The flagship was parked behind hundreds of warships, far away from the dock of Riheiling Island. Lu Zhiqing frowned slightly.
With narrow waterways and tightly guarded docks, this will undoubtedly be a difficult battle.
Moreover, he was no longer allowed to think too much at this time. He had to shoot when the arrow was on the string. Delaying time was not a good thing for him.
"attack!"
Lu Zhiqing gave the order to attack without hesitation.
As the dull horn sounded, the three warships at the entrance of the waterway immediately launched an attack on the dock.
At the same time, hundreds of small boats rowed towards Heiling Island from the reef areas on both sides of the waterway.
The landing operation itself is an unfair battle, and the landing party must face the enemy's obstruction.
Seeing Dali's navy launch an attack, the Blackfish Bandits on the island were ready for battle.
But what the Blackfish Pirates didn't expect was that the Donghai Navy's warships were still within their firing range. The three warships had already turned and were lying sideways on the waterway, facing them with broadsides. There were also warships following.
Slowly drive into the waterway.
In just a moment, more than a dozen warships filled the narrow waterway, and their gleaming crossbow arrows were pointed directly at the dock.
"Their crossbows have a farther range than ours!" Xia Shanhai said urgently.
He had forgotten about it just now, but now when he saw the Donghai Navy's formation on the waterway, he immediately remembered it.
Ming Zhengping's expression froze.
Longer range!
Doesn’t this mean that they can only be beaten passively!
At this moment, sharp blasts of sound echoed in the sky.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~
The inch-thick crossbow arrow drew an arc in the sky, and then hit the dock hard.
The next moment.
There were bursts of screams and exclamations on the dock.
Hundreds of crossbow arrows rained down, and many unlucky ones became dead souls under the arrows.
Seeing this scene, Ming Zhengping's face became extremely ugly.
This is the first time he has encountered this situation. In the surrounding sea area, everyone's crossbows are basically at the same level. No one force's crossbows have ever had an advantage in range.
In fact, in several surrounding sea areas, the manufacturing of crossbows by all parties has entered a bottleneck state, and it is difficult to improve.
It's not that they can't make more powerful crossbows with a longer range, but it means that they can't mass-produce more powerful crossbows with a longer range.
Crossbows are the most commonly used long-range weapons in naval battles, but generally the power of crossbows can only be revealed when the number reaches a certain scale.
If there are only a few crossbows, no matter how far the range is and how powerful the power is, it will be difficult to achieve a decisive effect.
Moreover, the precious materials consumed to make a more powerful crossbow cannot be afforded by ordinary forces.
To put it simply, the crossbows made of ordinary materials have reached their limits, and the use of precious materials to make crossbows is not worth the gain. This has resulted in the range and power of the crossbows of all forces being at the same level.
And Dali possesses the mechanism technique of Gongshuqiu. With the blessing of the mechanism technique, even if it uses ordinary materials, the range and power of the crossbow are greater than that of ordinary crossbows.
Occupying the long-range advantage, after a few rapid-fire rounds by Dalishui, the thieves on the dock were suppressed to the point where they could not lift their heads.
Ming Zhengping's face was gloomy to the extreme. Faced with this situation, he had no other option. The range was inferior to others, so he could only passively take the beating.
"Commander, do we want it?" Xia Shanhai suggested.
In this situation, only the powerful ones in the Jingzhao Realm can take action. Otherwise, if this continues, their losses will only get bigger and bigger.
Just when Ming Zhengping was about to agree, Mingchen next to him suddenly said: "Uncle, there is a psychic cannon on my nephew's ship!"
"Really!" Ming Zhengping's eyes lit up.
The psychic cannon is a magical weapon that can carry out long-range attacks. It is a magical weapon that is forged by combining more than ten kinds of magical formations with weapon refining techniques.
Even with the lowest-end psychic cannon, one bombardment is comparable to a full-strength blow in the early stages of the Jizhao Realm. Even a strong person in the Jizhao Realm must be cautious when facing a psychic cannon, and try not to resist forcefully.
However, although the power of the psychic cannon is great, it also consumes a lot of energy. One cannon strike is a piece of spiritual stone.
This kind of consumption is not something that ordinary forces can afford.
Moreover, the value of the psychic cannon is extremely valuable, and ordinary forces cannot afford it at all. At least there are very few forces in the Yuluo Sea, Spiritual Sea, and Beichen Sea that have psychic cannons.
"Sorry for bothering my nephew!" Ming Zhengping said with a smile.
Mingchen's lips curled up slightly and he said, "It's just a small matter."
After saying that, he winked at the guard next to him.
Immediately, the guards ran onto Mingchen's ship, and a few minutes later, a bright light suddenly flashed on the bow of the ship.
The next moment.
A beam of light suddenly shot out and hit Dali's warship.
Boom~~
With a loud explosion, Dali's warship turned into countless fragments and shot out like paper.
With just one blow, one warship was completely destroyed, and the four surrounding warships also suffered considerable damage. Hundreds of soldiers were killed or injured.
This scene shocked all the soldiers of Dalishui Division.
They have never seen such a powerful weapon!
If it weren't for the strict military discipline of the Donghai Navy, this blow would have been enough to shake the morale of the Dali Navy.
The unknown existence is the most terrifying, and this terrifying and unknown weapon makes people even more frightened.
"What is that?"
Even Lu Zhiqing was dumbfounded.
At this time, the soldiers of Dali were like a bunch of bumpkins. In fact, compared with the Juling Dynasty, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Dali Dynasty was bumpkin.
"Psychic cannon!" Taoist Tongxin solved Lu Zhiqing's doubts and explained: "A magical weapon that explodes with powerful attack power at the cost of consuming spiritual stones."
Taoist Tongxin frowned and said, "This shouldn't be from Heiyu Island!"
"Why?" Lu Zhiqing asked.
Tongxin Taoist said: "A spiritual cannon costs at least five thousand spiritual stones, and each attack consumes one spiritual stone."
"..."
Lu Zhiqing was stunned for a moment.
Spiritual stone!
He had only heard of this thing, but had never seen it before. He only knew that the spirit stone was very precious, even His Majesty Qin Wei regarded it as a treasure.
But the other party actually used a spiritual stone to destroy one of his warships!
A warship only costs tens of thousands of taels of silver, but spiritual stones are something that cannot be bought with money!
Damn, the other person is crazy!
Just as the two were talking, another beam of light was shot out, and another warship was bombarded into rubble, and hundreds of soldiers were reduced to cannon fodder.
"Damn it!"
Lu Zhiqing cursed secretly.
There was a cold light in his eyes, and his expression became increasingly ugly.
Just these two shots wiped out all their advantages!
what to do?
Lu Zhiqing felt a little overwhelmed for a moment.
He knew too little about psychic cannons to make an accurate judgment.
His eyes swept across the warships in front of him, and suddenly his expression condensed, and he saw the small boats that had entered the reef area.
"You can't be beaten, you have to rush forward!"
Originally, he wanted to rely on the advantage of the crossbow to consume the enemy's strength, but now their advantage is no longer there, and the situation of both sides has reversed. In this case, naturally they cannot continue to shoot at each other.
"Send the order and prepare to charge!"
He shouted.
"Here!"
The bodyguard behind him immediately responded.
Then Lu Zhiqing said to Taoist Tongxin behind him: "Can Taoist Master block that psychic cannon?"
"No problem!" Master Tongxin nodded.
The power of the psychic cannon is extraordinary, but the two cannons just now do not pose much of a threat to Tongxin Taoists.
"Then I'll trouble you all!" Lu Zhiqing said.
Taoist Tongxin and Xiong Ba looked at each other and nodded slightly.
The key to determining the outcome of the battle is not the ships and soldiers, but the powerful ones in the Silent Light Realm.
The situation in front of them has reached the point where they should take action.
"Everyone, be careful!" Xiongba said calmly.
"The old Taoist will deal with the psychic cannon first!" Taoist Tongxin said.
"Wait a minute, senior, can you please stop destroying the psychic cannon!" Yuwen Chengdu couldn't help but interrupt.
Psychic cannon!
This is something Dali doesn't have, and it's also something Dali needs.
If he could get one, it might be of great benefit to Dali.
With such a powerful weapon, Yuwen Chengdu, as the Minister of Military and Aircraft, was naturally tempted by it.
"Can!"
Taoist Tongxin nodded.
Afterwards.
He then jumped up and rushed directly into the area where the two sides were fighting.
Just at this moment, the psychic cannon exploded for the third time.
Seeing that the bright beam of light was about to fall on the warship, Taoist Tongxin's figure suddenly appeared in front of the warship.
"Thunder!"
Thunder light flashed in the palm, and surging energy fluctuations poured out.
It collided with the light beam with a bang.
In an instant.
A group of terrifying energy fluctuations spread in all directions, setting off a wave more than ten meters high, pushing the surrounding warships dozens of meters sideways, and almost overturning them.
However, even if they were not overturned, several warships also collided with each other, making the scene extremely chaotic. But no matter what, one warship was saved from being blown to pieces, and hundreds of soldiers got a chance to continue to live.
.
"The other party's powerful Jizhao Realm took action!"
Xia Shanhai looked at the figure blocking the psychic cannon and said solemnly.
A ferocious smile appeared on Ming Zhengping's face and he said: "Then what are you waiting for? Kill them for me!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, the smile on his face froze.
Not only him, but Xia Shanhai, Cheng Xian and others next to him also showed dull expressions.
I saw silhouettes flying out from the warship in front of me. The silhouettes all showed majestic aura and rich artistic conception. Without thinking, I knew that those silhouettes were all powerful men in the Silent Light Realm.
There are more than a dozen figures, which means more than a dozen powerful people in the Jingzhao Realm.
This situation was something they never expected.
Even Mingchen looked surprised. He didn't expect that he would encounter such a thing.
Perhaps the Giant Spirit Dynasty has many powerful people in the Silent Light Realm, but within the Giant Spirit Dynasty, the powerful people in the Silent Light Realm are still like the top of a pyramid.
There are two powerful people in the Jingzhao Realm around him as guards, but it does not mean that the status of these two powerful people in the Jingzhao Realm is lower than his, it is just because the Xulinghou Mansion paid a sufficient price to invite two strong people in the Jingzhao Realm.
And dispatching more than a dozen Jizhao Realm experts at once is something that the Xu Linghou Mansion cannot do.
"The bandits from Heiyu Island robbed our Dali merchant ship and tortured our people in Dali. They deserve to be punished for their crimes. Today, under your Majesty's order, we are here to destroy the bandits from Heiyu Island. You will know your crimes!"
Xiongba stood above the pier, overlooking the people below, and shouted in a loud voice.
The shouts were like thunder, spreading thousands of meters in an instant, covering almost the entire Heiling Island.
When Ming Zhengping heard this, he suddenly grinned.
"Hahaha~~"
"What the hell Dali, this is Black Spirit Island, not a place for your Dali Dynasty to show off its power!"
Ming Zhengping soared into the sky and stood at the same height as Xiongba.
The two looked at each other, exuding a strong chilling aura.
"You are the black fish head!"
"I am the master of Black Spirit Island!" Ming Zhengping said.
What black fish head?
How could such a name be worthy of him!
He is from the Xulinghou Mansion of the Giant Spirit Dynasty, and he is also the master of the Black Spirit Island!
Xiong Ba looked at Ming Zhengping indifferently.
Whether it's Black Fish Head or Black Spirit Island Master, it's just a title, it doesn't matter to Xiong Ba.
He only needs to know that the other party is the leader of these bandits.
"I don't know what the so-called things are, damn it!"
Xiongba sneered, suddenly raised his hand, and slapped his palms towards Ming Zhengping.
Cloud Expelling Palm!
One move is as powerful as overwhelming mountains and oceans, and the force of the palm is as violent as overwhelming mountains and oceans.
A dark cloud covers the sun, attracting the power of heaven and earth, and merges with the black energy on Xiongba's body, like a dark cloud falling straight down
A cloud of calamity descended from the sky, carrying terrifying energy. It descended from a high position, turned into a giant palm, and grabbed Ming Zhengping.
When Ming Zhengping saw this, his expression immediately changed.
He only felt a chill spreading from his heels throughout his body, and the terrifying pressure made him feel suffocated.
Without any time to think, he flew back.
"Who are you?"
Ming Zhengping felt extremely frightened as soon as Xiongba made a move. The combination of those few palm moves and the changes that caused the world were really terrifying.
"Xiongba, the director of Dali Worship Court!"
Xiong Ba missed one blow and didn't care at all, and then struck out with a few more palms.
A wave in the sea of clouds, with softness in the middle and hardness in the softness, just like the waves in the sea, hardness and softness at the same time.
The clouds in one form are indistinct, and the energy of yin and yang is ethereal and indeterminate, making it difficult to grasp.
In line with the pace of the phantom, the figure of the tyrant is like a ghost, erratic like a virtual cloud.
Bang~~
A gust of palm wind struck Ming Zhengping hard on his back as he was caught off guard.
"You are too weak!"
Xiongba's loud voice sounded, his tone full of disdain and disappointment.
In terms of cultivation, both of them are in the late stage of Jizhao Realm and the third level of Divine Intention Realm. However, in terms of combat ability, Xiong Ba completely beats Ming Zhengping.
With just a few moves, Ming Zhengping was not only at a disadvantage, but was also slapped down from the sky by Xiong Ba.
With a bang, it hit the ground, dust flew up, rocks flew, and everyone around was stunned.
Ming Zhengping was defeated like this!
Defeated without any power to fight back!
Everyone showed incredulous looks, even Taoist Tongxin standing next to the psychic cannon was stunned.
