Chapter 210: Encounter

Due to the end of the war in the Northwest Continent, the security of various regions has been stable and all have entered a virtuous circle, and the treasury that never sets has begun to make profits again, plus the smashed Northwest Continent needs some time to recuperate, so Sun Lin took advantage of the events that occurred in the West Continent, without deducting the combat effectiveness of the Northwest Fleet and the North Sea Fleet, to take the flagship specially designed for himself - the Royal Victory and converge all the newly produced combat ships in the 4 sea territories of the New Delhi Peninsula, the Sardinian Territory, the Herakon Territory and the Rhodes Island Territory, It joined the huge transport fleet carrying 30,000 sunset troops in the waters of the northwest continent and the sea area of the western continent at an outpost port, and also carried out a preliminary statistics of the soldiers who participated in the battle.

Because the enemy against this time is the Xiyi people with the spirit of bushido, so the seafarers who participated in the war are all elite in the army, and their captains are also graduates from the Crescent Harbor Naval Academy, with guild knowledge and can determine the direction without a compass, relying on the starry sky and other factors, can be calm in the face of the storm, and can exert the ruthlessness of the Vikings in the face of those Xiyi warriors. The Norwegian Danes, who had Viking blood with Northern Europe, and now the Royal Victory, except for the generals and captains who are English, the rest of the first mate and so on are all proficient in seafaring.

There are as many as 6,000 seafarers participating in the battle this time, and in the water, there are also the newly established Naga Foreign 2nd Regiment, the 3rd, 4th, and 7th Fish-Man Sword and Shield Regiments and the 1st Fish-Man Sea Area Reconnaissance Regiment, a total of about 40,000 sea warriors, and among the 30,000 army troops who participated in the landing on the island, there are 10,000 heavily armed swordsmen, and the rest of the Yoman longbowmen and giant shield crossbowmen also have 10,000 each, but unlike the heavy swordsmen and Yoman longbowmen who stay in the transport ship, the giant shield crossbowmen except for a part of the transport ship are left behind. After removing the tower shield behind you that is not suitable for naval warfare, replacing it with a smaller tower shield or round shield, it is assigned to the battleship in a team of 40 people to enhance the battleship's long-range capabilities.

The fleet then rested on the outpost island for four days before continuing its departure, not because of the loading and unloading of weapons and ammunition, but because the weapons and ammunition of the warships were already in a state of full armory, and as for the food for sepsis such as vegetables and fruits, or fresh water, it was even more impossible, because these food and water were loaded and unloaded as early as the first day. The reason for this is that some heavily armed swordsmen recruited from the interior of the Lancester Territory and with Lancet nationality were seasick, so that the fleet was forced to postpone the voyage, Sun Lin did not say anything about it, because there was no way to do this kind of thing, and Sun Lin would not reprimand those Lancester soldiers for such a thing, which would chill the hearts of the soldiers.

Four days later, that is, when the time had reached the end of March, the fleet of the expedition against the Xiyi set sail again, although the route was longer than the previous journey from Sardinia to the outpost, but the Lanster soldiers had nothing to do except that their complexion was still a little pale, it seemed that the Lanster had overcome the turbulence of the sea, but at this time the supreme commander of the fleet, Sun Lin himself, fell into boredom.

It's really boring, maybe it's God's favor, maybe it's the blessing of death (no way, who called Sun Lin this girl to get benefits from death?) The weather at sea has been exceptionally clear these days, and there is not even half a cloud in the sky, and things like naval battles at the beginning Sun Lin still wanted to make peace, and wanted to get an outstanding admiral back after getting excellent siege generals, excellent offensive generals, and excellent ambush generals, but unfortunately, after the first few days of study, Sun Lin very firmly gave up the nautical chart that made him look big at first sight, and told himself that he could get the attributes of admirals by learning from naval battles anyway, so why bother to put his mind on the nautical chart?

Although Sun Lin wanted to call a few guards to come over and fight the landlords together, after finding that these guards could not recognize the Arabic numerals 1 to 10, Sun Lin gave up his plans and decided that he must complete the task of cultural literacy after completing the unification of the Northwest Continent. Of course, this great determination can't cover up Sun Lin's chaotic performance in the past two weeks or so.

Perhaps it was the Grim Reaper who took care of Sun Lin again, and when the sailing time was about to reach 3 weeks, Sun Lin finally met a reconnaissance team of the Xiyi people, and Sun Lin was absolutely sure that the other party only had 3 bows and 1 thousand stone ship, and let the sailors of the Royal Victory raise the battle flag, and then ......

"Give Lao Tzu a beating! It's been rusty on the ship for dozens of days, and there's no room for Leo to fight on the ship, so you must get a katana back today! "Because the time of the battle is clear, there is still some fog on the sea, and the Xiyi people have not invented the telescope, so at this time, in the eyes of more than two hundred Xiyi people, there is no shadow of a huge fleet in the distance, and there is a gradually larger ship shadow. In this regard, after the four Xiyi warships paused on the sea for a while, they raised their battle flags and moved towards the crew, because they had already seen the conspicuous 3 golden lion red flags of the Sunset Empire in the fog.

For the gradually growing shadow of the ship, the Xiyi people did not retreat backwards as Sun Lin imagined, but accelerated the speed of the oars to move forward, and Sun Lin also saw through the telescope that on the Xiyi warship, especially on the thousand-stone ship, there were successively some Xiyi people holding katanas and wearing samurai armor from the cabin to the front of the deck, and there were also a few ashigaru holding hooks and ropes in the front, according to the Xiyi people, standing at the bow of the ship like ronins.

"It seems that the Xiyi people have also known that the sun never sets, and the navy is not good at broadside battles............ The courage is commendable, daring to attack the Royal Victory with a small boat, and knowing that only the battle on the side has a chance of victory, but it underestimates the naval combat ability of the Xiyi people, but it is ......... Can it really catch the Royal Victory's fire? Sun Lin muttered with a smile.

At the same time, the captain of the Royal Victory also shouted: "Turn 40 degrees to the left, downwind, retract the full sail and half sail, start firing freely on the right side, and the giant crossbow defending the city will give priority to hitting the fastest thousand-stone ship of the Xiyi people!" ”

Under the busy work of the sailors, the bloated sound of the Royal Victory began to turn to the left, and the giant crossbow that had been aimed at the bow of the city was turning at the same time, and shot the giant javelin at the Xiyi people's thousand-stone ship, but unfortunately the speed of the thousand-stone ship was too fast, so this giant javelin only stirred up a water column more than 4 meters high behind the thousand-stone ship, but it also attracted the attention of the Xiyi people.
