Country and Beauty
C639 Mediterranean Sea (Lower)
Actually, at a time like this, Zhou Yang was definitely not easy to deal with. now knew that at this time, the Roman Empire was the same as the Great Qin. Through civil war, they could unify the entire country, then rule the surrounding areas and shake the entire world.
More importantly, the Qin State and the Roman Empire's armies had gone through hundreds of intense battles, and the surviving hundred of elites, whether it was their tactical skills, fighting skills, or mental fortitude, were all extremely strong. This was not an unequal battle, but a battle where they were evenly matched, where they were evenly matched!
The commander of this Roman fleet was Viscount Zhu Lian. In ancient China, the marquis was the second class of nobility. Only a member of the royal family or a minister of the borderlands had the right to own it. This marquis and China's corresponding marquis belonged to the royal family! Zhu Lian, the nephew of Constantine, was a man of letters and talent who, during the period of turmoil in the Roman Empire after Constantine's death, put an end to inflation in Rome, stabilized the situation of Roman unrest, and made considerable military gains. He succeeded in invading Persia, occupying the southern part of the Iraqi capital, but he eventually died in the midst of a confrontation with Persia!
Zhu Lian stood at the bow of the ship, in high spirits. He was a man who was born to love war, he wore a perfectly straight set of clothes, and asked puzzledly: "This is the Great Qin's fleet that makes the Emperor feel troubled? Are they afraid of our Roman army? " In Zhu Lian's eyes, Zhou Yang's strategy was completely up to anyone who wants to. The wind sailboat naturally could not reverse the car on the surface of the sea like a car, and similarly it could not be like a tank. The turret could spin 360 degrees at will, and on the way back, the Qin Army's battleship also did not have any chance to retaliate. Zhu Lian mocked Qin Army who didn't understand the basic tactics of naval warfare, and ordered the fleet to speed up. In this era, Roman battleship s were a mixture of sail and pulp hands, adding that the Roman battleship's mechanics were reasonable, the mixed power and battleship's speed was faster than the Qin Army's normal sailing ships.
Soon after, Zhu Lian could see that when the Qin Army's fleet was retreating, their formation was strict. The helmsman was adept at maneuvering and was in an orderly fashion. Moreover, every step he took was accompanied by a hidden, insidious trap!
Although Zhu Lian was young at the moment, he did not have much of a halo around him, so he did not dare underestimate his opponent.
In the era of the sail, the speed and combat power of the Roman battleships were not much weaker than that of the Qin Army's. The Ancient Roman battleships could sail at a maximum speed of 13 or 14 knots when the wind blew, which was something that the large size of the Qin Army's battleships couldn't do. Among Zhou Yang's combined fleet, there were only two battleships, the "Han Wu Emperor" and "Qin Shi Huang Emperor".
"Hey, boys, work hard. Let those yellow monkeys see God!" When Zhu Lian saw Qin Army retreating, he felt that it was Qin Army who was afraid of them. Unexpectedly, in Zhu Lian's heart, his own strength was far greater than Qin Army's.
Gradually, the chase in the sea came to an end. The Qin Army's fleet who did not have the advantage in speed finally entered the range of the Roman fleet's crossbow gun.
"All soldiers of the Roman warriors, open your cannons! Let these yellow monkeys have a taste of the dangers of our crossbow gun! They definitely haven't seen the crossbow gun, this is a clever invention of our Roman! " Zhu Lian gracefully threw his hat back, he was as excited as a tourist!
"Dong, dong, dong!" saw that the upper deck of the Great Emperor Han Wu was unlucky enough to be struck by a few stone bullets. These stone bullets, which weighed twenty to thirty kilograms, carried a huge inertia and smashed onto the deck of the "Great Emperor Han Wu", which was made of wrapped iron. It was fortunate that the iron sheet was firmly fixed on the inside of the deck, preventing the stone from breaking through the deck!
Zhou Yang frowned: "This Roman's crossbow gun, is indeed powerful. If it was a wooden boat, it wouldn't be able to withstand this kind of attack!"
"General, I'm afraid we won't be so lucky with our other warships. Once they hit it, the consequences will be unthinkable!"
"Humph!" Zhou Yang coldly snorted, "With just the Roman's crossbow gun, they will definitely not be able to do anything to us. They are too naive to hope that these few crossbow gun can defeat us!"
At this moment, a wind sailboat on the left side of the ship was hit, which coincidentally hit a spot above the water line. On the left side of the ship, there was a hole of nearly 30 centimeters in diameter, and the battleship slowly entered the water!
"Well done!" who had just finished his excitement was confused, logically speaking, it would not be easy to hit this area, "Why is the Qin Army's warship not sinking?" Zhu Lian was confused!
What he didn't know was that when the Chinese were building the ships, in order to resist the reefs, the entire hull was divided into several watertight chambers, especially the battleships. Unless all three of the watertight chambers were broken, or if thirteen of them were more than half filled, they wouldn't sink!
After watching for a while, Zhu Li said in disappointment, "Our attack power is far from enough. Soldiers, hurry up and launch all the stone bullets. Even if we smash them, we will also sink them!"
After another round of crossbow gun bombardment, the unlucky Qin Army warship was finally struck on its rudder, losing its ability to turn. Following which, the battleship which could not dodge nimbly was hit by the Roman crossbow gun and lost its power!
"Quick, charge! We want to capture this battleship!" Zhu Lian was very curious, why did the battleship that had been shot dozens of times still not sink? He had to see what was going on!
At this time, Zhu Lian had also completed his first tactical action. The Blade Fleet in the middle suddenly made an emergency turn and swept towards the side of the Qin Army, allowing the Wind Blade Roman battleship to surround and cover the eight battleships on the left flank of the Qin Army!
Just at this time, the eight warships of the Qin Army that were surrounded by Roman battleship did not panic, but instead formed a circular Formation, the warships' stern area was all towards the inside, the bow of the warship was pointed outwards!
"Attention all cannons, prepare to strike!" 80% gunpowder, bloom bullet prepare! " As one of the tyrants under Zhou Yang, Xu Le, who was born in the water squid, was an elder of the Qin Army's water army. Xu Le Chong, who was barely a year old, said to the signal soldiers beside him, "Inform the various battleships, don't be in a hurry to launch. Wait for them to come closer and listen to my orders!"
Zhu Lian looked forward to his beautiful fantasies. He fantasized about capturing all of this ship using the method of jumping and fighting to see what the Qin Army, who traversed the Indian Ocean, was truly relying on! In particular, why did their ship get shot so many times but not sink!
Within five hundred steps, Zhu Lian ordered the crossbow gun hands of the various Roman battleship s to change the stone bullets into even smaller five kilograms of bullets. Because the stone bullets were light in weight and had a long range, they weren't harmful to the ship's hull, and he didn't want to get his hands on a pile of broken pieces of wood!
Tens of crossbow gun s aimed at the eight warships in the encirclement and launched. * Bang * * Bang * * Bang! * * Bang! * A large amount of wood shavings flew everywhere, and the Qin Army s on the deck were all smashed to death by the stone bullets!
At this time, the various warships of the Roman battleship were already prepared to jump up to fight. The crow beak had already started to operate the crane arm, grabbing onto the hook and preparing to grab the Qin Army warship!
However, at this moment, Xu Le yelled: "Hit his mother with all your might for me!"
Eight battle fleets, forty Buddhist cannons, eight main cannons, all shot out scarlet flames. The Roman battleship that was ready to jump out and fight did not expect that the Qin Army would do this and was caught off guard! Xu Le, along with the two emperors' 30 battleships and 18 cannons all bombarded Zhu Lian's flagship at the same time. No matter how ignorant a general was, he knew the principle of capturing the King, so Zhu Lian became the main focus of attention. With 18 cannons fired consecutively, the Roman soldiers on the deck were like dumplings that were about to jump up, they were all shot down into the sea by the Qin Army's cannons!
"Just like this, hit him hard!" Xu Le felt his blood boil. The pleasure of wantonly killing was better than words!
Zhu Lian's flagship was quickly drowned by the smoke, the surrounding Roman battleship, for some reason, became chaotic! A group of dragons without a leader!
His personal guards saw the red fireball flying towards him and quickly pressed him down. A few loyal guards used their lives to protect him, and when Zhu Lian saw that his flagship was about to sink, he immediately moved!
Just at the moment when Zhu Lian jumped onto the lifeboat, the biggest battleship out of the 92 large five-masted ships in the entire Roman fleet started to sink diagonally.
Zhu Lian was so frustrated that he couldn't even steal a chicken a long time ago, causing him to feel extremely depressed in his heart! … … (TL: UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU))
Just at that moment, Zhu Lian realised that the Qin Army who was retreating at full speed had turned their heads towards them, and those scarlet red fireballs actually flew over from five to six miles away. It was too scary!
"Oh my God, what's going on? Who can tell you what's going on?" Zhu Lian was going crazy!
"Viscount!" We are surrounded by the Qin people, let's not care about what's going on. We should quickly leave this place. Zhu Lian's cousin, Duke Tius said!
"Boom!" An explosion sounded from the side of the ship. As the cannonball had coincidentally struck the middle of the five masts, the thick masts suddenly smashed towards Zhu Lian and the rest.
"Damn it!" Zhu Lian escaped another calamity. With his face covered in dirt, he looked at the main mast that had smashed onto the deck in shock.
Zhu Lian was very clear that if he lost this large portion of the Roman Navy, his uncle, who was also the Constantine the Great, would definitely kill him without family.
But, even if Zhu Lian wanted to retreat, how could the warships surrounding him let him go so easily?!
The Suez Canal was simply too narrow. If they fought in the sea, the Roman battleship would be able to retreat to the Mediterranean Sea as soon as they saw that the situation was not good. Even if the Qin Army wanted to pursue and kill them, the Roman fleet could only do so in a heroic manner. They could leave behind a small portion of their warships and escape back to that place with a large number of their warships.
To Zhou Yang whose appetite was about to increase, this was obviously not a wise choice!
Therefore, Zhou Yang retreated. He led the Roman navy to a wide and experienced sea area, and while the Roman navy was leaving the canal, he ordered a small fleet to take the opportunity to take down the rear route of the Roman fleet. It had completely blocked Zhu Lian's way!
With regards to the Roman fleet that was trapped in a bitter battle, Zhu Lian didn't ask anymore. Just as Zhu Lian was sitting on the medium grade battleship and was running towards the Suez Canal, he suddenly saw a large ship moored alone at the mouth of the Suez Canal.
At the moment, the Qin Army only had two armoured cannons powered by steam engines. The "Qin Shi Huang Emperor" was waiting for them!
"My fleet is finished." Zhu Lian sighed.
"Not only is our fleet finished, but the Mediterranean of Rome is also finished!" "Without our invincible Roman ships, how would we defend our Mediterranean Sea?"
Chang'an, Imperial Palace, snow-white jade skin, the chest and buttocks are convex and concave. Xie Fei looked at the former Princess of An Xi who had just come out of the bath. She was covered in a light veil which faintly revealed her figure, giving off a very different feeling to others.
What a charming monster. Xie Fei realised that his little brother, who had been sleeping for a long time, actually had a reaction!
"How strange!" Xie Fei sighed inwardly!
Suddenly, Ai Site bent his body and stretched his head towards Xie Fei, he opened his mouth to take in the half-asleep, gluttonous worm, the tiger's death was still there. Being provoked by the tongue of a peacock, Xie Fei once again shook his heart and was about to mount the horse and rush into the battle, but at this time, Shang Guan Zhao Yan said from outside: "Your Majesty, Daoist Ge requests an audience!"
Fortunately, Xie Fei was not King You of the Zhou Empire. For the sake of national affairs, no matter how beautiful a woman was, she had to put it aside. Xie Fei knew that this Ge Hong had always disliked government, and would usually not disturb him. Therefore, Xie Fei could only bitterly give up, and directly prepare for the officials to advance, for Huang Long was stopped, causing Xie Fei to clench his teeth in anger: "Dao Friend Ge, you better give us a reasonable explanation!"
Ge Hong did not understand, so he said, "Your majesty, I've managed to cultivate what you wanted!"
More importantly, the Qin State and the Roman Empire's armies had gone through hundreds of intense battles, and the surviving hundred of elites, whether it was their tactical skills, fighting skills, or mental fortitude, were all extremely strong. This was not an unequal battle, but a battle where they were evenly matched, where they were evenly matched!
