Chapter 681
: That's your own person
The sea breeze was soft at this time, but in the eyes of the Song Dynasty navy, the enemy warships were rushing towards us quickly. The sailors looked at the strange ships and were hesitant in their hearts. If those big ships with soft sails could be called "fast", those ships could be called "fast".
"What is that?"
"Mazu bless me, I have never seen that weird thing before, I run so fast..."
The sailors on the Song boat were talking, and they had been roaming on the sea for a long time, and were very surprised at the speed of the boat coming.
Listening to the conversations of the sailors, he felt that his position was a little uneasy. General Song, who was going to sea with the purpose of making money, was already scared when facing such a blow.
At first, those big clutches had already made him quite frustrated, and his ship would not catch up tomorrow. And he was sure that those merchants from the Song Dynasty who were doing some illegal business. If they could catch up, they would definitely make a big profit.
"They...what is that?"
Although he had to show his majesty at this moment, at least in front of the sailors, he didn't want to show that he was already scared by the strange ship. But when he saw a group of strange ships that tied him and his warship together, his heart hung up.
"Bow and arrow ready..."
The person who spoke was his deputy general, Wen Xiang, who was called the Dragon on the Sea. At this moment, he stared at the boat approaching. He covered the sunlight on his forehead with his hands and carefully identified the appearance of the strange boat.
Just as he set up a canopy in his hand and looked at the approaching strange ships. At about 800 meters, the opponent's warship launched the first wave of attacks. In the sky near the strange ship, a tongue of flames sprayed backward appeared without any warning. He tightened it and dragged the flames and quickly approached at a speed that was almost impossible to chase.
"What is that, is that their firearm?"
Wen Xiang stared at the light spot, and attacking at such a long distance was unimaginable in the eyes of the sailors of the Great Song Dynasty. Although they also had rockets and the so-called "thunderbolt cannons" equipped with gunpowder, there was absolutely no fire at 800 meters away. Even rockets using crossbows would be difficult to hit the target 150 meters away.
"boom……"
In their surprised eyes, the flame-shaped shells were quickly passing through the sky, forming a long parabolic arc. The shells that had no target exploded on the sea, creating a high white column of water.
This was also Zhang Qing's warning attack. He did not intend to really drive these warships of the Song Dynasty navy to the bottom of the sea. Because as Zhao Fubo's subordinate, he knew that he was a people-oriented His Highness, which can be seen from the provisions of the "Rose of Mountain Military Order".
"The people are the most important, the country is the next, and the king is the least important!"
In the "Rushan Military Order", this is the standard for acting in a contingent manner. That is, there is no order, but when facing special circumstances, the standard for dealing with problems. In the prosecution of the report on the war action, whether the officer's order complies with the standards in the "Rushan Military Order" is an extremely important question.
Zhang Qing was sure that if it was a Fusang man or someone else, he would just approach him at this moment, and a bomb was right to hit the sea. But if it was a Song man, or the category of "Chinese people" in the Chinese Code, he would have to open it online. Unless they did not know the practice and continued to fight, he could not easily kill people's lives!
The explosion of shells had already shocked Wen Xiang as much as all sailors. He was even sure that if the fast thing that came came fell on the ship, the ship would have sunk only when it was seen.
"Hey, the flag he slapped is the flag of the Song people. Are they also an official army?"
At this time, the flag of the Yulin Navy fleet approaching the Song Dynasty was clearly visible. The huge flag was extended from the side by a flag. At this moment, it was fluttering in the wind, like a ball of jumping flames on the sea. They had never seen such a flag, but they knew that those who dared to fight such a flag were definitely not people who could be slaughtered.
Shocked by a shell, the navy general was already scared to enter the cabin. He could not imagine what would have been if the shell had fallen on the boat? As a coward who could only blackmail merchants, his reaction was already very brave.
However, Wen Xiang's reaction to him was just sneering. He knew in his heart that with such a cowardly commander, he would lose his life sooner or later. As a low-level officer, he was really helpless.
Du was the army organization in the Song Dynasty. Each of the troops was divided into 105 people, and 5 commands were set up as one battalion, with about 3,000 people. In terms of naval army organization, it is similar to infantry. The difference is that the equipment troops such as artillery, bed crossbows, stone throwing machines, etc. are standardized, with a total of 200 people in one command.
The navy where Wen Xiang was located was originally organized according to this. Today's 20 ships belonged to 5 commanders, but today they were for the purpose of seeking wealth at sea, so the person who came was actually the 5 commanders' immediate bosses - the commander. That is, the guy who just got into the cabin probably wanted to take it alone.
"Wendu Head, the enemy enters the range of the rocket. Will it attack the enemy?"
Wen Xiang was quite considerate. At this moment, the other party fired a shot. Can he attack? Unfortunately, he was just the head, but he did not have the ability to decide the way of acting in the entire fleet.
Just as Wen Xiang was considering it, the boat opposite him shouted in unison, and the sound was completely Chinese.
"Stop sailing and stop the ship, and be inspected. We are the Qiansu Navy of King Ji! The ship in front of us will surrender sailing, otherwise we will open fire and attack..."
"Why, it's our own people, then why are they...?"
The officers and soldiers of the Navy of the Song Dynasty asked each other one by one, but the general who had already entered the cabin and stopped showing up again no longer spoke, and no one had any intention of firing. This also included Wen Xiang. If he had misunderstandings because of his order, then he would not have enough to cut his head.
Listening to the shouts from the other side, Wen Xiang observed the other party more carefully. Although the other party was already in the range at this time, the 20 Song ships may not be able to fight. But he was just a head, and these things could not be decided by himself. Facing the fearful and inquiring gazes of the sailors and the lower-level officers, Wen Xiang smiled bitterly.
"Get off the sail, hurry up, go in and tell sir, it's the Qiansui navy of King Ji Wang who has arrived!"
Looking at the approaching enemy ship, Wen Xiang reminded him again.
