Hohoo ho!

Emma couldn't help but laugh when she saw the battleship on the opposite side and actually stretched out its wooden oars.

After following Zhao Hongyu's side for so long, the little girl's vision has long since become higher, and she is no longer the little Indian girl who has never seen the world.

That's why she reacted like this.

Sarah, who was standing beside her, like Emma, couldn't help but shake her head.

"It seems that we have won this naval battle, in fact, we don't need to command anything at all, just let those captains play freely, if we can't even win such an opponent, we and those captains can really die."

It's not that Sara thinks highly of herself when she says this.

Instead, she knew how powerful the warships of the Song Empire were.

Born in Europe, where the sea has been developed for hundreds of years, she certainly knows what the strength of a warship is.

The warships of the Song Empire can be said to have surpassed this era by a lot.

And the enemies they encounter today are actually using the backward techniques of the Roman era in naval battles.

Such an enemy, such a backward technique, and tactics.

How could the Imperial fleet, with its new warships, not win.

Even the most elite European fleet of this era will lose when it encounters the Imperial fleet.

Aren't the Dutch and Spaniards in the Caribbean a role model?

Emma looked back at Sarah, who agreed with Sarah's words.

At this time, the little girl Emma was wearing European-style women's clothes and full body armor, and the workmanship was very good.

This armor was completely custom-made by Zhao Hongyu out of bad taste and from virtual time and space.

The armor created by using the techniques of modern technology is not at all comparable to the armor of this era.

Sara was wearing a women's bust and a dark blue dress. She coiled her hair in the back of her head, but she had a bit of the demeanor of 'My King' after maturity, if she still had a big sword, it would be even more like.

All of this comes from Zhao Hongyu's bad taste.

Sara and Emma, however, were very happy with their respective outfits.

Emma is pleased with the armor's defense.

Sarah, on the other hand, was satisfied with the aristocratic atmosphere.

They know that their men are a little careful.

In fact, in them, Zhao Hongyu just did a small cos experiment.

Now it seems that it has actually been quite successful.

"Order, the captains of each ship will open fire on their own to avoid engaging in broadside battles with each other."

Sara gave the order for Emma.

Flag bearers wave signal flags. The order was conveyed.

The captains of the warships who received the order immediately gave the order to leave the fleet one after another.

For a time, all the warships in the direction of the Song Empire's fleet on the sea started moving.

Only the two hoplites belonging to Sara and Emma, as well as their own flagship, remained unmoved.

From the air, after the Song Empire's warships moved, they looked like cranes spreading their wings, and their wings surrounded the flanks of the Maori Dragon Fleet.

If you really want to say what it looks like, then it can only be said that it is a bit like a crane wing array on the sea.

In fact. Those captains weren't trying to make any crane wings.

These guys just want to surround and annihilate the enemy.

It's just that they don't know how to do it themselves.

It's kind of like you're in some kind of formation.

"Rush! Give me a hard punch! ”

The Maori dragon couldn't stop screaming. He felt the speed of the flagship getting faster and faster, and his heartbeat slowly increased.

At this time, on the enemy's side, artillery had become scarce.

At the same time, they also moved positions.

Maori Longzao couldn't help but feel a burst of pride. He thinks he's guessed right.

The enemy's shells have run out, and they can no longer fire on themselves as before.

As long as the opponent's artillery is useless. He was confident that he would defeat the opponent in a broadside battle.

"My lord, the enemy's battleship began to move, and according to observations, it moved very quickly."

Just when Mao Li Longzao was proud, he suddenly came to him with a flag book carrying a small flag and reported.

Nani!?

The enemy's battleship is fast?

Maori Longzao didn't understand a little, this little thing was originally a matter of what to report to himself.

Although he was puzzled, he still picked up the monoculars that he had purchased from the Nanban with a lot of money, put it against his right eye socket and looked at the sea opposite.

In the eyes of the Maori Ryuzo, the sails on the three poles of the foreign warship on the opposite side were opened, and a spinnaker in the bow was also opened, and its warship sailed quickly on the sea.

Just by observing from such a distance, it can be judged that the speed of the opposing warship is not slow.

In the end, it is a general of the sea, and this thing cannot be difficult to make by Maori Dragon.

Hiss!

After estimating the speed of the other party, Maori Longzao couldn't help but gasp.

In his estimates, the speed of the opponent's warships was at least twice that of his own warships.

This is a very worrying thing.

Without him, if the enemy leaves the battlefield at such a speed, he will not be able to effectively intercept it, and at the end of the day, he can only watch the other party leave.

And if the enemy doesn't flee and wants to fight him, how can he get close to the other party and start a broadside battle?

You must know that the speed of the battleship under his command is not as fast as that of the other party.

If you can't catch up with the enemy, you won't be able to fight in close combat.

Maori Longzao's brow furrowed.

And that's not all, the battleships that had sailed to the predetermined encirclement position in the early stage were now turning sideways again and began shelling.

This is what Maori Longzao can't figure out the most.

Baga, how can the other party still be able to open fire, and it is still at such a distance.

Immediately, he thought about the range of the opponent's artillery.

He suddenly turned into a bitter gourd face.

Road wolves, these enemies are really perverted.

Now, Maori Longzao, who feels the pressure, must also admit that his opponent is a very perverted existence.

Besides. He couldn't help but admit it.

They themselves are people who make a living at sea, and they are very clear about things at sea.

Let them say that the other party is inferior to them, then they can't say it.

The Japanese people of this era, compared to later generations, are still a little cheeky, aren't they?

Well, judging from the direction of the opposing warship, they are trying to surround us.

Soon, the Maori dragon made it to the door.

As a general who is proficient in naval warfare, in fact, some things of the imperial fleet are impossible to hide from Maori Longzao.

If he is the kind of person who does not learn and does not know. The shogun, Hiroshi Ishida, could not have entrusted him with a heavy responsibility.

And Lailai's son, father and daughter, it is impossible to win him over.

It's because he's not the kind of person who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, but has some skills, and he's still a real person.

Bastard, this is too contemptuous of people, they actually made me a crane wing formation in a naval battle, isn't it too blind to me?

After looking at it for a while, Mori Ryuzo's face changed.

For he watched left and right. The problem was immediately apparent.

These enemies on the opposite side are obviously using the formation of land battles to deal with themselves.

Oh my God.

It takes a lot of self-confidence to get to this point.

Of course. While being confident, I also look down on myself deeply.

In Maori Longzao's heart, he felt a wave of fire begin to rise.

However, his brain still retains a trace of clarity.

He knew it. He must not be made irrational by the enemy's tricks, if he really reacts like this, then he will be fooled.

Meantime. Faced with the situation that the enemy wants to surround him with a crane wing array, he needs to make arrangements to deal with it immediately.

A battle at sea is not like a battle on the road.

It takes a long time to answer each command and arrange it.

Mori Ryuzo didn't know how to say it, his opponent still had a walkie-talkie, and if they had anything, they only needed to say a few words, and they could communicate with each other.

This is also the reason and confidence for the captains of the Imperial Fleet to confidently use the formation of the Crane Wing Array and prepare to surround the Maori Dragon Fleet.

People have developed instant messaging.

Today's Maori Dragon, if he wants to get out of the dangerous situation that he is about to be surrounded now, there is not much way out in front of him.

All he could do now was to rush straight over and break out of the encirclement that was about to form.

Otherwise, it is to hit the fleet and storm in one direction.

But either way, all he did was break out of the circle that was about to form.

Other than that, he had no other way to go.

If he didn't, then when the encirclement was formed, he would have to be surrounded by people in the center.

More and more Imperial fleets were now arriving at their intended positions and were beginning to fire on the moving Maori fleet from the side of the ship.

With this situation, the pressure on the Maori fleet suddenly increased a lot.

Although he ordered his ships to speed up, to Maori's surprise, he rushed forward and retreated.

He rushed to the left, and the enemy retreated to the left.

And the warships under his command are not as fast as others.

Therefore, all his plans ultimately fell through.

At this point, Maori Longzao understood that he was now a complete turtle in an urn.

Because the opponent is fast, then his opponent can easily get rid of himself and escape from this battlefield.

Looking back at this advantage, then it can be said that if you want to run, you can also be easily caught up by these enemy warships.

I'm going to go!

How did you get such an enemy?

After figuring out this, he now has the heart to cry.

Running shells kept falling, some falling into the sea, splashing and water columns.

Some landed on the surrounding warships, directly penetrating the hull or breaking the poles.

The broken pole is a big problem for the battleship.

You must know that the voyage of a warship depends on poles and sails.

Fortunately, in addition to the poles and sails, there are also wooden oars.

Otherwise, the ships that have broken their poles will be completely incapacitated and will become waste.

Rao is like this, and the speed of these ships has also changed, and it is almost impossible to move.

The flowering shells in the air exploded one by one, and the fragments of the shells that were shattered were shot out in a radial form and hit the hull of the battleship in those targets.

There are also chain bullets flying sideways, flying and circling to shoot horizontally, along the way, but whenever there is anything in the way, whether it is the human body or what, it is basically made into two sections, and the power of the chain in the middle of the chain bullet cannot be underestimated.

In addition to flowering and chain bullets, there are also solid bullets that keep falling.

These solid iron bullets, although they don't seem to be very powerful.

However, these seemingly inpowerful solid bullets, if they hit the hull, would break through the deck of the wooden hull.

That's more worrying than the death of dozens of soldiers.

You must know that the warships of this era were all made of wood.

And if the hull is penetrated, it will leak.

If the water leaks, the boat will sink.

If a ship sinks, don't think about it, and the soldiers on board will all die.

Damn, the enemy ships have completed the encirclement, and now we can't get out.

Putting down the telescope in his hand, Maori Longzao's face turned pale and he thought to himself.

He felt that these enemies were too perverted.

Although from the beginning of the war to the present, he has made mistakes in judgment.

But he knew very well that even if he did not make a mistake in judgment, he could not be a match for these enemies.

First of all, it goes without saying about the opposing side's warships.

Such a warship looks much more sophisticated than the warships of the Southern Barbarians.

Moreover, the range of these enemy's artillery is more than twice as far as that of the Southern Barbarians.

At the same time, their warships are very fast, which is not at all comparable to the ironclad ships under their command.

Therefore, even if you play according to the regular style of play, you can't be the opponent of these people in an honest battle. Wait until you still fail, and there is no other result.

Besides, isn't this time me upright?

The same goes for the enemy.

Failure is failure, and you can't find any excuse for yourself.

Now that I have been surrounded, there is no way out at all.

The enemy's artillery was constantly firing, and shells rained down.

It's only a matter of time before he is completely wiped out.

Because he really didn't have the ability to take the fleet under his command out of the enemy's encirclement.

To be honest, the enemy's tactics are a little more obscene.

If they go further, they will take a step back.

Rush to the left with their own fleet, and they will also retreat to the left.

In short, these guys are relying on their speed to keep their distance and advantage from themselves.

Moreover, your fleet is always within range of the opponent's artillery.

At the same time, the enemy's encirclement has been completed, and there is no way out for himself.

Unless...... Surrender yourself...... I don't know what happened to the road, but Mao Li Longzao's heart suddenly gave birth to such a thought. (To be continued......)
