Chapter 102: The Imperial Expedition

"My lord, this research of yours sounds amazing! We can definitely win the battle again this time! After listening to the introduction of his own beast god, those Inca God Kingdom generals opened their mouths and slapped their ass. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Zhang Haofeng: "Don't be in a hurry to shoot the horses, this research has not been completely perfected!" This time there is a chance to test this invention in this battle, and I can perfect it to make it the most powerful weapon of our Inca kingdom! ”

"What! Adults, you have to go and do the experiment yourself! That's too dangerous, isn't it? After hearing Zhang Haofeng's words, these generals of the Inca Divine Kingdom couldn't help but be worried.

"What's at stake! I'm a player, so I have three chances to respawn! And this research status is not completely completed! You won't be able to use it in your hands, I have to come myself! Zhang Haofeng completely settled this matter in a few words.

Because their own beast god wanted to drive the expedition in person, those generals of the Inca God Kingdom did not dare to be careless, and it took more than half a month to mobilize more than 300,000 war beast troops from all over the country before they started this expedition with confidence.

On the other hand, although the Neo-Carthaginians did not know that a powerful enemy had been eyeing them because no one had come to inform them, the sudden disappearance of the fleet of Zhang Dahai, a sea merchant, at sea also attracted their attention. A maritime merchant like Zhang Dahai has extremely strong force in his hands, and when he went to sea that time, he brought a total of three Jiaolong-class warships and six armed merchant ships, and there were hundreds of well-equipped caravan guards on them. This kind of great strength, unless it is ambushed by thousands of outstanding regular troops, it is absolutely impossible to leave all of them behind.

"Could it be that there is another group of extremely powerful pirates in this area!" Jiang Qin, the military commander of the Indonesian archipelago, looked at the information gathered in his hand and muttered to himself with a solemn face.

Because he instinctively felt that something was wrong in his heart, although Jiang Qin didn't know the real reason, he still mobilized the warships in the nearby waters and started a huge patrol and clean-up operation, preparing to find out and eliminate the pirate gang he imagined.

But he didn't expect that after less than three days of patrolling, he collided head-on with the main force of the expeditionary force of the Inca Divine Kingdom at sea. On the side of the Inca Divine Kingdom, there are more than 200 warships of all kinds of large and small warships, and there are even more troop carriers, which almost all look like more than 1,000 of them, of which the smallest warships are more than 50 meters long, and the largest warships are more than 300 meters long. It is larger than Shi Jinshui's flagship Super Water God.

On Jiang Qin's side, all the warships combined, there were only eighteen ships. Among them, there are two True Dragon-class battleships, six Qiulong-class battleships, and ten Jiaolong-class battleships. Although these ships are equipped with powerful new guns, they are much more powerful than the old warships in terms of range and attack power. However, in the face of the enemy's huge superiority in strength, it still looked pale and powerless.

Therefore, although Jiang Qin had not seen the powerful strength of those war beasts of the Inca God Kingdom with his own eyes, as soon as he found that the number of enemies was so large, he immediately turned the bow of the ship and prepared to slip away. Because Jiang Qin used a reconnaissance airship to discover the opponent's fleet more than 20 miles away, in his opinion, having such a long distance should be enough for him to get out safely.

But what he didn't know was that the enemy he encountered this time also had air forces, and the strength of his air forces was even stronger than that of New Carthage.

After seeing the reconnaissance airship, the generals of the Inca Divine Kingdom immediately knew that they had been discovered by the enemy's aerial reconnaissance force, but they were not worried at all, but were eager to try it, looking forward to an early war with the enemy.

"Order the first squad of the Giant Ape Dragon Knights to take to the skies, keep up with that enemy flying machine, and find the enemy's main fleet!"

With an order, a full ten giant lizards with a length of about ten meters and a wingspan of twelve meters wide rose into the air one after another, these monitor lizards were very similar to those mythical and legendary flying dragons in appearance, with fine turquoise scales on their bodies and a pair of gray-white horns on their heads. On their backs, riding were giant ape soldiers wearing black heavy armor, about two and a half meters tall, and full of muscles. Unlike those war beasts, these giant apes, who are also primates like humans, obviously also possess extremely high intelligence after being transformed by Zhang Haofeng, so they can be used as a separate class, and no longer need to be commanded by beast masters.

When Jiang Qin and the others found out that this enemy actually had air troops, they couldn't help but be shocked. At the same time, a bad premonition also surfaced in their hearts.

However, although there was also a bad premonition in his heart, Jiang Qin, as the commander of this fleet, still pretended to be calm and issued an order: "The airship troops and the wind resistors will immediately rise into the air to intercept the enemy's air force and cover the retreat of the fleet!" ”

Under his command, more than thirty airships and five Wind Protectors immediately rose into the air, and after converging in the air, they all headed for the enemy's air force.

And the ten enemies who were called the Giant Ape Dragon Knights by the Inca Divine Kingdom, after seeing the air troops on the side of New Carthage, the corners of their mouths were filled with disdainful sneers.

In the clash of air power, long-range attacks are generally used to determine the winner, and these giant ape dragon knights naturally have their own long-range attack methods. Behind them, all of them carried a huge bow more than two meters long and a bag of heavy arrows, each as thick as a short spear. Because most apes live in trees, the strength of their upper limbs is much stronger than that of humans, and these giant apes that have been specially modified by Zhang Haifeng have been particularly strengthened in this regard, and it can be seen that their arms are all thicker and more powerful than their legs. With such a powerful pair of arms, coupled with the exaggerated size of the giant bow and giant arrows, the lethality that can burst out is absolutely terrifying.

Fortunately, the airships on the New Carthage side were equipped with giant bed crossbows, which still had an advantage in range, and when the two sides were still a few hundred meters apart, the more than thirty airships fired crossbow arrows at the giant ape dragon knights.

In the face of these large crossbow arrows that could easily shoot through the steel plates, these giant ape dragon knights did not dare to resist, and they all controlled the flying monitor lizards under their seats to fly at a high altitude and avoid these extremely lethal crossbow arrows.

As soon as these dragon knights raised their flight altitude, the difference in flexibility between the flying forces of the two sides was immediately apparent, and the large number of airships, which were not known for their speed and agility, could not keep up with the enemy for a while, and only the five wind resistors could barely keep up with those enemies in their gliders.

With very little time to take to the skies, the five Wind Protectors immediately fired bolts from their gliders to shoot down the group of enemies as soon as they regained their ons of the enemy.

However, these crossbow arrows fired from ordinary crossbow machines, after shooting those flying monitor lizards, they could not shoot through the opponent's solid scale armor at all, as for those giant apes, they were all covered with a layer of heavy armor, and they didn't care at all in the face of these crossbow arrows with insufficient strength.

After temporarily distancing themselves from the huge airship forces of the Neo-Carthaginians, these dragon knights immediately launched a counterattack, only to see that after they took off the huge bows on their backs, they opened their bows and arrows at great speed, and then almost without aiming, they shot the arrows in their hands.

However, these guys are obviously not shooting blindly, but their shooting skills have reached a certain level, and they can accurately lock on to the target without aiming, just by intuition. After only a few cracks of wood cracking, the wings of the gliders of the five Wind Protectors were all shot out of fist-sized holes.

There was such a big hole in the wings on both sides, and the wind resisters, who had relied on the weak updraft to maintain the balance of their planes, immediately panicked. Five gliders scurried through the air like headless flies.

Finally, under the watchful eyes of everyone in the fleet below, the glider of the Nameless Wind Resistor plunged headlong into the sea from a height of hundreds of meters. Falling from such a high place, even the sea water became as hard as the concrete floor, and the five wooden gliders were immediately shattered, but fortunately, the five Wind Resistor warriors saw that they could no longer control their planes, so they abandoned the planes and parachuted in advance.

After shooting down the gliders of the five Wind Guardian warriors, the giant ape dragon knights no longer had the slightest scruples in the air, and then they relied on their super flexibility to play the enemy's airship troops around, and finally shot down the enemy's more than 30 airships without paying any casualties.

After neatly destroying all the enemy's air forces, the ten giant ape dragon knights immediately divided into two teams, one of which stayed behind to follow Jiang Qin's fleet to prevent the enemy from escaping, and the other team immediately returned to their own fleet and notified their main forces to come and destroy the enemy's fleet.

The feeling of waiting for death was too embarrassing for Jiang Qin, so when another team of giant ape dragon knights went to inform the main force of the enemy's fleet, he and all the soldiers in the fleet were thinking of a way to shoot down the five giant ape dragon knights. But whenever they wanted to attack, the cunning apes would immediately harness the flying monitor lizards into the air, making each of their attacks futile.

After tossing for more than ten minutes, Jiang Qin and the others failed to shoot down a flying monitor lizard, and the main force of the enemy's fleet had slowly entered their field of vision.

After the main fleet of the Inca Divine Kingdom appeared, just like the last time they dealt with Zhang Dahai and them, they first released a large number of monitor lizards that were more than four meters long and good at diving operations to launch the first round of offensive against Jiang Qin and them. However, the number of monitor lizards was much higher, and more than 1,000 were released at once.

Seeing that there was no possibility of escape, Jiang Qin no longer wasted his efforts, completely gave up dealing with the group of monitor lizard dragon knights flying in the air, and instead concentrated on dealing with the enemy's frontal attack.

Because of their experience in dealing with Zhang Dahai and them last time, the beast envoys riding the giant eagles let those monitor lizards dive deeper at the beginning this time, so that the enemy's artillery had no room to play at all.

But Jiang Qin, they don't know this! There was a fierce bombardment of those monitor lizards infiltrating the site, and I have to say that the scene of hundreds of cannons firing in a salvo was indeed shocking enough, at least the soldiers of the Inca God Kingdom who had never seen firearms were stunned from a distance. However, no matter how powerful it is, it must hit the target! Because the monitor lizards had dived into the deeper waters early, the artillery bombarded for a long time without any results.

Jiang Qin soon found out about this as well, so he quickly stopped the gunners so that they would not continue to waste ammunition. Then he ordered the soldiers armed with heavy crossbows and muskets to go to the side of the ship and wait for the enemy to show their heads, and he now understood that the enemy was preparing to dive away from his most lethal artillery, and then directly attack his own warship!
