Chapter Seventy-One: The Newly Born War Scorpion Pirate Regiment
Not to mention the people on the garlic side, even the officers who leaned towards Raymond's side felt a little chill in their vests, the reason why they dared to provoke again and again before was nothing more than because these people were either rich or noble, they instinctively thought that Sojes was at most fighting with them, but they didn't dare to kill.
But now, Dilion's tragic situation has made them suddenly realize their identity: although they are nobles, the Brustein family has more power, and most importantly, the target of their provocation also has the ability to easily kill them.
The word death often has a special meaning at a certain time, such as now, even these people are as well-behaved as rabbits, and they no longer dare to make mockery, as for the dead Dilion, please, in the army, it is already a sin to dare to provoke his superiors, not to mention that he has brought up the topic that the Brustein family is the least willing to hear.
Therefore, even if the Cumberland Patriarch is the right minister, it is still Dilian's fault to report the matter to the king, and the result of the verdict is that he is innocent of death, nothing more.
With this episode, the voices in the navy mocking the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment also disappeared, and Dilion had to act as an example to the chickens and monkeys, and the rest of the people would naturally be obedient to the group of warned monkeys.
At night, Raymond came to the courtyard where Sojers and the others lived, and found that the lights in the house were still on, so he walked into the room in curiosity and saw that his younger brother was playing chess with his little girlfriend there, and Will and Cervantes were watching the game.
Originally, Sorjes's chess strength was much better than that of Genevia, but today I don't know what happened, he has already played two games, and each time he lost with an extreme disadvantage.
"Blue, don't go down, your mentality is not right today. Feeling that the mood in Sojes's heart was a little unstable, Genevia put down the pieces in the middle of the third game, and Sojes didn't have any objections, just nodded and sighed.
Walking over to his brother's side and sitting down, Raymond patted the top of Sojers' head and said softly, "You don't seem to be in a good mood because of the day's events?"
The other three were stunned by this sentence, and then they did not bother the brothers, and turned to leave the room.
The two brothers sat in the room without saying a word for a long time, and in the end, it was Raymond who broke the silence first and said: "Jack, you also know that your mother and eldest sister are no longer there, and your father is often not at home, and now, you have come out to be a pirate again, and this Brustein family can no longer see what home looks like......"
Although these words seem to be talking about the current situation of the Brustein family, Sojes knows very well that this is just the eldest brother trying to persuade himself to go home in another way, in fact, thinking of his mother and eldest sister who have been dead for many years, plus the eldest brother who has been caught in the middle in order to alleviate the conflict between himself and his father Bagas over the years, it is indeed very hard for the eldest brother to be caught in the middle.
Looking at his younger brother who didn't say a word, Raymond knew that this trip could not have a better effect, so he sighed again and asked his brother to get up and leave after resting early, but after leaving, he didn't know that Sojes actually wanted to promise his eldest brother to go back to the Brustein family at that moment.
Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and a total of twenty-six ships were already in formation at the border of the two seas, and in a short time, Fiana's fleet also appeared on the horizon, but their fleet seemed to be even larger than that of the French Empire.
Although the two countries claimed that this battle was just an actual combat exercise, the rest of the countries were not fools, and the hatred between Fiana and Fran had long been to the extent that they wanted to strangle each other to death, but what they cared about was not who won or who lost, in their opinion, this kind of battle with only 20 ships on one side was not a loss even if it lost, but could eliminate some waste.
What they can care about is only the strength of Raymond and Derek, the two heroes in the navy, and even the other five empires want to know which of these two new generations of talents is better, and at the same time, they also want to learn the information of these two people in this battle, which can be regarded as a preparation for the future.
Unlike the Franco-Empire, the Volcanic Lava piloted by Derek was at the back of the array, led by a never-before-seen magic ship, but the flag hoisted on the ship still revealed their identity.
With a black background and a red scorpion pattern, this is the ship of the War Scorpion Pirate Regiment, and this ship is obviously not the Sidewinder that was piloted before.
"It seems that this is the B-class magic ship that Colonel Raymond said, even if you don't know the skills of this ship, just looking at the shape, it must be a fast ship. Will's expression was a little solemn, and so was Cervantes's expression, the length of this ship was not large, even much smaller than that of battleships, but I don't know what kind of material the hull was made of, it obviously looked a little small in the fleet, but the draft was much larger than the rest of the ships.
The most terrible thing is that there are two thrusters hanging behind this ship, under normal circumstances, ships below 20,000 tons will only have one thruster at most, otherwise it will affect the balance of the hull, and this B-class magic ship can actually hang two, which also shows that it is outstanding in terms of speed and stability.
Nodding, Sojes's eyes bloomed with a cold light, and he said coldly: "It is indeed a strong enemy, but since all the performance is used to increase speed, the defense and firepower of this ship will not be very strong, it seems that it was specially to restrain our Xianglong to show up." ”
As soon as the words fell, Raymond's attack order had already been issued, and the twenty-two ships except for the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment had already reacted almost at the same moment, and it could also be seen from here that ordinary pirates were indeed more than a step worse than well-trained navies.
Unlike the battle in the novel, the fleet of the French Empire had already launched an offensive at the moment when the enemy first appeared, and the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment also avoided the fire point of the two armies, and the bow cannon blasted at the phalanx of the War Scorpion Pirate Regiment, but to everyone's shock, Nathan's flagship was not evading the bombardment with super-fast speed as they imagined.
The magic ship piloted by this guy actually caused the ship to sink in an instant, so that the deck was completely level with the sea, and at this moment, the bow cannon of the Xianglong had been charged, and the powerful shock cannon actually made the naval battleship behind Nathan be pierced with a single blow!
Just like the scene when the fire-walking blue-scaled beast was killed, the unfortunate naval battleship was completely pierced from the bow to the stern, and there was no gunsmoke even visible in the pierced parts.
This is the shelling of the Xianglong, different from ordinary ship guns, the bow cannon of the Xianglong relies on the impact force generated after the instantaneous release of energy to kill, rather than relying on the explosion to destroy like ordinary cannonballs.
