Chapter 305: The Power of the Dragon and Elephant, Killing Everyone (Part 2)
On the deck of the "Da Tang" super battleship, the first ship (command ship) of the Tang Dynasty Navy Fleet, Qi Jiguang, the Duke of Dingguo, who was the admiral of the navy, was standing proudly on the bow with a monocular telescope in both hands, staring at the Nanpu Port Pier and the coastal mudflats.
The vanguard of the navy fleet was blocked from landing, which made Qi Jiguang's heart suddenly rise to his throat. His expression on his resolute face was solemn and his brows were furrowed.
This battle was not only the first battle of the Tang Dynasty Navy Fleet after the founding of the country, but also a battle for Qi Jiguang, the admiral of the navy, to "vindicate himself".
Qi Jiguang knew very well that he could be named one of the six dukes of the Tang Dynasty, and the civil and military officials in the court had quite a few complaints.
Compared with the other five dukes, Qi Jiguang's qualifications and military achievements were not enough to support him to be named the Duke of the New Dynasty.
The reason why he was finally named Duke Dingguo was because Emperor Zhaowu Chen Huaian had an extraordinary strategic vision. He saw that the Tang Navy Fleet would become the mainstay of the Tang Dynasty in the future and expand the territory for the Han people in the four seas, so he made an exception to reward the navy generals.
Even Qi Jiguang's deputy general and deputy admiral of the navy, Yuan Kai, was also named one of the 18 marquises of the Tang Dynasty.
In addition, two navy generals were awarded the title of earl, ranking second among the 36 earls of the Tang Dynasty.
It can be seen that Emperor Zhaowu Chen Huaian had high hopes for the Tang Navy Fleet!
Therefore, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Navy Fleet, from Admiral Qi Jiguang to the navy officers and soldiers fighting on the front line, have been holding their breath to make achievements for the Tang Dynasty.
This expedition to Goguryeo was the best test for the navy officers and soldiers.
But I never thought that this small Goguryeo naval camp and the small Nanpu Port would become a stumbling block on the way forward for the Tang Dynasty naval fleet.
For a moment, the naval commanders on the "Tang" super battleship were so anxious that they paced back and forth, but they were helpless because of the terrain and the port full of Goguryeo warships.
They could only watch the time pass by.
"General, look--"
Suddenly, Yuan Kai, the deputy admiral of the navy and the Marquis of Tongwu, who was standing next to Qi Jiguang, reported excitedly: "Prince Jin, it was His Royal Highness Prince Jin who personally led the left and right Yuhou Army (personal soldiers) up!"
Hmm?
Hearing this, Qi Jiguang raised his eyebrows and immediately moved the view of the monocular telescope in his hand to the Nampo Port dock where the fierce battle was taking place.
Sure enough, a golden figure appeared in his sight.
The third generation Jin Wang Chen Longxiang, wearing golden armor and a golden helmet, waved a pair of drum-shaped golden hammers weighing hundreds of pounds in both hands, like a god of war, standing on the beach of Nanpu Port Pier;
He was not afraid of the arrows shot by the archers of the Goguryeo Navy on the opposite side, and personally led the charge, like a tiger descending from the mountain, and rushed directly into the Goguryeo Navy.
Although Qi Jiguang could not hear the fighting between the naval officers and soldiers of both sides in Nanpu Port two or three miles away;
But he knew very well that the roar of Jin Wang Chen Longxiang, who was the vanguard general and led the charge, would be like the roar of a dragon and a tiger, which would frighten the Goguryeo soldiers and destroy them physically and mentally.
Chen Longxiang's pair of drums and golden hammers were dancing tightly, and every swing was accompanied by a Goguryeo navy soldier, who was blown away several meters like a kite with a broken string;
In an instant, Chen Longxiang smashed the bows and arrows of the Goguryeo navy officers and soldiers into pieces with his two hammers alone, and the army was defeated;
The left and right Yuhou troops behind him could not keep up with the pace of the vanguard general Chen Longxiang, and just followed the enemy's remnants torn apart by Chen Longxiang, constantly finishing off the enemy and harvesting heads.
In front of Chen Longxiang's pair of drums and golden hammers, the defense line on the Nampo Port dock and the mudflats seemed to be made of paper. Wherever the two hammers went, the beach was stained with blood and there was grief everywhere.
The young King of Jin of the Tang Dynasty and the vanguard general of the navy, Chen Longxiang, suppressed the counterattack of the Goguryeo navy on the entire Nampo Port dock and the mudflats with his own strength, and bought time for the vanguard of the Tang Dynasty navy who were landing on the beach by boat.
It is no exaggeration to say that his arms, which are naturally strong enough to defeat the four elephants, plus his pair of drum-beating golden hammers weighing hundreds of pounds, are enough to make any manpower or weapons that dare to compete with him appear extremely fragile and vulnerable.
The large equipment such as the crossbow carts and catapults in the Goguryeo navy formation were torn into pieces under Chen Longxiang's full-strength hammer.
As the saying goes, one force can defeat ten skills.
This saying is most appropriate for Chen Longxiang.
He is no longer one force defeating ten skills, but one force defeating a hundred or a thousand skills.
There was such a fierce general in the Tang army navy. He killed all the people in the Goguryeo navy formation at the Nampo Port Wharf. Naturally, he could not escape the discerning eyes of Gao Wu, the admiral of the Goguryeo navy, who was watching the battle from the watchtower of the navy camp.
Seeing that his soldiers had no chance of survival under the double hammers of the Tang Dynasty freak general, Gao Wu's originally strong spirit suddenly withered.
The Nampo Port Navy Camp may not be able to be defended!
At the same time.
Li Zhengmin, the deputy admiral of the Goguryeo Navy who was personally commanding the battle at the Nampo Port dock, also found the fierce general in the Tang Navy who was wearing a golden battle armor and holding a pair of hammers, killing people in his own formation as if he was in an empty space.
The cold sweat on Li Zhengmin's head rolled down.
His first reaction was, could it be that the Tang Dynasty Zhaowu Emperor Chen Huaian came to lead the army in person?
It is rumored that when the Tang Dynasty Emperor Zhaowu Chen Huaian started his army, he always wore a golden armor and rode a halberd in his hand to charge into battle, defeating countless famous generals of the Great Xin Dynasty.
It is also rumored that the Zhaowu Emperor Chen Huaian was so brave that no one could resist him, whether it was the generals or the Second Emperor Zhao Gan of the Great Xin Dynasty who led the army in person, no one could withstand a single move from Chen Huaian's halberd.
This is exactly the same as the fierce general of the Tang Army Navy wearing golden armor in front of him.
However, after a brief surprise, Li Zhengmin quickly realized that the young general in front of him, who was killing people everywhere, used a pair of golden hammers, which was far from the halberd;
Moreover, this young general looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, and his age did not match that of the Zhaowu Emperor Chen Huaian.
He was definitely not the Zhaowu Emperor Chen Huaian of the Tang Dynasty who led the army in person.
But then again, since he is not Chen Huaian, it is even more terrifying.
This means that in addition to the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, there is another brave and unparalleled general. This is not a good thing for the Goguryeo generals who are the opponents of the Tang Dynasty!
"Ah Xi!"
Li Zhengmin cursed angrily, gritted his teeth and gave an order: "Come on-"
"Pass this general's order, the garrison (reserve) will attack with all the troops, the target, the Tang Navy general wearing golden armor, kill him at all costs!"
"Personal soldiers, follow this general to ride out and take the head of the Tang Navy general!"
"I have received the order!"
Soon, Li Zhengmin, deputy admiral of the Goguryeo Navy, led hundreds of personal soldiers, mounted their horses, dragged their spears, and went straight to Jin Wang Chen Longxiang.
At the same time
Chen Longxiang, who was already blood-thirsty and excited about killing, also discovered that a group of Goguryeo cavalry, led by a general, was heading straight for him.
The corners of his mouth suddenly curved upward, and a hint of smile appeared in his red eyes.
You came just in time, my Lei Gu Weng Jin Chui is already thirsty!
Hahaha!
