"Let's go, let's discuss it with General Chang..." Wood immediately got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom.
"Captain, alas..." Chebman sighed and followed.
After finding Chang Yuchun in the study, Wood explained the information he obtained to him one by one.
"General Chang, what do you think we should do? Our army can't defeat them, and we are no match for them when they can untie the rope underwater. Once the fleet from the Republic of Tas comes over, my fleet will not be able to fight back..."
Wood's face was worried.
Chang Yuchun touched his stubble, his little eyes also showed a cautious look. "I asked General Zheng to go there and see if we can relieve the siege..."
"This... can only be like this..." Wood stood up at this time, imitating Chang Yuchun and others, cupping his fists and saying: "Then I will go back first, maybe I can help..."
"Okay..." Chang Yuchun said, cupping his fists.
As soon as Wood left, Chang Yuchun used communication technology to notify Taoist Liu Shui and asked him to tell Zheng Zhilong to immediately dispatch a fleet to drive away the Tas Republic fleet from Jiabei City.
After Zheng Zhilong received the information, he did not dare to delay, so he immediately dispatched his fleet. It happened that they were not far from the port of Jiabei City. With the favorable wind, it only took half a day to reach their destination.
"General, look, the other side has ambushed so many sailors under the water..." On the deck in front of Tongyoujing, Taoist Liu Shui immediately reminded Zheng Zhilong after seeing the sudden situation.
"It's really insidious... If we don't have access to the Netherworld, I'm afraid if we break in, then these sailors will jump up and engage in a battle with us... Then their fleet will rush forward, and ours will
The firepower advantage will be gone..."
Zheng Zhilong frowned and analyzed. It seemed that the commander of the other party already knew that they were coming. That was why they had this ambush. They just didn't know that they had the Nether Realm and could detect the situation under the water...
"In that case, let's use torpedoes..." Zheng Zhilong said.
"General, don't..." Taoist priest Liu Shui suddenly stopped Zheng Zhilong. Faced with Zheng Zhilong's confusion, he expressed his worries.
"Look at their number, at least 3,000. How long will it take to blow them up with torpedoes? Besides, torpedoes are not cheap. Each one requires 100 points of spiritual energy. These 3,000 people will consume 300,000 points of spiritual energy..."
"What you said makes some sense..." Zheng Zhilong frowned, "If we don't use torpedoes, what can we use to deal with these sailors under the water?"
"They are not the sailors from the Tassie Islands who can only float on the water and use artillery to deal with them. These sailors are more than ten meters underwater, so the artillery may not be very effective..." Zheng Zhilong frowned more and more, "If we
If there is also a 'Legion of Sea Beasts', this would be much simpler..."
Soon, Taoist Liu Shui's eyes suddenly lit up and he said: "General, why don't you use the first-generation mines? They only require 10 points of spiritual energy, and they don't require my control. They can be used in large quantities. Why don't you use them, general?"
After hearing this, Zheng Zhilong clapped his hands vigorously, "Taoist Master Liushui is right..."
"But the number of mines is not very large now. I need to notify the blacksmithing union to hurry up and make them..." Zheng Zhilong immediately clicked on the light screen to start, and put the mines that were about to be canceled into the construction sequence again.
"General Zheng, look, those sailors swam towards us. It must be because we stayed here for too long and aroused their suspicion..." Taoist Liu Shui pointed at Tongyou Realm.
"We retreat and come back later..." The construction of mines takes time, and the mine warships also need to be modified, so Zheng Zhilong retreated without hesitation and informed Chang Yuchun of the current situation.
On the fleet flagship of the Republic of Tas, the adjutant said in surprise: "The captain is really awesome, and the fleet of the Tenglong Kingdom is not that good, so you scared me off..."
Prajadil frowned tightly at this time. He didn't seem to hear the adjutant's compliment and just murmured in a low voice, "You actually retreated like that? It's really strange... Could it be that you discovered my ambush?"
"How long until the marshal arrives?" Pagadir asked.
"There's still one day left..." the adjutant replied immediately. He was always calculating the time for the arrival of the large army.
"I hope it will be faster, I have a bad feeling..." Pajadil said to himself softly as he watched the Tenglong Kingdom fleet leave.
At this time, there were some small waves on the sea, and the sailors under the sea also swam to the sea surface under the captain's order. Their mission was over, and they all began to return to the ship.
I saw that they were all wearing masks similar to woven algae covering their mouths and noses, which did not loosen at all under the beating of the sea water.
Algae breathing mask, a tool that allows people to breathe underwater for a long time, is a specialty of Coral Island.
The time dragged on until night. At this time, there were few stars in the sky and there was only hazy night between the sky and the earth. Zheng Zhilong's fleet with torches once again appeared in front of Pajadir.
"Captain, the Tenglong Kingdom's fleet has actually arrived again, and it's still at night. They want to sneak attack us. Do you think our sailors can't see clearly underwater?" The adjutant sneered, seeming to see through the Tenglong Kingdom's intentions, thinking that the sea surface
I can't see the direction clearly, so the water ghost division can only become a decoration.
But then the adjutant denied his guess, "No, they might not even know about our water ghost division. They must have come here as a last resort under the commander's order..."
The adjutant's eyes became more contemptuous at this moment...
"Well, no matter what they think, now that the decision has been made, we will compete with them. It's just a pity that they don't understand the fighting methods of Coral State Island..." Pajadir hissed, "They will fight on Coral Island..."
You will pay an unforgettable price tonight..."
"The Water Ghost Division of Coral Island is dispatched...the fleet is ready to support..."
Prajadir's order was quickly implemented. In the past few days, everyone admired Prajadir's strategy. Even the adjutant who disliked him changed his attitude.
Groups of Coral Island sailors jumped from the ship into the sea, with a trumpet-shaped plant tied to their heads and a blue shiny bead inside the plant.
After jumping into the water, the blue light shot out far in the direction of the speaker. However, the strange thing was that the blue light did not shine out of the sea at all. From the sky, the blue light under the water could not be seen at all.
Horn coral lamp, underwater lighting lamp, a specialty of Coral Island.
However, no matter how well they were hidden, Taoist Liu Shui still easily discovered them.
The Taoist Liu Shui looked at Tongyou Realm for a while, and then looked at the sea surface. He found that it was very bright under the water, but it was still dark on the sea surface. He was slightly stunned, and smiled: "It's really interesting equipment..."
"General Zheng, they are coming..." Taoist Liu Shui reminded him by the way.
"Okay, let's send out the torpedo warships..."
As Zheng Zhilong's order was issued, trainer Nal immediately conveyed his order through the rap parrot.
After a while, 20 mine ships transformed from Haicang Ship appeared in front of the fleet. Each of them was loaded with 6 trebuchets and 50 mines, a total of 6,000 mines. They could launch 120 mines at a time, which could already cover a large area.
All sea areas are covered.
"Taoist Priest, would you like to tell us which place has more people? If there are less people, it's not worth wasting the mines, right?" Seeing that everything was ready, Zheng Zhilong thought about how to save money.
"Easy to say, easy to say..." The Taoist priest smiled and nodded slightly.
When both parties thought they were sure of victory, the torpedo warships met the water ghost division of Coral Island.
"put……"
Under the command of Zheng Zhilong, the captain of the mine warship immediately asked the gunners to throw mines at the designated location.
For a time, countless round mines the size of black millstones were thrown into the sky, and then fell into the sea water together.
The sailors under the water looked up and saw countless blue light beams shooting at the mines that had fallen into the water, illuminating the mines clearly.
"What is this?" a Coral Island sailor asked in sign language. This is an underwater language invented by Coral Island fishermen, and later developed into the communication language of all fishermen and deaf-mute people in the Republic of Tasmania.
"I don't know, it seems to want to kill us... But it is so slow, there must be air..." A sailor gestured quickly, but in just a moment, there were several mines surrounding him.
"They will definitely be able to find us. We have to report it to the captain..."
Before a sailor could finish his gesture, all the mines exploded simultaneously.
The fire flickered for a moment, and when viewed from the boat, it looked like countless suns rising from the bottom of the sea, and then disappeared in less than two seconds.
It seemed like a beautiful scene, but to the sailors underwater, it looked like the most terrifying end of the world. The sailors who were closer were directly swallowed up by the fire, and the sailors who were farther away were blown away by the shock wave of water pressure. They suddenly bled from all their orifices and their internal organs were directly shocked.
If it is further away, it will be hit or even pierced by the flying fragments.
Looking around for a moment, there were corpses floating in the sea everywhere, and everyone died in horror.
Plop... Plop... Plop...
The remaining people who were still alive saw black mines falling from the sea again, and everyone was shocked.
Without being greeted by others, he immediately swam back.
Plop... Plop... Plop...
Black mines suddenly appeared behind them. In their horrified eyes, all the mines exploded again...
Human bodies cannot be compared with those of ocean monsters. As long as they are within the explosion range of mines, they will either die or be seriously injured. So much so that the "Water Ghost Division" of Coral Island suffered heavy losses in these two attacks.
"General Zheng, they have escaped, do you want to pursue them..." Taoist priest Liu Shui reported the latest situation.
"Well... let's go after it... prepare the artillery..." Zheng Zhilong nodded and ordered.
The Ming fleet began to spread out its formation and pounced on Pajadeer's fleet like a big net.
"What is that?" Pajadil stood on the side of the ship, staring at the bright light on the bottom of the sea with his big eyes. There was no worry or heartache in his eyes, only child-like doubts about new things.
