Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 499: First confrontation

Chapter 499 The first confrontation

Sirod already has become a captain. It has been thirty years since he was 15 years old and he has been on board already. From the bottom of the ship, he has gradually become a captain of the invincible fleet. How much risk and suffering are at sea. I remember when he volunteered to be a hired sailor of the Invincible Fleet, many people said that he was stupid, but after a few years, when he was formally hired by the Invincible Fleet to become a staff member, how many people envy him ...

At that time, he was only thirty years old, but the grocery store Boss in the neighborhood where he lived still married his 17-year-old daughter without hesitation. Now Cyrod has two adorable children, and he was promoted to captain of a large armed forces battleship last year. For Celad, success is simple. As long as he has worked hard for more than ten years, he has worked diligently to complete the orders given by his superiors, plus the cost of some property and good relations with his superiors.

So when Sylder received the order from his superiors to lead the fleet to patrol, he did not scold him like his colleagues, complaining about the **** weather and his bad luck. Why did everyone get it in Wodong? I was on the voyage or something, but nodded silently, and started to arrange with the logistics supervisor all the supplies needed for the voyage, as well as the cold-proof clothes allocated. Sailing in such a stormy weather is an adventure, and every detail must be discreet.

Luck is good. In such winters, patrols to the sea can reach your destination safely. The next step is to make a round in the sad ocean. In fact, the sad ocean in winter is not deserted. You can often see the shadow of one or several armed forces merchant ships. They are very aware of Selode. Most of these are actually smuggled ships. Don't look at Trade Union and Andinak Kingdom in the war, but the smuggling merchants on both sides are still communicating with each other. In many cases, the more the two sides of the war are fighting each other, Intense, the more rampant the smuggling activities are, the more money ...

However, Syrod's patrol fleet is not very concerned about these smuggled merchant ships. For the invincible fleet, as long as these merchant ships are inserted with the concession passes issued by their fleet, there are three small red flags on the side with blue diagonal stripes. Then these merchant ships are legal. Boss and the captain of all merchant ships and cargo ships who live in Hidegold Bay know that as long as they buy ten disposable gold fordess from the invincible fleet to buy such a one-time small banner, they can not only be unimpeded at sea, but also be protected by the invincible fleet.

It would be nice to find those smuggling ships without a small flag of franchising, which is almost the expectation of every crew and sailor who patrols in such a cold winter, because that means everyone can have a Fast forward into account. Without a small flag for the passage of traffic, the captured smuggling ships will be left to the patrol fleet to dispose of. No matter which Aristocrat(s) or Chamber of Commerce president is in the background, the invincible fleet will come forward to communicate with them. On the sea, the invincible fleet is so overbearing. It will make everyone understand that the sea is the territory of the invincible fleet.

The fire is beating in the fireplace. This should be the warmest and most comfortable cabin in the entire large armed forces battleship. Celode thinks he has this qualification, because he is also the lowest floor of suffering and suffering. Sailors squeezed into the damp, cold dark cabin and used their body to warm up to endless cold nights. But now he is the captain of already, naturally want to enjoy the spacious and warm captain's room.

The so-called first bitter and then sweet, no hard work, where the sweet harvest, of course, Captain Theodore's current goal is nobility status, leaving a hereditary Territory already to his descendants has become his goal. Becoming Territory Aristocrat(s) of Trade Union, this can't be achieved by hard work. Captain Theroud is figuring out how much money and help is needed to make himself a Aristocrat(s) Lord of the envy of Trade Union ...

"Ships, black ships, Norton Family's Black Ship Fleet!" The trembling voice of the watchman came from the platform. Of course, this trembling was not afraid, but frosty and excited. Everyone can hear the shout with a hint of surprise. At the beginning of last year, the Invincible Fleet issued an order, and ships meeting Norton Family at sea can launch an offense at any time, and no longer be incompatible with each other as before. Because Norton Family already became the enemy of Trade Union.

"Ah, the mouse has finally come out of the hole ..." Captain Theodor murmured happily. Perhaps this winter patrol will bring good luck to himself, such as adding a captain to the captain's uniform collar The silver sail badge represents the medal of victory that commanded a fleet to give the enemy a severe blow. Now Captain Theodore only hopes that this encounter will not be with the Norton Family fleet, which is called the "little marine" by the invincible fleet. Small fast patrol ships, those steering are too flexible and too fast to be caught.

When Captain Therod got on the ship's platform, the watchman's call came again from the lookout: "Norton Family main battleship, black ship, twelve ships, a distance of 500 nautical yards, fan-shaped Come around us. Alert! They seem to be coming towards our fleet, hostile ... ready for battle! "

Five hundred sea yards is equivalent to one kilometer on land. This is the standard unit when measuring distances at sea by Grindia Continent. It seems that it will take more than ten minutes for the two fleets to get close to the battle distance, and there is enough time to order the subordinate warships to prepare for battle. Captain Theroud looked up at the sky. Today the weather is very good, and it is rare to see a blue sky and a touch of sunlight in the sky. It should not snow for two days.

But Captain Theroud waited for a long time and did not wait for the watchman to continue to report. He raised his head in annoyance and shouted at the lookout on the mast: "Asshole, continue to report hostility!"

The answer from Wang Shouyi came from above: "Captain Lord(s), isn't already ready? Twelve black ships ..."

"Twelve? No other ships?" Captain Theodore was surprised.

"Yes, Captain Lord(s)!" The watchman shouted at the bottom: "There are only twelve black ships, and no other ships! Now we are more than four hundred sea yards ..."

Strange, what does this fleet of Norton Family want to do? Captain Theroud felt a little puzzled. He knew that the opponent named Beihai Fleet, which had a total of sixteen black hulls, was its main battleship, which was the main reason why the invincible fleet did not want to call it the North Sea Fleet and called them the Black Fleet. In the minds of all members of the Invincible Fleet, the sea belongs to the Invincible Fleet, even the chicken-like northern seas are no exception. Therefore, they do not want to call their opponents by sea names, and calling them a black ship fleet is equivalent to treating their opponents as those pirate fleets.

The sixteen main battleships of the Black Ship Fleet are said to be equipped with artillery invented by the dwarf , a long-range attack weapon. There have been patrol fleets and merchant ships that saw a main battleship of the Black Ship Fleet launching booming guns. He smashed a medium-sized pirate ship in public. Captain Theodore was not worried about this, because the observer said that the black ship of Norton Family hit the escaped pirate ship when the two ships were close to more than 50 meters. The previous rounds of artillery were all missed. So all the members of the invincible fleet no longer take the Norton Family's artillery on board. You must know that the long-range attack ships of the invincible fleet can accurately hit the enemy with fireballs and stones within a distance of 100 meters. Round, you can make five out of ten.

It is the main battleship black ship of Norton Family, which has aroused great interest from the invincible fleet. This type of ship, no less than a large armed forces battleship, has extremely unique advantages in design. It is just a stormy northern sea. Freedom to come and go attracted the attention of the invincible fleet. It was only later heard by a Chickadee Chamber of Commerce technician that when the cost of a black ship was about the cost of building six or seven large armed forces battleships, the high-ranking fleet lost interest. Although the invincible fleet's appropriation and income each year is a huge amount of money, all expenditure items are divided up and owned by already. The invincible fleet cannot afford an extra cost to build a few experimental ships like the black ship ...

Perhaps I might be able to capture a few black ships and go back. This will be a great contribution and help to me to win the nobility status position ... Captain Theodor's heart is hot. For victory, this is undoubtedly belonging to the invincible fleet. Take a look at yourself. The fleet of a sub-fleet that patrols has twelve large armed forces battleships and twenty-four medium-sized fast armed forces battleships. Against the twelve black ships of Norton Family, Captain Theodore was very sure that his opponent would be a moth-like fire ending.

However, Captain Theodore has always been very cautious. Even if he thinks that the Norton Family's Black Ship Fleet Commander has made a fuss, he doesn't want to capsize in the gutter. Besides, in his opinion, the twelve black ships of the other party are not without chances. If the twelve black ships are all carrying a hundred-person sea assault team, as long as they rush into the array of patrol fleets here, they will be chaotic. Chance of winning.

An invincible fleet patrol fleet, twelve large armed forces battleships, and twenty-four medium-sized fast armed forces battleships are the most basic configurations. The twelve large armed forces battleships are divided into two types of melee and long-range attack. The melee-type large armed forces battleship is equipped with a hundred-person sea charge team to carry out sea jumping operations, which is the key to occupying enemy ships. The long-distance large-scale armed forces battleship is full of twisted rock cannons, flying fireballs and large crossbows, as well as newly-equipped rock throwers, which are the main force guarantees for long-term non-contact operations to destroy enemy ships.

However, if each of the twelve black ships on the opposite side is equipped with a hundred-person sea assault team, then it will indeed occupy a relatively large advantage in the jump operation. Maybe the enemy played that idea. Captain Theroud laughed coldly. I haven't seen anything about the invincible fleet. Do you think that such a simple trick can make my patrol fleet suffer a big loss?

"The trumpet call, the medium-sized fast armed forces warship spreads two wings, entangles four black ships on the outermost side of the opposite, six long-distance large armed forces warships protrude, and blocks the four black ships in the middle of the opposite two wings. Destroy enemy ships with long-range attacks. Six melee large armed forces warships launched after the long-range attack. The target is the four black ships in the middle of the enemy. Ship! "

Captain Theodor ’s order is very concise. In the fastest time, already made the best confrontation plan. At once, the scream of the sky above the patrol fleet was loud, and the flag flew. The captain's flagship Haima, a long-distance large-scale armed forces battleship, also took the lead, appearing at the forefront of the patrol fleet, and met the twelve black ships of Norton Family coming in the distance.

Near, closer, the fleets of both sides are getting closer and closer, Captain Theodore stands on the berth like an iron tower, watching with satisfaction the sailor on the deck winds up the twisted stone cannon and opens his crossbow. Ignite the brazier and place four or fifty pounds of stone on the stone thrower. Once the black ship of Norton Family reaches the range, Captain Theroud promises to give the enemy a hard lesson ...

When the twelve black ships on the opposite side reached a distance of one hundred and fifty yards, all of the black ships suddenly turned one side and ran across the left hull in front of the patrol fleet.

What does this mean? Captain Theroud froze, did the enemy regret it and now think of escaping? But this distance is too close. Just wait 300 meters for them to fall off the bow and adjust the angle of the sails to start the escape. This will ensure that the patrol fleet already catches up. By then, the black ship of Norton Family can only be beaten In this situation, a silly captain would not be able to make such a decision. It would be better to just run through the enemy's array and find a direction to escape ...

When Captain Therod was puzzled, he saw two rows of black whistling windows appearing on the side of the black ship on the opposite side, and then a burst of white smoke erupted, and a thunderous sound came from the sea. It turned out that the black ship was on its side to launch artillery! But can the artillery be hit at such a distance, as long as we rush up, these black ships are waiting to die! It seems that the leader of the black ship fleet opposite did not know much about naval battles, and might be panic. To know the distance of 300 meters, no long-range attack weapon will have such a long range ...

Only Captain Theroud laughed abruptly. As soon as the laughter on the corner of his mouth aroused, he heard a scream of wind from far to near, and an ominous sound of "click", "click".

Captain Theroud looked up and couldn't help but stunned, but saw that the five sails full speed on the mast were swept across by somehow, the top two small sails fluttering one by one, the other one Waving like a flag. But the most terrifying thing is the three big sails below, as if cut by a sharp knife in half, all the cables in the front one have been broken and are falling, the main sail already in the middle is broken With a third of the mouth, the mouth is getting bigger and bigger in the roar of the wind, and the last vice sail is cut off by the lanyard and turned into a side sail ...

The battleship lost the wind power and started to turn on the spot. After a while, Captain Therod hurried to the rudder and turned desperately to turn the ship in the right direction. Unfortunately, the sail was damaged. Unable to recover by human effort, the hull already of the Haima began to turn to the left in place.

This all happened in a short moment, and then Captain Theodor heard the screaming wind again on the ship, accompanied by the screams of the crew and sailors. After the wind stopped, Captain Theroud looked on the deck, but saw broken limbs, blood and flesh, a wolf, and the culprit was two iron **** the size of a fist, one half of which was embedded. After entering the thick wooden deck, another iron ball was rolling with blood stains, and an iron chain was connected between the two iron **** ...

This is not the unlucky Haima that rushed to the front, but the six large-scale long-distance armed forces battleships rushed to the front. On the two leftmost battleships, the brazier was about to be overturned, and they burned along the broken sails hanging down. Both of them were panic. The heaviest hit was the Octopus to the right of Haima. The middle mast was broken and hit the ship's platform. The whole ship already couldn't control it and started to rotate.

The damage of the six long-distance large-scale armed forces battleships in the front has stimulated the morale of the remaining ships in the patrol fleet. Twenty-four medium-sized fast armed forces battleships passed the six damaged battleships and stopped in front. Six melee large armed forces battleships, they launched an assault on the black ship of Norton Family ...

To Captain Theodore this day is a picture that can never be forgotten in his memory. The twelve black ships retreat, roll, fire, and then retreat, roll, fire, or pursue. , Roll, fire ...

The rumbling artillery echoed for a long time on the sad sea. Captain Theodore and the sailors who survived and watched tearfully watched the six melee large armed forces battleships were smashed and then sunk. On the bottom of the sea ... In such weather, falling into the sea means death, and even Captain Theodore cannot do anything to save them, and his own Seahorse loses control.

Behind the distant patrol fleet, there were also rumbling gunfire. It was a black ship hunting for several fleeing medium-sized fast armed forces merchant ships. Captain Theodor watched the six black ships in the distance turned around and headed towards the six sailing ships that had lost their sailing power. He knew that already was now at the last moment, and he would never see a cute child or a beautiful wife again. Already.

"Fast, we surrender with the white flag ..." Captain Theroud murmured with his eyes closed.

"Lord(s), what did you say?" the sailor who hadn't heard him asked loudly.

Captain Theodore opened his eyes and became angry and angry: "Hang the white flag, hurry up, labor and labor are saving your lives, and hurry up and give me the white flag if you don't want to go to the bottom of the sea to become a fish and shrimp dinner!"

...
