The naval battles of this era did not have many tricks.
When the distance was far, bows and crossbows and large crossbows on the ship were used for long-range attacks.
When the distance was close, they would ram the enemy ship or launch a boarding operation.
The secret of their victory was nothing more than "big ships beat small ships, and more ships beat fewer ships."
In a hurry, only less than 40% of the warships had time to sail out of Bishui Port to meet the sudden attack of the Britannia Empire Navy.
And these warships that finally sailed out of the port to meet the enemy were too urgent, so they did not have time to integrate the fleet formation.
This gave Mude a good opportunity to fight.
"Gather the main battleships! Charge the enemy!"
Under Mud's order, the main battleships of the Britannia Empire Navy Fleet gathered together to form an assault formation like a cavalry wedge formation.
The main battleship Mud was talking about was Ship No. 1 of the Navy's four types of warships. Compared with other types of ships, Ship No. 1 was the largest and strongest, and was specially used to ram enemy ships. It was undoubtedly the main battleship of the fleet.
The No. 1 ships gathered together and gradually formed a huge assault formation.
Mud's flagship, the Hyperion, was in the center of this assault formation.
"Charge!"
Mud wanted to tear apart the fleet formation of the Holy Hilan Empire in one breath!
As Mud's assault order was issued, the "shocking wave" composed of Ship No. 1 rushed towards the fleet of the Holy Hilan Empire with amazing power.
The time was too short, and the warships that left the port urgently did not have time to integrate into a complete ship formation.
Sentinel ships, battleships, shield ships... all kinds of ships were mixed together in a disorderly manner.
"Shield ships, move forward! Shield ships, move forward! The enemy's assault array is coming! Shield ships, move forward quickly!"
Leonid, the commander of the Blue Water Port Navy Fleet, shouted until his voice was almost hoarse, but he could not calm his soldiers down and act according to his orders.
The Holy Hilan Empire's navy had been at ease for too long. They had always been fighting pirates. Facing the sudden attack of the Britannia Empire Fleet, most of the generals and soldiers had a blank mind and didn't even know what to do with their hands and feet. They watched the Britannia Empire Fleet's assault array getting closer and closer...
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Ship No. 1, like a hill, sank and overturned one Northern Kingdom warship after another.
For a while, the sound of collisions on the sea surface came one after another, and wood chips flew and waves splashed.
The smaller ships were sunk directly, and the Hiran soldiers on the ships fell into the water.
Some soldiers who were good at swimming immediately floated back to the surface after falling into the water.
However, after they floated back to the surface, they saw a bunch of shining spears stabbing at them...
It was the patrol boat of the Britannia Empire Fleet.
After the assault formation composed of warship No. 1 began to hit the enemy fleet,
Warship No. 3, that is, the patrol boat, followed closely behind and on both wings of the assault formation.
It was to kill the Hiran marines who fell into the water.
The patrol boat was the fastest and the smallest. The length of the spears of the soldiers standing on the patrol boat was just enough to stab the enemies on the sea surface. It was the best ship for this task.
One after another, the patrol boats quickly approached the black shadows that emerged from the sea, and the shining spears stabbed at the Hilan Marines one by one...
The blood that spurted out dyed the sea red, and the dense corpses floating on the entire sea surface were shocking.
Some larger ships were not sunk by the assault formation of the Britannia Empire Fleet. They were just shaken left and right, making the Hilan Marines on the ship unstable, stumbling and falling.
And these larger ships that could not be sunk had to be dealt with by the soldiers of Ship No. 1.
Under Mud's command, a part of the No. 1 warship was separated to continuously squeeze the unsinkable large ships in the Northern Fleet.
Soon, the No. 1 warship of the Britannia Empire formed a siege, surrounding more than 20 large ships of the Northern Kingdom in the center.
"Shoot!"
With Mud's order, bows and crossbows were fired, shooting the Hilan marines on the ships surrounded in the center and desperate.
Some Hilan marines jumped into the sea when they were desperate.
However, jumping into the sea may be more dangerous.
Because jumping into the sea will be hunted and killed by patrol ships.
After firing a volley at the group of northern ships surrounded in the center, the boarding tactic was launched.
Although Ship No. 2 is a ship specially used for boarding tactics, it does not mean that Ship No. 1 cannot use this tactic.
Boarding tactics-this tactic can be done by any ship, but Ship No. 2 is specially responsible for this tactic.
One by one, the Britannia marines wearing strong armor and holding sharp swords jumped onto the enemy warships and chased the enemy on the ships.
This "Northern Great Turn" operation has been prepared more than half a year ago.
After the fleet was stationed in Port Lot, Mud and Blaise trained the navy every day.
Although the training time was not long, the navy's combat effectiveness was greatly improved through such emergency exercises.
In terms of combat effectiveness, the Hilan Marines, who had been at ease for too long and were only used to fighting weak pirates, were no match for the Britannian Marines who had received emergency training.
The Hilan Marines on the large ships were wiped out, and then the bottoms of the ships were pierced and sunk into the sea...
Under the assault of the assault formation composed of the No. 1 warship, the Hilan fleet that had hurriedly left the port to meet the attack had been mostly destroyed...
...
...
While the No. 1 and No. 3 warships destroyed the Hilan fleet that had left the port, the No. 2 warship was not idle either.
Under the command of Blaze, the No. 2 warship went straight to the naval base of the Blue Water Port!
Its goal was to make most of the warships in the Blue Water Port sink to the bottom of the sea without even having the chance to leave the port.
As the No. 2 warships approached the naval base of the Blue Water Port, the Britannian Marines jumped off the deck and broke into the naval base of the Blue Water Port.
Most of the Hiran marines in the Bluewater Harbor Naval Base had just gotten up and had not even had time to wipe off the dirt from their eyes when they encountered the Britannia marines who had entered the naval base...
The destruction of the Bluewater Harbor Naval Base was proceeding in an orderly manner.
Some soldiers were responsible for killing the enemy soldiers in the base.
Other soldiers were responsible for destroying the warships that were parked in the dock and had not had time to leave the port to meet the enemy.
For wooden warships, the fastest way to destroy them was naturally fire attack.
Barrels of kerosene were poured on the warships.
With a flash of sparks, the raging fire immediately engulfed all the warships in the dock.
The sky-high flames illuminated the entire Bluewater Harbor, the entire sea, and the entire sky. </tent>
