Chapter 711: Welcome Ceremony!
"The reconnaissance unit is attacking, be sure to figure out the enemy's position!"
"The fleet is dispersed and marches in an encirclement formation!"
"All remotely on standby, ready for air defense!"
…
Orders were issued from the gates, changing the atmosphere of the fleet, which was as leisurely as a vacation.
Even if he didn't take Storm Leader to heart, the steel discipline of the Navy still made him careless.
The navy soldiers also conscientiously carried out the orders of the 'deputy commander-in-chief'.
Peacetime training keeps the entire fleet running like a war machine.
A dozen nautical miles away on board the Radiant Chamber of Commerce.
"Sure enough, it is worthy of the 'Iron Wolf Race', even in the face of worthless adventurers, he is so serious, and he is ready to tear apart his prey with all his strength at any time!"
A senior church member in a bishop's robe put away his monoculars and commented on the performance of the Bucks fleet.
Naturally, not a single bishop came to watch the battle.
However, as the executor of the Radiant Emissary's plan, the Bishop understood that the outcome of this battle would be related to whether the plan could be better executed, so he came to watch the battle.
"Your Excellency Bishop, do we need to remind the other party of the information on the Storm Leader's magic battleship?"
A priest whispered for instructions.
The Templar Church who paid attention to the Storm Territory in advance naturally knew something about the Storm and understood that it was a magic warship, which is why this proposal was made.
"No, too strong hounds, it's not a good thing for the owner, only after hitting a wall will you really understand the importance of the owner, let's be a 'witness' with peace of mind!"
The bishop made a playful remark, indicating the role of the Templar Church in this plan.
Onlooker!
Although it is on the side of the Bucks fleet, it does not mean that the interests of the two sides are the same.
On the contrary, the Templar would like to see the Bucks Principality triumph.
Because the clerical power and the royal power are inherently mutually balanced, if one is weak, the other is strong.
And the bishop doesn't think that a simple magic battleship, or a magic battleship without any offensive ability, can defeat five steel warships equipped with artillery and other sharp weapons at sea.
It's a win!
With such a lineup, the church's biggest hope is only to be able to cause some losses to the Bucks fleet, and as for the failure, I haven't thought about it at all.
Even the Templars thought so, let alone any other power.
It is precisely because of these people's ideas that Zhao Hao needs a big war to prove that the times have changed, and the aircraft carrier flow is the strongest.
If you can't prove it, you will face endless troubles in the future.
"White Dragon, go all out to hatch the Bomb Wyvern!"
Zhao Hao commanded the Storm to move in the direction of the Buck Duchy's fleet at the same time, and at the same time, he also gave an order.
Following his order, he saw that the white dragon located in the core module of the Storm began to frantically devour the flesh and blood that had been prepared for it a long time ago.
The dragon eggs are expelled by its fat body, directly spread all over the cabin, and then the flesh and blood pipes connect the dragon eggs, allowing them to quickly hatch and grow, turning into explosive dragons.
Cards, cards!
The dense passages on the ship's sides opened up to allow the bomb wyverns to pop out.
Airplanes!
The swarm of explosive dragons with their eaths spread their wings flew towards the Bucks fleet that had just entered the Black Wind Sea.
Welcome Ceremony!
Since the other party came to participate in Zhao Hao's invitation, how could he give the other party a welcome ceremony.
Presumably, the other party will be impressed by this 'welcome ceremony'.
"Master, aren't we going to attack with us?"
Freya looked at the explosive dragon that flew away, and asked a little unwillingly.
She also wants to attack the Bucks fleet!
"No, it's not time for us to come forward yet!"
Zhao Hao shook his head, indicating that it was not yet time for them to come forward.
From the moment the Bucks fleet entered the Black Wind Sea, the outcome of this naval battle was actually predestined a long time ago, and the question was what their losses were.
If the first wave of attacks follows the explosive Wyvern, you will definitely get a lot of results, but you will also have a lot of losses.
After all, at this time, the opponent's long-range firepower is sufficient, not to mention, the flying unit is still intact, and the counterattack force is extremely strong.
Only after the opponent's long-range firepower has been lost and the flying force has been greatly reduced, they will not receive much counterattack after they follow the attack.
The other side!
The Storm was also spotted by the Bucks Fleet's reconnaissance force due to the fact that it did not start the Phantom March.
So the Bucks fleet rushed towards the Storm at full speed.
When the distance between the two sides approached a hundred kilometers, a swarm of explosive dragons appeared in the eyes of the Bucks Duchy fleet.
"All ranged units fire freely, flying units take to the air to intercept!"
Simon ordered loudly.
With the sound of the command, on the transport ship, first of all, three thousand units of Archangels spread their wings and rose into the air.
As a small-sized champion-level soldier, the Archangel's speed and dexterity are unquestionable, and he instantly rises into the air to attack as soon as he receives the order.
Phew!
Then the royal griffons followed into the air.
The combat effectiveness of the sixth-order flying class is not weak, and if the focus is on the flying class, whether it is a naval battle or a subsequent territorial offensive and defensive battle, it can play a big role, which is why it brings so much.
Well, in this attack on the Storm Territory, cannon fodder units like spearmen were not brought at all, and at least they started as fourth-order marksmen.
The reason is not difficult to guess, the transportation capacity is limited.
Therefore, it is not surprising to abandon the carrying of gunmen as cannon fodder.
Anyway, no one thinks that Storm Leader can really survive a round in front of such a powerful force, so it doesn't matter if the cannon fodder troop is brought or not.
Buzz, buzz!
The Explosive Wyvern suddenly dispersed and accelerated, and pounced on the Bucks fleet.
If the Royal Gryphon intercepted it, then the speed and dexterity could not match the explosive Wyvern.
After all, after the speed was transformed into the volume, it was greatly improved, at least much stronger than the royal griffin.
But compared to the archangels, even if the speed has increased a lot, it still seems extremely slow.
Boom, boom!
Therefore, in the face of the archangel who killed him, the explosive bomb flying dragon took the initiative to detonate the explosive bomb he carried.
But there were few or no results.
With the Archangel's dexterity, the time it takes to pop and detonate a bomb is enough to keep it at a safe distance.
Of course, the white dragon under the command of Zhao Hao also knows this, so the goal of these explosive flying dragons has never expected to be able to damage the archangel by exploding, but to use the explosion to cover other explosive flying dragons.
After the sky was flooded with explosions and flames, the archangel's vision was blocked, and naturally there was no way to intercept it, allowing most of the remaining half-explosive wyverns to break through the defense line.
Under normal circumstances, none of the explosive wyverns would want to break through the archangel defense line, and now most of them have broken through, which is enough to show the excellence of this tactic.
Just breaking through the archangel defense line does not mean that you can attack smoothly.
Phew, Bah!
Whizzing!
Hugh, Hugh!
Muskets, bows, spells and other long-range firepower fired at the same time, destroying most of the explosive wyverns that broke through the archangel's interception again, and the last remaining ones had to face the royal griffins to defend to the death, and at most a few hundred could not get close to the battleship.
"Watch out for the explosion!"
Simon reminded his men loudly.
Originally, he thought that under multiple interceptions, this weak and rigid flying creature would not be able to get close at all, but he didn't expect this to happen.
If he had known, he would not have been so careless.
But it's too late to say anything now.
The Wyvern carries a blaster that pops out of its tail and hits the target directly.
