Chapter 274: Sinking the Warship


A dark shadow swept through the sky, and Winnie landed steadily on the deck of the King.Once on the ground, she retracted her wings, lifted her goggles, and looked around for her target.Finding that Owen and Viscount Jarvis were talking not far away, Winnie hurried over to report."

Report!

Report to the Lord!

There is a city in front of it, and there are four warships docked at the docks on the outskirts of the city!

”The royal capital and the golden acropolis were originally a combined fleet with more than a dozen warships.However, in the past year, there have been a number of water battles with the South, and both sides have suffered heavy losses, leaving White with only these four warships to call on."

yes, got it."

Owen nodded in acknowledgment of Winnie's contribution, "Well done, thank you." ”"Hey, it's not hard!"

Winnie replied with joy."

There's the Golden Acropolis ahead."

Viscount Jarvis stroked his beard, and a sharp light flashed in his remaining right eye."

The warship is still docked at the edge of the dock, which means that the other side has not received the news of the westward movement of the Dawn City fleet, which is a good opportunity."

The cement steamship that followed the King was sailing at almost full speed, and it was moving day and night, and the water city was pinned down by the subhuman troops, so it was normal that the Golden Acropolis had not received the news.In the final analysis, White was still big-hearted, thinking that with Linshui City as an outpost to report the news, he could sit back and relax in the rear.If he asked the Golden Acropolis to also send soldiers to the east to reconnoitre, such a huge fleet of Dawn City would not be able to hide, and he would definitely be able to find out in advance and report back in time."

It's a great opportunity."

Owen agreed with what Viscount Jarvis said.Then, he ordered Winnie, "Winnie, the troops led by Rusha are on standby near the confluence of the border between the Wenshui River and the Mysterious Forest, please fly over and inform him that he can start the operation." ”"Understood!"

Winnie patted her chest, "Don't worry, leave it to me!"

”With that, she took a few steps back, put on her goggles again, flapped her wings into the air, and flew northwest.After Winnie flew away, Owen ordered the King to speed up at full speed and prepare for a surprise attack on the docks of the Golden Acropolis.The speed of the steel battleship increased sharply, and soon distanced itself from the cement steamship behind it, and charged towards the Golden Acropolis alone.Then, Owen called the commander of the artillery battalion, Blue, over.After the expansion, the KPA had formed a separate artillery battalion, and Blue was naturally promoted to battalion commander."

My lord, what do you command?"

Blue asked after saluting."

It's time to fire the first shot of the King's to the enemy."

Owen gave the order, "Blue, I order you to select the best skilled artillerymen in the artillery battalion to stand guard on the gun emplacements and prepare to open fire. ”"Yes!"

Blue immediately took the order to retreat.The howitzer shells that were reluctant to be used against the undead monsters last winter can now be used freely.Compared to live shells, howitzer shells explode when they hit a target, have a larger range of action, and can easily sink a wooden ship with a single shell if the technology is good enough.On the dock on the outskirts of the Golden Acropolis, there are many people who are busy greening, but they don't know that war is coming."

Look!

What is that?

”Someone noticed something strange on the east side of the Ulshui River."

Shhh"Iron ......

Iron Ship!

That's an iron ship!

”"How is this possible?!

Iron is so heavy that it is impossible to float on water. ”The unknown crowd soon gathered and pointed at the steel battleship.On the battleship, Owen used his binoculars to see that there were many people on the dock, and said with some concern: "The target is those four warships, be accurate, and try not to affect the civilian population." ”"Rest assured!

Your Lordship. ”The artilleryman, who was adjusting the direction of the muzzle, confidently replied: "My aiming skills are the first in the artillery battalion, and I will never miss!"

”Boom!

With a roar that resounded through the sky, a cannonball landed precisely on the deck of a warship, followed by a huge explosion, and a large cloud of flames and black smoke rose into the air.With just one shot, a large hole was blown out of one side of the warship, and the river poured into it, tilting its hull and slowly sinking into the river."

Run!""

There's a war!"

Frightened, the people gathered on the dock scattered in all directions, turned around and fled desperately into the city.The first shot fired by the Iron Battleship did not cause any civilian casualties.In addition to the accuracy of artillery, there is another reason, that is, warships, as an important tool for water warfare, are never allowed to civilians to approach at will when docking.The bombed warship was still some distance from the people, so the explosion just now did not affect them.The King fired three more shells in quick succession, sinking all three remaining ships, and then continued westward, not far from the Golden Acropolis.It didn't take long for more than ten cement steamships to drive over and go straight to the royal capital Junhui City.At the same time, the lord of the Golden Acropolis, Count Joy, had just received a notification from the docks."

What?!"

His eyes widened in shock, "You said a huge iron ship just launched an attack on the docks?"

”"Yes."

The soldier who was on one knee in front of him replied, "The iron ship is now heading in the direction of the royal capital. ”The royal capital?

Suddenly remembering something, Count Joy slapped his thigh sharply."

Oops!

It must be the warship of Dawn City, gather the knights, soldiers, and magicians and take the warship to pursue them!

”"This ......," the soldier grimaced, "Back to the Earl, all four ships docked at the dock have been sunk. ”"What?!"

Earl Joy panicked and couldn't make up his mind."

This ......

This......

What should I do?

”"Don't panic, Lord Count."

A knight took the initiative to stand up, "Since there is no warship, then we should send someone to light the beacon fire, raise the wolf smoke, notify the enemy of the royal capital, and then gather troops and quickly go to support the royal capital." ”As the guardian city of the royal capital, the original role of the Golden Acropolis was to guard against the danger from the Mysterious Forest, especially the Black Dragon King.Therefore, the Golden Acropolis built a beacon tower for transmitting the news of the enemy attack."

Yes, that's right!"

Count Joy pointed to the soldiers in front of him and ordered: "Go to the beacon and raise the wolf smoke, quick!"

”"Yes!"

The soldier hurriedly retreated.Then Count Joy turned to the knight who had just made the suggestion, and said, "I will leave it to you to assemble the troops." ”"Yes, Lord Count."

The knight retreated.Why did the ships of Dawn suddenly appear on the docks of the Golden Acropolis?

Earl Joy is only starting to think about this now, after all, the other party is coming too quickly, and this side is completely unprepared.That's right!

Why didn't Linshui City send someone to report the news?

Damn it!

It's all the fault of the Earl of Munster!

Putting all the blame on the Earl of Munster in Waterfront City, Count Joy felt better, and if His Majesty blamed him in the future, he would say that it was Count Munster's fault.Unbeknownst to Earl Joy, in his subconscious, he felt that it was impossible for the army of Auroville to capture the royal capital.It's normal to have this thought, after all, the bluestone walls of the royal capital are high and strong, and no one has ever broken through them from the outside in history.The troops were assembled at the West City Gate, and Count Joy put on his ancestral armor and rode a sturdy warhorse.Just as he was about to lead this force to support the royal capital, a scout hurriedly ran over."

Report!

Lord Earl, to the north, there is a force of lizardmen to the north!

”"What?!"

Earl Joy was shocked, this was too bad to happen.This lord is backed by a tech tycoon
