This time, the naval fleet encountered great resistance when it left the port to participate in the decisive battle, after all, the previous two naval battles had ended in a crushing defeat for the Imperial Navy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

More than half of the warships of the East China Sea Fleet, the most elite of the empire, were destroyed in these two naval battles, and the people of Egret Harbor were panicked for a while, and people were talking about it.

And the herald also quickly transmitted the battle situation here to the royal capital, but due to the long distance, it has not been transmitted in a short time.

It is completely foreseeable that once the royal capital learns that the East China Sea Fleet has suffered a fiasco of this magnitude, it will definitely be furious, and the navy will usher in turmoil!

Camp knew that if he didn't do something to turn the situation around, he, the Minister of the Navy, would not want to be a man, and it was because of this that he was able to stand out from the crowd.

It was almost an all-or-nothing gamble, and of course different from Heather before him, although he had a reason to leave the port.

But he was undoubtedly much more cautious than Heather, and the fleet was moving in a very orderly manner, and he was ready to inquire about the other fleet.

He will definitely not fight a battle that he is not sure of, as long as he successfully takes the Far East Fleet this time, and even captures the famous Duke of the Far East.

Not only did he have no fault, but he also had great achievements, standing on the deck there was a warm clear sky projecting over, the sea breeze was gentle, and the seagulls flew past and chirped.

From a distance, Kemp saw a fleet lined up in a crescent moon ahead of him, and he held his chin and frowned, thinking about what kind of medicine was being sold in the other party's gourd.

"The crescent formation is very common in naval warfare, allowing the two sides of the fleet to echo each other from afar, which is highly flexible, but also has drawbacks. ”

As the Minister of the Navy, although he has not led troops in battle for many years, he still climbed up from the navy step by step.

"The disadvantage is that the formation is too weak, and if the central battle formation is torn, then it is easy for both sides of it to fall into a lonely situation. ”

An officer took up Kemp's words, Commander Hope of the Fourth Fleet of the East China Sea Fleet, and Kemp's protégé and confidant.

"Yes, worthy of being a good student of mine, it seems that when I was in the naval school, I listened carefully, and usually this formation is deployed when the number of warships is superior, but the number of warships on the other side seems to be only one-third of ours, why do you want to do this?"

Camp complimented Hope, he had always wanted Hope to rise step by step, gradually replacing Heather's guy.

It's not his own people who occupy this critical position, he really can't rest assured that if he can successfully defeat the Far East Fleet this time.

Then the next candidate for the commander of the East China Sea Fleet is that Hope has not run away, and Hope has no worries about controlling the East China Sea Fleet.

"In the case that the number of warships is obviously weak, and there is no weather and terrain around them to take advantage of, setting up this formation is simply looking for death, teacher, that Duke of the Far East should not be a complete layman, right?

Just by looking at this formation, Hope despised the Far Eastern Fleet, after all, he was a top student who graduated from the Naval Academy.

And he himself is also a real aristocratic background, he has received elite education since he was a child, and he is very conceited when he is young and promising.

Except for Magellan, he has never taken anyone in his eyes in the entire East China Sea Fleet, and he has long regarded the post of commander of the East China Sea as his possession.

"If it's just a layman, there is no way to defeat Pato and Heather successively, you can't be careless in everything, how many heroes who have been famous for many years have suffered a lot from the little people because of their momentary negligence, and Lin Ye, the Duke of the Far East, is not a small person. ”

Camp reminded his proud student that the distance between the two fleets was getting closer, and he ordered to slow down.

"What the teacher taught us is, what should we do now? Is it just to confront them from a distance, and I can't hold my breath before anyone?"

Hope's remark was a bit emotional, and he reacted with a burst of ecstasy when he learned of the defeat of Pato and Heather.

In plain life, he looked down on Heather, so he hoped that he would make a mistake and fall, and then he would find a way to bring down Magellan and rise to power.

But under normal circumstances, these two points are basically unlikely, and according to his estimates, it will take at least five to ten years.

But now, with the crushing defeat of Heather in these two naval battles, and Magellan suddenly rebelled, this is tantamount to joy falling from heaven.

Hope naturally became the favorite to take over as commander of the East China Sea Fleet, and happiness came so suddenly that he seemed to be the commander of the East China Sea.

"No, first send twenty warships to test the ** hand, the main fleet will wait and see, and scatter the two wings ready to meet at any time. ”

Camp pondered for a moment, and immediately worked out tactics, in such an open sea, he was not afraid of any tricks played by the Far Eastern Fleet.

"Teacher, are you a little too careful, or let me send the Fourth Fleet to fight them, I will definitely be able to beat them up, and if the Duke of the Empire's wanted criminal is really in the fleet, the students will definitely capture him alive. ”

Hope snorted coldly, the previous fiasco was just because those two people were incompetent, and how could he Hope be incompetent?

"The more critical the time, the more you can't be in a hurry, you are my proud student, the candidate who will take my place one day, must not be reckless, send the Sixth Fleet to a tentative attack, you should know my intention in sending them, right? ”

Camp gave the order to send twenty ships of the Sixth Fleet to fight, and Hope was frowning at first, but after hearing about the Sixth Fleet, he understood.

"The students know, everything is under the orders of the teacher, the Sixth Fleet controlled by the Heather remnants? ”

Hope looked at the fleet on the right side that had received the order and began to move slowly, and smiled grimly, Kemp This is a typical borrowed knife killing.

Paving the way for him to take over the East China Sea Fleet, he can't live up to the trust of his teacher.

Once this naval battle was won, he would no longer be the commander of the Fourth Fleet, but the commander of the East China Sea Fleet of the Imperial Navy.

Although after these naval battles, the strength of the East China Sea Fleet will inevitably suffer serious losses, and its strength on paper will be inferior to that of other fleets.

But with Kemp, the Minister of the Navy, supporting them in the royal capital, the next military budget is not a steady stream of support for the East China Sea Fleet.

He is fully confident that it will not take a few years to restore the East China Sea Fleet, and even improve its firepower configuration.

On the deck of the flagship of the Sixth Fleet in the distance, Commander Barand was furious.

"Kemp and Hope, are they deliberately sending us to death? It's come to this juncture, and they're still calculating their interests, it's really hateful, hmph, do you think we're going to die? ”

"Avenge Lord Heather!"

Barand shouted, and the twenty warships of the Sixth Fleet rushed towards the Far Eastern Fleet!
