The first thousand three hundred and sixty-six chapters won the battle (seeking a monthly ticket)
The large naval fleet of the Elf Kingdom was divided into two, blocking the Semitic navy from the south and west respectively.
The Ruman Empire's fleet of battleships and fast gunboats turned back at high speed, blocking the eastern sea route of the Semitic navy.
Seeing that they had been completely surrounded, the Semitic fleet immediately fell into chaos.
Seeing that the situation was over, Admiral Orgen, who commanded the fleet, made an immediate decision and ordered the entire fleet to turn around and break out westward with all its strength.
Although this order is clear and unequivocal, at this moment, it is an almost impossible task for the Semitic navy.
In the previous naval battle, the Semitic navy relied on its large number of ships to pursue the Ruman fleet all the way.
In order to seize the battle glory, they almost swarmed up, regardless of the formation. Therefore, the entire fleet was extremely long, and the distance between ships was small.
At this time, the southern sea area was blocked by the elf navy that suddenly appeared, and it was not easy to turn around.
If it were in the past, they could still hope that the war fortress would provide cover from the sky and open a bloody path for them. But now in the sky, the war fortress of Maple Leaf Danlin has also rushed to join the battle.
The war fortress of the undead tribe has been tightly held back and is completely trapped in a bitter battle with the Maple Leaf Danlin people.
The scale of this air battle was unprecedented on the entire planet since the beginning of recorded history.
In order to win the victory, both sides devoted almost all their strength to fighting fiercely under the dark clouds and in the swirling wind and snow.
If it were in the past, it would have been nothing more than war fortresses fighting each other.
During this period of time, the undead also accumulated rich experience in the air battle with the Maple Army. Moreover, relying on their numerical advantage, they did not fall behind.
However, what is different now is the emergence of Eagle fighter jets.
This is a new type of weapon, specially designed to hunt down war fortresses and seize air superiority~!
Its appearance is not just as simple as a weapon, but more importantly, it represents a new military concept.
If you want to win, you must win the sky.
This advanced concept was far beyond this era. So much so that when the war fortress was fiercely fighting in the sky, few people still realized its arrival.
Those stubborn and clumsy military strategists had just been baptized by machine guns at this time, and had just got rid of the tactics of group formations, so that the poor soldiers under their command no longer lined up and walked in goose to feed the machine guns.
.
Even though the generals around Lord Luo have been influenced by him, they are crazy about the "big guns and big ships" doctrine at this time.
Sir Luo's advanced military concept was far beyond both of their eras.
At this time, this advanced military concept finally proved its correctness in actual combat.
Those Eagle fighter jets are like fast-moving, ruthless assassins.
The tiny figure flew at high speed in the battlefield, shuttled back and forth, and suddenly rushed out from time to time, dealing a fatal blow to the undead tribe.
The 40mm cannon on the Eagle's nose exhibits excellent pointing capabilities, and its relatively straight trajectory allows pilots to avoid the issue of ballistic descent when attacking.
At a distance of about a mile, it can be said that it means hitting where. Usually, several Eagles cooperate together.
One plane feinted to cover, while two planes sneaked in at low altitude, suddenly pulled up under the enemy's war fortress, and used artillery to blast the base of the undead war fortress.
Just one or two cannons can blow open the base and destroy the magic array at the bottom of the war fortress, causing the war fortress to lose power and fall from the sky.
Or, use the high altitude and high speed of the Eagle to jump directly into the sky, and then dive straight down on top of the enemy's war fortress to focus fire on the enemy's magic cannon.
Use high-explosive shells to blow up the enemy's magic cannon. If you're lucky, it may even cause the magic element of the magic cannon to become disordered, causing a fatal explosion.
The other option is to attack the command platform on the war fortress. The powerful shells are comparable to the explosive bombs of the Archmage. Once they hit the command platform, even the Lich will be killed or injured.
The eagle-style coordination is extremely tacit, and in just a few minutes, they can easily shoot down an undead war fortress.

, the soul is flying and terrified.
Nowadays, the dark mages on those war fortresses are quite arrogant. As soon as they see the black lightning-like silhouette of the eagle, they immediately turn to avoid it.
Although the undead war fortress has a numerical advantage, it is like a herd of bison being chased by vicious dogs. They can only hide everywhere and dare not confront them head-on.
Without vital air superiority, the Semitic navy's plan to open the siege with war fortresses failed.
Now they can only bravely rush south, using the north wind to push the ship as fast as possible, hoping to penetrate the elven navy's formation and open a way out.
As for other directions, I can no longer care about it.
There are more than 1,500 warships on the sea, opening up a vast battlefield that is more than ten nautical miles long and wide.
The two battleships of the Elf Kingdom Navy that were modified from the Ark Royal were exerting powerful firepower at this moment. The number of artillery guns on these two ships was nearly half more than that of the Victory class.
Under intensive artillery fire, the Semitic warship approaching the Ark Royal was quickly shot and sunk.
The elven navy guarding the two wings of the Royal Ark also rushed forward bravely to intercept the enemy's escape southward.
The sharp-shaped Elf naval warships moved up and engaged the Semitic warships at close range. A large number of Elf warships formed a front line to block the Semitic fleet.
The battleship fired its artillery across the front line at the enemy.
The naval battle turned into a traditional crossbow battle and a gun-jumping battle.
Captain Glendine, who has been paying attention to the Elf Navy, looked at it from a distance and sneered. These guys in the Elf Kingdom have battleships and still use the tactics of the previous era with the enemy. They are really stupid. You must laugh at them when you come back.
Those elven navy.
However, Captain Glendine does not know that almost all the artillery purchased by the Elf Kingdom from the Flying Eagle Group is here at the moment.
Although it is a family price, the artillery, shells and training artillery are already astronomically high.
Lorraine offered installment payments, barter, and tariffs to offset many convenient conditions. Under the call of the royal family, the elven citizens donated money one after another and sold iron to purchase more than 300 cannons.
King Carion IV also donated his Royal Ark to renovate two battleships.
However, the Elven Navy immediately owned nearly half of the world's battleships, and there were only five in the world.
I saw the Elf Kingdom Navy and the Semitic Navy shooting at each other with catapults and bows at close range, seizing the opportunity to ram each other hard with the hard ramming angle of the bow, and then hit the "crow's mouth", a kind of
Use the springboard with a hook on the head to jump onto the enemy's warship and engage in hand-to-hand combat.
The army of the Elf Kingdom is unknown. However, the elite rangers are famous all over the world, giving the world the impression that the elves are not good at close combat.
But in fact, the Elf Kingdom is isolated overseas, with the navy as the foundation of national power. The navy's sailors have extremely strong combat effectiveness and superb tactics.
When attacking, there are also

Bow and crossbow

Hand on the mast to accurately shoot the enemy leader.
The Semitic navy had stepped onto an iron plate, and the warships they had approached for close combat were blocked in this front line.
At this time, the Semitic sailors also risked their lives. If they could not break through the encirclement, they would all have to deal with it here today. One warship after another rushed up, first violently ramming it, and then clinging to the side of the ship. The sailors rushed forward with shouts.
People kept screaming and falling from the ship into the cold sea. In a short period of time, there was already a layer of corpses floating in the sea near the warships of the two armies, and the surging waves turned pink.

The officers and soldiers of Ruman on the battleship watched with excitement. They also fought like this two years ago.
No matter how much Captain Glendine laughs at the fact that the elves are lagging behind an era, he used to command like this. He has only been rich for a few days, and he already looks down on his class brothers.
By this time, Captain Glendine had to admit that the overall quality of the Elf Navy was indeed better than that of his own men.
Those damn sissies dared to fight even if they were ruthless.
Compared with the enemy's Ark Royal, our Victory has no advantages other than being equipped with a steam engine.
But steam engines have nothing to do with sailors like them.
"I was compared to others~!"
This thought made Captain Glendine a little angry. He slammed his cigar on the ground, lifted up his shiny leather boots and crushed it hard, roaring: "Stop fucking sleepwalking, give me a hard blow."
Hit, kick the shit out of the demon's belly."
The officers and soldiers shouted in unison, feeling that they could not let the elves be looked down upon by the sissies and let them laugh at themselves for being useless except for artillery.
The firepower of the battleships was even more ferocious, and the fast gunboats with high morale even bravely inserted themselves into the enemy fleet, using their cannons and bayonets to shoot wildly at the soldiers and superstructures on the Semitic warships at close range.
The entire superstructure of a Semitic warship exposed to the firepower of the Ruman fleet was blown up by fast gunboats. The three masts had long since disappeared. The deck was filled with soldiers killed by the artillery, and blood flowed down the deck.
It dripped into the sea, and there were only a few living people left on the entire battleship.
Several gunboats set their sights on it. The water jets caused by the shells kept splashing in the front and rear of the battleship, and two large holes had been blown out of the hull.
The battleship that lost its mast could only drift precariously on the sea.
The gunboat was like a shark that smelled blood and rushed forward, ready to drive it completely into the bottom of the sea at close range.
At this time, a striking white flag suddenly rose on the dilapidated Semitic warship, and a Semitic man vigorously waved a white cloth tied to a wooden stick.
This made the Ruman navy officers and soldiers on the gunboat look at each other in shock. Unexpectedly, the enemy actually surrendered.
But then I thought about it, what else could it do if it didn't surrender?
The sails were lost and most of the crew were killed or injured. If they didn't surrender, they would die.
The Ruman navy had no intention of taking prisoners in the fierce battlefield in front of them. A gunboat approached and glanced at the Semitic warship. It was barely able to float.
Dozens of injured Semites stood under the white flag on the deck of the battleship, with expressions of resignation on their faces, looking numbly at the black artillery on the gunboat.
The captain on the gunboat waved to them carelessly and said loudly: "According to the provisions of the Geneva Convention, we guarantee your life safety. Now, throw the weapons into the sea and just stay here. We will take you in after the fight is over."
"
The Semitic sailors on the ship threw all their swords into the sea. Then they sat silently among the corpses on the deck and held the white flag high.
After the first Semitic warship surrendered, the nearby warships were bathed in powerful artillery fire, and upon seeing this, they also raised the white flag.
They can't outrun the human battleships, so there's no point in holding on.
This made Captain Glendine very satisfied. Surrender was the beginning of the enemy's collapse.
He had already won this battle, but he was not in the mood to take prisoners of war. He just followed the rules of the navy and asked the surrendered Semitic soldiers to throw away all their weapons, cut off the sails and even cut off the masts, and stopped where they were to wait.
Compared to the vulgar bastards of the Army, the Navy is a high-tech branch and elite. Their wartime practices are more civilized. As long as the enemy navy warships surrender, the officers and soldiers will generally be treated reasonably.
After a long fierce battle with the battleship fleet, most of the Semitic navy with broken battleships saw that the situation was over and chose to surrender.
There are also Semitic captains who are stubborn, ready to fight to the end, and plan to retaliate against the high priest. But at this time, his subordinates are often the first to stand up and oppose.
After a brief hand-to-hand battle, the captain and his men who wanted to resist were torn apart by the sailors who wanted to survive. The battleship quickly raised the white flag, fearing that if it was delayed for a second, it would attract countless cannonballs.
In the center of the Semitic fleet, Admiral Orgen let out a feeble sigh and wailed in his heart, secretly thinking: Everything is lost~!
"If I had known better, I shouldn't have listened to the lich's nonsense." Admiral Orgen scolded him directly in front of his men, and said angrily: "I didn't agree with this damn raid plan in the first place."
After saying that, there was another long sigh. The officers under the admiral all had pale faces and stood silently like wooden figures.
It was too late to say regrets at this time. The fleet was surrounded on three sides and could not break out.
"Think of a solution, what else can we do?" Admiral Orgen shouted manically in the cabin of the flagship.
If defeated, even if he could break through, what awaited him would be the merciless wrath of the high priest.
The soldiers and civilians under his command looked at each other in confusion, and then lowered their heads to look at the toes of the battleship. No one dared to raise their head to look at the admiral.
"Samuel, tell me." Orgen randomly named someone.
Colonel Samuel was speechless for a moment, and said naa naa: "Maybe we should connect all the battleships together, just like fighting a land battle..."
Admiral Orgen grabbed his collar angrily, shouted in his face: "Idiot, idiot, the enemy has cannons~!"
Colonel Samuel grimaced and reached out his hands in despair.
At this moment, a black figure jumped down from the air and broke into the cabin of the flagship.
"Who~!" The guards roared angrily, pulling out their swords and pointing them at the figure who suddenly rushed in.
The black shadow stood still in front of the crowd, revealing a pair of luminous green eyes unique to the lich.
"Master Marcel~!" Admiral Orgen seemed to have seen a savior. He pushed aside the crowd and stepped forward to grab Lich Marcel's hand tightly. He said anxiously: "The fleet is surrounded. We are
Air power is needed to support the breakout."
Lich Marcel was silent for a moment, and then said slowly in a hoarse voice: "I am here to inform the general that the energy crystals of the War Fortress will soon be exhausted, and we will retreat."
For Admiral Orgen, this was simply a bolt from the blue. Marcel's words directly sentenced him and the Semitic naval fleet to death.
Without air cover, Maple Leaf Danlin's war fortress can sink them like ants.
"You can't do this~!" Admiral Orgen shouted angrily at the Lich: "We still have a chance. It will get dark soon, and we can break out at night."
Lich Marcel was unmoved and said coldly in a hoarse voice: "The energy of the war fortress is not enough to last for one night. If we do not retreat in time, all the war fortresses will not be able to return to Ryder."
In the Lich's view, a war fortress as a strategic force is naturally much more important than a naval fleet.
Admiral Orgen was stunned for a moment, and then with a miserable expression on his face, he begged: "Master, you can't do this. For the sake of the Semites and the high priest, please give me a hand~!"
Lich Marcel shook his head decisively and said: "I can't destroy all the war fortresses."
"Then you can destroy all our Semitic navy~!" Admiral Orgen finally couldn't bear it anymore and exploded, glaring at the Lich Marcel and yelling sternly.
Marcel shook his sleeves and snorted coldly, saying: "You are the commander of the navy. I have no control over how I beat you."
Orgen was trembling with anger. He pointed at the Lich Marcel with trembling fingers. He gritted his teeth and said with a ferocious expression: "Okay, you are cruel enough. Just wait for me. I will accuse you in front of the high priest."
The crime of running away from battle."
Lich Marcel also jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and said fiercely to Orgen: "You can't defeat the enemy's fleet because you don't have the ability. What does it have to do with me? We lost money today."
There are more than 30 seats, so we have tried our best."
Orgen sneered and said solemnly: "Do you think the high priest will believe you?"
Lich Marcel was stunned for a moment, then turned around and walked out of the cabin, saying: "You should still care about yourself."
Instantly disappeared into the frantic air.
Admiral Orgen looked at the crowded warships outside the cabin and was speechless.
After a while, Samuel whispered behind him: "General, what should we do?"
Admiral Orgen turned around and smiled miserably, his eyes became hollow, and he said feebly: "What else can we do? That bastard High Priest used us Semis as tools for his ambitions, and now we have been abandoned, like spoiled rag dolls
Just as abandoned~!”
He fell down on the beautiful chair, lowered his head and waved his hands, saying: "Send the order to the whole army to fend for themselves.
This war was a mistake from the beginning, but I realized it too late."
It was getting dark, and with a sharp roar, all the war fortresses of the undead clan hid in the clouds and fled the battlefield quickly. The Maple Leaf Danlin people rushed up after them.
As the flagship's order to "make its own decisions" was passed on, the captains all understood that the defeat was certain.
This surprise attack, which was full of confidence from the beginning, turned into a self-inflicted joke. In fact, the moment the Elf Navy appeared, failure was already doomed.
The naval ships that were fighting fiercely with the Ruman fleet and the Elf fleet on the periphery gradually hoisted white flags. The warships slightly behind did not face the pressure of artillery fire, so they were still hesitant and had the last bit of luck.
When the transport fleets in the center, which were protected by the Semitic navy at all levels, knew that the situation was over, they all turned around and sailed to the northern coast. They carried infantry on board. The captains were still making their last efforts.
All of these transport ships will run aground on the beach or on the rocks and stay there, waiting to be captured by humans.
But it was getting dark soon, so the infantrymen could seize the time to leave the ship and wade ashore.
As for their fate after landing, it is beyond the control of the captains. Maybe they will find the Semitic army on land, or maybe they will plunge into the siege of humans. It depends on their luck.
As for their navy, they have tried their best, but the enemy is too powerful, and they also have a bunch of pig-like teammates who will try their best to deceive their teammates.
On the top of the Temple of Light, Lorraine put down the telescope, rubbed his sore eyes, then stretched for a long time, sighed and said, "I can sleep well tonight."
When Lord Lorraine dragged his tired body after not sleeping for several days, he walked into the Papal Palace, kicked everyone out, and opened his arms to take Hilmeria and Vera into his arms.
At this time, the city of Fantino erupted in cheers.
The cheers resounded through the heaven and earth like a tide, reaching into the sky.
Hilmeria put her pretty face on Lorraine's shoulder and asked gently: "Did you win?"
