Chapter 1148 Tianxia Maru

Tenkamaru, the flagship of the shogunate, is an old-fashioned dreadnought equipped with six triple-turret guns. Although it is the size of a battleship, the caliber of its main guns is only comparable to that of the cruisers in the royal fleet. However, although it is an old-fashioned battleship, it is the most advanced inn.

Because the name Tenkamaru itself has its own heritage. As early as the third generation of shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu, the first shogunate warship named "Tenkamaru" was built. Its main function was to serve as the shogun's flagship, that is, his inn.

Until now, the name of Tenkamaru has been passed down for many generations. Compared with Tenkamaru, Kaiyo Maru in Nagasaki is the most advanced warship of the shogunate, because Nagasaki is directly facing the threat from the Korean navy. The Tenkamaru stationed in Edo was not replaced with a more advanced warship for cost-saving reasons, but was transformed into a more advanced hotel.

The ship has everything from the general's ice machine, the general's canteen, and the general's wine cellar. The ship's main activity is to stay on the shore and wait for the general's "favor", and it is still the same today. The cannons on the ship are not even as well maintained as the ice machine.

"Oh my God."

On the bridge of Tenkamaru, the shogunate elder, Ii, looked into the distance. Huge waves were rolling between heaven and earth, but these waves had nothing to do with him, and they didn't seem to want to establish any relationship with him. However, the fragmented military situation ahead made him realize that these huge waves did not make the enemy retreat, and the enemy was still approaching step by step.

This is even as unimportant as his name. His last name is Ii, and he is the one with the most fiefs among the retainers of the shogunate. His family produces a lot of beef for the shogun's nourishment. It doesn't matter what his name is or what he does. He just plays a key position in the shogunate politics with the name "Ii".

His influence on the current shogunate is like his relationship to his own name - nothing. Apart from serving as the shogun's elder, known as "rochu", he knows nothing about the shogun's current actions. In fact, he hasn't been to Edo Castle to see the shogun in person for some years.

Tianxia Pills were shaking in the strong wind, the fixed glasses and porcelain plates in the cupboards were crackling, and the wobbly square ice cubes in the ice shaver had been smashed into crushed ice. Everything in the world had nothing to do with them, they were just confusedly sent to an unknown enemy - just like Kaiyang Pills.

The people who gave him the order had no intention of communicating with him, a high-ranking official in the shogunate, but simply moved his position around like a pawn on a chessboard.

Swaying in the strong wind and huge waves, Ii could only grab the handrails in the bridge to keep himself standing. He was unable to give any orders.

At this moment, he realized that in the face of the swaying waves and the unknown powerful enemy, he knew that he was not here to fight, he was just a sacrifice. Just like the "human pillar" in building a house, he was just dedicated to the unknown, just like everyone else on this ship.

Suddenly, he saw a black shadow above his head. The inconspicuous black shadow fell down with a terrifying roar in an instant.

A series of water splashes rose up around the Tenka Maru, and the entire ship was almost blown away by the shock wave. In the huge waves, there was a roiling flame, which was an incendiary bomb.

As an old battleship, Tenka Maru's turrets were not even completely sealed, and some of them were even open. In such sea conditions, these turrets had long lost their combat effectiveness. The shock wave just now made the sailors exposed on the deck flee back to the cabin desperately, and the entire ship had lost the last bit of combat effectiveness.

"Stride fire, missed. Automatic calibration in progress, new firing parameters have been sent back."

In the high-altitude gusts, a jet fighter spewing flames was traveling in the wind. Although the surrounding gusts had torn the clouds apart, it was not a big deal for the Qigong practitioner. His right hand, which was controlling the joystick, swung along with the airflow in the gusts, and with the help of the onboard Tianyi Guiren, a stable image was taken, and the image was as stable as a gimbal.

"Huh~" He drank a sip of hot tea with his free left hand, screwed the lid of the teacup with one hand, and started eating chocolate. Although it was not difficult for a Qigong practitioner to deal with this situation, it would indeed consume physical strength, so he had to replenish some energy in time.

The warship he observed below was like a leaf being beaten by huge waves. The formation cast by Xu Fu was ineffective against the imperial court, but only effective against those who obeyed his orders. But Xu Fu himself did not seem to care about all this, and the ineffective strong wind and huge waves showed no sign of weakening. "Tsk tsk tsk tsk." He looked at the warship below. The data had been transmitted back, and his fighter plane was actually equipped with weapons. However, the mounted Lingsha bombs were not used to attack warships, so he was just conducting reconnaissance here. His bombs would not be dropped until Shangluo himself sent an order.

——"Lord Ii, it's a straddle shot!"

The sailors on the bridge also observed the splashes of the shells. Shells appeared in front, behind, left and right of the battleship at the same time, which meant that the enemy could hit it. However, because Tenka Maru was shaken left and right by the disorderly waves, the shells were deflected.

"Where are the enemies?!!!"

"I don't know! The shells came from the clouds, and we can't see the direction at all!"

"Then fight back! Even if it's towards the clouds, we must fire the shells!"

"The artillery has withdrawn! There's no response from the turrets, they've all run away!"

Jing Yi kicked the bulkhead: He finally couldn't bear it anymore: We have no meaning here! We... We just provided a performance! Even just a side show of the performance! This is a trap! "

He ordered to the bridge: "This is a trap! Abandon ship! Abandon ship!"

In an instant, the world fell into silence, and only black and white remained around. Among the two colors, only the sailor who had just reported to him still maintained his original color and was even still moving.

"It's you! It turns out that you are the killer on this ship!"

"You have truly let that Lord down. You have betrayed his trust."

"Why do you want us to die? Who are you? Why can you give orders in the name of the general?!"

"You, ask too many questions. In the silence, the sailor swung his sword at a swift speed—"

With a clang, a gust of wind blocked the two people.

"Oh my, I am such a kind person. I have to save someone when I run into this kind of situation."

Fu Yuanshan walked out from the shaved ice machine, holding shaved ice in one hand and a small spoon in the other. "Well, this shaved ice has a very dense texture, and the jam is very tasty. Where is your ice cream machine? I want to taste it. You don't want to tell me? Forget it, I'll find it myself. Well, you can continue, just don't kill anyone. Say whatever you want, I'm listening."
