They're clearly here to die.

The key point is that he himself is known as the number one warrior at sea, and this guy is acting so arrogantly now, he's clearly here to cause trouble.

Ran Min shook his head and said in a deep voice, "This is just a battlefield of a few dozen ships, and there are even fishing boats among them. They might be enemy spies!"

If they were to engage in battle, there's no reason for such a small force to come; that would be rather foolish.

"Good, some of you go and deal with them. We can't let them get away!"

Seeing them about to run away, Sun Jian glanced at the others beside him. This vanguard mission was a great start; it was time to see who could snag it.

The centipede ship was extremely fast, enough to catch up with these suicidal ghosts, at least preventing them from returning to report the specific details.

Just as Gan Ning was about to make a move, Yu Jin stepped forward first.

Without saying a word, he jumped directly onto the centipede boat on the side.

Seeing the others' eager expressions, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. "This guy must be out of his mind. I'll go take care of them!"

If someone has just joined the lord's camp and isn't proactive in making contributions, then there's something wrong with their thinking.

Go for it!

"Damn it, this guy beat me to it!"

Gan Ning's face stiffened; this shameless guy had actually gone straight for it.

Ha ha!

Yu Jin laughed heartily and immediately mustered more than ten thousand men, heading straight for the front.

At this moment, the centipede ship's advantages were on full display. Despite the headwind, the centipede ship maintained its terrifying speed, rapidly closing in on its opponent.

He couldn't help but sneer, "Since you're here, don't leave. Let us show our faces!"

This is the greatest achievement, the most important one!

"Holy shit!"

Seeing the enemy warship hurtling towards them like an arrow, Kusakawa Saemon's face turned green. He couldn't help but get angry and embarrassed, saying, "What the hell is this thing? This warship is moving way too fast! Is this some kind of ghost?"

That's fucking too fast!

This is against the wind; we're struggling to move forward on our own, so why the hell are you flying like the wind?

"General, many of them are catching up!" The guard beside him trembled as he spoke.

The others were also terrified, their faces pale. This was even more frightening than a great storm; the enemy was right behind them!

"Roll!"

Upon hearing this, Kusakawa Saemon's face turned extremely ugly, and he angrily retorted, "Do you think I can't see it? Do you need to tell me?"

"Hurry up and tell the boatmen to speed up! Give it your all, or I'll chop them up!"

He's not blind; how could he not see that he's being chased?

At that moment, he felt an unprecedented fear; the enemy had so many warships, and at least tens of thousands of people were coming.

Now we can only hope that the enemy can't catch up; if they do, we're probably doomed.

Now all he wants to know is who this person is who would come looking for him!

Could it be that the Lesser Flow Nation have united and mobilized their entire nation's troops?

"Look! The enemy is catching up!"

"The enemy's battlefield movement is too fast. There seem to be words on it, but I don't recognize them."

"That's Great Liang!"

"Damn it, these are warships of the Great Liang Dynasty, how did they get here?"

Some of the people here had been to the Great Ning, so they recognized the words on it at a glance and instantly thought of the Great Liang Dynasty that had recently stirred up trouble on the continent.

"What, the Great Liang Dynasty?"

Kusakawa Saemon's face immediately turned ugly, his expression filled with disbelief.

The fame of the Great Liang had already spread throughout the world. Even those separated by a vast ocean had heard of it, making it an absolute superpower.

Countless enemies turned to ashes in their hands, and in the end, all the enemies were defeated.

When did this land-based hegemon come to the sea and send hundreds of thousands of troops? What are they trying to do?

"Not good!"

"The enemy is catching up quickly!"

Saemon's heart was pounding in his chest. To be caught up by the enemy while fleeing was absolutely terrifying.

Under his desperate gaze, the enemy drew ever closer to his position, threatening to catch up with him.

Ahhh!

With gritted teeth, he roared and shouted, "Brothers, we can't escape now! The enemy warships are too fast!"

Once they're within attack range, shoot them! I don't believe they're made of iron.

call out!

No sooner had he finished speaking than a line of black dots shot out from the enemy warship.

Its speed was astonishing, arriving almost instantly. Years of combat experience had given it his most instinctive reaction, and he immediately lay down on the deck.

Puff puff puff!

Saemon dodged, but those around him didn't even have time to react before they were pierced through, and along with the people behind them, were nailed to the ship.

"Oh my god, what is this?"

"These are specially made arrowheads, more than ten times larger than ordinary arrowheads!"

"Damn it, one arrow killed four of us! That's unbelievable!"

Seeing these arrows and their terrifying penetrating power, everyone was somewhat stunned.

Sahyouyae was terrified. He couldn't care less about showing off at the stern and ran to the front to watch the approaching centipede ships from afar.

The enemy is attacking from such a distance; those arrows are definitely not from ordinary bows and arrows.

A thought flashed through his mind, and he said bitterly, "This must be a ship's crossbow! Only a ship's crossbow has such terrifying penetrating power; this is practically a kill shot that can take out several people."

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The enemy showed no sign of stopping firing; instead, they launched a frenzied barrage of shots.

Not only were the ship crossbows attacking relentlessly, but ordinary crossbows also began firing, throwing the Yamata Nation's forces into chaos.

They were originally preparing to shoot, but before it was their turn, they were shot at by someone else.

"Oh no! Help me! I've been shot with an arrow!"

Don't step on me!

Ahhh!

Screams echoed from the warships as the long-range attacks of the Great Liang's Divine Arm Crossbow and ship crossbows turned them into easy targets.

He had no idea about fighting back; he was simply riddled with arrows and began dodging them in all directions.

After all, the crossbow bolts fired from that ship were truly terrifying; even several people couldn't withstand them, which was quite frightening.

This time, it wasn't just Saemon who noticed the problem and hid at the front; everyone else saw it too and rushed to the front of the warship.

However, this movement created a problem, as all the weight was on the bow of the boat, causing it to lose its balance instantly.

Several small fishing boats capsized, and even a few warships began to list and were about to fall.

This made Saemon's face turn green, and he angrily said, "You bastards, all of you get to the rear and attack the enemy! What are you all doing running to the front?"

"Of course I want to die! Who the hell can withstand that stuff?!"

At this point, no one cared about being a general anymore; only those who survived were generals, and those who didn't were just corpses.

Those are ship crossbows; they don't have eyes.
