Chapter 1196 Sea Action
After another day's rest at the Yangtze River Fortress, Jie Zichuan, Cerilia, and Hu Che set foot on the road back to Mirror City.
In just a few days, it is naturally impossible for Jie Zichuan to recover.
Therefore, on the way back, in order to ensure the quality of rest, the three of them discussed one of the carriages directly from Cyrelia after a while.
At the same time, on the side of Mingjing City, Yuan Xi's letter of guilt was undoubtedly sent to Mingjing City one step faster than Jie Zichuan and the others.
After reading Luo Ji's confession letter, his eyebrows could be said to be directly twisted into a ball.
A destroyer, he lost, but the problem lies in the actions of the murlocs and the Hydra!
Behind the Hydra is the Dark Elf.
In other words, Naredis has found out about his shipbuilding in the Yangtze River port.
Under this premise, as an enemy, Redis wouldn't let Luo Ji's shipbuilding be too comfortable, so it's not incomprehensible that he sent murlocs and hydras to harass and attack.
But the problem is this wave. According to Yuan Xi's report, the other party not only launched an attack, but even Hydra wanted to forcibly drag their destroyer away.
What does it mean? The other party discovered the extraordinary features of their Wanjie civilization battleship, so he wanted to grab one and go back to study it!
Luo Ji, who was already aware of the headache, directly motioned Ike to pass the matter over to the General Staff Headquarters.
At the same time, he also quickly issued a warrant to send it to Divine Wind City, and asked Zhang William to temporarily transfer Ysera to the Yangtze River Fortress to be on guard for the follow-up attack of Hydra.
At the same time, the elf mage Iverson was also transferred, and he temporarily sat in the Yangtze River Fortress.
During this period, Luo Ji actually thought about whether he could kill the Hydra if he could have a high-level wizard of the water system and use a high-level spell.
But the reality is that, let alone the high-level mages of the water system, the current Myriad Realms civilization does not even have a middle-level mages of the water system. This is a reality that must be recognized.
Now turn our perspective to the headquarters of the staff commander. It can be said that the headquarters of the staff commander who received the news immediately held an emergency meeting. The seven-member staff group headed by Guo Jia are competent, qualified and loyal. Military minister.
However, even the staff group felt a great headache when faced with the Hydra that could dive into the seabed.
Luo Ji originally thought that when the steam battleship was built, he should be able to restrain the Hydra to a certain extent, but in fact, he seemed to underestimate this kind of fantasy creature, even if it was the threat posed by the ship's guns to the Hydra, are relatively limited.
The staff had a heated discussion on how to deal with the Hydra hiding in the sea.
"There was a successful case when the Elf King went on an expedition to the swamp and rainforest before. We could let the Eagle Knight directly bomb the entire river surface. Of course, ordinary grenades are not powerful enough. We can use the newly developed high-explosive grenade."
"Please recognize the reality, how much resources do our military have to consume each time this approach? Moreover, as long as the Hydra continues to dive, the damage of the explosion will not be affected by it!"
"How about torpedoes? The torpedoes being developed by the Ordnance Research Department are just capable of underwater attacks."
"The torpedo is still under development, there are difficulties that have not been overcome, and it can't be put into use now. God knows when they will come up with new results."
"Actually, if you want to kill the Hydra, the most effective weapon should be Ysera's Dragon Breath, and there have been two instances of heavy damage to the Hydra, and the second time it directly destroyed a snake head!"
"That's right, Ysera's dragon breath succeeded in making it only have eight heads left, but Ysera can't swim or dive. Now that hydra is on alert, once she sees Ysera , I guess it won't come to the surface easily, you really said a nonsense!"
Looking at the arguing members of the staff group in front of him, Guo Jia, the chief of the general staff, sat there without saying a word, obviously not intending to stop it.
Because this is the normal state.
Answers are often born out of heated debates.
While the General Staff Headquarters was arguing about this issue, Redis, who was far away at sea, had also learned that his plan had failed.
The only thing to be thankful for this time, I am afraid that his Hydra did not suffer as badly as the previous time.
The civilization of the worlds, Redis has long regarded it as a confidant.
The dragon breath of the elf dragon can pose a death threat to the hydra, and after that, the lizardmen even got involved with the civilization of the world.
In other words, in the current situation, there are elven dragons in the air of Wanjie Civilization, and giant horned dragon lizards on land!
In the face of these two giant beasts, his advantage is basically only the sea.
This situation undoubtedly fully inspired Redis' sense of crisis.
He began to order the fish people to search along the river. If you want to grasp the enemy, you must first start with the information!
It took a relatively long time for the fish people to discover the traces of the lizard people. Then, they discovered the camp of the lizard people, the port where a large number of humans were infested, the strange buildings on the river and the steel warships!
The appearance of the steel battleship is beyond common sense for Redis. He can't imagine how such a heavy steel hull floats on the water, with such an exaggerated weight, shouldn't it sink directly into the water?
This is just preliminary information.
According to the follow-up information sent back by the murloc scouts, they found that the speed of the steel warships on the river was unexpectedly fast, even far exceeding that of the dark elves' black-sailed warships. Artillery is also surprisingly powerful.
Redis, who heard the news, instantly felt a strong sense of unease in his heart.
The unknown is terrifying, but for Redis, the even more terrifying thing is that the civilization of the world has begun to encroach on the sea.
Once the naval power of the other party is formed, it will inevitably threaten their current situation.
Faced with this situation, Redis certainly couldn't just sit and do nothing.
At that moment, he made a decisive decision and directly sent the soldiers of the murlocs and the Hydra to go deep in. He wanted to try to see if he could grab one of the steel battleships on the opposite side.
And now it turns out that his move has failed.
But this does not make Redis cancel his plan and let his enemies develop. What is the difference between that and chronic suicide?
The enemy has gradually shown his fangs towards him, and if he does nothing, he will only be eaten clean in the end!
