"Boom boom boom!"
The shockwaves from the Magic Crystal Cannons shot out hundreds of meters in front and behind them. Flames soared into the sky, and the battleships of the Kingdom of Shang were blasted into smithereens. Many of them sank, and most of them were injured by the shockwaves from the Magic Crystal Cannons. They started to flood, and the marines were crying for their parents.
Jin Chong looked to the front and back with a cold gaze. "Marshal, we are being bombarded from the front and back. This …"
"What are you afraid of? We are the flagship!"
Filet sneered. "I don't believe their cannons are that accurate! Continue to advance at full speed. Aim and use our cannons to retaliate! "
"Yes!"
The counterattack of the Shang Army was very powerful. After all, they had the advantage in numbers. However, the effect of the cannons was not obvious. Other than a few advanced Magic Crystal Cannons, most of the heavy cannons had fallen into the water. They were hundreds of meters away from the enemy's fleet.
"Boom boom boom!"
Thirty seconds later, another two volleys of cannons came from the front and back. This time, it was even closer, only fifty meters away!
Jin Chong's face turned pale. "Marshal, their cannons seem to be trying to adjust the distance … This won't do. We will definitely be hit. Please change direction immediately!"
"What are you afraid of? Continue to attack! "
"Yes …"
On the flagship, a group of commanders and Captaincy level generals were stunned. The enemy was much more powerful than they had imagined. At this moment, they saw the flag of the enemy. There was a big "Xu" character. It was one of the commanders of the Qin Empire, Xu Jiantao. It was not the legendary Lin Muyu. Even a Xu Jiantao was so powerful. What would happen if Lin Muyu came personally?
"Boom boom boom!"
In the distance, the third round of bombardment came from the Longdan Army Camp.
Four fiery red Magic Crystal Cannons flew through the air and pounced towards the flagship.
"Oh no!"
Jin Chong sensed that something was wrong. He quickly activated his Devil Body Xuan Qi. Instantly, the Devil Flame danced around him. "Marshal, we are going to be hit!"
Filet gritted his teeth and entered his Devil God Transformation state.
Boom!
Flames soared into the sky. None of the four cannonballs missed. In an instant, Filet's iron-clad warship was torn into pieces. The fragments of the warship and the corpses of the soldiers flew into the air. The flames soared hundreds of meters into the air, and waves of air swept out in all directions.
In an instant, everyone on the Kingdom of Shang's warship was stunned.
The two armies had only engaged in battle for less than three minutes, and their flagship was already sunk!
Amidst the flames, two people stood on the surface of the sea. They were Filet and Jin Chong. It was easy for the Magic Crystal Cannons to kill, but it was far from enough to kill gods. Even so, the two demon gods, Filet and Jin Chong, were still covered in soot.
"Marshal is fine … Marshal is fine …"
Everyone cheered and jumped for joy. They laughed heartily and celebrated with each other as if they had just won a great battle.
Filet stood on the surface of the sea, with the waves swirling around him, as if he was furious. He growled, "Attack! Flatten these bastards of the Qin Army! Attack at full speed! Send out the Dragon Riders and crush them! "
The war drums thundered, and the Shang Army fell into a state of frenzy.
Although Filet was fine, the flagship was gone. They could only use other warships to replace the flagship. Moreover, the mortal generals and strategists on the flagship were all gone. Seven commanders and twenty-eight Captaincy had sunk into the sea after the four cannons. This was a great humiliation, the greatest humiliation in the history of the Shang Empire!
… …
"Hit!"
"Instant sinking!"
"The enemy's flagship has sunk!"
The observer was so excited that his voice began to tremble.
"Filet is not dead. How could a demon god die so easily …" Nangong Lie sneered.
Xu Jiantao nodded, "Yeah, I knew he wouldn't die! Pass down the order, continue to maintain the firing position. Abandon Greenstone Island and retreat to Changyuan Island. Maintain the distance from the enemy. Try to hit them while they can't reach us. Pay attention to the reserve of cannons. At least half of them should be left before we make contact with the main fleet. "
"Yes, Commander!"
At this moment, a flame exploded on the side. The warship next to Xu Jiantao's flagship exploded in the middle. It had been hit by a stray cannon from the enemy. The cannons in the hold of the ship detonated, and the entire ship almost instantly disintegrated from the surface of the sea. No one survived.
"Buzz buzz buzz …"
The shockwave from the magic crystal cannons swept over, forcing everyone to raise their arms to cover themselves. The flagship was also pushed dozens of meters away. Layers of waves crashed on the surface of the sea, and the ship completely disappeared. Only fragments and corpses were left on the surface of the sea.
"…"
Xu Jiantao felt a chill from the bottom of his heart, but this was war, and war had always been this cruel. He held onto the railing of the ship and said indifferently, "Pass the signal signal. Everyone, aim at the target within range and fire at will. Maintain a distance of 800 meters."
"Yes!"
The warship quickly retreated, only using the heavy cannons at the stern to tangle with the enemy.
Meanwhile, Filet's fleet refused to give up. Even though the enemy's casualties had reached more than 1: 5, they still chased after them with a murderous aura. For Filet, it didn't matter how many people died. What was important was that he had to eliminate the enemy in front of him. Otherwise, when he returned to the Celestial Pole Continent, he would no longer have a place to stand. Even his identity as a demon god wouldn't be able to hide the fact that he had suffered a crushing defeat.
At this moment, a dark mass suddenly approached from the distant horizon.
"Commander, it's the Dragon Riders!" the observer shouted.
"Damn it!"
Xu Jiantao gritted his teeth. "All secondary cannons, stop firing. Adjust the angle and aim at the sky. Fire as soon as the Dragon Riders arrive. I want to see if the current Dragon Riders are still invincible."
"Yes!"
In the sky, the Dragon Riders were getting closer and closer. Giant dragons roared and pounced.
"Fire!"
On the surface of the sea, a flag signal was sent. Instantly, tens of thousands of cannons roared in unison. Countless streaks of fiery light shot into the sky, interweaving into a net of fire. The sounds of clashing and clashing rang out continuously, accompanied by the cries of the Dragon Riders. In the blink of an eye, Dragon Riders covered in flames fell from the sky into the sea like giant bats on fire.
These were all Dragon Riders who hadn't comprehended the Dragon Imperial Spiral.
However, even more Dragon Riders swooped down, madly spitting out dragon's breath. They swept through Xu Jiantao's fleet. Immediately, miserable cries rang out. Warships were set ablaze one after another. This was the true test.
"Don't panic. Put out the fire!"
Xu Jiantao shouted. "Raise your shields and defend against the enemy. Heavy crossbowmen, use the Dragon Hunting Crossbow!"
The Dragon Hunting Crossbows were pushed out from the sides of the warships. Soon, large nets shot into the sky. Any giant dragon caught in the net would immediately struggle and fall into the sea.
Arrows rained down from the ships, continuously hitting the giant dragons' bodies. However, even more of the empire's soldiers died under the baptism of dragon flames.
In the surroundings, the warships began to catch fire.
Xu Jiantao's shoulders trembled slightly. Hatred surged out from his eyes. At least a hundred warships were on fire. After this battle, he didn't know how many of his fifty thousand brothers in the Longdan Army Camp would survive.
"Evil Dragon Riders!" Fire Fist Zheng Jian suddenly leaped up from the flagship and threw a punch from afar. Immediately, the energy of the Fire Fist landed on the abdomen of a giant dragon. The giant dragon let out a cry and fell into the water.
Nangong Lie, Wu Tong, the Beamon King, and the others also left the flagship and killed the Dragon Riders everywhere.
Now, they could only rely on these Sacred-level experts to resist the Dragon Riders.
Fortunately, the Dragon Riders weren't willing to stay after burning a large number of warships. They soared into the sky. After all, the Dragon Hunting Crossbows and Magic Crystal Cannons of the Qin Army weren't just for show. The Dragon Riders had already suffered significant losses.
…
The pursuit went on for 30 miles. The number of warships under Xu Jiantao's command was decreasing. Nearly a third of them had been lost.
He unfolded the map, sweat dripping from his face. As if he was begging for mercy, he murmured, "We've arrived. It's these coordinates … Come out, come out quickly … My Lord, come quickly …"
The deputy commanders at the side were silent.
At this point, victory was no longer a question.
…
Night fell. A faint murderous intent permeated the Strait of Changyuan Island.
On the second flagship, Jin Chong frowned and said, "Marshal, we've gone deeper and deeper. Now we've lost contact with the Second Division. Should we … retreat? This despicable Xu Jiantao just keeps retreating. He has no intention of fighting to the death with us. "
"Why? Is Lord Jin Chong afraid?" Filet sneered.
"Yes, this subordinate is indeed afraid. The Qin people are too cunning. This place … makes this subordinate feel that it is a trap that was dug in advance."
"Hmph, a trap at sea? Looks like Lord Jin Chong is scared out of his wits! "
"I didn't …"
"Then continue the battle!"
"Yes …"
At this moment, a soldier on the observation deck shouted, "Marshal, look to our east. There seems to be traces of the enemy!"
"What?!"
Everyone looked over and saw a bright light in the eastern sea region. It was the light of the signal lights on the warships. Soon, more and more lights appeared, forming a dense patch!
"Oh no, it really is an ambush!"
At this moment, no matter how conceited Filet was, his voice was trembling. "Retreat! Spread the sails and retreat at full speed!"
"We can't do that, Marshal. The northwest will send us into their embrace!"
"Damn it, retreat immediately!"
"Yes!"
But the order was too late. Cannons roared in the darkness, and a dense patch of magic crystal shells fell from the sky. It looked like … a beautiful fireworks display.
Boom, boom, boom …
In an instant, countless warships were hit, and light shot into the sky.
In the consecutive artillery bombardment, the Kingdom of Shang's fleet had used up all their cannons, but the enemy was still fully loaded!
…
The light illuminated the position of the Shang army's fleet, while the enemy was only floating on the dark sea.
Lin Muyu, who was wearing a white cloak of the royal forest, suddenly pulled out the Xuan Yuan Sword, pointed it at the distance, and ordered loudly, "Continue the bombardment, attack when they are close, don't let a single ship escape!"
The sound of drums soared into the sky, mixing with the sound of cannons.
Flames soared into the sky, and the enemy was in the light while they were in the dark. All the soldiers of the Shang army fell into despair and panic. They knew that the Qin people hated the massacre of the Celestial Pole Continent. The hatred between the two continents couldn't be resolved, and this battle would be their last.
