Starting From Zero

Chapter 53 Attacked

I finally ran back to the hotel lobby. Manager Wang was shocked when he saw me coming in with a small mountain in my arms, and he quickly brought a group of people up to help me spread my things. In fact, for my muscle strength, let alone a few clothes, even holding three people is not a problem. The main reason is that too many clothes block my sight and make it difficult to walk!

It was convenient to have help, and we had everything moved into the elevator in just a few seconds. I quickly returned to the suite and gave the waiter some tips. I just took them from the cash machine. It is appropriate to tip appropriately in such a high-end place. I stopped a waiter. "Do you have a network interface here?"

"Yes!" The waiter asked what I wanted. "Where do you need to use network equipment? We have three power interfaces in each room (network interfaces and power interfaces overlap). If you have special needs, we can also provide wireless network equipment for free."

"I want to play online games and need an interface that I can connect to in bed, and there are four of us!"

The waiter walked to the bed and opened a cover under the head of the bed. "There are two interfaces here, and there are two symmetrically opposite."

"Okay, thank you!" I gave him some extra tips and asked him to bring some food later. We haven't had dinner yet! The snacks I had in the afternoon have long been digested!

When the waiter brought the food, Rose and the three of them came back. They bought four universal full-coverage helmets, which seemed to be of good quality. After eating something, we found places to go online separately. With Zi Yue and Lin Yue here, I couldn't squeeze into the bed with Rose. Although the big bed was enough for four people, I still reluctantly moved a recliner and put it at the end of the bed. Woohoo~ My world for two is over. Got it!

After going online, I went directly to the port. Ziyue and Rose arrived faster than me. The scene in front of me made me dumbfounded. But I had only been away for less than a day. How could it become like this? The sky above the city is filled with smog, and the sunlight shining on the smog turns a very disharmonious orange color, which is very depressing. Thirty-seven warships were lined up on the sea not far away, and their muzzles were constantly spraying flames. "Are you kidding? Shelling the port?"

Ziyue grabbed a player. "What's going on? What's going on with those battleships?"

"That was a retaliatory action by the Japanese. The Japanese fleet suffered heavy losses in the last naval battle. This time they heard that our warships were being repaired and took the opportunity to retaliate against us!" The player who was pulled ran away after saying this.

"Let's go to the dock!" I took the lead and ran towards the dock, followed by Ziyue and Rose.

Soon we arrived at the dock. The scene in front of us was not much better than the port. The entire dock was full of holes made by shells. Fortunately, the Japanese did not know that the Bi Ling was parked in the dock. Otherwise, if they concentrated on attacking the dock, our The battleship is likely to be sunk directly in the dock.

When we rushed into the dock, the staff inside were still repairing the Biling. Looking at them, they looked like they were ready to die, braving the cannonballs flying in the sky to load wood and tools on the ship! The eagle saw us coming and greeted us happily. "You are finally here!"

"How's the situation?"

"That's it!" Ying said helplessly: "We are in the dock and can't even use the cannon. Besides, we don't have cannons. The magic crystal cannon on the bow can fire, but we can't fire. As long as we Once the cannon is fired, the Japanese will know that our warship is parked in the dock. Now there is a gate blocking their view. All that flies in are stray bullets. Once the position is exposed, it will be fired upon by a salvo of fire!"

"But if we wait like this, the shells will fall on our heads sooner or later!" Ziyue said excitedly. "The Bi Ling is our only hope, we can't let it sink in the dock!"

"But we don't have cannon!"

"Have you seen the long-range cannon at the blacksmith's?"

"Look!"

"Did they copy it?"

"Yes! It's been built, but a new artillery costs 100,000 crystal coins, and we can't afford it!"

"Is that guy crazy? 100,000? You can buy a boat!" I didn't expect it to be so ridiculously expensive! "Don't the fortress cannons only cost 3,000 crystal coins each? You can buy 33 of them with 100,000 and there are still some left!"

"Actually, I think this is not a loss!" Ying said: "I saw the performance of the new cannon. They added Chinese technology to the original Indian and Japanese artillery fire. The current cannon is named The Ram Dragon Cannon has a firing range of up to kilometers, a firing speed of up to 10 rounds per minute, and its power is almost as powerful as a magic crystal cannon!"

"How many gun rooms do we have now?"

"We removed most of the propeller rooms and only retained 40 propeller chambers for auxiliary steering. Now we have a total of 1,300 gun chambers! We have also increased the number of sailor chambers to 1,000."

"Oh my God! It costs 130 million crystal coins just to equip all the artillery pieces? What about the cannonballs? What about the sailors?" I started to feel weak in my legs.

"The shells cost three crystal coins each, which is relatively cheap!" Ying said helplessly.

"Is this cheap? Who can bear the cost of 3,900 crystal coins for a salvo? This ship can fire shells worth 39,000 crystal coins in one minute. Do I want to live anymore!"

"There's nothing we can do about it!"

I said to Ying: "You wait here for now, I'll see if I can transport the cannon over first, and I'll give you the money later."

"All right!"

We took Ziyue and Rose to the weapon shop, and the boss actually jumped on us when he saw us. "Your ship is big, isn't it?"

"Well! What's wrong?" I didn't know what he meant.

"I heard that you need artillery. Do you want these ram dragon cannons? Now the Japanese pirates are attacking us. If you can bring the cannons to the sea to fight, my place will not be so dangerous!"

He is also anxious about his feelings! That would be easy! "We want to do it too! But we have no money for the time being!"

"It's okay! I can lend it to you first, without charging interest, as long as you pay it back as soon as possible!" Hehe! Just what I want! I originally planned to be stubborn and stubborn, but I didn't expect the boss to take the initiative and ask for no interest. I really made a profit! Ziyue looked at the cannon next to her and began to feel worried. "How can we transport so many cannons?"

"I don't know!" I started to worry too! Last time it took thousands of sailors to move 600 guns and it took five or six hours to move them. This time it was 1,300 guns, and we don’t have that many sailors anymore! This is how to do ah!

"It doesn't matter. You go to the director of the Sailors Association and tell him that it was me who said it. I will vouch for you. First, borrow enough sailors to 'operate' the cannon, and ask them to find someone to help transport the cannon to the ship."

"Okay! Thank you!" I didn't expect the blacksmith to be so interesting. Are all blacksmiths more honest?

With the help of the blacksmith, we borrowed money from the Sailors' Association to hire 3,900 gunners to operate the cannons. Together with the necessary sailors on the ship, we have a total of 4,600 sailors. Now we have 800 sailors' cabins, which means we can It holds 16,000 sailors. Removing those 4,600 people, we can still install 11,400 combat sailors. In the end, we hired 4,000 heavy swordsmen, 5,400 rocket soldiers, and 500 four-series mages each.

Calculate this way, you owe 130 million crystal coins to buy 1,300 cannons, each cannon is equipped with 1,000 shells, a total of 1.3 million shells, and you owe 3.9 million crystal coins. To buy 3,900 gunners, you owe 39,000 crystal coins. 4,000 heavy swordsmen owe a total of 00,000 crystal coins, 5,400 rocket soldiers owe a total of 00,000 crystal coins, and 00 mages owe another 00,000 crystal coins. After this calculation, I have accumulated a debt of 140,639,000 crystal coins. It's over now, so much money means I have to exchange two ships of gold for it!

With a heavy heart, I finally arrived at the dock. Behind me was the NPC transportation team who moved all my belongings. This is something I only scraped together after getting myself into deep debt! Eagle's eyes widened when he saw what I was directing the NPCs to transport.

"You are really good. Tell me, how did you cheat?"

I cried sadly. "You got it by cheating? I was cheated! I owe a debt of 140,639,000 crystal coins! How can I pay it back?"

"Didn't you get gold from Atlantis?" Gold Coin came over and just heard me complaining, so he interrupted and hit me.

"What do you know! Atlantis didn't give me gold for free. They used gold to buy my magic crystal. It's not like I got the magic crystal for free. I had to spend money to buy it from others! Atlantis The required magic crystals cost the equivalent of 7 ships of gold, and they gave me a total of 10 ships of gold, which means that there are only three ships of gold at my disposal! This comprehensive upgrade of the Biling cost me more than 100 million crystals. Coins, this is almost two shiploads of gold, plus this magic shield device and the magic crystal cannon I plan to buy. After calculating this, I am afraid that not only will we be left with a penny, but we will also be short of tens of millions of crystal coins! "

"Wow! I won't be able to pay it off in this lifetime!" Jin Coin's eyes almost popped out. "You should think of a way! We are in the same guild, and I have to pay back the money you spent on boat accessories. If you do this, don't I want to share the money with you? I won't do it! Please think of a way! "

"It seems we can only fight to support the war!" Rose helped me come up with an idea.

"What do you mean?" None of us knew what it meant.

Rose explained to us. "We can cripple some Japanese warships, then drag them back, repair them, and sell them to other guilds. Anyway, each guild lost a lot of warships in the last war, and there will be an urgent need for a large number of ships in the short term. We don't have to worry about no one buying them. Also , we can collect and auction the equipment exploded by the Japanese players who were killed on the Japanese battleships, which should be able to barely support some consumption. I believe that as long as the results are good, it will not be a problem to control the debt amount within one million crystal coins!"

"Isn't that a lot of debt?" Jin Coin regards money as her life, and asking her to cough up the money to repay the debt is more uncomfortable than costing her life. The most classic motto of gold coins is: "I would rather be raped than robbed!" This shows how stingy this super money-worshiping girl is!

"I'm not finished yet!" Rose continued to explain her plan. "We have one large magic shield and four small magic shields. Because the effects of magic shields do not stack, it is useless for us to have so many. We only need to keep the big one, and we can auction the other four. , if the effect is good, it is not impossible to do business with this in the future! As long as we can sell those four small magic shields, I believe we can guarantee that not only will we not be in debt, but we can also earn at least hundreds of thousands!"

"What a great idea! Rose, you are so smart!" Ziyue praised.

"Of course, my rose is the smartest."

Rose said modestly: "I majored in economics. This is my specialty. I should be able to plan in this area!"

While everyone was watching the artillery fire flying outside, they were directing the people below to load the ships. Suddenly I saw a familiar figure. I jumped off the boat and ran straight over. "King Chuang? Why are you running around here?"

"Have you seen my battleship?" King Chuang looked very excited and seemed to be out of control.

"Are you talking about the Haiwei?" Eagle also caught up.

"Did you see it?" King Chuang grabbed the eagle as if grasping a life-saving straw. "Tell me quickly, where is my ship?"

Eagle helplessly pointed to a mast exposed on the sea in the port. "After the Japanese came, the first ship they attacked was your Haiwei. There were several people on the ship at that time. They originally wanted to drive the ship out of the port to fight, but the enemy fired a salvo and destroyed the Haiwei. Completely sunk! But they did a good job. Because the Haiwei delayed the Japanese bombardment, the shore defense guns on the port had the opportunity to sink a few Japanese warships. When they came, there were more than forty ships. Of a battleship.”

"What about the other battleships?" King Chuang continued to ask.

"The enemy came just at dinner time, and most people were not online, so many ships were sunk directly in the port. Although we saw it, we couldn't help!" Ying was also helpless to save the green mountain of Biling. Only then can we have the capital to continue resisting Japan. You can't act on impulse at that time!

Just as we were talking, a cannonball flew over and landed next to us. The loud noise and shock wave sent a group of us into the sky. Eagle, Rose, and Chuang Wang who were nearby died on the spot. Ziyue and I were lifted into the sky but survived. I did it because my defense was high and I had more health points, and Ziyue was standing right behind me, and I blocked most of the power of the shell explosion!

This serious loss was entirely because we were too careless. So many of us were standing on the empty dock chatting. You must know that the Japanese were still shelling the port at that time! Although after the ships in the port were wiped out at the beginning, the bombardment began to become irregular and aimless, but with so many of us gathering on the dock, we clearly prepared a target for the Japanese! Fortunately, Gold Coin, Big Pot Rice, and Yu Zhe were all on board to direct the loading and did not follow us, otherwise our entire guild would collectively lose one level this time!

I picked up Ziyue who was knocked unconscious and ran into the dock quickly, but the artillery fire followed me and started to focus on the dock. I quickly put down Ziyue and ran out of the dock alone to the opposite mountain. Sure enough, the shelling followed me all the time. A row of fireballs rose behind me. These Japanese bastards are treating me like a monkey! Just when I was about to stop and curse, a shell landed not far behind me. I was so frightened that I quickly continued to fire.

At the same time, on the Japanese boat, several little Japanese were watching me rolling and crawling in embarrassment as I ran for my life to avoid the gunfire and applauded. What they feel is that they have teased the Chinese again!

I was so depressed that I ran for a while and actually reached the edge of the cliff. Just as I was about to turn around and run, a cannonball landed next to me and sent me off the cliff! "Lucky!" I summoned Lucky and it landed directly on his back. I tried my best to command Lucky to pull up, but the Japanese artillery fire still refused to let go of me and chased me. Fortunately, Lucky in the air was much more flexible than me. He dodged left and right and none of his shots hit us.

We flew directly in the direction of the Japanese fleet. Due to the close distance, the cannons in the Japanese cabin could not aim at me. When I got close to them and the horizontal distance was only a few hundred meters, only the guns on the deck of their ships could stand up and shoot me. I ordered Lucky to fly directly above them, but the stupid Japanese put the gun at a right angle in order to aim at me, and the barrel pointed straight up at me. Then they actually fired. I couldn't figure out what was going on in their minds. They dared to fire from such an angle!

The cannonball flew straight up, but was easily dodged by Lucky. The cannonball flying upward finally reached its highest point, and the cannonball that lost its inertia began to fall downward. Because they were fired vertically, the cannonballs fell straight down with almost no horizontal displacement, and they accurately fell back into the barrel from which they were fired.

The few little Japanese below who had just watched me play monkey tricks were happily watching a lot of cannonballs flying up, but when they found that the cannonballs fell again, they all started to jump into the sea. But they were still so late, the shells arrived before them! Balls of fire rose up, and my stomach hurt from laughing so hard. These idiots actually turned their cannons upright to hit me!

I know what it means to give up when it's good. Although the Japanese sank one of their own ships just now, I don't think the Japanese will be so stupid that the surrounding warships also imitate them and 'shoot' into the sky, so I rationally Choose to retreat. Of course, I still wanted to take revenge before I left. My revenge plan was to direct Lucky to fire n dragon flame bombs, but because we didn’t dare to get too close, most of the dragon flame bombs fell into the sea, and the few that hit It worked quite well and set several ships on fire.

At this time, in the air, I saw a large fleet coming over on the distant sea. It turned out to be a fleet from a nearby city coming to rescue. Seeing that they could not get any advantage, the Japanese set sail and retreated. Although the rescue fleet fired artillery and carried out a deterrent attack, thirty-three warships were still lost in the end. The Japanese only paid the price of a dozen warships to cleanse our entire city! In the past, we laughed at how badly the Americans were beaten by the Japanese in the Pearl Harbor incident. Now we have experienced the same experience personally. The entire port fleet was completely disabled in the port. From beginning to end, we failed to organize an effective attack. defense! If the rescue fleet hadn't arrived in time, and if the Biling hadn't been hiding in the dock without fighting back, our losses would have been even more unacceptable!

Now no matter what, at least we have kept the capital that allowed Japan to pay for its blood debt, and we have kept the Biling! Looking at the city full of damage and the port full of debris, I really don’t know what to say. Today’s city can only be described as a ruin. There are almost no complete buildings in the entire city. The shipyard can be preserved. It’s all thanks to its shabby construction that people wouldn’t think it was a shipyard, otherwise it would have been the first to suffer!

Ying and the others finally came out of the Resurrection Hall, but instead of returning to the port, they sat down and looked at the ruined city full of damage. There is such an unknown fire in everyone's heart, and now everyone is planning our next move for revenge!

We have never been beaten so badly, this is the first time, and I hope it will also be the last time! 135 large and small warships from various guilds and thousands of small fishing boats used for leveling were turned into a pile of rotten wood. This loss is really too serious!

I told Ying that I was going to retaliate and then went offline. I need to calm down. In this situation, I may very well make judgments that are inconsistent with reality! I need to wake up and think about it further!

Ziyue and Rose also exited as soon as I got off the line. They just sat up and took off their helmets. Both of them looked at me and said nothing. I can see how they feel. There were tears in Rose's eyes, while Ziyue's eyes were burning with flames, the flames of hatred.
