　　 After a while, Valkyrie's towering mast tip broke open the calm sea level in Blackbeard's eyes.

　　 The two sides entered the deck view, the relative distance was 5 kilometers, the relative speed was 16 knots, and the countdown counted down to the last 10 minutes of the close battle.

　　 "Let down the boat!" "Abandon the boat!"

　　 "Queen Anne turned five degrees to the right, and the plans for each ship were launched to disturb the wind direction!" "Left rudder three degrees, T head grabs the wind!"

　　 "Romantic and Golden Yoke seized the T tail, raised their shells, and suppressed Bai Zhi's range of wandering!" "The sails are blasted with the most wind, lift the bow, and make a positive breakthrough!"

　　 "Boys, let the arrogant Bai Zhi pay the price!" "Valkyrie, go forward!"

　　 completely different styles, almost exactly the same frequency, within one minute, Lorraine and Blackbeard quickly completed their final adjustments.

　　 The thick sling was cut with a sharp axe, and the heavy assault boat was thrown into the sea along the pulley.

　　 Valkyrie's speed increased sharply.

　　 During this process, Wang also led the sails of the stern sail, pushing the stringer to run, adjusting the huge sail from the cut wind state to the maximum blast.

The 　　 stern sail surface swelled up, Valkyrie completed the final acceleration at the expense of giving up flexibility, and the speed reached an appalling 11.5 knots with only 70% wind exposure!

　　 Like a wind, like an electric switch!

Under the huge thrust, her sword like a sharp bow rose high in the wind and waves, constructing a huge elevation angle of 5 to 8 degrees, like a horse running out of control, so domineering that even the waves were stepped under her and screamed. .

　　 Opposite her, the performance of the Blackbeard Pirates was equally impressive.

　　 This powerful pirate group has completely turned into loose sand in the vast sea.

　　The ship and the ship landed staggered and kept at a distance of 100 meters. The waterline drawn by the sailing was entangled and entangled, and together they formed a chaotic and disordered radiation pattern with Valkyrie as the source.

　　 Lorraine saw a group of sharks rushing towards him in a daze, scrambling for one another, a hundred rushes.

　　 The purpose of the two clusters of left and right is the easiest to judge.

There are a total of nine of them, consisting of the Bagh type and the Brigentine type, who are good at cutting wind, one large and one small. They are far away from the Valkyrie route, dancing like two huge pliers. Clamp to the fleet circle behind Lorraine.

　　 Then came the Romance and the Golden Yoke in the hands of Blackbeard. The two sea turrets lowered their sails two kilometers away, one left and one right anchors were placed horizontally, and the dense gun barrels protruded out of the cabin.

　　The way they use their firepower is somewhat similar to the battle line mode that the military is good at. The choice of the T-tail is also in line with the line position beloved by a series of maritime powers such as Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands.

　　 But the real battle line is parallel, and they are arc-shaped. The real battle line will try to shorten the ship-to-ship distance. Like them, the two ships are separated by a full one kilometer.

　　 After all, their existence is never meant to destroy or sink.

　　 Lorraine knows that as the hunting component of the Blackbeard Pirates, their main function is to restrict the space for prey on the unobstructed sea, just like a fence set around the jungle.

　　 The hunting ground is in the middle of the fence, and today’s prey is undoubtedly Valkyrie, and the hunter is the Queen Anne’s Revenge and the four gallons surrounding her.

　　 "The enemy ship is 1,500 away, five ships are scattered, and they are facing the enemy!"

　　 Lorraine heard the announcement of the observation routine, and his voice was loud and steady, and he couldn't hear the panic of less enemies and more.

　　 This kind of self-confidence revealed in his bones made Lorraine couldn't help laughing.

　　 He shook his head and said to himself: "His Royal Highness, times have changed..."

　　……

　　Circular formation, Alvette.

　　 Different from Valkyrie’s calmness of going into danger, the round formation that gathered almost all the main forces of the direct fleet is filled with the urgency of the battle.

　　 "The left wing meets the enemy! At a distance of 6,200, Bag 1, Brigentine 3, the Dark Champagne and Bellflower are lagging."

　　 "Order Brunhild and Greyback to support, and Captain Richard of Brunhild is in charge of overall command."

　　 "The right wing meets the enemy! At a distance of 8100, Bag 2, Brigentine 3, Cornflower was shot, Wisteria Lan is rushing to rescue!"

　　 "Order the Gundal to meet the enemy with frigatebirds and sea turtledoves, and Captain Green of Gundal is in charge of the command, so that he can bring the injured cornflower back to the main line as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

　　 Successive warnings of receiving the enemy blew up above the Alvette. Those battles were all out of the deck's field of vision. Catalina couldn't see it. The sound of the rumbling cannons had already passed into her ears from the far side of the sea.

　　 She dislikes such invisible on-the-spot command very much.

　　 In her perception, the information she looked at was like a cold, emotionless silk thread, and she was an inferior doll hanging from the silk thread.

　　 Received the enemy.

　　 Whether to meet or not, yes.

　　 greet the formation, order ship? Wing ship? Auxiliary ship?

　　 Is the command authority delegated? Yes.

　　 Confirm the order is issued? confirm.

　　 She felt like a shopkeeper who shook her hands, issuing irresponsible orders, stingy with her emotions and emotions, and not even paying attention to the results of the orders.

　　 But she has no other choice.

　　 Because of this battle, the Yalvette was not only an admiral ship of the direct fleet, but also a decoy ship for the entire battle.

　　 According to Lorraine’s first set of plans to meet the enemy, the battlefield is in the Basseterre waters. The enemy includes a combined fleet of the Blackbeard Pirates and Skull Bay Pirates.

　　 Even with the Valkyrie Reign-level blessing, it is difficult for the direct fleet to defeat an enemy of this size within a reasonable damage range.

　　 So the plan is divided into three steps.

The first step is to divide. Valkyrie will drag the most elite Blackbeard in the enemy fleet. The minimum requirement is to attract Queen Anne’s Revenge and two sea forts. As long as these three heavy fires are isolated from the main battlefield. Going out, the warships directly under the fleet avoided the possibility of sudden death.

　　 The second step is to lure the enemy. All the warships are concentrated in the circle, but Brigentine is placed on the periphery.

　　 The round formation is to highlight the particularity of Alvette, telling the opponent that Dereky is on the Alvette.

　　Brigentine is to expand and unfold the battlefield, weaken the defense of the round formation without suspicion, and create opportunities for the opponent to connect step by step.

　　 The third step is to close the net.

The Alvette and the sea parrot and the Jaeger that closely protected her temporarily deployed the best stormtroopers of the direct fleet except the Valkyrie. The total number is as high as 700, far exceeding one Galen and two ships. The number of sailors on the Brig ship.

Lorraine also paired Leif and his two deputies to command the stormtroopers, which maximized the ability of the Alvette to connect to the ship~lightnovelpub.net~ From now on, everything is in Lorraine’s plan. Sentenced.

Valkyrie was more attractive than Lorraine imagined. Not only did he retain the Queen Anne’s Revenge and the two forts, but he also towed away four additional five-level galens, so that the Blackbeard pirates could only use limited firepower to hit the circle. Array.

Relying on the nine-pound, small twelve and eighteen-pound naval guns of these Bagh ships and Brigentine, it was difficult to threaten the thick-skinned round formation, but Catalina still hijacked them outside the main battlefield as planned. , Also sent a five-level Galen ship and a six-level Brig ship to support, using a sledge-knife momentum to successfully weaken his defense to the attractive state of "there are loopholes, but the problem is not big".

　　 Now everything is ready, all Katerina needs to wait is the Prisoner Fleet.

　　 She waited patiently...

　　 "Left flank! Brunhild wounded a Brigentine, and he is fighting the Bagh ship with the Bellflower!"

　　 "Right wing! Cornflower was shot again and broke, and the frigate bird sank the Brigating ship. The Sea Dove and the Bagh ship in front of him were in a stalemate, and Gendal is pursuing another Bagh ship!"

　　 "Enemy attack from the rear! One five-level Galen, two Baghs, 22 remaining ships!"

　　 "Galen-type logo confirmed! It is the flagship of the Viking pirate regiment Eriksen, the enemy fleet..."

　　 Leif, who was dozing off, sat up with a cry.

　　 "The Erickson, the Viking pirate regiment... Bonnet, no wonder I haven't been able to find you. So you changed the ship and hid in Skull Bay..."
