Chapter 565 Have a Pleasant Journey

Night falls.

Xiang Xiu Ming sent Shui Yu to take action.

There are not many water fish, just over a hundred people.

First, the selection conditions for aquatic fish are very strict. They need to hold their breath underwater for a cup of tea, which is about ten minutes.

Second, the number of fish in the water should not be too large, as they can easily be exposed.

More than a hundred water fish took advantage of the darkness and headed towards Ning Chen's warship.

Of course, there is no better way to deal with water fish than to go into the water and kill them.

Ning Chen stood on the bow of the boat, facing the cold wind and looking at the dark water. He turned to Sun Gaohan and said, "I'll leave these fish to you."

Although his water quality is not as good as that of aquatic fish, it is not bad, but Ning Chen is unwilling to go into the water. The water is too cold today.

Sun Gaohan leaned over and said, "General Ning, don't worry, leave it to the last general!"

"Be careful!"

Sun Gaohan ordered more than 300 soldiers who were good at water, dived into the water, and waited for the fish to take the bait.

When Xiang Xiuming's more than 100 water fish were approaching Ning Chen's army, they quietly surfaced to take a breather under the cover of night, then dived into the water again and went straight to the bottom of the boat.

Sun Gaohan and his people have been waiting for them.

Ning Chen looked at the water with a telescope. He couldn't see clearly what was going on under the water, but he could see large amounts of blood appearing on the water from time to time, and then bodies surfaced.

There are Xiang Xiu Ming's water fish and Ning Chen's soldiers.

The aquatic fish are very good at water. Even if they are three against one, there will still be casualties.

A full quarter of an hour later, Ning Chen saw Sun Gaohan emerging from the water and waving towards him.

"Quick, lower the rope ladder!"

Ning Chen ordered.

Sun Gaohan led his people back.

Everyone's face was pale from the cold, and their whole bodies were shaking.

More than 300 people went down, but less than 200 came back.

In other words, more than a hundred people were folded underwater.

Three against one, more than a hundred people were lost, which shows that these water fish are extremely difficult to deal with.

Ning Chen asked: "Is everything solved?"

Sun Gaohan shook his head, "My subordinates are incompetent and some of them escaped. Please punish me, General Ning!"

Ning Chen waved his hand, "Underwater combat is not what we are good at, so it's okay... Go back and change clothes quickly, so as not to catch the cold."

Later, Ning Chen ordered the soldiers on the ship to act out, shouting that the ship was leaking and about to sink.

The soldiers are very capable.

He shouted in panic that the boat was leaking and was about to sink.

The chaotic and noisy sound spread far away.

Xiang Xiuming heard it.

Huang Shao's face was full of excitement, "General, the water fish has been succeeded!"

Xiang Xiuming was infected with wind and cold, but his blood was boiling at this time.

"Give me the order to attack!"

More than two hundred warships were heading towards Ning Chen.

Ning Chen used the telescope to observe the other party's movements, and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

As the big ship approached, Xiang Xiuming asked people to prepare tung oil cylinders and throw them as soon as they entered the shooting range.

He didn't notice at all that heads popped up from the water, waving and shouting at him desperately.

These people are water fish that have escaped.

They wanted to tell Xiang Xiu Ming that they had not succeeded.

But the water surface was dark, and Ning Chen could barely see clearly with a telescope. Xiang Xiuming didn't see them at all. In addition, the sails and the battle flag on the bow were blown by the cold wind, and their voices were completely drowned out.

The big ship rolled over.

Some water fish were unable to dodge and were killed directly.

The other water fish were so frightened that they quickly dived into the water.

"General Ning, the ship is sinking."

"General Ning, help me!"

"Everyone, run away, the boat is leaking and is about to sink!"

Xiang Xiuming smiled as he heard the panic and noise on the other side.

"Prepare to project!"

Xiang Xiuming gave the order and was about to enter the shooting range.

This time, he wanted Ning Chen, the Great Mysterious God of War, and his 30,000 soldiers to be completely buried in the belly of the fish.

Ning Chen looked at the approaching warship with his binoculars and waved to Xiang Xiuming, "Have a good trip!"

It's a pity that Xiang Xiuming can't see it.

Ning Chen said in a deep voice: "Give me the order to fire!"

Boom boom boom! ! !

Thunderous sounds resounded throughout the world, fires dazzled in the darkness, and dense shells flew towards the enemy warships with a sound of breaking through the air.

Xiang Xiu Ming was about to give the order to project the tung oil cylinder, but the thunderous sound shocked his eardrums and made his brain buzz.

Before he could wake up, the advance warship suffered a devastating blow.

The most terrifying thing is that the advance warship is filled with tung oil.

Tank after tank of tung oil overturned and poured out.

The torches in the soldiers' hands were knocked to the ground, or the sparks caused by the friction of the cannonballs directly ignited the tung oil.

In an instant, the entire warship turned into a sea of ​​fire.

The burning mast fell, setting fire to the surrounding warships.

For a moment, shrill screams echoed through the sky.

Boom boom boom! ! !

The noise this time was not artillery, but the tung oil tank exploded and the warship was shattered into pieces.

The terrifying wave of fire devoured everything.

The fire swept away thick smoke and turned the sky red.

The entire water surface is like purgatory on earth.

Xiang Xiuming's army was moving against the current, and the tung oil leaked and spread along the water, setting fire to the warships behind it.

Ning Chen ordered to stop advancing.

If they go further, their warships will suffer.

The fire burned until midnight before it was extinguished.

The entire water was littered with warship fragments and densely packed corpses.

I don’t know how many warships were burned in this battle? It is not yet clear how many people died.

Until dawn.

The water calmed down and nothing could be seen.

Warship wreckage and all the bodies were washed downstream and merged into the sea.

Ning Chen then ordered the army to move forward.

......

Xiang Xiuming's army was not completely wiped out.

The warships behind escaped.

After counting, more than 150 warships were burned last night, and the death toll exceeded 20,000... Most of them were not burned to death, but drowned.

The big ships retreated, and they didn't care about the people who fell into the water.

The surface of the water was full of burning tung oil.

Most people drowned in the water.

These people were very good at swimming, but they ended up drowning.

Xiang Xiuming was still alive. He was lucky and survived... But he was severely burned and had a cold, so he was in a coma.

Huang Shao was still alive. The situation was not right, so he escaped first.

But now, more than 100 warships accommodated more than 25,000 people.

The warships moved forward with heavy loads, and morale was low.

Xiang Xiuming didn't wake up until the afternoon. He had large areas of burns on his body, which were wrapped like dumplings. The gauze was almost stained red with blood.

"General, are you awake?"

Huang Shao walked to the bed, his face full of concern.

Xiang Xiuming stared at him fiercely, "You dare to escape in the face of battle, do you know your crime?"

Huang Shao lowered his head, a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes, "I know my crime!"

"I'll deal with you when I get back! How is the situation now?"

Huang Shao introduced the situation again!

Xiang Xiuming's eyes were bloodshot, his tiger eyes were filled with tears, and he said hoarsely: "Huang Shao, I regret it!"

"More than 20,000 people, more than 20,000 people... We are all the people of Daxuan, and this shouldn't happen. We should be comrades-in-arms and face the outside world together."

"It's all my fault. I underestimated Ning Chen... Daxuan God of War, his reputation is well-deserved."

Huang Shao's voice was sharp, his face full of dissatisfaction, "He just relied on the power of artillery... If it's a close combat, they are definitely not our opponents in a water battle."
