After ten minutes...
When the Pirate Fleet approached within 5 nautical miles of the G1 branch, on the other side, the East China Sea Fleet led by Li Yan finally appeared.
A super warship and a lineup of five large warships are rapidly approaching from the side.
"This speed is almost double that of a standard warship, right?"
"As Kizaru said, this new warship doesn't even have sails!"
"And, if I'm not mistaken, that super warship should belong to Taotu, why doesn't it have sails?"
Looking at the six warships that had no sails, but very fast speed, Aokiji couldn't help asking.
"Yes, Admiral Aokiji, the limit of this new type of warship can reach 15 knots, far exceeding the speed of seven or eight knots of naval standard warships!"
hiss...
This is really double the speed.
"What about the Peach Rabbit?"
"The warship of Lieutenant General Taotu was also sent to the East China Sea Branch of Carrera for modification!"
"Is that so..."
Nodding slightly, Aokiji said, and at the same time began to plan in his mind, after this battle is over, will he also send the warship to refit.
You must know that the sailing ships of the Navy only have a speed of a little more than seven knots, and only a little over ten kilometers per hour. Don't you think that the speed of the warships is too slow, so you often ride a bicycle?
If a warship can reach a speed of 15 knots, wouldn't it be fragrant to ride a scooter, swing a reclining chair on the deck, and then bask in the sun?
------
Finally, after more than half an hour again...
The Pirate Fleet is finally approaching within 500 of the G1 branch.
"Ice Age!"
On the outer wall, the green pheasant suddenly jumped forward and fell to the bottom. Then, with a low voice, the big move was suddenly launched.
After more than ten seconds, the sea surface thousands of meters in front of the branch was already frozen, and those pirate ships were naturally trapped there, unable to move.
"Li Yan is still a little far away, so let's go and drag Kuzan and I for a while!"
Looking at the East China Sea Fleet, there is still about 5 or 6 kilometers of distance, Akainu said, and immediately prepared to take the lieutenant generals out.
"General, please wait, they are already within the range of the East China Sea Fleet."
"What, this can't be..."
Hearing Noqigao's words, Akainu instinctively wanted to refute, but before he finished speaking, he saw...
A flash of fire flashed on the five warships of the East China Sea Fleet.
Obviously, those warships fired!
"How is that possible... This is at least 5 kilometers away!"
"General, although the distance of more than five kilometers cannot achieve accurate strikes, there is absolutely no problem with the range-covering artillery fire!"
Just when Nuoqigao said these words, dozens of shells had already fallen.
"Boom boom boom boom boom..."
This scene, whether it was the red dog or the green pheasant, or the tens of thousands of sea soldiers on the outer wall of the branch, were all stunned.
Maybe it wasn't very accurate, but it was clear that the landing points of all the shells were controlled within a small range.
Even...
A pirate ship was directly hit immediately, and even a group of pirates immediately exploded into the sky.
They didn't give these pirates a chance to react at all. Five kilometers away, the second round of salvos began.
And then the third round...
Fourth round...
After ten minutes, everyone was paralyzed.
Nearly 30 rounds of artillery bombardment blew up the entire area where the pirate fleet was located. Even the ice layer with a thickness of at least ten meters made by Qingzhi in the Ice Age was about to be unable to hold on.
As for the pirates who are being continuously bombarded...
Well, the black smoke is too thick to see at all.
However, Aokiji Akainu and those lieutenant generals can all be seen and heard. Although they can't see it with the naked eye, they can sense that the pirates among them are at least 80% dead.
"This power..."
"This range..."
Even Akainu had a look of shock in his eyes at this moment.
"General, Li Yan said, caliber is justice, range is truth!"
"Caliber is justice? Range is truth? Okay, okay, I like this, I like this warship even more. When this matter is over, I will suggest to the Warring States Marshal that this new type of warship should be fully refurbished for the headquarters of the Navy!"
"General, Li Yan also said that after all, the East China Sea is not as dangerous as the New World. If the general needs it, the five warships that have just been commissioned can also be transferred to the G1 branch at that time, as long as the cost is sufficient. After all, if it is new, the time Not short."
"Well, your lieutenant general is very good!"
Hearing Nuoqigao's words, Akainu praised him without hesitation.
To know...
Akainu generally don't praise people!
However, when he was excited, he didn't notice the strange expression on Nuoqigao's face...
Before Li Yan asked Nuoqi to come over, he had told her.
After you passed this time, one was to persuade the two generals to cooperate with us, and the other was to, um, sell warships!
That's right, it's a sales promotion, and even these five ships of the East China Sea Fleet can be sold.
After all, the East China Sea is about to enter the era of ironclad ships. Why should such a backward wooden warship be kept?
Why don't you sell it while it's worth some money?
Therefore, Nuoqigao will always serve as the side of Akainu...
Explain the performance of warships!
"The task assigned by the lieutenant general..."
"Is this done by yourself?"
Seeing the excitement on Akainu's face, Nuo Qigao couldn't help but think so in his heart.
------
The violent shelling lasted for an hour, until each warship had fired a basic shell.
Although there are still shells, but the naval guns really need to rest, and if they continue to shoot, I am afraid that there will be problems.
after all...
It's been an hour of continuous shooting without stopping!
"Is this dead?"
At this moment, the six warships have come to the outside of the ice layer, and on the deck, Taotu looked at the tragic scene of thick smoke billowing in front, and couldn't help but ask.
"There are definitely still people alive. After all, among these famous pirate groups, ordinary pirates don't talk about it, but most of those captains and cadres are domineering, and there are many people with various abilities."
Shaking his head, Li Yan replied.
"Send a signal and ask Nuo Qigao to inform the general that it is time to act!"
"At the same time, order all the soldiers in the fleet to board the ice in full armor, cooperate with the marines of the G1 branch, and clear all the pirates!"
He sensed it with a sense of sight, and then Li Yan ordered loudly.
And when he heard the order, the sailors of the East China Sea Fleet cried out one by one.
They are really tired of this hour of shelling...
At the same time, on the outer wall of the G1 branch.
When he saw a black thunder streak across the sky, Nuoqigao also turned towards Akainu.
"General, Lieutenant General Li Yan has sent a signal that they have begun to land on the ice surface, and they are encircling and suppressing the remaining power of the pirates. Our side..."
"Everyone obeys the order! All are dispatched to exterminate the pirates!"
How could Akainu not understand what Nokigao meant.
To be honest, he's been impatiently waiting.
Before Nuoqi could speak loudly, she gave an order loudly.
As a result, a total of 1,800 people from the East China Sea Fleet plus Taotu, as well as tens of thousands of people from the G1 branch, directly approached the thick smoke in the middle of the ice from two directions...
Let's kill together!
