Chapter 794: Shocking debut
Cai Ning's roundabout outflanking plan failed, he was not surprised at all, if it was really so easy to succeed, the other party would not be the navy.
Commanding the warship to chase Situ Muran, Cai Ning is confident that he will be able to catch up with those broken ships sooner or later, and he already has a plan in his heart, attacking from afar, and he must not cross the ship, because he has long found that the draft of the opponent's warship is too deep, and there are either heavy cargo or more soldiers in the cabin, this answer is not difficult to guess, he has never heard that the guy who takes the initiative to provoke the war will fill the ship with drag, then there is only one answer, the right cabin is full of soldiers, and they plan to land and fight, but is this possible? Cai Ning couldn't help but sneer.
On the island, more and more people gathered around the woman, and a strong man said respectfully: "Boss, the empire sent the navy over, Cai Ning has taken almost all the traitors out, should we take the opportunity to seize power?" ”
The woman was silent for a long time, shook her head slightly, and said, "Let everyone disperse, now is not the time, they are not opponents." The woman's voice lingered, and her tone was flat and soft, as if nothing had happened, but her words, the others did not dare to refute, and although the strong man was unwilling, he waved his hand to let everyone disperse.
After a long time, the woman spoke, "Hongying, Tie Niu, you will go to the port in a moment, and if you can, create some chaos." When the girl in red and the strong man heard this, their eyes showed joy, and they promised to leave quickly.
The woman sighed softly: "There is only so much I can do, I hope I can help you, the Eastern Saint Empire, has it really decayed to this extent?" The woman's eyes were full of loss, her eyes looked into the distance, and she unconsciously fell into the memories of the past, and perhaps only there could she find a trace of comfort.
On the deck of the Blue Sky, Situ Muran had passed through the northeast corner of the island for the second time, holding a telescope to observe the movements on the island.
On the coast, heavy crossbows were set up on platforms built of boulders, and there were only three or five islands lazily leaning on each heavy crossbow and pointing at the sea, without the slightest tension of battle, and in the distance, a small group of pirates patrolled by, saying something to the old and weak women and children who had gathered, and the two sides quarreled, and finally the pirates left in a huff.
Looking at the old and weak people dressed up, young and old, both male and female, and these young and strong men were also mixed in with them, their expressions were not clear to Situ Muran, but judging from their movements, these people were all paying attention to the chase on the sea.
Turning a corner, the direction of the naval fleet was due west, which was the direction in which they had come, and where the hope was.
With a cheer, the lookout on the mast pointed to the sky in front of him and shouted: "It's the Air Force, the Air Force has arrived." ”
Situ Muran looked up at the sky, and more than a dozen small black dots appeared in the distance, leaving traces in the sky of the familiar white mist, and quickly dissipated.
Situ Muran secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at the pirate ship that was in hot pursuit, and smiled faintly: "Inform the heavy cavalry in the cabin to prepare for landing operations." The herald grinned and ran to herald.
The appearance of the Air Force has boosted the morale of the entire Navy, and some have even begun to cheer, as if victory has come.
Buzz, buzz, a dull and familiar voice came, Situ Muran looked back, two heavy crossbows crossed the shallow parabola and slammed into the tail of a medium-sized warship behind the broken fleet, with a bang, sawdust splashing everywhere, followed by a howl of pain.
After a while, the first mate ran to report: "General, the Tsing Yi is damaged, the cabin has been broken, many people in the cabin have been injured, and the bottom of the ship is slightly damaged and is being repaired." ”
Situ Muran nodded: "Let them speed out of the opponent's range, and order the Black Wind to take over the position of the Tsing Yi and fight back freely." The first mate was ordered to leave, the herald quickly raised the flag, the wounded Tsing Yi was hit by another arrow and accelerated away from the battlefield, the carpenter began to repair the damage, and the military doctor who accompanied the ship also began to treat the wounded.
The appearance of the air force also alarmed the pirates, Cai Ning's insolent smile on his face froze on his face, and he stared blankly at the sky in front of him, his face was full of shock and disbelief, and even the raised hand froze there, and it didn't fall for a long time.
The pirate who controlled the two large heavy crossbows in the bow of the ship was stunned when he saw his big boss, and at this time their heavy crossbow had already been aimed, and the broken ship that was hit just now was speeding up, and was about to move out of range, and the sailor couldn't help but ask: "Big boss, can you shoot or not?" Wait any longer and the boat will run away. ”
Cai Ning still didn't react, and the sailor followed Cai Ning's gaze to the sky, but he was startled, and pointed to the strange airship in the sky in horror and said, "Those, what are those things?" ”
Bang, one of the sailors accidentally touched the trigger, and the crossbow was fired, and the crossbow arrow grazed the side of the Tsing Yi and fell into the sea, and the pirates ignored it, and they all looked up at the sky.
Yu Jingqiu ordered in a deep voice: "Let General Situ keep as far distance as possible from the enemy ships, and order the Dawn to lead the team to attack the left flank, and the Tianyao to attack the right flank, and the team will reduce the altitude to one thousand, the speed is ten knots, Qingru, and command the bomb drop." ”
Orders were passed through the flags, and the Daybreak and the Sky Dawn were ordered to disperse left and right, the cabin windows open, and the bombardiers were ready.
Cai Ning came back to his senses and shouted, "Archers, archers shoot me, shoot those monsters down for me." ”
A few fast archers came to the deck, looked up at the sky, stretched their bows and arrows, and after a few swishs, three feathered arrows shot straight into the sky.
The feather arrow still could not escape the pull of gravity, and the castration gradually exhausted, and it fell weakly in mid-air one hundred and dozens of meters above the ground, and fell into the sea dangerously clinging to the bow of the pirate ship.
The huge airship floated like a dark cloud, pressing on the hearts of every pirate, making people breathless, more than a dozen small black dots fell, the pirates were at a loss, when the first incendiary bomb landed on the deck of the pirate ship, with the first roar, the air force of the Eastern Saint Empire opened the curtain of the new era, and officially stepped on the stage of war and glory.
At the same time, Situ Muran commanded the fleet to turn around and prepare to participate in the battle, sailors and soldiers, all on the deck, according to Situ Muran's meaning, to see if he could grab a few warships in the chaos, no way, he was too red-eyed, what kind of world is this, the pirate's dress is better than the navy's, and it is more unified, which is unacceptable to Situ Muran and all the navies, so what should I do? Either sink or rob.
In the air, Yu Jingqiu commanded the combat team to staggered with the pirate ships on the sea, after a high-intensity saturation bombing, the results were not optimistic, except for the first pirate ship, which was Cai Ning's flagship, which was blown up and ignited, most of the other pirate ships were unharmed, only a few places were on fire, and they were quickly extinguished by the pirates, with little impact.
