Chapter 468: The Battle of the Sea Opens Up!

We must despise the enemy strategically and attach importance to tactics. Although this famous saying has not yet been born in this world, Yan Nanfei fulfills it in this way.

After all, he and Shen Lang had already fought a battle more than two years ago, and they were inexplicably defeated. So this time, he has to be cautious and cautious.

Encircling and annihilating him is the most conservative method of warfare, and his navy is eight times that of Shen Lang, and his fleet is ten times that of Shen Lang, so it can be completely surrounded and then destroyed.

Of course, it will take a long time for the super fleet of 150,000 people to assemble, and even the docks of Raging Tide City cannot accommodate so many warships at one time, and all the large docks within a radius of thousands of miles have been requisitioned.

In order to focus on this great battle, all maritime trade in Fury Tide City was halted, and all merchant ships had to retreat to the docks along the northern coast.

And during this time, although Yan Nanfei had blocked the news, the news still flew out like wings, flew to Angry Tide City, and flew to Nujiang County.

........................

Zhu Wenhua Zhide successfully returned to Xuanwu City, this time the negotiation with Yan Nanfei was a great success, and from now on, he wished Wenhua a share of the maritime trade in Fury Tide City.

Zhuo Zhaoyan's appearance is still too ugly, so he will completely sting Yan Nanfei and force him to support Zhu Wenhua.

The matter has been discussed, and the next step is to get Xu Qianqian, which is the most cost-effective way to build the silk business from scratch in the shortest possible time.

Zhu Wenhua doesn't have to worry about Xu Qianqian not agreeing, because she is a realistic and smart woman, even if the process is painful, but in the end there is only one way to compromise.

In order to protect her family, she could choose to take refuge in Zhuo Zhaoyan, why couldn't she take refuge in him Zhu Wenhua?

Of course, you don't need to be slept with Zhuo Zhaoyan, but if you take refuge in him, Zhu Wenhua won't be killed.

"Someone, go and call Xu Qianqian over. After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Zhu Wenhua ordered directly.

But soon he changed his mind and said, "No, I will go to Xu's house in person and ask the old mother of the Xu family for marriage." ”

Then Zhu Wenhua walked towards the Xu family with hundreds of people, and if the courtship was unsuccessful, he would directly raid the house, after all, the crime was ready-made.

Shen Lang, you have contributed too much, you are obviously dead, you can still use it, and it is so easy to use.

The Xu family's mansion has been burned, and now Xu Qianqian is working for Zhuo Zhaoyan, and she can't afford to live in the mansion.

A few members of the family live in a courtyard of several miles, about two acres, although it can be regarded as a big house, but compared to the previous Xu family manor, it is extremely simple.

After Zhu Wenhua entered the Xu family, he directly met the old mother of the Xu family and said: "Grandmother Xu, I want to marry Xu Qianqian as a concubine, please be old." ”

This world is really ruined, this kind of courtship will not happen to the nobles at all, even if it is a concubine, it must come according to the rules, at least a matchmaker still has to be invited, how can there be a direct rush to the door to force marriage?

But since Ning Shao inherited the throne, the atmosphere of the Yue Kingdom seems to have changed all of a sudden.

The old mother of the Xu family is full of grief and indignation, this world is really unreasonable, and there is no daylight. The Xu family has been forced into this situation, all the family business has been taken away, and there are still people who don't let them go, this is forcing them to death.

Old Madam Xu really had the heart to hit her head to death, so as not to drag Xu Qianqian down, but when she thought of her grandson, who had just turned twelve, she suddenly gave up this idea.

It doesn't matter if she dies of old age, but if this grandson dies, the Xu family will be cut off.

..................

At this time, Xu Qianqian was sitting in front of the mirror.

She knew that Zhu Wenhua was back, and rushed into the house to force marriage, after all, the Xu family is so small now, and such a big movement must be heard clearly.

Zhu Wenhua's negotiations in Angry Tide City this time were very successful, and he had already received Yan Nanfei's support, and he seemed even more complacent.

Can she Xu Qianqian refuse?

Unless she doesn't care about the life or death of her family at all, but she really can't do it. Now there are few people left in the entire Xu family, and she is the pillar.

Zhu Wenhua, this brute, if she doesn't agree, he will really kill the Xu family.

Xu Qianqian picked up a sharp dagger and looked at the faces in the mirror.

It looks so good, it's exactly like a blooming flower, but it's a pity that it's about to be destroyed.

Not only does he want to ruin his face, but he also wants to destroy his body, so Zhu Wenhua, that brute, should have no appetite at all.

Carefully sticking the dagger to your face, the cold feeling is really frightening, and it will definitely hurt next.

Xu Qianqian's dagger slashed lightly across her face, and a small scar suddenly appeared, and blood gushed out.

It didn't hurt, it was just a hot feeling.

However, such a small scar is not enough at all, if you want to be completely disfigured, you must open the skin and flesh, and see the bones deeply.

In that case, it will take more courage.

"Bang!"

The door slammed open, and a teenager rushed in and snatched the dagger from her hand.

"Sister, what are you doing?

"You don't want to be like this, it's a big deal that we fight with them, it's a big deal that the whole family will die, anyway, it's too embarrassing to live like this, I don't want you to sacrifice for me like this. ”

This is Xu Qianqian's younger brother Xu Yun, although he is rich, but he has not had a good life since he was a child, the Xu family has been ruined when he is still ignorant, after a little sensible, he has been living a worried life, as the only male in the Xu family He wants to protect his sister, but he is too weak and unable to do anything.

"Sister, if you dare to cut your face again, I will stab myself to death. Xu Yun shouted with a dagger to his neck.

Xu Qianqian looked at her young brother and said sadly, if her brother was a bastard, it would be better, she didn't need to sacrifice like this, but this younger brother was very sensible.

But in this dark world, even if there is no more prosperity, what can it be? I don't know how much torture and humiliation it will have to endure to get ahead, and by that time the whole humanity has been completely destroyed.

Just like Zhu Wenhua, who used to be a proud talent, now he has finally come out, but he has also completely become a brute.

So some hardships, it's better for her to bear it as a sister!

The Xu family's house was too small, and Zhu Wenhua soon heard the noise here, and rushed over directly, and when he saw the scars and blood stains on Xu Qianqian's face, he was immediately furious.

Xu Qianqian, what do you mean? Would you rather be disfigured than marry me as a concubine?

I wish Wenhua a dignified Yue Guo Jinshi, the son of the Lanshan Viscount's Mansion, is he still not worthy of you?

"Xu Qianqian, do you think you can stop me like this?" Zhu Wenhua sneered: "What I want is you as a person, and you used to be Shen Lang's woman." Not to mention disfigurement, even if you destroy it, I still want to marry you as a concubine, and I still have to sleep with you dozens of times, if you have the ability, you will kill yourself, and you will die with your whole family. ”

Xu Qianqian trembled, she had never felt so powerless.

Xu Guangyun died that day, almost the entire Xu family died, and the mansion was burned, but Xu Qianqian felt that she had become stronger.

However, now this feeling of strength is gone, only endless weakness.

Because there is a weakness, because there is a bottom line, because it can't be absolutely shameless.

Zhu Wenhua sneered: "Anyway, it's already said that this is the point, I'll ask you, do you agree or not agree to marry me as a concubine?"

"Don't agree!" Before Xu Qianqian could speak, Xu Yun shouted directly: "It's a big deal that you killed us? You killed me, I'm not afraid of death." ”

Zhu Wenhua sneered: "Little brother, you don't understand, there are more terrible things in this world than death, hahaha." ”

Then he pulled out a sword, put it directly on Xu Yun's eyelids, and said slowly: "Xu Qianqian, as long as I exert a little force, your brother will be blind in one eye." Do you say yes, or do you say yes?"

Xu Yun was very frightened, his whole body was trembling, but he still didn't move, and he didn't take a step back, and then the tip of the sword cut his eyelids, and blood flowed down and blurred his eyes.

Zhu Wenhua said: "Xu Qianqian, I count down to five, five, four, three......"

And at this time, a figure rushed over quickly and whispered a word in Zhu Wenhua's ear.

"The latest news, news from Angry Tide City, Shen Lang has returned. ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Wenhua's hand shook violently, and the tip of the sword suddenly cut a long wound on Xu Yun's eyelids and forehead, and the blood flowed like a stream.

"What? How is this possible?" Zhu Wenhua hissed, "Is it a rumor?"

In the past two years, the news about Shen Lang's return has not been once or twice, but every time it is a rumor, and Yue Guo even killed hundreds of people because of it, and the rumors about Shen Lang's return have gradually died down.

"It's not a rumor, it's news from Lord Yan Nanfei. "Henchman Bushido.

Zhu Wenhua was stiff and trembling, and he really couldn't believe his ears at all.

Shen Lang is not dead yet?How can this hoodoo thing resist, so that it will not die?

Zhu Wenhua took a deep look at Xu Qianqian and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Now it is not important to marry Xu Qianqian as a concubine, and it is not even important to do silk business.

Shen Lang's return must be a drastic change in heaven and earth, and the maritime trade of Raging Tide City will be cut off for a long, long time.

"Take down the entire Xu clan. Zhu Wenhua gave an order.

Suddenly, hundreds of samurai completely poured in and began to raid people's homes.

Half an hour later, the remaining dozen or so members of the Xu family, including the slaves, were all arrested and locked in the cells of Xuanwu City.

........................

"What? Shen Lang is back? How is this possible?!"

Zhuo Zhaoyan's reaction was even stronger than Zhu Wenhua's, after all, her relationship with the Tianya Pavilion was slightly closer, and she knew how dangerous the Devil's Triangle was.

Shen Lang actually came back alive, how many lives does he have?

The world is about to change again!

"Let's go!" Zhuo Zhaoyan rode a fast horse and led a team of knights to rush out of the original Xuanwu Marquis Mansion.

But where should I go? Zhuo Zhaoyan was in a dilemma, should he report to the Tianya Pavilion or the national capital?

After a little hesitation, Zhuo Zhaoyan still decided to go south to the Tianya Pavilion first, and then go to the Yue King City.

..................

More than half a month later, Yan Nanfei's 150,000 fleet was still assembled, and it headed south and killed Shen Lang's fleet.

Now he was not panicked at all, because the information about Shen Lang was getting clearer and clearer, and even Yan Nanfei sent scout clippers to monitor Shen Lang's fleet all the time.

It had been nearly twenty days since the discovery of the Shen Lang fleet, and it was said that the Shen Lang fleet should have been killed in Raging Tide City a long time ago.

But since it was discovered, his fleet had slowed down, and it was entirely orbiting a stretch of sea.

And Yan Nanfei's scout fleet is also becoming more and more bold, getting closer and closer to monitor and observe, and constantly transmitting information.

Shen Lang's fleet should be dominated by pirates, and the race of this pirate is very mixed, there are yellow people, white people, and many brown people.

At first, Yan Nanfei thought it was a mercenary army, but the banner of the Skull Party was still too conspicuous.

The vast majority of people in the Western world are ignorant of it, but there are always exceptions. For example, the Hidden Yuan Society, and some maritime merchants and nobles who fled from the Western world to the Eastern world, slave owners who were wiped out by the evil demons, and so on.

They told Yan Nanfei a key signal, this is the Skull Party, the most powerful pirate in the Western world, but it has disappeared for more than ten years.

Although those Western slave owners used exaggerated words to describe your Skull Party fleet, Yan Nanfei was completely relieved.

Pirates like to brag the most, no matter how strong they are, how strong can they be?

The civilization of the Western world almost began with the Xilun Dynasty, and now it is only a few hundred years, and it is completely at the level of a junior brother in front of the Eastern world.

What's more, there are only less than 20,000 pirates, and they can't turn the sky upside down.

..................

On this day, the sea is beautiful.

The encirclement array of the Yannanfei fleet is slowly taking shape.

In fact, until now, he has not received the will of the Yue royal capital, but he does not need it at all. Because the will of the Great Yan Empire was clear before, once Shen Lang was found to have returned, he didn't need to ask anyone, and he would directly do his best to destroy it.

In the past few days, Yan Nanfei has been sleepless day and night because of excitement and nervousness.

Shen Lang's return is certainly terrifying, but what is greater is the opportunity and merit.

Last time, His Majesty the Emperor sent half of the world's army to encircle and suppress Shen Lang in order to establish his authority, in fact, there was no need at all, he was just to intimidate the countries of the world, and swept the world in the name of Jiang Li's son.

And this time, if he can destroy Shen Lang, it will be an immortal achievement. By that time, he Yan Nanfei would no longer be Wu Anbo, and he would be directly promoted to marquis or even duke.

There is simply no more cost-effective enemy in this world than Shen Lang, the weight is amazing enough, but weak enough.

In the past few days, Yan Nanfei has been worried about whether Shen Lang will suddenly jump out of the encirclement and then escape.

Because it is too difficult and too slow to build an encirclement in the vast sea.

In order not to scare Shen Lang away, Yan Nanfei's large encirclement was absolutely accurate, ensuring that the encirclement was in progress, but it did not enter the field of vision of Shen Lang's fleet.

It took five days and five nights.

The Great Encirclement succeeded.

Yan's 150,000 fleet was officially encircled.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

He is about to make immortal achievements.

"Shrink the encirclement and strangle!"

........................

With Yan Nanfei's order, the huge encirclement was slowly shrinking.

When you look down from the sky, you will see an incomparably spectacular scene.

The diameter of this huge encirclement was more than 200 li, and Yan's 150,000 fleet was scattered over tens of thousands of square kilometers of sea area, and then kept shrinking.

There are no radios in this world, and there is no way to command from a distance.

It's really not easy for Yan Nanfei to fly, I don't know how many times I have trained to complete this encirclement in a few days and nights.

"Has Shen Lang's fleet moved?" Yan Nanfei asked with bated breath.

"Nope!"

After a while, Yan Nanfei asked again, "Has the Shen Lang fleet moved?"

"Nope!"

Yan Nanfei was a little incredulous, what kind of trick was Shen Lang playing?

This is the vast deep sea, and it is impossible to run aground.

However, Yan Nanfei was surrounded by a Western slave owner, and he was talking about the Skull Party at this time.

Yan Nanfei said: "In other words, what the Skeleton Party fleet is good at is jumping ship?

"Yes. ”

Yan Nanfei said: "You said that the skeleton party fleet disappeared more than ten years ago, which means that the average youth of this fleet is at least more than forty years old?"

"It should be, my lord. "Slave owners in the Western world.

That's even more appropriate, Yan Nanfei felt that his fleet would not give the skeleton party a chance to jump ship and fight, and ten thousand arrows would be fired from two hundred meters away.

Moreover, even if they jumped ship, could less than 20,000 men fight more than 150,000 people?

..................

The encirclement of the fleet of 150,000 people is getting smaller and smaller.

Finally, both fleets came into view.

Shen Lang's detachment was originally considered to be huge, with a full hundred warships and nearly 20,000 people. But compared to the Yan Nanfei fleet, it seems so insignificant and weak.

But what surprised Yan Nanfei was that Shen Lang's fleet still didn't move, completely moving with the current, and even the sails were put away.

Shen Lang: What are you going to do?

But whatever he wants to do, what better thing in this world is than a motionless enemy fleet?

In the last sea battle, Shen Lang relied on the speed of his fleet, desperately escaped, and desperately flew kites, otherwise the whole army would have been wiped out.

And now he can't run even if he wants to.

The fleets of both sides are getting closer and closer.

Yan Nanfei's huge fleet of 150,000 people was like a giant beast, about to completely devour Shen Lang's fleet.

He was so excited that I couldn't suppress it.

It's a wonderful situation right now.

..................

The current situation is too wonderful, and this is also Shen Lang's feeling.

What is the most feared thing about naval battles? That is, the opponent's fleet is sparse, so it will take at least dozens of shells to master the accuracy.

In order to achieve the wolf effect, the fleet is indescribably crowded and dense between ships, and it is almost less than a safe distance.

"Left and right wings, assault!"

Yan Nanfei gave an order, and the ships on the east and west sides quickly attacked the middle.

"Set sail!" Jack Don ordered.

Shen Lang's hundred battleships all raised their sails.

Yan Nanfei fleet was shocked when he saw this, and only set sail at this time? Isn't it too late? At this time, even if your fleet has wings, it will not be able to escape.

The fleets of both sides continued to approach.

Jack Tang gave an order: "Remove the cannon suit!"

Suddenly, all the gun garments of hundreds of battleships were lifted.

Yan Nanfei was stunned, this, what is this iron pipe? It's thick and black.

"Ready!"

Jack Tang shouted.

The commander on each battleship chanted, and the flag-bearers on the masts waved their flags in unison.

The gunners of the Skull Party and the Knights of the Eastern Knights began to stuff explosives, shells, and aiming.

And as the enemy ships approached, the muzzles began to be gradually adjusted.

Shen Lang's artillery directly passed the primitive stage, and now there is no black powder, all of them are powerful explosives, although they are still iron ball bombs, but the artillery is cast of steel, and the strength is amazing enough.

Therefore, the maximum firing range of the artillery can reach more than two thousand meters, and the effective firing range can also be more than one thousand meters.

The surveying sailors on the battleship skillfully calculated the distance of the enemy.

"Eighteen hundred meters. ”

"Fifteen hundred meters. ”

"A thousand meters!"

"Nine hundred meters!"

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

With a single order, more than five hundred guns opened fire.

"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

An earth-shattering roar.

Five hundred shells shot out like lightning.

"Whoosh, whoosh......" These shells cut a graceful arc in the air, and slammed towards Yan's fleet, and a whistling sound sounded in the air.

It's cool!

It's so cool!

That's what all the skeleton party feels.

In order to save shells, I didn't dare to open fire like this after I came to the sea.

With a sharp weapon, the murderous intent suddenly rises, and after having this kind of artillery, you can't really fight a battle with a real gun, it really suffocates people.

Now all the desire to fight has begun to pour out.

........................

And Yan Nanfei first saw the flying cannonballs, and then heard the earth-shattering loud noise.

Then, he was almost completely stunned.

This, this, what kind of weapon is this? It can hit so far, how earth-shattering?

"Whoosh Whoosh ......"

The sailors of the Yan Nanfei fleet felt an extremely shocking scene.

There was a whistling sound in the sky, and countless black dots flew overhead, and the speed was extremely fast, almost flying out a few hundred meters at once.

At such a distance, whether it was Shen Lang or Jack Tang, they didn't think about what the hit rate was at all.

But luck is that good.

"Bang ......"

More than a dozen of these shells hit the enemy ship fiercely.

Even from such a distance, this high-speed iron ball exerts amazing lethality.

Hit the mast and broke directly.

Hit the deck and go straight through.

hit the human body, and it was directly shattered.

However, Yan Nanfei didn't have time to express his shock.

"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

There was another loud bang.

Then, hundreds of black dots shot out from Shen Lang's fleet.

This is not only because of the high rate of fire, but also because the left and right sides have to take turns firing the cannon, so that the recoil when firing the cannon can be relatively effectively counteracted.

Moments later!

"Bang ......"

More than a dozen shells slammed into Yan Nanfei's fleet, and they were shattered again.

..............................

"Dashuai, what should I do?

Yan Nanfei's scalp tingled for a while, and he said to the slave owners in the Western world: "Is this also the fighting method of the Skeleton Party?"

The slave owner was completely stunned, he had never seen a weapon like this, huh?

"No, no, no, the Skull and Bones don't have such weapons, and neither does the Western world. ”

Yan Nanfei's teeth were cold for a while, there was no doubt that this was created by Shen Lang again.

Although it is very amazing, the hit rate is still too low, as long as it is close, his own fleet can kill Shen Lang's fleet even with its numerical superiority.

Gritting his teeth suddenly, Yan Nanfei ordered: "Keep going, keep going!"

"The left and right armies, continue to advance. The two armies of the north and the south are slowly approaching, ready to rush to the rescue. ”

Then, the two fleets on the left and right of Yan Nanfei instead increased their speed.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

With a sound of order.

Shen Lang's fleet fired a steady stream of cannons.

"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

The loud noise on the surface of the sea was deafening, and the red-hot iron balls in the sky whistled by, like countless meteors.

If it was a primitive artillery, the rate of fire was very sufficient. But Shen Lang used almost smokeless gunpowder, and it was wrapped in oil-soaked silk, and after the cannon was fired, the gun chamber hardly needed to be cleaned up, it was almost burned clean, and there was not much residue.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

More than a thousand artillery pieces fired wildly.

With the rounds of shelling, the gunners of the Shen Lang fleet gradually felt that they were coming, and their accuracy was getting higher and higher.

And the Yan Nanfei fleet is too dense.

At first, the shooting percentage was less than three-quarters, but then it increased to a staggering 10 percent.

Each time, more than fifty or sixty shells hit the enemy ships.

Once hit, a huge hole is torn straight open, and the sea water rushes in.

"Bang ......"

One of the cannonballs was so lucky that it hit the fish oil tank directly, instantly penetrating several protective layers, and the red-hot iron ball smashed directly into the fish oil.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

There was an earth-shattering explosion that erupted into earth-shattering flames.

The part above the deck of Yan Nanfei's battleship was completely shattered and burned in an instant.

The battleship was completely destroyed.

"Bang ......"

The destruction of a warship was like the beginning of some kind of prelude.

Next, more than a dozen shells hit a ship at the same time, and in an instant it was a sweep, shattering everything the iron ball passed.

It was as if the battleship had been cut off from it, and the most important thing was the keel, which was cut off alive.

"Crunch ......"

After a harsh sound, the entire battleship broke through it.

Yan Nanfei's second battleship was destroyed.

This was followed by the third, the fourth, and the fifth......

The whole sea, completely one-sided slaughter!
