With 20,000 ships, can’t they capture a small island defended by 2,000 ships?
Weiss's failure can only be attributed to his incompetence. In the eyes of several leaders on the giant ship, victory can only be achieved in a matter of seconds.
Although Kerry did not want to deal with these people, he did not want to give up the mission so easily.
A new round of offensive and defensive battle started as scheduled.
The brutality of the battle far exceeded these people's previous expectations.
Yes, they have a military advantage that is difficult for the other party to match, but in this small bay.
Only two to three thousand ships can be dispatched at most at a time. If there are any more, there is a risk of reducing combat effectiveness.
As leaders of a group, these people still have some discernment.
Even though they knew this situation, they didn't pay too much attention to it.
Even if the enemy is stronger and cannot defeat it with two thousand ships, they can exchange four thousand, six thousand or eight thousand ships for the opponent's two thousand ships.
The situation is clear: they can afford losses, but the other party cannot.
However, as the battle continued, their hearts began to sink, and their belief in victory was even shaken.
Every one or two minutes, the enemy would return to the battlefield with a fleet of repaired ships. Although they were angry about this, they could tolerate the feeling of constant reinforcements from the other side.
The enemy's equipment and technology are slightly better than our own, and they can accept it. Their huge numerical advantage is enough to make up for this weakness.
The lethality of the coastal defense artillery is astonishing, but it is not unbearable. They have enough cannon fodder to continue the battle.
However, the enemy leader's excellent command made them hate it, but there was nothing they could do about it.
There are many anemic ships floating on the sea that have been maimed and lost the ability to move and attack. These were deliberately left by the enemy.
The area of this sea area is limited to begin with, and these coffin-like ships take up space. However, they cannot perform any combat functions, but they become a natural cover for the opponent.
If you take the initiative to sink these own people, it will definitely severely damage your own morale. If you don't attack, these ships will become an obstacle to their attack.
The enemy's fleet has always been maintained at around 1,000, and at most it has never exceeded 1,500. However, with only half of our own strength, under the command of the other side, it is like a half-millstone, crushing our own ships every time they go into battle.
turned into powder.
The most frustrating thing is that there are always so many enemies in front of them, as if they have never changed. This is the biggest blow to them.
On the French camp's giant ship, several leaders have not spoken for a long time.
They were fascinated by the battle in front of them, and no one knew what they were thinking.
So far in the battle, they have lost count of how many ships they have lost. Was it five thousand or eight thousand?
Many combat teams have been disabled and retreated to the back to rest.
Anyone with a clear eye can see it. Don't even think about sending them into battle in a short time.
Some people with flexible minds have begun to avoid the battle. Even if they go out to fight, they will try their best to hide behind and do nothing. But if the order to retreat is given, they will run faster than anyone else.
The shadow of failure hung over everyone's head, and some people roared unwillingly. They charged towards the enemy's fleet, and then turned into a ball of fire in the next moment. They immediately sank into the sea.
More people were making their own calculations, calculating the cost of ship repairs and possible rewards. When they came to asymmetric conclusions, some of the most peripheral players quietly slipped away.
Even though these guilds have thousands of people, there may only be dozens of core members, plus hundreds of backbones, and the rest are mostly peripheral members.
It is unrealistic to expect these people to fight to the death against the enemy under adverse circumstances.
From here we can also see why Weiss of the Black Skull and Bones is so arrogant. Even though more than half of his fleet was damaged in the battle, his fleet has not collapsed yet, but it is much stronger than many people present.
"Captain, it's time to replace you next."
"There are still two minutes to go. Your people will hold on first, and let the people below me take a few breaths first."
"Asshole, my people are almost dead and your people are still resting. How can such a good thing happen?"
"Hey, you are so useless that you can't even stand it for ten minutes. You are a waste. You are just a bunch of waste."
"Damn it, who are you calling a loser?"
"..."
System: Player Kerry has withdrawn from the joint combat group.
Upon receiving this prompt, the leaders were all stunned, and all looked towards where Kerry was.
Kori glanced at everyone with an expressionless look, sighed, and without saying anything, he led his crippled fleet towards his own supply point.
After the battle entered an unfavorable stage, these leaders either shirked their responsibilities or blamed each other. Every time they got into trouble, they asked him to clean up the situation.
This time, Kerry was really tired.
He regretted not accepting Weiss's proposal. It was really a stupid thing to place his hopes on such a teammate.
He could no longer see any hope of victory in this battle, so he simply handed over the endgame to the remaining few people and let the other side deal with it.
After Kerry left, the originally powerful and spectacular joint combat group seemed to have lost its adhesive and suddenly fell apart.
"Trash, a bunch of trash, what else can you do besides tricking your teammates? I won't play with you anymore." A big white man said something menacingly, turned around and walked towards his ship.
System: The player captain has withdrawn from the joint combat group.
"Damn it, you coward, coward, what else can you do except talk the talk."
One person cursed and looked at the direction in which the captain was leaving. Without looking at the people around him, he also turned around and walked towards his ship.
System: Player...
In the blink of an eye, there was only one white man with a slight beard left on the giant ship, with a wry smile on his face.
I think when the five of them accepted the mission and set sail, none of them were full of confidence. Who would have thought that it would end like this in the end.
Of the five guilds, he was the only one left. Although he still wanted to continue fighting, he also knew that continuing to fight would only increase casualties, but it would be meaningless.
Watching the ships at the end of their sight begin to retreat, the players in the initial Holy Blood United Fleet did not take it seriously and only thought that the other party was planning to adjust their tactics.
They also took the time to rest or replenish their supplies.
The battle up to this point has not only been painful for the other side, but also for them.
There were more than 2,000 mighty fleets at the time of departure, but now less than 1,000 are still intact here, and almost all the ships are damaged.
The supply points in the port are not large, and there are not many shipyards that can be repaired. When the battle becomes intense, people withdraw from the battlefield every minute and every second.
Even entering the factory for repairs requires a long queue.
In order to ensure the maximum utilization of resources, Wang Hao ordered that repairs of lightly damaged ships be postponed and that severely and moderately damaged ships be repaired first.
Later, this order changed to allow only severely damaged ships to return for repairs, while others continued to fight.
It was precisely because of Wang Hao's order that the casualties of the entire fleet suddenly soared. Many seriously damaged ships were often sunk before they had time to withdraw from the battlefield. If they had retreated earlier, they might not have been able to escape.
will sink.
However, no one in the fleet has expressed dissatisfaction with this. It is not because Wang Hao ranks first in the number of enemy kills, nor is it because the "Piaoxue" has been scarred but has never left the battlefield, nor is it because Wang Hao is a master.
level command.
It was just because Wang Hao acted fairly and treated the members of the two guilds equally, and it was also because Wang Hao was able to lead them to victory.
That's enough.
However, no one thought that victory would come so quickly.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes.
When the player sent to the front for reconnaissance came back and said that no enemy could be seen in this sea area.
The crowd was silent for a moment, and then burst into earth-shattering cheers.
Although the enemy retreated, the time to defend had not yet come, so everyone was waiting with joy.
The offensive and defensive battle at base A0205 was not the first to end among all battlefields, nor was it the most spectacular.
At the A0128 base, there were more than 100,000 players from both sides participating in the battle. The defender also gave up the location of the island. The two sides agreed to start a decisive battle in a wide sea area. The winning side would have ownership of the island.
The British defenders of a015 performed particularly sharply, defeating an equal number of invading enemies in only twenty minutes.
It can be said that the previous defeat made the players in the entire British camp nervous. In order to win this second game, many guild organizations no longer hide their strength.
The same is true for France. In order to ensure the final victory, they also sent the most powerful and gorgeous lineup.
Many players who did not participate in this event expressed regret after seeing the official game battle video. It would be a pity not to personally participate in such a spectacular scene.
In this battle, the most dazzling performers were some large guilds such as the Knights of the Round Table and the Royal Naval Association. They sent out several elite groups to command a large number of affiliated alliances. Each guild was often responsible for three or four small islands.
competition.
More than half of them successfully persisted.
In comparison, the Holy Blood United Fleet has won many victories and defeated enemies ten times their size. It has attracted a lot of people's attention, but in terms of actual contribution, it is far inferior to those large guilds.
From this battle, Wang Haocai deeply felt the power and influence of these old guilds. They easily mobilized more than 100,000 players and still had enough energy to fight on various battlefields.
After receiving this message, Wang Hao and Kerwin remained silent for a long time. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
