Five hundred nautical miles from the southern coastline there is a dense archipelago, which, although large in size, is too small for human beings to exploit. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, it is a pirate's paradise, and at least ten years ago, it was a pirate's paradise.

Since Colonel Demps became commander of the navy in Seka City, he has led the navy in five attacks on the archipelago, finally driving out the pirates who are more notorious than the Brotherhood, and restoring order to the seas.

Originally, this forgotten archipelago had no name, but after Colonel Demps drove the pirates away, he called the islands the Camila Islands in honor of his deceased love.

The name 'Camila Islands', spread by the sailors of Seca City during the past decade, has become so familiar to most people along the southern coast that even the official maps refer to this archipelago as the Camila Islands.

Colonel Demps believed that if the orcs had goblins as guides, then the most likely place for the 50,000 expeditionary army to stop in the early stage was this archipelago.

With the military strength of the goblins at sea, as long as they have a foothold in this sea, Colonel Demps dares to assert that in a short time, they will be the overlord of this sea.

It was already a foregone conclusion, and Colonel Demps did not think that he was capable of stopping the fifty thousand orc soldiers led by the goblin fleet.

However, it is not a problem to cause a little trouble for those orc expeditionary forces here.

Now, there was not much time left for the colonel, and he had to arrange it at once.

The fleet was placed on both flanks of the archipelago by Colonel Demps, and at the same time, he sent a large number of clippers to the northeast of nearly two hundred nautical miles to conduct carpet reconnaissance in a fan-like manner to ensure the success of the operation.

In the early morning of April 15th, just after dawn, Colonel Demps was inspecting the maintenance of the fleet's bed crossbows, when an observer of the fleet suddenly reported to Demps: "Colonel, the first fleet in front has issued a flag, saying that the enemy fleet of single sailing boats has been found, the number of fifty, fully loaded!"

Colonel Demps's face changed slightly, and he climbed the watchtower as fast as he could, and took out the lookout goggles he had with him to look into the distance.

When the colonel really saw those green-skinned orcs, he realized that the war had really come, and he felt his breathing involuntarily speed up, and he wiped the cold sweat from his palms without a trace.

This is the most normal reaction, after all, the war in the past was just a mouthful, and now he intuitively feels the arrival of the war, and it is inevitable that he will be a little nervous and afraid.

But this hint of nervousness and fear flashed away.

Colonel Demps found that the warship that appeared in his field of vision was not fifty searches, but a fleet of twenty single-sail clippers, and seeing this situation, the colonel couldn't help but think in his heart: Could it be that the report of the first fleet was wrong?

The twenty warships full of orc warriors on the opposite side did not realize that they had entered the encirclement, and continued to penetrate deep into the heart of the archipelago.

This was an opportunity, Colonel Demps thought to himself.

There was very little time left for the Colonel to consider, and the twenty orc ships could find themselves in their own situation at any moment.

"Quick, send a flag to the First Fleet, let them sail northwest as soon as possible, and be sure to wipe out that orc fleet!" Colonel Demps didn't have time to approve the information.

The man who had just reported encountering the orc ships was Lieutenant Commander Kelly, a civilian-promoted naval officer and commander of the First Fleet, who had already spotted the Orc fleet ahead of them when he received orders from Colonel Demps.

Lieutenant Colonel Kelly was puzzled by Colonel Demps's order, and he did not understand why he wanted to sail northwest instead of facing the enemy fleet to the southeast, and besides, the orc fleet seemed to have come around from another sea.

Although, Lieutenant Commander Kelly thought that in the face of this encounter he should meet the enemy at once, and hold back the enemy convoy, while at the same time informing the second flotilla fifty nautical miles away to make a detour to encircle them.

However, Kelly did not express his opinion, he faithfully carried out the colonel's orders, and did not ask why, the lieutenant colonel only thought that his superiors had better plans than him.

This is a good subordinate!

However, what he didn't know was that his current behavior would make the navy of Seka City almost surrounded in reverse.

In the waters off the Camila Islands, three fleets sailed as fast as they could, each in what they thought was right, and the sailors were making the final preparations for the battle all this time.

In the words of Colonel Demps, it is best to spend the time before the battle writing a serious letter to the family and saying what you don't usually want to say.

Half an hour later, Colonel Demps, who was also rushing to the battlefield, suddenly received a report from the lookout: there was a fleet of orcs and orcs in the southeast, and the number happened to be fifty searches reported by Lieutenant Colonel Kelly just now.

When he took out his lookout glasses himself, the first fleet had already encountered the one he had just discovered, and Demps's face became ugly: "Damn Kelly, this idiot!"

Colonel Demps reacted instantly, he and Lieutenant Colonel Kelly had discovered a distinctly different fleet, and they had made a serious mistake, that is, they had not yet recovered from the previous battle against pirates.

In their previous naval battles, the pirates were already very powerful enough to have fifty search ships, and they didn't think that the fleet they found would not be the same fleet, which was a fatal mistake.

When Kelly spotted the twenty orc fleets to the northwest, he knew how stupid his decision was, but he didn't have much time to think about it now.

The lieutenant colonel looked in the direction of the fleet where Demps was, and he tried to calm himself down.

"Order to rush the ship, storm the fleet ahead, and tear a hole out at all costs!" Kelly yelled at his herald as if he were mad, his expression was crazy, but the order he gave was sensible.

After receiving the order, the captains of the ten rushing ships immediately ordered the sailors on board to move, and the sails of the ships became bigger and bigger under the control of the sailors, and the ten captains personally took the helm, and formed a separate vanguard rushing team as quickly as possible according to the tactics that had been rehearsed countless times.

"Ballista ready!" the captains' roars resounded through the sky with the sea breeze.

When the members of the ballista squad who rushed to the ship heard their captain's order, they immediately took action, their faces were flushed, their arm muscles swelled, and they were desperately pulling the bed crossbow strings, these were veterans of a hundred battles, except for a little nervousness when they first met the orcs, their performance was quite qualified.

Now, when the battle actually began, the only trace of tension was gone.

"Enemy troops go into the range of ballistas!"

The observer leans over the overhead lookout, loudly alerting the ballista team below, as well as reminding the ship's sailors to be wary of their opponent's long-range strikes.

The crossbow arrows of the orc clipper fleet had apparently been prepared early in the morning.

When the ten ships of the stormtrooping squad had just entered the range of the crossbow arrows, the sailors could immediately hear the sound of crossbow strings fluctuating through the sky, which was so obvious that it could even overpower the impact of the waves!

All the sailors of the Vanguard Squad were shocked in their hearts, they had extremely rich experience in naval warfare, and they understood that with their current sailing speed, under such great inertia, the crossbow bolts could exert their maximum power, and if they hit the weakest position on the side directly, they could even cause the warship to suffer heavy damage and sink.
