Chapter 94: The Battle of the Edward Islands (1)

The afternoon sky was shrouded in gunsmoke, the cold waters were covered in the blood of sailors and the wreckage of ships, and this was the site of a naval battle of blood and fire, which took place in the Battle of the Edward Islands in 1827. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Tens of thousands of Scapa admirals from the slave city-states face off against the combined forces of incoming pirates, the Riberian navy, and the undead, throwing ammunition at each other, front-line fleets, and jumping gangs with enemies.

Far away under the escort of many warships, the first-class battle line of the "Dragon King" where Captain Rohm was located was firing unhurriedly, and hundreds of guns took turns to ravage the enemy in the distance.

It's just that the pirate king doesn't seem to have noticed that although the Scapa fleet occupies an advantageous combat position in advance and forms the most combat-effective battle line of this era, the fleet size is really a bit large, and the battleships running in the front have bitten into the flank of the enemy's fleet, and the battle is gradually becoming a circle.

"Lord Rohm, the results of the seventeenth round of artillery firing are out, we have lost two second-class battleships and four cruisers, the seventh artillery group cannot fight, please retreat."

"Tell them not to try to escape, let the air cavalry be sure to entangle the undead air force, and send messengers for the Charlotte fleet to come over quickly for reinforcements!"

"Understood!"

With Rom's orders, the badly damaged ships had to wail and continue the battle, and the number of ships at the front of the gang battle was rapidly increasing, and Scapa's sailors and soldiers were well prepared, but the enemy was not a salted fish.

Although these combined fleets are not tacit cooperation, the battlefield is chaotic, there are still undead, and the hand-to-hand combat is gradually tilting towards the other side, and the artillery team that gets this situation has no choice but to fire at their teammates.

"Hear me clearly, in this case, you have to - fire!"

Captain Rom, dressed in an Admiral Scarpa coat, held a telescope in one hand to instruct the officers beside him, and with the other he lit the cannon.

The officers who were instructed by the captain could only look at the friendly warship sadly, and were hit by the shells fired by this gun in a few seconds, followed by the other warships around them according to the launch coordinates just now, and in less than a minute, the friendly troops in that position turned into a pile of wreckage, dyeing the sea water red.

Although most sailors mourn their future, and the gods are absolutely needed to survive a battle of this magnitude, and many have offered memorabilia from the Church of the Sleeping Moon to express their sorrows, the battle does not wait for them to pray for the end.

At this time, the combined fleet had gathered two-thirds of its warships, and many of the battleships that had fallen behind were coming one after another, and in order to avoid the enemy's battle line and counterattack, they desperately marched to the enemy's flank, trying to fight a wave of counterattacks around the rear.

Of course, the Scarpa fleet could not let the other side succeed, and as I said before, the two sides were like two greedy snakes around each other, constantly devouring the unlucky ones who were bitten.

But the big man in the combined fleet, the black-robed man couldn't stand this result for a long time, and everyone from the ship commander to the sailors was trembling with fear, and he had already bowed to the undead forces!

"Waste, it's all a bunch of waste! A waste that even a bunch of guts waste fleets can't beat! "This one seems to have a little high blood pressure, and his tone is not good at all, but the spell in his hand has not stopped, and now the air force of the United Fleet and some marines are supported by this big guy.

Just as he was scolding the street, the air force composed of the undead was frantically strangling with the air cavalry, and the air cavalry of the city-state was the same as the same kind in the countries of the old continent, equipped with a lot of magic equipment and various magic items, and was not as powerless in the face of the undead as ordinary armies.

But after all, they are at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, not to mention that when facing a large monster like the Ghost Dragon, the weapons of the traditional air cavalry are somewhat inappropriate.

After all, the power of javelins and harpoon guns is a bit small, and even if there is a certain degree of waste wood in a large monster like a ghost dragon, it is not so easy to deal with.

The black-robed man noticed the disadvantage of the undead, so he could only curse in his heart, but he said encouraging words, "Soldiers, the time has come for the gods to test you!" If you want to be promoted and make a fortune, or realize your personal wishes, you can do it in one fell swoop! Cheer me up! ”

Of course, this guy thinks that no matter what the situation is, as long as he can get his hands on the Pirate King's things, he must definitely use all the waste wood for sacrifice, so as to ease his anger a little.

In any case, the officers and men of the Combined Fleet, who were inspired or frightened by the horror of the undead, still cheered up and began to fight back, and the magic and firearms were prepared like the enemy rushing over, completely ignoring the possibility that they might be broken to pieces in the next second, perhaps because the black-robed people and the undead were more terrifying than the enemy's artillery......

As I said before, the Scapa Air Force firmly grasped the air supremacy at the beginning, and the undead did not have the slightest temper to speak of, but the living beings have physical limitations after all, not to mention that now the enemy has begun to fight back and the black-robed man has been summoning the undead.

In the sky filled with gunsmoke, the Scarper Air Force, which had been fighting for a long time, gradually fell into disadvantage, even if their previous brilliant results were not inferior to the Air Force of Charlotte's fleet, but now......

"Damn! The number of enemies is still growing! "Holding a telescope to observe the battle, carefully identifying it on the deck, Captain Rohm's face became ugly, the air force probably can't count on it, but in the absence of air supremacy, this naval battle is difficult to fight.

"My lord, please hurry up and think of a way, the blood of the air cavalry is going to be drained!"

"This ...... After all, I'm running by sea, and I'm helpless if my major is not right! ”

"But you're the Pirate King! Isn't there a way? ”

"Yes, yes...... I just don't know if it's useful, and I don't have a place to reimburse my expenses with that thing......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You old bastard, do you want all of Scarpa's soldiers dead!? Hurry up and take it out, or the musket and knife will definitely let you know what the reimbursement is! ”

So, in order to save the precarious situation and the rampant Scarpa's officers and soldiers, the pirate king RΓΆm had to take out his own evidence of the overlord of the seven seas.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Use it, although it's a bit of a shame......"

That's right, the ashamed Roma has in his hands the proof of the overlord of the seven seas, the "Dream Windmill", a beautiful thing like a child's toy.

It's just that this thing has a special effect like the dreadnought banner in Lorraine's hand, and I saw RΓΆhm whispering a few words of prayer, and the windmill slowly turned, and everyone around seemed to be able to hear a pleasant music.

It didn't take long for all the captains to notice a strange phenomenon: the wind direction had changed.

This was pleasant news for the captains of Scarpa, as the sails were blown up by a sudden gust of wind and gradually increased in speed, while the enemy, on the contrary, had to withstand more attacks in the upwind position.

With such a treasure in hand, Rom deserves to be called the existence of the Pirate King, his command ability is above the level, and with the help of the weather, it can almost be said that he has a great advantage, and this wave is going to be stable! (To be continued.) )
