Dense solid shells fell into the sea near Duke's steamship, and the splashing waves disturbed the helmsman in the Dwarven ship's control room, repositioning repeatedly.

"What the fuck! First mate, can we fight back with our position? ”

Facing General Duke, who was provoked by the enemy, the first mate of the ship who was questioned said with a wry smile: "If it is the old steamship in the back, it still has shipboard weapons. However, due to the time of its construction, our ship can only be a live target to resist beating. If you want to fight back, it depends on whether the rune mage you bring has a long enough trajectory. ”

"These damn bastards! First mate, is there a way to make the boat a little faster. Just 10 meters closer and we can turn around this passive situation. ”

Although the accuracy of the cannonballs that came over was poor, there was a way to punch the master to death. The boat he took was the old master who had been punched by countless kings, although his own injuries could not affect his counterattack, but his hands were short, and he couldn't reach others!

"If you want to catch up with each other, you can only sacrifice the life of the ship and enter overload mode! As for whether to catch up or not, it depends on the destiny of heaven. ”

As the beaten party, the first mate on this steamship was also very aggrieved. However, judging from the other party's many tricks to trick himself and others, the other party's strange ship should be far towards the steamship that he and his people are proud of.

"Then what the hell are you waiting for, why don't you hurry up!"

Although Duke is a grumpy dwarven clan, he is not as angry as he appears on the outside at this time. He had also speculated about the enemy's intentions in leaving these ships. He didn't believe these ships, and the other party didn't do anything.

Judging from the current situation, his ship has completely fallen into the rhythm of the opponent, and it is impossible to turn the tables on his own. He thinks the only chance to turn the tables should be on the steamship in the back. As for himself and others, they have to play the role of a clown to attract the attention of their opponents.

"What, you say it again? Damn, we've lost contact with the other ships now. Okay, okay, okay, I'll report it to the general. ”

Duke, who was thinking about how to draw the enemy's attention, also heard what the first mate said when he grabbed the earpiece and talked to the operation room below.

"General, what do you see?"

With the experience of Duke and the first mate, if you can't see that people want to break them one by one. However, the goal now is only his own ship.

"It can't go on like this. We have to get out of the rhythm of the other side or we will always be in a position to be beaten. ”

Speaking of this, Duke paused for a moment, and then said calmly: "There is no need to worry about the contact, although the equipment on the ship has been interfered with by the enemy, I and my subordinates and the liaison stone can continue to communicate." However, compared to the on-board contact and reception equipment that can be used for group chats, the contact stone in my hand only has the function of one-line communication. ”

Seeing that the speed of the other party's ship was still in the same gear as his own, Duke decisively ordered: "Turn on the overload mode for a while, and then our ship will disguise itself as an after-effect and reduce the speed of the ship by two and a half grades." At the same time, notify the steamers behind them to keep them in sync with us at the speed of the ship. ”

"General, do you want to?"

Seeing that the ship's first mate still didn't understand his tactics, Duke picked up parchment and pen and sketched out the tactical drawings roughly. Seeing that the two steam ships on the drawing slowed down and dragged each other, and the other wooden ships formed a circle to outflank each other, the first mate suddenly realized: "This tactic is quite good, but can it work?" With the cunning of the enemy, it should be easy to see through, right? ”

In the face of the ship's first mate's morale of others, destroy his own prestige. Duke didn't think so, and said bluntly: "This plan still needs the cooperation of professionals like you to succeed." This rough plan alone has less than half the chance of success. However, as long as we find the right time to launch this project, there is a chance that it will succeed more than 90%. ”

"As for the timing of what I am talking about, it is up to you, the first mate, to grasp it. Compared to me, the general on the road, you should know that the sea area has delayed their sailing this season. ”

At this point, Duke had fully understood his intentions. At this time, the first mate's eyes lit up and said, "No problem, General." During this season, the highest concentration of ice floes should be the current belt 500 nautical miles ahead. As for the bits and pieces of ice floe we have here, they are all washed over there. ”

When the first mate said this, his expression became solemn.

"Still, General. There are an outrageous number of unthawed sea monsters there, and if we implement our plans in an environment close to that, we will also be in danger. ”

Duke did not taunt the first mate's cautiousness. After all, he is a professional general, and the first mate is just a co-captain who sails all year round.

"At this point, you still don't understand? The battlefield is about you and you are dead, and now they are just playing with us before we die, but they will still strike a fatal blow in the end. With the performance of our ships, will we be able to escape? ”

Hearing this, the first mate fell silent. He also understands the reason, and even now he still has a fluke mentality. But when his luck was broken, the first mate finally sighed and said: "I was too confused before, now please command, I will definitely complete your request without discount." ”

"Okay, life or death, it's up to you this time! Tell me, where is the best place for us to launch a plan? ”

While the dwarven general Duke and the ship's first mate are plotting a countermeasure, Zhou Xuan, who has turned into a cannonball maniac, and Simon are dormant on a steamship listening to a conversation from a machine crawler.

"Simon, interesting. I didn't expect them to be really smart people! Well, you've had enough, right? We solve them on the spot? ”

Zhou is not the kind of person who raises tigers, and he doesn't have Long Aotian's other hobby of watching his opponent's magnified moves. For crises, he has always dealt with them in the way of killing and budding.

"It's too frustrating not to play enough, not aiming for a zero hit of 70 shells. However, the anger is almost out. It seems to me that it is not time to kill them. ”

Zhou was very interested in Simon's thoughts, so he didn't bother him, and quietly listened to what he had to say next.

"You know, they also have contact stones, which are one-line contacts. If the ship behind us is destroyed at once, will the other ships that want to make dumplings for us be frightened back, and then our original purpose will not be achieved. ”

Simon's statement made Zhou lose his jaw, and he admitted that Simon's words made a lot of sense. Moreover, their original goal was to wipe out the pursuing dwarven fleet, and as for playing with them, it was just a process, not the point.
