Honglou, I became Jia Lian?Fortunately, there is a system!

Chapter 209 The Naval Battle Ends and Continues to Advance!
On the vast sea, the huge combined western fleet has fallen into chaos. It originally planned to rush into the sky to follow its own fourth-level faith knights and defeat the third-level knights of the Daqing air combat team in one fell swoop. Seeing that the situation is not good First there was a rout.

The innate masters of Daqing's side immediately acted accordingly, grabbed the tails of these third-tier knights, and started chasing and killing them.

The other 600 or so pseudo-innate warriors began bombarding the warships of the Western United Fleet on the sea with long-range attack martial arts such as splitting palms according to the original plan.

The musketeers on the enemy ship also aimed at the pseudo-innate strongman, and fired a burst of guns in the smog. It's just that although such an attack can threaten the fighters in the acquired realm, it is not good for those who have already condensed true energy and protectors. For a pseudo-innate warrior with strong body energy, it can only be regarded as a waste.

Coupled with the Western muskets of this era, even the flintlock guns are not very accurate.Unless they are hit by dozens or hundreds of projectiles in a very short period of time, the pseudo-innate warriors don't even need to go up to the sky to recover.

The palm prints or fist prints condensed with gangster energy are like small "Tathagata Palms", bombarding the battleships of the Western United Fleet non-stop, and there are more pseudo-innate warriors who are accustomed to using weapons. Qi, a move with more obvious lethality, quickly achieved a terrifying kill rate.

Soon, the western navy, whose psychological quality was generally superior to that of the army, also began to show signs of collapse. This was due to the fact that as they fired guns in bursts, the smoke enveloped the entire sea area, blocking most of their vision.

It was precisely because the gunpowder smoke blocked the line of sight that the masts of many main battleships began to break after three or five shots in a row, and the canvas above the masts was the hardest hit.

Fortunately, after noticing this situation, the pseudo-innate warriors all tacitly began to restrain their attacking vigor a little bit, and slowed down the rhythm of their shots, trying to place their attacks on densely populated areas of the enemy.

After all, these warships on the sea below will be their trophies in the future. Now the indiscriminate bombing is a pleasure for a while, and if the repair costs too much in the future, the general will be scolded.

Even so, the number of broken warships below has reached nearly 40 in such a short period of time, which is close to one-third of all warships in the Western United Fleet.

As soon as the tempo of the pseudo-innate warriors slowed down, the bombing density suddenly dropped by an order of magnitude. The commanders on the enemy warships who were caught in separate battles immediately noticed this with their rich experience, and they all launched pseudo-innate warriors almost at the same time. This is the judgment of the warrior that the "ammunition" is insufficient.

These commanders unanimously began to crazily boost the morale of their subordinates, and organized a counterattack with all their strength. For a while, the projectiles fired into the sky from the ships below became dense again.

But after that, Daqing's pseudo-innate warrior group did not exhaust themselves as they expected, but instead maintained the bombardment at a precise and slightly slow frequency.

In this way, the Western United Fleet carried their lives for another full 3 minutes. The more than 600 pseudo-innate warriors were like 600 ultra-modern bombers with incomparable dexterity but endless ammunition. The sky was plowed over and over again.

Finally, when the casualty rate of certain battleships that were already somewhat unsupportable before reached an astonishing 30% or more, a collapsed musketeer aimed his gun at his own commander.

"bump!!!"

After a shot blasted the officer's head, the collapsed musketeer quickly tore off his white inner shirt, tied it to the gun in his hand, and waved it desperately towards the sky.

"I surrender! We surrender!"

The gunshot and shout made the entire warship silent for an instant. The musketeers on the deck looked at each other for a long time, and they all quietly watched the collapsed musketeer shout hoarsely. shouted.

"Snapped!"

The long firecracker in the hand of another musketeer who was watching slipped to the ground and made a loud noise, which finally brought the Western soldiers on the deck back to their senses.

The next moment, the neat "We surrender!" resounded in the sky...

Afterwards, such a voice spread like a virus to two, four, and eight... Not long after, almost all the warships of the Western United Fleet raised white flags.

Although the Daqing quasi-innate warrior group in the sky couldn't understand the meaning of the words shouted by the Western devils below, the act of raising the white flag was an international practice. After a little hesitation, they all stopped their downward bombardment moves .

……

After sinking several main warships that were still stubbornly resisting and confirming that all the remaining warships of the Western United Fleet surrendered, the Nanyang Fleet slowly approached here.

And 600 pseudo-innate warriors were scattered on the deck of the battleship of the Western United Fleet, and all the enemy soldiers who surrendered were ordered to kneel on the deck with their hands up and wait for their punishment.

Next, the work of accepting the captured warships and prisoners was handed over to the Nanyang Fleet, which had been wandering behind the battlefield and had never participated in the battle.

Fortunately, they have already adapted to their identity as a logistics team, and they didn't complain about it at all, instead they were quite excited.

After all, who doesn't like their side to win a battle, and it's still a profitable victory.

At this time, the innate masters who scattered and pursued the third-order knight groups in Western countries also began to return one after another.

Liu Changgong's big move to defeat the fourth-order faith knight had already consumed more than one-third of the strength in his body, and he needed to guard the formation, so he didn't attack together.

After all, the opponent is a strong player of the same level. Although the combat strength of one's own side is twice that of the enemy's, but because the western knights are only focused on fleeing, it is difficult for Daqing's innate masters to keep them, and the results are few.

In total, only two Tier [-] knights were killed, and a seriously injured Tier [-] Priest was brought back...

The work of receiving the prisoners and spoils of war took nearly three hours to complete the preliminary arrangement, mainly because the number of prisoners was huge, although they had already been terrified by today's tragic killing.

However, dealing with nearly 100 surrendered soldiers from Western countries on more than [-] warships, as well as countless dead and miserable corpses and seriously injured soldiers on the battleships still consumed a lot of energy of the Nanyang Fleet.

After a long time, the huge and almost bloated fleet set sail again, but the target was deflected. They chose to approach a small port belonging to the Forou people to repair and replenish.

Although this encounter started quickly and ended quickly, most of Daqing's high-level martial artist team, especially the quasi-innate level warriors, had already consumed more than half of their body's true energy, and some warriors had consumed more than [-]%.

They all need a stable environment to replenish their energy and adjust their breath to recover, otherwise, even if they arrive in Batavia, they will have almost no fighting power at all.

In addition, the scale of the Nanyang Fleet at this time is indeed too large. Many captured Western warships have been bombarded with serious damage, but people are reluctant to give up. At this time, Daqing's shipbuilding capabilities are indeed still inferior to Western ships. The countries can only be followed by cables and chains.

In this way, the speed of the voyage will naturally be greatly slowed down, and when the destination is reached, it will already be sunset.

Facing the sudden arrival of the Nanyang Fleet, this small port city of Forou raised the highest level of vigilance. Although it was useless, it at least showed their unwelcome attitude.

But in the face of the request of nearly 200 warships from the Nanyang Fleet to dock, the three or five 6-pound and 12-pound guns on the Forou port defense fort really did not dare to fire.

The huge and bloated Nanyang Fleet crowded this small port of the Forou people, and even nearly one-third of the ships were moored outside the port, temporarily connected tightly by cables and iron cables.

Fortunately, the Nanyang Fleet did not make extravagant attempts to attack the Forou people, but insisted that the Forou people sell a batch of supplies to their own side at market prices.

The Forou people tremblingly agreed, and completed the request very quickly. The Nanyang Fleet also kept its promise and started repairing inside and outside the port.

As the supplies of wine and meat were delivered to each ship, the atmosphere of the soldiers of the Nanyang Fleet became lively in an instant. Although the journey had not yet been completed, they had won the battle and reached a safe zone. It was natural to celebrate a little bit.

Just to prevent accidents, meat and vegetables are enough, but each person is only allowed to drink a small bowl of alcohol.Even so, the faces of all Daqing soldiers were filled with joyful smiles that night.

Even the captives who surrendered from Western countries were not abused, and each was given a portion of food that could fill them up.

These captives had been terrified by the terrible Daqing people during the day. Thinking about the way our side had treated the surrendered people of color in the past, they naturally didn't dare to ask for more.

After passing the screening, the Nanyang Fleet interrogated several surviving senior officers of the Western United Fleet at night.

Only then did we know that during the time when the Nanyang Fleet and Luzon were assembled for training, the English, Dutch, French, and the remaining Castiles chose to form an alliance.

The combined fleet that encountered the Nanyang Fleet today is already composed of more than 90% of the main warships of these four companies in the Far East.

The two fourth-level knights of faith came from England and the Holy See of the Vatican respectively. The knight who was cut off by Liu Changgong with a right arm and fled in embarrassment was from a branch of the English royal family.

In this time period, England is about to start the industrial revolution, and the main body "Jenny Textile Machine" named "Yongji Textile Machine" by Jia Lian will appear more than ten years later.

Afterwards, improving the steam engine and opening up the "Steam Age" will also start in England. It is also in this era that English talents will truly take over the declining Castiles and become the new empire on which the sun never sets!
During this period, only England and the Holy See had the ability to send a fourth-level faith knight to Tianzhu (Far East).

England is because of Tianzhu, an important colony with a huge population (cheap labor force) second only to Daqing, and the Holy See is to consolidate its faith rule in the Far East.

But now the fourth-order knight belonging to England is disabled, and the knight from the Holy See was forced to blew himself up by Jia Lian. The strongest military power of the Western countries in the Far East was completely lost in one fell swoop!
After this war, at least for a short period of time, the Western countries in the Far East became a paper tiger that could be easily broken.

It's not that the governors of the Western countries in the Far East made mistakes in their decisions, on the contrary, their decisions were extremely decisive and correct.The only thing is that they misestimated the strength of the Nanyang Fleet and the [Jia Lian Legion].

In fact, if you think about it, if the top-level force of the fourth-order knights mobilized by the Western countries is doubled, then Daqing's side may be really difficult.

Although [Qinglongzhiyu] and Liu Changgong rely on the accumulation of the "game world" to burst out with all their strength, they are sure to kill an opponent of the same level in seconds, but there is no doubt that they will fall into a hard fight in the future .

And this will add infinite variables to the subsequent battles, and even the Nanyang Fleet in the rear may be destroyed.

There is no need to doubt that the western countries at this time must have this strength, but these countries that burn, kill, looting and raging half of the world need to guard too much territory, and it is actually very big to have two fourth-tier combat forces in the Far East. Exaggerated.

After discussing with several high-ranking generals of the Nanyang Fleet, Jia Lian's second soul made the decision and decided to rest overnight, and then continue to march towards Batavia with the prisoners tomorrow morning.

Since the forces of the Western countries in the Far East have chosen to form an alliance and fight against Daqing without declaration, Jia Lian will not be polite, and naturally wants to pursue the victory!
The soldiers in the fleet enjoyed the food in turn, and the celebration gradually quieted down until late at night.

The next day, the orange-red sun, which was born at the beginning, jumped out of the boundary between the sea and the sky, and the entire Nanyang Fleet suddenly woke up!
After a night of recuperation, all the high-level fighters have returned to their condition. Although some of them are not in perfect condition, there is still time for them to continue to adjust their breathing during the next voyage. Presumably, everyone will be at their peak when they arrive in Batavia status.

The huge Nanyang Fleet began to slowly sail out of the port of the Forou people in an orderly manner. Although most of the warships in the fleet had traces of war damage, the huge size still made the Forou people look sideways.

Although they roughly guessed that the Nanyang Fleet that docked in the middle of yesterday evening was definitely something they couldn't afford to provoke, it wasn't until today's daytime that Forou finally realized how irresistible it was.

This made the city lord of Forou people and other high-level people feel very lucky that they did not rashly choose to attack yesterday...

Next, the Nanyang Fleet is only a few hundred nautical miles away from Batavia. After yesterday's naval battle, the combat power of Batavia City must have been greatly weakened by this time.

It is very likely that the soldiers of the Nanyang Fleet will be able to spend the night of the day after tomorrow in the city of Batavia, the destination of this expedition.

And taking advantage of the fact that the armies of the four most powerful Western countries in the Far East have been hit hard this time, after taking down Batavia, which is guarding Malacca, Jia Lian's first strategic goal of opening the sea will be completed!

From then on, he could even take advantage of the situation and leave most of the affairs in Manila to the members of the Jia family, and he only needed to send someone to do a good job of supervision.

The main energy of [Jia Lian Legion] will also be placed in Batavia City, even Dahei and Zhang Shun will be dispatched to guard this place with Liu Changgong and [Blue Dragon Jade] for a long time to prevent counterattacks from Western countries.
