Chapter 132: When War Breaks Out, the Treasure Ship Flagship Explodes [1/5 Requires Automatic Subscription].

Together, the three fleets numbered nearly four hundred warships.

In the absence of the “radar” of Ulysses, the two sides did not finally discover each other’s existence until they met.

Longbottomton looked at the more than a hundred Imperial Rotisse Navy warships without the slightest hint of courtesy. Directly against the other two fleets was a banner to divide the enemy.

On the flagship of the Imperial Navy of Lotis, Admiral Andrew looked in shock at the sea steel monster that had no sails and was constantly swallowing smoke.

His eyes were filled with shock and confusion.

“Why is there such a fast speed without sails?”

Obviously, such a question was not answered by anyone at all.

Looking back at the Pruik naval fleet rapidly approaching them, Andrew immediately ordered the shipwrights to retreat. His goal is clear.

There is no direct confrontation with the Pluker Navy, but only when the other side organizes a harbor attack, it is stopped and harassed. Delay as long as possible.

However, if the Pluk Kingdom was still equipped with a fleet of treasure ships in the past, such tactics could play a certain role as long as they were properly commanded.

Andrew had no idea what a steam-powered ironclad ship represented. With the formation of Prücker’s three fleets unfolded.

In addition to the flagships in charge, each of the three fleets sent three ironclads, and a total of nine steam-sucking warships quickly broke away from the ranks and chased after the orderly withdrawal of the Lotis fleet.

“Marshal! They, they’re too fast! ”

Hearing the report from his men, Andrew, who was still looking at the map and thinking about where to counterattack the Pruuk fleet, frowned suddenly.

Then he hurried out of the command room and saw the nine steel warships that were constantly approaching in the distance. The look changed slightly, and he immediately gave the order.

“Full sail retreat!”

With the order given, and in a favorable wind direction, the speed of the Rothis Empire’s fleet immediately increased by one section. However, Andrew’s eyes were full of solemnity and shock at this moment.

In his line of sight, after the nine warships chasing this side in the distance let out a whimpering sound in unison, the gap between the two sides did not increase but decreased.

Looking at the increasingly clear Pruk Kingdom warship, Andrew finally realized that it was extremely dangerous. Order immediately.

“All warships combat position personnel ready! Bed crossbow, incendiary bomb ready! ”

As the order was conveyed through the flags, the Rottis sailors on top of the Imperial Lotis Navy, dressed in naval uniforms distinctly in the style of the Prussian style, ran out of the cabin.

Pushing or imitating the crossbow of the country, or originally purchased from the Pruuk Kingdom, it is the beginning of adjusting the angle and orientation one by one.

On the side of the Lotis Empire, the so-called incendiary bombs naturally did not have the original use of the Pluk Kingdom, and the Ulysses cocktail advanced crock pots, which were filled with fire oil, and the position of the bottle mouth was stuffed with a cloth strip and placed on the trebuchet.

The countries of the Holy West Continent, since the original Timesian Strait War, the exploration and innovation of naval equipment has begun.

However, their so-called innovations are much different from those of the Prussian Kingdom.

As the battleships were at full power, these Rothis Empire ships soon entered the range of the Prussian Navy.

As the hull accelerated closer, they began to turn their rudder to one side, revealing the side of the hull, and the rows of black hole hole caron cannons Andrew looked as if they were about to turn around and leave the Pluk Kingdom Navy, and did not wrinkle deeply.

Obviously they can catch up with them, why not chase them?

“Boom boom boom!”

Several successive roars came from a distance, and Andrew didn’t even understand what had happened.

Then I saw the side of the ship with billowing smoke billowing in the distance, and smoke erupted one by one.

“Boom!”

As if some black dot was flying towards this side, a sharp whistle smashed directly into the sea on the side of Andrew’s command flagship.

A huge explosion came from the surface of the sea, and the waves swept through the whole period in an instant. The cold sea water made Andrew instantly turn into a soup chicken.

“Aaaah! The ship is going to sink! ”

“What weapon is this?” Why are they able to attack us?! ”

The screams and cries of shock and trepidation made Andrew look back and turn his head to find that two wooden warships had been hit by each other in the dense convoy.

The huge explosion opened a large hole directly on the side of the hull.

A large amount of sea water was now frantically pouring into the hull, and the hull began to tilt rapidly in the screams of the navy above.

Apparently it was no longer saved.

“Marshal, they’re turning the hull again!”

The adjutant’s reminder startled Andrew, and then he saw the original side of the Prucker ship, quickly turned the hull again, and through the Z-shaped sailing route, the other side of the hull was exposed to everyone.

Looking at the muzzle of the black hole hole, Andrew thought of the terrible power just now, and suddenly felt creepy. Immediately shouted hysterically.

“Disperse! The fleet is scattered! Quick U-turn! ”

Filled with fear of the unknown, the adjutant quickly passed on Andrew’s orders.

Immediately, the entire Imperial Naval Fleet of the Lotis, as well as the warships that could still move, spread out to the sides and turned around. Looking at the rapid response of the Rhodeis Navy in the telescope, Longbottom, who commanded the First Fleet, nodded.

The on-site response ability of the opposing fleet commander was affirmed.

“However, with the gap between generations of weapons, even the most clever strategy is now in vain.”

Longbottom’s words are true.

Today, the navy of the Rothis Empire, after encountering the navy of the Kingdom of Pruuk, the result is already doomed. The powerful power of the steam-powered ironclads plus the Caron gun is a combination of sea guns and flowering shells.

Any wooden warship hit by the artillery of the Lotis Empire had no possibility of survival. However, the ironclad ships of the Prussian Kingdom are not without shortcomings today.

The accuracy of the artillery is not high, which is the disadvantage.

The two warships that had just hit and sank the opposing were entirely due to the dense arrangement of the opposing fleets. It is estimated that the Pluk Navy that fired the cannon did not expect to be able to fight straight.

In this case, Andrew, as the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Navy of Lotis, had only two options.

Or, disperse the formations and evacuate quickly, in the process being chased and sunk by the steam ironclads of the Pruk Kingdom. Or just like now.

While the combat effectiveness of the warships and the navy was still there, they dispersed their formations and turned back to counterattack. The results won’t really make much difference.

After all, the Karon cannon is not accurate when it is far away, and it is simply a living target when it is close.

“Boom!”

As the battleships on the side of the Rothis Empire got closer, the nine ironclad ships of the Prussian Kingdom immediately opened fire.

With a loud roar, a round of flowering shells was fired, followed by a fierce hit on the warship that rushed to the front. Either it exploded directly above the deck or exploded on the side of the hull.

……

Some of the unfortunate shells smashed directly through the wooden floor and exploded in the cabin.

“Boom!”

“Clean the gun chamber!”

“Cool the barrel!”

“Stuff in the shells!”

“Compact the shells!”

“Stuff in the ignition core!”

“Fire the cannon”

One artillery with four or five members of the artillery team, at this moment this set of actions is carried out smoothly.

The faces of these Prussian Navys were full of happiness and excitement, and some of them were grinning in their mouths.

“Let’s all go to the sea and feed the fish, damn Lotis bastard!”

When these people graduated from the Naval Academy, they were sent to the Golden Island, and then they became the first navies on ironclads, and the daily training subjects were in addition to daily training.

It is to control the artillery and look for icebergs in the vast white ice ocean for shelling training. Those who knew the power of artillery were already eager for a real war at sea.

Now this naval battle with the Rottis Empire has directly become the only show for their ironclad ships.

Above the flagship of the Prussian Navy, Andrew himself had come to the position of the deck, pulled out his Admiral Sabre, and waved it with a hissing voice.

The flagship was ordered to take the lead in the charge, however, the treasure ship powered by the sails under the headwind was also subject to many restrictions at this moment. Finally.

“Boom!”

When a shell slashed an arc over the heads of the crowd and landed on the stern of Andrew’s flagship, the entire ship exploded and shook violently.

Andrew was careless, almost did not fall off the ship, or the adjutant on the side of the eyes of the fast, a pull on the other side. However, without waiting for Andrew to be helped to stand up.

Another huge explosion came, and the soaring water column instantly cleaned the entire hull.

Some of the Prussian soldiers slipped to their feet and, directly in the cries of fear, rowed straight out of the gap on the side of the hull, and fell into the sea, struggling with difficulty.

“Marshal, what should we do now?” Those guys in Prucker didn’t get too close to us at all, and we chased them back! If we continue like this, we’re all doomed!” ”

The adjutant anxiously inquired about Andrew’s response.

However, at this moment, Andrew’s mind is not 3.9 is quickly thinking about how to cope. The sea breeze blew, and he couldn’t help but shiver at the moment, his voice trembling.

“Jean, let the left wing, no, let the Sea Lion, plus the Lockhamp, lead ten warships, detour from the right wing, and they turn the hull, and surely that kind of weapon cannot be aimed at a frontal attack. We…..”

“Marshal, the Lockhamp mast has been broken, they have lost power!”

The adjutant interrupted.

Andrew’s face suddenly became more and more ugly, and he turned his head to look in one direction, and sure enough, among the fleet, one of the treasure ships, the Lockhamp, was now at sea, and the high mast with the sail fell on the sea.

A famous navy member on board is struggling to save himself.

“Boom!”

Just as Andrew’s brain was in chaos, an explosion struck again.

As a fierce burst of fire came from the hull of the Sea Lion on the other side, the shells of the Prussia Kingdom hit the fire oil, and the flames instantly swept through the entire Sea Lion hull.

Watch the Rothis Imperial Navy jump into the sea with flames burning all over its body. Andrew was completely confused.

“Well, why is this war?”
