On the surface of the South Osa Sea, there are already a large number of corpses and broken planks floating. The original blue sea was stained with blood and turned a dark red. Countless sharks wandered happily inside, enjoying the **** smell and deliciousness of the lure fish. Human flesh.

Not far away, the battle is still going on. Many Hawke’s gunboats have already escaped the siege. Although their armed sailors suffered heavy casualties, they killed all the enemies who jumped onto the deck. There were corpses on the deck, and blood even soaked the survivors’ ankles, and followed the gaps on the deck. Slowly dripping into the cabin, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which was also accompanied by the unique salty smell of the ocean.

After several hours of fighting, no less than 50 enemy ships were sunk and hundreds of enemies were killed. But they also paid a heavy price. A gunboat’s ammunition was hit by a huge crossbow shot by the enemy. The flames above ignited the gunpowder placed inside, causing the entire ship to explode from the inside. Everything on the ship, whether it was the Winsters or the Alliance sailors who attacked the deck, was blown to pieces. The violent explosion also spread to the surrounding area. Several Alliance warships.

In addition, there were three gunboats because they could not escape the enemy's siege. In order to prevent the guns from falling into the enemy's hands, the surviving sailors lit their ammunition depots and died together with the enemy.

Under the horrible weapons of the Winster Fleet, the alliance's sailors were distracted. They had no intention of continuing to fight, but there was no way to escape. Naval battles are no better than land battles. They can easily escape when they lose in land battles, but they are boundless here. In the sea, they can only abandon the boat and escape, and then die in the belly of the fish.

"fire!"

After breaking away from the siege of the Alliance warships, Hawke’s gunboat took advantage of more flexibility and quickly moved away from them, and aimed its sideboard at the enemy ship that was catching up. In a close salvo, the artillery hit the hull of the Alliance warship accurately, smashing the wood on the surface of the warship to pieces. This is not finished. One of the cannonballs just hit the draft of the enemy ship and broke on it. A big hole, the surrounding sea water immediately poured frantically into the ship's body.

The cabin was flooded with crazily water, and those Alliance sailors could not care about fighting the enemy. They picked up all kinds of tools they could use in an attempt to fill the gap. But just as they were busy, the second round of shelling came in an instant, with four shells. It easily penetrated the wooden hull and wreaked havoc in the cabin. The crowd inside was instantly plowed into blood. Their bodies were beaten to pieces, and the entire cabin was as cruel and **** as a slaughterhouse.

"Damn! What a terrible weapon is this, we can't beat them at all!" On the deck of the damaged warship, the captain hid behind the side of the ship, while directing the sailors to counterattack with the ship-borne ballista, while swearing, he had been in the army for nearly ten years. , This is the first time I have encountered such a powerful opponent.

At this moment, a sailor covered in blood ran up to him and slid his feet and fell directly in front of him. He didn't care to get up, so he lay on the ground and shouted in horror. "Captain, there are four more big holes in the cabin, and a lot of water has entered. Our people were attacked while repairing the gap, and many people were killed!"

"What?" The captain was shocked, and he stood up directly, but at this moment, he heard a shrill sound of broken wood. The battleship shook suddenly, and the entire hull tilted to the left. The captain didn't have the slightest defense, he was thrown out in an instant, and fell into the cold sea with a scream. He plopped his head out of the sea, panting for breath, and when he was relieved, he quickly turned to look. To his own warship, only to see that half of his warship had sunk into the sea. The sailors screamed and grabbed the right side of the ship to prevent themselves from falling into the sea.

"Damn it, why did it become like this?"

He thought to himself that he saw a large piece of floating wooden fragments not far away. The wooden plank could just bear the weight of him alone, but when he swam towards the wooden plank, he suddenly saw a few triangles in the corner of his eye. The dorsal fin swam towards him quickly, and the captain was shocked and quickly accelerated, but how could he swim faster than the fish alone, in just a few seconds, he found desperately that he was surrounded by four sharks.

The four sharks swam around him, but they didn’t rush forward in a hurry. The captain’s heart was occupied by despair. He wanted to scream, but suddenly his throat was blocked by something, and he couldn’t make any sound. He didn’t dare to continue. Swim to the plank, I could only watch the encircling circle around me getting smaller and smaller.

About a minute later, the blood floated up and dyed the small piece of sea water red, and the four sharks also swam to the direction of the sunken ship with satisfaction, because there was plenty of food for them to feast on.

This is just an insignificant episode. Since leaving the battle, Hawke’s gunship has been bombarding the Alliance warships pursuing them with the benefit of artillery. A large number of warships sank on the bottom of the sea, and the sailors on it were hunted by sharks wandering in the sea. Those were fixed by iron chains. The slaves on the ship were even more miserable. They could only watch the sea water poured into the cabin desperately, drowning in it.

Faced with the artillery of the Winster Fleet, the Alliance Naval Commander Rodney finally made up his mind to retreat. Since his flagship has always tried to avoid being at the forefront, the flagship suffered very little "care", and only one shell happened to be smashed. Go through the tower on the deck and smash the ballista inside to pieces.

He stood on the deck, looking at the sunken ships, broken planks and floating corpses everywhere on the sea~lightnovelpub.net~, he had no fighting spirit, he shouted and ordered the flag bearer to issue a retreat order, and then called the adjutant to let the ship cabin. The slaves speeded up their movements and retreated in the opposite direction. The flagship’s retreat was quickly witnessed by the warships that were pursuing or about to retreat. These captains quickly ordered a retreat together, but the warships retreat could not be so fast. The Hawke gunboat also seized this opportunity to continue to the retreating fleet. The shelling instantly disrupted their retreat plan.

"Chasing! Leave all the enemies in this sea to feed the fish!"

Sigurd shouted loudly. His order was passed on to the other warships by the flag bearer. The captains of each ship immediately ordered the sails to pursue them. Although they were advancing against the wind, the Hawker gunboats moved faster than the enemy's paddle warfare. The ship was still faster. The enemy ships that were behind were quickly overtaken. Under the command of the captain, the Hawke gunboat slammed into the fleeing galley warship, forcing the opponent to slow down, and then the muskets deployed on the deck The sailors stood in line and aimed their guns at the opposite Alliance ship. They didn't need to aim at all, because the enemy sailors were all crowded on the deck and messed up.

Bang bang bang ——

Fire and gunpowder sprayed from the muzzle, and dozens of sailors fell on the deck of the enemy ship. The others were even more flustered and no longer wanted to resist. As the first man dropped his weapon and surrendered, more and more The people also knelt down and surrendered.
