Two Four Four: Overwhelming Victory! Welcome to Hell!
Gui Xingfu, Tu Liwen, Hai Wuyan, Ashizhuo, Tu Lingchen and others were all on their respective flagships.
When they first saw Sauron's Queen's Island fleet, their hearts were shocked.
Unexpectedly, Sauron actually took the initiative to go north to fight with just a hundred small ships and seven thousand rock bandits.
With one-tenth of his strength, he dared to take the initiative. This is really crazy.
No matter how powerful the Rock Bandit is, one to two is great, but one to ten has no chance of winning.
But what followed was a burst of ecstasy. I was originally worried about Sauron escaping, but now I can fight hand to hand, catch the turtle in the jar, and completely resolve the battle within a few hours.
Tully's flagship began to bark orders.
"Open your huge arse."
Then, the ships around him conveyed the orders to the surrounding ships one after another.
"Crunch, crunch..."
Suddenly, the ships at the front of the queue opened their giant guns one after another.
This giant gun can shoot giant arrows weighing dozens of kilograms nearly 400 meters away. It can be regarded as a weapon of mass destruction on ships.
Of course, the truly powerful lethal distance is only two hundred meters.
The Rock Queen did not issue the order directly, but waved the flag directly on the flagship.
Immediately, the hundreds of Queen's Island fleets all adjusted their sails, their speed stagnated, and they no longer planned to move forward, but stopped in place.
The coalition fleet headed south at full speed.
This giant fleet of thousands of ships really looks like a huge liger.
And Sauron's Queen's Island fleet really looks like a rabbit.
The distance between the fleets of both sides is getting closer and closer.
five thousand meters.
Three thousand meters.
One thousand meters.
Eight hundred meters!
At this time, all the heavy hammer lever trebuchets on the Queen's Island fleet have been prepared.
The fireball bombs in the throwing plate are also ready.
The distance between the two fleets is six hundred meters.
Queen Yanchuoer gave an order.
Suddenly, the warriors behind each trebuchet lit fire, igniting the fireballs in the throwing tray.
This dozens of kilograms of fireball bombs were wrapped in a can with cloth strips. The cloth strips were all soaked in fish oil and burned brightly when ignited.
However, the fish oil in the clay pot will not be ignited. When it is thrown out and hits an enemy ship, the clay pot will explode and the fish oil inside will splash everywhere and be ignited instantly, making it almost difficult to extinguish.
Of course, this clay pot can also be filled with crude oil. But in that case, the real top-secret killer weapon may be exposed, so Sauron used fish oil instead. Although this would increase the cost of each kerosene bomb by more than a hundred times.
"emission……"
Queen Yanchuoer gave a sudden order.
Suddenly, the warrior behind the trebuchet slammed down and released the tight confinement of the trebuchet.
The heavy hammer slid, generating extremely huge kinetic energy, and used a long lever to throw out the hundreds of kilograms of kerosene bombs.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
More than a hundred trebuchets were all launched. Many rock pirates felt that the ship under their feet shook violently, as if it was about to capsize.
One hundred flaming kerosene bombs streaked through the air with thick smoke and flames, like meteors, flying fiercely towards the rope-killing fleet, making a harsh whistling sound in the air.
Seeing this scene, Tu Liwen, Gui Xingyuan and others on the Destroying Fleet were shocked.
This, what kind of weapon is this, can it be thrown so...so far?
A full four to five hundred meters away?
Of course, this distance is not uncommon, and many powerful giants can reach it.
However, the end of strong sex cannot penetrate paper.
And the lethality of these dozens or hundreds of kilograms of things shot down from high altitudes is completely incomparable.
"Bang bang bang..."
Hundreds of blazing fireballs flew over a distance of four to five hundred meters before shooting fiercely... into the sea.
Yes, that's the hit rate of this tragedy.
Out of more than a hundred fireball rounds, only three hit.
Moreover, this is absolutely related to the too dense fleet of destroyers, otherwise the hit rate would not even be one percent.
This hit rate was exactly what Sauron imagined.
but……
With only three hits, the effect was astonishing.
The fireball bombs weighing dozens or even hundreds of kilograms hit the ship hard, and the clay pot wrapped in cloth exploded violently. The fish oil inside sprayed out, and burned fiercely when it encountered fire.
This fire covers more than ten square meters and is extremely difficult to extinguish.
"It's fish oil." City Lord Tullywen could tell it after smelling the thick smoke.
"Fish oil?" Turingchen sneered: "Sauron is really rich, and he is really willing to spend a lot of money."
Fish oil is boiled from live fish, and the price of a pound of fish oil is about forty copper coins. In other words, the cost of burning fish oil with kerosene requires more than a dozen silver coins, one-third of a gold coin, converted
It costs more than 4,000 yuan per piece in earthly renminbi.
There is no way, the productivity level of this world is too low, whether it is candles, tung oil, or fish oil, they are all very expensive.
Sauron's first round of attacks knocked out dozens of gold coins.
Hai Wuyan took a breath of air and said, "Fish oil bomb, this Sauron is really rich."
…
In the first round of firing, only three kerosene bombs hit.
Then, a dozen or twenty rock bandits desperately pulled the trebuchet lever and prepared for the second round of launch.
At the same time, the Rock Queen ordered the sail to change direction.
Originally, it had been going north, but then it stopped, and now it was ordered to go south.
"call……"
Suddenly, a hundred rock pirate fleets followed the wind and headed south.
Rock Island's ships have one characteristic, that is, they are small and fast!
Two quarters of an hour later, the distance between the two fleets was once again increased by more than a thousand meters.
The second round of launch of more than a hundred trebuchets has also been prepared.
The Queen of Rock ordered that the fleet change the sails again, stop rowing, and half-stop in place, waiting for the approach of the Suspension Fleet.
Close, eight hundred meters, six hundred meters, five hundred meters, four hundred meters...
"emission……"
"emission……"
Both sides gave orders simultaneously!
"Swish, swish, swish..."
Hundreds of giant powerful weapons flew out from the Suozu fleet.
From Sauron's fleet, a hundred trebuchets were launched in unison.
"Huhuhu..."
More than a hundred fireballs followed gorgeous trajectories, whizzing towards the Suspension Fleet.
And hundreds of giant arrows roared towards Sauron's fleet.
After a few full seconds.
"Bang bang bang..."
"Bang bang bang bang..."
Sauron's second round of fire oil bombs, more than a hundred rounds, hit... four rounds!
"Boom, boom, boom..." Four more ships of the cable-killing fleet burned fiercely, and dozens of soldiers were buried in the sea of fire.
The surrounding sailors were pouring water to extinguish the fire.
There seems to be progress, but everything is accidental.
The giant arrows of the Destroying Fleet had a higher hit rate, with more than a dozen giant arrows hitting Sauron's ship.
but……
Launched from a distance of 400 meters, it is absolutely the ultimate force. Even if it hits, it is just a bump, with almost no damage.
When Sauron saw this scene, he had only one feeling in his heart.
No wonder water battles in this era basically involved ships from both sides approaching each other, first firing bows and arrows at each other, and then boarding the ship to fight.
Because of this kind of long-distance fighting, whether it is a trebuchet or a giant gun, the hit rate is too pathetic.
I think this kind of naval battle can really last until next year as long as we have enough ammunition.
…
Next, the naval battle became a stalemate.
Sauron's fleet's tactics are very simple. They take advantage of their speed and immediately move away after launching, keeping distance from the enemy fleet, and then prepare for the second round of launching.
This is completely a Japanese style of play. Never get closer than two or three hundred meters to the opponent's fleet.
The only difference is that although the kerosene bombs thrown by Sauron have a weird hit rate, once they hit, they will bring huge damage to the enemy ship.
Although the hit rate of the giant gun of the Destroying Fleet is higher, it has almost no lethality at a distance of four hundred meters.
Therefore, the behemoth of the coalition fleet actually fell into a situation where it was completely passive and vulnerable to attack.
There is only one reason. Sauron's rock pirate fleet is faster and can distance itself at will.
So, the next two fleets fought from dawn to dusk, and then again until dawn.
A full day of fighting**.
Sauron's rock pirate fleet fired a hundred rounds and fired more than 10,000 kerosene bombs.
The coalition fleet also fired a hundred rounds and fired tens of thousands of giant arrows.
The hit rate of Sauron's kerosene bombs never exceeded 4%. In one day, only three to four hundred kerosene bombs hit the Suolan destroyer fleet.
The result of the battle was that more than a thousand of the opponent's navy were killed.
Sunk five of the opponent's ships and damaged dozens more.
Sauron's fleet suffered even less losses, with not a single battleship sunk and less than a hundred casualties.
However, the trebuchet has been broken several times, and the expensive leather ropes on it have been replaced several times.
And even so, nearly ten trebuchets have been damaged beyond repair.
The casualties of the Suo's Allied Forces were actually very minimal, but on this day, they were completely overwhelmed by the Suo's fleet.
The leaders of the four families almost flew into a rage, scolding Sauron for being too despicable, and kept fighting without giving him any chance to get closer.
Otherwise, in at most an hour, 70,000 Suo Suo navy troops could completely annihilate Sauron's Rock Pirate fleet, killing every one of them.
…
The two fleets fought from dusk to dawn, and from dawn to dusk.
Another day of fighting.
So far, Sauron has sunk six ships of the local fleet, damaged hundreds of ships, and killed nearly 3,000 people of the opposing navy.
The losses of Sauron's fleet were still minimal.
Because he still uses despicable tactics and will never get close to the enemy fleet. With a distance of 400 meters, the powerful guns of the Allied Forces will not cause fatal damage at all.
However, the bad news is that more than 20% of his more than one hundred trebuchets have been damaged.
…
Another day passed**.
Another day passed**.
Even though they take turns to rest and fight.
However, both fleets were completely exhausted.
In the next two days, Sauron's fleet continued to suppress its opponents, but the results were even more negligible.
This fight lasted for four days and four nights. Only ten ships of the coalition fleet were sunk, and the navy's casualties were only more than 5,000.
The casualties suffered by Sauron's fleet were still minimal.
but……
The damage rate of the trebuchet has exceeded half.
Moreover, the kerosene bombs are almost exhausted.
During these days and nights of fighting, we sailed southward for more than two thousand miles while fighting.
At this time, we have reached the waters of Rock Island.
However, Sauron's rock pirate fleet did not stop at any time and continued southward.
"Lord Tullywen, ahead is the Saltworks of Rock Island, and Sauron's fleet has not stopped at all." A navy general reported.
Tullywen ordered a ship to sail close to the rocky island to investigate the situation.
As a result, the entire Rock Island Salt Field was deserted, and there was not a single ship on the sea. Sauron completely gave up on the Rock Island Salt Field.
"City Lord, do you want to send troops to occupy the rock salt field?" a navy general asked.
"Why are you so anxious? This rocky salt field doesn't have long legs, so it won't run away." Tully said.
"Earl Tully, Sauron's fleet is about to escape. They have run out of kerosene bombs." Turingchen said.
Earl Tullywen raised his eyes and saw that Sauron's fleet had indeed been heading south without stopping to fire oil bombs.
"Pursue at full speed!" Lord Tullywen ordered.
Immediately, thousands of ships in the Mingsuo fleet, with their sails fully spread, moved southward at full speed to pursue them.
"Sauron can't run away." Turingchen said.
Lord Tully nodded.
In the past few days and nights, Sauron seemed to have the upper hand, but his fate was destined to be destroyed.
Yes, Sauron's fleet is very fast because of its small ship, but the fresh water and food on board are limited, and there is no supply fleet behind it, so how many days can he last?
Running out of ammunition and food?
Sauron's fleet would be dead if it floated on the sea, and once he chose to land, he would be seeking death even more.
In short, the thousands of ships of the Suolan Destruction Fleet are just holding on to Sauron, waiting for him to run out of ammunition and food, or waiting for him to land.
No matter what, it's a dead end.
Next, both fleets stopped attacking.
Sauron desperately fled south, destroyed the Sauron coalition fleet, and pursued desperately.
…
Sunset time!
Sauron's fleet entered the waters of Tianshui City and was still more than a hundred miles away from Devil's Harbor.
This is the burial place set by Sauron for his enemies.
As for the Susuo-Destroying Fleet, it was just behind, and the distance was no more than a hundred miles!
Sauron looked at the Rock Queen and said, "Aunt, it's time to lead them into hell. Do you think they will follow?"
"I will definitely do it," Yan Chuo'er said.
In the past few days and nights, the coalition fleet has been suppressed and beaten by Sauron. He is completely furious and wants to peel off his skin and cramps. He will not let him escape.
Moreover, the location for the Allied Forces' landing was also chosen at Devil's Harbor, which is almost the only place suitable for large-scale landings.
As night falls, darkness swallows everything.
Sauron's eyes flashed with a devilish light, and he said coldly: "Enter Devil's Harbor."
At the same time, hundreds of cargo ships were anchored in Devil's Bay. The ships contained nearly 100,000 barrels of crude oil, weighing tens of millions of kilograms.
This astronomical amount of crude oil can completely turn this bay into a burning hell and completely swallow up the entire cable-killing fleet!
By then, hundreds of miles of sea will be burning.
Four coalition fleets, thousands of ships, there is no way to escape!
In a terrifying silence, Sauron's rock pirate fleet sailed into the Devil's Bay.
Tens of thousands of meters behind, the allied fleet was vast and overwhelming, pursuing them closely.
Thousands of ships and hundreds of thousands of troops are gradually sailing into hell!
