Chapter 551: Shock! Actions from the Long Yuan Kingdom
A minute after Sogers intercepted the fleeing ship, Freya pierced her spear through the heart of the short major general, and then shattered it with her fighting spirit??? .ranen`com
After solving the battle, Freya did not rush to kill the enemy, first observed the battle situation, and finally attacked an area that was not attacked by her own side.
If you treat the battle as a mathematical problem, sometimes it will be complicated, but sometimes it will also make it simpler, just like this fleet, although a hundred ships are a huge group, twenty have been removed at the beginning, and the remaining eighty or so ships are divided into five equal parts, each of which is only sixteen or seventeen ships, compared to the huge number that made people's scalps tingle before, such an opponent is obviously not a threat, at least the four people present can defeat these sixteen or seventeen ships with their own strength。
In fact, this battle was already a foregone conclusion at the moment when Sorges slashed the ship's sword, Alonso's fleet could not cause damage to the two magic warships, and could not attack the four strong men, the advantage of the fleet could not be brought into play at all, and the death of the two major generals also completely made the professionals completely suppressed by the Dragon Tooth Pirate Regiment.
The advantage of the fleet cannot be brought into play, and the four professionals who can take off can be evacuated directly even if they can't fight, but Alonso's navy cannot, in this case, the numerical advantage cannot be brought into play, not to mention that there is also a Sojeth who can control people's actions with the domain here, and a Genevia who can easily stun thousands of people with mental shock!
However, it is not these four people who really make the gap between the numbers of the two sides smaller and smaller, but the ghost ship controlled by Genevia, the dark force field of the ghost ship is always on the state, whenever someone dies nearby, its corpse will be immediately transformed into a zombie, and in this kind of battle with a huge disparity in strength, the number of people who die every second is more than ten, it can be said that the two sides can narrow the gap in numbers by twenty just a second, so it is almost the same way of playing, unless several high-level leaders of the Dragon Tooth Pirate Group are directly beheaded, if it can't be done, then it is really difficult to win。
Even if Sojes and his party are all strong, but if they want to completely defeat a fleet of this size, they still spent a lot of time, and later, these four people also felt a little tired, this exhaustion is not on the **, but on the spiritual level, therefore, after determining that the opponent has not been able to roll over the waves, the four people all returned to the ship to rest, relying only on the two magic battleships and those transformed zombies to kill the enemy, it is worth mentioning that now with those mermaid zombies, the total number of zombies has exceeded seven thousand!
Mermaid zombies can move freely from the sea, even if they can't control the sea water like they did in life, their advantage in naval battles is still huge, even if they can't climb on the ship, but under the control of the Sojeth domain, these are not difficult things, just let them exchange positions with the navy on the target ship, and often before the navy that was replaced into the water reacted, they were all bitten alive by these mermaid zombies.
In the end, after about two hours, there were only two magic warships left on the originally dense sea, and the rest, including the two S-class magic ships, had sunk to the bottom of the sea, but this was obviously a big victory, but no one in Sojers showed a happy expression, but it looked a little heavy.
For the current performance of these three people, Freya expressed her understanding, although they have experienced a lot of killing, but they have not experienced real war, and now facing this level of death, even if they have been pirates for more than ten years, it is impossible to accept it immediately, after all, they are not the kind of cold-blooded creatures who take pleasure in killing.
"Why, haven't you wanted to open a little yet?"
In the dining room, Freya looked at Sogers and Genevia, who were sitting at the table, and the food in front of them didn't move.
"Well, although there are always people who say that human life is at stake and human life is priceless, but when it comes to the battlefield, human life is the cheapest consumable. Sorjes sighed, he thought he was used to killing, but when hundreds, thousands, thousands of people died in front of him, or died because of himself, all those perceptions he had had were refreshed.
"Therefore, no one in the major empires is willing to start a large-scale war unless it is a situation of last resort. Freya sighed, there was something she didn't tell Sorges, in fact, this level of battle is not a big country like Alonso and Colt, not to mention a broken muscle, not even a skin injury, the reason why she did it at this time is nothing more than to fight to feed the war, in fact, no one has the naïve idea of completely defeating the opponent with one or two battles.
"It suddenly felt like I had made a very wise choice to leave the Brostein family and become a pirate. "Sojes was a little self-deprecating, before following Shiva to learn the arts, the total number of killings he had killed over the years was far less than today's war, this battle, not only made him appreciate the importance of a strong man in war, but also finally understood why many navies were already a little indifferent in the face of battle, and also understood why a girl like Freya, who was obviously very kind in nature, could maintain a normal state of mind in such a killing.
The reason for this is simple, but in the final analysis, it is two words of numbness!
Yes, the perennial war has made them numb, whether it is death or human life, sometimes it is really just a number, the so-called human life is priceless, human life is at stake, it is indeed the case in peacetime, but if it is in war years, human life is really like a straw.
"This is just to win the outpost battle, and then we have to meet with their main fleet......" As she spoke, Genevia held the cup with both hands, her face was a little hesitant, if she said that before the battle, she was the same as Sojas, she thought that this exchange of fire with Alonso's main fleet was not difficult, but now, obviously she had not yet fought, she was already afraid before the battle.
It's not that Genevia thinks the difference in strength is too great, but that she herself has instinctively developed a fear of war.
"That's what I'm going to tell you this time. Freya's face turned straight and she said to them: "I just received the latest order from the commander, she ordered us to withdraw to the Colt Empire immediately, and if you can, I hope you will also return to the imperial capital!"
"Retreat?"
Sojers was really surprised this time, obviously he had just won a victory, his own morale was high except for a few of his own, and the morale of his opponent was low, it was a good time to attack in a big way, why didn't he advance and retreat?
"Yes, I don't know if you've heard of Luo Tong of the Dragon Yuan Kingdom?" Freya nodded at first, and then inexplicably mentioned the name.
"You mean, that Dragon Yuan Kingdom Hero, nicknamed the Death Messenger, Luo Tong?" Sojes frowned, as a member of the Brustein family, of course he had heard of Luo Tong, and he had heard of his rumors, and it was precisely because he knew something about it that he somewhat understood why the Colt Empire suddenly chose to withdraw its troops at this time.
"Blue, what's going on?" Genevia clearly couldn't figure out what connection there was between the two, and Sojeth didn't hide it, telling everything he had heard.
Luo Tong: The hero of the Longyuan Kingdom, one of the most low-key and mysterious Seven Heroes of the Navy, no one knows how strong he is, because he has been so low-key that he almost never shows his strength in the world.
However, the reason why he is mysterious is actually very related to his low-key, it stands to reason that if a person is low-key to this extent, then he must be infamous, but Luo Tong is not, firstly, no one builds momentum for him, and secondly, he himself does not seem to pay attention to these, but his reputation in the Seven Empires is not low, which is a strange thing that people can't figure out.
Also, that is, about the origin of his nickname, since Luo Tong became famous, he has appeared in the rest of the empire twice, and after each appearance, there will always be some major events in the world, and there are no exceptions in the slightest, so some people who don't know the truth will also jokingly call him the Messenger of Death, and even some people who are not angry with him for being so low-key but can have a great reputation, simply gave him a nickname that is the same as Will at the beginning, that is, the plague god.
"Luo Tong has arrived, could it be because of the problem of the native species?"
Sojes understands that if it weren't for a major event, Luo Tong would never have gone to other countries, and now that this juncture has appeared, it should have something to do with the native species.
Mother didn't say it, because Luo Tong was now on his way to the imperial capital, and even she didn't know what it was. Freya was also a little worried, about the news of Luo Tong, she actually knew more than Sojes, usually Luo Tong would not notify the destination country on the way, but this time it was notified in advance, it seems that the seriousness of the matter is far more serious than his previous two missions.
"Whew...... Then withdraw the troops!"
Sojes rubbed his forehead, the withdrawal of troops should have been a good thing for them now, but if this so-called good thing was based on Luo Tong's appearance, it made him feel even heavier in his heart.
"Damn, it's really the right time for him to come, if I can choose, I'd rather fight to the death with the Alonso Empire than I want him to come to the door at this time!" "Sojes was a little depressed, if the problem could be solved by fighting, then it would not be a big problem for him, but what he was most afraid of was this kind of trouble that he couldn't see the ins and outs, because no matter how much you guessed, you couldn't guess what it was all about.
"Me too!" Freya also showed a bitter smile, but fortunately, at least Luo Tong will not go to only one empire every time he goes on an envoy, if he is not mistaken, his next target is the Alonso Empire, with the Longyuan Kingdom to come forward, at least for a long time, the two empires of Colt and Alonso will not be able to fight.
As soon as the order to withdraw the troops was issued, more than 90% of the people did not understand what it meant, and they cursed angrily in private, saying something like cheapening the Alonso Empire, but they did not dare to say half a bad word about Sti's order.
Sojes and Freya both received orders, so of course Will and the others, who were still in the main fleet, knew about it, unlike those ignorant ordinary soldiers, among these people, even Fett knew that this was anything but unusual, but they didn't show anything, but in private, these people found an opportunity to contact Sojes.
"Jack, have you received the withdrawal order here?"
"Ah, Freya already told me. ”
"What the hell is going on, haven't you already destroyed that vanguard fleet?"
"Well, it is said that Luo Tong of Longyuan Kingdom is coming, about Luo Tong, I will talk about it after I go back, remember, no matter what you guess, you must not let those little cubs hear it. ”
“...... Is it that serious?"
"Much more serious than that!"
“...... Understood!"
This conversation went on very quickly, and perhaps even Will had never seen such a cautious time as Sogers, and for a moment even if he didn't know anything, he still felt a chill in his heart.
Sailing at the front when they set off, and becoming the end when they returned, the two magic warships in order not to collide with the fleet of the Alonso Empire directly dived and evacuated at full speed, obviously the last one, but in the end it was the first to dock in the Corte Imperial Capital.
"Do you want to go back with me?"
After landing, Freya sent an invitation to the three of them, and although her eyes kept on Genevia, everyone knew that if she could, she really only wanted to invite Sojes alone.
"No, I don't want to go through what happened in Magnolia Harbor again, the people of the Colt Empire are so welcoming, let's just stay here and wait for Will and them to come back." Sojes politely declined Freya's invitation, and the latter was somewhat disappointed, but reluctantly accepted.
These days, except for the occasional sunbath, these people have almost always stayed in the Black Gold, and as for the food problem, they don't need to worry too much, just find a small merchant on the shore and buy some to cope with these days.
The group of three waited in the port of the imperial capital for two days, and the four magic ships led by Will finally arrived late, and as soon as they docked, several people first hugged each other, and then immediately gathered in the command cabin and began to analyze the reason for Luo Tong's arrival this time.
Although there were not many people who participated in this analysis, in the end of the analysis, there were two different opinions, one was that like Sojers, Rotong believed that Rotong's trip was for the native species, and the other was not led by Will, but another point of view led by Jessica, which was a bit special.
"The Longyuan Kingdom is different from the other six empires, they have the largest army and the least navy among the seven empires, there is a big problem here, otherwise, why can such a small number of navies not be attacked by other empires? And what are they for, they would rather develop an army than a navy, and even refuse to have a merchant group from the outside world visit?"
