The sun finally rose, the golden sunlight poured over the sea, and the coalition fleet pulled anchor and set sail in the direction of the island. The fleet approached the Kitam Strait and saw Awaji Island in the west and Tomoshima Island in the north. The Awaji Navy set up a pass between the west coast of Kishu and Jijijima, a narrow waterway of nearly two miles.

It's a pity that what awaits them is not a sea route, but a dense fleet. In the center are two huge houses of the house, about 6 zhang long, five zhang wide, two masts and four oars, the interesting thing is that the ship built a wooden city with thick wood, and there is actually a wooden house in the city. Chongwen was a little surprised, this big guy is top-heavy, is he going to collide?

These two Ataka ships are the main force of the Awaji Naval Army, but these two big ships are behind the formation, and in front of these two big guys are more than 30 closed ships, and nearly 100 small ships are on both wings.

Nonghime pointed to the battle flag fluttering high and said, "Look, the Izono Divine Banner, the great god of the national life of the country, that is the battle flag of the Awaji Naval Army." On the right flank of the enemy is the Awa navy, their battle flags are two leading two emblems, and the ships do not seem to be coming. ”

Chongwen's expression was a little grim: "If they don't attack us now, I'm afraid they are waiting for reinforcements from the Apo Kingdom." ”

Liu Guan scolded: "Entering the mother, the wind direction is suddenly northeast, and we have some headwinds." ”

Chongwen frowned and said, "If we can't eat the wind, we will be entangled in the small boat of the Hosokawa family, and we can't attack." ”

Liu Guan was slightly anxious: "It's not okay to just wait, maybe the reinforcements of the Abo Kingdom are on the way, what should I do?"

Chongwen said firmly: "Let the general army turn the rudder and Xinyou, and the fleet will move in the direction of Youdao to the west." ”

Liu Guan hesitated a little: "In this way, we are facing the direction where the reinforcements may come, and we may be attacked from both sides in advance." ”

Chongwen sneered, pointed to the two huge Anzhai ships opposite, and said, "Those two big guys of his are top-heavy, they must be clumsy and slow, they can't keep up with us." This will allow us to go around his right flank and concentrate our forces on his flank first, and if we're lucky, we'll be able to kill them before reinforcements arrive. ”

Liu Guan was still a little uneasy, and he said in a low voice: "In this way, if the enemy ships launch an attack, the first to receive the enemy is the Fangjin Naval Army, I am afraid that they will collapse at the touch of a button, and the whole army will be in danger." ”

Chongwen said loudly: "The lesser of two evils, the muzzle of the bird ship is always pointed to the starboard side, and the artillery fire is used at any time to support the right-wing Fangjin naval army... Second, go to sea, give the order to go. ”

Liu Guan hugged his fists and saluted, and responded loudly: "Oh!"

Shihisa Kayama and Takashi the Nine Ghosts were surprised to see that the Rolling Sea Dragon King Banner actually turned left and sailed in the direction of Youdao. How dangerous it is to turn the rudder in front of the enemy, but remembering the discipline of going to sea last night, I can only follow the dragon king flag to turn the rudder together.

As the coalition forces on Ryuo Island turned to the west, the Hosokawa naval army had no choice but to turn and go west parallel to the coalition forces. There were constantly small boats rowing hard, approaching the coalition fleet, harassing the Fangjin naval army with bows and arrows, and the Fangjin naval army also returned fire with bows and arrows, and the two sides fired at each other across the sea at a distance of 30 paces, shouting and shaking the sky, but there were few casualties.

Now that both sides are tailwind, the weakness of the huge speed of the Ataka ship is exposed, slowing down the speed of the whole army, and slowly falling behind. The commander of the Hosokawa Navy, Yasuku Fuyasu, is not a fool, he knows that if he continues like this, the Hosokawa Navy's army will be stopped head-on by the coalition forces and attacked from both sides, and the battle situation will not be very good.

The Hosokawa Navy broke away from the brigade with 8 ships and formed a guerrilla force with more than 30 kozao. This detachment paddled desperately, and finally approached the Fangjin naval army of Huashan Zijiu. In the heart-rending shouts of killing, the Hosokawa Navy rushed into the Fangzu Navy fleet from the side.

The desire of the Fangjin pirates to fight was finally released at this time, and no one observed the movement of the Dragon King Banner anymore. Before Kayama Shihisa could react, the helmsmen of Guan Chuan and Kohaya had already turned the rudder, roaring and rushing over, colliding with the Hosokawa Navy.

Dozens of small boats rowed desperately with oars, fiercely colliding with each other, arrows raining down, small boats undulating like galloping horses in the waves, and both sides held more than a dozen pounds of baking fire arrows and threw them at each other. It is a kind of clay pot filled with crude ** big guy, the original firearm that Dakang has long been eliminated, and the name of Dakang is Earthquake Thunder.

This guy is too heavy, and he can only throw a few steps away by manpower, but as long as it falls on the opponent's deck and breaks, the pottery shards fly around, it still has a certain lethality, and the fire that ignites is even more difficult to extinguish. Soon the ships on both sides were on fire, and the sailors on the deck, despite the shards of pottery cut all over their bodies, rushed up and fought desperately against the fire.

Someone jumped to the bow of the opponent's ship without regard for his life, and was quickly slashed by the enemy, and the second and third jumped over with red eyes. The overturned ship undulated with the waves, the sails were broken everywhere, and the broken mast oars were foaming with the waves. Many ships were struggling in the fire, unable to be saved, and the only fate that awaited the ship's pirates was their demise.

The pirates who fell into the water screamed and the blood stained the sea, some of them pinching each other's necks in the middle of the water, and some of them were squeezed into meatloaf by the colliding ships.

I have to say that Chongwen's rice still played a role. Faced with more than twice as many Hosokawa sailors, none of the Fangzu pirates escaped. For the first time in their lives, they broke out with amazing blood, even the Dakang Shui Master was shocked to see it, this casualty was too great, but the Fangjin pirates were not afraid of death at all.

After the Hosokawa ship knocked over a few small boats, it was soon entangled by more small mornings, and the flying iron claws entangled these ships like spider webs. The Fangjin pirates climbed up like crazy, and under the blow of the rain of arrows, they fell into the sea like dumplings, and the people behind did not blink their eyes, and continued to board the ship with short knives in their mouths, and they didn't care about the blurred flesh and blood of their hands strangled by cables. Some of the cables were cut off, and the pirates fell into the water, still roaring at the ship until they were completely submerged by the waves.

The blood that had already been killed on the deck flowed like a river, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing flickered and flickered with the sea breeze. Thick smoke is everywhere, even the sea breeze can't be blown away for a while, it's a fight, there is no clever command and careful tactics, only your life-and-death bravery.

The sudden outbreak of scuffle caught Chongwen off guard, dozens of small boats on both sides were frantically strangled together, hooking up and sticking together with each other, and they couldn't support the people of Fangjin with artillery fire at all, and God knows who the guns fell on.

If Chongwen continued to advance and widen the distance, regardless of the lives of the Fangjin people, he would be able to stop the head of the Hosokawa naval army head-on, and before the enemy had time to deploy, the enemy ships would be broken with artillery fire, and the Kumano people would follow, and the wing of the Hosokawa naval army would soon be broken.

But that can only leave Fang Jinzhong, even if Fang Jinzhong kills the Hosokawa Water Army, he will die completely, Chongwen is a little hesitant. At this moment, there was a thunderous cheer from the sea in the distance, and someone shouted desperately: "Kogoro, a retainer of the Birakiyama clan of the Fangjin Water Army, captured a ship of the Hosokawa Water Army, and beheaded the retainer of the Dongkang family of Anzhai Yasu Shan Wen to help, behead the 18th level!"

Hearing the cheers of the axle man, Chongwen didn't know which nerve was wrong, and shouted the order: "The whole army turns the rudder Jia Yin, and we directly attack the vanguard fleet of thieves, that is, the flank of the Apo Navy, and stir them into pulp!"

The Dakang Navy of the Anointing Bird Ship made a loud promise, and began to change course with the sails and rudders. Liu Guan shouted orders on the upper deck, directing the sailors to unite and work together to steer the ship forward.

The whole ship was in the frenzy of war, but the Dakang Navy was strictly disciplined, and everyone strictly guarded the battle position, not moving at all. Only the maid Noji, wrapped in a white scarf, stood on the cloister and shouted: "Kill the thief, kill the thief!" No one thought this cry was ridiculous, and the heart of the Dakang man was also ignited by the cry of the weak woman and the female beast.

At this time, the northeast wind is strong, and the coalition forces can eat the first half of the sail wind, although the wind direction is still a little lost, and they can't take care of it at this time. As the general soldier turned the rudder to the right, the battle flag of the Rolling Sea Dragon King rushed towards the Awa Navy, the vanguard of the Hosokawa Naval Army, and the Kumano Naval Army, who had been shouting in a hurry, cheered together, and the rudder followed closely.

The coalition forces suddenly ignored the right flank in the fighting, and the whole army rotated clockwise. Originally, the two fleets were running in the same direction in parallel, and the coalition forces were slightly ahead, but now the bow of the coalition ships was aimed at the flank of the Awa naval forces at the front of the Hosokawa army.

The coalition forces of Ryuo Island formed a large group and suddenly rushed from the oblique thorn to kill, which surprised the Awa navy, and even a few ships dared to come to send them to death? Iwashiro Tsuyoshi, the general of the Awa navy, immediately ordered the whole army to turn the rudder to the left and use the bow to face the enemy.

Just as the Awa Navy was adjusting its formation and preparing to meet the coalition forces, there was an earth-shattering noise in the coalition fleet, and Iwashiro Tongyi saw in a trance that in the thick smoke of gunpowder, a black and round thing flew towards him, seemingly slow and fluttering, but with infinite kinetic energy.

With a thud, the guy easily tore apart a canopy, and continued to fly diagonally to the rear, breaking open a closed ship, and before falling into the sea, he hit a small morning, and smashed the bow of the small boat that was turning the rudder into pieces, and half of the bow was gone.

This is the 500 catties of the bow of the bird boat and the fire has been fired, and the distance is 180 steps, which is the most powerful distance, and the enemy ships are densely packed, so there is no need to worry about the accuracy of the head.

The shock to Iwashiro was too strong, and he realized that it was a big iron ball, and everything on the flight trajectory was shattered, and the casualties caused were even more terrible. What can have such a huge power at this distance, what the hell is Kumano Suijun doing?

Before the Hosokawa Navy could completely adjust its formation, the coalition forces were already approaching a hundred paces, and the two sons on the terrace opened fire under the command of Haili Qinglin Yanghao. The Dakang Men worked in groups of several people, constantly adjusting the angle of fire and bombarding the enemy ships with a pound of cannons.

Although the power of the gun is not as powerful as the bow of the ship, but the iron bullet fell like rain in the formation of the Hosokawa naval army, and the board of the ship was not more than an inch, how could it resist the bombardment of an iron bullet the size of an egg, and the damage caused was more terrifying than that of the big guy in the bow, after all, the big guy in the bow was too slow to load.

The cannon Qi Qi Li Qiqian was in charge of the most powerful big hair gun in the whole ship, which made him too addicted to artillery. He urged the sailors to quickly clean the gun chamber and load it well, and he shouted loudly: "Change into shotguns, do you see the battle flag of the Apo family?
