Chapter 215, naval battle (3)

As Reid's commander Eriksen waved his arm violently, the huge stone bomb wrapped in tincture oil, with the raging flames, tore the air, cut through the thick fog, and headed straight for the pirate ship.

But the next moment, Erikson saw the turbulent stone bomb falling on the sea surface, and the five Rhet naval battleships in fan-shaped advances in front of him were shocked. The huge hull seemed to be blocked by a big hand, and then the hull began to tilt slowly. The Rhet soldiers on the boat shouted: "It's hit the reef-"

The warships that followed these warships could not stop for a moment, and they hit the warships in front with a loud bang, which made the warships that had stranded the reef worse. Two of them even disintegrated on the spot. The Red soldiers above continued to fall into the sea and shouted for help.

But it was quickly swallowed up by the turbulent undercurrent under the sea.

"Bastard, how could there be a reef here!" Erikson said angrily.

What answered him was not the staff's intimidation and fear, but the huge rocks and crossbow arrows roaring from the pirate ship opposite.

The long-planned counterattack of the pirates of the Sea Snake Gang finally began.

~~~~~~~~

Big rocks flew everywhere and rockets shot everywhere. The originally calm sea area suddenly rose into the whirlpool of war storm.

"Master Commander. The Tomahawk was too damaged, and the soldiers asked to abandon the ship." The chief of the flag yelled at the lookout post on the mast.

"Tell these bastards that you are not allowed to abandon the ship, move forward for me, and even hit them." Erikson roared!

At this time, his tone brought out a bit of anger like a "crazy pirate in the ice sea".

"Yes!" The messenger immediately spread the news. The soldiers of the Rhet Kingdom had good military discipline. After receiving the order from the top, they rushed towards the pirate without hesitation.

Soon, the warships that were almost fragmented were getting closer to the warships of the Sea Snake Gang Pirates under the strong paddle of the soldiers in the cabin.

But the pirates of the Sea Snake Gang were not wooden stakes, so they naturally could not wait to be knocked down and quickly retreated to the rear.

"This won't work. Order Black Banner to lead the first formation to snipe the enemy, and the other warships turn the bow and retreat temporarily!" Although Erikson was arrogant, he was not a fool. At this moment, he felt that he might have fallen into the enemy's trap and immediately ordered the formation to retreat. He began to order the warship that was about to sink to crash into the enemy ship, which was also creating conditions for the strategic retreat of the army behind him.

Otherwise, if the enemy takes the opportunity to catch up, in this seemingly calm but murderous sea area, all of the ten thousand Navy soldiers may be buried in the belly of fish.

Fortunately, when he was chasing the sea snake to help the pirates enter this sea area, he had ordered the soldiers to sprinkle floating balls in the sea and marked the channel when they came. This would prevent the original safe return during retreat.

Now, this step is very prescient. Other parts of this sea area are likely to be full of reefs, and only this waterway that pursues pirates is safe.

"The enemy wants to retreat and order the periphery to release tincture oil immediately. As soon as the enemy fleet enters the exit range, burn the enemy army immediately!" Lei Dongfeng was observing the movements of the Reds in the rear. At this moment, he saw that the other party was about to retreat, and immediately ordered.

~~~~~~~

The huge warships of the Western Alliance's Kingdom of Reed's navy were constantly turning in the bay. During this period, more than a dozen warships collided with each other. The sound of wooden boards breaking, metal friction, and the sound of human body falling into the sea kept coming into Eriksen's eardrum.

"Sir, the enemy is catching up." The flag leader screamed on the mast.

"Bastard, how can those warships not sink them?" Erikson roared. In his thoughts, his hero cut off his arm and ordered those warships that were about to sink to hit the enemy ships chasing. Even if they could not sink the other party, they should at least temporarily delay the other party's pursuit?

"No, sir, it's iron armor..." the bannerman exclaimed.

But the next moment the sound was blocked in his throat. The back of a feather arrow was shaking in front of his chest.

At this moment, the banner leader no longer needed to tell Erikson anything, because a hundred meters away, a slender and sharp-cut iron warship was coming through.

The injured wooden warship of the Red Navy that blocked him was like a big hand ravaged, shattered and restored to pieces of logs.

"You surrender quickly, otherwise you will definitely be killed." A white-faced Han man held a bow and arrow in his hand and shouted loudly on the iron-armored warship.

"Sir, you guys retreat quickly!" Suddenly, several warships rushed out of the slant of the waterway, which were the first formation led by the Black Banner.

"The whole army retreated!" Erikson's eyes were full of anger, but he could only say helplessly.

He knew very well the power of this imperial armored warship. In the distant naval battle of Zhenhaifu, Erikson once had a glimpse of the armored warships of the Imperial Han Army fighting against the Sea Blues. The ten iron sword warships formed in a formation actually penetrated the defensive formation composed of more than fifty warships of the Sea Blues like sharp blades.

And now, such an experience is happening in front of him.

"How could a group of pirates have an imperial limited-production iron-armored warship?" Erikson roared, but unfortunately no one could answer his question.

Facing the warships that were so powerful that the Sea Snake Gang pirates on the opposite side, a sense of failure began to spread throughout the Red Navy.

However, the Red Navy was not a group of cowards. In any case, the Red Navy's spirit of fearless robbery still played a certain role. With the entanglement of several warships such as the Black Flag, the iron-armored warship of the Han soldiers was finally blocked, but then the pirate warships and boats surrounded them, and countless flying catches were captured. The shipboards were clamped with the Black Flag and the Red warships.

Although the Red soldiers on the warships were already desperate, they still rushed forward and began a fierce battle with the pirates who boarded the ship.

In Erikson's unwilling gaze, bursts of fighting and screams came from the warships. Erikson knew that the result of waiting for the Reds soldiers on those warships must be death.

"Han people, I must avenge this hatred!" Erikson smashed his fist hard on the side of the ship in front of him.

But soon, Erikson's swearing words turned into a more helpless roar. As the fleet was about to sail out of the thick fog, the bright blue sky ahead was clearly visible, but Erikson was surprised and a strange smell came from all around.

"What does it taste?" Erikson asked.

"It came from the sea, but the fog was too thick to see clearly." shouted the long-clad flag that had climbed up the mast.

"No, this taste is very familiar." Erikson's mind turned sharply.

"Sir, Han ships appeared at the entrance of the waterway." The flag leader shouted.

"What, what are these people doing?" Erikson raised his mileage mirror and saw that there were vague warships a few hundred meters away in front of him. The people on the ship were about to shoot rockets at him.

"How can I shoot at this far... No, they want to ignite, it's tinder oil, tinder oil!" Erikson finally woke up.

Although the imperialists have appeared and used tincture oil, with the construction of the Da 6 Highway and the caravans, they have already kept the practical methods of tincture oil to West 6, but the Westerners cannot master the key mining technology of tincture oil. In addition to being able to utilize some exposed tincture oil deposits on the surface, the large-scale demand for tincture oil must still be purchased to maintain daily needs.

The economic lifelines of many Western 6 countries were even controlled by imperial merchants.

As a noble class, Eriksen naturally knew the energy and power of this tincture oil, and his face turned pale.

At this moment, he no longer knew how to issue an order, because he knew that this turbid oil could not be extinguished by water. If these pirates had planned for a long time, then this sea area would be filled with a thick layer of turbid oil. As long as the rocket was shot out, they would not be able to escape death unless they could grow wings.

"We..." Erikson's last courage and pride finally collapsed in front of death.

But before he could say "Surrender" or "Surrender", the rockets had already broken through the air in the thick fog around him.

The general on the warship in the distance waved his hand and hundreds of rockets shot from all directions.

Rockets could not shoot the Rui Kingdom Navy fleet at such a distance, but they were enough to shoot the thick layer of black turtle oil on the sea surface.

The flames suddenly soared into the sky, and the Red warships that did not suffer any losses in front of the rockets were now hit by a catastrophic blow. One after another, the Red Kingdom warships were burned down and sank into the burning sea of ​​fire.

The Reed Navy on the ship was crying and robbing the earth at this moment, but he could not escape the fate of death. He either jumped into the sea or was burned to death.

The fire did not burn for a long time. In less than half an hour, the fire on the sea surface slowly disappeared, leaving only a few warships floating on the beach, rising with thick smoke. At this moment, most of the Red warships had turned into ashes in this ferocious flame.

Lei Dongfeng rode the iron-armored warship and felt a wave of heat coming hundreds of meters away. The charred corpses floating on the sea and the broken hull, as well as the smell of barbecue in the air, made people almost vomit.

Lei Dongfeng's expression also showed some unbearableness. Although it was an enemy, the tragic scene still made everyone sigh.

But after all, everyone was a warrior who had experienced iron-bloodedness. When they saw this scene, they could still control their emotions. They did not vomit on the deck like those pirates.

"Congratulations to the Legion, the victory and defeat of this battle have been decided." Li Ruoxi twitched slightly and moved his beautiful Qiong nose. A trace of sadness flashed between his eyebrows, and he spoke indifferently.

"This battle is all up to you, Dongfeng is grateful!" Lei Dongfeng bowed to the people around him and said seriously.

"Qinghou, the signal is given to the Huang Gang Leader, immediately rush to the Snake Island to attack the enemies who landed on the island. Completely annihilate them." Lei Dongfeng said to Chen Chong.
