The naval battle of Tanegashima has reached a fever pitch.

All the forces of the two sides have been put into the battlefield, fighting back and forth on the sea within a radius of dozens of miles. On the side of the Toei people, Ohno Hirata took over the command with full authority. His command ability is obviously much more clever than that of Ping Qingsheng. He relied on the number of boats to firmly surround the Fire Dragon King in the middle, and easily refused to rush into the attack range of the Fire Dragon King's long-range weapons. He had already figured out the attack interval of the long-range weapons on the Fire Dragon King's warship, and once a wave of crossbow arrows was fired, he would immediately order the warship to rush up, and countless Dongying soldiers would rush to the Fire Dragon King's warship and engage them in a broadside battle.

Such tactics were effective, and Hirata Ono managed to inflict damage on the Fire Dragon King after losing dozens of more large and small warships, especially the Akagi sailors, who were killed and wounded by the Toei soldiers who were good at broadside warfare.

Generally speaking, the losses of the Dongying people are much greater than those of the Akagi Water Division, but Hirata Ohno is not worried at all, even if he has a slight advantage now, but it doesn't matter, as long as he drags the Fire Dragon King and waits for the arrival of 10,000 reinforcements from the two islands, then he will win this decisive battle. Looking at the well-equipped warships and mysterious bed crossbows of the Akagi Marine, Hirata Ohno's eyes were full of fanaticism. As long as these are successfully captured, then the Toei Genji will not be his opponent of the Taira clan, and this sea area will also be at his disposal.

"It's still my father's wisdom to turn the tide of the war in one fell swoop." Seeing that the Fire Dragon King's fleet was no longer as arrogant as it had been, Taira Kiyomori said to Hirata Ohno convincingly.

A quarter of an hour earlier, Taira Kiyomori's flagship had been sunk, and he had to run to this flagship of Hirata Ohno. As the flagship of the commander-in-chief, this warship is the most majestic of the Toei fleet. Although it is also an attaku, it is obviously specially made, more than twice as large as an ordinary attata, and only one size smaller than the four-story ship of the Fire Dragon King.

"Don't be too happy, even now, we are still not the opponent of the Akagi Marine." Hirata Ono is not as optimistic as Taira Kiyomori, "The current initiative on the battlefield is still in their hands, they can fight if they want to, and they can withdraw if they don't want to fight, we can't do anything about them." ”

"Then according to my father's opinion, that Fire Dragon King still has the intention of annihilating us?" Ping Kiyomori asked again.

"Yes, the Fire Watching Dragon King is not very advanced in commanding talent, so he must have such a mind. Ichiro has suffered several losses in his hands before, and it is completely because our warship is not as good as him, and Ichiro doesn't have to mind too much. Ohno Hirata said.

Looking at the battle situation in front of him, the Fire Dragon King's face sank like water, although it was a play, but the loss was too great. So far, he has lost five Sea Falcons, a three-story ship has also been badly damaged, and thousands of soldiers have been lost. He frequently looked into the distance, anxiously waiting for Liu Jian to come over.

"Big brother, do you want to use those big killing weapons?" At this moment, Lin Qing walked over and whispered in the ear of the Fire Dragon King.

The Fire Dragon King knew that Lin Qing was talking about the Beehive Arrow, and he was very moved in his heart, but looking at the Dongying Warships that were still as many as three hundred around, he finally shook his head, "It's not time yet, although the Beehive Arrow is powerful, but the number is too small to deal a heavy blow to the Dongying people, let's wait for Liu Shuai to come over and form a siege on the Dongying people." ”

When Lin Qing heard the Fire Dragon King say this, he could only nod.

Fortunately, Liu Jian didn't let them wait long, and after a quarter of an hour, two fleets finally appeared on the sea in the distance.

Hirata Ono was overjoyed to see the two fleets in the distance, and he knew that his two-island fleet had arrived, albeit later than expected.

"Attack with all your might, entangle them!" Reinforcements were in front of him, and he naturally didn't want to let the Fire Dragon King run away like this, so he ordered loudly.

Get orders

, all the Dongying warships were a horn, and they rushed towards the Fire Dragon King like crazy.

"Good time." Seeing the swarming Dongying warships, the Fire Dragon King laughed, "Lin Qing, all the beehive arrows will be sent out for me and tear them apart." ”

"Gotcha!" Lin Qing readily agreed and went to pass the order in person.

When the Dongying warships had just rushed into the fire dragon and they were a hundred and fifty zhang away, Hirata Ohno suddenly saw the fire dragon king's four-story ship filled with smoke, and then he heard a scream like a storm. Before he could see what was going on, he felt a drop of rain fall on his flagship.

"Father, be careful!" Chiyoko Heiqing suddenly couldn't help but say that he threw him down under him, and he saw clearly that there were countless generals and soldiers lying around him at this time, and he saw that they were all stuck with several feather arrows in their bodies, and they couldn't die anymore.

"What's going on?" He asked Chiyoko Heiqing in a shriek.

"Father, my daughter doesn't know, but the enemy seems to know how to do magic, and a puff of smoke rises from their warship, which is countless feathered arrows, and we have already sunk more than a dozen warships." Chiyoko Heikiyoko said with a trembling voice.

Just as she said, a puff of smoke rose up, and the beehive arrows would accurately pounce on their warships with the help of gunpowder, and the rockets came so fast and fierce that they didn't give the Dongying people time to react at all, and countless Dongying sailors were shot through the body, and those large and small warships were even more smashed.

"Father, get off the ship, this ship has been shot through and is about to sink." Chiyoko Hirakiyo helped Hirata Ohno up and hurriedly persuaded.

"Don't retreat!" Seeing that his flagship was sinking, Hirata Ohno was not panicked at all, "Quickly let people remedy the warship, reinforcements have come, as long as you hold on, you can win." ”

"Father, withdraw quickly, it's not our reinforcements, it's Akagi's sailor." At this time, Ping Qingsheng staggered over and said with a crying voice.

"Yaga, what nonsense are you talking about?" Hirata Ohno scolded Ping Kiyomori bitterly, turned his head to look back, and at this glance, his expression froze suddenly.

There were indeed two fleets coming in a hurry, but now that they got closer, they could see clearly where they were the battleships of the Dongying people, and they were clearly the warships of the Han people and the flags of the Han people.

"What's going on? What the hell is going on? Hirata Ono reached out and grabbed Hirata Kiyomori's collar and asked loudly in disbelief.

"Father, we have been fooled, so let's get out." Ping Qingsheng said hurriedly.

"Impossible, impossible." Hirata Ono let go of Hirata Kiyomori in despair, muttered to himself, and suddenly rolled his eyes and fainted. You must know that in this decisive battle, he blocked all the forces of the entire Ping clan, and he was actually lost, and after this battle, Dongying no longer has a place for the Ping clan.

The brothers and sisters of Ping Qingsheng did not dare to stay for a long time, so they hurriedly carried Hirata Ohno on their backs, and with a few henchmen, boarded a lifeboat and fled.

After putting a honeycomb arrow with his own hands, Lin Qingshuang laughed. It looks high-end but it's very simple to use, just light the powder twist on the back of the chest. With a puff of smoke coming out of the box, countless feather arrows rushed forward like fireworks, and in just a few breaths, four hundred feather arrows rushed towards the target.

"Big brother, this thing is so easy to use, you must tell your hometown and ask for more." Regardless of the fact that his face was blackened by gunpowder, Lin Qing said to the Fire Dragon King with a smile.

"Well, now is not the time to say this, go all out and defeat them." The Fire Dragon King gave him a blank look, saw that Liu Jian and Gu Fangbo's warships had formed an encirclement outside, and ordered loudly.

Next, the Fire Dragon King's 10,000 sailors attacked with all their strength and lost the fight

The Dongying Water Division under his command fled, and half of the remaining more than 10,000 Dongying Water Divisions died in their hands, and half were stopped by Liu Jian and Gu Fangbo.

The small boat that Hirata Ohno escaped was extremely fast, and the boat was also a master, and the small boat deftly dodged the attacks of countless tortoiseshell boats, avoiding the attacks of the big ships next to him, and fled into the distance. However, it was also too dazzling, and it quickly attracted the attention of the Fire Dragon King and Liu Jian. Both of them knew that it was likely to be Hirata Ohno himself on the dinghy, and he was in hot pursuit with more than 10,000 sailors. But all the ships could not catch up with the dinghy, and were thrown farther and farther away by it. However, seeing that the direction of the boat's escape is the Osumi Peninsula of the Dongying people, Liu Jian and the Fire Dragon King are not in a hurry, they will always land anyway, it doesn't matter if they are a little earlier or later.

At this time, Hirata Ohno woke up in the arms of Chiyoko Hirakiyo, and saw that he was in a dinghy, surrounded by a few henchmen and generals, he understood what was going on, and closed his eyes in pain.

"Father, it's all Ichiro's fault, if Ichiro hadn't robbed the Han people and provoked Qin Wang, he wouldn't have left such a big disaster for the Ping family, Ichiro would have committed suicide to apologize." Seeing the appearance of Hirata Ohno's face like gold paper, Hirata Kiyomori said with regret.

After speaking, he pulled out the long knife at his waist and thrust it into his abdomen.

"Yaga!" Just when Taira Kiyomori was about to cut open his lower abdomen, Hirata Ohno jumped up from Hiraita Chiyoko's arms and kicked Taira Kiyomori down with a hard kick, "Coward, you coward." What kind of man is he who commits suicide after just suffering a little setback? He pointed at Ping Qingsheng and roared.

"But father, our sailor ......," said Taira Kiyomori, crying bitterly.

"Without the Sailor Division, we can still fight on our own, we still have 50,000 infantry, and it is wishful thinking for the Akagi Army to destroy us." Ohno Hirata said with confidence regained.

"Yes, we still have a chance to fight on our own." Ping Qingsheng wiped the tears on his face and said.

It was already dark, and Hirata Ohno's dinghy had long since disappeared, but the combined fleet of Liu Jian and the Fire Dragon King was still in hot pursuit. Running away from Hirata Ohno is not a big deal, and the most important thing now is to take the opportunity to rush to the mainland of the Toei people, that is, to land on the Osumi Peninsula at the southernmost point of the narrow territory of Toei Province.

"Dragon King, this battle was fought beautifully, with a total loss of 5,000 people, it can be called a rare victory for all 30,000 sailors of the Dongying people." In Liu Jian's five-story ship, the Fire Dragon King and other generals also came here, and Liu Jian said to the Fire Dragon King.

"Thanks to Liu Shuai's good command, we have today's achievements." The Fire Dragon King and the others were also very happy, "This time, the Dongying Water Division, who captured 18,000 people, how to deal with it, please ask Liu Shuai to show it." ”

"That's not simple, how to deal with the captives, we Chicheng has already made a rule, send them all to the iron mine to be miners, presumably General Yang Dayang will be very happy." Liu Jian smiled coldly, "Defeating the sailors of the Dongying people is only the first step, the most important thing is to attack their homeland, General Huo, our sons and daughters are all sailors, and land warfare is the biggest challenge." ”

What Liu Shuai said is that the last general has specially investigated the topography of the Osumi Peninsula, the territory is mountainous, there are Kirishima volcanoes in the north, the central part of the peninsula is the Takasumi Mountains, and the protrusion of the peninsula is the liver mountain. In the plains, there are only the national sub-areas of the Tenjagawa River basin and the liver plains facing Shibu Shiwan, so it is really difficult to fight. But this time we must take advantage of the big victory, and we must also go hard, as long as we attack the Osumi Peninsula, according to the terrain, it is also convenient for us to defend, and the Dongying people will have to work hard to drive us down. The Fire Dragon King said.

"Okay, everyone, when the Osumi Peninsula is conquered, the commander will give you credit to the general." Liu Jian stood up and said loudly.

The generals naturally agreed.
