Arcane Lord

“The big…the big thing is not good! The enemy ahead suddenly turned the bow of the ship and rushed towards our flagship!” The lookout hand standing on the main mast tried hard. Ringing the alarm bell, while yelling.

He looks a bit lose one’s head out of fear. After all, the tonnage of heavy battleships is similar, and all the bows are equipped with collision angles. Once they collide head-on, the result is likely to be perish together.

After all, the bottom hull of a wooden sailboat is very fragile, and this World does not have airtight cabin technology, so as long as you hit a big hole that cannot be repaired in a short time, then sinking will be unavoidable.

It can be said that in naval battles, impact is more formidable power than ship, and it is also a more dangerous tactic. Generally speaking, unless it is to burn both jade and stone, few captains will choose front Collided with a ship of his own tonnage.

The commander of the fleet, Mikhail Koman, is standing at the bow of the ship, holding up the monoculars inlaid with Phnom Penh, and calmly watching the abnormal behavior of the two giant ships ahead, without being as flustered as the others. .

As a naval aristocratic family in Linton City, he has been on the battleship since he was fourteen. He has been on the battleship for more than forty years and spent 2/3 of his life drifting at sea. I have been used to winds and waves for a long time, and I have personally directed more than ten large-scale naval battles. So far I haven’t missed a defeat, so I can deal with it even in rare hurricanes.

Rich experience made this elderly fleet commander proud and stubborn.

Especially after destroying the ambition of the pirates to expand the sphere of influence again last year, he became more and more arbitrary. Even the orders of the dukes often outward devotion but inner opposition. Besides, no one in Linton City can be qualified for the post of naval commander.

But when Mihail Koman was so proud and planned to find an opportunity to capture Bacaro City in one fell swoop, and build a worldless meritorious service, a group of people who didn’t know where they came from actually took advantage of the night. Covering, trying to snatch the heavy main battleship, but also successfully snatched two ships and burned three ships, it was a blatant humiliation.

With his status and reputation today, how could he tolerate the other party’s easy escape, and therefore, regardless of everyone’s opposition, forcefully ordered all ships to follow and pursue him.

Of course, the purpose of this is not to recover the lost battleship, but to save the lost face, at least not to allow the enemy to obtain the advanced shipbuilding technology of Linton City.

Otherwise, once the internal structure is cracked, there will soon be a large number of battleships over 1,000 tons in the South Sea Territory, which is absolutely disastrous for the sea hegemony of Linton City.

In short, whether it is to preserve reputation and status, or to prevent the leakage of precious battleship information, Mikhail Koman must at all costs, capture or sink the stolen ship.

Now seeing the opponent turn the direction and bump into it, instead of a trace of fear, he secretly sighed in relief, and immediately roared at the adjutant: “Give my order! Keep all ships at a minimum distance! Once it happens! Impact, be sure to stop the enemy immediately! Never let them run away again!”

“Bump…impact?!”

The young adjutant swallowed subconsciously, I was so nervous that I couldn’t even say anything.

He couldn’t imagine the terrifying result of a collision with two heavy battleships traveling at full speed at the same time.

“Yes! Crash! Just use this flagship under our feet as a bait to retake our battleship! I want to see who has the courage to fight Lin The Duncheng Navy is the enemy!” Mikhail Koman clenched his fist, fiercely smashed the mast, and the anger in both eyes was about to blast out.

Seeing the old man’s incomparably hideous expression, the young adjutant took a deep breath and warned very seriously: “Your Excellency! I have to remind you that if there is an impact, our flagship is likely to sink!

Maybe you haven’t noticed that the chaos tonight has caused three heavy battleships to burn, four frigates and a dozen armed merchant ships were knocked over. Although the number of casualties is still counting, it can be conservatively estimated. It will not be less than six hundred.

This is the worst loss we have suffered since the beginning of the trade war. If the parliament gets this news, you will definitely remove your post of naval commander. Once the flagship If there is another accident, you will even be severely interrogated for this.”

“Stop the nonsense! Carry out the order! Lieutenant! It’s not your turn to intervene in my business!” Mikhail Koman Rudely interrupted the other’s kind persuasion.

“Well, I will execute the order, I hope you know what you are doing…”

Seeing that the old man has been dazzled by anger, the adjutant can only helplessly shrugged. , Turned around and winked at the flag bearer, who immediately came to the stern with a lamp covered with black cloth, and sent signals to other ships by blocking the light.

The flashing lights are so conspicuous on the dark sea, even Kent, who is on another ship, can see clearly.

But he didn’t care what the other party was sending the head. He just sneered lifts the head and asked the lookout hand on the mast: “How, is everything ready?”

“Yes, Captain, everything is ready. Ms. Grace is also waiting for us to signal.” Ur poked his head out and replied loudly in excitement.

“hahahahaha! Very good! Very good! Then send a signal now! Tell everyone, immediately put down the boat, the grand fireworks show will start soon!”

As he laughed, Kent took out two flints and rubbed them lightly. The golden fire star splashed in all directions instantly, and several of them happened to land on the deck soaked in kerosene.

Shoot!

The bright tongue of flame quickly followed the pre-set route directly into the lower cabin, and started burning from the inside to the outside.

Maybe there is no obvious light on the surface, but in fact, the interior is already blazing, especially the large amount of black smoke emerging from the hull, which is completely covered by the night.

Feeling that the temperature on the deck is getting higher and higher, everyone put the boats into the sea one after another. After a while, Kent led his men and began to paddle hard, and followed closely. Behind the heavy battleship, after the collision, it was planned to take advantage of the chaos to join the pirate fleet that was about to arrive.

I have to say that in terms of tactics, Seawolf Kent is indeed a rare genius. With his rich sea warfare experience and incomparable courage, he forcibly turned the pirates from an absolute disadvantaged position to A great situation.

As long as the next impact can destroy the flagship, then the pirate fleet that rushes can solve the battle like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood, and completely seal the victory, and he can also rely on perfect performance. , Won the worship and admiration of countless pirates.
