Chapter 1221 Doppler Retreats
It was not until he heard Gerhand's shout that Doppler finally woke up.
He had been immersed in the duel with Alan just now.
He had ignored the "outside world".
Doppler continued to be wary of Alan in front of him, while he used part of his mind to observe the surrounding situation.
On the Hyperion - as the most powerful fighter in their army, he was dragged by Alan.
Without his assistance, his soldiers could not do anything to Su Cheng's guards.
Outside the Hyperion - the ships of the combined fleet have been approaching one after another.
Soon, they will form a siege on the Hyperion and their three ships closely around the Hyperion.
If they are really surrounded, even if Doppler can fight one against ten thousand, there is no hope of escape.
After all, they are now on the lake.
If the ship is trapped, it means that it has lost the ability to move.
If it loses the ability to move, it will really be difficult to fly.
"Tsk..." Doppler groaned with reluctance, "Is there no time..."
Whether it was Doppler's own judgment of the battle situation or Doppler's intuition, they were telling Doppler the same thing:
He currently had no chance to take Su Cheng's head. If he didn't retreat quickly, he would be the one to be headed.
After finally attacking the Hyperion, Su Cheng's head was within reach.
Doppler was naturally very unwilling to give up like this.
The reason why Doppler only led 3 ships to charge and directly attack the flagship of the Combined Fleet was not for fame or profit.
It was just to defeat his former self.
It was just to challenge his own limits.
As long as he could take Su Cheng's head with only 3 ships, it would mean that his bravery and his talent would far surpass his previous self, and his bravery and talent would reach a level that no one had ever been able to defeat before.
If he gave up like this, it would mean that his challenge to himself as his opponent had failed.
But no matter how unwilling he was, Doppler quickly adjusted his emotions and mentality, and then made the best decision at the moment:
"Retreat! Retreat from the warship!"
"Uncle! Take the soldiers back to the warship! I'll cover you!"
Doppler's shouts just now were in Frankish.
So Alan didn't understand what Doppler had just said.
But after seeing the soldiers brought by Doppler begin to retreat in an orderly manner, Alan instantly understood what Doppler meant by what he had just said.
"Asshole! Don't even think about escaping!"
After shouting angrily, Alan chased after Doppler and others who were retreating.
However - Alan was stopped by Su Cheng before he could chase far.
"Alan! Come back! Don't chase!"
Alan turned his head and cast a puzzled look at Su Cheng.
"Don't chase? Brother! Why not?"
"We can't spend too much time chasing Doppler now."
Su Cheng responded to Alan in a flat tone.
"Have you seen the Royal Fleet on the other side?"
"Because of Doppler's disturbance, our army's formation is now in chaos."
"If the Royal Fleet on the other side launches an attack at this time, it will be troublesome."
"So our first priority now is to quickly reorganize the formation."
"If we go to chase Doppler, it will inevitably take up a lot of our time and energy and disrupt our formation deployment."
"Which of the two is more important, Alan, you should be able to judge it yourself?"
After saying that, Su Cheng raised his head, Loudly said:
"Pass my order!"
"No one should chase these three enemy ships!"
"Make way, let them get out of our army!"
"After these three enemy ships leave, quickly reorganize the formation!"
"Well..." Alan pursed his lips and said in a tone full of unwillingness, "Brother... are you really going to let that Doppler go..."
"Although I don't really want to admit it,
But this Doppler is really strong."
"Let go of this big trouble, is it really okay...?"
"Let him go for now."
Su Cheng smiled helplessly.
"There will be a chance to capture or kill him in the future."
...
...
Under Su Cheng's military order, all the ships of the combined fleet did not chase Doppler.
All the warships made way for Doppler's three ships to leave.
Without any casualties, Doppler and his men left the combined fleet safely.
After Doppler and his men left, the combined fleet began to seize the time to reorganize their military formation, which had been in chaos due to Doppler's attack.
The combined fleet's formation reorganization was quite timely.
When Doppler and his men just started to retreat, the opposite Royal Fleet showed signs of launching an attack.
Fortunately, the combined fleet reorganized its military formation in time.
After the combined fleet quickly reorganized its formation, the opposite Royal Fleet's signs of intending to launch an attack stopped.
While reorganizing the formation, the combined fleet also began to count the casualties they had suffered in the previous battle with Doppler.
After the casualty data was counted and presented to Su Cheng, Su Cheng's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
In this battle that just ended with Doppler's surprise attack, a total of 17 large and small warships were sunk, 41 warships were damaged to varying degrees, and 1,486 soldiers were killed or injured.
Fortunately, Raymond and Samuel, who had fought with Doppler, were still alive.
After both of them fell into the lake, they were immediately rescued and treated by the surrounding soldiers.
Samuel was only slightly injured.
Although Raymond's injuries were much more serious than Samuel's, they were not fatal.
Although Doppler's charge did not cause much damage to the combined fleet, it caused a great shock to the hearts of the soldiers of the combined fleet.
From Su Cheng to the ordinary soldiers who had come into contact with Doppler's troops, they were all shocked by Doppler's bravery.
Doppler's bravery not only shocked Su Cheng's combined fleet.
It also shocked Otto's Royal Fleet.
Doppler only led 3 ships to charge.
Then he returned with three ships that were almost unscathed.
Otto and others standing on the deck of the flagship Helles were stunned to see all this.
Doppler disobeyed orders and acted on his own - according to military law, Doppler's behavior was enough to be sentenced to death.
However - Doppler was not subject to military law at all.
So Otto could not punish Doppler according to the provisions of military law.
In addition, Doppler successfully snatched back the head of his right-hand man, Ge Yunser.
At the same time, Doppler's heroic behavior of leading only three ships and daring to rush directly to the enemy's main camp also had different effects on the morale of the enemy and our army.
Although Doppler failed to succeed and failed to successfully take Su Cheng's head, his bravery still successfully hit the morale of the combined fleet and inspired the fighting spirit of the Royal Fleet.
The haze of yesterday's defeat to the combined fleet was swept away.
From this level, Otto also has to thank Doppler.
To sum up, Otto had no way to punish Doppler, either emotionally or logically.
Therefore, the punishment of Doppler could only be left unresolved.
