Section 603 West Asia's counterattack

The title of the Seventh Princess can have the title of Valkyrie, which she has exchanged for countless victories, and it is obvious that she is definitely not a stupid and arrogant person who can achieve such brilliant results. So when she received the challenge from West Asia, she was fully prepared, although she only took the ten warships to set off, but in fact, she arranged a lot of reinforcements behind her to support her.

It's just that she never thought that Sia would trap her in a frozen way. In fact, when she was frozen, she could have ordered the ship to be abandoned, and then stepped on the thirty ironclad warships that supported her, and once she left, it was impossible for the troops of West Asia to stop them in time. However, the arrogant Seventh Princess was unwilling to run away like this no matter what, so she staged such a wonderful and fierce battle.

At this time, she finally relied on her indomitable fighting spirit, for the first time on the battlefield to achieve the absolute initiative, thirty-seven ironclad battleships under the command of the seven princesses, like a dexterous viper, taking advantage of the loose vanguard formation in West Asia, when there was no chance to be adjusted, in the local battlefield to form a numerical advantage, and then on the ironclad battleships of the sophistication, so that the seven princesses bit them a few bites.

By the time the Holy See's vanguard fleet could reorganize into a barrel-like defensive formation, dozens of more ships had been sunk. On the other hand, the Seventh Princess only seriously damaged three ships, but none of them sank. However, after the completion of their iron bucket array, the Seven Princesses did not dare to fight with others easily.

After all, there are still about 400 new warships on the other side, but the seventh princess has less than forty after that, once a confrontation is formed, it will be very disadvantageous to the side with fewer people. Ironclad battleships aren't really invincible either. Just now, the three battleships of the Seven Princesses Land were broken by the dying counterattack of the magic wall, and dozens of skeleton mages were knocked to the ground by various spells on the spot.

Thanks to their iron wrappings, they themselves are soaked in molten steel. That's why there are not a few deaths, if it is an ordinary mage, there will definitely be no left of these dozens of people, and they are guaranteed to die cleanly. Moreover, the hull of the ironclad battleship was also damaged to varying degrees, but fortunately, its skin was thick, the important parts were fine, and the elven mage hiding in the innermost part was not damaged, and still maintained more than half of its combat effectiveness.

However, this situation sounded a wake-up call for the Seventh Princess, obviously the opponent has been able to create a serious threat to herself, and she is no longer the weak person who recognized people and slaughtered them before. Coupled with the absolute advantage in the number of opponents, if you win, I am afraid that the victory or defeat is really unpredictable. Moreover, even if it wins, it will be a miserable victory, and it will definitely lose a lot.

The seventh princess is not willing to fight against others, so she will fall into the arms of the Holy See, and fighting is the specialty of the Holy See. So she ordered the fleet to retreat. Maintain the same speed with the Holy See Vanguard Fleet, and make the illusion that the original seven warships of the Seven Princesses are seriously damaged and unpleasant to lure the Holy See fleet to attack.

After seeing this, Sia saw this. After a little thought, he immediately ordered: "Order the vanguard fleet and chase it for me." Be sure to catch the Seven Princesses!"

"Your Excellency, this is not afraid of being ambushed by the Seventh Princess again!" Somira persuaded: "Let's withdraw! Anyway, now that our results can be explained to the Pope, there is no need to take any more risks!"

"I know you feel sorry for the mages on those battleships, but in fact, why don't I feel sorry?" Xia smiled bitterly: "But at this point, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope." We're all going to keep going. Even if we can't catch the Seventh Princess, we have to consume as many ironclad battleships as possible with her, and now that she has lost one more, we will be able to make it much easier in the future!"

"But what about my subordinates?" Somyra complained: "A holy war, a Japanese-German blue sea battle, a total of 5,000 of my subordinates, this is half of the entire magic guide corps?

"No, don't worry. Xia smiled with confidence: "If the Seventh Princess had the determination to fight with me, she would have fought a long time ago, she is faster than us, and we can't hide even if we want to." ”

"Then she's just going to run away?" said Somira suspiciously, "The Seventh Princess also has a time to run away?"

"She's luring my fleet to attack, and when our most advanced ships are farther away from our own team, hehe, she'll rely on her speed advantage to shake off her pursuers, and then attack our ships that don't pose a threat to her. Xia smiled: "So, we just need to wait for her here! ”

Sure enough, West Asia's guess was completely correct, and after teasing the vanguard of the Holy See for a while, the Seventh Princess suddenly accelerated to shake them off, and then made a big bend to Rao, dragging back to the main fleet of West Asia. The Seventh Princess sneered in the command room: "All the mages are on those battleships that I threw away, I want to see if they still have the ability to freeze me again!"

"Then let's rush in and kill him, right?" Uncle Zu's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Thirty-seven ironclad battleships, if you crash into them all the way like this, haha, a single piercing can kill hundreds of his warships!"

"This can't be done!" The Seventh Princess smiled bitterly: "Their battleship with large magnetic iron plates has not been completely consumed, at least more than fifty percent remains, if it hits them, it will be unlucky!"

So this time we have to circle around them from the periphery, and then take advantage of our fierce and distant firepower to eat them up little by little!"

Soon the two sides came into contact. At this time, the main fleet of West Asia was like a big pie, and the seventh princess turned her fleet into a long snake formation, and then commanded the snake to circle around the outside of the big pie, pouring ferocious fire on the ordinary warships that were powerless to fight back.

As the thousands of magic bullets flying from the Seven Princesses fleet smashed over, the outer warships of the Holy See were unlucky, and the roaring explosions rang out. After the fleet sailed, there were only countless corpses and broken planks of the Holy See Navy left on the sea, which was really desolate.

However, the good days of the Seventh Princess soon came to an end, and she circled the Holy See's fleet less than a quarter of a circle. I felt that my battleship was slowing down. She hurriedly ordered a thorough investigation, only to find out that countless toad warriors suddenly appeared under the water.

They were taping the big magnetic iron plate to the Seven Princesses' battleship underneath. Apparently this was the so-called Earth Water Ghost Plan of Sia, and he ordered about 200,000 toad warriors to hide in the depths of the sea in advance. If the Seven Princesses can be defeated by ice sheet tactics, then they can be used as a reserve to block the possible reinforcements of the Seven Princesses.

However, if the ice sheet tactic doesn't work, they can also use another tactic to do a very effective delay work on the Seven Princesses' ironclad battleships, such as the iron plate tactic they use now. Long before the fleet of the Seven Princesses arrived, Sia ordered them to prepare.

The so-called "preparation" actually refers to throwing all the magnetic iron plates and some specially made cables carried on the battleship into the sea to arm the toad warriors. At the beginning, there were a large number of customized subway boards in West Asia, and the warships equipped with iron plates could surround the periphery of the entire Holy See fleet.

When the ice sheet worked, they used part of the subway board to create bunkers. However, most of the iron plates did not have the opportunity to be used. This is because the distance between the warships is too far, dozens of miles at every turn, and it takes more than half a day to transport the iron plates. Obviously, they couldn't afford to wait in battle, so they just unloaded the iron plates that were close to each other.

As a result, even now, the number of iron plates in Sia's hands is still staggering. These big guys weighing hundreds of pounds were thrown into the water due to the buoyancy of the water. The weight would be much lighter, and four or five toad warriors would be able to easily carry it around. There were also a large number of them, and they had been ambushed around the Holy See fleet early. No matter where the Seven Princesses go from. They can all intercept the road in advance and get the magnetic iron plate on it.

Of course, there was a sound of iron plates on the battleship, but it was not loud, and there were violent explosions of magic everywhere outside, so the sound had long been muffled, and no one heard it. Moreover, it was already dark at this time, and the scene in the water was not clear at all. The toad warriors have been working underwater all the time, never making their heads.

So it wasn't until the princess dared to feel that the speed of the battleship had slowed down that they discovered this unfavorable situation. However, it was already a little late at this time, and each battleship was densely stained with hundreds of iron plates, and the weight of dozens of tons was pressed up, and several ships were almost sinking.

There is no need for the commander to speak, and after detecting the existence of the toad warrior, the firepower of the mages will automatically concentrate underwater, but the effect is not very good, the fire bomb is fire after all, after it is launched, it will be extinguished soon after it flies not far, and the power of the explosion is greatly reduced, unless it is blown up head-on at a very close distance, otherwise the toad warrior will not die at all.

As a last resort, the Seven Princesses had no choice but to order ten elven mages from each ship to cast thunder-based spells on the deck. After the lightning struck, the toad warriors were electrocuted one after another, which temporarily organized them to continue to stick to the iron plate. However, this also affected the power of the battleship, causing the speed of the battleship to be further reduced.

At the same time, there is a new trouble, which is those nasty ropes. Because the iron plate is irregular, it is convenient to use ropes to bind in many places, and just now when the toad warriors were dipping the iron plates, they had already tied many thick cables to the iron plates. There are about dozens of them on each battleship, and each rope is a hundred meters long.

When the toad warriors realized that they could no longer look at the iron plate on the battleship, they tied the iron plate to the lower end of the rope. The same is equivalent to adding weight to the battleship. The Holy See once conducted experiments, this kind of iron plate is very magnetic, once it is stained, it is difficult to pull it off with external force.

Therefore, when the iron plate was gone, the toad warriors were like a tug-of-war, and more than a dozen people dragged a rope to the sea. Because they were under the water at a depth of 100 meters, even the mage's lightning spell would not cause them much damage, so they could safely and boldly pull the rope, obviously with the intention of sinking the ironclad battleship to the bottom of the sea.

In normal times, if the ironclad battleship possessed by so many iron plates was pulled by thousands of toad warriors, it would have been pulled into the deep sea to swim. But don't forget, the skeleton mages on the battleship are all masters of flotation, and when they are under the hands of goblins, they usually rely on flotation to control the molten steel and other processes in the large iron furnace. As a result, their mastery of the levitation technique has long been perfected.

When they found out that their battleship was about to sink to the ground, they almost subconsciously used the levitation technique, and later each battleship had a hundred skeleton mages, of which fifty could use the levitation technique to ensure that the battleship was unsinkable. As for the seven battleships of the Seven Princesses. Although his own skeleton mage has no magical power, he was able to escape by relying on mages on ships in other places. But everyone broke out in a cold sweat.

On the other side, Sia saw the Seven Princesses begin to retreat backwards. And ordered all the mages to start attacking the toad warriors underwater, and immediately understood that the matter had been exposed, but he still said with a smile: "I only know now, it's a pity that it's late!" Order those toad warriors to use the rope well, and delay the escape speed of the seventh princess at all costs." At the same time, he urged the vanguard fleet to quickly cut off the back route for the Seventh Princess to escape, and completely surround her. ”

"Hehe, I didn't expect to be counted by Your Excellency. The Seven Princesses are still coming from the net. I see that the Seven Princesses are afraid that this time they will not be able to escape, congratulations to Your Excellency the Commander, for finally winning the victory in this world-renowned sea battle. Somira said excitedly at this time. He admired in his heart Sia's precise calculations.

"It's still early!" Xia smiled slightly: "We should not underestimate the Seventh Princess at any time, if we don't sink her completely, I won't be at ease! What's more, how can she be so fast when she is running now?"

"yes. It seems that there is at least a speed of fourteen or fifteen knots, what are those stupid toads for?" said Somira dissatisfied.

"It's their approach that's wrong, and it's not supposed to be a pull-down now. Instead, it should be pulled backwards, so as to offset the ground power of the battleship!" Xia Xia said: "Order those toad warriors to immediately pull diagonally sideways, and send more people up, you must not let the Seventh Princess run away!"

Sure enough, after Sia's order was accurately executed by the toad warriors, the speed of the Seven Princesses' fleet slowed down again, and it was less than ten knots. Since half of the skeleton mages have to maintain levitation and cannot fight directly, if they want to go to war with the Holy See's magic fleet in this case. Seven princesses, they will definitely die ugly.

Seeing this, the Seventh Princess was startled at first, and then said with a smile: "This Holy See commander is really a bit unexpected! It is really admirable that he can come up with such a bad move!"

"It's all pulled at this time, and you still laughed out. What now?" Uncle Zu smiled bitterly: "Remind you, the troops that were dumped by us will follow again!"

"Hehe, the game of foxes and hunters has not yet come to an end!" the seventh princess smiled, "If you want to win me with just such a little information, the mysterious commander of the Holy See fleet will be very disappointed!"

"Do you still have a backhand?" asked Shuzu in surprise.

"Hehe, order the fleet, retreat at full speed!" After the seventh princess finished speaking, she turned to her uncle and said, "When the sinister husband of my family taught me, he once said a very classic sentence, you must always leave yourself infinite backhand!"

"Infinite backhand?" said Uncle Zu strangely, "Is it possible?"

"Hehe, try it!" the Seventh Princess then shrugged, and then ordered, "Use the Stygian Light Tower to blast underwater!"

Then, the five Stygian Towers installed on each battleship began to glow, and black rays of light shot into the vast sea. Obviously, on a battleship moving at high speed, it is very difficult to accurately hit the rope that is constantly shaking underwater, but after all, there are a lot of those ropes, plus there are more than 300 Stygian Towers in total, so when launching in a concentrated manner, it is still possible to occasionally break a few ropes.

However, the effect is not too obvious, after all, there are dozens of ropes under each battleship, and breaking a few will have no effect at all. And the magic fleet of the Holy See is getting closer and closer. When the seventh princess saw this, she frowned, then stomped her foot fiercely, and said unwillingly: "What the husband said is good, Ci is not in charge of the soldiers! Don't blame me, I can't help it! Order the skeleton mage, take off his coat, tie a rope around his waist, and go into the water to break those nasty ropes for me! Thirty of them per boat!"

"Oh my God, this is too dangerous, isn't it?" Uncle Zu said: "Those toads will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to attack, and when the time comes, I'm afraid that few of those skeleton mages will be able to come back!

"No way, if we don't sacrifice them, we'll be finished" The seventh princess sneered: "However, the loss will definitely not be too big, they are all steel bones, not so easy to be broken, plus the existence of the levitation technique, it is difficult to sink into the sea!

As the skeleton mages on the ironclad battleship jumped into the sea one by one, the toad warriors below also immediately boiled and quickly moved up, they knew that this was obviously the safest time, as long as they were mixed with these skeleton mages, the mages above would not use spells to attack them.

The skeleton mage was in the water for the first time, and they were very uncomfortable with their movements, and they were metal, so they were sucked on the iron plate all of a sudden, and they couldn't move their limbs for a long time, and it was difficult to turn over. Luckily, there was a rope not far in front of them, so they simply leaned their backs to the bottom of the boat and used the Hellfire Bullet to hit the rope.
