Volume 1 Lonely Island Fall Chapter 190 Besieging Ye Village
Yue Xi'er didn't take it lightly.
Recalling the few previous battle cases of Ye Mo, Yue Xi'er maintained a high degree of jǐng ti in her heart.
Ye Mo is by no means an ordinary city lord.
He was able to rank among the ten new city lords of Qingyun Immortal Academy with his scattered cultivation body, defeated the siege of ten small villages, and was still in the battle of the ancient shipwreck, and brazenly snatched several spirit boxes from many city lords, he was definitely a city lord with a very high mind.
"Come on, arrange people to check all the sub-islands of Ye Clan's Immortal Village, see if there are any traps and let all the ships at the same time, pay attention to the movement of the Spirit Eagle Sky Cavalry, and be careful of the other party's sudden attack on our fleet"
Yue Xi'er stood on the flagship deck with her hands in her hands, looking at the empty sea in the distance, her heart throbbing inexplicably.
"Moon City Lord, Dang Mou personally went to explore those islands. As long as the Ye Clan Immortal Village has any tricks, it will not be able to escape my eyes. ”
A city lord said in a deep voice.
"Since the party city lord is willing to go, it is very good. Take twenty ships with you, and be careful not to scatter your forces."
Yue Xi'er nodded lightly, and did not refuse the party city lord's initiative to ask.
More than 20 seagoing ships, breaking away from the huge fleet and sailing towards an island.
Yue Xi'er's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, wearing a light dress fluttering in the sea breeze, standing alone, carrying a water spirit sword at her waist, with an indescribable heroic spirit.
Those city lords who didn't have a task were relaxed, although Ye Clan Spirit Island did not announce its surrender, as long as they gave up all the islands, it was actually no different from surrender.
There is only one immortal village left on the main island, and without resource income, the only result is barely making a living, can it afford to turn over the sky?
As long as the Yue Clan Alliance can successfully take away the many islands in Ye Village, and Ye Mo can't fight back against them, it will be considered a great success.
There are even city lords who have begun to discuss privately and divide up the plan.
The Kong Immortal Village had just handed over more than ten sub-islands, plus the fifteen islands of the Ye Immortal Village, the number was already enough for each of them to two.
"I heard that in the branch island of Ye's Immortal Village, there is a red fire mine island, which is a lot of wealth. ”
"Don't dream, this kind of resource island is the focus of everyone's competition, and no matter how it is, you and I can't take it
"I'm afraid this kind of bonanza island will only fall into the hands of the Yue Clan's Immortal Village and the other two strong villages. ”
Several city lords looked at each other and sighed at the same time.
Although they joined the Yue Clan Alliance, except for two or three core city lords, the other city lords did not have much say, and when the benefits were distributed, it was naturally the strongest city lords who ate meat, and they followed to drink soup.
A few hours later, the sea ship that had gone out to investigate returned, and the news brought reconfirmed that the Ye Immortal Village had withdrawn all the manpower on the island.
Behind Yue Xi'er, a burly man in a green robe, he looked at Yue Xi'er, who was frowning and silent, and asked, "Moon City Lord, do you think there is something strange in it?"
This person is one of the few cores in the alliance and is deeply trusted by Yue Xi'er.
"There must be a problem"
Yue Xi'er nodded solemnly and said, "If he was willing to surrender, he would have joined my Yue Clan Alliance a long time ago." Since he didn't join the alliance, he had to give it a go."
The blue-robed man nodded slowly while thinking: "Perhaps, he wants to preserve his strength." It's impossible for our warships to stay here forever and wait for our army to withdraw before he sends ships to attack?"
There was a young man in Chinese clothes standing next to him, and when he heard this, he frowned and said, "The main island of Ye Village cannot be attacked. If that's the case, wouldn't we be in a dilemma? We still have to deal with the Knowles Alliance, and it is impossible for the fleet of hundreds of warships to stay here forever."
Yue Xi'er shook her head and said, "This is also what I'm worried about. The Ye Clan's Immortal Village will contain our large fleet. There is also the Knowles Alliance in the west, and we can't afford to delay here for too long. ”
The eyes of the blue-robed man showed a ruthless sè: "The main island of Ye Village is bound by the Immortal Alliance, and it cannot be attacked." But outside the island, on the sea, there are no constraints. Strictly speaking, even if it is a sea surface one zhang away from the main island of Ye Village, it does not belong to the main island of Ye Village, and we beat the Ye family's sea boats, it is also a naval battle, not an attack on Ling Island!"
The young man in Chinese clothes was stunned for a moment: "You mean, destroy all the ships on the sea outside the main island of the Ye family?
Dahan snorted coldly: "Who let him have so many warships." It is said that there are already more than 20 ships, although they are not compared to us, but they are also extremely powerful, and he refuses to surrender, and does not join our alliance, so this is the only way."
"That's it, first surround the main island of the Ye clan and sink all the warships in Ye Village. So they had no ships to go and recover their islands.
In addition, the number of sea ships of the city lord of Kong is also quite large, and they must be sold to us at a discount.
After our main fleet withdraws from here, we can use the one or twenty more sea ships sold to us by the Kong Clan to continue to send people to besiege the Ye Clan's Immortal Village
As long as the sea route of Ye's Immortal Village is besieged to death and foreign supplies are cut off, within ten days and a half months, they will collapse and surrender sooner or later. ”
Yue Xi'er pondered for a moment and said.
When the surrounding city lords heard this, they showed an awe-inspiring look one by one.
Yue Xi'er This is to completely disintegrate the strength of the warship of the Kong Immortal Village, and use the strength of the Kong Village to deal with Ye Village, and eliminate all the hidden dangers that may arise.
As the Yue Clan's fleet slaughtered towards the Ye Clan's main island, the atmosphere was already very tense.
The ships of the Zhongye clan moored in the harbor, a famous gunner and sailor, all nervously guarded their posts, obeyed the orders of the shipowner, and made preparations for the battle.
The Ye clan warships did not attack, and the twenty warships went to fight the one hundred warships of the Yue Clan Alliance, which was to hit the stone with an egg.
On the pier, there are rows of improvised high platforms.
Dozens of bronze cannons lined up protected the entire port. Next to each bronze cannon, there are several gunners in charge, filling it with gunpowder and black iron projectiles, holding torches and preparing to fire the cannons.
Chang Fei stood on a spiritual wood building in the port, and looked at the sea ships of the Yue Clan Alliance outside the port with a deep face, lined up on the sea more than ten miles away from Ye Village.
There were no more loose fishing boats on the sea, and there was a strong aura of slaughter.
Chang Fei stood beside a rather sturdy Immortal Guard Captain.
"Chief, they're going to attack the port?"
The captain of the fairy guard was nervous, and the palms of his hands holding the torches even broke out in fine sweat.
Chang Fei shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I don't know what to do." If they really want to attack the port, we'll have to fight with all our might. Even if the warship is completely destroyed, they will have to pay the price. Hmph, it's not so easy to destroy all our warships. ”
On the main ship opposite, Yue Xi'er looked solemn: "Ye's Immortal Village has prepared so many copper cannons, could it be that he has long expected such a day?"
Copper artillery consumes a lot of gunpowder, and this is a special powder made during alchemy, which costs a lot of money. If it weren't for the early preparations, the port of Yecun would not have had time to deploy so many copper artillery.
There are more than 20 light warships in Ye's Xiancun, and each light warship has a bronze cannon, plus dozens of fixed copper cannons on the shore, the total number has reached more than 50.
The length of the bronze artillery is hundreds of zhang, and if the sea ships of the Yue Clan Alliance want to shell the Yecun sea ships inside the port, they will inevitably be exposed to the artillery attack range on the other side's shore.
Even if it destroys Ye Village's twenty warships, the Yue Clan Alliance's loss of warships will definitely not be less than Ye Village's.
"Can you find a way to destroy the dozens of copper cannons on the island?"
The burly man in the green robe frowned and asked.
Hearing this, the young man in Chinese costume smiled bitterly: "You want to violate the regulations of the Immortal Alliance and capture Ye's Spirit Island? Not to mention destroying the copper cannons on the shore, when we bombard and destroy the opponent's sea ships, we can't even let any of the Xuantie projectiles fall on Ye's Spirit Island."
Otherwise, the other party can directly sue the Immortal League. Attack the main island of the Immortal City Alliance, and we will be the ones who will suffer when the time comes."
"Ye Cun is defending so tightly, how can this be fought!"
Dahan couldn't help but scold.
This is the most troublesome part of urging the destruction of those Yecun sea ships in the port, and the Yue Clan Alliance does not dare to fire indiscriminately, so as not to fall on the island.
The Ye Clan's Immortal Village could attack them with impunity.
Yue Xi'er watched it for a long time, and then said with a wry smile: "If you want to destroy the Ye family's sea ships, I'm afraid it will be difficult, unless you are willing to pay the price of thirty or forty warships." ”
But this is obviously too costly, this siege of Ye Village only has a total of more than a hundred warships, which is a loss of nearly half.
The big man said unwillingly: "What about attacking at night and sending people to burn the ship?"
The young man in Chinese clothes shook his head suddenly: "How can we get close to their sea boats? When they pass by the water, they will bombard them directly; In the air, Ye Cun Spirit Eagle also has the advantage. As for getting underwater, this is a port, and there is a water barrier under the water, so how can you easily dive in?"
"It seems that the Ye Clan Immortal Village is preparing to survive, is it not that he is counting on the Knowles Alliance to attack our Yue Clan Alliance, and take the opportunity to lift him out of the siege?"
"Impossible, there are other Great Immortal Village Alliances behind the Knowles and dare not move lightly. If the Knowles attack us, the other Great Immortal Village Alliances will definitely attack his back route."
"Ye doesn't want to think about it, he has lost the island and has no income, how can he survive longer than us"
Yue Xi'er thought hard for a long time, temporarily gave up the plan to destroy the warship, and ordered to rest on the spot.
While besieging Ye's Spirit Island, the city lords discussed the division of the island.
When it comes to interests, in order to compete for more benefits for themselves, each city lord can speak well.
Ye's Immortal Village is tight on the outside and empty on the inside.
Don't look at Chang Fei's deployment of many copper artillery pieces in the port, and he has to fight desperately.
However, most of the Spirit Eagle Sky Riders had already followed Ye Mo and set off, leaving Ye Village and flying thousands of miles away. Only Chang Fei and a few immortal guards and warriors were left to guard the port and sea ships.
However, these news were only known to a small number of confidant monks, and the other monks did not know the movements of Ye Mo and the others of the Dao.
The scattered cultivators in Ye Village were even more panicked.
Originally, when the war first broke out, many casual cultivators had the idea of retreating and wanted to leave Yecun, a place of right and wrong.
These casual cultivators are just trying to earn some spirit stones, and they don't plan to work hard for Ye Village, let alone be affected by this battle.
However, the castle lord's office issued a proclamation stating that the remaining wages would be paid after three rì. This made many scattered cultivators stay, and waited for three days to see the situation.
Many people were speculating that Ye Mo had some way to force the Yue Clan Alliance back.
Seeing the Moon Alliance's sea ships retreat slightly, Chang Fei's nervous mood was suddenly relieved.
Although he is not afraid of fighting, it is naturally best if he can not fight.
After he arranged the jǐng ring and told the immortal guards to closely monitor the movements of the sea and the bottom of the sea to prevent the other party from sneaking attack, he raised his eyes to the sky and said secretly in his heart, hoping that the city lord's plan would work as soon as possible. Otherwise, Ye's Immortal Village will be besieged for a month, and it will inevitably decline.
