Chapter 166: The Bloody Battle at Wankou
"You stupid dog!" the enraged Cusson slapped Kindali in the face, then pulled his collar and roared at his bloody face, "Didn't you say that those cannons are useless scrap metal?
There was a muffled thud in the distance, and Jindali's body slammed directly into a huge pillar, and when he hit the ground, he quickly got up, ignoring the blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, but stood in front of Kusen with his head bowed like a faithful domestic dog, not daring to breathe.
"What about Pruncy and Goria!, why haven't you seen anyone at this time!" Coussen turned his head to look around, and saw no shadow of the other two lords, and immediately became furious.
"Back to my lord, as soon as the enemy began to bombard, they went to the Deep Blue Harbor, and they should have gone to anchor and set sail to capture the enemy from behind. At this time, Jindali no longer dared to play scheming, and he knew that he had made a mistake and honestly explained the whereabouts of the two, hoping to alleviate Coussen's anger.
Sure enough, Cusson's face softened a little when he heard this, but after glancing at Jindali, he immediately became angry: "Then what are you still doing here? Waiting for me to see you off, idiot!"
"Yes, my lord, I'll go at once. When Jindali heard this, he did not dare to stop for a moment, and hurried towards the position of the Deep Blue Harbor, and the first mate of his pirates saw the captain leaving, and immediately followed Jindali's back like birds and beasts.
"Where's Aaron?"
After Kindali left, Cussen paced in place a few times before picking up a name.
"Captain Aaron has led the crocodile warriors and the Kraken troops to stand by under the altar, as long as you give the order, we can immediately enter the sea and smash the enemy's ships!
Before the guards could reply, an angry voice suddenly came from the stairs under the high platform - Hoddy, the vice-captain of the Crocodile Warband, who had come to ask Cussen for battle on Aaron's orders.
"Let him decide if I just want to see the heads of those attackers fill the altar!" Cussen cried out through gritted teeth.
"Yes!" Hoddy's eyes lit up as he received the order.
"Let Parkin lift the fjord's magic fence and release the sea dragons and sea serpents, I want those attackers to not even get out of a plank!"
As if that wasn't enough, Cussen once again gave the order to release the sea dragon, which he had never suffered such an insult since he inherited the Great Lord of Deep Blue City, and the anger in his heart could be imagined.
The guards were about to leave after receiving the order, but when they looked up, they suddenly saw a large group of sea eagles flying in the distance, and immediately stretched out their hands to the sky in surprise and said, "My lord!
Cusson looked along the guard's arm, and sure enough, he saw a large shadow flying towards him like a curtain that obscured the moonlight, and not only that, but by the hazy moonlight he seemed to see that many sea eagles seemed to have a black shadow on their backs.
"Let Omar take the witch to knock them down for me!" Of course, Kusen is no stranger to this creature, although he is not afraid of them with his strength, but he is in an extremely bad mood right now, and even the sharp cry of the sea eagle will detonate his anger.
But before the guards could give the order, they saw black objects falling from the sea eagles flying overhead, and in the hazy moonlight, the edges of those things seemed to be burning faintly with sparks.
The light that destroys the world.
The red light from the nitroglycerin explosion lit up half of the sky, and even the silver disc in the sky became dim, and a huge roar was heard far and wide in the night, and the world became quiet for a moment, and then the fire and blood began to envelop the world and rebirth in the darkness.
As Cussen rises from under a pile of rubble and crumbling totem poles, the first thing that catches his eye is a ruined ruin covered in blood and corpses.
There were hundreds of people on the small pedestal he was standing on, but now everyone but him had been reduced to charred corpses in the ruins, and a thick mist of blood in the air.
"Ho...... Ho......" Kusen's throat suddenly began to make a strange intermittent sound, and his breathing became more and more rapid.
"Ah!!h
In the darkness, he turned sharply to look in the direction of the mouth of the bay, and there was a fierce hatred in his eyes, "Kill, kill, kill, I will kill you all!!
Kusen roared and drew his weapon from the rubble, then rushed down like a mad dog under a cliff dozens of meters high.
Behind him, the raging fire was like the lament of Hades.
............
"Prepare for battle!" Lear shouted to the crowd behind him.
By the hazy moonlight, he could already see countless dark shadows approaching their ship at a blistering speed.
On the broadside, Ivo had already led his shooters to the battle, and after hearing Lear's order, his eagle-like eyes narrowed slightly, and he did not hesitate to release the bowstring in his hand when the dark shadow in front came into his range.
Hundreds of sharp arrows pierced the surface of the sea with a sharp cracking sound, and soon dozens of corpses floated up with the rolling tide, no screams or roars, and the killing was best carried out in silence under the cover of night.
This happened around the other three ships as well, but death did not deter the enemy's determination, and as hundreds of corpses rose and fell along with the whitening waves, more black shadows approached quickly.
"The spirit of the water scattered in the sea and the sky, accept my contract summons, turn into ice with the momentum of destruction, and freeze this wave into an ice river!" "Ice Age!"
The night sky echoed with the sound of Lear chanting incantations aloud, and dozens of criss-crossing ice crystals began to appear in the air as his raised arms weighed down.
The ice crystals tangled and condensed in the air into the shape of a massive six-pointed star, and then plunged heavily into the pitch-black waters.
In just a few seconds, the waves of the boat became slower and lighter, and the slightest cold air rose and climbed to the bottom of the Hades, the moonlight was like water, and the sea surface with Hades as the center of the fifty meters was frozen into a huge diamond mirror, the thickness of the ice reached a terrifying one meter, and the turbulent sea water condensed into a land suitable for infantry combat at this moment.
A sense of prostration hit Lear's mind, even with his current strength, the burden of casting such a high-level spell was not light, he glanced at the dark cabin behind him, gritted his teeth and cheered up again.
The real battle has just begun.
The frozen sea deterred the fish-men from trying to sink the Hades, but it also meant that the two sides would engage in a fierce battle on the narrow ice, and after Lear froze the Hades, the watchtowers of the three warships behind him waved the flag of sailing, the heavy iron anchors were slowly twisted, and Landrig stood at the bow of the Red Firth, and the three warships rounded the narrow cliff that went straight into the sea in a zigzag shape, and then headed for the mouth of the bay.
There, there was the battlefield that Lear had arranged for them.
The thick planks were lowered from the side of the Hades, and Haag and Tariq rushed down with two hundred warriors, while the three hundred fighters in the reserve and the archers led by Ivo remained on board, for the ice could not accommodate so many people, but Mrak and twenty holy knights descended to the ice at last.
Face the most ferocious crocodile army of the Fish-People, they are the backbone of the battle.
After the battle preparations were completed, Lear once again gave the order for the bombardment, and the Pluto, equipped with the new wrought iron cannon, did not need to turn the hull to wait for the barrel to cool, and the high heat resistance of wrought iron allowed the Pluto to directly carry out at least six rounds of heavy shelling on the spot, and the stability brought by the frozen sea greatly improved the shooting accuracy of the gunners.
With the roar of artillery, the fastest shark-man appeared on the edge of the ice.
