At the same time, at the temporary base of the alliance fleet at sea, the Jiaolong Water Division is quietly approaching. They lined up, barely in formation, and just headed straight for the temporary base of the Alliance fleet.

"Hmm......" When the Alliance fleet spotted a large number of warships behind it, it immediately sounded the alarm, but it was obviously too late.

"Huhu ......" was just the next moment, above the sea, a line of fire of several kilometers lit up, and before the alliance fleet could react, huge fireballs roared in.

Due to the very dense docking of the alliance fleet, only the first round of attacks caused hundreds of ships of the alliance fleet to catch fire. Zhang Dabing directly ordered the fleet to press forward at full speed, and be sure to cross the enemy's attack belt before the enemy counterattacked.

At present, almost all of the attack weapons equipped on the battleships are catapults, and the only weakness of the catapults is that they are severely limited by the attack distance. Especially when the two sides are very close together, the catapult is almost completely useless.

And that's why Zhang Dabing dared to approach at full speed. At the speed of the warships of the Easy Empire, the distance of thousands of kilometers is the time of the catapult wave attack. And when the fleets of the two sides approached 100 meters, the enemy's rear fleet completely lost the opportunity to strike at a long distance.

At such a close distance, it is still easy to form accidental damage, so the alliance fleet has to be careful. But for the fleets of the Easy Empire, they have no such scruples at all, and they are wantonly throwing fireballs towards the center of the enemy fleet.

However, a distance of more than 100 meters, for today's army, can be crossed directly. And the alliance army in a hurry naturally wanted to seize the warships of the Xiaoyao Empire, so a large number of alliance troops began to pounce on the fleet of the Xiaoyao Empire.

It's a pity that the Qin crossbow of the Xiaoyao Empire has once again taught the alliance army a deep lesson. The seemingly short distance of more than 100 meters has almost become a moat. After losing countless Alliance soldiers, the Alliance fleet finally approached the fleet of the Easy Empire, and the two sides began to engage in broadside battles.

The troops of the Easy Empire, which had been prepared for a long time, immediately formed a shield defense on the perimeter, covering the shooters in the rear, thus buying time for the catapults on the battleship. Zhang Dabing approached the opponent's position so riskily in order to throw all the special firebombs on the ship.

The temporary sea bases of the coalition fleet are all spliced together by warships, almost forming a small land on the sea. And these warships are basically mainly transportation, loaded with grain, grass and water for the entire alliance fleet.

Seeing that the attack of the alliance army was becoming more and more frenzied, Zhang Dabing decisively gave the order to retreat. However, after suffering such a big loss, the alliance fleet was of course unwilling to let go of the Jiaolong fleet easily, so the two sides launched another chase battle.

At this time, the alliance's temporary base at sea can be said to be a mess of chickens and dogs. In order to maintain stability at sea, the alliance's sea base is completely composed of countless transport warships, and now the fire is together, and countless warships are shrouded in raging fire.

Since the firebombs used by the Empire are made entirely of oil, the fire is difficult to extinguish. After the upper echelons of the alliance decisively abandoned the burning transport battleship, they began to make every effort to salvage the supplies on board.

"Baga, I just said that the people are very cunning, you just don't listen, and now let the alliance army fall into the Southern Regions island group, not to mention, they also attacked the temporary base, and now we not only suffer heavy losses, but also completely fall into passivity." In the makeshift conference room, Yamamoto looked at James and shouted angrily.

"Watch your words, Mr. Yamamoto!" James was obviously not in a very good mood at the moment, he glared at Yamamoto and said, "Connect me to several other battlefields, and I'm going to hold an impromptu video conference." ”

At James' request, soon all the battlefields in the waters of the Seven Immortals Islands were connected by James. And almost every one of the people who appear in the video is a commander of one side and is in charge of different battlefields. And the faces of each of them were full of anger.

"Our temporary base has just been attacked by the fleets of the Easy Empire, and I now want to know the situation on the battlefield!" James said very unhappily, "These treacherous Orientals, I must make them pay." ”

"Dear Lord James, the most important thing I should do to you now is to calm down!" At this time, Britz took a deep breath and said to James, "We are currently trapped in the islands, and all the big ship lanes are blocked. ”

"The enemy has special firebombs in his hands, and the catapults can be thrown several times longer than ours, and at present our warships have lost dozens of them, and I am forcibly landing on the islands of the Southern Regions in an attempt to join Halsey."

"The losses of the Alliance fleet this time are so huge, you let me calm down?" James glared angrily and said, "The cards of the Easy Empire have been exhausted, and they simply don't have the strength to compete with us head-on. ”

"So, what we need to do now is we have to take this group of islands. Only by establishing a real sea base will we be able to capture the entire Seven Immortals Islands. And in the process, we must not give the Empire any respite. ”

"Dear General James, what you said is so good. But now the question is, can we take a breather. Balma made an exaggerated expression and said, "At present, I feel that the Southern Islands are full of enemies, and I may return to my hometown for free at any time, and we simply don't know anything about the enemy, OK?" ”

"General James, I only want to support now, our army is clearly undernumbered at the moment, if you can't break through the enemy blockade as soon as possible, then you will take full responsibility for your own command." Halsey watched James scream angrily.

"I just want to know the specifics of the Southern Regions island group now, as for how I command it...... You can sue me after I seize the Seven Immortals Islands. James looked at Halsey and said, "Don't forget, I'm the top conductor here." ”

"This is not the time for civil strife, and I can tell you responsibly that all the islands we occupy are under frenzied enemy attacks. I don't know where these enemies came from, but I hope that General James will come to their aid immediately! Yaruch said with a shrug.

"Since the enemy chose to attack at night, it means that their forces are not enough at all, so you only need to hold out until dawn, and then the truth will naturally be clear, and I have already sent a fleet here to attack the Southern Regions Island Group with all my might." James said confidently.

"I can guarantee that our army will be able to land on the Southern Regions Island Group tomorrow, but before that, I want to know what the current situation of the fleet besieging Tianshu Island is, and why is the news intermittent? You guys from South America should be in charge over there, right? ”

"That side was also attacked by the fleet, and our main ship was sunk by the other side in the first place. At the moment the entire fleet has suffered heavy losses, and we have sent another fleet to meet them. Havana said with an ugly face.

"General Havana, I don't think what you're saying is funny at all." James looked at Havana with annoyance and said, "The whole five hundred warships were completely beaten by the other side and had no power to fight back, and even the intelligence transmission was problematic, which makes me very suspicious of the strength of your South American coalition forces." ”

"General James, I think there's one thing you have to know, and that's our fresh water resources, which have suffered heavy losses in this sneak attack, and if nothing else, I think we'll be able to hold out for two months at most." At this time, John next to James spread his hands and said.

"Everybody's heard, right? With the current situation of the Endless Sea, it is almost impossible to reach the Australian mainland safely. So what we can do at the moment is to seize the Seven Immortals Islands with all our might. James said as he looked at the crowd.

"When dawn comes, we will know the true reality of the Empire, and then it will be our chance to fight back. This time, we must press in with the whole army and take the entire group of islands in the Southern Regions in one go, otherwise there will be no place for us in the endless sea. ”

"General James, I just got the news that the Easy Empire has sent five million troops and two thousand warships, and is heading from the Peace Islands to the Seven Immortals Islands. And the Easy Empire has already opened up the route from the Peace Islands to the Seven Immortals Islands, plus the sea charts in their hands, it is estimated that it will only take more than a month for the reinforcements of the Easy Empire to arrive in the Seven Immortals Islands. At this time, Shiro Yamamoto on the other side said to James.

"Is your information accurate?" James asked with a sudden frown.

"You can go to the forum to verify that this was deliberately released by the Easy Empire, and seriously warn us to evacuate the waters of the Seven Immortals Islands." Shiro Yamamoto looked at James and said, "The photos and videos were taken yesterday, and they were only posted on the Internet just now. ”

“Shit！ It seems that we can only fight with our backs, and launch a general attack after dawn, we must take the Southern Regions Island Group in one fell swoop before the reinforcements of the Easy Empire arrive, otherwise everyone will wait to be finished together! James exclaimed, a little angrily.

"It seems that the previous plan is going to change, contact all the front-line commanders for me, and a specific battle plan must be discussed tonight. We are running out of time, notify everyone to join the video conference now. ”

Just when the alliance fleet held an emergency military meeting, Lao Jiu was also deploying troops. The reinforcements sent by the Peace Islands are indeed on the way, but the actual number is far from as announced.

This time, there were only 1,000 fleets and 2 million troops. But this is enough for Lao Jiu, because his next plan is to close the door and fight the dog. The Southern Regions Island Group was obviously undefendable, so Lao Jiu began to plan how to use the Southern Regions Island Group to drag down the alliance fleet.
