Seeing this situation, Li Shimin frowned and asked Yang Siqi: "Won't the Iron Battleship take too much damage?"

Yang Siqi confidently assured: "Your Majesty, don't worry, a mere piece of driftwood can wipe off a layer of paint on the battleship at most, and it won't hurt a single bit!!"

"Wipe off a layer of paint!?"

After hearing this, Li Shimin had blame in his eyes, and said with some distress: "If I had known that the paint on the battleship would be rubbed off, I would have turned the direction of the battleship, so I wouldn't force myself into it, hey~"

One coat of paint, why all the fuss?

Yang Siqi's lips twitched, just as he was about to refute, but he heard others say.

"Yes, yes! The Duke should have reminded earlier that the battleship was built by tens of thousands of people, and it must not be damaged at all."

"The paint on the battleship is rubbed off, isn't that ugly!?"

When everyone regretted it, the battleship had already collided with the driftwood.

Some of the driftwood directly met it head-on, and it was cut off at the waist with a "click", breaking into two sections.

More driftwood was directly knocked away, taking away a piece of black paint, revealing the color of dark steel, as if it was tickling the battleship.

Most of the fishing nets sank into the water, and only a few were drawn into the propeller by the eddy current, and the final result was cut and broken by the high-speed rotating propeller.

The sounds of crashing and breaking were intertwined constantly, but the battleship remained motionless like a mountain.

Only the black paint from the collision was wiped away, exposing the black steel.

Li Shimin was very distressed when he heard the sound of the collision.

After driving the battleship for so long, everyone regards the battleship as a treasure.

And Izumi Nanjian in the middle of the river was completely stunned, a little hard to accept.

According to the previous river interception tactics, a large amount of driftwood and fishing nets were thrown down from the upper reaches.

This is not actually dependent on the impact of driftwood. After all, big ships are not afraid at all, and only small boats are likely to be knocked over.

But the reason for this is that wooden boats need oars as power, and fishing nets and driftwood can interfere with the oars, or even entangle the oars, so that the boat loses power.

A ship that loses its power is only an object to be slaughtered in Da.

The scene in front of him made Quan Nanjian a little dumbfounded.

It didn't matter if it couldn't hinder the boat, but even the driftwood was knocked into two knots.

This is too exaggerated!

Seeing that the battleship is less than 100 meters away from the sandbar.

While waving the flag, Quan Nanjian shouted loudly: "Hurry up, hurry up and let the rockets go!"

"Yes!" For a moment, the soldiers on the sandbank and the shore stood up directly.

Lighting the rocket, the full moon opened its bow, aiming at the ten-meter-high warship.

"put!"

"Whoa!!"

Bows and arrows with tarpaulins were drawn in a curve in the air, covering the side of the battleship like raindrops.

With so many rockets, no matter how big the ship is, it will be ignited!

Before we had time to celebrate, countless "ding ding ding" sounded like iron strikes.

The rain of arrows, which was always invincible, encountered a thick iron plate at this moment, except for a crisp sound and countless scratches, it did nothing.

It fell directly into the water and was washed away with the current.

The only thing that caused a slightly louder sound and dent was the Eight Bull Crossbow, but the result was almost like other arrows falling into the water.

"How... how could this happen?"

Quan Nanjian stared wide-eyed, looking at everything in front of him in disbelief, a frightening thought appeared in his mind.

Li Shimin was extremely angry, so many arrows would scratch the paint!

"Damn it, let me overturn his boat!!"

Li Shimin became angry immediately, entered the narrow sandbar and rammed directly towards Quan Nanjian's boat.

Less than a hundred meters away, Quan Nanjian saw the warship sailing towards him with just a daze, and was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder burst.

"Quick, get out of the way!!"

But the speed of artificial paddles is no match for steam power.

Although the boatman tried his best, he still couldn't escape.

There was only a sound of "cracking", and the wood at the stern broke directly, then swung in the water, and sank slowly.

The people on the boat fell into the water like dumplings, and Izumi Nanjian was no exception.

"Okay!" Li Shimin patted the rudder excitedly.

Although the scene below the ship cannot be seen, the sound of the hull cracking and shouting can be heard.

Liu Rengui on the side said cautiously: "Your Majesty, all the warships have entered the sandbar and can fire now!!"

Li Shimin said with a grim expression: "Okay, come and don't be indecent, let's always feel like a cannon!"

After all, he said loudly into the microphone: "Tell me the will, load the ammunition, and prepare to fire!!!."

At this point the combat layer receives the order.

Xue Rengui shouted loudly: "Prepare for battle, shoot flat from an angle, target both sides of the river...everyone load the ammunition."

"Yes!!".

While speaking, the gunners opened the cannons on the side of the ship, loaded the ammunition neatly, and finally stretched out the dark cannons.

"The left muzzle is ready!"

"The right muzzle is ready!!"

"Everyone is ready!!" Xue Rengui hurriedly reported the order in front of him: "The preparations are complete."

"Your Majesty, the gunners are ready to fight." Liu Rengui reported to Li Shimin after receiving the order.

"Fire the cannon and blow up all of them!" Li Shimin said directly.

At this time, the soldiers on the bank and the sandbar only heard a crackling sound,

Neat holes appeared on both sides of the ship, and the black gun barrel protruded from the inside.

What is this?

Maybe shoot rockets in there!

Quan Nanjian in the water looked up at the movement above and couldn't help but think.

Chapter 176 Shazhou defeated, ready to surrender

Before he could do anything, black gun barrels protruded from the hole.

"Boom boom boom...!"

Without warning, there was a thunderous noise from the entrance of the cave.

In an instant, the river water made countless ripples, and an invisible force passed through his body, and the eardrum seemed to be pierced in half by an awl, which was extremely painful.

Immediately afterwards, the iron balls drew beautiful curves at a terrifying speed, like raindrops covering the sandbar and both banks.

"Boom boom boom..."

Accompanied by countless explosions, the shells landed on the ground, the soil splashed several feet high, and the smoke and dust rose; the trees were easily cut off by the middle like rotten wood; the boats were easily destroyed like rubble; Get a touch of red.

The heaven and the earth were silent, the earth was trembling, and even the river couldn't bear to shed blood and tears.

After a long time, the river wind on both sides of the bank blew, and the smoke and dust shrouded in it dispersed.

I saw devastation everywhere, bomb craters all over the place,

Trees, soldiers, horses, ships... everything that could be seen was destroyed in this round of artillery fire, and they were all covered by the mud splashing all over the sky.

The dead silence enveloped the sandbar and the shore, and the scene was extremely tragic.

Greed, throne, self-confidence, ambush..., destroyed in this round of artillery fire, only built an indelible fear for Quan Nan.

Quan Nanjian looked around blankly.

When he came to his senses, the loess-covered face was pale and extremely frightened, his whole body was trembling uncontrollably, and he couldn't help shouting.

"Tang Jun... really knows how to use immortals, really knows how to use immortals!"

Like him, very few survived the artillery fire.

Some went crazy and yelled about hell, fleeing like headless chickens; some knelt down on the spot, chanting prayers of unknown meaning, as if enshrining the battleship like a god.

More are people who fainted from fright and pretended to be dead.

at the same time.

Quan Nanchan on the tower not far away heard the sound of the cannon, and his ears buzzed.

He was puzzled and looked up at the sky, which was cloudless at the moment.

Is this out of thin air?

Why is this scene...why is it exactly the same as what Izumi Nanchan described?

An ominous premonition appeared in his heart, he threw away this inexplicable and absurd thought, frowned and looked at the scene in the distance.

But this distance has already exceeded 500 meters, coupled with the lush vegetation, it is difficult to see the battlefield clearly with the naked eye.

All he could see were huge warships, Tang flags fluttering in the wind, and destroyed trees.

What happened just now?

"Come on, send a team to see how the battle is going!"

"Yes!"

The personal guard led a group of people out through the side door and ran directly towards the river bank ahead.

But a group of people just left the city gate and didn't go far.

Oncoming was a 'madman' who was covered in blood and was so frightened that his face was distorted.

The madman kept shouting: "Hell, here comes the devil..."

The guard looked a little terrified, what happened!

The soldier on the side put his hand on the handle of the knife at his waist, and signaled something: "Do you want it?"

"Don't worry about the lunatic, I'll go and investigate!" the guard said directly.

But soon, more lunatics appeared and passed them.

Qin Wei and the rest of the group were terrified when they saw it, and a chill came out from the bottom of their hearts and spread all over their bodies.

In just a moment, the guards and his party saw the devastated battlefield in front of them, with corpses everywhere.

No, this cannot be called a battlefield. How can a corpse that has been broken to such an extent be called a battlefield?

What the hell is going on here! ?

What kind of means can cause such damage?

The personal guard felt very evil, and his hands and feet were trembling.

"save···"

Suddenly, a faint gasp attracted the guard's attention.

He turned his head to look, and what appeared in front of him was an extremely embarrassed and disheveled 'wounded soldier'.

At this moment, the wounded soldier was lying beside a fallen tree panting, his chest heaving continuously.

"Go, go and have a look."

The guard put his right hand tightly on the handle of the knife, with a nervous expression, and walked quickly towards the man.

When he walked in front of the man, the man was taken aback, and his face showed surprise: "Quick, save me quickly."

The personal guard ignored it, frowned, and asked cautiously.
