After a small half-moon voyage, the Jinxia fleet could see the gray coastline
and the towering city walls facing the harbor.
Earlier, the navy had dispatched several green shuttles, carrying more than 20
soldiers from the Yamama origin to land on the coast ahead of time,
establishing a contact point on the shore, and at the same time getting on the
line with the Yamama side.
In this era, the government's ability to control the countryside is about
zero. As long as it is not close to the town, the Jinxia reconnaissance force
can move at will. The team led by Li and Shanhui even erected a simple sentry
tower on a hillside near Tsushima House two days in advance. After climbing to
the top of the tower covered by branches, they could see the situation of most
of the city.
Relying on radio communication, the information collected by the sentries can
be transmitted to Noah's tree boat on the same day. The ability of both
parties to obtain information is unique in the world. At present, the news
that Jinxia has mastered mainly includes the following points: First, the
flight route from the mainland to Yama Island has been completely smooth.
Although there have been sporadic attacks by evil spirits in the middle, they
are not at the level of the Great Demon. Their control is declining sharply,
and they have been unable to free up excess resources to settle down and block
sea routes.
Second, the Seven Stars did not rush to expand their territory after occupying
the Bumi Mansion. They seemed to just use this northern port as a stronghold.
According to the information provided by May Yaoyao, the Privy Council's
troops have been divided into two groups. One of the troops is heading north,
and it seems that they are going to find trouble in the settlement; the other
is continuing to the east, and the destination is not yet clear. Their
logistical supplies depended entirely on the capture along the way, and from a
formal point of view, there was no preparation for long-term combat.

The third is that the Queen of Demons is not very stable. After the news of
the Seven Stars landing spread, some noble families began to say that the
Seven Star Privy House was the orthodox voice of the mainland. . Wuyueyao is
suppressing such remarks, but there is no doubt that she cannot prevent
someone from contacting Qixing privately, so Jinxia Army can only get limited
support from the May side.
Based on these information, the purpose of this expedition is quite clear,
that is, to defeat the Seven Stars plan and at the same time show the strength
of Jinxia City, spread the voice of supporting the Queen of Demons, and
completely stabilize the status of the great witch.
"Hey... Be careful, the guards of the city seem to have noticed you." Li's
voice came from the signal instrument.
"I noticed it at this time, it's already too late." Xia Fan raised his
observation mirror and could clearly see the reaction outside the harbor \-
they were hurriedly gathering the fishing boats and closing the pier. There
were also many figures running around the city. Eight or nine times they were
erecting defensive weapons. It is a pity that Tsushima does not have the
concept of outer defense. Now the Jinxia fleet has occupied a favorable
position. The four ships Baisha, Jiujiang, Anshen and Gaoshan are lined up in
front of the formation, crossing the coastline from north to south. , Noah's
tree boat is in the rear, and all the artillery it carries can reach the city
wall of Tsushima.
"Your Highness Princess, Lord Xia, the target has entered our artillery firing
range!" reported Captain Wu Yue of the Baisha.
Xia Fan nodded to Ning Wanjun.
The latter cleared his throat and uttered two words in a deep voice, "Fire."
"Yes!"
The alarm bells on the ship suddenly rang, and after tens of seconds, the bow
turret and the stern turret of the Baisha took the lead in firing \- when the
high-power electromagnetic gun was activated, it did not have the earth-
shattering feeling of conventional artillery. Only when the gun pops out of
the chamber can you see the flames generated by friction with the air and the
short roar caused by the expansion of the air.
But this does not mean that the shelling of the White Sands has no power.
On the test firing range outside Jinxia City, the long-barreled damage
projectiles connected in series by the talismans were far superior to the West
Pole flowering projectiles in terms of accuracy and destructive power. After a
short flight, two groups of fireballs shot up from the city wall of Tsushima
Mansion, one of which was closer to the wall, and the violent air wave lifted
several defenders.
The other three ships also fired one after another \- because their hulls did
not belong to the first-class warships, only one battery was installed in the
bow, but the firing efficiency of the electromagnetic guns was not low, and
the single-barrel guns could be fired every 40 seconds. , this frequency has
been called shocking to outsiders.
The defenders of Tsushima had never seen such a battle!
The unfamiliar fleet is still only at the sea level, and the artillery fire is
already here, and they can't even fight back. Whether it is a bronze gun, a
trebuchet, or a crossbow, at this distance, it can only be far behind!
It would be fine if it was just unilaterally beaten. What's worse, Tsushima's
city walls were not as indestructible as they seemed. Less than a quarter of
an hour after the shelling started, the walls were already riddled with holes,
and a large piece of masonry was shaken and disintegrated, as if it were
collapsing. This was a severe blow to the morale of the defenders. One of the
strongest fortress cities on the island, there will be a day when it will be
smashed head-on.
At this moment, a light boat suddenly rushed out of the pier, heading towards
the Jinxia fleet.
Jin Xiajun also quickly noticed the movement of the boat \- the light boat had
neither oars nor sails, and there was only one person standing on it, but the
waves seemed to follow his figure, pushing the light boat to break through the
waves!
As the distance between the two sides got closer, the vision also appeared
immediately. I saw the waves behind him continue to rise, gradually forming a
wave wall!
The waves that hit the coast from the sea smashed into pieces on this wave
wall, and each time a wave was absorbed, it would rise higher, and even at a
considerable distance, the rumbling sound of the waves could be heard. ,
Uninformed people will even think that this is a tsunami coming!
There is no doubt that the other party is the one who is angry.
"Ow---------!"
Just as the wave wall was approaching the fleet, a gentle dragon roar
resounded through the sky.
Seeing that the wave wall, which had risen to seven or eight meters, suddenly
subsided, and in the blink of an eye, it was pressed down to only a layer of
waves, and then collided with other waves and turned into a pool of white
foam.
The light boat, which lost the assistance of the waves, also stopped
immediately.
The person who felt anger was stunned in place, completely lost his previous
high-level demeanor.
And the various small-caliber weapons on the White Sands have been aimed at
him.
Before he could jump off the boat, a violent salvo tore the canoe to shreds.
...
"Lord Kido, the thieves are ferocious, and the west city wall can't be
defended. You better go!" The guards in Tsushima Mansion urged anxiously.
"Where's my Weihai General? He should be unmatched on the sea!" City Lord Kido
crossed the trail back and forth.
"General Weihai... he has fallen!"
"What did you say!?"
"My subordinates don't dare to talk nonsense~www.mtlnovel.com~ He really
failed to resist the enemy!" The guard replied hard.
After confirming that his subordinates did not lie about the military
situation, Castle Lord Kido couldn't help showing a desperate look.
What is all this called? There is no announcement, no messenger, the other
party will storm the city wall as soon as he shows up, even the pirates who
used to be rampant are not like this, right? At least they will make
conditions, and they can negotiate and negotiate, unlike this group of people,
who are reluctant to even say a word.
He is not a die-hard loyalist of King Dongsheng, isn't he just surrendering?
No matter whether the comer is the Seven Star Privy Council or the sacred
place, he can surrender, why should he be beaten like this?
However, these words were too detrimental to the majesty of the city lord, and
he could only cry in his heart.
"I'll be back!" Kido said bitterly, looking at the roaring west. After all,
the green hills are left, and they are not afraid of running out of firewood.
These guys who are more vicious than robbers are not even willing to send a
messenger. The ghost knows if they will have more brutal behavior after they
capture the city. People in the city will die when they die, and the Kido
family can't bet on it.
