Chapter 364 365 What the Army said to"The battleship Hero has left the fleet, the cruiser Basenk is sunk, and the destroyer USS Sitting Sunken, cruiser Mauser seriously wounded..." On the Cambridge of the Fearless Conquest, the adjutant reported to Laurens the loss of the fleet.
With air support, Alanhill's fleet has been doing pretty well so far, only losing a few of their own after sinking hundreds of battleships and a huge floating fortress battleship only.
Compared to the loss of the Demon fleet, the loss of the Alanhill fleet is now quite bearable. Even, it was better than the previous battle, and the results were more brilliant.
"The cruiser Kempes has just been hit by the magic cannon, about 100 people were killed, and the battleship is sinking." At this time, another officer came over and reported what had just happened.
Laurens is quite satisfied with the current situation. The loss of his fleet is not huge, and it can completely block these demon battleships in front of him.
As long as the current naval battle continues like this, he must be the victor in the end. Those demonic fleets could not land, and victory belonged to the Alanhill Navy.
At this time, the demon castle floating in the sky, the top of those towering buildings, the huge magic gun turret, began to spin heavily and slowly. The Floating Void City Fort came into range and was ready to shoot.
"Don't wait! Fire now!" The evil Demon General standing behind the crenels of the city wall immediately gave the order to fire.
Following his orders, all the magic cannons on the demon castle were moved towards the main fleet where Laurens was, and a beam of dazzling magic energy was ejected.
These magic cannons are more powerful than those on demonic battleships, and they look condescending and seem more accurate when firing.
A shell directly hit the Fearless, which had been slowed down and wounded, and then the Central Region of the battleship was melted by the hot magic energy shells shot by the Magic Cannon.
The deck was burnt to charcoal, the steel armor below the deck scorched and melted, and then the magic artillery shell penetrated the top armor of the hero's fearless ship, penetrated the cabin below, and destroyed The boiler chimney pipe in the middle was broken down, and finally the boiler inside was broken down and scrapped.
The battleship Hero did not explode. After all, as long as the coal-fired battleship did not detonate the ammunition compartment, the probability of being detonated would be much smaller.
However, just this blow has already damaged the hero seriously. Although the amount of water inflow is not too much, the hull of this battleship has been severely damaged and deformed, and it has completely lost its power.
The huge battleship with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons can only stop in place and be beaten if it loses power. And this time attack of the floating fortress is far from over.
Another magic shell fell, hitting a cruiser directly, blowing the cruiser into two pieces.
However, the good luck of the demons ends here: in the next round of attacks, their ammunition is poured into the sea, and no damage is done.
The battleship Hero is slowly entering the water, and it can only leave the fleet after losing its power, and has to bear the pressure from the demon fleet alone.
"We must protect the Hero from trouble! We can't abandon thousands of soldiers and throw them between the two armies to be beaten!" Laurens said painfully.
When he saw that the battleship Hero lost power and the speed slowed down again, he had a hunch that even if he won the naval battle at this time, he would have to pay a heavy price.
Each sailor is trained and is a very important force. Thousands of sailors will be lost in this battle, which is definitely a major loss for the Alanhill Navy.
"Commander! We have no way to rescue the Hero! We can only let them fight to the end!" The adjutant choked out, looking at the battleship Hero, which was on fire and smoking thick smoke.
Everyone knows that at this time, if you use your anger and refuse to give up your companions, you will lose more people's lives.
The navy is a service that is more rational than emotional. Any decision will affect the life and death of thousands of people, and it can determine the success or failure of a navy - every commander must make a rational decision, otherwise He is the sinner of the country.
And this time is even more serious. If the Alanhill fleet is ruined, it may become a sinner for the entire human race.
You know, the British navy once sank three battleships in one go by their opponents in order to rescue their comrades who fell into the water. As the commander-in-chief of the Navy, Laurens is also a veteran of naval warfare, and naturally he will not make such a mistake.
However, even so, he will still feel distressed, and will feel that those acquaintances who once fought alongside him were killed by the enemy in front of his eyes.
"Get ready to send a telegram... I'll avenge them! I promise, none of these demons can live!" Laurence clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and ordered fiercely.
He is ready, this time he must annihilate all these demon battleships here, and not one can let go.
The adjutant standing beside him didn't move. He stared wide-eyed at the demon battleship in the distance, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
Just when everyone was desperate, the Demon Fleet changed their course, a sudden change this time that gave Laurens and the other commanders a sense of unfathomable mystery.
It stands to reason that the demons should now divide and cut the human fleet, and then attack the divided weak fleet to strive for greater initiative.
However, the Demon Fleet gave up those close victories and gave up the chance to sink the battleship Hero.
They turned abruptly as they approached Piri Phi Island, apparently wanting to land on Phi Phi Phi Island and cause trouble for the human coastal defense forces.
"Sir, sir... the devil, the devil's fleet seems to be turning!" Finally, the adjutant made sure that there was nothing wrong with his eyes, and then he pointed to the distance in surprise and shouted loudly.
"What did you say? What are you kidding me." Holding the telescope, Laurens looked towards the direction of the demon fleet.
Then, following closely, he saw those distant demon battleships changing their course. Obviously, the other party didn't seem to plan to continue fighting with the main force of Alanhill's fleet, and turned to...
"What? Let me?" Putting down the telescope in his hand, he was still thinking about what Laurens, who avenged the hatred of the heroes on the Hero, had an unbelievable expression on his face.
This is not a question of being a gentleman or not. This is simply a level of stupidity. Instead of attacking the wounded battleship, it turns to land?
"Quickly figure it out for me! What are those bastards thinking about? Are they despising our navy?" Laurens looked a little embarrassed and asked towards his adjutant.
In fact, this feeling is often felt by everyone, that is, when being pursued by the opposite sex, there will be similar thoughts: when you are chased by others, you will feel annoying, but if the other party suddenly gives up, you will feel very uncomfortable. taste.
Those demon battleships gave up the battleship that continued to attack Alanhill and turned to attack Piri Phi Island, the huge fleet turned awkwardly under the attack of the three fleets of Alanhill, like an old man with a stroke, trembling Weiwei walked on the streets full of cars.
"What's this? What's this? They're going to take our entire navy's firepower and hit Piri Phi Island under our pincers?" Laurens didn't know whether to cry or laugh confirmed again.
"I think...that's the truth." The adjutant swallowed and looked at his chief officer replied.
He also thought about other possibilities, but no matter how he thought about it from the devil's point of view, there was no way he could see such a clumsy tactic as a lure or something else.
It turns out that even if a fool makes a mistake, ten smart people may not be able to infer the fool's true intentions. Who would have thought that the evil Demon General army commanded at this time was really crazy enough to fight the landing battle and the naval battle together?
"Concentrate your firepower! Attack the opponent's fleet! Order the destroyer fleet to maintain the front line as much as possible. If the demons want to get close to Piri Phi Island, they must break through their defense line!" Figured out what the devil has the ultimate move to turn defeat into victory, so he ordered it immediately.
"Also, send a signal to the Victory! The fleet adjusts its course! Bite the main demon fleet and continue to fire on the periphery! Destroy the opponent's living forces!" He continued to order without pausing.
In the bridge of the destroyer USS Anson, Captain Jason received an order from the battleship Conquest, the flagship of the main fleet.
He returned the document to the officer who delivered the order without saying a word, then looked at everyone around him: "Gentlemen, we have no torpedoes, we can only rely on our own ships. Cannons, come to stop the enemy's battleship!"
"Behind us is the island of Piliphi, the territory of the motherland cannot be trampled! Let those demons die...or step on our corpses and remove the skins Phi Dao!" He grinned when he finished speaking, his face full of calm.
His subordinates also laughed together, everyone seemed to hear the news of the party, one by one was very excited: "Let those demons taste our power! We are not only torpedoes Even with naval guns, we can send those bastards to seabed!"
"Let them let them go!" Another officer said with a smile: "This is what we give to the West. A good chance for revenge!"
Just as they bravely prepared to fight to the last moment, they went to die gloriously. Another telegram was sent by the liaison officer.
Open the telegram, Captain Jason haha size up. He handed the cable to his men, and it read: "The Army just called, the original text reads: 'Let them come, you can't take all the credit, we haven't fired yet.' General Laurens My opinion is that what the army said is right..." 'Originally, this is more of a supplement, but in the middle of the night, Long Ling suddenly found out that there was an Alliance Leader rewarding... So this It is not a supplement, it is a supplement for the new Alliance Leader zhengxiem! In addition, thanks again to Emperor EMPEROR, thanks to potatoes who like to drink coffee, thanks to Christa Saigao, thanks to every reader who supports Longling, thank you. It's great to have you here!
Long Ling still owes you three more shifts. Long Ling remembers it, never forgets it, and will definitely make it up. Don't worry.
