AD 1042

9. Bloody Battle of the Little Hills I

Lonely soul, swinging with the wind, tears breaking the sword, sad heart,

In ancient times, thousands of troops and horses,

Who is the craziest?

Who dares to break in, who is the king!!

September 16, Guzhou Lushi.

The sky is clear and cloudless. The green grassland extends from the foot of Lu's city to the hills in the distance. Two days ago, a group of Song soldiers passed by here. They carried the prey caught from the forest and happily passed by and returned to the camp.

Now, there is a group of horse thieves lurking. The leader is Zhang Hai, who is known for his amazing agility and bravery. He quietly lies in the grass with small red flowers and looks at the Song army camp not far away. It seems that they have been prepared for a long time. The camp is surrounded by fences, pits, horses, and even the watchtowers are built. There are a lot of soldiers, and there are more than a dozen patrols on the periphery. If there is a frontal conflict, they will be found as soon as they appear, and they will be severely hit, and even be killed and injured.

Fortunately, his adoptive father had already expected it. Zhang Hai thought, and he said that it was better to wait. It is estimated that one more hour, the marble monks and they should also go to Sanlipo. In this way, the two wings are in place. The three sisters are also approaching from the north. As soon as the east wind of the adoptive father arrives, the ambush on the three sides will kill the Song army together. Yingzhai, a big deal can be done!

The sun shines on the earth, warm as spring. The river flows quietly from the shore. Several Song soldiers are sitting by the river and fishing. When they raise their faces and laughing, they see a little white sail on the water in the distance. The familiar white sail is very fast. Because it is going along the water and the speed is very fast, they drive out of the rapid gorge in the blink of an eye. The valley entered the open and gentle water.

A huge apricot yellow flag was inserted on the big white sailboat, hunting against the wind. The five-clawed golden dragon in the flag danced with the wind, as if it were going to fly to the sky.

Needless to say, they knew at a glance that it was a heavy ship. They happily threw the fishing rod in their hands, stood up and ran towards the water, and then waved their hands desperately and shouted.

"Damn it, why did you come here? We are starving to death"

"It's good to come, it's good to come, come to the shore, come to the shore, we're here"

"Ah ha ha ha, I'm finally here. I've had a drink this time."

"Fuck, it's a good time to come. You're here looking at the fishing rod. I'll go back and tell you."

......

The big ship is approaching, getting closer and closer, and you can clearly see the lookout of the opposite ship climbing on the mast. They are waving excitedly.

"Old man, there are so many boats on the shore that I can't aim." A Han, dressed in Song's military armor, stood anxiously behind Guo Mio Mountain and said.

"Stabilize your mind and continue to aim!" Guo Mioshan held the hilt of the sword in his hand, and the red cloak was raised in the wind, which was very similar to the old general Yang Ye more than a decade ago, at least he looked very similar.

Soon, on the side of the side of the ship, a very hole in the muzzle was stretched out. The three people who operated the gun nervously hid under a huge ripe cowhide, staring at the Song army camp on the shore, calculating the best time and angle to fire.

Although the ripe cowhide bulge is very high and conspicuous, no one doubts that there are deadly weapons hidden there. At least those innocent Song soldiers have never doubted it at all. They really think it is their own people!

The air is getting hotter and hotter, and the uneasiness and restlessness are intertwined in Guo Miaoshan's heart torment him. It's almost time to burn incense. Seeing that the big ship is about to sail to the opposite of the Song army, if you don't dock, you will be seen the flaws. Where is the opportunity?

Maybe the miracles in war always appear at the last minute. Just like a woman, the more you look forward to her presence, the farther away you are from her, the more you can't be. When you no longer have any illusions about her, even at the most unlikely time or place , she will come to the door.

Suddenly, a bird flew in the sky.

The sun became hot in an instant. Everyone on the boat held their breath and pinched the sweat in the palm of their hands.

With a flash of light, the opportunity finally appeared. There was a large enough gap between the two large ships on the other side, facing the middle barracks of the Song army.

Guo Mioshan suddenly pulled out the sword around his waist, pointed to the other side, and shouted, "That's it, fire!"

With an order, the gunner, who had been trained for two days, quickly loaded and aimed, and instantly pulled the fire rope.

With a loud noise, the big boat shook violently, and the bow was suddenly filled with gunpowder smoke, and even the cooked cowhide caught fire.

The person hiding in the cabin was thrown around, and Guo Miaoshan was not spared. He fell from one side of the ship to the other side. If A Han hadn't dragged him, the old man would have fallen into the water. Even so, there were several people who fell into the water.

At the same time, after listening to his subordinates, Zhang Hong thought that the heavy ship had really arrived. He hurriedly left the tent with his helmet and armor and planned to meet him on the shore. Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the tent, a cannonball dragged its tail in and passed by him.

"What the hell is it?" Zhang Hong was stunned and thought it was a thunderstorming stone in the air.

However, in the blink of an eye, the tent behind him exploded into the sky with a bang. Then, a powerful air wave hit and rushed to all directions in an instant, shaking Zhang Hong out.

When the smoke dissipated, a huge bullet pit appeared in the Song army camp on the shore, two feet deep and three feet wide. Within a radius of 20 steps, it was a mess and howling everywhere. Many Song troops were blown to pieces, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.

"What the hell is going on? What's the matter?" Such a big event happened in the Chinese barracks. More than a dozen lieutenants rushed to the site of the accident. Just as they were puzzled, the big ship on the water fired another shot.

Another loud noise, and the hull of the ship suddenly shook, but with the last lesson, the people on the ship did not have any abnormal situation. Guo Miaoshan grabbed the port of the ship and stared at the Song army camp, saying why it didn't explode.

In fact, this shot was missed, so he quickly shouted, "load, load it quickly, fire another shot, and smash the watchtower in the west!"

After a while, the three smoky gunners were ready to launch. As soon as Guo Mioshan released, the artillery suddenly spewed out an angry flame.

With a loud noise, the camp in the west of the Song army exploded. Many soldiers were hit to the ground and killed by shell fragments in panic. Even the watchtower was blown off one leg, and soon fell to one side and flattened several tents.

"Damn, don't panic, don't panic, line up quickly, line up for me"

The chief officer of the Song army shouted loudly in the barracks, trying to reorganize those panicked men and prepare for the opportunity to find the enemy to fight. However, he forgot that the musket formation he had learned in Bianliang and that there was a weapon called artillery in the siege equipment of the Song army.

"Team up, line up!"

After half a column of incense,

Under the shouting of the 300 French troops in the battalion, the Chinese army began to array spontaneously inside and outside the tent. Many Song soldiers cheered up, took knives and guns, and rushed outside the door.

At this time, the fierce battle on the water also began.

Guo Mioshan's big ship fired three cannons in a row, which had long attracted the attention of the Song army in the opposite ship. The Song army gunner stationed on the shore immediately boarded the ship and fired back. For a moment, it was like rain. Guo Yushan's big ship was beaten to pieces and sawdust flying.

Many people hid behind your wall and gasped for fear. A few people kept raising their guns to fight back and shooting randomly.

The projectile above his head flew across, and the wind was gusty. Guo Mioshan could not get up and command at all, so he had to order the gunner in the bow to fire at the opposite ship and shoot at will.

In an instant, the Song army warship on the shore was hit by a fire. The one closest to Guo Miaoshan suffered the first. It was hit by a shell directly below the left side of the ship's side. After the violent explosion, the big ship instantly turned into two sections and fell into the water. Many Song soldiers fell into the water and swam desperately to the shore.

The sound of gunfire on the shore rumbles...
