Chapter 157: Clearing Route 2
The G-2 fortress is still 18 warships ready to set sail early this morning, and now 18 warships go out every day, and there are still six ships left in the fortress for defense, which can be said to be extremely empty, but before the warships set sail, the piercing sirens sounded throughout the fortress.
Major Bada deals with some official duties every day, and spends the rest of his time cultivating, at this time he has just eaten breakfast, and he is not anxious when he hears the siren, he is no longer the same person he used to be.
Picked up the white napkin, gently wiped the corners of his mouth, then pushed away the chair and stood up, the military uniform of the school officer, the cloak of justice behind him, Major Bada strode towards the watchtower, at this time the soldiers inside the base rushed to the gun position, the 18 warships that were about to set sail stopped moving, and the soldiers disembarked in turn.
"Your Excellency Major, there are a large number of pirate ships on the sea outside the fortress, thirty nautical miles away from the fortress." The captain officer who was on duty today saw Bada coming to the watchtower and hurriedly reported the situation.
"Hmm!" Major Bada nodded, and then the telescope began to observe. The sea in the distance is dotted with pirate ships, there are more than 30 of them in a row, and there are black ship shadows behind them, and it is estimated that there will be no fewer pirate ships.
"Order all the soldiers to enter the gun emplacements, inform the guards of the town of Bailey to prepare for defense, let the miscellaneous soldiers begin to transport shells and gunpowder to the various gun emplacements, the fortress hospital is ready to receive the wounded, the maintenance squad is responsible for assisting, and the hired shipwrights ...... Let them pay attention to concealment, telegraph to the commander, inform about the situation here. "Major Bada gave a barrage of orders.
At this time, his mood was faintly excited, in the past, he was just an ordinary navy, and the road to promotion was tortuous and long, and he finally survived to the captain and met the commander Luo Yi, so he had the opportunity to be promoted to the rank of major. He was trained in the Navy Six, but he only practiced shaving and moon steps. This point was influenced by Luo Yi, Luo Yi practiced these two first, and then got the sand fruit, under the guidance of the chief, what is the strength now?
He wanted to try, but he couldn't miss a big deal because of a small mistake, and he still needed to get a reply from the commander, "Your Excellency Major, this is a call back from the commander." ”
Bada took it and looked at it, "Do you want to do it?" Thank you, sir. Bada clenched his right fist with some excitement, and the telegram was clenched into a ball, "Artillery preparations, although the construction has just been completed, but the gunners of the high-level gun positions are all veterans, and after entering the firing range, they will fire directly to disrupt the formation of the pirates." ”
"Yes."
There are more than a hundred pirate ships, and most of the pirates on the route are concentrated here, and they decide to destroy the fortress for their own survival, and the formation sailing is also a cat and a tiger, they have no training in this area, and the navigation is not very coordinated, barely maintaining three battle lines.
There were three rows, each row of thirty or forty pirate ships, and after entering the firing range, they turned to form a battle line for artillery bombardment, this was their only chance, and most of the troops of the G-2 fortress were not there. Originally, there were different voices among the pirates, who wanted to wait until the patrol fleet left the port before attacking the fortress, but there were also those who objected. Once the patrol fleet leaves the fort, then the navy may form a flanking posture against them at sea.
Although there are only a few hundred troops left, it is not a big problem to operate the fortress cannons, so the situation is very unfavorable for the pirates, and if they are pinned down by the opponent's patrol fleet at sea, then the attack will definitely be effective, especially the formation of the pirates is not excellent.
There are also people who want to destroy the patrol fleet first, but in this way, the patrol fleet will inevitably be alarmed, and the forces of the navy will return, so they also deny this tactic. In the end, it was decided to concentrate all the pirates, directly attack the fortress, and destroy them in the shortest possible time.
This method is also the most suitable for them, after all, the temporary formation of the pirate fleet, they can't find a leader, they are not convinced by each other, and at the same time they also have hatred for each other. They are all pirates stranded on this route, they are not in harmony with each other, and they often fight, if it is not the general trend, they will definitely fight first.
Because of the geographical situation, the fortress guns of the G-2 fortress were all separate gun emplacements, dotted along the seaside, and there was no suitable geographical location for arrangement, so the foundation could only be laid to build a towering battery. However, because the commanders in front of them all wanted to expand, the design was very reasonable and hierarchical, and after Luo Yi ordered the construction, it was very fast.
The forts were united as a barrier, connected by roads, and a group of miscellaneous soldiers, pushing several wooden carts carrying cannonballs and gunpowder, came to the bottom of a gundam battery.
"Quick, push the winch, the pirates are coming, and the ammunition must be sufficient." A sergeant urged, the miscellaneous soldiers were nervous, they were not regular soldiers, and their income was extreme, but they could eat well in the fortress. Luo Yi has been a miscellaneous soldier and knows them very well, and now the miscellaneous soldiers are the most nervous.
Wooden carts pushed the winch, and then the miscellaneous soldiers began to push the winch, there was no such thing as an elevator, so the ammunition could only be sent up with the winch, and the soldiers on it unloaded the ammunition, and then put the cart down.
"Go into the high firing range, and fire freely from the high gun position." The command post gave the order, and the bombardment of the high-level fortress artillery began, and the "tom tom" shell flew out of the chamber, pushing the air and cutting an arc through the air.
The "boom" shell hit the sea surface, setting off a huge column of water, and the landing point was far away from the pirates, but the pirates were also nervous together, and the large-caliber fortress cannon could send them to the sea with one shot.
The caliber of this kind of fortress cannon is very large, and the firing range is also long, and the firing range is even longer when it is high, and the weight of the bullet is very large, so the impact of such a fall is unimaginable.
"Speed up, get into range as soon as possible." The pirate ships were all sailing and covering the sea, and they had to get within the range of the ship's guns in the shortest possible time.
Major Bada remembered what the commander had said, the commander turned out to be a miscellaneous soldier, but his background was much worse than him, after all, Bada started as a recruit when he joined the army, and the commander was a miscellaneous soldier. At that time, the G-8 fortress was also attacked by pirates, and there were miscellaneous soldiers who acted as spies, but Bada didn't care about this, there must be spies, and this kind of thing couldn't be prevented.
"Major, Mr. Barry wants to see you?" A soldier came to ask for instructions.
"Mr. Barry, please." Bada said.
Barry is the foreman sent by the iceberg, and their excellent skills have made the warship overhaul very fast, and now that the fortress is under attack, the enthusiastic Barry wants to help, so he came to see Barda. ()
