The 507th chapter decisive assault

"What a panic!" Lorist drew his sword while grabbing Genorio and pulling him behind his back.

"Suddenly..." Lorester fired more than ten feather arrows in a row, but a series of screams sounded on the deck below and on the adjacent whaling ship. The originally empty deck was full of nails of various lengths. Feather arrow. The uncovered artillery firing crew and catapult operators had no place to hide, and nearly one-third of the casualties in this lob attack...

He made a mistake, and Lorist’s heart sank. Because he was at sea, all family soldiers who boarded the ship removed the family-style armor and replaced it with a thin and buoyant water animal leather armor to avoid accidental falling into the water. Unfortunate accident. Moreover, Lorester believes that with the long-range attack power of the bronze artillery, the enemy will be wiped out two or three hundred meters away, and will not give the enemy the opportunity to fight close to the side. Therefore, this water animal leather armor is more equivalent to the role of a life jacket. How much defense is added to the wearer.

But I didn’t expect that the invincible fleet would have to drag people into the water when it died. It disregarded the fact that more than sixty or seventy large armed warships had been destroyed by chain bombs and flint bombs. Instead of evacuating, they used the warships burning in front of them as shields. , Using the opportunity of the fireworks to diffuse and obscure the field of vision, the boat against the fire continued to advance forward by following the wind and the current, successfully shortening the distance between the two parties to within 150 meters, and then launched the first time with a longbow. The counterattack caused a lot of casualties to the Norton family fleet.

Arrows are like rain...

Lorester never thought that the longbow would be so powerful in naval battles. No one on the deck could fire catapults and artillery. The soldiers were all hiding in the east looking for shelter. The whites were everywhere. The arrow feathers are densely packed, as if a large area of ​​small woods have grown on the deck.

This kind of longbow sling is also the invincible fleet that can only be played by a large number of people on the ship. At the beginning, Lorist also installed a large steel crossbow on the ship with a range of nearly 300 meters, but it was abolished because of its poor attack power. In naval battles, crossbow arrows are inferior to artillery, and they cannot blast a large hole at once. The crossbow arrows can still run as fast as a hedgehog in ordinary ships. However, the Invincible Fleet used numerous sailors to sling with long bows to cover a sea area, which brought great threats and casualties to the Norton family.

"The enemy ship is one hundred and twenty meters away! Uh..." The conscientious lookout hand had a few feather arrows stuck in his body and fell from the mast to the deck. After earning twice, he stopped moving.

Lorist jumped off the berth: "Joe, you protect Genorio."

Here strode forward to a catapult, grabbed the torsion arm and wanted to reset the catapult's long arm, Ovius rushed over: "Your Highness, let me come."

Lorist dialed the arrow rain again with his sword in one hand, and shouted: "Go to the cabin and get me some gunpowder bags, then let the artillery fire and destroy the fire ships in front!"

Orviz rushed into the cabin under the rain of arrows, and soon the bronze artillery under the deck broke out with thunderous sound again. Although it was difficult for the burning warships to be destroyed by the artillery at once, they were hit by several iron projectiles. On the upper part of the ship, more than half of the burning parts were shaken into the sea. As soon as the fire was small and the smoke was blown by the sea breeze, it exposed the large armed battleship of the Invincible Fleet with half sails behind, and the Sepp further behind. The giant ship of Nimes sea castle, from a distance, the bows of these warships are all archers with bows and arrows.

Lorist kicked the catapult's machine to the front gear, which was the mark of the nearest effective throwing distance of the catapult.

"Put the gunpowder bag on the throwing spoon, pull out a match rope next to it, cut it in half, light it, hurry up!" Lorist shouted at Orviz, who came out of the cabin with several gunpowder bags.

Without scissors, Oviz directly cut half of the match rope with the sword in his hand, and a rocket fell beside him and grabbed it directly to light the match rope. Lorist broke the firing rod, and the long arm of the sling shot into the air, and the gunpowder bag was thrown far away.

Soon the gunpowder bag turned into a small black spot. Just as it was about to fall into the group of shooters on the enemy battleship, the fire suddenly flashed, and a thunderbolt came from far away. I saw that the bow of the gunpowder bag fell. Almost all of the shooters were wiped out.

Lorist was overjoyed: "Quick, let's continue!"

Orviz stood in front of Lorist: "Your Highness, let us come, you command..."

At the same time, greeted the surviving operators on the deck to come soon, and soon the second gunpowder bag also flew into the sky. There were seven or eight groups of catapult operators who had no casualties. Lorist arranged one group to go to the cabin to carry the gunpowder packs, while the other six groups got together to launch the catapult. Lorist and Orviz held swords on the left and the right. Protect them from the rain of arrows.

After a mess of throwing and exploding, the front and middle of the line was saved from the arrow rain, but the formation of the Invincible Fleet's charge has changed from convex to concave. The distance between the two sides of the Norton family's horizontal formation is less than 100 meters. Up.

All the artillery is firing desperately, but the effect is not very good. Mainly, those fire ships with the invincible fleet in front became natural shields for subsequent warships. These burning large armed battleships are not those merchant ships with thin hulls. No matter how great the fire is, the hulls below have not been affected. In addition, the cabins of these large armed battleships are filled with bags full of flour. As a buffer, they did not fall apart or sank after being hit by these fierce artillery fires.

.....

Viscount Penelope felt very ashamed. As the commander-in-chief of the Invincible Fleet, he was not as courageous as a young man who was a decade younger than his son who had fought hard for decades at sea. The sixty or so large armed battleships in the current charge broke their sails and collided with the warships in the second row. They were struck by slings. Those burning rocks fell from the sky and made 70 or 80 battleships. At the time of the fireboat, Viscount Penelope was distraught. His first thought was to evacuate as soon as possible.

Although it was in the name of preserving the vitality of the invincible fleet, Viscount Penelope was really scared at the time. Moreover, none of the senior officers of the fleet together opposed the proposal to evacuate. Everyone was terrified by the unimaginable sharp long-range attack by the Norton family fleet. It was hard to figure out a way to make the Norton family fleet’s artillery lose its maximum effectiveness, but the enemy’s catapult was more powerful, and the range and power of the stone thrown were greater than the new equipment of the Invincible Fleet. No one could have imagined that the sixty-five large armed fleets lined up in the front line would be finished so quickly in such a short time...

Can't withdraw! A firm voice stopped the evacuation order that Viscount Penelope would issue. At the critical moment, Master Thurleyham stood up, and it took only a few words to make the senior officers of the fleet change their minds of retreat, and gritted their teeth to go up and fight the Norton family fleet to the end.

Master Thurleyham said that if you evacuate now, you can escape today but not tomorrow. The Norton family armed battleship has blocked the way to the Golden Bay. After everyone evacuated, they also sent the artillery fleet to harass. We are in a dilemma. Sooner or later we will collapse. It is better to fight the enemy vigorously in a desperate battle. , And he has found a chance to win.

What win? The high-level fleet commanders looked confused.

"It's very simple..." Thurleyham said. Before he went out of the battle, he refused to deploy a sea stormtrooper on the large armed battleship in the front line to avoid casualties and to test the power of the Norton family fleet's artillery. Although it blocked most of the damage from the shelling, it was unexpected that the Norton family had such a powerful catapult, which turned the battleships in the front into burning fire ships.

But these fire ships have also become the best cover for the subsequent fleet. Although we have lost the dozens of warships in the front, we still have more than a hundred large armed warships. We go up, use these fireboats as shields, and then lower the sails to avoid being spotted by the enemy prematurely, and slowly move closer. Today, the wind is smooth, the direction of the ocean current and the wind are the same, and the right time and place are on our side.

And now we are less than 200 meters away from the enemy, as long as we are closer to 50 meters, we can organize the manpower to use the longbow method to give the enemy a good look, if it is close to 100 meters, then the long-range attack on our battleship Weapons are also useful to suppress enemy artillery and catapult attacks. Even we can make those fire ships that are in front of us become our weapons, and can be used to burn down enemy warships...

Threatham's words strengthened the confidence of the top commanders of the Invincible Fleet in victory. When the archer of the organization launched a counterattack with a longbow lob and heard a faint scream from the front, all the high-level commanders of the fleet cheered. It's not easy. It finally caused casualties to the enemy. Even a small casualty is a great victory.

However, it didn't take long for everyone to be happy. The packages thrown from the Norton family fleet, braving the sparks, exploded on the bow and the sea, and the sailors gathered on the bow to shoot arrows were almost wiped out. Viscount Penelope was shocked: "What is that?"

Master Thurleyham replied with a grim face: "Don't worry about what it is, in short, it is the new trick of the Norton family. Now we have only one way. We have to rush over this one hundred meters as soon as possible and take advantage of our number of people. Rush to the opposing warship to capture the ship and win the final victory! Your lord, there is no time, order Zhang Manfan to charge, order the small fast impact ship behind us to prepare, and launch a charge in the last fifty meters, not only can Disperse the enemy’s firepower and provide cover for us!"

The loud horn sounded. This was the final assault and the signal of a desperate assault. The cheers of "Wan Sheng" broke out on almost all the intact warships, and all the sails that had been half-sailed were fastened. Ascended, the speed of the fireboat at the front also increased a lot. The brave sailors ignored the horrors of the bow and arrow shooters on the bow and operated various long-range attack weapons to the Norton family, which was less than 100 meters away. The fleet launched a fierce attack.

The enemy fleet's artillery was also firing desperately, and the sturdy hull felt violent vibrations from time to time, as well as the whistling sound of those sharp iron pellets passing by. But no one is afraid of this, even if the companion around him is unlucky and is hit by a cannonball and suddenly loses his head or has a big hole in his chest and abdomen. The sailors still fired various long-range attack weapons at the enemy indifferently.

...

A head-sized stone hit Lorist's side, bounced on the thick deck and flew in another direction. Lorist glanced at the stone indifferently, then turned his gaze to the invincible fleet ahead.

"Quick, hurry, get ready for chain bullets..." Schward kept urging. The ten land-based artillery that stayed on the deck was still firing only four. The artillery fired when it was attacked by a longbow. The group was seriously injured. Now the injured have been rescued from the cabin. It took a long time for Schward to make up four and a half-complete launch groups.

"My lord, the chain bullet is gone..." This is bad news.

Schward looked at the enemy ship that could not be seen at a distance of 100 meters, and sighed: "Prepare the shotgun, and then prepare the weapon for everyone. I think we may have to fight melee."

As soon as the voice fell, I heard a loud noise from the whaling ship next to it. Fire and black smoke flashed. It was a violent explosion in a window on the second floor that was being bombarded. By the way, it also blasted a big hole in the deck. The ground-type artillery above, together with the rack, was thrown high and landed into the sea...

"Asshole! Why are you so careless!" Schward was furious. It must be that the launch team made a mistake in busyness. It was either too much gunpowder or the gunpowder bag was placed too close and was drawn by the fire. There was such an important mistake at this gate. Morale fell.

The invincible fleet again heard the whimper of conch shells, and a burst of triumphant cheers came. Vaguely through the burning fire ships and smoke, one could see that behind the large armed battleships flashed out a ship with a thick bow. The small fast impact warships with sharp and shining cold spears, these small fast impact warships are like a long-footed centipede, with twelve oars protruding across the waves on each side, quickly passing the warship ahead. , Passing through the gap between the burning fire ship and the smoke, shooting towards the whaling ship like arrows...

"Strike the battleship! Lower the muzzle, release the shotgun, aim, release!"

All artillery launch teams are no strangers to the Invincible Fleet’s small fast-impact warships, because they have heard the artillery of the lightning fleet brag about how they deal with those small fast-impact warships. Shotguns are the best weapon. One shot can kill a boat with one shot. It’s just that they forgot the most important point, the lightning fleet never let small fast-strike warships close to a distance of fifty meters.

The sound of the guns sounded one after another, and more than a hundred small fast-impacting battleships approaching on the sea surfaced from time to time. Pieces of blood fog were lifted up from time to time. The final sprint was launched at a distance of less than 20 meters!

Soon one after another crashing warships slammed into the whaling ship, and the banging crash sounded constantly. When the whaling ship was violently shaking, one by one flying claws threw up from under the ship and hooked the ship’s side. . The sailor who struck the battleship quickly climbed up with a short sword in his mouth and grabbed the rope of the flying claws along the wall~www.wuxiaspot.com~ There was a cry of killing from the left. Lorist glanced at it, but Seeing an invincible fleet of Sepnim Sea Castle rammed one head against a whaling ship, the whaling ship was hit by a high end, and the bronze artillery and catapult on the deck rolled towards each other. Fell down. Countless heavily armed sailors appeared on the huge ship of Sepnim Sea Castle, who were climbing on the ropes to pounce on the whaling ship.

There are also six artillery firing groups on the whaling ship nearby. They are now turning their muzzles at the whaling ship and the Sepunim ship that have been hit under the command of the deputy commander of the artillery battalion, firing shotguns. Bloody fog burst out from the armed sailors in mid-air, and the scene was very bloody...

Lorist turned his gaze back indifferently: "Genorio!"

"Your Highness, I am here."

"Pass the order, let the medium armed fleet on the right attack. Go past the waterline position of the enemy ship at close range. Order the guards in the cabin to attack and counterattack the enemy ship with me!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"
