Chapter 207: The Great Victory (2)

The end of the naval battle was already a day and a night later. The overall loss of the Great Food Fleet was seventy or eighty percent, there were broken wood wreckage everywhere, and a large area of the sea seemed to be covered with a carpet, and the blood color was still spreading, drifting farther along the current.

The Great Eclipse's magic weapon warships were almost completely wiped out, and there were very few escapees, with a total of no more than 100 ships, and its main general, Monchitaz, was captured by Yang Xingmi himself.

The Lingnan Naval Division also suffered a lot of losses, and more than half of the battleships were sunk.

Although the attack of the cruiser formation was smooth in the general trend, the Crescent monks were not afraid of death, and even if they did not obtain the power of the true gods and could not set off more storms, the crazy behavior of their crews piloting the battleship and ramming the Exoces everywhere still played a lot of roles in the second half of the war.

Monchitaz was seriously injured by Yang Xingmi's shot, and on the way to the Chang'an ship, he always looked like he had nothing to love, but he wanted to die quickly, until he saw the Chang'an ship in the baggage group, and his eyes immediately recovered.

It was a gaze of extreme fanaticism and extreme fear, as if a warlock had summoned a demon from hell and seen the power he had always dreamed of, but knew that he too would be consumed by it.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, can you take a look at this battleship?" Ignoring his serious injuries and dying life, Monchitaz saluted Li Ye with longing and suplication, and that pious look was probably only available when facing the true God.

Li Ye waved his hand and agreed to Monchitaz's request.

In the previous naval battle, the two Chang'an ships did not participate in the battle, Mo said that the big cannibals did not know about this existence, and only Yang Xingmi, Zhou Ben, and the soldiers on the Chang'an ship in the Lingnan Naval Division knew its specific situation.

Li Ye agreed to let Monchitaz visit the Chang'an ship, also to see the other party's eagerness. At this time, he is like an old farmer with a good harvest, and he is happy to show off his hard work to others. Monchitaz's reaction was very helpful.

According to Li Ye's instructions, the soldiers did not hide the situation of the Chang'an ship, from the structure of the ship to the configuration of the magic circle and the bow and crossbow, but everything that Menghitaz asked, knew everything.

Monchitaz was very excited the whole time, first his lips were trembling, then his hands were shaking, and finally his whole body began to tremble, and he couldn't even walk steadily—this was also due to the fact that his injuries were too severe to treat, but it was clearly not the main reason.

The more Monchitaz behaved like a bun, the more proud Li Ye felt in his heart, although he couldn't see any change in his face, he hoped that the other party would react more. The fear, recognition and reverence from the enemy greatly enhanced Li Ye's satisfaction.

After visiting the Chang'an ship, when Menghitaz returned to Li Ye again, he could no longer see half of the blood on his face, and it was as white as paper. However, his expression regained his calmness, and there was a kind of calmness that he had no choice but to accept his fate.

"The strength of the warships of the Tang Dynasty is unseen and unheard of, and His Majesty has such a divine weapon, and the ministers are indeed unmatched. In this battle, the minister was convinced. Monchitaz saluted Li Ye again, behaving in a proper manner, and surrendering to the strong from the heart.

Yang Xingmi saw that Monchitaz was very respectful to Li Ye and full of respect for the Lingnan Naval Division, so he had a good impression of the other party, and as the commander of the fleet, he could also understand the feelings of the other party.

He said: "Since the general knows that the Tang fleet is invincible, it is better to take refuge in Lingnan."

Marine, allegiance to Your Majesty. With the status and ability of a general, it will inevitably be useful to our army in the future, and when our Tang Dynasty dominates the world, the general will also be famous in history. ”

These words fell on Li Ye's ears, which made him quite moved. Although Monchitaz is a great general, Li Ye has the mind to accept all rivers, and even the three good Qingxing and Ping Xishi of the Wa Kingdom can be used, as long as Monchitaz is willing to be loyal, he will not tolerate the other party.

After all, what Li Ye will face in the future is the vast world outside this world, and it has always been his wish to gather all the forces in this world.

However, at this moment, Li Ye knew that Yang Xingmi's kindness could only be a bamboo basket to draw water.

Monchitaz expressed his gratitude to Yang Xingmi, but his position was very firm, "It is indeed a great honor to be the general of the world's Zhiqiang fleet, but I am the chief general of the Great Qin Fleet, and I have shared the glory and disgrace with the Great Qin Fleet in this life. ”

Speaking of this, Monchtaz looked at Li Ye, and his eyes were full of hope, "If he can die in the hands of His Majesty, it will be the last glory of Monchitaz!"

Li Ye sighed, not without regret. He had long seen that Monchitaz had no hope of survival. In other words, he is Monchitaz, and he is not willing to live at the moment. If a proud warrior can't achieve victory, dying on the battlefield is his final destination, and it is also a choice to live up to his status.

"General go. Li Ye didn't say anything more, and stabbed Monchitaz in the chest with a clean sword. At this time, leaving the other party a whole corpse is his greatest respect for this opponent.

Yang Xingmi looked at Monchitaz and closed his eyes, which was also a little pity.

The reason why more than 100 of the Great Eater Warships were able to escape was because of the strength of Monchitaz. From that moment on, Yang Xingmi could feel that the rout and destruction of the fleet had made Monchitaz's heart like ashes, and he just wanted to die on the battlefield and retain the last trace of dignity.

After cleaning up the battlefield, he quickly landed north to respond to the battle of the Chang'an Forbidden Army in Mulu City. Li Ye gave Yang Xingmi a military order.

As long as the Lingnan Sea Division lands, he will be able to open up another battlefield on the flank of the eastern border of Dashi, the eastern theater of Dashi with Mulu City as the core.

After this battle, the Lingnan fleet, which originally had only 100,000 monks, now has only more than 80,000 soldiers, but the marine army of the Lingnan Naval Division was carefully cultivated by Li Ye and trained by Yang Xingmi day and night.

Yang Xingmi took the order and went to arrange everything personally, Li Ye stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the blood-colored sea with his hands in his hands, and the outline between his eyebrows was like a line between heaven and earth.

The pursuit and containment of the remnants of the 60,000 guards of the Great Food Army by the Wolf Tooth Army was not as smooth as imagined after the other party's 100,000 fresh troops returned to help.

Ma Lun put the fresh army in front, confronted the Wolf Tooth Army, let the 60,000 defeated troops retreat to the back, and at the same time sent the Great Monk to block the air, so that the Tang Monk Scouts could not fly, and the Wolf Tooth Army had no way to know whether the 60,000 defeated troops were resting not far away, or had retreated to Mulu City.

In the face of 100,000 fresh troops, the Wolf Tooth Army has no ability to charge into battle for the time being.

After several entanglements, when the strength of the Wolf Tooth Army recovered more than half, the 100,000 guards began to retreat. On the way they retreated, it was full of the elite of the Great Food Standing Army, as well as the shadows of the 60,000 remnants of the previous army

Ma Lun's skill in arranging troops was so clever that the Wolf Tooth Army felt that the grass and trees were all soldiers, and even if it was Shangguan Chengcheng, he could not accurately judge where it was suitable for battle, and where there must be no ambushes.

In this case, the Wolf Fang Army could not attack rashly. The Guards retreated very quickly, getting closer and closer to Mulu City, and the distance between the Tiger Guards and the Yulin Army following behind the Wolf Tooth Army had been shortened to a limited extent.

"That's it. Li Ye waved his hand, signaling that the Wolf Tooth Army did not have to go further, "The further we go, the more the Great Food Army, the more dangerous the Wolf Tooth Army will be, and the less initiative we can grasp, and we can't continue to go deep into the quagmire." ”

Li Ye appreciated Maren's battlefield talent, and also sensed the aggravation of the dangerous aura, and the previously speculated situation was developing in a bad direction. In the final analysis, the Wolf Tooth Army moves forward alone, and if the distance is too long, it will commit the taboo of going deep alone.

It's a problem that can't be solved.

Ma Lun's cleverness lies in the fact that in terms of speed, he has always let the Guards be a new force, leading the nose of the Wolf Tooth Army, and always making the Tiger Guards and Yulin Army unable to keep up, regaining a considerable part of the initiative.

"The battle of Mulu City is inevitable, and next, we can only fight steadily. Li Ye looked back, since he had decided to give up the pursuit, there was no reason to stay and linger.

When the Wolf Tooth Army retreated to Nasebo City, Mullen was at the head of a mountain, his eyes were full of regret, and some chagrin, "As long as the Wolf Tooth Army goes forward fifty miles, my encirclement can be completed, this is the best time to annihilate the Wolf Tooth Army, it's a pity"

Looking at the guards behind him, as well as the elite of the standing army on the left and right, Mullen was in a bad mood. If the Wolf Tooth Army enters the ambush site, with the opponent's current strength, Mullen is sure to defeat the opponent before the Tiger Guard and the Yulin Army catch up.

Unlike when he underestimated the combat strength of the Tang Army before, this time he was really sure, and he made an absolutely reasonable speculation after having a clear understanding of the combat strength of the Tang Army.

"Li Ye is really a dog's nose, and it is annoying to be able to smell danger so quickly. Mullen let out a long breath, he didn't get too entangled, turned away from the hill, and ordered the whole army to retreat at full speed.

As long as the 160,000 guards can smoothly return to the defense line of Mulu City, the battle situation of Dashi can be stabilized, and the worst can hold on for a year and a half, and as long as the progress of the navy is not too slow, everything is still promising.

Thinking like this, Mullen's pupils suddenly shrank, and he saw a group of great monks in front of him, flying quickly in embarrassment and panic. He felt the slightest bit wrong, for he quickly recognized it as the messenger of the navy. Before, he got the news that the navy had encountered the Datang fleet, and it was brought back by the other party.

"The battle in the Navy is over so soon?" said Malen secretly wondered.

Today, he has long dared not underestimate Tang Jun. It makes no sense that the Chang'an forbidden army is very difficult, but the Lingnan fleet is vulnerable. Of course, this possibility is not absolutely impossible, and if so, it is undoubtedly great news.

However, the other party's demeanor made Maren have to think: "Or is something wrong?"

When the other party stepped forward and reported the situation of the naval battle with tears in his eyes, Malen's heart, which was already hanging in the air, almost jumped out of his throat, and his eyes were also black.

At this moment, Ma Lun understood that Da Shi had completely lost his offensive ability against Datang, and the only thing he could do next was to defend unilaterally.
