Chapter 1536： Sea mutation

The armored ship painted with the Tamron pattern is not a multi-masted sailing ship in the ordinary sense. It also has multiple masts on it, but only half of the sails are raised on the masts. Obviously, it is not pure wind. Besides, the wind on the sea is flat tonight, even if the full sail is raised, it is not at the current speed. Its power comes from six huge water wheels on both sides of the ship. Each water wheel is as big as a round table. The water waves are moved between the rotating blades, pushing the iron-clad boat forward. Through the vanes, it can be seen that a thick axle at the back leads directly into the hull, and the axle connected to the hull turned out to be a set of complex chain axle machines. Through the upper deck of the ship, yelling sounds can be heard from above.

"Tread on a little, you skinny monkeys!"

In the enclosed cabin above, the smell of sweat and sea water mixed together. The cabins were brightly lit, and three rows of slaves on each side were constantly stepping on pedals. These pedals drive the chain shaft machines below, so that the water wheels on both sides of the hull spin fast. There were seven or eight overseers in the cabin, all holding long and thorny whips in their hands. Which slave stepped on slowly was just a whip.

One of the overseers snorted: "Give me work well, otherwise there will be no food tomorrow." He is the chief overseer of this power room, and whether it is a supervisor or a slave, he is an Oriental with yellow skin and black hair. The foreman yelled a few words, then walked to the passage and stepped up on a squeaky wooden ladder. Open the upper door. Behind the door is another level of cabin. Soldiers in iron armor are shouting and running back and forth. They push a long and flat wooden boat to the front and line up. The bow of each wooden boat is made of iron. Wrapped, the bow is carved into the shape of a dragon's head, and black iron pipes protrude from the dragon's mouth, like a pocket artillery.

Each boat has six seats with two paddles on it, which seems to be light and fast.

The chief foreman continued to go up and passed a total of three cabins, each with different functions and personnel. Finally he came to the deck and was stopped by a bear-like strong man: "Tell you slaves to hurry up, King Pingxi is already impatient."

The supervisor said in a hurry, "I know, Lord Luo."

The officer named Luo hummed and left, with torches on both sides of the deck, and a soldier was pushing a red-painted dragon-head cannon to the front of the ship. Boxes of shells were carried out from the warehouse and sent to the bow by Lux. The officer walked to the bow of the ship. There was a wooden building on the bow, and he went up to the wooden building. A man stood on the platform protruding from the building in front. The man turned his back to the officer, dressed in iron-colored fur, wearing a high crown, and a red silk ribbon floating around the crown. The officer knelt behind his back and said: "Report to the prince that our army is ready for battle. Only wait for the prince to give an order to attack the city."

The man finally turned around.

Under the firelight was a handsome face, even though he was middle-aged, but not old-fashioned. No wrinkles can be seen on the jade-like face, it is obviously well maintained, with sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, lips tightly pressed, and the whole person reveals an extraordinary temperament.

His body is a battle armor of the same color as the fur cloak, but the armor is very oriental, embellished with bright red lines, and it is vaguely visible that it is a flying dragon. There was a long sword hanging around his waist, and the handguard and hilt alone were embedded with precious gems, showing the value of this sword.

The man known as the prince smiled freely and said: "What are you waiting for, let us teach these Western barbarians a lesson, if they are willing to submit to our Panlong Empire. If not, they will be levelled. , No matter how well you train these outsiders."

The officer surnamed Luo shouted: "Lead the order."

After a while, there was a gloomy knock on the boat, the knock sounded, and the same knocks on both sides corresponded. The knocking sound continued to spread centered on this iron-clad ship, and after a while, the sea rang like thunder in the thick fog. The intense rhythm is the signal of offense.

With the sound of the drums, huge waves were set off near the iron-clad ship. In the waves splashing, a little fluorescent light on the sea lit up, and suddenly something broke through the water. Under the fire of the ship, it turned out to be a sea snake as big as a sail ship. The sea snake is covered with deep purple scales, two snake eyes are golden and shiny, and there is a snake bone bulge at the center of the eyebrow, like a short and thick single horn. It opened its mouth and screamed, and the dense fog that had wrapped the fleet gradually dissipated. After the dense fog dissipated, a huge fleet appeared on the waters of Ark Harbor. Nearly a hundred iron-clad ships headed towards the harbor. The red dragon artillery that had been pushed to the bow of the ship roared one after another. Boom, cannons roar like thunder, resounding through the night sky of the city, tearing the tranquil night to pieces.

The shells fired out of the Red Dragon Artillery spun rapidly, drawn a parabola on the sea, and landed on the pier or mountain wall. The shells were shattered at the moment of collision, and small shells sputtered from the inside, followed by a series of explosions. Under the simultaneous bombardment of more than a hundred artillery pieces, the cliff facing the sea at Ark Harbor rumbling off. As the angle of the artillery began to rise, the shells fell into the edge of the city, gradually spreading the flames toward the city.

Amid the roar of artillery fire, both sides of the bow of an iron-clad ship opened, revealing the cabin inside, and a deck stretched out from the cabin to connect to the sea. Then the long and long dragon-head boats slid down from the deck and landed on the sea. The soldiers in charge of paddling the paddles vigorously moved the oars, so the dragon-head boats quickly sailed into the harbor in the mountain.

At this time, an army stationed in the port rushed over. The captain saw the face of these dragon-head ships changed, and shouted: "Shoot! Sinking them, you can't let these things get to the shore."

Soldiers squatted on the ground one after another, raising their muskets and firing at the enemy ships entering the harbor, and the gunshots echoed in the hillside of the harbor. The several leading ships in front of them blasted a gap in the bullets, and the soldiers on them were shot dead before they could land. But there were a lot of dragon-head ships behind, and the soldiers on the ship began to fight back. They set up an iron shield, and the shield blocked the bullets of the musket. Then, from behind the shield, muskets came out and fired on the shore. After several rounds of shooting, the Ark Harbor guards were killed and injured.

Soldiers from the east began to land, they quickly disembarked, jumped onto the dock, and after a brief assembly, they began to advance towards the Jingtao Corridor, intending to enter the city through the corridor. Soon, the Deep Sea Lin Ji who was responsible for the safety of the city appeared in front of the invaders, and the two armies fought against each other in the Corridor of Storms.

In Baibao's bedroom, Ruola woke up from her sleep when she heard the sound of guns. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw the fire shining through the window. Her husband Orlando was standing in the doorway, seeming to be talking to the housekeeper Mays. The butler hurriedly left, while Orlando returned to the room, took out a suit of armor, and put it on himself.

"What happened?" Ruola looked at the fire outside the window, her heart beating quickly. The war in the imperial capital is over, and the shadow Principality has already withdrawn its troops. What's more, now the fire is clearly shining on the harbour, and what kind of enemy will attack from the sea.

Orlando said while wearing his armor, "We were attacked, and the enemy came from the sea. Their ships and equipment are the last seen before. They should not be enemies within the empire. I think these invaders should come from the other side of the sea. ."

If La has lived here for a long time, there are also many transoceanic merchants in Ark Harbor. She knows that there is a continent on the other side of the sea, in the far east. There is a powerful human empire on that continent, just like Mr. Long, who was once employed by her brother, from the east. Orientals generally have yellow skin and black hair. They are delicate, elegant and full of mystery. Merchants traveling to and from the sea usually bring oriental spices and tea. Those are tributes to the royal family, and they will not flow into the shops.

But Ruola did not expect that the Orientals not only have spices and tea, they also have artillery and transoceanic warships!

Orlando has put on the armor and took up his father’s iron gun: "I have asked Metz to inform the cathedral. Father Miro and the others are coming back this time. There happens to be a crusader stationed there. I hope Father Miro and them This crusader can be loaned out. But we are the masters of this city, so Ark Harbor needs to be guarded by ourselves. I will go to the pier now to seeYou stay here and command the city defense The team will withdraw the residents. By the way, we have to inform Earl Edward that we may need his power."

Ruola shook her head and said, "I'll go with you, I am also a fighter."

Orlando squatted down and gently touched Ruola's bulging abdomen and said, "Perhaps you used to be a brave warrior, but my dear, you are now our baby's mother. So, do what a mother should do. "

With a kiss on Ruola's forehead, Orlando took the gun and left the bedroom. Ruola sighed and walked to the window. The fire was dazzling outside the window, and although the pier port was not visible from here, Ruola knew that it had become a battlefield.

"Be careful, Orlando," she said softly.

In the small building behind the cathedral, when Miró opened his eyes, the door downstairs cracked. Milo put on his clothes and went downstairs to open the door. Outside the door was a crusader knight. The knight crossed his chest and said, "God bless you, Father Milo, you are fine."

"What happened?"

"We have been attacked. We have just received an emergency report from White Castle, and there has been a fight on the port terminal. The White Castle hopes to use our strength. Captain Willick has already brought a team of people to rush. But he asked us to Take you and Miss Vera away, the carriage is ready, please follow me to the priest."

Milo nodded and took his dog and left with the Cavaliers. The goddess cultivator in the church was also evacuating, only he and Vera got into a carriage. Including the knight, a total of ten knights and twenty soldiers escorted the carriage away. In the carriage, the priest opened the curtains, looked at the people rushing on the street and sighed: "Really, you can't let people sleep well."

Vera next to her rolled her eyes.
