Chapter 188: Defensive Formation
Now that the opening has been opened, the Hewu Fleet will naturally not let go of this God-given opportunity in front of them, and the First Division continues to assault, and the Fourth Fleet following behind consolidates and expands the passage they occupy, and it actually rushes towards the periphery of the encirclement in this way.

The Wang family warships around the passage naturally couldn't sit idly by, and began to fight with the Fourth Division of the Martial Arts that kept the passage open.
The already weak defense of the Japanese and warships naturally suffered a big loss in this kind of close-range shooting, but they didn't care, in their opinion, these losses were necessary, as long as they could keep this passage, the entire Wado fleet could be saved.
But how could the Wang family let them go so easily, the blood dragon fleet in the camp quickly assembled and rushed directly towards that passage.
The Blood Dragon Legion is equipped with the standard battleship of the Ming Praetorian Guard Legion, which is the most defensive and stump output capable of the main battleship of the Ming Dynasty, and it is very suitable to cut off the passage in this situation.
The blood dragon fleet came slowly, and the large-caliber artillery on the ship was fiercely output, and it really broke a hole in the passage that was desperately defended by the martial arts, and the surrounding warships also quickly carried out corresponding tactical cooperation, making this point stand in an instant.
On the passage, the flames surged again, and another blood dragon fleet rushed into the passage, and then another, in just a minute or two, there were already five small fleets of the Blood Dragon Legion rushing into the passage.
They are all one, but they are interconnected, firmly blocking the pace of breaking through with the martial arts.
Originally, even if the Wang family didn't block it, just guarding the front, that passage alone was not enough to make them withdraw completely, but now, the passage was blocked, and the breakthrough operation came to a standstill, and they didn't have the slightest way to solve it.
Yi Heye stared at the battle situation in front of him, looking at the "Long Rui Fleet" behind him, and his heart was already very anxious. In another five minutes, no, maybe only three minutes, those damn Ming battleships behind him will surround and cut off their last retreat.
"Nope! I must not be left here! Tsuruno yelled in his heart.
"The 3rd Division moves to the rear of the fleet and blocks the enemy's advance!" He commanded loudly.
The next moment, the 3rd Division proceeded as ordered, even though they knew that it would be a mortal blockade.
Yi Heye finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the Third Division in action, at this critical time, he was really afraid that these soldiers of the Third Fleet would directly turn against the water in the face of this mortal arrangement, and now it seems that they have no such plan.
What if it comes after? Please, how could the "Long Rui Army", which was in a hurry to encircle and suppress themselves, tolerate such a fleet of more than a thousand warships standing in front of them? Of course, they will be annihilated at the first time, which will undoubtedly buy him more time.
Now Izuno doesn't care about the casualties of his subordinates at all, as long as he can survive, then he has a chance to regain everything. And since everything can be regained, how can he care about the life or death of these subordinates!
It didn't take long for the 3rd Division to begin to exchange fire with the "Longrui Army". The scope of movement, which has been compressed to an incomparably narrow extent, no longer has room for the Third Division to be flexible and maneuverable, and the blocking battle inevitably turns into a stump fight.
And the third division, which was at a disadvantage in performance, was in a situation of absolute disadvantage in numbers, and this blocking battle was even more useless, and the blood dragon army tore apart the defense line laid by the third division like a withering and decaying one, without the slightest stagnation at all.
However, there was one thing that Izuno successfully expected, that is, if the entire Third Division was not completely eaten, the Blood Dragon Legion behind would indeed not continue to advance, and this also gave them time to break through the encirclement.
However, things were far from what he had imagined, and things that Izuno hadn't considered were starting to happen.
When Izuno transferred the 3rd Division away, the Wang family warship, which was originally contained by the 3rd Division, instantly lifted the seal, and began to dispatch a large number of warships in various parts of the defense line to continue to attack the passage that Takedo had worked so hard to create.
"The rest of the outer fleet! Follow me! Igsuno yelled loudly on the Fleet Channel.
This instantly drew cheers from the entire members of the Martial Arts Fleet, and when the Lord personally led them to break out of the encirclement, this was an inspiring action in any story.
However, Izuno did this not for any righteousness or heroism, but for a very practical thing, he had to break through, even if it was just him and a ship, he had to escape.
And I'm afraid it's no fun to wait in the rear, so waiting, it is estimated that the soldiers of the "Longrui Legion" behind will be strong on their foreheads, and they may not have been done over there.
Therefore, he didn't wait any longer, he had to go to the front line, because the front line was often the first to break out of the encirclement, and when the first division opened the passage earlier, it was the first to escape, and Izuno wanted to fly into those battleships now and leave with them.
But now it's useless to say anything, he has to fight again by himself!
――――――――――――――――――
Wang Heng silently looked at the screen in front of him, the Third Division of the Martial Arts Division, which had originally restrained them, was now transferred to the rear by an order, it seemed that he had been sent to the back to block the fleets that surrounded him!
Since there is no current pressure, I will rush to that passage with some troops on my side.
On that passage, the situation of the royal fleet could not be said to be very ideal, and under the repeated charges of the martial arts fleet at any cost, the Wang family warships in charge of defense eventually gradually lost their stability.
It was also here that Wang Heng discovered that the Martial Arts Battleship was attacking again, and compared to the last time, this attack was faster, more urgent, and more regardless of losses. Originally, with the development of the battle situation, the martial arts showed more and more eagerness, and the offensive became more and more fierce, which is of course a normal phenomenon.
In the eyes of the royal fleet, the more eager they became, it just showed the effectiveness of their attack.
But Wang Heng saw the clue in this, although these warships rushed more fiercely and attacked more resolutely, but in the center of this assault formation, there seemed to be something that was closely protected by the other party.
In an instant, one might just flash in Wang Heng's mind.
"This won't be the flagship of the martial arts, right?" Wang Heng was surprised, he didn't expect the other party to be so capable, and he actually led his subordinates to charge in person.
This was the time he turned his attention to the several forces defending the passage, and in the blink of an eye it was determined that these forces were not able to fully block the onslaught.
"Rush forward!" Wang Heng ordered directly. And the next moment, the output power of the tail engine of the fleet led by him instantly increased dramatically, and he rushed over thinking about the Hedao fleet, which was still doing impact operations.
