"The Northern Army is indeed back to counterattack!" The soldiers of the Ninth Army Corps guarding the watchtower sounded the alarm and issued an alarm to the garrison in the harbor and the town - although every soldier in the Ninth Army knew that the Northern Army
They will launch a counterattack, but when the opponent's army really presses the situation, they still cannot avoid feeling nervous!
On the vast surface of the East China Sea, about a hundred three-masted warships of the Sea Dragon Legion formed a long snake formation and sailed into the Similia harbor with murderous intent. The leading flagship was the famous giant warship "Sea Dragon".
"", it is the exclusive car of Captain Stockton of the Sea Dragon Corps, so when the "Sea Dragon" appears, it means that Captain Stockton of the Sea Dragon Corps personally leads the troops.
After receiving the guard's report, Tracy Milodil and Captain Casper hurried to the shore artillery position at the port. At a glance, they saw the five-masted warship "Sea Dragon" that looked like a giant beast in the sea. Milodil
Dill and Kasbol looked at each other, and their expressions changed at the same time. They never expected that the famous Captain Stockton of the Sea Dragon Army would leave the base camp of Magic Dragon Island and lead an expedition to the Cimmerian Seaport——
"The situation seems a bit bad!" Mirodil frowned and discussed in a low voice with Captain Kasper beside him: "Stockton, who has not been to the battlefield in person for twelve years, actually came here in person.
, I’m afraid our chances of winning today’s battle are not good! According to rumors, Stockton’s own strength is a terrifying great swordsman. Even with the strength of you and me combined - it seems that it will be difficult to resist him.
ah!"
Captain Casper looked solemn and nodded in agreement: "That's true! Leaving aside the personal strength of Captain Stockton of the Sea Dragon Corps - if all the more than one hundred Sea Dragon Corps warships are fully manned, then
But there are more than 10,000 elite warriors! And our Ninth Corps only has 10,000 people at full strength. It is absolutely impossible to defeat the Sea Dragon Legion of the Armada, which has strong ships and powerful artillery!"
Merodil turned his head and looked at the frightened soldiers of the Ninth Corps behind him, and whispered to the commander of the Kasper Corps: "In my opinion, the only solution for now is to abandon the Similia seaport and retreat to the town.
This is the way to go! Using the 3,000 civilians in the town as hostages, the Sea Dragon Legion will not dare to use ship cannons easily, and once they abandon the ship and land ashore, it will be equivalent to the tiger without its minions. Our elite cavalry is just right
You can use your assault advantage to annihilate Stockton and his sea dragon army on land!"
"This is a great plan!" Captain Kasper's expression softened slightly and he agreed: "I have great confidence in fighting the Sea Dragon Legion on the shore! Our Ninth Corps will not lose to any enemy with equal strength!"
"Okay then! It's decided!" Merodil made up his mind and ordered very decisively: "Order all the soldiers guarding the port to return to the town and set up defenses! At the same time, we sent out flying pigeons to ask for reinforcements to be dispatched as soon as possible!"
Captain Stockton of the Sea Dragon Corps, who is almost sixty this year, stands proudly on the bow of the "Sea Dragon". Since he surrendered to the King of the North, Minos, twelve years ago, he has been in charge of the Dragon Island to the North.
All the sea areas along the way have become a veritable territorial sea overlord! For twelve years, the undead dragon flag in the north has been invincible across the seven seas, and no one dares to challenge it, so Stockton never dreamed of decay.
The Black Dragon Empire dared to come to Tai Sui to stir up trouble, and came up with the idea of passing the Similia Seaport, an important supply station on Magic Dragon Island, in the north!
"Does the little emperor Paul IV want to seek his own death - to destroy the Black Dragon Empire?" Stockton, the captain of the Sea Dragon Army, asked his subordinates in confusion, thinking of the invincible sixth-level Demon Dragon King Mourinho and the third-level Demon Dragon King Mourinho.
Even the great elders are no match for Minos, and a young emperor of the Black Dragon Empire is still young - how can he have the confidence to dare to provoke the powerful Northern Alliance?
Serbia, the deputy leader of the Sea Dragon Legion, smiled and replied: "What the leader said is absolutely true! The little emperor Paul IV's rash start of war is really setting himself up for death! However, the peaceful days of the Yama continent have been going on for too long, and some people have ulterior motives.
Many young careerists have never seen the power of Lord Minos, so they can’t help but want to compete with Lord Minos!”
"They are just a group of idiots who overestimate their capabilities!" Captain Stockton of the Sea Dragon Corps snorted coldly, focusing his gaze on the Cimmeria Harbor shore artillery position in front, and said calmly: "We have a
More than a thousand ship-borne artillery can easily destroy the entire Cimmerian harbor with just one salvo. If my guess is correct - the garrison generals on the other side will definitely abandon their harbor positions and instead enter the Cimmerian town and fight with them.
Let's fight on the ground!"
Deputy Commander Serbia put away his smile, nodded and said: "If I were to defend the Similia harbor, I would definitely choose this tactic. Our army is good at naval warfare, not land warfare. Giving up strong ships and guns for landing operations is tantamount to committing suicide.
Cut off limbs and use short strikes to make long ones!"
"Yes!" Captain Stockton of the Sea Dragon Corps smiled slightly and said sternly, stroking his beard: "This is exactly what the enemy general had planned! Although the town of Similia was nominally assigned to
The northern border is under the jurisdiction of the Black Dragon Empire, but it actually still belongs to the territory of the Black Dragon Empire. Therefore, it is very convenient to dispatch reinforcements from the interior of the Black Dragon Empire to the small town of Cimmeria. I guess the defenders want to huddle in the small town to delay time. Once our army is in trouble,
If we are dragged into a tense battle by the defenders - then the Black Dragon Empire's backup group can counterattack us and annihilate our troops on the beach!"
"The concerns of the Legion Commander are not unreasonable!" Deputy Commander Serbia frowned and asked with a worried look on his face: "Then do we want to abandon the ship and go ashore to launch a ground attack?"
"Of course!" Captain Stockton of the Sea Dragon Corps laughed without hesitation and said: "Lord Minos has secretly sent a team of elites to help - with their help, we still won't be able to capture the small west.
Milia town?”
At 8:45 a.m. on July 2, 203 in the Black Dragon Empire, more than a hundred expedition warships of the Sea Dragon Legion successfully recaptured the Similia harbor without firing a single shot, and deployed to the shore to land.
The small boat transported a total of 8,000 infantry warriors - Captain Stockton of the Sea Dragon Corps insisted on personally commanding this ground battle. He and his eight captains led a large number of infantry into a square formation and marched mightily.
Approaching the outer positions of Similia town from three directions: left, center and right.
Tracy Mirodil stood side by side with Captain Kasper on top of the newly built wooden fence, paying close attention to the moving direction of the Sea Dragon Legion's infantry phalanx. Behind them were three thousand elite cavalry and cavalrymen waiting in formation.
There are seven thousand infantry soldiers, so from the bottom of their hearts they are not afraid of the Sea Dragon Corps ground troops who do not have an advantage in numbers - Milodil pointed at the Sea Dragon Corps Commander Stockton under his command, and pointed at the Casper Corps next to him.
Chang whispered: "Look! That old man should be Stockton himself. He is probably almost sixty years old this year. We may be able to use his weakness of old age and lack of physical strength to consume his strength!"
Captain Kasper nodded in agreement: "Our army has the advantage of cavalry. With three thousand cavalry against an old man in his sixties who is over fifty years old - there will definitely be no problem!"
Merodil smiled slightly, and turned his head with the same confidence and said: "Heso! The more than one hundred Sea Dragon Legion warships on the sea are our most serious concern! Do you have any good ideas to sink them?
"
Heisuo, who had been standing behind Milodil to observe the enemy's situation, was slightly startled. He thought for a while and replied with some embarrassment: "Our magic gunpowder has long been used up! Although my subordinates can come and go freely on the seabed, but
It is difficult for me to sink more than a hundred enemy three-masted warships with my own strength!"
"Alas! It will be difficult if we cannot sink the warships on the sea!" Mirodil sighed and frowned helplessly: "Even if we achieved victory on the ground battlefield, as long as Stockton still has
With a retreat at sea - he can advance, attack, retreat or defend, and become completely invincible!"
