Realm of Power

"Shoot, shoot!"

The Falcon Navy gunner let out a high-pitched shout, ignoring the acrid smoke, and stuffed the shells into the Thor's hot barrel. The fierce gunfire came like raindrops, and the sea surface boiled and raised countless water columns, and Opposite them, a ship The Gangfei naval battleship endured the rain of artillery fire, and puffs of thick black smoke rose up from being hit. The remains of the battleship, which were broken like rotten wood in the explosion, dragged out huge waves in the sea water, but it was heavy. The bow of the ship charged forward without fear,

"Papa." The warships on both sides collided heavily. The sailors on both sides were knocked around. The seawater surged onto the deck. Countless white lines crossed the sea surface, flying over with a harsh whistling sound like hailstones. The heavy battle force The bow of the ship was crushed, It turned into scattered fragments, and the Dragon Tooth Ship that was too close was also affected. In the fog battle in the dark night, the hands were intertwined, and it was impossible to distinguish clearly. Next to an enemy ship that was shot and shaking, there were many It might be one of our own warships,

This is a fight to the death with the goal of completely destroying the opponent!

Black artillery fire was fired at a very short distance, and countless water columns surged up from the water, showing a scene like the sky collapsing and the sea boiling near the Gangfei battleship. The "rumbling" explosion overturned the deck of the battleship. The sailors and debris flew down one after another,

In the chaotic exchange of fire, the three large battleships at the front of the Gangfei fleet soon began to burst into flames, and then were sunk in the intensive artillery fire. The other battleships in the center were more or less damaged.

As for the Falcon Tigre fleet, they were also in a short contact battle. They paid a heavy price with one Dragon Ya battleship sunk and three Dragon Ya battleships damaged!

The Gangfei fleet was charging forward completely against the Falcon Navy's Thor Cannon. The deafening attack stirred up the death light that danced on the sea. Even Tigre began to admire the tenacious nerves of the commander of the opposing fleet. This was simply suicide. Type of impact, according to such consumption. Even if the other party can bite him to death, the price he pays will be quite tragic! Even the destruction of the entire fleet!

"Why? Tigel can't figure it out. The other party has followed him for twenty nautical miles. Is it just to rush up and smash him, and then die heroically?

"The news came from the fixed frame that the ammunition was exhausted and requested to evacuate the battlefield!"

"A request for instructions came from the Wuluhua. The captain was injured, the ammunition was exhausted, and he could not escape during the fierce battle. He requested to ram the enemy warship. May the glory of the empire last forever!" Suddenly, the flagman on the mast shouted to the bottom.

"Sir, the ammunition can no longer support three shellings!"

The news from the gun warehouse also made Tigre's face turn pale. Asshole, his manager knew why the other party was so crazy. Ammunition was the real crisis for our fleet. The fleet had dumped most of its ammunition in Kyoto. Ammunition simply cannot maintain the advantage of a long battle. The other side is desperate to drag itself into this asymmetrical quagmire of chaos. It is obvious that it intends to consume all the ammunition of its own fleet and then violently counterattack. Like the flagship, the same news soon came from other Dragon Tooth battleships!

Do you want to become the first Falcon Navy fleet to be annihilated by the enemy? Tigre's face was as gloomy as water, the artillery fire on the sea began to become sparse, and the powerful Thor volley could hardly be heard. Everything showed that the Falcon Navy across the sea was declining.

"Commander. What should we do?" The naval staff officers looked at each other,

Tigre's eyes were not far away. A Dragon Tooth battleship violently rammed into the Gangfei battleship on the side. In the turbulent waves, the high-speed ships of both sides were piled together heavily. The broken wood was broken, and the Dragon Tooth was The side of the battleship was cracked. As sea water poured in, the sailors above jumped off the side of the ship one after another. The Gangfei battleship seemed to have suffered heavy damage, but it still swayed forward. The specially reinforced Gangfei battleship is obviously not afraid of the impact of the smaller Dragon Tooth battleship!

On the flagship of the Gangfei fleet, a middle-aged naval commander with a cold expression finally showed a change in his cold face as he faced the cold waves. The admiral of the First Squadron, this ferocious fleet that fought with Tigre's fleet in the middle of the night, is the First Squadron that is known as the soul of the Gangfei Navy.

The battleships are all heavy-duty battleships that have been modified and reinforced. The sailors are all veterans with more than 2 years of sailing experience. They are well-equipped and have a tenacious fighting will. They are all ranked first in the Gangfei Navy. As the first squadron of the empire, their main responsibilities are It’s the guard Gang Fei Kyoto,

Enduring huge sacrifices, the First Squadron pulled the fleet into a close-quarters situation with the opponent at the cost of sacrificing one-third.

Antwit has been waiting for this moment. Everyone knows that the biggest feature of the powerful Falcon Navy is that it completely abandons traditional combat methods and instead uses the powerful Thor. This is the frightening thing about the Falcon Navy. , is also the weakest weakness. Once Thor runs out of ammunition, he will be a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

In the close encounter just now, there were only eight remaining warships of the Gangfei Navy. They were like a herd of wild horses rushing into a pack of wolves. The V-shaped Tigre fleet was forcibly squeezed away by the opponent's heavy warships. There was no ammunition. Dragon The captains of the Ya battleship could only choose to scatter and evade, becoming a mess.

"Go forward and crush them!" Antwit shouted excitedly from the bow of the ship.

The thin linear array of the Falcon Navy has been completely shredded by his deliberate impact.

The Gangfei battleship, which is far one-third larger than the Dragon Tooth Battleship, burst into brilliant fire amid the dense barrage. It is still as unstoppable as a sharp sword. The water waves caused by the huge hull are an ambush. The queue of Dragon Tooth battleships swayed from side to side.

After several battles with the Falcon Navy, we have learned deeply about the power of the Falcon Navy's side fire. All heavy-duty warships are reinforced with special steel baffles, which are like flowers on the sides. The explosion of fire only made these heavy ships shake a little.

"How many shells are left in the main gun of the flax dish?" Tigre walked towards the main gun at the bow of the ship with a solemn expression. He decided to make a desperate move.

"The general reserve is 12 rounds. The previous attack on the city destroyed 8 rounds, and now there are only 4!" The naval staff officer followed behind and replied with a puzzled expression.

"Get the bombardment captain, I'm going to use this dragon-class main gun to sink the opponent's flagship! If there is still one gun with enough ammunition, it is the main gun." Tigel made up his mind and clapped his hands with a cold face. The metal base of the flax disc main gun. shouted to the naval staff officer behind him

"Commander, you want to use the dragon-class main gun to attack at such a close range?"

The naval staff member trembled when he heard that his body trembled, and his face turned slightly pale. Because the dragon-class battleship's linen disc main gun is so powerful, it is only used when bombarding fixed targets. In a chaotic situation like this, you have to be a little careless, or Calculation error. The huge main gun may be able to kill our own people nearby with one shot!

“It’s risky, but worth a try!”

Tigre raised his hand, pointed at the enemy flagship that was running rampant in his own fleet, and said sternly, "Kill it, give the enemy a heavy blow mentally, and the enemy will retreat. Otherwise, we will die!" Geer's hair and clothes were soaked by the cold sea water stirred up during the fierce battle. His upright body stood in front of the huge linen dish main gun, exuding a strong and unquestionable aura.

The naval staff officers quickly ran to the gun warehouse,

Soon, the bearded artillery captain arrived together with several of the best artillerymen, his face full of yellow and white color from the saltpeter. Because we were fighting against the wind, a large amount of smoke and dust was blown backwards with every shelling. In addition, seawater was used to cool the heated barrel, and the inside was like a steaming hell.

"Antoulie, you come and conduct the artillery in person, and I will be responsible for the range measurement, just like we used to sink the enemy's flagship! Kill the enemy's flagship!" Tigel nodded to the familiar artillery captain, and skillfully took the Turn on the rangefinder.

"No problem!" The experienced bombardment captain's face was yellow and white, with a grin at the corner of his mouth, uglier than a ghost.

A loader next to him used his calloused hands to steadily activate the hook wheel shaft, and carefully stuffed the 50-pound shell of the linen dish main gun into the barrel.

The other gunners, at their respective posts, used all their strength to turn the steering wheel of the flax disc main gun. The huge black muzzle, as if filled with magic power, turned towards the largest Gangfei battleship 100 meters away. Reflected by the burning fire of the wreckage of the battleship next to it, the top of the Gangfei battleship fluttered the Crusader flag representing the flagship, as red as blood!

"Boom!"

A huge shooting sound shook the entire sea. On the sea that had almost calmed down, it was like thunder from the sky.

The captains of the Dragon Tooth Battleship, who were preparing for the final battle, suddenly saw a white light that intensified in the blink of an eye. It dragged a startling tail and hit the largest Gangfei battleship heavily.

The sky and the earth changed color, the entire white streak penetrated the side, the hull shattered, and red flames burned from inside the cabin. Continuous and huge explosions came from the huge hull, and the fire was like a huge red fire snake. The rolling sea surface turned red on the pale cheeks of the sailors on both sides!

"Long live the enemy's flagship!" The Falcon Navy, which was already in a semi-desperate state, let out deafening cheers. The captains on the Gangfei side were completely confused. What a terrifying firepower it was. It felt like a huge flagship. It was shattered by a cannon.

"Next!" Tigre said calmly

The slowly rotating muzzle of the main gun of the flax dish was aimed at another Gangfei battleship under the horrified eyes of the Gangfei people. The Gangfei battleship was turning in a panic.

"Rumble" the roar of the dragon of the sea!

How does the white light appear?

The emitted flash of light instantly turned everyone's faces white, irritating the eyes of the non-German sailors.

I saw the hull of the Gangfei battleship next to it paused for a moment. Suddenly, a rapid burst of fire erupted from the punctured hole in the hull, followed by a huge explosion. Everyone seemed to have seen the concentrated ship. The incredible faces of the sailors on the Gangfei battleship,

Why! Isn't it the other ship you're targeting? It feels like watching a funny stage play!

This time it was not Tigre's flagship that fired the gun, but another Dragon-class battleship. Obviously, the gunner of this Dragon-class battleship "missed" the target.

The only six remaining Gangfei battleships panicked. With the special care of the Dragon-class main gun, the "mistaken" heavy battleship quickly caught fire, billowing black smoke, as if it was torn apart on the sea. A tragic black scar, with firelight dense around it, like spores that suddenly bloomed in the sea and exploded in all directions, water columns rising into the sky, and white waves rising into the sky from the explosion.

The roar of the main gun of the Flax Disk shattered the side deck of a Gangfei warship again. Fortunately, this Gangfei warship was only opened a hole and was still swaying and turning. The second white light completely shattered the hope of this warship. The violent explosion made the people on it bounce up like scattered black spots, and they jumped into the water in groups, like a ferocious big yellow croaker caught in a cross-grid net, struggling to death, and finally the wreckage of the warship that broke in the explosion like rotten wood, dragged out a huge wave in the sea and disappeared.

"Assholes, it must be a trap!"

"These despicable guys. Murdered Lord Antwit!"

The nerves of the captains of the Gangfei Navy who had experienced countless sacrifices finally collapsed, and they screamed as if they were cuckolded. They were excellent officers of the Gangfei Navy, but they could not digest such a tragic scene for a while

Quick, turn! Evacuate this damn place! "From the moment the first battleship turned around, the other battleships also retreated in panic. Half an hour later, the glorious Gangfei First Squadron, only the burning flagship finally sank in the darkness.

Every surviving battleship of the Tigre fleet was also scarred. This was a tragic victory. The two most damaged Dragon Tooth battleships collapsed on the way back because of damaged masts and could not bear the heavy load. The deck was shattered and it was completely impossible to continue sailing. Tigre reluctantly ordered the ship to be abandoned.

The captains and sailors of the two Dragon Tooth battleships stood in a row, standing on the decks of other battleships with tears in their eyes, looking at the battleships riddled with holes, and under the roar of a flax disc main gun. Like a brave warrior who died, quietly loaded with glory, the bodies of Thor and his dead companions sank into the sea.

The exhausted Tigre ship The team returned to the Imperial Navy in the morning, covered in wounds, and occupied an island stronghold in the waters of Kyoto, Gangfei.

In this battle, 6 Dragon Tooth warships were damaged, and the remaining 2 Dragon-class warships and 8 Dragon Tooth warships were all damaged. The ammunition and food were exhausted, and 1,243 sailors were killed or injured. This was the most tragic loss since the Imperial Navy entered Obaro. On the Gangfei side, in this storm-like attack. 13,247 nobles and civilians in Kyoto, Gangfei were killed or injured, and more than 30 main battleships of Gangfei were sunk in the port. In particular, the destruction of the most powerful First Squadron made the last maritime defense force of Kyoto, Gangfei, disappear.

That night, after being rejected by the Minister of Military Affairs, Duke Rubinsak, the Admiral of the Gangfei Navy, Leco, committed suicide in his office by swallowing a sword. He was 37 years old.

This was a full A night full of blood and killing

When the storm dissipated,

Gongfei Kyoto was already nakedly exposed to the fierce guns of the Falcon Navy.

The storm was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, drifting from the edge of the earth. The dark clouds rolled over, bringing with them a waterfall of rain that turned the hard wilderness ground into a muddy land that was difficult to walk on.

"Boom boom" thunder roared, and chaotic silver lightning kept breaking through the sky above, illuminating the suburbs of Lisbonto, the capital of Putuo. The Gangfei army was divided into ten square formations, each with 3,000 people, and finally formed a hierarchical attack line, mainly infantry wearing steel armor.

Behind these infantry formations, a middle-aged man wearing a general's plate armor rode on a warhorse, not afraid of the cold raindrops hitting his body, and was looking at the rumored Lisbonto city that would never fall with an unruly look. Wall, he is Gude, the commander of the Eighth Legion of the Congolese Army.

The Eighth Legion is a famous "city-breaking army" in the Congolese Empire. The whole legion has 32,000 soldiers, of which 28,000 are well-equipped heavy infantry.

These soldiers of the Eighth Legion have half-meter-long white tassels fluttering on their helmets. The thick armor is washed brightly in the rain. The upper body is a whole piece of forged plate armor, and the lower body is iron armor with joint protection. The left hand is a tower shield for protection. The sharp tip of the gun is facing upward. From a distance, it looks like a dense forest flashing with cold metal light. Behind him is the Crusaders' flag fluttering in the wind and rain, making a cracking sound. The cold raindrops hit the soldiers' faces and flowed down the cold armor to the ground.

"Lord Remshat, is it this dilapidated city that blocked the imperial army for a month?" Gude retracted his gaze, with a bit of disbelief in his tone, and looked at Remshat next to him.

"Lord Gude, don't be confused by its appearance! This city is not as simple as it seems! "Remshat lowered his head in embarrassment, and said solemnly, "If I am not mistaken, the defenders inside should be the elite crossbowmen of the Falcon Empire! We have been defeated before we even touched the edge of the charge several times! "

"Oh? Elite crossbowmen? "Goode raised his eyebrows exaggeratedly. He had heard of this type of soldiers. It is said that a crossbowman can easily shoot and kill a well-equipped knight.

Remshat continued to say, "Although His Majesty personally led the army north, His Majesty's real eyes have always been on Putao. Both we and the Falcon Empire are determined to win this, and all strategic deployments are for Putao! In other words, for this small principality with a range of only two hundred miles, two empires and hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting bloody battles. . . . . . . "

"In this case, what are we still delaying here? "

Good interrupted Remshat with a curious look on his face, which made Remshat want to beat him up. He asked knowingly, if he could take Lisbon, would he need to stay here and endure the wind and rain? But looking at Good's strong body like a mountain bear, Remshat gave up. Let's not bother with this rough guy!

"My lords, urgent news from Kyoto!" A messenger cavalry galloped over

At the same time, on the sea surface of Lisbon, in the misty rain, a white line appeared at the junction of the sky and the sea. With the sound of rushing water, a row of densely packed masts appeared in the northeast of Lisbon, and countless large transport ships presented a white line and pushed forward (To be continued.
