Alpine town, on the coast. novel

The seven hundred warriors trained by Rollin had all gathered here, and in the waters behind them were more than three hundred fishing boats of various kinds.

Most of these fishing boats were requisitioned from the townspeople, and they were very cheap, and each one was only a gold coin, and the townspeople were rushing to get out of the boats. Of course, cheap is not good, these fishing boats, the largest can seat five people, the smallest is only two.

However, because the ship is small, the speed is not bad, and the sails are pulled up and the wood pulp is not slower than those ordinary merchant ships, of course, this is not comparable with the water wheel warships of the Vendôme Navy.

Luo Lin stood on the beach to make a final mobilization: "Brothers, there is only one purpose for this battle, we are going to rob the ships of the 'reef', rob their gold coins, and rob their weapons!" Why? Because we're lions, we need these things, and those weak bunnies just have them, so grab them all and let them dive bare-bottomed! ”

Well, Luo Lin's words are very rough, but the soldiers present are all big and rough, and they don't understand any big truths, they have been training with Luo Lin in the past few months, and they are very impressed by Luo Lin's force, at this time Luo Lin's prestige has been stabilized, and all the soldiers are looking at him, and at this time they are also lightly mobilized, raising the weapons in their hands and shouting: "Rob the pirates!" ”

"Okay, get on board!" With a wave of his hand, Rollin walked out onto the beach. Reach out and drag the largest fishing boat down the beach.

Although this ship is the largest. But it's not that big. It is only seven meters long and two meters wide, and the weight of weapons and equipment and food is enough to sit five people.

Of these five people, in addition to Rollin, Narosa naturally followed, as well as Wolf and Horn.

After several months of intensive training, the wild wolf has also made great progress. He has a good physical foundation, especially his strength. In Luo Lin's eyes, he is now an 18-level warrior, although he has not comprehended the power of anger, but his body has reached 120, which can be regarded as a strong man.

As for Horn, although he has been in charge of the internal affairs of the territory in the past few months, he gradually looked for a few talents, and the work on his body was divided, and he naturally followed the training. This guy is really smart. The talent is also excellent, although the training time is less than that of the wild wolf. But the achievement is not low, even 2 levels higher than the wild wolf, he is already a level 20 warrior, and his physical quality faintly breaks through the elite level, which is worthy of being a figure who can become the commander of the coalition in later generations.

The other soldiers also dragged the fishing boat into the sea and rowed the boat. For a time, hundreds of fishing boats on the sea went hand in hand, and for a while, there was some momentum.

After walking for a few miles, the sky was beautiful, and the wind direction on the sea changed, just in the direction of Parrot Island.

"Set sail!" Seeing this, Rollin shouted the order.

There is also a personal soldier named Yopuni in his boat, who has been a fisherman for generations, has a very strong fishing ability, and is famous in Gaoshan Town, so he is responsible for assisting Luo Lin in commanding the fleet, and is also responsible for piloting, which is regarded as a role such as a military advisor.

After the sail was lifted, the speed of the fleet suddenly increased greatly, and the wind rushed towards Parrot Island.

"My lord, at this rate, you should be able to reach Parrot Island at about seven o'clock in the evening." Yopuni Road.

Originally, fishermen were most afraid of night sailing, because it was difficult to distinguish the direction, but Rollin had already asked Bernard to smuggle a batch of military compass from Vendôme, and the young man Yopuni also had the ability to distinguish the position of the stars, so as long as he didn't encounter a storm along the way, he definitely didn't have to worry about getting lost.

Rollin is relieved of Yopuni's ability, don't look at this young man's young age, but he has been out of the sea with his father for seven years, and his brain is also smart, and he is an absolute professional.

The boat traveled very fast, riding the wind and waves all the way, and by four o'clock in the afternoon, it had already covered most of the distance.

At this moment, there is an endless sea of water in all directions, and it seems that it will never reach the end. The boundless sea water, the small wooden boat under his feet, Rao is Luo Lin's heart is tenacious, and he can't help but be intimidated by the power of nature, and he is silent for a while.

"My lord, look at the birds in the sky, look at the green parrots, this bird has the strength to show that we are very close to Parrot Island." Jopuni pointed to the birds in the sky and said joyfully.

This is good news, Luo Lin was also relieved, and said with a smile: "Very good." ”

Unexpectedly, Narosa suddenly pointed to one of the seas and said, "No, master, I'm afraid it's very bad, look over there!"

Luo Lin looked over, but didn't see anything: "It doesn't seem to be anything, right?" "He's not so sure, because in terms of eyesight, Narosa has a racial talent that surpasses him by a lot.

But before he could finish speaking, the news came out of Zhi Brain: "The Vendôme naval warship has been discovered." ”

As soon as the news came, Rollin felt a small picture appear in his field of vision, which was an enlarged version of the sea he saw, in which a black dot appeared on the horizon.

The image was zoomed in again, but it was the mast of the ship, with an azure banner floating on it, and the flag was enlarged, and on it was a crossed sword and musket, which was the heraldic pattern of Lord Primor.

How could the Vendôme Navy appear here, Rollin felt that something was wrong, he narrowed his eyes, pretended to watch carefully, and then nodded: "I also saw that there are three warships, coming towards us." ”

Horn and the wolf didn't see it, but Rollin and Narosa were very powerful, so they naturally didn't have any suspicions. Horn frowned and said, "According to what Bernard said, this is not the patrol area of the Vendôme Navy, why are they here, are they also here to encircle and suppress pirates?" ”

"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Rollin felt a hint of ominousness, and he turned to Narosa and said, "You go and inquire about the situation." ”

"Yes, master." Narosa immediately jumped into the water, her tail swinging, and she swam quickly in the direction of the warship. The snake demon is originally an amphibious race, and in the water, Narosa is like a fish in water. She can even hold her breath in the sea for half an hour.

A white line on the surface of the sea flew away. The others could only wait patiently on the ship for news from Nalosha.

………………

Vendôme fleet.

The fleet had three battleships. Each of these warships is more than 90 meters long and nearly 30 meters wide, and a layer of iron is wrapped around the hull, especially the bow, which is reinforced with special emphasis and a collision tip. At the stern of the ship, a row of propellers can be clearly seen spinning at a real high speed, pushing the water backwards continuously, a unique water turbine of Vendôme, the perfect result of dwarven craftsmanship and magic, and the ship can still move forward even in stormy weather.

This is the watership ironclad that Vendôme is proud of.

At this time, the sailors at the observation post of the battleship sailing at the forefront seemed to have noticed something, and he put down the monocular in his hand, raised the brightly colored flag in his hand, and waved it on the deck. It's the flag slogan, which means: "Discover the target!" ”

The sailors on the deck immediately rushed to the command cabin. Reported to the fleet commander.

Commander Hansen was a sturdy middle-aged man, wearing naval armor that shone with a metallic silver glow, and a spotless silver-trimmed blue-bottomed battle robe. When the sailor arrived, he was playing against his lieutenant, the Senior Magician, Dorey.

Hearing the news, he smiled slightly, and a word fell in his hand, and a murderous moment appeared on the chessboard: "It seems that the prey has appeared." ”

Although the magician Du Rui has a very high talent in magic, but his chess strength is not as good as Hansen, he was contemplating and struggling to deal with it, but now that he has a military situation, he just took the opportunity to make a truce, pushed the chessboard, and said with a smile: "Haha, next time we will fight." ”

Hansen laughed, didn't say anything about the adjutant's thoughts, turned his head and stretched out his hand to the soldier next to him, and the soldier understood and took the binoculars. The Commander's telescope lenses were polished with precision crystal, and the function was only stronger than that used by the lookout sailors, and Hansen stepped out of the command module and looked out at the sea ahead.

Soon, he found the target, and when he saw the dense and simple fishing boats, Hansen couldn't help laughing, he handed the telescope to Du Rui beside him, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that my dignified North Sea ironclad fleet would actually fire on this group of dilapidated wooden plank ships. ”

Du Rui also saw the opponent this time, looked at it for a while, and sighed: "Although there is no glory in this battle. However, this group of people organized a fleet without authorization, although it was a dilapidated fishing boat, but it also violated the laws of Vendôme, which was a provocation to us. ”

"Well, that's right." Hansen nodded, the sea around Vendôme is their world, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and the same is true in this sea.

He turned his head and ordered, "Collect the sails!" Burn the wind! Get ready for battle! ”

With a command, the sails used to save magic power on the three ironclad ships were immediately retracted, and at the same time, the water turbines immediately ran at full speed, and the sea water behind the ships was suddenly surging, and a puff of white water vapor came out of the chimney, which was the inert water element discharged after the fierce operation of water magic, and the speed of the ironclad ships suddenly doubled, and they rushed towards the fishing fleet in front of them like three sharp swords.

The soldiers on the ironclad ship also began to get busy, and various orders came and went.

"Heat the barrel! Heated barrels! ”

"Check the ammo!"

"Load the mana crystal and smooth the mana output!"

These were the voices in the cabin, and with these orders, the guns on both sides of the ironclad suddenly opened, revealing dark holes, which were dwarven guns, and there were as many as thirty on each side.

The barrel of these cannons is slightly red, indicating that it has been heated and is in a state of mana, in order to ensure the maximum power of the shell, and at the same time, the fire magic in the barrel can also minimize the wear and tear on the barrel wall.

The deck was also busy.

"Musketeers, in position!"

One by one, the soldiers rushed out, evenly distributed behind the protective plates on both sides of the deck. Naval warfare is not suitable for the use of swords, so the lord of Vendôme spent a lot of money to buy muskets from the dwarves, these magic muskets can be compared to bows and arrows, the power is even more than that, and even easier to use than bows and arrows, a little training can form combat effectiveness, the only drawback is that the price is really expensive. A shot costs a hundred gold coins, and with the financial resources of the lord of Vendôme, it can only be used in the navy, but the army is not enough, and when fighting on land, cold weapons are rampant, and strong people are everywhere, and the power of this musket is greatly weakened, so it is not cost-effective.

The whole preparation process took only five minutes. Five minutes ago, the ironclad was a gentle lion, but now, the lion had bared its fangs.

Although the opponent was weak, the fleet did not take it lightly, and used the strongest force as soon as it came up, ready to tear the opponent to pieces in an instant.

Commander Hansen looked out at the sea level ahead, it was still calm, they were still some distance from their opponents, and without binoculars, they couldn't see the fishing boats with the naked eye. However, Hansen had already anticipated the image of the fishing boat being torn to shreds.

"Hehe, it's going to be a massacre!" With a sneer on his face, he returned to the command room, the disparity in strength between the two sides of the battle was too great, there was no need to command at all, he just waited quietly for victory.

At this time, no one noticed that next to the ironclad ship, there was a thin white line that was rapidly extending towards the fishing boat, and the speed of this white line was so fast that the speed of the ironclad ship was far from being comparable to her, and soon, the white line disappeared into the distant seawater.
