Chapter nine hundred and thirty-eight times of naval warfare
"General Qin!"
Luo Qianlin stood up, held the King's Blade, and asked: "How many warships does the Dragon Army have in total?"
Qin Ye knelt down on the ground, clasped his fists and said: "There are a total of 70 warships, each of which can carry 500 combatants and 10 huge guns. There are also 120 medium-sized warships, each of which can carry 300 combatants and huge cannons.
4 gates, and the Jiaolong Army requisitioned the merchant ships in Wushen River and Luhu and transformed them into about 300 warships. The total number of warships owned by the Jiaolong Army has exceeded 500."
Luo Qianlin smiled slightly: "Very good, this is the number I want. Since we have decided to attack, we cannot let an army of Qin Ye's dragon army go into battle. Every punch will hit. The empire will no longer fight uncertain battles, and
Which general is willing to go to war with the Dragon Army? According to General Qin Ye's statement, the warships owned by the Dragon Army are enough to carry tens of thousands more people."
I immediately cupped my fists and said, "Your Majesty, the Royal Forest Army is willing to fight together with the Dragon Army!"
"Oh?" Luo Qianlin said in surprise: "It's great that Master Li is willing to go out in person to fight. However, the Royal Forest Army is not a navy army. It is not as familiar with water warfare as the Dragon Army. Let's just go with 20,000 Yulin Army members!"
"good."
As soon as I finished speaking, Fang Geque, who was standing behind Long Zhong of the Yanlong Army, walked to the carpet with a paper fan in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, I am also willing to lead a group of Yanlong Army into battle."
Luo Qianlin smiled slightly: "General Fang also wants to fight? Well, King Gu has agreed, and the Yanlong Army will send another 20,000 people, controlled by General Fang, to join the naval battle."
Long Zhong frowned and said, "Your Majesty, the general wants to go out in person. Fang Geque is not familiar with water warfare. I'm afraid I might make a mistake."
Luo Qianlin waved his hand and said: "General Long is the commander of the Yanlong Army. You cannot move lightly. Let General Fang, the captain of ten thousand men, take your place in the expedition. This matter has been decided, so let's do it!"
I added: "Your Majesty, the Yulin Army mobilized 20,000 elites to participate in the water battle, but our warships are far away in the Wushen River and cannot be dispatched, so we need to borrow the warships of the Jiaolong Army. I hope General Qin Ye can dispatch 20 warships and 30 warships
Give us medium-sized battleships. In addition, the battleships must be fully equipped with large cannons and other equipment."
Luo Qianlin looked at Qin Ye and said: "General Qin, you must listen clearly to what Duke Broken Ding said, and you must not neglect it. Otherwise, military law will be enacted. This naval attack must be kept secret. King Gu appointed General Li Shi as the commander of this battle."
As the highest command, General Qin Ye and General Fang must obey Master Li's arrangements."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Qin Ye cupped his fists and shouted, while Fang Geque smiled slightly: "I know."
…
After leaving the camp, I asked Lin Wan'er to go back to the Dragon Slaying Position, while I took Han Yuan and Xiao Li to select 20,000 elite soldiers from the Royal Forest Army. Han Yuan said helplessly: "General, that's how we go.
Is that so? The general always feels that...Qin Ye will not choose a very good warship for us, even a stern warship has its advantages and disadvantages."
I nodded: "Yes, so you and Xiao Li immediately dispatched troops to transport 200 dragon crystal cannons and a sufficient amount of dragon crystal cannon shells to Luhu Harbor. Qin Ye will definitely not equip us with a sufficient number of dragon crystal cannons.
We need to do this ourselves. Besides, the Dragon Crystal Cannon shells that the Dragon Army received from the munitions depot were not many in the first place. They are not as good as the 10% we have in Fan Book City. The most important thing about naval battles is artillery fire, so go for it!
"
"Yes, General!"
The Royal Forest Army's heavy camp, with 200 dragon crystal cannons each pressing 8 iron carts, quickly entered the official road driven by the war horses, and then galloped on the flat road towards Luhu. Behind us were the elites of the 2W Imperial Forest Army.
Among them, the Barbarian Sword and Shield Battalion and the Dark Moon Spirit's bow and arrow battalion are the main ones. The Sword and Shield Battalion is mainly for defense, and the Dark Moon Spirit's two ships are shooting at close range, which is more advantageous in naval battles.
About 20 minutes later, they arrived at Luhu Harbor, which is the largest military harbor in the empire. Under the strong walls, warships sailed out of the harbor one after another and docked on the shore. The Yanlong Army led by Fang Geque had also arrived.
, coupled with the original 50,000 troops of the Dragon Army and the people of the Yulin Army, the total strength of this naval battle has exceeded 100,000 people. 500 warships lined up on the seaside, with no end in sight, and it was a spectacular sight.
Not far away, a group of cavalry from the Jiaolong Army came on horseback. The Jiaolong Army was the imperial navy, and the total number of cavalry did not exceed 5,000. The horses were extremely rare, but the number of warships already exceeded the entire Tianling City.
Well, I originally thought that the Royal Forest Army’s nearly 200 warships were the strongest navy in the empire, but I didn’t expect that after a system refresh, the Dragon Army would suddenly become the number one.
Qin Ye rode his horse at the front and came over to greet him. He clasped his fists and smiled and said: "General Li Xiaoyao, it's been a long time. The 50 warships prepared by the general for the Royal Forest Army have been docked. The sailors, cannons, and shells have been given to you.
Already prepared."
I nodded: "Okay! Han Yuan Xiaoli, take over the warship."
"Yes, General!"
The Royal Forest Army marched quickly to the shore, and the dust kicked up by the dragon crystal cannon behind them rose into the sky. When we arrived at the beach, we also saw our warship. The warship can indeed be called a giant ship. The huge hull looks like
It looks like a small mountain. The hull is wrapped with iron sheets, which can defend against rockets, collisions and other tactics. Each warship has 10 giant cannons, but we are equipped with only 3 dragon crystal cannons and 7 ordinary cannons.
Artillery, the power of the artillery is too small, not even as good as the fire rock cannon. I couldn't help frowning and said: "Unplug all the artillery and add our dragon crystal cannon to make it faster."
"yes!"
Xiao Li gave an order, and the barbarians of the Royal Forest Army began to carry the equipment. The dragon crystal cannon was so heavy, but 20 barbarians actually used their natural power to carry the dragon crystal cannon back and forth like the wind. This power was simply scary.
In less than ten minutes, all the inferior artillery on the Yulin Army's warships were replaced with dragon crystal cannons, and a large number of artillery shells had been replenished. In the distance, the warships of the Yanlong Army and the Jiaolong Army had already raised their sails.
The soldiers were waving flags to tell us that preparations were complete. Han Yuan held up a long sword and said: "General, let's get on the boat?"
I nodded and said, "Lingluo, bring two hundred archers with me to the main ship!"
Lingluo smiled and said: "Yes, sir!"
Soon, everyone got on board one after another. Han Yuan and Xiao Li were on the warships on both sides of us, protecting the main warship in a triangular posture. The sails were raised, and the warship slowly left the coast. The wind was not strong, and night fell.
There is fog on the sea, which is great. It provides us with a natural barrier. Such conditions are more conducive to sneak attacks.
…
"drop!"
A message came from Lin Waner: "Dear, the fifth wave of strange demons is coming soon. Their warships are everywhere in front of the main battlefield. When will you set off?"
I replied: "We've already set off. We'll go back to the middle right away. It's up to you to kill the first half of the strange demons in the fifth wave."
"Well, I understand, you should also be careful."
"Know it!"
Turning off the communicator, I watched the warship enter the fog, but I felt a little uneasy in my heart. Luo Ding, the pioneer, claimed to have an army of one million, while Redding went to battle with him, and he had dozens of troops, if not millions.
Wan, our mere 100,000 naval forces came to sneak attack, which initially felt like an egg hitting a stone. However, we also have an ace in hand, which is our dragon crystal cannon. This is not available on the strange demon warships. Most of their warships are equipped with
They are just relatively inferior artillery pieces.
The warship cut through the waves and rushed towards the deep sea. When I opened the big map, I also found that the map on the south coast of the Sea of No Return turned into blood. This means that a tragic battle is taking place there, and the fifth wave of battle has begun.
.
…
"General!"
In the mist, Xiao Li shouted in a loud voice: "We are close to their transport warship, what should we do?"
I nodded and said: "Light the torch, rush over, use the dragon crystal cannon to entertain them well, confirm the enemy and friends, and don't accidentally damage friendly ships."
Han Yuan said: "General, don't worry, the torches lit in Tianling City are all tung oil fire, red flames, while the strange demon warships use dark fire torches, blue, which is easy to identify."
I smiled slightly: "Then just rush over and violently bombard the direction of the blue flames!"
"yes!"
…
"Wow..."
The warships belonging to Tianling City were full of sails. When the east wind picked up, the warships rushed towards the west of the Sea of No Return. In the mist, dense blue firelights appeared. The flames jumped violently and were particularly coquettish.
In the darkness, a sharp voice could be faintly heard shouting: "Why is that warship in the distance red with fire? Could it be the ship of those dog thieves in Tianling City?"
Another voice sounded: "How is it possible? The navy in Tianling City is a bunch of losers. Will they have the courage to compete with us on the Sea of No Return?!"
Before he finished speaking, the warship in the distance had opened fire. It was the dragon crystal cannon on the warship where Qin Ye was. Suddenly there was a "bang", and a strange demon warship was blown to pieces and broken from the middle. The fire shot into the sky.
The air waves blew all around, dispelling the fog invisible, and finally allowed us to see clearly. There were countless densely packed alien demon warships less than a hundred meters away from us. On the warships, each one was holding a hand.
Crossbow alien soldiers, 165 level 7 alien demons, and Demon Palace crossbowmen. These are the long-range troops in the Demon Palace. Their attack power is not generally high. The pressure on the Chinese players on the shore is definitely not a little bit high.
The air waves of the dragon crystal cannon blew away the fog on the sea, and with the moonlight, we could see each other more clearly. The two sides were silent for less than 10 seconds. I raised my hand and shouted in a low voice: "Rush over to me, keep bombarding!"
"
The main battleship was moving with full sail, and the barbarian soldiers on both sides adjusted the scales of the dragon crystal cannons, aiming at the strange demon warships on both sides and firing fiercely!
"Bang!"
There was another sound, and the entire bow of the strange demon warship that was sprinting towards us was blown to pieces. Each of the demon palace crossbowmen let out miserable howls and fell into the sea one by one in the air.
Not far away, the warships of the Dragon Army and the Flame Dragon Army also moved forward one after another, firing continuously. However, their firepower was definitely not as good as that of the Imperial Forest Army. After all, the dragon crystal cannons were limited, but even the fire rock cannons were enough for these strange monsters.
