    The waves were rolling on the sea, and under the setting sun, the battleship Zhiyuan once again crossed the Black Scale Island.  The flag on Black Scale Island has fallen, and the island has once again become a world of sea monsters.

    But this time the warship did not stop, but directly crossed the island and headed towards the inland sea and the Emerald Sea.

    After the previous two battles, this time the journey was safe and nothing happened.

    And just after crossing Black Scale Island, we saw a huge fleet of ships.  Those are the fleets of various trading houses in the East; they have been waiting here for a long time.

    But most business firms were disappointed.  Because this time, all the products on the Zhiyuan battleship have been reserved, and they can only stare.

    The 32 businesses heading to Qixia Kingdom have already reserved all their products.  So this time the transaction was much faster. The surrounding merchant ships came over and everyone completed the transaction quickly.

    This time, the Zhiyuan battleship traded more than 400 tons of elixirs - this time there were a lot more high-end elixirs, filling up the free positions and storage space of the Zhiyuan battleship.

    But this time Dugu Junjie did not leave immediately, but invited everyone to start visiting the battleship.  But the number of people at any one time is strictly limited.

    On the battleship, some samples of products are also retained: a ton of 99.7% black iron, a ton of 99.7% steel, and three sword bars.  And of course the steel battleship itself and its artillery.

    Temporarily open a 100mm cannon on the side, and spend 50 high-grade spiritual stones to try a cannon shell.  Because he was preparing to bombard Qianlong Port in a few days, Dugu Junjie restricted the use of artillery shells every day.

    1,800 tons of artillery shells sounds like a lot, but a 100 mm artillery shell costs 18 kilograms; a 300 mm artillery shell costs 380 kilograms.  If all 1,800 tons of artillery shells are converted into 300 mm artillery shells, there are only 4,737 artillery shells.

    If five 300mm artillery pieces are fired at full speed, five cannons per minute will last only three and a half hours.  In fact, considering the 'work efficiency' of cultivators, it is hard to say whether they can last for three hours.  When these gunners encountered a war, they worked hard to stuff the shells.

    The giant ship floated on the sea for more than four days, firing a total of 400 100mm shells, which attracted a lot of attention.  Dugu Junjie promised that Dayang Group will bring 100mm artillery sales next time.

    Oriental Commercial Banks have said -we can afford it!

    Yes, it only takes about ten days for the Zhiyuan giant ship to make a round trip; and as the route becomes familiar, the time should be shortened to seven days.  But it would take a year or even longer for everyone to come here from the east; waiting for a month or two is trivial.  Some people even expressed their desire to go to the Country of Qixia for observation.  But this time Dugu Junjie refused - we still have a mission!

    However, in this lively atmosphere, there are also some discordant voices.

    It was spread by Lengfeng and other rangers.

    But he said that when he visited the shipbuilding base, Zhang Hao rudely refused Leng Feng and other rangers to visit. Moreover, because Zhang Hao needed to show off his authority, and Leng Feng and others had a bad tone, Zhang Hao's tone at the beginning was also very bad.

    However, in the Kingdom of Qixia and on the steel battleship, Leng Feng and others did not dare to come forward; now they returned to their own territory, and bad noises came out.

    It¡¯s hard to hear an outburst that has been suppressed for so long.

    Four days later, these words finally reached Dugu Junjie¡¯s ears.

    "Arrogant? Bullying? Looking down on the rangers? Stingy? Going back on your word?" Dugu Junjie shook his head with a sneer, "I really have to thank them. They are just clowns, and they should not be taken seriously!"

    "It doesn't matter? Why should we thank them so much?" Chen Yansong was a little confused.

    Dugu Junjie said with a smile, "Master Zhang Hao once said that a trading firm that everyone praises needs to be wary. On the contrary, a trading firm with a bad reputation is trustworthy. I don't know why this is the case. But in fact it is.  so.

    In fact, many people in Qixia are secretly insulting Dayang Group, but the harder they scold, the better Dayang Group will develop!

    I think this kind of insult is the real appreciation in the ears of smart people.  A jealous mad admiration.

    As the saying goes, the sound of great music is invisible; this kind of insult is a different kind of praise.  "

    Chen Yansong nodded thoughtfully, which sounded reasonable.

    Dugu Junjie looked up at the sky and said, "It's time for us to set off. When we left, we made an agreement with the Country of Canglan that on the morning of the eighth day after departure, when the sun rises, we would bombard the Qianlong Port.

    It¡¯s just right to rush over now.  "

    &??Forcing the country to take back the port as soon as possible.

    Now Huang Shaoxian can be said to have carried the multiple hopes of the domestic family and royal family.  If it succeeds this time, the Huang family will definitely take off; but if it fails there will be consequences at your own risk!

    Dawn has arrived, Huang Shaoxian's breathing became more and more rapid, and he put his hands together.  The war has become more and more intense, and the artillery of the Canglan Kingdom keeps roaring.

    In addition to the artillery made of more than fifty steel barrels purchased from the Zhang family, the country of Canglan also used its own technology and craftsmen to build thousands of artillery.  These artillery pieces are forged from low-purity dark iron, but they are still sufficient for ordinary warfare, and their range can reach five or six kilometers.

    So many artillery pieces almost completely lit up the night sky at dawn.  Although there are no artillery in Langya Kingdom, they have many traditional and powerful weapons.

    For example, the current Langya Kingdom received a "stone cannon" from the Xiaoyao Sect.  This kind of stone cannon can smash out boulders weighing hundreds of kilograms, and the boulders also have magical effects.  These boulders fell like meteors with flames, creating a death radius of seven to eight meters each time.  This power is no longer weaker than a 100mm artillery.

    Time passed by minute by minute. Huang Shaoxian watched the stone cannon attack from Langya Kingdom and his own artillery attack, and counted the time.

    As the dawn gradually passed, the obvious white fish belly appeared in the east, and gradually a faint red light appeared.

    Morning is coming!

    I wonder if the attack promised by the Kingdom of Qixia will come back?

    Huang Shaoxian was a little excited when he thought of the 300 mm caliber cannon on the Zhiyuan battleship.  An artillery piece of this caliber will definitely bring surprises to Langya Country!

    The morning glow appeared, and the war became more and more intense.  And Huang Shaoxian's mood became more and more nervous.

    Next to him, Zhennan General Cui Yan looked at Huang Shaoxian from time to time, his eyes full of 'concern'.

    Suddenly at a certain moment, the morning sun jumped out, and suddenly thousands of golden lights enveloped the battlefield.  However, under this bright light, human beings are engaged in a cruel cannibalism.

    The artillery from the Qixia Kingdom and the stone cannon from the Xiaoyao Sect are engaged in a confrontation between the old and the new.

    Time seemed to pass very slowly at this time. Huang Shaoxian was almost counting his heartbeats to pass the time.

    The rising sun gradually rises in the east and gradually jumps out of the mountains. However, the attack from the Kingdom of Qixia still does not appear.

    Cui Yan finally couldn't help but speak: "Prime Minister Huang, are you"

    Before he finished speaking, flames suddenly exploded behind the Langya Defense Line in the distance, and a thick cloud of gunpowder smoke rose.  And this is just the beginning.

    "Here we come!" Huang Shaoxian finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Cui Yan sideways, "General Cui, our original agreement was that the sun would rise in the east. There's nothing wrong with it!"

    Cui Yan:

    "What are you still doing? Attack quickly! The Kingdom of Qixia only has one warship and can only conduct one wave of attacks. The general must seize the opportunity!"

    Cui Yan snorted, turned and left.  But he did not immediately order an attack. Instead, he let the artillery corps blast at full strength for half an hour before finally launching a general attack.

    At the same time, the attack from the sea also completely panicked the defenders of Langya Country.  Especially the 300mm cannon, it's so powerful, isn't it?

    The 100mm shell is only 18 kilograms, with a charge of only six or seven kilograms; while the 300mm shell has a charge of up to 200 kilograms - the Zhang family's engineers have been debugging this charge.

    Every explosion of a 300mm artillery shell shakes the earth.  After Sishui Port felt this power, the defenders of Langya Kingdom in Qianlong Port also enjoyed it.

    With one cannonball dropped, half of the thousand-man regiment was gone.

    And the saddest thing is that in the face of such an attack, there is no way to reply!  The Langya Kingdom Legion was not even prepared.

    Only a few people know about the transaction between the Kingdom of Qixia and the Kingdom of Canglan.  Before Dugu Junjie attacks, he has to circle around.

    ¡°Compared with the last attack on Surabaya Port, this time we were fully prepared. The bombardment lasted for more than an hour, and the 1,800-ton shells fired a full 700 tons.

    Then Dugu Junjie ordered the bombardment to stop, and the warships began to retreat and prepare to return.

    And the war in Qianlong Port has begun to enter street fighting!

    (Today, Kavin, my arms cramped again, and my fingers hurt. This half-month outbreak has reached its limit.) (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
