The victory in the east made Liu Peng completely relieved. At this time, it was time for him to attack.

After more than half a year of preparation, Liu Peng has more than 600 warships, more than [-] artillery pieces of various types, and nearly [-] sailors.

Of course, as a traditional maritime power, although it lost a batch when it attacked Mosang in the early days, it lost another batch on Sara Island.

But the Kingdom of Oran still has more than 4000 elite warships, among which there are more than [-] artillery pieces installed.

Now with the addition of Thiago, their number exceeds Liu Peng, but the number of artillery is less than half of Liu Peng.

With the dispatch of the Federal Fleet, Oran Admiral Howard also knew that there was no longer any delay, and then ordered to advance to the east.

Howard knows that although his fleet has an advantage in quantity, it is far inferior to the federal fleet in quality.

So he just deployed the fleet in the Siloam Islands, which are further outside the conqueror's island chain.

Howard's strategy is to rely on the island's heavy artillery group to increase the firepower of his own fleet and make up for the disadvantage of the number of artillery.

It can be said that his idea is very good, but if Howard, who has never commanded a gunboat, does not know that there are other tactics in naval warfare.

At this time, the commander of the Federation Fleet is not Liu Peng, nor Nina, but the commander from another world, Shi Luoni.

The admiral who likes to wear a blue cloak stands on the bow of the ship, and the Oran fleet is in the distance.

Shi Luoni is unknown in this world, but in his world, this commander has a domineering nickname - Sea Tyrant.

He is rich in vast sea areas and a powerful fleet, and those who resist him basically have no good end.

He has experienced countless naval battles in his life and has never lost. It was not until he died of infection with parasites that the power he established collapsed.

This time he was able to regain control of the fleet, and Shironi maintained his usual elegant style.

"Bah, more than three months, what a waste of time, damn broken ship, the speed is really hard!" Shi Luoni kept breathing.

Nina standing next to him was full of black lines: "Mr. Commander, this is already the fastest flagship. If you want to be faster, you can only add wings."

"Haha, the ship in my hometown really flies!" Shironi smiled, and turned to look at the fleet of the Kingdom of Oran.

Howard divided the fleet into five or six battle groups. The intention should be to support each other during the battle, and at the same time to use the heavy artillery firepower on the island.

"They made the whole island look like a hedgehog." Nina didn't answer Shloney's topic, but calmly analyzed his opponent.

Shi Luoni spread his hands: "Haha, so we can't bite it in one bite, or our mouth will be full of blood."

"So you asked General Mistry to lead the fleet to go around from behind to raid the Oran base in the Conqueror Islands?" Nina asked.

Nodding, Shi Luoni's smile remained unchanged: "This is how we can call out the little hedgehogs inside!"

"Okay, it's time to warm up, General Nina, please lead the First Fleet to attack in a crescent shape. Remember, after approaching, open long-range shooting, and don't approach the island."

"In this way, it will be difficult for us to hit the enemy, and our ammunition is limited." Nina raised his own doubts.

Shloney replied: "It's just harassment, as a gesture to make them think there is nothing we can do."

If he hadn't been convinced by Schlony's theory earlier, Nina would not have been willing to be the deputy, so he left with the fleet after listening.

Howard didn't know that his wishful thinking had been cracked. Seeing the Federation Fleet, he immediately ordered to prepare for war.

There was no fierce artillery battle as imagined, and the two sides fired artillery at each other from a long distance, which lasted for more than ten days.

"Marshal, they don't have enough logistical supplies, why are they obediently fighting a war of attrition with us here?" Not to mention Howard, Ashley, the deputy marshal, also saw something strange.

Howard shook his head and said uncertainly: "Maybe I can't think of how to break through my defense?"

"Gentlemen, I think we already know why." A Navy civilian came in with a message.

This is the message sent by the pigeon, the content is not much, but it makes Howard's hands and feet cold in surprise.

The Conqueror Islands behind him, and even the home islands, were attacked by pirates.

It should be said that they were attacked by the vanguard fleet of the United Fleet, but their style is more like pirates.

"It should be Liu Peng's group of pirates. I didn't expect them to go around behind us." Howard snorted coldly.

Although they have sufficient supplies here, the local fleet is weak, and they are not the opponents of those pirates at all.

If Howard sits on the sidelines, then his war career should be over.

"Let Thiago go." Deputy Marshal Ashley said, "They should be familiar with each other."

"It does make sense." Howard nodded and agreed to the order.

Soon, Thiago received an order in the battle group to lead a fleet of [-] warships to destroy the Liu Peng fleet operating in the rear.

Hearing that the opponent was Liu Peng, Thiago was naturally overjoyed, and led his subordinates to the rear.

Seeing a fleet leaving, Shi Luoni did not stop them, but let them go.

"Look, a thorn has been pulled out." Shi Luoni said to the others with a smile.

What they didn't know was that Liu Peng had been waiting for a long time on Tiago's only way to the Conqueror Islands.

After lying in ambush for nearly a month, Liu Peng finally saw Thiago's flag.

"Raise my pirate flag!" Liu Peng drew out his long sword.

Twenty iron-clad warships with billowing black smoke hoisted the Huanglong pirate flag in unison.

The so-called enemies are extremely jealous when they meet, and Thiago also saw that flag.

Although he didn't know the origin of the other party's warship with black smoke and no sails or paddles, it didn't affect his desire to kill the other party.

Thiago's side dispersed the fleet and maintained an absolute numerical advantage to overwhelm them.

But Liu Peng didn't panic, and turned on his horsepower at full speed. From a super long distance, twenty double breech-loading guns opened fire.

These artillery guns equipped with advanced optical range finders have a high hit rate, and they will target four or five warships of the opponent in one round.

How can these wooden warships carry a high-explosive shell?With just one hit, the bow of the entire warship was blown apart.

"What is this!"

A cloud of water exploded next to Thiago's flagship, and the violent explosion and shock wave almost threw him from the ship.

Dilinego said: "This Liu Peng must be hiding his clumsiness. They didn't bring out the best artillery!"

"Speed ​​up, let's paste it."

The tactic of jumping gangs is the best way to make up for the gap between the artillery of the two sides.

But Liu Peng's is a steam ship, which is much faster than a sailing ship. When Thiago and the others are approaching at the risk of great casualties.

They turned around and retreated directly, continuing to maintain a superior range and comprehensive firepower coverage.

Thiago's eyes were already bloodshot, because he saw his subordinates being sunk one by one, so it might be his turn next, right?

"Retreat, retreat..." Before Thiago could finish his sentence, a shell hit his bridge accurately.

In the firelight, he saw Liu Peng's contemptuous smile.

"Gan..."
