Chapter 599: Burning Ocean (V.)

The two fleets, which are in the midst of a fierce firefight, form a huge "cross" that crosses vertically on the sea!

Most of the warring parties were at a loss for what to do, but Maximian smiled as if he was in control. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Praise be to our lord Balor Vermore! I dedicate this victory to Her Majesty Queen Kraken! ”

Maximian stood on a high open-air podium, drew his saber and pointed diagonally at the sky in an extremely domineering manner.

"Ship attack!"

In fact, at this moment Maximian's fleet was already in the battle line, and the difference from the previous one was that there were enemy ships on the right and port sides. Then naturally, the usual situation where only the gunners on one side were busy and the gunners on the other side watched the excitement no longer existed, and the gunners of each ship gave an order, and the guns windows of the two sides were opened at the same time, and all the guns of the ships fired fiercely at the left and right flanks at the same time!

Only then did people wake up from a dream!

The Maximian fleet charged under the cover of the magical fog, not really ramming the Yanbo, nor did it intend to engage in broadside combat, but made wild gestures only to intimidate the enemy fleet and force them to disperse and dodge.

The "Sea Palace" is a genuine ironclad ship, not so much a sea palace as a "sea fortress", the armor of the Yangbo is not as thick as it, where does it dare to collide with it? Under the cover of dense fog, it is impossible to fire cannons to stop this ironclad giant, is there any other choice if you don't dodge?

Victoria Yamabo's command is fine, the problem is that the performance gap between the two flagships is there, and once it loses the lead, it will be constrained everywhere.

Maximian cut the Yamabo fleet in two as he wished, and whether looking to the left or to the right, his fleet occupied the advantageous position of the T-prefix.

Battleships of this era were equipped with gun decks, with the same gun windows on the left and right sides, and the same number and type of naval guns, so the number of main guns of the battleship was always even.

In a naval battle, the two sides opened the battle line to bombard, and everyone could see that only one side of the naval gun played a role in the battle, and the naval gun on the other side was almost decoration. Obviously, such a gun emplacement is very inefficient, in most cases only half of the ship's guns are firing, but no one can cancel the guns on the other side, because the sea is rough and the environment is unpredictable, how do you know if the enemy ship will appear on your port side or starboard? Since it is impossible to be sure, it is necessary to be combat-ready on both sides.

At this moment, however, the situation at sea is unusual.

The Maximian fleet cut off the Yangbo fleet, and there were enemy ships on the left and right sides, and the guns on both sides could fire at the same time, and the efficiency of the naval guns was perfectly played!

Victoria's face turned pale.

She didn't want to admit it, but the harsh reality was already in front of her:

In this battle, I am afraid that there will be more than one luck......

"Vita, hold your breath," Lyubov patted his sister on the shoulder, "this war has just begun, and we still have cards to play." ”

"That's right! We haven't lost yet! We also have the Knights of the Sea! Viktoria's eyes rekindled her fighting spirit.

The advantage of the Maximian fleet is the heavy artillery of the giant ships, and the advantage of the coast guard is the better and more abundant tactical troops, making full use of the advantages and avoiding the weaknesses, and Viktoria believes that he still has a chance to win.

"The Giant Eagle Air Wing is dispatched to bombard the enemy fleet!"

"All the Pearl Knights attack, cover the armored knights to dive and destroy the enemy ship!"

Victoria's order was quickly conveyed, and the carrier-based aviation, with the Giant Eagle as the core and built at a great expense, was the first to respond.

This air force, which has undergone long-term training and training, is affiliated with the "Eagle Regiment," but it is also marked with the unique brand of the coast guard when it carries out combat missions, and pays more attention to protecting itself with the help of magic and providing convenience for combat operations than the "Eagle Regiment."

The Navigator Regiment rushed out and raised their wands to bless the giant eagles on the bombing mission with "invisibility" and "see through the invisibility", the latter of which was to facilitate communication between the giant eagles, keep an eye on maintaining formation while being invisible, and command and dispatch.

The Giant Eagle Wing has four squadrons, and after completing the preparation for casting spells, they take off one after another, and each of the squadrons selects an enemy ship to bomb in turn.

The invisible eagles successfully evaded the surveillance of the enemy navigator and approached the pirate fleet from high altitude, and then followed the combat process cultivated by thousands of trainings, locked onto the target and dived down in turn to drop bombs.

The "Eagle Regiment" is equipped with explosive barrels in groups of four, which can be thrown separately. The Coast Guard tied four explosive barrels into a bunch, and if you don't throw them, you just throw them all in one go!

Even if there are bombs in the body, there is no good chance to break through the cross-blockade of magic and artillery fire to dive and drop bombs, but it is better to return immediately after dropping bombs, reload after the mothership lands, bless stealth, and then come back to find bombing opportunities.

Compared to the "Eagle Regiment", this "wave of waves" bombing mode lacks continuity and costs more money and spells, with the benefit that concentrated bombing is more efficient and the Giant Eagle on mission has higher security. Compared with Eagle Island, the Giant Eagle is a scarce resource, and the money and spells are relatively abundant, so the tactical choice is to protect the Giant Eagle.

The four bombing squadrons selected the light cruiser "Nanfeng", the destroyers "Blackwater" and "Sawa", and the pirate flagship "Sea Palace".

The Southwind was the first to hit, and the four giant eagles swooped down invisibly, and when the navigator noticed the abnormality, it was too late to call the police, and the four large cluster blasting barrels roared down, and the two blew through the main deck and set the first gun deck on fire, and the gunner and observer hung up half on the spot, and the navigator hurriedly dispatched to cast a spell to stop the fire from spreading towards the ammunition bay.

Next, two cluster explosive barrels smashed on the bow bridge tower, and after two roars, the Nanfeng ship's head moved on the spot, and the captain and his staff were all reported to the bottomless abyss.

The battered Nanfeng ship was in disarray, and the gunnery chief learned that the commander who was higher than his position had been completely destroyed, and was ordered to take over the captain's position. Now he no longer has the strength to command the gunners, so he led the damage management team to personally go into battle and try to rescue the battleship that was blown up "head".

The decapitated Nanfeng ship fell to 10 knots, struggled at turtle speed in the turbulent sea, and was forced to play the flag and withdraw from the battle sequence, waiting for the engineering maintenance ship to come to the rescue.

Two destroyers not far from the Southwind - Sawa and Blackwater - were also hit head-on, but these two battleships had much better luck than their big sister Southwind.

Only one of the four bombs dropped on the Sawa hit directly, blowing a shocking hole in the deck, and the waves set off by the other three near-misses almost capsized, and finally managed to escape by virtue of the advantage of "the ship is small and easy to turn around".
