    Chapter 45: Capture the Harbor

    On the vast blue ocean, a white canvas suddenly appeared from the horizon, and then, one white canvas after another, one after another, appeared in the sight of Elena and others on the shore.

    There are so many white sails that they can be compared to the white clouds in the sky. From the center of the field of view to the entire bay and strait, the images of sails one after another continue to advance little by little, like a wave towards the center of Yuri Bay City.  The port is coming.

    The advancing fleet was so huge, so vast, so majestic, and so shocking that all the humans in the central port of the main city of Yuri Bay were stunned by this fleet.

    "this!"

    "this!"

    "What is this?"

    Elena opened her mouth in shock and looked at the continuous white clouds that stretched five kilometers horizontally and occupied the entire Yuri Bay offshore bay in a triangular cone shape.

    "This is the Elantra fleet I formed!"

    Lin Fenghan proudly puffed up his chest and pointed at the hull of the ship slowly appearing under the white clouds, and said proudly: "They came to Yuri Bay Harbor to seek justice for you to escape."

    "you!"

    "you!"

    Elena looked at Lin Fenghan with shock, her eyes suddenly shed tears, and she cried bitterly into Lin Fenghan's arms.

    "alright!"

    "do not Cry!"

    Lin Fenghan gently touched Elena's blond hair and said: "Soon I will make that Mrs. Kelana, Mrs. Red, those who hurt you kneel in front of you, waiting for your punishment."

    "It's him!"

    "it's him!"

    At this moment, a thin middle-aged man with sly eyebrows and a dozen security soldiers pointed at Lin Fenghan and said: "He is the young man who followed Elena to contradict the city lord and his wife last time. It is said that he is Elena  My little lover.¡±

    "Um?"

    "Yi Liuyun!"

    "He is Yi Liuyun!"

    ¡°They look so similar!¡±

    "It's definitely him!"

    ¡­¡­

    More than a dozen soldiers stared at Lin Fenghan seriously. Suddenly, a middle-aged soldier shouted, and the others also shouted excitedly and ran towards Lin Fenghan.

    "He is Yiliuyun! Baron Yilant! Duke Brandt spent 300,000 silver coins to reward him."

    "Brothers, come together! Don't let him run away."

    "catch him!"

    "Surround them!"

    ¡­¡­

    Lin Fenghan turned around and looked coldly at more than a dozen hot-headed soldiers who kept shouting for help. He coldly stretched out his right hand and said: "Elena, let's go!"

    "Vera, remember the bastard who reported the message, and catch him later. Let's go!"

    "yes!"

    "yes!"

    ¡­¡­

    Lin Fenghan pulled Elena and the two maids and quickly boarded the Kamikaze Clipper hidden among the fishing boats next to the port. More than 120 guards around him quickly raised their long bows and fired at the patrols on the shore.  go.

    "Oops!"

    "There are so many people!"

    "what to do?"

    "This inexplicable fleet is still four kilometers away from the port. Let's go back, pack our things and escape!"

    "Now that Yi Liuyun can't be caught, we don't need to make unnecessary sacrifices."

    "You bastard! As long as we catch him, we will be rich, brothers"

    The patrol captain yelled with a long sword and took two steps forward.  A long, sharp arrow pierced his throat.  After a while, he watched the remaining patrol soldiers disperse and run towards the dormitory barracks.

    Aboard the central flagship of the Hailan.  Bonos calmly commanded the fleet.

    "Fengyun 1 to Fengyun 24 are responsible for blocking the inner sea of ??Yuri Bay and covering the rear."

    "Kamikaze Express No. 1 to Kamikaze Express No. 90 are responsible for occupying the central seaport and surrounding coastal areas, paving the way for the vanguard. Cleaning up the enemy."

    "Clippership No. 1 to Clippership No.35 will attack the enemies who launch the attack according to their respective directions, and destroy their warships and sentries in advance."

    "The Hailan flagship and Hailan No. 13 attack the central port lighthouse of Yuri Bay and destroy them."

    "The cargo ships at the rear spread out in three directions according to their respective numbers."

    "yes!"

    "yes!"

    The flag bearer and messenger quickly shouted to the sailors on the mast.  One flag after another?The canvas containing the text was constantly shaking, and the huge fleet slowly dispersed around according to their respective intentions and previously discussed battle plans.

    ¡­¡­

    "Get ready!"

    "Get ready!"

    "Get ready!"

    "Aim!"

    "Aim!"

    "Aim!"

    "Fire!"

    "Fire!"

    "Fire!"

    ¡­¡­

    Boom!

    Boom!

    Boom!

    ¡­¡­

    The battleships Hailan, Hailan 1 to Hailan 13, which were lined up in a row horizontally, were stationary for more than ten minutes and then released the long-prepared cannonballs.

    Huge smoke came from the front of the ship, and all the more than ten ships launched were knocked back several meters by the huge vibration.

    Fourteen huge fireballs flashed with red light, breaking through the resistance of the air and sending out air waves in the air. A few seconds later, they hit the more than 50-meter-high lighthouse built next to the central city port.

    Boom!

    Boom!

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    The shells shattered the surrounding defenses, and four of the 200-pound shells hit the 20-meter-high and 30-meter-high towers of the lighthouse.  In an instant, the lighthouse shook violently, and three to five seconds later.  Bricks and stones, and huge clouds of dust fell from the air.  The huge lighthouse was destroyed by the force of the cannon.

    "good!"

    "Very good!"

    "After taking out the lighthouse, they will no longer be able to see clearly the divisions of our fleet and the ships on the sea. In the short term, it will be difficult for them to build such a tall lighthouse within a year. It will be much easier for us to occupy this place next time.  "

    "Um!"

    ¡­¡­

    Bonos.  Bono dong, Colander and others nodded happily and discussed with a smile.

    The war is still going on, and after the initial panic, a large number of sailors.  The soldiers fled, but a determined group of soldiers still manned the ballistae.  Large trebuchets attacked the naval fleet docked at Elante. After spending an hour, the Elante expeditionary force finally completely occupied all the coasts of the inner sea of ??Yuri Bay.

    At 8 a.m. on March 5, 1921, the usually bustling inner sea port of Yuri Bay was sparsely populated, and the flags of the Elantra army could be seen everywhere planted in various arteries.  Small town, tops of buildings.

    More than 20,000 expeditionary troops gradually disembarked from the ships and took small boats to the outside of Yuri Bay City.

    One kilometer outside the city wall of Yuliwan, Lin Fenghan and Ke Lande.  Bonos and others stood in the open space at the street corner and looked towards the city wall of Yuri Bay.

    "The city wall of Yuri Bay is eight meters high. The city defense is strong and the harbor is nearly two kilometers away from the city. Can our cannon accurately hit this place two kilometers away?"

    Ali touched his chin and said in thought: "Our bronze naval gun is fixed on the ship, which is equivalent to a powerful mobile fort. If the water surface is still, just adjust the angle and install solid shells. I believe that ten shells  At least three or five can hit the city wall."

    "However, although we know the height of the city wall of Yuri Bay Harbor, we do not know the strength of the city wall. Each bronze cannon in our naval fleet only reserves about thirty rounds of solid shells. But I believe that as long as all the  A naval gun can fire once at the wall of Yuri Bay, and no more than three times it will definitely make several big holes."

    "Um!"

    Lin Fenghan nodded in understanding and said: "Understood, our most important thing now is to gather the army and navy to gather outside the city, wait for the city wall to be broken, and then rush in."

    "At the same time, I have just sent Collander to lead three hundred cavalry to the east to intercept. Ramsay will lead five hundred cavalry to the north to intercept. They feel that they are important people. Especially the city lord who intercepted the city of Yuri Bay.  and his wife.¡±

    "Now we must gather the team before 9 o'clock, and the naval fleet prepares the naval guns. These people in Yuri Bay City have never seen our giant guns, so they should not flee in large numbers."

    "So hurry up. Gather your troops and surround the city of Yuri Bay. Make sure that the city's gold, silver, jade, antiques, art, and important resources will not escape. Surround this place as soon as possible, and then occupy this city."

    "Um!"

    "kindness!"

    ¡­¡­

    Everyone nodded in understanding and gave orders, while Lin Fenghan took the time to ride forward again to observe the city defenses of Youliwan City.

    Yuri at this timeThe city was particularly alarmed.  Citizens who had never experienced war saw the horror of war for the first time.  Fierce Elantite soldiers brave the dangers and fight across seas.  One by one, catapults and trebuchets threw fireballs and hit barracks, city walls, and residential buildings.  The half-collapsed lighthouse outside the city wall frightened the citizens of Yuri Bay City.

    In the main hall of the inner city of Uri Bay City, Viscount Ullali asked everyone nervously: "Have you found out the enemy's situation? Where are they from? How many ships are there? How many soldiers have you brought?"

    The city defense general Weibus stood up tremblingly and said in fear: "Lord City Lord, we observed their logo and found that it is the same as the logo of the recently emerged Elant army, so there is no doubt that the owner of this huge fleet is Yilan.  Baron Liuyun.¡±

    "Since our lighthouse has been occupied by the enemy, and the upper part of the lighthouse was also destroyed by steel fired by a huge trebuchet, our observations and the fleet that appeared are not very accurate."

    Weibus paused and said carefully: "At around seven o'clock in the morning, when the sun had just risen from the east, white clouds were drifting from the south, looming in the morning fog. The soldiers on the lighthouse had just  It was a shift change, I hadn¡¯t slept well, I was too exhausted, and when the white clouds drifted nearby and the sun rose a little, I realized that something was wrong. At this time, the vanguard of the Elantra¡¯s naval fleet was only six or seven kilometers away from us.¡±

    "When our lighthouse keepers observed the specific data, a fireball flew from their ship, and then half of the entire lighthouse was destroyed. The ten observers suffered heavy casualties, and only the two who came down first to convey the news were left."

    "According to them, they saw and noticed at least 300 ships, and the ships behind them were difficult to see clearly in the morning fog and could not be counted. As for the number of people, it was impossible to count them."

    "According to the descriptions of soldiers, sailors, businessmen, and security guards who retreated to the city, numerous fleets appeared on the shores of multiple seaports, and soldiers ran away from the ships one after another. A small boat more than ten meters tall could  There were 15 soldiers. On the larger ships, there were fifty or sixty soldiers. On the larger ships, they could not be seen clearly. According to the description of the businessman, there were teams after teams and piles of people and horses.  Press down from various shores. According to the information observed by soldiers and sailors, the number of troops coming here must be at least more than 10,000."

    "What?"

    ¡°10,000 people!¡±

    Mrs. Kelana touched the cherry and said in shock.

    Viscount Julari touched Xionghou gently, took a deep breath, and asked quietly: "General Weibus, how many soldiers, security officers, and militiamen are there in our city? How many people are currently fighting?"

    Weibus lowered his head with a pale face and said slowly: "Currently we have 2,000 city defense infantry, 400 city security guards, and 1,000 port navy sailors and coastal defense infantry. But when we walk into the city, after the roll call,  Only 3,000 people were counted.¡±

    "3,000 people!"

    ¡°10,000 people!¡±

    Everyone exclaimed with pale faces.

    Viscount Ullary walked back and forth in a panic, suddenly raised his head firmly, looked at Weibus seriously, and said seriously: "Our current population in the main city of Uri Bay is at least 70,000, and most of them  They are all nobles and powerful people, and they have many personal attendants and guards in their hands, at least 2,000 people. Call them all."

    "At the same time, an alert order and a recruitment order were issued, ordering all healthy adult citizens over the age of sixteen and under the age of forty to sign up at various city walls to participate in city defense."

    "Order the city defense arsenal to open weapons, order the city defense infantry to prepare defensive equipment, and order all soldiers to be on strict standby."

    "At the same time, send out all the carrier pigeons, ravens, and flying eagles to ask for help from the surrounding cities and towns."

    Viscount Julali stopped his body solemnly. His old body was extremely strong at this time. A majestic heroic aura emanated from the old city lord, and his straight, sharp and firm eyes scanned everyone majestically.

    The old city lord Yulali solemnly clenched his fists and smashed his chest and said: "My friends, noble nobles full of glory, the wall on the east side of our city is more than eight meters high. My ancestors had already considered this when building the city of Yuri Bay.  Because of the threat of ballistae, we specially moved two kilometers away from the coast for support. It would be difficult for the trebuchets on the ship to attack here."

    "And our city defense is so strong and the population is so large. Although our main force only has 3,000 people and they have more than 10,000 soldiers, we will never be afraid. Even if they can hit the city wall, they will not be afraid of it.  We have to defeat 3,000 elite soldiers and more than 7,000 adult citizens despite the powerful army with our efforts."

    ¡°We will definitely get the final victory¡±Profit!  "

    "good!"

    "Very good!"

    "Viscount Julali, we can definitely win!"

    "Viscount Julali is mighty!"

    "We admire you, City Lord Julali!"

    ¡­¡­

    Under the encouragement of the old city lord, many noble elites in Uriwan City cheered up and shouted with high morale.
