Chapter 144 The Naval Battle Begins
In the naval fleet, twelve naval warships are arranged in an oval formation, and in the middle are four huge cargo ships, which are not carrying gold in the sky, but four powerful bombs.
All the lights of the entire fleet were turned on, like a ribbon of light, so dazzling on the dark sea, this huge fleet could be seen from miles away.
And outside the fleet, hundreds of light spots appeared, surrounding the fleet. Looking down from a high altitude, one could see an elliptical aperture surrounded by a little bit of light.
On the warship, all the sailors were sticking to their posts, holding their weapons tightly and staring at the pirate ship that was only a little light not far away, and their palms were already sweating a little.
Although everyone knew that there were many pirates before they left, they didn't expect that there were hundreds of pirates, which was ten times as many as naval warships.
Facing so many people, which navy is not nervous, but seeing the vice admirals standing on the ship, everyone couldn't help but calm down. Even if there are many pirates, but with the combat power of these vice admirals, it is useless to rely on the strength of these pirates.
As time goes by, the distance between the pirate ship and the warship is getting closer and closer. The cannon that has been prepared for a long time, as soon as it enters the range, there is a huge roar, and the huge muzzle spews out streaks of orange. firelight.
bang bang bang...
A deafening sound echoed over the entire battlefield, and the calm sea suddenly became noisy, and a huge naval battle began.
Countless black cannonballs instantly disappeared into the black night sky under the huge impetus of the explosion of the explosives, only the harsh sound of the cannonballs rubbing against the air came from high above.
In the dark night, not only was the accuracy of the shelling much worse, but also the black shells blended into the night, making it difficult to avoid. All the navy and pirates were trying their best to hit all the shells on the opponent's ship as quickly as possible.
Shelling in this environment is very unfavorable to the navy, which is extremely inferior in number, although the navy is well-trained. But under the difference of ten times the ship, no matter how superb artillery skills are, it is useless.
Shhhhhhh...
Some skilled gunners in the navy, when they heard the sound of these extremely close piercings, instantly identified the positions of these shells. He rushed to the side and shouted loudly.
"The shells are coming, dodge and dodge".
But not waiting for the navy to evade,
A figure appeared on the deck, and the sword light flashed. There were several bangs, and several explosions sounded on both sides of the ship, and the orange-red flames illuminated the entire deck brightly.
In order to reduce the probability of being hit by shells and achieve the purpose of attracting pirates, all warships, including those transport ships, turned off all the lights that could be extinguished.
"Vice Admiral Mole," the navy couldn't help exclaiming happily when they saw the figure chopping up the shells.
With a swish, another flash of cold light flashed, and the few shells that flew were chopped into pieces again. There were several deafening explosions, and the powerful air wave directly knocked down several unprepared naval soldiers to the ground.
"You continue to fire, I will block these shells," Lieutenant General Mole shouted.
"Yes!" The lieutenant general has already made a move, so what else do we need to worry about? With the concerted efforts of all the navies, the stopped naval guns on the warship roared again, and the continuous firing was much faster than before.
This scene happened on all naval warships, although the number of the navy is at a disadvantage this time. But Marshal Warring States had already expected this scene, so he sent all the elite generals of the Navy headquarters, hoping to offset the gap in numbers with elites.
For these naval headquarters generals, they have already mastered domineering. Blocking these shells in the dark can still be done easily.
There are too many pirates. As soon as the sea battle started, hundreds of pirate ships fired together, and there were too many shells.
The accuracy of the pirate's shelling was poor, but with so many shells, many shells hit the hull. The admiral had no choice but to protect the warship, otherwise the warship would be destroyed by shells before the pirates approached.
The rest of the missed shells all fell into the sea water, making a dull sound, and the orange-red fire flashed under the sea surface, and the whole sea surface was brightened under the orange-red fire light.
The shock waves generated by countless explosions raged under the sea surface, and the calm sea surface suddenly boiled. The waves several meters high hit the ship's wall continuously, and even the huge naval warship swayed under the waves.
Many weaker naval soldiers could only stabilize themselves by holding on to nearby objects. Faced with this situation, everyone tried their best to stick to their posts, and the cannons were still roaring.
The pirates on the opposite side were not so good. The accuracy of naval shelling was not comparable to these weak pirates. Under the first wave of naval shelling, several pirate ships were hit.
These pirates seem to be numerous, but most of them are the bottom pirates in the great route. The highest bounty in most pirate groups is only 20 to 30 million. How can there be any masters in the pirate group? Who can stop the shells.
This kind of pirate group originally didn't have the strength to participate in the competition for gold in the sky, and they knew what level it was, but under Brother Ming's instigation, these pirates thought that they were a very powerful force when they united, and they would definitely be able to bring these navies back to the sky. The rest of the pirates are dealt with, and finally the gold in the sky is them.
But among the navy and powerful pirates, they are just cannon fodder, and the function of cannon fodder is to consume the opponent's strength and push the entire battlefield to chaos.
"Little ones, speed up and rush up. Now we are at the forefront. The naval combat power has been involved in the new world. The navy above is very weak. Go up and kill those navies. That great wealth is ours."
On a pirate ship, the captain held up the golden hook on his right hand and said with a frantic face, the faces of the pirates below were also filled with madness.
"Bang bang...!"
Several explosions sounded, the smoke cleared, and the pirate ship had turned into pieces of wreckage of various sizes floating on the sea surface, and those pirates that survived the explosion could only float on the sea surface.
The pirate ship that comes from behind will not be so merciful, it doesn't matter if there are people in front of you, it directly hits these pirates in the water, this scene is happening in a corner of the entire battlefield.
Looking at the four huge transport ships protected by the navy, all the pirates went crazy. No one knows how much wealth such a large transport ship can hold, but as long as there is a little bit, there is no need to worry in this life.
Outside the encirclement, the sixteen pirate ships landed at the rear, and did not shell, just quietly watching the spectacular scene of hundreds of cannons firing together.
Most of these are the first half of Megatron’s great route, the truly powerful pirates, each with a bounty of more than 100 million, but they still stay in the first half for some reason and have not entered the new world, but their strength is beyond doubt.
"The clown did a good job this time. Although these garbage are not very strong, they are gathered together as cannon fodder, and they really caused a lot of trouble for the navy," a big man said rudely, biting a roasted leg in his hand.
Then he turned his head, glanced at a man next to him, and asked loudly: "Military division, do you see anything now?"
The man nodded, retracted his gaze, and said in thought: "The clown's information is not wrong. The accuracy of these naval bombardments is much higher than those we usually encounter. Moreover, so many shells did not hit a single naval warship. All have powerful admirals."
"It seems that the naval reinforcements did come last night, and it was the elite of the Navy headquarters who came. We have to be careful this time."
snort! The big man snorted heavily, "Of course, I have 10 million Baileys. If the clown dares to lie to me, I will definitely not spare him with the hammer in my hand. Others are afraid of him as a clown, but I am not afraid of him."
After finishing speaking, the big man glanced at the naval warship surrounded by pirates, and said in a deep voice, "So what if the elite from the headquarters are here."
Glancing at the pirates next to him, he continued: "Almost all the powerful pirates have come in the first half. As long as there is no admiral's combat power, the vice admiral can't stop us at all."
There was a sound of swish, a white cold light flashed, and then two explosions sounded in the sky. The man put away the long sword in his hand with a blank expression and said, "No matter what, we'd better be careful."
"Okay, let's listen to the military adviser for such useless matters, anyway, I will just fight when the time comes," the man touched his head and said with a smile. (To be continued.)
