When he issued the order, he asked the flagship to turn the hull immediately and as an example, he accelerated towards the Deonia fleet.

After seeing the warships around them, they quickly made corresponding actions, but for the Carthage warships far apart, they first heard the retreating warships, and soon changed to the attacking trumpet. These two completely opposite orders puzzled them.

This is a newly formed fleet. Although most of the crew survived the previous Carthage fleet after the storm, it has been reorganized after all. One of the biggest problems is that although Admika once expressed strong opposition, with the support of the Senate, Annobas mixed the survivors of the previous Carthage fleet and the Iberian fleet and allocated them to each new warship. In this way, all warships are commanded by the navy commander, and there is no independent Iberian fleet anymore.

So when the new fleet rushed into battle without sufficient running-in, they had not yet developed good obedience to the new fleet commander (Annobas is unfamiliar to the Iberian crew), and their daily patrols and navigation were not visible, but when the crisis came, the problem was exposed: some warships were hesitating whether to execute the subsequent orders.

And just when the Carthage fleet was inconsistent due to two orders and chaos occurred, the attack of the 3rd Fleet of Dionia continued to show its power. The crow warship smashed the shell of the circular array like a hammer, and then rushed in were fast three-layer oar warships. Their narrow hulls quickly shuttled through the narrow internal space of the circular array, as flexible as swimming fish. However, after discovering the fighter plane, they turned into ferocious sharks, squeezing the oars of the enemy ship and smashing their hulls, making the already chaotic Carthage even more chaotic...

At this time of battle, some Carthage warships were not good at seeing each other and began to withdraw from the battlefield.

Speaking of which, the new Carthage fleet had 190 warships. After arriving in Sardinia, it merged into 40 warships originally belonging to the Phoenician city-state of Sardinia. The total number of warships reached 230. After Annobas formulated this plan, it almost divided the new fleet: In order to ensure that the warships led by Admika were responsible for ambushing the far sea, the warships commanded by Admika could withstand the attack of the warships of the Dionian warships, forming a complete melee, and could persist until the fleet he led himself was able to catch up.

Come, and attacks on both sides (because Annobas believes that if he arrives at the battlefield too early, the Dionian fleet, which has not yet entered the battle, will likely escape early when he sees bad experiences, resulting in little results), so the 110 warships he allocated to Admika were all Carthage warships, and the 40 Phoenician warships with weaker combat power were included in his fleet. He believes that when he has a great advantage, there is no need to worry about the combat effectiveness of the Phoenician warships.

But the current situation is that the fleet led by Annobas is in a passive state of being beaten. Faced with the fierce attack of the Dionian warships, several Phoenician warships chose to obey the previous order of the flagship, and seemed unheard of the orders for attacks that followed, and they retreated.

Their retreat also affected the fighting spirit of nearby Phoenician warships, and they retreated one after another, causing the entire Carthage fleet to be difficult to maintain, not to mention attacks, even defenses became difficult to maintain.

After Annobas learned about this situation through his lookout hand, he was so angry that he stamped his feet and had no choice.

"Sir, let's retreat quickly. If you don't leave, you won't be able to leave!" The captain persuaded anxiously, because at this time, the Dionian warship appeared on the seas on both sides of the Carthage flagship. The situation was slightly better in front of it because Annobas personally supervised the battle. If this continues, the flagship will be cut off from its way back and be surrounded.

"...Retreat..." Annobas said dejectedly, sitting on the deck covering his face, not daring to face this fact: as a veteran of the Navy, he hadtily arranged the wrong formation in a situation where he suddenly encountered an enemy attack, and then repeatedly changed the order, resulting in the battle that originally had the advantage turned into a defeat...

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"The enemy has retreated! The enemy has retreated! He shouted excitedly on the mast.

Midolades' face was not relaxed, and he asked anxiously: "How far is the Carthage fleet behind us?

"Only about three hundred meters!"

"Order all warships not to stop, speed up and move forward! Remember, don't stop!" Midorades shouted loudly.

"Captain, three green flags have been raised on the flagship!" The stern lookout hand of a crow warship located in the front of the fleet shouted.

"What?! Green Flag!" The captain frowned. The words of the green flag navy were "accelerate forward" (When the Dionian Navy originally formulated the flag language, green represents spring, everything revived, the glacier thawed, and rushing forward. The opposite is the white flag, which represents retreat. The Dionian Navy did not surrender). This means that they would let go of the Carthage warship in front of the panic and was passing by the front of their ship. Although they were unwilling to accept it, the order must be obedient. The captain sighed helplessly and said, "Charge speed, go forward directly! Remove the crow suspension bridge!"

All warships of the 3rd Fleet were executing similar orders, which accelerated the entire fleet again, which forced the Annobas fleet to accelerate its escape, and even in panic, they could occasionally see each other's collision in order to escape.

When these Carthage warships, who were slow to travel due to the injury, saw the quickly approaching Dionys warships, their souls emerged. But a miracle happened. The Dionys warships seemed to have not seen them, passed by them and headed forward.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Admika regrets it.

He led 110 warships to ambush in the distant seas under the order of Annobas. The crew drove the warships and bumped in the wind and waves, waiting tremblingly for the Deonia fleet to take the bait. As a result, after waiting for most of the day, the merchant ship who served as bait reported that the Deonia fleet had been chasing them halfway and returned.

Admika was disappointed. While notifying the fleet to return, he sent the Clippers to investigate with a glimmer of hope.

As a result, the Clippers rewarded: the Dionia fleet was intercepted by the fleet led by Annobas.

Admika immediately turned from disappointment to excitement, and he ordered the fleet to accelerate.

Sure enough, he saw the Dionian fleet ahead not long after, but at this time he did not order the fleet to launch an attack immediately, but instead slowed down the fleet's advancement and formed a formation.

He had considered this: First, in the naval battle at Seedium a few months ago, the Iberian fleet he personally led was defeated by the Dionys fleet and had some understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Dionys fleet. At this time, the Dionys fleet, which had just begun to fight with the Annobas fleet, was fully capable of splitting up some warships, turning around to block his attack, and causing great losses to the fleet he led.

Second, although he has now been under the command of Annobas, he is not convinced. He hopes that the fleet led by Annobas will suffer more losses in this war, and he will suffer very little, which will help increase his prestige in the new fleet and increase his voice.

Therefore, after Ademika let all warships unfold and form a double column formation, he kept his troops still, watched the development of the battle situation ahead, and was also wary of the possible escape of the Dionian fleet.

But he never expected that the commander of the Dionian fleet would be so decisive that he would ignore his threat and allow all warships to participate in the attack.

He didn't expect that the fleet led by Annobas would perform so poorly. The battle lasted only about 10 minutes and was unable to support it.

After Ademika roughly understood the situation ahead through her lookout hand, she had to immediately issue an offensive order.

The warships were allowed to reach extreme speed from stillness and rushed to the rear of the Dionian fleet by nearly three miles. The Admika fleet took about seven or eight minutes. In order to allow the Annobas fleet to try its best to entangle the opponent, Admika also asked the flagship soldiers of the Simao to blow out the attacking military horn with the greatest strength.

But all efforts finally proved to be futile. By the time they arrived at the battlefield, the Dionian fleet had already passed through the Carthage formation and sailed to the distance at full speed. Only the damaged Carthage warships were left. The Carthage warships, which were cut by most of the sailors, were scattered on the sea. Many Carthage sailors floated on the sea and shouted for help at the fleet, which became an obstacle to the advance of the Admika fleet.

Of course, not all the Dionian warships fled in time. Seven or eight Dionian warships either slowed down due to damage to the hull, or failed to withdraw the fleet infantry in time, and had to spend more time waiting, or because the enemy ships suddenly appeared in front of them and could not dodge and had to bump into them, so they could not rush out quickly... In short, they had not yet been able to escape from the battlefield and landed far behind the Dionian fleet.

The Admika fleet warships chased after them. Seeing that they could not escape, the Dionian warships turned around and fought. Even though they were brave, they fought with less and more, and the Carthaginians quickly won.

During this process, the Third Fleet of Dionia did not turn around to rescue, but accelerated and moved away.

Looking at the fleet of Dionia that had disappeared in the distance, and then looking at the devastated battlefield around him, Admika hesitated for a moment. When it was impossible to catch up with the fleet of Dionia, he decided to rescue his compatriots first.

At the same time, he also sent the Clippers forward to investigate the movements of the Dionia fleet, and asked the Clippers to find the fleeing Carthage warships and let them return to the fleet.
