The sound of conch whimpered and fell into Yi Yun's ears, feeling a burst of annoyance.

On the coast in front of him, golden sand waves slapped the coast, and pieces of sand flew out one after another. When the Yiwu soldiers heard the sound of the enemy's conch, they also knew that the Japanese pirates were about to attack, and everyone was so nervous that they were sweating.

Usually, similar strange sounds are heard on the battlefield, which are preludes for the enemy to enter the general attack. For example, before the Yunnan-Guizhou rebels liked to beat drums, and it was a very strange skin drum, which is said to be made of human skin. The Mongolian and Manchu soldiers in the north liked to blow trumpets before the attack, and that trumpet was made of sheep horns or cow trumpets, which sounded very annoying. However, the Guangxi wolf soldiers liked to blow whistles before the attack, which was a whistle made of bamboo joints, with a light, high, sharp and unpleasant sound.

The sound of conch now should be the prelude to the Japanese pirates' attack. Everyone was thinking this way. The gunmen tightened the muskets in their hands and stared at the eight Japanese pirate ships on the sea.

Yi Yun turned around and looked at a bronze cannon set up not far away. He planned to change his position as an artillery at any time and use the cannon to bombard the Japanese pirates landing in battle.

This cannon is not a thousand-jin Folang machine cannon, but a red-clothed cannon removed from the head of Nanjing city, also known as the Red Cannon. It weighs more than 5,400 kilograms and is covered with red cloth. The difference between this cannon and the thousand-jin Folang machine cannon is not only tonnage and caliber, but its status in the Dameng Kingdom is extremely noble.

The Qianjin Folang machine cannon is not named. One cannon is a cannon, but each red-clothed cannon has to be named a separate name, such as "Majestic General Cannon", "Yangwei General Cannon", etc. For example, the name of the cannon next to Yi Yun is called "Zhenhai General Cannon". Before each use, the artillery will burn incense and pay tribute in front of it...

Yi Yun believed that with his powerful red cannon, he could definitely suppress at least three or four artillery soldiers on the other side. Because the warships usually carry a thousand-pound Flang machine cannon, they would not be equipped with such a heavy red cannon.

Now that the cannons are ready, the gunmen are all lying in the woods, and the bullets are loaded, just waiting for Wang Zhi's landing troops to come up to eat the bullets. Why are the eight warships still hovering at the sea and not moving at all?

"Have you noticed something was wrong?" Ruan Mu Xing leaned against Yi Yun and whispered: "I have blown the conch. It should be the signal of the general attack. Why didn't one of the eight warships move?"

"It's really wrong!" Yi Yun frowned.

"Look, the amplitude of the waves surged has become larger!" The stupid assassin Lu Xi shouted.

Everyone's attention was all on the enemy ships, but no one paid attention to the sea. Only when the stupid assassin was dozing off and was distracted, he saw the changes in the sea. On the rolling sea, one wave was hit higher than the other, as if there were huge waves coming. The sand waves rolled, beating the shores and rocks and beaches, making a violent sound.

"What's wrong? Is the Qiantang River tide coming?" Yi Yun Daqi.

"Look, something has come out in the sea!" Many Yiwu soldiers shouted at the same time.

Yi Yun quickly looked at it intently. He saw a black thing suddenly emerged from the sea several miles away. It was too far away and couldn't see clearly. He could only see a little bulge, which looked like a reef. He took out his telescope and magnified it, but he saw a black thing, which was not real in the rolling sand waves.

"It's floating! It's getting taller and taller!" The Yiwu soldiers exclaimed.

Yi Yun also watched through the telescope as the black reef grew higher and higher bit by bit. Slowly, the part that was protruding from the sea became conspicuous. Yi Yun discovered that this was not a reef, but a carapace... a very huge carapace with dark brown patterns on it, and some marine creatures such as shells were attached.

"This thing is a bit like the back shell of a turtle!" Yi Yun said seriously.

Ruan Mu Xing, who was holding a telescope next to him, nodded and said, "That's right, I also think it's like a turtle's back shell, but... the turtle is not that big."

The turtle shells on the sea continued to rise, getting higher and higher, and the expressions of Yiyun and Yiwu soldiers began to become increasingly ugly. After a long time, a floating hill stood on the sea, which was hundreds of meters high and hundreds of meters in radius... The huge hill was covered with turtle shell patterns...

"Damn it, this is a huge turtle!" Yi Yun shouted: "A turtle as big as a mountain."

The Yiwu soldiers also shouted in unison: "Oh my God, what a big turtle! This turtle has not completely surfaced..."

Amid the screams of everyone, the giant turtle's head and four legs finally floated up. It was indeed as big as a mountain. Just a little bit of head was dozens of meters long. Four huge feet scratched the water and huge waves surged. The terrifying momentum was several miles apart and could be clearly felt.

Yi Yun finally understood why Wang Zhi chose to land at a place fifty miles away from the oasis, because Wusong Wharf is already considered the estuary of the Yangtze River, and the water there is relatively shallow, so it would be inconvenient for such a large turtle to move in that kind of shallow water area. Only by logging in here can the turtle move more conveniently.

"Dad, my buddy has just finished fighting with a huge scorpion. Are you going to fight for the big turtle again?" Yi Yun's sweat burst out.

The giant turtle began to rush towards the shore. The waves that it swam while swimming made Wang Zhi's eight warships quickly escape for a distance, and did not dare to get close. The huge waves pounced on the shore and splashed sand waves up to ten meters high. When the wind blew, the sand was everywhere. Yi Yun almost ate a mouthful of sand.

"What exactly is this?" Yi Yun grabbed the ugly maid and asked, "Do you Sanjiang Pavilion have any information about this big turtle?"

The ugly maid rolled her eyes: "Please pay 10,000 taels of silver information!"

"Why is the God-like girl under her subordinates? The entire Sanjiang Pavilion is full of his sister's wealth." Yi Yun took out a ingot of silver and put it in the hand of an ugly maid and said, "Twenty taels, no bargaining price, let's talk about what this thing is? If you don't say it, there will be no profit for these twenty taels. At worst, I don't know what it is, just fight it with it."

The ugly maid weighed the money and thought to herself: It is better to make money than not to make money. Twenty taels are about twenty taels.

Then she said seriously: "This is a famous sixth-level monster in the East China Sea, Xuanwu!"

"Shenma?" Yi Yun was shocked: "Xuanwu? This is a mythical creature."

The ugly maid spread her hands: "I think your transfer treasure is a myth, and this turtle is not very strange."

"Tell me quickly, why do you listen to Wang Zhi's words?" Yi Yun said anxiously.

"The conch that Wang Zhi held in his hand was called Xuanwu magic snail. Whoever held that thing would Xuanwu listen to whoever he listened to."

"What is its weakness?"

The ugly maid said proudly: "Its weakness is that it crawls slowly, hahaha, it's very slow, after all, it's a turtle."

"I'm dizzy. What I asked about is the weakness that can be used to defeat him!" Yi Yun said anxiously.

"Cough!" The ugly maid said with her righteous reputation, "I solemnly remind you that Xuanwu has no weakness when he retracts into the shell. His back shell is harder than a stone. No matter what kind of swords, guns, swords and halberds you can't penetrate even if the muskets are, you should run away quickly."

Yi Yun: "..."

Just as the two were talking, the huge Xuanwu, as huge as a hill, had already swam near the sea. As the sea water began to become shallow, its huge body could no longer swim quickly, so it had to slowly crawl on the shallows. Its crawl was very slow, and the stones on the coast kept colliding with its huge body, making a rumble sound. The ground swayed with each collision. Although it was worse than the earthquake waves created by the Sand King, the tremor also made people unstable.

"Prince, should we fire this guy?" A Yiwu gun soldier asked blankly: "I don't know where to aim at it... it's too big, so I don't need to aim at it."

"By the way, I forgot to order the fire." Yi Yun quickly stood up, raised his hand high, and shouted: "Yiwu gun soldiers... prepare..."

"yes!"

One thousand two hundred Yiwu gun soldiers set up muskets together. Originally, Yi Yun planned to build a Shanghai Oasis and then expand his troops, but now it is not too late, so there are still only one thousand two hundred gun soldiers.

"The bullet rain array...activate..."

"Hurry shooting... don't save bullets..."

"Fight!"

With Yi Yun's order, 1,200 gunmen fired together. The sound of "papa" fire suddenly sounded on the coastline. In the woods, in the grass, and the musket soldiers hiding behind the stones fired desperately. The bullets flew towards Xuanwu slowly crawling towards the shore like rain.

After all, the musket soldiers are not stupid. They have had the experience of not being able to penetrate the Sand King's shell last time. They did not choose to hit Xuanwu's back shell. All fools know that the turtle's back shell is the hardest place. They concentrated their firepower to hit Xuanwu's head, and the part that stretched out the shell.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they opened fire, Xuanwu's head retracted into his stomach. And the difference between it and ordinary turtles is that after its head retracted into his stomach, the carapace on its lower abdomen can be closed upwards. It turned out that it was still a closed shell turtle. After the carapaces on the upper and lower ends were closed, there was no even a slit.

A dense piece of bullets flew over and hit its front armor, making a muffled "bumping" sound, but the result was exactly the same as everyone expected. All the bullets were bounced away and could not hit its thick turtle shell at all.

"Even the bullet rain formation can't be hit... I'm cheating... I'm hitting it on the feet!" Yi Yun ordered loudly.

"Baopa!" The sound of the musket sounded again. This time the bullets were all attacking its thick feet. Everyone thought it would retract its legs, but Xuanwu ignored the attacking bullets. Its legs were covered with a thick green skin. The green skin actually had a strong defensive effect. The bullet hit it and bounced silently, which was not painful or itchy at all.
