Chapter 643: Above the Sky

More and more cavalry pursued the flotilla on both sides, closely following the fleet.

Ji Lingxing said to himself, "These Arab cavalry are really persevering. ”

"Ninth sister, they are not Arab cavalry. ”

"Why not?"

Ji Aojian said solemnly, "Because the Arab cavalry actually rides camels." ”

"You're talking nonsense. Ji Lingxing didn't believe it at all, "Arabian horses are world-famous horses, even British thoroughbreds have their bloodlines, how can Arabs only ride camels?"

"Well, the Arabs are able to ride horses, but they are all in the past. ”

"How did it become a thing of the past?"

Ji Aojian said, "After the Arabs established a dynasty, it was equivalent to fighting the world, and this kind of thing can be outsourced, so it is popular to hire Turkic tribes on the steppe to replace cavalry troops." ”

"Uh......" Ji Lingxing was speechless for a while, "Then what exactly are Turks?"

"To put it simply, the nomads of the Eurasian steppes, as long as they are of mixed Caucasian and yellow races, can be called Turkic people in general terms. ”

Ji Lingxing calculated, "For thousands of years, European nomads and Asian nomads have been merging, they should all be mixed, can they all be considered Turkic?"

Actually, because of the great ethnic fusion, the Turkic language as a strong culture is widely used, so everyone thinks of themselves as Turkic. ”

"Oh. Ji Lingxing asked again, "Then these Arab dynasties like to hire Turkic cavalry, will there be any consequences?"

"You mean that?"

"It's just luring the wolf into the house!"

"Of course, there will be hidden dangers. "Ji Ao Kendo. "In the future in the world of I'Sran, what the Seljuk Empire. What the Ottoman Empire, it was all founded by the Turks. These Arabs will become the ruled. ”

"We came at a time when the Ottoman Empire was in control of the world of I'Slan. ”

"yes. Ji Aojian nodded, "The Turks occupy the I'slan world, which is very similar to the situation when the Yuan and Qing dynasties entered the Shenzhou. ”

"I see. Ji Lingxing continued to watch the cavalry running on both sides of the strait, "These Turkic cavalry also seem to be quite mighty and majestic. ”

"Mighty and majestic, there is a hairy use. Ji Aojian looked disdainful, "No matter how these cavalrymen use backward sabers, no matter how much they cut, they will only have a sound effect for us at most." ”

"You said the same thing last time, and the result was that the advanced warship was sunk by our backward artillery fire. ”

"That's a special case. Not the norm. Ji Aojian didn't care, "Besides, it is impossible for them to rely on the cavalry on land to attack our fleet at sea." ”

Ji Lingxing said, "Then how will they fight us?"

"Needless to say, the fleet will definitely be used to intercept us. ”

"Where's the fleet?"

"It's right ahead. Ji Aojian said with great confidence, "Judging from our voyage, we will see tomorrow." ”

Although after exiting the Suez Canal to the south, it can be regarded as entering the waters of the Red Sea. But actually. This narrow sea lane, currently known as the Gulf of Suez, does not enter the main surface of the Red Sea until it passes the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula.

Although the main surface of the Red Sea is still a long and narrow sea, it has reached a width of several hundred kilometers. It is no longer possible to see both sides of the strait at the same time. Therefore, if the Green Eater wants to mobilize a fleet to intercept the golden ship, he must also set up a front at the end of the Gulf of Suez at the latest. Otherwise, once you enter the Great Red Sea, the interception surface will be too wide and too large.

The same can be seen. If Moses had led the Jews from Egypt back to the land of Canaan, he had really separated the waters of the Red Sea for a short time. It could only happen in the Gulf of Suez. If it were in the Great Red Sea, the Jews would have walked through the bottom of the sea. It would take days.

Sure enough, early the next morning, the battleship fleet rushed to the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and the opposite place of the Egyptian coastline, and the exit of the Gulf of Suez was already densely lined with thousands of ships.

"Mengchong fights ships are ...... thousands" Ji Lingxing read a sentence, and felt that it was wrong, "Hey, the sea ships blocking us don't look like warships?"

"The ships of the Arab dynasties were in the Mediterranean, fighting with the fleets of the Western Romans and Italy. Ji Aojian explained, "In the Indian Ocean, there are no maritime military powers, and Arab merchants happily do business with East Africa, India, and the South Seas, so naturally they don't need a navy." ”

"Then why don't you bring in the fleet in the Mediterranean?"

"Isn't the Suez Canal still open?"

"Oh yes, their navy has to bypass all of Africa to access the Red Sea, of course it's too late. ”

Ji Lingxing was still puzzled, "Then they are now requisitioning civilian ships and merchant ships to fight with us, is it possible to stop our powerful fleet?"

"In terms of firepower, of course, they are a mayfly and vulnerable. Ji Aojian frowned, "However, there are too many of their ships, and I am afraid that there are thousands of them, which is much more than I expected." ”

"Will we not have enough shells?"

"It's possible. Ji Aojian sighed, "Moreover, these civilian ships have almost no attack ability, and the only way to fight is to rush up and fight in a jumping gang battle." No matter how many ships they sink against, as long as they can board our ships, they will have achieved their battle goal. ”

"What should I do?"

Ji Lingxing could imagine that the ships on the opposite side must have been filled with elite medieval warriors. And the sailors on their ships are still dwarfs who have regressed in their physique in the early days of the Industrial Revolution, and they only have the skill of firing artillery, and they are scum in hand-to-hand combat.

Moreover, there were large groups of Turkic cavalry on both sides of the bay, which not only caused a siege on three sides, but could also be boarded at any time as a reserve for the green-clothed water army to engage in broadside battles.

Ji Aojian had a serious face, "If we want to rush out, there is only one way." ”

"What's the solution?"

"Capture the thief and capture the king first. ”

"I see, let's destroy the other party's flagship. Ji Lingxing looked left and right and observed for a while, "But none of their ships are particularly eye-catching, how can they find the command ship?"

"Ninth sister, their head is not on the water, but in the sky. ”

Ji Lingxing was stunned, "In the sky?"

Ji Ao swordsman pointed his hand, "Look above the fleet opposite, there is a cloud. ”

Originally, the high temperature climate of the tropical ocean often makes the sky cloudless. But above the countless ships, there was a conspicuous white cloud floating not very high, and above the clouds, there were two figures standing faintly.

The little girl was completely shocked, "How the hell are they standing on the clouds, this is too contrary to the laws of gravity!"

Ji Aojian spread his hands, "This, I don't know." ”

"That's not actually a white cloud. Ji Shengdian, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating his mind, finally spoke, "It's a white flying carpet." ”

"It turned out to be a flying carpet. Ji Aojian was relieved, as a representative symbol of Arab culture, there are high-ranking people standing on the flying carpet, which sounds very reasonable.

Ji Lingxing pouted and said, "Third sister, even if it's a flying carpet, you can't disrespect the effect of gravity." ”

Ji Shengdian's eyes still hadn't opened, "There is a qi element underneath to support it." ”

"Qi elemental?" Ji Aojian asked, "Could it be that this great master of Arabia, like the great druid of the Celtic civilization, can summon elements to fight?"

"That's how it should be. ”

"Since it's a summon, there's nothing to be afraid of. ”

Ji Aojian's figure suddenly jumped up from the bow of the ship, like a rainbow light passing across the sea, straight to the position of the flying carpet in the sky.

"Hey, little sword!" Ji Lingxing shouted, "Don't be impulsive!"

Thinking about it, the tenth sister has defeated many great druids in the European Ancient Civilization Competition before, and she no longer cares about summoning-type masters. (To be continued.) )
