"Mana concentrated on the port side shield!"

"Accelerate to the limit! Maintain a course of 40 degrees to the left and 30 degrees to the left!"

"Get close to the enemy troops, climb on their heads and backs!"

"Viscount-class fire-gathering! Its forbidden spell cannon fires too often, there must be a legendary mage on it!"

The artillery battle lasted another half an hour, and the Dawning Empire lost two more Baron-class ships, and one Baron-class was seriously wounded. The three Bighorn Whales of the Red Union were also seriously damaged, and the 10396 ship where Hana was located lost five turrets, and the auxiliary thrusters on the side of the ship were also blown away, and they could only maneuver counterclockwise for a while.

Hana gave the order for a surprise attack, and the three battleships tossed in the rapids, struggling to pull out of the arc queue high into the air, and in doing so, exposing a larger area of the side to the enemy, but only in this way could the firepower be maximized.

The biggest threat now comes from the opponent's other Viscount-class battleship, and the captain is likely to be a legendary mage.

Under the rule of the Dawning Empire, although the legendary magician has not reached the level of rotten streets, it is no longer the transcendent existence of the old era that overlooks all living beings, destroys cities and destroys countries, and there are still hundreds.

Most of the legendary magicians are either in high positions or have their own industry, and basically do not run to the front line of the battlefield to fight for their lives.

But there are always exceptions, and there are some legendary magicians who are not well mixed. For example, that Viscount-class battleship should be the personal asset of that legendary magician, and he must have obtained the title of Viscount of the Empire.

Three years ago, the Dawning Empire issued a new aristocratic decree that further incorporated high-ranking transcendents into the aristocratic system, while granting many privileges, including the possession of private armies. However, these "private armies", which are mainly measured by magic equipment, must be placed under the direct control of the Empire, thus gathering a large Imperial Standing Army.

This is another shield tax in disguise, but the nobles can directly command their own troops or floating ships in the war, which also means that the empire has cedicated the personnel rights of the army at the grassroots level, which is a kind of resource exchange.

After the war, the nobles basically sent agents to the battlefield, but those who picked the door had to take care of their assets in person, and those who confidently wanted to make a name for themselves on the battlefield, so there were also barons and viscounts who went into battle with the rank of major and lieutenant colonel.

The Forbidden Spell-class siege cannon of that Viscount-class floating ship fired five rounds in half an hour, and half of the damage caused by the three Bighorn whales of the Red Union was caused by that cannon.

What's even more terrifying is that if the opponent is lucky enough to hit the battleship directly with a forbidden spell, instead of just missing the AOE as now, although the battleship will not be finished directly, it will let the ethereal spirit that solves the magic turbulence in the forbidden area explode, and the consequences are unimaginable.

Take the risk to take out that enemy ship, even if there is a legendary mage on it. Although in this kind of battle, the value of the legendary mage is to double the firing rate of the forbidden cannon.

The distance between the two sides quickly narrowed, and the shield of the Red Alliance battleship was close to the hull, and the area of the bomb was not large, but it was also burned by the ray cannon and crystallized everywhere. The metal cores of the elemental shells pierced through the shield, creating large scars on the ship's armor.

The Red Alliance's naval guns carried out much more fierce firepower than before, and Thor's hammer fired the cannonballs at thirty or forty times the speed of sound, chiseling holes in the spherical shields of the Imperial warships, and the warheads hit the armor of the battleships before exploding, and the armor-piercing bursts carried the power of justice, turning everything affected within the range into fragments and even powder.

It's a pity that the bighorn whale body is not big enough, and the double-linked Thor's hammer equipped is not even as good as the ordinary Thor's hammer of the Hell Plane Army, only 80 mm caliber, which is the model carried by the scavengers, which is equivalent to stuffing eight scavengers into the hull, and the damage power is not big enough.

The Viscount-class battleship was hit by more than a dozen cannons in a moment, the hull of the ship spewed puffs of smoke and dust, and the forbidden spell siege cannon on the bow of the ship flew away with the bow of the ship, just like the previous Viscount-class battleship.

It's good that this adventure has succeeded again......

Hana thought with relief, but felt powerless. If you have four 3,000-ton killer whales in your hands, each of which is equipped with twelve 200-millimeter caliber Thor's hammers, you don't need to take risks against the imperial detachment in front of you, you just need to shoot targets from a distance.

The badly wounded Viscount-class battleship did not retreat, and the ray cannons and elemental cannons were still firing bravely. It wasn't the legendary magician Tou Tie, but the crew of the battleship, especially the Inquisitors of the Holy See of Order, who were maintaining morale.

It is true that the battleship was an aristocratic asset, but the nobility only had command and a few minor appointments. The day-to-day management of each warship was handled by the members of the Empire, and the management of military discipline was the responsibility of the Holy See, and even the nobles had to obey military discipline. In the battleships or units above the company level, there are inquisitors of the Holy See, a role that is superficially similar to that of the political commissar of the Red Federation.

This measure of "teaching the company" was naturally formulated by the Empress of Dawn, who inherited the memory of Theresia.

Although the scene is superior, the battle still has to be fought......

Hana was planning a spiral turning route, preparing to distance herself from the enemy, when the formation guard 10274 ship suddenly sent a report.

"The port thruster is damaged!

"We rushed towards the enemy!"

"It's too dangerous to stop and turn in front of the enemy, or to rise and sink, ask to ram the enemy ship!"

Hana's breathing suddenly became cloudy, and after thinking for half a second, she resolutely said, "Ask for permission, the formation will cover!"

Then add: "Get ready for a broadside battle!"

10396 and 10271 slowed down together, concentrated their fire on the enemy ship in the rear, and the 10274 ship rushed towards the Viscount-class battleship in a daze. The shields concentrated in the bow of the ship continued to burst into flames, and layers of crystals bloomed.

The enemy ship was seriously damaged, and they didn't bother to block the battleship for a while, and when they came to their senses, the 10274 ship was already less than a kilometer away from them.

The ray cannon and the elemental cannon converged on the bow of the Red Alliance battleship, and the shield was quickly disintegrated, and the entire bow was blown to pieces, but for a battleship that was traveling at a speed of hundreds of kilometers per hour and was still in opposite motion, a kilometer distance was a matter of ten seconds.

Like a thick iron pestle, the Red Union battleship slammed into the side of the Imperial battleship. The shield burst out with pieces of gold, and it only lasted for half a second before it burst open, and the Red Alliance battleship, which had lost its bow, bit into the hull of the Imperial warship with a twisted and hideous hole.

Light gold, burgundy, and crystalline light poured into the Imperial warship, and although it was completely inaudible, Hana could still imagine the sight of the killing of the enemy ship.

The Bighorn Whales of the Red Union had a crew of less than 100 people, but they took the initiative to ram and were prepared for damage to the bow of the ship, so there were no casualties. All crew members are equipped with mage weapons, and only need to attach armor modules and weapon modules to engage in broadside combat, and they are also trained in broadside combat.

The Imperial Viscount-class battleship has a capacity of more than 300 people, and there are also legendary magicians and their attendants on them. There are clergy of the Holy See of Order, there is long-term propaganda from the Empire, and the morale of the crew is not low, and they will not be intimidated by the broadside battle.

However, seeing the rapid weakening of the enemy's firepower and the penetration of a little brilliant light from the inside to the outside of the ship, we knew that the imperial side was almost collapsed at the touch of a button, and it was completely unsuitable for the Red Alliance's broadside battle.

It's inevitable, and Hana has no doubt that her side will emerge victorious.

Let's not mention that the opposing crew has not received training in broadside combat, let's just say that the equipment of both sides, the Dawning Empire is not generous enough to equip each crew with a full set of magic steel armor magic guide armament, as well as the corresponding individual weapons. There may be a small number of soldiers in charge of military discipline and land warfare who have similar equipment, but they are far inferior in quantity to the enemy who is close to a company, let alone in quality.

In less than ten minutes, the brilliance of the divine power unique to the Red Union spread over most of the area of the enemy ship, and only the front part of the place where the bridge and the elemental furnace should have not fallen yet.

"If the other party goes crazy and plays self-explosion, it will be miserable......"

Thinking so, Hana was about to give the 10274 ship an order to retreat quickly after destroying the power and weapons, not to try to seize the ship, when a clear blue light suddenly exploded in the front of the enemy ship, startling her to jump up in the bridge, and her helmet slammed into the cabin roof.

Fortunately, it wasn't a battleship that blew itself up, it looked like ......

The captain of 10396 is a magister, and he said with certainty: "That legendary mage ran away, in order to ensure the safety of teleportation, he used a lot of space stones, and clashed with the magic turbulence here, so there was such an explosion, hehe......"

The captain gloated and smiled, "The inquisitor who was going to fight him for the empire until the last moment should have been blown up, and he would not be able to see it." ”

Hana said angrily: "That is also a soul sent to the goddess of order!"

That's another battlefield, in this mortal battlefield, the Red Union team is already in sight......

Hana originally thought so, but when she saw another group of battleships wrapped in blue light appear more than ten kilometers away, her and the captain's faces turned iron-blue.

The Red Federation named this forbidden area Hunter Sky Reef to commemorate the explorers who died to survey the forbidden area, and the Dawning Empire named it Betmund Forbidden Zone 1012, which later generations of mortals will ultimately use depends on the outcome of the war and even the course of history.

The battle between Hana's detachment and the Imperial warships was only a tip of the air battle that broke out here in May 1232. She and her soldiers faced only a small part of the enemy, and the Red Union Navy was not just her small detachment.

In the deep sky, thousands of kilometers away from the level of this battlefield and hundreds of kilometers higher, several Red Alliance warships were in a state of concealment, and in the center of the alert formation, in the flagship command bridge, the commander of the First Fleet of the Red Alliance Navy, Hu Keelon, was on the table with his elbows crossed, his palms crossed to support his chin.

Old Hook stared at the real-time tactical diagram on the screen, because the information in the forbidden area was insufficient, it was only a general outline, but the glint in his eyes seemed to know the battle situation well, and nothing was missed.

He seemed to be saying to himself: "Are there still no traces of the Empire's Marquis-class warships and Earl-class motherships?"

A mechanical girl with a light purple ribbon on her forehead and the word "102" popped up on the edge of the screen, and said in a stereotypical tone: "According to the analysis of the overall change curve of the magic field, the empire has not invested in floating ships above the viscount level. The battle for airspace in the atmosphere below is also still carried out with Baron-class small motherships. ”

Old Hook continued to mutter, "What does this mean? The Khante Reef is all over Bellemund, one of the seventeen Reefs that control the Valentine airspace, and the Empire has not dared to play its hole cards yet. Do you want to have a big wave when the time comes, or do you actually have no hole cards and don't dare to pull out their precious large warships for a dry fight?"

The mechanical girl said: "There are both possibilities, but there is currently insufficient information to make a specific analysis. ”

Old Hook snorted, "So, little one, it still depends on my determination, right?"

"Naval Tactical Ethereal Staff", the mechanical girl number 102 has no mood swings: "The detachment has moved forward and taken position, and the fleet is waiting for orders. ”

The avatar of his old partner Randall popped up on the screen, and he was sitting at the front line: "Old Hook, it's time, the pressure on the front line is almost to the limit." ”

Old Hook nodded and said lightly, "So...... Sortie ......"

Pieces of octagonal golden rays bloomed, and the battleships grew from scratch, rapidly outlining their outlines. The roar of jet thrusters on the tail and sides propelled the simple, polished and beautiful battleship forward into the boiling battlefield ahead.

At the edge of the forbidden area, just as the Imperial warships were about to join up with the remnants of the enemy, and Hana began to seriously consider retreating, the airspace above suddenly lit up with a golden light, and ripples that tore through the space poured down, covering the new force like rain.

Clusters of white and blue light flickered violently, devouring the Imperial warship. Hana and the captain looked up in astonishment, and through the transparent roof of the bridge, the two warships broke through the forbidden area storm and hurried towards them.

The channel sounded the message of the arrival of friendly troops: "Here are the 10281 and 10282 formations, ordered to support, just arrived." ”

Hana pressed the podium to keep her body from softening.

That's two killer whales......

The killer whales were on the high ground, harvesting the remnants of the enemy with more intense and accurate firepower, and the Imperial warships retreated in haste, and even one was caught in the storm, breaking into several pieces, and sinking into the frenzied vortex.

Now you can take care of Bailin, he should have been on the rescue transport plane and on his way back to base.

Hana thought with relief......

But as soon as this thought arose, another volcanic thought filled the whole body and mind.

Looking at the heroic posture of the two killer whales, Hana and the captain pounded the table with their fists at the same time.

"We're going to change ships!"
