Alpine town, on the coast.
The 700 fighters trained by Luo Lin have all assembled here, and in the sea behind them are more than 300 fishing boats of various kinds.
Most of these fishing boats were requisitioned from the townspeople. They were very cheap, and each was only a gold coin. Of course, there are no good ones if they are cheap. The largest of these fishing boats can seat five people, and the smallest can only accommodate two people.
However, because the ship is small, its speed is not bad. It is not slower than those ordinary merchant ships with sails and wood paddles. Of course, this is incomparable with the waterwheel warships of the Vendome Navy.
Luo Lin stood on the beach and made the final mobilization: "Brothers, there is only one purpose for this battle. We want to snatch the ship of 'Dark Reef', their gold coins, and their weapons! Why? Because we It's the lions, we need these things, and those puny rabbits have them, so grab them all and let them dive naked!"
Well, Luo Lin's words were very rough, but the soldiers present were all rough, and they didn't understand any major principles. They had been training with Luo Lin for the past few months, and they all admired Luo Lin's force. At this time, Luo Lin's prestige had already Stable, all the soldiers looked forward to him, and they were easily aroused at this time, raising their weapons and shouting: "Snatch all the pirates!"
"Okay, get on the boat!" Luo Lin waved his hand, walked to the beach, and stretched out his hand to drag the largest fishing boat off the beach.
Although this ship was the largest, it was not that big. It was only seven meters long and two meters wide. Counting the weight of weapons, equipment and food, it could fit five people.
Among the five people, apart from Luo Lin, Narosa naturally followed, as did Wild Wolf and Horn.
After several months of intensive training, Wild Wolf has also made great progress. He has a good physical foundation, especially his strength. In Luo Lin's eyes, he is now a level 18 fighter. Although he has not comprehended the power of anger, his physical strength has reached 120, which is considered a strong man.
As for Horn, although he has been in charge of the internal affairs of the territory for the past few months, he has gradually found a few talents, and the work on him has been distributed, and he naturally followed the training. This guy is really smart and talented. Although the training time is less than that of the wild wolf, his achievements are not low. He is even 2 levels higher than the wild wolf. He is already a level 20 fighter, and his physical quality faintly breaks through the elite level , It is worthy of being the figure who can become the commander of the coalition forces in later generations.
The other soldiers also pulled the fishing boat into the sea and rowed the boat. For a while, hundreds of fishing boats on the sea were advancing side by side, and there was some momentum for a while.
After traveling for a few miles, the weather was beautiful, and the wind direction on the sea changed, just facing the direction of Parrot Island.
"Set sail!" Seeing the situation, Luo Lin shouted and issued an order.
There is also a soldier in his boat named Yopni, who has been a fisherman for generations and has a strong fishing ability. He is well-known in Gaoshan Town. He is responsible for assisting Luo Lin in commanding the fleet and leading the navigation. He can be regarded as a military adviser. .
After sailing, the speed of the fleet increased greatly, and the wind rushed towards Parrot Island like a wind.
"My lord, at the current speed, we should be able to reach Parrot Island around 7:00 pm," Yopni said.
Originally, fishermen were most afraid of night sailing, because it was difficult to tell the direction, but Rowling had already asked Bernard to smuggle a batch of military compass from Vendome, and this young man, Yopni, also had a stargazing skill. Skill, so as long as there is no storm along the way, there is absolutely no need to worry about getting lost.
Luo Lin is assured of Yopni's ability. Although this young man is young, he has been with his father for seven years, and he is also smart. He is an absolute professional.
The boat sailed very fast, riding the wind and waves all the way, and by four o'clock in the afternoon, it had already traveled more than half of the distance.
At this moment, there is endless sea water in all directions, and it seems that it will never end. The boundless sea, the small wooden boat under his feet, although Luo Lin had a strong mind, he couldn't help but be intimidated by this natural force, and fell silent for a while.
"My lord, look at the birds in the sky, look at the green parrot. This bird is weak and cannot fly far. It can appear here, which means that we are very close to Parrot Island." Yopni pointed The birds in the sky said happily.
This is good news, Luo Lin felt relieved and said with a smile, "Very good."
Unexpectedly, Narosa suddenly pointed to one side of the sea and said, "No, master, I'm afraid it's very bad, look over there!"
Luo Lin looked over, but saw nothing: "There seems to be nothing?" He was not sure, because in terms of eyesight, Narosa had a racial talent that surpassed him by a lot.
But before he could finish his sentence, a message came out from his brain: "The Vendome naval ship was discovered."
At the same time as the news came, Luo Lin felt a small picture appeared in his vision, which was an enlarged version of the sea surface he saw. In this enlarged version, a black dot appeared on the horizon.
The picture was enlarged again, but it was the mast of the ship, with the azure flag flying on it. The flag was enlarged, and there were crossed swords and muskets on it, which was the coat of arms of Lord Primo.
Why did the Vendôme navy appear here? Rowling felt that something was wrong. He squinted his eyes, pretending to watch carefully, and then nodded: "I saw it too. There are three warships coming towards us."
Horn and Wild Wolf didn't see it, but Luo Lin and Na Luosha were both very powerful, so they naturally didn't have any doubts. Horn frowned and said, "According to what Bernard said, this is not within the inspection range of the Vendôme Navy. Why did they appear here? Could it be that they are also here to encircle and suppress pirates?"
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Luo Lin felt an ominous atmosphere, and he turned to Narosa and said, "Go and find out the situation."
"Yes, master." Narosa immediately jumped into the water, swung her snake's tail, and swam towards the direction of the warship at a fast speed. The Snake Demon is originally an amphibious race. In the water, Narosa is like a fish in water. She can even hold her breath in the sea for half an hour.
A white line on the sea quickly receded, and the others could only wait patiently for news from Narosa on the boat.
………………
Vendome Fleet.
There are three warships in the fleet. Each of these warships is more than ninety meters long and nearly thirty meters wide. The outer hull is covered with a layer of iron, especially the bow. The ship also has sails, but the wind is not the main driving force. At the stern, you can clearly see a row of propellers rotating at high speed, pushing the sea water back continuously. The perfect crystallization of craftsmanship and magic, even in stormy weather, this battleship can still move forward as usual.
This is the waterwheel ironclad ship that Vendôme is proud of.
At this time, the sailor of the observation post of the battleship sailing at the forefront seemed to have discovered something. He put down the monocular in his hand, raised the brightly colored flag in his hand, and waved it at the deck. This is the semaphore, and the meaning is exactly: "Find the target!"
The sailors on deck immediately rushed to the command cabin to report to the fleet commander.
Commander Hansen was a muscular middle-aged man, wearing a navy battle armor that shone with metallic silver light, and a spotless blue-bottomed battle robe with silver trim on the outside of the battle armor. When the sailor came to report, he was playing chess with his adjutant senior magician Du Rui.
Hearing the news, he smiled slightly, dropped a word in his hand, and murderous intent suddenly appeared on the chessboard: "It seems that the prey has appeared."
Although the magician Du Rui is very gifted in magic, his chess skills are not as good as Hansen's. He was concentrating on thinking and struggling to deal with it. Now that he has a military situation, he just took the opportunity to truce, pushed the chessboard, and said with a smile: "Haha, play!" Fight again."
Hansen laughed, and without breaking the adjutant's mind, he turned his head and stretched out his hand to the soldier beside him. The soldier understood and took the telescope over. The commander's telescope lens is made of precision crystal, and its function is stronger than that used by the watchman. Hansen walked out of the command cabin and looked at the sea ahead.
Soon, he found his target, and Hansen couldn't help laughing when he saw the densely packed simple fishing boats. He handed the binoculars to Du Rui, who was beside him, and shook his head with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that my mighty North Sea Ironclad Fleet would want to Shooting at this group of dilapidated wooden boats, if the news spreads, I am afraid they will be laughed at."
Du Rui also saw his opponent this time. After watching for a while, he also sighed: "Although there is no glory to speak of in this battle. However, this group of people organized a fleet without authorization. Although they are dilapidated fishing boats, they also offended Wangdo. Mu's law is a challenge to us."
"Well, yes." Hansen nodded. The sea area around Vendôme is their world. One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and the sea is the same.
He turned his head and ordered: "Sail in! Full speed forward! Prepare to fight!"
With an order, the sails used to save magic power on the three ironclad ships were immediately retracted, and at the same time, the water turbines were running at full speed, and the sea water behind the ships suddenly surged, and puffs of white water vapor came out of the chimneys. With the inert water element, the speed of the ironclad ship nearly doubled, and it rushed towards the fishing fleet like three sharp swords.
The soldiers on the ironclad ship also began to get busy, and various orders came and went.
"Heat the barrel! Heat the barrel!"
"Check the ammo!"
"Load the magic crystal, and stabilize the output of magic power!"
These are the voices in the cabin. Following these orders, the gun ports on both sides of the ironclad ship suddenly opened, revealing dark holes. These are dwarven cannons, with as many as thirty guns on each side.
The barrels of these artillery are slightly red, indicating that it has been heated and is in a state of full magic power. This is done to ensure the maximum power of the shells, and at the same time, the fire magic power in the barrels can also minimize the wear and tear on the walls of the barrels.
The deck was also busy.
"Musketeers, take your place!"
Soldiers rushed out one by one, evenly distributed behind the protective panels on both sides of the deck. Swords are not suitable for naval battles, so Lord Vendome spent a lot of money to buy muskets from the dwarves. These magical muskets have a range comparable to bows and arrows, and their power is even higher. They are even easier to use than bows and arrows, and can be formed with a little training. Combat power, the only disadvantage is that the price is really expensive. One shot costs a hundred gold coins. With Lord Vendome's financial resources, it can only be used in the navy, but the army is not enough. Moreover, in land battles, cold weapons are rampant, and the strong are everywhere. The power of this musket is greatly weakened. It's not worth it.
The whole prep process only took five minutes. Five minutes ago, the ironclad ship was a gentle lion, but now, the lion has shown its ferocious fangs.
The lion fought the rabbit with all its strength. Although the opponent was unbelievably weak, the fleet did not take it lightly. It used the strongest force as soon as it came up, and was ready to tear the opponent to pieces in an instant.
Commander Hansen looked at the sea level ahead, where it was still very calm. They were still some distance away from their opponents. Without binoculars, the fishing boats could not be seen with the naked eye. However, Hansen had already envisioned the scene of the fishing boat being torn into pieces.
"Hey, this will be a massacre!" With a sneer on his face, he returned to the command room. The strength of the two sides in the battle was too disparate, so there was no need for command at all. He just had to wait quietly for the victory.
At this time, no one noticed that beside the iron-clad ship, there was a thin white line that was rapidly extending towards the fishing boat. Soon, the white line disappeared into the distant sea water. (It’s a great event to drop pie in the sky, cool mobile phones are waiting for you!
