Chapter 372: The hands are tied and the wind is surging (revised)
Meteor Island soon received news of the battle between the Nanhai Navy and the enemy.
Yuwen Chengdu stood on the sand table, looking at the sea around the Nanhai Navy, frowning.
The Western Army of the Juling Dynasty had about 250,000 to 300,000 troops, and the number of troops fighting the Nanhai Navy was about 100,000.
In other words, there are still nearly 200,000 enemy troops who have not yet shown up.
Combined with the invisibility circle they discovered before, Yuwen Chengdu had a bad feeling in his heart.
"They are not coming to Meteor Island!" He said softly to several staff officers around him.
Several staff officers lowered their heads and fell into deep thought.
"Probably not. Now that we know the existence of the stealth formation, and the Xihai Navy has built a complete search line in front, they should not be able to break through the search line!" said a staff officer.
Yuwen Chengdu thought for a moment and said, "What if they go around the back!"
He pointed to the location behind the Sandpan Meteor Island.
Several staff officers were slightly startled.
Back around!
It's not impossible!
However, it would take a lot of time to bypass the Xihai Navy's search line.
"But they can't go around the East!"
Another staff officer spoke.
Two hundred miles to the east of Meteor Island is Nubo Island, where the Hundred Stars Dynasty is located. There are two million troops gathered around Nubo Island, and it is simply impossible to go around.
"What about the West!" A strange color flashed in Yuwen Chengdu's eyes.
"There are Beihai navy in the west!"
"Beihai Navy!" Yuwen Chengdu took a deep breath, his heart suddenly lifted.
At his reminder, the expressions of several staff officers suddenly changed.
The Beihai Navy is the army they arranged to circle back and cut off the enemy's retreat. Will the enemy army also circle back and attack Meteorite Island?
It's not impossible!
Since the east cannot be bypassed, the enemy is likely to choose the west.
As a result, the Beihai Navy has a high probability of colliding with the enemy.
If they really collide, the result is likely to be a disastrous defeat for the Beihai Navy.
Yuwen Chengdu pondered for a long time, this possibility is very high.
Because since the other party has chosen to start a war, they will definitely not avoid fighting at this time.
Now they have only found about 100,000 enemy troops, which shows that the enemy troops are probably carrying out plans that they are unaware of.
To capture the thief, capture the king first, and the other party also knows this truth.
Therefore, it is not impossible for them to rely on the invisible magic circle to surprise Falling Star Island.
"Sir! We must take precautions!"
A staff officer said.
"Deploy the West Sea Navy to support the South China Sea Navy!" Yuwen Chengdu suddenly said.
"Why?" Several staff officers were a little confused.
Logically speaking, shouldn’t we go to support the Beihai Navy first?
Yuwen Chengdu explained: "Because the Nanhai Navy is less than 80 miles away from us, even if the opponent wants to sneak attack on Meteor Island, they can come back in time to help!"
"Also send a message to the Nanhai Navy to ask them to act with caution!"
Plans are never as good as changes. Originally, the Nanhai Navy was the backup arranged by the General Staff, but now the Nanhai Navy is very likely to encounter the main force of the enemy's West Route Army.
Several staff members thought for a while and nodded, "Your Excellency, you have considered everything carefully. The most important thing now is to ensure the safety of Meteor Island."
But at this moment, a voice came from outside the door.
"Don't worry about the safety of Meteor Island, I'm not that weak!"
Qin Wei walked in from the door and said calmly.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
When everyone saw him, they quickly bowed and saluted.
Qin Wei waved his hand and said, "You are too careful."
He had not paid attention to the staff's concerns before, but now he had to stand up.
The staff put his safety first, which made him very satisfied, but the battle could not be fought like this.
If the staff is tied up because of his presence, then he might as well not come.
"His Majesty!"
Yuwen Chengdu wanted to speak, but Qin Wei interrupted him and said: "I know what you are worried about, but you have forgotten that I am not a weak person!"
"Besides, I have Dali's strongest person beside me. If the other party can still kill me in this situation, then I, Dali, will just admit defeat!"
It's one thing to pay attention to it, but it's another thing to be restrained by it.
As Qin Wei said, this time the Dali Enshrining Courtyard was almost in full force. If they couldn't even deal with a large Western army from the Juling Dynasty, then why start a war?
"If they want to come to me, I will go and meet them first!"
"Pass an order to the West Sea Navy to support the South Sea Navy. We will go directly to the Beihai Navy!"
Qin Wei smiled softly and said: "If they want to make a sneak attack, we can't give them a chance. We have to fight the opponent in a decisive battle!"
He already knew about the battle between the Nanhai Navy and the enemy. Facing a powerful weapon like a psychic cannon, Dali must be determined to fight to the death.
If you restrain your hands, it will only make the situation even more unfavorable to Dali.
It's not that Yuwen Chengdu and the other staff didn't understand this truth, but they didn't dare to take risks with His Majesty Qin Wei.
Otherwise, if something goes wrong, you will be blamed for it.
Therefore, this matter can only be done if Qin Wei comes forward in person and issues the decree in person.
Yuwen Chengdu was not a troubled person. Seeing what Qin Wei said, he immediately said: "I obey the order!"
Qin Wei nodded with satisfaction and said: "Then get ready. In an hour, the army will go to sea!"
Time is running out and they must go to sea as soon as possible.
Of course, just because they went to sea didn't mean they gave up the camp on Meteorite Island. The Meteorite Island camp also shouldered the logistical tasks of Dali's army.
…
On the battlefield.
The Nanhai Navy has been completely engaged in a melee with the enemy.
The two sides were intertwined like chaotic hemp ropes, and the Djinn Dynasty's gunboat had sunk to the bottom of the sea.
The flames of war were raging on the sea, and the sound of fighting echoed in the sky and sea.
There were more than 2,000 warships on both sides, and the battlefield spread over a distance of 20 to 30 miles on the sea.
More than a dozen soldiers from the Jizhao Realm were fighting in the sky, and countless soldiers were fighting to the death on the sea.
The battle has entered its most intense stage, but it will take a long time to end.
On the warship, Liu Zhen looked at the chaotic battlefield, his eyes flashing with sharp light.
"Come here, follow me to the battle!"
"General!" Several personal guards around him wanted to stop him from going to battle.
"Shut up!"
Liu Zhen shouted angrily, "Bring my general's battle flag over here!"
Now they have no reserve army and have pressed forward almost all the combat troops. The only ones who have not yet participated in the battle are him and the thousands of personal guards around him.
Besides, this situation no longer has any commanding significance.
The warships of both sides were intertwined like canine teeth, and the warships collided with each other. There was me among you, and you among me. It was impossible to command at all.
In this case, all command on the battlefield must be handed over to the lower-level military attachés. If they fight, how they fight depends entirely on the courage and will of the lower-level military attaches.
As for the coach, naval battles are not land battles. In land battles, the tooth flag must be guarded, because it is the symbol of the coach.
As for the naval battle, once it enters the state of boarding battle, the battle flags of each battalion are the focus of the soldiers.
They couldn't even see their coach Ya Qi who was far away from the battlefield.
Liu Zhen pulled off his cloak, revealing a black armor.
He took the battle flag from his bodyguard, waved it vigorously, and roared: "Charge forward!"
The personal guards could not stop him and could only drive the warship towards the battlefield.
"Kill~~"
"Kill~~"
On the battlefield, the shouts of killing were loud.
But Liu Zhen only felt his blood boiling.
A general will die in a hundred battles, and a strong man will return in ten years!
Recalling the battle in Nanyang City, the tragedy in his heart surged like a stormy sea.
That was the most tragic battle he had ever seen, although he was not the protagonist of the Battle of Nanyang City.
The protagonists between Nanyang City were Mao Jiang and Dongfang Yue Yue, and the Nanhai Navy at that time only served as reinforcements to block the Nanyuan River.
The reason why he felt tragic was because of the pain Mao Jiang endured in that battle.
That battle made him understand Mao Jiang's sacrifice for Dali.
But he envied Mao Jiang very much.
Because Mao Jiang got all the glory he could have in that battle.
Two generations of Li Emperors valued him, and the entire dynasty's civil and military officials admired him. To this day, no one in the entire Dali Court dares to say, "Marquis Chang Ping is disloyal."
As a general, especially the commander-in-chief of the four major naval forces in Dali, Liu Zhen has always been holding a fire in his heart.
Because he has never been able to use it.
After Dali entered the Yuluo Sea, the Donghai Navy attacked one after another. The North Sea Navy also showed its prowess in the spiritual sea. However, their Nanhai Navy was obviously one of Dali's three major naval forces, but they never had a chance to fight.
.
As for the Xihai Navy, the predecessor of the Xihai Navy was the Qinghanjiang Navy. Liu Zhen expressed his disdain for those navy who wandered in the rivers.
Now that he finally put on armor and went into battle, he not only felt the excitement in his heart, but also realized the tragedy of the battle in Nanyang City.
Seeing that the warship had entered the warship, Liu Zhen grinned.
"Come on!"
He waved the flagpole, jumped up, and jumped directly onto the enemy's warship.
He started killing like a madman.
…
On the sky.
The battle between powerful men in the Jizhao Realm caused the sky to tremble.
Taoist Tongxin held a thunderbolt and violently collided with Zhang Daoling like a god of thunder.
Zhang Daoling is good at swordsmanship, but his swordsmanship is different from ordinary swordsmanship. His swordsmanship seems to incorporate the Confucian golden mean.
The destiny of heaven is called nature, the will of nature is called Tao, and the cultivation of Tao is called teaching.
To achieve neutrality, the heaven will have its place, and all things will be nurtured.
Based on inner balance, we pay attention to moderation, integrity, self-denial, etc. in every move.
Therefore, Zhang Daoling's sword is not very sharp, but full of neutrality and peace.
But this kind of righteousness and peace is like a turtle shell, giving people a feeling that there are no weaknesses or loopholes.
There is no doubt that Tongxin Taoists are very powerful.
Especially his Taoist thunder method, the attack power is extremely sharp.
In the same realm, few people can match his thunder technique. However, facing Zhang Daoling, who seems to have no characteristics, his thunder technique seems to have encountered a nemesis, and he cannot make any progress.
Faced with this situation, Taoist Tongxin was not in a hurry. He just kept colliding with Zhang Daoling, as if he wanted to use Zhang Daoling to hone his own artistic conception.
And Zhang Daoling was not as relaxed as he seemed.
He is good at defense, even if he is facing a strong person at the fourth level of Divine Realm, he still has the confidence to support him for a moment.
But facing Taoist Tongxin's Lei Fa, he was in a very difficult situation.
Every attack of Taoist Tongxin carries an extremely sharp thunder method. If he relaxes a little, he may be hit by the thunder method and die on the spot.
The longer this dangerous battle lasts, the worse it will be for him.
However, he had nothing to do against Taoist Tongxin, so he could only try his best to resist Taoist Tongxin's attack.
"I know who you are!"
After once again blocking Taoist Tongxin's attack, Zhang Daoling suddenly spoke.
Taoist Tongxin's hands flashed with lightning, and his deep eyes were filled with bright lightning.
"Oh, you know Pindao!"
"Taoist Tongxin, the most powerful man in the Yuluo Sea!" Zhang Daoling said.
Taoist Tongxin is not an unknown person. Although his fame has not spread to the Giant Spirit Dynasty, since Zhang Daoling knows that he will fight with the Sky Alliance, he naturally knows the powerful people in Yuluo Sea.
"Hahaha~~ That was before, now Pindao is not the strongest person!"
As he spoke, the thunder in Taoist Tongxin's hand exploded, and the bright brilliance illuminated the sky.
Thunder is rolling, thundering in all directions!
The strongest one!
Tongxin Taoists don't care at all about this title.
All he cares about is whether he can break through to the fourth level of the divine realm.
Speaking of which, he was only one step away from breaking through.
Before Qin Wei gave him the Bailian Dao Heart Pill, he had tried to break through the bottleneck of the third level of Divine Intention, but unfortunately he had not succeeded.
But now he seems to feel that the threshold blocking him is loosening.
The lightning suddenly appeared, and Zhang Daoling burst out with strong sword energy to block.
At this moment, Taoist Tongxin suddenly paused and asked, "Why is your sword so peaceful?"
Zhang Daoling was slightly stunned, "Because my heart is so peaceful!"
Taoist Tongxin's eyes lit up.
Hahaha~~~
Hahaha~~
He laughed.
Laughing extremely freely.
"I understand!"
"I see!"
Taoist Tongxin looked at Zhang Daoling inexplicably.
"What did you understand?" Zhang Daoling was puzzled.
Taoist Tongxin did not explain, but said: "You go!"
"Let's go!" Zhang Daoling was even more puzzled.
Taoist Tongxin took a deep breath, and the lightning in his hands flickered.
"If you don't leave, you won't have a chance!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the thunder in his hand exploded again.
The next moment, the wind and clouds in the sky changed.
Countless dark clouds suddenly appeared in the originally empty sky.
"The wind is blowing!"
"Yunlai!"
A loud voice exploded from Taoist Tongxin's mouth.
At the same time, the aura of Taoist Tongxin became more and more intense and thick.
The wind and clouds surged, tugging at Taoist Tongxin's robes and making a loud sound, making his beard and hair fly.
Taoist Tongxin was suspended under the thick clouds, with lightning lingering around him, like a god of thunder coming to the world.
“With harmony we bring about harmony in heaven!”
"The state of mind is the same, and the nature is truly harmonious."
"Be sincere in your heart, and feel inspired by heaven!"
"Haha, thank you for your advice!"
Taoist Tongxin bowed his hands to Zhang Daoling.
Zhang Daoling was completely stunned.
"You, you made a breakthrough!"
He looked at the Tongxin Taoist in disbelief.
Just because of what he said, Tongxin Taoist had a breakthrough!
Taoist Tongxin waved his sleeves, and thousands of thunders appeared, "That's right!"
To say that one sentence made him break through is actually a bit exaggerated.
What made him break through was not just Zhang Daoling's words, but his lifelong understanding and accumulation of Lei Fa's artistic conception.
All he lacked was an opportunity.
This opportunity may be a word, a gust of wind, a thunderstorm, or an insignificant thing.
Or it should be said that what he lacked was just a heart-pounding moment.
What Zhang Daoling said just now made his heart move.
Of course this is not without reason.
Zhang Daoling's words mean that he is in a peaceful state of mind, so his sword can be peaceful.
And Tongxin Taoists realized from this that man and nature are in harmony.
The two have certain similarities, so they can become opportunities for Tongxin Taoists to make breakthroughs.
