Chapter 479: Solo Ship

Since the first sound of ice breaking on the ice field in the middle of the Hanjiang River, the entire Hanjiang River has been like a giant dragon gradually waking up, and it has begun to move.

The sound of breaking resounded in all directions, and the rushing river constantly rushed ice blocks of various sizes towards the estuary. Looking at it from afar, it is like a mountainslide, and the momentum shakes the heavens and the earth.

Soon, cracks appeared in the ice near the shore on both sides, and those cracks became denser and denser as the sun rose, like veins on the leaves, spreading to the entire coastal area.

The ice continued to crumble, peel off, and disintegrate, and the ships on the shore had begun to tremble slightly from the impact of the waves, and were no longer as stiff as before.

Emperor Wen had changed into a golden helmet and armor and sat on the deck of the largest king ship, the Daiyan Ship. Although this king ship is far less majestic than the Kuntou ship, it is also a rare ship comparable to the blue sea phoenix ship, and this ship alone can carry more than 10,000 people.

In addition to the Daiyan ship, there are more than ten large warships guarding the surroundings, in a neat formation, ready to go.

Emperor Wen intended to seize the opportunity, and without waiting for the time to pass, he had already led a large army into the Hanjiang River to the center of the river.

At the end of the day, the sun is shining, the sky is clear, and the water and sky on the river are colorful.

Wen Wen stood on the bow deck of the Tiger Head Ship with Qi Lie, the Blood Flame King, looking into the distance.

Suddenly, a whistle eagle flapped its wings and flew back, landing on the right arm of an eagle warrior beside Qi Lie.

This is a high-level falconer that Hunying specially lent to Qi Lie, although she has a gentle companion, she is still a little uneasy, because the cunning of the second elder of the Wen family can not be ignored at any time.

Wen Wen was still unfazed, and asked with a smile: "This little brother of the Eagle Clan, tell me what the Whistle Eagle can detect." ”

"There are enemy ships ahead, and the number is staggering!"

"Hmm......" nodded gently, just as his brother expected.

The giant sword in Qi Lie's hand had been taken off his back and held it in his hand, and when he heard the enemy ship attacking, he asked without changing his face: "It seems that the Great Witch God is not bad, then the next thing is about to meet in a short battle, does Wen Shumi want to go to the cabin for a while?" ”

"Hahaha, no, no. I'll just watch here. Wen Wen laughed.

Qi Lie frowned and said: "Wen Shumi, I, Qi Lie, have this giant sword unfolded, and I can't get close within a radius of ten steps, if Wen Shumi is on the side, I'm afraid that Qi Lie will inevitably take care of one or the other, and if I accidentally hurt Wen Shumi......"

"No, no, this battle doesn't need the Blood Flame King to do it, so naturally I don't have to back down."

What does that mean? I am the vanguard of the Imulan army, and when I see the enemy, I will naturally go into battle, so how can I stand by and not do anything? ”

"Don't worry, the Blood Flame King, my brother just wants the Blood Flame King to stand on the bow of the ship, and the rest only depends on my brother's means."

Qi Lie couldn't figure out the meaning of Wen's words.

"Just standing?"

"Just standing."

"The enemy came up and didn't move?"

"They can't get up."

Gentle and confident, Lin Tongsheng stood behind him silently, and the relaxed appearance of the two of them made Qi Lie can't help but think secretly, okay, just see what they plan to do.

Soon, a row of warships appeared on the water in the distance, and flags were planted everywhere, and the momentum was huge.

Qi Lie glanced at the gentle, still smiling face.

Suddenly, Qi Lie felt a shaking under his feet, as if there were waves.

The Tiger Head Ship is carrying 3,000 blood cavalry, what could it be that can shake such a fully loaded Tiger Head Ship and set off waves?

Qi Lie looked at it and was taken aback.

I don't know when it began, many black snake-shaped ships appeared on the side of the Tiger Head Ship, not only the speed of the ship was extremely fast, but also the movement of the ship was also very strange.

"This is ......" Qi Lie's surprised expression was obviously also mildly expected.

"Hehehe, this is a serpentine ship. The Blood Flame King probably didn't know that the Great Witch God had sent troops to capture one ship from the Luxia tribesmen. The Luxia people have been good at building ships since ancient times, and this serpentine ship is one of them. As for the benefits of this serpentine...... Lao Lin, let's talk about it. ”

Lin Tongsheng saluted respectfully and responded: "Yes, the twelve clans of Liuxia can all build ships, but the types and strengths of the ships built are different. This serpentine ship is a ship unique to the Tsukushi Akizuki clan. This kind of boat looks small, the shape of the ship is strange and slender, but it is extremely flexible, and it can travel quickly without wind or waves. This is because the structure of this boat is like a skeleton, and there are many parts that can be rotated and moved, so it can quickly change into another type of ship on the water, such as ......"

Before the words fell, there was a strange sound from the serpentine ships on the side of the tiger head ship, and when you listen closely, it seems to come from the inside of the hull.

I saw that the serpentine ships suddenly stopped writhing, and some horizontal and vertical cracks appeared in various parts from the bow to the side to the stern, and the hull folded and turned with the expansion of the cracks. In the end, it became the strange shape of the bow and the flat stern, and in front of the bow there were more than a dozen sharp spears, each as thick as a corbel, and the spear body was covered with iron hook barbs.

Gently and proudly pointed to the spears and said, "Originally, the serpentine ships of the Liuxia clan used ordinary iron spears, and these spears were forged by my brother from extremely rare obsidian ore mixed with molten iron, which was sharp and hard. ”

Qi Lie looked incredulous, he wondered why these more than twenty serpentine ships suddenly appeared on both sides of his tiger head ship silently, and he didn't even notice a single one. And not to mention the deformed hull, this iron spear is intended to be ......

"Does Privy Wen want to use the iron spears in front of these serpentine ships to hit the enemy ships in front of them?" Qi Lie asked, "If that's the case, I'm afraid that Wen Shumi is underestimating Cangwu's ship, right?" A few days ago, I sent a message back from the Eagle King's sentry that the Cangwu warship on the Hanjiang River is not a small boat, this serpentine ship looks slender, even if the ship is extremely fast, in such a clear day, if you want to rush over like this, I am afraid that the enemy ship will find it early, and if the enemy ship is equipped with ballistae and wants to aim at these serpentine ships, it is a matter of leisure, and you can shoot your ship through in a few clicks. ”

"Hahaha, the Blood Flame King doesn't have to be anxious, just watch here with me." Gently speaking, he pointed into the water.

It's just a little bit of time to speak, and when he turns his head to look at it again, Qi Lie can't believe his eyes. I saw that on the calm water, the serpentine ships had disappeared without a trace, leaving only a pile of white foam and undulating waves rippling towards the tigerhead ship.

"This ...... This ......" Qi Lie held the giant sword tightly, thinking to himself that this blue sky and white day is not a ghost? Why can't you see so many ships?

Lin Tongsheng said slowly on the side: "This is where the Tsukushi Qiuyue Clan's serpentine ship is really powerful. The boat can use the mechanism in the boat to submerge the entire hull of the boat in the water, and dive underwater for a certain distance. ”

"How is this done?"

"I'm from the Liuxia clan, and there have always been many talented shipwrights, and this serpentine ship has been built by the Qiuyue clan for sixty or seventy years, which is a must." Lin Tongsheng has not shied away from his identity as a native of Liuxia, although the Qiuyue clan and the Lin clan have a deep grudge, but when it comes to outsiders, they are always people who belong to the same country, and they are a little proud of the serpentine ship.

"Sneaking?" Qi Lie was speechless for a while, there was still such a skilled craftsman in the world who could create such a strange thing.

He couldn't help but ask: "If this serpentine ship can really sneak, why don't you find a night and directly sneak my Imuran army across the Hanjiang River, as long as you land, my blood clan will definitely rush his king's tent camp!" ”

"The Blood Flame King is right, if he can sneak to the other side, then my brother will definitely not bother to press so many special iron spears on these serpentine ships. It is precisely because although this serpentine ship can sneak, it will not be able to dive far before it will surface, so there will be a situation of today's showdown on the river. ”

"I see...... So how long can this serpentine dive at most? ”

"About a mile or two."

Qi Lie thought about it and suddenly understood. It's no wonder that those serpentine ships suddenly appeared and disappeared out of nowhere, just in time to surface. That's why I didn't see so many ships moving forward with the Tiger Head Ship.

And, to put it mildly, if it really dives into the water and is not detected by the cangwu ships, then of course they will not be attacked, and those serpentine ships can use their spears to ram and pierce freely underwater!

Since it is underwater, then only the serpentine ship can see the Cangwu ship, and the Cangwu army can only be beaten and unable to fight back.

Those serpentine ships floated and sank, but in the blink of an eye. Then even if you need to float after hitting the enemy ship, it will only be a very small flaw, and it will soon sink into the water like a loach and disappear again.

That's why you don't have to do it yourself.

"Wen Shumi, since I don't need Qi Lie to do it, why do you want me to stand on the bow of this ship?"

"Because the Blood Flame King is famous! The figure is huge, and this giant sword can be seen from afar. My brother said that when Li Houcong saw the Blood Flame King standing at the bow of the ship, he would definitely order all the ships to turn this way first. Then our serpentine ship can be on its route exactly where it must go...... Hehehe, I don't need to say more. ”

Hmph, this old fox turned out to be just using me as bait.

Although Qi Lie was unhappy in his heart, it would be a good thing if he could really let the Blood Clan defeat the enemy army without losing a single bit.

"I can't imagine that just capturing a serpentine ship can build so much in such a short period of time. It seems that there are quite a few craftsmen in the Blade Clan. ”

"Where and where, in fact, when it comes to building a serpentine ship this time, we Imurans have not come out alone, and we have not taken out a copper plate."

"You're talking nonsense." Qi Lie looked incredulous.
