Chapter 177: Turning Point
"What to do with Mr. Bug! Can we deal with so many large warships? ”
Riel stood next to Bug and said worriedly, they had been alerted to a large fleet gathering on the island more than ten hours ago. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I've moved all the personnel of the No Island to Cape of the Sea, and the next thing we have to do is to hold on and wait for help! The dolphins have already gone to the port of Aberlia to call the police, and Mr. Yi will find a way to support us as soon as possible. ”
Yi Xiaoge looked at the conquest fleet that was getting closer and closer, but his heart was not as calm as half an hour ago, it must be the three royal fleets that attacked the island. Fortunately, before leaving, Yi Xiaoge greeted Buge, as long as there is no danger on the island, he will stick to it and wait for help, as long as he tries to ensure the safety of the island owner's villa.
"Prepare Grindersey to release the blastboats as soon as the conquest fleet comes within attack range!"
There is no island, and the three royal fleets of the dragon, the snake, and the lion adjust their formation, and they will not hesitate to attack the island. Two nautical miles away, Bug ordered the city defense batteries to open fire, and the fleet came within range of about seventy guns, and the cold cannons instantly became extremely hot, and the shells flew into the fleet with a furious momentum and exploded, raising waves of fire.
Hundreds of battleships seemed to be fearless, approaching the coast at full speed under artillery fire, and Bug knew that dozens or hundreds of guns on this side of the island alone would not be able to achieve results in a short time. And he knew the firepower of the Brilliant-class battleships, as long as he waited for them to attack, no island would not last long!
"All for incendiary bombs! I'm going to see if they're the quickest to put out the fire or if I'm the quickest to hit the incendiary bombs! ”
Naturally, Bug knew that the Brilliant-class battleships had fire prevention measures, and as long as they continued to attack, there was always a chance to burn their canvas.
Yi Xiaoge saw that the conquest fleet was already one nautical distance from the shore and was attacking the Blood Eagle Pirate Regiment. He hurriedly asked Grindsey to start igniting the blastboats, and the Dolphin commandos divided the thousands of blasters into three groups to attack in sections, and Grindelsey predicted the time of the attack and released the blastboats along the front end of the conquest fleet's route.
The Brilliant-class battleships were extremely protective and had fierce firepower, but they were poorly maneuverable. It is impossible to break away from the attack surface of a blasting boat several hundred meters away from the attack surface within two or three minutes.
As the blastboats ignited, the harbor sea was filled with thick gunsmoke, and hundreds of blasters headed straight for their targets like arrows from the string.
The commander of the Pioneer Regiment Anji Royal Frigate was the first to see the incredible speed of the boat, but they did not know what kind of ship it was, and thought it was a small group of enemy forces, so they ordered the fleet to open fire.
As usual, the blasting boats at high speed easily dodged the attack of the ship's guns, and only then did the personnel on the battleship see the flames spewing from the stern of the boats, and a bad omen appeared in everyone's hearts.
Boom Boom Boom !!!
Dozens of large ships of the Pioneer Regiment were the first to be hit by the blasting boats, and the hard guards still could not resist the power of the explosion of a large amount of gunpowder, and hundreds of blasting boats rushed into the Pioneer fleet and blew themselves up.
"What's the situation!" The frigate commander was shocked.
Walker, the commander of the conquest fleet, was making a battle plan to destroy the Blood Eagle Pirate Regiment, when he suddenly heard a dense and violent explosion from the vanguard group ahead, which was not the sound of the ship's guns firing. He got up from the chair in the captain's room and ran outside, only to see the dozens of escort fleets of the vanguard regiment billowing with gunsmoke and flames, and more than a dozen battleships were sinking. Walker looked around the vanguard but found no enemy ships, and the remaining thirty or so were crippled, wounded and almost incapacitated.
"What's going on!"
Walker is now starting to pay some attention, and the two sneak attacks have caused more than half of his two vanguard regiments to be destroyed, and they are almost incapacitated.
An adjutant ran over and said anxiously: "Report to the commander, the signal has come from the vanguard regiment that they have been attacked by small sailing ships loaded with gunpowder and have suffered heavy losses!" ”
"Little galleon! Isn't the speed of a small sailboat enough to wreck? ”
"Look ahead!"
Before Walker could finish speaking, one of the sailors suddenly shouted, and everyone looked towards the sea. Seeing a group of three or four hundred demolition boats dragging a long tail of smoke heading straight for them at a speed of twenty knots, Walker immediately reacted and hurriedly shouted: "The whole ship is free to shoot at the enemy ships, be sure to destroy them all!" ”
The conquest fleet is the elite fleet of the heart of the world, and its reflexes can be described as amazing, but no matter how amazing it is, in the face of extremely fast blasting boats, the rate of fire and accuracy of the ship's guns are still helpless, and dozens of battleships are full of firepower, only eighty or ninety ships were destroyed, and the blasting boats rushed into the fleet. The speed of the battleship could not escape the position of Grindesee's preview.
A series of explosions, Yi Xiaoge saw from the telescope that several battleships were directly destroyed on the spot, and the points of the Chamber of Commerce rose slowly, from mines to the current blasting boats, more than 40 battleships have been sunk, and the cumulative points have exceeded 60,000. These are all heavy warships, and one of them has thousands of points, and he seems to feel that these fleets are here to give him experience.
"Assemble the fleet quickly! Find the enemy ship for a decisive battle! "Walker's flagship was protected by two battleships, and it was unscathed. It seems that the enemy has a lot of means this time, and if he doesn't quickly engage in a decisive battle with the enemy, he may have some damage waiting for him.
"Keep banging for me! Until I am bulldozed to the ground! ”
The commanders of the three fleets continued to direct their ships to bombard the fortifications of the island from three directions, and Bug looked at the broken walls everywhere, and his heart was extremely anxious. Yi Xiaoge handed over the island to him, if he lost, how should he explain to Yi Xiaoge!
Yes!
With a scream, another battery on the city wall was destroyed, and several artillerymen were killed by shells, but there were no soldiers around at the moment.
How could the walls of stone, made of mortar, withstand such a fierce bombardment of battleships, that one by one the walls collapsed and one turret after another was destroyed.
"Artillery fire extended!"
As soon as the commander of the Jiaolong fleet gave an order, hundreds of thousands of naval guns began to approach the island, which was basically powerless, and the artillerymen shifted the muzzle of the guns to the various buildings within the city wall.
"Salvo preparation..... Put! ”
Thousands of artillery pieces were angry at the same time, and the cannonballs rained down on the high-end buildings that Bugg and Yi Xiaoge had worked so hard to build, and in just such a round of attacks, ten percent of the buildings were destroyed in one fell swoop.
"Damn!" Bug clenched his hands, no island has always been smooth sailing, how could he have suffered such a blow. He wished that hundreds of huge ships would appear at this moment, fighting to the death against the enemy forces outside!
Bang bang! Bang bang bang!!
Just as Bugg was at a loss for what to do, suddenly there was a dense cannon sound on the sea, which was different from the high-pitched cannon sound of the battleship, crisp and loud.
"It's like...... Frut, the shelling of Caravelle! Riel listened carefully to the sudden sound of the cannons.
Bugg and Riel glanced at each other and rushed out of the city wall in unison, and Cama was ordered to protect Bug and the others, and also ran out with the men. (To be continued.) )
