Extraordinary Sailing

"Extraordinary Sailing ( to find the latest chapter!

Because of the moving speed of conventional sailing warships.

It wasn't until 9:12 in the morning that the ship's more dexterous Alliance battle line seized the upper hand, facing the wing on the left side of the Sirius Crescent across the sea.

And with the advantage of its own shipboard artillery being more sophisticated (better air tightness and longer effective range), it took the lead in launching an artillery attack.

"Each artillery team is ready to fire three rounds of solid bullets!"

The gunners of the warships repeated the commander's orders and greeted each other in accordance with the traditional battlefield etiquette of the Old Continent.

Under the operation of skilled artillery, there are two types of heavy guns on the Tulip battleship that can inflict heavy blows on enemy ships: the 32-pound gun and the 24-pound gun. The rate of fire can reach 2 rounds and 3 rounds respectively.

This is a speed beyond the reach of the people of Hilius.

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! ...

Suddenly, the blazing cannon flames connected into a sea of ​​flames, and the light blue smoke filled the clouds, and even the entire ocean groaned overwhelmingly.

While the Hilius soldiers on the opposite side fought back without showing any weakness, at this distance, the steel knight's very disturbed head was also clearly seen by them.

Steel knight Kungang Taita served as the deputy commander of the fleet, and almost no one in the entire Hilius fleet did not know him.

Seeing that head swaying constantly on the mast, most of the left wing of the Crescent Formation was in an uproar. The soldiers were hit harder than that round of rapid-fire artillery, and even the sound of the gunfire when they returned the fire was obviously messy.

The decisive battle is still in the warm-up stage, and the deputy commander of the own fleet has already lost his opponent. If he is still alive, it is real, the third person after the army commander Ricard and the navy commander Griffits.

Hilius as the flagship of the three-tier ship "San Juan".

"Your Excellency Commander?"

The adjutant couldn't help asking about the gray-haired supreme commander of the fleet.

Ricard's face was equally ugly, but not for the news of the death of the Steel Knight, but because of his negative influence on the battle. Even as a royal party, what the general said was merciless:

"The **** Kungang... why can't you die a little bit further? Order, the San Juan departs from the team!"

"but..."

"Excuting an order!"

In order to facilitate the command of the commander, the "San Juan" has been patrolling back and forth along the entire Crescent Formation consisting of forty warships. If it is replaced by a large fleet consisting of hundreds of warships, it will generally be patrolled by several deputy commanders and commanders in the fleet.

The third-tier ship "San Juan", serving as the commander's seat, is the largest among the entire fleet's third-tier battleships, not to mention the fact that it still has the flag of the fleet commander, which is really conspicuous.

However, after leaving the team for self-propulsion, he lost the cover of the fleet and was directly exposed to the alliance battle line.

In the history of naval battles in various countries, there has never been a precedent of a ship alone being surrounded by enemy forces but not being occupied by a ship. For the side with the superior local combat power, when the goal is of great value, gang warfare is the only way to ensure that the spoils are won intact.

Ricard believed that it would be weird if the Alliance forces could hold back their own decoy and not lean over.

At that time, as long as you can hook an enemy ship with a hook and lock and pull into the battle, you can independently support it until the reinforcements arrive. Finally, the enemy fleet was dragged into a melee, which is the "sea siege warfare" that Hilius is best at.

Then... the battle can be over.

However, since they are both Nemansters, their innate endowments must be the same. Why are the fighting strengths of the Hilius superior by nature?

In addition to the fact that training methods and management concepts are really advanced, the most important reason is to search for resources around the world to support their troops. In the knight apprentice stage, the growth of physical fitness comes more from the intake of nutrients, supplemented by knight breathing and swordsmanship.

With ample supply of resources, even if the population base of Hilius itself is not dominant, the energy source is endless to cultivate extraordinary people at all levels far exceeding the number of others.

In terms of soldiers' combat strength, there is indeed an overall gap between Tulip and Overlord Hilius.

Lieutenant General Elvis understood Ricard's plan. He was under heavy pressure in this war, and it was of course a great temptation for him to be able to destroy the enemy's command system.

However, the current strength comparison between the two sides does not allow him to make a single mistake. The dominant Hilius can be more radical, and the alliance may be completely defeated as long as one negligence.

"The Maywind, Albatross, and Oak at the end of the team faced off. The other ships kept their formation and continued to advance."

He resisted the desire for that sweet fruit, did not encircle him, but separated a squadron from the battle line consisting of 33 battleships.

Don't ask for merit, but ask for nothing!

In the horrified eyes of the Hilius, the battleships in the battle line acted like clouds and flowing water.

Every warship knows what it should do at a certain moment, some turn to leave the team, and some automatically substitute. It seems that they have practiced countless times in advance to transform the extremely difficult warships at sea.

"This level of naval command technology..."

Lieutenant Rickard narrowed slightly his eyes, which seemed old but sharp, and even he had to be shocked by the tulip's skill.

These warships are far more flexible than the "walls" of Hilius, have excellent maneuverability, and have an invisible master commander to dispatch them calmly. Because he didn't find any signal flags, horns, or anything else capable of command.

The three Tier 4 ships did not move forward. They maintained a distance of about 300 meters along with the ocean current, maintaining the wind direction and flexibility, and only fought this flagship with long-range artillery.

"Change the side with the wind, let's stop it down the wind!"

The "Maywind" at the top of this sub-queue did not allow it to switch course, and blocked the "San Juan" retreat.

Geer and Elantra, who had been put on the brigadier general uniform, were among them.

The remaining thirty warships continued to move forward and fought fiercely with the left wing of the Crescent Array.

The continuous artillery roared.

Another Tier 3 ship in the Hilius fleet raised its command flag and temporarily took over command.

The key to battle line tactics is to obey command and fight bravely. The key to success or failure lies in persistence. Whoever can't stand to break away from the "chain" will lose the possibility of a comeback.

With the current attack power of artillery, this process may take a long time.

at the same time.

A group of sailors armed with rifled Kentucky rifles quietly climbed onto the main masts of their respective battleships and quietly aimed the sights on the opposite side.

The Kentucky style is characterized by a longer gun body, smaller caliber, lighter weight, and high precision. Although it also has shortcomings such as slow loading and high cost, it is a rare weapon in the hands of the right person.

Just like this group of sharpshooters who have been re-recruited after training in the wilderness of the New World.

The long distance may not be as good as the sniper musketeer, but when the battle line is blasting, you can put a cold gun, not requiring every bullet to destroy an enemy, as long as you can kill an enemy officer is a big profit.

Extraordinary people can hide bullets under the muzzle, but they have to kneel when hit by inadvertent stray bullets on the battlefield where the cannonballs fly horizontally.

boom--

The war was completely opened.

Perhaps the outcome of this battle will not only determine the position of Hilius and Tulip on the sea, but also the development trend of future naval equipment and tactics.

Whose route is more correct, you will know at first try.

......

Thousands of cannons blasted, as if the sea was about to be shattered.

"Spectacular!"

On the quasi-legendary battleship "Cape Storm" responsible for peripheral mobile operations, Ivan, Olivia, and most of the officers have seen this level of offensive and defensive battleship fleet for the first time in their lives.

Among them, the refinement of tactics, command capabilities, and equipment applications is even harder to describe.

The spiritual network built by the seagulls will faithfully record the bits and pieces that happened on the battlefield, and will be used by Aiwen to review and learn after the war, turning it into his most precious experience.

After seeing the "Maywind" join the sequence of siege of the "San Juan", Aiwen ordered Olivia next to him:

"Hersey, pay attention to support!"

"understand!"

The heroic female officer has already set up the "electromagnetic gun" on the back tower, and can support any corner of the battlefield at any time. Gehr and Elantra have even higher priority than the commander.

at the same time.

Buzzing...

The "Longsnout Mackerel" that once released the "Storm Horn" pigeons has dragged a long white line and rushed over quickly.

The battle belonging to the "horn of the storm" began.

......

The battlefield was in the northern part of the Gulf of Benin, Lagos, the largest port in Nigeria, the Falitis colony.

Almost at the same time the battle started.

"Holy Grace!"

"All things belong to the Lord!"

"Ula—"

A batch of dark indigenous warriors rushed to the port in small boats and roared. Obviously, this was the reason why the Dahomey Kingdom, which had completely resembled Hilius, did not even appear on the battlefield.

The Alliance has put almost all the main warships on the battlefield, and only a few offshore cruise ships stay behind, and it is impossible to stop these dark natives.

This is the scheming of Hilius. No one said that the frontal fleet battle and the backfighting battle cannot be carried out at the same time. No matter whether the alliance's reconnaissance system finds an abnormality or not, it is impossible to withdraw from the battlefield and return home.

For the Hilius, there is nothing impossible to do in order to win.

Even if they were attacked by their extremely fearful alchemy artillery, what was lost would not be the lives of the Hilius.

According to the information of the Hilius, the Dahomey specially replaced the landing ships with a large number of small offshore sampans in order to prevent the alchemy artillery.

Hilius promised them that all the looting would go to Dahomey, and they would never interfere even if the tulip looters became slaves.

The pie is really good enough.

However, when they attacked the port as they wished, thinking that they would easily break this defensive and empty city as they had captured other indigenous tribes in the past, they were hit by reality without mercy.

The face of the female commander of the Dahomey Kingdom vividly showed what is colorful black:

"Why are there so many Alliance soldiers here?

Those Hilius who love to brag, don’t UU reading www.uukanshu.com mean that the Tulip Army has suffered heavy losses now? "

The indigenous soldiers of the Dahomey Kingdom flooding the port city like a tide, bumped into a large number of well-aligned Union Army soldiers.

Under the cover of gunfire from the harbor bastion.

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! ...

A military-standard rifle far better than a trade rifle. It can send out blazing flames, and the hot lead bullets are like steel dams to block the black tide.

In a special period, even the governor of the colony, Sir Winston, came to the city in person, and he was slightly relieved when he saw the battle:

"I am a little grateful that the information is timely and that these lads can still take up arms to defend their homeland after recovering from injuries."

The army commander next to him looked at the tide darker than the coal rich in Nigeria, and said quietly:

"Your Excellency, I am even more grateful that the Anuma people didn't hold back until night before launching a night attack..."

"Uh...you are right."

According to the normal war damage ratio of wounded soldiers in this era, the casualties in the war with Hilius may indeed be large, but it is certainly not as exaggerated as the Hilius and Anuma people said.

Coupled with the popularity of "magic medicine" throughout the colonies of the southern continent, many soldiers who were destined to die have survived.

Before the final battle began, the alliance's base camp had already begun to move toward the center of the whirlpool, the Gulf of Benin, and the wounded soldiers were no exception.

Therefore, the commander of Dahomey would of course feel that the actual situation was seriously inconsistent with the information of the Hilius, and the **** Hilius simply pushed Dahomey down the fire pit.

Seeing his own soldier who was hit head-on, his heart was bleeding as the commander of the king's concubine.

Aiwen: Well, blame me?
