Chapter 2965: Summer insects cannot speak of ice
The roar before Lu Fan fell to the ears of all the crew members who were still alive. At this moment, even if it was fear or panic, all the gunners rushed out of the cabin desperately.
At this moment, even though the Kushan heavy trenchers and crossbows were firing a fatal blow to the soldiers, all the Han army gunners were rushing towards their own fortresses with all their lives.
Because you can run in land warfare, but you have nowhere to run in naval warfare and don’t want to die, then you can control your ship to sink the opponent’s warship. Only in this way can you survive.
A large number of soldiers rushed to the deck. No matter how big or small cannons were, they turned desperately towards the Kushan direction as soon as they touched them. Even if a huge rock fell on their heads or a spear flew by, they could only spin the turret desperately, push it to the Kushan fleet and sink it to the opposite side. This was their only choice.
The original more than 600 naval guns were destroyed and destroyed with the huge waves. Now, about half of them can be used. However, even so, it is enough to face the Zhu Kayabo fleet that cannot even use the group's defensive style now!
Of course, on the other hand, the Kushan fleet, which had formed a front line and occupied the first move, was enough to make the Han army unable to get on the deck by relying on the long-range strikes in their hands.
However, no command was needed. After Lu Fan's order, all the gunners risked their lives to board the deck. The moment they held the turret and aimed at the Kushan Legion, the naval guns fired directly, and followed by the counterattack of all the naval guns on each ship.
The soldiers who are not good at manipulating the naval guns are constantly throwing down cables and life-saving supplies. If the ship sinks, it does not mean that everyone is finished. Although the probability of the soldiers on the sunken ship being killed in a huge wave is more than 80%, every additional soldier is saved, and at this point, every help is extremely important.
For a time, the Han Navy did not completely lose morale because of the previous terrifying strike, but instead began to fight back and rescue desperately.
Even after the huge waves, the sea surface was still surging, and the hit rate was repeatedly reduced. Even if the fleet formation was destroyed and it was impossible to form a intensive offensive, at this moment, all soldiers on the warships tried their best to launch continuous attacks on the Kushan Navy.
"Boom!" With a loud bang, the towering water column splashed a terrifying wave and hit Zhu Kayyapa. Even he felt pain as his internal energy left his body.
"Captain, the side frigate was hit by the enemy, and the port side was broken and about to sink!" With this roar, the seventh-generation ship's naval gun successfully hit a giant ship. At this distance, one shot was enough to sink it. This terrifying power, even Zhu Jiayabo's deputy was extremely scared! Many crew members ran back to the cabin directly.
"Shut up, let the soldiers go to the deck, and the crossbows and catapults counterattack. Don't stop any crossbows or catapults. The ship can withstand such a blow, but it is absolutely impossible for people!" Zhu Kashabo ordered with blood red eyes, "Break me back, success or failure, fight me back!"
Maybe they were all holding on to the idea that everyone would be killed when the ship sank. Although the Kushan crew were frightened by the terrifying blows of the Han army, under the angry order of Zhu Kayyapa, they all began to rely on the crossbows and catapults on the ships to fight back under the leadership of their respective leaders.
However, compared with the fearless death-free counterattack of the Han Dynasty, the Kushan crossbows and catapults that should have the advantage were completely suppressed, and as both sides approached, Kushan soldiers kept hiding back into the cabin.
At the same time, Ma Xinde, who was fashionable and had some cloud reserves, rushed towards the Han army's large ships with all his might. In Ma Xinde's opinion, the Han army, which had suffered such a blow, would at least be shaken in morale no matter how hard it was. As a result, the Han Dynasty, which did not want to be hit head-on, was even more crazy, especially in front of him...
"Roar up!" Sun Ce's clan's brother Sun He was standing in front of him, so he was not shattered by the huge waves, but the huge force of the wave squeezed the warship abdomen and broke the warship's sideways, and the warship was not far from sinking.
So much so that after realizing this, Sun He saw that he had no time to return to the fleet, and rushed towards Masind regardless of the command warships, facing various long-range strikes from the Arwende fleet.
"Boom!" The moment before the Awende Group's defensive style, Sun He directly detonated the ship's cloud gas reserve warehouse. While terrifying power blew the ship, he also blew himself and his personal guards to pieces.
With a dull sound, the group defense, which had already seemed a little lacking due to the large draw of clouds, was hit by a level comparable to the seventh-generation ship naval gun. Even if the power was not concentrated at one point, the huge air shock formed also caused the group's defensive style to break instantly.
"Puff..." The moment the group's defensive shattered, the sudden shock of the air made Masinde spew out an old blood, and he fell to the ground softly.
"I'm careless..." Masinde lay on the deck and kept bleeding from the corner of his mouth. He exerted force on his arm and held the boat's side, trying to stand up with difficulty. However, he failed due to tinnitus and dizziness in succession. He knew that Awende ran over to help Masinde up.
"Military advisor, are you okay?" Awende greeted in panic.
"The Han army is really strong..." Ma Xinde said with a wry smile, "Our fleet in Malacca is probably not possible except for yours, who can still achieve such a nearly desperate counterattack after encountering such a blow."
"Military advisor, I will help you to the cabin!" Awende felt bitter when he heard Maxinde's words, and looked at Zhu Jiayabo, who was closer to the Han fleet. There was no one in the positions of several heavy trenchers and crossbows. What this means is very clear.
"If they had the same skills as us, we would lose nothing." Mashind said, spitting blood, "They were also scared, but they controlled their weapons in fear and fought back, while we escaped because of fear."
"Let's go to the cabin first!" Arwend helped Masind run towards the cabin.
The moment Masinde watched Awende walk out in the cabin, he understood that even if he won this battle, the Kushan would not be able to make the final decision. The Han Dynasty was inferior to them because of their skills, while the Han Dynasty was courage. The deck flew to each other and the long-range strikes, the ship could bear it but people could not bear it.
After the group defense was gone, this attack caused exactly the same damage to the Han Dynasty and the Kushan period. Except for the internal energy that could be caught, everyone else was killed if they were hit.
Compared to the Han Dynasty fleet being dispersed and no one was on the deck at the beginning, the Kushan situation after the tide had an absolute advantage. Their fleet was still lined up with front lines, and their soldiers were also on the deck, and the bifurcated and heavy catapults could already strike the Han Dynasty ships at this distance.
This is also the reason why Mashinde agreed to Zhu Kashyapa to withdraw his own reserve cloud gas, because then it was just a firearm of fire, not to mention that they had an absolute advantage.
However, Masinde had no idea that the Han Dynasty would react after encountering this kind of blow. The opponent fought against Kushan's heavy catapults and crossbows on the upper deck and fought back against Kushan for a long-range counterattack. Then, with the messy front line, relying on his unfear of fighting will, he crushed the Kushan, who should have had an absolute advantage.
"There are so many fights with the weak that they can't imagine the strength of the strong." Ma Xinde's mouth was bitter. He had clearly planned everything, but he did not expect that he would fail because of it. "The opponent I saw before is really small compared to the Han Dynasty."
"In the Han Dynasty, it should be 'A well frog cannot speak to the sea, but is bound to the emptiness; summer insects cannot speak to the ice, but are firm to the time'. Even I am bound by the boundaries of my vision and have dealt with the weak too much, so I have forgotten what kind of people are strong." Ma Xinde said softly.
Compared with other countries, the Kushan soldiers did not lack courage, but compared with the Han Dynasty, the courage of the Kushan soldiers was really not worth mentioning.
[A country like this is not my country.] Masinde's mouth is bitter. He no longer wants to watch this battle. No matter whether it is victory or defeat, it is no longer important. The shortcomings of the Han Dynasty can be made up for, but how should the shortcomings of the Kushan Dynasty be made up for?
With the self-destruction of the Sun He warship, the battle between the Han army and the Kushan ships completely turned into a battle of willpower. However, the Jiangdong soldiers, who were famous for running away when they encountered the enemy, were shocked by the Kushan generals this time.
Before the ship cannon was about to be destroyed, the Han soldiers directly hit the last shot with the opponent's strike.
With this awareness, the Han soldiers forced Zhu Kayabo's great advantage to be disadvantageous. With a distance of less than 700 meters, the naval guns that could only be used to wash the decks sank four frigates. Including the naval guns of the seventh generation ships, before Zhu Kayabo's fleet took the sidelines, the Han army defeated the trend and killed nearly one-third of Zhu Kayabo's fleet.
At this moment, even Zhu Kayyapa felt desperate. If it weren't for the soldiers on the Awende fleet, they would have shot against the Han army against each other, and fought against the damage to kill many gunners and forts, which would have restrained a lot of the energy of the Han Dynasty.
Zhu Kayyapa is probably one of the few generals who are desperate after he has made a big advantage in his own way.
