Chapter 644: Battle at Sea (1)
"Herald, order the First Fleet to meet the enemy, and tell Cunningham that he can choose how he fights, and that he has time to open fire, but one thing is absolutely to keep these monsters in front of him. "Generalissimo Modo issued the first order after receiving the enemy.
A hundred meters above his head, a strong hippopotamus herald stood directly on the back of a giant dragon, and as soon as the voice of the little dwarf Grand Marshal Modo fell, the herald immediately waved two huge flags and conveyed his orders in the language of the flags.
Compared with the heralds on other warships, Generalissimo Modo's heralds are particularly domineering, and of course, the effect of waving flags can also make other warships see more clearly.
A minute later, the First Fleet, which was already at the forefront of the fleet, was led by a giant battleship and broke away from the main formation and headed towards the giant sea monster group in front.
At the moment when the Invincible Fleet was established, Generalissimo Modo also roughly organized the entire fleet and divided it into the main fleet and six squadrons; such a simple organization immediately increased the command efficiency on the battlefield by more than ten times.
Otherwise, with the number of thousands of warships, belonging to dozens of countries, and hundreds of different formations, if we really want to fight, effective command alone will be a huge problem.
The so-called first squadron is composed of one squadron of the Jose Empire, two royal fleets of the Roland Empire, and several fleets of the member countries of the God of War Alliance;
Combined, the First Squadron has the strength of more than 400 warships, including a powerful giant battleship, which serves as the flagship of the squadron.
No matter where such a detachment pulls, it can be regarded as a powerful sea force, but it seems to be a little weaker than the many giant sea monsters they are about to face.
Shaxx, the former down-and-out pirate and now the commander of the Iron Collar Navy, whispered in Modo's ear: "Master Modo, do you want to send some air troops to provide them with a little support, otherwise it may be a little difficult for the First Squadron to complete your order." ”
"What's the hurry, don't you see that this is just a feint attack by the deep-sea monsters, otherwise they have a hole in their heads, so they will charge directly on the sea, instead of choosing to rush out from the bottom of the sea; Mo Duohao did not hesitate to reject Shaxx's proposal.
After hearing this, Shaxx closed his mouth tightly, blushing a little for his performance just now, this should be regarded as the first time in his most of his life to fight a strange deep-sea monster, he will always unconsciously think of his opponent as a conventional human navy in the past.
That's why he made this low-level mistake, and at the same time he began to look forward to the performance of the First Fleet......
Soon, the distance between the First Detachment and the giant sea monsters was only one mile, and this was also the effective killing distance of the ballistas and trebuchets that entered the battleship.
Without the slightest hesitation, their commander, General Cunningham, directly gave the order to open fire, and immediately a dense group of boulders and ballistas struck at the giant sea monsters.
It is worth mentioning that only half of the first squadron was occupied by the Jose Imperial squadron, and the density of attacks released by them at this time accounted for more than seventy percent of the entire squadron.
And that terrifying giant battleship turned into a terrifying firepower hedgehog in an instant, and the madmen of the Jose Empire invested more than they imagined in these treasures of the town.
On this giant battleship, there are hundreds of heavy ballistae alone, and there are also twenty magic ballistae that are deadly expensive, and this giant battleship alone has the same attack power as a fleet of the Roland Empire.
Dense ballistas and boulders smashed into the formation of the giant sea monsters, and the ballistas of sea bowls and meters long ignored the tough skin of the sea monsters, and directly cut hideous wounds on their bodies.
The first batch of covering attacks of the First Squadron had an unexpectedly good effect, even if the giant sea monster had a strong vitality, even if it was hit by a dozen ballistas, it would not necessarily be killed on the spot.
However, these sea monsters, who were howling terribly, had lost the ability to continue fighting.
Even, there were two Naga sitting on the giant tiger shark, who held up their shields in time before the ballista was ready, but the ballista with the armor-piercing cannon head easily broke their shield, and the rest of the force smashed their bodies to pieces by the way......
The unexpected results made the corners of the mouths of everyone watching the battle unconsciously show a smile, if these deep-sea monsters have this ability, then this sea battle will not seem to be as difficult as imagined.
But it was also at this time that the little dwarf Modo's abrupt order suddenly resounded throughout the sea area: "Pay attention, a large number of unknown creatures have been found on the bottom of the sea, and depth charges will be dropped immediately on the surface of the sea." ”
Almost as soon as the little dwarf Modo's words fell, hundreds of ships suddenly shook violently because of the huge impact force coming from the bottom of the boat.
Among them, more than a dozen small warships were shocked out of the water by the force of the impact, jumped up to a height of about 10 meters, and then smashed heavily on the water, directly broke into two pieces, and sank neatly to the bottom of the sea.
The sailors on the ship did not have time to react at all, and quickly sank along with the broken ship.
In fact, even if they jumped out of the ship in time, nothing good would have come of their waiting, because at this time, countless sea monsters and fishmen suddenly appeared from under the surface of the sea.
The dense number of ships covered the sea between the ships, and the fate of those who unfortunately left the shelter of the ships in the water can be imagined.
Just when the human sailors were caught off guard by the sudden attack, the faces of those orcs were also full of panic, but the only difference was that even at such a time, they still remembered to firmly carry out Master Modo's orders.
They lifted the large wooden box, which had been strictly guarded, picked up a so-called depth charge, pulled out the safe, and then threw the bottom of the bomb with all their might, after slamming it on the edge of the ship.
More than ten pounds of steel lumps, after flying in the air for a few seconds, drew a beautiful arc and fell into the sea; then because of its own weight, it quickly sank downward, when it sank to a depth of more than ten meters, more than three catties of picric acid inside, and finally under the effect of the initiating medicine, was completely detonated.
The little dwarf Modo's previous life, a fierce modern explosive, finally revealed its hideous minions in this plane......
