Chapter 378 Naval Battle and Land Battle (Part 2)

After the violent impact, the head of the ice ship was completely embedded in the sailing battleship. The spreading ice blocked the other openings, preventing the seawater from flooding in.

The ice ships used for the main attack have hatches attached to their heads.

"You two, the surroundings are frozen." Qian Yan wrote lightly.

She was looking at Xia Fan and Ning Wanjun.

Xia Fan nodded, "Open the door."

The two-meter-high double doors opened to the inside, and the iceship cabin was completely connected with the bottom of the battleship.

This is also Jinxia City's "jump gang" method-ignore the high side of the enemy ship and open the gap directly from below. The so-called ice ship is essentially a landing ship with a ram. Its spacious interior can accommodate not only Jinxia warriors, but also two machine beasts.

This plan was not conceived purely on paper, but two simulation exercises were done on the warships of Dongsheng Kingdom. There is no watertight cabin on the lower deck of the wooden battleship, and the only obstacles that are difficult to destroy are three mast posts that lead directly from the deck to the keel. Xuanwu can pass through smoothly after removing the side guards. With the assistance of soldiers, the mechanism beast can even break through the interlayer deck , All the way from the lower level to the middle level.

That's enough.

The moment the door opened, Ning Wanjun drove Suzaku into the enemy ship first.

Ai Li followed closely behind.

The solidified ice crystals firmly froze the ship in place, and the two machine beasts walked on the ground without even shaking.

The moment Suzaku appeared, it was greeted by a volley of guns!

The opponents were not insensitive. Immediately after the impact, a team came to the ground floor with guns to check the situation. After discovering that the ice ship opened the hatch, it immediately organized a defense line on the spot. If ordinary soldiers boarded the ship first, they would definitely face a head-on attack.

It's a pity that the lead bullet was as soft as wax in front of the mechanism beast. Ning Wanjun controlled Suzaku to slash forward, and with just one blow, the imperial soldiers blocking the front row were split in two.

For a moment, the bottom floor was filled with exclamations and screams.

As a battle-tested general, the princess was unmoved at all. She retracted her gun and charged straight into the line of defense, knocking several people into the ballast barrels. What is contained in these wooden barrels is not the usual seawater, but aged red wine—the burst wood chips are flying around with the wine liquid, and the rich fruity aroma overwhelms the salty fresh blood smell for a while.

At this time, more than thirty soldiers rushed out and began to seize the ship.

Even if some imperial soldiers escaped the first wave of Suzaku's charge, they would no longer be able to resist the dense rain of air rifle bullets.

The firepower density of the two sides is obviously not at the same level.

"Don't be afraid, everyone, I'm here to rescue you! Please step back and stay away from the railing!" Airi shouted in Elvish language.

Xia Fan also saw those imprisoned elves.

Most of them were naked and locked in the side compartment in the middle of the bottom of the ship—it was said to be a compartment, but it was not much different from a cage. Several curved iron bars protruded from the bottom of the deck, inserted straight into the keel, and formed a narrow area less than one square meter with the curved ship wall.

Nearly a hundred elves were trapped in it, their faces full of pain and exhaustion. Apparently, their only task is to manipulate the tentacles of the green shuttle to provide extra power for the warship when necessary. It is difficult to see the sun all day long, and because it is closest to the sea, it is cold and humid. Their daily living conditions can be imagined.

When hearing the language of the same ethnic group, the prisoner didn't react for a while, and looked at the black giant beast in front of him in a trance. It really didn't look like an islander.

It wasn't until Airi lifted the front baffle upwards to reveal her real body that they were surprised to find that this invulnerable monster was actually driven by a clansman!

"Where... are you from?" someone asked bravely.

"Noah's tree boat." Airi jumped off Xuanwu and tied a length of hemp rope to the railing.

"Could it be...you are a fugitive?"

"Well," she nodded, but quickly shook her head again, "but not now. Noah has found a new habitat."

"A new habitat?" Everyone looked in disbelief.

"Yes, it's called Jinxia, ​​a place that even the empire can't touch." Ai Li returned to Xuanwu, controlled her feet to step backwards - the iron railing fell down under the pull of the mechanism beast, and there was no limit to the islanders. things. "You are free now, follow me to Jinxia City!"

"Leave it to her here." Ning Wanjun also jumped off Suzaku and said, "There are still enemies up there that need to be dealt with."

Rescuing the elves is only the first step of the battle strategy, the second step is to clear the entire ship and capture as many enemy ships as possible.

Xia Fan shrugged, "If I want you to stay here to guard the retreat and guard the rear for everyone, you will definitely not agree?"

"Of course." Ning Wanjun smiled, and pulled out his customary spear from the mechanism beast, "This is the only thing you can't convince me."

She turned to the Jinxia warrior who was with her, "Everyone listen to the order, rush to the deck with me, and kill all the intruders!"

"Obey, Your Highness!" Everyone responded in unison, their voices full of trust and respect.

...

The tables turned.

Tular saw that not only the Invincible and Angela, but most of the pirate ships were allocated a bare ice ship. And those ships with only a single deck did not need to go on board to fight at all, and they were broken into two pieces on the spot after only one impact.

At the same time, large-scale icing occurred on the sea level, and these ice crystals connected more than a dozen ships into a flat "land". If it were a mage to do it, at least a dozen or so would have to do it together. God knows how Jinxia City did this. Even if a hurricane blows now, it is impossible for the fleet to move a step further.

There is no doubt that all these are traps carefully arranged by the enemy. The white ice crystal ground is a desperate situation for warships, but in the eyes of Jinxia people, it is a familiar battlefield. Soldiers disembarking from the ice ship can take care of each other, support back and forth, and rush from one ship to another on their feet. At the same time, the firearms they held were much better than those of the pirates. Three or five people could overwhelm a large number of pirates.

The only function of ice ships is to transport people to the side of the fleet. This is not a naval battle at all, but a real land war.

The Invincible is certainly powerful, but it is also difficult to exert even the slightest bit of power on an unsuitable battlefield.

The lord raised his head and let the rain wet his face - he saw a golden figure swimming in the cloud, from the outline, it looked like a slender snake.

I'm afraid this thing is interfering with the mage's spellcasting, making it difficult for the fleet to move forward?

It has to be said that the people on this land are much stronger than the sharp ears of World Island, and they may become a worry for the empire in the future.

The sound of shouting and killing is close to my ears.

"My lord, the enemy is about to attack the deck, and my people can't stop them!" The captain said, clutching his bleeding forehead, "How about...you declare your surrender. There are envoys between the empire and the continental kingdom, and you are under the influence again." The conferment of nobles can be resolved through diplomatic means—"

"You have tried your best, go to the side and rest." Tural raised his hand and interrupted him.

"But my lord..."

The lord took off the wet three-cornered hat, and put it aside lovingly, "The empire spans the entire ocean, and has almost never lost a battle. If I return to Celeste as a defeated general, it will be the same as death." What's the difference?"

Looking at the Jinxia soldiers rushing to the first deck, he said calmly, "Besides, no one will know where the victory will belong until the last moment. The goddess of the moon will protect me—even in a distant strange continent." .”
