On April 17, the flagship Black Pearl was sunk in Bilgewater Bay after breaking out of the encirclement, marking the total annihilation of the Blue Flame Pirate First Fleet. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The fate of the legendary pirate leader Planck is uncertain, representing the disappearance of the last resistance force on the Blue Flame Island.

The official organization had long been in contact with the Imperial Navy, and the remaining pirates, though numerous and unmanageable, could not be held together without a strong figure to call them on.

In short, the Imperial Navy finally got what it wanted and took control of Bilgewater. Mike. Aaron promised Blue Flame that it would retain some of its vested interests in the three ports south of Ionia, and in return, the official fleet would be responsible for blockading the western waters of Blue Flame if necessary on behalf of the Imperial Navy.

At this point, the entire Sea of Defenders from north to south is under the de facto control of Noxus. Ionia, the land of islands, has finally reached a state of isolation.

The Ionians are not the only ones facing this embarrassing situation, and at this moment the Glory is still docked near Garrin for supplies, which is equivalent to being surrounded by the Imperial Navy.

On the 19th, the Imperial Navy completed its rest. Three fleets from Bilgewater were reorganized at Nawel Naval Harbor with two fleets from the naval base camp in Holy Harbor.

On the 20th, 50,000 Imperial troops gathered in the city of Neville boarded the battleship. The huge fleet sailed out of the military port and approached the province of Garring.

From the outbreak of the war at the end of last year to the present half a year, Gellin still made some preparations for war.

Surrounded by mountains, it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the large trading docks opened up in the north became a breakthrough for the Imperial army to land.

Early in the morning, the Imperial Navy fleet assembled in the waters outside the dock and methodically arranged battle formations.

Thirty fire support ships lined up in front of the sea at the mile-long gap at the confluence of the two mountain ranges, aiming their guns at the positions of the Garlin guards on either side of the mountains.

On the hill, the guards occupied favorable terrain, and a large number of soldiers began to get busy. Heavy shore defense artillery condescendingly covered the entire harbor within fire range, and if the Imperial Navy dared to attack, they could launch at least one or two rounds of fire bombardment, and the harbor in front of them would become a sea of death.

However, at this moment, several unusual ships suddenly appeared in the camp of the Imperial fleet in the field of vision of the guards.

The exterior armor inlaid with white metal and the streamlined hull with graceful curves were once symbols of the great power of the Ionian Navy. These weapons of war are the cutting-edge magic warships that the kingdom has purchased from Piltover at a high price.

Now, however, the Imperial Navy flag flutters on their towering masts. The terrifying crystal cannons on the deck are slowly gathering a massive amount of destructive power, and their targets are the Ionians, the Garrin Guard.

The Magic Crystal Cannon has a range far beyond that of traditional artillery, and at this moment, the guards are watching these war weapons slowly unleashed on the mountain, but there is nothing they can do.

Suddenly, the magic crystal cannon began to fire, and a blazing light extended towards the mountain peak.

The defenders immediately withdrew from their positions, but must also assemble in the vicinity so that they can launch a counterattack at any time.

Some of the coastal artillery was destroyed, and the damage to the strength of the guards was not significant. However, several ammunition dumps exploded, billowing smoke from the mountain peaks, seriously affecting the visibility of the position.

At this moment, the fire support ships of the Imperial Fleet assembled on the surface of the sea quickly approached, and as soon as they entered the firing range, they launched heavy artillery fire.

In this landing battle, the Imperial Navy did not have any enemies on the sea. As a result, these temporary modifications of special ships were able to maximize their firepower, with all guns concentrated on one side of the ship and balanced with counterweights on the other. Each fire support ship is equipped with nearly 100 heavy guns, and all of them are functional.

Thirty battleships, a cluster attack of thousands of guns. Dense raindrops of shells gathered in the sky into a huge black cloud, overshadowing the sky.

The cannonballs crossed the graceful parabola and fell down the mountain peaks, and the dense sound of breaking the air was mixed together, like rolling muffled thunder.

Thundered......

The battleship was shaking, and the cannon was roaring.

On the other hand, on the defensive position, the counterattack fire sent out in a hurry was not weak, but unfortunately, because the field of vision was disturbed and scattered over a wide area, there were very few that could really threaten the Imperial fleet.

Moreover, they could not have any more opportunities to resist.

When the artillery fire of the Imperial Navy fell on the position, several hills between the mountains on both sides were directly flattened. The entire coastal defense position was filled with gunsmoke and flames.

This round of covering fire bombardment almost rendered the forward positions of the guards almost useless. A large number of heavy coastal artillery was destroyed, and countless soldiers wailed in the smoke and flames. The dead die, and the fleeing flees. Only a small number of the remaining men continued to hold their positions, launching a second round of counter-fire against the sea, but it was no longer possible to make any difference.

At the same time, the second wave of covering fire attacks from the Imperial fleet has already been launched.

This time, the difference in the intensity of firepower between the two sides is even more obvious at a glance.

Sporadic fire from defensive positions on both sides bombarded the bay, several Imperial warships were damaged, one of which was unfortunately hit in the ammunition compartment. In the violent explosion, a huge wave rose on the sea, and several warships around were collided together, causing a lot of panic.

However, this no longer matters, the second round of fire of the Imperial Army has completely cleared the forward positions of the defenders.

Ten battleships in the center sailed into the harbor and dispersed on both sides to carry out targeted killings of the surviving guard fire points on the hill with artillery fire.

About half an hour later, a large number of troop carriers docked behind, the hatches opened, and countless imperial soldiers spread from the coastline like a black wave.

Ten vanguard infantry battalions crossed the ridge and attacked the Garrin Guard, who had set up a second line of defense below.

At this moment, the garrison had gathered 30,000 troops behind the harbor. They were waiting for the Imperial Army to stop firepower and rush up to occupy the forward positions to continue the counterattack, but they did not expect the Imperial Army to attack so quickly.

Ten infantry brigades, numbering no more than two thousand. Daring to charge against 30,000 guards is simply looking for death.

Artillery roared in the Guards positions, shells exploded in the ranks of Imperial infantry, and severed limbs and arms flew everywhere.

It was a completely suicidal attack, and huge pits were blasted open on the hillside, each of which became a mass grave for many Imperial soldiers.

Of the two thousand men, in less than twenty minutes, not a single person was left alive, and not a single person was able to rush half a step in front of the line of the guards from beginning to end.

However, it was these 2,000 men who held back the 30,000 men of the guards, and it was these precious twenty minutes that created the opportunity for the tens of thousands of troops of the empire to land.

In a few moments, after the landing force of the Imperial Army reached 20,000 people, it quickly controlled the high ground on both sides to protect the safety of the landing ground. Then the fire support ships that rushed to the shallows began to be dismantled on the spot, the heavy decks were laid on the sand, and the soldiers who landed later dragged their heavy guns ashore.

At dusk, artillery positions of the Reichs began to appear on the heights on both sides.

The guards below immediately opened fire on them, and at first they had complete superiority in firepower. The artillery positions of the Imperials were quickly pulled out one by one after one or two attacks, but one was knocked out, and soon two appeared, two were knocked out, and four more were immediately removed.

The firepower on both sides was slowly tilting, and the Imperial Army, which had the advantage of the terrain, began to take the initiative.

At the turn of night, the Garrin Guard, already sensing the inevitability of defeat, withdrew from the battle before the Empires could launch a counterattack. This army, which was mainly composed of mercenaries of the Merchant Alliance, could not withstand a single defeat at all, and soon became demoralized, and no one believed that it could stop the iron hooves of war of the Empire.

What's more, the entire southern part of Ionia has fallen, and little Gaelin is already destined to be a victim of this war. Rebellion is nothing but more bad luck.

Now that the gods of Ionia have given up on them, how can faith in the gods still make them fight for it?

There was no suspense at all, and when the iron hooves of Noxus set foot on Girlin, all the forces of resistance had been crushed.
