Chapter 733: ?despair

"The situation is not good." Captain Gordon said with a solemn expression, "Your Majesty has worked hard to reorganize the fleet and agitate the morale of the soldiers. He organized three breakouts in an attempt to break through the naval blockade by the leader of the Eternal Night Army. It ended in frustration. They not only sent a fleet there, but also planted a lot of mines there. Your Majesty is sending people to clear mines!"
　　 "Have your majesty come up with a breakthrough plan?" Captain Lena hoped that the opponent could spit out good news.
"I came here precisely for this." Captain Gordon nodded. "After several days of discussions with several fleet captains, your Majesty came to a conclusion that our fleet is now completely at a disadvantage. In the environment, if we retreat to the sea, we might not have the power to fight.
　　 Firstly, we still have a quantitative advantage. Secondly, the number of artillery shells carried on the battleship of the Eternal Night Army is certainly not endless, especially the magic artillery shells. Although I don't know how the opponent made them, the cost is absolutely high.
　　 This can be seen from their delay in launching a general attack against us.
　　 However, it is deduced from the current situation that if our fleet rushed forward regardless of casualties, casualties would be beyond imagination.
　　 Therefore, your majesty sent me out to ask for help, trying to break through the blockade of the Yongye Army leader by flanking on both sides. "
　　 "Your Majesty also thought of asking for help from Captain Moore?" There was a trace of excitement on Captain Lena's face.
　　 "Also?" Captain Gordon noticed Lena's words and asked in confusion, "How do you know your Majesty is asking for help from Captain Moore?"
"We just finished a meeting of high-level officers. Captain Cornell thought that it would be difficult for the fleet to break through the blockade with his own strength. He proposed this plan. Unexpectedly, it coincided with your Majesty. In this way, we don't have to. Reported to your majesty." Lena did not take Cornell's merits.
"You do have the intention. After the mission is completed, I will take credit for you in front of Your Majesty. Before that, you must assist me in passing the message to Captain Moore and His Royal Highness Leiden as soon as possible." Captain Gordon is Personal spirit, good luck, don’t mind sending it, regardless of whether the other party just said it is true or false.
　　 "His Royal Highness Leiden?" Cornell lost his voice. "Does your Majesty not only want Captain Moore's help, but also want to transfer the fleet that stayed in the Great Bay to rescue?"
　　 "Yes." Captain Gordon nodded and said, "This is a double insurance. At that time, we can only arrive all the way smoothly, and our fleet is expected to escape from nature."
　　 "The left-behind fleet is transferred away, what about the Great Bay Islands? Those indigenous rebels are likely to take advantage of the situation." The Cornell fleet captain has unconcealable worry on his face.
Before Captain Gordon could answer, Captain Lena glared at him and said, "Don't look at what time it is now. You are also afraid of wolves and tigers. If the main force of our fleet falls here, the Great Bay Islands Is the situation getting better? The main force of our fleet is the key. As long as this is preserved, even if the Great Bay Islands are completely lost, we can retake it again."
　　 "Your Majesty thinks so too." Captain Gordon confirmed Lena's explanation.
"Why don't you send the Clippers to take the sea? The speed of the sea is far above the land, and the blockade on the territorial waters of the Yongye Army is so tight? Even a Clippers can't get out?" Captain Cornell asked. One question.
"It's not that you haven't tried the method you mentioned." Captain Gordon's expression became extremely gloomy again. "As a result, thirty-two Clippers were ruined, and the news was not sent. The opponent's battleship was not only loaded with brand new ones. The long-range weapons also imitate the special abilities of the dragon-skeleton battleships. The sails of their battleships can be accelerated by magical energy. Our clippers have no speed advantage when facing them. In addition, they have eyes in the air. It's hard to escape their chase and interception."
　　 "Impossible!?" The two captains widened their eyes at the same time, as if they were listening to legendary stories.
　　The dragon skeletal battleship has been in their hands for hundreds of years, and they have not found a way to imitate it.
　　 How many years did the leader of Yongye get the dragon skeleton battleship?
　　 It's not even ten years to be fully paid.
　　 I can't believe it how to hear it.
　　 "This is what I have seen with my own eyes. There is absolutely nothing wrong with them. What they use is the dragon wings of the Dragon Roar." Captain Gordon said in an extremely positive tone.
Captain Lena had to issue other questions, and was pulled by Captain Cornell. "Captain Gordon has worked with his Majesty on the Dragon Roar for more than 20 years. The understanding of the Dragon Roar is far beyond ours. On the top, since Captain Gordon said yes, it must be right. The Yongye Army leads the soldiers with a large amount of spell armor, followed by a spell artillery that combines spells and black powder. This fully shows that they The skills we have mastered are far beyond our imagination. It is not surprising that we have thoroughly studied the technology of the Dragon Skeleton battleship and used it on other battleships."
"First is the magic artillery, and then the dragon-wing magic sail. Even if we successfully rescued the fleet from the Donau River, the situation that we will face in the East China Sea in the future is not optimistic." Fleet Captain Lena's expression was gloomy. Now, there are concerns that cannot be concealed in words.
　　 The three are all old sailors, and they know the three major elements of naval battle very well.
　　 Battleship speed, battleship firepower and personnel quality.
　　 Whether it is the old naval battle mode, or the new naval battle mode opened by the new battleship led by Yongye Army.
　　 The three major elements have not changed, only their importance and arrangement order have changed.
　　 The order of the three in the old naval battle mode is-battleship firepower-battleship speed-personnel quality.
Limited by the means of long-range attack, the focus of their pursuit was on the size of the warship. The larger the size, the more the number of personnel on board, the more bulky long-range attack weapons, and the thicker the deck. Attack or close combat will occupy a great advantage.
　　 Compared with the speed and the quality of the crew, it is not so important.
　　 The former can be offset by flat push, and the latter can be offset by quantity.
In the new naval battle mode created by the Yongye Army leader, the order of the three elements becomes-battleship speed-battleship firepower-personnel quality.
　　 The emergence of ultra-long-distance magic artillery, the importance of battleship speed, has jumped above the firepower of battleships.
　　The reason is very simple. If a Hurricane-class battleship is equipped with so many artillery artillery, it is enough to pull the Dreadnought-class sailing ship from its dominance.
　　Because the latter used milk so hard, it couldn't catch up with the former.
　　 Of course, this refers to the situation where the Dreadnought Yacht is not equipped with spell artillery.
　　 If the two have the same equipment, it is another situation. Normally, no one can do nothing.
　　 Hurricane did not dare to get too close to the Dreadnought Yacht, and the latter could not catch up with the former.
　　 The outcome depends on the specific situation.
　　 The key issue is that the East China Sea Fleet is not superior in all respects to the new warships led by the Yongye Army.
　　 The long-range firepower was crushed by others, and now the speed does not occupy the advantage. As for the quality of the personnel, it can be seen from the infantry led by the Yongye Army. It is definitely one by one.
　　 Even if they get to the sea, they will be released to death by the new battleship led by the Yongye Army.
　　 But this is all in the future. Their top priority now is to rescue the main force of the East China Sea Fleet from the Donao River pocket first. If the rescue is not successful, they will have no future at all.
　　 Captain Lena converged and said: "How can Captain Gordon need us to cooperate?"
"Your Majesty meant that I would personally persuade Captain Moore to return to Dawan Island and inform His Royal Highness Leiden about the matter. I need to trouble the two Captains to send someone. It’s best to keep it secret. Send more teams. To prevent interception by the other party, in fact, our side is also a kind of double insurance. Your Majesty will continue to send people to attack the maritime blockade led by the Yongye Army and get in touch with Dawan Island as soon as possible." Captain Gordon To tell the truth.
　　 "Well, I'll take a trip on this matter myself." Captain Lena patted his chest without hesitation.
　　 "No, if the captain leaves, what about our landing infantry?" Captain Cornell shook his head repeatedly.
　　 "This is the same as the command of Captain Cornell." Lena replied.
"No, the captain of the fleet is the infantry commander appointed by your Majesty, and the morale of the soldiers is now low. Changing the generals will only hit them further and cause unnecessary disasters. I may not be able to suppress it by then." Cornell The captain continued to shook his head and said, "Why not leave this to me."
Captain Lena hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "The captain said it is not unreasonable. This is the decision. Let's start choosing the manpower to prepare. I will give you a cover at night. I hope we To break the game, God bless me Donghai."
　　 "God bless me to the East China Sea." The other two said in the same voice, but deep in their eyes, there were still unconcealed worries.
　　Because they all know that the root cause of the failure of the battle with Yong Ye Jun leader this time is only a superficial reason.
　　 The real reason is the same technical difference between them and the Yongye army leader, Tianjian.
　　If this technical problem is not solved, what if they escape from the Donao River?
　　 is not the same as flying kites by the fleet led by Yongye Army.
　　 Don’t forget, the Yongye Army leader took advantage of the chaos and took down their three Dreadnought-class schooners, two Dreadnought-class schooners, two Hurricane-class and three Wave-breaking class.
　　 are relatively well-preserved ones.
　　 I believe it won’t be long before the opponent will be converted into that new type of warship.
　　 If it is a giant such as the Dreadnought-class schooner, which is also equipped with magic artillery and dragon-wing magic sails, what kind of combat power will it explode?
　　 Just thinking about it makes me shudder.
　　 By that time, all coastal ports in the East China Sea will no longer be safe.
　　 It was only a matter of time before the East China Sea was uprooted by the opponent.
　　 It’s just this problem. They are deeply pressed down in their hearts. No one dares to lift the lid or continue to think deeply, because they are afraid that they will lose the courage to resist.
　　……
　　 It was night, and the East China Sea infantry led by Captain Lena launched a night attack on the leader of the Yongye Army who followed them.
　　 This night attack was so powerful that more than 50,000 East China Sea soldiers were mobilized, and the drums and gongs were clamoring.
　　 But they never had the chance to rush to the front of the Yongye Army leader camp. Ten flares directly illuminated the battlefield into daylight, and then a round of shelling smashed it down, directly blasting the East China Sea soldiers who charged in the front.
　　 New recruits are afraid of artillery, and veterans are afraid of machine guns.
　　 In front of the artillery led by the Yongye Army, East China Sea soldiers, both elite veterans and newly recruited soldiers, belong to the ranks of recruits, because they are facing this new weapon for the first time.
　　 Fierce explosions, huge lethality and terrifying sights.
　　 will leave an indelible impression on them, seriously damaging their morale.
　　 They had to go through a lot of artillery fire before they understood the truth. After all, the coverage of artillery fire was limited. When they hit them, it often depends on the luck of both sides.
　　 Captain Lena hurriedly issued the order to stop the attack. Although it was a shame to do so, their other combat goal was achieved.
　　 Taking advantage of the chaos and the attention of the two legions led by the Yongye Army, dozens of teams dived out of the East China Sea Infantry Camp, along the coastline, to the Wuhe area of ​​the Donau Plain.
　　 They all brought the same message, asking Captain Moore to lead the squadron to help the main fleet.
　　 If you encounter other warships of the East China Sea Fleet Squadron, they will be requisitioned as soon as possible, flew to the Dawan Islands, and asked for help from the warships that stayed behind.
　　 Stupin, who had recovered from the initial shock, began to move as hard as he could on the Donau River.
　　 Although the artillery led by the Yongye Army is fierce, it can't conceal the fact that their warships are scarce.
　　 The leader of Yongye never dared to fight with the East China Sea Fleet, even if it was ten for one.
　　 Stubbs made full use of this and developed an unfavorable style of play.
　　 They don't care whether the leader of the eternal night cannibalize or swallow the tactics. As long as their warship sails out of the range of the city defense guns of Jiangmen Port, warships large and small will swarm up.
　　 put out a pair, even if you sink a hundred of my warships, I will sink one of you.
　　 After taking out this desperate posture, the fleet led by the Yongye Army was a little restrained, and the speed of the cannibalization was greatly slowed down.
　　 can only fight a guerrilla with the East China Sea Fleet on the surface of the river~EbookFREE.me~ If the East China Sea Fleet is pressed too quickly, the fleet led by the Yongye Army will retract back to Jiangmen Port.
　　 is a little slack, and he will rush out and punch them. If he can grab a battleship, he will grab a battleship, and if he can't, he will sink a few ships.
　　 Eguchi is also sending small warships to explore repeatedly, with the goal of consuming as many shells as possible from the Explorer fleet.
　　 When the East China Sea Fleet rushes out, the difficulty will be reduced whether it waits for rescue or not.
　　 At this point, Steubin is quite accurate.
　　The new warships led by the Yongye Army are certainly powerful, but their requirements for logistical supplies have also increased significantly.
　　 With enough shells, they could not lift their heads with the East China Sea Fleet under the pressure of more than 20 warships.
　　 If the shells are exhausted, they will immediately return to their original shape.
　　 The Explorer fleet used indiscriminate artillery coverage when it first demonstrated its powerful firepower. After that, it focused more on precision strikes, not to mention special artillery shells, even ordinary black powder artillery shells, but also used with fingers.
　　 In the late stage of the blockade, the Explorer fleet even ignored the provocations and ingress and egress of the small ships of the East China Sea Fleet, and stared at the main battleships of the East China Sea Fleet.
　　 The value of sinking one such warship is far above ten small warships.
　　 Yongye Army leader also did not expect to completely block the news and prevent the East China Sea Fleet from asking for help.
