Chapter 488: Fearless battleship (2 in 1)

At the beginning, Admiral Proudmoore believed that the departure of the Hindler National Navy fleet was nothing more than a smoke bomb; as for the news that King Dyne himself was on board, it was nonsense.
But then, not long after, the news was confirmed to be true by the intelligence services of Pudri and the Principality of Florence.
Schindler's fleet did leave Ghostblade Harbor and did not return; King Dane was indeed on the Yellow Dragon-at least when he boarded the ship.
When the news was confirmed to be true, Admiral Proudmoore began to suspect that there must be a conspiracy in this matter.
Dyne was a man with a talent who could roughly unite the well-known chaotic land of Schindler in five years, and established a traditional power that made Florence and Pudri , People who have to unite to be able to deal with powerful nations. How could he do this kind of death, and still put himself in danger?
Would a king be so stupid?
The admiral did not believe it.
But there are some things that are indeed facts.
Soon, the Joint Fleet passed the Seahawk Cavalry and detected the location of the National Fleet.
As the intelligence at the beginning said, the National Navy Fleet indeed left Ghostblade Port. They are now wandering on the sea at least four days away from the port, and they are not fast, and they do not seem to have too clear purpose, they are just moving in the direction of Shawan Port.
As for whether King Dion is still on board, it is a matter that no one can know.
The warship formation composed of the ten ships was floating on the sea, and the surrounding areas and all sea areas were swept by the combined fleet in the past period of time. There should be no other hostile forces, even if There aren't any sea monsters that you might encounter occasionally.
Under such circumstances, Proudmoore was wondering where else could hide the danger.
In fact, the admiral, from the bottom of his heart, still insists that there is a trap in this matter.
However, all the facts show that the enemy may indeed be head-teasing.
He still hesitated, and the decision to attack was not that easy. The powerful joint fleet, which is almost two-thirds of the main battleships of the Principality of Florence and the Kingdom of Putri, must not be tolerated.
But fighters are a fleeting thing.
According to the analysis of the intelligence department, it is very likely that the Hindrells could not carry the blockade, and there was a crisis in the country's food reserves. Therefore, they had to take this risky act. The warships departed from the port and transported materials to Shawan Port, solving the urgent domestic problems.
This analysis makes some sense.
The coalition forces have an intelligence network inside Hindler's territory. This intelligence network is not necessarily strong, but at least some information can be obtained.
The coalition forces don't know the specific figures of the Kingdom's grain reserves. But in terms of the current situation, this number should not be too much.
The most direct evidence lies in the east defense line of Hindler. The Fifth Corps has significantly reduced the supply of supplies. At the same time, the revival policies of the three regions of Central County, Tianshuizhou County, and Hindrera County are also The moratorium was announced half a month ago, and the food subsidies for the people who opened up wasteland and construction were temporarily cancelled.
It is precisely because of the performance of the official government of Schindler, that the analysis made by the intelligence units of the coalition forces has certain credibility.
Admiral Proudmoore hesitated for almost a full day. To be honest, if it weren't for his generous name here, the generals and officers below would have been skyrocketing.
In their opinion, how can a good fighter so obvious not be grasped?
On the second day, when the current general did not make a decision, some people couldn't hold their breath.
The one who couldn't hold back first, of course, was the Florence. Proudmoore was an admiral of the Kingdom of Pudri and a hero of the Pudri, but had little to do with the Florenza. Although the naval generals of Florence have also heard of the companion's impressive name, they do not have much opinion on him becoming the commander in chief of the joint fleet, but after all they belong to two Different countries.
Proudmoore tangled for a whole day and could bear it; but tangled for two days, that was a very thing: if you continue to tangle, everyone's warships will go to Shawan Harbor!
This time, the two countries formed a joint fleet and came to the waters of Hindler. Isn't the purpose of completing the maritime blockade and forcing the Hindlers into submission? This family is all swaying out of the voyage, and even dare not fight, what are the obstacles to interception?
Are people sailing between Comilla and Sandy Bay? If the family would take on the Shire merchant ship again, or do something else, would they also have to stand and watch?
What's the point of forming a joint fleet and running a maritime blockade?
The naval generals of Florence found General Proudmoore.
Their persuasion finally moved the admiral, so he finally decided to take the initiative.
After all, fighters cannot be delayed.
Now that a decision has been made, Proudmoore has no plans to keep it.
Under the command of the admiral, the ships of the joint fleet throughout the sea moved. Except for leaving a small formation and continuing to sweep across the vast ocean, the main forces all swooped on the Hindler National Fleet.
As soon as the order was issued, the thirty-two main battleships went in a mighty direction towards the enemy's tracks detected by the seahawk cavalry.
The admiral had realized that since the enemy dared to venture out of the port, there must be a reason to dare to do so. They could not change anything on the ship in the short term, and there were no signs of sea monsters around Hindler's national naval fleet.
Then, the most likely scenario is that the Hindler's warships are equipped with some powerful weapons that make them feel that they can turn the tide.
Although Proudmoore, a veteran general who has spent half his life at sea and fought naval battles, will not think that there are any weapons that can really ignore the gap between warships and bridge the huge gap in hard power between the two sides. But this kind of risk has to be guarded against.
Require captains at all levels to be mentally prepared to fight a tough battle, sea hawks to prepare for air support, seven fearless battleships, loaded with rows of artillery, and naval soldiers and ammunition for the entire ship, to do Well ready for battle.
The entire battleship formation consists of two parts. The forward was a goose-shaped array, with three Dreadnought-class battleships distributed, and seventeen frigates and cruisers cruising alongside. They will be the main force to attack the Hindler National Fleet. After the enemy and entering the combat distance, the goose formation formed by the forward fleet will be stabbed in like a cone.
Leading the front is the Dreadnought battleship of the Principality of Florence, the Iron Torrent. The flagship of the Duke fleet, which has a displacement of 11,500 tons, is the one with the heaviest armor and the fiercest firepower of the integrated fleet. Although it has some disadvantages in flexibility, it is also compensated by its strong protective ability and surging firepower.
Moreover, even the slightly bulky Steel Torrent is better than the pseudo-warships of the Hindlers in terms of sensitivity, and the two sides are not at all a level.
The leader of this fearless class warship is even equipped with an ancient collision angle at the bow. When it enters the enemy ship, it is tantamount to a tiger breaking into the flock. No warship can resist the impact of the Steel Torrent. When he kills in, the power of volleys will add up to nearly 150 guns on both sides of the ship, which will shock everyone to see this scene. Human mind.
If it is close enough, the Iron and Steel Torrent can completely use a round of salvo to kill an opponent's 10,000-ton battleship.
After the Steel Torrent, several battlecruisers were equally important. Each of them has the ability to single out and win against the disabled 10,000-ton battleships of the Hindler.
At the same time, in the middle of the goose-shaped array, two other battleships also lined up. Once the forward battleships did not achieve a crushing advantage within a short time, they would immediately join the battle.
In view of the Hindler National Fleet, sending out such a big battle has actually meant a little bit of killing chickens and using a sledgehammer.
But despite this, Admiral Proudmoore still felt a bit unstable.
Therefore, among the battle formations he discharged, there was a fleet of twelve battleships at the rear.
The twelve battleships will be arranged in an oblique array, following the goose-shaped array. Four battleships, including the prestigious Queen, Holy Knight, Holy Infant, and Colossus, will all be among them.
Normally, the goose-shaped array in front is enough to use the general advantage of crushing to easily destroy the Hindler's fleet, even if the Hindler is equipped with a powerful weapon on the ship, theoretically, It is impossible to survive the strike of the forward fleet.
Even if something goes wrong, Proudmoore is on the Queen, and the legendary admiral will immediately lead the subsequent oblique formation fleet to support it.
This should be foolproof. The admiral can hardly imagine that the enemy has any way to defeat himself.
He can finally rest assured.
...
Two days later, the leader of the goose-shaped array in front of the United Fleet, the captain of the Iron Torrent, Lieutenant General Paparos of the Principality of Florence, informed the Queen that they were able to use the naked eye within sight. See the Hindler National Fleet.
This proves that the distance between the two sides is not too far away.
The Steel Torrent can be found on the Hindler, and it will naturally be found.
The National Navy Fleet was very normal, and when an enemy attack was observed, Canada chose to escape.
A few minutes after the news, Admiral Paparoth received the next order from Admiral Proudmoore to adjust the direction of the goose formations and intercept the Hindler's fleet in advance to force them to change course. Away from Sand Bay Harbor.
This is something that must be done. After all, they are now only about a day away from Shawan Port. If you chase stupidly, if you haven't caught up yet, people have already entered the port, so chase in vain.
Changing the course and intercepting in advance may lengthen the chase time and temporarily distance the two sides, but as long as the Hindlers do not want to hit the interception line of the United Fleet, they must also change their direction. Therefore, under the condition that it was impossible to go to the Shawan Port, the vast sea was chasing whatever the combined fleet was chasing.
Anyway, the United Fleet sails much faster than the Hindler National Fleet.
This chase fled, and four days passed.
The Hindlers did not dare to confront the United Fleet. After the current United Fleet, led by the Steel Torrent, was to be blocked in front of them, the National Fleet immediately changed course and headed east.
Everything is moving in a good direction, and there is no surprise beyond Proudmoore.
The admiral's mood was even more relaxed. He even felt that his initial concerns were a bit ridiculous. This war was no different from any of the pirate battles he had fought in the past, and even easier. You know, those pirates are a group of guys who have been on the sea for a lifetime. They are cruel and sly, as slippery as mud in the ocean, elusive, but not so easy to catch.
The Hindler National Fleet is not as clever as those cunning pirates. Obviously, this fleet, which was formally established for just over a year, is not mature enough, far from reaching the point where it can compete with true maritime overlords.
This is true no matter from the strength of the fleet or the experience of the admiral.
The national naval fleet, which was blocked and had to flee to the east, was finally caught on the sixth day of the official start of the pursuit.
At that time, Admiral Proudmoore was sitting on the deck of the Queen, looking up at the blue sky and the ocean. His lieutenant sent news that the Steel Torrent was ready to fight and was about to lead the first formation of the United Fleet to attack.
Prodmoore had no fluctuations in his heart ~ EbookFREE.me ~ He just waved his hand slightly, indicating that he knew the news.
He no longer doubts the outcome of this war, just wait for the news of victory on the front line.
In fact, there is no need to wait. In fact, with farsightedness, Proudmoore can see the battlefield in the distance and see the majestic posture of the Steel Torrent when he attacked.
The Florentine Iron Torrent was indeed a good ship, no worse than the Empress, and even made him feel a little jealous.
But then, this jealousy was thrown out of the clouds.
The situation on the battlefield seems a bit wrong.
