Chapter 485 How many tens of thousands of enemy troops are there?
Chapter 485 How many tens of thousands of enemy troops are there?
Shuibo County, the lobby of the fortress.
The six heads of the family gathered together, surrounding two huge maps, which clearly corresponded to Qinghe County and Heishan County.
"The River God has likely been murdered, and the culprit is likely one of these two parties," Gongsun Qiu said grimly. "This is such a great humiliation that we must avenge."
Whenever he recalled the scene of that night, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Who on earth dared to kidnap the river god right under their noses and pretend to be the river god to feed themselves urine?
If he were to catch him, he would plunge this damn thing into a water dungeon and let thousands of leeches suck all the blood out of it.
"Since we can't find the murderer, we should treat them all as murderers. In my opinion, we should first send troops to Qinghe County, and then to Heishan County. Don't let any of them escape!"
Long Er's expression was equally sinister. He drank the most urine that night, and he still felt a little disgusted when he thought about it.
"Qinghe County is located downstream, which is conducive to our rapid deployment of troops. I also think it is better to start from here!" Magu agreed.
"Qinghe County now has a new seventh-level person. Should we consider it again?" Lu Zhiyao said.
Xiao Suchen had just broken through to the seventh level not long ago, and the news spread like wildfire, and all the bosses knew about it.
"He just broke through to the seventh level. My elder brother and second brother are both at the seventh level. What's there to be afraid of?"
Zhu Gang obviously did not take the extraordinary people from Qinghe County seriously.
"Those bastards in Qinghe County killed one of my hall masters. This revenge must be avenged!" Han Liuniang said hatefully.
There was almost no objection among the crowd, and they unanimously passed the resolution to send troops to Qinghe County. Then several people began to formulate corresponding water battle tactics based on their respective troop deployments and the hydrological situation.
"Hehe, water battles are our forte. Those bastards from Qinghe County should just clean their necks and wait for the consequences."
After some discussion, the six leaders felt that conquering Qinghe County was as easy as taking candy from a bag. They were even thinking about whether they could directly attack the county seat of Qinghe County and plunder it.
"From Shuibo Fort to Qinghe County City, we can break through in less than a day. We will kill our way down the river and no one can stop us!" Gongsun Qiu made a bold statement.
Before the other leaders could speak, a panicked bandit came trotting in, knelt on the ground and shouted:
"Oh no! The enemy is coming!"
"What?"
"The enemy is coming, all the way from downstream!"
The heads of the families were a little slow to react for a moment.
Downstream?
Isn’t that Qinghe County?
They were still discussing how to capture Qinghe County, so why did the other party just come and kill them?
Gongsun Qiu snorted coldly and looked at the pirate. "How many enemy boats have arrived? Are they approaching Huanxi Pass?"
The pirate's face flushed red, "Huanxi Pass... has been breached."
"what?"
The six heads stood up at the same time, their faces suddenly changing.
"No... not only Huanxi Pass, but also Wangshan Pass and Tielao Pass, they've all... all been lost!"
The pirate looked panicked, with fear in his eyes.
"what?!"
Huanxi Pass, Wangshan Pass, and Tielao Pass are the three major passes in Shuibo County. Once these three passes are breached, the enemy will no longer have any constraints and can even march straight in and attack their city.
The development of waterways is also a double-edged sword. While it facilitates transportation, it also greatly reduces the strategic depth. Once the three major passes are breached, the base camp will be within the enemy's attack range.
Thinking of this, the six leaders were completely unable to remain calm. "Enemy army, how many people are there? How many ships? What are those spies doing? We were completely unaware of the enemy's approaching army, and we were unexpectedly attacked all the way and directly broke through three passes!"
The pirate lowered his head even lower. "The enemy has a large ship coming. Maybe... maybe there are several hundred soldiers?"
"a ship?"
"A few hundred sergeants?"
Several of the bosses didn't believe it.
"Do you take us for fools?"
With a large ship and hundreds of soldiers, could they break through three barriers and fight their way to the fortress?
Wuwuwu——
At this moment, there were sudden horn sounds outside the city, which was the signal of enemy attack.
"Humph, you dare to come to our city to kill us? Then don't leave."
Gongsun Qiu took the lead and walked out of the tent, followed closely by Long'er and others.
"Humph, it's just a boat, I can just kick it..."
When everyone arrived at the dock, they saw a giant ironclad ship from afar, and they all fell into incredible stupor.
On the water, the ironclad ship looked like a giant steel elephant, and the black-sailed boats driven by the pirates looked like small ants.
Boom boom boom!
Flames erupted all over the giant elephant's body, and it fired shells at the ant-like black-sailed boats. Several of the boats were sunk immediately, and the pirates fell into the water screaming.
On the other hand, the javelins thrown and arrows shot by the pirates were like tickling to the ironclad ships.
The ironclad ship accelerated, and the powerful impact directly broke through the pirates' battle formation, and dozens of black-sailed boats were smashed in half.
A warship crushed an army of navy, it was simply a crushing defeat.
"Damn it! Too arrogant! Brothers, follow me aboard!"
Gongsun Qiu and Long Er leaped into the air, tapped their toes on the wood chips on the river surface several times, and flew to the front of the warship.
I didn’t think it was that exaggerated when I was watching the warships from the river bank before, but now that I’m closer, I find it really terrifying.
How could anyone build such a giant ship?
This giant ship is estimated to be more than five meters tall. Its hull is covered with iron armor and has cannons mounted on both sides. It looks like a giant beast armed to the teeth.
"Kill the people on board and seize this battleship!"
They are all commanders of the navy, how could they not know the strategic significance of this giant ship.
This ship is equivalent to a complete navy.
Tatata!
Gongsun Qiu, Long Er and Zhu Gang, three warriors, were like three strong and clever monkeys, quickly climbing up the warship that was more than ten meters high.
"There's a supernatural aura on the deck. Let's rush over and kill one person together!"
The three of them cooperated with each other tacitly. Even when they sensed the extraordinary aura, they did not retreat. Instead, they were faintly excited.
pedal!
The three of them used their arms and feet to exert force at the same time, leaping high like three cannonballs and quickly rising to the same height as the deck.
Their blood and energy surged, and they wanted to kill the other extraordinary person as quickly as possible, but they didn't expect that a bright silver light suddenly appeared on the deck!
brush!
Chen Changfan held the Moon-Cutting Sword in his hand and swung it horizontally, which had been accumulated for a long time. A silver light appeared, as if it split the sky and the earth apart.
What a quick knife!
All the hairs on Gongsun Qiu's body exploded in an instant. He felt an extremely terrifying sense of crisis coming towards him. This was the first time he had felt such a strong sense of life and death crisis since he entered the seventh level.
He even had a premonition that if he didn't dodge the knife, he might die!
Get out of the way!
Must avoid!
