Chapter 102 Begin to Ambush
After much persuasion, Daliang finally comforted Shu Xiao's restless heart and sent her out of the captain's room to let her get to know her griffin.
Two hours later, the Blackfire Fleet sailed against the wind to the northernmost point of the Sidney combat plan, and then the ships of the entire fleet turned southwest. The strong northeast wind swelled the sails, and the sailors worked together to pull the rigging to adjust the sails to the most wind-strength position. The strong power pressure of the bow sank, the sea water was chopped, and the huge waves from the bow hit the open deck, and the ship kept accelerating.
Daliang was also constantly adjusting the position of the ship model on the combat map based on the positions of the Black Fire Fleet and the Marine Transport Fleet. The two fleets approached the vertices along two sides of a corner on the map in the form of a model. As time passed, the models of the two fleets finally met on the map.
At this time, Shu Xiao's shout came from outside: "Master! Master! The target fleet really appeared. They are in our south. That npc hero is so awesome... so accurate!"
It's God!
Daliang rushed out of the captain's room and entered the bridge. Shu Xiao was riding her royal griffin on the top of the mast and shouting and pointing at the distant sea. Daliang immediately took out his telescope and looked at the southern waters. Sure enough, a fleet had just emerged.
It's a fleet of troops, that's right!
"All the captains of the Black Fire Fleet obey orders and raise the battle flag! Get ready for battle!"
"The Black Fire Fleet temporarily established the First Squadron, under the jurisdiction of the 'Skull Soldier', 'Iron Glove', 'Iron Boot', 'Iron Hat', 'Iron Plate Armor', and the flagship 'Skull Soldier', and the fleet commander Sidney, responsible for the main combat missions against the enemy fleet; the Black Fire Fleet temporarily established the Second Squadron, under the jurisdiction of the 'Black Fire', and the flagship 'Black Fire', and the fleet commander Daliang, whose mission is to provide air support and magic support to the First Fleet."
"Shu Xiao, take off! Take off!"
With Daliang's continuous orders, the three-masted warship "Skeleton Soldier" raised the flagship flag, and other warships also raised the battle flag to the top of the main mast. Then the first fleet took advantage of its speed and separated from the "Black Fire" and approached the troops transport fleet.
After receiving Daliang's order, Shu Xiao took off with all the griffins. During the gathering in the air, the three state magic was imposed on them by magic mages.
Advanced Bloodthirsty Magic
Advanced body protection shield
High-level Holy Spirit
When Daliang was about to impose a few more magic on the "Skeleton Soldier", he found that the first fleet had already run out of the magic mage's range.
So fast... It was indeed the right thing to separate the first fleet.
Sidney
Specialties: Navigator (ship speed is increased by 10%, and the speed of the sea surface ships increased by 10%)
Stunts: Primary Navigation (10% increased ship speed)
Intermediate offensive technique (the army's melee lethality increased by 10%)
Intermediate artillery (cannon lethality increased by 10%)
After Sidney became the head general of the First Fleet, with double acceleration, the First Fleet's speed surged and quickly cut in towards the army transport fleet.
Shu Xiao left 6 griffins to protect the "Black Fire" and quickly chased after him.
When the Blackfire Fleet discovered the fleet of troops transporting the fleet, the lookout hand on the mast of the "Coconut Tree" also saw the Blackfire Fleet. Seeing that the fleet that suddenly appeared in the northern waters all raised the battle flags, he shouted loudly at the deck below: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! The unknown direction of the 11 o'clock in the north is approaching at high speed. They have a three-masted warship, four two-masted warships, and one three-masted merchant ship. Note! This is not an exercise, this is not an exercise, all personnel are ready to fight. Notify the captain that we are about to be attacked..."
The shouts of the lookout hand made the entire deck mess. Centaurs, dwarves, and elves rushed out of the cabin. One cannon was removed from the cover, and buckets of gunpowder were lifted out. The gunners looked out and cleared the aquatic plants that affected their vision.
Captain Lucius rushed out of the captain's room as soon as he received the warning. He stood on the bridge and looked at the fleet rushing from the north with a telescope, and couldn't help but breathe in his heart.
The enemy fleet rushed in very fast. Not only did they use the northeast wind, but the fleet's main general should also have the ability to accelerate. Seeing the enemy's purpose is very clear, raising the battle flag and rushing, it is obvious that they ambush themselves. Damn... Who leaked it? How did they know that my fleet would pass by this place at this time...
Spy! There must be spies in the top management of Chongming City!
Lucius cursed, but he also knew that this was not the time to guess who was the spy, and he should let the fleet enter the combat state as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the enemy fleet approached and suppressed by the enemy fleet, it would be dangerous.
"The fleet immediately launched a combat formation, and all Pegasus knights took off and pressed forward to buy time for the fleet's tactical formation. Each warship is responsible for the magical blessing of their Pegasus knights..."
In the troop transport fleet, the warships accelerated to separate from the troop transport ships and prepared to form a battle line in the maritime formation to fight against the enemy fleet. The two troop transport ships deflected their courses to hide in the left safety zone of the warship.
Pegasus knights on each ship took off one after another, and magic rose from the warships and shot at the Pegasus knights to which they belonged. After the turn, these Pegasus knights who took off flew towards the rushing enemy fleet, led by several silver Pegasus knights.
Sidney stood next to the helmsman of the "Skeleton Soldier". He pressed his left hand on the hilt of the sword and held the bridge guardrail with his right hand. His battleship was at the top of the entire fleet. The hull was moving at high speed and waves were raised after wave, and water droplets scattered in the sky were splashing at his feet.
Not long ago, he was a pirate who didn't know if he could survive the next day. Going forward, he was the captain of an ordinary brig warship of the Pudong Fleet. His mission was to patrol and deal with those merciless merchants. Once upon a time, his dream of joining the navy was to lead a fleet to fight a magnificent naval battle, but the fact was not what he imagined. If he wanted to be promoted in the Pudong Fleet, his identity was more important than ability. Gradually, his dream was buried in his heart.
Now, a powerful warship is at his feet, and a powerful fleet is behind him. The fleet in a mess in front is his prey this time.
Sidney stared at the fleet in the distance and whispered: "The naval battle on Feichen Island is so low-level. Only such a battle can excite me, and only a fleet of this size is worthy of being destroyed by me."
At this time, all the Pegasus Knights in the Hong Kong City Army Transport Fleet took off. They made a simple formation in the air and flew towards Sidney's fleet.
"All archers are careful not to let the enemy Pegasus knights approach our masts and protect our sails..."
As soon as Sidney's order was issued, the griffin's cry came from the sky behind, and then a large group of griffin flew over the fleet, and huge shadows quickly passed through the deck. The griffin came, and under the leadership of a royal griffin knight, they flew around the mast at a low altitude, protecting the sails of the First Fleet firmly.
The soldiers of the human race cheered at the griffin.
