Nearly 200 panicked sailors rushed to the deck and heard a loud "boom" sound, the entire warship was shaking and shaking, and the sailors fell down in screams.

A large hole was seen in the bottom cabin of the middle right side of the Dionia warship. The bow of the enemy ship revealed its hideous appearance from the break, and the surging sea water followed.

The enemy ship's rushing momentum was not stopped, and continued to cut forward and expanded the breaking point again. The powerful forward rushing force actually caused the Dionia warship to shift several meters.

The Dionian paddlers knew that the shipwreck was inevitable and jumped into the sea one after another.

Poor Melisander had just climbed onto the boat and had to jump into the sea with a long shield again.

He heard sailors floating on the sea complaining: "Why are there no Clippers coming to block the cover for us?!!"

In fact, the 30 Clippers in Dionia have lost more than half of their thirty-nine flights.

When Leptiles let the heavy infantry who had never trained hide in the captain, he had already estimated that the Syracuses would not have the upper hand in the battle on the ship. However, this time the Syracuse Navy's three-layer oar warships had nearly 50 more than the opponent, so he decisively adopted the "circling" tactic and used the advantage of more ships to allow the extra warships to surround from the outside. When both the enemy and us fought each other, they could take the opportunity to cut into the battlefield and impact the inactive enemy ships.

If in the last naval battle, the legion soldiers on the Dionia warship could quickly resolve the enemy ships, allowing their warships to quickly retract the suspension bridge and re-enter the battle. However, this time the increase in heavy infantry on the Syracuse warships greatly extended the battle time after the legion soldiers boarded the ship, thus providing an opportunity for the outgoing Syracuse warships.

After nearly ten Dionian warships were hit and injured one after another, the rest of the warships realized that the situation was not good. Before the legion soldiers could solve the enemy ship, they took back the crow suspension bridge and began to engage in a real sea battle with the enemy. They did not dare to use the suspension bridge to hook each other, because there were no legion soldiers on the warships (they fought on the enemy ship), so they seized the time to unload the crow suspension bridge.

Syracuse warships have richer experience in naval battles, and the sailors cooperate more tacitly, but because they carry more soldiers, they are less in speed and flexibility. The Dionia warships lack experience in combat between ships, but because they emptied the soldiers, they have an advantage in speed. The situation between the two sides is somewhat opposite to the last naval battle.

Warships of both sides are looking for opportunities on the sea, chasing, hovering, sprinting, and impacting...

From time to time, the wooden pulp of the warship was broken, the warship was damaged, or even sunk...

Over time, Syracuse began to be at a disadvantage in the head-on battle between ships. After all, once the connection was disconnected, there were more warships in the Dionian fleet that could participate in the battle than those in Syracuse, and often put Syracuse warships in a bad situation of one-on-two.

Leptines, who was in the rear and was not involved in the battle, was very anxious and a little nervous after learning about the situation of the fleet through his watch hand on the ship: Is it a plea again this time?!

At this time, the lookout hand shouted above: "A fleet comes from behind!"

The fleet from the south is ours?!Leptenes knew that Dionysius had not sent an order to the city of Syracuse and wanted to transfer the warships in the port, but he was still eagerly looking forward to it.

But after a while, the shout of the lookout hand broke his expectation: "It's a black warship! Black warship!"

……………………………

Finally arrived! Midolades looked at the fierce naval battle ahead and breathed a sigh of relief.

Before departure, Sedorian and other naval generals had already formulated a naval battle plan this time: because they were worried that the Syracuses would avoid war when they saw their fleet was huge and their strength was too strong, so they decided to divide the fleet into two. More than 60 squadrons of the Syracuse three-layer warships captured last time were led by Midolades. After leaving from the port of Turiyi, they sailed southeast, avoiding the reconnaissance of the Syracuse Clippers, and circled a large half circle to meet with the main fleet leading by Syracuse south along the coast in Siliteng.

But what they did not expect was that the Syracuse fleet, which was originally stationed at the port of Silitung, had moved to Crotone this morning. After the Midolades squadron, who had not received timely information, arrived in Silitung, he found that it was empty.

Midolades made a quick decision and made the fleet turn around and finally found both sides of the war on the sea near Crotone.

With Midolades' order, the squadron quickly entered the battle, attacking forward and backward, and sounded the final death knell for the Syracuse fleet!

………………………………

Dionysius, who watched the entire naval battle at the port lighthouse, turned to the stage without saying a word.

Phoebidas, who was walking at the end of the end, continued to look at the maritime battlefield in the distance, and thought to himself: Dionia's novel naval battle method is quite suitable for Sparta. Should I make suggestions to the Elders' Council when I go back?

As for Dionia's continuous victory in the naval battle, it may have a relatively large impact on the battle situation in the entire Greater Greece, which will change the strength comparison between Dionia and Syracuse. He is happy to see this because the Western Mediterranean needs a city-confederate alliance that can balance Syracuse, and he has a premonition that Syracuse's attack on Dionia will be more violent on land...

………………………………

The naval battle has ended, but unlike the cleaner maritime battlefield at the end of the last naval battle, there were scattered wooden oars, broken boat boards, broken warships, floating dead bodies, and countless sailors and soldiers struggling in the water to call for help.

The Dionians drove a broken warship back and forth across the sea, and began to rescue the Dionian sailors and soldiers who fell into the water, and arranged them as much as possible on the warships captured by the Legionnaires.

Because before departure, Davers reminded Seclian, ‘After the victory of the naval battle, if conditions permit, try to rescue the Syracuse people who fell into the water.’ Therefore, the Dionian Navy also extended a helping hand to them, but after getting on the ship, they would be tied up and taken into custody.

Some Syracuse people were close to the shore when they fell into the water, so they did not accept assistance, but swam desperately to the shore. In this regard, the Dionians would change their attitude and directly crush them by driving warships...

The entire battlefield cleaning and rescue work continued until dusk. The brilliance of the sunset dyed the warships on the sea orange, and Secretly issued the order to "return".

In the huge fleet of Dionians, the captured Syracuse warships were located in the center, and the Dionian warships were on the periphery. Although the sailors were tired, the joy of victory made their trumpets resound across the sea. In the melodious sound of flutes, they pushed and pulled the wooden oars vigorously, and the fleet slowly sailed northward...

Seclian looked back at the fierce battle field. The thrilling scene of his ship being almost hit by an enemy ship appeared in his mind, which made him feel excited at this moment. His gaze moved to the extreme distance, where the sky was connected to the sea, and it was vast and boundless...

A sense of pride rose in his heart and shouted to the captain excitedly: "From now on, we have the final say in this sea!"

In this naval battle, except for more than 40 three-layer oar warships led by Leptines, the other warships either sank or were captured.

The Dioria fleet had 23 crow warships sunk, more than a dozen were hit and damaged, and 68 Syracuse three-layer oar warships were captured, and nearly 10,000 Syracuse sailors were captured.

What made Dionysius most angry was that only more than 2,000 Syracuse heavy infantry sent by him returned, and most of the soldiers either died in battle or drowned in the sea. Less than a thousand captured by the Dionys fleet can be said to have not only lost the naval battle, but also lost the land battle. Of course, Dionys' First Legion also suffered more than 2,000 casualties.

………………………………

The army of Dionia did not stop when it arrived at Castellon. Chief General Amicles and the city-state senior officials were waiting in front of the wooden bridge built by Heraclid for Castellon by Little. They saw off for the army of Dionia who rushed to the battlefield. At the same time, more than 1,000 Castellon soldiers and 100 cavalrymen were sent to join the expedition, as the ally who were responsible for their responsibilities.

Although the Dionia army seized the time to rush, Davers still rushed to the wooden bridge to express his gratitude to Castellon's leadership, and then exchanged a few more greetings, and some potential unpleasantness dissipated in the laughter.

Since the First Legion went to the Dionysian fleet, the front of the entire team was led by the Second Legion. Although Amintas was brave in combat, as the commander of the Second Legion, he must be responsible for the safety of the entire legion soldiers at this moment. So after crossing the Trionto River, he increased the marching column to ten columns, and the middle column was light infantry. Although the Second Legion of Dionys had not yet hired mercenary cavalry to fight in Syracuse, Amintas did not take it lightly due to Davers' reminder.

In recent years, due to the extensive development of the Dionians, not only did the swamp disappear in large quantities, but it also began to transform into high-quality plains and its population increased dramatically. However, what the soldiers of the Legion today see the ruins of several villages next to the Avenue.

The sailors landed by the Syracuse Navy invaded the Alliance's territory so far! The soldiers of the Legion were surprised and angry at the enemy's atrocities: Fortunately, the Syracuse Navy was defeated in the previous naval battle, and it was impossible to endanger the territory of Dionia again, but there were still those damn mercenary cavalry!
