Chapter 293: A Shot Comes West
"Jamie! Can the pier head shoot long to those two fleets? ”
Feng Yi knew very well that for the two sides who had reached a consensus and were about to evacuate the confrontation battlefield, in fact, their strings were the tightest in this evacuation process.
Because at this time, the formation is scattered, and it is very difficult to dispatch hundreds of warships to quickly maneuver and react.
And at this time, once there is something to do, it will definitely make them chaotic, and under anger, there is a high chance that they will go to war.
Of course, this premise is not to let them discover their own-stirring sticks, otherwise they will not be separated, but they will be hit by thunder.
At this time, they were separated from the two fleets by more than 13,000 meters, and ordinary crystal cannons could not reach them at all;
However, there is a giant crystal cannon on the Hades, the Pier Touzun, whose muzzle is as thick as a water tank, and its power is extremely powerful;
What's more, it has a range of more than 10,000 meters, making it a real weapon.
However, the pier head requires a cooldown time of half an hour, so it is generally not used unless necessary.
"Back to Hades! The pier head shot at the maximum angle of fire, and could only barely reach 13,000 kilometers;
However, the wind was high and the rain was strong, and I only had a half chance of being able to shoot into the fleet further north at 12,000 kilometers. ”
Jamie was a black gunner, arguably the most powerful gunner on the Hades at this time.
Feng Yi frowned slightly, now that there is the barrier of wind, rain and waves, the other party's reconnaissance patrol should not be able to find it, if it goes any further, it will be difficult to say.
Breaking through another kilometer shouldn't be a big problem, but Jamie says there's only a half chance of it, so it's a bit tricky.
After a quick measurement, Feng Yimeng nodded and said, "Okay!" Then go forward another kilometer, and then everything will be up to you, Jamie. ”
Feng Yi can only gamble at the moment, in order to get rid of the pursuit of the British fleet, and even more to muddy the backwaters of the Caribbean Sea......
"Yes! I'm not absolutely sure, but Jamie will give it his all! ”
Jamie nodded vigorously, feeling the weight of the responsibility on his shoulders, and turned to crouch behind the pier head, stroking the cold barrel of the cannon, his eyes shining with excitement and determination......
It is difficult for anyone who has not really experienced the spectacular sea conditions of the wind and waves to imagine the shock of the wrath of heaven and earth.
The waves of five or six meters surged almost every five or six breaths, and the fierce and rapid rain made all the battleships flutter like fallen leaves.
In such sea conditions, there are simply not a few ships of the third class and below that can remain unsinkable.
Hades' fleet moved silently forward, and at one point, a deafening thunderstorm drowned out a roar, and then a huge cannonball swept towards the east under the cover of the rain shadow......
Feng Yi stood quietly and calmly, no matter how the Hades tossed, his body never shook.
And no one else made a sound, they were all silently waiting for news from the observer......
"Hit! Hit! Hit!
There was a battleship that was hit! And a huge fireball was raised!
That battleship is finished! ”
After a few breaths, the excited voice of the observer came out, and even with the blocking effect of thunder, sea roar, and heavy rain, the excited words still clearly reached the ears of everyone on the Hades.
In an instant, the tsunami-like shouts of the mountains surged, and the crowd hugged and high-fived excitedly.
More than 10,000 meters, such a long distance, it is too incredible that Duntouzun can hit with one shot!
It's all thanks to that inconspicuous little black guy - Jamie!
"Jamie! You're a good boy! I knew you could! ”
"Haha, that's good! I don't dare to say that Jamie's gunnery is proud of the Caribbean, but if you put it among pirates, it is definitely one of the best! ”
"Jamie! Jamie! ”
"Hades! Yan! ”
……
No one can comprehend the indescribable excitement of a group of frustrated sailors and a group of slaves who have come out of the restless days after reaping the fruits of unimaginable victory!
Feng Yi smiled and watched the sailors vent for a while, and then raised his hand to signal the crowd to return to their respective posts.
The first step has been successful, but it does not mean that it is safe to say that it is nine out of ten.
If the two fleets had not gone to war, the situation would have been awkward and dangerous.
The rain is like hail, and the angry sea wants to turn the sky!
Sailors, accustomed to the wind and rain, were constantly busy with stagnant water, and they needed to prepare sufficient ammunition;
Because whether the plan succeeds or not, they are likely to face a fierce and protracted battle in the future.
The Hades fleet was moving slowly, and the main force of the Norrington fleet in the rear was getting closer and closer, and Feng Yi was still standing calmly.
After more than thirty breaths, the voice of the observer came again......
"Hades! They went to war! ”
In fact, even if the observer didn't say anything at this time, Feng Yi already knew.
Because the fierce artillery fire in the distance has spoken for itself......
With a hint of a smile on his face, Feng Yi shouted:
"Order the fleet to speed up and bypass the battlefield from the north to protrude!"
"Yes!"
……
Antonio stared at the fleet on the other side, which was rapidly turning around, his eyes ready to breathe fire.
The Bourbons are so shameless! It is really shameful to use the trick of sneak attack treacherously and without scruples in such a scene!
One of our fifth-tier warships was sunk without even having time to react, which was really unbearable!
Originally, Antonio was still a little skeptical, after all, it was too terrifying to be able to sink a fifth-class battleship with one shot;
Unless the opponent is very lucky, the shell just falls into the place where the crystal shell is stacked, and then triggers the collective detonation of the ammunition.
However, when he noticed the very flexible and quick reaction of the opposing fleet, Antonio's suspicions disappeared in an instant.
The opponent can make such a quick and neat change of formation, it is impossible to make a temporary intention!
It was definitely premeditated!
Otherwise, with the means of those Gallic chickens, how could there be such an excellent fleet?
As a nobleman of the Habsburg dynasty and a member of the strongest navy of the past, Antonio did not believe that any other force could surpass them.
This conceit was something almost common to many Spanish admirals.
Although the results of the actual battle told them again and again that the truth may not be what they believed, blind confidence and glory are still deeply rooted in their hearts......
"General! Looking at this situation, there is a good chance that a major storm will hit behind.
At this time, I am afraid that a large-scale war will ......"
A somewhat worried voice interrupted Antonio's musings, and Antonio suddenly turned around angrily and scolded:
"Bastard thing! How dare you speak for the Bourbons! Could it be that he was bought by the Bourbons? ”
One of the officers who spoke was stunned, his eyes full of consternation.
He didn't expect Antonio to react so much, and he didn't expect him to suddenly doubt himself.
What the officer didn't expect was Antonio's later sentence......
"Marcus secretly communicated with the Bourbons and secretly provided all kinds of information about our fleet to the Bourbons, and he deserves to be executed!
However, thinking of Marcas's previous contributions, he can be temporarily detained and waiting for the verdict!
Come on, take Marcas down! ”
Antonio's order not only made Marcas look confused, but even the others were a little stunned.
How could Marcas, who had always been loyal, do such a thing?
"Why are you stunned?! Have you also been bought by the Bourbons? Or are you spies for the Bourbons yourself? ”
Antonio's cold voice made the guards who were seen feel excited, but they did not dare to hesitate any longer;
After answering the order loudly, he escorted the officer who seemed to have lost the slightest strength and had a mocking look in his eyes.
Antonio saw the officer's eyes, but Antonio didn't pay much attention.
The first thing you need to do to survive in this chaotic world is to save your life and status!
This sudden battle must have been planned by the Bourbons a long time ago, maybe that fifth-class battleship was just an introduction, and then there would be a big feast.
In any case, the consequences of this big war are somewhat unpredictable.
And before that, he must first prepare for the worst, in case the loss is too serious, this black cauldron must be carried by someone!
"Order the 3rd and 4th fleets to outflank from both sides, order the 1st and 5th fleets to prepare for the assault, and order the other fleets to prepare for the array artillery formation!
The children of the Bourbon dynasty are too insidious and shameless!
Since they are looking for death, the brothers will tell them with fear what a Habsburg navy is! What is Armada! ”
"Yes!"
Although the voice of the response was relatively loud and loud, it was only an instinctive reaction formed after a long period of training;
As for the passion and self-confidence contained in it, there is not much.
Because, as Habsburg soldiers, they were full of expectations when they first joined, and regarded the honor of the navy as their own glory;
But after a series of events, they had to accept a helpless reality.
The Habsburgs are no longer the mighty Habsburgs they once were!
The other side.
The Bourbon Dana was depressed at the moment.
He really didn't know which bastard fired the cannon without permission, and he didn't know if someone had any relatives killed in the previous battle, so he wanted to have a big fight.
He only knew that this battle could not be fought.
As for whether it would be fired by a third party, Dai didn't think about this, after all, there were reconnaissance cruisers watching on the periphery, and it was impossible for anyone to break in.
A fifth-class Habsburg warship was sunk, and with Antonio's temperament, it was absolutely impossible to give up.
So, instead of sitting back and waiting, it's better to strike first.
The prospect of such a change in the weather is very worrying, but the best fleets are often honed by all kinds of bitter and dangerous battles.
The Bourbons' influence in the Caribbean had been declining for some time, which Dinah could not tolerate.
Since it was inevitable, he took the opportunity to let everyone in the Caribbean know that his Bourbon dynasty and his Dana were not to be messed with!
