After nightfall, it actually snowed in the southeast area of Liutianzhou.

There are not many snowflakes flying on the sea, and the inky black snowflakes with the characteristics of the underworld are like catkins, falling from the sky into the sea, and soon merge with the blue waves.

A mixed fleet of the Nine Shadows Country is taking advantage of the cover of night to brave the wind and snow on the sea and quietly move north.

This fleet consisted of eighty warships, including six tall Fu ships, twenty Haigu ships, and twenty Haicang ships and thirty large wing warships. In addition to the crews and sailors, these ships carried large numbers of reggae and scumbags, as well as thousands of air horsemen.

Their target is the Huaishui Port due north. The raid team sent by Xiao Fuling and the raid team arranged by Xiao Shizhu met in the sea of Dahai, and the two fleets simply merged together, and even the plan was merged together, attacking Huaishui Port according to Xiao Shizhu and Wu Qiuyuan's plan.

On the flagship, Tanuki Tianying stood on the bow of the ship, stood side by side with a blue-skinned human soul, looked at the dark snow and said leisurely: "Gongyuan General Soldier, judging from this kind of weather, the enemy must also sleep in the room, right?"

Snowflakes fluttered all over him, chasing him in the wind.

"Not necessarily. The seven-foot human soul standing side by side with him had a strange pimpled face, bright and delicate eyes protruding from the sockets, like a pair of goldfish eyes, and the appearance could be summed up in only one word - ugly.

This ghost is Gongyuan, the brother of the same clan who worked together, and is now the chief soldier of the Zhenxing Water Division of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.

"It's rare to see snow on the sea for a hundred years, and the defenders will be so excited that they can't sleep tonight. Seeing Tanuki Tianying's suspicious gaze towards him, Gongyuan pondered: "So we'd better inform Wuqiu Yuan and General Ga Ge that we must not underestimate the enemy." ”。

According to Xiao Shizhu's plan, the large-wing warships led by Wu Qiuyuan and Ga Ge would take the lead in launching an attack on Guishan Island, the barrier south of Huaishui Port.

If nothing else, once the battle starts, the Beiyin Water Division in Huaishui Harbor will send reinforcements to Guishan Island in time. At this time, Gongyuan and Tanuki Ying took advantage of the weakness to enter Huaishui Harbor, and the fleet with strong ships and guns raided and destroyed the port, while the Flying Army and air cavalry immediately took off and rushed to attack the Huaishan granary.

This plan was originally good, but there was an unexpected situation, that is, the army of Tanuki Tianying and Gongyuan arranged by Xiao Lingling would set off earlier than Brother Ga and Wuqiu Yuan.

And before that, they had already carried out several sneak attacks on the Beiyin Water Division patrolling the sea in the southeast of Liutianzhou, which made the garrisons in the southeast coast of Liutianzhou panic.

It is precisely based on this that Gongyuan expects that whether it is the garrison on Guishan Island or the Beiyin Water Division in Huaishui Port, they will raise the spirit of twelve points to keep vigil.

"Don't think that this battle can be won by surprise, or choose to attack from beginning to end. Gongyuan paused for a moment, and then said in a categorical voice: "This can reduce the casualties of our army." ”。

After thinking about it for a while, Tanuki Tianying also nodded in agreement with Gongyuan's proposal, and then said to the fungus who was sitting on his shoulder, wearing an extra-small fitted cotton coat, and clasping his hands around his chest: "Send the words of the Gongyuan General Soldier to General Ga Ge." ”。

After closing his eyes and contemplating for a moment, the fungus man slowly opened his eyes and said, "General Ga Ge replied that he agreed to the proposal of the Gongyuan General Army. However, he also proposed that we have already captured the military depot above Kameyama Island to supply our army. ”。

"Agreed. Gongyuan was talking, and a feathered ghost flew down from the mast not far behind him, raised his hand and pointed ahead, and said to Tanuki Tianying and Gongyuan: "General, Lord Commander, Guishan Island is ahead." ”。

Gong Yuan and Tanuki Tian should have looked in the direction of his finger at the same time, but because Gong Yuan was a human soul, there was no open flame on the deck of the Nine Shadows Fleet, except for the light of the fire floating on the sea, nothing was seen.

But one thing is for sure, it's Guishan Island. Through those little fires, Gongyuan and Tanuki Tianying could vaguely see that there was a small island like a turtle hidden in the darkness not far ahead.

"Prepare for the offense. Gong Yuan gave an order, and the sailors on the deck behind him got busy one after another.

The fleet was also divided into two, and the fleet, which was dominated by large-wing warships, immediately formed a wedge-shaped formation composed of the left and right azimuth teams with the flagship as the benchmark, and the fleet of Gongyuan and their fleet rushed towards Guishan Island in one step.

According to the information of Xuanjiao, on Guishan Island, which covers an area of no more than 1,000 acres, the main forts are concentrated in the south, southeast, and southwest, and are open-air forts around the mountain. It is equipped with ghost cannons with a range of no more than two or three miles and flint cannons with a range of only two or three miles.

The garrison on the island was only 10,000, and the sailors only had fifteen sea falcon warships.

Therefore, Ga Ge ordered his fleet to replace the poisonous fire cannons and the heavenly thunder cannons, and in addition, the deck was also equipped with fire dragons and other things.

After a cup of hot tea, the fleet commanded by Ga Ge sailed to the south of Guishan Island, five miles from the shore of the island, and took the lead in the attack.

The wisps of green smoke rose and the artillery roared in unison, and the fire flickered on the surface of the sea. After the deafening cannon fire, the red cannonballs with a whistle that broke through the air crossed a brilliant arc in mid-air, and fell one after another on the southern part of Guishan Island.

Inspired by the hot winds, an earth-shattering explosion erupted from the south of Guishan Island, and flames erupted on the island's hillside. Dazzling arcs of lightning burst out from the exploding Sky Thunder Cannon shells, and sharp lightning struck the grass and rocks on the mountain.

The originally solid fort was bombarded by explosions and lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it was already full of holes. As for the artillery on the battery, it was all a pile of scrap metal at the end of the first round of shelling.

Either the barrel bursts or the barrel is deformed in the explosion.

Before the garrison on the island could react, the Nine Shadows Nation fleet fired another debut fireball, roaring towards all parts of the island.

Some of the fire bombs hit the Beiyin Chao warship parked on the shore of the island.

Overlooking the entire Guishan Island, I saw the flames rising from the south of the island and the red light rising into the sky, billowing smoke into the sky. Snowflakes fell, and the once solid fort burst and collapsed in the explosion, and the surrounding lush woods were submerged in a sea of fire. There were barracks and towers, and sawdust flew from the ships under artillery fire.

Everywhere there were panicked and scattered Xudu troops, reduced to a pile of stumps wrapped in flames in the dense artillery bombardment, tumbling and throwing away with the impact and heat wave brought by the shelling. Heart-rending exclamations and cries, as well as terrible screams, were intertwined, one after another.

The firelight and smoke that went straight up to the sky immediately attracted the attention of the Beiyin Water Division in Huaishui Harbor.

Without much thought, they boarded the warship anchored in the harbor and pulled anchor and sailed towards the side of Guishan Island.

Huaishui Port is only three miles away from Guishan Island, and it only took a quarter of an hour for the sailor to reach the south of Guishan Island. In the monstrous firelight, I saw the warships of the Nine Shadows Kingdom standing on the sea outside the island, and the guns on the deck roared, aiming at the dark cannon mouth on the island, and wisps of green smoke rose from the flames.

The artillery of the Nine Shadows Kingdom was the most powerful, and three or two waves of artillery bombardment turned most of the area south of Guishan Island into a mess, full of holes, which made the Northern Yin Water Division stunned.

Before they could recover from their shock, the Flying Sky Army and Air Cavalry of the Nine Shadows Kingdom had already taken off.

After several wars, especially with the Northern Yin Dynasty, the sea and air cooperation of the Jiuyou National Army has reached perfection.

Seeing that nine out of ten of the warships of the Beiyin Water Division anchored in Huaishui Harbor had been dispatched, the Flying Army and Air Cavalry, who were already eager to try, immediately set out, and their goal was to attack those warships.

A large number of Sanmiao ghosts flew into the air with the huge Hundred Illusion Butterflies, and under the support of the Feather People and the Heads of the People, they attacked the Beiyin Chaoshui Division that poured out from the east and west sides of Guishan Island.

The Hundred Illusion Butterfly Sky Ride is very different from the defense of Shuoyue Island, and each Hundred Illusion Butterfly has a small five-foot-long Heavenly Thunder Cannon on its body.

Those Hundred Illusion Butterfly Sky Riders fluttered their huge wings, and as they cast a large black shadow over the Beiyin Dynasty fleet, their heads tilted slightly towards the deck below, and the riders immediately opened fire when they dived.

The cannon roared suddenly, and the fire bombs flew down like meteors, crashing into the deck and exploding violently.

In the midst of the lightning and flames, several Beiyin warships flew sideways in the explosion, and the battleships swayed from side to side under the impact of the explosion, and the keel and the ship's board continued to creak.

There were even shells that directly penetrated the hull of the battleship one after another, and only exploded after falling directly into the sea. The tremendous force of the impact brought up the turbulent waves, which lifted the warship high.

Seeing that the Nine Shadows Army dispatched air horses, and the air horses of the Xudu Army also took off in a hurry, the ship dodged the air attack of the Nine Shadows Kingdom in a panic, and at the same time aimed the guns on the ship at the Nine Shadows Kingdom fleet and opened fire.

For a while, the sea was filled with smoke, and the firelight reflected the sea surface red.

After two failed encounters with the Nine Shadows, the Xudu Army and the Beiyin Water Division realized the importance of firearms, and the battleships were also equipped with large artillery.

Under the roaring cannon, dozens of firebombs struck towards the side of the Nine Shadows Fleet, causing several large-wing warships to suddenly break their planks, and even cut off their waists and fall into a sea of fire.

Most of the sailors and soldiers on the battleship were either killed by shells or engulfed in flames, and only a few survived as the sunken battleship fell into the sea, and the screams were scattered throughout the fleet of the Nine Shadows.

Seeing this, the Nine Shadows Nation Water Division, who was about to take advantage of the chaos to attack the bay, turned around in unison under Gongyuan's order and headed straight towards the Northern Yin Water Division.

"The herald ordered the air cavalry and the flying army, as well as the flying thunder car, to take off immediately, and the air attack plan remained unchanged. Gong Yuan, who was standing on the deck with a long knife in hand, said to the fungus man urgently: "The fleet turned around and went straight to Beiyin towards the sailors. ”。

The fungus man immediately gave the order, and the tanuki should shout, and rushed to the sky with the flying army and the air horse, and the flying thunder car also followed, and after gathering in the air, they formed several trapezoidal teams and flew towards the north.

Gongyuan commanded his warships and went straight to the Beiyin Water Division.

Tanuki Tianying, who led the air force, looked back at the rear when he swept over Guishan Island, and the flames were billowing between the thick smoke on the sea, and he couldn't help frowning, and a trace of worry filtered through his heart.

Then he shook his head a few times, put aside all distractions, and led the air force straight to Huaishui Port.

When they flew over Huaishui Harbor, they saw that the lights in the harbor below were bright, and most of the enemy troops who were waiting for them had climbed up to the arrow tower turrets lined on the coast, and the batteries began to calibrate their artillery.

Tanuki Ying gestured to the herald beside him, and the soldier immediately blew a high trumpet for the charge.

At the sound of the trumpet, the loaded Flying Soldiers swooped down in formation, and the firearms in their hands were aimed at the Xudu Army who were attracted by the sound of the trumpet and raised their heads one after another.

After the unification of the crazy strafing, the Xudu army on the shore suffered a large number of casualties, and the flying troops raised their heads one after another, and once again rushed straight to the sky and flew towards the north without looking back.

The air horsemen and thunder carts that followed had already begun to bombard the turrets and turrets on the coast without mercy.

Under the shelling, the sharp iron pillars sticking out of the front end of the flying thunder car burst out with dazzling electric light, and rushed straight towards the scattered enemy troops on the shore.
