Chapter 247, Naval Battle (1)
Overseas led four fleets with thousands of men to search for the bluestone, which was currently suspended two hundred feet in the air outside the circle surrounded by the six warships.
Although Yueyang is arrogant, he is not really ignorant and fearless. He is right. On this vast sea, armor that relies on spiritual energy to fly cannot last long. Even a high-level magic weapon like Xuanyuanjia can't last long. It can't fly fifty feet high and can't last for an hour.
However, Qingshi uses the Wings of Wind and Thunder martial skill, which uses his own wind and thunder energy as the driving force to fly. With Qingshi's current cultivation level, if he does not fight but just flies, then there is no problem in flying for a day and a night.
Qingshi naturally heard Yueyang's order. He didn't know that Yueyang also ambushed the fleet on the other three sides. Now, he heard that the other three fleets of warships were also surrounding them, and they also drove away a large number of Jiao and people. The dog dragon entered the water to search, and Qingshi knew that soon, the Xuanwei and Xuanhu underwater would be discovered by the dog dragon and the dragon man.
Qingshi originally wanted to see whether this Yueyang was a 'courteous and virtuous corporal' or a 'cannibal without spitting out bones', but now he knew it was undoubtedly the latter. His original intention was that if Yueyang was a good person, then he should compensate him somewhat. After all, the Xuanming Jinying Stone was obtained on his territory. In fact, according to the rules of Tianlong World, although this thing is on Yueyang's territory, but Yueyang has no ability to collect it, then it is considered an ownerless thing. It's just that Qingshi has a good nature and feels slightly guilty about this.
But now, Qingshi knows that Yueyang is really a 'devil who eats people without spitting out their bones', and the guilt in his heart is completely gone. On the contrary, Qingshi has made up his mind to get rid of this inhumane bully.
The Dragon Slayer slowly sank into the sea and returned across the ocean to his flagship, the Jiao Crocodile. As soon as we boarded the ship, we heard the lookout man lying on the top of the mast shout: "Ship! Big ship! There is a big ship ten miles to the southwest!"
Yueyang was startled and quickly jumped onto the mast crossbar. As expected, a large black ship appeared about ten miles southwest, a large ship several feet longer than the Jiao Crocodile.
One mile is about two hundred feet, and ten miles is about two thousand feet. Such a distance on the open sea is really very close. At such a distance, let alone a large warship of nearly thirty feet, even a small The sampan had also been discovered long ago.
It only took one glance for Yueyang to understand that this big ship emerged from the sea. Not only because it appeared suddenly, but also because sea water flowed all over it.
Then, Yueyang saw a flash of light on the big ship, and a dazzling beam of light shot out from the ship, hitting the warship closest to it. Suddenly, the warship named "Golden Moon" in Yueyang was There was a violent explosion on the ship. Judging from the intensity of the explosion, it would take ten cannon shots to cause such damage.
The Golden Moon was blown up into a raging fire, and the hull began to roll over to the starboard side. Nearly a hundred sailors and samurai on board suffered heavy casualties, and many fell into the sea, all wailing and screaming. The entire fleet was also in panic.
The Xuanwei's main gun knocked out the Jinyue's combat power with just one shot. Hu Hailong felt very accomplished and crossed the ship's hull to aim at the next target with the broadside.
"Fight back!" Yueyang shouted wildly, "Aim all at this pirate ship and fire back."
In fact, without him giving an order, the remaining five warships were already adjusting their positions and preparing to fire back. However, they rushed to respond and how could they fire back immediately?
At this moment, two beams of light shot from the southeast, hitting the 'Silver Moon' and the 'Wizard' respectively. This is naturally when the Xuanhu began to show its power. The Xuanhu's main gun was lost in the Poseidon Tomb. Now it uses two broadside cannons on the port side. Although they are broadsides, their power is not as powerful as the Xuanwei's main gun. Not long after, the two battleships that were hit were seriously injured and immediately lost their combat effectiveness.
"Fight back! Fight back immediately!" Yue Yang roared angrily. At the same time, he was also extremely shocked by the sudden appearance of these two giant ships and their fierce gunfire.
In the chaos, the Xuanwei's broadsides flashed again, and two dazzling beams of light were fired, but neither of them hit the target. They only exploded into white waves and rolled the sea water. The wind and waves on the sea are inherently strong, and once the target ship starts to move and evade quickly, it will naturally be difficult to hit.
Three of the six transoceanic warships were still intact. They completed adjustments almost at the same time and fired artillery shells at the Xuanwei. However, seven cannons on the three ships completed firing, but none of the seven shells flew close to the Xuanwei. The Weihao fell into the sea, causing only a few waves and not even a scratch on the other party's ship's paint.
"Advance to the southwest at full speed!" Overseas shouted an order, "Use main guns!"
Yueyang saw that the range of his cannon was too close, so he had no choice but to give the order. He hoped to approach the closer Xuanwei first, deal with the Xuanwei, and then turn around to deal with the Xuanhu in the southeast.
The idea of crossing the ocean was right, and the tactics were not wrong either. It's just that the strength gap between him and his opponent is too big, so he can only take a beating and has no ability to fight back.
The five warships on both sides fired guns while moving quickly. The hit rate of both energy cannons and flower cannons was extremely low. The energy cannon columns fired by the Xuanwei and Xuanhu failed to hit even one out of ten, while the cannons on the three transoceanic warships Not a single shot hit an enemy ship at all.
In the end, of the three transoceanic warships, only his flagship, the Alligator, accomplished its tactical goal and successfully brought the Xuanwei within the range of its main guns. The other two were sunk by the Xuanwei and Xuanhu respectively. .
The Alligator's main gun finally hit a shell on the Xuanwei. However, as the Xuanwei's defensive energy barrier flashed with blue light, the only shell that hit the target only consumed the Xuanwei's energy. Some energy, no harm done.
Then, the Xuanwei hit the Alligator with one shot, immediately losing its power. At this point, it completely became a living target and could only be slaughtered.
Qingshi had already returned to the Xuanwei, and it was he who fired the shot that hit the Alligator.
Qingshi once again aimed his main gun at the Alligator. After the opponent lost the ability to move, this shot was almost a sure shot.
At this moment, Hu Hailong was heard shouting: "No, there is someone underwater!" After Hu Hailong finished speaking, he wiped off his clothes, leaving only a pair of shorts, revealing the blue sea dragon tattoos on his arms. Then, He picked up two short forks and jumped into the water.
Qingshi rushed to the side and took a look, and immediately found a man all naked with crocodile tattoos all over his body and two dog dragons trying to destroy the bottom of the boat. Qingshi understood that this person was naturally the so-called 'flood man'.
Looking again, Qingshi found that there were more dragons and dog dragons diving towards the Xuanwei under the sea. A fleet with the crocodile flag appeared in the southwest. There were four large ships in the fleet, and the distance was no more than ten miles.
Qingshi waved his left hand, and two flying swords appeared out of thin air. The flying swords plunged straight into the sea along the side of the ship, and immediately pierced a dragon man and a dog dragon.
Under the sea, Hu Hailong's body was more agile than the Jiao people and the dog Jiao. He defeated three Jiao people and a dog Jiao in a short time. Obviously, Hu Hailong was very experienced in dealing with them. His main target was the Jiao people. , because once the dragon man is eliminated, most of the dog dragons tamed and commanded by this man will take the opportunity to escape.
Seeing that Hu Hailong was fully able to cope with the situation under the sea, Qingshi breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the main gun to aim at the Jiao Crocodile. Unexpectedly, in just a short time, three small speedboats appeared in front of the Jiao Crocodile, all heading towards Xuanwei. The number was approaching, and there were seven or eight people in each small boat. It was less than five miles away from the Xuanwei.
Qingshi didn't hesitate, and fired a shot that blew up the Jiao Crocodile to pieces. Then, Qingshi turned the port side of the ship to face the three small boats approaching quickly, and the starboard side faced the four warships approaching from the southwest.
Qingshi controlled the four cannons on both sides and fired left and right. Soon, a small boat was hit, and the people who got on board were killed or injured. A warship in the southwest was also hit, and a raging fire broke out. However, they all strengthened their evasive actions, making it more difficult for Qingshi to aim and hit, and the distance between them and the Xuanwei was getting closer and closer.
Qingshi and Hu Hailong were in a hurry, and Chen Tianye and Duan Wutian on the Xuanhu were in critical condition. Of course, they were very relaxed at first.
When Yueyang commanded three warships to rush towards the Xuanwei, Chen Tianye was not worried. He and Duan Wutian each controlled a broadside gun and continued to bombard the three warships that had already been hit. Boat.
The three warships were naturally hopeless, but they released more than a dozen small boats, which were speeding towards the Xuanhu. After Chen Tianye discovered their intentions, he began to retreat while firing cannons at the small boats.
Not long after, three large ships sank into the sea, and nearly half of a dozen small boats were sunk but could not get close to the Xuanhu. The remaining small boats all turned around and sailed towards Green Sand Island. After they approached the island They jumped onto the island and ran into the vegetation-covered rocks, while the boat was put into the storage container. In fact, most of the people who fell into the water had swam to the island.
Chen Tianye and the others didn't know that other fleets had been deployed across the ocean. They took the time to go around to the east of Green Sand Island and fired cannons at the island for fun.
Suddenly, the puppet on the Xuanhu sounded an alarm that there was an enemy in the water. The two were shocked. They rushed to the bow of the ship and found a man and a dog diving under the ship. Without saying a word, Duan Wutian jumped into the sea shirtless.
Duan Wutian's underwater skills are not very good. Although the cultivation level of these dragons is very low, most of them are not even at the Yuan Dan stage, they are extremely flexible in the water. Duan Wutian can't catch up with them at all, and the same goes for those dog dragons. So, and they were nearly twenty men and beasts.
Duan Wutian wanted to hunt down these dragons and dog dragons, but they did not confront Duan Wutian. Their purpose was to destroy the bottom of the ship. As soon as Duan Wutian rushed over, they fled. Duan Wutian changed his target. They took the opportunity to swim back and start destroying. Duan Wuqian's eyes were filled with smoke. Fortunately, the Xuanhu had excellent defense and was huge, so the damage caused by these dragon men was very limited.
Chen Tianye was not as good at water as Duan Wutian, so he had to keep watch on the ship. Soon, he found a group of enemy ships coming from the east, so he adjusted his position and launched a bombardment.
The four ships coming from the east must have a good commander. When one of the ships was hit, the entire fleet immediately stopped advancing and began to retreat. Chen Tianye thought they were afraid, but he did not expect that the three ships retreated. After reaching the range, more than 20 small boats were released towards the Xuanhu. They were very fast. Not only did they spread out, but they also deliberately moved forward in zigzags. Chen Tianye fired more than a dozen cannons, and unexpectedly a small boat None of the boats were hit.
Seeing that the boat was getting closer and closer, and Duan Wutian was still unable to deal with the Jiao people, Chen Tianye knew that he was in serious trouble, so he started to drive the Xuanhu towards the Xuanwei, while sending an emergency signal to Qingshi.
Just when the Xuanwei and Xuanhu were starting to get into trouble, another fleet of four warships was sailing from the north thirty miles away. Above this fleet, three huge raptors were flying high in the sky. Hovering, that is the bloodthirsty sea eagle of fleet commander Hawkeye Liu.
