Chapter 886: Decisive Battle
"Small things? In the name of the Insman Royal Navy, you must inform me of anything about the Mermaid!"
Wearing a wig, the special envoy spoke rigidly and arrogantly, bearing the proud shadow of Insman's old gentleman. When speaking, he covered his mouth and nose with a white handkerchief, as if he had given Orlando great face.
"Okay...then I'll tell you!"
Orlando stepped forward and punched the gentleman in the face.
boom!
The liaison officer was bleeding from his mouth and nose, and fell on the deck, already in a daze.
"You fly-like thing keeps chirping in my ear, it's really annoying..."
Orlando grabbed the envoy's collar, his face full of disgust and disgust.
"How dare you... swear in the name of the queen, the navy will never let you go!"
The messenger's teeth leaked, but he still struggled to speak.
"Whatever, anyway, I'm ready to launch a rebellion and become a pirate... Which of you would like to lick that old woman's stinky feet?"
Orlando's last sentence was obviously addressed to the crew around him.
"of course not!!!"
Several pirates laughed, drew out their knives and roared: "We are pirates, free pirates, Ulla!!!"
"very good!"
Orlando made a gesture, and the pirates immediately stepped forward aggressively and put the envoy on the board.
"Oh! You can't do this!"
At this point, the special envoy was crying, holding the veneer tightly, and there were wet spots on his pants.
"You look like this, even if you are an enemy, you feel ashamed!"
Orlando closed his eyes.
Snapped!
A huge tentacle protruded from the ocean, and with a light roll, it grabbed Insman's special envoy and dragged it into the sea without even splashing any blood.
What happened on the Mermaid naturally attracted attention.
Immediately, several privateer ships approached, flagged and asked for news.
"Captain, do you want to dive now?"
Those pirates are the old gods. After all, as long as they have this skill, even if they are surrounded, they can escape a small life. Naturally, they are calm.
"No! Let's speed up! Seduce them to go forward!"
Orlando gritted his teeth and suddenly made a decision.
He still trusts the system very much.
Since the task is given and the camps are divided, it means that the strength of the pirates and the navy is not much different, but the possibility of a pirate trap ahead has increased sharply.
"fire!"
Thinking of this, he gave another order.
Rumble!
After a puff of white smoke, several armed merchant ships that approached but were unsuspecting suddenly suffered bad luck. Although they were not sunk, the two ships were seriously damaged and could no longer move.
In this sea area, if there is no rescue, the death penalty is almost pronounced.
"Pursuit!"
The sailing and wooden ship navy that was holding the battle immediately shouted: "Mermaid mutiny!"
There was a commotion and confusion in the fleet, and most of them finally chased after the Mermaid.
After all, apart from the Mermaid, the Octopus Pirates have several attached ships.
Once they are allowed to leave, the blow to morale will be too serious.
"Tell the old one-eyed and lame people behind to follow my flagship and get away when they get there!"
Orlando looked resolute.
With octopuses and sea monsters driving nailfish underwater, the ships on his side are more advantageous than the sailing ships behind.
The fleet behind was in a state of desperation and chased after them, and immediately entered an area of sea fog.
"Haha... well done, my buddy!"
When Orlando saw this scene, a smile appeared on his face.
As his contract partner, this octopus sea monster shared a certain amount of life and spirit, and its intelligence was much higher than that of ordinary sea monsters.
Therefore, many actions can be completed, such as... leading the way, or... tipping off the news!
He had already guessed that there was an ambush by pirates ahead, so he just went one step further and brought these miscellaneous troops in.
...
grunt! grunt!
The sea level under the sea fog suddenly changed.
With one point as the center, a huge vortex slowly formed.
This vortex is getting bigger and bigger, and the scope includes the entire motley army.
"Quick, cut off the sail and accelerate at full speed!"
Orlando's eyes were red, and he ordered fiercely.
Immediately, the Mermaid lowered its sails and accelerated, finally leading the octopus pirates to escape the edge of the whirlpool.
At this time, behind them, a terrifying huge vortex has completely formed, like a giant ocean beast with its mouth wide open, greedily devouring the sacrifices of life and flesh and blood.
"Sea God!"
After breaking through the vortex and fog, Orlando immediately saw the figure of the legendary pirate ship.
Next to the opponent, there are many main battleships of pirates, and the Sun is even more dazzling.
"Order, the extraordinary fleet does not move, and the rest of the pirate ships attack and take care of the remnants of the opposing army..."
Being dragged into such a maelstrom, the fleet would lose 40% to 50% immediately, and being chased by pirates would be like beating a dog in the water.
Even a regular steam ironclad fleet may not be able to maintain a strong fighting spirit, let alone this group of rabble.
"Nymphadora, well done!"
Fang Yuan did not forget to take out a shell, and praised it.
"Master, I've already consumed too much power. I'm afraid the Poseidon will not be able to launch such an attack in the next battle."
From the shell came Nymphadora's cautious voice.
The Poseidon can manipulate the sea, so it is naturally invincible in naval battles.
But it's not without cost.
It's okay to deal with one or two ships, but Nymphadora is not as good as her father for this kind of maelstrom that will affect a fleet, and she can use it once every three days at most.
No matter how many, it will really lead to exhaustion and even loss of life.
As for the reason why Fang Yuan didn't use this trick to deal with the steam armored fleet? One is because the opponent is too large and may not be able to catch it all at once. The second is that in the regular army of the navy, there are vaguely guarded by things such as national luck and heroic spirits. However, it has a weakening effect.
Although the magnitude is hard to say, Fang Yuan estimates that, with the momentum and background that Insman almost dominates the ocean at this time, if he wants to summon a tsunami to destroy his invincible fleet, there will be absolutely no storms and waves, that chick Nymphadora Instead, he was backlashed to death.
Unless it is his own deity who makes the move, it is a sure thing.
But doing so, even if the Armada is destroyed, it might provoke the world to intervene, and the gain outweighs the loss.
His state of mind at this time is very peaceful, anyway, the biggest goal of breaking through has been accomplished, and no matter what happens next, he just accepts the move.
In other words, the principal has been earned back, and the next step is to win more and win less, so naturally take it easy.
While Fang Yuan was contemplating, the naval battle ahead quickly came to an end.
One party has a good spare time, the other party is in a mess, and there are mobs, so there is no need to say more about the result.
This miscellaneous vanguard army was about to collapse at the first touch, and then entered the boring pursuit time.
Because he was worried about the upcoming decisive battle, Fang Yuan didn't let the pirates stalk him, but just let it go.
Anyway, this vanguard fleet is unlikely to participate in the follow-up battle.
...
Shipwrecks, broken planks, and corpses kept floating in front of them.
Seeing this scene, Admiral Feili's face immediately became gloomy: "Useless guys... I was expecting them to cause a little damage to the pirates and pin down one or two extraordinary ships... But now, there is only the mission of sending them to death." , they are well done."
"A Hive has come back ahead. According to its news, we may plan for the worst."
Lieutenant General Norton looked solemn.
After owning the Pirate King, the pirates worked together so hard and became even more difficult, which was beyond his expectation.
"Insman will never allow failure!"
Admiral Feili drew out his command knife: "Battle formation!"
"Battle formation!"
The orderly ran down quickly.
Not long after, the fifty steel warships formed a V-shaped wedge formation, like an unsinkable sea fortress, and their speed was extraordinary.
"arrive!"
Fang Yuan stood on the Sun, looking at a smoke screen that appeared in the distance.
Fifty steam ironclad ships appeared, just like a steel wall slowly pushed in, the oppressive force was unparalleled.
"Sun, Lieyang prepares..."
Fang Yuan saw this, but there was a sneer on his face: "Even if the heroic spirit of the national destiny can protect Chaofan, what about this purely physical attack?"
‘Ding, lock on the target! '
'Legendary ability - Lieyang, activate! '
On the Sun, a mechanical response came.
Streaks of brilliance gathered above the main cannon and suddenly turned into a strong white light.
Rumble!
The core of the steam ironclad ship on the opposite side, and the largest one, the Intrepid, instantly turned into a ball of flames and exploded violently.
The waves were raging, beating the surrounding ships.
Although I know that Lie Yang can only be used once, but this kind of deterrence is really unparalleled.
To Fang Yuan's surprise, after losing the flagship, the opposing fleet immediately started to counterattack despite the commotion.
The fierce artillery fire exploded in the pirate ship in an instant.
"Their Sun can only fire this shot, attack me! Attack!"
On another ironclad ship, Admiral Feili waved his command knife and roared hoarsely.
Lieutenant Admiral Norton next to him wiped off his cold sweat: "Fortunately, we got information from the Sun and made temporary arrangements... Otherwise, the flagship will be destroyed in one shot, and the subsequent naval battle will not be fought."
Even so, he couldn't help but look solemn.
What hole card is hidden by the Pirate King on the opposite side?
bang bang!
At this moment, many ironclad ships trembled, as if something exploded below.
"what happened?"
Admiral Feili shook his head and asked immediately.
"It's a nailfish! There are other sea monsters, with explosives strapped to their bodies! They exploded when they hit the water!"
Soon, someone will return.
"The Throne, has the other party subdued the King of Nailfish in this sea area?"
Lieutenant General Norton murmured, feeling a sinking heart...
