Chapter 680 T tease

The horn sounded and the fleet set sail.

A group of warships lined up out of the dock and headed for the pirate ship. The warships are all using external turbines, and they continue to accelerate under the mixed kinetic energy of rickshaws. From the sky, it looks like an arrow piercing at the pirate ship. Compared with the neat array of warships, the array of pirate ships can only be described as loose. It's just that no one will be surprised. After all, pirates have never been disciplined, even if they all hang flags of the same pattern on their ships.

Soon, the warship fleet rushed into the pirate ship, and then the firepower was full. The powerful firepower of artillery, heavy artillery and Paladin mecha made the pirates breathless. When the soldiers on the wall saw this scene, everyone looked happy. In their eyes, the loose pirate fleet is not the opponent of the warship at all.

After a round of bombardment, two pirate ships were sunk. Under the cover of the fire, the pirates on the sunken ship were able to jump on the ship to escape. Soon, the pirates retreated. Looking at a row of malicious sail shadows on the sea level, Sine gave the order to return to the team, so the warships did not continue to pursue, and circled the sea and returned to the harbor.

At noon, another group of pirate ships set out, and a total of 20 pirate ships were discharged from a neat queue that surprised Facero soldiers. Sine didn't say anything and waved his army again. It's also the warships that fought in the morning, but this time it's slightly different from the morning. After the two fleets met in the sea not far from Fizero, the pirate ship collectively lowered their sails, and then the two sides of the ship opened, revealing a row of external turbines. It turned out that this time it was also a hybrid ship.

With manpower manipulating the outer turbine, with ten ships as a team, the pirate ships were divided into two teams and attacked around the warships lined up in a triangular array like a tiger shark. This bombardment lasted for a long time, and the pirate fleet showed amazing resilience and repeatedly used the external engine as a device to accelerate to avoid the fire point of the warship.

It's just that the equipment between the two is far apart. An hour later, five pirate ships were sunk. Like injured wild wolves, the pirates roared unwillingly, but still had to choose to retreat. While the defenders of the city wall cheered, the warship sailed back. In this service, the French and Serbo army left only one warship.

Just when the Knights thought that the pirates would not continue to attack for the time being, they didn't arrive at three o'clock in the afternoon, and the group of outlaws came again. This time, they no longer attacked head-on, but took a detour to the direction of the path of fate, intending to make a detour to attack the left city of Facero. How could Sine send troops to intercept them as they wished? But he had just sent a warship to intercept, and another team of pirate ships attacked from another direction. Sine wanted to send another fleet, but Jafidy stopped him.

The graceful army commander said that he was here to assist in defense, not as a guest. Why is there only the reason for the 4th Legion of Sine to start a war? So the commander pointed to the sea, and the warship belonging to the 11th Army on the dock sailed to fight against the pirates attacking from the front.

This battle has been entangled for a long time, and the pirates have changed their strategy. Instead of biting the fleet of the Knights, which was not much different from the iron block, he ran away with a few shots and watched the warship want to return and chase back. After many times, no one can do anything about it, but the ammunition of the Knights has been consumed a lot. The battle lasted until dusk, and finally the ammunition on both sides was almost finished before dispersing.

After the battle, Sine and Jafidi found that they had not sunk the pirate ship this time, not even one. There is nothing we can do about it. The pirates fought on the edge of the warship's fire range and refused to fight for their lives. During this period, both legion commanders gave orders to pursue with all their strength, thinking of fighting quickly. Unfortunately, the two were separated from each other in a large area. At first sight of the movement of the Knights, the pirates slipped faster than rabbits.

So a battle was fought, and the fleets on both sides basically did not lose.

The sun is at dusk, and the shadow of the sails in the telescope does not mean to disperse. Sine put down the telescope and thought about it.

In the evening, he talked with Yafidi for two hours, the next morning. On the port of Fácero, the ship belonging to Signe was launched. The 4th Army poured out and formed a huge fleet with hundreds of warships under its command, pointing straight at the pirate fleet like a long sword. The defenders on the city wall burst into waves of loud waves, celebrating the triumphant return of the commander in advance.

Sine is powerful and has the knight of the round table, which is a great killer. With hundreds of warships, there are more than 50 Paladin mecha alone. With such a huge combat power on the dangerous sea, the soldiers really can't figure out how the pirates will resist the strength of the whole legion. But Yafidi on the wall didn't think so. When Signe proposed such an adventurous action last night, Yafidi objected fully.

After all, in their intelligence, there are now a dozen high-level pirates. Although Fácero is a large number of defenders, he and Sinie are actually the only high-end combat power. The two are a little reluctant to defend Farrow alone. If the enemy's ability group attacks recklessly, it is unknown whether they can defend Farrow. And Signe dispatched a whole army to take the initiative to attack, which undoubtedly made Facero's defense unprecedentedly weak.

As long as the pirates divide half of the troops to entangled, and the other troops cooperate with more than three high-level attacks, Yafidi must be prepared for the battle.

But Signe insists on doing so for a simple reason. That's morale!

If Farrow can't stick to it, he can naturally delay the battle as much as possible. But if there is no action, morale will soon decline, which is not conducive to war. Both army commanders are well aware of what morale means in a war, especially in a protracted war. What's more, Sine had other plans. He took the initiative to attack, firstly to boost the morale of the whole city, and secondly, it was a tentative attack to touch the bottom of the pirates.

After all, it is now in the waters of Farrow, and this is not the Whisperer Strait or the Roaring Bay. There is a vast sea here, and this battlefield will optimize the maximum mobility of the fleet of the Knights. As long as it is not directly facing a large number of high-level conflicts between the enemy, Sine is sure to fight this battle.

The naval battle has another advantage for Signe, that is, there are few venues for the enemy's high-level strongmen to play, which avoids the danger of concentrating high-level combat power on the opponent.

And now, Signe does the same. Under his command, every five warships are a combat unit. Each battle unit is arranged in a triangular array, and a total of 20 battle units form a larger triangular array led by the regimental building. In this way, there is a formation, which makes the whole fleet both strict and flexible, and can be quickly separated when necessary to avoid the destruction of the opponent's high-level combat power.

Signe left with full confidence, but before he came into contact, the sail shadow on the sea level began to move. But the pirates are not fighting, but turning around and running away. Sine predicted many possibilities, but he didn't expect the possibility that the pirates would turn around and run away. However, after he was stunned, he ordered the pursuit.

So Sine's fleet set out during the day until sunset. How many warships went out and returned with the same number. It was a good thing to lose the end of a ship, but the soldiers on the wall soon found that these warships were too clean, as if they had been stained by the war. Then many people remembered that the sea seemed to be too calm today to hear a cannon?

Looking at the sea level, all the soldiers' hearts can't help sinking.

After returning to Fácero, Sine returned to the command room without saying a word. A moment later, Yafidi came in. He took a look at Sine and asked lightly, "What's going on?"

"It's very abnormal." Sine turned the unnamed ring on his tail finger and said, "Today, the pirates played hide-and-seek with me all day, and I chased them and ran away. As soon as I stopped, they posed aggressively again, but when we met them, these bastards turned around and ran away again. I chased them for hundreds of miles, but almost circled around the neighborhood.

"So they are going to delay us?" Yafidi sat down and knocked on the table with his slender and powerful fingers and said, "They are going to drag us to a general attack again when morale is low and materials are scarce?"

"There is indeed such a possibility." Sine shook his head and sighed, "If it were the former pirates, I wouldn't be afraid of them."

Yafidi was silent.

This is indeed a headache. In the past, pirates were rampant, but the Knights have never been afraid of them. In the final analysis, the insufficient number of pirates at the level of high-level combat effectiveness is a key issue. At that time, only the four captains could fight with the legion commanders, and the others could only escape. So there is trouble, but it is limited.

But this time it's different. I don't know when a group of high-level capable people suddenly popped up. Because of the existence of this group, the Whisperer Straits World War I Knights were defeated. Now the strong pirates have come out and have eaten the Knights to death in the area of high-level combat power. There were only 13 senior knights, and two of them were killed in the roaring bay, of which Mamiro was nowhere to be found.

So there were only ten seniors left in the Knights. Of these ten, Sauron must be in Rome. As for other legion commanders, they also have their own tasks. They are distributed near important cities or resource distribution points in the western continent, so they can't get out. It is very rare for Sauron to transfer Jafidy to support Signe. It is not so realistic for him to send another legion.

Of course, in addition to the apparent power, there are some unknown high levels in the Pontifical Council. For example, the three giants in the Inquisition and the retired high-ranking like the bloody knight Lambonis. It's just that the Inquisition will only come out when fighting against heresy, while there are only five veteran strongmen like Lambonis at present.

These people are not only old, but also unknown whether their combat strength can remain above normal levels. In addition, retired veterans are fully qualified to refuse recruitment in accordance with the laws of the Holy See, which is a recognition of their outstanding contributions to the Holy See. What's more, if these veterans are moved, I'm afraid Sauron will be unable to hang in face.

The problem has returned to the original point, and high-level combat power plays a decisive role in the war of the new era. In the past, the Knights shocked the pirates with this advantage, but now the situation has turned around, causing a headache for the two legion commanders of Signe.

What Signe doesn't know is that the hundreds of pirate ships hovering on the sea level are just making a show. Although the pirates who attacked Farrow hung the flag of the Neppoon, they were not members of the truly adapted Neppoon. They are pirates who have been brushed down from zero. Now their task is not to capture Fahanlo, but to try to stop Farrow and even the Pope's Hall with harassing and guerrilla strategies.

As for the main force of the Nephen Group, they quietly went to the broken bay. Their target is naturally Cannon, a fortress located near the Eternal Mountains and guarding the bloody road!

Zero has only one requirement for the pirates who spoof Ficero, that is, to delay them for three days. Three days later, all the pirates went to the outer island area and turned to zero, waiting for the re-convocation of the Nepacy.

And now, two days have passed!

The dawn of the third day came as usual. At dawn, Facero's defenders found that the pirates came from the other side of the sea level line like a cloud. On this day, Facero sounded the highest-level alarm. Jafidi and his army were still responsible for defense, while Sine put on the battle again and commanded his fleet to attack.

This time the pirates did not escape, and the array of Seine's warships finally cut into the pirate's fleet as they wished. Upon contact, the pirate's too long front was easily pierced by the Knights. When Sine made a decision to widen the gap, the pirate ship changed its front. The ships on both wings retracted and gradually closed into a round array to wrap the fleet of the Knights.

In the almost crazy artillery fire of the pirates, more than 20 pirate ships launched a suicide charge. This surprised Siene. Soon, he found that the personnel on the ship that launched the charge did not know when they had withdrawn. The rudder on the ship should be fixed with tools and slipped over by inertia. The commander immediately ordered the warships to intercept it. Unexpectedly, under the artillery attack, the assault ship immediately exploded.

The explosion formed a fire cloud, which surprised Sine, because the fire cloud was really huge. The fire cloud spanned 100 meters was not the product of gunfire. The only explanation was that there were strong explosives hidden on the assault ship!

The fire cloud rose, and then the fire wave rolled and sprinkled a rain of fire. At this time, the explosions had sounded one after another. After receiving orders from the army commander, the warships on both wings intercepted the assault ship with artillery fire, so the assault ships that looked like a mobile explosives depot kept detonated. Large fire clouds are bordered, and fire waves impact and superimpose each other, forming a violent shock wave.

Many warships were swept in by the fire cloud because they were too close. Fortunately, they were just wiped, and the unlucky ones were directly blown into two pieces. After the fire on the sea poured out, the pungent smell of gunpowder floated on the sea.

Syne's face was no worse. Although the pirates lost more than 20 ships, more than 10 warships on his side were also affected by the explosion. Moreover, the personnel on the warship had no time to withdraw. For a moment, there were soldiers' corpses and the wreckage of mecha floating on the sea, which were like a slap in Signe's face. What made him more unacceptable was that after this wave of attacks, the pirates turned away and were so fast that it was too late for Sine to chase him.

A day passed, and the dusk port ushered in the returning fleet of the Knights. The wolf smoke floating from the other side of the sea witnessed the fierce battle. Although Sine still caught up with him afterwards, like yesterday, the pirates decided to play guerrilla with him. After the two fleets chased hundreds of nautical miles of each other, Sine saw that it was dark and had to order to return to Fácero.

At dusk that day, the shadow of the sails on the sea level line was still the same, and the soldiers on the wall seemed to be holding a boulder in their hearts. But after dawn on the fourth day, the soldiers found that the sails on the horizon had disappeared.

"There must be something we have overlooked." In the command room, Signe walked back and forth: "These guys can't just come here to shoot a few shots, launch another suicide charge and then leave. What is their purpose of doing this?

"It's really confusing." Yafidi's delicate eyebrows have been twisted together: "It's not a formal attack. If this is a tentative attack, the cost will be too high."

"No, they came so ostentatiously, but basically did not carry out a tough attack. I always feel like I'm teasing us, or..." Sine's mind suddenly flashed, and his face became extremely difficult to look: "Are they attracting our attention, but the real purpose is not to attack Fácero?"

"This is impossible. In terms of resources and distance, only Farrow is worth attacking."

"That's not necessarily true." Sine walked to the plasma board, which was a map of the western continent. The legion commander's hand moved on the map, and finally his finger fell on a point.

Yafidi's pupils shrank and stood up and said, "No, their target is Cannon?"

Signe said in a low voice: "It takes about three days from Fácero to Cannon, and the pirate fleet has been pestered with us for three days, hasn't it? In the past few days, I have felt strange that the enemy's fleet basically has no capable people, and the rumored group of capable people has not appeared. Now we are sure that we have been fooled. This enemy entangled with us in Farrow is just a cover. Their real purpose is to cover the main force to go to Cannon.

"It's crazy, but there's no doubt about it. If you capture Cannon, it will be worth more than ten times that of Farrow!" Sine said urgently, "I will report to Lord Sauron immediately. You are responsible for informing Eg of Cannon and preparing them for battle."

Yafidi stood up and said concisely, "I know", so don't go down and contact the Cannon army. However, when they were busy, at this time, a shadow of the sail had quietly appeared in the sea of the broken bay.
