Chapter 201: Onward (2)

Yang Xingmi stared at the battlefield solemnly, trying to include as many details of the battle as possible in order to comprehensively and accurately assess the changes on the battlefield and arrange the next actions.

More than 1,000 ships

On the Flying Fish ship, there are tens of thousands of heavy crossbows, and there are a lot of bed crossbows, and with the magic circle of the battleship itself, the power of these heavy crossbows has been enhanced, and in this regard, the lethality of the heavy crossbows of the Lingnan fleet is stronger than that of the Tiger Guard.

The crossbow bolts shot from the fish-like ship, wave after wave, back and forth, so that a river formed in mid-air, bombarding the front of the Great Water Eater continuously.

Under such a continuous and powerful blow, even if the warships of the Great Food were strong, they were just ordinary goods after all, and they could not withstand such a scene. Just like the houses in the city of Barth Khan, it didn't take long for them to be destroyed in the airburst scene like a hundred flowers blooming.

The broken trees flying horizontally are like flowers and leaves, like catkins, flying uncertainly.

In Yang Xingmi's sight, the sea city composed of the Great Food Warship had become ruins, and pieces of shipwreckage were floating and sinking with the waves, not much different from the trampled vegetable garden.

One of the great eaters screamed and howled, leaping everywhere with the help of floating wooden blocks, trying to dodge and escape, but they were covered and hit by heavy crossbows falling from their heads, and the groups died one after another, fell into the water, turned into floating corpses, and the blood stained the sea red.

Even so, their miserable situation did not stop, and more crossbow bolts rained down, shooting them at the hedgehog, or the minced meat.

As the battle progresses, if you look closely, you will see a cloud of shadows under the water, rapidly approaching. It was a school of fish that smelled blood and came from all sides, and couldn't wait to eat.

The Lingnan fleet is slowly moving forward, and it is about to enter the "ruin area", and the real fish under the surface of the water, even if they are desperate for food, can only panic and scatter. But they weren't far away, they were waiting for the water to calm down again, and then they would be able to feast.

The warriors on the surface may not know what they are fighting for, but the fish below the surface know very well that they are waiting for their own survival. Survival is more important than everything else, and the struggle for survival is the purest and most righteous thing.

When the Lingnan Fleet is initially approaching the ruins area, and wants to continue to move forward, let the heavy crossbow rain destroy more Great Eclipse warships, until the opponent is devoured, the left and right wings of the Great Eclipse Fleet each stretch out a huge wing, and hug the Lingnan Fleet with the momentum of overwhelming the mountains and seas.

The waves in front of the wings are like city walls.

Not only were they extremely fast, but they were also extremely powerful, and each tall battleship had a spiritual light lingering on it. Because of this, every battleship is like a fortress, a strong monk, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

No one will doubt that such a warship can directly break through the water village like hitting tofu, and run over ordinary ships like crushing flowers and plants.

More than 1,000 such warships were dispatched at the same time, coming in front of them with an offensive momentum, and the ferocious momentum was so fierce that Rao was to retreat when he saw the waves.

When Yang Xingmi saw these two huge wings, his eyes lit up, and he knew very well that the real battle of the Lingnan Fleet was coming.

Before, the Lingnan Fleet destroyed the ordinary warships of the Great Eclipse, just like chopping melons and vegetables, it was effortless at all, if the Great Eclipse Fleet was all such ships, they were not qualified to compete with the Lingnan Naval Division at all. As the main general, Yang Xingmi was waiting for the other party to send a powerful warship from the beginning of the battle.

And now, there they are.

"On the left and right wings, there are more than 800 warships rushing out, judging by their appearance, there is no doubt that they are magic weapon warships! General, according to the information we obtained from the previous torture of the prisoners, these must be the personal army of Monchitaz, and they are also the core and most powerful force in the Great Water Eater!"

Zhou Ben spoke up behind Yang Xingmi's side, his fighting spirit was high, his eyes flashed with fierce fighting intent, and he looked like he was eager to try, no different from the groom who was about to enter the cave room.

It is also a magic weapon warship, and the strength is also different, and the flying fish ship of the Lingnan Navy Division, in terms of sturdiness, can not worry about the attack of monks below the fifth level of Qi training. However, the ordinary heavy crossbow on the Exocet ship can effectively kill the same warship, and the bed crossbow has the power to kill high-level Qi cultivators.

With such a warship, Zhou Ben is naturally full of confidence, which is the same as the principle of killing with a sharp weapon in his heart, holding a divine weapon in his hand, he wants to let it play its due role.

Yang Xingmi didn't have as many words as Zhou Ben, his response was simple and direct, with only two words: "Attack!"

Zhou Ben loudly agreed to go and confront the magic weapon warship, and he, the deputy general, must personally take the lead in the charge.

Soon, the Exocet ships also divided into two fleets and rushed towards the magic weapon battleship that rushed out of the middle of the arrogant water eater.

In terms of the number of warships, there is not much difference between the two sides, and when the Lingnan Navy Division guarantees that there is a fleet of Exocet ships on the front, the warships separated from the left and right wings are slightly less than the large spell eater warships.

After the Exocet attacked, it wanted to line up horizontally on the surface of the sea, so that the enemy and us could keep a certain distance, and attack the opponent's warship with heavy crossbows in the form of a flank attack, relying on long-range means to determine the victory or defeat. However, the Great Eater Battleship obviously didn't have this idea, and they still maintained a frontal charging formation, attacking like an awl.

Seeing that the Great Food Navy was still using this kind of ordinary warship combat method, Yang Xingmi was a little surprised, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of contempt in his heart, just like a city man seeing a hillbilly.

However, it occurred to him that the reason why the Great Food Fleet did this was probably because they knew that they would not be able to defeat their heavy crossbows, so they wanted to quickly approach the Exocet ship and then use the monk to jump and tie it up.

This can also be regarded as a tactic that exploits strengths and avoids weaknesses.

Before the two armies approached, the crossbow arrows that rose from the Flying Fish fleet rained down on the big spell eater battleship in front of them, and the crossbow bolts hit the spell warship, sending out a snowflake-like explosion, the momentum was not large, and it could not be compared with shooting ordinary warships, which showed that the lethality was limited.

On the Great Eclipse Weapon Battleship, there were all existences above the Qi Cultivator level, and they used their shields to raise their light shields to protect themselves closely. The ordinary crossbow bolts fired from the Exocet ship had little effect on them, and a few heavy crossbows such as bed crossbows still caused a lot of damage to them.

In just a few moments, hundreds of Great Food Cultivators were killed and wounded, more than a dozen magic weapon warships were sunk, and dozens of them were traumatized. Similarly, in the Great Food Fleet, there are also bows and crossbows fired, but compared with the bows and crossbows of the Tang Army, the power is much worse, and it does not cause substantial damage to the Tang Army.

The two armies were about to meet and fight.

Monchitaz stared at the battlefield, his eyes unblinking. The power of the Tang Army's heavy crossbow was something he had never encountered in his life, and the instant destruction of hundreds of warships in front of him proved that he could not help but feel frightened by this. Fortunately, the main force of the Great Water Eater is a magic weapon warship.

As long as they were able to get close to the Tang warships, the little losses they suffered during the rush were completely negligible.

"Only by jumping off the ship and giving full play to the superiority in numbers can we seize the opponent's ship and win this war!" said to Monchtaz, although the Tang army was strong, his confidence was still very strong. Both have advantages, and as long as he can exert his combat power, he believes that victory will still belong to him.

In any case, there are 300,000 soldiers under his command.

Looking at the Tang warships, Monchitaz thought hopefully: "The heavy crossbows on the Tang warships are very extraordinary, and when my soldiers seize their warships, these heavy crossbows will belong to us! Such a powerful bow and crossbow is rare in the world, and it will be used in the eastern part of the Tang Dynasty in the future, and it will definitely be invincible!"

Thinking that the bow and crossbow of the Tang army would become a sharp weapon for him to attack the Tang Dynasty, and he would kill and injure the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in the hands of his own soldiers, help him conquer the land of the Tang Dynasty, and establish a legacy for centuries, Monchitaz had a smile on his face.

The Great Eater Fleet, together with the Flying Fish Fleet, broke through the last wave and finally came together head-on!

Just like when two elite cavalry fight against each other, no cavalry will be stupid enough to use their own war horses to ram the opponent's war horses, and the two fleets in front of them clashed, whether it was the Great Eater Warship or the Flying Fish Fleet, they did not use the hull to hit each other, but staggered by.

Yang Xingmi, who knew the tactics of the Great Food Fleet, saw this scene, and there was a cruel smile in the depths of his eyes.

As expected, a series of hooks were thrown out on the Great Food Battleship, trying to hook the side of the Exocet ship, so that the two warships could be connected together, fixed, and no longer separated, so that the Great Food Monk could jump and fight.

But when the hook lock was just thrown from the Great Food Battleship, and the Great Food Monks were about to fly on the Exocet ship, a scene that they would never forget appeared.

On the flank hull of the tall Exocet, as the partition was pulled open, rows of dense arrows were exposed, each the size of a fist, adding up to hundreds, diagonally upwards towards the mid-air position. There are also a few large ones, hollow like bloody mouths, and they are straight.

At the moment when the Flying Fish Ships on the hook and hook on the Great Food Battleship were connected to each other, in hundreds of hollows, crossbow bolts suddenly flew out one after another, shooting at those Great Food Monks who had just jumped up and wanted to fly through the gap between the two ships!

At such a close distance, the crossbow bolts were extremely powerful, and the Great Food Monk's body protection round shield could only barely resist three or two blows. And the huge impact of the crossbow bolt, even if it can't shatter the round shield in the first place, can still deflect the monk's body and make them scramble.

As one after another crossbow arrows flew out like locusts, the Great Food Cultivators with air shields in mid-air burst out with aura around them, like leaves scattered by the wind, circling wildly.

After three or five strokes, the air shield shattered one after another, and the spiritual light overflowed like fireworks, and the crossbow bolts flew into the monk's body, shooting these targets one after another like birds!

In the middle of the "pair" warship, the aura was like snow, and the air exploded like a splash, and one by one the Great Food Monks who intended to cross the gap between the two ships were constantly shot and deflected by the crossbow arrows, and they did not have time to stabilize their bodies, and the follow-up crossbow arrows shot through them, leaving them dead or seriously injured bodies, and falling on the boat and in the water like dumplings.

The scene was spectacular.

This scene made Monchitaz's eyes as round as brass bells.

He didn't expect the battle to be like this.

The layout and tactics of the Exocet ship were unseen and unheard of by him.

In ordinary jumping battles, it is also necessary to guard against the opponent's soldiers killing the enemy with bows and crossbows, but how can there be such a terrifying scale? The crossbow arrows on the Exocet ships are all in fixed positions, fired continuously, and adopt the combat method of shooting and killing in a covered row! How many bows and crossbows are needed?

Moreover, the position of their arrow holes is diagonally upward, which means that it is aimed at jumping and tiding, and it is a monk jumping and tied! The bow and crossbow shot from the ordinary arrow hole are going to attack the opponent's ship, how can they face the sky?

Yang Xingmi raised his chin slightly, calmed down, and hid his pride for nine points.

He thought proudly in his heart: "Your Majesty has long said that the method of warfare of the monk fleet should be changed, long-range strike is the best way to win, and jumping and tying up the battle is the reckless tactics and savage style."

"When you get to the sea, a warship is a city, and at the worst it is also a military fortress, how can you let the opponent approach and seize the city at will? If the opponent uses barbaric methods to deal with civilized means, then let them know what the strength of civilization is!"

Yang Xingmi admired the emperor's remarks, and always believed that this was the embodiment of His Majesty's far-sightedness and the eloquence of looking at everything ahead of the times.

What he didn't know was that Li Ye's theory was just a simple expression of the world he had traveled through before, and the way naval warships fought.
