Chapter 310: Actual Combat Training (Part II)
In fact, when the seventh princess evacuated, she left more than 20 warships, which were not taken away because of serious damage, and the nineteen princesses knew these things, but they didn't expect King Ming and King Wen to start building a naval army, which made the nineteen princesses not think of it. However, Duanmu Qi is not surprising at all, since he has already occupied Xiyuan City, and the southwest side of Xiyuan City is near the sea, of course it is necessary to establish his own naval army!
"I think Xiaobao's idea is very good! It's just right to use their trolls to train our trolls! Duanmuqi also agreed with this suggestion, but he didn't expect Zhu Xiaobao to bring such a good opportunity when he went out this time! I didn't expect that before!
"That's right! It's just the right time for us to get out of the way! At the beginning, King Ming and King Wen joined forces to cause us to be pulled out of Xiyuan City! Wu Yue immediately exclaimed in agreement.
"Good! Just drive our navy out for actual combat training! Let them also taste what it is like to be constantly harassed! "The nineteenth princess is also very much in favor of this suggestion, to say that leaving Xiyuan City, the saddest thing is the nineteenth princess, and now she can have such a chance to take revenge, which makes her feel very happy.
……
In Xiyuan City, King Ming and King Wen met again, this time King Ming was very dissatisfied, King Wen's naval army didn't care about allies, and fled directly, causing him to lose seven warships, and the remaining six warships were also seriously damaged to varying degrees.
"Huh! Brother Wang, you have also seen that the ship can't get close at all, if my people are rushing up, won't the consequences be the same as your warship? King Wen smiled a little embarrassedly, this time he was a little unreasonable, but he was still quite satisfied in his heart, his subordinates were still very wise, and he knew that he would return immediately.
"Humph! That's not right either? Why is this strange ship specifically beating my men and horses? Even those fortifications only blew up mine, and yours didn't damage at all? Why is that? King Ming asked angrily.
"This ...... This...... I don't understand, huh? Maybe they're coming specifically for you, do you have any other enemies? King Wen also shook his head a little strangely, and then asked.
"Hmm...... I don't know, I have a lot of enemies! Who knows where this came from? But according to my information, this boat should be the one in Lingyue Mountain! These days, this strange ship has a great reputation at sea, and even Yu Li of Lingyue Island was defeated and returned! "Of course, King Ming immediately investigated the information of all parties, so he has already found out some eyebrows!
"That's right! I also went back to check, when the nineteenth sister was able to retreat, and the seventh sister didn't dare to embarrass him anymore, it was also because of this ship, I heard that the seventh sister was also trapped in the port of Xiyuan City by this warship at that time, and was isolated from the large army behind! Could it be that the nineteenth sister is looking for us to take revenge? King Wen also nodded and said.
"Humph! I don't believe that with such a ship, it can still make waves, and if I besiege it with hundreds of warships, I see if he can be arrogant anymore! Someone, immediately mobilize 20,000 craftsmen for me! Build me a ship as fast as you can! King Ming said viciously, this time the loss was a bit inexplicable, so he was very annoyed!
"That's right! as long as
With sheer numbers, this ship is also lonely in power! The foolish brother will never dare to slack off! Someone will gather 10,000 craftsmen for me to build a warship! King Wen immediately agreed, he can't keep up, when the time comes, King Ming's army will have the advantage, won't he be very passive! So King Wen can also grit his teeth and follow up! Anyway, after taking Xiyuan City, King Wen felt that he was trapped, and he had to compete with King Ming all the time, otherwise this Xiyuan City would become King Ming's!
"Well, that's the best! This is the way to join forces to resist the enemy! Second brother, you are very positive now! King Ming said with a smile, he originally took this opportunity to quickly develop his own water army, but he didn't expect King Wen to follow so closely! Both sides understand that each other is guarding against the other!
But the development of things is not as expected by King Ming, his warships have just been built twenty, the warships of the nineteenth princess are here, and King Wen has just built ten here, but he originally had thirteen, and now there are twenty-three warships!
The nineteenth princess led thirty warships this time, and her own handsome flag was hung on the flagship. This time it was really a war in her own name, and the nineteenth princess was still very excited in her heart, and her thirty warships were all improved by Zhu Xiaobao Duanmu Qi and Mu Junyi, although they were still mainly manual oars, but each warship was also equipped with propellers as auxiliary power, which made the speed of these warships increase a lot.
Although it can't be compared to the 'Auspicious Three Treasures' of Zhu Xiaobao, this increase in speed is already a great advantage in the war! And the volume of each warship is also a little smaller than that of ordinary heavy warships, the heavy catapults have been canceled, and the weight of the warships has been further reduced, but the four light catapults on the warship have fired not stones and oilcloth bags, but a newly developed throwing canisters, which are actually simple incendiary bombs, but focus on combustion, and the power of the explosion is limited! But the advantage is that it is very lightweight, it can be thrown very far, and it is definitely not inferior to the range of heavy catapults!
And the heavy crossbow on the warship is very powerful, using the principle of compound bows, the range has been increased by one-third, these improvements are enough to give these warships a great advantage in naval battles!
In fact, Zhu Xiaobao is also helpless to do this, he doesn't have much saltpeter in his hand now, and he can't make a large number of powerful cannonballs, and the cannonballs he produces now are only enough for the 'auspicious three treasures' and colorful ships!
Seeing that it was really the warship of the nineteenth princess, King Ming's navy was immediately ready for battle, and today's navy generals didn't see the strange ship, so they still had a little confidence in their hearts, and their own warships were obviously bigger! I don't know why the Nineteenth Princess built such a small warship. King Wen's warship next to him is also going to battle immediately, this time he wants to behave, he doesn't always have to shrink behind, right? Besides, his own warships are now surpassing King Ming's naval army in numbers!
In fact, Zhu Xiaobao's colorful boat is following behind the nineteenth princess, but it is a distance away and you can't see it! But Zhu Xiaobao can clearly see the battle situation ahead, isn't he looking forward to a telescope! He is now pressing the Nineteenth Princess, in case he can't beat it, he will run out immediately!
Seeing the handsome flag of the nineteenth princess, the main general of the other party hesitated for a moment, and then took the fast boat to the nineteenth princess
In front of the Lord's period, he clasped his fists and saluted: "See the nineteenth princess, I don't know why the princess led troops to attack our Xiyuan City?" ”
"Humph! Your Xiyuan City, go back and ask King Ming, is he embarrassed to say this? Who is the lord of Xiyuan City? The nineteenth princess looked coldly at the general below and said. This kind of pre-battle answer is very common, and it is generally not hands-on.
"This ...... The general doesn't know, but now the general is stationed here, and please return to the nineteenth princess, so as not to have casualties on both sides! The main general hesitated for a moment, and then said, of course she knew that this was originally the nineteenth princess of Xiyuan City.
"Hmmm! Go back, I'm here to take revenge today! Princess Nineteen waved her hand and said.
"Then, well, the sword has no eyes at that time, please forgive the princess!" The Lord re-bowed and went back. After going back, he immediately sent someone to pass the book to King Ming, explaining the situation, no matter what, the other party is also a nineteenth princess, who knows if King Ming will still remember the love of brother and sister, whether he should be a killer or not!
But the flagship of the nineteenth princess did not rush to the front, and the two sisters Wu Yue and Yu Shuang and Yu Xue were at the front. The two of them saw that Zhu Xiaobao was just pressing the formation behind, of course they didn't mean it, and immediately changed to the boat of Wu Yue, what the two of them wanted was to participate in the battle, that was their favorite thing!
"Queue up to meet the enemy!" The opponent's forehead will see that the nineteenth princess did not rush up during the period, which is much more relieved, and he will immediately prepare to fight.
And King Wen's warship has also been outflanked from the other side! Their chief general also took a picture of the nineteen princesses, and they were also sent back by the nineteen princesses!
It was Wu Lijia who greeted King Wen's warship, and she rushed to the front with Jumei and the others very excitedly.
When the distance between the two sides was very close, it was already within the range of the catapult, but I didn't expect King Ming's catapult to start firing first.
Wu Yue and the others were a little caught off guard, and they were hit by a flint bullet, which was actually a stone wrapped in flammable materials such as oilcloth bags. Immediately a large number of rubble flew on the foredeck, and then it burned, and several soldiers were injured by the flying rubble, and several others were also on fire.
"Hurry up and put out the fire!" Wu Yue was suddenly furious, she didn't expect to be hit as soon as she rushed up, it seems that she still underestimated the other party a little!
The warships on the opposite side were cheering, and it was the first time they had experienced a naval battle, and they were able to hit the enemy ship in one fell swoop, and they were also on fire. Of course, I was quite excited!
But what is a little surprising is that the ship on the opposite side seems to be very fast! In the blink of an eye, they were already very close! And the leader is actually a female general!
Just when the main general on the opposite side was still a little stunned, he didn't expect that the catapult of this warship also began to be launched! And it's six at once, but the thing that comes from it seems to be a little smaller, what kind of lethality can such a small thing have?
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ……”
With a few muffled sounds, the same burst burst on the deck, but then a fire ignited, much more so than the one they had just fired
