Papaldia Imperial Navy's 3rd Fleet Battleship Addis

”Enemy ship firing !!”

Despite our ship and the enemy ship still being more than 20 km apart, the Japanese warship fired.

The captain speaks to the deputy commander.

”They fired their guns at such a distance, what are they going to do? Threatening?”

”I don't understand at all. The enemy guns are too far away, even if they are longer than our range.”

I have a slight discomfort.

A sure feeling of death that you have never felt on the battlefield.

”A lot of rudders! I'll take evasive action just in case!”

At the command of Captain, the battleship Addis slowly turns.

Suddenly the ship shakes violently.

Explosion sound.

Various debris falls on the captain and deputy commander. Among them, there are human parts.

”Attack on the rear of the hull! A break occurs on the waterline!”

Addis struck on the left side of the hull opens a large breach near the waterline, and water flows into the ship.

”I ... I don't know!”

Addis begins to tilt due to sudden flooding.

“I don't have it anymore!

The captain's words are interrupted by intense light and sound.

A large number of explosives fell on the sloping ship, and the explosion caused the imperial battleship Addis to disappear from the world.

The 3rd Fleet of the Emperor Papardia The flagship Dios

”The battleship Addis is going down !!!! ... The enemy's attack turned out to be bombardment !! Range is over 20km !!”

Hit with just one shot! ! ! ”

”What ... what ... what? ... 20 km !? The range of the gun is more than 20 km !!!!

10 times as much as ours ...

And hit with just one shot! ?

Is the hit rate against the moving target 100 times as high as ours fired at a distance of 2km! ! ”

”Is the hit rate at 20km more than 100 times better than when I shot at 2km?

What happens if you compare at a distance of 2km? Well, I can not measure with one shot. ”

”Enemy guns are so powerful that they can sink a battleship with just one shot. Pure firepower may be more than just a perception!”

Executives despair for the pure surprise of the enemy's strength and the performance differences of ships that are too difficult to fight on a battleship.

Even during the debate, three battleships are already sinking with just one shot each.

”Soon 250 Dragon Knights will fly over the enemy.”

”I'm sorry ...”

Admiral Arkaon put hope on the attack by the dragoon knight.

◆◆◆

Papardia Empire Affiliation of the 3rd Fleet Dragon Knights

”I saw it!”

250 knights of the Dragon Knights, guided by magic from the 3rd Fleet Command, recognize their shadows on the horizon.

They are so big and fast that they have never seen them before, and their tension reaches its peak.

The enemy ship fires and sinks the friendly forces, even though it is nearly 20 km away from the friendly forces.

It seems that the “light arrows” that fly at such tremendous speed and land accurately are not used.

The Ryuzu who have returned to Japan has already been sunk.

We have no choice but to land on the sea after Wyvern Road is exhausted.

The dragon knight commander, Dairos, is determined.

”All troops! Defeat the Japanese troops!”

”Wow !!”

We are the strongest knights of the Dragon, believe in ourselves and they head.

Approximately 250 knights of the 3rd Fleet of the Emperor Papardia attacked the Aegis system ship Kirishima of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, which had attacked while firing.

”What !? The enemy ship exploded !?”

In the eyes of Dairos, the Japanese ship seemed to explode on its own.

However, the next moment, when you see a light arrow launched at a furious speed above the sky, you realize that it is an attack directed at them.

”Is there an anti-aircraft too ?! A guided magic light bullet will come !!!!

Each dragon knight spreads in the sky.

The arrow of light shuffled at an incredible speed, landed on a dragon knight flying diagonally behind Dairos, and smashed its body into fine-grained dust that could not be retained with the Wyvern.

”That's too fast! Can you avoid that kind of thing !?”

”Damn! Damn!”

Various voices flow by magic.

The Knights of the Ryukyus head toward the enemy ship at speeds of 300 km / h or more, but they feel terribly slow and are far from firing range.

Further tragedy jumps into Dairos' eyes.

Not only the boat in the front row, but also from behind, further behind, and from invisible positions, light flies at a furious speed.

And they do not deviate from each other, and accurately destroy the Dragon Knight one after another, without duplication of targets.

”Ore !!!! Monster monster !!!!!!!!”

What is that?

We are the Dragon Knights, which are said to be among the prosperous main forces of the powerful Parpaldia Empire. It is said that once it jumps out, it will destroy seven troops, and it is the feared third civilization's strongest unit.

Such a dragon is now falling like a fly due to a Japanese attack.

Life is lost as if a friend who shared many battlefields, a friend who had difficulty with hard training, and a close friend from a young age mockery their efforts in life.

The blood and meat that have fallen apart are falling like rain.

”Cheap !!!!!!!”

At the next moment, the ship-to-air missile lands on Dairos, Commander of the Dragon Knight, and his consciousness disappears beyond the void.

Flagship Dios

”Rii ... The Knights of the Dragoon have been wiped out.

No damage to enemy ships. ”

The silenced bridge, everyone was desperate and began to understand that there was no way to do it.

”Battleships Martas, Regile, Kamio Rouge, Tarras hit enemy guns ...”

Only the voice of the desperate correspondent continues to echo on the bridge.

Even that long-time lion, Admiral 3rd Fleet, Arcaon, is sweating on his forehead and silent.

The strategy planned by the brain of the imperial nation Martal would have been effective if it was a powerful opponent.

However, isn't it too foul to have a long-range cannon out of 100 rounds and ammunition that can sink in one shot?

Operation becomes completely meaningless, and the sinking continues.

Enemy guns have a range of 20km or more, are almost 100 rounds, and are extremely fast to load.

It takes more than 40 minutes at maximum speed when trying to get closer to the range of the Imperial magic gun.

If you use the speed relative to the enemy, you will be able to reach faster, but you should not make sweet expectations on the battlefield.

It is impossible to avoid such accurate fire for more than 40 minutes.

”……Fuck!!”

Arcaon decides.

In the first place, there is no way that the imperial lord will surrender or withdraw with the strength of the Imperial City beyond the eyes and nose.

There are no options from the beginning.

”All forces, assault the Japanese invading !!!! Show me the will of the Imperial Navy!”

The magic stone of each ship shines.

Receives the wind caused by the magic stone that causes the wind called the wind god's tears, fills the sail, and heads for the enemy's huge ship at the maximum speed and accelerates.

However, allied ships continue to sink.

The Imperial Fleet, which spreads thinly like, the Japanese escort fleet invades as if a stick pierces the surface.

Papardia Imperial ships within a radius of 10 km of the line passed by the Japanese escort groups are shattered and sunk one after another, and only the remains of battleships float on the sea after the Japanese troops have passed.

The 3rd fleet wrapped in despair.

”The Japanese fleet is in front of my ship!”

The Guardian Fleet of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force directly faces Dios, the flagship of the Imperial Empire's third main fleet, the flagship Super F-class 150-class battleship Dios.

That distance will soon reach 20km.

”I will turn left and declare that I will keep a distance from the Japanese fleet !!!! The flagship cannot lose its command ability !!”

1 One of the executives escalates to Admiral Alcaon.

”Nan! Keep the course as it is, the imperial flagship must not pull!”

”Yes, but !!”

”The main gun of the enemy ship, facing my ship!”

”Admiral! Change course quickly !!!!”

”Nan !!”

Arcaon barks.

At that time, a watchman reports in a screaming voice.

”Enemy fire !!!!”

Tension runs to everyone.

”A shell is coming! Lots of steering!”

The captain barks and the pilots operate.

The ship begins to change course slowly, so frustratingly.

Flash-.

Explosion sound.

The ship shakes violently.

Arcaon shakes violently, hits his head against a pillar, and fresh blood flows from his forehead.

”Status report !!”
