Chapter 69 Full Preparations

Gangzi paused the testing of the three-masted Elven Treant Battleship One, and instead found Joey and Mark at the foot of the World Tree, who were lying on the World Tree pleading.

"Just one day, even if it turns back to adult planting for a day, I just want to go a little farther away to see, the World Tree, Pabo Asab, please, I know you can hear my plea, I just need a day."

"Just promise Joey, World Tree, I'm willing to give my day to Joey."

Joey and Mark, who have become ancient species, have not changed much in height, but their diameter has doubled, and their branches and leaves have become thicker and greener, and they are more full of strength.

"It seems that the World Tree is not intended to turn you back into adults." Seeing the two Treants crying so energetically, Gangzi didn't have the worry when he came, but he understood Joey's dream all along, and he was afraid that the sudden change would make him unable to think of doing something stupid, such as self-harm in order to meet the standards of the three-masted elven Treant battleship or something, and now it seems that there is no need to worry too much.

"I blame you, why didn't you build the three-masted elven treant battleship sooner, so that Joey could fulfill his wish." Mark saw Gangzi arrive, and the anger that accompanied Joey to cry here for three days finally found an outlet.

"Mark, you can't be rude to Master Gangzi, none of us knew that we would suddenly evolve into an ancient species, I just hope that the World Tree has a way to make me return to the adult species, even if it is from the juvenile species." Joey stops Mark from growling at Gangzi, still hoping for the World Tree.

Gangzi ignored Mark, and he said to Joey: "You have evolved to the ancient species and can't get on the three-masted elven treeman battleship, you shouldn't come to the World Tree, you should come to me." ”

When Joey heard Gangzi's words, there seemed to be a turning point, and he immediately asked anxiously, "Your Excellency, can you ask us to board the three-masted elven treeman battleship?" ”

"Nope! Don't be disappointed, now that you've gotten bigger, we can build bigger warships to carry you. So don't worry about your evolution into the Ancient Species, your strength means that we will have more powerful ships. ”

Joey rejoiced: "Your Excellency is going to build us a bigger battleship!" ”

"It is estimated that the larger battleship will not be built in a short time, but I am going to renovate the 'Flying Henan', and I can add front and rear batteries to the 'Flying Henan' at that time, so I sincerely invite you Joy Joyce and Mark Brooke to become members of the 'Flying Henan', and I believe that the 'Flying Henan' with you will become a greatest battleship."

"Great, I'm joining, I love Kristol's battles, adventures so much, I'm willing to give my strength and life for you."

"I'll go wherever Joey goes?"

"Then on behalf of the 'Flying Henan People', I welcome the two of you to join, now before the completion of the transformation of the 'Flying Henan People'. Please begin artillery training that matches your identity! ”

After pulling Joey and Mark into his command, Gangzi happily continued to test the three-masted elven treeman battleship No. 1.

Facts have proved that the three-masted battleship is not a simple enlargement of the two-masted battleship, and some structures that are not problematic in the two-masted battleship are dangerous hidden dangers on the three-masted battleship.

The various problems that leaked out during the test of the three-masted elven tree man battleship made Gangzi have to design the second ship. In the process of designing the second ship, Gangzi obviously felt the ease of drawing, thanks to the concentrated study these days, with his current knowledge, and then looking at the design drawings of his original three-masted elven tree man battleship, it was simply flawed everywhere.

"Increasing the layout of the mast in the central turret is completely wrong!"

"These compartments should be reduced to increase the pressure of the dispersion. Instead of magnifying the pressure to concentrate. ”

"Oh! Oh my God, what an idiot for this mistake, how did I get back alive. ”

With an expanded field of vision and knowledge reserves, the blueprints for the three-masted elven treeman battleship No. 2 quickly took shape. The Elven Shipyard has again begun the emergency construction of the second ship.

Time is lost day by day in fullness.

The second ship of the three-masted elven treant was completed,

The No. 2 ship of the three-masted elven tree man battleship passed various sea tests,

The Elven Navy ordered two three-masted Elven Treant warships from the Elven Shipyard.

Two three-masted Elven Treant warships were built and delivered to the Elven Navy.

Gangzi spent two and a half years in the Emerald World to build an elven fleet that matched his vision: three three-masted elven treemen warships and ten two-masted treemen battleships. With 150 sloops, this is a fleet unique on the Emerald Ocean.

After meeting the Elven King and requesting a sea attack on the Orc Kingdom, it was approved and authorized. Tsuyoko boarded the three-masted elven treeman battleship he named "Jungle Corner".

Looking at the surrounding group of elven naval ships that were ready to go, Gangzi sorted out his military uniform, and ordered up and down the bridge: "Raise the flagship flag, all the elven fleets set off, this time our strategic goal is to destroy all the sea forces of the orcs, destroy all the coastal cities and facilities of the orcs with our shells, and make the orc kingdom a landlocked country." ”

The "Horn of the Jungle" sailed out of Elf Harbor and headed north, and the other three-masted elven treemen battleships and two-masted elven treemen battleships quickly discharged a vector marching formation behind it to form a capital ship group, and the other sloops except for a part of the elven galleys that stayed around the capital ship group to be responsible for guarding and acting as a liaison, the other sloops all passed over the side of the capital ship group, scattered into a large area and reconnoitred in the direction of the main fleet.

This was the first all-out attack of the elven fleet since it was re-established, and it was also the first active attack of the elven fleet since the war between the orcs and the elves.

But the elven fleet is not blindly heading north, they don't know how many times they have practiced in the simulated war room and the elven sea for this moment, and each warship and each elf have been trained by their own duties as skillful as eating. The neat main fleet sailed on the sea, and the sloops and elves rooked sailed flexibly between the ships, sending all kinds of information and instructions to the captains.

On the elven ships, the elven sailors were inspired by the spirit of Bucknar's training, and he used every rule of the naval code to strictly demand all the elves who joined the navy, and he arranged a mission for the elves who had no task and nowhere to vent their elves, "decorate your warships".

Battleships are the second home of sailors, and the battleships built from shipyards are exactly the same, how to distinguish your own warships from other warships? I don't want flags or camouflages. We elves are good at carving, go boys! Unleash your imagination to shape your own battleship, the elven battleship is a mighty weapon or a beautiful work of art, when friends see your battleship will be enchanted by its gorgeous appearance, and when the enemy fleet your warship will only see horror and destruction.

At the beginning, Bucknar said that he wanted to solve the problems of long voyages, sailors fighting, and alcoholism. Every elf is an artist, and when they learn that they can decorate their ships and carve them into their own unique shapes, all the elven sailors, having done everything, devote themselves to decorating their homes.

"Bucknar really did, but elves are born artists. I'm not going to be able to spread this to my fleet. "Gangzi stroked the unicorn carved on the handrail of the bridge, and the fine lines came to life," Elizabeth, tell the sailors that they must ask the permission of the boatmen before they want to carve into the ship, and that deep carving is forbidden in important parts, and I don't want to find a hole in the bottom of the ship one day. ”

"Yes, sir, do you think we're going to paint the Horn of the Jungle white?"

"Yes, but the white paint will be very ugly if it is a little dirty." Gangzi watched the fleet's marching queue through a telescope. He replied.

"We recently researched a cleansing magic array that can be carved into the hull of the ship, so that it is not afraid of getting dirty."

Gangzi was surprised: "The magic array was actually researched by you?" ”

Elizabeth said proudly, "Of course, I designed this magic array. This is also the first magic circle that the Elven Magic Association has researched, and it proves that magic can indeed be stored and released for a long time. ”

"Then have you researched a magic array that can increase the defense of the ship's hull?" Gangzi asked anxiously.

"No, I wanted to build the cleansing magic into the magic circle so that I could just embroider the magic circle on my clothes. You don't have to do laundry in the future. ”

Yes...... I didn't expect such a great progress in the history of magic to be because of the lazy idea of an elf MM who is unwilling to wash clothes!

Gangzi asked again, "Didn't your Magic Association develop an offensive or defensive magic?" ”

Elizabeth replied very dryly: "No, the magic construction we have now can only release the elements flexibly. Steely attacks and defenses require more complex magical structures, which are still very far away for us, but I'm sure I'll see magic in its glory in my lifetime. ”

Brother felt ridiculed again, living in the elven kingdom, listening to their calculations for decades or hundreds of years at every turn, it really made people vomit blood.

The lifespan of the elf is enviable, so don't think about it anymore.

For this war, the elven navy is very well prepared, and all the way are sloops of elven galleys responsible for monitoring the movements of the orc fleet. They have monitored the coastal waters of the orc kingdom in all directions, and when they encounter orc ships, if the other party is few, they will be destroyed, and if the other party is more, they will be temporarily avoided, and as long as the superior performance of the elf warship does not love to fight, the orc ships will not be able to catch them at all. Under the constant harassment of the sloops and elven galleys, the orc ships did not dare to go too far from the sea.

So when Gangzi led the elven fleet to the outer sea of the Orc King City's Bone Land, the orcs still didn't know anything about this fleet.

The elven fleet enters the final stage of preparation before the attack, and Gangzi once again boards a dhow and rushes to the orc harbor for a pre-battle inspection.

After realizing that the canoe fleet was a complete death-sending practice, the orcs have been researching taller and larger ships. However, they had no experience or knowledge in building large ships, and only relied on ropes and iron nails to pile up the wood, but before they could pile it up to the height they wanted, the hull fell apart due to the pressure of their own gravity.

In the past two years, the orc warships have been repeating failures, and in recent months they have come up with ships that meet the standards they have in mind.

But in Gangzi's eyes, the orc battleship moored in the orc harbor at this time is not a warship at all, and the ten-meter-wide and thirty-meter-long raft that is savagely tied up by using logs is the main body of the orc battleship, and there are two rows of oars on both sides of the raft, as well as several huts for orc sailors to rest, and in the middle of the raft is a ladder that can be raised and lowered.

The tactical idea of the orcs is still savage hand-to-hand combat, since it is impossible to raise the hull of the ship, it is also a solution to ask the orc soldiers to quickly reach a height where they can jump onto the enemy ship in the event of a battle.

Such a battleship for boarding. The Orc Kingdom made two hundred. In addition, they built a large number of cantonment ships, and when the boarding ship docked on the enemy ship, the orc soldiers on the cantonment ship would jump on the boarding ship and rush to the enemy ship along the ladder. The orcs built 500 warships, each of which could carry 100 orcs, plus the orc soldiers on board the ships and countless canoes, this time the orc fleet requisitioned 70,000 orcs.

"This orc fleet is unprecedentedly powerful, the elven warships can't stop the advance of this army at all, even if we lose half of the orc soldiers at sea, our army attacking the elven royal city is more than the total population of the elves. In the drumming of the soul war drums, the orc soldiers will exert twice the combat effectiveness, we will easily wipe out the elven race, our war against the elves has dragged on for too long, the majesty of our orc kingdom is being lost, those races that are prostrate at the feet of our orcs are already questioning the rule of our orcs, the minotaur miners have launched several riots, it's time for them to look at the butcher's knives of our orcs again, and kill all the elves. Bringing back the remnants of the Treants and stocking them in the plantations we have prepared for them, we need a steady stream of soul war drum materials. ”

With the order of the Orc King, the orc soldiers of the orc fleet assembled on the flat ground of the harbor. All kinds of supplies began to be carried to the orc warship.

An orc fleet ready to attack was what Gangzi saw through the telescope at this time.

The ships that filled the orc harbor were crowded like an extended land, and the orcs could walk on it at will, and the orc tents on the ground were so continuous that there was no end in sight. Nastrom, who was following Gangzi to check the orc fleet, was frightened by the scene in front of him and swallowed his saliva: "So many orcs! It seems that the orc fleet is going to launch an attack on the elven kingdom immediately! We should attack them overnight. While their ships have not yet gone to sea, they are all destroyed. ”

"No!" Gangzi put away the binoculars, "Tell the fleet to retreat back to the Elven Sea." ”

Nastrom hurriedly said: "Lord Admiral is on the Elven Sea, and we can't stop the advance of so many orc warships. Once they were asked to land in Elven Harbor, the battleships we had spent so much time building would be meaningless. ”

Gangzi looked at Na Stron strangely: "Orcs landed in Elven Harbor?" I don't know why you have such a ridiculous idea. I didn't assemble this elven fleet to stop the orc fleet, but to annihilate them. But if we destroy the orc warships now, it will not be a loss for the orc kingdom at all, and they can build more of this kind of rudimentary ships casually. Our goal in this battle should be on the orc army on the shore, put them on the sea to destroy them, so that they can't run away if they want to, the loss of 70,000 orc soldiers even the populous orc kingdom will feel broken, and the orcs we are going to fight in this battle will tremble when they hear the elven navy. ”

"But my lord, you said to retreat."

"It's to retreat, my estimate of the size of the orc ship is biased, and the cannonballs carried by our battleship are insufficient," Gangzi said to Nastron while calling the sloop elf paddle sailboat back to the capital bridge, "Inform Elven Harbor to send us more cannonballs, make stone shells if there are no iron bullets, mobilize all the elves that can be mobilized to make cannonballs, and call all the treeman throwers in the Unicorn Lake training camp to be on standby in Elf Harbor, ready to replace the tired active treeman throwers, 70,000 orcs, We're going to send them all into the sea. ”

Gangzi did underestimate the orc fleet, he didn't expect that the length of the orc ships would be the same as the three-masted sailing ships, and he also crammed so many orcs into the ship in a frenzy, completely ignoring the possible sinking caused by overloading in the eyes of the ship, maybe they are naturally accustomed to survival of the fittest, and after the weak orcs on the ship die on the way to sail, the remaining strong orcs can enjoy a "comfortable" space.

The plan changed, the elven fleet began to retreat, and Gangzi set the location of the ambush on the orc fleet in the Elven Sea, which is close to the elven harbor, shortening the distance of supply, and can keep the elven fleet in good combat condition.

The elven fleet was afraid of being discovered by possible orc ships, so it turned around from the open sea back to the elven sea, and the size of the orc fleet and the news of its imminent departure to the south had been delivered to the elven king with a sloop elf galleys, along with the suggestion that Gangzi needed all the elves to mobilize.

70,000 orcs are already three times the population of the entire elves, and after the elven king got this information, he immediately carried out the general mobilization of the entire elven kingdom according to Gangzi's intentions, and all the members of the elven kingdom gathered to process cannonballs for the elven fleet at the time of life and death. The Treants are also concentrating on Elven Harbor, and they are preparing for the worst, "Once the Elven Fleet does not block the advance of the Orc Fleet, then the Treant Throwers will be the last line of defense for the Elven Kingdom's coastal defense."
