Chapter 298: Angel's Rivalry (Part II)

The sudden hostility made Cross and the others nervous, and even Nia raised the monocular in her hand.

The dense fog created by Fiona has a very strong concealment effect, and basically no one can see the situation in the middle of this fog from a distance, but there are advantages and disadvantages, the other party can't see Tang Jie's two warships, and they can't see others, in terms of vision, the two sides are extremely fair.

In other words, when Tang Jie's battleship discovered the enemy ship that suddenly appeared, the other party also discovered them, and this kind of encounter is more than the reaction of both sides and the desire to fight.

It was a three-masted Vulture-class battleship, apparently modified, with two rows of huge oars sticking out from under its hull, and in combination with the wind and manpower, such a ship had incredible speed in naval combat.

The owner of this three-masted Vulture-class battleship is none other than a famous pirate in the Thorpe Sea, Carmenon, and those who know him say that he is a shark cruising in the sea, and he will not spare any kind of food!

When he heard the news of the Coral going to sea, Carmenon and his men followed the Coral from a distance, waiting for them to enter the edge of the Thorpe Sea before catching up.

This is a trick often used by Carmenon, who, with the incredible speed of his battleship "Flying", suddenly catches up with his opponent and then forces him to engage in hand-to-hand combat, thus winning the battle in one go.

Hand-to-hand combat, this is the trump card tactic of all the pirates' tactics, and it is also the most ferocious and crazy tactic, killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred.

At the beginning, the old captain Barr was inspired by the pirate fighting spirit, and achieved an amazing counterattack with crazy hand-to-hand combat.

In naval warfare, hand-to-hand combat does not dominate, artillery and magic are the protagonists of naval warfare, but the bloody and cruel hand-to-hand combat makes it still occupy an extremely important position in naval warfare.

This is often the case with pirates and military duels.

The warships of the officers and soldiers were tall and hard, and the firepower was fierce, and more often the officers and soldiers relied on the powerful firepower of the sea ships to sink and kill the pirates, and it was precisely because of this that the officers and soldiers subconsciously developed a strong dependence on artillery, and would rather sink the opponent at a long distance than engage in hand-to-hand combat.

The lives of officers and soldiers are expensive, how can they exchange their lives with those lowly pirates?

Hand-to-hand combat and bayonet combat are actually the same, and the casualty ratio is always infinitely close to one to one, but often one side collapses quickly.

The firepower of the pirates' warships was obviously weaker than that of the official warships, and the ships were much less, so they could only work speed, and when they encountered a naval battle, they would desperately move forward under artillery fire and strive for hand-to-hand combat.

The long-term duel between the official and the pirate continued, forming a style of hand-to-hand combat in which the pirate immediately stepped forward with a full sail once he met the enemy ship, and hand-to-hand combat also had an advantage for the pirate: that is, once the opponent was defeated, the enemy ship could be captured and all the supplies captured.

If it is just an artillery battle, then all the opponent's warships and supplies will be reduced to ashes, where will the pirates eat?

Because of this, when Carmenon saw this black and oppressive battleship in the dense fog, he was suddenly startled, and the pirate next to him looked at the dense sails blankly, and asked, "Captain, what should we do?"

The pirates who were originally holding their sleeves and preparing to engage in hand-to-hand combat also looked at this battleship in amazement, and they didn't understand why this fleet suddenly appeared in front of their eyes!

Although Tang Jie's First Fleet had just been established, Nia and Christina had tried their best to train them from rookies in naval warfare to naval elites, but training was better than no training after all, under the loud roar of the captains of various warships, the sails of the First Fleet quickly turned separately, the ships scattered one after another, barrels of gunpowder were pushed up, one after another shells were put into the muzzle, and the bow gun was quickly ready.

Although there were only ten battleships, and only ten bow guns were aimed at the "Flying Flight", the bow and stern guns were the two most ferocious cannons of a ship.

Although in a naval battle, the cabin gun is the key factor that determines the victory, it is the largest firepower output in a naval battle, but because the larger the caliber of the cabin gun, the greater the reaction force, dozens of cabin guns together will produce a tsunami-like reaction force, if this force is too large, then sometimes it can overturn a battleship in an instant, so the cannon caliber of the cabin gun is strictly regulated.

But the bow gun is different, because of the hull relationship, no matter how strong the reaction force of the bow cannon is, it will not have a great impact on the ship, so the caliber of this cannon is often twice that of the cabin gun, or even three times as terrifying!

In naval battles, sometimes a shell with ten cabin guns is not necessarily a big deal, but if one bow gun and stern gun are hit, the ship is basically half destroyed.

Although Carmenon was also a little dazed, he was a pirate leader after all, and he was extremely experienced in naval warfare, and when he looked at the posture, he suddenly felt cold and hairy on his body, as if the guns of the ten warships were pointing at his head!

He reacted quickly and roared in panic: "Turn around, turn around!"

The pirates on deck immediately got busy, the sails turned in a huge arc in the air, the ship began to tilt badly, and all the sailors were busy like crazy, desperately trying to turn the ship around and escape from this horrible hell!

However, in Tang Jie's eyes, this sudden battle was actually over.

He turned his head and smiled at Captain Cross and Manny Mosse and her maids, who were in a daze, and said, "Gentlemen, ladies, let's get out of here, gentlemen and ladies don't deserve to see such killings." ”

Cross looked straight at the battleship on the sea, and suddenly pointed with his hand: "Look!"

Tang Jie looked along the place of his finger, but saw that another sea ship appeared behind the "Feixiang" pirate ship, and the pirate flag was hoisted high, and it turned out to be another pirate ship following the "Coral"!

Tang Jie's eyes looked back and forth on Cross's body in surprise: "There are a lot of wolves behind you!"

Cross's face was so ugly that he didn't even know that he had already been targeted by a group of pirates.

Tang Jie patted the pale Cross on the shoulder and said, "Okay, go to my cabin and drink some good rum, suppress the shock, don't worry about these jackals, they are not a problem, I will help you solve them." ”

Manny Mosse on the side suddenly asked, "Captain, can I go with you to see the captain's room of this ship?"

After Manny Moss boarded the "Black Dragon King", she looked at every corner of the Black Dragon King with a pair of big eyes curiously, but no matter how she looked, she couldn't find the entrance to the cabin.

Tang Jie smiled and said, "This ship doesn't have a captain's room......

Manny Moss blinked and asked, "Why doesn't it have a captain's quarters? All ships have it, and why can't I see a sailor on this ship?"

Tang Jie shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's a gift from the sea god Tira, and it's different. ”

As soon as Tang Jie's words fell, suddenly there was a loud "boom", Tang Jie's fleet opened fire, and the ten bow guns roared at the same time, and the sound was terrifying.

The bombardment of the bow guns produced a strong retreat force, and the battleships retreated sharply, and then caused the waves of the sea to form waves, which slammed on the Black Dragon King, shaking Bernice and Manemos, and the two girls shook their feet at the same time, and their bodies fell on the deck, even the experienced captain Cross shook his body.

Angel also shook her body, and was supported by Tang Jie, who was quick-eyed, while Nia stood firmly on the side, like a javelin.

Tang Jie helped Angel and said to Cross and the others with a smile: "Let's go, gentlemen, ladies?"

Cross took a deep look at Tang Jie, this man stood in the cannon fire with a smile on his face, as if he was going to a feast, without the slightest nervousness.

When did the Nilsia Sea come out with such a hero?

Cross couldn't help but turn his head to look at the sea, where there was already a lot of smoke, and the huge waves that were bombarded by the bow cannon rose more than ten meters high, and then fell heavily, and the huge waves generated after dozens of tons of sea water suddenly fell made the two pirate ships that wanted to follow the "Coral" to pick up the cheap become stormy in an instant.

Soon, another round of artillery fire came down on the two pirate ships, one of which was hit by the shells of three bow guns at the same time, and half of the entire ship was suddenly gone!

Messy wood chips are flying everywhere in the air!

Cross closed his eyes, and he knew that, as the young captain had said, "the battle was over at the beginning."

Cross straightened his collar, bent down respectfully, and made a noble gesture, signaling Angel and Tang Jie to go first.

Tang Jie's eyes looked at the sea, looking at the two pirate ships covered by artillery fire, and his eyes were a little complicated for a while.

Once upon a time, he was just a small pirate with only one pirate ship......

Can ...... now

It's like a world away!

It wasn't until Angel held Tang Jie's arm and used some force that Tang Jie reacted. After following Angel's reserved nod to Cross, the two walked along the deck of the Black Dragon King to the Hell, leaving Nia still in control of the magic power warship on the Black Dragon King's bridge.

Before Tang Jie accompanied Cross and the others into the cabin, Bill walked up to him and said in a low voice: "Just now, the leader of the Magic Legion, Chrysman, called the flag and asked: Do you need to change the combat objective?"

Tang Jie stopped, watched Angel accompany Cross into the cabin, and then whispered: "No, tell him that according to the original plan, in ten days, I will sit in the Admiral's Mansion in the Clarim Port of the Hila Empire for breakfast!"
