    Chapter 16 The Battle of Deep Water Bay (4)

    The Brant fleet in the deep water port is in a war priority state. On the four warships that were urgently assembled at this time, the commander of the Brant fleet was having a heated discussion.

    "Damn it, when did the Elante family have so many battleships? It seems that those people in the intelligence department have lived in vain."

    "Yes! Hundreds of ships! Although we have more than 60 warships stationed here, the actual number of sailors is less than 1,000, and we can only operate up to 30 warships. Knowing that Elantra has such a powerful force, I will never  I will allow my sailors and sailors to go home on vacation."

    "Stop talking. We have more than 1,000 people stationed here. The most people we can see now are more than 600. The others have gone to that brothel to fool around. In 10 minutes, only more than 200 people gathered around us.  We can barely launch a large flagship and three heavy-duty paddle sailing ships. If we can keep this main force of the navy, then I believe that Duke Brant will never punish us too harshly."

    "Yeah! Damn it, let's figure out where to escape from."

    "What about Duke Brant's younger brother, Baron Brant? Should we just abandon him and run away?"

    "Forget about that fat pig. If he hadn't often deducted our military pay, we wouldn't have been disliked by our subordinates, so that the warships were often unable to be repaired, and the sailors often complained and violated discipline. If the military pay was sufficient, I would never  Get those sailors and sailors off their posts."

    "Yes! Our navy is mobile and easy to destroy. Bulat's Waterdeep City is immovable. As long as we retain the main force of the fleet, we will definitely have a chance to fight against it in the future."

    "Well! Ignore the culprit who made us passive. Let's quickly discuss where to escape."

    Several Admirals Brandt spoke around the map.

    "Let's attack the ships in the south first! The coastline in the south is wider and we can escape from the south."

    "No, there are rebellions in the Senvi Hills in the south, and the ports in the south are very unsafe. After going to the south, it will be difficult for us to return to the Dolphin Bay Strait, the center of the kingdom, through the blockade of the Elant fleet."

    "Why don't you go south to the north? The coastline to the east is basically facing the northeast. There is also a fleet blockade to the east. As long as the blockade fleet holds us for a few minutes, we will not be able to leave at all."

    "Okay, everyone, stop arguing. Although there are rebels in the south and there are very few seaports, we have no choice now but to escape to the south."

    In the end, the admiral made the final decision, and the four ships set sail and rowed south before the arrival of Elantra's navy.

    "Baron, the flagship and part of the main force of Duke Brant's Eastern Fleet in the south have escaped from the west, a total of 4 ships." Ham stood on the Hyland and looked at the situation in the west, and quickly reported.

    "Lord Baron, as long as we lead the main force of the Hailan flagship to intercept them, we will definitely be able to intercept them."

    Lin Fenghan stared to the west and thought for a while, then said seriously: "Order to go down, there is no need to pursue them. Our most important task in this battle is to occupy Deep Water Bay. As long as we block the waterway from Deep Water Bay to the Elante Islands, they will not be able to return in a short time.  "The concentration of naval forces in the central area of ??Dolphin Bay and Brant will not have much impact on us."

    "Our flagship Hailan and Hailan 1, Hailan 2 to Hailan 10 all carry a large number of army troops. Other fleets also have very important supplies. They cannot be pursued at will. Let them go this time.  I will deal with them next time."

    "Ram, please tell me the size of the ships in Brant's Eastern Fleet."

    "Yes!" Ham nodded in admiration and said seriously: "Duke Brant's Eastern Fleet is parked here, with 21 small warships ranging from 10 meters to 20 meters. There are 18 warships ranging from 20 meters to 30 meters, and 30 meters to 30 meters.  There are 14 40-meter warships. There are 7 warships between 40 meters and 60 meters. Among them, 4 large warships have escaped, and there are still 3 large warships left."

    "Very good, the general of the Eastern Fleet has led his men, horses and ships out of Deep Water Bay, so the warships parked in Deep Water Bay are basically ours. There are also some merchant ships and fishing boats belonging to Brandt,  It's really great." Lin Fenghan commented with a big smile.

    At this time, in the main city of Waterdeep City, Baron Bratt was called out from the Flower House banquet by the communications officer and gathered in the meeting hall of the main city with many officials.

    Emerton, the resident general of Waterdeep City, said with a serious face to Baron Bratt, who had just arrived at the meeting hall: "Your Excellency Lord Bratt, our port was attacked by a large fleet of the Elant family. Admiral Haifei of the Eastern Fleet  I have already taken his only on-site personnel to escape towards the south. I have already disembarked.An order was issued to close the surrounding city gates.  "

    "Currently, our Deep Water Bay port is in chaos. Please give us your order here."

    Baron Brat nervously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked tremblingly: "The enemy is from Elantra? Isn't it incredible?"

    ¡°That coward Hailton actually escaped with his troops regardless of us. When I get to my brother, I will definitely file a complaint against him.¡±

    "How many battleships and people do the young Baron Elantra have now?"

    ¡­¡­

    General Emerton said in a low voice: "There are about more than 100 warships, most of which are small warships. As for the specific number of people, they have just landed now, and we can't calculate it."

    "Damn it." Baron Bratt slammed the table angrily and yelled: "Halton is such a bastard. The huge Eastern Fleet didn't even know when the enemy had so many warships, and it was caught off guard.  The entire army was nearly wiped out and fled in panic."

    "And you, you are just a bunch of cowards. As long as you can resist them on the coast, we will have time to mobilize our troops and destroy them without suffering such huge losses."

    ¡­¡­

    Emerton and the others frowned and lowered their heads in silence. They waited for a while for Baron Bratt to finish venting, and then said: "Lord City Lord, the enemy came from where the sun appears. According to the lookout's report, they moved the entire hull up and down.  They were all covered with white canvas, concealed by the fog and sunshine, so that our personnel regarded them as white clouds. We only discovered this situation when they were more than two nautical miles closer to us."

    ¡°Due to the urgency of the time and the sparse personnel on duty in the fleet, most of the small private fishing boats and naval generals chose to escape. Our security forces at the port also instinctively followed many merchants and fishermen into the city.¡±

    When Brat heard this, he became angry and shouted: "Coward, traitor, you are just trying to justify your cowardly behavior."

    Emerton took a deep breath and said with a livid face: "Okay! This is our garrison's quibbling, but our numbers in the external ports are too small and we are simply unable to resist the attack of the Elantra fleet."

    "Now after withdrawing from the city, they have at least preserved our strength. We have 2,000 troops stationed in the Deepwater Port. Together with the city security guards, noble personal guards, and militia, we have at least 3,000 people to protect Deepwater City.  More than enough.¡±

    "As long as we protect Waterdeep City, the enemy will retreat sooner or later, and victory will still belong to us."

    Bulat lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded with some satisfaction and said, "You have a point. You will direct the next battle. You must protect my property and not let Waterdeep suffer any losses."

    Emerton softened his expression and saluted seriously: "I'll try my best!"

    Elantra¡¯s Pioneer Kamikaze Express quickly blocked the surrounding waters, and more than forty Pioneer Marines rushed to the coast.  We put on ten soldiers and left two to greet the ships, while the other three hundred or so went to the harbor lighthouse, warehouses, and roads to occupy.

    "Hey! Why didn't I see anyone?"

    "Yes! Why didn't I see Brandt's defensive soldiers? There can't be any conspiracy!"

    "What a fright! Everyone, hurry up and complete the task and open the way for our main fleet and army."

    ¡­¡­

    "Wow! I saw someone."

    "Don't hit me, uncle. I'm just a fisherman. I just work part-time to sell some fish."

    "It's a fisherman. Go inside the house and wait. Don't try to run around, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."

    "yes!"

    "yes!"

    ¡­¡­

    Elantra's vanguard troops occupied most of the port without any effort.

    Whoosh!

    Bows and arrows suddenly shot out from above the lighthouse, and Elantra's vanguard infantry instinctively hid towards the eaves.

    "Report to the captain that there are people in the military camp and lighthouse, requesting main support."

    "clear!"

    "Brothers, follow me."

    More than a dozen Elante soldiers held shields and pushed towards the entrance of the military camp under the lighthouse.

    "Hey!"

    "Roar!"

    "Hi!"

    "ha!"

    ¡­¡­

    The order to retreat was not received inside the lighthouse. The Brandt soldiers who abided by military discipline stubbornly resisted, and the resisters' gates were firmly blocked, preventing the Elantra soldiers from breaking through.

    Experience on November 4, 920, 10.40.After more than 30 minutes of landing, the main force of Elantra's fleet successfully landed in Deepwater Bay. A total of 3,600 army troops, 1,500 navy troops, and nearly 5,000 people arrived on the land of Deepwater City.

    The remaining ten Brant soldiers in the lighthouse barracks were very stubborn. They had to surrender only after the Elant army gathered more than 100 people to overthrow the gate of the barracks.

    This group of people were beaten up by the furious Elantra Marines, and the team leader was pulled in front of Lin Fenghan.

    "Lord Baron, these people are so stubborn. In order to subdue them, more than twenty of our brothers were shot several times and were unfortunately bruised. This boy is the leader of that group of young boys."

    "Oh!" Lin Fenghan looked at this young man in his twenties with short blond hair, a resolute face, and a tall build in surprise, and said with admiration: "What is your name? What is your position in Brandt's army?  Why didn¡¯t you make a wise choice to escape with that group of people? Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s overestimating your capabilities for more than 10 people to be hostile to more than 10,000 of us?¡±

    "There are more than 10,000 people, and you actually have so many soldiers here." The young man with a black head looked at Lin Fenghan in surprise, rioting and trying to escape from the control of the two people behind him.

    "Yes, young man, I want to know why you are doing this? What is the relationship between Duke Brant and you? Why are you so desperate for your life." Lin Fenghan asked without blinking.

    The young man looked at Lin Fenghan unconvinced and said: "My name is Lu Mengton. You look younger than me. Why do you call me young man? Duke Brant has nothing to do with me. The reason why he is so desperate is  Because I feel that as a soldier, I have to stick to my post until I am unable to resist, and then I am forced to surrender. I am worthy of my profession."

    "Lu Mengton, that's very good. You are worthy of your status as a soldier. I want to know what kind of family you come from and whether you can join my army." Lin Fenghan asked with appreciation.

    "I am the son of a blacksmith in Waterdeep City. Most of the people in Waterdeep City are related to me. It is impossible for me to join your army to invade my compatriots." Lu Mengton looked at Lin Fenghan with contempt and said.

    "Very good! Son of a commoner, someone will bring him down here and keep him under guard first. Next, we will attack Waterdeep City."

    "The time God has given us is running out." Lin Fenghan raised his head and squinted at the sun behind him, which was about to rise to the center, and said seriously.

    "yes!"
