Chapter 15: Battle of Adriatic (9)

"It's the enemy attack!"

Olus roared at the top of his voice. He pulled out the sword for command, but then he stayed in place at a loss. He wanted to order a counterattack, but he couldn't think of how to fight back against the flying objects floating in the sky. The height of these hot air balloons was far beyond the range of the bow and arrow.

Not only Olus, all the soldiers were on the deck at this moment, and they were at a loss as they watched the fire burning on the water. The ocean fire should have been the winning weapon that only they had, and the scene in front of them had exceeded their brains' reaction ability.

"Use a crossbow!"

Olus was the first to react. Seeing that the soldiers beside the crossbow were still in a daze, he rushed over and kicked him away. His colleague shouted at the soldiers in front of the crossbow: "Find something to raise the front end and hit it diagonally!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the hot air balloon that had already arrived above them dropped the second bottle and fell to Olus. Olus's body suddenly burned. He rolled on the ground in pain, but this was just to ignite more wooden boards. In a panic, he jumped into the sea-

explode.

The ocean fire prepared by Paracelsus will explode after contacting the water, which is a characteristic that the ocean fire of the Seven Hills Empire does not have. The naval soldiers of the Seven Hills Empire stared at the splashing water, and watched the sails on the flagship burning to ashes in the flames. After a brief silence, the ships they controlled were like ants that had been washed away by the water, running around in a mess!

However, this sea area is too narrow. It takes a lot of time to pass through batches in an orderly manner. After this random rush, the entire fleet was immediately stuck and difficult to move!

A large number of hot air balloons floated over them. One bottle after another filled with ocean fire fell, and each one caused an explosion and a raging fire. The ability to burn on the water made this sea area suddenly turn into a sea of ​​fire. In order to exert the power of ocean fire, Olus chose a narrow terrain, which became a cage that trapped them!

Ella looked at the fire from afar and listened to the wailing of the soldiers of the Seven Hills Empire.

"What's going on?" Pocarios felt at a loss. "It's flying, explosion, and fire, what kind of magic is this?"

"We have to calm the soldiers first!" Ella shouted, "I want to go over, hurry up and row hard!"

The sound of war drums. A medium-sized fleet came from the northwest, the warships stationed in the capital of the Island Republic.

"I actually took advantage of the situation to rob!" Ella was anxious, but she still tried to keep her voice calm. "This fleet is not large in size, and as long as it can be organized, it should be able to break through smoothly!"

There was another sound of war drums, louder and more intense than the previous one.

Ella turned her head with a blue face, only to see the main fleet of the Island Republic, who was left behind by her, was lined up and headed towards this side.

They were pincerated.

The northwest wind continued to blow strongly and violently.

Ella had long known that the Island Republic had the fire of the ocean and had long experienced aircraft that could fly in the sky. But she never thought that it would be possible to fight like this in naval battles - not through the sea, but through the sky.

——Who planned this battle?”

The black smoke from the fire burned the ships was vaguely visible even in the capital of the Island Republic. On the harbor was a luxurious seat with a fat, oily piece of meat from Patisipacchio. He held a wine glass full of wine in one hand and played with a few gold coins in the other. On the left and right sides were the silver-haired maid Epolita, and the brightly dressed messenger Giovanni.

The black smoke in the distance makes Patisipacio feel relaxed

"It's a big fire. Ipolita, this time, your plan is good."

Hearing Pattisipacio's praise, the maid named Ipolita smiled strangely. She crawled on the ground, swam to Pattisipacio's feet like a snake, took off Pattisipacio's boots with both hands, and kissed his toes affectionately: "I will give you this victory, my honorable Governor."

Giovanni obviously couldn't stand Ipolita's actions and frowned and said, "The Navy is still fighting, how can you give the victory to the Governor?"

"Faced with such a sudden attack, the enemy soldiers must have been panicked and ran around without obeying the orders - even the general on the opposite side did not know what kind of orders should be issued."

Ipolita lowered Patisipacio's toes and smiled contemptuously while rubbing the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

"No general can make the soldiers face the fire calmly. We have won. The fleet of the Seven Hills Empire will be destroyed today."

"Govani, do your own thing." Patisipicio said meaningfully, "You said with confidence that you could find a powerful Allied army for the Island Republic. Where are the people? More than a month after the war started, I only saw a team of about a thousand people in the Earl of Babenburg, running away after the hot air balloon. The attack time of the Seven Hill Empire was earlier than you expected. If the capital had not been sufficiently sufficient supplies, the Island Republic would have almost been destroyed by the seakou you boasted about!"

Faced with such harsh words, if it were ordinary people, they were already scared to kneel in front of Patisipacio and apologized. However, Giovanni replied without changing his face: "Governor General, in fact, tens of thousands of troops are ready to go, just waiting for a signal."

"Signal?" asked Pattisipacio, "What signal?"

"A victory - an overwhelming victory," said Giovanni. "The tide will collapse, and everyone will push it. The princes of the Almani Federation, the countries of the Apennine Peninsula, hundreds of lords, and tens of thousands of soldiers are all waiting for this signal to invade the Seven Hills Empire."

Patisipacio snorted: "They do business."

"Then it seems that this signal is today." Ipolita smiled under Patisipacio's toes, "As soon as the Navy of the Seven Hills Empire is defeated, the sea is under our control. Our army can invade from any point on the long coastline and plunder it wantonly, so that the army of the Seven Hills Empire will lose sight of one thing. Even if we cannot conquer Constantinier in the end, the national destiny of the Seven Hills Empire will come to an end."

"Robbery. Those barbarians from the Almani Federation should like it very much."

Patisipacio laughed.

"Ipolita, what kind of reward do you want to get after this naval battle is successful?"

"I don't want to get any reward, just, I have a trivial request."

Ipolita stuck out his tongue and licked it all the way from Patisipacio's soles to the instep.
