Chapter 43: The Fall of the Undead Fleet

readx;

Xerxes had never been so annoyed by the inability of his own army's magic cannon to fire, and in the face of an enemy with a fearless and sacrificial spirit, the magic cannon that could only shoot straight at it seemed so weak and unbearable......

"Lord Xerxes, it's not that we are helpless against them, we are more numerous than them, as long as the fleet shoots in waves, we can still annihilate them in one fell swoop!" Utaniv said, waving his fist. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Xerxes nodded, Utaniv was right, letting the fleet shoot in waves was undoubtedly the best attack option at this time, although it would take a lot of effort to achieve such a tactic because it could only convey information in the language of flags.

Xerxes didn't mean to delay, and immediately asked the skeleton herald to issue several orders in the flag language one after another, explaining his intentions as clearly as possible, but in the process of receiving the order, they were subjected to another round of shelling!

Moreover, this round of shelling came not only from the flying shear detachment, which was desperately advancing, but even from their rear! Two clouds of cannonballs dragging long tails of flames descended from the front and rear directions towards the battleline of the undead fleet, turning six unlucky magic warships into torches floating on the sea!

"Damn! The tin boat has arrived! Utaniv turned his head to look at the ironclad fleet that was also pulling out the battle line nine kilometers behind the rear of his own army, and said through gritted teeth.

"Shhhh What if it's the belly and back? I'm going to annihilate all these sailboats! Xerxes was unmoved, he didn't immediately adjust his formation to attack the ironclad fleet, for him, being provoked by an enemy fleet that was far inferior to his own strength, and being beaten with heavy losses, this is absolutely unacceptable, if this fleet is not completely wiped out, he will not be willing even if he goes to hell!

"Give those fools an order, fire when you're ready, don't care about the iron boats behind you, and when you destroy those broken sailboats, you will naturally have a chance to compete with those iron boats!" Xerxes shouted to the skeleton herald.

The skeleton herald was a puppet without intelligence, only knew how to obey orders, and without delay, conveyed Xerxes's orders.

To tell the truth, the zombie captains are a little numb about the rate of fire of the ironclad fleet, and they cannonball rain every ten seconds to destroy an enemy whose combat effectiveness is much weaker and has reached the end of the strong crossbow, in their opinion, it is really not a wise move, but, after all, this is the order of the commander of the fleet, Lord Xerxes, even if they have objections, they can't disobey!

At that moment, the eight magic warships that were scheduled to shoot the first wave fired a salvo at the eight battleships in the first row of the flying shear fleet!

The Magic Beam hit the enemy with unmatched speed and accuracy, detonating the ammunition on the eight Flying Shear Light Cruisers, and blasting them into a flaming wooden plank like a goddess!

"Only eight enemy ships opened fire......?" Yue Shi Niang's eyes widened suddenly, and it only took a moment for her to understand what this meant, but before she could do anything, she felt a strong force suddenly attack from her side, pushing her off the side of the boat!

In the process of falling, Yue Shi Niang stared at the culprit who pushed her into the sea with a shocked face, and exclaimed: "You? Why?! ”

The adjutant had a relieved smile on his face at the moment, and he opened his mouth to say something, but before he could say anything, his figure was swallowed up by a blinding white lightβ€”no doubt it was the second wave of attack from the fleet!

It's just that even so, Yue Siniang still understood what the adjutant wanted to say, what he wanted to say was: "Live!" ”

With a "poof", Yue Shi Niang fell into the seawater, and at this time, the fire light of the ammunition on the flying shear battleship had already reflected the blue sea water around her red, the color was blazing and bright, just like the blood in the cavity of the imperial soldiers!

"Fool, soldiers who sacrificed for the sake of the empire can go to heaven, why save me? Wouldn't it be nice for me to die a glorious battle with everyone? Yue Shi Niang burst into tears and cried in the sea in pain.

……

Seeing the complete destruction of the flying shear fleet, Du Wei's hands holding on to the telescope trembled, but it was not fear, but anger, seeing his comrade-in-arms robes being killed in front of him, but powerless anger!

Du Wei's eyes were blood-red, and he roared angrily: "I won't let go of any of these rotten bones, I won't let go of any of them!" The Imperial fleet won't take a single prisoner today, all these rotten bones will die! All of them are going to die! ”

All the officers and soldiers in the bridge were in the same mood as Du Wei at the moment, and in the face of Du Wei's words, which obviously violated the military discipline of the navy, none of them stood up to express their objections or objections, they just stared at the enemy fleet nine kilometers away with eyes that were about to erupt fire, and their fists were bloody!

……

"Aha! This is the fate of the main fleet of the provocative kingdom! This is the fate of the main fleet of the provocative kingdom! Xerxes looked at the flying shear fleet sinking in the flames with a look of enjoyment, and laughed hysterically.

A smug look also appeared on Utaniv's face, and he couldn't help but celebrate with the zombie captain next to him.

It's just that the at the top of the undead fleet didn't last long, and just a few seconds later, a round of meteor showers fell on their heads!

The flagship has been shot!

Although it took a certain amount of time for the flames to spread because it was shot in the stern of the ship, and the high-level commanders still had enough time to abandon the ship and escape, after this round of bullet rain, the ecstatic atmosphere suddenly disappeared!

Xerxes and Utanif jumped into the sea in disgrace and, with the help of the skeleton minions, boarded another magic warship.

Xerxes quickly sensed that something was wrong with the smooth process of getting on the ship, and he asked the zombie captain of the magic warship with a surprised expression: "The enemy is right in front of you, why is your ship slowing down?!" ”

Utaniv also noticed an anomaly on the side, but unlike Xerxes, he didn't have to ask to know what was going on.

"The time is up, Lord Xerxes." Utaniv's face was like an earthy face.

"Time ......" Xerxes glanced at the fleet that had slowed down until it had come to a standstill, his face turning pale for a moment.

"Our battle is over." Utanif looked up to the sky and said with a wry smile that if the undead could shed tears, he would have burst into tears by now.

Xerxes sat down in the captain's chair in a dejected manner, if the next time the ship was hit again, he would definitely not jump into the sea again.

……

"That's the price of acceleration." Du Wei sneered, there was no trace of sympathy on his face, only full of schadenfreude.

"Stop the boat, just like shooting targets on weekdays, don't let go of a single one." Du Wei used his authority to give an order to the entire ironclad fleet.

The fleet meticulously carried out the order, they approached seven kilometers away from the undead fleet very tacitly, and then spread out a large circle, surrounded the undead fleet, and after making sure that the enemy could not escape in a dinghy from the gap in their fire, they poured fire into it frantically!

Perhaps because of the hatred in their hearts, their artillery hit rate was much higher than usual when they hit fixed targets, only a dozen salvos, and there was no longer a single intact magic guide battleship in the center of the encirclement.

The pride of these immortal kingdoms, the crystallization of the highest technology of the magical civilization at present, has all turned into a huge torch floating on the sea at this moment, and slowly sank in the crackling explosion!

The ironclad fleet did not leave the battlefield, except for sending small boats to search for the survivors of the flying shear fleet, they still maintained a circle formation to surround the enemy's wreckage in the center, until the wreckage of the last battleship of the opposing side was completely submerged in the sea, and then resumed the sailing formation, and headed towards the island of Tanatos, where the undead kingdom was located, under the cover of night.

Annihilating the enemy's main fleet is only the first step for the Imperial Fleet, and they will attack the Immortal Kingdom itself, scorching it with iron and fire to force the Undead Kingdom to surrender unconditionally and withdraw from the war, drawing a perfect end to the Imperial Navy's performance in this world war.

Of course, this is only the most ideal situation, and for the undead kingdom, which already occupies one-third of the land of the Western Continent at this time, it is completely unknown whether to withdraw from the war.

However, the Imperial Navy doesn't need to take care of it so much, they just need to do their part, and for now, they have done a good job.
