"Your Excellency, a fleet is approaching!"

Taoglu said calmly: "Is Count Lyman back?"

Judging by the time, Lyman's fleet repelled the invading enemy and was almost back in port at this time.

"No...it's the Ming Dynasty fleet!"

"What?"

Taoglu immediately frowned and said in a deep voice: "How is it possible for the Ming Dynasty fleet?"

"Your Majesty, Duke Qi, it was discovered by the patrol ship we sent out. The other party's ships are very large and numerous, and their flagships are very... different!"

"what is the difference?"

"Without mast and sail."

Taoglu was very puzzled and asked: "Are you awake? There is no mast or sail. Tell me how it moves? Does it rely on the magical witchcraft of the East?"

"I don't know, but...there really is no mast, and it's very fast...

Duke Taoglu's face became gloomy. He did not believe that there was witchcraft in this world. He had also seen Eastern ships. In terms of technical level, hull size, and quantity, they were definitely better than the Ottoman fleet.

One step ahead.

The ship has a huge hull and no masts... Impossible, there is no such ship in this world!

"The information is wrong, let's go investigate again!"

"Your Excellency, the opponent's fleet is extremely fast and is approaching the port."

Taoglu's eyes were slightly closed. He couldn't figure out the situation at all. If he was dazzled and his description of the enemy ship was wrong, maybe he was too far away and couldn't see clearly. However, the distance was

It can't be wrong.

You know, Count Lyman has a total of fifty ships in his hands, and his strength cannot be underestimated.

If it was really the Ming Dynasty's fleet that came over, there was only one possibility. This fleet came from the Ming Dynasty itself.

It seems that the matter is far more serious than I imagined.

"Send the order, everyone, prepare to fight!"

"yes!"

The herald left in a hurry, and Taoglu put on his military uniform, pinned the medal of highest honor on his chest, and walked out of the room.

Several major generals have received orders and are gathering their troops, and the entire port is busy.

Immediately afterwards, the rapid bell rang, and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Duke Taoglu, who was dressed in military uniform.

"Othman's fellow warriors, the time has come for the decisive battle!"

Taoglu stood on a high platform and shouted: "The Ming Dynasty's fleet has arrived, but they made a mistake, a huge mistake!"

"That's their ignorance and arrogance. They don't know that any force is vulnerable to the invincible Ottoman navy!"

"These Easterners don't know what is about to happen, so let us tell them that next, the brave and fearless Ottoman navy will defeat them head-on!"

"Notify all soldiers to prepare for battle, prepare muskets and artillery, board our warships, and then welcome a new victory!"

"In God's name, people from the East will regret coming here!"

Taoglu was very decisive in issuing orders. He was confident that he would win this battle and let the Ming army from the east be buried under the sea.

The order was passed on, and the Ottoman navy began to board the ship.

They shouted loudly, pulled hard on the sail, and then pulled up the anchor.

Amidst the huge sound of waves, the Ottoman fleet showed a perfect formation and sailed towards the Ming fleet.

As the sun sets in the west, the sea surface illuminated by the afterglow shows a bright red color.

On the flagship King Muhad, Taoglu clearly saw the other side's ships through the telescope.

What puzzled him was that the other party's ship seemed to have no mast!

Moreover, the sheer number of them is mind-numbing.

From a distance, the field of vision is almost covered, at least there are more than a hundred ships.

But, so what?

He still believed that the Ming army's ships were nothing more than that. No matter how many there were, they were nothing more than living targets on the sea.

"Full speed ahead, ready to fight!"

Behind him was all the power of the Ottoman navy, with more than three hundred ships.

The gun muzzle on the ship has been raised, and the black barrel pokes out.

The sails on the King Harder were making noise, and the sailors were skillfully controlling the turntable as the opponent approached.

As a flagship pilot, he needs to find the best angle to expose the opponent's hull to his own artillery, and then... destroy them!

Behind the flagship, the ships on both wings had already begun to tacitly circle around, preparing to intercept it.

Yes, they even calculated each other's escape route.

Like a pack of hungry wolves hunting prey, they cooperate with each other and prepare to bite each other's throats.

The remaining light of the setting sun has completely turned red, like blood.

Close!

A smile appeared at the corner of Taoglu's mouth. It doesn't matter if there are many, it doesn't matter if it is big, it's not...

etc!

The smile on his face gradually became stiff, because through the telescope tube, he saw that the opponent's ship seemed to reflect a metallic light.

what's the situation?

Taoglu thought he was dazzled, so he rubbed his eyes and picked up the telescope again.

The distance between the two sides got closer. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the other side's ship, reflecting the metallic light. This time, they could see clearly.

armor?

Taoglu looked at the tall armored ship in his field of vision in astonishment, billowing thick smoke and heading towards him.

At that moment, he had some doubts.

Did it just get violent?

No, I didn’t sleep just now!

When he was doubting his life, the huge iron armor had revealed its hideous appearance.

The hull of the ship is covered with dark muzzles, like monsters from the abyss, slowly opening their claws.

Taoglu finally realized why the herald would say such things.

Are Orientals devils from hell?

Although he didn't know why the enemy ships were covered in iron armor or why they were emitting black smoke, he knew that he had no way out.

At this point, no matter what kind of monster we face, we can only give it a try.

"soldiers!"

Taoglu composed himself and began to deliver his final speech: "God is taking care of us. No matter whether the opponent is a man or a devil, the Ottoman navy is invincible. Listen to my orders and prepare the artillery..."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Boom!

Before his speech ended, a low roar came from the sea.

Boom!

Boom!

Countless cannon shots rang out, Taoglu quickly picked up his telescope, and then saw flames coming out of the opponent's ship.

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind.

Why did the Ming army's artillery fire from the front instead of sideways?

The shell drew a beautiful arc from the sky and landed directly on the deck of the King Harder.

Boom!

The huge explosion blew the entire deck away, flames shot into the sky, sawdust flew everywhere, and there was a wailing sound.

Before Taoglu even understood the situation, he was already thrown away by the shock wave of the explosion.

The people on the boat went crazy. They only knew that the cannonballs were solid iron lumps. How could they explode?

Subsequently, more explosive bombs struck and fell among the Ottoman fleet.

Boom!

Boom!

Amidst bursts of explosions, countless ships began to sink.
