Chapter 352
Stromgarde nominally controls the entire coastline of the Arathi Highlands, but whether their naval combat power is capable of doing so has been questioned, after all, this newly formed army has not yet experienced the baptism of war.

Who knows if it's the mule or the horse that didn't pull out the yo?

There is a saying that goes well, how can you allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch!
If you want to test the combat power of the navy, you must find an opponent for them to fight, and the candidate for this opponent is really easy to find. Isn't there one in Fadil Bay not far from Stromgarde?
The Blackwater Bandit is the target chosen by Leo and Scarlett.

Fadil Bay is too close to Stromgarde, and the Blackwater bandits are not safe masters. Both Leo and Scarlett are very worried about them. Who knows if these guys will suddenly go crazy and attack Stromgarde? harbor?
It is better to strike first, and to suffer later.Instead of waiting for these bandits to come and cause trouble, it's better to take the initiative to knock on the door.

Two days before Scarlett's coronation day, a navy quietly set off from the harbor of Stromgarde in the dark, and no one except Scarlett and Leo knew where they went.

If all goes well, I'll be able to get back before Scarlett's coronation is complete, just in time for her coronation gift with a victory.

Leo, sitting on Pelishion's head, thought so.

The dracolich used its illusion ability to hide itself, secretly followed the Stromgarde navy, and set off with them.

Although this battle is to be won in the end, it is also a purpose to test the combat power of the navy, and the method of testing is to let them fight the black water bandits with real knives and guns.

"We have now reached the reefs of Fadil Bay, and the night is getting dark, which is a good time for us to cross here." A general gestured to his companion wearing a magic robe, who chanted a spell to send a basic The Eye of Errog was summoned, and then the fist-sized eyeball entered the sea to find the way for the ship.

Entering the hidden reefs, if you don't pay attention, you will run aground on the rocks, and the ship will be destroyed if you are serious. Fortunately, this time, the Summoner Legion, which has not yet formally formed an army, has sent some warlocks to accompany the army. It is not surprising that there will be a fleet with them. Difficult situation in the reef group.

Warlock's Eye of Kilrogg is very good for exploring the way. This little green eyeball can fly into the sky and dive. It is still invisible and has night vision ability. As long as you are careful, you don't have to be afraid of being discovered by the enemy. The disadvantage is that the warlock must concentrate on using it, and their own safety protection is much lower.

With Warlock's Pathfinder, the Stromgarde navy passed through the reefs very smoothly, and none of the nearly twenty large ships and hundreds of small boats touched the reefs. At the height of the month, the blackwater bandits in Fadil Bay were sleeping soundly , the Stromgarde navy has quietly arrived.

"A bandit is a bandit, a mob who thinks they can sit back and relax with the natural protection of an underwater reef? Let's use your heads as the first stepping stone for my Stromgarde navy."

The general of the water army ruthlessly gave the order to attack. The shrill bugle sound tore through the tranquility of the night, and beams of light illuminated the sky.

boom!boom!boom! ...

The roar of the magic cannon resounded throughout Fadil Bay, and the first salvo of hundreds of magic cannons stunned the blackwater bandits who were living the nightlife in the bay.

Boom boom boom...

The second round of volleys followed, and the robbers finally realized what had happened.

"Enemy attack!"

Enemy attack, what a strange word, a situation that has never been encountered since the establishment of the Blackwater Bandits actually happened tonight.

What the blackwater bandits settled in Fadil Bay was not just the natural protective belt of the underwater reef outside the bay, but more importantly, there was no powerful navy in the vicinity.

Although Stromgarde is building a port recently and has established a navy, who takes him seriously when a newly formed navy is still in training?The sea is no joke, a group of sailors who have never even been out to sea, and black water bandits who have been rampant for many years don't take him seriously at all.

Not to mention the loose and undisciplined Blackwater bandits, even their master behind the scenes, the Blackwater conglomerate, did not expect Scarlett to be so bold as to let the navy sail out of the port for the first time to attack Fadil Bay.

But it just happened.

In fact, many people have overlooked one point. Although Stromgarde did not build a port before, they also have naval experience. You must know that the Kingdom of Theramore was their territory before, and they used the power of the Lothar family to win over some unsuccessful sailors. Officers can still do it, just like Binder who is now commanding this navy.

With an experienced general leading the army, it is naturally impossible for anything to go wrong, and besides, Leo is watching in secret, so why doesn't Scarlett dare to let them out to fight?
Aren't surprises and surprises the way to victory?

Judging from the current battle situation, everything is going very smoothly.

After the third salvo of the Stromgarde navy, the Blackwater bandits swarmed towards the port, trying to enter the port's fortifications to resist.

Not directly defeated, these black water bandits are not vulnerable.

Leo overlooked the entire battlefield from a high altitude. It is not bad that the blackwater bandits were not defeated by the sudden attack. The resistance of these bandits can just test the true combat power of the water army.

After the fourth round of salvo, sporadic beams of light shot out from the port that had been bombarded all the time. This was the prelude to the Blackwater bandits' counterattack.

I took the initiative and want to fight back?

Binder's face was full of confidence. Twenty large ships in the fleet bombarded the port with a volley of magic cannons. Under their cover, nearly a hundred small ships in the fleet had already landed.The thousands of sailors who came ashore were divided into teams of 50 people, and they went to the fortifications of the port respectively.

When the Blackwater bandits hurried towards the port, they found that groups of soldiers in neat armor had already seized these places by themselves, and the Blackwater bandits could vaguely see them through the light of the magic cannon. The red emblem on the opponent's armor.

It is the emblem of the Kingdom of Arathor!
These raiders are the army of Stromgarde!
The Blackwater bandits couldn't believe it, but the recruits from Stromgarde who only practiced near the port successfully attacked us?

These guys were still playing with mud on land when we were criss-crossing the sea, and they dared to sneak up on us without us going to trouble them!

Feeling insulted, the Blackwater bandits were furious.

They rushed forward with clamor, and what greeted them was a round of enthusiastic arrow rain.

Not all the sailors in Stromgarde are melee fighters, a third of them are archers.

After the rain of arrows, the Blackwater bandits who rushed forward suffered a lot of casualties, but these injuries did not make the Blackwater bandits retreat. Instead, they became more fierce after seeing the blood.Those who set foot on the road of piracy were all outlaws. Although they were poorly disciplined, they fought with such bravery that even veterans might not be able to match.

Against the rain of arrows, the Blackwater bandits rushed up. The injured beasts were very dangerous, and the injured outlaws were even more dangerous. As soon as the two sides fought against each other, the number of casualties of the Stromgarde navy suddenly increased.

The Blackwater bandits attack very fiercely. Often you slash them with a knife but they will not dodge. They will attack you even if they are injured. Some soldiers are killed by the opponent in this way.Fortunately, when recruiting the navy, many adventurers with rich experience in actual combat were included. These adventurers were away all the year round, and they were also outlaws before joining the army, so they were no strangers to this kind of scene.With these people, the navy of Stromgarde quickly stabilized their position after the initial panic. With the help of these adventurers, the newbies on the battlefield are adapting to the life-and-death battlefield.

It seems that I don't need to make a move.

Leo nodded secretly. This was the first battle of the Stromgarde Navy after its establishment. Relying on their own strength to defeat the opponent gave them more confidence than relying on their own help.

There will be no problems for the time being at the port where the fighting is the most intense, so Leo focused on the rear. He suddenly found a group of people sneaking towards the mountains behind Fadil Bay.

A few goblins are protecting two gnomes, what's going on?
Leo became curious, and he asked Perishion to quietly come over them, and the voices of this group of people reached his ears.

"Professor Fitzthorpe, Dr. Delacriger, I don't think this group of people is that simple today. Let's escape from the secret passage first."

A goblin said this to the two dwarves who were protected by them, but he didn't know that it was this sentence that caused his own death.

PhD?professor?
Look at these two dwarves wearing engineering glasses, are they engineering talents?
The goblins themselves are a race proficient in engineering. If these two gnomes were not extremely accomplished in engineering, these goblins would never attach so much importance to these two people.

Two engineering talents, isn't this exactly what I need?
Pharmaceutical research already has Veslim, wouldn't it be even more powerful to have these two dwarves in engineering?
Don't look at Leo's profound engineering attainments in the eyes of others, but in fact he is just a pseudo-engineering master, and he can't make anything except a limited number of items in the engineering list.The inability to innovate and research more engineering items means that it is difficult to improve engineering capabilities, but it is another matter if someone helps to research.

"Pelishion, kill!"

The goblins who were fleeing towards the secret passage suddenly found a strong wind pressure coming from above their heads. Before they could react, they didn't know anything about the sharp pain.

Under the cover of night, a skeleton dragon crushed several goblins and two dwarfs to death with one claw. The dragon's claws writhed on the ground, grabbed the corpses of the two dwarves, and disappeared quietly into the night.

What happened here was a fierce battle between the Stromgarde sailors and the Blackwater bandits without anyone noticing.

When the sky became brighter, the Stromgarde Navy, which had already won the victory, set fire to it after hastily cleaning the battlefield, and burned the pirate lair to the ground. Under the scorched earth, all traces were covered up without a trace.
