"Fire!"

With an order.

A dozen anti-aircraft guns opened fire.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

Suddenly, bursts of explosions appeared in the sky hundreds of thousands of meters away.

Clusters of flame flowers bloomed.

This scene is like a balloon artillery shooting on Earth in 1870.

The purpose of anti-aircraft artillery at that time was to destroy the enemy's reconnaissance earth.

Of course, the anti-aircraft artillery of Yingque is much more advanced than the crude version of the balloon artillery in 1870.

Because of the advanced explosives, the explosion is very powerful, and the shooting height is also amazing.

But the rate of fire is not fast enough, there is no automation at all, and everything needs manual operation.

"Master, this generation of anti-aircraft artillery is better than the previous batches. The rate of fire is 20.00% faster, and the mobile aiming is more flexible, but the caliber is 15.00% smaller."

For anti-aircraft artillery, at least more than two years ago.

This must be done, because the enemy's air superiority is too great.

Whether it's against King Mi, or Sky Bookstore, or the Western Holy See.

These three enemies all have crushing air power.

What Ying Que sees now is already the fifth generation.

Artillery is easy to make, even crude anti-aircraft artillery.

For example, the anti-aircraft gun on Earth in 1870 was extremely rough.

However, it is not the balloon that needs to be aimed and shot, but the high-mobility flying cavalry of the enemy.

Therefore, the requirements for the rate of fire and the accuracy of aiming are very high.

Ying Que has a first-class environment, which is the secret laboratory of the Dark Academy.

But it is a laboratory after all, and the output is too limited.

And his industrial strength is just at the beginning.

He knows how to make guns, and in the secret laboratory of the Dark School, with Ying Que's magnetic control technique, he can manufacture first-class guns.

But it cannot be mass-produced!

According to the workshop level of Black Gold City, only outdated smoothbore guns could be produced.

The rifling can be drawn by Ying Que's magnetic control technique, and it even takes a few days and nights to draw the rifling in batches.

However, with the current level of craftsmanship of the Black Gold City Workshop, it is simply impossible to mass-produce qualified rifled barrels.

So, gun manufacturing has been going on, but not smoothly.

Moreover, on the battlefield of the Dongyi Empire, the Yingque Expeditionary Army seized more than [-] flintlock muskets of the Western Holy See.

The artillery of the Western Holy See Expeditionary Force is considered very advanced, with high explosives and rifled guns.

However, rifled guns were not equipped on a large scale.

Because artillery can make a large number of craftsmen refine it, but guns can't.

In a sense, making guns is more difficult than making artillery, especially advanced guns, because they are more refined.

It is impossible for a craftsman to spend a month to make a gun. The price/performance ratio is too low.

Advanced guns are destined to be the product of large-scale industrialization and standardization.

It is very difficult to create the Western Holy See at present, and it is even more impossible to win or lose.

When he just seized [-] muskets from the Western Holy See, Ying Que was very excited, and felt that his combat effectiveness was about to improve by leaps and bounds.

He also once thought about changing all the [-] ace troops to equip them with more advanced guns.

But... tested several times.

An embarrassing result was reached.

Much better than using a bow and arrow.

Most of the Bone Leader Legion, the Ningdao First Legion, were transformed into Nirvana by the Dark Tree.

Their dark bows can even exceed three hundred pounds of pulling force, and the special arrows have unparalleled penetrating power.

Also, they are capable of firing bursts.

Therefore, the power of their bows and arrows far exceeds that of guns.

Therefore, Ying Que completely gave up letting them use guns.

Instead, 3 people were specially selected and trained to become a specialized musket army.

At present, the 3 people have never been released, and they have not been allowed to appear on the battlefield.

They will cooperate with the [-] ace army to attack the East China Sea Province, and go to the battlefield when the Mi family is completely wiped out, as the second ace force to win or lose the army.

"Transport these thirteen anti-aircraft guns to Zhenhai City Wharf, and let Shen Lingluo's fleet equip them immediately." Ying Que ordered.

"Yes!"

Ying Que said again: "You deploy your manpower to manufacture the sixth batch of anti-aircraft artillery. Just follow this specification. You don't need to upgrade and replace it. Try to manufacture the sixth batch before the sea battle. During this time, you have dark guns. Priority right to use the secret base of the academy."

"Yes!"

....................................

Winning seems to have guessed wrong!

On June [-], Mi's launched another air strike.

This time, 150 flying knights came.

It brought even greater casualties to Zhenhai City.

Ying Que obviously has strong anti-aircraft firepower, but it is still useless, and he endured casualties.

June thirteenth.

Mi launched a third air strike.

Moreover, this time, not only Zhenhai City was air-strike, but also Bone City and Wild Grass Academy.

Although there were no huge casualties among the Bones, all retreated into the dark realms before the enemy air attack was detected.

But the Wild Grass Academy was blown up in half.

Mi's air corps even tried to bomb the dam of Baiguling's reservoir.

It's just that it didn't work. Six bombs were dropped, but the dam still couldn't be blown up.

The continuous air strikes and bombings made people wonder if King Mi really judged whether he won or lost. Is this just a tentative attack?

Or, King Mi's original intention was for air strikes?It's not to test whether Yingqi has anti-aircraft firepower.

However, Ying Que did not use anti-aircraft firepower from beginning to end, and continued to engage in strategic fraud.

................................................

Inside the underground fortress of Zhenhai Marquis Mansion.

Ying Que and the emperor and others had a meeting.

"I'm [-]% sure now that King Mi is about to launch a naval battle, and he's going to assemble an extremely powerful fleet to attack Zhenhai City from the sea and hit Huanglong directly."

"And in this naval battle, he will use unprecedented tactics, which I call aircraft carrier tactics."

"It's just that I really don't know how many air corps he will dispatch, and I don't know how many air corps he has."

"Let the soldiers on the northern front get ready, the second phase of the war is about to break out, and it will be even more tragic."

"But the battle in the second stage is completely a sheep attack. The more fierce the fight, the more it will be a sheep attack."

"Mi Wang's real direction will be all invested in sea battles, and he will invest all naval resources."

"The outcome of this sea battle will directly determine the fate of both of us. If we lose this sea battle, we will directly lose this war."

"And if King Mi loses this naval battle, then his hometown, East China Sea Province, will lose all its barriers."

Prince Lian said: "King Zhenhai, we also have aerial reconnaissance. A large-scale fleet cannot hide its tracks, and we will still find it. He can't catch anyone by surprise."

Ying Que came to the map, pointed to a direction, and said, "This is the Demon Spirit Sea. The straight-line distance from Zhenhai City is only 290 miles. Of course, there are many reefs on the seabed in this direction to the south, which is not suitable for large-scale navigation of the fleet. , so they will appear in the northeast of the Demon Spirit Sea, which is only more than 400 miles away from our Zhenhai City."

"More than 400 miles away, a maximum of twelve hours, a powerful fleet can suddenly appear on the sea east of Zhenhai City. This is absolutely unexpected."

Prince Lian trembled and said, "Their main fleet is actually hidden in the dark realm of the Demon Spirit Sea?"

Ying Que said: "Yes, I'm [-]% sure."

That, that's really scary.

In almost half a day, King Mi's fleet was able to reach the outside of Zhenhai City.

It's more than a surprise, it's a different kind of blitzkrieg.

It is said that only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle.

But this sea battle is full of fog of war for both the king Mi and the winner.

Neither side knew exactly how powerful the other was.

Ying Que can only roughly judge Mi Wang's tactics, but it can only be estimated how many warships he has, how advanced he is, and how much air power he will use.

However, he put the emperor in Zhenhai City as a bait, in the final analysis, to attract the main force of King Mi's navy to attack.

This is the fastest way to win a war, for both sides.

Neither side is willing to make this war a protracted one.

..........................................

In the northern waters of the East China Sea Province.

Mi's Air Corps is conducting its final tactical drill.

Completely combat-oriented tactical drills.

King Mi took several backbones of the Mi family and was watching the whole exercise from a height.

"ready, go!"

With an order.

On a certain giant armed merchant ship, dozens of flying knights soared into the sky and flew towards a warship on the sea.

When there were still more than ten miles away from the battleship, a rapid dive began.
