The battlefield with Okaz Island as the core has become a mess. Relying on the bronze guard Anaclos to overwhelm the island's air defense force, the Alliance army has successfully landed on the island and is currently trying to break into the bunker.
It was only after breaking down the bunker door that the Alliance army discovered with some despair what a huge underground world it was. It was an almost impossible task to capture Gazlowe alive in the intricate underground caves.
At the same time, the battle at sea has become more difficult. Although it will be very troublesome if there are only a few submarines, it is also a fantasy to really want to defeat such a large fleet.
But if Kezan's fleet is here, combined with the elusive submarine, Marshal Dai Lin will feel tremendous pressure.
The commander of Kezan is still the unbeatable Gryzlik. Last time he fought a losing sea battle, but this time he is determined to defeat Daelin and become the new king of the sea.
After Dailin learned that in the last naval battle, the opponent sent resources to Orkaz Island by defeating and sinking the ship, he also developed a sense of admiration for Grizlik, the goblin commander.
It is not difficult to win or lose a war. What is difficult is to fight and lose a war appropriately according to the preset goals.
Facing an enemy like him, if he is not careful, there is a risk of annihilation of the whole army. However, Gryzlik can accurately complete the task of sinking the ship at the preset location, and successfully escape with other warships. This is enough for Dai.
Lin looked at him with admiration.
At this moment, the two were fighting again, and the situation had undergone some changes compared to the previous one.
A submarine without the cooperation of surface forces and a submarine with the cooperation of surface forces are completely different concepts. At this moment, the forces of Gazlowe and Grizlik formed the effect of one plus one far greater than two.
"In this battle, I have completely staked my fortune and my life! If I win, I will be the greatest trade king! If we lose... there is no such option! The only way left for us is to win!"
Grizlik was now shouting on the deck, waving the iron hook on his severed hand vigorously.
He knew very well that to attack with the entire fleet of the Six Kings of Kezan was to stake all his wealth and life, as well as the future of the entire Kezan.
Now he finally understood why that guy Streamwilder liked finance so much.
Under the Six Kings' extreme manipulation of public opinion on Kezan Island, the people living on the island did not even know what a severe test the goblins were facing at this time.
Gazlowe sent some coal from Okaz Island to the submarine, and he immediately promoted the idea that the energy crisis had been completely solved.
And Grizlik took the fleet to a decisive battle with the Alliance, which also caused a carnival on the island of Cozan. At least the stock price of Grizzlik's Under Armor Shipping Company soared.
According to the current upward trend of the stock, if Grizlik can win this battle, the market value of his company will be enough to buy the entire Kezan Island!
Of course, if Grizlik loses, then it goes without saying that the stock will definitely become worthless waste paper.
However, Grizlik believed that by that time he would not be able to see himself. If he lost this battle, he would not be able to make it back alive.
The Kozan side's offensive was extremely fierce, with surface forces responsible for attracting firepower and submarines delivering the fatal blow.
The target selection of submarines is very tricky, because every torpedo is very precious to them, and they will never waste the limited number of torpedoes on second-class battleships. The last resort is to choose second-class ships to attack.
On the flying Proudmoore, Daelin's face was filled with anxiety. The enemy's unprecedented attack style really caught him off guard.
What's even worse is that such tactics completely disrupted the battle rhythm of the Kul Tiran Navy, and the soldiers were exhausted both physically and mentally by the enemy's tactics.
The Kul Tiran Navy, which had long been accustomed to traditional sea warfare, felt at this moment that it was hard to return.
In terms of overall quality, the Kul Tiran navy is definitely the best. As long as you dare to give them some time, they will definitely be able to master this style of play as quickly as possible and play it faster than anyone else.
But the problem is that we are on the battlefield now, and the enemy will not give them this time. It really makes people feel that the wave of the times comes so quickly, and appears in this corner of the world unprepared, and will bring indelible consequences to the world in the future.
Impact.
"We must deal with those submarines as soon as possible! Otherwise our capital ships will lose more and more!"
In the second-class ship "Sea Knife", Derek Proudmoore shouted into the cabin. He has grown tremendously since the Battle of Tidefall Island until now.
In this operation, the battleship he commanded was somewhat special, not that his ship was special, but that the people on board were special.
Most of the special spellcasters in the army are concentrated on his ship, including the Deep Sea Loa Priests from the Vast Sea Protector and the Tide Sage from Kul Tiras itself.
The priests of Deep Sea Loa are naturally Niebuhr and his assistants, and the tide sages are led by a sage named Thomas Zelin.
The Tide Sages all come from House Stormsong, one of the four major families in Kul Tiras. They are a very different group of existences in the fleet, and this is also consistent with other families' disapproval of Proudmoore's involvement in the country's wars again and again.
There are criticisms about it.
And ever since Niebuhr brought his assistant on board, some small words began to appear among the tide sages.
Although there is no friction between the two parties on the surface, they may have already concluded in their hearts that the other party believes in false gods.
Perhaps they also took into account that the commander of this ship was little Proudmoore, so both sides gave Derek a certain amount of face, but they all did things on their own, and it was impossible to achieve the expected mutual cooperation.
Niebuhr believed that the priests of Loa could use Grol's power to move freely underwater, and could deal with enemies by themselves.
Thomas Zelling also believes that the Tide Sage can listen to the whispers of the sea, even raise the sea surface, and can deal with enemies alone.
It's a pity that both sides think things are too simple. How easy is it to catch a flexible submarine in the vast sea?
What's more, the battle situation on the sea determines that the Sea Knife cannot come and go at will, which also greatly limits the two teams of casters.
The breaking point of the conflict was that Derek was worried that the next target of the enemy submarine would be his father's flagship, which prompted the two teams to compete to capture the submarine.
Niebuhr directly used Grohl's strength to get up and dive underwater to pursue him.
It may be that his strong Loa power caused disturbances underwater and prevented the Tide Sages from hearing the sound of the sea, so Thomas Zelin forcibly raised a piece of sea water and pulled Niebuhr out of the sea.
However, the two groups' mistakes led to the missed opportunity to capture the enemy. A second-class ship began to sink slowly in front of everyone's eyes.
The mutual accusations started from this moment. At first it was just verbal exchanges, but soon the content of the insults involved insulting the other party's gods, and then it evolved into pushing and shoving each other.
It can only be said that in the high-pressure environment on the battlefield, a small mistake will bring huge pressure to people. Even Niebuhr, who has always been steady, became irrational at this moment.
The person who is under the greatest pressure is, of course, Derek. The enemy is currently on his ship and there is internal strife. As the commander of the ship and the prince of Proudmoore, he is almost overwhelmed by what happens in this moment.
Collapsed under tremendous pressure.
Derek, who was in extreme anxiety, felt like the blood vessels in his forehead were about to burst. At this moment, he was in desperate need of an outlet.
"Shut the fuck up!!!"
Derek yelled curses in a beast-like voice that was unfamiliar to him. His hair almost stood on end, and a light red halo appeared on his body.
Then Derek felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured down on him, and a comfortable cooling feeling spread throughout his body.
He looked around in disbelief. At this moment, everything became extremely clear in his eyes.
