Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 501: Post-war summary
Chapter 501 Post-War Summary
The historically named "2018 naval battle" is the second maritime confrontation between the Trade Union's invincible fleet and the Norton Family's North Sea fleet. After the battle, the invincible fleet claimed an unquestionable victory, and the North Sea Fleet did not refute this.
From the results announced by the Invincible Fleet, the victory of this naval battle should indeed belong to them. Only the Fourth Fleet of the Invincible Fleet played. They recaptured more than 30 ships full of military supplies threatened by the North Sea Fleet. Merchant ships and escorted them back to Hidegold Bay, destroying two Lightning Strike battleships and four large armed forces battleships of the North Sea Fleet during maritime engagements.
It's just that the invincible fleet did not announce their losses. In fact, if calculated from the destroyed warships on both sides, the fourth sub-fleet can say that already was disabled. More than a hundred large and medium-sized armed forces battleships returned to less than fifty of Hidegold Bay, and most of them needed to be returned to the shipyard for repair. This is also the real reason for the fourth squadron to shrink back to Hidegold Bay before the rainy season. It was the cause of 7,000 casualties and lost an Great Sword Master. It can be said that the already of the fourth squadron did not have the courage and capital to go to sea again. .
No one could have expected that the North Sea Fleet would be so cruel and cunning. When two lightning strike ships and a large armed forces battleship fell under the control of the Fourth Squadron, the top of the fleet was relieved. Capable of capturing three enemy warships and rescuing over thirty of their own merchant ships. Even if the fleet ’s loss is a little bit large, they can go back to trade, and capture the two main battleships of the North Sea Fleet to take them back for research, maybe invincible in the future The fleet can also be equipped with that kind of Bronze artillery, and it will not be impossible to meet the North Sea Fleet in the future.
It is just too early for the commanders of the Fourth Fleet to be happy. No one expected that the North Sea Fleet that already broke through the perimeter did not take the opportunity to escape, but instead killed a horse and rushed, and concentrated on shooting and fell into the first place. Two Lightning Strikes of the Quarter Fleet and the large armed forces merchant ship. Not only did they sink and destroy three warships, but they also focused on fire and fired shotguns to capture the Great Sword Master of the single-handed sword with a single strike sword. The dead bones fell into the sea ...
This is a heavy blow to the Fourth Squadron. Seeing a victory is just around the corner, but I didn't expect the enemy to have the power to slap themselves. At this time, the third and fourth waves of warships rushed over to meet, and there were nearly a hundred ships of the Fourth Squadron. In addition to a dozen ships that were severely damaged by shelling, they also had powerful ships. Combat effectiveness.
Only the North Sea Fleet already emerged from the siege, and fourteen lightning warships cruised a thousand yards away. The commander of the Fourth Fleet decided to end the battle, and ordered the defense array under the fleet to search for the merchant ships that were running around, giving up the severely damaged warships and preparing to return to Hidegold Bay. The Beihai Fleet in the distance did not seem to be interested in fighting again, and turned in a direction and soon disappeared between the dark sky and the sea.
According to the past naval battle experience of the invincible fleet, this naval battle already is over, but what they did not expect was that Simba Wood, which had suffered a big loss, would just give up without preparing. For the North Sea Fleet, today ’s encounter was a shame and shame. Not only were four large armed forces battleships destroyed, but even two lightning strikes fell into the enemy. Although they were eventually destroyed, there were nearly 1,000 casualties and six warships. The loss is proof of a great defeat.
The last U-turn blow gave Simba Wood a chance to defeat the enemy. In terms of the number of warships, the North Sea Fleet is not as good as the Fourth Squadron, but the speed and flexibility of the warships combined with the enemy's long-range attacks Strong enough to overtake any enemy ship. So the Norton Family sea wolf tactic that made the enemy fleet embarrassed was born, just like the wolves on the prairie hunted and hunted the bison herd, and the battleship group of the current fourth fleet became the Simba Wood and the bison herd in the eyes of the North Sea fleet.
Simba Wood led the remaining fourteen Lightning Strike Ships around a large circle, and suddenly appeared behind the Fourth Fleet at about 3 pm, and suddenly attacked while the enemy was in a panic. All lightning warships go away in one strike and never fight with the enemy. The first attack disrupted the defense array of the Fourth Fleet. The last five medium-sized fast armed forces battleships were sunk directly, and at the same time, more than a dozen warships and merchant ships were injured by artillery fire.
The commanders of the Fourth Fleet are very miserable. If the situation continues, the whole fleet will be in a state of being beaten and unable to fight back. Sooner or later it will collapse, but it will be enough to fight back the enemy. Now any lightning strike ship of the North Sea Fleet is slipping like a mud shovel, can't catch it, and send a warship to chase it and turn around and run away. If you chase a long distance, you may not be able to return. Several lightning strike ships cooperate with each other. Deal with those warships that have been lured. But if you don't bother, as long as the lightning strike ships reach the range, they will shell the fourth fleet. Now the morale of the entire fleet is already.
Fourth Fleet did not have counterattacked, so Ji Shi wanted to re-enclose the Beihai Fleet again based on the number advantage. However, the Beihai Fleet was not fooled this time. It took a long time and learned a lot. The fourth sub-fleet fought in three directions and immediately turned around and ran away. Then it made a big circle to the right-wing warship, and waited for the right-wing warship. After the warships withdrew, the commanders of the quarter-fleet saw a dozen warships never returning ...
Next is the performance time of the North Sea Fleet. Simba Wood divided fourteen lightning strikes into groups of three or four, and carried out assaults on the fourth fleet from all directions. As long as it entered the range, it was a round of artillery fire. There was no pursuit. Continue to shoot, run when there is chase, seduce the chasing warships to the outer area and then attack together ...
At that time, the commanders of the Fourth Fleet thought that if this continued, the fleet would soon collapse and the entire army would be annihilated. They began to think about whether to raise a white flag and surrender. But the darkened sky and the North Sea Fleet finally ran out of ammunition and gave the Fourth Fleet unexpected vitality. After the dark night returned to the Hidegold Bay's Fourth Fleet, the remnants of the fourth fleet were unbearable. Three hundred days ago, the more than 120 warships that had been attacked by heroism only returned more than 50, most of which were on the hull of the ship. There were also traces of damage and temporary repairs caused by artillery bombardment.
The only commendable thing is that this attack by the Fourth Fleet rescued more than thirty merchant ships threatened by the North Sea Fleet and escorted them back to Hidegold Bay. The more than thirty merchant ships full of military supplies finally solved the problem of insufficient supplies of military supplies to the scorched Chamber of Commerce high-rises. Now the maritime passage is cut off by the Norton Family's North Sea Fleet. Nearly fifty merchant and cargo ships full of military supplies and grain are being threatened. The message already to Silowas Islands is passed to Chickadee Chamber of Commerce via 6 routes. There will no longer be silly dispatch of merchant ships The sheep came into the wolf with cargo ships.
Trade Union The senior executives are very helpless. If they want to rely on maritime transportation to obtain supplies and reinforcements, they must first be defeated. Norton Family North Sea Fleet. They are ready to order the Second Squadron and Chickadee Chamber of Commerce of armed forces The fleet moved northward, on the one hand, the **** supplies and reinforcements arrived Morante City , On the other hand is looking for Norton Family North Sea Fleet conducts a decisive battle at sea, hoping to occupy it if possible Silowas Islands And completely clear Norton Family Of the North Sea Fleet to sea traffic.
But soon the summary report of the Fourth Fleet on this naval battle came to the top of Chamber of Commerce. In this report, all the commanders of the Fourth Fleet who experienced this naval battle signed their names to ensure that the report was correct. The combat process they mentioned in the report made Chamber of Commerce's high level shocking, and they could hardly believe that the invincible fleet did not have the slightest fight back in front of the North Sea Fleet of Norton Family.
A senior captain stated in the report the fact that most of the battleships of the invincible fleet lag far behind the North Sea Fleet of the Norton Family in long-range attack power. At a distance of more than 300 meters, the iron pellets fired by the artillery of the North Sea Fleet can easily break or break the thick wooden hull of a ten-centimeter-thick warship. A distance of more than 100 meters can break the thick mast in the arms. Regardless of whether it is a twisted stone gun or the latest type of rock thrower fired by their warships, even if they hit an opponent's warship within a range of 100 meters, they will only leave a little mark on the hull, which cannot pose a threat at all. s damage.
Not only that, even in the design and protection of warships, the large and medium armed forces warships of the invincible fleet cannot match any of the main battleships of the Norton Family fleet. Those warships capable of firing artillery are extremely flexible in operation and turn quickly. They have passed through a large number of battleships of the invincible fleet and are better than the invincible fleet in terms of airworthiness.
Maybe in addition to the Norton Family's North Sea fleet, the invincible fleet is competing with the Norton Family fleet in the southern waters with those small fast-impact battleships. However, these small fast-impact warships will encounter once the weather is strong. It's gone. Therefore, the commanders of the Fourth Fleet hope that the high-level of Trade Union can allocate a large amount of money, one is to study artillery, and the other is to rebuild a new type of warship that can compete with the Norton Family fleet.
The senior executives of Trade Union smiled bitterly when watching this report. Norton Family knew a very powerful artillery, not even worse than the legendary dwarf Kingdom ’s kingdom guardian weapon dwarf artillery. The intelligence has long been known to them. Great Sword Master dispatched last year sneaked into Northern Land. Assassination of the unhealed Lorist, when he searched for the artillery training base, he was attacked by artillery, killing four and injuring four. Although the remaining Great Sword Master launched a massacre on soldier(s) of that base, after all, the power of artillery already passed to the ears of Trade Union high-level officials.
Unfortunately, Great Sword Master got a lot of design drawings of new and powerful weapons in Norton Family, but there was no relevant information about artillery. It is also unclear where Norton Family got the gunpowder. Just looking at so many hills and mountains on the Northern Land map, the senior of Trade Union thinks that Norton Family is likely to dig a salt mine to deploy the gunpowder required by the artillery.
In the research of artillery, Trade Union pinned its hopes on the dwarf Kingdom of the Titanic Mountains. However, the communication and negotiation with dwarf did not go well, and it took some means and a while. However, the large amount of research funding proposed in the report for the construction of new warships has left Trade Union's high levels at a loss.
Although Trade Union is known for its wealth, it does not mean that Trade Union has endless wealth. Since the glass war, Trade Union has suffered from hostility from all over the world, and its business activities have been suppressed. Eventually, it has forced Trade Union to adopt an external expansion policy to ensure its commercial interests and sphere of influence. It took so much time and thought to finally break down and disintegrate the hostile Central South Kingdom Alliance, making Trade Union one of the largest territories with large territories of Grindia. But back to the Andinak Kingdom again, and the intensity of this war is more than those wars in the past Trade Union.
Trade Union and already can't bear it anymore, now it's time to close the gap and Andinak Kingdom to see who will collapse first. The new territories obtained from the expansion have not been properly sorted out for effective management, and here again, they are fighting with Andinak Kingdom. You are welcome to say that Trade Union already devotes all its resources to this war. At such a critical juncture, where can we allocate a large amount of funds for the research of new warships ...
The post-war summary report submitted by the Fourth Fleet allowed the senior management of Trade Union to reach a consensus, that is, to destroy the North Sea Fleet of Norton Family at all costs and capture Silowas Islands. Since the development of the Norton Family fleet already left the invincible fleet far behind, making the invincible fleet unable to catch up and pass in a short time, then when the size of the North Sea fleet was not large, the enemy's quantitative advantage was used to give this enemy Eliminated, no matter how much sacrifice is paid, the Norton Family's maritime power must be brought to the same level as the invincible fleet, and everyone will compete for the exhibition together.
As long as Silowas Islands is captured, there is no need to worry even if Norton Family develops its maritime power. The loss of Silowas Islands by Norton Family means that they will lose the initiative and berthing base on the maritime battlefield and can no longer threaten the maritime commercial roads south of Hidegold Bay. The high level of Trade Union is very confident. With the Gold coastline in the middle and south of the Big Six, the invincible fleet will only expand faster and faster. But relying on a remote and desolate Northern Land, how can Norton Family compete with Trade Union's invincible fleet again?
The determined Trade Union high-level has once again expanded the size of the Northward Fleet. This time, they are planning to let the first fleet of the invincible fleet stationed at Jigda Kingdom go north together. They will first join the second fleet and then join the Chickadee Chamber of Commerce armed forces fleet. Escort forages and military supplies, and reinforcements arrived at Hidegold Bay. Then gather all the fleets and pounce on Silowas Islands. Even if the North Sea Fleet of Norton Family is very powerful, how can a dozen warships equipped with artillery be more than 700 or 800 enemies? Even if you are a target, you won't be able to hit that many ...
Just when Trade Union's high-level officials figured out how to attack Silowas Islands and remove the threat of Norton Family fleet to the sea. Simba Wood also led fourteen lightning strikes back to Silowas Islands. This attack seems to be a failure for Semba Wude. Not only were four large armed forces battleships destroyed, but even two lightning strikes were ordered to sink. This is an intolerable shame for the members of Simba Wood and the North Sea Fleet!
It was only that the North Sea Fleet adopted the correct sea wolf tactics to siege the enemy. Seeing that the number of warships in the Fourth Squadron was decreasing and it could be wiped out with more effort, the North Sea Fleet ran out of ammunition. . Simba Wood had no choice but to return to Silowas Islands with fourteen lightning strikes. The shortcomings made Simba Wood very unhappy, and now he only hopes that the warships equipped with artillery to return to Northern Land Bullhorn Bay can return as soon as possible.
But the rainy season is coming soon, and Simba Wood has no time to sail again to the sea on the road south of Hidegold Bay to find the invincible fleet. Lightning strike ships returned from this battle have to go to the shipyard for repairs. Simba Wood can only take the idea of revenge in mind, and look forward to finding the invincible fleet after the rainy season.
