Yan Qi touched the powerful shore-based artillery and was very surprised: "This thing is still very powerful. It made big news when it first appeared, hehe."
In his previous life, these foreign bandits used artillery to pry open Dahua's country gate, causing Dahua to suffer humiliation for hundreds of years.
Now, in this world, he will use artillery to scare these bandits.
However, the Engineering Department has only successfully developed shore-based artillery and is not yet able to place the artillery on warships.
Because the recoil of the artillery is too powerful.
The warship simply couldn't bear it.
Furthermore, the sea is humid and the artillery will soon rust after being put on the ship.
After rusting, it is very easy to explode, which is very dangerous.
Therefore, although artillery is powerful, it can only be used on shore.
Although powerful, it is limited.
Yan Qi frowned: "Let the scientists from the Engineering Department work hard to overcome the problem of artillery uploading as soon as possible."
Daoshi nodded: "I have responded many times. The scientists have worked very hard. In a few months, there should be a better way to move the artillery onto the warship."
Yan Qi laughed loudly: "It's true that people are so incompetent. Shore-based artillery is very powerful. It's not a piece of cake to deal with Obi Qiu's European fleet. Don't worry, hehehe, don't worry..."
Yan Qi and Dao Shi talked and laughed, looking relaxed.
But Obiqiu had a bitter look on his face, as if facing a powerful enemy, it felt quite uncomfortable.
Obi Qiu had no idea that Dahua's naval force had become so powerful.
Regarding the development of gunpowder, the European Academy of Sciences has been conducting research. Since the formula of gunpowder is not perfect, it is said that there are only semi-finished products and no usable weapons.
Unexpectedly, Dahua had already taken the lead and developed gunpowder.
This is terrible.
Obiqiu shook his head vigorously. He couldn't care about that much now. The top priority was to break through Yan Qi's blockade. There was no use talking about anything else.
Jim, who was like a drowned rat, was shivering from the cold, with a sad look on his face: "High Priest, what should we do?"
Obiqiu thought for a long time: "Abandon the Yizhou Strait, go to the Yellowstone Strait, and challenge Xu Tianhu! I don't believe that artillery can also be deployed in the Yellowstone Strait."
"yes!"
Jim led the army, turned the ship around, and rushed to the Yellowstone Strait.
Yan Qi shouted: "Brothers, the war drums are beating, and we respectfully send General Obiqiu to throw down his armor and flee."
Hahaha!
The laughter was mixed with the sound of drums and endless ridicule.
Where in this life has Obiqiu received such humiliation?
"Set the boat, quickly sail the boat."
Obiqiu grinned: "Yan Qi, when I break through the Yellowstone Strait, you will no longer be arrogant."
Yan Qi took the telescope and observed Obi Qiu for a long time, then said to Daoshi: "Immediately send a message to Xu Tianhu Feiying, asking him to prepare and serve with artillery."
"Hehehe...Obiqiu must not have thought that there are more artillery deployed in the Yellowstone Strait than in the Yizhou Strait."
At the same time, Yan Qi sent flying eagles to closely monitor Obi Qiu's every move.
…
Obiqiu finally arrived at the Strait of Yellowstone. He was very anxious and ordered Jim to launch a surprise attack on the Strait of Yellowstone immediately.
He believed that Xu Tianhu was a young junior with far less combat experience than Daoshi.
It must be easy and enjoyable to deal with such a young man.
But he didn't expect Xu Tianhu's reaction to be far beyond Obi Qiu's expectations.
He not only has ballistas, but also extremely powerful shore-based artillery, and insidious gun cages are also prepared on both sides of the strait.
All in all, Obiqiu experienced the painful experience in the Yizhou Strait again in the Yellowstone Strait.
The second experience was more painful and deepened the impression.
Obiqiu looked from a distance and saw more than a dozen warships burned to ashes by artillery.
Obichu was going crazy.
In fact, if he had not forcibly broken through the strait blockade and just fought Yan Qi at sea, he would not be embarrassed and would not be at a disadvantage at all.
However, just to break through the strait, Yan Qi just needs to wait and see, but he has to give up all his advantages and has no choice but to enter the traps and traps set by Yan Qi in advance.
This is simply not fair.
Obiqiu thought for a long time and gritted his teeth bitterly: "Retreat!"
If the fight continues like this, there will be no better outcome than the warship being burned to ashes.
Jim asked: "High Priest, neither the Yizhou Strait nor the Yellowstone Strait can pass through, what should we do? The European side can't wait."
Obiqiu pointed to the vast sea: "Let's test new roads and see if we can pass through other sea areas."
"But, High Priest, this is very dangerous. There is a high chance of running aground..."
"It's not that much, but now we are forced to have no choice but to order the soldiers and explore new ways."
"yes!"
Another dozen days have passed since I was exploring a new path.
More than a hundred teams were sent out, but all ran aground.
Some people escaped, and some couldn't even escape and were swept away by the waves.
Obiqiu has reached a desperate situation.
But he couldn't afford it.
If it continues, Europe will become a pot of civil strife, hatred between each other will deepen, and there will be no way to unite as one.
He rubbed his painful eyes hard and sighed helplessly: "Return to Yizhou Strait."
To untie the bell, the person who tied the bell must be tied. This matter could only be solved by Yan Qi.
Obiqiu led the army back to Yizhou Strait.
"As expected, this guy is back, and his plan is exactly the same as mine."
Yan Qi took a speedboat to win: "Obiqiu, do you still want to try the power of my artillery? I really want to show you a good show, but I don't know if you can bear it, hehehehehe."
Obi Qiu suppressed the resentment in his heart and put on a disgusting smile on his face: "Master Yan, don't be joking. There is no hatred between you and me, so why bother to use weapons rashly, right?"
Yan Qi smiled slightly: "What the high priest said is very good. There is no conflict between us, but you insist on finding fault with me."
"You said that I performed well in the Yizhou Strait and Yellowstone Strait. If you insist on passing through, can't you wait for another month?"
"I'm not talking about you, High Priest Obiqiu, you are deliberately trying to ruin my situation. I feel quite uncomfortable in my heart."
Yan Qi spoke in a lively voice, with a look of grievance on his face.
Obiqiu cursed in his heart after hearing this.
Why are you pretending to be innocent? You're taking advantage and selling your good stuff.
But people under the eaves have to bow their heads.
Facing Yan Qi's powerful naval force and the powerful shore-based artillery, Obiqiu could only surrender: "Yes, Lord Yan, it's all my fault, the waves are a bit violent."
"I have already thought about it. We are friends, how can we use weapons rashly? How about we turn our hostility into friendship."
Yan Qi smiled slightly: "Turn a fight into a jade silk? The jade silk is a good thing. Where is the jade silk? Why didn't I see it?"
