Chapter 209 Magic and Guns

The allied fleet got into a commotion when they saw the huge main fleet led by Zhang Wei.

In particular, when Zhang Wei discovered that Liu Rengui's fleet was in a stalemate with the enemy, he immediately ordered the Pegasus Knights and Dark Dragon Knights on the ships to take off and provide support.

The Allied fleet saw the flying troops for the first time, and some of their warships were so frightened that they immediately turned around and fled to the south. Although the other warships were in high spirits and brave, they had no choice but to flee south after seeing the Allies turn around and flee.

Liu Rengui originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to chase and kill the enemy fleet and defeat it in one fell swoop.

However, the allied warships advanced and retreated in moderation. Although they were fleeing, they still maintained a certain formation to prevent being attacked by Liu Rengui's warships and Zhang Wei's air forces.

The Pegasus Knights were faster than the Dark Dragon Knights, and they quickly surpassed Liu Rengui's fleet and continued to chase southward. Obviously, the Knight Commander of the Pegasus Knights also wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to win some victories.

The allied warships at the rear soon spotted the Pegasus Knights rushing towards them in full force. They saw the speed at which the Pegasus Knights were approaching them and realized that they had no way of getting rid of these enemies.

So the captains began to gather the soldiers armed with muskets to the rear of the deck, and aimed their guns at the Pegasus Knights flying towards them.

Although Zhang Wei had demonstrated the power of the muskets in this world to the officers and soldiers coming from the first world to support them through Lilith before setting off, many officers and soldiers, especially the knights, were proud of their bravery and did not have enough respect for these muskets.

Zhang Wei was worried that arrogant soldiers would be defeated, so before setting off, he distributed a certain number of magic defense scrolls to each knight, especially the air force. And it was these magic scrolls that saved the Pegasus Knights.

The captains of the Allied forces misjudged the range. When they thought the Pegasus Knights were within range, they gave the order to open fire.

But after all, this is shooting towards the sky, and the effects of gravity, wind resistance, etc. actually affect the range of the musket.

The first round of empty shooting not only reminded the Allied captains to re-estimate the range of their sky shooting, but also frightened the dozen or so Pegasus in the front. Among them were three Pegasus knights, whose Pegasus were too frightened and failed to hold the reins tightly. As a result, they fell off their horses and crashed into the sea.

The remaining Pegasus Knights also hurried to calm the frightened Pegasus. For a moment, the formation of the Pegasus Knights was in chaos, which gave the Allied fleet the opportunity and confidence to prepare for a counterattack again.

Some captains were even so creative as to order their sailors to push the small cannons on the deck that fired shotgun shells to the back of the deck and raise the muzzles, ready to fire at the Pegasus Knights at any time.

The Knight Commander of the Pegasus Knights did not choose to stop despite the disadvantage in the first battle. She ordered her men to use magic defense scrolls and then re-form the formation, determined to avenge the previous defeat.

Magical defense shields of various colors protected the Pegasus Knights and their Pegasus. Following an order from the Captain of the Pegasus Knights, everyone continued to attack the warships of the allied forces at the rear.

The captains of the allied warships were not to be outdone, and after making sure that the Pegasus Knights had entered the range of their muskets, they gave the order to open fire. The bullets fired by the muskets failed to break the magical defense shield on the Pegasus Knights, but the ingenious shotgun had a miraculous effect.

After a cannon shot, several magic defense shields were instantly shattered, and five Pegasus knights and three Pegasus fell directly into the sea.

The other two ownerless Pegasus began to flee like headless flies in panic.

This gunshot caused two consequences.

First, the captains of the Allied warships discovered that small cannons were very effective against these air forces, so other ships also hurriedly moved their own small cannons to the rear of the deck.

Another thing was that the sound of the cannon directly destroyed the courage of the Pegasus Knights to launch an attack. They could only catch the two running Pegasus and rescue the knight who fell into the sea.

Although only two Pegasus were lost in this battle, the morale of the Pegasus Knights was dealt a heavy blow.

What was worse was that Liu Rengui's fleet discovered that the Pegasus Knights had suffered heavy losses and had no choice but to order the ships to slow down to prevent the enemy from taking the opportunity to counterattack.

However, Liu Rengui's cautious behavior made the allied warships behind him think about counterattacking.

Four of the Allied warships were so bold as to turn their bows around and try to take advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack.

More Allied warships also paused their escape and began to wait and see.

Faced with the unfavorable situation, Zhang Wei was suddenly very angry. When he was about to take action himself, he was persuaded by Zhang He beside him.

"My lord, please give them another chance to correct their mistakes." Zhang He pleaded for the air force. Zhang He knew very well how much resources these air forces occupied in the army. If they did not perform well, they would most likely be killed by the Dragon Slaying Sword.

Although Zhang Wei remained silent, he did not take action personally, which meant he agreed to Zhang He's request.

"Waste." The leader of the Dark Dragon Knights mocked the defeated Pegasus Knights when they met head-on.

Although the Pegasus Knights were very angry, no one spoke to refute. After all, they had just been defeated and were too embarrassed to argue.

When the four Allied warships that launched the counterattack saw the Dark Dragon troops flying towards them, they carefully chose to turn their bows and aim their sides at the Dark Dragon troops to increase their firepower coverage.

At the same time, they also moved all the small cannons over, waiting for the dark dragon troops to come and die.

When the leader of the Dark Dragon Knights was about to reach the enemy's firing range, he issued an order to stop. Then, the Dark Dragon Knights broke up into small groups and began to disperse in groups of three. They did not launch an attack immediately, nor did they use magic defense scrolls. Instead, they used attack magic scrolls on the enemy's warships.

A large number of fireballs fell from the sky. Although their accuracy was poor, they caused great trouble to the Allied warships. In particular, these fireballs would ignite the sails of the warships, thereby damaging or even destroying the warships' sailing power.

The musketeers on the deck could only shoot at the sky helplessly, but because of the distance and the movement of the dark dragons, the fireballs could easily hit the warships by taking advantage of the height difference, but the musketeers could not cause substantial damage to the flying dark dragon knights in the air.

Even if a bullet was lucky enough to hit the flying dark dragon, it would not be able to cause any damage to the dark dragon's thick skin. As for the knight, that thing hitting the knight's armor would be like a child throwing a stone at him...
