Chapter 1497 Headshot is a skill (extra update for accumulating 1,000 monthly tickets)
Although the overall situation has been decided now, it does not matter who wins or loses. The scale of this wave of Patton's fleet is indeed not small. The forces assembled by fifteen clippers cannot be dealt with in a short time.
If the remaining enemy forces choose to fight to the death, then the Great Zhou will also have to pay a heavy price in casualties.
Considering this, it is still necessary to persuade them to surrender.
If successful, they will be able to reduce casualties and capture more cheap labor.
Even if persuading them to surrender fails, it would be good to use this incident to hit the morale of the other side.
The soldiers of the Patton Navy on the opposite side were obviously not stupid. They knew that in this naval battle, they were at an all-round disadvantage.
At this moment, accompanied by the slogans of "The enemy general is dead, surrender and no killing!" echoing among the ships, many soldiers of the Patton Navy have already noticed the head hung on the flagpole of their main flagship.
"Major. It's really Major!!"
The Patton soldiers who recognized the identity of the head couldn't help but scream, making the scene even more chaotic.
Seeing the opportunity, the Great Zhou troops shouted the slogan "The enemy general is dead, surrender and no killing!" even louder.
Many Patton soldiers were obviously shaken, but at the same time, many of them had grim looks on their faces and had extreme thoughts.
"What are you afraid of?! We will fight them! At worst..."
Before he could finish his words, there was a slight "bang" sound, and the sound stopped abruptly. The Patton soldier was shot in the head on the spot! The hot blood mixed with brain matter splashed directly onto the faces of the surrounding Patton soldiers.
Their expressions became dull for a moment.
In this battle, the matchlock guns of the Great Zhou had claimed the lives of many Patton soldiers, but headshots were a technical job.
In addition, the accuracy of the matchlock gun itself is relatively limited, making the probability of its appearance even lower.
But once it appears, the visual impact is absolutely maximum.
During this time, on the deck of their Great Zhou Ship No. 7, Bai Tu calmly handed the matchlock in his hand to the personal soldier beside him.
Although he is an extraordinary wizard, don't forget that he also has three stars in bravery and endurance. In his early years, he even used himself as a fierce general.
If a real fight breaks out, ordinary soldiers will be no match for him.
After the matchlock gun was sent to the volcanic island, Bai Tu quickly became interested in this new weapon and even showed considerable talent.
Putting aside his two identities as a superb wizard and the commander-in-chief of the Great Zhou Navy, he is still a sharpshooter! The Patton soldiers on the opposite side, who had just risen up a little will to resist, were strangled in the cradle by Bai Tu's headshot, as if to tell all Patton soldiers that this is the fate of stubborn resistance!
There are still people resisting, but they are no longer a force to be reckoned with.
Bai Tu's efficient tactics hastened the end of this naval battle.
There was an officer at the Hundred Refining Realm level on the opposite side, who was suspected to be the commander-in-chief of the opposite side. He was besieged and killed by their soldiers.
When Bai Tu found out about this, it was already after the war.
Bai Tu didn't feel sorry for not capturing the other party alive.
Those who can be persuaded to surrender will naturally surrender once they see that the situation is not right.
As for those who choose to fight to the death in extreme situations, even if they are captured alive, they will never surrender and will be killed.
In fact, killing them would save them trouble.
After all, in this expedition state, it is still quite troublesome to guard a warrior in the Hundred Refinements Realm.
Compared with the previous encounter with Charlie's small fleet, the Patton fleet they faced this time was almost three times larger, so the gains were also greater.
Apart from the nine enemy ships that were forcibly sunk in the shortest possible time in order to secure victory, the remaining six ships, although they had varying degrees of damage, were also successfully taken as trophies by them!
As long as it is repaired, it will be almost a ready-made warship and can be put into use immediately.
As a result, the number of warships in their front-line fleet will easily exceed the twenty mark!
Bai Tu clearly realized that the more they fought, the richer they became.
Of course, having warships is one thing, but in order to form effective combat power, they also need to equip these warships with sufficient crew members and soldiers.
This is undoubtedly a troublesome thing for the front-line fleet at this moment.
When they first came out, the staff must have been well-equipped, and there would not be enough space for more.
In this battle, in order to force the enemy to stay, although statistics have not been made yet, Bai Tu estimates that the casualties will probably be considerable.
The troops were lost, but the number of warships increased. How could they find more crew members and soldiers to deploy the extra warships? However, they had just won a battle, so this problem of affecting morale should be put aside for now and discussed later.
At the same time, on the tropical island, the prisoners who were carrying wood in the beach area began to become absent-minded from the moment the alarm sounded.
Under the threat of Kara, although they all acted very honest on the surface, they were all expecting that the fleet of the Badon Empire could directly destroy the fleet of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and then drive all the way to here! In this way, they can all be saved.
When the time comes, they will definitely hang that damn woman up and beat her!
Thinking of this, many prisoners of war could not help but secretly glance at the sea while praying continuously.
It was not known whether their prayers had worked, but ships began to appear at the end of their sight.
During this period, the Da Zhou troops responsible for guarding the camp undoubtedly noticed the situation at sea and entered a state of alert at the first moment.
But soon, a pterosaur rider flew back quickly over the sea, and then shouted excitedly towards the camp area...
"Our Great Zhou fleet completely destroyed the enemy fleet, sank nine enemy ships, and captured six enemy ships! A great victory!!!"
The entire camp was instantly engulfed in revelry! Then, no one knew who started shouting first...
"Long live the emperor! Long live the Great Zhou!!"
Soon, the surrounding Great Zhou soldiers followed suit and shouted.
Instantly, the cheers of "Long live the emperor! Long live the Great Zhou!" resounded throughout the entire area!
At this moment, in stark contrast to the Great Zhou soldiers who were in ecstasy were undoubtedly the prisoners of war who were still immersed in hope the previous second.
When they heard the news, they instantly turned pale, as if they had fallen from heaven to hell. The drastic change of emotions in a short period of time, coupled with the long-term hunger, made many prisoners of war turn black and faint on the spot.
At the same time, Charlie, who was imprisoned in the camp, apparently heard the cheers outside, and his whole face was full of disbelief.
As for the Great Zhou's fleet, he had indeed witnessed with his own eyes how powerful it was.
But even so, he did not expect that the fleet consisting of 15 ships of their Patton Empire would be completely destroyed!
