Chapter 252: Unexpected

"Fleet!? How is it possible?! Didn't the Han people have no fleet in the Mediterranean?" The Sith shouted in disguise.

He then reacted and shouted loudly: "The whole army turned to prepare for the battle!"

The Sicilian navy was not a mob. After the early panic, he immediately turned the bow of the ship quickly according to the order of the Sith and faced the Han army fleet!

At the same time, the artillery of the Sicilian naval warships fired one after another, and the sound of tit-for-tat guns sounded in a circle. Countless shells crossed the sky and landed in front of the Han fleet, arousing countless water columns, but they were unable to get the Han fleet at all!

Seeing this, Sith was surprised. He never expected that the range of his gun was so much worse than that of his opponent?!

At this moment, the Han fleet opened fire again. The heavy sound of cannons shook the entire Mediterranean night sky. The huge roar of wind seemed to fill the entire space, making people feel that the entire space was stirred up!

In an instant, countless shells fell into the middle of the Sicilian fleet like meteor showers. The powerful shells often penetrated the deck and came out directly from the bottom of the ship!

The Sicilian officers and soldiers screamed in shock, while their warships quickly began to sink at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The Han army fleet stopped on the spot and quickly arranged in a row, bombing the Sicilian fleet with the most powerful side firepower!

The sound of cannons was several times more terrifying than before, and the sea where the Sicily fleet was located seemed to have been overturned. Among the countless water columns of sky-storming, the Sicily warships were torn to pieces by terrible forces one after another!

This is not like a terrifying scene that human power can cause, as if the natural disasters from God are imposing heavenly punishments on them!

The Sith and his officers and soldiers had never seen such fierce artillery fire. They just felt that the whole world seemed to be torn apart. The continuous roar of artillery fire was like a thunderbolt shrouded over their heads, making them all dare not raise their heads!

Sith looked at his own fleet that was raging wildly by the opponent's artillery fire, and his eyes were filled with fear, and he couldn't help but murmur: "How is this possible?! Such fierce artillery fire! This is so terrible!"

No wonder he was so out of control, because the power of artillery fire shown by the Han fleet at this moment exceeded the sum of the Sicilian naval army and the Venetian naval army, but the size of the Han fleet was only about 10,000!

The Sith calmed down and felt that if he allowed his opponent to continue bombarding like this, he would be afraid that his fleet would be over in no time!

As soon as he thought of this, Sith couldn't help but yelled fiercely, "The whole army charges! Cycle and fight in close combat with the enemy!" He believed that as long as he fights in close combat, he will definitely be able to defeat his opponent.

The sound of war drums from the Sicilians rang out loud.

The Sicilian officers and soldiers, who were at a loss, were suddenly filled with morale, and their crazy fighting blood rushed to their foreheads, shouting wildly, rushing towards the Han army's fleet with warships!

At this moment, the Sicilians were like crazy beasts, and they just wanted to rush up and fight against their opponents!

In the middle of the Han fleet, Ma Liang, who was wearing armor but still couldn't hide his scholarly anger, stood on the deck of the flagship and looked at the enemy rushing towards him, frowned slightly.

At this time, an officer rushed to Ma Liang and clasped his fists and said, "General, the enemy is rushing up!"

Ma Liang said lightly: "Continue to bombard with all your strength! At the same time, he ordered the crossbowman to go to the deck and prepare for battle! The crossbow warships and others spread their wings to prepare for attack!"

The officer responded and ran down immediately to ask the flag bearer to raise several signal flags.

All 36 gunboats of the Han army were fully fired and bombarded continuously. The continuous artillery fire continued to sweep the Sicilian fleet like storms!

The warships of the Sicilian fleet were constantly sunk under such fierce bombardment, but soon the shells fired by the Sicilian fleet could also reach the Han fleet!

A cheer suddenly rang out in the middle of the Sicilian fleet.

However, such cheers did not last long, and the excitement was immediately replaced by shock.

It turned out that the shells fired by the Sicilian fleet hit the iron armored warships lined up on the front line, and the loud noise was shocking. However, all the shells that hit the warships failed to achieve success and were bounced off one by one. The power of the artillery fire was completely ineffective!

This was self-evident to the attack on the Sicilian army. All Sicilian officers and soldiers seemed to be poured with a large bucket of cold water in their heads, and they were cold from head to feet, panic and at a loss! Even the firepower of the artillery seemed to have been affected and declined a lot!

Just when the Sicily Army was shocked, the Han army's gunboats fired a volley, and the entire space seemed to shake. Countless artillery shells stirred the entire sky and fell into the middle of the Sicily Army.

At this moment, the distance between the two sides is much closer than before.

Therefore, the artillery fire of the Han army seemed to be more fierce than before, like a storm sweeping by. Countless Sicilian warships were hit, the masts collapsed, and the wreckage flew around. The screams were still particularly harsh in the sky of artillery fire!

The Sicilian army seemed to have been hit hard, and its fierce momentum just now disappeared. Many Sicilian warships hurriedly turned their heads and fled to the northwest without receiving any orders.

This round of artillery fire attack caused the Sicilian fleet to completely blow up.

Sith was frightened. Seeing that many of his warships began to escape, he had no intention of stopping them. Instead, he issued an order to retreat or escape.

At this moment, there were no Sicilian warships willing to stay where they were waiting to die, and they turned and began to escape at full speed.

As for the Venetian navy, the Sith and the others couldn't care about it. As the saying goes, "If you die, you will not die." Now that the disaster is coming, you can only care about yourself.

When Ma Liang saw that the Sicilian naval army collapsed like this, he was a little surprised and couldn't help but murmur: "Is this the so-called elite naval army? It's just this little ability! I really overestimated them before!"

At this time, the officer rushed to Ma Liang, clasped his fists and said, "General, the enemy has fled. Do you want to order a pursuit?"

Ma Liang glanced at the Sicilian navy that was running away from his desperation, and then looked at the Venetian navy that was attacking Liu Xian's fleet. At this moment, the Venetian navy was madly attacking Liu Xian's fleet.

They had already broken through the Han army's artillery fire and many ships on both sides were intertwined and fought. Many Venetian navy troops jumped onto the Han army's ships to attack, screaming wildly, with amazing momentum.

However, as soon as they got on the boat, they were greeted by dense arrows. The Venetian navy was unable to gain a foothold and was hit by the powerful arrows flying towards them.

Even if you are not shot by arrows, you will be killed by the sudden surge of swords and guns!
