Vol 8 Chapter 298: The speed of life in the battle of Sarros

At the same time as he finished the order, he let the flagship immediately turn the hull, as an example, facing the Danion fleet and speeding up.

After seeing the warships around them, they quickly made corresponding moves, but for the distant Carthage ships, they first heard the retreat of the military, and soon they changed to attack. The sound, the two opposite commands made them wonder.

This is a newly formed fleet. Although most of the crew members survived the storm after the previous Carthage fleet, it has been reorganized after all. One of the biggest problems is despite Admiral. The card once expressed strong opposition, but with the support of the Senate, Annobas mixed the survivors of the previous Carthage Fleet and the Iberian fleet and assigned them to each new warship. First, all the warships have unified command of the navy commander, and there is no longer any independent Iberian fleet.

So when the new fleet had not rushed into the battlefield, they had not yet formed a good obedience to the new fleet commander (for the Iberian crew, Annobis was strange. ), the usual patrols and voyages still do not show up, but in times of crisis, the problems are exposed: some warships are hesitant to implement this later order.

And just as the Carthage Fleet caused inconsistency and chaos because of two orders, the attack of the 3rd Fleet of the Dionia continued to reveal its power, and the crow warship opened like a hammer. The outer shell, followed by the fast three-layer paddle battleship, their narrow hulls shuttled quickly in the narrow circular array of interior space, as flexible as a fish, but after the discovery of the aircraft, they became Fierce sharks, smashing the oars of enemy ships, smashing their hulls, making the somewhat chaotic Carthage shipyard more chaotic...

At this point in time, some of the Carthaginian warships were not well understood and began to withdraw from the battlefield.

Speaking of the original fleet of 190 ships in the Carthage New Fleet, after arriving in Sardinia, they merged into 40 warships originally belonging to the Phoenician city state of Sardinia. The total number of warships reached 230. After Nobs developed this plan, the new fleet was almost equally divided: in order to ensure that the ship that was in charge of the ambush in the open sea and commanded by Admiralka could resist the attack of the Dionian ship, forming a complete melee. The situation can persist until the fleet he personally led to form a two-sided attack (because Annobis believes that if the premature rush to the battlefield, the Diaonia fleet that has not gone deep into the battle is likely to see badly. Escape early, resulting in little results, so the 110 ships he assigned to Admira were all Carthage ships, and the 40 Phoenician ships with weaker combat capabilities were incorporated into their fleet. He believes that in the case of a great advantage, there is no need to worry about the fighting power of the Phoenician warship.

But now the situation is that the Annobas fleet is in a passive beating situation. In the face of the fierce attack of the Dionian warship, several Phoenician warships chose to follow the flagship's last order, and the follow-up The orders that required the attack were unheard of, and they retreated.

Their retreat also affected the fighting spirit of the nearby Phoenician warships, and they followed suit, causing the entire Carthage fleet not to say offensive, and even the defense became difficult to maintain.

After Anobbas learned about this situation through his gaze, there was no way to get angry.

"Adult, let's hurry and retreat, and we won't be able to go without it!" the captain eagerly persuaded, because at this time the Deonian warship appeared on the sea on both sides of the flagship of Carthage, due to its Annobas personally supervised the war. The situation is a little better. As the development progresses, the flagship will be cut off and surrounded.

"...Retreat..." Annobs said stunnedly, hiding his face on the deck and completely unafraid to face the fact that as a naval veteran suddenly encounters an enemy attack, he is in a hurry. Arranged the wrong formation, and then repeatedly changed the order, causing the originally dominant battle to become a defeat...

.......................................

"The enemy has retreated! The enemy has retreated! Look at the excitement of the hand above the mast.

Midorades’ face was not easy, and he asked anxiously:
How far is the rear Carthage fleet from us?

"Only three hundred meters!"

"Command all warships not to stop, speed up and advance! Remember, don't stop!" Midorades screamed.

"The captain, the flagship has raised three green flags!" shouted at the stern of a crow ship in the forefront of the fleet.

"What?! Green Flag!" The captain frowned. The Navy's language of the Green Flag was "accelerated." When the Divine Navy originally formulated the semaphore, green represented spring, everything revived, glaciers thawed, and rushed forward. The opposite, the opposite is the white flag, which represents the retreat, the Dionian Navy has no slogan of surrender), which means that they have to let go of the previous one who is flustered and is crossing the front of their bow. The Carthage warship, although unwilling in the heart, but the command must obey, the captain sighed helplessly and said: "The speed of the charge, go straight ahead! Unload the crow suspension bridge!"

All the ships of the 3rd Fleet were carrying out similar orders, which caused the entire fleet to speed up again. This forced the Annobas fleet to accelerate its escape. Even in a panic, in order to escape, collisions were visible from time to time.

When these slow-moving Carthage warships saw a fast-reaching Dionya warship, they all went straight. But the miracle appeared, and the Dionian warships seemed to have not seen them, passing them by and heading for the front.

.......................................

Admiral regrets.

He commanded 110 ships to ambush in the open sea under the command of Annobs. The crew drove the warships to bump in the wind and waves, waiting for the Denia fleet to slam, and waited for most of the day. The Devonian fleet chased them halfway and returned.

Admiral was disappointed. He informed the fleet that he was returning to the air and sent a Clipper to investigate with a glimmer of hope.

As a result, the Clippers reported that the Devonian fleet was intercepted by the fleet of Annobas.

Admiral immediately turned from disappointment to excitement, and he ordered the fleet to accelerate.

It didn't take long before I saw the Dionya fleet in front, but he did not order the fleet to immediately launch an attack, but let the fleet slow down the pace and set the formation.

The reason for this is that he has to consider: First, in the naval battle of Sedi Dium a few months ago, his pro-Iberian fleet was defeated by the Dania fleet, against the Dionysian fleet. The combat power is known. At this time, the Dionya fleet that had just started to fight with the Arnobas fleet was fully capable of splitting some of the ships, overturning to block his offense and causing greater losses to the fleet he led. .

Second, although he is now under the command of Annobas, he is not convinced. He hopes that the fleet of Annobis will suffer more losses in this war, and his own losses are very small, which is beneficial to him. The prestige in the new fleet is enhanced, adding to the right to speak.

Therefore, after Admikar let all the warships unfold and form a double-column ship's fleet, they will stand still and watch the development of the front battle, while alerting to the possible escape of the Dionysian fleet.

But he never imagined that the commander of the Denia fleet would be so decisive, would ignore his threat and let all the ships participate in the attack.

He did not even think that the fleet performance of the Arnold Bass would be so bad, the battle lasted only about 10 minutes, and some could not support it.

After getting a rough idea of ​​the situation in front of him, Admiral had to immediately issue an offensive command.

Let the warship reach the extreme speed from the standstill, and by the distance of nearly three miles, to the rear of the Dionysian fleet, the Admiral fleet spent about seven or eight minutes in order to allow the Arnobas fleet to try to force each other. Entangled, Admiral also let the flagship division soldiers use the greatest strength to blow out the sound of the attacking army.

But in the end, all efforts proved to be in vain. When they arrived on the battlefield, the Dionya fleet had already passed through the Carthage fleet and sailed to the distance at full speed, leaving only the destroyed Jiatai. The base warships, the Carthage warships that were cut by most of the sailors, were scattered on the surface of the sea. Many Carthage sailors floated on the surface of the sea and shouted for help to the fleet. EbookFREE.me~ became a hindrance to the Admiral fleet. The obstacle to progress.

Of course, not all of the Diaonian warships have fled in time. There are seven or eight Devonian warships or the speed of the hull is slowed down, or because the fleet infantry has not been withdrawn in time. Waiting for more time, or because the unscrupulous enemy ship suddenly appeared in front, unable to dodge and had to crash, and failed to rush out quickly... In short, they have not been able to leave the battlefield, far away from Dyiao Behind the Nigerian fleet.

The Admiral Fleet warships chased them up. The Denia warships saw that they could not escape. They also turned around and fought, even though they performed bravely, but they played less and the Carthaginians quickly gained. victory.

In the process, the Dionysian Third Fleet did not turn around and rescued, but was accelerating away.

Looking at the Denia fleet that had disappeared in the distance, and looking at the devastated battlefields around the world, Admiral was hesitant. He decided to catch up with the Dionya fleet. Rescue your own compatriots.

At the same time, he also sent the Clippers to look forward to the movement of the Dionysian fleet, and also let the Clippers go to find the escaped Carthage and let them return to the fleet.
