Lord of the People of Online Games (Lord of the Gaming World)

"There are four wooden arrow towers in total. The water village is surrounded by water on three sides and mountains on one side. If you want to exterminate this group of water bandits, you must have boats."

The sailors who took the scout ship came back to report to Chutian.

Chutian summoned 210 professional soldiers, 100 villagers, and 8 sailors to the vicinity of the water village, and found that the water village was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Xiazhen has only one sentry ship, which can release several soldiers at a time. Such a fuel-filling tactic will be consumed by the water bandits.

"To attract them ashore, we will ambush the archers on the shore. Once the other side comes ashore, the ambush archers will release their arrows, and the cavalry will go up to harvest and capture the other side's ships."

Chutian arranged sentry ships to lure the enemy.

"Lord, let me lead the team."

Liu Sandao volunteered.

"You take three archers to lure the enemy."

"Yes!"

Liu Sandao selected three high-level Xuzhou archers, and then took the sentry boat to leave.

Other soldiers lay in ambush in the woods on the shore.

The water village is a big hazard for Xia Town, which relies on the Yi River. No one knows when these water bandits will join forces to attack the surrounding villages and towns. The safest way is to destroy them.

The location of the water village is typically easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is not easy to conquer the water village. But this also means that if the water village can be occupied, then it can become the camp of the Xia Town navy in the future without occupying the dock of Xia Town.

This is a step in the separation of soldiers and people in Xiazhen.

Liu Sandao's sentry boat appeared on the outskirts of the water village. After the two wooden boats of the water bandits found the sentry ship, they quickly came to chase.

Liu Sandao, holding a longbow, stood at the stern of the boat and fired several arrows one after another, killing a water bandit.

After all, he is a retired military marquis of the Han army, and his personal skills are not too bad.

The water bandits also shot arrows towards Liu Sandao, and a dozen arrows flew over the water.

The sentry boat is extremely flexible, with eight sailors paddling at the same time, like a sharp arrow on the water, quickly fleeing towards the shore.

The pirate ship is equally nimble, chasing after it.

"My lord, General Liu successfully lured the water bandits over!"

"Prepare for battle!"

Chu Tian took down a long bow. Although his force was not high, it still hurt a little.

Xiazhen's sentry ship docked, Liu Sandao and the others abandoned the ship and left. A group of water bandits robbed Xiazhen's sentry ship, and another group of water bandits were still fighting against Liu Sandao.

Suddenly, the arrows of the ambush soldiers on the shore fired in unison, and dozens of arrows shot out, covering a group of water bandits!

The arrows sank into their bodies, and several water bandits were shot and killed on the spot!

They were attacked by Tier 3 arms, excellent archers from Xuzhou.

"Not good, fooled! Brothers, retreat!"

When the water bandits saw the soldiers in ambush, they reacted immediately and wanted to escape.

The longbow was tensed in Mulan's hands, and silver-level weapons seemed to be unable to withstand such a high force, and had a tendency to break.

The arrow was like a shooting star, and the small leader of the water bandit on the boat fell in response.

The water bandits who lost the command of the little leader fell into a panic, and the sound of horse hooves on the shore was their reminder.

The light cavalry quickly came to the shore, dismounted and killed the pirate ship!

Liu Sandao took the opportunity to counterattack and try to keep the thief boat behind before it escapes!

Shooting the water bandits is the second priority, grabbing the boat and attacking the water village is the key point.

Hua Mulan used the high-level skill "One Hundred Steps to Pierce Yang", which was bestowed by Chutian, to continuously shoot and kill the water bandits, basically one water bandit with one arrow.

However, even military generals have physical limitations, and their arms will be sore and numb after shooting arrows one after another.

Soon nearly twenty water bandits were killed in the two pirate ships, and several bandits jumped into the river and escaped.

Two pirate ships were captured. The boats used by the water bandits are almost the same as the sentry boats in Xia Village. They are fast and flexible in inland rivers, but without parapets, thick decks, and crossbows, they are not considered warships.

Now Chutian has three sentry ships, which can carry about thirty soldiers and sailors.

That is, a water village must be conquered with thirty soldiers and sailors.

Difficulty is high, but not impossible.

There is a Hua Mulan on Chutian's side who has the skill of "One Hundred Steps Through Yang". As long as this skill is used well, Hua Mulan can clear the water bandits one by one.

There is also a Liu Sandao who specializes in bows and arrows.

Xuzhou archers could not exert their full strength when fighting on the water, and could barely use them.

Melee combat is also a problem after getting close to the water village.

If all the archers were used, then after successfully attacking the water village, the archers could only be forced to melee.

Archers can of course use their swords as ordinary infantry, but their attributes will drop.

"It should be no problem for archers to be warriors, but the morale of the water bandits is estimated to have fallen to the bottom after they invaded the water village."

Chutian not only has to consider the types of arms and terrain, but also the changes in morale.

The water village is the old den of the water bandits. Once he is attacked into the water village, the morale of the water bandits will be greatly reduced. Even close combat archers should be able to deal with them.

So Chutian selected twenty Xuzhou archers, eight sailors, Hua Mulan, Liu Sandao and himself, a total of 31 people, to attack the water village.

Hua Mulan was a little worried: "Please stay here, my lord, we will report back after we destroy the water village."

"I will direct this battle myself."

Chu Tian overwhelmed a king-level general and a gold-level general at a time, so he was not worried about this battle and had to play in person. At the same time, he is also going through brutal battles.

If you don't go to the battlefield in person, you can't understand what the battle on the front line is all about. Anyone can talk about soldiers on paper. As a lord, unless there are monarchs like Cao Cao, Li Shimin, Zhao Kuangyin, etc. who often fight, it is not easy to personally intervene in commanding battles. For example, Qin Shihuang simply temporarily delegated military power to Wang Jian, and ordered him to command 600,000 Qin troops to destroy Chu. country.

But Chu Tian is a self-made lord, without the accumulation of Qin Shi Huang, he can't be the sixth generation Yu Lie, and he can't be in the Yu Yu with his long-term strategy.

All in all, a lord who does not want to be a commander is not a good entrepreneur.

The three sentinel ships were ready, Chutian, Hua Mulan, and Liu Sandao each commanded a sentry ship and quickly approached the water village.

The water village is dominated by wooden houses, dozens of wooden houses are connected to form a stockade, and four wooden arrow towers stand.

The biggest threat to the sentry ship is the three-meter-high wooden arrow tower.

The water village is originally higher than the water surface, and the height of the wooden arrow tower has reached four meters, which is condescending.

There are two water bandit archers standing guard on each of the wooden arrow towers.

Mulan's sentry ship took the lead in attacking. Sailors and archers who were not very skilled in rowing rowed their oars desperately, using the flexibility of the sentry ship to avoid the attack of the wooden arrow tower.

Hua Mulan stood alone at the bow of the boat, her bow was full of strings, and she directly shot a water bandit archer on a wooden arrow tower!

The second arrow missed and was nailed to the plank of the wooden arrow tower, spattering sawdust.

When the remaining water bandit archers secretly rejoiced, the third arrow hit his chest, and the commoner water bandit archers died on the spot.

A wooden arrow tower temporarily lost its ability to attack.

The other wooden arrow towers reacted and used bows and arrows to attack the incoming boats, shooting against the Xuzhou archers on the boats.

The threat of the wooden arrow tower is still great, and a Xiazhen sailor and a Xuzhou archer were shot and killed.

The water bandits in the entire water village were shocked because they were attacked, and dozens of ferocious water bandits poured out.

Chu Tian's scalp was numb as he watched from the warship. How many water bandits were there in this water village?
