Eagle Flag of Epirus
Vol 4 Chapter 27: Fire of the Sea
"Sure enough, it's such a boring method. It seems that these Venetians are really very confident!" Justin Nee sneered slightly. He was not in the safe city of Wiscari Castle, but was on the front line. Waiting for the Venetian fleet to throw itself into the net. He had guessed that the Assassin Assassins would not let this opportunity pass. It must be said that it was a means that people could have expected, but in order to get the Venetians in the game, Justinian deliberately revealed it. flaw.
And now the Venetian fleet has entered the trap he prepared for them.
I saw the foremost Venetian warship sailing towards the river bank, releasing the springboard, and the leading troops of archers roared into the shallows, raising the bow high to keep the bowstring dry, and to prevent the Byzantine army from coming back to attack them at any time. These pirates rushed to the narrow beach quickly. At this time, if there is a defender on the city shooting arrows or throwing falling rocks, it will cause great casualties.
Ranieri is also carefully watching the movement on the city. Once it is a trap, he will immediately withdraw his army. After all, he is mobilizing the army privately. Even if he is the nobleman of the Dandoro family, he cannot afford the casualties. Much price. If the loss is too great or even returned without success, then the political opponents in the parliament will make things difficult for him, and it will be even more difficult for Ranieri to let the Republic ask the Holy See for excommunication for his father.
But the soldiers on the warship ahead had landed in a narrow place, and no defenders came out. This allowed Ranieri to finally breathe a sigh of relief. Only the Venetian soldiers rushed down the river bank, and the horses’ iron hoofs stepped across the shallows, splashing. Splash, they have been waiting for a long time, it's time to rush into the city to show some color to those arrogant Greeks. Almost all Venetians think so. Since they captured Constantinople, the Venetians have never expanded like it is now. In their eyes, the Mediterranean is no longer the Roman sea, but their sea.
But what the Venetians didn't know was that Justinian had deliberately arranged all of this. The waves were rushing and the water was deep, and only by hitting them halfway through the waves could the enemy really hurt them.
Hidden in the bay, the small group of Byzantine soldiers led by Justinian looked at the Venetian navy, which was far more numerous than theirs, but did not see that they were afraid. These are the elite of the elite of the Grand Duke Anastasius, so they were handed over to Justinian's command.
"Sure enough, no fireproofing material was applied to the Venetian warship this time." In the night, Justinian tried his best to see the dim shadow of the ship. This Venetian fleet was not wrapped in iron armor like it was when siege of Constantinople. Wear a fireproof pad. This made him finally relieved. What Justinian used was his last killer, the last remaining Greek fire on his body, and he won the bet. Although the Venetian was cautious, he still hadn't put a Wisca on. As the enemy of Libourg, they never imagined that Justinian had Greek fire in his hands that was controlled only by the Byzantine royal family.
And now this ultimate weapon, which the Byzantines called the "fire of guardian" and "fire of the sea", will once again give these Latins a heavy blow.
"Do it!"
At the order of Justinian, the soldiers beside him pushed the small boat full of Greek cupping cans by the night to the Venetian fleet that was still moving unconsciously. This is why Justinian deliberately released the boat. The reason why the other party came in is that the Venetian warship, which has been paralyzed at this moment, is completely close together in a small bay. Justinian seems to have seen the formation of a blazing prairie on the surface of the sea, burning all of it. all.
The small boat followed the current towards the Venetian warship. The goal was so small that the Venetian navy, who had put their attention completely in front, could not even notice that the deadly danger was heading towards them.
At this time Justinian looked at Arslan, who was standing aside behind him, and asked, "How about it, can you shoot it?" Justinian didn't have any doubts about a Turkic archery, but he was on horseback. The people of China have to talk a little bit on the swaying boat.
But Arslan in front of him shrugged easily and said, "It's just a matter of catching!" Zhang said that Zhang bow and arrow aimed at the drifting boat, and his arrowhead had already ignited a flame. The moment the shot passes, the Venetian's ambition will be wiped out with the flames.
"Now--!"
Arslan gave a light slam, and the moment he released the bowstring, the burning feather arrow was like a shooting star stroking beautiful traces in the night sky, and it was very natural to shoot at the small boat full of Greek fire.
At the same time, this also immediately attracted the Venetian's attention. In the night sky, the seemingly faint fire light was extremely conspicuous, and Ranieri, who was standing on the deck, saw it for the first time.
In an instant the man realized that something was wrong. It was definitely not a bow and arrow shot by his own person. There were others in the darkness on the side of the bay~www.wuxiaspot.com~Who are they? Is this arrow a signal of offense? Have you fallen into the trap of the other party? Several thoughts quickly passed through his mind, but then a call sign interrupted his thoughts.
Ranieri could not see the battle ahead, nor could he hear the battle. But there was a chaotic noise in front, and even the two warships collided with each other, and there was a loud tearing noise. How could this happen? Just listen to another huge collision reverberating on the surface of the water, and then The third sound. And every impact sound seemed to hit his heart, making Ranieri uneasy, but the next moment, the scene in front of him completely stunned the man. The soaring fire actually rose into the sky over the ocean, like Leviathan swallowing flames and raging around everything. The place where the flame fell suddenly started to burn, and quickly swallowed several warships. The Venetian wanted to drive. The ship left, but they were unable to move because of the narrow space. The brave sailors of the Venetians did not die in the desperate fight with the enemy. Instead, they were burned to death by the flames at sea. Even if they jumped into the cold water, they would find out. The flames actually formed a flame on the sea, either they were burned into coke or they fell into the water and waited to die slowly.
Is this the fire of divine punishment that the heavenly Father sent down the blazing angels? The lamenting Venetians screamed and prayed in pain, but the fire did not mean to stop at all. Instead, it continued to spread and swallow more ships.
Ranieri, who witnessed this scene, certainly wouldn't think it was a **** divine punishment. He immediately realized why the Byzantines had acted just now, their lips trembled, and the pale man finally remembered what it was.
"Greek fire-this is the **** Greek fire!"
