Chapter 163: Drake and Luca

After this battle, the relationship between the two guilds of Saint England and Blood Shark has improved a lot from top to bottom.

It's time to defend.

A fleet of British NPCs appeared in everyone's sight on time.

After handing over the island to this NPC fleet, Wang Hao and the others embarked on the way back.

In the following time, they will have a short break to watch an epic naval battle blockbuster while resting.

This time, in the naval showdown between the NPCs of the two sides, players will not be able to intervene.

Victory or defeat depends only on the size of the fleet, the power of the ships and the quality of the crew, as well as the presence of the commander.

And if the player can't help it, he can also go to the designated place to engage the enemy player, but there is no additional benefit, and the player's victory or defeat has no impact on the duel between the two NPCs.

The members of the Holy Blood Combined Fleet, who had just experienced a fierce naval battle, were in no mood to be thrilled at this time.

Bringing all the delegates to a sub-base on his side, Wang Hao only left an order to assemble in half an hour, and let the others ** move.

For the players, the second phase of the battle is over, and they just need to wait for the outcome with peace of mind.

Wang Hao and Valerie found a place to sit alone, ready to enjoy a big battle about the upcoming outbreak of the NPCs of Britain and France.

The statistics of the two sides have been counted, and the British side has occupied a total of 183 sub-bases in France, of which 108 teams have held out until the end.

Therefore, the British side had 1,050 ships, while the French had 1,000 ships.

However, due to the superiority of the French in the early preparations, the surname of its ships would be five percent higher than that of the British ships.

Therefore, on the whole, the strength of the two sides is roughly equal, and the next thing to see is the ability of the commanders of both sides.

In a local duel like this, it is naturally impossible for the commanders of both sides to go into battle in person.

The commander of the British First Fleet was Drake, who was known as the pirate general, and the commander of the French side was Luca.

For the former, perhaps many people are more familiar with it, Drake is the biggest hero who led the LinkedIn Navy to defeat the Spanish Armada, and his ability is beyond doubt.

Many people may not have heard of the name Lyca, but the famous Battle of Trafalgar should have been heard of, which was the most important naval battle of the Napoleonic period.

In this naval battle, due to the superiority of British command, tactics and training, the French Combined Fleet suffered a decisive blow.

Coach Werneuve was captured, 21 battleships were captured. British coach Horatio. Admiral Nelson was also killed in battle.

After this battle, the elite of the French navy was exhausted, and Napoleon was forced to abandon his plans to attack the British mainland. And the position of British maritime supremacy was consolidated.

Luca was a fierce admiral in the French navy, and if he hadn't led people to the "Victory" for hand-to-hand combat, Nelson, a famous naval marshal, would not have died in this battle.

It can be said that Luca was one of the culprits responsible for Nelson's death.

Wang Hao is not very familiar with the history of the British navy, which is told by Valerie.

It is not difficult to hear from the latter's tone that she still has great resentment towards Luca, the French admiral.

Wang Hao is not an Englishman, so he can't appreciate this special feeling.

It turns out that Luca is definitely a good admiral, which can be seen from Drake's serious expression.

The two are both legendary captains, but their surnames are very different.

Although Drake was born as a pirate, his combat style was biased towards Nelson, and his ability to command the fleet was also higher than his personal combat effectiveness.

Luca, on the other hand, was a true warrior who admired hand-to-hand combat, believing that even Nelson would not want to see the madman approach his ship.

After a brief dialogue, the battle began.

Drake's flagship, the Golden Deer, was located in the center of the fleet, and his delicate command skills were on full display at this time.

And Luca was even more bold, he drove his own period, taking the lead and rushing to the front of the whole fleet.

His actions were not reckless, not only because his flagship was the most powerful ship in the entire fleet and could attract firepower for others, but more importantly, his evasive skills were also top-notch.

In the face of oncoming fire, he nimbly avoided most of them.

Only a few shells hit, but with the depth and durability of his ship, it was quite bearable.

The battle between the two sides attracted everyone's attention from the beginning, and Luca's goal seemed to be very clear, keeping an eye on the "Golden Deer", looking for an opportunity to get closer, and then start his best broadside battle, as long as he sank the opponent's flagship, he could win a naval battle.

And Drake Xia Ran also knew that the opponent was powerful, so he had no idea of a fair battle with the other party, and while he dispatched the fleet to delay the opponent's advance, the main firepower was still concentrated on other French warships.

And the French fleet immediately launched a counterattack, and the artillery fire was continuous, and the two sides went back and forth, and the fighting was not lively.

From here, we can see the background of the British Navy, whether it is in hits, dodge, or even reload speed, the strength of the British fleet is obviously a little superior.

At the same time, Luca's performance was also unstoppable, he broke through three British defenses in a row, and achieved the result of sinking 7 ships and damaging 3 ships, one of which was directly sunk by his order.

The battle has entered a white-hot stage, and both sides have used all their strength.

Battleships were torn apart by artillery fire, and the losses of both sides were more than fifty percent.

But the losses on the French side were significantly greater.

Luca didn't pay attention to it at all, because he was very close to the Golden Deer.

He firmly believes that as long as he leans on, he will be able to win this battle.

"Oops, if you want that guy to board the Golden Deer, you're probably going to lose this time." Valerie's charming face showed a hint of anxiety.

Wang Hao looked interesting, pulled it into his arms, and said: "The name of the pirate general Drake, even if I am a Chinese, I have heard of his big name, it is not so easy to lose." ”

Although Wang Hao didn't know who won this battle in the previous life, he knew that Drake, a legendary captain, was still alive and alive in the last time and space, and he was alive and well, which was enough to explain many things. (To be continued.) )
