Chapter 829: Bloody Battle of Suzi Harbor
Lingkong Province, Suzi Port.
Spring thunder bursts, but the thunder is mixed with the loud sound of the magic crystal cannon, and purple mushroom clouds rise up on the sea, illuminating the coast can also be seen a clear patch.
Higashida-gun, the seat of Sushiko-gun.
At this moment, countless civilians in Dongtian County appeared on the coast, looking forward to the sky-high flames in the east, they all knew that it was the army of Lingkong Province, an army of 100,000 people led by the white-robed Imperial Forest and Jinghai Hou Yaoyuan, the news of the defeat of the Cangfeng Naval Battle had not yet come, and the people of Dongtian County were still looking forward to Yaoyuan to bring a victory, a peaceful and prosperous news.
The fire continued on the surface of the sea for a long time, and even the sea breeze sent the roar of a dragon, but many people did not know what the war was going on on the sea, it was too far away to see clearly.
"Be quiet, don't push!"
On the shore, the young centurion with a spear in his hand said loudly: "Don't push, otherwise the people in front will fall into the sea, please rest assured, Lord Jun is one of the five marquis of the empire, and he is the white-robed royal forest of Her Royal Highness the Empress, he will definitely win this battle, please go home now, if you don't go home, our triumphant army will not be able to land on the shore." ”
In the crowd, many people expressed skepticism and discussed a lot - "I heard those merchants say that the strength of the Blackstone Empire is not ordinarily strong, and their people are fierce and cruel, and I don't know if it's true." ”
"Yes, I heard that the people of the Blackstone Empire love to plunder, if the prince is really defeated, we will all suffer!"
"Who said that the prince will not be defeated, how can our 100,000 sailors plus the magic crystal cannon not be the opponent of those Eastern Barbarians?"
"That's it, don't listen to their nonsense, the Sky Province will definitely be able to hold it!"
"Chitose Jinghai Hou! Long live the Great Qin Empire!"
I don't know who took the lead, and in the blink of an eye, the harbor was full of shouts of "Long live the empire, Jinghai Hou Chitose", everyone shouted hoarsely and dryly, as if they could exchange a victory with their voices, and the soldiers stationed in the harbor were a little helpless, as a soldier to obey orders is their duty, but they also heard some definite news, news from Longxing Island.
The Boxer Kingdom was destroyed, Long Qianlin and Ding Xi, the two old enemies, were killed in battle, and nearly 200,000 male soldiers of the Boxer Kingdom were wiped out effortlessly by the navy of the Blackstone Empire.
The eyes of these soldiers were more anxious and fearful than those of ordinary people.
If the Blackstone Empire is really as brutal as the legend says, as long as Yao Yuan is defeated, the entire Lingkong Province will suffer a catastrophe, and even the entire Lingnan may be plunged into a war!
......
Until nearly midnight, there were still at least a thousand civilians waiting on the coast for news of the war, and many more went home to sleep, for whoever became the emperor was the same, and all they had to do was to be a submissive citizen, fishing, farming, weaving, and paying taxes, and that was enough.
Finally, flames lit up on the dark sea, some with the light of lanterns, some with raging fires, and Yao Yuan's army came back and spread a patch on the sea.
"The prince is back!" said a commander on the shore with excitement on his face.
"Our army is triumphant!"
The mayor of the town, dressed in a brocade robe and with a goatee, said happily that his town was the closest town to the coast, and if he was defeated, his town would be the first to be attacked by the invaders.
"That's not right......"
On the watchtower of the harbor, a centurion squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and said in a low voice: "When we went, there were nearly 500 warships, but only 50 came back, and the flames of many warships were not extinguished, what is going on?"
"Look, sir!"
A soldier pointed into the sea, and saw a speedboat coming at a rapid pace like an arrow.
The sound of the boat "popping" hit the wooden stakes supporting the building in the harbor, and an embarrassed imperial soldier on the ship flew up to the ground and said loudly: "The prince ordered, immediately be on guard, we are defeated, the people of the Blackstone Empire have been killed, the magic crystal cannon and crossbow on the shore are ready, aim at the enemy ships in the rear, and prevent them from landing!"
"Oh my God!"
The defenders on the shore were frightened, and if they looked closely, the rear of Yao Yuan's army was indeed followed by a dense piece of fire, and if they looked closely, it seemed to cover the entire East China Sea, and the people of the Black Stone Empire destroyed Yao Yuan's main force, but their main force was barely much damaged!
Moreover, the battleships of the Blackstone Empire were chasing very closely, and they were less than a mile away from the Yaoyuan army!
With such a huge force, the magic crystal cannon can't be fully calibrated at all.
"Crossbowmen ready!
On the shore, clusters of prepared firewood were lit, and the flames rose to the sky, illuminating the young and nervous faces, most of the soldiers of the Yaoyuan Army were newly recruited, in the years of confrontation between the Gentian Corps and the demons, the Yaoyuan Army did not participate in any war, at most it was only to carry out military affairs such as exterminating wandering mercenaries and bandits, how could these young soldiers have ever seen such a grand war scene in front of them, so that many people were directly frightened stupid.
The young captain walked to the shore, his eyes reflected the fire on the sea, his palm pressed on the hilt of his sword trembled slightly, and he murmured, "Imperial kings...... Shelter us...... Ready, Battle, Come, Trumpet, Ground Cavalry Regiment Ready to Face the Invading Enemy and Defend the Empire!"
The warships in the distance are getting closer and closer, and the ships under Yao Yuan's department have already entered the range of the magic crystal cannon, the sails are blowing, and they are quickly docking, and the landing is too urgent, many warships are directly hitting the cork docked in the harbor, and the flames wave out all at once, and everyone is busy, carrying buckets to extinguish the fire in the roar of the magic crystal cannon, but at this time, there is still time to extinguish the fire.
"Come on, the prince is here!"
On the dragon head battleship, the group quickly helped one person down, it was Jinghai Hou Yaoyuan, Yaoyuan was already unconscious at this time, the white purple flower robe was covered with blood, and the heart shield on his chest was penetrated, it seemed that he had been shot, but this shot pierced the other side of the heart in the chest, otherwise I am afraid he would have died a long time ago.
"Where's the medic!?"
A bloodstained captain roared angrily: "Where have all the people from the Elixir Division gone, hurry up and come to the rescue of the prince, hurry up!"
In the barracks of the harbor, there was the sound of horses' hooves, and dozens of white-robed Elixir Division staff rushed over, hurriedly stopping Yao Yuan's bleeding, applying medicine, and wiping his wounds to prevent infection, while there were dense footsteps around, and many soldiers with heavy shields and spears came to the coast, ready to defend against the enemy.
In the distance, the dragon's roar was bursting, and the warships on the sea were paved, obviously the Blackstone Empire did not plan to just land from Suzi Harbor, they wanted to land on all fronts!
While checking Yao Yuan's injuries, the young captain looked up in horror at the enemy warships that were only a few hundred meters above the sea, and the magic crystal cannons on the shore continued to rage, rolling up waves tens of meters high, tearing the warships of the Blackstone Empire to pieces, but there were too many ships, and it was impossible to stop them all by relying on the dozens of magic crystal cannons on the Xuzi Harbor, and even in the cooldown time of the magic crystal cannon's chamber, the other party traveled hundreds of meters and arrived directly to the shore.
"Puffy Puff!"
The battleships with iron-clad heads of the Blackstone Empire slammed into the harbor one after another, and the next moment a gangplank fell, and a roar came from the sea, and a large number of Blackstone Empire soldiers began to land, wielding battle axes and long knives into the crowd of Yaoyuan's army, and the two sides quickly fought together.
"Ah......h
The young captain is already on the verge of being left without a master.
At this time, his arm suddenly tightened, and when he looked down, it was Jinghai Hou Yaoyuan who woke up, grabbed his arm and said, "Changming, has their warship docked?"
"Yes, Prince!"
"Isn't it that all the warships are backlogged together. ”
"Yes......"
"The order goes down. Yao Yuan gasped frantically, as if he would not be able to take another breath at any time, and said, "Pass me on the order...... Shoot the beech oil we have prepared in catapults, and all the crossbowmen with rockets, and set their ships on fire, and then burn them to pieces, and we will not be happy, and neither will they!"
Changming was slightly stunned, it turned out that Yao Yuan had long thought that his opponent would land on the shore.
"Yes, but the prince, if the other party's warship catches fire, the entire Suzi Harbor will also become a sea of fire!"
"It's fine. ”
Yao Yuan's breathing was extremely short, and he said: "If you can let them lose some of their troops, let alone one Suzigang, even if it is ten Suzigang, it is worth it, send someone to send me back to Linghan City, besides...... Order all the troops in the province to abandon the city they are guarding and go to Linghan City, as long as we hold Linghan City, we can wait for reinforcements, hurry up and do it!"
"Yes!"
......
In the air, barrels of beech oil fell into the water like raindrops, although the warships of the Blackstone Empire were protected by dragon knights, but the dragon king could not stop the pervasive beech oil, even if the oil barrel exploded on the dragon dragon dragon, but the beech oil still fell on the deck of the warship like rain.
"Phew!What does it smell like?!"
One by one, the soldiers of the Blackstone Empire who were waiting to land on the shore cursed: "What a smell, what the hell!"
The next moment, dense rockets in the air shot down from the high arrow tower of the harbor, and suddenly flames.
"!"
In the air, a person carrying a long knife, it was Fu Yu, the commander of the Cangyan Legion, who raised the war knife in his hand and shouted: "Don't put out the fire, all the soldiers who are on fire on the war ship jump into the sea, swim ashore to kill the commander, the war ship will burn if it burns, we are here this time, we have no intention of going back! Remember to protect the war horse, don't let the war horse and beast rider lose too much." ”
"Yes!"
