I thought that everything should be under control, but suddenly I felt that I had fallen into the trap laid by Luo Zhengdao, and the chagrin and shame in Modo Heishui's heart was indeed not pretended, even if he turned around and immediately wiped out Will Needham's privateer fleet, and then completely destroyed the human settlements on Wake Reef. (Please search, or enter directly to see the latest chapter) Sitting on a military advantage of dozens of times but suffering heavy losses, the thought of presenting this disastrous victory to the front of the military bosses, Modo Heishui, who felt that his future was not bright, was not relaxed in any way.
"There's a fire right in front of you!"
"That's ......"
When he heard the loud shouts of the lookout on the flagship's mast, Modo Blackwater took the monocular from the adjutant's hand, and then all its expressions seemed to freeze at this moment, leaving only the green tendons on his forehead to show how bad the goblin commander was at the moment.
Not long ago, with the help of the new magical curiosity "True Knowledge Crystal Ball" sponsored by the Elven Federation, which obtained a long-range vision superior to that of the enemy, the privateer fleet under the command of Luo Zhengdao launched a standard wave of raids against the unsuspecting goblin transport fleet. It is clear from the fact that the pirates are not focusing on the relatively mobile and nimble goblin warships, but on the bulky transport ships loaded with heavily armed goblin soldiers and supplies such as munitions. When Modo Blackwater rushed back in a hurry, the precious time it had lost to prevent the tragedy from happening, and the goblins could see a scene as hell on earth.
More than two-thirds of the goblin carriers had disintegrated and sunk, and the ones that had narrowly escaped were in a dilapidated state, with hole-ridden broadside planks covered in scars from stone bullet holes and tears, and tongues of fire and smoke rolling in the cabin seemed to tell the story of how fierce the battle was.
"Ahh I'm going to slaughter that hairless monkey, Will Needham, and I'm going to chop you up and feed it to the dogs. The whole army attacked and bloodied Wick Reef. β
Seeing that the situation of heavy casualties is irreparable, Modo Blackwater, who is almost going crazy, can't change the cruel reality with hatred and bleeding from the root of his teeth. Tactics are correct because they are successful, and strategies are successful because they are right, and this is the law of war that is as simple as it is cruel.
Ten minutes ago, I saw from a distance that the main force of the goblin fleet came to the rescue, and the pirate fleet, which had completed the various targets, chose to retreat immediately without hesitation, and fought hard with the enemy, which is not the way of combat that pirates who are accustomed to bullying the weak and afraid of the hard.
With no time to pursue a well-fed pirate fleet, the Goblin Fleet's top priority is to extinguish the fires on the transports, save those who have fallen overboard, and evacuate the surviving soldiers and sailors from the capsizing transports. The complicated aftermath work forced the goblin fleet, which had shrunk by nearly half in size, to stay in place for most of the day, barely finishing the aftermath, and when Modo Blackwater embarked on the long journey to Wake Reef again, it could no longer find the fierce spirit in its heart that looked at the world when the oath was made, but added a little anger and helplessness.
No matter how much the goblins looked down on humans before this, especially the human nobles who had the courage to fight among themselves and were afraid of foreign wars, now facing the grim reality of blood, they must all admit a basic fact. Will Needham, the Earl of Froe, who was considered to be very good at escaping, was also a very formidable opponent, fierce as a jackal, cunning as a fox, and tenacious and determined, and if the goblins did not fight against him, they could be bitten back at any time.
In front of the goblin fleet, the outline of the coastline of Wake Reef was clearly visible to the naked eye, and the news from the lookout did not make Modo Blackwater feel happy in the slightest, and it frowned as it paced back and forth on the deck, muttering:
"Why can't you see any humans? What tricks are they playing? Is it a deliberate attempt to show weakness? Think that not resisting will make me hesitate? β
Modo Blackwater's lieutenant and several fleet staff officers whispered to the goblin commander, Jianyì:
"Your Excellency, the two spies we sent were disconnected with only a few simple messages, and we don't know exactly how the human army is going to fight."
There is no need to be reminded of this matter, Modo Blackwater knows it in his own heart, it thinks about it, and said:
"Didn't the scout leave a clue on the docks?"
The goblin spears who had arrived at Wake Reef before the large army had landed an hour earlier6, and they didn't know much more about the human resistance than Modo Blackwater, after all, the humans were carrying out an organized and planned retreat, leaving not many clues, only the news that they had moved people and supplies to the Inner 6 area was conclusive.
"The scouts have now found a simple paved stone road, most of which has been demolished, this road leads to the heart of the desert, and our spearheads are searching inward 6 areas separately, and I believe that detailed information will be transmitted soon."
Hearing this, under the scorching sun, Modo Heishui squinted his eyes and nodded slightly, and said:
"Well, let's start uninstalling! If you have to brace yourself, this battle will not be easy. β
In the Chinese art of war in the old world, there was an iron law called "half-crossing and attacking", and an army that was busy carrying out the 6 operations would inevitably fall into the disadvantageous position of being vulnerable to attack, and even if it was not deliberately indulging itself at the subjective level, it would be difficult to avoid the disadvantage of distraction. In the final analysis, it is not easy for everyone to be able to do one thing at a time without delaying the ability to do two things wholeheartedly, let alone to carry out complex organizational activities such as reorganizing the army and unloading equipment. Even if you board 6 without disturbing, it is not a trivial matter that can be easily handled, and if the enemy army that has been prepared for a long time suddenly attacks, it is impossible to say, the side of Deng 6 will definitely be caught off guard.
At some point, the pirate fleet, which quietly circled behind the goblin fleet with the help of rain and mist, was now hiding behind a chaotic reef and anchored and waiting, ready to pounce on the enemy at any time.
When Luo Zhengdao saw the busy scene of the Goblin Fleet Organization Deng 6 from the picture provided by the "True Knowledge Crystal", like an ant moving, he showed a long-lost satisfied smile, he turned to his subordinates waiting on the deck and raised his arms and shouted:
"Very good, the goblin has taken the bait, let's get moving! This time we're going to let those greenskins know that humans aren't easy to bully. β
At the sound of the order, five pirate warships set sail one after another, and these mighty and elegant Yaling warships suddenly emerged from behind the reef group less than two nautical miles away from the harbor of Wake Reef, realizing that they were at risk of being blown up, and the goblin fleet was in chaos. Unexpectedly, Modo Heishui, who was dripping with cold sweat, jumped to his feet in a hurry, and yelled:
"Stop those pirate ships, cover the transports, and fire! Shoot back now! β
In the hurry, how much combat power the goblins wielded can only be said to be better than nothing, and the pirate fleet that had been prepared for a long time approached the rear of the goblin fleet, and after the pirate battleship pushed the gun door open, the black hole of the cannon pointed at the goblin fleet on the shore.
"Knock knock ......"
An 18-pound stone projectile fired from the pirate fleet flew towards the flagship Raven, and the goblin lieutenant, sensing the danger, flew up and knocked down Modo Blackwater, and the adjutant pressed his whole body hard against the goblin commander while shouting:
"Protect Your Excellency the Commander!"
When a sailboat goes from moored to sailing, it's not the old world car ignition that can hit the gas pedal and hit the road, and straightening out the intricate rope system is not something that can be done in three or two minutes.
At this time, being pressed to the deck by his subordinates, listening to the sharp whistling sound of the whistling cannonballs constantly passing over his head, Modo Blackwater's hideous expression of gnashing teeth did not help.
The ideal is very plump, the reality is very skinny, this joke from the old world may make the goblins empathize, and the most tearful point is that the Luo Zhengdao fleet has no intention of going head-to-head. The pirate warships, which were full of the mysterious art style of Yaling from head to toe, were like light dancers, passing the goblins from the periphery of the 6 fleet, and the sharp and furious cannon fire poured down like peeling potatoes, and every staggering between the two sides would cause the goblins to suffer huge losses. Whenever the pirate ship sailed past, only a large white smoke of burning stone pine powder was left on the sea, and the heavy stone shells that fell so densely that the goblin fleet turned on their backs, and they couldn't raise their heads at all.
The few goblin warships on the periphery who were in charge of guarding did not fall into the tragic scene of this massacre behind the chrysanthemum, but they also panicked, the most important task at present was to cover their own 6 troops, as a result, they could not stay away from the dock to pursue the enemy, and they had to maneuver in the increasingly crowded and chaotic fleet to avoid pirate shelling, and the scene was chaotic like porridge in a boiling pot.
After several setbacks, the goblin flagship Raven finally completed all the work of setting sail, and it was not easy for the huge warship to start moving slowly.
Modo Blackwater, who was repeatedly slapped in the face by Luo Zhengdao and held back his resentment, locked onto the largest Avenger battleship in the pirate fleet with a telescope, and shouted viciously:
"Give the signal, all the ships that move, and follow me after Will Needham."
Hearing this, the goblin staff officers could no longer sit still, and nominated one of the most senior in the military to negotiate with the commander Modo Blackwater, and he said earnestly:
"Your Excellency, this may be another trap laid by pirates!"
Modo Heishui, who was so angry that he was deflated, glared at the other party dissatisfied, but it really didn't have the courage and confidence to pat his chest and say that it would definitely not be a trap, saying that Luo Zhengdao dug a pit and let it fall, this is more than once! After a slight hesitation, the big goblin commander suddenly asked rhetorically:
"Have you calculated how much time it will take to complete Login 6?"
The goblin staff officer, whose beard was gray, looked at his companions and replied in a deep voice:
"Only half of the troops have now completed the 6 climb, and the rest will take more time to get ashore, Your Excellency Commander."
