Chapter 370 The Great War on the Sea of Mist!
Amid Syrid's eager inquiry, Joshua, the presiding judge in a purple-gold robe, did not reply, but the cardinal at the side spoke in a timely manner.
"I speculate that their sensing range is about 1.5 kilometers... Since they have not changed direction yet, it proves that they should not be aware of our arrangement."
The reason why those wizards' fleets were able to chase and harass the empire's fleet on the sea of mist, apart from the advantages brought by the speed and attack range of the ships, the most important point is that those wizards seem to have Some ability to locate them through the fog.
Recently, although the fog on the sea has reduced a lot, the visibility is still only about 300 to 400 meters, and it still has the ability to shield perception. Unless they keep using magic to disperse the fog, otherwise they will not even be able to see the enemy ships. can't see the shadow.
"The time should be almost up, let's act!" Joshua nodded, and lifted the scepter in his hand, and an invisible wave of divine magic quickly passed across the sea...
…
At the same time, on the giant steel ship one kilometer away, Tick manipulated the turret on the deck, accurately hit a sailing ship, watched the hull overturned and sank to the bottom in the flames, and immediately spoke freely: .
"I hit it again, how refreshing!"
Aurora also had a little smile on her face, and I have to say that this battle was really comfortable.
Whether it is the number of ships or high-end combat power, they can be said to be at an absolute disadvantage.
The fleet of this empire has more than 300 ships, there are more than ten cardinals alone, and the number of enemy troops is probably more than 90,000!
The purpose of the Holy See's big battle is self-evident, and that is to destroy the entire land of wizards!
It just happened to be hit by them, which has to be said to be a kind of luck!
After all, the parliament is now devoting most of its strength to the Kingdom War. Once these people land in the harbor city, they will definitely cause unimaginable damage!
Even if the wizards who stayed behind were able to expel this crusade army in the end, they would have to pay a very heavy price...
It is more likely that the entire wizard land will fall!
So Aurora interrupted the plan to support the kingdom without hesitation, and sent three ships to pass the information back to the parliament, and the rest of the people tried their best to stop the imperial fleet.
When she made this decision, Aurora was even prepared to suffer heavy losses and buy time for the war preparations in the Wizarding Land, but Tik and the others' way of commanding the naval battle far exceeded her expectations.
Generally speaking, during naval battles, the magic crystal cannons are used to conduct several rounds of bombardment first, and finally enter the boarding battle, or rely on the advantage of the size of the ship to directly collide with it, crushing and sinking the enemy ship directly!
But in the naval warfare manual that Lynn provided them, there was a more novel way of thinking!
The speed of steel ships equipped with internal combustion engines is more than three times that of those sailing warships, and the attack distance has reached a full kilometer. Coupled with the barrier of fog, they can always stay outside the opponent's attack range and slowly eat away at the enemy. Consume the vitality of the enemy ship, and easily play with the enemy whose paper strength is far superior to theirs.
And once those powerful cardinals dare to leave the team to launch an attack, they will have to face the righteous siege of hundreds of cannons on the ship, dozens of magic crystal cannons, and a large number of wizards!
No matter how strong the opponent is, they cannot withstand such an attack!
"I didn't expect naval battles to be fought like this!" Aurora said with emotion.
"The number of these ships has been reduced by half. If the pursuit continues like this, the entire army will be wiped out in less than a day!" Tik said proudly.
He could see that the empire's fleet was supposed to be attacking under artillery fire and forcibly entering the Wizard's Land, but the problem was that they were still far away from their destination. With the poor speed of these sailing warships, it would take at least three more time of day.
It's just a fool's dream!
However, after hearing Tik's words, Aurora's face changed, and she glanced at the sailing fleet in the distance, whispering in her mouth. "It's not right!"
"What's wrong, Master Aurora?" Tick asked with a confused expression.
"It's the wrong number of ships!" Aurora accentuated her tone a bit, and then shouted loudly using the magic of amplification. "Everyone, turn to me immediately!"
She clearly remembered that the empire's expeditionary fleet had 300 sailing warships, and now there are only more than 100 ships left!
Although they have been chasing each other for several hours and fired thousands of shells, under the protection of the priests and bishops, they will never cause such serious damage to the entire fleet!
Not to mention, in this chasing battle, the priests of the Holy See did not hesitate to use divine magic at the beginning, which consumed a lot of energy. Later, in order to save energy, they didn't even bother to release the divine magic to dispel the fog, but now they used it again. There must be something wrong!
At the second when Aurora's consciousness was wrong, the imperial fleet that was "fleeing" suddenly changed its direction, and huge sailing warships turned around on the sea surface, causing waves of waves...
"Wind, wind!"
Accompanied by bursts of roars, the brilliance of divine magic shrouded every ship, and the speed suddenly increased, which was more than 50% faster in a short period of time!
This kind of speed is nothing in front of their new warships, but Aurora's face is extremely solemn, because she vaguely senses that there are also strong waves at a distance of 1.5 kilometers to their left and right sides. Divine fluctuations.
But there is no need for induction now, because the two fleets crossed the barrier of fog and entered their field of vision, forming a triangle to surround the fleet in the center.
Tik instantly understood that the reason why the opponent had not fought back or dispelled the fog was to let them relax their vigilance, and quietly separated some of the ships in the dark, and now they have formed an encirclement trend!
How dare they?
Tick's face showed horror, you know, this is the sea of mist!
Once the distance is too far, leaving the fleet, and lacking the guidance position of the main ship, these separated ships are likely to completely lose their way on the sea full of thick fog!
But no matter what, the empire's fleet had already rushed towards them. The distance of one kilometer was close or far. Aurora had no choice but to order the fleet to break through to the west side with the least number of enemy ships.
The roar of the artillery sounded again, this time the gunners were no longer stingy with ammunition, and the flying artillery fire almost never stopped, but the priests and bishops on the sailing warship were so aggrieved that they were about to explode, and now they finally had a counterattack Opportunity, each one of them has put in all their strength to resist the attack of artillery fire with divine magic...
