Chapter 458 Death with the Ship
In the sky, countless masters fell silent at this moment.
At the beginning of the battle, they were still very excited, pointing and pointing, and there was a lot of criticism in it--for cultivators, the speed of the battleship is too slow, like a snail; Line up!
Generally speaking, large-scale wars between cultivators require 'battle formations'.
And when the two fleets first appeared, only the Xuanzhen Sect's rear, more than fifty warships, had set up a trap—and this formation was barely in shape. This is also impossible, and it is difficult to maintain stability at sea.
As for the main force of the Xuanzhen Sect's fleet and the Xiaoyao faction's fleet, there was no formation structure at all, and they just rushed forward.
What's more, not only is there no formation structure, but the battleships of the Xuanzhen Sect are separated by two miles/one kilometer! One kilometer, in a fierce battle, this distance is simply too late to support nearby comrades.
However, when the battle started, everyone slowly opened their mouths.
After the Xiaoyao faction put on a posture of sealing the sky and locking the earth, all the onlookers were still excited; but after only a while, everyone was disappointed-I'm going, it turned out to be a cover-up.
But after that, the fierce battle started, but everyone gradually shut their mouths. The strength of the steel battleship also gave them a clear understanding. Maybe the speed of the Iron Battleship is a bit slow, but its power is beyond imagination. And it seems that the battle of steel warships really does not require battle arrays!
Seeing the violent explosion, watching the long-distance and ferocious attack ten kilometers away, everyone gradually realized that it seemed to be different from what they thought!
They gradually began to observe the attack power of the steel battleship; the crazy artillery output and violent explosions gradually made many people realize that the steel battleship seems to have half the combat power of the transformation stage, but the speed is slower That's all.
Feeling the brutality of the naval battle and seeing the shock caused by several suicide bombings, the masters who watched the battle gradually changed from being excited at the beginning to observing, studying, and contemplating carefully.
Steel battleships are the most direct manifestation of industrial power, and can also be said to be the direct manifestation of black iron and steel industry!
The battle came to an end in a blink of an eye, there were still 17 steel warships left on Xuanzhen Sect's side, and five of them surrounded the Hailong, ready to capture the opponent.
And the remaining 12 steel warships have completely dispersed, killing at sea...!
Cannonballs were fired continuously, and there were even air-burst bombs; of course, there were also a large number of Nascent Soul stage masters on the Xuanzhen Sect side, and they formed a battle formation and began to clean up the opponent's remnants and defeated generals.
At present, there seems to be no humanitarian care for prisoners in this world. After everyone wins, the first thought is to clean up the opponent's remnants and defeated generals; as long as the opponent's remnants and defeated generals are completely cleaned up, the opponent's military strength will inevitably decline slowly!
But what everyone is most concerned about right now is the Hailong, which has been beaten to a half.
At this time, on the Hailong, Ma Jianliang looked at the people around him with a calm expression: "Leave quickly, if you wait for the other party to surround you, you won't be able to leave even if you want to!"
At this time, Nascent Soul stage masters had already appeared on the five surrounding battleships. But because he was afraid of the ballista on the battleship, he didn't get close. However, it is conceivable that once they are determined to be safe, they will inevitably rush forward. At that time, everyone on the Hailong will have to agree with others if they want to die.
Of course everyone wanted to run, and they also wanted to drag Ma Jianliang to run.
Ma Jianliang shook his head slowly, but urged everyone to leave quickly. The surrounding soldiers were in a hurry, but Ma Jianliang sighed, and asked the surrounding Yuan Yingqi to wait and take all his own soldiers away.
Everyone slowly fell silent, and even a fool could see Ma Jianliang's decision at this time. However, seeing the battleship of Xuanzhen Sect approaching, everyone had to retreat quickly.
Everyone left the Hailong, and Yuan Yingqi from Xuanzhen Sect, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly surrounded them.
Ma Jianliang personally controlled a small naval gun to fire air-burst bombs to see everyone off.
"General!" Several soldiers burst into tears at this moment. But the opportunity is imminent, and these Nascent Soul Stages who escaped for their lives left quickly. But even so, a lot of price was paid-the Xuanzhen Sect also had empty bombs and ballistas, and less than half of them escaped in the end.
At this time, Ma Jianliang was standing on the bow of the Hailong, quietly looking at the five approaching warships, with a faint smile on his face.
When Lu Xuanyu saw this, his heart suddenly flashed with emotion. He stood on the bow of the ship and shouted: "General Ma, come to Xuanzhen Sect. Your ability is enough to control a real fleet. And we have a plan for a detachment recently."
Ma Jianliang laughed, "You destroy my country, kill my soldiers, and think that I will bow to you? Impossible! The kingdom of Langya only has generals who died in battle, and no generals who surrendered!
Moreover, I am the commander of this fleet, and I am the captain of the Sea Dragon!
We once said that the sword is with the people, and the sword is dead and the people are dead!
Today I want to say that when the ship is there, the man is there, and the ship is dead and the man is dead! "
As soon as the voice fell, the stern part of the Hailong battleship exploded. In the flames soaring into the sky, the stern of the ship was directly shattered.
Then there was another explosion, one after another, and the explosion spread from the stern to the bow. Under this violent explosion, the steel was torn apart, debris flew all over the sky, and the sea water where the battleship was located was directly sunken.
By the time the bow of the ship exploded, the bow of the battleship was almost suspended in mid-air. The seawater in all directions has been sunken for 100 meters, forming a deep pit with a range of more than 500 meters. Countless seawater rushes up to the sky, and the five steel warships are constantly bumping around the surrounding area hit by raging waves.
As for Ma Jianliang, he was torn to pieces in the explosion.
The explosion was over, but the gunpowder smoke hung over the broken sea like a dark cloud; the waves were rolling, and only a little sawdust, rags, etc. floated on the sea.
Lu Xuanyu's eyes were a little dim, and his expression was a little complicated.
After a victory, why do I feel empty?
However, war is inevitable after all! In the past, the Xiaoyao Sect kept squeezing the living space of Xuanzhen Sect, and even once blocked Xuanzhen Sect's external sea communication channel; now Xuanzhen Sect's counterattack is inevitable.
And in the sky, countless people watching the battle fell silent. Ma Jianliang's final choice made them respect him. Even in the stage of transformation, he had to bow his head slightly at this time. It was a farewell to such a warrior.
But at the same time, everyone felt a little sorry. The failure of this battle is not due to Ma Jianliang, but to the Xiaoyao faction... There are no battleships available!
After the battle, everyone was surprised to find that under the attack of the steel battleship, the skinned warship was just a toy, and it was basically over after being hit with three or four shells.
In contrast, the steel warships are in a terrible mess. Except for a few that were focused on and were particularly unlucky, most of the steel battleships were hit with three or five shells. Ordinary shells that cannot break through.
This crazy war is over. Xuanzhen Sect, the head of the Law Enforcing Hall, Hong Zhenzi came forward and announced that "the mistakes of the Xiaoyao Sect have been corrected", and said with awe-inspiring righteousness that "the Holy Land should have the spirit of a Holy Land, and things should be done openly and aboveboard."
Yes, aboveboard. Look, we have killed your fleet openly!
Daoist Guanyun of the Xiaoyao faction came forward, and left with a few harsh words, and after a while, he left with the defeated soldiers who had fled back to the rear. Xuanzhen Sect did not pursue either. After all, everyone still maintained a bit of restraint, after all, there is still a Xianyin sect in the east eyeing it.
But the Xuanzhen Sect's fleet was divided into two at this time, and the Weihai Fleet directly under the Xuanzhen Sect began to try to salvage the sunken ship. This ship is all made of steel, and that's all money.
However, the other Thunder Fleet belonging to the Land of Canglan, that is, three Iron Duke-class warships, turned around and headed towards the Land of Langya. They are going to destroy the coastal ports of Langya Kingdom!
At this time, the fleet of Langya Kingdom was completely wiped out, this is the best chance to destroy the harbor of Langya Kingdom. Also, the seaports of the Southern Tang Kingdom cannot be spared.
The war at sea is over, but it is only one part of the whole war. Then there is the battle on the ground. The country of Shaoze and the country of Canglan have a belief that they will never return Loulan if they don't break it—the country of Langya and the country of Southern Tang must be eliminated!
