Chapter 866 – Underwater Dragon King Cannon
Dead of night, Satellite City.
Within the City Lord’s Manor, Ouyang Shuo smiled, “The Tiger Leopard Cavalry has done a beautiful battle, so it’s time for the main battlefield to move tomorrow. Wen He, contact the spies in Rabat, act exactly at noon tomorrow.”
“Yes my king!”
Jia Xu turned around and left. The country war had finally welcomed its most crucial day.
…
Just as Ouyang Shuo was ready to give Rabat a fatal blow, something unusual was happening in the underground world under the Satellite City.
When the Moroccan players left the Satellite City, the players within did not have time to escape and were stuck in the underground world.
When the expedition army moved in, even if they wanted to get out, they could not.
And those who were able to enter were all the elites among the adventure gamemode players. Currently, a small group of Golden Mercenary Group players, who were in charge of exploring the underground world, were conversing.
The news of the Moroccan territory army falling was spread to them through the forums.
This time, they were furious.
“Captain, shouldn’t we do something?” The one who spoke was a young man holding a bow. At a glance, he was a quick thinking person.
His captain was a warrior; he looked British and said, “Dida, what are your thoughts?”
Dida turned his eyes and said coldly, “Captain, do you remember the devil duckbeak beast we met that day?”
“Of course, they are so terrifying. If we did not run in time, we would have died there.” The captain replied. Only then did he realize, and his eyes opened wide, “Are you planning to use them? Are you crazy?”
“Why not?” Dida was not fazed, “Captain, think about it. If we can lead them to the surface, it would be a huge problem for the enemy. There are 10 thousand spirit beasts.”
“With our ability, how can we lead them?”
Although the captain was tempted, he did not know what Dida was thinking.
When Dida heard this, he smiled, “Captain, did you notice that when we passed the devil duckbeak beasts, they were laying eggs? If we steal the eggs and throw them into the Satellite City, the beasts will riot.”
“Furthermore,” as he said that, greed appeared in his eyes, “Those beasts are hiding a treasure, so once they are all led away, wouldn’t that treasure be ours? If that was the case, wouldn’t we be able to take revenge and get a treasure?”
When the captain heard that, he nodded but soon frowned, “Your idea is correct but the beast king’s egg must be deep in the nest and heavily guarded. For us to steal it will not be easy.”
Dida smiled. Suddenly, he took out an item from his storage bag and smiled, “Look at what this is.”
“Invisibility talisman?” The captain exclaimed, “You actually have such a rare item?”
Dida smiled, “I got it by chance.”
The captain was delighted, patting Dida’s shoulder, “It’s doable with this treasure. You have done a good job. Of the treasures within, you can choose three of them.”
Dida smiled, “What are we waiting for? Let’s set out. We have no time to waste.”
“Let’s go.”
The elite force packed up and disappeared in the cave.
************
5th month, 21st day, sunny.
In the morning, the sky had just turned bright, and the red sun had not totally risen up from the Atlantic. Like they were stepping onto the red sun, the Spanish Invincible Squadron smoothly passed through the Gibraltar Straits.
The squadron did not notice that there were wooden crates floating in front of them.
The commander of the Invincible Squadron was not Casillas but his general. He was one of the famous Spanish generals, the duke of Parma, Alexander Farnese.
Alexander Farnese was the son of duke of Parma Ottavio, and his Mother was Margaret the Duchess of Parma, who was the illegitimate Daughter of the Roman Empire and Spanish king Carlos the 1st. When he was young, he was taken as a hostage and sent to her Uncle, Phillip the 2nd, growing up with another illegitimate child of Carlos, the 1st John of Austria.
In 1571, Alexander Farnese as the deputy of John of Austria helped to break the Ottoman Empire navy in the Battle of Lepanto. Then he went to the Netherlands to calm down the Netherlands revolution. In 1578, he joined in the Battle of Blou and crushed the Holland rebellion army.
In the 10th month, Netherlands Governor John of Austria died because of an illness and Alexander Farnese replaced him as Governor.
Different from how the previous two previous dukes acted, with Alvaro who suppressed them, and John who accepted them, Alexander Farnese suppressed the Utrecht alliance while making up with the Catholicism majority south.
In the eight years that he was Governor, he obtained many contributions, recovering 10/17 of the provinces that had rebelled, while the others formed the Belgium of today. In 1586, he was given the title of duke of Parma.
Alvaro joining the enemy undoubtedly made the Spanish imperial family furious. Under such a situation, Alexander Farnese decided to join Casillas to rebuild the Spanish Invincible Squadron.
Hence, the battle between the Invincible Squadron and the Mediterranean Squadron was like a battle of fate.
…
The Invincible Spanish Squadron, Principe de Asturias.
Casillas stood on the deck. He looked at the calm ocean surface and said to Alexander Farnese, “General, does the Mediterranean Squadron have an ambush set up nearby?”
The two sides of the Gibraltar Straits were really narrow. However, the moment the Spanish Invincible Squadron entered the Atlantic, not to mention ambushing, but even finding them would be a problem.
Hence, this was the best place for the Mediterranean Squadron to ambush them.
“There’s such a possibility, cough cough.”
The Alexander Farnese that appeared in the wilderness was not even 35 years old, but his body was not good. Historically, Alexander Farnese died in 1952 Achslach because of an illness and war not going his way.
Alexander Farnese turned around and said, “Men!”
“Present!”
“Order the troops to enter their battle stations and maintain wariness.”
“Yes general!”
Thinking about the impending encounter, Casillas was excited. At this very moment, warships sailed over from both sides of the straits, and a golden flag waved in the wind.
“It’s the Great Xia Dynasty Mediterranean Squadron!” Casillas recognized it right away.
When Alexander Farnese heard these words, he took out the telescope and focused. Only to see the 3rd and 4th divisions sail over, around a hundred odd warships.
“Aren’t they a little too confident?” Alexander Farnese frowned. Using two divisions against the Spanish Invincible Squadron was really crazy.
“General Alvaro, what are you thinking?”
Alexander Farnese was always careful when he used troops, but he did not know what the enemy was thinking.
“No matter what, since they dare to come, do not let them return.” Casillas was really excited, smiling, “The Mediterranean Squadron’s other two divisions are probably still in Morocco and cannot return. Alvaro was probably ordered to stop us, so he had no choice but to engage.” Casillas thought of an explanation.
When Alexander Farnese heard that, he did not bother if it were real or not, “Let’s hope so.”
At this very moment, a change occurred.
Suddenly, explosions sounded out from the bottom of the ocean, ‘Hong! Hong! Hong!’
Weirdly, the explosions came from beneath their ships and were mostly at the front of the ships. Moreover, the explosion noises were more common at the front of the squadron.
In such a short while, there were 20 odd ships that were damaged and could not move. The more terrifying part was that the explosions continued and did not look like they were going to stop.
“What’s happening?”
Casillas’s expression changed. The explosions continued, and there were even explosions beneath the flagship.
“Quick, go check what’s happening!” Casillas hollered his orders, showing that he was already panicking.
The current Casillas did not notice that Alexander Farnese was really solemn. Alexander Farnese muttered, “Ocean mines, are these the legendary ocean mines?”
Alexander Farnese’s guess was quickly proven correct as placed in the surrounding ocean surface were ocean mines. It could be even called the ancestor of the ocean mines.
“Quick, order the squadron to stop proceeding!” Alexander Farnese ordered.
Ocean mines were an explosive weapon placed under water. It could use many exposure elements like hitting, magnetic, sound, and more to explode and destroy enemy ships or disrupt activity.
Hence, the ocean mines were cheap but really powerful. It was easy to place but hard to find and remove. It was a really flexible weapon and a commonly used one in battle.
Normally speaking, the cost to remove the ocean mines were 100 to 200 times that to place them.
Speaking of ocean mines, people would think that it was a modern weapon. In truth, it was actually the most ancient ocean weapon that originated from China.
Ocean mines were first invented by the Chinese. In 1549, the Ming Dynasty invented the underwater mine, which was the first ocean mine in the world. The mine used wooden crates as the shell, putty to seal it while chains connected to the anchor were used to change the depth and activate the mines manually. It was used 200 years earlier than the ones made by the westerners.
The Ming Dynasty then enhanced it and made one that was called the Underwater Dragon King Cannon.
