Boom boom boom—

A series of explosions almost made the world tremble, and the flames caused by the simultaneous detonation of a large amount of gunpowder instantly engulfed the outermost coalition warships. Dozens of warships were smashed to pieces, and the sailors on them flew into the sky. The surrounding warships were also shredded by the blast wave to shred the outer planks of the hull, or a hole was smashed by flying objects. The sawdust with spikes also flew around with the shock wave, cutting the sailor who was still on the deck, and even if he was unlucky, he was directly inserted into the key and died on the spot.

Seeing the flames soaring above the sea level, Sigurd's mind flashed, and he quickly ordered the warships to prepare for attack. Fortunately, in order to deal with the enemy's possible attack at any time, all Hawke gunships are in a state of preparation at all times. After being ordered by the commander to go on the expedition, the sailors raised their sails and left the port in batches.

The coalition forces in the chaos did not find the battleship Winster that rushed out. By the time they found out, the battleship Hawke was already lined up, pointed one side of the ship at them, and all four gun windows were opened. The muzzle was pointed at the enemy far away.

"fire!"

Rumble—

At the moment the artillery fired, four sparks bloomed on the side of Hawke's battleship, and the black shells flew towards the enemy ship at high speed. Almost instantly, they crossed hundreds of meters of space and slammed into the enemy ship connected by chains. After smashing the planks on the surface of the hull, the shells carrying the power of terror pierced the hull again, destroying everything inside. Or it happened to penetrate the tall ship pole, cut it in the middle, and then smashed it heavily on the deck of the ship, crushing the sailors who could not dodge, and the warship that received such a heavy blow then slowly sank, only not sinking. One meter, he was pulled by the iron cable.

At the same time as the Hawke's gunboats fired, the long-barreled guns deployed on the city walls also tried to fire at the enemy ships. However, due to the limitation of the range, the fired shells basically fell through, and they had no effect except for smashing a few splashes. Upon seeing this, in order to avoid the continued consumption of ammunition, the officers ordered to stop shooting, admiring the performance of the navy brothers.

The coalition forces restrained by the iron ropes did not even have the strength to fight back for a while. They not only had to extinguish the rapidly spreading flames, but also dodge the cannonballs falling from the sky in a panic. Not only that, the heavy iron ropes were also fixed on the sunken ship. , Pulling the unsinked warship into the sea, several damaged warships were torn up as a result, and the sailors on it fell into the water one after another.

"Continue the shelling and send people back to the port to collect more fishing boats and fill them with gunpowder!"

Seeing the enemy fleet that could only be beaten passively, Sigurd's eyes lit up, and he gave a loud command to his messenger. After hearing this, the messenger hurriedly prepared the boat and returned to the port by boat. He also knew that it was a heavy blow. The best moment for the enemy, and there is only this chance.

More than ten minutes later, more than 30 small boats filled with gunpowder were sent to the battlefield. In order to save manpower, the generals who stayed behind in the city arrested prisoners directly from their cages, and forced them to drive gunpowder boats into the battle. There is no way, they will either obediently drive the gunpowder ship to attack the enemy, or be directly beheaded.

Seeing the boat that was going away, Sigurd's mouth rose up, and victory seemed to come in hand.

…

The next day.

There is nothing else on the sea outside Paisikia Port except a large number of floating planks and warship debris. The huge fleet was destroyed overnight, and was implicated by the iron wire under the powerful gunpowder weapons of the Winsters. The current coalition warship had no room to escape and fight back, and could only withstand the fierce shelling in despair. At the end of the battle, except for some of the warships that escaped from the iron ropes in time, all the others were buried in the sea, or were salvaged by Hawke's gunboats and became humble slaves.

The battle damage statistics for this battle continued until two days later. In this battle, in addition to the lives of dozens of death squad soldiers, the Winsters only had a huge amount of gunpowder and artillery shells, but the coalition forces paid an extremely painful price: about 329 ships were sunk. The ship, although the 17 warships untied the chains in time, they could not escape due to severe damage and were captured by the Winsters. In the end, only 35 warships escaped.

In addition to the sinking of the warship, more than three thousand people were buried in fish belly. More than one hundred people were salvaged in time and became captives along with the more than 200 sailors on the seventeen captured warships. The fate of these captives will change. It's extremely miserable, they will be sold as slaves by the Winsters, and they will never come to the fore.

This is a decisive battle forced to advance. Later historians commented on this battle, because it is clear that the original intention of Winster Commander Sigurd in this battle was to cause some trouble to the coalition forces and weaken their strength for the next day. He was ready for the decisive battle, but he did not expect that the effect of the gunpowder ship was so good, so he took advantage of the trend and launched an offensive, formally provoking the big sea battle that determined the fate of the remaining Winster army on the Osa Peninsula.

After lifting the blockade of Paisikia Port, Sigurd did not delay, and quickly sent the three legions stationed inside and outside the city to the Osa Peninsula. They did not encounter any trouble on the way because of the coalition’s maritime power. Almost destroyed in this battle.

News of the Paisikia naval battle soon spread throughout the Valdasia Peninsula and the Osa Peninsula with the pace of the messenger. UU Reading www. All countries in uukanshu.com were astonished by the strength of the Winsters. The long-depressed Winster threat theory re-emerged, flooding the courts of various countries. The kings set out to upgrade their armaments while sending envoys. The city-states on the Ossa Peninsula are also ready for war. The forces that have old grievances with the Akanania alliance urgently mobilize their troops, and a war is about to come.

In this context, all three armies of the Kingdom of Winster landed at the port of Lyktos, and after the assembly was completed, they moved forward to the Amatria stronghold on the front line. Charles learned the news of the arrival of the reinforcements for the first time. He was overjoyed. While waiting to meet the reinforcements, the plan to launch a counterattack against the Akananians also came up in his mind.

Now that the navy is defeated and almost destroyed, the army has been repulsed, and the military's heart is shaken. It is the best time for him to launch a counterattack. When the four-way army will attack together, the Akananias who have been defeated in succession will definitely be unable to resist. It would not be a fantasy to hit Patri Dawa.

However, Charles didn’t know that the armies of the three allied nations that embraced the Patridawa Council’s request to join the war had joined forces with the Akanania forces that had retreated to Elia’s stronghold to aid Albiquia and Belova. The combined armies of the three city-states of Kea and Menapia are as high as 20,000. Although there are many light infantry who are only responsible for harassment, the number is right there. If one of the four armies meets all the way, only The result of defeat.
