But this risky approach also put them in a dangerous situation, because the enemy ship did not capsize, and order was quickly restored.

Ilias can see many infantry armed with spears pouring out of the deck of the enemy ship.

The enemy is going to jump to help fight! Ilias's heart tensed, and suddenly came to mind what the Sicilian Fleet Commander Sekrian used to say to them during training: "The army often says that our navy only knows how to fight alone and don’t know what cooperation is... they don’t. Understand! If a warship does not have the close cooperation of the captain, helmsman, sailor, watchman... and skillful control of the warship, can it defeat the enemy!

For a fleet, the crow warship is a bear, it is brave and straight forward, rampage, sweeping away all obstacles; fast three-layer oar warship is a wolf, fast and agile, look at the opportunity, and give the enemy ship a fierce collision ; Clippers are our horses, delivering various orders and messages in time...All warships must cooperate closely and kill the enemy with all their strength to ensure the victory of a naval battle!

In my fleet, I have to make a higher request. On the battlefield, the warships must help each other and make up for each other. If anyone sees that their warship is in trouble and does not go to the rescue, I know afterwards, and I, Sekelian, can ask the captain of this warship. Guarantee, he will not even be a citizen of Dionia! ……"

"Go forward at full speed! Target-four oars on the front right of the enemy ship hull! Ready to crash!" Ilias gritted his teeth and roared.

"Charge speed!" The captain yelled immediately.

The piper straightened his chest again, puffed his cheeks, and continued to play.

Despite being a little tired, the sailors' faces showed a look of tension and excitement: we are going to sink that huge warship!

They once again pushed the oars with their somewhat sour hands.

The speed of the warship is soaring.

Ilias looked at the enemy ship ahead and magnified sharply in his eyes. He yelled: "Bump!" Busily hugged his arms around the mast.

When the sailors in the cabin heard the warning, they immediately hung up the oars, bent down, and grasped the copper rings on both sides of the seat with both hands.

In the exclamation of the enemy on the four-layer oars warship, the warship slammed into its hull.

There was a loud "bang" and the hull quaked. The Carthage infantry who were standing on the deck preparing to jump to the other side of the Dionian battleship were pushed by a huge force. Many people He fell directly into the sea.

The bronze ram angle of the fast warship broke through the shipboard of the enemy ship’s side, but failed to further enlarge the gap, because there was a layer of shipboard inside. Although it was cracked, it was not broken. Infiltrated little by little, but prevented the fast warship from advancing.

Seeing this situation, Ilias immediately shouted: "Go back! Go back!..."

He must disengage from the enemy ship while the enemy on the ship is still in a panic, and then make a collision, otherwise he will get into trouble like his teammate on the other side.

But the Carthaginians reacted quickly, and when the Dionian sailors began to paddle backwards, the arrows flew down.

The distance was too close, and Ilias had no time to dodge, so he hit three arrows and fell into the cabin with a muffled sound, and was held in time by the sailor.

There were also arrows from sailors in the cabin, and the screams made the sailors a little confused.

"Don't panic! Swing back together! Piper!..." the sailor yelled loudly.

"Beep! Beep! Beep!..." The high-pitched voice of the double-pipe flute sounded, covering up the screams and calming the sailors.

As they started paddling, they heard another loud exclamation from the enemy ship ahead, followed by a loud bang, and the enemy ship shook again, and that force was transmitted to and On the Dionian warship that was connected to each other, the sailors were stumbling and chaotic.

Ilias woke up in the shock. It turned out that as the captain of a warship, he was wearing a leather helmet and leather armor as required. The two arrows on his chest were blocked by leather armor, but he suffered some skin injuries, but his arms. Being shot through by an arrow, I fainted with pain.

"What happened...what happened?" he asked painfully.

"It's the crow warship! It hit the head of the enemy ship!" The looking hand slid off the mast and reported to him.

"Captain! The enemy ship broke! It's flooded!" The watchman on the front mast also ran in and said excitedly.

It turned out that both sides of the Carthage’s four-layer paddle warship were hit by fast warships, and were clamped and unable to move. Then the crow warship slammed its bow, and the strong reaction force forced Yuan Some cracked hulls once again came into close contact with the warship of Ilias. In the muffled sound of "quacking", the bronze horns pierced into the bottom compartment...

The Carthage sailors fled in panic.

"Quick! Quick! Go back!..." Irias yelled eagerly.

When the sailors were paddling, several Carthage soldiers jumped onto the deck in panic.

After pulling the distance from the enemy ship, Ilias commanded the sailors to pick up the wooden oars and, relying on the advantage of the crowd, drove the Carthaginians out of the sea.

At this moment, Ilias breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm.

The sailor hurried over and cut off the arrow shaft on his left arm with a dagger. As for the arrow, he could only wait until the end of the war to go to the shore for the medical camp to dig it.

At this time, the enemy ship in front has already leaned to the left, and the crew jumped into the sea like dumplings...

Seeing this situation, Ilias sighed: "This is indeed a good ship! But it is not suitable for combat..."

"Captain, look!" the sailor reminded.

Ilias turned his head to look, and saw a fast three-layer paddle warship coming out from the back of the enemy ship and coming straight towards him.

Ilias quickly saw the paint-painted number on the side of the opponent's ship and the people on the deck saluting him.

Ilias immediately smiled and said, "Whoever I said is so bold, it turned out to be him!"

Ilias endured the pain, raised his right hand, and paid a military salute.

At this moment, the crow warship also turned around, and its captain was standing on the deck, also saluting...

Behind the three Dionian warships, half of the Carthage four-layer oar warship has sunk into the sea, and there are many struggling crew members floating on the surface...

Although the three captains did not shout, their excitement wafted in their hearts: they did not discuss beforehand, but they worked together to sink this behemoth. This is a great honor!

The three ships only met one face, and soon they each looked for the next target...

………………………………………

The battleships of the First Fleet of Dionia rushed forward and launched a fierce attack on the Carthage fleet. The two sides caught up and killed each other, and the First Fleet had the upper hand. Only more than ten minutes later, they broke through Carthage. The column of the front fleet forced the Iberian fleet to join the battle, but the previously defeated fleet faced the attack of the Dionian ships and its performance was even more unbearable.

Half an hour later, the forefront warship of the Dionian First Fleet had already rushed out of the Carthage's fleet and rushed directly to the fleet not far behind it.

The fleet was loaded with food and soldiers, and there were a full 300 ships, making the port of Serinus unable to accommodate all of them in a short time, so the fleet was lined up outside the port.

Although the laborers in the port are also speeding up due to the weather, they did not expect that the Dionian ship rushed over so quickly, and immediately frightened all the ship owners in the fleet. They commanded the sailors in a panic. The ship immediately sailed into the port to avoid enemy attacks.

As a result, the entire fleet suddenly became chaotic, and the ships rushed into each other, resulting in congestion outside the port, and even in the collision, the ship capsized...

After receiving the urgent report from the Clippers, Annobas, who was behind the flanks of the ship formation, was taken aback. He had left enough warships on the front of the ship formation. He thought he would have enough time with Dionia. The fleet dealt with each other, and I did not expect that it was completely at a disadvantage in less than an hour.

He did not scold the incompetence of the front fleet and the Iberian fleet, because on the flanks, the center fleet also felt the pressure of the attack from the Dionian ships, although on this side the ships he led seemed to be more powerful than the opponents. More.

Although Dionia's Second Fleet was ordered to defend the flanks, Flarios still adopted offensive tactics.

The huge hull of the flagship of the double-headed dragon made the Dionian warship evade it, and because of its slow speed and awkward steering, it could not catch up with the enemy ship, so it did not participate in the fight, but gradually Become a safe area in the ship formation.

Annobas stood on the top of the ship, condescendingly, observing the fighting around him, he suddenly discovered: Dionian’s crow warship and a smaller, but fast, three-layer oar warship cooperated tacitly. The Carthage battleship suffered a lot.

So, how dare he send warships to rescue the fleet at the port at this time. On the contrary, after a painful decision, he thought: simply letting the fleet pass the forces of the Dionian fleet would not only reduce the pressure on the battlefield, but also be more conducive to the counterattack of the Carthage fleet. As for worrying about the complaints made by the Carthage shipowners to him afterwards, he must first ensure that he won the naval battle. Otherwise, the Senate will punish him for his defeat, which is not bad.

He simply ignored the fleet's request for help.

"General, a warship was hit and sunk over there!" the looker on the top of the mast shouted loudly.

Anobath frowned and did not respond. He did not intend to let the ship go there anymore. The double-headed dragon has rescued many sailors. Now the ship is full of people and it has become a refuge. .

The war is worrying! He sighed, feeling a little cold on his body.

Cold? He was taken aback, and then he looked at the sea, the sea was making waves.

It's windy! And it's still westerly! He was suddenly ecstatic.

The wind will be stronger! Bigger is even better! Anlobus was expecting in the middle of his heart.

As if responding to his words, the slight waves of the sea quickly turned into waves, and the waves were higher than the waves, and it didn't take long for the entire huge two-headed dragon ship to rise and fall with the surface of the sea...
