Chapter 917 Queen of the Sea (Part 2)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The dispatch of a large fleet cannot be concealed from anyone.

    As early as hundreds of nautical miles away, the Sea Dragon King knew that the Chen family's fleet was coming towards him.

    Relying on the fact that he had a strong fortress and more than 10,000 troops on the two islands, the Sea Dragon King even ran out to challenge the enemy at first.

    He wanted to make a sneak attack at night, but was caught by Chen Xiaowei who was well prepared.

    As a result, more than 30 of his ships, plus more than 100 small fire boats, were all beaten to pieces by the Chen family's fleet. More than 2,000 bandits were beaten, and only about 600 people were left to follow him and flee back to their hometown.

    Then he fled back to Dragon King Island. Standing on the Dragon King Castle, the Sea Dragon King specifically shouted for Chen Xiaowei to beat him.

    He wanted to completely defeat the Chen family's army, then pursue the victory and capture the entire Chen family's fleet, turning defeat into victory.

    It¡¯s no wonder that Sea Dragon King still has such confidence after his defeat.

    It is true that the Dragon King Castle is too strong, and its past record is very good. Including the pirate minions, they never thought that the Dragon King Castle would be captured.

    And then they were in tragedy.

    After a day of observation and planning, Chen Xiaowei launched an attack directly the next day.

    The first step is still to throw wooden handle grenades and hell cocktails wildly.

    Knowing that Dragon King Castle was difficult to defeat, Chen Xiaowei specially prepared 5,000 wooden handle grenades and 20,000 hell cocktails.

    Because the terrain of Dragon King Castle is very high, they directly used trebuchets.

    Yes.

    The Chen family¡¯s fleet is also equipped with trebuchets, which are usually disassembled into parts and reassembled when they need to overcome difficulties.

    After dozens of test firings, more than ten rounds of rocks of various sizes were thrown up, destroying buildings and defenses.

    Then rounds of hellish cocktails were thrown out, causing all kinds of fires - it was impossible to use rocks everywhere, and as long as the gasoline touched people, it would burn close to the skin, making it impossible to throw it away.  Don't fall off.

    While they were in chaos, from time to time another round of wooden-handled grenades would be thrown out.

    This makes it even harder to guard against.

    After Song Bo and the others personally put up the torn wooden handle grenade, they grasped the timing very well. They usually exploded within the range of five meters in the air to the ground.

    As long as the pirates did not dodge, they would be shot directly through the shrapnel and die on the spot.

    But if you choose to hide because you are afraid of being attacked by rocks, wooden-handled grenades, and hell cocktails, then the fortress¡¯s moat will no longer exist.

    At the first pass on the most critical pass, no one was shooting arrows, no one was throwing stones, and no one was condescendingly stabbing the attacking troops with swords and guns.

    It¡¯s not that they¡¯ve been hiding.

    In fact, they will appear from time to time.

    But the wooden handle grenades and hell cocktails below attack from time to time.

    There is no guarantee that you will encounter someone every time you leave a hidden place.

    This sense of unrest and uncertainty caused them to collapse and become afraid to go out.

    It was at this time that the Chen family¡¯s sergeants took the opportunity to rush forward.

    ¡°Well, the first batch are still those traitors.

    After fighting so many battles, they already know that the greater the danger, the greater the reward.

    If you are unlucky and die, you will die. Anyway, you will die.

    But if you are lucky, not only do you get in, but you also survive, then you will make a lot of money.

    Therefore, most of the hundreds of corpses under the Dragon King Castle belong to these traitors.

    It¡¯s not that the regular army is afraid of death.

    It¡¯s really impossible to charge them, these traitors charge very fast!  !

    ¡­¡­

    No matter what, from the moment the stone was thrown, in just one hour, the Dragon King Fort, which was said to "never fall", was completely under the control of the Chen family's army.

    After everyone searched like crazy, they finally found the Sea Dragon King in a secret place - the basement below the horse pen.

    When he was escorted out, the forty-year-old gangster immediately knelt down when he saw Chen Xiaowei for the first time, and said in substandard Dakang Mandarin: "Madam! Please spare me!"  I will work hard for you, charge into battle for you loyally, rule the entire sea, and make you the queen of the sea!!"

    Chen Xiaowei ignored him and just asked herself the question she had asked hundreds of times: "In July seven years ago, our Chen family fleet was attacked by the sea in the southeastern waters.Battles, big and small, have been fought hundreds of times, and each time there are similarities and differences.

    But after a detailed summary, Chen Xiaowei summarized many experiences and lessons. This is why the sergeants suffered fewer casualties as they fought.

    But this time when they attacked the Dragon King Castle, the army, which had not experienced large-scale casualties for a long time, unexpectedly had more than 500 people killed and more than 700 injured.

    Although two-thirds of the casualties were the casualties of the New Army members who had reformed their evil ways, they had already been accepted by Chen Xiaowei and regarded as one of her own, so the casualties must be counted as her own.

    Of course, the reason why Dragon King Castle is so condescending is that it is difficult to pass everywhere.

    But this also highlights that our side¡¯s offensive methods are not rich enough.

    Chen Xiaowei had studied Liu Mingqi¡¯s combat methods before and asked Liu Mingqi about this method of suppressing fire and then breaking through at a single point. It was Liu Mingqi who suggested it to her.

    But it¡¯s not enough.

    "At least in today's battle, if you have a few hot air balloons in your hand, whether you throw hell cocktails, wooden handle grenades, or kerosene from the hot air balloons, the casualties will be reduced by at least half.

    Even if I just keep throwing things down.

    This fortress built on a desperate situation will all collapse.

    ¡°Well, speaking of it, Chen Xiaowei is indeed Liu Mingqi¡¯s little wife.

    She never thought that her idea was directly connected with Liu Mingqi's actions of burning down the Tubo Palace.

    In addition to hot air balloons, Chen Xiaowei also wants more powerful explosives - the kind that can blow up the gates of hell.

    If you have enough power, you can bury explosives directly under the fortress. After a burst of bombing, the Dragon King Fort will collapse. It will be easy to kill it at that time.

    ??Then the last time my mother-in-law wrote from Beijing, she said that my husband was still studying something called a cannon, which was going to be installed on the ship in the future.

    It is said that with cannons, it is not a problem to capture cities, seize territory, or sink ships.

    ? Then you have to assemble this wonderful weapon yourself.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Otherwise, if the voyage and combat lasts so long, I will only take a few people with me, and each battle will consume one, two, three, or five hundred people. After arriving, there will be no troops, how can we kill the enemy?

    It is necessary for the army not to be afraid of death, but such elites cannot be consumed at will.

    Being able to reduce combat casualties as much as possible is the foundation for a fleet to survive in the long term.
