Chapter 173: Han Xiao can't fly

The naval battle finally broke out.

Both sides gave up their temptations, and the fiercest confrontation began at the beginning of the war. The Liberty was quite embarrassed at this time, the three Lingyun ships didn't even count their thoughts, and even seemed to be a burden in the eyes of others, after the war, the three Lingyun ships formed a huge sea fortress, and rushed towards the warship group of the Western pirates on the opposite side without dodging.

Although there is a gap in the spirit cannon, but the Lingyun ship is better than the ship's strong artillery, and more importantly, the Lingyun ship's hull is long enough, and a large number of spirit cannons are fired together, at this time, the advantage of those Western pirates' spirit cannons is very weak.

But the most important thing is the movement of the fire dragon.

Western pirates didn't seem to have any intention of fighting head-to-head with the Imperial Navy, after all, in the final analysis, they could only highlight their advantages by fighting guerrilla warfare at sea, and the more important reason was that their supplies were not as abundant as the Huating Empire's navy, and they couldn't bear it in the face of a war of attrition.

The same principle applies to the Huating Imperial Navy, which can barely hold the waters of the West Sea, just because the supplies are sufficient, if they cross the ocean to fight in the West, the long supply line will directly drag down the navy.

However, in this battle, it is no longer about supplies, but about real strength.

The Liberty didn't fit into the Lingyun formation, and at first they didn't see anything wrong, but soon they realized that the shape was getting worse and worse. Even the elites of these Western pirates are well versed in the truth of picking persimmons and pinching them. The battleship group composed of three Lingyun ships is intimidating in terms of firepower, and the firepower of Western pirates is a bit petty.

"Hmph, but a group of barbarians who have just learned to sail a boat want to challenge the majesty of my Celestial Empire, I really don't know whether to live or die. Standing on the Lingyun ship, Luo Yi looked at the Western pirates on the opposite side who were suppressed by their firepower and couldn't even move forward, and couldn't help but show a smug smile on his face: "I really don't know what those waste of the Pompeii Legion have in their heads, and they can't clean up such a group of pirates who are not bullshit and can't fight quickly, and even have the face to ask the imperial capital for help?"

Since the beginning of the war, Luo Yi has been extremely excited, although the deputy commander of the Xuanwu Legion has a noble status and a transcendent status, this is the first time in his life that he has fought against Western pirates. When he was cultivating in the imperial capital before, he had more or less heard some news about Western pirates, but this general who was originally a pirate was born with a sense of closeness to pirates, and when he heard about the attack of Western pirates at first, he even felt very interesting.

But now it seems that these Western pirates are too much different from the rumors, seeing that more than a dozen pirate ships on the opposite side were beaten and had no power to fight back, how could Luo Yi control his excitement. The ridicule of the Pompeii Legion is not just for the sake of mockery, but a genuine contempt.

"Look, that group of waste over there, some little pirates beat them like that, when will the Imperial Navy run out of this kind of waste wood?" Luo Yi stood on the Lingyun ship, watching the Freedom being entangled by the warships of the three Western pirates, and said with a sneer, quite a bit of a point in the country.

The vice admiral said yes again and again, but his eyes never left the Western pirate ships opposite. Although the Xuanwu Legion had never fought directly with Western pirates, as a high-ranking general in the Imperial Navy, this lieutenant general had never stopped learning about the situation of the Battle of the Western Sea. He was also well aware of the pros and cons of Western pirates, and it was not surprising to him that this battle would turn out as it was. After all, the advantage of Western pirates is that the ship is fast and the spirit cannon firepower is fierce, and this time the Lingyun ship was dispatched instead of the Shenwei ship, with the idea of defeating these Western pirates.

The Lingyun ship is the strongest warship, as long as the ship of the Western pirates is not equipped with a top-level spirit cannon like a coffin cannon, it is definitely impossible to pose much threat to them, on the contrary, they can fight each other as much as possible in the naval battle, and now it is completely a matter of using advantages to fight the opponent's disadvantages, which should have been this situation.

What the lieutenant is really worried about is the opponent's back hand, and the fire dragon that has never moved. If the strength of the Western pirates was limited to this, it would be impossible for the Pompeii Legion to fight in the Western Sea for three years in a row without completely eliminating these guys. If something happened by chance, it might be a matter of luck, but the Western pirates had not really lost their occupation of the West Sea for three years while crossing the ocean, and only a few months ago had a spirit cannon captured for the first time. To say that they have no special means, the adjutant general will not believe anything.

Sure enough, just when the crews of the three Lingyun ships thought that this battle was going to end in this way, the Western pirate ships on the opposite side suddenly began to act. Prior to this, under the fierce attack of the Lingyun ship, the dozen or so pirate ships seemed to be completely paralyzed, unable to advance or retreat in the water, and even the fire dragon was beaten very wolfly. But at this moment, all the Western pirate ships began to speed up violently, and the speed of this instant increase was amazing, even giving people the feeling that a huge water demon had pulled the warship and moved with them.

The pirate ship rushed so violently that the imperial naval officers on the Lingyun ship were caught off guard for a while, and the scene at that moment was extremely gorgeous, the spirit cannon impact that was originally attacking the pirate ship, because of the sudden disappearance of the pirate ship, for a while, the place where the pirate ship gathered, the sea water was directly blasted out of a wave as high as more than ten zhang, such a scene rarely appeared even in naval battles.

"Oh no!" Seeing this, the lieutenant general of the Xuanwu Legion changed color and shouted.

Luo Yi looked at the deputy general beside him angrily, and said coldly: "What's the matter, these pirates have been crumbled by us, can't you see it?" ”

"No, never. The vice admiral subconsciously shouted, and even ignored Luo Yi's angry expression and said stubbornly: "Our advantage is that the hull is strong, but the speed of the ship is not as good as these pirate ships." Before, they couldn't withstand our onslaught because our firepower was too dense, and they couldn't be beaten for a while, so they naturally looked wolf. But now that they have suddenly gotten rid of them, they have all dispersed, and in such a situation it is difficult for us to show our superiority in firepower, and the only advantage left is to ensure that we will not be sunk immediately. For today's plan, we still have to hug together. ”

"Just let them beat around?" Luo Yi asked with a cold face.

After all, he is a powerhouse in the Xuan Realm, and the deputy general felt Luo Yi's amazing coercion, and immediately showed a frightened look, and said again and again: "It's not that they are surrounded by fights, but they can't act rashly for the time being, and they need to find their disadvantages." ”

"Recklessly, do you mean the old man's decision was rash?" Luo Yi still asked indifferently.

The lieutenant didn't dare to say a word again, and in the face of such a stubborn coach, he knew that it was useless to say anything. At this time, the flags on the lookout of the other two Lingyun ships were displayed almost at the same time, and the content of the flags was exactly what the vice admiral said before, the three Lingyun ships should be hugged tightly, and the enemy wanted to divide the Lingyun ships and break them one by one, and this opportunity could not be given to them.

Luo Yi looked at the flags on the other two Lingyun ships with a pale face, and finally glanced at the vice general coldly and said, "Do as you say." ”

The adjutant general, as if he had been granted amnesty, immediately ran down and began to organize the battle.

The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, that's the reason, the tactics of the Western pirates are good, and the escape at that moment just now is indeed amazing, but in the face of the Lingyun ship, which is as stable as Mount Tai, these Western pirates still can't succeed for a while.

Compared to the stability of the Lingyun ship, Han Xiao and their Liberty are now quite wolf-like. At the beginning of the war, they were already surrounded by three pirate ships, which made Han Xiao, who was experienced in combat, quite passive.

"It's too fast, these pirate ships are really too fast. This is the clearest idea of Han Xiao now, the reason why they were surrounded as soon as the war started was because the pirate ships of the Western pirates were really too fast.

However, not all ships are as strong as the Lingyun ship, and not all small warships are built by a wealthy family like the Zhao family. The USS Liberty is more of a mobile sea fortress than a small warship. Not to mention, just the hull made of Xuanyuan wood is enough to make it proud among small warships, and even if some medium-sized warships want to sink the Liberty in a short time, it is not so easy.

Thanks to the sturdiness of the ship, the Liberty was surrounded at the beginning of the war, but it has maintained its vigorous combat strength until now. It's a pity that the three pirate ships surrounding them are not the third-rate goods before, although they can't cause any irreparable damage to the Liberty in the process of maneuvering with the Liberty, but they can't deal a substantial blow to those Western pirates at all.

This is the real stalemate, Han Xiao and they are helpless. But when they saw the changes in the shape of the main battlefield in the distance, Han Xiao finally gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Damn, it seems that you still have to rush up and kill it." ”

Han Xiao is not a reckless man, but he has to admit that if he wants to open up the situation now, he can't do this with the current situation of the Freedom. The only way is to take the risk and rush straight to the boat. Although the firepower of the Western pirates' warships is strong, as long as they do not have any special internal structure, the number of monks on any warship will definitely not exceed a hundred, and with their current strength, it is not necessarily impossible to destroy this kind of enemy.

"Then let's do it, it's useless to just talk about it here. "Brahma was always a pragmatist, and when he said that, he didn't even want to jump into the sea. No one doubted Brahma's strength, although no one had seen exactly what he did before this, but the battle record was already there, and he himself destroyed the pirates on two pirate ships in the time of a stick of incense, and there was nothing more convincing than this.

"Han Xiao, do you have to do this?" Han Xiao was just about to leave, Chen Jiao stepped forward and asked.

Han Xiao smiled bitterly, pointed to the Western pirate warships that were patrolling around and constantly firing cannons, and said: "Otherwise, what can you do? These guys are obviously ready to consume us to the death, our ship is durable, but after all, it has not yet reached the invincible Cheng DΓΉ." ”

"If he likes to go, let him go, but it's just a subordinate, you like this type of subordinate, I'll put together a boat for you after you return to the imperial capital." Princess Jiaoyang came up at an inopportune time and said.

"Shut up for me, what's the matter with you!" Chen Jiao roared angrily, causing Princess Jiaoyang's body to tremble violently, and she looked at Chen Jiao with an aggrieved face and said, "People are also good for you, but they are just subordinates." ”

"You know shit, shut up. Chen Jiao scolded angrily. Sure enough, after this roar, Princess Jiaoyang honestly closed her mouth.

Han Xiao gave a thumbs up and said in a low voice: "Sure enough, there is a set, if it really doesn't work, just accept her." ”

", the dog can't spit out ivory. Chen Jiao continued to scold angrily.

Han Xiao laughed, turned around and jumped directly off the Liberty. Seeing his actions, almost everyone on board was shocked. Brahma didn't cause too many people to be shocked by jumping into the sea just now, because Brahma always had a superior demeanor, and when he didn't speak, his strong aura was indeed terrifying. But Han Xiao still looked a little childish now, especially since the people on the boat could more or less feel that the huge wooden stake he always carried behind his back should be very heavy. The monk was already very weak in the sea, and with such a heavy thing on his back, he did not know whether he was going to kill the enemy or commit suicide.

Princess Jiaoyang looked at Han Xiao's disappearance with a dull expression, and said with a stunned expression: "The thing on his back weighs a thousand pounds, right, is it okay to go to the sea like this?"

"The Emperor List weighs 10,000 catties. After all, this is not an unspeakable secret, Chen Jiao still showed off to Han Xiao in a very low-key manner.

Hearing this, even the three Xuanxuan Realm powerhouses who had been pretending to be deaf all the time opened their eyes suddenly. Just such a wooden stake, can it weigh 10,000 catties? Also, when he carries a 10,000-pound wooden stake, he can move freely?

Just when these people were stunned because of the weight of the Earth Emperor List, a wave suddenly appeared on the water, but this wave was not hit by the spirit cannon on the water, but a person suddenly rushed out of the water. It was none other than Han Xiao, who had just jumped into the sea for a short time.

Han Xiao's current appearance is very strange, not too strong physique, but he is carrying a strangely shaped and not small wooden stake behind his back, giving people the feeling that he is carrying a huge unopened umbrella. It's a little funny, but it has a bit of a chivalrous taste in the world.

If he just rushed out of the water, it wouldn't cause much panic, but when people saw him rushing higher and higher, the better and better, and finally even jumping out of the water more than ten feet high, Princess Jiaoyang stared at him with wide eyes and continued to jump high, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Can he fly?"
