Su Cheng looked up at the clear sky above his head.
Widths of east wind blowing from the east passed through his skin.
"Captain..."
Mude, who was standing side by side on the deck of the Shiperian with Su Cheng, had an ugly face and then said in a deep voice:
"Today... the wind direction still has not changed..."
These days, the first thing Mu De does after getting up every day is to see if the wind direction has changed today.
And every result disappointed Mu De.
"Captain...what should we do?"
Mu De then asked Su Cheng.
"If the wind direction does not change to the west wind, we will have no way to launch a fire attack..."
Before the Eastern Expedition began, Su Cheng, Mude and Blaze had a discussion on the topic of "How to defeat the Farac Empire's fleet".
It was also during this discussion that Su Cheng, Mude and Blaze expressed his plan - Fire Attack.
Fill the No. 1 warship with tinder oil and other things that are necessary to launch fire attacks, and launch fire attacks on the Frank Empire fleet.
Although Su Cheng's strategy was theoretically perfect, his fire attack strategy was unanimously agreed by Mude and Blaze.
But after the battle of Anga Lake water battle started, Su Cheng and the others were unable to launch a fire attack for a long time.
The reason is nothing else - the wind direction is wrong.
Since entering Lake Anga, Su Cheng and his joint fleet have been located on the west side of the Royal Fleet of the Frank Empire.
But the wind direction has always been the east wind.
In other words, if a fire attack is launched at this time, Su Cheng and the others will move forward against the wind.
In this situation of moving forward against the wind, the flames had not even burned the enemy ship, and they had to burn their ships into a sea of ​​fire.
These days, Su Cheng and the others are also trying to change the direction of the fleet, put the fleet in the upper direction and put the Royal Fleet in the lower direction.
However—Otto, the commander-in-chief of the Royal Fleet, seemed to see through their intentions.
With the greater advantage of having more ships in the Royal Fleet than the United Fleet, Su Cheng and the others were constantly stuck in the position, making Su Cheng and the others unable to get out of the awkward position of being in the lower position.
Since you cannot get rid of the awkward position of being in the lower wind position, the only thing you can rely on is to pray for the change in the direction of the wind.
It’s a pity that no matter how Mude and the others prayed, the direction of the wind has not changed.
Using the word worry to describe Mu De’s current mood is a bit ineligible.
Compared to Mu De's worries, Su Cheng's reaction has always been relatively calm.
This is not the first time Mu De told Su Cheng that the direction of the tragedy has not changed.
Every time he complains to Su Cheng, Su Cheng will smile gently and say, "Wait a little longer, maybe in the afternoon, the wind direction will change, and it doesn't matter if the wind direction has not changed. I have the final plan."
As expected, after Mu De's complaints fell, Su Cheng smiled slightly and said what he had said to Mu De many times before.
What is the "final strategy"?
Mu De has always been puzzled about the "final strategy" proposed by Su Cheng, not knowing what this thing is.
When asked about Su Cheng, Su Cheng just smiled without giving any positive answers, saying, "I will tell you when it comes to the moment when I really need to launch this final plan."
...
...
"Hmm..." Su Cheng suddenly frowned slightly and looked at the Royal Fleet's formation opposite.
"Captain, what's wrong?"
Mu De asked this while following Su Cheng's gaze at the Royal Fleet's formation.
As soon as his eyes were cast on the Royal Fleet's formation, Mu De's pupils shrank slightly.
Because he saw that the Royal Fleet's ship array was carrying out unusual actions.
New warships as huge as hills sailed to the front of the ship formation, and each new warship was extremely close.
Although their formation has not been deployed yet, Mu De has vaguely seen what formation these new warships plan to integrate into - a wedge formation.
The wedge array composed of new warships as huge as a hill - how spectacular it would be, how amazing the power it burst out would be, Mu couldn't believe it.
"...Mr. Mude." Su Cheng suddenly spoke in a calm tone at this time, "Send the entire army to retreat. You must never face the enemy ships head-on."
"yes!"
...
...
With the issuance of Otto's attack order, the new warships that had been lined up in dense wedges immediately roared towards the formation of the joint fleet.
Otto named their Royal Fleet's final trump card, which is the ship formation: "Mountain Pressing Formation".
Because when a new warship lined in dense wedges strikes, its power and power are like rows of giant mountains after row.
...
...
Although Su Cheng had ordered a retreat in advance, many ships still had no time to withdraw.
Any ship hit by this "mountain pressure array" has no exception - it is hit and sunk to the bottom of the lake.
Whether it is the flexible and compact No. 3 warship or the largest No. 1 warship, they are unable to compete with this "mountain pressure array".
The new warship that launched the "Mountain Pressing Formation" rushed forward and was invincible. All the things that stood in his way were shattered.
In a blink of an eye, more than a dozen warships of the combined fleet were sunk.
Su Cheng, who had never had any turbulence on his face, finally had a bit of solemn expression on his face at this moment.
...
...
bump!!
A deafening loud bang rang out.
This is not the sound of the Royal Fleet's new warships colliding with the Combined Fleet's ships.
This is the sound of two new battleships colliding with each other.
A new type of warship was rushing forward suddenly deviated and hit the friendly ship next to it.
Otto, who had been standing on the bow of the Heles, also saw this scene.
"Oh..." Otto murmured, "It's reaching the limit..."
After saying that, Otto turned around and ordered to the general next to him:
"Transfer - Stop the offensive and reorganize the formation."
"yes."
...
...
The "Mountain Pressing Formation" is powerful, but it also has one flaw - it is extremely easy to accidentally hurt friendly forces.
Fighting a ship—especially, it is difficult to operate such a huge ship.
If you ride a horse on the flat ground and charge, if you do it accidentally, you may knock down your comrades next to you, let alone picking up the boat on the water.
Every new warship is so close that it is inevitable that it is inevitable that it accidentally hits the friend ship next to you while charging.
Once the ships collided, they had to stop the offensive immediately and reorganize the formation. Otherwise, the collision ships would affect the surrounding warships and lead to the formation becoming more and more chaotic.
When the new warships terminated the offensive and reorganized the formation, Su Cheng and the others finally got a chance to breathe.
