Chapter 731: Victory in the First Battle

"Your Majesty, let's withdraw. The Izumo, Revenge and Queen can't be kept. Their biggest advantage is now their biggest disadvantage. Now they can't turn around at all, and the enemy won't give us a chance to turn around, but the latter There is still hope for the battleship, as long as His Majesty is safe and sound, we still have a chance to regroup, if His Majesty is lost here, our East China Sea Kingdom will be completely finished." Gordon, the captain of the King's Guard of the East China Sea Kingdom, persuaded Stubin earnestly.

"Three Dreadnought-class battleships, how many Dreadnought-class battleships do we have in total? Just give up and give up?" Stubbs roared emotionally.

Stubbs didn't know what Captain Gordon said.

When he saw the incomparably sharp first wave of counterattack by the leader of Yong Ye, Stubin knew that the three Dreadnought-class square sailing ships could not be kept.

Because of my own misjudgment again, I thought that the three Dreadnought-class brigs were invincible here, so I stuffed them into the mouth of the Yongye army leader.

The continuous shelling by the Yong Ye army also confirmed this point.

The accuracy of the opponent's shelling is far above their ship's ballista.

However, except for the first three rounds of bombardment, which fell directly on the Izumo, most of the others bloomed around the surrounding area, especially the black field bombs, which could not only envelop the three Dreadnought-class schooners into the black field, but also did not affect them. Hit hard.

The reason why it is so troublesome.

There is only one purpose.

I want to trap them, capture them relatively intact, and turn them into my own fighting power.

To be more precise, they have already regarded these three Dreadnought-class sailing ships as their own.

Knowing is one thing, making a decision is another.

This is a dreadnought-class sailing ship.

Three Dreadnought-class galleons.

There are only five Dreadnought-class sailing ships in the entire East China Sea Fleet.

Although the Dreadnought-class sailboat is not replicable like the Dragon Skeleton Battleship, the Donghai Kingdom itself has a complete construction technology.

But the difficulty of construction is not generally high.

For a Dreadnought-class sailing ship, it will take ten years at the fastest from the time the plan is made to the final launch, and this refers to the premise of sufficient financial resources.

If the financial resources are insufficient, the construction time will be doubled.

It is not uncommon for some of them to run aground halfway through construction and change hands several times, or to pile them up in the shipyard port and let them rot there, even because of the financial problems of the builders.

It is no exaggeration to say that every Dreadnought-class battleship, whether it is a sailing ship or a schooner, has gone through hardships before it is successfully built.

Take the three Dreadnought-class sailing ships in front of us as an example.

The Queen, built for thirteen years.

The Revenge took fifteen years to build.

The Izumo stayed in the shipyard for 18 years, and had three owners before it was launched. The builders changed four or five times, and finally took shape in the hands of Stubin.

They are a bit of wealth accumulated by the Third Fleet after spending hundreds of years.

How could it be possible to just give up and give up?

This is directly digging out three pieces of meat from Stubbs' heart, why not scratch his liver and lungs in distress?

This is not the scariest.

What made Stubin most terrified was that if these three dreadnought-class warships fell into the hands of the Yong Ye army leader, they would be equipped with the magic cannon just now.

Is there any way for them to survive in the East China Sea?

"Your Majesty, give up what should be given up, otherwise our losses will be even greater. At least on the surface of the sea, we still have a numerical advantage. We can't use it here at all." Captain Gordon pleaded again.

"I'm sorry to my ancestors, I'm a sinner of the Commons family." Stubbins spat out a mouthful of blood, howled like a wounded beast, his eyes had turned red, "Order to give up the Izumo , Revenge, and Queen, before that, try to destroy it as much as possible, cut through the bottom of the ship, cut off the mast, and set fire to the ship, even if I can't take them away, I must not leave them to the Eternal Night Army Leader."

Stubbing, who was pushed into a corner, completely broke out the vicious side of the pirates.

Even if these warships are completely damaged, they must not be left to the Yong Ye army leader like last time, and let them use them against themselves in turn.

"His Majesty Dubin ordered the bombing and sinking of the Izumo, Revenge and Queen."

"The Revenge has been lost. What are you waiting for? Let's run for our lives. It's too late and we don't even have a chance to escape."

"Flee, His Majesty has ordered to abandon the ship, don't get in our way."

"Your Majesty told you to blow up the warships before fleeing. Before that, no one can leave, otherwise these warships will be used by the leader of the Eternal Night Army to attack us."

"Escape for your life after blowing up the battleship. It sounds good. How will you escape then? You don't want to die, we still want to die. If you want to be loyal to His Majesty, we won't stop you, but don't drag us to die together. Get out of the way. If you don't get out of the way again, don't blame us for being rude."

"Anyone who disobeys His Majesty's orders, beheaded!"

"This bastard wants us to give the cloud number to be buried with him, brothers, what are you waiting for? Rush out! Kill!"

"Your Majesty has already run away, so don't be a fool here, it's important to escape!"

"It's not good, it's not good, the infantry led by the Yong Ye army has already groped up in the dark, run away!"

"Can't escape, they don't have many people, stop them with me."

"The first guard seized the gunpowder storehouse, the second guard went to the bottom of the ship, and the third guard followed me to guard the mast and sails. We must not let them damage the battleship too much. From now on, this is our property."

"As long as the battleship is not destroyed, we can let you live."

"Disarm and don't kill!"

Stubbs' order was not malicious, but it was really hard to say how much execution was left when it was passed down.

The sudden and violent shelling by the commander of the Yong Ye army not only shocked Stubin's mind, the other Donghai soldiers, who were also bombarded by Liushen Wuzhu, were in the black field, running around like headless chickens.

When Stubin's order to abandon ship was passed on, most of the Donghai soldiers completely collapsed. They only had one thought in their minds, and that was how to escape from the nightmare battlefield in front of them. of?

To do so would basically end up with the battleship, which required great courage.

Occasionally, there are Donghai soldiers who are loyal to Stubbs and want to carry out this order, and they also become a stumbling block for the courageous soldiers.

One side wanted to escape, but the other side refused.

The two sides immediately turned into enemies of life and death, drawing their swords at each other.

The scene became extremely chaotic, and few people actually carried out Stubbing's order to blow up the ship.

This is determined by complex human nature, and it is beyond Stubbs' control.

Not to mention, the leader of the Yong Ye army had already anticipated this possibility. When the city defense artillery started to fire, the navy in Jiangmen Port had already carried infantry and quietly touched the three dreadnought-class battleships. In order to attack the East China Sea Fleet, or to clear mines.

Even if those mines were not detonated by the freezing bombs, they would be frozen into lumps of ice and taken away, clearing the way for the Jiangmen Port navy led by the Yongye Army.

When Hei Yu popped his hand, he had no scruples. All the warships were fully powered, and rushed towards the locked target.

The three Dreadnought-class battleships in the black area became completely blind, and they did not form a strong resistance at all, so the ship-capturing troops led by the Yongye Army easily boarded the battleships.

Once the ship-robbing infantry led by the Yong Ye army boarded the battleship, the overall situation was basically settled.

On the one hand, the morale of the army is chaotic, fighting on their own.

On the other hand, morale is high and cooperation is seamless.

Not to mention that the soldiers of the Yongye army who were leading the boats all activated their night vision combat skills, so they were not affected by the black domain at all.

The result of the confrontation between the two sides was a one-sided massacre, which further accelerated the collapse of the soldiers in the East China Sea.

However, the main purpose of the boarding troops led by the Yong Ye Army was to maintain the integrity of the three Dreadnought-class ships, and they did not intentionally slaughter the East China Sea soldiers on the battleships.

In order to prevent these East China Sea soldiers from jumping over the wall in a hurry and destroying the battleship with the idea of ​​perishing together, the boarding soldiers of the Yong Ye Army even took the initiative to use flares to open a passage for them in the black area, directly leading to the side of the ship, and sent them to the ship. Drive into the river from the battleship.

"Report to the Marshal, the Third Corps of the Zeshui Army has successfully captured the enemy ship Queen, and the battleship is 80% intact."

"Report to Marshal, the Second Corps of Zeshui Corps has successfully captured the enemy ship Revenge, and the battleship's intact rate is 85%."

"Report to the Marshal, the First Corps of the Zeshui Army, has successfully captured the enemy's flagship Izumo, the battleship is 75% intact, and failed to capture the enemy's leader Stubbs Commons."

"Order the navy to press forward across the board. Be sure to ensure the safety of the three warships. Order the explorer fleet reserve to board the ship as soon as possible, do their best to repair it, and get familiar with the warship."

"Order Deputy Commander Zoe and Deputy Commander Karlov to lead the Bull Legion and the Fortress Legion to attack respectively, bite the opponent's ground troops tightly, and never let them merge with the water troops."

Commander Yong Ye's counterattack either didn't start, or if it did, it would definitely be a series of combined punches.

The city defense artillery of Jiangmen Port began to show its power on the front foot, and the infantry who rushed to board the battleship arrived on the back foot in a fast boat.

Immediately afterwards, the ten warships left by the Explorer Fleet in Jiangmen Port rushed up aggressively, and set up a defensive posture around the three Dreadnought-class sailing ships that had just been captured. It also prevents the East China Sea Fleet from coming back to its senses and retaking the battleship.

At the same time, the city gate of Jiangmen Port was wide open, and the two armies rushed out aggressively. With their backs against the city wall, they set up an army formation.

The East China Sea infantry headed by Captain Lina was still in a state of bewilderment, completely unaware of what was going on, and kept dispatching messengers to the river to investigate the situation.

Either these messengers failed to contact the command center of the East China Sea Fleet—at this time, the Izumo was already occupied, and Stubin, who had fled in a hurry, had not had time to inform the East China Sea Fleet of his location, let alone take the initiative to reveal his representative Flag of one's own identity.

Doing so made it easier for the East China Sea Fleet to contact him, but it also exposed his whereabouts to the Yong Ye army leader, which might attract the concentrated fire of the opponent's magical artillery.

Stubin was really frightened by the new weapon led by the Yong Ye army, and he would not dare to show his face for a while.

Or it brought back some news that Captain Lina couldn't believe.

For example, the three Dreadnought-class breeches of the East China Sea Fleet were captured and captured by the opponent.

For example, King Stubbs was captured by the leader of the Eternal Night Army.

It was obvious that they had an absolute advantage before, and both water and land advanced side by side, and Jiangmen Port was already in their pocket.

How could the situation be reversed in just one lunch?

But it is an indisputable fact that the entire East China Sea Fleet has fallen into chaos.

Under such circumstances, facing the infantry led by the Yong Ye Army who took the initiative to leave the city, Captain Lina did not dare to attack rashly.

Who knows if this is another trap set by the other party.

Captain Lina's cautious decision made her miss the last chance to counterattack, although the success rate of this counterattack opportunity is very small.

After the two armies led by the Yong Ye army formed an army formation outside Jiangmen Port, they no longer had any hope for the infantry.

In the following week, Captain Lina finally understood the true intention of the Yong Ye army leading these two legions.

They are like dog skin plasters, sticking to their backs firmly, not launching an attack, just following in step, but the East China Sea officer with a little military knowledge knows that the reason why the opponent did not attack is because the opponent thinks Not necessary.

If they try to get in touch with the water fleet of the East China Sea Fleet and board the ship to return, they will launch an attack without hesitation, the kind that spares no effort, including using their new ultra-long-range attack weapons.

During this week, they have fully experienced the power of this brand new weapon of the Eternal Night Commander.

The East China Sea Fleet on the Donau River was in a panic and had no resistance at all.

After the ten Polang-class warships led by the Yongye Army took up their posture on the Donau River, hundreds of ship-mounted cannons formed a firepower net, and the East China Sea Fleet was devastated.

Not to mention their magic shells, which have various special effects.

There were black field bombs during the day, which directly blinded the warships of the East China Sea Fleet.

At night, there are flares, illuminating the East China Sea Fleet without hiding anything. Coupled with the super night combat ability displayed by the soldiers of the Yong Ye Army, sneaking at night is nothing but self-inflicted humiliation.

Not to mention the freezing bombs.

It has become a nightmare for the East China Sea Fleet.

The greatest power of the freezing bomb does not lie in its direct killing, but in its subsidiary effects—its magical coldness has armor-piercing characteristics.

Even if those soldiers are hiding behind what they think is a thick deck, if they are near the landing point of the freezing bomb, the pervasive cold spell will turn them into ice sculptures before they can react.

Those soldiers who were frozen to death by the ice bombs usually had weird smiles on their faces.

So the frozen bomb has a new nickname in the mouths of soldiers in the East China Sea - the smile of death.

Even if the freezing bomb did not land on the battleship, it should not be underestimated.

Because if it falls upstream, it will turn into ice floes and impact their battleships.

If they land downstream of them, you have to be even more careful. This usually means that the boarding troops led by the Yongye Army are coming, and they are separated from other warships in this way, and they are ready to board the ship for battle.

In one week they had carried out three boarding operations in this way.

Every time was successful, following the Izumo, Queen and Revenge, seven warships from the East China Sea Fleet were captured by the Eternal Night Army.

When the soldiers in the East China Sea heard the smile of death, their scalps seemed to explode. They didn't know where to hide. Maybe in the next hour, their warships would change hands, and they would become prisoners.
