Yang Decai's nephew was still hoping to inform others that he would be able to get bail or money or something. Seeing that the sinking speed was getting faster and faster, it was almost reaching his knees. Such a speed was not possible.
They can get down in a few minutes. The Cao's Trading Company's ship is also fifty meters away from them. It would be very easy to save them. Unfortunately, what we see is the muzzle of the cannon. It seems that they will continue to fire.
Not to mention aiming at such a close distance, even a blind man can hit it. It's over, it's over, he must be dead this time. I think that after I die, I will have nothing. This Yang Decai's nephew is making a fuss while they are still there.
When I arrived, I ran up to the highest mast. Normally, someone would have seen it, but no one saw it at this moment.
"Brothers from the Cao Family Trading Company, our ship is the main ship. We have the steward of Prince Ning's Mansion on board. He is carrying very important things. If you get these things, they will be worth hundreds of times more than the entire fleet.
Yes, hurry up and save us. I am definitely not lying to you. If you watch us sink, you will regret it for the rest of your life if you know what it is." The guy was silenced as soon as he finished speaking. There were also a few people below.
He was a seventh-level warrior. They killed this guy directly. Yang Decai also said why he didn't kill this guy earlier. Damn it, it was exposed now. He might as well have died like that just now. Now he directly killed two ships.
The warship of the Cao Family Trading Company just stopped and refused to leave. It seemed that they had heard what they just said.
On the warship of the Cao Family Trading Company opposite, the special commissioner sent by Li Cong also heard it just now. The captain knew that this matter was important and came here quickly. There was not much time left for them. The ship opposite had already
It was seriously damaged. If nothing went wrong, there would definitely be nothing left within half an hour. Now they didn't know what the important thing that person was talking about was.
"Colonel, could this be a smoke bomb they released? I saw it clearly just now. There were two seventh-level soldiers on their ship. This was still exposed. Many others were not there.
Exposed. If we rescue these people, we may not be able to control them. Our entire fleet only has one eighth-level warrior and two seventh-level warriors, and the others are low-level warriors and ordinary people.
"But if we don't save them, we will be in trouble if this guy really has those things on him. This is a lot of waste." The captain looked at the sinking merchant ship opposite and said, this matter is also revealed.
It's strange, even though one person died. But to be honest, they have seen a lot of such traps for others to take advantage of. The most important thing when doing things at sea is not to be greedy. What if you are greedy?
Neither can be done well.
"You're right, I'm hesitating now, wait, we can do this." The colonel thought for a while and said, and took a large speaker from the person next to him. Although the sound amplification effect of this thing is average, it is better than using it.
It's my own voice. If I have to use my voice to shout, I guess I won't use my voice anymore and just throw it here.
"Listen to the people on the other side, we don't care whether you have important things on top. Now you have to accept the fate of being sunk. But I will give you a chance. If you are willing to hand over your things, I promise
I will give you a lot of bounty, depending on your intelligence. As for the senior soldiers above you, you can move to other merchant ships, and we will treat you as if you have not participated in this rebellion." The colonel finished his words.
The people at Cao's Trading Company laughed. The colonel's alienation plan was well done. What they are afraid of now are the senior soldiers above. If these senior soldiers are gone, there will be nothing to be afraid of.
Now, they are still not very afraid of struggles between ordinary people.
Yang Decai was immediately stunned when he heard this. People must have their own escape consciousness when they are dying. As soon as the words on the warship over there were finished, two small boats came over, and there were shouts over there,
"As long as you are a senior warrior who wants to leave, we will not stop you. You can take a small boat to any of your merchant ships, but ordinary people cannot go there. You can just jump off. This distance is not suitable for senior warriors.
It doesn't matter. Of course, if ordinary people want to go up, we won't stop you as long as you don't die. But if you use any equipment or other things, our archers will release arrows.
"The guy here said, the last way for Yang Decai to sneak out has been blocked. The senior soldiers all looked at each other, thinking of protecting Yang Decai when he went out to make a big fortune. Now look.
Come on, forget it. Only think about this big fortune if you can save your head. One by one, they just left these people on the boat. Of course, there are a few people who are loyal. They can't stop those people.
But they can let themselves stay with Yang Decai. If Yang Decai hands this over, they will kill Yang Decai without hesitation. At this moment, Yang Decai can't wait for these people who followed him to go down too. It's a pity that
After waiting for the boats to disappear, the boat had sunk more than half, but it still didn't leave. They were trying to control their own pace.
"Haha, I think the people are almost there, we can go up." The captain said with a smile. There are at most a dozen people on top.
"Wait, it's not that simple. I can feel that the murderous intent above is still very strong. Each of our people is very precious, and we can't let them take risks. This is better, just leave the next one.
Boat, let them get on the boat. Our boat will pull them from a distance and ask people to monitor them carefully. If they do anything untoward, cut the rope immediately and let the artillery bombard them. Wait.
They have all left, and our people will go up to see what it is." The colonel's thinking is still relatively mature. Now it seems that the speed of descent is not very fast. It will take some time for it to sink. If these people
If everyone is willing to cooperate, there will be absolutely no problem in getting these things into your hands.
Then someone shouted to them to do this. According to the wishes of the guards, they would have to fight with others. Yang Decai is very afraid of death. If he was not afraid of death, he would not plan everything for himself.
Well, he had already calculated that these people had the prince's interests at heart. When he saw that they were going to fight, he immediately stood up.
"Stop it, everyone. I know that you are all better than me, but I have been following the prince for a long time and am much better than you. If we rush over like this, we will die. There is no way for you to board other people's warships.
On the ocean, we will be beaten into pieces by their serial crossbows. You don't have to look at how powerful their weapons are. What did the prince tell us when he came? He asked us to do our best to bring things back. We will do our best.
Have you tried your best? Not yet. If you don’t try your best, you should try your best. You have risked your life. But the mission given to us by the prince has not been completed, so what is the point of your death? They know this now
That's fine. They also want to get these things, but they are afraid of your troubles and dare not come here. We can simply listen to them and we won't suffer much loss. If we don't listen to them, we will be killed immediately.
Those who landed, listen to their words, we may still return to the mainland. At that time, we were the prince's heroes. We have all remembered it, endured the humiliation and shouldered the heavy burden, and we must complete the things that the prince told us." Yang Decai clearly said this.
He was greedy for life and afraid of death, but he actually said such a long speech. No one else had ever thought about such a thing. What they thought was that Manager Yang had so many things in his mind, and they all thought about it.
It's just that my head is hot and I want to fight the enemy desperately. Look at the people who are in charge, we are far behind.
In this way, Yang Decai and his party were transferred to a small boat. Hundreds of soldiers watched them intently, with artillery and crossbows. It was very difficult for them to make any moves. When they arrived at the small boat
After getting on the boat, the people from the Cao family business boarded the boat. The things on the boat blinded their eyes. Unfortunately, it was of little use. The boat was already filled with water. Except for
Except for the two boxes of platinum that were rescued, everything else went into the sea. Everyone complained to death about the guy who fired the cannon. Damn it, if you weren't so mean, if you weren't so accurate in shooting.
, Now these things are all my own. According to the rules of blocking, this one thousandth is my own. There must be more than a billion silver in this boat, and there are still hundreds of thousands of silver in it.
This has saved me so many years of hard work. Each and every one of them is really not a master, and they don’t know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. Now the war is actually about money. If you have money here, you will definitely get such a good job.
I send it to myself constantly.
The soldiers here are doing a good job, but those soldiers in NW Province are not so lucky. It has been more than two hours since the bombardment started, and more than tens of thousands of artillery shells have been fired.
Everything exploded on King Ning's territory. What makes people wonder is what happened to King Ning's well-trained army. In the past, this army would definitely come out and shoot for the spotlight, but now
It seems that there is no intention to come out at all.
The warships of the Cao Family Trading Company came towards the shore one after another. These were not for the servants, but they were trying to destroy the shore defenses to a certain extent. You have repaired so many colleagues, it can be said that there is no
They are also cooperative. Li Cong's people here are killing fiercely, but Ning Wang's people over there are not in the mood at all. In the past, the battle was only half and half at most, and no one was as powerful as the other. But now
In a short period of time, they didn't even have a chance to raise their head. As expected, these people's army was not half of the infantry. With such heavy weapons, taking over the entire NW province was simply a hot topic.
Prince Ning has already retreated thirty miles. Although he still heard the explosion in front, he is not concerned about this issue now. For him, even if the tens of thousands of years of fiefdom are gone, it is not a big deal.
You can just get it yourself, but if the file is gone, you can't do anything to get it. The main reason is that you don't know how much money you spent to get such a file, and how many people died.
people.
Ning Wanggen had nowhere to listen to the reports of his subordinates. He stood up and walked around, and looked outside to see what was going on. Everyone who knew it knew that Prince Ning was waiting for him.
They were people who came back from the sea, and the person in front of them was someone who could do things.
"Your Majesty, this time the Cao Family Trading Company came ashore and wanted to do more than just rob things. If they rob things, no one will come in a few days. Just do your own thing. But, Your Majesty, outside
What can I say if there are no bodyguard brothers?" The guy thought for a while and said, these brothers are all from Prince Ning's Mansion, and it would be unseemly for them to hang out with Prince Ning's Mansion.
"Of course I know that what they want is my underground territory. I don't care what time it is now. If you want to get benefits without paying anything, go away." Prince Ning looked at the area below happily.
King Ning's army was actually in the rear.
Prince Ning can still laugh at this moment. He really doesn’t know what to say. Maybe it’s because his mind is a little abnormal at the moment. This guy is already a little hysterical. Of course, there are probably
There is no such word. There has been no good news in the past few days. Of course, the most important thing is that His Majesty the Emperor has ended the confrontation with the Cao Family Trading Company. They are already fine. The people from the Cao Family Trading Company are already
The army began to retreat, and the imperial army also began to return. In just half a month, it was supposed to take several years. How could Linghu capture the territory of fifty provinces?
The family members began to admit defeat. Things were completely different from what I had expected at the beginning. What was going on? I really couldn't figure out how these people were doing things now.
"Your Majesty, the news from the inside is that the Linghu family has also participated in the plan of His Majesty the Emperor and the Cao Family Trading Company. They are retreating cooperatively. Otherwise, His Majesty's army would not have been able to capture dozens of people in one day.
For a county or city, such a battle situation has never been encountered before. There are basically no people in the dozens of provinces that His Majesty the Emperor captured. They are playing deception." A spy said.
After coming back, he said that he had just received the news about that place, so he hurriedly came to report to Prince Ning. In fact, such news was basically junk news, with no content. Even if you guessed it, you could guess it.
Yes, such information is of little use at all. As long as you are not a fool, you can understand it.
"Humph, so what if I just deceive you openly? It's not the past. When I became the prince instead of the emperor, I actually lost everything at that time. People have been talking about me all these years.
The improvement in strength is amazing, but of what use is it? After all, I am still a prince. The resources the emperor enjoys are impossible for me to catch up with. I put all my energy on these people along the coast.
We are on the island, but who knows, those places are of little use at all. Those places are places that cannot affect the overall situation. Even if I live well there, what is the use? No one will take advantage of us.
What does it do? We can only continue to hang out there one by one. We have all become arrogant in that place. Now it has woken us up. The current situation is like this. I am just the first
I have already lost this war after fighting the emperor in just one round. All the secret tricks, official files and the like are all bullshit. They are all safe when you don’t use them, but when you need them
It is no longer in your own hands. There is no person or thing more miserable than me in the world. I can see all this clearly." Prince Ning walked slowly and said slowly, although there were many people around him.
They are Prince Ning's confidants, but now these words are treacherous. It is already difficult for them to hear them. If they are allowed to continue talking, it is absolutely impossible. No one has the courage to say this.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be so discouraged. Our overseas territories are very hidden. As long as we go to sea and reach our territory, it belongs to the emperor there and we can make a comeback." A person from Prince Ning's Mansion.
The steward said, this guy can be said to have watched King Ning grow up since he was a child. In his heart, King Ning’s talent is much stronger than that of his brother. It’s a pity that he just doesn’t have good luck and can’t.
The emperor became discouraged now that he saw Prince Ning, so he quickly said something in the hope that Prince Ning would get better and not be like this now. This was too bad.
"Haha, do you think it's still the past? In the past, no matter who we were at sea, they would give us three points of respect. What? Just because we may be losers on land. But we can be at sea.
We are the people who have tough words and fists. We have the largest overseas territory. Our navy makes other navies dare not look at us head on. But now, that era is over, and we are no longer the king of the sea.
, did you see it? It’s them, they are the current overlords of the sea. Their warships are much bigger and faster than ours. And there are those damn weapons called artillery. One ship can hit ten of our ships.
Well, we are no match for them at all. I really lost this time. The defeat was too complete. If Lao Yang can bring me those things, even if I can't become the emperor, at least I can let him.
That person's empire has become chaotic. After the recent incident with the Linghu family, the entire empire is already unstable. It needs my fire. Unfortunately, it is of little use now. That fire root
There's no need for us to order it, and we can't order it. Old Yang and those people must have had trouble at sea, otherwise they should have come back by now." Prince Ning's eyes were still looking at the sea. In fact,
For him, the most severe blow was that the official records were gone. If he didn't have strong political supporters, he would be nothing now, waiting for those people to support him? Forget it.
"Your Majesty, the Cao Family Trading Company's army has landed. There are 50,000 people in total, and the 100,000 cavalry under them are already ready. They will definitely crush them all just waiting for the order." In this room.
Everyone in the crowd fell into silence. A general ran in from outside and said, this is the royal general. The 100,000 cavalrymen under this guy are usually very rigorously trained. As the saying goes, "raise troops for a thousand days and use them for a while."
It would be a very good thing if he could be of any use at this time.
Prince Ning knew very well that even if these people went up, there would be no good results, but after all, he had only heard what they said about the things on the battlefield, and he had not seen those things with his own eyes. Now if
If we can drive them into the sea, the emperor's plan may fail. Although there is no benefit to him, the emperor will definitely adapt his strategy. He is already broken, so how about he just take a ride with these 100,000 people to verify it?
Woolen cloth?
"Okay, this is the king's general. I order you to take your 100,000 cavalry and 30,000 people from the king's personal guard camp. They are all powerful people. Give me the Cao family."
I will drive all the merchants and merchants into the sea. If I can annihilate them all, I will celebrate your victory at night. All the silver beauties will be yours, because you are all the king’s meritorious officials.” Prince Ning seemed to have found something at this moment.
Same, he stood up and said, others were a little confused. Just now, Prince Ning still didn't know what he should do. What is going on now? How can he be so energetic?
"Yes, General, take your orders." This guy knelt down and said, then turned around and strode out. Everyone in the room recognized this guy as a stupid guy who couldn't be more stupid. They knew that this guy was even with the cavalry.
Even if they encounter His Majesty the Emperor's Wu Weijun, they may win, but if they encounter these Cao Family Trading Company's troops who don't follow the routine, they may really not be able to do that, and they may really be killed by others.
Yes, all of this is very possible.
In fact, Prince Ning now misses that old man who is about to die. This is just his reflection. But just because of a casual order he gave, the heads of hundreds of thousands of people in front of him may fall off. The Cao Family Trading Company
The troops immediately formed a neat formation after disembarking. Their crossbows and everything were already installed in place. Although there was not a single complete building on the entire beach, this was not their own territory after all, so they had to be careful.
What's better is that many soldiers lost their lives at this time. They quickly received the news that King Ning's cavalry came over. This is why King Ning can have his own place in the army of the Eastern Empire.
, because this guy's cavalry is very powerful. Whether it is in terms of equipment or the quality of the soldiers, it is not something that ordinary people can compare with. They are very powerful.
If cavalry fights infantry, such battle examples are very good whether in history or in other times. The cavalry will win in a large proportion. But now this result may have to be adapted. Hundreds of thousands of cavalry are majestic.
Standing a few kilometers away from Cao's Trading Company. They have not yet entered the range of the serial crossbow. If they enter, they can kill these guys directly, and there is no need for them to show off. In their view
Come, such a short distance can be reached in just a cup of tea. It is very easy to kill them. The reason why they chose the battlefield here is mainly because they are afraid of the cannons on the warships. Without those cannons, they
Of course there is no need to be afraid, their serial crossbows are powerful. But so what. Those things are no big deal, as long as they are charged quickly.
"Warriors, these are invaders. Behind us are our parents, our brothers, our sisters. His Highness Prince Ning is also looking at us. We are the most powerful army on this continent. As long as our cavalry is
Wherever we go, everyone must stay away. No one can show off in front of us. Warriors, use the blood of the enemy to accumulate our military exploits, and use the enemy's head to prove your own strength. Warriors,
Pull out your steel swords, mount your war horses, let these invaders pay their due price, let the land under our feet gain freedom, restore tranquility, warriors kill..." the general shouted,
He rushed out first. This guy was a fourth-level warrior, but the role of senior warriors among the cavalry was not much demonstrated. At this moment, every soldier was inspired to go up and fight, and naturally they screamed.
.
"Line up, three rows of soldiers will launch the crossbow arrows in your hands when the enemy enters the 3000-meter attack range. Move out of the way immediately after the first batch is fired. The second group enters, the third group prepares, the first group assembles arrows, and the enemy enters.
Within the range of 1500 meters, the shooting stops and the magic arrows are prepared. Your task is to hinder their progress, and then fire three groups again. When the enemy enters the range of 500 meters, the bombing team will move closer to let them know about the grenades.
All the Marines have paid my attention to the feeling of blooming in the center. This is the first time you have completed the mission independently of other escorts. It has made us the pride of the entire trading company, and it has also been the first time we have blocked the transformation in such a step-by-step manner.
Let our newly established Marine Corps stand on the top of the continent." War mobilization is also going on here. Of course, these people this time are the latest Marine Corps formed by Li Cong, and it is their first time.
Joining the magic arrow team is the archer who shoots magic arrows. They are all composed of level six archers. Such a team is definitely extremely expensive. Of course, the magic arrows Li Cong uses for them are also the lowest.
level, otherwise, a team of 1,500 people would die in one launch. My mental strength is very strong, but it is still insufficient to deal with so many people. I don’t have the ability.
It's just such a small team, but there are hundreds of thousands or millions of people behind it. How can I cope with it? By then, even if I am exhausted, I will be like that.
"The whole army is ready. The enemy has entered 4000 meters. Level one alert. All are under the command of the command flag. Once the command flag falls, the entire army will fire thousands of arrows to kill the enemy." The general standing on the high ground roared loudly, but
Most of the people didn't look at him. Most of them were observing the troops in front of them. These troops were their targets. Although they were all cannon fodder of King Ning, for this newly established army,
He said, today is like an exam for them. They must have a better answer sheet, otherwise there will be no need to exist in the future. Their salary is only 2 taels of silver per month, which is comparable to
There are a lot more other guards, and the food is much better. In order to get good treatment for myself, I have to do a good job.
It can be said that the soldiers on both sides have used their full strength. Although the total number of troops on Cao's Trading Company's side is only more than 10,000, there is nothing to be afraid of on their faces. Just among these cavalry
When they entered the 3,000-meter attack range, the 2,500 soldiers in the first group fired the serial crossbows in their hands. The hit rate at this distance was not high, only 50% at most.
So they didn't move at all after firing the first one, and fired the next two in succession, and then changed to another target, until all ten bows and arrows in their serial crossbows were fired, and then they quickly ran to both sides to give way.
In the best shooting position, I went to the back to replenish ammunition. There was a second group waiting behind me.
These cavalrymen of King Ning are all like a pack of wolves, and the horses are all the best. Looking at their speed, you can tell that they are very powerful, but when these horses enter 3000 meters, each of them seems to feel
There was no danger. At least 30% of the horses had to lift their front legs. They all felt scared. These horses all felt scared. When they jumped up, there was something in front of them.
With two more bows and arrows, these horses immediately fell to the ground. The expressions on the faces of the knights on them immediately changed. Of course they knew how terrible it was for the cavalry to fall when they charged. This would make
He turned into flesh. Death is not terrible. What is terrible is that this way of death is simply the most painful way to die. It can really kill you every time. But there is nothing they can do. They get up
Not coming.
Although the soldiers behind know that the people in front are their brothers and comrades-in-arms, they cannot slow down now and can only press on them. If they stop, the cavalry behind them will also hit them.
Overwhelming, then the entire cavalry team will be in chaos. This is what the cavalry are most afraid of. They all have to run at their own speed. There is still up to 3000 meters in front of them. They must pass through these 3000 meters quickly.
Meters away, as long as they rush into their formation, these infantrymen have no other choice, and it will be easy to kill them.
Hu Er is one of these unlucky knights. He is very busy. If he fights immediately, he can kill ten infantrymen or let two cavalrymen die under his sword. But to be honest, at this moment, he
He didn't have a chance to do his job at all. He had already been shot in the shoulder. There was a message circulating among the cavalry, that is, as long as you are injured when charging, it doesn't matter how injured you are after falling off the horse.
It was so light that you couldn't be alive at that time. Hu Er just hurt his arm. It would have been fine if he had just pulled out the bow and arrow in normal times, but now he can only turn into a meat pie. In this guy's case,
When he went down, he looked around and saw that there were no more than one-third of his brothers. He had already reached the position of 00 meters. The distance of 1000 meters actually reduced their number by two-thirds. It was really difficult.
It's terrible that their opponent is such an army. This is not a war at all, it is simply a one-sided massacre.
Unlike the dead Hu Er, the generals from the Cao Family Trading Company over there are watching the battle here from a high place. Although the generals here have no expression on their faces, as long as they look carefully
If you say, you can see that the corners of their mouths are all pointing upwards. These guys are really good. They usually suffer a lot in training, but now they are on the battlefield and there is no shame.
, they didn’t feel very comfortable with the strange name of the Marine Corps at first. Why wasn’t it called something like the Endeavor Army? Something like that sounded so exciting, but now I won’t say it one by one.
That's it, it's already like this anyway. In fact, as time goes by, this title is still good.
When they all reached 1500 meters, the magic arrows indeed played a big role. The combined attack of the archers made the ice magic arrows play a big role, which directly caused a piece of land to appear.
The ice wall was nearly 30 centimeters high. Many of the horses fell down. This gave them nearly 30 seconds. Don't underestimate these 30 seconds. It was these 30 seconds that cost them more lives.
There are tens of thousands of people, accounting for more than 30%. It seems that this tactic is still very good. Although the cost is high, the harvest received is also very good.
Of course, the most outstanding thing is not theirs, the most outstanding one is naturally the bombing team. When the grenade was thrown out by them, the huge explosion immediately frightened all the horses, and the rest was very
A small part was missing, and it was even smaller now. A large number of soldiers were killed at this stage. In the end, only less than a few thousand people were able to rush to the front of the formation. They were killed directly by the serial crossbows. Ten of them were killed.
The tens of thousands of cavalry only caused less than 30 casualties on the other side. The cost was also very huge. The final result of this battle was that no one under King Ning had the intention to resist, and even the heart was gone.
Without it, how can we resist others? The most elite troops under King Ning were killed by others in such a short time. A large number of troops. This is not a small number of troops. These people are all King Ning.
The most powerful army, but in the current situation, they all became cannon fodder that was sacrificed by King Ning with just one word.
This battle also made the generals of the Eastern Empire see the gap between them and the Cao Family Trading Company's army. In the past, they said that as long as the Cao Family Trading Company's army came out, they would definitely not be their opponents. The Cao Family Trading Company's former
The reason why they were able to win at that time was all about defense. The three-dimensional defense system they built, if we talk about the real thing, is actually nothing. Each of these people is just a coward, but this time with
It was different last time. The Cao Family Trading Company's army really fought against King Ning's army in the wild, but without any defensive measures. This was just a field battle. It can be said that King Ning's army still had many advantages.
, for example, they are cavalry, while the Cao Family Trading Company is all infantry, the gap is really big.
The emperor of the Eastern Empire also saw the shortcomings of his own army. The final result of this war soon reached the capital. He also ordered the people in the military department to quickly develop a new strategy to solve the problem. Of course,
The most important thing is to kill all Prince Ning's hands in the capital. Otherwise, he will be the one who suffers at that time. Now Prince Ning has failed. Such a person can do anything.
When he came out, he thought of another piece of news that Li Cong told him, that is, Prince Ning himself might be a black magic pharmacist. As long as anyone with a serious mind on the mainland would be upset when they hear this title.
Comfortable, His Majesty the Emperor is like this too. Why can't these black magic pharmacists be killed cleanly? But instead of forcing King Ning to show his weakness, His Majesty the Emperor still has to do his thing. The first thing is to announce that King Ning will resist the invading command of the Cao Family Trading Company.
The mistake caused huge casualties, exposed the entire southeastern part of the empire to the guns of Cao's trading firm, lowered Prince Ning's title to that of a county king, and then asked him to come to the capital to report on his work and elaborate on it in detail.
Let’s talk about what this war is about. (To be continued...)
