Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Flashes of cannon sounded, and a fiery and hot solid shell rushed out from the gun mouths, and then blasted towards the enemy ship, instantly making holes on the other side's ship, or plowing miserable traces of flesh and blood in the crowd, allowing the remaining limbs and blood to spread the floor on the enemy ship...

"Stop attacking!!"

At this time, at the end of the Orc Fleet, the forward ships of the Seventh Fleet were already the first to catch up with the enemy and started the first round of bombardment!

Then, the orc ship that was in trouble and had not had time to lift the speed was blown away by shells... The hundreds of orcs, trolls, taurens, wild boars, etc. on the ship could only scream and fell into the cold sea with the sinking wooden ship.

"Hmph! Don't worry about them, don't waste time!"

"Continue to chase at full speed and prepare to attack the next ship! Let the beasts below soak in the water! There is no land or island nearby, and no other ships will pass by, and there is only a big vortex, so they are actually dead!"

When he saw some sailors on his boat who had nothing to do actually took out muskets and were lined up to slow down the boat to shoot the tribe soldiers who were falling on the sea, swimming hard or struggling with pieces of broken logs, Dalin, the admiral, severely scolded them.

There is no need to waste their precious ammunition for these ugly beasts that are bound to die! He believes that the ruthless sea will naturally make them desperate little by little and devour their pathetic lives, which will relieve him more than ending their ugly life with a musket!

"Zo, follow the order..."

Seeing that the general began to lose his temper, the soldiers could only randomly aim the bullets in the musket at the enemy rushing on the sea and shoot for a round, leaving red water splashes in the opponent's blood there, and then embarrassedly put away the musket weapons that had already become safe, and then turned their heads to work on their own affairs.

They knew that Admiral Dailin was right, that the beasts of those tribes would definitely not survive, but they, who had a deep hatred with the orcs, couldn't help but want to experience the joy of revenge when shooting the enemy with muskets.

...

"Quick! Tie those things tightly and use everything you can!"

"And you, throw away all the barrels of water. There are two mages on our ship. Just make a watercraft to support your life! Throw away all the heavy things!"

At this time, some orcs from tribes were calling on the coolies of all races to work on the ships.

On this huge battleship with a rough style of tribe style, except for the sails painted with tribal flag patterns, the simple orcs even hung their clothes in everything they could, whether it was cables, edges, or both sides of the main sails, so that they could fully absorb the power of the north wind and make their ship speed faster.

“…”

Here, in front of the tribal fleet, on the flagship that led the navigation, the great chief Thar was standing at the bow of the ship, looking a little lonely at the rear of his fleet. Where, he could vaguely see that the enemy's fleet seemed to have bitten the ship at the last side of their team.

I believe that now, many warriors from tribes have been buried in the sea, right? And the reason why such a heartbreaking thing happens is that it is all his fault, because he shouldn't...

well……

"Chief! Now the enemy has caught up. They have sunk the two troop transport ships behind us. Hundreds of tribal warriors have disappeared! Now, they have entered the storm zone with us. You can give orders quickly!"

Of course, King Sarufar also heard the sound of cannons behind the fleet. When he heard the report of the lookout hand on the mast, his tribe had been sunk two warships with troops, he could no longer sit still! So, he immediately walked to the chief Thal and waited for the other party to give the last order.

"You're right, Sarufar..."

"You go and tell the shamans now and let them start the ceremony! Also, let other captains who follow our ship behind you pay attention: When the storm begins, no matter what happens, you must not slow down, and you must not change your course at will. You must follow us closely! Only by following us can you have the opportunity to rush out!"

"That's all, go and issue orders, may the soul of the ancestors protect us..."

After barely saying this to Sarufal, Saru was depressed and no longer cared about Sarufal who was leaving with his chest, nor did he look at the 7th Fleet ships that were neatly sailing ships rushing towards their tribal fleet in murderous spirit. Instead, he sighed and walked straight to the corner of the bow of the ship to stand still.

This time, when the storm begins and becomes violent, Thrall will use all his strength to communicate the current and storm of the sea, and try his best to bring as many tribal ships as possible! In any case, they cannot be surrounded and annihilated by the enemy here. He must lead the warriors of the tribe to escape from the storm area and the dangerous vortex, and escape from the pursuit of the Seventh Fleet!

However, he couldn't guarantee how many ships and tribes of warriors could survive in the end... it would definitely be a terrible number that he would never dare to imagine.

Woo! Woo!

Soon, as Sarufar ran to give orders in person, a series of distant horns began to sound in the entire orc fleet. They were conveying the final order of the Great Chief Thar between the fleets by sounding such combat-like horns.

...

"This is a bit strange..."

Following behind the tribal fleet, Dai Lin, who was gradually chasing the enemy, looked at the orc fleet in the distance with some confusion. He found that their navigation direction was very strange, and it seemed that they were not cutting through safer places along the edge of the vortex, but moving towards a more inner-point death direction?!

If you sail like this, with the current wind speed, you will definitely not be able to go anywhere faster! Then, in a few hours, they will be directly scraped into the seabed by the ruthless whirlpool to become a delicacy for fish! So, Dai Lin was puzzled. Does the other party have no idea about sailing at all, or does it have another purpose?

Anyway, he was very puzzled now, and he always felt that the orcs were acting strangely!

He hesitated for a while, stood at the bow of the boat, stepped on the guardrail, and focused on observing the enemy's formation and silently listening to the vague sounds of horns coming from the other party, General Dai Lin, somehow suddenly felt something was wrong! However, he couldn't figure out what was the problem.

"Report! Your Excellency, we found that the wind speed suddenly changed. Look!"

Just as Dai Lin was puzzled by the behavior of the Orc Fleet and did not understand what was wrong, a fleet officer who was responsible for observing the wind direction quickly ran to him and reported to him loudly with an exquisite small wind measuring instrument.

Weather, sea conditions, and even wind speed, etc., is a particularly important factor in the Azeroth world where ships and navigation technology are lagging behind! In a regular fleet like the Seventh Fleet, each ship is equipped with one or two professional observers, who are specifically responsible for observing sea conditions, weather and other data. After all, this is related to the life safety of all ships and officers and soldiers of the entire ship or the entire fleet, and it is not at all careless!

"How could there be any change in this kind of sunny weather? This is not..."

Crack~Boom!!

Dai Lin originally thought it was a false alarm or something, because they had made an assessment before. Today, the weather near this sea area is very clear, and the north wind is three to four levels, so it is impossible for too much change!

But never thought that before he finished speaking, a bolt from the blue exploded!

Then, dark clouds rolled in the sky in an instant, and the north wind that had already existed became bigger and violent! Then, among the rolling dark clouds, lightning flashed quickly and slashed straight towards the sea!

Fortunately, this seems to be just ordinary cloud lightning, not targeting either party.

"What is this and why does the weather change so outrageously?!"

Dai Lin has seen many changes in the sea for countless years. As the saying goes, there are unexpected storms in the sky, which is normal! However, like the current situation in front of us, there are no signs in advance. It is simply too strange to directly turn from a clear sky to a storm on the eve of the storm.

Although I still don’t know why it turned out like this, Dai Lin knew that this situation must be abnormal!

"Report to Your Excellency General!"

"The wind speed is still increasing. The north wind is close to level 10, with waves as high as eight feet. We are now in the storm area and heavy rain is about to hit. I suggest that you immediately order your turn and drive to the eastern waters for emergency avoidance!"

Soon, another naval officer who was detecting the sea conditions and in charge of navigation ran over quickly.

They had just estimated the wind speed and came to a very dangerous conclusion: once the north wind continued to increase gradually, they would be likely to be blown directly into the vortex ahead by the sudden appearance of the storm!

"His Admiral of Kurtiras! I have told you before..."

"If I guess correctly, this storm should have been created by the shamans of the orcs? When I discovered them before, they had been holding some strange ritual for several days... and now, from the perspective of the wind, I guess they were originally planning to blow you directly into the vortex?"

"Also, look at it... The vortex currents here have become more turbulent, the waves have become more violent, and even the sharp north wind has become a little unusual... In this case, even if we are Naga, staying on the sea, it will be very dangerous! So, General, you can make a decision now."

At this time, the woman Naga, who had been staying on the boat and enjoying a free cruise for several days, also advised her. As a marine creature, they certainly knew what this weather meant.

If their Navy Seventh Fleet does not evade the turn, it will be very dangerous next. It is normal for them to be wiped out by accident.

"Sir! I also think we'd better change our course immediately, and take advantage of the fact that the storm has not become bigger, and take advantage of the fact that we are still far from the vortex to rush out of the storm area directly from the southeast!"

"Those orcs are already crazy and are still rushing towards the direction of the vortex. Just let them go by themselves..."

Seeing that the situation had changed, the flagship mate who had been following Dai Lin silently had to speak in vain and advise Dai Lin not to chase the orcs anymore, so as not to make a difference at that time.

"Of course I know! But..."

"Look at...what those orcs are doing now? They seem to be still accelerating? I don't think those beasts will go crazy like this! They must have something to do this!"

The sea conditions changed. Although he was unwilling to accept it, Dai Lin did not rush to turn, but looked at the tribal ship in the distance that was continuing to speed up as he took advantage of the arrival of the storm without any life.

The other party's navigation direction has always been very strange... It seems that he is planning to cut directly into the vortex in the dangerous area? Are they really stupid, or are the ignorant fearless?

"No, I think I finally understand... They actually want to run away! Ha, interesting! So that's how it is. I really underestimate them!"

"Everyone! I think, I finally know their purpose: they want to use the power of the storm to accelerate the ships. As long as the speed is enough, they can run out of the ocean current control of the vortex from this dangerous area and escape our pursuit directly!"

"Look at the map!"

Finally, a flash of inspiration flashed in Dai Lin's mind and immediately understood the orc's crazy ideas. Then, he guided everyone to the chart nailed to the wooden table. Soon, he marked the current location and direction of the orc fleet. The other party wanted to use his speed and with the blessing of the storm, he rushed through the red dangerous area and escaped directly!

You know, their Kurtilas navy generally only dares to accelerate with vortex currents in the green area marked on the map. Large naval ships like them enter the yellow area, which means danger, but in the current favorable wind direction, it can be considered safe to enter and exit, but... if it is a red area, they will definitely not dare to get close!

"So, we can't just run away like this. We have at least two or three hours to chase them and reach this sea area! At that time, we will turn to the east again, and the strong north wind will let us leave safely!"

"Everyone, start sending a signal: all ships are raising their sails and speeding up with all their might!"

"Why don't we Kurtiras dare to do things that even those beasts dare to do? Let's catch up quickly, take the north wind and cut to the edge of the big vortex with all our might, and then bombard them all the way! Sink them!"

After finally figuring out the reason for the orcs' previous strange practice of reducing their burden and accelerating their rush toward the vortex, Dai Lin laughed out loudly!

"They also want to scare us away with storms and vortexes? That's simply a delusion!"

"Hmph! We must teach those stupid orcs a good lesson and let them know that the fearless sailing spirit and superb navigation technology of our Kurtilas are something they will never reach!"

In desperate situation, those orcs could still think of this method that could make most of the fleet ships escape safely from their Seventh Fleet's encirclement and suppression, which made him admire them very much! Dai Lin felt that there must be a very powerful figure in the orc fleet!

Therefore, this strengthened his determination to completely defeat the other party! Because no matter how much he admired, only the dead enemy is the best enemy!

"I understand..."

"But Your Excellency! We now have nearly a quarter of the ships in poor condition. In this extreme weather and bad sea conditions, I worry that they will not be able to complete that high-load pursuit mission..."

Although the first mate understood Dai Lin's thoughts and purpose, he was still a little worried. Because the ships that had already had some problems before and had to rush around the enemy and had not had time to complete the maintenance may have problems on the way.

If that is the case, if they are accidentally blown into the vortex, they will be really done!

"It's okay!"

"Send the order: let the ships in bad conditions turn to the southeast by themselves, and let them go to the northwest corner of Darkmoon Island to wait for us! After we send the orcs to the sea to feed the fish, we will go and meet them!"

After Dai Lin looked at the orc fleet in the distance, he had seen through the tricks, he sneered and gave the order.

If the orcs were just doing things randomly, he might not dare to accompany them to die. But now, since he knew the other party’s true purpose, what should he worry about? He competed with the skills of navigation and the performance of ships, and they were the Kurtilas people, who was he afraid of?!

They can just chase them all the way, kill them happily and fight with joy within a certain period of time!

"Yes! Obey the order!"

Since the matter has been cleared, the first mate has no reason to refuse or violate the order. This is just as the general said, even the orcs dare to fight, why don’t they?

“…”

"Admiral Delin, our mission has been completed... It's getting late now, and it's time for us to say goodbye... If you can go back alive, we will wait for you in Lordaeron's Whisper Bay!"

"The big vortex is very dangerous, I wish you good luck!"

Next, it was a very dangerous pursuit mission, and it was useless for them to stay here. Therefore, when the female Naga saw that the situation was not good, she changed her mind and said goodbye to Dailin.

If she returns to Lordaeron directly, she would be happy to have a free boat to board, but... if she rushed to the whirlpool, she would be sorry, they would not be with her.

"No matter what, this time, thanks to the timely information provided by you, we, Kurtiras, will remember this kindness! I promise you: Naga of your tribe, will be a friend of our Kurtiras!"

Now, Dai Lin was actually a little lucky. If he hadn't happened to meet the Nagas sent by Queen Caria to pick him up, once they continued to sail according to the original route, and after they drove into the storm trap prepared by the orcs, that terrible end... he would have been a little unimaginable!

"See you again, I hope I can see you..."

After saying that, Naga and the men of the fishermen walked directly to the edge of the boat, and then plunged into the sea one after another, and soon disappeared completely. This cannot be blamed on them for being timid. After all, the next pursuit battle is not a joke. If it is scraped into the vortex, it will be very life-threatening for Naga and the fishermen.

Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that it is still far from the vortex, go directly to the sea, and find ways to catch a few turtles or seahorses, and swim back to Lordaeron slowly is the best choice.

As for storms or something, they can't affect them at all under the sea.

“…”

"Order: Heading to the south, facing the right five degrees, we are moving forward at full speed! The artillery soldiers on the left and right are ready to load the bullets. As long as you find any enemy ships that enter the range, you can fire directly without waiting for the order!"

After watching the female Naga and the fishmen jump into the sea one by one and quickly disappeared, Dai Lin turned his head and ordered to the first lieutenant.

Today, those orcs don’t want to easily run away from his palms!

Even if they cannot wipe out the other side, they will do their best to sink a few ships. They must give the beasts a deep lesson so that they will be frightened when they see the warships of the Kurtiras Navy!

"As for your order, Your Excellency!"

As the first mate went to order again, soon, except for the dozen or twenty ships in poor condition, they did not dare to pursue and began to leave the fleet's battle line and switched southeast, preparing to stay away from the storm area, the others followed Dai Lin's Admiral's flagship, and directly filled the sails and rushed towards the orc fleet in the distance!

"Hmph! Orcs...you will always remember this day!"

Looking at the slightly chaotic orc fleet in front of them, Dai Lin sneered and put away his telescope. At their current speed, it only took half an hour for their front team to catch up with them. Then, they would use naval guns to turn the broken ships made of ridiculous thick wood into logs!

As for the storm?

Humph! The Kurtilas people are never afraid of storms, so let the strong wind come more fiercely! Only in this way can they witness their upcoming brilliant victory!
Chapter completed!
