Starting From Zero

Chapter 258 Rushing Into the Pit

The first thing Poseidon did after entering the water was to release his pet, the sea squid. {

Poseidon's sea squids are not just one or two, but a large group, and they are all monster-level ones. The abilities of these guys are terrifying. Unlike octopuses, squids have shells and are very protective, and their parrot-like mouths can cut steel plates like tofu. Any warship will be like tofu in front of these mouths.

The purpose of Poseidon is to drive away the warships of the US-Russian combined fleet, not to sink them. In fact, her squids can only play a little role. After all, the U.S.-Russian combined fleet also has its own underwater defense force, so the U.S.-Russian combined fleet will not be directly sunk by these sea squids. They are just After discovering an impact front here, he was quite surprised and instinctively began to slow down.

Because the Frozen Banshee is in the command module, she cannot see the situation outside. The location where she and the Gunslinger are now is actually not among any battleships of the US-Russia Combined Fleet. They have been frozen since they were attacked by me before. The Banshee and the Gunslinger moved to the submarine together. That's right, they were in a submarine rather than a battleship, and in a naval battle of this scale, as long as the submarine didn't rush forward, it was basically relatively safe until the fleet was finished.

The Frozen Banshee and the Gunslinger stay here not because they are afraid of death, but because they know that the fleet needs command now, and staying here can allow the fleet to maintain its overall combat effectiveness to the maximum extent. Otherwise, if they both die at the same time, . The US-Russian combined fleet is likely to split. After all, Americans and Russian players are not so friendly.

Precisely because the Frozen Banshee and the Gunslinger were both in the submarine, they could not see the situation outside. The information they got so far was the information seen by the battleship directly above them. There is a special communication device on that battleship that can communicate with the Frozen Banshee in the submarine. Although the distance is not far, it can still meet the needs as long as the submarine does not run around.

According to the information reported by the ships above, the Frozen Banshee quickly discovered that the fleet's course and speed were wrong, so he questioned loudly. The personnel above quickly replied to her that a large number of sea monsters were approaching them in the southwest, and the warships in the fleet had to turn northwest in order to meet the enemy.

This kind of thing is actually easy to understand. The warships in the US-Russian combined fleet are all modern warships, and even they are sailing warships. The strongest firepower is also the side. Therefore, when facing a battle, you can use the side of the battleship to face the enemy to maximize your firepower. Those squids cannot attack from a distance, and they are floating on the sea and sprinting. In this case, the US-Russian combined fleet must completely ignore those warships. Otherwise, if you want to attack, you can only turn northwest. Then point the broadside to the southwest. Only in this way can the maximum firepower be exerted.

However, although this turn itself is not a problem, the problem now is that the US-Russian combined fleet is moving southwest. The purpose was to deviate from the course and not pass through the sea near the island. However, in order to meet the enemy, they had to adjust their course to the northwest, so that they would approach the island.

When the Frozen Banshee discovered this situation, the fleet had already begun to turn. In a normal naval battle, after discovering the enemy, you should first report to your superiors and ask what to do, but the problem is that the command system of the naval battle in the game is not as good as that in modern naval battles. The command systems on those battleships are so powerful, and because we are always sniping the Frozen Banshee and Gunslinger, they have to hide in the submarine, and the information needs to be relayed through surface ships, so that It becomes more troublesome. Therefore, in order to ensure quick response during battle, the Frozen Banshee deliberately delegated command authority, allowing the captains of each battleship to make their own decisions without destroying the overall formation of the fleet.

It was because of this independent decision that the captains unanimously decided to turn right. After all, the enemy was coming. It was a normal and standard tactic to aim at the enemy with the broadside. There was almost nothing controversial about it, so they did it without thinking. Started turning immediately.

In fact, speaking of this wrong order, these captains cannot be blamed, nor can we blame the Frozen Banshee and the Gunslinger. Those captains' orders were based on tactical maneuvers, so they were right. The orders of the Frozen Banshee and the Gunslinger were based on battle operations, so they were right. Their fault lay in the disjointed command. The Frozen Banshee and the others did not convey their intentions to the captains in detail. After all, the command system of the US-Russia Combined Fleet is very backward. They can only simply transfer commands related to tactics. There is no way to explain everything clearly like us by communicating and chatting.

Because of this situation, the US-Russian combined fleet took a completely wrong path this time. The battleship's turn was already very slow, and now that the entire fleet was turning, it was naturally even slower. Even if they adjusted back now, they would not be able to avoid the sea area near the island in front of them.

"Very good, the other side is starting to turn, Poseidon, come on, drive them into the ambush circle." Watching the US-Russian combined fleet below begin to turn, I loudly cheered Poseidon on the communicator.

Poseidon did not answer my words underwater, but only increased his control over the ocean. Those in the US-Russian joint fleet did not realize that the seawater around their warships was actually not normal anymore. The seawater was pushing these warships. In the direction of which island to move. However, although Poseidon can control the sea water, because there are too many enemy warships, she cannot pull them all over at once. She can only form a force field near each warship to steer their course as far as possible. Side pull.

The Frozen Banshee and the Gunslinger, like other players, did not notice the abnormality in the sea water at first. They were busy correcting the course at this time. Because the fleet has already turned right, turning back at this time will not only rush directly into the squid group, but also cause the fleet to crash into the dangerous sea area. Therefore, after a minute of simple consultation, they came up with a method. , that is, let the fleet continue to turn right and then go north.

Because the fleet has already begun to turn right, it can quickly turn its course to true north as long as the status quo is maintained. In this case. The fleet needs to head upward and wait until it exceeds the dimension of the sea area where the island is located before turning left and drawing an inverted U-shaped turn to bypass the sea area near the island. Although this would increase the voyage distance a lot, they had no choice but to do this in order to avoid that unsafe place.

Although the plan of the Frozen Banshee and the Gunslinger was generally good, they soon discovered anomalies.

Poseidon now has the entire Chaos and Order Protoss behind her to give her pure divine power. The power is of course very powerful. Therefore, when the bow of the US-Russian combined fleet pointed at the island and wanted to continue turning right, there seemed to be no reaction.

At first, the Frozen Banshee and the Gunslinger didn't pay attention. After sailing for a few minutes, check the chart for updates. I found that I was still heading straight towards the island, something was obviously wrong.

"What happened? Why are we still heading towards the island? Didn't we ask you to turn right?"

"It's not our fault. The ship has full right rudder, but the steering speed is very slow. It seems that the ocean current is pushing us towards the island."

"How could this happen?" Suddenly hearing such an answer, the gunman was immediately at a loss.

Compared to the Gunslinger. After being surprised for a while, the Frozen Banshee suddenly stared at the Gunslinger and asked, "Could it be a water forbidden spell?"

"Are you talking about legion-level spells?" The Gunslinger didn't come from the mountains. Of course you know what the forbidden curse is. However, he immediately hesitated after answering: "Shouldn't it? We have two thousand battleships here! How much power would it take to forcefully use magic to reverse our course? Besides, we really need to have that kind of strength . Wouldn’t it be more cost-effective to just use a large-scale offensive forbidden spell to destroy one-fifth of our fleet?”

The Frozen Banshee thought it made sense when she heard what the Gunslinger said, but after a Russian player said something in her ear, she suddenly woke up. "Damn it, why did you forget this!"

"What did you say you forgot?" The Gunslinger looked at the Frozen Banshee in confusion.

The Frozen Banshee explained: "Poseidon. That great god of the Olympus Protoss, you don't know about it, right?"

Since the Holy Spear Alliance plans to fight us to the death, he naturally needs to know the information about our guild, so he naturally knows what power our guild has. The Frozen Banshee was pointed out directly now, so of course he immediately thought of that possibility. "You mean Poseidon used his water control to grab our fleet and drag us in that direction?"

The Frozen Banshee nodded and said: "It should be his power, but I don't think it can drag us over. The most he can do is forcefully reverse our course and make us lose steering. But even this is very serious for us. problem."

"Then how do we crack it?"

"Let me think about it!" The Frozen Banshee frowned and thought for a moment, then realized that there seemed to be no way to solve this situation. Their fleet is now aimed in the direction of the island, and Poseidon's power is roughly the same as the turning power of their warships. In other words, if they and Poseidon use their force in opposite directions, the warships will It will maintain the current heading and cannot turn. So, if they can't turn, all they can do is move forward or backward.

If they advance, they will eventually enter the sea area near the island, and if they retreat, they do not need to enter that area, but their ultimate goal is to complete the landing near the Chinese coastline, so if they retreat, the landing time will be extended, and our side The fleet's long-range bombardment has never stopped. In the process, their warships are constantly being lost. The longer the time drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for them. Therefore, retreating is actually less feasible.

After considering the pros and cons of all aspects, the Frozen Banshee finally gritted her teeth and said: "Notify all ships, forget about the propellers, move forward at full speed, even if the engine burns out, it will be fine, drive towards the island, and rush over at assault speed. .”

"Ah?" The Gunslinger didn't expect that the Frozen Banshee would actually issue such an order after weighing it for a long time, and immediately stopped him: "Are you crazy? It is clear that the ambush circle of the Frost Rose Alliance is ahead. Shouldn't we rush forward at this time? Are you looking for death?"

"No, the front is the only hope." The Frozen Banshee briefly explained her speculation to the Gunslinger, but the Gunslinger just frowned and said nothing, and finally decided to follow the Frozen Banshee's arrangements, because he also understood , they no longer have a choice. If you retreat, you will die, but if you advance, there may be hope.

Soon after the orders from the US-Russia Combined Fleet were issued, we noticed their changes. Zhenhong put down the telescope and shouted to me: "Boss, they are speeding up."

"I knew they would definitely do this." After I finished speaking, I picked up the communicator and said, "Poseidon, let's start the second step."

Underwater is Poseidon's home court. Of course she knows that the opponent's warship is accelerating, and she has revoked control of the opponent's warship at this time. Although the control method just now can temporarily suppress the steering ability of the US-Russian combined fleet, it is actually very difficult for Poseidon. Now that they no longer plan to run away, she naturally doesn't need to continue competing with them.

After stopping controlling the opponent's course, Poseidon began to gather his divine power, waiting for the enemy to enter the sea near the island. After all, this large-scale magical power consumes too much and cannot be used casually. It must be gathered first. While the enemy is heading towards the designated area, gather energy in advance so that you won't be in a hurry when the time comes.

Of course, the Frozen Banshee and the others didn't know that the fleet could actually turn. After all, the battleship itself had no feelings. They were just rushing forward according to the order. Therefore, Poseidon completed the energy gathering work without the U.S.-Russian combined fleet's complete knowledge, and one-third of the U.S.-Russian combined fleet's warships have entered the target sea area.

"Poseidon, you can start the third step." After seeing the position of the US-Russian combined fleet, I reminded him again, and Poseidon immediately released his magic.

Under the originally dim sunset, the U.S.-Russian combined fleet was moving at full speed, but a large number of dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky, and there were more and more of them. Although this time zone was actually only about five o'clock in the afternoon, the sky changed within a few minutes. It became pitch black.

Click, click, bang... A winding electric snake streaked across the space, as if it was the prelude to a stage play. The originally calm sea suddenly became violently windy, and the waves undulated like walls. The lightning in the sky began to flash in crisscrosses, and from time to time, thick lightning pillars hit the sea surface, forming a large blue flash in the water.

"Damn it, I knew there was a trap here. Ziri wouldn't let us reach their lair so smoothly!" The Gunslinger couldn't help but complain after learning about the changes outside. (To be continued, please search, the novel will be better and updated faster!
