to lose confidence after repeated attacks and defeats. From the initial majestic momentum, it turned into a frustrated scurry.
Well, we can close the network!
According to Qi Yu's original plan, all intruders must be killed. However, if anyone is willing to surrender, we can accept it.
A humanitarian attitude is still indispensable.
In addition, the ships brought by the Annan army must also be used for their own use. If it weren't for this reason, Qi Yu would have ordered the sinking of the enemy ships on the shore.
Waste is shameful, saving is glorious.
Although the enemy's ships are a bit old, they can still hold up for daily cruises.
In this battle, not only do you have to catch turtles, but you also have to not let go of any shrimps!
"Okay, get ready to close the net!"
"Yes! Sir!"
Just when Qi Yu relaxed his vigilance and was about to start the next step to persuade him to surrender, suddenly, something unexpected happened!
