Anxiety of Chapter 504 Captain Ford Luis
When distant place roll of thunder, it is said that is the Norton Family North Sea Fleet launch artillery sound.
Captain Ford Luis raises up the ear to listen to shouting and wrangling that all around the ships are transmitting, is repressing panic-stricken and uneasy of innermost feelings, until him discovered that the ships anything unusual circumstance when all around, has not been maintaining as before the good order and formation navigate forward, he slowly has put the heart.
As the captain who carries 100,000 jin (0.5 kg) large-scale armed forces merchants, the Ford Luis's only pride is under the foot song of the named merpeople merchant. From his grandfather to his father, arrives at him again, three generations of made his family have one to be their large-scale armed forces merchants in marine striving for success and sacrifice finally completely. To Captain Ford Luis, in the sea, on the song of merpeople, he is only King and Lord(s).
As the owner of song of merpeople, Captain Ford Luis does not dare to disobey and resist the order of Chickadee Chamber of Commerce. When he receives the order to request him to join a large-scale fleet that Chickadee Chamber of Commerce forms is Trade Union ships a number of commodities arrive at Hidegold Bay, he does not dare to express the objection, must know Chickadee Chamber of Commerce perhaps, but the overlord of south sea area, offended the songs of their merpeople to be unable to take a single step forward in the sea.
As three generations the voyager who seeks a livelihood in the sea, Captain Ford Luis naturally has his personal connection and source of information. He knew in the tavern quickly why Chickadee Chamber of Commerce must organize the reason of such big transportation fleet. It is said the Trade Union invincible Armada and Northern Land Norton Family North Sea Fleet made war, the invincible Armada suffered a loss probably, including Aiji Bar Harbor by a North Sea Fleet fire firing ashes.
It is said when winter these accepted the transportation commodity to fall into the hand of Norton Family fleet to the majority of ships of Hidegold Bay request, for example Emma, the dragonfly number, Moullin Morde person number these and song of same large-scale armed forces merchants flying fish were held under duress. Moreover the Norton Family North Sea Fleet also has one type in dwarf artillery fiercer the Bronze artillery compared with the legend, the long-distance attack unmatched in the world, hits ship one dozen of anything......
Reason that Chickadee Chamber of Commerce an organization such big transportation fleet to avoid the loss of commodity, everyone knows that Trade Union and Andinak Kingdom are carrying on a brutal bloody battle in Falik Plains, in looks that these that the marine information quick these crew and sailors very much pity in the south recruited soldier(s) through the sea route transportation arrive at Hidegold Bay, was filled in Falik Plains this bottomless flesh and blood big hole.
To Trade Union, the sea route is it now maintains the front war the lifeline, therefore forms a scale huge transportation fleet and makes the minute of fleet of two invincible Armada escort is the natural proper business, then relieves the threat of Norton Family North Sea Fleet marine interception, is the voyager who lets these intention anxieties has a look, although the invincible Armada in suffered certain loss with the confrontation of North Sea Fleet, but the invincible Armada is still control of south sea area.
Captain Ford Luis is such anxiety, he had suspected this range like the officials of invincible Armada declared is not only a leisurely and carefree journey, on the contrary has been full of the danger. Very simple, originally before fleet embarks to start that evening, the Norton Family North Sea Fleet suddenly appeared outside the harbor started the night assault once more.
Captain Ford Luis rejoices song of number his merpeople as the large-scale open sea armed forces merchant, because the freight capacity big relations were arranged the innermost in harbor, but is not likely these bad luck medium goods marine railways in most surrounding. That evening's flame soars to the heavens, boom. If not for invincible Armada the rapidness of these small fast hit battleship responses, first hurry to the rescue, perhaps that night the invincible Armada can also encounter Aiji Bar Harbor fire.
Noise that flame soars to the heavens night Captain Ford Luis has a vivid memory. Because the invincible Armada this night assault has to postpone seven talents. Although the fleet high level got down banned the word command, did not permit the crew and sailor of fleet discusses this night assault, in the crew and sailor mouth that but Captain Ford Luis these marine slippery customers these got drunk through the tavern in knew that night assault let Trade Union and invincible Armada loses seriously. Trade Union lost more than 50 platoons in the surrounding is fully laden with the medium shipping of commodity, the invincible Armada lost 20 large and middle scale armed forces battleships and more than 30 small fast hit battleships, but enemy actually sends swaggering away of non- wound.
Perhaps is the commanders sentiment of invincible Armada Norton Family fleet night assault unexpectedly makes these be insufferably arrogant finally woke, seven days later before embarking, Captain Ford Luis has attained the grouping arrangement and range plan, very surprised discovery transportation fleet does not navigate in the traditional sea route, but goes to Hidegold Bay along the coastline.
Along the coastline navigation is not, but actually lengthened the entire range. If navigates in the sea route, then 21 days can arrive in Hidegold Bay. May navigate along the coastline, then at least takes one month or more than 40 days can arrive. After all in the coastlines has a big section is the iron Dagnini mountain range, that coast does not have any harbor, landing point that only then several come ashore to fetch water temporarily.
Big fleet that more than 1000 big , middle and small merchants and battleships compose, in the Grindia Continent history is unprecedented, does behind have the future not to know. Almost all people think that the fleet along the sea route enormous and powerful navigation, the white sail will obstruct the day, momentum illustrious, this is one publicizes journey of the invincible Armada dignified parade. What has not thought that the invincible Armada has adopted unexpectedly along the plan of coastline navigation, this is really is startled the big tooth.
Captain Ford Luis these marine slippery customers thinks actually the commanders of invincible Armada are very wise, navigated the biggest advantage to avoid both sides receiving the enemy along the coastline, so long as the invincible Armada protected the surrounding to be OK. The enemy is impossible to insert the middle of coastline and transportation fleet launches the attack, such words do not need the battleship of invincible Armada to go into action, the casual several merchants clamp the battleship of enemy not to reach a deadlock are stranded, because it does not have the leeway of swivel.
The traditional sea route can indeed speed up the range time-saving, but faces the attack that the raider can launch in all directions similarly, to the invincible Armada of defense, the transportation fleet continuous more than ten nautical miles is so long, wants to protect completely is truly difficult. A night assault allows the commanders of invincible Armada to understand fierce of enemy North Sea Fleet finally, although has several battleships, may the threat to the transportation fleet not compare one to divide fleet small many......
How now two of invincible Armada does not defeat the Norton Family North Sea Fleet that divides the fleet to think, but how to give complete escorting the transportation fleet to Hidegold Bay. Because on that more than 800 transport ships loads basically is all military cargos and grain and fodder that the south seven provinces plunder, recruit who 100,000 were forced to recruit. To Trade Union, these commodity grain and fodder and recruits are ensure whether Trade Union can defeat the Andinak Kingdom key, is this bloody battle most important safeguard whether to win.
Navigates along the coastline, the two fleets of invincible Armada, the Chickadee Chamber of Commerce armed forces fleet has not needed to group with the transportation fleet together. Transportation fleet in inside, fleet of escort in surrounding, then the Norton Family North Sea Fleet launches the attack the words to open an opening once more to attack inside transportation fleet in the convoy fleet defense circle of surrounding first. Simultaneously the biggest advantage accidentally the transportation fleet encounters the words that the attack has lost, then could not insist the shipping that can clash Shanghai, preserves the commodity and reinforcements of its transportation, but does not look like in the sea route can only helplessly downward sinks......
„This was third time suffers to attack......” Captain Ford Luis to listen to distant place that rumble crackle of gunfire anxious thought this point.
Along coastline navigation, although was safe, but the speed was also too slow. Under water has in the undercurrent sea level to have the freedom in the traditional sea route, but near the seacoast is very difficult such convenient navigation condition. Cannot look at the side transportation fleet speed slow shape snail, departs the half coastlines of 21 days of actually noise-maker Dagnini mountain ranges not to pass, instead welcomed the third attack of Norton Family North Sea Fleet.
Departs 14 th day, the fleet has encountered the fleet attack of enemy again, is 14 can launch the battleship of artillery as before, they have launched for two days with the invincible Armada and Chickadee Chamber of Commerce of escort armed forces fleet three nights of engaging in fierce battle. Finally should polish the ammunition to swagger away once more, but the invincible Armada and Chickadee Chamber of Commerce of escort armed forces fleet altogether lost about 70 small fast hit battleships and medium armed forces battleships, seven large-scale armed forces battleships......
In Captain Ford Luis the song of number of merpeople assigned the crew and sailors of more than ten invincible Armada, in name said that strengthens the guard of shipping, in fact these crew and sailors were these are attacked and sunk wrecking on the battleship to save by the Norton Family fleet, because the battleship did not have is arranged to come up to the transport ship.
Has only spent two days of time, Captain Ford Luis mixed with the crew and sailors of these invincible Armada ripe. After delicious tasty entertainment, from their mouths, Captain Ford Luis obtained the detailed theater intelligence quickly.
„ The commander of that North Sea Fleet very sly, although his subordinates have several battleships, but he never carries on the close combat with us, always we launches the artillery in 300 meters extroversion, when we approach they hoist the sails to escape to spread out. We are unable to pursue too tightly, because we cannot be separated from the team, will otherwise be directed then strongly to bomb by them our battleships attacking and sinking.
Our commanders set up several traps, even using the transportation fleet, intentionally has also shown flaw in the defense circle, hopes that can tempt the fleet of enemy to attack these shipping, then surrounded to close up with the enemy carries on the close combat to eliminate the enemy. But the fleet commander of enemy had not been swindled, as if to front transportation fleet regards, if has not seen general, considers is only looking for the trouble of our convoy fleet.
Moreover the fire of enemy very fierce, the firing distance is ultra, is distanced the iron projectiles of more than 300 meters launches to have the lip to be so big, I serve on the sepia number large-scale armed forces battleship, at that time our ships flushed is not quick, the middle is also separated by three small fast hit battleship and a medium armed forces battleship. The four battleships of enemy launch the artillery to us together, a that meeting fever the fiery red iron projectile penetrated several centimeters thick ship wall to pound in the deck directly the plate becomes one group of cables, has burnt then, the fire burnt on the ship's sail following the cable, was quick our battleships to burn looks like the root torch, rescued unable to rescue...... ”
This boatswain who called Shirra drank is a little drunk, was recounting the bitter experience of battleship while was publicizing the great strength of enemy. Also luckily he now on song of merpeople merchant, if also in the invincible Armada that side this meeting should be bundled on the mast suffers the whip.
However Ford Luis knows what he said is the truth, in the deck rises and falls the cable of ship's sail, for the permanent lubrication and durable has wiped the butter in order to avoid by the seawater corrosion. This gadget most fears the fire, generally some time people of naval battle bitter experience fire attack specially nurse, with the aim of putting off the flame immediately. The sepia number and enemy great distance are so far, very possible not to have thought of this point, therefore tragedy.
„Can't our invincible Armada that many battleships eliminate these several Norton Family warships? Even if they have the artillery of very-long-range, but our battleships are many, closing in makes them hit unable to hit......” Captain Ford Luis to ask.
Shirra boatswain has hit liquor belch: „ You, you do not know that the battleship of enemy was really too skidding, use of their battleships in the serviceability and sail were higher than many superiority compared with all our battleships, even the speed was also faster than us. If we pursue them to tempt us to leave the sunlight sea area to enter the deep sea, then eliminates our battleships there. The previous more than 20 battleships pursued the result to come back three.
Our small fast hit battleship can pose very big threat to them, on, the previous night assault is also the small fast hit battleship gives to drive out them. But they cope now small hit the method of battleship too to be also flagitious fast. I told you iron projectile of their launching system to have the lip to be so big, but, but their one type was smaller, projectile that the iron bead of many finger size composed, an artillery was about hundred, one dozen of big pieces.
Before they hit the small fast hit battleship with the lip big iron projectile, ten times had 67 times not to hit. But they changed to that iron shot now . Moreover the to ignore small fast hit battleship approaches them. When 50-60 meters distance, their artillery hits on the small fast hit battleship is almost a piece of flesh and blood flying in all directions, does not die on the wound, basic on few survivors, that simply is the nightmare general scene. ”
Result of Captain Ford Luis's from that day this navigation on the anxiety got up, do not look at the invincible Armada and Chickadee Chamber of Commerce armed forces fleet also 400-500 battleships, but if the Norton Family North Sea Fleet has harassed does not know finally arrived at Hidegold Bay also many battleships. If, if invincible Armada if were eliminated, what to do these are fully laden with the merchant of commodity should? Continues to go forward turns head to run away?
From the consideration of innermost feelings, Captain Ford Luis favors turning around to run away, Trade Union and Andinak Kingdom war closes his anything matter, preserves the only merchant of oneself family is most important. But Trade Union now occupied the seven important harbors on Gold coastline, even including Jigda Kingdom is its ally, if runs away Trade Union to blame that and ship cannot run away as before......
Is separated by for 21 days the first night assault to the second attack, but now the third attack and second attack have only been separated by for seven days, had the senior captain very easy estimate of marine sailing a boat rich experience the enemy definitely to have a supplies base like Ford Luis in front or has prepared the formidable fleet preparation to the transportation fleet implementation interception. Perhaps a scale huge marine decisive battle was waiting for invincible Armada, whom they will come out with the Norton Family fleet are the genuine marine overlords.
Who is marine overlord Captain Ford Luis does not care, in any case he is only an independent merchant captain, so long as honest pays the fee to obtain the permission that the navigation peddler to the victor on the line. Is listening to the distant place rumble bombing sound, Captain Ford Luis traces oneself bosom is holding that white flaxen cloth melancholily, if the invincible Armada defeats that he to prepare first this plain white cloth hanging up the mast, he rather surrenders is not willing by his merchant by the fire attacking and sinking......
