805 Bombardment
Although six years have passed, and Gerak and Loswich are much older than they were when they were in Southsea Town, they are still ...... Age can never hinder a man's pursuit of beauty, or beauty, can it?
"I see, Brigadier Anne, our allies, the dwarves and gnomes are ready, and soon, the first round of shelling will begin."
Dalein? Prodmore turned around at this time, put down the telescope in his hand, and said to Anne? Bonn said.
For this pirate-turned-female captain, Dalin? Prodmore can be said to be a nerve-wracking man.
Admittedly, Annie? Can Bonn own her own pirate ship as a woman among the North Sea Pirates, and be appreciated by Arthas, and after joining the kingdom of Lordaeron, she rose all the way up to become the de facto commander of the Lordaeron navy, second only to Dahlin in military rank? Prodmore himself is undoubtedly quite admirable.
Dalein? Prodmore also admired Anne? Bonn's talents, but he could not work in harmony with the brigadier general.
First of all, Annie? Bonn was loyal to Alsace alone; This also means that in the system of the alliance navy, the fleets of all countries are uniformly under the authority of Dalin? Prodmoore commanded this old custom was broken.
Aside from Arthas, Anne? Bonn was not going to take anyone's orders; For Dalein? Prodmore's conductor will do it if she thinks it's right, if she's against it...... So, before convincing her again, Dalin? Prodmore had no way to command the fleet of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
Of course, if it's just a matter of loyalty. And Annie? Bonn will not be with Dahlin either? Prodmore was too unpleasant; It's just that this Commodore of the Kingdom of Lordaeron is a woman, and the woman ...... No matter how bold and fierce the appearance is, the inside. Usually a little cautious.
In Annie? After Bonn learned of her father's death, she had asked to join the Alliance's navy, but was derailed by Dain? Prodmore refused.
What makes Anne? Bonn had always held a grudge, and she always felt that Dalin? Prodmore looked down on himself.
Of course, Dalin? Prodmore really didn't mean it, he just thought that a little girl was not old enough to go to war, who would have thought that so many things would happen later. If not Annie? Bonn, maybe Dalin? Prodmore has also been buried in the ocean of Palatine Bay.
So, Anne? Bonn never called Daerin? Prodmore "Admiral" or "King Majesty". If she was happy, she would also call Dai Lin honorific? Your Excellency Prodmore said; But women, there are always a few days of unhappiness every month, so she will also call Dai Lin? Prodmore's name. Or call him an old man, an old guy, an old stubborn or something.
"Good. With these things called 'cannons', our navy is stronger, and we can attack castles and armies on land at any time at sea and in rivers, and it will not be long before our navy will be dominant! ”
Annie? Bonn exclaimed—she was very happy, because she could finally do more for His Royal Highness Prince Alsace, who appreciated and trusted her.
"That's right...... The bombardment is about to begin, Brigadier General Anne. Are you going to go back to your own ship, or are you going to stay here? ”
Dalein? Proudmoore nodded. Continue to ask—Anne? Bonn was right, this time, the dwarves brought with them, invented by the gnomes and assembled on their own ships, called the "cannon", did change the landscape of naval warfare.
"I'll just stay here and take care of the old man by the way."
Annie? Bonn doesn't let go of any taunt Dalin? Prodmoore's chances.
"Okay......"
Admiral Dalin? Proudmoor smiled bitterly - I really don't know how long it will be to work with this eccentric brigadier general!
……
Admiral Dalin? Prodmoor's flagship was the largest warship of the Kingdom of Coultiras; But at this moment, its huge deck was empty.
"Aim, aim! Stay away from the ropes, you guys! So are you! Is it all like going to be blown up? ”
A shrill voice in Admiral Dalin? Echoing in the cabin of Prodmore's flagship—it was a dwarf with a pair of engineering glasses.
Countless human and dwarven sailors were in the cabin, working in pairs and twos, guarding a huge cylinder with one end sticking out of a hole in the outer splint and aiming at the shores of the kingdom of Gilneis.
"You guys, get ready here, too! Put the ammunition down, idiot! There's going to be an empty cannon here, understand? The empty cannon must be fired, and firing from one side will turn the ship on its side! But don't be stupid with real cannonballs! With those fakes! ”
The dwarf craftsman technician shouted cheerfully, but he didn't know in his heart that if it weren't for the fear of violating military discipline, at least half of the naval soldiers in this cabin wanted to strangle him to death immediately; And the remaining half...... They want to use knives.
As if satisfied with the results of his own shouting, the dwarf craftsman took out a greasy pocket watch from the craftsman's bag at his waist and looked at the time.
"Ready...... Fire! ”
Under the command of this dwarf craftsman technician, dozens of cannons that had been prepared for a long time fired solid cannonballs at the distant coast.
If Muradin? Copperbeard was here, and he would surely recognize that these things were Rex's new weapons outside the walls of Greymane, but in small versions.
The gnomes have brought their new invention to their relatives, the dwarves, and hope to share their guò skills to help them join the Alliance.
Just Admiral Dalin? Commodore Anne of the Kingdom of Prodmore and Lordaeron? Bonn wanted to increase the combat effectiveness of its navy, so the warships of the two countries were modified and equipped with a few or dozens of specially made aerial guns.
Today, it is the first time that these aerial guns are fired live ammunition in real combat, whether it is Admiral Dailing? Prodmore or the pirate-turned-Commodore Anne of Lordaeron? Bonn, are anxious to know the efficacy of this new weapon.
In the dwarf's vision, this weapon could expand the scale of naval warfare, which was originally only within the range of crossbow arrows, to a range of several miles; If this can really be done, then - just like Anne? As Bonn said before, the time of the navy has come.
In anticipation of the crowd, the guns of all the ships opened fire one after another; The cannon burst into the chamber with a loud sound, and then whistled towards the southern part of King Gilneth in the moonlight. (To be continued......)
