Chapter 65-White Flag

“What the hell is that?”

Lord Callett Beckett could no longer maintain his so-called aristocratic composure, grabbed Captain Arnold by the collar, and asked hysterically.

I can’t blame him for not being able to maintain his composure, because he has lost five battleships in just three minutes!

Five battleships!

This loss will definitely make King George II jump from the bed angrily.

Although Beckett had originally planned to lose five to seven warships, it was after the breach of Port Royal.


And now his fleet is close to four nautical miles away from Port Royal, and it hasn’t even reached the maximum range of shipborne guns.

Without even seeing the enemy’s face, his fleet has already lost a tenth. How can this battle be fought?

“Well, maybe it’s a new type of artillery newly developed by the enemy?”

Captain Arnold wiped the sweat from his face. He has never encountered such a weird incident. He clearly hasn’t reached the maximum range of the artillery, but the opponent’s artillery can attack him. This is simply a spiritual incident!

Not to mention the terrifying power of the opponent’s artillery, it makes people feel uncomfortable.

Regardless of whether it is a Tier 1 battleship or a Tier 3 battleship, as long as it is hit, it will immediately become a pile of debris floating on the sea!

Captain Arnold had never imagined such a range, such a power.

The other party possesses such a weapon of war, and his party is still thinking about attacking the other party, which is simply reckless.

Now he can be regarded as realizing what it means to be difficult to ride a tiger!

“Damn it!”

Lord Beckett still opened Captain Arnold’s collar, knowing that there would be no results to ask him, and quickly forced himself to calm down.

Being able to stand out from thousands of people and being appointed by George II as the new commander-in-chief of the Caribbean, Beckett’s mind is quite flexible. The gaffe just now was just because he suddenly encountered a sudden situation beyond understanding Ability. Feeling flustered.

“Order all ships to move forward at full speed, directly break through the blockade of Port Royal, and prepare to fight hand-to-hand!”

After silently calculating the firing speed and power of the opponent’s artillery, Beckett immediately made the most suitable choice.

The opponent’s artillery is extremely powerful and has a range far beyond that of his own. The only chance that he can come back now is to rely on a large number of people and rush to close combat!

According to the current bombardment frequency and hit rate of the opponent, as long as all the ships move forward, about one-third of the warships will be able to reach the dock in Port Royal before sinking.

Even if there are only one-third of the warships, there are five or six thousand soldiers, and even if the pirates are counted in Port Royal, there will be no more than two thousand.

Six thousand to two thousand can still be played.

Although the entire fleet will definitely suffer heavy losses in this way, as long as the artillery that is still raging can be snatched, Beckett thinks it is worth it!

Such a cannon with super long range and super firepower, if it can be handed over to the Royal Academy of Sciences for research, then the British Empire will no longer be a dream to rule the world.

“The enemy seems courageous!” Seeing through the binoculars that the British fleet not only didn’t retreat, but instead swelled its sails toward Port Royal, Li Qingyuan nodded slightly.

“Although the British Army is vulnerable, the naval strength is still very strong.” Ramuel quickly agreed, but as a former British artillery who had surrendered less than two months ago, you are too efficient as a surrendering seller. Is it high?

A creature like a traitor would definitely make people hate it if it appeared under one’s own hands, but if it appeared on the enemy side, it would be really gratifying.

So Li Qingyuan just nodded silently and instructed Ramuel to speed up the shelling.

Governor Swann looked at the sinking warships in the courtyard, and then at the giant cannons that were firing in front of him, and he felt a sigh in his heart.

The British Empire fleet, invincible in the world, is now like a group of living targets, without even a trace of resistance.

Such scenes could not help but remind him of the scene when the Spanish first landed on the American continent two hundred years ago.

The warriors of the Aztecs and the Mayans, carrying stone axes and fearlessly attacked the Spanish phalanx equipped with arquebus and mortars, and were killed on the offensive road like prey.

And now, the British fleet is like those Azcots. Although their courage is worthy of praise, they have no influence on the situation of the battle.

Li Qingyuan has ordered people to set up the table. He is now enjoying his coffee while blowing the breeze, watching those battleships turn into splendid Firework.

“Fourteen! Fifteen!”

The British warships have reached the range of the old artillery. Sitting on the top of the mountain, you can clearly see those warships with the naked eye. Li Qingyuan quietly counted the number of sunk warships, and then asked Elizabeth next to her.

“Do you think a few more ships will be sunk before those soldiers will surrender?”

“The British soldiers are the most elite existence in the world, so they won’t surrender!” Swan File Size, who was forced to sit in a chair, replied arrogantly.

“Uh, what are these people?” Li Qingyuan pointed at Ramuel, who was instructing his men to adjust the angle of the artillery, and the artillerymen under him.

“They are not authentic British soldiers!” Elizabeth said without hesitation.



“Uh, then I want to see how tough these soldiers from the British mainland are!” Li Qingyuan smiled slightly, and ordered to Ramuel.

“Order the other artillery to fire!”

Although he only modified one gun due to time cost and some concerns, but now those British ships have entered the firing range of shore defense guns. There are still dozens of old artillery pieces left on the top of the mountain. Where are they? Isn’t it a waste of sunbathing?

“boom–”

The roar of the cannons was deafening in an instant, and the power of these old artillery was not too loud, but the noise was not small, and even the dining table on the top of the mountain could sway from side to side.

“Sixteen! Seventeen!”

With the rapid increase in the number of artillery, two more British warships were sunk on the sea.

Although these old-fashioned shore defense guns did not cause much damage, the British army who came first was already a frightened bird. Suddenly hearing so many artillery fires, they were scared to lose their most basic operations.

After all, he could only be pressed on the sea to explode the hammer, and there was no ability to fight back at all. This was completely beyond the cognition range of ordinary soldiers.

“eighteen!”

When another warship was sunk, even if it was only two nautical miles away from the dock at Port Royal, those British warships did not dare to advance anymore.

In Elizabeth’s stunned expression, dozens of battleships directly hung white flags!
