C2737 The sound of gunfire in Frissia

Bolkum was part of Prussia, the border between the Netherlands and Prussia's territorial waters, and its arrival here signalled the imminent outbreak of war.

"Did you find any Prussian battleships?"

"Reporting to the Captain, there are no traces of any ships … The sea winds and waves are gradually increasing, and the weatherman thinks there will be a storm tomorrow morning... "

"Continue observing!"

Huo Fu ran his hand through his grizzled hair and put on his military hat, "Isn't the show starting soon? "Idiot's army beat the war into shit, now it's our navy's turn to solve the problem..."

Captain pushed open the cabin door and saluted the sailors that were standing guard outside.

"Little guys, don't waste your energy by standing guard. Prepare for battle! From now on, the Navy will pull out all the nails on the Prussian coast! "

The nail Huo Fu was talking about was the Eastern Frisian Islands. It was a long chain of islands parallel to the Prussian coastline, protecting the entrance of the Port William.

The hamburger was the most important commercial city in Prussia. Some of the limited marine trade in this poor continent was concentrated in the hamburger.

After occupying this place, even if he had to grab hold of the Prussian's purse, a single victory would restore the morale of the people in France, who were already on the verge of collapse.

Huo Fu's eyes shone with excitement. He rubbed his hands and said in a low voice, "France's navy has been suppressed for too long. Everyone says that the national army is the strongest in this country.

"Today, everything is going to change. History will be created by my Navy. I believe that after this battle, the Navy will be revived!"

"Prussia... Ha ha-ha, you think you can take on us with just those crappy wooden boats? Give the order to the fleet to start fighting as soon as they enter range! "

The arrogant French navy did not care about the Prussian battleships at all. They only thought of the Zhiyuan Warship as a small threat.

But Huo Fu was not afraid, because before the battle, the Navy had made several military chess simulations, and the final result was that the Zhiyuan Warship would hide in the hamburger military port and passively avoid the battle.

No one believed that a Iron-armored battleship would dare to fight against the main forces of the French Fleet in the ocean!

It could be said that the possibility of the Zhiyuan Warship taking the initiative was not even one percent. Even if the Chinese people took the wrong medicine and dared to fight, Huo Fu did not believe that they would win.

Glory, Vauban, Cecil, which one isn't twice the tonnage of a Zhiyuan Warship? Furthermore, these Iron-armored Ship were not fake Iron-armored Ship s who were trying to cover for the army. These were steel beasts from the inside out.

It was not the kind of shitty goods that was covered by a layer of iron armor!

"Such a powerful fleet, would I be afraid of a battleship with less than 3000 tons of weight? No matter how powerful your artillery is, as long as I can endure the early casualties, I can still sink you! "

It was this kind of strong self-confidence that made Huo Fu completely ignore the threat of the northern seas and directly open fire on Prussian territory!

There was only one company of Prussian army on Bolkum Island, and their only mission was to guard the lighthouse. At the same time, there were more than two thousand fishermen living on the island.

The citizens of the fishing village were woken up by the sound of gunfire coming from the sea. At that time, it was already 9: 30 PM. The fishing village that did not have any nightlife had already fallen asleep.

But at this moment, a series of muffled thunder suddenly sounded out on the surface of the sea. Countless fishermen were awakened from their dreams!

"Where's the thunder?" Is there going to be a storm? "

But at this time, the artillery shell had already smashed into the fishing village. With a rumbling explosion, those broken wooden houses collapsed one after another.

"Fire!" God, the French must be coming! "

The panicked citizens rushed out of their homes, bringing their families with them as they fled in all directions. At this moment, only by escaping to the wasteland would they have a slim chance of survival!

The Prussian army's army camp was also struck dumb by the round of cannons. At the moment, French battleship s were generally equipped with 140-and 150-caliber main cannons, and the power of these cannons were far stronger than those of the army's. Every shot of the cannons was enough to destroy a sturdy brick house, let alone the shabby army camps on the island.

After just one round of bombardment, half of the defending troops of one company, including the Company Commander s, were buried under the ruins.

The sharp wooden board pierced through Company Commander's right lung, causing him to cough blood. Hurry up and send the telegram … " The only mission this company had was to protect the lighthouse and the telegraph.

When the Frenchman appeared and was about to send the message, it was a pity that God did not protect these people today. The bombardment was simply too intense, Huo Fu did not give Prussia any time to react, firing three consecutive shots to destroy the entire army base, as well as the telegraph line s.

Looking at the smoke rising from the island, Huo Fu said expressionlessly, "We will leave the rest of the matters to the Marines, we will go to the next island, reduce the reaction speed of the Prussian army, and kill our way to the Black Goran Bay at top speed, and stop those broken Prussian ships at the military port. That is our mission!"

The Glory left Bolkum Island with its five warships, showing off its might. It then sped towards the island, and after a quarter-hour, the following transport ships dispatched two companies of troops to the island. After a short clash, they completely occupied the island.

Huo Fu's operation was extremely smooth. The Eastern Frisian Islands was made up of a series of six large islands, and this midnight surprise attack had caused the Prussian army to lose three important barriers without any reaction.

Bolkum was lost, and Norderney and Lange were not spared. It was only when the flames of war reached the Spic Island that the military port of Wilhelm in the south received the report of war.

At the moment, Wilhelm Military Port did not have the majesty of the first or second world war. This grassy military port only had five sail frigate guarding it, of which only two were covered in iron armor.

When the commander received the exact number and details of the enemy battleship, the Port William bell rang loudly, and all the cannons went into battle mode, but the five battleships did not dare to go out to battle.

"Report to hamburger! We need reinforcements, the enemy has already started bombarding the Eastern Frisian Islands, we need reinforcements! "

The terrified Port William seemed to have seen the scene of the fall, as the entire city's citizens fell into a state of panic. However, at this time, a blurry image of a fleet suddenly appeared in the southwest direction of the French Fleet.

At this time, Huo Fu was bombarding Spic Island. When lookout hand reported to him about the change in the southwest, he immediately ordered the cannons to stop.

"No matter the identity of the incoming ship, we have to seize the best shooting position!" The entire ship, get ready for battle! "
