Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 352

The battle in Westport City is still going on fiercely. Although the goblins fighting the kingdom's army are not as incompetent as people used to think, their individual strength is still far inferior to human soldiers, not to mention their number is not as good as the kingdom's army.

After the initial fear and surprise, the soldiers of the kingdom's army gradually discovered that the opponent was not as scary as they thought at first, and began to actively fight.

Seeing that the victory was gradually falling to the kingdom's army, Harrison breathed a sigh of relief.

What surprised him was that apart from the pirates commanding the goblins, he hadn't seen the main force of the pirates yet. Harrison didn't believe that just a few humans leading a group of goblins could occupy so many of Westport.

"Perhaps the Northwest Fleet managed to contain the pirates at the pier? I don't know if they are under a lot of pressure."

On the one hand, he was worried that the friendly forces would not be able to bear it, and on the other hand, in order to end the battle as soon as possible, Harrison selected a detachment and rushed to the port quickly under his personal leadership. The battle with the goblins was coming to an end, and the human pirates who commanded them were also killed. The goblins who lost their command quickly recovered their nature and were completely reduced to a group of rabble.

Harrison led the team to assault the wharf area with all their strength. There was no one on the road, and the residents were hiding at home and did not dare to go out, which made their operation very smooth.

After coming to the beach in one go, Harrison and his men saw a naval battle scene they had never seen before: on the distant sea, the pirate fleet flying the red flying dragon flag was facing head-on with the pirate fleet flying the skull flag.

The Northwest Fleet consisted of 12 ships. At the beginning, they generally sailed from north to south, while the pirate fleet launched an attack from their east. After the first few rounds of confrontation, the first 6 sailing ships began to turn left and head east to outflank the pirate fleet. However, the 12 The two ships still maintain the line shape of the guard end-to-end. If you look down from the top, the Northwest Fleet at this time should be in an arc.

Every time the pirate warships approached the Northwest Fleet, they would be beaten hard. It is too flattering to describe them as a confrontation. In Harrison's view, it would be better if the pirates were unilaterally beaten.

Harrison had seen the Northwest Rao artillery display before, and today he finally realized its terrifying power. Every time the pirate fleet was about to regroup or collide, thick white smoke would be sprayed from the Northwest ship, and then the opposite pirate ship It will fall into chaos, and the formation will be disrupted again. Harrison, who had seen artillery before, knew that the white smoke was accompanied by deadly high-speed metal projectiles.

The power of the projectile is so powerful. When the first sailing ship completed its turn and paralleled with a pirate ship, the distance between the two ships was only a dozen meters. The pirates on the deck were ready to jump gangs, but the Northwest Warship The port side of the ship suddenly opened fire, and the two rows of artillery roared one after the other. The pirate ship on the opposite side was beaten into sawdust, and the primary target of the artillery was the oarsmen in the cabin. It was so flexible. After the first sailboat passed by, the second sailboat continued to bombard. With the large number of casualties of the oarsmen, many pirate ships could only drift with the wind.

Harrison was fine, but most of his subordinates were surprised and even dumbstruck when they saw Northwestern Rao's [magic] for the first time.

"My lord, there won't be a wizard on the Northwest Rao's boat, right?"

An officer asked Harrison with a worried face.

"Don't be suspicious!" Harrison reprimanded him. "I have seen their weapons with my own eyes. They are called artillery. They fire ammunition like bows and crossbows to attack the enemy. The people who operate them are ordinary soldiers!"

It's not a good time to be associated with witchcraft these days.

The battle on the sea continued for more than two hours. Although the solid shells are very powerful against the human body, they are not enough for the ships themselves, especially wooden ships, and it is difficult to achieve the effect of sinking.

The firepower of the 6 galleys behind the Arda fleet was relatively weak, and four of them were taken over by the enemy. The pirates thought that they had finally broken through the opponent's long-range attack and could use their strengths to kill in close quarters. However, what greeted them was The ruthless blow of the muskets, the pirates who jumped on the Arda warship because they didn't know the muskets in the hands of the sailors fell down most of them in one encounter, and the fish that slipped through the net ushered in hand-to-hand combat...

After being passively beaten continuously, the pirates gave up their plan to continue fighting. 10 warships fled to the south with all their strength, and the remaining 8 warships failed to escape due to too many oarsmen casualties. white flag.

"General Tirpitz!"

Harrison smiled and opened his arms to the fleet commander who stepped onto the dock.

"Oh, don't dare, I'm not a general yet!"

While affirming, Tirpitz accepted the other party's enthusiasm.

"This time we won a big victory!"

Harrison was very happy. This was his first battle, not only related to his personal honor, but also related to the fate of the family. Ever since his father let his aunt with a bad background come in, the Abbott family lost the grace of His Majesty the King. After sitting on the bench for many years in a row, the family needs military exploits to rise again.

Alas, if there hadn't been that incident, he must have been among the generals who went south to suppress the rebellion this time, right?

Harrison shook his head, pushing the flash of regret out of his mind.

While chatting with Tirpitz, he walked towards the city hall, where soldiers had already cleaned it up.

The two slowly came to the central square, surrounded by many people, not only soldiers, but also residents who had the courage to come out.

Tirpitz asked: "What are they doing?"

Harrison replied with a smile: "We captured some goblins brought by the pirates alive, and those people are using them to vent their anger!"

"Goblin? The legendary Goblin?"

The fleet commander pushed his way through the crowd, and Harrison's guards immediately cleared the way for him.

I saw a group of short humanoid creatures shivering and huddled on the ground, with their pointed and long ears hanging down, looking weak and helpless.

From the bruises and tattered clothes on their bodies, it can be seen that these guys have taken a lot of beatings.

"What? Commander Tirpitz, is this the first time you've seen a goblin?"

"Haha, stop goblins. We hardly see any aliens in the northwest bay. I heard that the dwarves in the northern mountains sometimes come down to trade some items, but I haven't seen them."

"Don't be fooled by their current appearance. These creatures are extremely fierce and brutal in their bones. I will execute them all later."

"Understood, but can you give me a few? I want to take it back to open the eyes of people in my hometown."

"This..." Harrison hesitated. He wanted to refuse, but the opponent was the person who helped him win, and he was dealing with the main force of the pirates.

"Okay, but I can only give you one. If you don't want the goblins in the northwest bay to become a disaster, you must also know that the reproductive power of this creature is comparable to that of mice."

"Uh...why not give more males or females?"

"There are rumors that when there are only males or only females left in a group of goblins, some individuals will switch genders, so be careful... and even if you only give you one, you must be strictly guarded. I am tired of seeing it. Just kill it quickly, don't let it escape, you know what kind of crooked goblins are doing.”

"So amazing? Well, I'll make a note of it."

The two were talking when a government official hurried over on horseback.

"Viscount Dylan, are you here so soon?"

Harrison was surprised that the visitor was Viscount Dylan who was in charge of handing over supplies to the Northwest Gulf fleet in Westport.

"I followed the army into the city!"

Dylan replied angrily.

"What makes you so angry? We just won a battle."

"It's gone, it's gone!"

"What's gone?"

"The materials in the warehouse~www.mtlnovel.com~ I just went there to check, and they are all gone! Kill the pirates, I curse them!"

Dylan jumped off his horse and began to curse at the pirates in a language unbefitting of his aristocratic status.

Harrison frowned, "This is too bad, the southern army will definitely be affected."

Tirpitz comforted the two: "As long as the sea is safe, the goods from the Northwest Gulf will continue to arrive."

"Exactly! Lord Tirpitz!"

Viscount Dylan suddenly grabbed the fleet commander's hand firmly.

"The main force of the pirates has disappeared, but I think these **** will come again. Please stay here with your fleet."

"Ahem!" Harrison pretended to cough a few times, and reminded the viscount, "This should be decided by His Majesty the King."

Dylan suddenly remembered that the Northwest Fleet was sent by the foreign lord, and his identity was a little sensitive. Embarrassment appeared on his face, and he stood aside silently.

Tirpitz didn't think it would be that complicated, but he felt that Dylan had a reason,

Embarrassed: "I can't make the decision myself, I have to ask Earl Greyman for instructions."
