Chapter 1197 Vanguard Battle

Most of the No. 4 warships in Mude and their fleet were built in an effort to successfully send troops from the Knights of Michael to the Blushui Port of the Holy Hillan Empire during the "Northern Swift" battle three years ago.

After the "Northern Slalom" operation, these temporary warships No. 4 were piled up in the navy's base.

No one expected that these transport ships that were temporarily built three years ago could come in such a great use.

Such a large number of transport ships were more than enough to carry all the generals and soldiers who were responsible for moving south.

If such a large number of transport ships had not been temporarily built three years ago, Su Cheng would not be able to use the power of the ship so smoothly to send all his troops to the south and the east.

...

...

A total of 20 warships as huge as hills sailed out from the army of the Royal Franks of the Frank Empire and headed straight towards the vanguard of the Britannian Army.

The vanguard of the Britannian Army is 35 battleships No. 2 specially used for the on-board war.

The person who commanded these 35 warships was the deputy commander of the Navy, Blaze Short.

Su Cheng handed over the important task of vanguarding the first battle with the enemy to Blaise.

The battleship Blaze was riding on rushed to the front of the ships.

He himself stood at the bow of the ship, leaned his knight's sword on the ground, and looked at the Frank vanguard troops who were getting closer and closer to them with expressionless face.

The reason why the warship he was riding rushed to the front and stood on the bow of the warship was to boost morale and let the vanguard troops who followed him to fight with the enemy clearly see him.

I saw him charging in the front.

But Blaze's good and dedicated move was not in vain.

The vanguard troops who followed Blaze were so brave when they saw that their commander was so brave, and their morale was greatly increased.

The ship's driving force used all his strength to drive the ship forward at a faster speed.

The soldiers responsible for using various equipment on the ship were ready to fight and couldn't wait to fight with the Franks.

The vanguard of Su Cheng's army had 35 ships.

The vanguard of Otto's army had only 20 ships.

In terms of quantity, the vanguard troops of the Su Cheng army had a huge advantage.

Of course—it's just that in terms of quantity.

If you come to the scene and see the difference in size between the warships between the two armies in person, you will instantly blurt out: the Otto army has an absolute advantage!

Because the ships of the Otto army's vanguard troops were their huge main warships as big as small hills.

Even the No. 1 warship, the largest among the four types of ships in the Britannian Empire Navy, is far smaller than the main battleship of the Royal Fleet.

The largest warship No. 1 is not as powerful as the main warship of the Royal Fleet, let alone the No. 2 warship No. 2, which is a circle smaller than the No. 1 warship.

From the perspective of Blaze and others, the Otto vanguard troops, which were approaching them step by step, were pressing towards them like a mountain.

When the distance between the two armies is still relatively far apart, the gap between them is not very obvious.

But after the distance between the two armies was closer, the gap was instantly widened.

Looking at the "mountain" one by one, the fighting spirit of the generals and soldiers of the Su Cheng army's vanguard troops, who were very strong just now, faded one after another.

Facing these "mountain" and pressing towards them, the fear and oppression in it are no different from the charge of heavy cavalry on land.

Even when Blaze saw the "mountain" pressing towards them, he couldn't help swallowing involuntarily because of nervousness and fear.

——Looking closer, it’s really very oppressive…

Blaze said in his heart.

——I have never heard of the Frank Empire researching new warships before, nor have I heard of the Frank Empire building such a large fleet.

——Does the research and development of new warships and the formation of fleets be carried out in secret?

——It should take a lot of time to study warships with such terrifying oppressive power and build such a large-scale fleet...

——In order to defeat our Britannian Empire, the Franks also spent a lot of effort.

Blaise is the deputy commander of the Navy. His common sense about ships and water wars is naturally much more professional than others.

Blaze is very clear about how time-consuming and labor-intensive it is to study new warships and build a fleet.

According to Blaise's estimate, the construction of the Royal Fleet of the Frank Empire should be at least 10 years.

——Okay, how much time did the Frank Empire take to successfully build this fleet? This kind of thing has nothing to do with me.

——I'd better focus on what I should do.

After shook his head hard and abandoning the messy thoughts in his mind, Blaze picked up the knight's sword that had been on the deck since the beginning, drew the sword out of the sheath with a "scarlet" and aimed the sword tip at the Otto army vanguard troops in front.

"Stone cannon, giant crossbow is ready!"

Stone cannons and giant crossbows - one of the standard equipment of the navy.

The so-called stone cannon is simply an improved trencher.

The principle of using the exquisite trencher is not much different from that of the trencher, and people call it a "stone cannon".

Giant crossbow - that is, the modified siege crossbow.

Stone cannons and giant crossbows are the only two long-range weapons of the navy - this is the case for all armies of various countries.

Blaze has actually been silently calculating the distance between the two armies.

After the vanguard of the Otto army had already entered their attack distance, Blaze immediately asked his soldiers to prepare for a long-range strike.

In less than a minute, Blaze received that all ships had completed the use of stone cannons and giant crossbows.

All the stone cannons and giant crossbows in Blaze's army were aimed at the battleships of the Frank vanguard troops in front.

Blaze raised the knight's sword in his hand high and swung it heavily.

"emission!"

With the issuance of Blaz's offensive order, huge rocks and huge arrows hit the Frank vanguard forces with amazing momentum and power.

boom!

laugh!

The rumbling sound of huge rocks hitting the wood and the crisp and muffled sound of huge arrows piercing through the wooden boards one after another.

Due to the correct head and the distance between the two armies, there were actually very few huge rocks and crossbow arrows that successfully hit the Frankish ships.

Of the 10 stones, only about 1 or 2 can hit the target.

However, because the Britannian army launched a large number of huge rocks and crossbow arrows in one breath, the base was large enough, so there were still quite a few huge rocks and crossbow arrows that successfully hit the target.
