MTL - Heart of Empire-Chapter 489 Unbeatable dragon!

At first, Proudmoore was still sighing for the majestic appearance of the steel torrent of the Principality of Florence, but after a moment, he realized that the battle situation seemed to have changed dramatically.

He was in the sky and saw a few black spots.

The Ocean Fleet will certainly bring a portion of the air cavalry. It doesn't matter how much the cavalry's fighting ability is, after all, the confrontation between super warships, and the cavalry's fighting ability, can not be inserted at all.

Even on the land, the Griffon Cavalry, who performed very powerfully, could not overturn the smallest frigate in a team.

Of course, air cavalry can fight a dozen sailors on the deck. But the income is very low. Sailors usually have protective facilities on the ship, usually when they are used for defensive shelling. The use of anti-aircraft cavalry is even more useful.

When it comes to dive attacks, it is easy for people's navy soldiers to shoot down bows or muskets. As a result, the air cavalry launched a direct attack, which became a low-efficiency and worthless.

Combat is useless, but it does not mean that the Air Force is useless.

No matter how fast the puppet warships ran, they were also ships, and they had to follow the water and follow the wind. In any case, it was impossible to fill the flying cavalry fast.

Of course, the air cavalry's flight speed is not so long. However, this problem is actually not too big. With large battleships or battlecruisers as the base, the air knights usually stay on the ship and release it when necessary.

Usually, in the ocean of the Aurodiq, warships of more than six to seven thousand tons usually come with a part of the function of an aircraft carrier.

So, Proudmoore didn't find it strange that his opponent had an air force-it was not surprising that he didn't.

But the Air Force shouldn't be that big.

You must know that because of the combat effectiveness and fighting methods of the Air Force, their destructive power to the ships is not large enough. The method of carrying explosives to project is almost the only method that can be used, but due to the weight of the air cavalry, it cannot carry too much explosives, and the explosive power is insufficient, and it is impossible to hit the ship.

Moreover, the air cavalry did not fly high enough, and it was easy to be beaten at a height of tens of meters. No matter how high, manual throwing has no way to guarantee a hit.

Scout-type air cavalry, the best known in the world is the sea hawk. This kind of seabird is relatively light, fast enough, and has a relatively long flight range. Although its combat effectiveness is relatively poor, it is a very good flying reconnaissance arm.

Alas, there is a problem here. As far as Proudmoore's sight is concerned, even the fearless battleships such as the Iron and Steel Torrent and what can be called behemoths are far away with only a shadow, not as big as a thumb. It stands to reason that the size of the flying cavalry is not clear, it should be unclear, how can it be as big as a black spot?

This size, if calculated in proportion, it is estimated that a small warship is large?

A warship-sized thing flying in the sky?

What a joke! Can it be a dragon? !!

Such a ridiculous thought arose in the admiral's mind.

He quickly threw this idea out of his mind. Looking at it from afar, it is estimated that there are six or seven flying giants. The Schindlers tame six or seven dragons to help them fight? How to look at it is nonsense.

神奇 The dragon, a magical, powerful, and wise creature that helps the human kingdom fight, is only a matter of legend. Proudmoore didn't believe that such things would happen to him.

But then, the news from the ships ahead and the intelligence brought back by the seahawk soldiers who came forward shattered the luck of General Proudmoore.

His first reaction is true, those are dragons!

The turquoise dragon, whose body stretched more than thirty meters long with seven heads full of feet, flew in mid-air. They are flying higher than any flying cavalry, carrying a dragon knight at a height of three or four hundred meters, they can still hover up and down easily;

This is a height that neither the bow nor the alchemy artillery can hit.

At the same time, they do not need to project any alchemy shells. The turquoise blazing flames from their mouths were fiercer than any alchemy shells.

The dragon's breath fell, and a moment later, a battleship would ignite a blazing fire!

For just a short while, the news came that four warships had lost their combat effectiveness. At the same time, the geese of the United Fleet were completely broken by the dragons.

The Hindler's warships hung far away without engaging the ships of the United Fleet at all. Hindler's naval soldiers did not participate in the battle at all. They were more like a spectator than a soldier in this war.

He learned that all of Proudmoore was pale. He stared distantly into the distance without even being able to issue an order the first time.

A few generals of the Principality of Florence hurried over.

"Hello Commander, why not order yet? We need to support it immediately, or the Iron Torrent and our forward formation will be all over!"

The admirals of the Principality of Florence were all anxious.

Proudmoore returned to God, but he hesitated.

Think about it in an absolutely calm way. Is support helpful? The strength of the forward formation is not worse than the backup formation he is leading at the moment? But look at the results? The seven-headed dragon is raging upside down, but the warship formations at sea cannot help each other.

After the backup team went up, what can we do?

The current naval vessels are equipped with a certain amount of air defense capability, but such air defense capabilities are simply too weak for dragons flying in the sky. They are as weak as nothing.

The navy never encountered enemies like dragons in battles on the ocean. Although some remote islands in the deep sea have legends of dragons, they are just legends after all. On the one hand, it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, on the other hand, even if it is true, is there any other country's fleet that will run into a dragon like a neurosis?

How dare to mess with this legendary creature, there are only some brave sea adventurers. Generally speaking, if you dare to do this, the grave grass is three feet high-or it has long been the excrement of a fish on the sea floor.

This also led to modern warships, which are not sound at all against the enemy in the sky.

They can't handle the dragon, and there is no way to take this magical creature.

还 What else are you going to do? I feel that the forward fleet consisting of twenty warships is not enough. Even the backup fleet must be filled into this pit to die.

Proudmoore thought for a while and felt that he couldn't do such a thing.

The naval generals in Florença became even more anxious without the answer from Proudmoore. They kept urging, but in the end, they only got a word from the admiral:

"The whole fleet turned around immediately. We need to leave this area as soon as possible, head west, and return to the western side of the Southern Cross. The forward formation ordered them to spread out of the encirclement and disperse as much as possible to avoid the pursuit of the dragon."

A general from Florence heard this command and almost jumped up!

"General ?! Our main battleship is still ahead, we can't leave them alone!"

Proudmoore said coldly, "This time the battle plan for the blockade of the route has failed, and we have no way to recover this defeat! We must retain the warships for the coalition, the Principality and the Kingdom to the greatest extent! Only the warships are preserved , Return to the port city, we can think of ways to complete the conversion of warships, think of ways to strengthen air defense capabilities, and we can have a step forward ability to fight this war! "

"If we leave all the ships to the east in this battle, everything is over!"

The people of Florence were silent, including the admirals of the Kingdom of Pudri.

He recovered from the panic, and they had to admit that calmly thinking, General Proudmoore's words all made sense.

But who has the heart to look at half of the main force of the splendid and huge United Fleet, it was sent into the sea of ​​fire in front of it, and all were buried away?

Proudmoore doesn't care what these people think. Now that a decision has been made, we can't afford to delay.

After a moment, the order was transmitted. The twelve warships lined up by the backup formation pulled out twelve curved white lines on the surface of the sea, completed a U-turn, and went west. .

And when they left, the battlefield on the east was guessing where they were!

Uh ...

Beacon, fire everywhere, even on the blue sea, there is fire everywhere.

The Lieutenant General of the Principality of Florence, the Captain of the Steel Torrent, General Paparos, stood outside his captain's room. The size of the Steel Torrent is a very significant target on the ocean. In fact, his battleship was not taken care of by the flying dragons in the sky.

Almost every green dragon once sprayed its own dragon's breath on this battleship.

I also lost the torrent of steel enough to be destroyed.

On the huge Dreadnought class battleship, there is a billowing smoke everywhere. The soldiers were horrified. The elite Florentine Navy had fought against the Navy of the Holy Empire, the mysterious deep-sea monsters, and the cruel and devious pirates, but never against creatures such as dragon Pass by.

This kind of extraordinary creatures in people's impressions, which only exist in myths and only in the bedside stories of moms when they were little, bring great fear to people.

Lieutenant General Paparos personally saw that at least a dozen soldiers when a dragon first launched a dive downward after the dragon first flew down from the enemy's 10,000-ton battleship more than ten minutes ago. Frightened to death by Long Wei.

I was really scared to death. A person with a pale face, bloodless faces, and dark purple lips, with a look of fear, could not rise on the ground.

A few soldiers who responded, under the orders of the officers, trembled and launched a counterattack against the dragon that came down, but with little success. There were hardly any muskets and arrows that could be hit, and the three reverse-fired artillery guns were also all placed in the air.

Then, the green dragon that came down swooped down and washed the front deck of the Steel Torrent. At least sixty or seventy soldiers gathered on the front deck were buried directly in the sea of ​​fire. At the same time, the three artillery cannons that could attack the dragon above their heads were all destroyed by the dragon's breath.

的 The turret defense facilities that can resist the impact of the artillery are no different from the paper under the dragon's breath.

"Maneuver! Maneuver! Don't stop in one place! All warships move for me! Find those Hindrell ships, catch up, and tore them with artillery! Beware of dragons in the sky!"

Paparos' response was actually fast enough. Not long after the dragon launched an attack on the forward formation, he issued such an order to other warships in the formation.

But what can it do?

The formation of the goose-shaped array has completely dispersed, and the warships are fighting for themselves. Some want to continue to rush forward and catch the warships of the Hindlers who seem to be watching beside them; some, there seems to be Signs of leaving the formation and running on their own; what's more, they were panic-stricken, like a blind man scrambling around the sea, and had fallen into chaos.

At the beginning, Paparos was struggling to reverse the war ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ In addition to serving as a formation commander and giving orders to other captains, he also issued orders to require all the decks of the Steel Torrent. The upper-level open-air gun positions must find ways to increase the elevation angle, as much as possible to threaten the flying dragons in the sky.

At the same time, the ship's power system must also be strengthened. The power compartment at the lower part of the Steel Torrent has been operating at full capacity. This steel monster at sea has increased its horsepower and stared at a warship of the Hindler. Rushed up.

There are some effects, at least two alchemy cannons, which directly hit two different dragons.

However, this kind of artillery that was enough to directly bomb a giant elephant and blast it on the dragon also caused a certain amount of damage, the broken dragon scales flying with the blood of the dragon, and the bombed dragon also issued A painful scream.

But after all, it cannot be fatal with one blow.

After being traumatized and wounded, the enraged dragons, instead, set their sights on the Iron Torrent.

Xun Longxi fell one after another and fell on the deck, armor, and even the surrounding sea of ​​this super battleship, so that the Steel Torrent became a huge fireboat in a short time. Paparos stood on the boat, all eyes were blocked by flames and smoke, and he could see nothing.

As strong as a steel torrent, it is impossible to persist for too long under such a bombardment.
