On the sea level, a cloud of black smoke spread with the wind, and it had the power to block out the sky and the sun.
Off the coast of Ossa, a fisherman on a fishing boat was attracted by the black smoke in the distance. He didn't know what happened, but simply thought of the "Marine Fishery Safety Warning" issued yesterday.
The warning said that the devil's fleet is now rampant on the sea. It is hoped that all fishermen will be careful when going out to fish and not leave the offshore easily to avoid danger.
He looked nervously at the sea level to the south, and then asked his son to quickly put away the fishing net that had not yet been opened: "Quick! Put it away quickly! Let's hold on tight and get out of here."
Their fishing boats are still sailing boats, and those new ships are owned by the Eiland Hill Company and those big companies.
The famous Ireland Fisheries is a state-owned marine fishing organization. It has many diesel-powered boats and is the envy of all seaside fishermen.
There are even some ice-cold boats that can freeze and keep the valuable sea fish fresh immediately after catching it, making it more delicious than the sea fish caught by ordinary fishermen.
In addition to state-owned enterprises, Eiland Hill also has numerous large fishing fleets, all of which are companies established by nobles and royal families. The more famous Corning family's fleet has hundreds of fishing boats of various models.
However, due to the relationship between time and production capacity, fishermen who go fishing on their own still exist, and in terms of quantity, they are still the main force in Ireland's offshore fishing industry.
Because of tradition and capital, these fishermen still sail sailing boats to work at sea, relying on traditional craftsmanship, but they also take greater risks.
The white sails swayed gently on the sea. When the black smoke on the other side of the horizon filled the eyes, the old fisherman could see clearly the black golden eagle flag hanging high on the huge metal battleship.
"Woo!" The huge warship made a whistle sound, its straight bow cut through the waves of the sea, and passed by the small fishing boat.
On the side of a huge ship nearly four stories high, unshaven sailors waved their white sailor hats enthusiastically towards the fishing boats of their hometown.
"It's the Conqueror! It's the battleship Conqueror!" The old sailor sighed with relief as he looked at the cast iron name on the bow and sides of the huge battleship.
The first time he saw this behemoth, he was so frightened that he could not speak at all. He never thought that humans would one day be able to control such a huge war machine.
But he saw a miracle, saw such warships, one following the other, sailing into the distance, conquering the distant southern seas. The pirates who were rampant for a while, and the arrogant Imperial Navy were all wiped out in front of these steel warships.
.
Immediately behind the battleship Conquest was the battleship Hero, which was also moving forward at high speed with black smoke, and finally followed by the battleship Victory.
Around the three battleships, there were also cruisers with newer styles following them. Above the heads of these battleships, there were vaguely following two patrolling P-51 Mustang fighter jets.
…
In the bridge of the battleship, protected by thick armor, Genesis stood in his command position with an ugly face and his hands behind his back.
The Navy's Four King Kongs, the legendary four battleships with the largest tonnage and the most powerful firepower, have always been the heart and soul of Genesis and his treasure.
Regrettably, just ten days ago, the battleship Dreadnought, as the flagship of the Imperial Navy, the flagship of the squadron, and one of the four great kings of the Airanthil Navy, was sunk in the Endless Sea.
On the sea, this made Origin feel extremely painful.
When he heard the news that the Intrepid was sunk, Lawns led the fleet and began to head north.
Finally, after hurrying and slowing down, we arrived at Osa Port today, and we have stabilized the entire sea defense of Ireland.
With the fleet of Lawns guarding Osa, this is the largest ship building port in Ellandhill at this stage, and it can be temporarily safer.
The return of dozens of warships to the port is a big event in the Port of Osa. The person in charge of the port, as well as the navy generals, as well as the naval officials who rushed to Osa to supervise the ship construction work, all greeted him on the pier.
His immediate boss, Lawns.
The battleship Conquest slowly moored at the port pier, and the sailors were allowed to take leave and spend two days in the city of Ossa.
This is not because Lawns is indulging his men, but it is true that they have not set foot on land for more than two months.
In order for these sailors to maintain high combat effectiveness, proper rest and recuperation is completely necessary, and it is also something that Genesis, as the commander, has to do.
What's more, even now that he and his men can go to sea to fight immediately, he has no way to send his warships to sea to fight.
On the way back, he had to replenish fuel such as coal, water, and let technicians adjust the boiler to restore the warship to its best condition.
Of course, they had to replenish ammunition. He had burned, killed, and looted all the way south. The ammunition reserve in the battleship was exhausted, and only some armor-piercing shells were left. There was no way to continue fighting.
"Have your people replenish the ammunition, water and food on the battleship as soon as possible!" After instructing the person in charge who came to greet him, Lawns pointed to his battleship and said eagerly.
The cranes have already begun to operate, lifting the supplies and wealth that these warships have snatched from the southern seaport city, and unloading them onto the dock.
Those scattered gold and silver jewelry made everyone around them feel very excited. At the same time, those cold cannonballs were neatly stacked, waiting for their fate to be transported to the battleship.
"New cannonballs?" Lawns asked curiously when he saw the huge cannonballs he had never seen before piled on the dock.
"Yes, it's the latest anti-magic artillery shell! It's very easy to use." Looking at the colorful warning paint, the official responsible for counting the artillery shells nodded and replied.
At the same time, the Osa nuclear submarine, which has exhausted its torpedoes, is returning to Osa at a high speed of 55 kilometers per hour.
The special torpedo Mk48 it uses also needs to be replenished in Osa. After all, another naval production base, Ferry, is still busy clearing mud.
Farther away from the pier where the battleship Conquest is docked, in a huge dock, the prototype of the fifth battleship of Iland Hill, which has been under construction for a long time, can be easily seen.
"Devil? You wait for me! You dare to destroy my ferry city? I will make you regret coming to this world for the rest of your life!" Lawns clenched his fists, stood on the pier full of sea breeze, and muttered something.
