The nine Norma battleships surrounded him, and the commander-in-chief of the Norma Kingdom's fleet was looking at the West Wind with a serious face.

Jonah stood beside him and whispered: "General, don't worry, we still have nine ships with nearly 3,000 soldiers on board. As long as we get close to the past, the sailors will swarm up and there is no reason to lose."

"I'm afraid they will run away." The commander-in-chief also believes that nearly 3,000 people rushed onto the ship and hacked and there is no reason to lose, but this commander with rich experience in naval battles also understands a truth. , It is absolutely impossible to let the opponent pick up the ship stupidly, and he will definitely drive at full speed, making use of the strong defensive characteristics of his big iron ship to fight the enemy in artillery battle.

Jonah said, "Escape? General, the other party is an iron ship. How can it run fast? You see, it was slow and staggered from the shipyard just now, so slow as a tortoise. It makes no difference, how can it outperform our galleon?"

This makes sense, and the commander feels a little at ease. Although the big iron ship was amazing in the artillery battle just now, it did travel relatively slowly and was like a snail. Such a broken ship, if your galleon can't catch up to catch the ship, then you might as well jump into the sea and kill yourself.

All he needs to do now is to be careful of the enemy ship's gunfire while rushing over to the ship.

The commander issued a series of orders to make the ships watch out for artillery fire, and flexibly wait for the opportunity to connect.

but……

They didn’t know that in the previous round of shelling, the Westwind ran so slowly, like a snail, only because the crew of the power crew on board were all rookies. Sailors, who were temporarily captured and turned into the power group, they just carefully experimented with how the steam engine played, but they didn't turn on the power fully, or in other words, they didn't even use one-third of the speed.

However, after the crooked voyage just now, the sailors have a little understanding of what this power system is all about.

This is not a very complicated machine, unlike computer equipment that requires a long time of study before it can be used.

After a short period of learning, anyone can quickly get started.

The sailers had just gotten acquainted with the steam engine and heard the command from the captain: "Full speed, this ship is about to start maneuvering operations."

"OK! Just try to see what this boat can run into." The sailing operators were very excited, adding coal, adding coal, and getting power, GOGOGO!

The steam engine ran wildly, and the huge power was output to the large water wheels on both sides of the hull through the rotating shaft. The two huge water wheels slammed and turned wildly.

The ship’s helmsman couldn’t keep up with the dynamic response for a while, and the ship rushed forward with a sweep of the ground. He actually rushed straight towards the enemy ship. He was shocked. At this time, all fools knew that they had to avoid gang wars. Of course the helmsman also knew this truth, and hurriedly hit the rudder desperately.

The Norma battleship on the opposite side saw the Westwind rushing towards him, thinking that the enemy’s mind was blocked, and was about to be overjoyed. Suddenly, the Westwind suddenly turned sideways. The speed was incredible. Dumped it.

It turned out that on the deck of the Westwind, there was no tall ship building, only a very short ship building. Its design concept was completely different from that of the current large three-masted galleon.

Although the three-masted galleons of the Norma Kingdom were also equipped with artillery, their design ideas were more biased towards "sea fortresses". The main method of play was to collide with the enemy ships, connect the ships, and then let the sailors jump to fight. Towering ship buildings are built on these ships, and soldiers can easily attack enemy ships from the upper floor.

The towering ship building, coupled with the high masts and sails, is of course not flexible enough to steer, and the ship can easily capsize if it turns in a hurry.

But the Westwind is a "short ship", with a very low building, no masts and sails, only a round chimney, and its steering flexibility far exceeds that of a three-masted galleon.

Once the Westwind turned over, it turned into a fleet facing the Norma Kingdom with its side.

This is exactly the most advantageous T position in modern naval warfare!

No orders from Robb and Madeleine were required for the gunners on the ship to capture this rare opportunity.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

One side of the Westwind was fully fired. In an instant, a dozen dwarf artillery and several Katyushas fired at the same time. The physical shells and magical fireballs flew out together. The picture was extremely spectacular.

The Norma fleet rushed to the forefront of the battleship, and it was hit by several cannons in an instant, and sawdust was thrown away by the physical cannonballs.

After eating a lot of fireballs, the magic defensive array flashed beautiful ripples, and after all, it could not hold the intensive blows, and it burst into magic light with a slap, and then, the fireballs behind hit firmly. On the ship, causing a fire.

A magician used water magic to put out the fire, but followed by a bunch of arcane missiles that flew up and hit the magician continuously. The poor magician screamed and fell dead on the deck.

The fire can't be extinguished!

The crew on the ship had to jump off the ship again, and the rabbit merchants who were held in the lower deck also hurriedly jumped into the sea. When they jumped, Robb took an underwater breath and hid obediently under the water.

Robb saw from a distance that a rabbit man who was jumping into the sea was still holding a dead companion in his hand. It seems that the round of artillery attack accidentally killed a rabbit by mistake. He looked around, no one paid attention to him. , Quietly threw a shaman's resurrection technique at the dead rabbit man.

The shaman's resurrection technique is different from the resurrection technique of the light priest and the dark priest. It does not fly out of angels or other feathers. The animation effect is relatively simple, that is, the green light flashes and it ends. In this big sea battle roaring with artillery fire, whoever noticed that there was a green light flashing on the rabbit's body.

The dead rabbit suddenly opened his eyes, scared that the companion who jumped into the sea holding him yelled, but he just yelled and fell into the water, unable to scream even if he wanted to.

"Shelling!"

"Fire!"

The artillery from both sides shouted with all their strength, and the artillery shells kept flying around.

After a volley of horizontally drawn artillery fire from the Westwind, the dwarf artillery needed to be reloaded with shells and gunpowder, and the magic item was also sprayed out of ammunition, and the "magic container" energy storage box needed to be replaced.

A short firepower gap!

How could the battleships of the Norma Kingdom let go? In an instant, the remaining eight battleships fired at the same time, and a large number of physical artillery shells flew over and hit the steel ship.

The magic props also fired frantically, countless fireballs and ice arrows, and at the same time they shot over...
