Chapter 883, Great Battle of the Dragonfjord (Preface)
Mid-November of 2513 in the imperial calendar, the 350th year of Finnubar's calendar in One Piece, and the 5235th year of the Dark Elf Witch King's calendar.
A giant combined fleet of Dark Elf Fleet and Undead Pirate Fleet is heading towards the seas off Ulthuan.
After the division of the Dark Elf's warships, there were about a dozen left, but they included the Black Ark flagship "Tower of God's Blessed Evil Party" from Loxia-Fallen Heart and the most elite Black Ark pirates under his command.
After a certain degree of division of the undead pirate fleet, there are about thirty-six warships left, including the flagship "Blood Marauder" composed of the remains of countless burial ships and the entire Von Carstein Castle. Number".
Loxia-Fallen Heart, is a well-tested Black Ark warlord. He was born in the famous Black Ark pirate family - the Fallen Heart family. He participated in several raids against the high elves when he was young and attacks, many ports were razed to the ground. In the blizzard and lightning, Loxia led the Black Ark back in triumph, announcing the return of the fallen heart. The first thing he did after taking power was to leave his father behind. All Black Ark officers were sacrificed to Kane.
However, this was not the battle that made Fallen Heart famous. The battle that Lord Kraken was truly famous for was when he passed through the Vampire Coast and defeated Luthor Harken and his undead fleet head-on, and then continued south to plunder After destroying the ruins of some temples abandoned by the lizard people, Loxia obtained uncountable wealth in the ruins of Chapeyuto, the sunken temple city of the lizard people, located in the depths of the sea. The Sorceress Sisterhood formed by Lacy hired seven dark elf sorceresses to give his army enough magical protection and the ability to breathe underwater. Then the Black Ark pirate army went deep into the seabed. Under the deep sea, they and Many huge sea creatures to fight.
Even mutated squids, sirens, piranhas, Leviathans, or Hydras couldn't stop Loxia's greed. In the end, he and his Black Ark army won a big victory, carrying boxes of His treasures and gold returned to the surface, and his harvest included many magical relics and ancient tablets, among which an artifact called the mask of the Kraken troll allowed him to communicate with the gods. Killing, looting and sacrifice in name.
His greatest act was to defeat the high-elf sea lord Aislin head-on in the vast ocean in the 254th year of the Finnubar calendar. Out of contempt, Loxia threw him into the sea to die, but unexpectedly Aislin was thrown into the sea. After being in the sea for six months, he was actually blown to the shore of the Kingdom of Itain (that is, the kingdom where the capital of Lothern is located) by waves. resurrection.
There is only one possibility for this matter, that is, Sea God Marselan made a move, and only Sea God can save Aislin in this situation.
But it doesn't matter, if you don't die once, you can kill it again. Loxia has never felt so excited. What's more interesting than beheading their sea lord in front of the high elves?
Now,
The neat black ark pirate army boarded the bloody predator, the flagship of the undead pirates. In front of the castle of the bloody predator, a team of deep sea guards and a team of black ark pirates stood on each side, and in the middle were Lord Loxia and Nok Count Truss, the two commanders are discussing the next battle plan,
"This is the battle plan of the high elves. They want to fight us off Tyranok." Loxia wore a golden Kraken mask on his face, revealing only a pair of scarlet eyes. He handed over the plan to To Count Noctilus.
In all fairness, Roxia looked down on these skeletons and salty meat playing with witchcraft. Obviously, only Druzzi was the overlord of the world destined to enslave all peoples.
However, for Drucci, defeating the high elves, retaking Ulthuan, and killing all the cousins who betrayed him is obviously the first priority. For this goal, other things can be postponed for a while: "Our pirate count What's your opinion?"
Count Noctilus could hear the sarcasm in Roxia's words, but the leader of the undead pirate kingdom was very calm. He could abandon von Carstein's surname and his own location in Sylvain. At this time, it’s okay to suffer a little anger for the alliance. Victory and revenge are the first priority now. Earl Nuo took the plan, looked at it carefully, thought for a while, and shook his head: “We can’t let your cousin realize it. In this battle plan, our ship has stronger firepower and greater power, but is more cumbersome. If the high elves take the initiative on the battlefield, their speed is fast, and our speed is slow. We will let them drag us on the sea .”
Loxia nodded slowly. It seems that Earl Nor is not too stupid. He knows the power of the high elf dragon ship fleet: "So do you have a plan against it? If you don't, then I will command the fleet."
"We're going to cut off the fleet of the high elves on the way." Earl Noo looked down at the tattered sea chart covered with all kinds of seaweed and moss, and pointed his withered fingers at a place: "We're right here, with the high elves Battle of the Fleets."
"Dragonfjord?" Loxia looked down at the chart.
Ulthuan is a roundabout, but there is a prominent peninsula between the capital Lothern and the Kingdom of Tyrannok in the west. From Lothern to the Kingdom of Tyrannok, you must bypass this peninsula, and it is on this peninsula On the mountain, there are the most famous Caledon active volcano and the Dragon's Spine mountain range, where a large number of giant dragons sleep.
"That's right, Dragonfjord." Earl Nuo described his tactics: "Our fleet directly engages the enemy in Dragonfjord."
"How exactly do you plan to do it?" Loxia's tone sounded like he was reading a joke.
"When the high elf fleet passes through Dragonfjord, we will directly attack the opponent's flank from the south!" Earl Nuo said his plan, and he pointed his finger at the south of Dragonfjord: "Cut off the opponent! "
"The enemy's ships are faster and more capable of turning, while our artillery is more powerful and more powerful. In this way, we can force the high-precision fleet to fail to play to their advantage, while our artillery side can play Unleash the greatest power." Earl Nuo leaned on his halberd, and the expression on his face was very cruel: "This is our plan. We will divide into two columns and forcefully attack the high-precision fleet from the side. As long as we can approach the enemy, the Caron cannon And mortars would do decisive damage at close range."
"Closer, and then?" Loxia waved the two crimson short knives in his hand, and the fallen heart recognized Earl Nuo's strategy and tactics: "Crash angle? Join the board?"
"No, the ending of Selostar-Fin of Terror has provided us with an excellent release. The enemy's ships have a very strong side-to-side battle army. We will not fight side-to-side battles with the enemy." Count Noble Then the plan was: "On the contrary, we should try our best to avoid boarding battles with the enemy. We must suppress the high elves through firepower to prevent them from approaching. I will be responsible for breaking through the center and cutting the enemy fleet in half. It's up to you."
Loxia-Fallenheart has a strong sense of vigilance in his heart. The skeleton in front of him is really a master of naval warfare. If it really follows his design, the undead fleet can avoid the advantages of the high-spirited fleet and make use of its strengths to avoid its weaknesses. .
"Good point, but what about those two iron-clad ships?" Loxia said coldly, "Don't you know how powerful the iron-clad ships are?"
"Ironclad ship? Hahahaha, don't worry, I have prepared several Queen Bess cannons." Count Noble let out a cold and biting laugh: "Even an ironclad ship will be blasted to pieces under this kind of artillery!"
Queen Bess Cannon, the war weapon of the undead pirates at the bottom of the box, a super giant cannon with a caliber of 800 mm.
Few people know that this giant cannon is actually an invention of the empire. It was designed by a white-haired alchemist - the crazy Sigismund a few years ago. Engineers and gunpowder craftsmen praised the emperor This warship was finally put into production after many failures after the dwarf engineers in the World's Edge Mountains joined the production work, named "Hell's Hammer".
At first, the empire wanted to put the cannon into the field, but because the cannon was too heavy and inconvenient to carry, it was basically only used for defending the city. The cannon that the empire spent a lot of money on researching and manufacturing became useless. used waste.
But the engineers did not give up the plan to continue to improve. After studying, they decided to install the Hell's Hammer cannon on the battleship. Battleship, this kind of giant cannon is amazingly destructive in naval battles—for both the enemy and our own people, as long as it hits, the opponent's battleship will instantly be reduced to pieces, but if it is not fired or exploded, then the Rick naval battleship will be destroyed. You will be wiped out in an instant.
After many actual battles, the Hell's Hammer battleship lost a lot of course, and many Hell's Hammer cannons sank to the bottom of the sea. The empire had almost no way to salvage them, so all these cannons became the spoils of undead pirates. After modification and the blessing of undead magic, the Queen Bess Cannon was born, and the undead pirates used this artillery to gallop across the ocean.
For this naval battle, Earl Noble brought out his Queen Bess cannon.
"Very well, my Black Ark will also cover you with firepower." Loxia finally had nothing to say, and Lord Kraken thought to himself that he would wait for his cousins to die first, and then I would deal with you.
"Besides, I have prepared a gift for your cousin." Earl Nuo showed a cruel expression on his face.
Under Roxia's surprised eyes, a giant undead Leviathan with a length of tens of meters floated on the rough ocean surface. The body of this giant sea monster has been transformed into the most unsightly ship. The battleship, and above the corpse of the sea monster, fluttered the battle flag of Skaven and the screaming death knell made of a mouthful of dimensional stone.
"I'm honored to introduce you to our Skaven ally, the undead Leviathan battleship Scabra and its Skaven admiral, Mr. Skreche." Earl Nor laughed.
A Skaven warlord whose whole body was festered, half-dead, whose skin melted, emitting a stench and dripping yellow-green juice appeared in front of everyone. At the same time, an undead Skaven engineer and his tattered Dimensional stone aircraft.
"Yesyes~Ace pilot, get ready, pointy ears, diedie!"
…………I am the dividing line of pointed-eared deadie………
Early the next morning, off Ulthuan.
The high-elf star dragon fleet is marching on the vast ocean, and the high-elf star dragon fleet led by the sea lord Aislin is sailing on the sea off Ulthuan.
This fleet is composed of thirty-three high-precision warships and two ironclad ships. The flagship of the golden mage, the Burning Scimitar, and the original flagship of Ryan, the Landuin, are still being repaired due to serious damage. The flagship of the fleet is the sea lord Aislin. Tyrion also stayed on the four-story star dragon giant ship "Marselan". This battleship was loaded with soldiers from three legions, equipped with a sun dragon, two phoenixes and 98 eagles. Claw Ballista.
The Star Dragon Fleet advanced along the Dragon Fjord. They lined up in two rows, and the array was two to three curves slightly protruding to the left. Amidst the sea wind and waves, the Star Dragon Fleet advanced with full sail.
It's just that the wind is not strong enough, but even so, the Star Dragon Fleet left the two armored ships behind.
On the Enterprise, Ryan was talking to Suria, Orika, Bertrand, Juan and others. The King of Knights stood on the side of the ship, looking at the glorious fleet of the high elves, and said casually: " It turns out whoever controls the ocean controls the world."
"Your Majesty, the high elf still doesn't seem to trust us, and he left us behind." Juan came up and said dissatisfied.
"Our speed is not as fast as the star dragon giant ship of the high elves." Ryan was very open about this. He noticed that the Saint Sophia was even slower than the Enterprise, and on the deck, those from Allah Bi's Janissary regiments were gathering together to sing military songs, and the melodious singing came faintly from a distance.
"ceddin, deden, neslin, baban~"
"ceddin, deden, neslin, baban~"
Maybe, this is the Roman Praetorian Guard, Ryan thought.
After a while, the Enterprise also began to sing military songs.
"I love fried onions, of course this is a good onion~"
"I like fried onions, like onions, like onions~"
"Forward, comrades, forward, comrades."
"Forward~forward~forward~"
The high elves soon discovered that the two iron-clad ships trailing behind were singing military songs. The arrogant high-elf soldiers discussed it and began to sing the military song "The Phoenix Banner Never Falls" together.
"Did you ever see what made us so proud at the dawn of the morning- what we cheered for before the first light?"
"The phoenix flag is flying forever, Alario's will echoes on Ulthuan, in this free country, the hometown of the brave~"
"Floating forever~"
Amid the loud and clear military songs, the human high-precision joint fleet marched along the roundabout.
Until the thick fog filled the distance, amidst the rain and lightning, a huge enemy fleet appeared in the distance.
The High Essence Fleet spotted the Undead Dark Elf United Fleet immediately. Sea Lord Aislin was shocked by this, but he did not panic at all, but immediately ordered everyone to prepare for battle.
"Enemy ship found! Twelve nautical miles away!"
"Ready to fight! Ready to fight!"
"For Ulthuan, for the Phoenix Court, and for Marselan!"
At 9 o'clock in the morning, the largest naval battle since Finnuba's accession to the throne - the Great Battle of the Dragonfjord, started off the coast of the Dragonfjord.
