In the wartime headquarters located in the port area, Luo Zhengdao explained his combat intentions to his subordinates to a huge nautical chart centered on Wake Reef, not long ago, the small boats that went out fishing appeared to be approaching the goblin fleet of Wake Reef, and these frightened guys seemed to have to flee back, and the bad news reached Luo Zhengdao's ears as soon as possible. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!) Although he had expected that there would be such a day, Luo Zhengdao threw out the plan he had prepared in advance, but he didn't expect that the response at the venue was cold at the moment, and this meeting really embarrassed him.
Seeing that the atmosphere was silent, for a long time, the boatswain Zola Hegel spoke:
"Your Excellency, will our fortress hold out until then?"
Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao lowered his head a little depressedly, he couldn't guarantee this, in fact, it was not only that he was difficult to pack tickets, but anyone in today's position could not guarantee anything. In the final analysis, war is a special field full of contingencies, and those battle plans on paper, no matter how perfect they may seem, no matter how logically impeccable. However, it is difficult to say what will happen in the actual implementation process. There is a saying in the old world that once you go to the battlefield, you will realize that all the ideas in the previous battle plan are wrong, and this is the inevitable gap between the interaction of the real environment and the imaginary ideal.
After a short period of depression, Luo Zheng Dao quickly regained his confidence, he raised his head and scanned the participants with a firm gaze, and said in a low tone:
"We can only choose to fight to the end, there is no other way out, you don't think about running away without a fight, do you?"
In this combat operation against Wake Reef, the goblins used as many as 30,000 troops, and against the Luo Zhengdao fleet, which only had a few thousand members, the goblins put on such a large military lineup that could be said to have picked up a sledgehammer and smashed eggs, which showed that they had the idea of killing with one blow, and Modo Blackwater did not have the potential intention to use this to establish his authority.
Although the human settlers living on Wake Reef are numerous, the rabble have no military training, let alone the courage and determination to resist the powerful goblin crusade. Luo Zhengdao's mind is extremely clear, rashly pulling these people into the battlefield is not even worth cannon fodder, it would be very good if they could not cause chaos to their own camp, if they were expected to suddenly show that they were brave enough to withstand the attack frenzy of the goblin army, then it was better to seize the precious time before the war and start praying, a meteorite immediately fell from the sky and smashed all the goblins to death, at least the probability of survival of this event is higher than the former.
The tactical support points for holding Wake Reef are none other than the newly completed fortress system, the mage tower, and the extremely harsh desert climate of the island, and as long as the war can drag on for a little longer, the cruel nature will bury the goblin army in this vast sandy sea for the defenders.
Reiterating the truth that Wake Reef cannot be abandoned, Luo Zhengdao analyzed the winning factors in his plan to show everyone, and it took a lot of effort to persuade his subordinates to agree with this plan of action that was on the tip of the knife.
When the combat meeting was coming to an end, Luo Zhengdao, who had a sigh of relief, rolled up the parchment chart, straightened his waist, looked at his subordinates and said:
"Alright, let's get moving!"
The hole card of the magic card master is full of all kinds of incredible magic, and it is also a trump card that Luo Zhengdao is unwilling to open from beginning to end, not because this card is not powerful enough, but because he weighs his small body and can't withstand the curse of the Aragami anymore.
Although this body has not changed from the outside, it is still a young man in his prime, but Luo Zhengdao knows very well in his heart that he can sense that with the repeated work of the curse of the desolate god, the vitality of ** is constantly lost, which is a damage that is difficult to repair even if the magic card is repaired. In the past, Luo Zhengdao stayed up late for a few days and didn't sleep for a few nights, but now he will feel sluggish if he doesn't sleep all night, and if he stays up a little longer, the situation will be doubly strict. There is no doubt that aging is the ultimate killer that mortals cannot resist, and if the Aragami curse continues to be frequent, Luo Zhengdao will die on it sooner or later. The problem at the moment is that the shape is stronger than people, and when life and death hang by a thread, he has to come out and bear the consequences, and it is better to give a suspended death sentence than to be shot on the spot!
Seeing that the menacing goblin fleet had arrived at his doorstep, and tried his best to persuade the pirates to take the initiative, Luo Zhengdao chose to take the initiative to intercept the goblin fleet before the enemy arrived.
Sinking a goblin troop carrier in the open sea would be equivalent to taking out the bloodthirsty and tough goblin soldiers of 1,800 in one fell swoop, which is much easier than waiting until the goblins have landed on 6 Wake Reef and then annihilating them one by one, and it can also buy some more preparation time for the one-eyed dragon Faul Chopin, who is left behind to defend the island.
"Lift the anchor, raise the sails!"
At this time, with Luo Zhengdao's order, dozens of sailors pushed the winch on the deck to raise the anchor chain, and the battleship Avenger, which had opened all its sails, slowly sailed away from the pier trestle, and the people who came to the port to see them off became more and more worried, this is an unprecedented battle that determines the direction of fate! Even if the scale of this war may not be amazing, there is no doubt about the severity of the shape, after this battle, whether Luo Zhengdao is a piece of gold-plated brass or real gold that is not afraid of fire, it should be seen at such a critical moment.
In the conference room of the flagship Avenger, facing the pirate leaders gathered around the chart table, Luo Zhengdao danced and said:
“…… In short, our basic tactic is to fight, and we must keep a proper distance from the goblin fleet, and use our long-range artillery advantage as much as possible, and do not leave the greenskins a chance to engage in broadside combat. ”
When Luo Zhengdao said this, he turned his gaze to the half-elf beauty, and said earnestly:
"Vena, I'll leave the work of calculating the ballistics to you."
The half-elf beauty actually wanted to say that this task was too arduous, and she was afraid that she would not be able to do it, but when the words came to her mouth, she also knew that it was too inappropriate to say this, so she temporarily changed her words and said:
"Ahh This is a minor issue, leave it to me. ”
The Yaling Overseer, who was acting as a spectator next to him, looked at Luo Zhengdao with a smile, as if he wanted to mock his lustful inwardness, and after being intimidated by Luo Zhengdao's vicious glare, Sariel Byrne shrugged his shoulders, as if to show that he had no malicious intent.
At the moment when the enemy is present, the morale can not be discharged, no matter how military Luo Zhengdao is, he understands this truth, and borrows the method of the old world John Bull to meet the Ox Warrior fleet, and does not give his subordinates a chance to raise objections, he continues to talk to himself loudly:
"Do you have any questions? If not, then go back to your respective ships and get ready for battle! ”
Seeing this scene, the pirates no longer knew what Luo Zhengdao was thinking, so their heads must have been caught in the door. As a result, the silent crowd slowly dispersed, and it seemed that there was only one thing left to fight.
For thousands of years after the demise of the First Goblin Empire, the goblins have been drilling ravines and setting up cottages in the inner 6 areas of the main 6, and they are dedicated to fighting guerrilla warfare with human dynasties. To say that the goblins are a group of landlubbers may be too mean, but compared to their razor-sharp blades on the main 6, when they came to the Aether Sea, where the combat environment is very different, this group of fierce and bloodthirsty professional warriors suddenly seems to be much more fleshy.
Rao is so, and the goblins are reluctant to send human servants to participate in the war, similar to the Boyle family fleet, the goblins generally hold a complex mentality that they inevitably want to use these people based on practical interests, and at the same time instinctively despise them extremely.
Similar to this sea battle in which the regular goblin fleet was thrown, if you ask those goblin commanders casually, they don't approve of accepting the participation of human servant armies, and they are actually mixed with human rape in a sacred war, which is too damaging to the honor of goblin soldiers.
Having said that, the two devils, accustomed to being attached to the goblins, tried their best to prove their allegiance to their new masters, and before the Modo Blackwater fleet could be dispatched, a large amount of supplies, weapons and ammunition were sent to the labor army. As the saying goes, if you take someone's hand, Modo Blackwater can't take these people's rape things for nothing, and then take out their hands and throw them back to slap your face, it's too unjust to do this, so it can only reluctantly pinch its nose and accept a group of human volunteers to participate in the war. At this moment, there are more than twenty warships and transports from these human servant forces in the huge ship group under the command of the Great Goblin Commander, of course, no matter what point of view, the combat power and fighting will of these guys are very questionable!
When Modo Blackwater saw through the telescope's vision the sails of the pirate fleet flying the black skull flag gradually becoming clear, it did not even hesitate at all, and immediately ordered:
"Signal, let those humans go first, it doesn't matter if they win or lose."
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander."
Seeing the pirate fleet appear, and then receiving the flag signal from the flagship, the faces of the traitors turned green. These human servants with complex origins and different minds are not a bunch of idiots, and it is not a secret how the goblin army does not welcome them, and even Modo Blackwater himself has no idea of hiding his true intentions. Now that the goblin fleet is even more clear that it wants to push them to the front line as cannon fodder, what kind of discipline and dignity will these guys who have betrayed their own race have to fight to the end? It is conceivable that they did not dare to disobey the military order, and they were not willing to be sent to death, so they were slowly approaching the outpost firefighting area, while pondering where it was more appropriate to run away.
These guys barely put their minds on how to fight the pirates, the warships of the human servant army broke away from the goblin fleet team, and before they could join the outpost search fleet, they suddenly killed a group of battleships from the sea area near the right side of the battlefield that scattered rain and mist, this is the pirate fleet team commanded by Luo Zhengdao.
In fact, the fleet that was fighting with the goblin outpost warships in the distant sea was a group of pirates hired by Luo Zhengdao temporarily before the war, and he did not hesitate to spill a lot of gold coins to keep these colleagues who heard the news and came to Wake Reef to try to sell the stolen goods.
Extremely accurately seizing the interlude in the movement of the enemy's troops, Luo Zhengdao suppressed his urgency and shouted loudly:
"The whole fleet is ready for a salvo!"
