Although the entire Bohai Sea is calm, a tense battle is about to begin.

Tian Yu held his hands behind him, and this time he specially recruited the soldiers who had lost before to fill the gap, and then led a 30,000 troops to move forward in an emergency, trying to regain the island chain in one fell swoop.

Looking at the crowds of people on Nanchangshan Island, flags everywhere, and seven or eight swaths of smoke came out of the dense forests on the island, obviously making fires and making meals. The water level on the shore has also dropped significantly, and the Zhitiao Village was exposed to the shore, completely losing its resistance.

The only suspicious thing is that there are only more than twenty ships on the sea.

Tian Yu exclaimed: "Why are there only more than twenty ships?"

Immediately afterwards, Deng Zhong from the Mu Village beat the drums himself. The drums were called, and the three armies moved. The flying dragon boats anchored on the sea also sailed into the village.

Tian Pengzu was puzzled. There was an entrance to the water village in Nanchangshan Island. As long as it was opened from the side, the warship could enter the harbor on the island. He frowned and said, "Father, look, Yan Thief actually took all the boats into the island."

Twenty flying dragon boats entered the island. Tian Yu was puzzled at first, and then subconsciously realized: "The Yan thief must have lost the sea defense. We were ashamed of the island and walked onto the ground. We were already afraid and could not lure us into the attack again. Therefore, we drove the boat into the island and prepared to stay. If the warship fought with us at sea, the chance of victory was not great."

Tian Pengzu also subconsciously accepted this remark. The Yan army's warships were strange, and they were even a little faster than Meng Chong. They also had a sky-breaking crossbow with a very long range. However, after all, the number was small. Once surrounded by the Wei army's fleet, there was no way to survive.

The plan of sailing into the port, not sticking to the road, and defending the island chain seems to be a good choice.

In fact, this is also one of Deng Zhong's smoke bombs.

Liu Zhi took away seventy or eighty flying dragon boats, and the sea defense power of the island chain was greatly weakened, but the trip was intended to attack the coast of Qingzhou from a long way. If Tian Yu saw that there were only twenty boats on the water, he would have been suspicious and guessed that Liu Zhi led the main army to attack Qingzhou.

Deng Zhong deliberately waited until Tian Yu approached before he ordered the flying dragon boats on the sea to enter the port, causing Tian Yu's army to subconsciously make a mistake in judgment: the ships are all on the island.

Tian Pengzu said: "Father, if the Yan thief is so persistent, there are likely reinforcements coming."

"It shouldn't be possible,"

Tian Yu shook his head and said, "In recent years, my father has investigated the situation of Yan State from many sources. As for the navy, there are only a few thousand people. If we send a large army of support here, we will not be familiar with water warfare. What's the point of worrying?"

The two of them said one by one, and they believed even more that the Yan army hid all the warships on the South Island and prepared to stick to the island chain.

Tian Pengzu understood his father's meaning. Over the past few years, both sides have penetrated each other, inquired about military information, and understood each other's superficial information, especially the number of troops. If the Yan army believed that it was relied on reinforcements to rescue him, it would undoubtedly be defeated.

Tian Yu sneered, "I know that person. I heard that he was the son of Deng Ai, the general of Yan State. Deng Ai used his troops quite extraordinary, but unfortunately he surrendered to Yan State and did not get a wise ruler. Deng Ai used his troops quickly and would definitely defeat him. He was good at surprises. When he saw this boy today, he was really a tiger father and a dog son, and he only knew how to defend the city to the death."

Since the end of the Battle of Goguryeo, Deng Ai became famous all over the world and has become known to the world. In particular, he rushed from Liangshui to attack Baima City and seized the city with lightning speed and straight for Maruntu to defeat the country. It is a pity.

Tian Pengzu immediately issued a call from Wei Jun and shouted: "Come to the island!"

This time I have learned a lot. I first advanced with two large ships, and the catapult on the bow flew up and down, and the rocks broke through the sky.

Deng Zhong still ordered the Yan army to defend the shallows with the Sky-Breaking Crossbow first and shoot at the coming Wei ship. Countless huge arrows like clubs are extremely powerful, and they must penetrate armor in the middle. In addition, the accuracy is even more terrifying, and they are definitely not comparable to the catapult. The Sky-Breaking Crossbow only needs to adjust the platform below, and the range is long, and the deviation of the correct head will not be half a foot different.

The throwing force emitted by the stone catapult can send thirty or forty kilograms of stone bullets three hundred steps away, and it is very powerful. However, the accuracy is far from the point of view. Which target can hit is purely a chance. Such a weapon can only show its power unless it is used to siege the city and aim at a huge target that cannot move from morning to night.

The Sky-Breaking Crossbow, also known as the Three-Bow Bed Crossbow, is a magic weapon used by the Song people. It was named after the Liao general Xiao Talin with an arrow hundreds of steps away.

Tian Pengzu stood by the bow and took a few steps back so as not to be injured by him. As expected, as soon as the Wei ship entered the range, Deng Zhong personally corrected the direction and aimed at the bow and shot directly. The arrows went like a meteor, and the arrows carried flames. Each place they hit would cause a fire.

Fortunately, there was no such thing as a mortal fort along the coast, hidden underwater. The Wei army defended with shields to block the deadly shooting. Even if the ship caught fire, it would have spare energy to extinguish it.

As soon as the ship docked, Deng Zhong immediately ordered the Yan army to lift the heavy sky-breaking crossbow and slowly retreat into the village.

Two Wei ships docked first and immediately got off the anchor.

As soon as the Wei army got off the ship, they each held swords and axes and cut off the exposed rail forts on the shore. Hundreds of swords and axes turned left and right, and all cut them down.

Tian Pengzu hated this reef comparable to man-made. It was the last night battle that destroyed seven large ships and lost five or six thousand elite soldiers. Now they have cut off these rail forts. One is to avenge a revenge on one arrow, and the other is to not cut them down, and when the tide rises again, the advantages of the rail fort will be taken advantage of again. Only by cutting them down can this fortification be completely destroyed.

The two thousand Wei army immediately formed an army formation on the beach to prevent the rest of the ships from being attacked when they landed on the island. Tian Pengzu was quite capable of using troops, and the two thousand Wei army was airtightly and the left and right wings were not airtight.

Immediately afterwards, the large ship led by Tian Yu came from behind, moored on the shore, and disembarked in an orderly manner.

In an instant, the Wei army on the beach increased from 2,000 to 5,000, and then 20,000 to 30,000. The Wei army quickly formed a formation as soon as it got off the ship, like a black ocean.

Deng Zhong in the city walled city was amazed. He also thought about taking advantage of the enemy's landing on the island and sending troops to charge the formation before he was stable. However, this idea was cut off from the military ability of Tian Pengzu's formation.

Such a military formation cannot be easily broken through.

Deng Zhong couldn't help but sweat in his palm, thinking that there were only 3,000 soldiers in the city, but he was facing a hundred battles of 30,000 soldiers. He thought to himself: "The gap between the enemy and us is nearly ten times, so we can't help Tian Yu to see through it."

Tian Yu finally walked off the boat surrounded by his personal soldiers. He looked at everything on the island from afar, his eyes were about to spit out fire, thinking that this revenge of arrows was finally avenged today, and said coldly: "Surprise the city immediately, capture Liu and Deng for me alive, and reward them with great reward."

The Wei army shouted in unison and pushed it straight to the shore in a black voice. Deng Zhong even felt that even the earth was trembling slightly from the power of every step he stepped on the ground.

He took a deep breath and looked back at the soldiers on the top of the city. He had prepared all the breaking sky crossbow, crossbowman, rolling wood, and oil. He immediately choked and pulled out the three-foot long sword from his waist and said loudly: "Soldiers, fight to the end with me."

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

There were roars in unison, and with the sound of drums cheering, there were drums everywhere, which felt like the collapse of the land and the ground was broken, and the momentum was not weaker than that of the Wei army.

Donglai County, Qingzhou, Huang County.

When Liu Zhi arrived by detour, it was already a night when the moon was hazy. The ship was walking in the dark and ordered all members not to hold lights, so as not to be discovered by the Wei army circling at the sea.

Fortunately, the ships patrolling along the coast were all walking with lights, which was particularly conspicuous on the dark sea. Once Liu Zhi discovered it, he ordered the clutch to sink it without giving him a chance to inform him.

The huge fleet of flying dragon ships looks like a ghost.

He estimated that it would be twenty miles away to reach the shore, and immediately ordered: "The soldiers of the three armies, set sail, light up the torches, and move forward at full speed!"

With this order, the Yan army immediately lit up a torch, and it seemed that there were suddenly hundreds of starlights of large and small on the sea.

Wei Ship, who was patrolling at sea, immediately saw the flames. He was so scared that he was scattered. He sat on the ground with his butt, his cheeks trembling: "This - this, Yan army, Yan army is here!"

The centurion led by the leader was also shocked by the scene in front of him, thinking to himself that today, the prefect Tian led the main force to attack the island chain, why did the enemy ships of the Yan army attack at night? He hurriedly said: "No, retreat quickly! Go back and report to the governor Cheng."

The Wei army quickly turned the bow of the ship and headed straight for the coast.

But the Wei ship was extremely slow, so how could it be able to jump out? The Yan army's flying dragon boats soon followed the speed at a very fast speed. The centurion looked back and was only four or five hundred steps away from the nearest one. Only the Yan army behind could shout in unison: "Wei thieves stopped the ship, and they would not kill them!"

The centurion took off the bow and arrows behind him, and fired the bow at the same time as the thirty Wei soldiers on the boat. He turned around and shot several arrows. He couldn't touch the Yan boat because the distance was too far. He furiously said, "Despicable Yan thief, I want us to surrender and be your dream of spring and autumn!"

Seeing that he dared to fight back, the Yan army no longer cared about anything, so they immediately fired the Sky-Breaking Crossbow and fired at the Wei ship.

Soon, seven or eight flame-burning arrows hit the hull, stern, sail and other targets, and the fire immediately became a huge hit on the ship.

The Wei army was busy extinguishing the fire in a panic. The centurion was still stubborn and angrily scolded: "Shen thief..."

Before he finished speaking, another arrow flew through the air.

He felt a flash in front of him, and then it was pierced through his chest, and he flew straight off the boat, with only a "thump" sound of falling into the water.

The Wei army's ship caught fire, and it was already in chaos, but it died again, and it became even more chaotic. Liu Zhi was too lazy to pay attention to the patrol ship. Seeing more than a dozen Wei soldiers jumped into the sea to survive, swimming towards Yan ship, shouting for help.

"Shoot."

Liu Zhi frowned, shook his sleeves, and said lightly.

The crossbowman led his bow and shot more than ten people in the sea.

The prefecture of Huang County.

Han Sheng, who was sleeping soundly, was suddenly awakened by a sudden knock on the door. He couldn't help but get up and said impatiently: "Who is outside?"

As he said that, he stretched his waist sleepily and yawned.

The personal soldiers wearing armor smiled bitterly and hurriedly said, "Han Changshi, it's not good. Yan's army - Yan's army launched a night attack. There are nearly a hundred warships coming from the coast."

Han Sheng's face changed immediately and he said in surprise: "How is it possible? Didn't Taishou lead the army to conquer the Yan thieves on the South Island? Why did he suddenly run towards Huang County again?"

He ejected from the bed in one go, dressed in clothes, pants, helmets, armor, boots, and swords, and was overwhelmed with speed.

Han Sheng hurried out of the room, and said with a gloomy face: "The situation is really not good. As soon as Tian Taishou led 30,000 Qingzhou troops to counterattack Nandao, Yan thieves led the main force to attack Huangxian. Needless to say, they were also caught by the enemy's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain."

The personal soldiers smiled bitterly and said, "There are still a thousand people from the county people in our city."

Han Sheng frowned. There were no heavy troops stationed in the small county town on weekdays. Only the military-serious army was organized by the people in the countryside, and the young and middle-aged people. Although the quality of all members was generally low, it was impossible for such a large Qingzhou to be stationed every inch of land.

He thought of this and said in a deep voice: "Come quickly and keep Huang County, so that the enemy thieves can not succeed. At the same time, he quickly asks Ye County for help and asks Governor Cheng to send troops to help at night."

There are six counties under the jurisdiction of Donglai County in Qingzhou, including Ye County. Currently, Xiahou Xuan and Cheng Xi stationed troops here. Only by transferring the warable troops from Ye County to support can there be hope of defending them.

The personal soldiers did not dare to neglect them, so they immediately rode their horses out of the palace and headed straight for Ye County to seek reinforcements.

Han Sheng climbed to the city gate in Huangxian and ordered the city gate to be closed.

He led a thousand men to defend his home in the city, opened the arsenal and sent weapons to everyone, either for bows and arrows, or for swords, guns, swords and halberds. In short, he sent weapons in a similar manner, which could be considered as a soldier who was a soldier and ate food.

Most of these people have only served two years of military service. They only guard the city gates, stand guard, and so on weekdays. Where did they really fight?

Han Sheng was uneasy and thought to himself: "It would be difficult to win a battle with these people. As long as he could hold on for two days, he would be sent to the governor Cheng of Ye County to send troops to rescue him."

There were 5,000 soldiers in Ye County, all well-trained war-capable soldiers, not the mobs of Huang County. Taking advantage of Chengguan as the defense, only 2,000 reinforcements were enough to defend Huang County and not be defeated by the Yan army.

Of course, the most important thing is to stick to Tian Yu's withdrawal from the South Island to return to the army. After all, all the main troops were in his hands. In addition to the young and strong people who could help defend the city, the counties had no offensive ability, so they had to hide in the city and guard the Rong.

Han Sheng paced back and forth at the top of the city, waiting at night until dawn the next day, the Yan army still did not attack the city, and there was still a quiet place around.

He yawned, his face had dark circles, and he said tiredly: "Where is Yan Jun? Is there any scout going to find out?"

After a while, the scout came to report and said loudly: "Han Changshi, Yan thieves are stationed on the beach to plunder the people."

Han Sheng frowned: "Robbery?"

I thought that the war between the two countries consumed a lot of people's and material resources. Yan's military management was so relaxed. He ignored the overall situation and only plundered the people in the coastal areas. It seemed that the word "Yan thief" was not wrong, and the word "thief" was really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The scout replied: "I saw that the Yan army brought a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry onto the ship."

He thought it would be fine if he could drag the army to Ye County to rescue him. Seeing that it was already dawn, he said happily: "Explore again!"
