The visibility on the sea today is extremely high, and it is endless as far as the eye can see.
this moment,
Those who were still holding the defensive line under Philip's leadership showed shock and disbelief in their eyes.
Almost everyone saw the abnormality of the magic energy beam shooting out just now.
If it weren't for the roar still echoing in my ears,
They simply couldn't believe that they had just witnessed the astonishing scene of Tianlan Royal Navy's battleship being sunk by a round of fire!
Everyone hasn’t come back to their senses yet,
The second round of artillery fire destroyed the group of defecting veteran nobles into ashes...
...
"My dear... Is this a direct beheading plan? I'm afraid no one would have thought of what Archduke Philip did."
Seeing these two rounds of artillery made Raymond's heart agitate, and he couldn't help but shout "Big Brother 666".
Before the warring parties even met, Archduke Philip killed the opponent's "king" in one round?
If he knew at this moment that this was the personal expedition of "Saro I", he would probably be even more shocked.
"Tsk, tsk... five 'Sea King-class' artillery pieces. I didn't expect Philip's technological level to be able to forge such high-weight artillery pieces!"
Raymond only roughly estimated the range, and immediately guessed the magnitude of these five artillery pieces.
Logically speaking, this kind of thing is impossible to appear in remote waters like the Black Sea.
Just like in previous lives, do you dare to imagine the shock of the 16th century when someone was still fighting with gunpowder and flintlock guns, and suddenly someone took out a Barrett and killed a child with one shot from a long distance away?
Artillery of this magnitude and the vastness of the Black Sea cannot be seen anywhere except for a few intimidating decorations at the gate of the Navy branch.
Even the well-informed Raymond never thought that Philip's trump card would be this kind of thing.
Come to think of it, this is probably a drawing left by the vampire boss.
However, even if there are blueprints, it is not easy to forge them based on the level of Black Sea craftsmen. If you want to get these five Sea King cannons with limited engineering machinery, it is no easier than killing another lava dragon.
"I'm afraid Archduke Philip should have started planning all this ten or twenty years ago."
Raymond praised in his heart, his eyes shining brightly.
He was really shocked by Archduke Philip's magical operation.
A round of artillery bombardment, beheading the top local general,
The second round of shelling shocked Xiao Xiao,
The situation suddenly became clear!
This is the advantage of having long hands. I can hit you, but I can't do anything to you.
The balance of war suddenly tilted back from a one-sided situation...
The range of these five Sea King-class artillery pieces is two or three times that of the Tianlan Royal Navy's top artillery.
This is definitely a killer weapon that affects the final outcome of the battle!
"With the 'Sea King' level magic artillery, maybe we can turn defeat into victory in this battle?"
If I had known that there was such a big killer, why would I have bothered so much?
Thinking of this, Raymond felt happy, but then he frowned again.
He muttered again: "That's not right... The energy quality required to drive this kind of high-level magic artillery is very high, at least level seven or eight beast cores. The two rounds of artillery just now cost at least several million gold coins...
"
(1 gold coin = 10,000 quarks)
Moreover, money comes second.
The key is that the Philip Territory does not have the ability to capture seventh or eighth level monsters!
The sixth-level lava dragon almost wiped out this territory. How could there be a large number of high-level beast cores to recharge the magic artillery?
Considering this factor, Raymond's eyelids jumped suddenly.
Now it seems,
These five Sea King-level magic cannons are probably more effective in intimidating people than in actual combat.
With these five ultra-long-range magic cannons standing here, those large ships of the Tianlan Royal Navy will definitely not dare to approach rashly. But those guys will definitely not be scared back by these few cannons. So next,
They probably have no choice but to use small boats to disperse and land to search, harass and attack...
Now Raymond suddenly wanted to understand the meaning of what Archduke Philip said to him before, "So, this is the shelling that the lord mentioned before? And then... and the subsequent landing and street fighting?"
People on the Tianlan fleet probably also guessed that there must be a limit to the firing of this "Sea King Cannon". But as long as these cannons are still there, they will not dare to use large warships to occupy Philip Territory through numerical suppression.
Who knows how many more rounds that Sea King-class artillery can fire?
Maybe not even one round can be opened,
But the people in Tianlan Fleet did not dare to gamble.
"It turns out that Archduke Philip had already planned to reach this point..."
Raymond looked at it and sighed,
These five Sea King cannons are the only piece of good news in these two long days of bad news.
Without the threat of artillery suppression from large warships, the Philippe Territory also had a slight advantage as the defensive side.
but,
The existence of these sea king cannons only delayed the defeat.
Seriously injured elephants will still be cannibalized by ants.
"Hey, the situation is over. No wonder Archduke Philip plans to fight to the death. It seems that I will have to carefully find out where the landing ship "No. 8815" is..."
Thinking of this, Raymond took out his telescope and observed it carefully.
in the lens,
While the large ships continued to retreat, the small landing ships, densely packed like marching ants, were slowly spreading out on the sea.
...
Who was frightened the most by the two rounds of artillery bombardment just now, it had to be the people of the Clive family.
Especially in the second round of artillery, all the "surrenderers" headed by the Rodney family were annihilated by the artillery fire, frightening those who had not had time to escape to the point of bursting with fear.
This shot demonstrated Archduke Philip's ruthless attitude towards traitors.
Even if it means wasting a round of firepower, he will never let go of these guys who defect in battle!
"It turns out...we were really wrong."
Those clan elders who a moment ago were clamoring to depose old Clive as clan leader are now even more horrified.
If they had really defected with the Rodri family just now, they would probably have become dead souls under fire at this moment.
At this moment, they looked at old Clive again, as if they had seen a god.
It turns out that the head of the family's order to stand still was not because he became a coward in the face of the battle, but because he really had foresight!
What's ridiculous is that the second before the two rounds of shelling started, they were still plotting how to directly vote out the head of the family, and then control the ship island to quickly leave Philip's Territory, a place of right and wrong that was destined to be engulfed in war, and follow the Rodney family.
Go to a new owner.
Thinking about it now, this childish idea almost sent all of them to hell.
Old Clive ignored the shocked clan elders and slowly walked to the deck.
"Sure enough, you guessed everything..."
He looked in the direction of the Philip Academy and murmured to himself: "My son has become a hero..."
As the sea breeze blew, old Clive felt that he was really old.
Excited, gratified, happy, sad...
He had mixed feelings in his heart, and he burst into tears for a while.
"Madam, have you ever seen this scene in heaven... The person directing this drama is not the Rodney family, nor the Tianlan royal family, but our former frail and sickly son, Little Meyer... "
...
At the same time, a World Government Navy warship flying the seagull flag slowly sailed into the battlefield.
This is a warship.
The World Government Navy will not directly participate in any normal war between dynasties. They are only responsible for monitoring the war situation to see if anyone violates the war convention, but they will not interfere with the outcome of the war.
Coincidentally, the admiral on the warship saw the scene where the Haiwang cannon sank the main ship of Tianlan Navy.
There were two people standing alone on the deck of the warship. The first one was wearing a cloak of justice with black characters on a white background, while the other was a mysterious man shrouded in black robes.
If there are any outsiders here, they will definitely be shocked by the golden star on the navy's shoulders, because this is a navy star! His military rank is even higher than that of the highest commander of the Black Sea Navy Division, "Red Tiger" Colonel Simon Lopez is two steps higher.
If Raymond is here, he must know that this admiral is Vice Admiral Kim Ackerman of the Endless Sea Navy Headquarters.
"'Sea King-level magic artillery'? It seems that Capone left some small things for his descendants..."
Ackerman smacked his lips and muttered with a very interested expression: "However, since Philip VIII has done this, the Tianlan royal family will probably fight to the death even more. Tell me, what on earth do he think? of?"
"Sir Lieutenant General, if you exist at this level, are you still interested in caring about such a small fight in remote sea areas?"
The man in black robe was obviously not interested, even the few Sea King cannons didn't let him take another glance.
He looked at Ackerman and said nothing, and then said: "Mr. Ackerman, if your navy wants to take the things Capone left, can't you just go and get them yourself? With your cultivation level, it is difficult to return this small corner of the Black Sea. Who can stop your existence? You don’t have to do anything to bring me here..."
"Who knows?"
Ackerman did not answer directly, but looked far away and said: "Tsk tsk... We didn't expect that Capone could dissolve the 'God's Power' in such a short time, and also caused General Qianhe to suffer a big loss... .”
"What? That old guy Qianzuru actually suffered a loss?"
The man in black robe's eyelids twitched when he heard this, and his expression became ugly.
He probably understood it, and guessed: "You suspect that there may be some forces beyond your control in this little noble's territory, so... you want me to clear mines for you?"
His tone was somewhat resentful, but it was clear and helpless.
"Otherwise? You have no use at all. Why would I bring you here?"
Ackerman smiled coldly and said, "Is it possible that you still want to go back to the prison in the 'Chaotic Wind Belt' and stay there for a hundred years?"
"Don't, don't, don't... From now on, you, Lieutenant General, will do whatever you arrange. I won't ask any more questions. How about this? I don't want to go back to that ghost place again."
When the man in black robe heard this, his neck shrank, as if he thought of something terrible, and he pursed his lips and said, "Sir, do you have any other orders? Do you want me to find something and then kill all these people?"
"Don't talk nonsense. You came here because of your own greed, and it has nothing to do with our navy."
"..."
"However, Capone's descendants still don't want to stay."
"Okay, I'll do as you say. Anyway, it's not the first time that we vicious pirates have taken the blame..."
"Looking at your tone, do you still have any objections?"
"How dare you."
"hehe."
Ackerman shrugged noncommittally, with a sneer in his eyes. The way he looked at the man in black robes always had the contempt of a superior treating a slave.
The breeze blows, the cloak of justice rustles, and the tall back is like a mountain.
...
On a battleship of Tianlan Royal Navy.
The Fourth Prince Joyce Rosa and the Vice President of the Tianlan Royal Naval Academy, Alwin, were having a secret conversation.
"Tsk tsk... I didn't expect to encounter such a surprise when I came out this time. Teacher, do you think I should do something now?"
Joyce's tone was brisk, as if he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart.
Hearing this, Elwin said calmly: "The Golden Lion was sunk just now, and His Majesty was seriously injured. His life and death are unknown now... However, Your Highness, you'd better not act rashly."
Joyce's tone was a little eager, and he said: "But my dear brothers have already boarded the landing craft impatiently... They want to get the head of Philip VIII first, so that this shocking Their military exploits become a bargaining chip for them to seize the throne."
In the world of great navigation, the strong are respected, and the heir to the throne is determined by virtue rather than by virtue.
Salo I deliberately cultivated Gu and wanted to select the most suitable heir, so the position of the first heir to the throne has been unresolved. This also caused the princes who were harmonious on the surface to have constant internal conflicts in private.
Salo I is now in his prime. He is also a high-level transcendent of Sequence 5. He has a long lifespan. It is probably no accident that these princes have exhausted their lifespan, and they may not be able to survive until the old king dies.
Therefore, if they want to ascend the throne as soon as possible, the old king must have an "accident"!
And it happened that His Majesty the King, who was so talented and strategic, had a whim and decided to go on a personal expedition. I thought it would be a near-miss battle of annihilation, but I didn't expect such a huge accident!
Although for the rest of the Tianlan Dynasty, it was a shocking and tragic news that the king was injured and his life or death was unknown. But for these princes, it had to be said to be a surprise from heaven.
At this moment, all the princes had the same thought,
If their father was really killed by shelling this time, then Philip VIII would naturally be the culprit. Whoever can get his head will have the absolute right to inherit the throne.
No wonder Joyce was so impatient.
At this moment,
A sharp light flashed in Elwin's eyes, and he squinted and said: "Philip's leadership is very deep. Those who go first may not get the first prize, and may be used as cannon fodder... Your Highness, you don't have to worry, I have my own arrangements."
"In this case, it will cost the teacher more trouble."
Hearing this, the fourth prince showed a satisfied smile. His enigmatic mentor had said this, and he was really relieved.
...
The five Sea King cannons did not fire again,
The small-scale shelling soon stopped.
Philip's territory has experienced a surging tide of beasts, and its defense strength has been shattered to pieces.
Those in the Tianlan fleet encountered little decent resistance and smoothly rushed into the island through the gap opened by the sea beasts.
Raymond put down his telescope and probably figured out where the ship "No. 8815" was docked.
He greeted Eileen beside him and let out a long breath.
