The East China Sea Fleet knew that they were only slowing down the rise of the Eternal Night Army in the territorial waters.

Their current location is the doorstep of the Eternal Night Commander, and if they are given a little time, they will be able to salvage a relatively intact warship.

Repairing a battleship is much easier than building one.

Not to mention that the Eternal Night Army led the Danube River and captured many of their warships intact.

With less than forty warships, the Eternal Night Commander turned them around.

If a large number of old warships are owned and refitted on this basis, where will the East China Sea Kingdom go then?

This pessimistic atmosphere enveloped the entire East China Sea Fleet and greatly dispelled the joy of their escape from the Danube.

Because they just jumped from a small encirclement to another, a larger encirclement.

This battle with the Eternal Night Army Leader is undoubtedly a blow to the head.

It completely woke up the subjects of the East China Sea Kingdom, who were immersed in the dream of a maritime empire.

Their dreams of empire seemed ridiculous at this time.

They had always thought that they had surrounded the Eternal Night from the sea.

Now it seems that it is completely reversed, and it is the Eternal Night Army that has surrounded the East Sea Kingdom from the land.

Maybe at the beginning, people want to treat them as big fish in the pond in their back garden, and wait until they are fat enough, and then carry them on the board and slaughter them to make soup and drink.

The war losses of the East China Sea Kingdom have been counted one after another.

When he first set out on the expedition to Stubbin, he led the main fleet with three dreadnought-class schooners, eight dreadnought-class schooners, fifty Hurricane-class and seventy wavebreaker-class ships, and more than 2,000 small and modified warships.

When they withdrew from the Danube, the three dreadnoughts-class sailing ships were all captured intact by the Eternal Night Commander.

Eight dreadnought-class schooners went to two, one was sunk on the Danube, and one sank on the breakout road.

There are only twenty-three Hurricane-class battleships left, and the survivors are more or less injured, and most of its head damage is the ten that were previously mine-breaking warships, although they assisted the East China Sea Fleet in breaking through the ground thorn reef array and the black powder mine array, but they themselves were also targeted by the Dragon Roar, and none of them could break through from the Danube River.

Combined with the capture and sinking of the Eternal Night Commander on the Danube River, and the previous misty melee, less than half of the surviving warships have survived.

There are thirty-four Wave-breaking battleships left, and their situation is slightly better than that of the Hurricane-class, but they are also relatively limited, but there are only a few planted directly on the Danube River, and the real damage is a melee with their own people.

As for small and converted warships, there were already less than eight hundred.

For Stubbin, these warships themselves belong to the existence of cannon fodder, charging at the front, retreating at the end, and any dangerous tasks are carried out by them, not to mention the subsidiary characteristics of the special shells of the Eternal Night Army, which are not easy to use against those large warships, and against them, the lethality is one by one, and heavy damage is inevitable.

The rescue fleet led by Prince Leiden, although the losses were not so heavy, they also reached thirty percent.

The two fleets were combined into one, and the number of warships did not reach the peak size of the main force of the East China Sea Fleet.

Such a terrifying proportion of battle losses made the monarchs and ministers of the East China Sea Kingdom tremble for a while.

And that's not counting the detachment led by Captain Shia Moore, where there was one dreadnought-class schooner, two dreadnought-class schooners, fifteen Hurricane-class, twenty Wavebreaker-class, and a thousand large and small warships.

If they defect en masse.

Then it's not a question of war damage.

It's a question of one positive and one negative.

The sea strength of the Eternal Night Army has entered a blowout state, and the sea strength has directly increased by three or four times.

The military strength of the East China Sea State will be cut in half directly, not to mention, after the defeat, it will be accompanied by a series of complications.

The East China Sea country itself did not have a stable situation on the island, and it completely collapsed.

Those captains and captains who responded to Stubbin's call and led the warships and crews on the expedition not only did not get the expected gains, but also lost their troops, and they would put a series of losses and sins on Stubbin, the ruler of the East China Sea Kingdom.

The East China Sea Kingdom claims to be a country, but in essence, they are still the pirate group called the Third Fleet.

It is a typical example of being able to be rich and noble, but not to suffer.

When they have enough common interests, they can come together under the same banner.

When faced with a great threat, they can fall apart at any time.

Sure enough, the Eternal Night Commander would not let the East China Sea Fleet return so easily.

After all the warships were replenished, they immediately turned into a predator shark again, taking advantage of their speed advantage to circle around the East China Sea Fleet.

This time, the Dragonroar followed as the flagship of the Explorer fleet.

Most of the time, the Dragon's Roar was just watching from afar, let alone the magic guide cannon, and even the ship's cannon was rarely used.

But the more this happens, the more mysterious it becomes, because the East China Sea Fleet has already experienced its horror and power, and the greater the deterrent power it brings, like a thousand pounds of stone, pressing on people's hearts and mouths to breathe.

In this way, the Explorer Fleet followed the East China Sea Fleet for two days and two nights, and on the third night, there was a large disturbance within the East China Sea Fleet.

Sean, who was listening to the post-battle summary on the Danube Plain, immediately shifted his main consciousness to the Dragon Roar and asked, "What's going on?"

Admiral Arnold, the captain of the Explorer Fleet, reported in detail the news he had in detail: "The wind direction changed abruptly tonight, and a small number of warships in the East China Sea Fleet suddenly puffed up their sails and took advantage of the wind direction to break away from the main channel of the East China Sea Fleet. ”

"What does the general think?" asked Sean rhetorically, looking impassing.

"My preliminary speculation is that our tactics of continuous pressure have achieved initial success, the morale within the East China Sea Fleet has collapsed, and some people have moved their minds to disembark from the battered warship of the East China Sea Kingdom, in order to avoid the spread of this dangerous thought, Stubin will inevitably use extreme high-pressure means to suppress them, if we take the initiative at this time, intercept Stubbin's pursuit fleet, and let these half-hearted people go, they will help us further divide the East China Sea Kingdom, so that we can completely eat them in the future。 ”

Admiral Arnold had obviously considered this question before this, and replied in a clear manner, "But there is another possibility here, that is, Stubin was forced by our fleet to set up a situation to lure us to take the initiative, and when we interspersed the past, the pursuing fleet in front turned around and stabbed us." ”

"What do you estimate the size of the two possibilities?" Sean continued.

"Nine open, there are nine possibilities for splitting and defecting, and there is only one possibility for being a trap, after all, they have already seen the psychedelic white fog, and this trick is good for us. General Arnold conservatively estimated.

"The general means that he wants to hit a dozen!" Sean used an affirmative sentence instead of an interrogative sentence.

"Yes!" General Arnold nodded, and then showed a little shyness, "It's just that the explorer fleet is related to the situation in the entire East China Sea, once you are ambushed and hurt too much, the advantage that you have managed to plan is very likely to be lost again, so I want to ask the lord to help us sit in the town, just in case." ”

"Understood. Sean nodded knowingly and said, "Let's get moving!"

"Thank you, Lord. General Arnold gave a military salute and walked away quickly.

General Arnold invited Sean over, and he was really just sitting down.

The Explorer fleet had already drawn the two sides close and was ready to attack.

Just like the others, although Sean has a clone to reside on the Dragonroar, it does not mean that all the affairs and decisions of the explorer fleet are all in his hands.

Doing so is not only distracting one's own energy, but also not conducive to cultivating the autonomy of the marshals and generals.

It didn't take long for General Arnold's analysis to bear fruit.

The internal contradictions of the East China Sea Fleet have indeed begun to intensify, and it is not to take the opportunity to lay out a counterattack on the Explorer Fleet.

After the Explorer Fleet came forward to intercept it, not only did the detached warships run faster than rabbits, but they even triggered a chain reaction.

Some warships of the East China Sea Fleet, which were originally in the process of pursuit, also joined the ranks of the escape.

Just like General Arnold said before, the East China Sea Country is now an out-and-out broken ship, not to mention this broken ship, and there are strong enemies on the side.

There are only a few people who want to live and die with this broken ship, and after a long time, the passengers on it naturally have to plan for themselves.

In particular, the news that Captain Shia Moore led the detachment to defect en masse and led a sneak attack on the Great Bay Islands spread within the East China Sea Fleet, which caused further damage to their already low morale.

In this case, the East China Sea Fleet simply could not continue to carry out the plan of the interception, the defector Captain Shia Moore.

Let's not talk about whether we can directly intercept Xia Moore on the vast sea, even if it is intercepted.

Will it be Stubin who pulls back more defectors?

Or did Captain Shia Moore bewitch more people from the East China Sea Fleet to defect?

It's still unknown!

Stubin and Donghaiguo can't afford to gamble anymore.

Although I don't want to admit it, this time the naval battle in the East China Sea has ended.

It ended with their East China Sea Kingdom losing their pants.

In order to prevent his lair from being turned upside down by those who wanted to get off the ship, Stubbin had no choice but to order the East China Sea Fleet to return home.

The Explorer Fleet hangs behind them like little tails.

As the two fleets got closer to the Dawan Islands, the farther apart they were, and the fewer sorties they made, and in the end they only circled around the 50 nautical miles of the Dawan Islands, and did not penetrate deep into them.

Although the Explorer Fleet bears the name of the Explorer, its Supreme Commander, General Arnold, is a cautious man.

Many times, it is not about winning, but about losing first.

That's why Sean put him in this position.

Because the Explorer Fleet is too important to the Eternal Night Lord.

This is their only sea power at the moment.

For every little loss, their sea power weakens a little.

Even Captain Sia Moore led the detachment to surrender en masse.

That was also based on the premise that the Eternal Night Warlords had sufficient sea power.

If this force is damaged, even if Xiamore does not lead the team to rebel back to the side of the East China Sea Kingdom, there will be a change in the right to speak, and there will even be a scene of a big bully.

As long as they continue to maintain their current military superiority, it will only be a matter of time before the East China Sea State is eradicated over time.

"Sia Moore, you bastard, I, Stubin Cummins, will be at odds with you in this life, and one day, I will cut your head in my hand and sacrifice it to my people!" Stupin stood at the bow of the ship, gritting his teeth and swearing, the anger in his heart was so hot, the roots of his teeth were bitten so hard, the blood in his gums was about to bite out.

Because they were greeted by a burning Great Bay Island.

It's not one city or one port that's burning, it's countless cities, countless ports are burning, and the smell of barbecue wafts over the entire Great Bay Islands.

Shia Moore not only betrayed, but led the detachment to attack the Great Bay Islands, which was even more desperate than Stubbin had imagined.

Not only did he borrow his family, he bombarded all the important ports of the East China Sea Kingdom, captured the craftsmen and a large number of resident ships here, and set countless fires in the ports and shipyards that could not be taken away.

When Stubin led the East China Sea Fleet back, many ports and shipyards had burned to the ground.

This is not a matter of ten years of hard work for nothing, this is cutting off the roots of their East China Sea Country!

Stubin didn't know that Captain Shia Moore was a little bit of a blame this time.

The reason for this tragedy in the Great Bay Islands is partly the result of the soldiers of the Eternal Night Army, which are mixed with the captain's detachment of the Sia Moore fleet, and on the other hand, the predatory nature of their pirates.

Didn't they do that when they plundered their enemies?

It's just that this time the targets of looting have become themselves.

"Your Majesty, please mourn, anger is useless now, and most importantly, where do we go from here?" asked the loyal Captain Lina a question that no one dared to ask, but was extremely concerned.

As soon as this question came out, everyone fell on Stubbin.

"You, what, what, what, what?" said Stubbin, word for word.

Everyone could hear the suppressed anger behind this, and everyone couldn't help but wipe a sweat for Captain Lena, this question seemed to be asked at the wrong time, and this moment was the node when Stubin was most angry.

Captain Lena seemed to be ignoring the worried eyes around him, and Stubbin's anger and said: "The current situation has become clear, with the addition of Shiamoor, plus the warships captured from us, the Eternal Night Warlord will have enough sea power, before they complete the modification of these warships, if we don't make the decision to change the status quo, we have only two fates, one is to obediently join the Eternal Night Warlord, and the other is to be completely wiped out by them." ”

"......" Stubbin opened his mouth, but he couldn't spit out a rebuttal.

Because in the face of the cruel reality, any argument is self-deception.

Even an ordinary sailor crew member can see how big the Eternal Night Commander's advantage is over the East China Sea Country, let alone Stubbin.

In the end, Stubin said angrily with a little annoyance: "Do you want this king to give up the Great Bay Islands and give up the foothold we have won so hard?"
