"Now, just talk about it again, I'm waiting for your new report, Ivan. ”

Falconi said softly: "My eyes can't see, so there are many places where I need your help, may I ask, can I trust you?"

"Yes, Captain. Ivan raised his chest and his eyes burned again, no doubt that Falconi's trust had regained his confidence.

Ivan looked at the White Tulip and the accompanying fleet again, and replied seriously: "The other party's fleet is moving smoothly, judging from the route, they have not the slightest sign of changing the trajectory, as for the reason, it may be because they carelessly did not find us, or they found us, but did not perceive our true intentions." ”

"Dear Ivan, you see, as long as you want, you can still do things beautifully, and what you just said can be called a valuable report. ”

Falconi's voice was soothing, with some satisfaction, and he patted Ivan on the shoulder and said: "The report produced in this way is neutral and rational, it only describes things and analyzes the possibilities, so that the next judgment based on it will not have any impact, you said very well." ”

The big man Ivan nodded and said no more, leaving time for his captain to think, and he waited quietly.

Didn't the other party really find out about our existence?

Falconi himself didn't believe it, the selectors were fierce jackals, but at the same time they were as shrewd as rabbits.

Especially in this world of trials, these people who have survived until now may not be stronger than themselves in combat, but when it comes to survivability, there is absolutely no doubt.

In addition, since this guy named Wang Mancang can make high-level selectors care so much, he must have his own excels, so he has to be careful.

Falconi sighed softly and instructed Ivan to direct the ship to continue slowly approaching, his emerald green eyes staring fixedly into the distance.

Now that I'm approaching, what are you supposed to do?

......

On board the White Tulip, an explanation is underway.

"Let's wait a minute, a few bosses. Tan Liang asked in the team channel: "You have popularized this person named Bloom with me before, although we have Liangzi, but isn't he a selector higher than our class?

"Here's the problem, this guy and we are dead, as long as there is a chance, it is possible to do it at any time, Derek also wants our lives, did he do it himself?" explained Lao Wang, feeling uncomfortable in his heart.

"You mean to hire people to kill us? Is there still this way of issuing tasks between the selectors of different classes? I don't think it can be concluded that it is from his means, maybe it is an ordinary selector who is targeting us, or it is a militant who simply wants to fight, and these will not happen?" Tan Liang continued.

"Mr. Tan is right, these may all exist, but in comparison, Bloom is the most likely to send someone to attack us. Takenaka explained.

"So?" asked Mary, "what shall we say? If it is really that fellow who has sent someone, we will basically be exposed, except for the harvest of this world and our deliberate concealment, the other party should know us very well." ”

"What else can I do? I have come to the door, won't I be beaten if I shrink?" Lao Wang answered Mary's words, and then said viciously: "The plan is the plan, as long as you dare to come, we will invite you into the urn, this world has been mixed up until now, and we have not experienced it in vain!"

Boss Tan, you go to the flag, let all ships stay vigilant, directly mark that ship as an enemy, and also, the artillery position is filled now, and when they get close, we have to fire first.

In addition, don't stay at home at the lookout post, I have taken a closer look, the current sea conditions are good, and the general interactive sailors can also be satisfied when they go up to the sentry, I want you to be responsible for the gun position, so that if something happens, you can react immediately, and you don't have to run up and down.

Finally, there is Bamboo, to open the boat for Uncle, but Uncle gives you a task, no matter what, to bring them over, so that they think that their plan has succeeded, and win us the opportunity to attack first. ”

"Understood. ”

......

"Ivan, how close are we to each other?" asked Falconi as he let the ship move a little longer, turning to the big man beside him.

"It's about 600 yards now, which is still a long way off. Ivan learned a lesson, and this time he only spoke for dry goods, not even a personal comment or anything, not even a word.

"So, is there still no movement on the other side?" Falconi frowned slightly, the distance of 600 yards was already considered a dangerous distance for a ship to sail on alert, whether it was a navy, a privateer, Armed merchants or pirates, it is reasonable to find an unknown ship at this distance, and directly list the other party as an enemy ship to warn or attack, but this selector named Wang Mancang has no movement at all, let alone a selector, this is the average interactive sailor can't do such a careless thing, but the more they are like this, the more suspicious they are.

"Captain, the fleet over there has reacted. Ivan spoke suddenly, interrupting Falconi's thoughts.

"Tell me in detail. Hearing the change in the situation, Falconi grabbed Ivan's wrist and hurriedly asked, as a battle commander, he must know every move of the enemy well.

"They corrected their course and began to approach the island of Cuba, apparently on suspicion of evading us. Ivan replied.

"Avoid us, you mean avoid us?" Falconi's voice sounded even more confused, as if the other party shouldn't have chosen to do so in this situation.

"Captain—" Ivan was about to say something, but Falconi's raised index finger made him swallow what he wanted to say again.

Our ship is a sail-powered cruiser, but the other side has 7 ships, and in terms of strength, the other side is even stronger.

If I command, even if I find something wrong, fire a warning gun, a pyrotechnic warning, or even take the lead in approaching the attack, these means of asking the other party to be honest can't be used?

It's just a ship, even if it's a battleship, what can it do if you fight to the death directly? The other party is a task arranged by a high-level selector, how can it not look like a person who will be frightened, what does it mean to dodge?

......

"I said bamboo, why did you flash to the side, obviously there are many people on our boat, why do you take the initiative to dodge, isn't it suspicious. Lao Wang looked at the little guy who was repairing the rudder and wondered in the team channel.

"Uncle, don't worry about it, anyway, in the end, I will lure that guy to us, you and Miss Mary and Mr. Tan Liang will concentrate on preparing for the battle." The little guy's hand turned the rudder very lightly, but his expression was like a great enemy, and his mind was even more anxious.

The other party is the Selector, which means that they enter the trial world at the same time as us, complete the task in the same time, and gain power accumulation.

However, what does it mean that the other side can get the standardized warships of the Venetian Navy in the same amount of time? This means that the other side has a very strong ability to operate and layout, and can maximize their own power in a short period of time, and then effectively use this power to fight, it seems that they are very similar to the style of doing things in Yakuza.

In addition, the selectors generally lack literacy in naval battles, and in many cases, they still rely on their personal strength to win the battle in the broadside, so as to win the entire naval battle.

The other side's approach in this way is clearly not for the purpose of receiving the gunwale, which shows that they have considerable confidence in naval warfare, and their artillery skills must be very strong, so it is very important to seize the opportunity to fire first in the artillery battle.

Okay, I'm going to be confused if I'm running away at this time, right?

......

"Ivan. Falconi thought for a while, and asked Dahan with a serious expression: "What are they doing now, are they still slowly moving away from us?"

"Yes, Captain. Ivan said: "They seem to want to avoid the others as much as possible and concentrate on finishing the race." ”

Are they still hiding? Can they hide like this for the rest of their lives? Am I being too careful? Or are they just cowardly?

"Captain, the other side has accelerated to catch the wind, judging by the flag of the ship, their identity in this world is Dutch, so the work on the sail cable is very good, oh, their speed has risen all at once. Ivan repeated, telling Falconi what he had observed.

It's not my carefulness, it's not their cowardice!

I understand, they may be strong, but in naval battles, there should be well-known shortcomings, only in this way, they will try their best to avoid at this time, and wait until the second and third games to break out of superior strength, so it seems that these guys are not stupid, at least, they still know how to use their strengths and avoid weaknesses.

"Ivan, in your heart, do you think they are cowards and cowards?" Falconi did not rush to conclusions, but asked Ivan without a clue.

"Captain, how do you know?" Ivan's face was obviously unnatural, couldn't he even think about it now?

"It's nothing, I just want to know your most intuitive thoughts, and now, I know. Falconi smiled slightly: "Inform the sail cable and rudder position, we use pursuit tactics!"

"Yes, Captain!" the look on Ivan's face was swept away by Falconi's words.

After the big man replied excitedly, he immediately rushed to the deck with heroic steps, deploying the so-called "pursuit tactics" in the captain's mouth.

......

"Report, the sail-powered cruiser is starting to pick up speed, and the direction seems to be coming straight to the end of our line!"

"Keep watching!"

Lao Wang replied to the lookout post, and immediately said to Zhuzhong in the team channel: "Zhuzi, you heard everything, right? The guy on the other side is really brave enough to catch up." ”

"Just catch up, the average smart guy will choose to keep the distance, continue to keep with us, and then look for an opportunity, and the very smart guy will come straight to our tail. Takenaka replied as he took time out of his nervous thoughts.

"Aren't you going to make a comment on how they dared to go around our backs with a single boat?" asked Mary as she commanded the gun emplacements to be filled.

"Miss Mary, it's all this time, do we still believe that the other side doesn't have any tricks?

Although I don't know what it is for the time being, I am sure that their tricks must be there. Takenaka said coldly: "As for the technique, it is nothing more than concealed combat power, and then leveling or even surpassing our combat effectiveness in an instant, and then catching us off guard, this is still very easy to reason." ”

"So, the ship that caught up was a disguise? Hehe, hey, hey, you just said that the other party is a very smart guy, how is that better than you?" asked Lao Wang.

"I'm one of those extremely smart guys, uncle. Takenaka said, "He can't do it." ”

......

"Captain, they continued to speed up, and at the same time divided two four-masted ships at the rear of the palace to slow down and attack, if we continue to chase, we will encounter these two ships first!" said to Falconi in a hurry, although he had tried his best to restrain his light enemy according to the captain's request, but there was still a little contempt in his tone.

Falconi nodded slightly, already calculating an idea in his mind.

The other party's performance was decent, and it was very logical, two four-masted ships, if they were on an interception mission, slow down and fight with themselves, the cruiser would certainly win in the end, but the damage was unavoidable.

What's more, the battle didn't last a short time, giving the selectors a chance to escape.

The tactics were chosen properly, if it was an ordinary naval battle, it could not be said that they won on this, but it was absolutely no problem to save the fire until the second and third battles.

It seems that the other party has a cautious planner, which is completely different from being timid, and this kind of life-sparing and calm guy is even more difficult.

Hehe, even if they don't dare to fight directly, I'm afraid they don't want to risk giving themselves any chance to kill them in the shelling battle, right?

Because, until now, you have not learned my true means!

Thinking of this, Falconi made up his mind and said to Ivan in a deep voice: "Ivan, blow the trumpet of the Medici family and summon the wind that belongs to us!"

Also, inform Giovanni and Marni that the Brenno family is going to start the 'execution'!"

Ivan ignored Falconi for the first time, solemnly took out a huge conch from his bosom, put it to his mouth, and blew it vigorously.
