Thirty-five, Bloody Battle of the Arctic Sea (Part 2)
The "Golden Coin" is also uncomfortable. Even though Queen Xinbu's force field wall resists shells, and even uses the earth silver fire given to the goddess of magic to destroy the hull of the "Excellent", he still endured the strafing of at least ten solid bullets and more flowering bullets, and the deck is in a mess.
However, the Elf Fleet could not withstand it. Their warships were already damaged during long-distance voyages. In the long-term, high-intensity confrontation, and now they have been exhausted. Several ships even lost their ability to move and even had shells exhausted. Under the close-fitting bombardment and slamming of the Imperial Fleet, the severely damaged Elf Cruiser jumped in flames, and soon began to explode and sink one after another. The remaining flagship "Excellent" sank, and they also lost the will to continue fighting, and they sailed to retreat one after another. The desperate struggle of the "Golden Coin" finally changed the situation.
Looking at the opponent who was gradually sinking in the fire, the sailors with dark faces and scorched heads all showed relaxed smiles. Even Queen Xinbu, who was almost exhausted due to continuous magic, leaned against the bulkhead and laughed to the sky without any grace. Although this time, under the superior force of five to one, the Imperial Fleet made a four to one exchange ratio and lost all the entire transport fleet, at least it won.
Unfortunately, the next moment, they couldn't laugh.

"Where is the land boat coming from...ah, it's over!"
Leo, the clerk who had just drafted the good news, accidentally looked up and looked into the distance, then his face looked like earth, threw the good news on the bad news, and quickly wrote his own 10,02 suicide notes. After the other sailors showed abnormalities.
It's also a battle between two people, and their hands and feet are cold.
I saw the water and sky in the northwest of the battlefield. A group of warships lined up in a row. One by one, one by one, and the entire fleet followed. They rushed towards the battlefield. And just now, the water column was full of black smoke. The Empire fleet was not careful for a while, and the fleet only appeared when it was about to reach the range of the artillery. The green leaf flag on the mast even showed the other party's identity...
"The enemy's reinforcements came out of Arctic Port! Organize a counterattack immediately!"
Organizing a counterattack? How easy is it! In order to intercept Freya's small fleet just now, the Imperial Navy was trapped between the Freya fleet and the Arctic Port, almost putting its own ** to the enemy of the Arctic Port. Just as the Imperial Navy was still desperately making a giant gyration maneuver, the opponent had already reached the front, and all the artillery was aimed at the Imperial Fleet that had been fighting for a long time.
There was a loud bang on the leading warship, followed by thousands of cannons roaring together, and the shells were slammed in arcs. For a moment, violent explosions occurred on all ships, and broken limbs and bones were flying all over the sky. A row of shells hit the flagship "Gold Coin". While breaking the mast, Queen Xinbu also lifted the sea from the bridge.
After a brief silence, the Imperial Navy also plucked up Yu Yong to fight back, but the artillery fire was sparse and could not form a joint force. It turned out that under the long battle, the Imperial fleet not only had many artillery damage, but also had few gunners who could move. The elves that came to rescue from the Arctic Port felt that their opponents had become dogs of water, and they became more and more brave as they fought. Rows of dense shells were hit happily. Commander-in-chief Lieutenant General Daniel pointed to the "Gold Coin" that had lost its power and roamed the sea, and shouted to his subordinates: "All people pay attention, concentrate their firepower to knock out the enemy's golden flagship! As long as they were given a warning, these cowards would not have the courage to fight again!"
But before the "Golden Coin" was killed, the Imperial fleet had lost the courage to continue fighting. These warships were originally seriously injured and were left behind by severely injured people who were left behind by others. It was already a surprise that they could defeat the Frya fleet. As for continuing to fight for the next elves fleet... These guys were not prepared to sacrifice their lives from spirit to *!
The most fierce "Golden Coin" that had been fighting the most fiercely the momentum lost its motivation due to the collapse of the main mast. Leo, the clerk who was the first to hang up the white flag and was considering suicide, was also tied up by the rebel sailor as an important figure, as a form of a throwing to the enemy. Other warships also struggled to escape to the mainland after barely fighting back a round of shells.
Due to too many shells and too much seawater, the situation of these warships is no longer possible to support any long-distance sailing. The sailors just hope to reach a place closer to the land so that they can get ashore. As for whether there will be other dangers on the shore, these poor guys are completely out of their minds.
This sea battle outside the Arctic Port ended with a short and bloody pursuit. The last few Imperial warships left on the battlefield were all destroyed by the pursuing elves fleet, and none of them were successfully stranded. The sea was filled with struggling soldiers, and the elves could still pray for the rescue of their own warships, while the Imperial soldiers had to paddle desperately into the land several miles away. But even if they avoided the lead bombs shot from the elves, the sea water close to the freezing point alone was enough to take away the heat of the swimming body in the shortest time...
This battle ended with a complete failure of the Empire. The Elf Navy lost only ten fast cruisers, and in addition to more than sixty warships sunk or captured, the Imperial Fleet also hosted an army elite of more than 20,000 people with more than 20,000 troops. In addition to those warships fleeing to the southern ports, less than 2,000 army soldiers and sailors in the expeditionary army successfully crossed the sea of ice and boarded the land of the New World in a lifeboat or carrying wood. If they had not happened to meet the scouts of the Giant Bear Legion when they got ashore, this number would have been further reduced.
The elves were filled with joy: less than a day after arriving in the New World, this long-distance exhausted soldier won two one-sided victories on land and at sea. While proving that all enemies are paper tigers, they also gave them more confidence in completely conquering this land and plundering the wealth here. Faced with such a good situation, even Lieutenant General Daniel, who has always been passive and pessimistic, could not help but feel a little fluttering, and even pondered the words of the good news in advance.
