Under the command of the great Captain Anne, the large lucky ship of the Bear Head Unknown Community quickly completed the full speed in the southeast direction and maintained the posture of more than fifty gun positions on the side facing the enemy, steadily seizing the standard naval artillery tactical position with the T-head.
At this time, as time goes by, the enemy ships that could only be barely visible at the viewing position of the hanging basket at the top of the mast have slowly appeared on the distant sea level.
Of course, at present, you can only see the enemy's masts and sails vaguely. As for the specific type, size and which community the hull belongs to, I don't know yet.
After all, the distance between the two sides is really too far, and it is definitely impossible to judge people from such a long distance.
“That’s…”
“One, two, three, four, five…”
“!!”
"Oops!"
At the tower above the rudder chamber at the stern of the boat, holding a monocular telescope in her hand and looking towards the east sea area for a while. After finding that the enemy had indeed had five boats, Black Rabbit finally couldn't help but exclaim, without any concealing the panic and uneasiness in her words.
"The enemy actually had a total of five ships. They surrounded us in combat formations. Can we rush out?"
The black rabbit panicked.
Think about it, too!
The enemy had five ships, and they were surrounded by a formation towards them, which clearly showed that the visitor was not good!
But they only have one ship. When everyone can only use cannons, muskets and swords to fight, the one with more ships and more cannons and more people will undoubtedly take advantage of it.
Even at this time, Black Rabbit doesn't think it would be too exaggerated to say that the enemy has absolute chance of winning. So, after confirming that the enemy has so many ships and the target seems to be them, how can she not worry?
"Um."
"It's indeed five..."
Nodded, the rebellious Sixteen Ye on the side also affirmed the Black Rabbit's statement.
"I don't know if there is any later."
"I hope there isn't it?"
At this time, at this distance, even without using a monocular telescope at that multiple, he could see the five blurry and small sail shadows on the sea level in the sky with his eyes.
Of course, they are small because of their distance, and Sixteen Nights are very clear that no matter what, the contestants will not choose small ships to cause trouble, so that the fleet will at least be medium ships or large ships like them!
In other words, later, they will have to face at least hundreds of artillery, hundreds of enemies, and at least twenty-five of outstanding strength, just like them, they are representatives of a community from the Box Courtyard?
Thinking of this, he had to touch the short gunpowder gun on his waist that could only fire one shot and the short scimitar that was said to be conducive to naval battles.
“…”
Although Reverse Sixteen Ye was very confident and never thought that his own strength would be lost to anyone, when neither side could use any gift ability or supernatural power, he could only use firearms and fighting skills. If the battle situation really developed to the level of jumping gang battles, he really couldn't guarantee that he would defeat his opponent who was also holding muskets and swords.
"But!"
"This is not right!"
"Didn't it mean that each community can only choose one ship, but you can see, why do they have five?"
"It must be a foul?"
At this time, Kasugabe Yoshi, who also saw the shadow of the sail, suddenly thought of something wrong, so he hurriedly asked his companions.
"whispering sound!"
"Who knows?"
"Maybe they are the navy's encirclement fleet, maybe some pirate groups, or a small group gathered by several other communities?"
"If you want to know, Kasugabe, you'd better ask them directly later?"
"If they are willing to answer..."
Dalang said that he didn't know more about the reverse retracement than Kasugabe. He had to guess the possibilities he thought so casually.
"ah?"
"Can you still get together in the racing competition?"
"This is a foul!"
"Black Rabbit, do you think so?"
He was stunned at first, and then Kasugabe hurriedly asked the Black Rabbit who was still watching the enemy ship with a telescope and asked.
“…”
Unfortunately, Black Rabbit is now all focused on those enemy ships whose hulls slowly appear on the sea level. Where can I get to take care of Kasugabe?
"No!"
"There is definitely no foul!"
At this time, before the Black Rabbit could react and answer, Jiuyuan Feiniao on the other side first expressed her opinion:
"I think what Sixteen Ye just said is right. It is likely that it is a small gang formed by several communities!"
"Karukagbe, do you think..."
“The promotion condition for the competition is to ‘manipulate wooden sailboats across the Pacific and arrive in the top 100’ destination, right?”
"Since the top 100 people can get promotions when they arrive, there will definitely be people who will take advantage of the opportunity to gather together in groups of three or five to form a fleet, and then suppress and attack other communities, and at the same time ensure the safety of their own sailing. This is definitely much better than sailing alone like us, isn't it?"
The long-standing birds began to talk and sincerely gave a thumbs up to the group of clever ghosts who appeared in the distance.
After all, if she hadn't seen that kind of thing, she might not have thought of it, and the team formation method that could have joined the group to keep warm and ensure her own navigation safety, while also forming absolute advantage in force and deterrence against other communities is indeed a very likely way to advance smoothly, and there is no doubt about it!
"But!"
"Why did they get together so quickly?"
"besides!"
"How did they gather together so quickly?"
"Is it possible..."
“What are their ways to connect?”
Although I could probably understand the saying of the long-lasting bird, thinking that the departure point of the Bear Head Unknown Community was a deserted island and no other community ships were found around, Kasugabe still couldn't imagine how the other party completed the team so quickly and formed a command system and was brazenly ready to attack them.
"It's safe!"
"Karukagbe, don't worry about how they got together for now. They are surrounded and clearly showing hostility. Then let's think about how to defeat them or how to escape!"
Shaking his head, Shiliuye didn't want to go on that meaningless topic again.
Because, no matter how the other party completes the formation of the fleet, the fact is that the other party has come towards them. If they can't survive this disaster, it will be useless to say anything.
"That's right!"
"It's meaningless to discuss that kind of issue now, so let's prepare for it!"
"But fortunately, this kind of wooden sailboat is slow enough. It's probably two or three hours left to wait until they come around and enter our range!"
The young bird who breathed a sigh of relief and pretended to be relaxed was just so relieved to Kasugabe Yoshi.
"This is the sea!"
"Although they have many ships, it is not so easy to catch up with them."
"I have seen some naval battle cases in the Middle Age of Discovery. The two ships chased each other because the speed was almost the same. In the end, it took several days to barely decide the winner!"
Asuki learned that when he went to the elite girls' school before, when he was at sea, the length of a person's sight range depends entirely on the altitude of the eye, the curvature of the earth, and the climate. The theoretical maximum sight range is about 25 nautical miles, but in fact, due to the influence of the altitude of the eye, refraction effect, the optimal climatic conditions, etc., the distance can reach 30 nautical miles?
Now, let’s just count the other side’s fleet being twenty-five nautical miles away from them. Now their ships are heading southeast, while the other side is heading southwest. Even if they do not count the angle and course factors of each other, the relative speed of both sides may be just a few knots. Even if the speed of ten knots is less than nineteen kilometers per hour, and twenty-five nautical miles is less than fifty kilometers. In this way, they will have at least four or five hours to prepare?
Anyway, Jiuyuan Feiniao felt that they could go for a meal, take a shower and then change their clothes now, so they would definitely be more than enough time.
"Miss is right!"
"The combat distance of sailing warships is generally 300 to 500 meters, and the effective range of those smoothbore guns is generally only about one thousand meters, and they are solid bullets. It takes one to two minutes for a skilled gun crew to fire. Therefore, in most cases, in order to ensure the accuracy and power of artillery battles, they will only bombard each other with dozens of meters."
"They have to chase them to enough distance to start a fight against us, it's still early."
"It's really time..."
"I'm afraid it's almost time to jump to the sidelines, right?"
Then, the reverse Sixteen Night sighed and began to worry about this game.
No matter what, the other party has a fleet with many people, ships and cannons. If they fight later, even if they can successfully escape in the end, they will definitely be scarred. It is really no sure whether they can reach their destination in the top 100 people.
So, if possible, he hoped that the ship could only speed up and get rid of the other party and escape, but Annie insisted on hitting the other party, and he had no good idea.
"Don't call me a lady!"
"Sixteen Nights!"
"I've told you many times!"
Hearing this, Feiniao glared at Shiliuye's hatred.
"I do not understand……"
"It's not okay for everyone to race well. They seem to be participants, so why do you have to attack us?"
"We didn't mess with them, did we?"
Although Kasugabe could understand what Shiroya and Kuyuan Asuka said, she was still a little depressed and wronged.
"Why?"
"There are 10,000 teams in this sea area, that is, 10,000 ships. Now, every time you sink one more, you will lose one competitor. If you or I have to do that, right?"
"whispering sound!"
"If possible, they might not need to run very fast at all. They just need to stop on the route and eliminate all the competitors they found while walking forward!"
"If there are fewer than one hundred teams left, you can advance no matter what. What do you think?"
"It's like being chased by a tiger and a brown bear. If you run no faster than others, then you can try to push someone else?"
As he was talking, Shi Liuye looked at Kasugabe with a grim smile, wanting to see what the other party said.
“!!”
"How can that be done?"
"That's wrong!"
"We should go to negotiate with the tiger and the brown bear!"
Upon hearing this, Kasugabe quickly protested, saying that she could talk to animals and did not need to run faster than others, nor did she need to push others down.
"alright!"
"Don't say anything!"
Seeing the two of them being entangled with a nonsensical problem, they had no choice but to stop the two of them, and the somewhat amused and crying Jiuyuan Feiniao could only impatiently.
"I've found a problem now!"
"I……"
“Eh?”
At this time, when Jiuyuan Feiniao was about to say something, she suddenly realized that the helmsman had begun to turn the bow of the ship for some reason and turned toward the east side?
“!!”
"What's going on, why did you turn?"
"Anne?"
"Hello!"
"Little Annie, what are you doing?"
"There is an enemy's encirclement over there!!"
Seeing this, he first looked at Shiliuye and Heiha in shock, and then, Jiuyuan Feiniao, of course, ran to the guardrail and shouted and questioned a little guy in the direction of the bow of the ship.
If the previous course had a chance to get rid of the enemy and take the opportunity to fire a round of cannons to cause trouble for the enemy, let the enemy retreat and give themselves more time to follow the currents, then, now that Anne turns like this, the situation will change.
In that case, at most, less than half an hour, they would enter a dangerous battle distance with the enemy. In the case of one-on-five, she really couldn't think of any way they could use to defeat the enemy with five ships.
"What are you doing?"
(ˊ)
"Of course, I used the crosswind to rush over and hit them, what else can I do?"
(*)
Anne in the distance certainly heard the questioning of the long-standing bird, but she didn't think about it and just explained casually.
"Can't!"
Finally, the Black Rabbit, who had been observing the enemy's situation with a monocular telescope since the beginning, didn't bother to check the enemy situation, but hurriedly shouted at a bad little girl in the bow of the boat, trying to stop the sailboat from moving at full speed to the east.
"Anne!!"
"The enemy has a battleship, and the remaining five are all large British square Garen ships. We will definitely have no chance of winning if we rush over!"
"It will definitely fall into their encirclement!"
Feiniao advised again.
In her opinion, the enemy is large and we are few, and the enemies are all big ships like them. There is even a battleship among them. If they want to rush straight to such a powerful fleet of five ships, it is definitely a bit of danger. It would be better to flee south directly.
“Encircle?”
(**;)
"No!"
( )
"It was them who fell into the siege of others, that's it!"
Q(`⌒Q)
Waving her small fist, Anne ruthlessly refuted Black Rabbit's words and said that she could not wait to start the war soon.
"Anyway!"
()
"There is too many ships that are definitely powerful. You idiots who don't understand naval warfare should not command blindly. Just watch it carefully. If you lose, you will be the one who will lose!"
()!!
After saying that, Anne didn't care about that much, and relied on her identity as the captain, she continued to let the large lucky ship sped towards the enemy with five large ships that appeared in front of the sea level in the east.
...
At this time, on the bow of the battleship of the enemy fleet opposite, a Loli, wearing a kimono and a pair of demonic ears, also put down the monocular telescope in her hand in surprise. She seemed to be unable to understand why the ship that was originally fleeing suddenly turned and rushed towards her.
"It's weird!"
"We have never seen it before. There is really a guy who is not afraid of death in the Box Garden World..."
"pity!"
"After all, they are a group of brave but unscrupulous guys!"
As he said that, the little loli of kimono thought about it, and simply threw away the telescope and stopped looking at it. Then he explained to a certain adjutant:
"go!"
"Notify and wait until the enemy aircraft has the best range, then open fire and sink them!"
"By the way!"
"It seems that the other party is not flying a flag?"
"That's a reminder!"
"go!"
"We will also remove our flag. We are a large business alliance community. When doing business, we focus on making good fortune with harmony. There is no need to let the other party know who we are."
"When the other party approaches, we will sink it directly!"
Then, the little loli of kimono once again ordered a companion behind her.
Anyway, since they are now in the pirate business of racing and robbery, there will definitely be many ships that will sink in the future. If someone knows that they are doing it, it will have a great impact on the business of their large commercial alliance community.
Even if they are not afraid, there are probably not many of the guys who can make it to this third ring of gifts. If they are missed by others all day long, it will be a big trouble after all.
“…”
"So long-winded!"
A guy standing behind him with his arms in his arms was still unmoved after hearing this. After a long time, he reluctantly turned his head and looked at an NPC sailor next to him and waved his hand to signal the other party to act according to the order.
In this way, the ships that had no flags on both sides began to rush towards each other at an angle of about 120 degrees under the northwest wind.
At this speed, at most, it will be less than an hour, and both sides will enter an effective shooting distance of one thousand meters. At that time, a big battle will inevitably be inevitable!
