Chapter 745 Battle Spells
With invisible blades flying around, no soldier could muster up the courage to rush out of the cabin and put them down.
Although the ten mine-breaking warships lined up were not sunk, they became new obstacles, blocking the main route of the East China Sea Fleet's retreat.
After receiving the previous battle report, Stubin just twitched his cheeks, and said without hesitation: "Put down the sails, all the warships put down the sails, and walk along the river. Continue to send the warships up and push them forward."
This is using ten mine-breaking warships as a shield.
The trump card that I have carefully prepared is ruined by just one face-to-face, and no one will look good.
It's just that now is obviously not the time to be distressed, they have to grit their teeth and rush forward, even if they know that there are many traps ahead, they will not hesitate.
Stubin now has such a clear understanding, and other members of the East China Sea Fleet also have this clear understanding.
It's just that the Dragon Roar led by Xiao En will naturally not miss this opportunity to hit a fixed target.
Soon the Dragon Roar's third and fourth rounds of bombardment arrived.
By the time the East China Sea Fleet adjusted and pushed the mine-breaking warships forward, there were only seven ships left, and most of the other three had sunk.
Among the seven ships, half of them were badly damaged and were about to sink.
Earthquake bombs, ground spike bombs.
Tear bombs, wind blade bombs.
Flares, blinding bombs.
Pulse bombs, sonic bombs.
Fire bombs, wall bombs.
Black field bomb, black contact bomb.
Freeze bombs, ice cone bombs.
As the East China Sea Fleet entered the white mist area, Dragon Roar's various special artillery shells and upgraded special artillery shells were thrown away for free.
From the beginning to the end, the Dragon Roar didn't even move its position, but it was unrealistic to speculate on the Dragon Roar's position through the trajectory.
The mirage originating from the spitting mirage python is brilliant, and the illusion created by it is a mixture of true and false.
Not to mention the explosion effect of magic shells, even those battleships in the white mist area can be simulated by illusion.
Those who entered the mirage together with them may not necessarily be their friendly ships after a while, and before they knew it, the distance between the two sides had been distanced, replaced by the projection transformed by the mirage.
True and false, it is really very difficult to distinguish when the line of sight is severely blocked.
It's just that the Dragon Roar is a single battleship after all, even with the help of Mirage, its delaying and killing effect on a super fleet composed of thousands of warships of various types is limited after all.
Half a day later, the main force of the East China Sea Fleet rushed out of the Donau River one after another and rushed into the fog.
The area of fog created by Xiao En relying on the Dragon Roar far exceeds the imagination of the East China Sea Fleet.
When they were on the Donau River, they could still tell the direction to some extent.
Although they cannot see far away, the current of the river will carry them into the sea.
But when you are on the sea, there is no such obvious sign.
All the warships of the East China Sea Fleet became blind and could only ram around, including the Gray Goose where Stubin was.
"Your Majesty, something is wrong. We have been driving for more than an hour, and we can run at least fifteen nautical miles, but the fog is still endless. I have never heard of any spell that has such a large coverage area." Lina Fleet Chang said with a gloomy face, "Are we going to keep spinning?"
"Spin?" Stubin's heart skipped a beat, he looked up at Fengfan and said, "Could it be that the other party still has the ability to control the direction of the wind?"
"Since the opponent has the ability to create thick fog and control the wind, what's so strange?" Captain Lina asked back.
"It is indeed possible. In this way, the wind is not trustworthy. Put down the sails and follow the ocean current. No matter how powerful the opponent's magic is, it is impossible to change the direction of the ocean current." Stubbs quickly came up with a new idea .
"Put down the sails, all warships will follow the ocean current, pay attention to keep the distance between the ships."
"Put down the sails, all warships will follow the ocean current, pay attention to keep the distance between the ships."
There were shouts one after another on the sea.
The psychedelic white fog directly abolished the most commonly used way of transmitting information at sea - semaphore.
Can only switch to this backward mode.
At present, Baiwu only shows the effect of hallucinations, not to the extent of auditory hallucinations.
The East China Sea Fleet is large enough, and the distance between the warships is not particularly wide. The sound can be transmitted through each ship, but the efficiency is not ideal.
Such a situation made Stubin feel uneasy again.
In this special environment, even though he knew that he had a numerical advantage, he still felt helpless, as if the enemy would rush out of the white mist at any time. As time went by, his nerves became tense involuntarily, every minute Seconds are a torment.
"Enemy ship, found the enemy fleet."
"Fire! Fire! Boom it, smash it."
After drifting with the ocean current for half an hour, all the soldiers on the Gray Goose felt their eyes brighten and the fog dissipated.
A row of new-style warships unique to the Eternal Night Army Leader lay in front of them.
The soldiers were chilled at first, but they found that the distance between the two sides was not too far, and they had already entered the effective range of the Gray Goose Catapult, and they became excited again.
Many gunners couldn't bear it anymore, and fired without waiting for the order from above.
During the three weeks of being trapped on the Donau River, not only the high-level officials like Stubbing were suffocated, but the soldiers below were no exception.
The most irritating thing about the Eternal Night Army's fleet is that they always hide far away from their range and ravage them with artillery fire.
Now that he has finally entered the range, he can't let go of the anger in his heart.
There are often chain reactions on the battlefield.
When one gunner fires, most of the surrounding gunners will follow suit.
And the Gray Goose is the current flagship of the East China Sea Fleet. When it fires, it will naturally attract the fire of other warships around it.
Immediately, the roar of black powder explosion resounded across the sea, and gunpowder smoke rose everywhere.
"Hit, hit, haha... These guys only look powerful, but in fact, as long as they get closer, they are vulnerable, haha..."
"We also sank one, turn the guns, turn the guns, they want to run, don't give them a chance to escape."
The results of the East China Sea Fleet headed by the Gray Goose are very obvious. Thousands of shells smashed down at the same time. Even a mountain can be leveled, let alone dozens of warships.
Half of them were sunk in just one round of shelling.
Let the morale of the entire East China Sea Fleet flourish.
The fleet led by the Yongye army was not good at it either, and soon launched a counterattack, also smashing down thousands of shells.
"Your Majesty, hurry up and order a ceasefire, hurry up and order a ceasefire, the situation is not right." Captain Lina shouted at Stubin, with an unconcealable horror on her face.
"What's wrong?" Stubbs, who was still immersed in the sudden victory, didn't react for a while.
"Number of warships." Captain Lina hastily reported the abnormal situation he observed, "The number of warships intercepted by the Yongye Army Leader at sea does not exceed thirty. This number, the opponent is still counterattacking, and there is no significant decrease, not to mention the power and accuracy of the shells, this is not like the magic cannons of the Yongye Army Commander, it is more like the shells fired by our ballista."
"Damn it, we fell for the trap." Stubbing said with a sudden change of color, "We didn't rush out of the white mist, what we see now is the illusion that the other party wants us to see, order all warships Stay away from the battlefield and stop the firefight."
The semaphore on the Gray Goose shook wildly. Except for the reply from the slightly closer battleship, the farther battleship seemed to have disappeared, and the sound of shelling continued one after another.
This result made Stubbin's viscera tremble, which proved in disguise that they were still in the white mist with the hallucination effect of the Yong Ye Army Commander.
If the one who exchanged fire with them was not the leader of the Yongye Army fleet, who is it that they are fighting with them now?
Is it the East China Sea Fleet separated by the white mist? Or their rescue fleet?
No matter which one it was, Stubin couldn't even imagine the consequences.
"Cease fire, all warships cease fire, the opposite is not the enemy, this is a trap created by the enemy with white mist, all warships cease fire!"
In desperation, Stubin could only adopt the mode of shouting again.
But this time the effect was very pale.
How can a human voice overwhelm the roar of countless shell explosions?
Not to mention, such an order seemed incredible to most sailors.
After all, the opponent's attack has never stopped. If you stop attacking on your own side, isn't it just waiting to be beaten?
Everything has been completely messed up because of that fog.
This sudden encounter lasted for a full hour, and finally died down because of the dissipation of the fog.
"Cease fire, everyone stop shelling! Idiots, I ordered you to stop shelling, didn't you hear?"
"Oh my god, what did we just do? That's not the Eternal Night Army's fleet at all, it's our battleship!"
The two warring parties finally saw each other's appearance clearly, and everyone was stunned.
On one side is the East China Sea Fleet led by Stubin, and on the other is the East China Sea State Rescue Fleet led by Prince Layton.
Before this, both sides believed that it was the fleet led by the Yongye Army who exchanged fire with them.
It's not that no one, like Captain Lena, sensed that something was wrong and tried to stop the exchange of fire or withdraw from the battle voluntarily.
It's just that fighting is not a one-sided thing. The sea battle where thousands of warships confront each other is also different from ordinary wars.
It is easy to turn over the fire, but it is not so easy to want a truce.
Not to mention that during this process, Sean's Dragon Roar has been watching with cold eyes. When he finds that the flames of war are a little bit extinguished, he will immediately pour a little oil on it to make it burn more intensely.
In the sea area where the two sides are fighting, hundreds of warships are burning and sinking.
"It's really Layton, it's really Layton, it's really Layton!" Although he had already guessed in advance, when he found out that the warship that was fighting them was not the battleship led by the Yongye Army, but came from thousands of miles away. When rescuing their rescue fleet, Stubbing's face was still pale, and he felt that his heart had been repeatedly stabbed with countless knives, and he was no longer bleeding, but bleeding crazily.
Their East China Sea Fleet was besieged and eaten away by Yong Ye's army leader for three weeks, and the total number of warships lost was less than half of what they lost in the one-hour battle just now.
Again, the water strength of the Yong Ye army leader is still too weak, and there is no way to cause fatal damage to them.
On the contrary, it was a confrontation with the rescue fleet led by Prince Leighton. The bases of both sides were large enough to get together in the small waters, and it was difficult to distinguish the enemy's situation. The casualties were astonishing.
Not to mention, the whole process is to beat yourself up.
Knowing this earlier, why did he ask Prince Layton for help?
Back then, it was enough to rush out of the Donau River regardless of losses. At that time, even in the face of the blockade of the Yongye Army's leading fleet, there would be no more casualties than now.
Not to mention the series of calculations behind Zhongyong Ye's army leader.
But there is no regret medicine in this world for Stubin to take, even if his intestines are green now.
"How did this happen? How did this happen? How did this happen?" Prince Layton was also patted on the side of the battleship, looking at the East China Sea Fleet, his eyes almost popped out.
Before this, from top to bottom, they didn't realize that there was a problem in this naval battle.
Because they have been fighting guerrillas with the explorer fleet led by the Yongye army.
At the end of the fight, the number of shells in the explorer fleet was a bit insufficient, and the situation reversed, turning into a rescue fleet led by Prince Layton, chasing and intercepting them, and rushing after them.
From the beginning to the end, I have never seen the psychedelic white mist, so naturally I will not be on guard.
The confrontation between the two fleets was naturally carefully planned by the leader of Yong Ye.
It is just to lead the two fleets into waters where the identity of the other side cannot be identified, and make both sides mistakenly think that the other side is the Yong Ye army leading the fleet to fire.
It's easy to say.
It is very difficult to implement.
It is not only necessary to grasp the opponent's pace, but also requires the cooperation of the opponent in decision-making.
The former is much better, and the leader of Yong Ye can also actively promote and adjust the opponent's pace through his best coordinated combat, so that they can follow their own wishes.
In addition to artificial promotion, the latter also has a lot of luck in it.
If he thinks that Stubin thinks the timing of the breakout is inappropriate, or thinks that this is another trap prepared by the leader of the Yongye army, he will stand still on the Donau River.
Or maybe Prince Layton didn't cling to the explorer fleet, and chose to wait and see at sea more steadily, waiting to get in touch with Stubbs before taking action and so on.
No matter what kind of decision, it will promote the failure of this trap.
But in the world, there is such an inch thing.
Although the father and son of Donghai Kingdom didn't read the script prepared by the leader of Yongye, in terms of pace, they completely followed the script of the leader of Yongye, which was even better than acting.
If he did it all over again, Sean didn't have the confidence to achieve the effect in front of him.
Just less than five nautical miles from the battle between the two sides, the Dragon Roar, the instigator, floated quietly at the mouth of the Donau River, and the explorer fleet was neatly lined up on the Donau River behind it.
They were just watching coldly, and didn't intend to take the initiative to attack.
It's not that they don't want to take the opportunity to beat the dog in the water, but that the number of shells carried by the explorer fleet is indeed running low. Although it is not as short as it was previously shown, it is not enough to support them in another naval battle. event.
The same is true of the Dragon Roar.
Why didn't Xiao En want to maintain the existence of the psychedelic white mist until one of the two fleets of the East China Sea was destroyed.
But this kind of large-scale mirage, especially the kind of large-scale illusion that makes the other party mistakenly see the fleet led by the Eternal Night Army, requires a terrifying amount of magic power.
