It is actually very difficult to observe a premeditated sea attack in the medieval warhammer world that is difficult to communicate and observe.

Unless like Nelson and others, they know the enemy's route in advance and ambush their necessary path, otherwise it would be a matter of luck to find an enemy ship in the vast sea. Whether they can encounter it depends on luck.

It should be noted that even if Carter's modern navy in the 20th century had to engage in a sea decisive battle before the radar was invented, it would have to rely on deciphering telegrams or spies to send it back to the enemy fleet.

The 11th day of going out to sea, the Luna Luna Moon God came to the expected waters early according to friendly forces, and kept the lowest speed and circled around the place.

Everyone on the ship, including the lookout hand, stared at the direction they were responsible for, fearing that they would miss the opportunity to discover the enemy.

Although the Osun Elf already owned products such as glass, he had not yet invented the simplest telescope because of the layer of window paper. Therefore, everyone on the ship, including Nelson, could only rely on "visual" to seek the enemy.

Although the elves have good vision, they lack optical equipment, and the range of enemies is limited by eye power alone. Even on bright and sunny days, the vision limit of the elves' watch hand is only 30 kilometers. However, due to the influence of sea level, the actual visual distance will be much shorter. What's more, the weather is not good at this time, and seeing a ship ten kilometers away is considered to be a talented look.

By the way, Nelson, who wanted to experience it on the lookout, easily got the permission of the Elf Prince.

After climbing up the cold wind, he saw the female lookout hand wrapped herself into rice dumplings but still trembling, and the clone who was not ready to keep the cold was immediately punished.

"I'm up, I'll come and take a look."

However, when he got up, he forced himself to hold back the cold wind and smiled with a strange look on his face, and then occupied part of the space of the already not spacious lookout.

"Didn't they tell you to wear more and then come up?"

The female lookout hand, whose eyes were almost exposed, made a dull sound through the blanket and asked curiously.

"Ha...I just said I wanted to come and experience it. I thought I would go down right away, so I didn't say it, haha."

The female lookout hand, who was looking at sea level with her back to Nelson, rolled her eyes directly when she heard this: "No..."

Perhaps because of the news that Nelson was a guest of honor for the Elf Prince, the female lookout hand, who was born in a civilian, took the initiative to lift a little quilt on her body and invited him to come in and keep warm.

"Ah? This..."

Although he had lived in Lothen for several months and understood that the elf spirit was open, Nelson, who was still a little shy of the Chinese, did not react.

"It's very cold! Hurry up!"

In the end, due to practical reasons, Nelson leaned against an elf girl he had never met to warm up with.

Feeling the warmth coming from her, Nelson felt that it wasn't that cold at the moment. At the same time, he looked at the other person's calm face, and Nelson, who felt that he was a little overthinking, quickly returned to normal. He began to use Sharingan when the other person's sight was not on his side, and carefully observed the sea level more than ten or twenty kilometers away.

Perhaps he was favored by a certain elf god. Before he could stay in the observation deck, Nelson felt that he saw a bunch of black spots, but because of the wind and waves, he could not confirm at the first time. He looked at the Sharingan and confirmed that the black spots in the distance were indeed ships.

"Is there something over there?"

Nelson, who intentionally gave the credit to the female lookout, pretended to have discovered something and reminded her.

"What? Are you sure?"

Hearing that she turned her head skeptically, she narrowed her eyes and looked carefully in the direction Nelson pointed. She was originally calm and trembled excitedly after more than ten seconds: "Yes! That's the enemy ship! I found that the enemy's location is southeast, with more than a dozen ships! It's our target!" At the same time, she stood up and shouted to her compatriots below.

After Zijue discovered the target, Nelson, who had done his best, returned the quilt to the Lookout Hand, and then climbed down the deck with agility. The female Lookout Hand watched Nelson leave with complicated eyes. She had lived for hundreds of years and had a deep experience in life. In fact, the moment she finished calling, she realized that Nelson was giving her merits.

After discovering the target, the sails opened immediately, headed towards the enemy at full speed, and sailed through the waves. I don’t know if it was just going up to the tide or because the wind was very strong. Nelson thought the wooden sailboat was very slow, but the speed of the terrifying ten knots was actually reached, giving people the feeling that the whole ship seemed to be about to fly up the next moment.

When he saw the female mage who was maintaining the casting, he understood why the speed was so fast.

However, although the subjective feeling of the "Ten Knots" speed is already very fast, in fact, it is converted into a more common unit, and the ten knots can only move at less than twenty kilometers per hour. It was not until more than forty minutes later that the "Luna Moon God" could approach the point where the chaotic ship could be clearly seen with the naked eye.

A chaotic fleet of sixteen keels was sailing on the sea in chaos. The Chaos believers on the ship kept waving the slurry and maintaining their speed.

"Prepare for the fight!"

On the way, the tarp on the crossbows that had been used to avoid corrosion and moisture were removed, and the individually preserved bowstrings were installed.

After receiving the order, the sailors responsible for operating the crossbows immediately began to pull the bowstrings and load the ammunition. The rest of the personnel ran into the cabin, took out bare bows from the waterproof and dry box, loaded the bowstrings with plenty of bows and arrows, and took their place on the deck.

On the sea with complex and changing weather, before ships enter the ironclad ships and artillery bombing era, hand-to-hand combat between jumping gangs has always been the mainstream. On the one hand, crossbow weapons have limited killing ability to ships, which is far less efficient than jumping gangs. On the other hand, it is also related to the difficulty of maintaining bows and arrows at sea. If you do not properly manage the bow body and bow string like elves, the humid environment will soon turn the strong bow into garbage, and the bow strings will be loose enough to be used.

The corrosiveness of seawater is too strong. Even if the hull is treated and painted regularly, it will be corroded by the microorganisms attached to it. After a long time at sea, just the seafood grown under the ship is enough to make a big meal when you return to the harbor.

Due to the waves, in order to achieve the accuracy of early shooting, the "Luna Luna" has been approaching more than 150 meters away from the Chaos Fleet before it stopped approaching.

At this time, the human-powered keel boats that were not far away could be clearly seen by the elves. The Chaos believers on it had obviously discovered the elves approaching, and they were standing by the boat with their javelin axes and shouting, as if they were about to throw out the weapons in their hands.

"Hmph, keep the distance, slowly approach to a hundred meters, and then start the attack!"

There is no need to get close to those simple keel boats with range advantages.

Even if the keel boat is full of terror-torture believers, and their muscles are larger than each other, the javelins and hand axes thrown by manpower can fly sixty or seventy meters high. Even if the javelins can use the bonus of the throwing device to fly a distance of 100 meters, in the erratic sea, they are completely dependent on their feeling that they do not know what they are in advance, so how can they hit the high-speed moving eagle ship, and even if they really hit it, it will not have any impact on the ship.

"bouncing!"

The cross-faced attack allowed the crossbows on the eagle ship to be used with the highest efficiency. Under the command of the crew (the crew position > sailor is equivalent to an officer), the nearest keel ship was hit. Half of the ammunition hit the target in the first round of test shots. Although it did not cause too much damage to the ship, it successfully killed several Chaos believers who were staying by the ship, and fell into the water with arrows, becoming a delicacy for fish.

The sailors who did not need to operate the crossbows picked up their bows and arrows and shot at the enemies a hundred meters away.

During the construction, the keel boat that had almost never considered naval battles. Faced with the blows of the crossbows and bows, they could hardly be beaten and could not fight back.

After shooting hundreds of arrows and crossbow arrows, there were more than a hundred people in the keel boat with more than a dozen unlucky people being shot to death, and many more were injured by arrows.

At the same time, the more accurate the crossbows were shot, creating many gaps near the waterline of the keel boat, causing the sea water to pour in and the draft to deepen, which further reduced the speed of the ship and made the crossbows aim more convenient.

Nelson, who was staying at the stern of the boat, looked at the Chaos Dragon Bones ship without any power to fight back, and even wanted to laugh. The generation difference between the two sides in equipment was too big.

A technical army like a navy, as long as you have a generation gap, the meaning of the number advantage will become very small. No matter how brave you are, you cannot fill the gap. Those Chaos believers who keep roaring and roaring are the best cases.

This is just a fleet of indigenous (referring to humans) fallen people, and there is no real flying demon at all.

After being concentrated for more than ten minutes, due to too many gaps near the waterline, the keel boat began to sink at an irreversible speed. The living Chaos believers on the ship had to throw away all their armor and weapons, and then jump into the water, otherwise the weight of the armor alone would make them drown.

After paying less than a thousand arrows/cross arrows, he successfully sunk a keel boat, causing the elves on the Luna Moon Goddess to cheer and excite.

Of course, the sank of a ship so easily has a lot to do with the unreasonable structure of the keel ship. If a keel ship without a sealed water tank appears at all, as long as a hole appears near the waterline, there is nothing to do except make it up with wooden boards. The speed of the Chaos believer repairs is far from keeping up with the speed of the hole, so being sunk becomes inevitable.

"Today's hunting has just begun! Asul, don't let go of your guard!"

The "Luna Moon God" who tasted the sweetness ignored the Chaos Fallen Man who fell into the water and rushed directly to another keel boat.

No matter how good the physical condition of the fallen water person is, as long as he is not an amphibian, he will sooner or later be taken away by the cold sea water of the vast ocean. Therefore, the elves are too lazy to waste arrows to kill them. The sea god Marthran is the best sacrifice for the sea god.
