Chapter 468: 468

468 Cannons fired in a naval battle! One-sided massacre!

One had to look down on the enemy strategically and pay attention to their tactics. Although this saying had not been born in this world, Yan nanfei had carried it out in this way.

After all, he had already fought with Shen lang two years ago and lost in an inexplicable way. So this time, he had to be very, very, very careful.

Surrounding and annihilating him was the most conservative strategy. Furthermore, his Navy was eight times that of Shen Lang’s, and he had ten times the number of ships. He could completely surround him and then annihilate him.

A super fleet of 150000 people obviously took a long time to gather. Even the docks of raging tide city couldn’t accommodate so many warships at one time. All the large docks within a thousand miles were requisitioned.

In order to focus on this battle, all of raging tide city’s sea trade had stopped, and all of the merchant ships had to retreat to the pier on the north coast.

During this period of time, even though Yan nanfei had blocked the news, the news still flew out as if it had grown wings. It flew to raging tide city and Nujiang County.

……………………

Zhu Wenhua returned to Xuanwu city with great satisfaction. This time, the negotiation with Yan nanfei was a great success. From now on, he, Zhu Wenhua, would also be able to get a share of the sea trade in raging tide city.

Zhuo Zhaoyan’s table manners were too unsightly, which was why Yan nanfei was so hurt that he had to support Zhu Wenhua.

The matter had already been discussed, and the next step was to deal with Xu Qianqian. This was the most cost-effective method. It could build the silk business from scratch in the shortest time possible.

Zhu Wenhua was not worried that Xu Qianqian would not agree. She was a realistic and intelligent woman. No matter how painful the process was, she could only compromise in the end.

In order to protect her family, she could choose to side with Zhuo Zhaoyan. Why couldn’t she side with him, Zhu Wenhua?

Of course, he did not need to sleep with Zhuo Zhaoyan, but Zhu Wenhua would not be killed either.

“Someone, go and call Xu Qianqian over.” Zhu Wenhua ordered after they returned to the mayor’s residence.

However, he quickly changed his mind and said, ” no, I’ll go to the Xu family and ask for her hand in marriage.

Then, Zhu Wenhua led over a hundred people towards the Xu family. If the marriage proposal was unsuccessful, they would confiscate the property. After all, the crime was already in place.

Shen lang, you have contributed too much. You are already dead, but you can still use it.

The Xu family’s mansion had been burned down, and Xu Wanwan was considered to be working for Zhuo Zhaoyan, so she could not afford to live in the mansion.

The family lived in a courtyard of a few square meters, about two acres. Although it could be considered a big house, it was very simple compared to the previous Xu family manor.

After Zhu Wenhua entered the Xu family, he immediately greeted old mother Xu and said, ” “Grandmother Xu, I want to take Xu Qianqian as my concubine. Please grant my wish.”

This world was really overjoyed. In the past, such a marriage proposal would not happen to a noble. Even if it was a concubine, it had to be done according to the rules. At the very least, a matchmaker had to be invited. Who would directly rush to the door and force the marriage?

However, ever since ning Shao had inherited the throne, the general atmosphere of Yue country seemed to have changed all of a sudden.

The old mother of the Xu family was filled with grief and indignation. There was no justice in this world, and there was no daylight. Madam Xu had already been forced into such a situation. All of her family’s assets had been taken away, but there were still people who didn’t let them off. This was forcing them to their deaths.

Old Madam Xu really wanted to kill herself so that she wouldn’t be a burden to Xu Qianqian. However, when she thought of her grandson who had just turned 12, she immediately gave up on the idea.

It didn’t matter if she died because of her old age, but if this grandson died, the Xu family’s roots would be broken.

………………

At that moment, Xu Qianqian was sitting in front of the mirror.

She knew that Zhu Wenhua had returned and had barged into the Xu family’s house to force her to marry him. After all, the Xu family was so small now, so they must have heard everything clearly.

Zhu Wenhua’s negotiation in raging tide city was very successful. He had already obtained Yan nanfei’s support, and he was even more satisfied.

Could she, Xu Wanwan, refuse?

Unless she didn’t care about her family at all, but she really couldn’t do that. Now, there were only a few people left in the Xu family, and she was the pillar of support.

Zhu Wenhua was a bastard. If she didn’t agree, he would really kill the entire Xu family.

Xu Qianqian picked up a sharp dagger and looked at her face in the mirror.

She was so pretty, like a blooming flower. It was a pity that it was going to be ruined soon.

Not only did he want to disfigure her face, but he also wanted to make a few dozen cuts on her body. That way, Zhu Wenhua, that bastard, would probably have no appetite at all.

He carefully placed the dagger on his face. The cold feeling was really scary. It would definitely hurt a lot next.

Xu Qianqian’s dagger gently cut across her face, and a small wound immediately appeared, with blood gushing out.

It actually didn’t hurt, just a burning feeling.

However, such a small scar was completely insufficient. If he wanted to completely disfigure himself, his skin and flesh had to be split open, and his bones could be seen.

In that case, he would need even more courage.

“Bang!”

At this moment, the door was slammed open and a young man rushed in, snatching the dagger from her hand.

“Sister, what are you doing? What are you doing?”

don’t be like this. At most, we’ll fight them to the death. At most, we’ll just kill our entire family. Anyway, it’s too aggrieved and cowardly to live like this. I don’t want you to sacrifice yourself for me like this.

This was Xu Yun, Xu Qianqian’s younger brother. Although he was the descendant of a rich family, he had never had a good life since he was young. The Xu family was destroyed before he could understand what was going on. After he became more sensible, he had been living in fear. As the only male in the Xu family, he wanted to protect his sister, but he was too weak and helpless.

“Sister, if you dare to cut your face again, I’ll stab myself to death.” Xu Yun pointed the dagger at his own neck and shouted.

Xu Qianqian looked at her young brother and felt sad. If her brother was a bastard, it would be better. She wouldn’t have to make such a sacrifice. However, her brother was very sensible and promising.

However, in this dark world, so what if he had a future? Who knew how much torture and humiliation he had to go through before he could stand out? by that time, his humanity would have been completely destroyed.

Just like Zhu Wenhua, who was once a proud scholar. Now that he had finally made a name for himself, he had completely become a beast.

Therefore, she should bear some hardships as her sister!

The Xu family’s residence was too small. Zhu Wenhua quickly heard the commotion and rushed over. When he saw the wounds and blood on Xu Qianqian’s face, he was instantly enraged.

Xu Wanwan, what do you mean? You’d rather be disfigured than marry me as a concubine?

I, Zhu Wenhua, am a scholar of Yue country and the Son of the Lanshan Viscount, am I not worthy of you?

“Xu Qianqian, do you think you can stop me like this?” “I want you as a person and the fact that you were once Shen Lang’s woman,” Zhu Wenhua laughed. Even if my body is completely destroyed, I will still marry you as my concubine. If you have the ability, then kill yourself. You can die with your entire family.”

Xu Wanwan’s body trembled. She had never felt so powerless before.

That day, Xu Guangyun died, and the entire Xu family was almost wiped out. The big house was also burned down, but Xu Qianqian felt that she had become stronger.

But now, this feeling of power no longer existed, only endless weakness.

Because he had a weakness, because he had a bottom line, because he could not be absolutely shameless.

since we’ve already come to this point, I’ll just ask you one thing. Do you agree to marry me as my concubine? ” Zhu Wenhua sneered.

“I don’t agree!” Before Xu Qianqian could speak, Xu Yun shouted, ” “At most, you can just kill us. Just kill me, I’m not afraid of death.”

“Little brother, you don’t understand. There are things in this world that are scarier than death. Hahaha,” Zhu Wenhua laughed coldly.

Then, he pulled out a sword and pointed it at Xu Yun’s eyelids. He slowly said,”Xu Qianqian, if I were to exert a little more force, your brother would be blind in one eye. Do you agree or agree?”

Xu Yun was very afraid. His entire body was trembling, but he still didn’t move or take a step back. Then, the tip of the sword cut open his eyelid, and blood flowed down, blurring his vision.

Zhu Wenhua said,”Xu Qianqian, I’ll count down from five. Five, four, three Qianqian.”

At this moment, a figure quickly rushed over and whispered something into Zhu Wenhua’s ear.

latest news, news from raging tide city. Shen lang has returned.

The moment he said this, Zhu Wenhua’s hand trembled. The tip of his sword left a long gash on Xu Yun’s forehead and eyelids, causing blood to flow out.

“What? How is this possible?” Zhu Wenhua screeched,”is it just a rumor?” Same as before?”

In the past two years, there were more than one or two news about Shen Lang’s return. However, they were all rumors. The Yue country even killed a few hundred people because of this. Only then did the rumors about Shen Lang’s return gradually die down.

“It’s not a rumor. It’s news from Lord Yan nanfei.” The trusted warrior said.

Zhu Wenhua’s body was stiff and trembling. He couldn’t believe his ears.

Shen lang was still alive? How could this ominous thing resist it? it didn’t die even after this?

Zhu Wenhua looked at Xu Qianqian and took a deep breath.

Now, it was no longer important to marry Xu Qianqian as a concubine. Even the silk business was no longer important.

Shen Lang’s return would definitely cause a huge change in the world, and the sea trade of raging tide city would be cut off for a long time.

“Take down the entire Xu family.” Zhu Wenhua ordered.

Immediately, a few hundred Warriors rushed in and began to raid the house.

An hour later, the remaining dozen or so people of the Xu family, including the servants, were all captured and locked up in the cells of Xuanwu city.

……………………

“What? Shen lang had returned? How is this possible?”

Zhuo Zhaoyan’s reaction was even more intense than Zhu Wenhua’s. After all, she was closer to the sky-Sea Pavilion and knew how dangerous the great Devil’s Triangle was.

Shen lang actually came back alive. How many lives did he have?

The world was about to change again!

“Let’s go!” Zhuo Zhaoyan quickly rode on a fast horse and led a group of Knights out of the original Marquis of Xuanwu’s residence.

But where should he go? Zhuo Zhaoyan was in a dilemma. Should she report to the sky-Sea Pavilion or the capital?

After hesitating for a while, Zhuo Zhaoyan decided to head south to the sky-Sea Pavilion first before heading to the capital of Yue Kingdom.

………………

Half a month later, Yan nanfei’s 150000-strong fleet was still gathered. They headed south and attacked the Shen Lang’s fleet.

Now, he was no longer panicking as the information about Shen lang was becoming clearer. Yan nanfei had even sent Scouts and fast ships to monitor Shen Lang’s fleet.

It had been close to 20 days since they discovered the Shen lang fleet. By right, the Shen lang fleet should have already reached raging tide city.

However, ever since they were discovered, the speed of Shen Lang’s fleet had slowed down. Furthermore, they were circling around the sea.

Yan nanfei’s Scout fleet also became more and more daring. They observed from a closer distance and kept sending back information.

Shen Lang’s fleet should be mainly made up of Pirates. Furthermore, the people in this pirate fleet were very mixed. There were yellow, white, and many brown people.

At first, Yan nanfei thought that they were mercenaries, but the flag of the skeleton gang was too conspicuous.

Most people knew nothing about the Western world, but there were always exceptions. For example, Yin Yuan Association, some sea merchants and nobles who had fled from the Western world to the eastern world, and the slave owners who had been destroyed by Chou Yao ‘er.

They sent a crucial signal to Yan nanfei. This was the skeleton gang, the most powerful pirate in the Western world, but they had disappeared for more than ten years.

Even though the slave owners of the West had used exaggerated words to describe the skeleton party’s fleet, Yan nanfei was completely relieved.

Pirates loved to brag. Even if they were strong, how strong could they be?

The Western world’s civilization seemed to have started from the xilun dynasty, and it had only been a few hundred years since then. In front of the eastern world, they were completely on the level of underlings. They were Kings and tyrants in the Western world, but when they came to the eastern world, they could only be cowards.

Furthermore, there were only less than twenty thousand Pirates, so they couldn’t do much.

………………

It was a sunny day above the sea.

The formation of Yan nanfei’s fleet was slowly forming.

In fact, he had not received any orders from the Vietnamese capital, but there was no need for that. This was because the great Yan Empire’s previous decree was clear. Once they discovered that Shen lang had returned, they did not need to ask for instructions from anyone and would immediately destroy him with all their might.

These days, Yan nanfei had not been able to sleep at all, due to his excitement and nervousness.

Shen Lang’s return was shocking, but the opportunity and credit were more important.

Last time, in order to establish his power, the Emperor sent out half of the world’s Army to encircle and annihilate Shen lang. In fact, there was no need for that. He just wanted to intimidate the countries in the world and use the name of Jiang Li’s son to sweep the world.

However, if he could kill Shen lang this time, he would have made a great contribution. By then, he would no longer be the Earl of Wu an. He would be promoted to a Marquis or even a Duke.

In this world, there was no other enemy that was more valuable than Shen lang. He was powerful but weak.

For the past few days, Yan nanfei had been worried that Shen lang would suddenly jump out of the encirclement and escape.

This was because it was too difficult and too slow to build an encirclement in the vast sea.

In order not to scare Shen lang away, Yan nanfei’s encirclement was even more accurate. He ensured that the encirclement was in progress but did not enter the vision of Shen Lang’s fleet.

It took him five days and five nights.

The big encirclement was a success.

Yan nanfei’s 150000 fleet had surrounded them.

He heaved a long sigh of relief.

He, Yan nanfei, was about to make an unparalleled contribution.

“Shrink the encirclement and kill!”

……………………

Following Yan nanfei’s command, the huge encirclement slowly shrank.

If one looked down from the sky, one would see an extremely spectacular scene.

This huge encirclement had a diameter of more than 200 miles. Yan nanfei’s 150000 fleet was scattered across the sea area of more than 10000 square kilometers, and then it kept shrinking.

There was no radio in this world, so it was impossible to command from a long distance.

It was not easy for Yan nanfei. He had trained countless times to complete this encirclement in a few days and nights.

Has Shen Lang’s fleet moved? ” Yan nanfei held his breath and asked.

“No, I didn’t!”

After a while, Yan nanfei asked, ” Has Shen Lang’s fleet moved? ”

“No, I didn’t!”

Yan nanfei was in disbelief. What kind of trick was Shen lang playing?

This was the vast deep sea, so it was impossible to get stranded.

However, there was a slave owner from the West beside Yan nanfei, who was introducing the skeleton gang.

Yan nanfei said,”in other words, the skeleton party’s fleet is good at jumping ships?” Did you rely on your courage?”

“Yes.”

you said that the skeleton fleet disappeared more than a decade ago, ” Yan nanfei said. does that mean that the average age of this fleet is at least 40 years old? ”

“I think so, my Lord.” The slave owner from the Western world said.

That was even more appropriate. Yan nanfei felt that his fleet would not give the skeleton party a chance to jump off the ship and fight, so he fired tens of thousands of arrows from two hundred meters away.

And even if they jumped off the ship, how could they defeat 150000 people with less than 20000? Absolutely impossible!

………………

The encirclement of Yan nanfei’s 150000-strong fleet was getting smaller and smaller.

Finally, both fleets came into view.

Shen Lang’s sub-fleet was already considered huge. There were 100 battleships and close to 20000 people. However, compared to Yan nanfei’s fleet, they were so insignificant.

However, what surprised Yan nanfei was that Shen Lang’s fleet did not move at all. They followed the current and even kept their sails.

What was Shen lang doing?

But no matter what he wanted to do, what could be better than an unmoving enemy fleet in this world?

In the last naval battle, deep waves had relied on the speed of his fleet to desperately escape and fly kites. Otherwise, his entire Army would have been annihilated.

But now, he couldn’t run even if he wanted to.

The two fleets were getting closer and closer.

Yan nanfei’s 150000 strong fleet was like a huge beast that wanted to swallow Shen Lang’s fleet.

He really couldn’t suppress his excitement.

The current situation was too wonderful.

………………

The current situation was too good, and that was Shen Lang’s feeling.

What was one most afraid of in a naval battle? The enemy fleet was sparse, so it would take at least dozens of shots to grasp the accuracy.

In order to achieve the Wolf Pack effect, Yan nanfei’s fleet was so crowded and dense that the distance between the ships was almost smaller than the safety distance.

“Left and right wings, attack!”

Under Yan nanfei’s command, the ships from the East and West quickly moved towards the center.

“Raise the sails!” Jack Dunn gave the order.

Shen Lang’s 100 battleships raised their sails.

Yan nanfei’s fleet was shocked, only raising the sails at this time? Wasn’t it too late? At this point, even if your fleet grew wings, they would not be able to escape.

The two fleets continued to close in.

“Remove the cannon cover!” Jackal Dunn ordered.

All of a sudden, all the armors of the battleships were lifted.

Yan nanfei was stunned. What, what was this metal pipe? It was thick and black.

“Ready!”

Jack Dunn shouted.

The commander of each warship shouted, and the flag bearers on the mast waved the flag signal in an orderly manner.

The cannoneers of the skeleton gang and the Knights of the East began to stuff explosives and shells into the cannons, and began to aim.

As the enemy ships approached, they began to adjust their muzzles.

Shen Lang’s cannons were beyond the primitive stage. There was no black gunpowder anymore. All of them were explosives with shocking power. Even though they were still iron balls, the cannons were made of steel, and their durability was shocking.

Therefore, the maximum range of the cannon could reach more than two thousand meters, and the effective range could also reach more than one thousand meters.

The ship’s measurement crew was very experienced in calculating the enemy’s distance.

“1800 meters.”

one thousand five hundred meters.

“1000 meters!”

“900 meters!”

“Fire the cannons!”

“Fire the cannons!”

Following the orders, more than 500 cannons opened fire.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

A series of earth-shaking roars rang out.

500 cannonballs were shot out like lightning.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.” These cannonballs drew a beautiful arc in the air and smashed towards Yan nanfei’s fleet. A series of whistling sounds rang out in the air.

It felt great!

It felt too good!

This was the feeling of all the members of the skeleton gang.

Previously, in order to save ammunition, they did not dare to open fire like this when they came to the sea.

With a sharp weapon in his hand, his killing intent rose. With this kind of cannon, he couldn’t fight a real battle, which was really suffocating.

Now, all the desire to fight had begun to pour out.

……………………

However, Yan nanfei first saw the incoming cannonballs and then heard the deafening sound.

Then, he was completely stunned.

W-w-what kind of weapon is this? It could actually hit so far? How could it be so earth-shattering?

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The sailors of Yan nanfei’s fleet were shocked by this scene.

There was a whistling sound in the sky, and countless black dots flew over their heads. They were extremely fast, and they flew hundreds of meters away almost instantly.

With such a long distance, be it Shen lang or Jack Dunn, they did not even think about the hit rate.

But his luck was just that good.

“Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!”

A dozen of the cannonballs hit the enemy ship.

Even at such a distance, the high-speed iron ball still displayed an amazing lethality.

It hit the mast and broke it.

It hit the deck and went right through it.

If it hit a human body, it would be directly crushed into pieces.

However, before Yan nanfei could express his shock …

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

A series of loud noises came again.

Then, hundreds of black dots were shot out from Shen Lang’s fleet.

This was not only because the firing speed was fast, but also because the left and right sides had to take turns to fire, so that they could relatively effectively offset the recoil when firing.

A moment later!

“Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!”

Another dozen cannonballs smashed into Yan nanfei’s fleet, causing them to be crushed into pieces.

…………………………

“Marshal, what should we do? What do we do?”

Yan nanfei’s scalp turned numb. He turned to the slave owners of the Western world and said, ” is this the fighting style of the skeleton gang? ”

The slave owner was completely stunned. He had never seen such a weapon before.

no, no, no, the skeleton gang doesn’t have such a weapon. The Western world doesn’t have such a weapon either.

Yan nanfei’s teeth turned cold. Without a doubt, this was created by Shen lang.

Even though it was shocking, the accuracy was still too low. As long as they got close, their fleet could kill Shen Lang’s fleet even if they had the advantage of numbers.

Yan nanfei gritted his teeth and ordered, ” “Continue forward, continue forward!”

“The left and right armies, continue to advance. The north and south armies are slowly approaching and are ready to reinforce.”

Then, the two fleets on the left and right of Yan nanfei accelerated instead.

“Fire!”

“Fire!”

The orders were issued.

Shen Lang’s fleet continued to fire.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The deafening noise above the sea was deafening. The red-hot iron balls whizzed past in the sky like countless meteors.

If it was a primitive cannon, the firing speed would be very difficult to deal with. However, Shen lang used almost smokeless gunpowder and wrapped it with oil-soaked silk. After firing, the chamber did not need to be cleaned. It was almost completely burned without any residue.

“Fire the cannons!”

“Fire the cannons!”

More than a thousand cannons were firing wildly.

As the cannons fired, the cannoneers of Shen Lang’s fleet started to feel the effects and their accuracy increased.

Furthermore, Yan nanfei’s fleet was too dense.

In the beginning, the hit rate was less than three-fifty percent, but it had increased to an astonishing ten percent.

Each time, more than 50 to 60 cannonballs would hit the enemy ship.

Once hit, a huge hole would be torn open, and the sea water would surge in.

“Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!”

One of the cannonballs hit the oil tank directly, penetrating several protective layers in an instant. The red-hot iron ball hit the fish oil directly.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

An earth-shattering explosion burst out with earth-shattering flames.

The part above the deck of Yan nanfei’s warship was completely shattered and burned.

The warship was completely destroyed.

“Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!”

The destruction of one of the battleships was like a prologue.

Following that, more than a dozen cannonballs hit the same ship at the same time. In an instant, the iron balls swept across and shattered everything in their path.

The battleship seemed to have been cut in half. The most important part was the Dragon Bone, which had been cut in half.

“Creak!”

After a series of ear-piercing sounds, the entire warship broke in half.

Yan nanfei’s second warship was destroyed.

Then the third, fourth, and fifth warships.

It was a one-sided massacre on the entire sea!
