The captain of Z23 felt bitter too. He turned his head and said, "Admiral Taylor has orders. Those cannoneers were too accurate. They have to clean the toilets for a month. Then … those cooks in the kitchen, didn't they complain all day about how bitter it was for them to watch their brothers having sex while wearing a green hat? Now it's time for them to open fire! "
Who knew that even the cookhouse cooks would perform better than they should. Their hit rate was as high as 31% …
Many of the Horde's airships were made of wood. Some of the airships were still able to stay in the sky after being hit by the non-powered mechanisms. They became the light in the dark, guiding the way for the chefs.
Even the cooks had to be replaced.
Admiral Taylor was in a mess. "Don't tell me that the entire Horde fleet was destroyed by three airships?"
Fortunately, this worry was unnecessary. After being attacked for a full five minutes, the Horde fleet finally began to fight back amidst the curses of Moron Roar.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Continuous cannons sounded. The Horde cannoneers didn't care too much and just fired in the same direction.
In Admiral Taylor's eyes, the flashes of the cannons were like holy light of salvation. Before the cannonball even reached the patrol fleet, Taylor shouted in the comms, "You've all been hit! I repeat! Hook B Squadron, you've all been hit and are on fire. Leave the battle zone immediately. "
The captain of the flagship of the patrol fleet, Prince Eugen, rolled his eyes. "Did you guys hear that?"
Night artillery battles were the most important test of technology and training. Even within the Alliance, with the help of all kinds of advanced technology, as long as the distance was over 5000 meters, the hit rate would still not exceed 10%.
Not to mention the Horde cannoneers who had never been trained in night artillery battles.
Fortunately, even if the Horde wasn't strong, the Alliance's actors were strong!
Under the captain's orders, the prepared Alliance soldiers lit up the barrels of gunpowder they got from the museum.
Bang, bang, bang — The sound of the explosion was easily transmitted to the Horde fleet three kilometers away.
Then the Horde people were overjoyed. "Hit? Hahaha! Hit! "
The entire Horde fleet was in an uproar.
The scene they wanted to see appeared. The three Alliance warships burst into flames at the same time. The silhouette of the ship was clearly visible.
Under the watchful eyes of the Horde warriors, the three Alliance airships began to fall. They weren't fast, but they were falling away from the Horde's fleet.
In fact, the soldiers on the three Alliance warships were feeling bored. Traditional black gunpowder barrels could not penetrate Prince Eugen's 80mm armor. It was such a loud sound, but the armor only dented a little.
On the Horde's flagship, Garrus was not too happy. "The Alliance has already discovered it. There's no point in hiding it. Light the torch! Let [Hellscream] lead the way. Full speed ahead! "
This brave move won the cheers of the entire Horde fleet.
On the other side, Duque didn't want to watch anymore. "Should I say, Brainless Roar is indeed Brainless Roar? If the Alliance really needs to rely on sight to find you, then why did you light a fire in the middle of the night? "
Next to Duque, Vashj and Onyxia were both giggling.
"Are we going to watch it?" Vashj asked.
"The show has started. Let's continue watching! Send the order to Tyler to take it easy. " After Duque sent the order to Jaina through magic transmission, Duque was also discouraged. He felt a little bored. "Come, Onyxia, have a glass of tequila."
"Okay!" The black dragon girl crawled over on all fours …
On the other side, after receiving the order from the highest command, Tyler felt a headache. He had prepared a fleet of over a hundred warships. Now he realized that it was making a mountain out of a molehill.
But a few minutes ago, the Alliance had only lost three warships. It wasn't good for the Alliance to send too few airships, so they decided to reduce the number by half. Sixty warships charged over aggressively.
In order to let the Horde discover them in advance, they had to light a torch at the bow of the ship so that the Horde could discover them from ten kilometers away.
At this time, Garrus finally decided to transfer the best armored airships over to fight the Alliance to the death, and let the rest of the airships full of Horde soldiers leave in advance.
This time, the Alliance seemed to have learned their lesson. An hour later, more than sixty airships arrived. They lined up at a distance of five thousand meters, forming a three-dimensional trapezoid shape. They positioned their hulls horizontally and fired in the direction of the wind.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The continuous cannons of the Alliance fleet rang through the dark night.
The Horde could only see the Alliance's fleet light up, but they realized that not many cannons hit the Horde's warships. In total, the Horde's armored airships would be hit seven or eight times with one airship being blown up.
The Horde's new cannons were also gathered here. The range of the cannons was enough, and they were indeed the newer TNT cannons. However, most of these airships were modified second-hand airships that were smuggled from the Alliance through various channels before the war.
Firstly, the Horde couldn't produce these cannons, and secondly, they couldn't produce the cannons themselves either. It could be said that every time they fired, they would have one less. Before, no one was willing to pay, and they were even more unwilling to use live ammunition.
One could imagine the accuracy of the cannons.
Later, after some calculations, the Horde's fleet only fired two cannons that hit the Alliance's warships that night. One hit the side armor of the [Scharnhorst], and the other hit the front armor of the [Tirbitz]'s main cannon, and the cannons bounced off.
If the Alliance really wanted to fire, they would be able to kill almost every shot.
Unfortunately, General Taylor was also afraid. For tonight, he had prepared a large number of sawdust cannons, also known as salute cannons. Those things were just to make a noise. Of course, he had also prepared a large number of cannons for actual combat. The cannons were all painted with clear red markings. If there was no order, whoever used it would have their hands chopped off.
Even the cannons that landed in the middle of the night were often the [Type 3 Cannons] used to deal with small targets such as flying dragons.
The two sides fought for most of the night, giving people the feeling that it was two internet trolls fighting each other online, and no one could hurt the other. In the end, it was already 4: 30 in the morning, and it would soon be dawn.
Once dawn came, it would be very fake to maintain this accuracy. Taylor ordered his own ships to start getting hit. Hay and old blankets burned on the decks of the Alliance's airships. After a fierce fire, the Alliance's fleet finally withdrew ahead of time.
After that, looking at the number of 102 ships that had fallen, Taylor broke out in a cold sweat.
18.3%. This was the fall coefficient that was calculated after taking into account the level of the enemy's ships and calculating various factors.
With great suspicion, Taylor returned to Naxxramas. When he saw Duque, who was said to have traveled through time and space, he suddenly felt that he already knew the answer to everything.
