Chapter 594 Sky Island Falls
At 10:45 a.m. on October 2nd in the third year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao himself stood in the outpost on the commanding height of the northernmost cliff of Yidao, and used the monocular telescope produced by Kong Ming to observe the sea area northeast of Yidao. The warships of the War Empire's invasion fleet covered the sky and the sun, which greatly shocked Qu Mao.
There was a dark mass of warships that could not be seen through a telescope. Although during the 10 days when Sylvia Oshen led the main team to set off, some warships were refitted in the Yizhen territory and put into the cruise fleet. However, the number of refitted warships was not large. Compared with the warships of the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet during the day, Qu Mao did not force the navy's princess fleet and cruise fleet to wipe out the enemy.
After all, the invasion fleet of the Mughal Empire has already reached the doorstep, and the main naval force has delayed the invasion fleet of the Mughal Empire for more than a week, which is very rare.
Everyone knew in their hearts that Yizhen's territory was about to face a bitter battle, but how long this bitter battle would last, everyone had no idea.
At about 11:30 am on October 2nd in the third year of Tianxuan, the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet had discovered the existence of Yi Island. With the approximate location given by the birdman system, the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet basically knew that it was them. Targets to be invaded, start deploying landing operations.
The battle started quickly. The Mughal Empire's invasion fleet didn't look like it had been harassed by Sylvia Ocean for ten days. After all, it still had a huge number of warships and huge combat power. The adjustment started directly to attack.
Sylvia Oshin actually carried out effective strikes against the invasion fleet of the Mughal Empire during the entire raid and harassment operation, but the results of the battle were not as expected.
After all, more than 500 warships attacked and harassed more than 3,000 warships, and nearly 1,000 ships were destroyed.
The fighters of the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet came up very fiercely. Almost everywhere, warships forcibly docked at every corner of Yi Island. However, the territory of Yi Town had more than ten days of preparation time. The coastal defense ballistas around Yi Island It has been built like a hedgehog.
On the east beach of Yi Island, where you can directly land, at the Fisherman Village Wharf, Mingang Village Wharf, Naval Barracks, and Naval Naval Port, in addition to coastal defense ballistas and coastal defense catapults, there are countless prisoners of war and Yi Town territory army defense.
After every warship of the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet rushed to the shore under the attack of coastal defense ballistas and coastal defense catapults, the soldiers were attacked by prisoners of war as soon as they rushed to Yi Island, and the troops of the Yi Town Territorial Army. Accurate attack, don't be hit back soon.
The battle became intense from the very beginning. A large number of landing fighters from the Mughal Empire invasion fleet were killed.
By around two o'clock in the afternoon, the Mughal Empire invasion fleet had discovered outlying islands and empty islands, and the battle broke out immediately after these two islands were discovered.
Fortunately, Yizhen Territory had already made arrangements for the defense of outlying islands and empty islands during the emergency preparation process, so the Mughal Empire invasion fleet did not catch Yizhen Territory Army by surprise.
Although the three islands were attacked at the same time, the main direction of the Mughal Empire invasion fleet was still the wharf outside the fisherman's village. However, the Fisherman's Village is very close to Yi Town after all. In addition to arranging a large number of prisoners of war to defend, Chafidel also gathered a large number of long-range troops in this area. The Mughal Empire's invasion fleet wanted to break through the territory of Yi Town from the pier outside the Fisherman's Village. Defense, I am afraid it is difficult.
The only regret is that the remaining navy in the Yizhen Territory is no longer enough to stop the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet from approaching the islands of the Yizhen Territory. Guard against attacks from other invading forces.
At around 4:00 p.m. on October 2nd in the third year of Tianxuan, the Mughal Empire invasion fleet stormed outlying islands, Yi Island, and Sky Island while continuing to search southward. Ji Island was discovered by the Mughal Empire invasion fleet as expected. The invasion fleet of the Mughal Empire also launched a landing operation directly and forcefully.
Fortunately, Xuande predicted the entire battle situation last night, and simultaneously arranged for the evacuation of residents in areas where fierce fighting may break out in Ji Island, Sky Island, Outlying Island, and Yi Island, and at the same time filled the residents with prisoners of war and army soldiers. evacuated area.
At about 5:00 pm on October 2nd in the third year of Tianxuan, Sky Island was declared to have fallen without even holding out for half a day.
No less than 10,000 soldiers from the Mughal Empire landed on Sky Island, and the army of Yizhen Territory on Sky Island fought and retreated, step by step retreating to Yizhen on Sky Island.
Fortunately, the residents of other villages on Sky Island had been evacuated to Sky Island Yizhen in advance. After Yi Town’s territorial army defending the pier withdrew to Sky Island, the gates of Sky Island Town were closed immediately. The second-tier fighters climbed the walls of different towns one after another, and began to defend the city.
However, after the soldiers of the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet landed, they pursued to the different town of the empty island, and it seemed that they could not take down the different town of the empty island for a while. Go to other areas of the empty island to occupy Miao Village, Muma Village and other scattered villages.
Even though Kong Ming, Xuande, and Zhao Pan had mentioned to Qu Mao in advance that Sky Island had a high probability of falling, and that the town of Sky Island would never continue to fall after the fall, when Qu Mao actually heard the news of the fall of Sky Island, Mao was still a little uncomfortable.
Also seeing that the sky was getting dark, the offensive of the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet was also slowing down, and it seemed that there was no plan for further night battles. Qu Mao asked the heroes to prepare for the fall of the sky island. Meeting.
After visiting the territory of Yizhen from Fuzhi and Laidema, there have been many battles, but the entire island was captured by the enemy landing, and it was the first time that the empty island fell.
After receiving Qu Mao's notice, Xuande still wanted to explain to Qu Mao that the fall of Sky Island was not a big problem, and there was absolutely no need to hold a special meeting to study countermeasures during the battle.
But Qu Mao insisted on convening a meeting, and not only to discuss the fall of the sky island, but also to discuss other aspects of war response.
In desperation, the heroes had no choice but to prepare to hold a response meeting at night. Perhaps the deployment and response of the entire war will undergo some adjustments.
