Chapter 374
The more Zhao Bing saw Zhang Shijie's routine, the more he was like a delaying plan. He wanted to exchange time for space. With this "unbreakable" water fortress, he dragged Zhang Hongfan to death.?? �
It would be wrong to say that no reinforcements came. After learning that the Song and Yuan armies started the war in Yashan, some volunteers and sea gangsters came to serve the king one after another, and there were quite a few people. According to Zhao Bing, there were a large number of warships with tens of thousands of people. However, their ships were all "Wuyan Ship" used for fishing. This is a small ship that can carry more than ten people at most. The weapons are only living tools such as harpoons, pu kands and rags. They are not trained, loosely organized, and extremely limited in combat power.
Zhang Shijie may not have expected these people, but just arranged them in the north of the water village to protect the water and pick the woodcut road, and even the village was not allowed to enter. The volunteers cruised around the water village in the daytime and moored on the shore at night. The momentum was quite strong, but the effect on the change of the situation was limited. The boats of these people were small and the materials carried by the materials were poor, and they had poor self-sustainment. If they could not get supplements from the court, they would probably retreat faster than the Yuan army. Everyone should not go hungry to fight! Therefore, Zhao Bing thought that without strong foreign aid and had no plan to break the blockade, he thought that Zhang Shijie's strategy was a dream after all, and would still go to the old path that was destroyed in history.
Sure enough, with the addition of more than 200 warships of Zhang Hongfan's fleet and Li Heng's fleet, the enemy's strength increased greatly. They moved from the moors outside the sea into the Yamen, confronting the Song army about three miles away. The lights on both sides were visible, and the drums were heard. The waterways from the south to the outer sea were completely blocked. It can be said that the board of ships was difficult to get out of the nose of the Yuan army. Now there are more than 600 warships of large and small ships with more than 40,000 soldiers. Although they are still at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, the pressure on the Song army is huge, which has caused panic among the soldiers...
"Your Majesty, it seems that the enemy's commander is going to kill people!" Since the enemy entered the cliff gate, Zhao Bing spent more time watching the enemy situation on the deck of the cabin. Although he couldn't understand the enemy's formation very well, he had a stupid way. He would record the number and orientation of the enemy warships every day to understand the changes in the enemy situation and speculate on the direction of his steps. At this time, Zheng Yong reported.
"Oh, who was the one who killed?" Zhao Bing asked casually. These days, the Song army was also caught by the Yuan army while fighting or fleeing, so they killed and intimidated the Song army. This is no longer a new thing.
"Your Majesty, you're like a Mongolian today!" Zheng Yong replied after looking carefully.
"Let a certain family see, is it rare for Mongolians to kill Mongolians?" Liu Shiyong, who was accompanying him, came over to snatch Zheng Yong's telescope and look over.
"Your Majesty, look..." Zheng Yong couldn't see anything at such a long distance, and shouted angrily.
"For you, use my!" Zhao Bing signaled Wang De to hand his telescope to him. He felt that the relationship between people in the world was very wonderful, and there was a saying that he had forgotten his age. In the past, he could talk to Yingjieyan, Jiang Wanzai, and even Liu Fu. They would not treat themselves as children, but would take their opinions seriously, discuss issues and find solutions together. However, he had been in contact with 6 Xiufu and others for a long time, but he couldn't find that feeling, but he fell in love with Liu Shiyong, a martial artist. In a few days, the "feeling" between the two continued to heat up. He felt that if this continued, he would have to be like Guo Jing and the old naughty boy.
"The one who tied up is really a Mongolian. She seems to be a commander and a very good official!" Liu Shiyong made a statement while watching, just like the live broadcast now, which attracted everyone on the boat to look over there, but how could they see clearly.
"Wow, kill me, I'll hit my head with one knife!" Zheng Yong shouted excitedly. The onlookers felt relieved, some shouted ok, some clapped and stamped their feet, as if they had killed the enemy general.
"Hey, why did you hang your head on the mast?" Liu Shiyong murmured. In the past, the Yuan army killed people and threw the body into the sea after killing people. The treatment of hanging the head on the mast was not a general of the Song army, but also at the control level.
"It's broken!" Zhao Bing said with a tight expression after hearing this.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong!" Zheng Yong quickly turned around and asked.
"Zhang Hongfan is killing people to establish his authority and pursuing military discipline. I am afraid the real war will begin!" Zhao Bing glanced at everyone and said.
"What Your Majesty said is reasonable. Before the war, the commander would often find a reason to kill a few unlucky people who disobeyed the commander and disobeyed military discipline to shock the entire army. Zhang Hongfan was a Han Chinese. Those Mongols were inevitably domineering and refused to obey the orders. Moreover, the enemy came from the two armies and inevitably had a disagreement. He slashed a commander with one sword. Who would dare to disobey him?" Liu Shiyong nodded and said in a deep opinion.
‘Dong, dongdong, dongdongdong…’
‘Woooooooooooo…’ As he spoke, the sound of war drums on the opposite side became tighter, and the long horn sounded throughout the sea and air. Zhao Bing couldn't sit still. He jumped up and snatched the telescope from Zheng Yong's hand and looked south. He saw warships in the enemy formation lifting their sails, raised their oars and rushed towards the Song army.
"General Liu, is the situation a little wrong?" Zhao Bing seemed to have obviously divided into two teams, one of which was a large and medium-sized warship and the other was a small warship, all of which were coming to the Song army camp.
"Well, it's a bit strange. In theory, if the enemy wants to attack our water camp, he should take the enemy first with a large ship so that he can break the water camp and then use a small boat to break into the formation and wait for an opportunity to board the ship. Why are they the two teams together?" Liu Shiyong also narrowed his eyes and looked at the battlefield and said.
"No, the enemy wants to cut off our water-drawing and woodcutting road, and their big ship is a feint attack." Liu Shiyong's words made Zhao Bing confirm his judgment. Zhang Hongfan was not going to fight this time, but still wanted to force the Song army to surrender through siege, or weaken his combat effectiveness.
