Chapter 31: A Gamble
The handsome blonde man, taking a look at the battle situation, did not hesitate, and also used the slowest gunboat in the fleet and moved.
His line-up was almost identical to that of Swan.
If you draw a line between the two, it's the central island!
If the two armies can meet in the center, they will have a huge strategic advantage.
They will have 2 heavy gunboats, fast gunboats, ramming interceptors, receiverships, command flagships, and the simplest way, as long as the two flagships are side by side, the forces of protection can be shared, and the liberated powerful fleet can attack the pirates with all their might.
Two fists are hard to beat four hands.
No matter how brilliantly the Pirate King uses the fleet, he can't stop the absolute superiority of the double force!
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
Captain Mustache was the last to sort. As if he had some deep hatred for Jack, he moved a gunboat and headed for Jack's domain!
Jack's face changed, he glanced at the hostile mustache, and muttered a few words, apparently an acquaintance.
It was Du Pre's turn again.
Du Yu still looked like a rookie, fiddling with the 5 ships in his own sea area.
In the eyes of the 5 people, all kinds of contempt appeared at the same time.
This guy obviously doesn't have any command experience and is a rookie.
The pirates were already unimpressed with him, and Swan and Will were pleased with his generous offer of charts.
This kind of injustice is always the most popular existence at the gaming table.
But no one else will choose him as the first wave of attacks.
The situation on the field is relatively clear.
The combined Will and Swan navies are the pirates' worst enemies, and they must not allow them to meet up.
But the pirates are also torn apart, Howling Wind and Jack are not convinced by each other, Mustache is hostile to Jack, but Jack seems to have done something bad and does not want to face Mustache.
Jack gets his wish to be rewarded by Anemo Island, and as expected, he chooses to strengthen the Black Pearl. But instead of choosing the god of the north wind and the favor of the god of wind, he chose to sail with the wind: for one turn, the ship moves +3.
Obviously, Captain Jack, who loves speed and adventure, chose the ability to seal his throat with a sword instead of regular speed combat.
Du Yu also found that compared to other people's Black Pearl, Jack's Black Pearl always felt faster than others, although it was the same 3 bar speed.
He observed it for a moment, and then it dawned on him.
Jack's Black Pearl, which always takes the S-shaped route, can go the farthest in the hexagonal chart.
With this sword's ability to seal the throat, everyone subconsciously protects their flagship more tightly, the Black Pearl, which has the terrifying ability to walk 6 squares in one round!
Howling Wind prefers the orthodox naval battle layout, and every step is extremely steady. His fleet, gunboats, flagships, was always escorted by rammers and interceptors, and fast gunboats cruised around.
After a while, the battle raged, but no one expected that the first to attack would be Captain Mustache, and his target would be Jack, who was also a pirate!
Jack's Black Pearl was incomparable, but his other warships, apparently disjointed, were caught off guard by the mustache's speed attack formation.
This mustache was shaped like a flame, and put the flagship at the back of the arch, only a black pearl watched, but the interceptor and ramming ship was unstoppable, heading straight for Jack's fleet!
Jack only had time to turn the gunboat before he was rampaged by the flying Dutchman, and the boatmen in front of him were overturned!
After the Flying Dutchman rammed and slowly retreated, the Queen Anne Avenger stepped forward and fiercely unfurled the broadside.
The reason why the Queen Avenger is known as the king of broadside battles is because it has been transformed by black magic, and when the shipside fights, the cables and mast ropes on the side of the ship will wrap around the enemy like poisonous snakes, so which ship can win the broadside battle?
Seeing that Jack's fleet was about to lose a valuable battleship, Jack's Black Pearl, appeared around the mustache's flagship in time to harass the empty rear!
The mustache had no choice but to withdraw the large dominant fleet and protect the flagship.
Howling Wind cursed Jack for being useless, and his fleet, having firmly occupied Vulcan Island, equipped the Spirit with curvilinear cannon, and the ship's front and rear guns gained the same attack power as the flanks.
He then sent the fleet to Swan's flank!
The basic rule of this game is that you can't allow one family to dominate!
With the pirates in a civil war, the only thing to do is to prevent Will from joining forces with Swan.
With the [Curve Canon] ability, it originally took one turn to adjust the direction of the gunboat, but now that it is not needed, the Spirit can fire while moving forward!
The flanks of the Swan fleet were suddenly hit by the Endeavour like a rain of artillery fire.
This cross tactic, which is impossible to appear in real naval battles, appears in the fleet under the command of Howling Wind!
Who is Howling Wind?
The pirate king of the South Jiuding Kingdom and Southeast Asia.
How many battles did he command?
5 identical ships, put in his hands, it is like coming to life, each round can only take one chess piece, but the arrangement is orderly, quiet, but a set of sinister tactics are used, the power is incomparably great, worthy of the command of the pirate king, strategizing!
Seeing that Swan was in distress, Will was so anxious that he immediately chose to take a desperate step and cross the central sea.
A smile flashed in Howling Wind's eyes.
One of the settings of this pirate chess game is that the Central Sea has the most legendary reward islands, but also the most sea monsters!
In the center of the Warcraft-like MF battlefield, there are mermaids who make the fleet lose their ability to move for a turn, sea monsters that risk the loss of ships, and Wolf's Tooth Reef, which is rocky and rocky!
But if Will doesn't cross, he will have to cross other seas, not to mention the branches, the key is whether Swan can hold out to his own aid under the attack of the howling wind!
Sure enough, the reckless Will soon paid the price for his youthful impulse, and his ship encountered a merfolk in the Central Sea, and the graceful singing disoriented crew was lost, and the ship automatically lost its mobility for a turn.
Whistling Wind smiled slightly, and continued to unleash all his strength on Swan.
But what is surprising is that Miss Swan, although she has never been to the Royal Naval College in London and received Nelson's naval education, she is intelligent and instinctive, and fights with Howling Wind. The whole fleet shrunk into a group, with the flagship in the center, the rammer and the receiver alternated left and right, the gunboats firmly entrenched, and the fast sailing ships constantly rushing and interspersed.
This is the best defensive strategy in pirate chess - since there is no pursuit of movement speed, all five ships can be commanded by the flagship and their power is bonus, while Howling Wind is bound to be unable to advance and retreat together in pursuit of attack. The battle became scorching.
On the other hand, Captain Jack is worthy of the protagonist, although he was made to death by the mustache and even sank a gunboat Courage, but he took advantage of the speed advantage of the Black Pearl to kill the enemy group several times, causing chaos, and the Grand Fleet immediately sailed in, achieving a shocking reversal and winning the naval battle. The mustache was left with only the flagship and the Black Pearl, and fled.
Will, on the other hand, endured huge casualties and crossed the Central Sea, at the cost of losing a fast sailing ship, but was unexpectedly compensated by the fact that the Flying Dutchman, which he commanded, drew a monster card on Monster Island in the Central Sea, which could command Davy. A giant sea monster like Jones's Octopus, take part in the battle once!
As if it were the fate of history or the prophecy of fate, the Flying Dutchman, under the command of the future captain, is even more **!
As soon as he crossed the central sea, he commanded the fleet to join the battle.
No matter how bad the wind is, it can't do a two-line attack, and what's even more terrifying is that the other party has a sea monster to help fight!
Will. Turner didn't care about any tactics, but before he used it, the sea monster appeared from behind Howling Wind, grabbed one of his ramming boats, and gradually sank to the bottom of the sea.
In an instant, Howling Wind lost a main force.
He could only retreat.
Swan and Turner were in good spirits and pursued them all the way.
But unexpectedly, Howling Wind is extremely spicy, and his gunboat has been transformed, so that he can fire with all his might backwards while sailing, and the power is equivalent to T-shaped tactics!
Not long after, one of Swan's badly damaged warships sank to the bottom of the sea amid the sound of bombardment.
But Swan and Will were in love with each other, like fighting dogs fighting on the ground, wrapped in injuries, and then relied on their absolute numerical superiority to fight and rush.
They got the idea, but the speed of the Courage was short!
No matter how strong the gunboat is, if it can't run, it won't want to get rid of their pursuit, unless Howling Wind is willing to give up his own tactical core Courage!
The situation of Xiaofeng was not good, and I suddenly remembered that there was also an unlucky rookie, still entrenched on the side unscathed.
He snapped, "If you don't make a move, their eight ships will be enough to beat you into a sieve!" ”
Du precautioned and sent a fleet. But his fleet was unfamiliar with the operation, the formation was scattered, and the front and back were disjointed, and the howling wind shook its head at the sight.
It's always good to be able to pull one, and Xiaofeng led the fleet and slowly approached Du Pre.
But unexpectedly, when his fleet was about to unite with Du Pre, Du Pre's gunboat suddenly launched a salvo!
"You!" Xiaofeng is really a thirty-year-old woman, and she is pecked in the eye by geese all day long, and she was actually calculated by Du.
Du Yu said simply: "We are a navy, of course we have to fight pirates!" ”
Xiao Feng glanced at Du Yu's second lieutenant uniform in a daze, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes: "Do you really want to do this?" You must know that it will not be you who will win in the end! ”
At this moment, the mustache has faded, Jack has suffered a lot of damage, and Howling Wind is surrounded by three navies, and his demise is imminent. Swanwell joined forces and was enough to dominate the rest of the game. Whether it is Jack or Du Pre, they will be swept out.
But Du Yu said loudly: "I am a subordinate of Brigadier General Norrington, and for the benefit of his fiancée, I will pay if I pay in." What's wrong?"
Swan smiled, and everyone in the room nodded.
Patting the boss's fiancée's fart, Du Pre's thinking is absolutely right.
