"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 641
The Qinghe army's shouting shook the morale and morale of the soldiers defending the city from the Southern Army of Hancheng Port to a certain extent.
Although Hong Bo, the former general of the southern army and navy, has been away for many years, the stories of the various water bandits he once led to fight are widely spread.
At the beginning, Hong Bo was expelled from the Southern Army Navy, and many officers and soldiers complained about it.
Now Hong Bo, the once brave general, has returned, and has transformed into the banner commander of the Qinghe Army.
For the defenders of Cold City Port, Hong Bo's return and change of status are undoubtedly a huge shock.
Many officers sympathized with Hong Bo's experience, and knew that he could fight. Now seeing him come back, they naturally felt a little more afraid.
After all, under the shadow of a famous tree, Hong Bo was considered a brave general in the Southern Army and Navy back then.
Although the ordinary soldiers had never seen Hong Bo, they had heard of his name, so while they were terrified, they talked a lot.
"Silence, silence!"
Seeing the panicked expressions on the faces of the soldiers of the Southern Army, there was some restlessness, which made the vice general of the Navy also look down.
"Don't be fooled by them, Hong Bo wants to be a thief, do you want to be a thief too? Think about your family, do you want them to be implicated too?!"
Seeing that the morale of the soldiers was unstable, the deputy general of the Southern Army also stood up in time to stabilize the morale of the soldiers.
"Brothers, the bandit army kills without blinking an eye. They and the water bandits are vicious and vicious. Don't be fooled by them!"
"We just fell for their trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain. General Ye is not dead!"
"As long as General Ye leads the fleet to fight back, the bandit army will be wiped out!"
The senior officers of the Southern Army also shouted and began to stabilize the soldiers' emotions.
The soldiers were panicked at first, but after hearing what the officers said, their agitation quickly subsided.
"Prepare for the battle, those who kill bandits and water bandits will be rewarded!"
"Whoever captures and kills the traitor Hong Bo will be promoted two ranks!"
Under the yelling of the deputy general of the defenders of the Southern Army, the morale of the defenders in Hanchenggang began to gradually rise.
Hong Bo sent people to call out to Hancheng Port, also wanting to defeat others without fighting, and at the same time prepare for the attack.
Now seeing that they were not willing to surrender, but were actively preparing to fight, he also recalled the brothers who persuaded him to surrender, and prepared to fight.
"Ready to attack!"
After Hong Bo gave an order, the messenger quickly raised the banner of attack.
More than a dozen ships slowly sailed out of the team and approached the Hancheng Port Wharf.
"Hmph, I'm so overwhelmed!"
Seeing that the Qinghe Army only dispatched more than a dozen ships, the Southern Army garrison officer at the Hancheng Port Wharf couldn't help but snort coldly.
But in the next moment, he opened his eyes wide, staring at the things on the other party's boat without taking his eyes off it.
"What it is?"
Seeing the things Qinghe Army soldiers were playing with, the southern army defender couldn't help asking the surrounding soldiers.
The surrounding Southern Army soldiers also shook their heads one after another, wondering what the Qinghe Army was up to.
In fact, these dozen or so ships were all equipped with small trebuchets, which Chen Zi'ang ordered the No. 1 Armory Factory to scale down and build for warships.
Generally, such trebuchets are installed on large ships with more than 3,000 raw materials, but now the Qinghe army navy ships are not big enough, so they can only use them.
Because fighting on water is not as good as fighting on land, these trebuchets are all miniature versions, and the stone bombs are also much smaller.
"Two-shot calibration!"
"Launch!"
When the soldiers of the Southern Army Navy were still confused, the Qinghe Army trebuchets installed on the ships had already started test firing.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Two trebuchets fired stone bullets at the same time, and the stone bullets smashed towards the Hancheng Port wharf with a shrill sound of piercing the air.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Two stone bombs hit the house on the pier, and immediately smashed the house into two holes, and the masonry splashed. Several Southern Army soldiers around were hit by the splashing masonry and fell down screaming.
"It's a trebuchet!"
At the head of Hancheng Port, seeing that the Qinghe Army installed a trebuchet on the ship, the deputy general of the Southern Army also took a deep breath.?
Naturally, they also know about trebuchets, but the southern army has not fought all year round, so many weapons and equipment have gradually become useless.
In the past, there were weapons such as trebuchets in their warehouses, but they were in disrepair for a long time and could not be used for a long time. Now they have become a pile of rotten wood.
What's more, their navy fleet faced water bandits with only small boats. Arrows were enough, and there was no need to install trebuchets.
Now the Qinghe army fired at them directly from the ship with trebuchets, which surprised the deputy general of the Southern Army Navy and realized that this battle was not easy to fight.
Sure enough, after a short while, the roaring stone bombs smashed towards the wharf of Hancheng Port.
Although the weight of the stone bomb has been reduced a lot and its lethality has been greatly reduced, it is still very deterrent.
Facing the stone bullets that hit their heads and faces, many soldiers of the southern army and navy were unable to dodge in time, and their heads burst open immediately, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.
Seeing the tragic situation of their companions, the rest of the soldiers of the Southern Army and Navy were so frightened that their souls froze, and they ran away one by one with their heads in their hands.
For a while, the rumbling sound continued, and the houses and buildings on the pier were continuously smashed. In the smoke and dust, the soldiers of the Southern Army fled in panic and panic.
While the soldiers of the Southern Army were dodging the stone bombs in a panic, Hong Bo, the commander of the 19th Banner of the Qinghe Army, issued a new order.
"Brothers, kill!"
Seeing the flag waving, the boats of the water bandits, who had already sharpened their knives, rushed towards the pier like arrows off the string.
The water bandits got a lot of bounties in the last battle, so they also tasted the sweetness.
So as long as they can kill the heads of the soldiers of the Southern Army and Navy, they can continue to exchange for bounties.
Therefore, they didn't need anyone to encourage them, and they scrambled towards the pier of Hancheng Port.
"Let the arrow, let the arrow!"
Seeing a large number of water bandits flying by by boat, the guard officer at the wharf in Hancheng Port hastily ordered to shoot arrows to stop them.
"Boom!"
But as soon as his voice fell, he was hit in the body by a stone bullet, and then flew upside down in a strange posture, and smashed hard into a mud pond. His life and death are unknown.
Some Southern Army sailors drew their bowstrings and released arrows, but the arrows that lost their organization were scattered, and did not cause much casualties to the approaching water bandits.
On the contrary, the water bandits licked blood all the year round, and their arrows were so ruthless and accurate that many soldiers of the Southern Army fell under their arrows.
Without waiting for the ship to stabilize, many water bandits with knives in their hands jumped onto the pier and rushed towards the soldiers of the Southern Army Navy.
"Clang!"
"Puff!"
"ah!"
The collision of swords and swords made the sound of gold and iron clanging, and the panicked Southern Army and Navy soldiers were passively defended, and were quickly thrown to the ground amidst the splashing blood.
These water bandits rushed forward with fierce faces, and the soldiers of the Southern Army Navy were cut down before they recovered from the stone bomb attack, and there was chaos on the pier for a while.
