Chapter 752: No One Is Having a Hard Time (2)

"Guys, give these Central Continent bastards a taste of cannonballs."

"Oh!" Under the orders of the captains, the Hawker assault ships piloted by the Amba pirates from the southern continent approached the port area of Port St. Light and began a new round of firepower coverage, while the battleships on the periphery of the Sunset Column and the Hawker Heavy Armor Battleship and the Hawker Whale class battleships began to stop attacking and repair, after all, these warships had just bombarded Port of Holy Light in turn, whether it was the crew of the battleship or the No. 2 guns that had become extremely hot in the continuous bombardment, they had to rest.

After all, although the No. 2 gun has been improved in terms of firepower, range, and accuracy, and its weight has been reduced, it has also reduced the durability of the No. 2 gun, according to the artillery researchers, the No. 2 gun can only last for no more than 3 hours at most, and even if it is poured water on the barrel to dissipate heat, it can only be maintained for an additional half an hour, otherwise it will face a 60% chance of exploding.

Of course, the most important reason for the ceasefire of the rear battleships is that the accuracy of the No. 2 gun is not very good, not to mention that this artillery bombardment hits friendly forces, if it accidentally hits the ammunition compartment of the battleship, it will be "fun".

"Launch!"

"Boom Boom .........Boom" has to admit that in the King Continent where architecture has not developed to the original world, even those tall city walls are not thick enough, they are just paper paste for artillery, especially No. 2 artillery, not to mention those so-called watchtowers and arrow towers, their range is not enough at all.

And as the controller of the Hawker assault ship, the Umba Pirates. Although the military style of these criminals from the southern continent has always been a headache in the army where the sun never sets, at least their loyalty is 100%. And the ruthlessness honed in the battle of the orc warriors is no less than the Xiyi people and the people who never set the sun with a sense of aggression in their bones, and the most important thing is that they are a group of kings who control light warships.

You must know that although the city defense system of the Holy Light Port located in the port area has been severely destroyed, and the Naga warriors are about to occupy the port area even at this moment, although the Holy Light Port is a port, does he really only have the port area? Ordinary small fishing villages and ports are divided into a residential, trade, and port area, not to mention the port of Saint-Light, which is larger than the average megacity.

So now. In fact, the defenders of Port Sainte-Light had already established a defensive line in the trade zone behind the port area, relying on the lighthouse of dawn in the salient, and moreover. Countless catapults were also erected on this line of defense in the rear to fight back, although they couldn't hit the medium and heavy warships in the distance, but they could still hit the Naga warriors in the port area and the light warships near the dock, but could this really hit?

All right. Perhaps some of the hapless Naga warriors will be injured by the flying rubble. But it's really hard to say about light warships, because as I said before, the Amba pirates are the kings of light warships, and the huge coastline and inner harbor area of Shengguang Harbor have long become the stage for these pirates composed of people of all ethnic groups in the southern continent.

Of course, the Amba pirates were not omnipotent, and perhaps they had a study of how the fleet's artillery should be fired alternately. But for the operation of artillery, in fact, their level is not comparable to that of a qualified gunner who never sets. That is to say, in the eyes of the Amba pirates, as long as the cannonball is knocked out, it is not known where it will fall - it is no wonder, after all, light warships are mainly used for pursuit, and they are more suitable for broadside combat than long-range strikes, and the light battleship that does not set the sun is called an assault ship only because it has a fast straight-line sailing speed and a larger carrying capacity than ordinary light warships, and can be used as a quick way to put troops on the beach, so it is called an assault ship. The operator itself does not need to study the long-range equipment inside the battleship very deeply.

So the two sides are formed, your defenders of the Holy Light Harbor can't beat the battleships of the side where the sun never sets, and the warships of the side that the sun does not set can't hit the city defense equipment in your Holy Light Harbor now, but that's it, in fact, the Holy Light Harbor side is still at a disadvantage, and even if the Naga warriors retreat into the sea over time, it is still the Holy Light Harbor side that loses.

For what? First of all, it must be clear that the sun never sets does not come to invade, the sun does not set the navy has no such idea and its troops do not have this ability, the only purpose of the sun never sets to come to the Holy Light Harbor is to destroy, and this is also the reason why the three sunset fleets appeared in the middle of the Central Continent - the sun never sets navy should do its best to cut off the logistics of the two countries when the griffon empire and the holy light empire have not reacted, so that the troops of the two countries fighting on the front line will fall into the dilemma of lack of supplies.

Whether it is the stones used to siege the city, or the arrows of the archers, or the food of the soldiers, the soldiers of the two countries rely on these cross-sea supply lines, without which they will not be able to attack the city, and they will have no morale, and this situation will definitely happen in a short time - because the number of troops invested in the front line by the two countries is currently more than one million, and the daily consumption of these million people will be astronomical.

Then these soldiers will be alone, and if the sun does not set, even if they are consumed by them, as long as they cannot build and re-establish the supply line within two months, then these million soldiers will either be wiped out by the riot or starved to death. Therefore, Sun Lin's task to the Sun Never Set Navy was to cut off the supply lines and use all means to prevent the rear of the two countries from sending all supplies to the front line within 3 months.

So now for the sun not to set, as long as the Naga warriors hold the port area for 3 hours, then then as long as the Greek fire is borrowed to burn the port of the Holy Light, then it is completed, as for what to defend for 3 hours, the first point is because those Hawk assault ships - for what Hawk assault ships have to advance to a very close distance from the dock, that is because they have to test the reaction of the defenders, test the reaction of these defenders after the Naga invade the port area, if the reaction is fierce, Then it was necessary to let the Ambar pirates land by brute force and bring all the Greek fire in the ship's hold ashore.

And if the reaction is not violent, then you can try to continue to trick the other party into thinking that the sun never sets is to occupy this place, so that the defenders can shift their attention to the rear to establish a defensive line, then then the Amba pirates can land and bring the Greek fire ashore with a great reduction in danger, and at that time, as long as the rear warships "cooperate" to move forward, then the defenders of the Holy Light Harbor will think: "The Sun Never Sets Empire is here to occupy the Holy Light Harbor, We can hold back the enemy at the second line of defense that has already been built, and delay the arrival of reinforcements. ”

And now, the development of things is currently moving forward according to the assumption of the sun never setting, and even a variable that appeared before was taken away by the chaos of the sun never setting spies, although it is said that the variable seems to be coming back, but the time for the implementation of the plan has begun to count down, and the Naga warriors on the shore are also preparing for the ignition, thinking that even if the variable appears, it will not be able to prevent the sunset empire from burning the Holy Light Harbor.

At this time, in the hall of the city hall of the Maple Leaf residential area behind the port of Shengguang..........

"Master, look at the city lord's reactivation of the demoted Chris's Legion Commander, will he ........." Outside the city council hall, an oily-faced middle-aged man in heavy armor asked a man with a yellow and thin face but a gray robe, the man with a shiny face in front of him was the commander of the 3rd Garrison of the Holy Light Port that had been strongly opposed to Chris's proposal to rescue the port area, and he was also a big celebrity beside the previous city lord.

This legion commander was originally just a small officer, and he was not well-known in the army, but I don't know what to do since the year before, this guy is like being blessed by the God of Light, and the rumors in the army have risen, and this is not the end, after mixing with the corps commander last year, this guy also extended his hand to the security of the Holy Light Harbor, which should have been caught by others, but the problem is that this guy actually did better than the sheriff, and many people found behind him that many large chambers of commerce were supporting him, In this case, whether it is the bright side or the dark side, people can only support him, which leads to the fact that this guy can be said to be getting better and better, so that he can't fight with him at all, even if it's the city lord - everyone is doing good deeds, what do you mean by sanctioning him? Treason?

So this guy has become a celebrity around the city lord, and the reason why he was able to get Chris down this time is also because of the deterrence he has gained from his hard work in the past two years, but maybe many people, even the city lord of Shengguanggang don't know the way, this guy got such an achievement because of the black-robed man next to him, of course, even if someone knows the way, what can he do? The black-robed man's background was very clean in the information obtained by everyone, and the things he had planned were all beneficial and harmless to the Holy Light Harbor, except for the fact that the legion leader climbed to his current position.

"It's okay, even if that guy Chris comes back, he can't change the situation we've made now, as long as you follow my plan, then this guy will only be your subordinate, and then he will only be at your disposal in terms of military affairs, Lord Brown, but for the sake of safety, you still have to be more careful not to be caught by it, of course, if you really can't get something done, you can apply to go out and rest and come to me, and I will help you get a way to deal with it."

"Then Xie Lu Xie Master you, as long as I survive this time, then it is inevitable that I will become the deputy city lord, and I will definitely not forget your great kindness and great virtue Master at that time."

"Then I'll thank the deputy city lord first, then I'll go to the side and wait for your good news first." With that, the black-robed man walked behind Captain Brown, and at the same time, Captain Chris and Ruby also appeared behind the black-robed man, at another corner of the corridor.
