Chapter 24: After all, simplicity wins over scheming
On a light ink ocean.
One side is from east to west, the other side is from west to east, and there are two very large fleets on each side heading towards each other until they meet.
As far as the fleet coming from the east is concerned, the twenty-four fighting ships at the front, which look like crane wings, are obviously about 30% larger than the twelve fighting ships in Yuque the day before. Iron and wooden guardrails were installed, and there were eighteen stone cannons on each side. The total number of stone cannons on a single ship actually reached thirty-six.
There are sixty-four large ships in the rear, about half the size of the battleships in front. Each ship is equipped with only four stone cannons. It seems to be much smaller in size, but the barrels of the stone cannons are obviously longer, and the range is obviously much greater. improve.
The battleships in the front focus on intensive firepower and defense; the firepower in the rear is output from a long distance, which is the same as when infantry is fighting, the shields are in front and the bows and arrows are behind.
At the very front of the first ship, there was a silver-haired man with half of his clothes open, his hands behind his back, looking at Zixiong.
The fleet approaching from the opposite side consisted of sixteen fighting ships and forty flat ships, but it was slightly smaller.
From a distance, he saw a short middle-aged man wearing a purple cloak and transparent gel gloves standing on the first ship. This man looked at him from a distance, and then he took out a hat with a missing corner from his side. Wear it crookedly on your head.
South of the Zhulu Sea, the two largest forces on Qianluo Star Island are going to war today!
"Boom!"
The stone cannons on both sides were launched almost at the same time!
Countless meteors, from east to west, from west to east, light up the sky.
Generally speaking, the form of battle is slightly different between fleet landing operations and naval battles between ships.
That day, the Yuque tribe made a surprise attack, firing hundreds of cannons. The elixirs fired were solid bullets, stone fire pellets, and poison bombs in roughly equal numbers. However, in fleet operations, they mainly used stone fire pellets and mixed with special kerosene. Because it is by no means an easy task to sink a large battleship simply by relying on physical damage; and the cabins on the large ship are divided into countless partitions, and the effect of the poisonous smoke is unclear. The only way is to make it catch fire everywhere and be overwhelmed. It can weaken the opponent's combat effectiveness to the greatest extent.
From time to time, projectiles landed beside him, but the silver-haired man ignored them and kept his eyes fixed on the leader on the opposite side - a short middle-aged man wearing rubber gloves.
The whistling sound of projectiles, the sound of falling into the water, the sound of mid-ship, shouts, wailings... mixed with the roar of the waves, constitute a series of notes that are wedged into the deepest parts of people's hearts. Even if they survive, this sound will be heard in the near future. It appears repeatedly in everyone's nightmares.
After shouting at each other for more than a hundred times, the silver-haired man suddenly frowned, and there was a cold light in his eyes!
Because the person wearing a hat on the opposite side moved!
As soon as this person put his hands together, the transparent gloves emitted a bright silver light, and immediately his body and spirit body suddenly expanded!
Unlike Yuchan, Xie Liang, Beiyue and others, one arm - at most half an arm - is in a spiritual state, but this person's entire waist is shining brightly, forming a virtual image, and the scale is also larger. It is much larger, almost six or seven feet tall.
Only those in the Ding Yuan realm can achieve this step.
But despite this, this battleship is actually extremely huge, not to mention the width of several feet, and the distance between the ships is not small. Although this person has achieved a seven-foot spiritual body, it seems to be of no help to the overall situation of this naval battle. At most, he can protect him. This ship is safe.
But that man showed his methods.
The "arms" of this person's spiritual body actually took on the shape of "gloves". Then the spiritual light gloves came out of the body, as if there were two more palms; and these palms were controlled by a fine silk thread.
It can fly hundreds of feet away.
Then he blocked it with high speed and smashed the densest flying stone fire balls one by one, intercepting most of them.
Jade Chan's hammer spirit form can briefly separate from the body and reunite, but it cannot be as far away from the body as this "glove".
The eyes of the silver-haired man burst out with a heart-stopping brilliance, and he immediately shouted loudly, walking on the waves to seize the enemy's flagship!
The person opposite who was wearing transparent gloves let out a long laugh. Not only was he not in a hurry, but he looked like "it's just what I want." He put away his spiritual body and stepped out more than ten feet away.
, standing more than ten feet above the sea, waiting with arms folded.
When the silver-haired man came closer, he said calmly: "Xu Muyin, I knew you couldn't bear it."
The silver-haired man said coldly: "As long as I stop you, my Xuanxiao Department will definitely win. Why don't you come?"
The one wearing gloves shook his head repeatedly and said: "As long as you change your strategy, you will still have a greater chance of winning, but the loss will increase by more than 80%. And you took the initiative to stop me because you wanted to win completely; this means
I was just greedy, but it gave me a chance to make a comeback."
He paused, smiled, and said very confidently: "This plan is not a secret, but I know it will succeed. These pedantic bonds are the reason why you are buried here today."
The silver-haired man was silent for a while, then said: "The brothers of the Xuanxiao tribe have been following me for a long time, why should I bear to abandon them?"
The two spirit bodies appeared at the same time, and then they fought together.
The reason for this is not difficult to understand.
Because there are certain rules in naval battles, as the saying goes, "It is better to cut off one of the ten fingers than to injure ten of them." Whenever two fleets fight, both sides will concentrate their efforts on attacking one of the other's ships, causing one of the enemy's ships to lose its combat effectiveness and then move on to the next target.
; Be careful not to fire cannons all over the sky as rain and dew will catch them.
This is the reason why after this person used the magic method of leaving the body with his gloves, his hands, which were only a few feet in size, were able to block nearly half of the damage in one fell swoop.
The way to crack it is also easy, just give up the optimal fire concentration strategy and fire all over the sky.
Although the gloves transformed by that man's aura covered a large area, their size could not be changed, so they had little effect and were just a waste of spiritual power.
In this way, although the attack efficiency of the Xuanxiao Department has declined, its fleet size and sophistication are much better than those of the opposing Tiandang Department. In the end, it will still be the party with the last laugh. However, the losses it pays will increase sharply from 30% to 30%.
Eighty percent.
At this moment, Linghu Qubing disappeared and was watching from a distance in the sky.
After watching Yu Chan die in the hands of "Orion" Xin Weiying, Linghu Qubing immediately changed his direction and borrowed a "Reality Sword Talisman" that enhanced the speed of escape to escape, leaving only another sword shadow clone in Xin Weiying's place.
Observation neither far nor close.
Because although this Xin Weiying is very atypical, and it is a blessing to be able to understand Yuchan, he is not the "destined person" that Linghu Qubing is now.
A clear impression emerged in his mind, it was the silver-haired man in front of him - Xu Muyin, the leader of the Xuanxiao tribe, the largest force in Zhu Lu Nanhai.
The opponent they fought fiercely with was the Tiandang tribe, the second largest force in the South China Sea; the leader was the man wearing transparent gloves, Tang Xu.
These two people are also two of the only five in the Dingyuan realm among the hundred people currently.
Linghu's thoughts of curing the disease flashed.
From a strategic and tactical point of view, Tang Xu was far-sighted and used a conspiracy to understand Xu Muyin's character and lure him to fight. Judging from the energy and blood of the two men, in terms of merit and deeds, Xu Muyin was slightly better, but Tang Xumou
Determined and moved, there must be extremely powerful arrangements for home battles.
Linghu Qubing makes his own judgment. When his own strength and trump card are not enough to achieve total victory, he should not seek total victory. Otherwise, seeking total victory will lead to destruction, which will inevitably lead to overthrow. Disperse the firepower, and sit in the center of the center, motionless as a mountain, to firmly secure the victory.
Locking is the correct strategy.
As long as you and your core subordinates are still there, even if the losses are huge, it will not be difficult to make up for it.
But Linghu Qubing had a vague guess——
Perhaps the one who had the last laugh today was Xu Muyin.
This collection of hundreds of words is an extremely rare opportunity. Linghu Qubing will naturally not be afraid just because Xie Liangchu made a mistake. On the contrary, after meeting different characters and summing up the gains and losses,
Every battle for victory or defeat is an opportunity for you to try.
I keep coming up with hypotheses and then applying them; once they don't fit, I can eliminate a wrong theoretical inference. In this way, I can finally get closer to the correct answer.
At this moment, Linghu Qubing’s guess is:
These hundreds of people moved around, and opportunities changed. Perhaps they advocated the principle of simplicity, returning to simplicity, and favoring the "simple and natural" side. Judging from this standard, although Tang Xu was good at strategy, he was far inferior to Xu Muyin.
Already.
Just when he had this thought, the battle at sea came to an abrupt and dramatic end!
It turns out that Xu Muyin not only had the courage to fight until the end of the battle, but also had the determination to face death, or he was simply taking some kind of drug that stimulated his potential, and he had no reservations as soon as he made a move.
The golden dharma body, which was half a foot larger than Tang Xu's spirit body, hit hard and made Tang Xu's real body jerk up involuntarily like a swing.
At this moment, Tang Xu had already arranged for the back-up, the killer weapon controlled by the close subordinates of the Fusion Realm on the fighting ships on both sides, the "Fixing Light and Blood Melting Talisman" spontaneously ignited in the dark cabin at the bottom of the ship without wind, and then two shadows of blood illuminated it.
Came over.
If this talisman shines on a monk in the Fusion Yuan or Yang Yuan realms, it is enough to make his limbs so exhausted that he becomes drunk as mud; even if it shines on a monk in the Ding Yuan realm, it is enough to make him unable to move for ten breaths. In this way, there is no suspense about the outcome.
.
Tang Xu had secretly rehearsed the timing of activating this talisman countless times with his close subordinates. He thought that he was already very proficient in it and could not make any mistakes.
But once in actual combat, something went wrong - Xu Muyin's power was unexpectedly great!
Caught off guard, Tang Xu involuntarily swung so high that he intercepted the route and was hit by the "Fixing Light Blood Melting Talisman" first.
There is nothing better than this to trap yourself in a cocoon!
Xu Muyin's eyes narrowed.
If anyone else had seen Tang Xuding motionless in the air, he might have suspected whether he was hiding a trick. But Xu Muyin had no such thoughts. He had a good opportunity in front of him, so he naturally took action decisively. The spirit body and his body were activated together, and he punched down hard.
.
The next moment, in Tang Xu's horrified eyes, the shadow of a fist suddenly enlarged.
Then, the Dharma body disintegrated, the head was shattered, and the dead person could no longer die.
Linghu Qubing felt relieved.
This time it was as expected.
Xu Muyin's insight into world affairs and his understanding of the most subtle aspects of human emotions are not as delicate as Xie Liang's; but his decisiveness and boldness are even better. Moreover, he is in the Dingyuan realm, both in terms of ability and power vision.
