"Charge over! Charge over! Don't be afraid, the Anchor keeps moving forward! Hit the place with the most ships!"
A Kirk ship fearlessly passed through the ranks of the Gotland fleet and passed a burning warship, whose sailors were desperately jumping into the sea.
As for underwater, you can see people wearing armor being dragged into the sea by the armor that was supposed to protect them. Now these expensive armors have completely transformed into death talismans.
For these people, Prolev will only think that they are stupid. Wearing heavy armor to fight on the ship is not seeking death. As a squadron commander, he also wears leather armor, and at most an iron helmet.
Next to the anchor was a naval battle battlefield. Ships were sinking, ships were fighting on the side, and ships were stuck with other ships. There were screams everywhere, and death was everywhere.
The Vladimir, the flagship of the entire Ross fleet, suppressed the entire battlefield with its powerful firepower. However, it was a pity that one Vladimir could not turn the tide of the battle. It even had to stay in the port because there were not enough frigates.
It projects firepower outside and beats all the unlucky ones it catches into sieves.
For example, right now, it has just set fire to the port guard tower in Visby Port, but that's it. It can't go any further, such as sending people to occupy it.
Although the Ross fleet charged hard towards the port, hoping to encircle and annihilate the Gotland fleet in the harbor, the gap between the fleets was also revealed.
It was difficult for Roman to command the Ross fleet well, because there were too many people who were afraid of the enemy on the battlefield, and it was difficult for the squadron commanders below to control their ships. Under such circumstances, the assault of the Ross fleet naturally became each doing its own thing. How could this be possible?
Break through the tight battle lines of the Gotland fleet.
This is the reason why Rostislav has been reluctant to fight a naval war. The combat effectiveness of his hundred-ship fleet is uneven, and the nature of the ships is uneven. There are levied merchant ships, Ivangorod's standing navy, and
With temporarily joined alliance ships, such a force is really difficult to control.
But in this predicament, one person decided to change something. He arranged some things and moved some things from the ships that his men could control. Then he rushed to the harbor of Visby. This
The man was Prolev, and the ship was the Anchor.
Facing the Anchor's random charge, many Gotlanders could not believe what they were seeing. How could anyone dare to charge into their midst like this?
The Kirk ship does have a height advantage over the longship, but this advantage does not mean that it is invincible. In fact, if it is besieged by multiple longships, this thing will still be destroyed.
So in the eyes of the Gotlanders, this Kirk ship is just sending death.
But what they didn't expect was that the Kirk ship had no intention of fighting with the ships on the road. It moved dexterously among the ships, crushed several small boats, and rushed into the port.
.
Prolev personally controlled the navigation of the ship, and the skills of this old captain were also fully demonstrated. In his hands, the ship was like a part of his body.
Then it hit those Visby warships that were entangled like a hydra, relying on the impact force coming along the way, it hit them firmly.
The strong impact caused the Iron Anchor to crush the long ship in front of it, and then hit another long ship behind it, smashing into the center of the ship pile. After a loud noise, the ships continued to collapse.
The "bridge" that the troops on the ship passed through collapsed, and all the sailors and soldiers on it were shaken into the sea.
"Run, run quickly! From now on, everyone can do their best! If anyone can survive until the war, I will fulfill my promise! Everyone will become a rich man!"
Prolev smashed a Norseman who was dazed by the impact with his shield, and then rushed out with his crew. They fled their ship like they were fleeing death.
All this was too sudden. Many North people were either shaken into the sea or thrown to the ground when they crossed the "ship bridge". They were extremely confused. Therefore, no one stopped these Russians for a while. These Russians
The people slipped into the port smoothly, and then they rushed into the strongest building in front of them - the Port Authority.
And next, everyone understood why they ran so fast, because the Kirk ship burned and turned into a torch at a very fast speed, and because he was in the center of this "ship knot", the flames
It also spreads like a fierce horse!
Prolev filled his ships with grease - more of which no one wanted in the entire fleet - and rushed towards the gathering place of Gotland's ships.
The effect of this risky behavior was very good. As the flames continued to spread, the Gotland fleet would soon find that they could not land at all.
It is impossible to protrude overseas. Although the Ross fleet cannot annihilate them, it is enough to surround them in the port. If the Gotland fleet attacks, it will be besieged by the Ross people.
The North people who reacted naturally turned their anger towards Prolev and his party. Many people saw them fleeing into the port authority, so the next step was naturally to besiege the port authority.
But it is a pity that the tax bureau is very strong, and the Russians immediately blocked all the entrances here. The attackers can only enter through the specially reserved openings, and entering such an opening is looking for death.
.
After these Norsemen failed to attack, they began to set fire to the building. This was the best way to deal with the situation. It was much more convenient to burn the people inside than to chew them.
Unfortunately, the development of the war situation no longer allowed them to do this. Mayor Haakon quickly sent a messenger urging them to quickly board the central battlefield. The situation there was dangerous.
These people had no choice but to give up their actions unwillingly. It was more important to rescue the city center. Moreover, the battle there was quite dangerous, otherwise they would not have been rushed there in such a hurry.
Prolev and the others saved their lives as a result, but they still did not plan to come out after the besiegers dispersed. They planned to hold on to the building until the Russians reached the port.
The previous battles were all a waste of lives. Prolev and his friends also lost many people. Such many casualties made them no longer dare to go out wandering anymore.
But what they didn't expect was that the Russians came much faster than they expected. The Moscow Battalion quickly came to the port area and killed all the Russians they saw.
Moscow was sent by Rostislav specifically to occupy the port. It had been delayed due to chaotic organization before, and now it was belatedly arrived, but for Prolev and others, it was already very fast.
When all the Russian soldiers arrived at the port, this basically spelled the death of the Gotland fleet. They were unable to break through the blockade of the Russian fleet, but they were even less able to land and dock. Their next option was to surrender.
However, the Moscow Battalion could not stay at the port for long, because the fire had already burned, and it was getting bigger and stronger. The Russians had to demolish the houses on the spot to build firebreaks, but this also meant that the Gothic
The Lan fleet was completely unable to land on the shore.
The reinforcements on the port side have been completely blocked, which means that the battle situation on the other side has also fallen into passivity. Losing the continuous reinforcements in the port is very fatal for that side, and it has an extremely exaggerated blow to combat effectiveness and morale.
.
The Russians kept advancing, and their swords were dyed red again and again, but they still advanced bravely, because the Visby people could not stop them for long.
Soon they arrived at Visby's Town Hall, where the city's residents held a general assembly and was the political center of Gotland, where important matters concerning the island were dealt with.
This is a majestic hall, with a scale that is unmatched in the entire northern world, and its strength is also rarely matched by others, so it naturally became the last stronghold of the defenders.
Because of this, now that the Russians have already arrived here, the outcome of the war has actually come out. There is only one question left, which is to capture the city hall and then declare the end of the war.
