The 365 Army is right
"The battleship Hero has broken away from the fleet, the cruiser Basenke has sunk, the destroyer Sidding has sunk, and the cruiser Mausser has been seriously wounded......" On Cambridge, the adjutant of the Dreadnought Conquest reported to Lawrence on the loss of the fleet.
With the support of the air force, Elanhill's fleet has performed fairly well so far, losing only a few of its own ships after sinking hundreds of warships and a huge floating fortress.
Compared to the losses of the Demon Fleet, the losses of the Iran Hill Fleet are now completely bearable. Even, it was better than the previous battles, and the results were more brilliant.
"The cruiser USS Kempes has just been hit by a magic cannon, about 100 people have been killed, and the battleship is sinking." At this time, another officer came over and reported what had just happened.
Lawrence was quite satisfied with the current situation, his fleet losses were not huge, and he could completely block these demon warships in front of him.
As long as the current naval battle continues like this, he will definitely be the victorious side in the end. The fleet of those demons could not land, and the victory belonged to the Iran Hill Navy.
At this moment, the Demon Castle floating in the sky, the tops of those towering buildings, the huge magic cannon turrets, began to rotate heavily and slowly. The floating castle was in its own range and was ready to shoot.
"Don't wait! Fire now! "The demon general, who was standing behind the battlements of the city wall, immediately gave the order to open fire.
With his order, the magic cannons on this demon castle all shot out dazzling pillars of magical energy towards the main fleet where Lawrence was located.
These magic cannons are more powerful than those on demon ships, and they seem to be condescending, and they seem to be more accurate when fired.
A cannonball hit the Hero dreadnought, which had slowed down and was wounded, and then the central area of the ship was melted away by the scorching magical energy cannonballs from the magic cannon.
The deck was charred, the steel armor below the deck was scorched and melted, and the Magic Cannon shell pierced through the top armor of the Hero dreadnought, pierced the compartment below, destroyed the boiler chimney line in the middle, and finally scrapped the boiler inside.
The battleship Hero did not explode, after all, as long as the coal-burning battleship was not detonated in the ammunition compartment, the possibility of martyrdom was much smaller.
However, just this blow has already caused serious damage to the Hero. Although the amount of water entering the ship was not much, the hull of the battleship had been severely damaged and deformed, and it had completely lost power.
The huge warship with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons could only stop in place and be beaten when it lost power. And this attack of the floating fortress is far from over.
Another magic cannonball fell, hitting a cruiser directly, blowing it in two.
However, the demons' good fortune ended there: in the next round of attacks, all their ammunition was poured into the sea, and no damage was done.
The battleship Hero was slowly entering the water, and it had no power to break away from the fleet, and had to bear the pressure from the demon fleet alone.
"The Hero must be covered! We can't abandon thousands of soldiers and throw them in the middle of the two armies to be beaten! Lawrence said bitterly.
When he saw that the battleship Hero had lost power and slowed down again, he had a hunch that even if he won this naval battle, he would have to pay a heavy price.
Every sailor is trained and a very important force. This battle will cost thousands of sailors, which is definitely a major loss for the Iran Hill Navy.
"Commander! There's no way we can rescue the Hero! I can only let them persist in fighting until the end! The adjutant choked up as he looked at the battleship Hero, which was burning and smoking.
Everyone knows that if you are reckless and refuse to give up your companions at this time, you will lose more people's lives.
The navy is a branch of the armed forces that is more rational than emotional, and any decision is related to the life and death of thousands of people, and can determine the success or failure of a navy - every commander must make rational decisions, otherwise he will be the sinner of the country.
And this time it is even more serious, if the Iran Hill fleet is buried, it will become a sinner for the entire human race.
You must know that the British Navy once sank three warships in one go by the opponent in order to rescue their comrades who had fallen into the water. As the commander-in-chief of the navy, Lawrence is also a veteran of naval warfare, so naturally he will not make such a mistake.
However, even so, he would still feel distressed, and he would feel that those acquaintances who had fought side by side with him had been killed by the enemy right in front of his eyes.
"Prepare a telegram...... I'll avenge them! I promise, none of these demons will be alive! Lawrence clenched his fists and commanded fiercely, gritting his teeth.
He was ready, this time he must annihilate all these demon warships here, and none of them can be let go.
The adjutant standing beside him didn't move, he stared at the demon battleship in the distance with wide eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
Just when everyone was desperate, the Demon Fleet modified their course, and this abrupt change made Lawrence and the other commanders have an inexplicable feeling.
It stands to reason that the demon should now divide and slice through the human fleet, and then strike at the divided weak fleet to gain greater initiative.
However, the Demon Fleet gave up on the close luck of the battle and the opportunity to sink the battleship Hero.
As they approached Pilippi Island, they suddenly turned around, apparently intending to land on Pilippi Island and cause problems for the human shore defense forces.
"Chief, sir...... Demons, the armada of demons seem to be turning! Finally, the adjutant made sure that there was nothing wrong with his eyes, and then he pointed to the distance and shouted loudly in surprise.
"What do you say? Are you kidding. Picking up his binoculars, Lawrence looked in the direction of the Demon Fleet.
Then, immediately after, he saw that those distant demon warships were actually changing their course. Obviously, the other party did not seem to intend to continue the battle with the main force of Ellan Hill's fleet, and turned to ......
"What? Let me? Putting down the binoculars in his hand, Lawrence, who was still thinking about how to avenge the heroes on the Hero, had an expression of disbelief on his face.
It's not a matter of a gentleman or a gentleman, this is simply a stupid level, let the wounded battleship not attack, and turn to land?
"Hurry up and figure it out for me! What's going on with those bastards of demons? Are they defying our navy? Lawrence asked, a little embarrassed, as he looked at his lieutenant.
In fact, this feeling is shared by everyone many times, that is, when being pursued by the opposite sex, there will be similar thoughts: when being chased, it will be annoying, but if the other party suddenly gives up, it is very unpleasant in my heart.
The demon warships gave up on continuing to attack Irranhill and turned to attack Pilippi Island, and the huge fleet clumsily turned its head under the attack of the three fleets of Iran Hill, like an old man who had had suffered a stroke, trembling down the streets full of cars.
"What is this? What is this? They intend to storm the island of Pilippi under our flanking fire with the fire of our entire navy? Lawrence reconfirmed, laughing.
"I want to ...... That's just the way it is. The adjutant swallowed a mouthful of saliva and replied as he looked at his commander.
He also considered other possibilities, but no matter how much he thought about it from the demon's point of view, there was no way to see such a clumsy tactic as a lure or something else.
It turns out that if a fool makes a mistake, ten smart people may not be able to guess the true intentions of the fool. Who would have thought that the demon general commanded this time would really be crazy enough to fight the landing battle and the naval battle together?
"Concentrate your fire! Attack the opposing fleet! Order the destroyer fleet to maintain the battle line as much as possible, and the demons must break through their defenses if they want to get close to Pirippi Island! In the end, Lawrence didn't come up with any kind of counter-defeat to victory, so he immediately ordered.
"Also, signal the Victory! Fleet Adjusts Course! Bite the main demon fleet and keep firing on the perimeter! Destroy the opponent's living force! With no pause, he continued to command.
Inside the bridge of the destroyer USS Anson, Captain Jason receives an order from the battleship Conquest, the flagship of the main fleet.
Without saying a word, he returned the document to the officer who conveyed the order, and then looked at everyone around him: "Gentlemen, we have no torpedoes, and we can only rely on our own naval guns to block the enemy's battleships!" ”
"Behind us is the island of Piripi, and the territory of the motherland cannot be trampled on! Let those demons die...... Or step on our corpses and go to Pilippi Island! He grinned as he finished speaking, his face full of composure.
His subordinates also laughed along, and everyone seemed to hear the news of the party, and one by one they were very excited: "Let those demons taste our power!" We don't just have torpedoes! Even with naval guns, we can send all those bastards to the bottom of the sea! ”
"Let them let the horses come!" The other officer smiled and said, "This is our chance to avenge the Siding!" ”
Just when they were heroically preparing to fight until the last moment, to die gloriously. Another telegram was sent by the liaison officer.
Opening the message, Captain Jason laughed. He gave the telegram to his men, only to see that it read: "The army has just called, the original text is as follows: 'Let them come, you can't take all the credit, we haven't fired yet.'" 'General Lawnes' view is that the Army is right......
