After more than half a month of sailing, the naval division Nanyang fleet finally entered the waters near Haixi Dawan. In order to destroy the Funan Naval Division, the main force of the Nanyang Fleet was all dispatched, with a total of nearly 200 ships of various kinds, of which the water combat weapons were mainly ship-borne bed crossbows and ballistas.

Standing on the deck of the flagship 'Liaodong' fortune ship, Mr. Liu looked at the rough sea, and his eyes showed a scorching heat. He was very confident in the combat effectiveness of his command, so he did not worry much about the upcoming decisive battle at sea.

At the same time, Funanguo had learned of the arrival of the Liaodong Naval Division, and Fan Yao was discussing with Fan Li a strategy against the enemy.

"General Fan, the Liaodong Naval Division is about to arrive in the city, and it is expected to arrive at our port in the near future. Just in case, the widow ordered you to immediately command the Funan Navy Division to intercept it, be sure to block the Liaodong people from the sea, and never allow them to approach the territory of Funan! ”

"Please rest assured, the ministers will not let the Liaodong people land in Funan even if they are broken to pieces!"

The next day, the Liaonanyang Fleet came to Haixi Dawan and met the Funan Naval Division that came to intercept it. For a time, the entire Haixi Gulf became lively, and the Funan warships stationed in various ports were dispatched one after another to meet the invading Liaodong Naval Division.

The Nanyang Fleet had long been ready for battle, with a series of ship-borne ballistae, revealing their hideous true faces, and their straight launchers pointing obliquely at the sky.

"The ship turns right and prepares to attack!"

Mr. Liu quickly issued an order, and all the warships in the fleet immediately began to form a formation with the two county-level Fu ships as the core, and the bed crossbows and ballistas on the battleships were aimed at the approaching Funan Naval Division.

"Damn, the Liaodong people are going to shoot crossbow arrows! Accelerate, accelerate! Be sure to attack before the Liaodong Army sets up its position! ”

Fan Li once learned the power of the Funan warship's shipborne bed crossbow in the battle of Yizhou! He knew very well that once the Liaodong Army set up a position to launch an attack, with the characteristics of the Funan Navy Division that could only take on the side of the melee battle, he was afraid that he could only be beaten passively.

It's a pity that the Funan people were one step late after all, and the Liaodong people finally took the lead in setting up the formation, and one hundred and ten warships formed a battle line, with a southwestward course, stretching in front of the Funan Naval Division, and the distance between the two sides was only less than one nautical mile.

"All ballistas aim at the Funan warship, fire!"

A total of 350 ship-borne ballistae were loaded with 100 warships, and a bowstring sounded when a bowstring sounded, and stones weighing 30 to 40 catties were thrown high into the sky, and then smashed towards the Funan warship.

"Boom! Rumble! ”

Huge stones with kinetic energy fell around the Funan warship, splashing up columns of water that rushed to the sky. Only a few stones smashed directly on the deck of the Funan people like a big luck, and they were immediately smashed out of a hole, and the sea water poured up directly like a fountain.

"Hell! How could the ballistae of the Liaodong people be able to hit so far? ”

Obviously, the long-range strike capability of the Liaodong Navy Division far exceeded Fan Li's expectations, he didn't expect that the Liaodong people would be able to fire ballistas at such a distance, although it was not so accurate, but under the indiscriminate attack of the other party, the Funan warship still suffered a lot of casualties.

The reason why Mr. Liu started fighting at an ultra-long distance was mainly to deter and hit the morale of the Funan people. Firing a ballista at a distance of half a nautical mile was not accurate at all, but fortunately, he was lucky enough to have a small half-stone hit the Funan warship.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

As the two sides got closer and closer, the ballistas of the Liaodong people became more and more accurate, and the stones fired became more and more dense, and the casualties of the Funan Naval Division continued to increase.

"Quick, quick, keep getting closer, ready to take on the broadside!"

At this time, Fan Li had no choice but to let the Funan Naval Division try his best to get close to the Liaodong Naval Division's warship. If you continue to be pressed by the Liaodong Navy Division, you will be under the blow of so many ballistas and bed crossbows. It won't be long before the Funan Sailor will be completely buried in the sea.

After the naval battle began, the soldiers of the Funan Naval Division found themselves passively beaten, and their hearts were filled with fear as they watched the rain of falling stones over the entire fleet. This gap in technique and tactics cannot be bridged by the courage of flesh and blood.

In order to avoid the shelling, the Funan Navy Division kept turning and accelerating. What a pity! The Nanyang Fleet always took the initiative, and the shelling became more and more accurate, and the losses of the Funan Naval Division became greater and greater.

"Order, all turn to the right, and quickly get out of contact with the Liaodong Naval Division!"

Fan Li glanced at the trembling soldiers hiding in the cabin, and he understood that even if there was really a melee battle with the Liaodong people, with the current morale of the Funan Naval Division, it would be impossible to beat the other party. Rather than this, it is better to take the initiative to retreat first and avoid continuing to be beaten passively.

"Humph! Want to run at this time? Order: Each detachment fights on its own, and must not let go of any warship! ”

In the face of the changes of the Funan people, Mr. Liu quickly changed his deployment. The First Squadron quickly turned its bow and drew three graceful arcs on the sea, trying to intercept the Funan Naval Division that wanted to escape with a huge speed advantage.

In the fierce pursuit battle, there was only one target in Mr. Liu's eyes, that is, the flagship of the Funan Naval Division, the Funan. Under the encirclement and interception of several warships, the Funan was finally in danger, and soon a stone the size of a millstone directly hit the main deck of the Funan.

The deck of the Funan warship was so weak that the boulder directly pierced the entire hull, and at the same time smashed a huge hole. Immediately the sea water poured in along the hole, and the Funan, which was moving at high speed, immediately dropped anchor at sea. The 'Funan', which stopped on the sea, was completely blinded and stood alone on the sea, becoming a key target of attack in eastern Liaoning.

Faced with the situation of certain death, Fan Li was also aroused by the courage of blood, and under his encouragement, the Funan sailor picked up the bow and arrow and began to counterattack. It's just that their counterattack is really not flattering, and the bows and arrows they shoot fall on the sea one after another. No damage was done to the warships of the Liaodong Naval Division.

After another stick of incense, the battle that took place in Haixi Dawan finally came to an end, except for a small number of Funan Naval Division warships who escaped by taking advantage of the chaos, the rest of the more than 800 warships, including all the main warships, were all sunk or captured by the Liaodong Naval Division.

Looking at the wreckage of the warship floating on the sea, Mr. Liu finally showed a smile on his face.

Since he was attacked by the Funan people, he has never had a smile on his face, and he has been holding his breath in his heart, wanting to take revenge. Now that he finally defeated the main force of the Funan Water Division, and killed Fan Li, the general of the Funan Water Division, it can be regarded as making Mr. Liu breathe a sigh of relief.

"Damn, see if you're still arrogant!" Mr. Liu stared at Fan Li's corpse viciously, and then turned around and ordered: "Send an order to the marines, let them land on the coast of Funan immediately!" Remember, there's no need to grab territory, just burn and loot! When the people of Funan think of us, they will feel fear from the bottom of their hearts. ”

This naval battle, which took place at home, shocked Funan. This naval battle, both in terms of scale and intensity, was the largest naval battle that the Liaodong Naval Division had encountered so far since its formation.

There is no doubt that with the demise of the Funan Naval Division, there is no longer a maritime force in the entire South Sea that can threaten the Liaodong Naval Division. When the news of the defeat of the Navy Division reached Funan, all the Funan people were stunned and dealt a heavy blow to the confidence of the Funan king's resistance.

At the same time, after solving the threat from the sea, the soldiers of the Marines on both sides were already ready to go, and with the help of some indigenous soldiers, they began to land on the territory of Funan. If Funan can still fight with Liaodong with a strong naval division on the sea, then on land, the powerful Liaodong army finally made Funan realize what kind of enemy he had provoked.

The 6,000 marines strictly carried out the orders issued from above, and without any scruples at all, they quickly captured the two major ports on the coast of Funan, and seized countless supplies. For a time, the entire coastal area of Funan was full of rumors, and many Funan people migrated inland one after another in order to avoid killing, helping the old and the young.

Fan Yao, the king of Funan, also understood at this time that Liaodong people were not easy to mess with, but it was too late to regret it now. Liaodong has already knocked on the door, and Funan is afraid that it will not be so easy to pass this time, and I don't know what price to pay to appease Liaodong. (To be continued.) )
