Chapter 1287: Water Army

Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 inforeadx;? No one thought that the enemy army that appeared in their field of vision was not from outside the city, but from the Orinho River.

Following the direction of Ning Nanbing's finger, Xin Jiyao and the others raised their eyes to look east, only to see a huge naval fleet coming up the river, led by a warship, several zhang high, dozens of zhang long,

Such a behemoth is simply like a fortress or fortress that floats on the water and can be moved.

Those large warships in the minds of the Ningnan Army, walking together with this giant ship, are simply the gap between chickens, ducks and tigers.

The Zhenhai ship of the Wind Country,

On the mast of the deck of the Zhenhai ship, there is a huge national flag of the Wind Country, and above the national flag, the military flag of the navy is fluttering, and the two big characters of 'East China Sea' are written on it.

This is just the flagship, looking back, there are dozens of Zhenhai ships, and there are no less than 1,000 large, medium and small warships around the Zhenhai ships.

Some warships have the words 'East China Sea' on them, and some warships have the words 'Southeast'.

After using a telescope to see the words on the flag of the navy, Xin Jiyao's face changed suddenly, and his expression was unusually solemn, it was obvious that the enemy was the East China Sea Army and the Southeast Navy Army of the Wind Country.

It's inconceivable that the East China Sea Army and the Southeast Sea Army are both located in the southeast of the Wind Country, while Dooky is located in the northwest of the Wind Country, which happens to be two extremes.

Xin Jiyao couldn't understand how these two water armies of the Wind Country suddenly appeared in Duji's territory, and how did they come here?

The East China Sea Army and the Southeast Sea Army can enter the territory of Duki, but it is indeed not easy, after a long journey, frdo

First of all, the two naval fleets should follow the coast of the wind country, all the way north, successively passing through the coast of Anjun, the coast of Mojun, and the coast of Fengjun, and then enter the coast of Beijun, and then enter the territory of Beijun through the estuary of the Guanjiang River in Beijun.

The Oriño River was called this name when it was in the territory of Duki, and when it flowed through the northern county, it was renamed Guanjiang by the wind people, which means that the river crosses the east and west.

The two armies marched westward through the river, across the entire northern county, before entering the territory of Duki, and then marching up the river along the Oligho River, until they reached the city of Gut.

The whole march route was already very troublesome just to say, and when it was actually walked, it was even longer and harder, and the two fleets walked around the periphery of the Wind Country for most of the time, which took several months.

Shangguan Xiu has been fighting in Duji for several months, and the two naval armies have finally arrived at Duji after going through a lot of hardships.

Pang Zhen is now the commander of the two naval armies, standing on the deck of the Zhenhai ship, he put down the binoculars in his hand, and ordered to the left and right: "The Ningnan army is crossing the river, order the whole army, advance at full speed, two miles away from the enemy, and shell with all your might,"

His order was conveyed, and the sailors standing on the watchtower immediately waved flags, and at the same time that the surrounding warships received the order, the sailors waved flags to the warships farther away, conveying Pang Zhen's orders in turn.

Two naval armies, thousands of large and small warships, the sailors paddled with all their strength and marched at full speed, which really had the potential to swallow mountains and rivers.

When the warship entered within two miles of the ships and rafts of the Ningnan Army, the speed slowed down, and the warships crossed the river one after another, and at the same time, the baffle of the hull gun muzzle was lifted, and black gun barrels poked their heads out of the cabin.

"Fire—"

"Fire—"

The sound of the naval officers on the warships shouted one after another, and then the rumbling cannons became one after another, and thick smoke came out of the cannons, and one after another the cannonballs pierced the sky, whistling towards the ships and rafts of the Ningnan Army that were crossing the river.

After a while, looking at the fleet of the Ningnan Army, the sound of explosions was everywhere, some small boats and rafts that were hit by shells were blown to pieces in an instant, and some larger ships were also blown out of large holes on the deck, and the sound of people falling into the water, screams, and wails was already resounding.

I saw on the surface of the river, the soldiers of the Ningnan army who fell into the water and struggled, countless, broken planks and logs, everywhere,

The fourth batch of soldiers of the Ningnan Army who crossed the river had as many as 50,000 people, but they had the ability to do nothing, and now they can't give full play to it.

People were on civilian ships and improvised rafts, and they were powerless against the regular naval forces, and became the living targets of the East China Sea Army and the Southeast Water Army.

Shelling, endless shelling, this is the way the Wind Country Water Army attacked, the warships of the Wind Army were across the river one after another, and the sound of shelling was no longer countable.

Even standing on the shore, people can clearly feel that the ground under their feet is constantly trembling, and the officers and soldiers of the Ningnan Army located on the north and south shores finally reacted, and people set up cannons on the shore to fight back against the warships of the Wind Country.

It's just that the firepower of the Ningnan army to fight back is too insignificant compared to the firepower of the Wind Country warship.

Even if it is a medium-sized warship, the guns on the hull are divided into two layers, the large warship, the artillery is upper, middle and lower, and the guns on the hull of the Zhenhai ship are stacked up and down as many as five layers, and the upper and lower five rows of artillery fire together, which is completely a carpet clamshell attack, within such an attack range, everything will be destroyed,

Seeing that the Ningnan army had been suppressed by his own firepower, Pang Zhen decisively ordered the front army to advance and deal a fatal blow to the enemy crossing the sea.

The order was transmitted, and the front army, consisting of three Zhenhai ships, eight large warships, twenty medium-sized warships, and dozens of small warships, began to move forward.

While more than 100 warships were advancing at full speed, the guns on the hull were still attacking the Ningnan army on the north and south banks.

At this time, the banks of the Olyño River were full of people, and a cannon shot into the crowd, killing and wounding dozens or hundreds of Ningnan troops, and the shore was like a fried pot.

More than 100 warships came into contact with the ships and rafts of the Ningnan Army, and it was like entering a no-man's land, especially the giant ships like the Zhenhai ship, which crushed all the ships and rafts blocking the front into pieces before they walked by.

Of the 50,000 Ningnan Army, not many people really arrived on the opposite side, and most of them were buried at the bottom of the Orinho River.

Even the cargo fleet where Xin Jiyao and others were located was not spared, and the ships were sunk one after another.

After this water battle, it also made the Olyño River a paradise for adventurers, and in the hundreds of years since, there have been countless treasure hunters who have risked their lives to come to Gute City to dive and hunt for treasures, the root of which is because most of the gold, silver and jewelry looted by the Ningnan Army from Duki have sunk to the bottom of the water in this area with the sunken ship.

Xin Jiyao's boat, which was also hit several times, was severely damaged, and they had to abandon crossing the Olinho River and turn around and retreat to the south bank.

The spirit martial arts of people like Xin Jiyao, Jun Ran and others can complete the spiritual transformation of the armor, turn it into wings with the spirit armor, and fly directly across the Orinho River to the north bank.

However, there are only about 200,000 Ningnan troops who crossed the Olliño River, and more than 300,000 Ningnan troops are trapped on the south bank.

Xin Jiyao refused to withdraw, and Jun Ran and a large number of Ningnan generals could only follow her to continue to stay on the south bank.

The sudden arrival of the East China Sea Army and the Southeast Sea Army of the Wind Country disrupted all the deployments of Xin Jiyao, and now these two water armies have completely locked up the Oliño River, not to mention that the boats and rafts of the Ningnan Army can't pass, and the soldiers can't even go to the shore, so they can only retreat to a place one mile away from the shore.

Outside the city, the main force of the wind army is menacing, and the troops are about to come to the city, and the Orinho River is blocked by the wind country water army, and now for the Ningnan army trapped on the south bank, the situation is extremely critical.

After Xin Jiyao joined up with his own soldiers, he immediately ordered Zhong Ce to select spies with excellent water ability, swim to the opposite bank, and order his own soldiers on the other side to hurry north and withdraw into the city-state of Woluo, as for her side, she ordered all the soldiers to retreat to the west of the city.

Now her only hope is that the main force of the Feng army is in the south, and the defense line on the western border is empty, so she can tear a hole in the western defense line and retreat directly from Du Ji to Ningnan proper.

Under Xin Jiyao's order, the Ningnan army gave up the plan to cross the river, and more than 300,000 soldiers rushed out of Xicheng and marched westward with all their might.

However, this time Xin Jiyao's hopes were disappointed, the defense line set up by the Feng Army on the western border was not unmanned, and the current garrison here was the Third Army of the Zhenjun Army, the Zero Army and the First Army of the Duji Royal Army.

The reason why Shangguan Xiu's first department rushed to the western defense line was because he had already learned the news that the East China Sea Army and the Southeast Sea Army had both arrived near Gute City several days in advance.

He ordered the two naval armies to hide near Gute City, and when the Ningnan army began to cross the river, the naval army would suddenly attack, so that the main force of the Ningnan army could be cut into two pieces, one on the north bank and one on the south bank, so that it would be convenient for them to concentrate their forces and annihilate them one by one.

In addition, Shangguan Xiu also calculated in advance that this part of the Ningnan Army that was blocked on the south bank would definitely not defend the lonely city, and would definitely choose to retreat westward, and he led the army to enter the western defense line first, which could not only block the westward retreat of the Ningnan Army, but also unite his own main army to form an encirclement of the Ningnan Army and annihilate it in one fell swoop.

The only thing Shangguan Xiu didn't expect was that Xin Jiyao didn't choose to withdraw to the north bank, but stayed in the Ningnan army on the south bank.

Let's say that Xin Jiyao's one, more than 300,000 Ningnan troops, retreated all the way to the west, and it took only two days for the Ningnan army to arrive at the western defense line set up by the Feng army on the Duji border.

At this time, Xin Jiyao didn't know that the Feng army stationed in the defense line was led by Shangguan Xiu himself, and she asked 50,000 soldiers, as the front army, to take the lead in launching an attack on the Feng army's defense line, testing the reality of the wind army in the defense line.

The 50,000 officers and men of the Ningnan Army were in front of the two armies, without artillery as cover, and were completely direct advances of the infantry phalanx.

The Ningnan Army sounded the horn of attack, and the phalanx composed of 50,000 soldiers rushed straight to the defense line of the Feng Army.

When they advanced to a mile or so from the defensive line, the artillery in the defensive line of the Wind Army began to shell,

In an instant, the sound of artillery shelling was continuous, and round after round of shells fell from the sky and smashed into the camp of the Ningnan army, followed by a series of rumbling loud sounds.

Countless soldiers of the Ningnan Army were blown up and shattered by the shells that fell nearby during the advance, and the original yellow land was almost stained red with people's blood.

The ferocious artillery bombardment of the Feng Army made it impossible for the officers and soldiers of the Ningnan Army to advance at all, and the crowd in the phalanx was blown to the ground in groups.

Looking at the endless shelling of the Wind Army, Zhong Ce frowned, and said to Xin Jiyao: "General, the Fire of the Wind Army is very fierce, it seems that there are many Feng Army troops stationed here,"

Xin Jiyao narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Pass the order, the whole army will attack, and we must open a gap in the defense line of the Feng Army,"

"But the general ......"

"This is a military order, execute it immediately," Xin Jiyao said categorically,

She couldn't see that the Wind Army in the defense line had a large number of troops, just looking at the number of Wind Army artillery, she could also judge that the Wind Army in the front defense line was at least about two legions,

But she has no other choice now but to attack, otherwise, when the main force of the Wind Army chases and kills, more than 300,000 soldiers will really have no chance to break through.

Under Xin Jiyao's order, more than 300,000 officers and soldiers of the Ningnan Army launched an all-out onslaught on the defense line of the Feng Army.
