Alpine town, on the coast.
The seven hundred soldiers trained by Luo Lin have all assembled here, and in the sea behind them, there are more than three hundred various fishing boats.
Most of these fishing boats were requisitioned from the townspeople. They were very cheap, and each boat had a gold coin. They used it at will. The townspeople rushed out of the boat. Of course, cheap is not good. The largest of these fishing boats can take five people, and the smallest can be two.
However, because of the small size of the ship, the speed is good. The sails and wood pulp are not slower than those of ordinary merchant ships. Of course, this is incomparable to the water-wheel warships of the Vendome Navy.
Luo Lin stood on the beach to make the final mobilization: "Brothers, there is only one purpose for this battle. We are going to grab the ship from the'Reef', their gold coins, and their weapons! Why? Because of us It's the lion, we need these things, and that group of weak rabbits happens to have this thing, so grab them all and let them dive naked!"
Okay, Luo Lin’s words are very rough, but the soldiers present are all big and rough, and they don’t understand any major principles. They have followed Luo Lin to train in the past few months, and I admire Luo Lin’s military power very much. At this time, Luo Lin’s prestige is already Steady, all the soldiers thought that they were looking forward to their heads, 5∈, w≥ww. At this time, they were also easily mobilized, raising their weapons and shouting: "Grab all the pirates!"
"Okay, get on the boat!" Luo Lin waved his hand and walked to the beach. Reached out and dragged the largest fishing boat off the beach.
Although this ship is the largest. But it's not much bigger. It is only seven meters long and two meters wide, and weighs enough to seat five people, including weapons and equipment and food.
In addition to Luo Lin, Narosa naturally followed these five people, as did the wolf and Horn.
After these months of intensive training, the wolf has also made great progress. He has a good physical foundation, especially his strength. In Luo Lin's eyes, he is now an 18th-level warrior. Although he does not comprehend the power of anger, his physical strength is already as high as 120, making him a strongman.
As for Horn, although he has been in charge of the internal affairs of the territory in the past few months, he has gradually identified a few talents, and his work has been divided, and he will naturally follow the training. This guy is really smart. The talent is also excellent, although the training time is less than that of the wolf. But the achievement is not low, even 2 levels higher than the wild wolf. He is already a level 20 fighter, and his physical quality faintly breaks through the elite level. It is indeed a figure who can become the commander of the coalition army in later generations.
The other soldiers also pulled the fishing boat into the sea, paddling and sailing. For a time, hundreds of fishing boats on the sea went hand in hand, but for a time it was a little imposing.
After traveling for a few miles, the sky became beautiful, and the wind direction on the sea changed, just facing the direction of Parrot Island.
"Start sailing!" Luo Lin shouted and issued orders as soon as he saw the situation.
There is also a soldier in his ship called Yopni, who has been fishermen for generations and has a strong fishing ability. He is famous in Gaoshan Town. He is responsible for assisting Rollin in commanding the fleet and leading the navigation, which can be regarded as a military commander. .
After the sail, the speed of the fleet increased greatly, and the wind generally rushed towards Parrot Island.
"My lord, at the current speed, you should be able to reach Parrot Island at around seven o'clock in the evening." Yoppney said.
Originally, fishermen were most afraid of night sailing, because it was difficult to tell the direction, but Rollin had long allowed Bernard to smuggle a batch of military compasses from Vendôme, and the young man Yopney also had a star-gazing position. Ability, so as long as there is no storm along the way, you will never worry about getting lost.
Luo Lin was relieved of Yopney's ability. Regardless of his young age, he had been with his father for seven years, and his brain was also clever. He was an absolute professional because he was better than blue.
The boat traveled quickly, riding the wind and waves all the way, and by 4 o'clock in the afternoon, it had already traveled most of the distance.
At this moment, there is endless sea water in all directions, and it seems that it will never go far. Luo Lin was so tenacious in the boundless waters and the small wooden boat at his feet, he couldn't help being deterred by the force of nature, and he was silent for a while.
"My lord, look at the birds in the sky and the green parrot. This bird is weak and can't fly far. It can appear here, which means we are very close to Cockatoo Island." Yoppany pointed to The bird in the sky said with joy.
This is good news. Luo Lin also felt relieved and smiled: "Very good."
Unexpectedly, Narosa suddenly pointed to one of the seas and said, "No, master, I'm afraid it is very bad, look over there!"
Luo Lin looked over, but saw nothing: "It seems there is nothing, right?" He was not so sure, because in terms of eyesight, Narosa had a racial talent, much more than him.
But before he could finish his words, Zhi Nao sent a message: "The Vendome naval ship was found."
When the news came, Luo Lin felt that a small picture appeared in his vision. The picture was an enlarged version of the sea surface he saw. In this enlarged version, a black dot appeared on the horizon.
The picture was enlarged again, but it was the ship's mast, with the azure flag floating on it. The flag was enlarged with crossed swords and muskets. This is exactly the pattern of the coat of arms of Lord Primo.
Why did the Vendôme Navy appear here? Luo Lin felt that the situation was a little bad. He squinted, pretending to watch carefully, and then nodded: "I also saw it. There are three warships coming towards us."
Horn and the wolf didn't see it, but Rollin and Narosa were very powerful, and they naturally didn't have any doubts. Horn frowned and said: "According to Bernard, this is not the patrol area of ​​the Vendome Navy. Why are they here? Are they also here to encircle and suppress pirates?"
"It's probably not that simple." Luo Lin felt an inexplicable breath. He turned his head and said to Narosa: "You go find out the situation."
"Yes, Master." Narosa immediately jumped into the sea, swung its tail, and swam quickly in the direction of the warship. Snake monsters are originally amphibious races. In the water, Narosa is like a fish in water. She can even hold her breath for half an hour in the sea.
A white line on the sea flew away. Others can only wait patiently for news from Narosa on the boat.
………………
Vendome fleet.
The fleet has three warships. Each of these warships is more than ninety meters long and nearly thirty meters wide. There is also a layer of iron covering the outer hull, especially the bow, which is especially reinforced, and the collision point is specially added. This ship also has sails, but Wind is not the main driving force. At the stern position, you can clearly see a row of propellers spinning really at high speed, pushing the sea water back continuously. This is Vendome’s unique water turbine. It is the perfect crystallization of dwarf crafts and magic, even in stormy weather. , This battleship can still move forward as usual.
This is the water wheel ironclad that Vendome is proud of.
At this time, the sailor at the observation post of the foremost battleship seemed to have discovered something. He put down the monocular in his hand, raised the brightly colored flag in his hand, and waved it to the deck. This is the semaphore, which means exactly: "Find the goal!"
The sailors on the deck immediately rushed to the command module. Report to the fleet commander.
Commander Hansen was a sturdy middle-aged man, wearing a navy battle armor shining with metallic silver light, and a spotless silver-rimed blue-bottomed battle robe was covered on the outside of the battle armor. When the sailor came to report, he was playing against his adjutant senior magician Du Rui.
Hearing the news, he smiled slightly, and a word fell in his hand, and a murderous opportunity appeared on the chessboard: "It seems that the prey has appeared."
Although the magician Du Rui is extremely talented in magic, his chess power is not as good as Hansen. He was concentrating and struggling to cope. Now that he has military intelligence, he just took the opportunity to truce, pushed the chessboard, and laughed: "Haha, go Fight again."
Hansen laughed, and didn't say anything about breaking the adjutant's mind. He turned his head and stretched out his hand to the soldier beside him. The soldier understood and took the binoculars over. The commander's telescope lens is polished with precision crystals, and its function is not weaker than that used by watching sailors. Hansen walked out of the command cabin and looked at the sea ahead.
Soon, he found the target. Seeing the dense and simple fishing boats, Hansen couldn't help but laugh. He handed the binoculars to Du Rui beside him, shaking his head and smiling bitterly: "I can't think of my dignified North Sea armored fleet. Fire on these dilapidated wooden boats, if this incident spreads, I am afraid it will be laughed at."
Du Rui also saw the opponent this time. After watching for a while, he sighed, "Although there is no glory in this battle. However, this group of people organized a fleet without authorization. Although it is a dilapidated fishing boat, it also violated Wangdo. The law of Mum, this is a provocation to us."
"Well, that's what I said." Hansen nodded. The waters around Vendôme are their world, and there is no room for two tigers, and the sea is the same.
He turned his head and ordered: "Sail! Full speed ahead! Ready to fight!"
With an order, the sails used to save magic power on the three ironclad ships were immediately retracted, and the water turbines were running at full speed. The sea behind the ship suddenly surging, and a puff of white water vapor emerged from the chimney, which was discharged after the water magic violently operated. With the inert water element, the speed of the iron-clad ship suddenly nearly doubled, like a three-handed sword, sprinting towards the fishing fleet ahead.
The soldiers on the armored ship also started to get busy, and various orders came and went one after another.
"Heating the barrel! Heating the barrel!"
"Check the ammunition!"
"Fill the magic crystals and smooth magic output!"
These are the sounds in the cabin. With these orders, the muzzles on both sides of the iron armored ship suddenly opened, revealing black and faint holes. These are dwarf artillery, with as many as thirty on each side.
The slight redness of these artillery barrels indicates that it has been heated up and is in a state of full magic. This is to ensure the maximum power of the shells, and the magic of fire in the barrels can also minimize the abrasion of the barrel walls.
The deck is also busy.
"The Musketeer, take your place!"
Soldiers rushed out, evenly distributed behind the protective panels on both sides of the deck. The naval battle is not suitable for swords, so Lord Vendome bought muskets from the dwarves for a lot of money. These magic muskets have a range comparable to bows and arrows, and they are more powerful. They are even easier to use than bows and arrows, and can be formed with a little training. The only drawback of combat effectiveness is that the price is really expensive. One shot costs one hundred gold coins. With Lord Vendome’s financial resources, it can only be used in the navy, but the army is incapable. Moreover, when fighting on land, cold weapons are rampant and powerful people are everywhere. The power of this musket is greatly weakened. It's not cost-effective.
The whole preparation process took only five minutes~EbookFREE.me~Five minutes ago, this ironclad ship was still a gentle lion, but now, this lion has shown its hideous fangs.
The lion fights the rabbit with all its strength. Although the opponent is weak and unreasonable, the fleet did not underestimate it. As soon as it came up, it used the strongest force and prepared to tear the opponent to pieces in an instant.
Commander Hansen looked at the sea level ahead. It was still very calm. They were still some distance away from their opponents. Without a telescope, the fishing boat could not be seen with the naked eye. However, Hansen had already anticipated the scene of the fishing boat being torn to pieces.
"Hey, this is going to be a massacre!" With a sneer on his face, he returned to the command room. The power of the two sides in the battle was too far apart, and there was no need to command at all. He just had to wait quietly for victory.
At this time, no one noticed that beside the iron armored ship, a thin white line was quickly extending to the fishing boat. The speed of this white line was so fast that the speed of the iron armored ship was far from comparable to her. Soon, the white line disappeared in the distant sea.
