Genius Archer Streaming Season 3 Episode 322
103. The Arrow Beyond the Match (4)
Dudong.
When Joseon was in its third generation.
Anto’s hands pause in their busy movements.
‘……Uh-oh.’
He realizes he’s been beaten.
“Wasn’t it? From the beginning.
The almond maneuver didn’t even exist in this game.
There was no such thing.
‘…….’
A plan that disappeared like a lie as soon as it was analyzed.
It’s unbelievable, but that’s the reality.
Look at the timing of Joseon’s 3-point move.
To buy the 3rd generation at this time, Joseon had to have spent the least amount of money on the 2nd generation.
The 2nd era operation didn’t even exist.
“Fighting an imaginary enemy.
The idea that a ship carrying almonds and archer troops would come in at least once in the 2nd century slowed Rome’s progress.
In the meantime, shipbuilding had moved up to the third generation, and now there was the Panok.
Boom.
Bam!
The guns open fire.
Roman fishing boats are sunk.
Resources are running low.
We still have land animals left, so the food supply hasn’t been cut off entirely…… literally, but it hasn’t been cut off either.
“Now two.
Two more Joseon panjok ships will appear.
Not that Anto has seen them, but the timing is definitely right.
[Karak – 79%]
Rome hadn’t even finished building the third-period sailing ship, the carrack.
‘As it is…….’
If the Panjoks make it to the coast, the Caracles don’t stand a chance.
Karaksun is a submerged ship and basically a sailboat.
It would be difficult to turn around in such a coastal area, and of course, it would be at a disadvantage in battle.
Moreover, while the Karak’s size and strength were greater than the Pan’ok’s, its artillery was inferior.
From the Panjok’s point of view, the Karak was a big target.
This was especially true on the coast, where the Panjoks had the speed advantage.
“We should avoid fighting on the coast.
Anto felt they should at least create a fight in the center of the sea.
“Will the next ship be the Panjok? Will it be a turtle ship?
This is an important question for Anto.
If it’s the Panjok, the strategy is questionable, but if it’s the Turtle, …… is possible.
“I’ll take the turtle ship.
He’s betting everything on it.
[boarding].
The Karak was nearing completion.
He puts a few workers on the transport.
* * *
“You mean to tell me that the caravan is going to enter the opposing coast! That’s not what Rome wants to happen!”
“Oh, why!”
King Gul exclaims excitedly.
“Because the Pangolin is a flat-bottomed ship, so it can go at its own speed offshore! I can even turn the ship around, and my cannon fire is so good!”
“Alas, but now Rome! There’s a carrack! A European-style sailing ship! Alas, it’s nice!”
“Yes. It’s cool, but now there’s a Roman carrack, an incendiary ship, and a transport ship! That’s all we have! Even Yi Sun-sin needs 12 ships to turn the game around! It’s hard with 3 ships!”
-LOL
-God still has…….
-lol
-The hairline thingy is a piece of junk if it’s stuck there.
-And Rome loses like this?
Two perfectly timed Joseon pancake ships pushing into the opponent’s main camp.
It was too deadly for Rome.
“Rome, can’t you do something about this?”
“They’re pushing in, and they’re not getting in the way!”
The range of the panzers was not yet long enough to hit the coast.
If Rome had a solution, it had to come now.
But-
“Huh!”
Ting.
Rome’s vision went out.
“What, he’s got something!”
-Oh.
-Sight con
-What is this?
-Here?
“Can we hit the beach now?”
The feed quickly zoomed in on the Pan-Ok ship.
“It’s coming!”
Kwaaang!
The black barrels of the Pan Oksan’s cannons scattered smoke, along with the white waves of the recoil.
Buildings on the shore begin to burn.
Of course, they’re on the outskirts, so they’re not as important as the buildings…….
Food storage, houses to keep track of the laborers’ population, they all have a role to play.
“It’s just a taste, but if they keep falling, these things are deadly, right?!”
“Yes! Rome can’t hire more workers if too many of these houses collapse!”
There is a limited number of workers.
To increase this, you need to provide them with a place to stay.
Conversely, you can’t produce more workers without housing.
“Oh, the Romans are so sensitive about workers!”
By the way, these laborers include “fishing boats”.
“Rome, it’s hard to see, but I think you’re starting to build back there now, aren’t you?”
Out of the corner of my eye, I see a group of laborers gathering and swinging hammers.
“They’re quick on the uptake!”
Still, the ‘house’ is cheap, and the construction time is short, so it’s a quick fix.
It’s all money, but it only costs gold and wood, which is fine for Rome at the moment.
“Rome still has priests, but the rate of gold and lumber mining has increased considerably! I think I’ll get my house back!”
With priests buffing your workers, you’ll be able to “mine” resources like gold and wood much faster than other civilizations.
“The problem is that this is not a normal nautical map!”
No matter how close you get, you can’t hit important buildings with your ships.
This would be true on any other nautical map.
But this was “Rolling Waves.
An island map with rivers and streams leading from the ocean.
Chaaaaaah……
Seeing that Rome is nowhere to be found, the two pansies push their boats into the river.
“Further! Further in!”
“What if we go this far in! We’re hitting some major buildings! Rome, you had incendiary boats! Where did it go! What about the Karak!”
Any more than that, and the damage would be devastating, but Rome’s resistance was strangely low.
“Even Cookie is pausing now, slowly moving in? Are you looking for a threat!?”
“No. Is that what it’s waiting for?”
Thump.
The black carapace ship appeared with a short drumbeat.
[Turtle Ship – Complete]
-Kiya.
-Gazia.
-You’re here, Geetaesik~!
-Oh.
-Da-da-da-da
-Korean Secret Weapon ððð
As the turtle ship appeared, a cheer erupted from the stands.
“Waaaaaaaaaaaah!”
The giant turtle ship balloon was inflated higher and higher, and countless people’s turtle ship dolls soared upward.
“I guess this turtle ship is as popular as almonds in Ya Joseon?”
“Yes, especially at this time, isn’t it, because Anto seems to be preparing something right now, and he’s added a turtle ship! This is a tanker-type ship, so it’s very resistant to surprise variables like incendiary ships!”
“Aaah! That’s right! Yay!”
That’s right.
With no way of knowing where or what the enemy ship is going to come from, the combination of the Panjok and the Turtle is the perfect formation to deal with it.
“The turtle ships are crossing the center of the sea, joining up…… eh!”
Was the turtle ship right in the center of the ocean?
An unbelievable thing happened.
Kwaaang!
“!?”
A cannonball from nowhere started hitting the turtle ship.
-??
-What?
-Huh.
-What?
“Uh, uh, what the hell!”
I couldn’t see it.
Turtle ships have a very narrow field of vision by nature.
While they are strong against ships like incendiaries and gunboats that come up close and hit them, they are helpless against such long-range bombardment when they are alone.
The enemy seems to have been waiting for it, and hits the turtle with one cannon after another.
Pow!
Pow!
White foam rises and the turtle shudders.
[34% Health].
“The turtle ship is a flat-bottomed ship, too slow to be hit from here!”
-Isn’t that a karak?
-What the hell?
-Wow
-How the hell are you here?
In the middle of the ocean, this kind of encounter has nothing to do with the ship’s performance and everything to do with the wounded.
“Anto, are you sure this is the ship you built to transport laborers to that island and build a dock there?”
Just then, Rome’s vision lit up.
King Gull had been right.
Anto had loaded the transports with workers and taken them to a small island near the center of the sea.
From there, he built a dock and produced carracks.
A sort of forward barracks, which would appear later in the game.
“This is almost like a carrack landing!”
Kaaaah!
The turtle ship roars to life and sinks to the bottom of the ocean.
With the Karak one-on-one in the center of the ocean, there’s no catching up and no escape.
“Taking advantage of the space in his favor! Deciding to cut off the supply of the following ships! Anto! You’re really something!”
“But this carrack is only hitting the turtle ships now, and it’s not heading toward your camp!”
The Roman main camp is burning, and he should be going to help, but he’s holding the center.
“That means Rome has something to hold off at least two Panjoks!”
King Gull looks over the ships positioned somewhere in the center of the Roman position.
A carrack tucked away in the far corner, and an incendiary ship tucked away in a corner somewhere outside of the main Roman position.
These were the only two ships, but Kingule could see what Anto was aiming for.
“When the carracks are stuck together. He’s trying to do damage to both with one incendiary ship.
With a dock built on another island and another Karak built, he didn’t have the resources to do anything at home.
So Anto realized he had to do what he could with what he had.
And his judgment was very sharp.
“The Panjok shouldn’t go any further into the river!”
The river narrows as it gets closer to land.
The more damage they wanted to inflict on Rome, the narrower they had to go.
“It’s already deep, now that I look!”
Before they knew it, they were already downstream.
The burning in the Roman camp had increased, but so had the two pansori, which were now stuck together.
“Roman incendiary ships, are they moving?”
Chaaaaaah……!
In the meantime, the incendiary ship set sail.
The incendiary ship was approaching from the back of the Panok.
Then, the Karak approaches quickly on the water from upstream.
Chaaaaaaaah!
The Karak comes crashing down with a huge wave.
-D
-Pirates of the Caribbean 🙒
-Wow.
-Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Pan Oksun’s attention is stolen by the giant Karak ship.
“Pan Oksun, turn your guns!”
Pan Ok Sun points his cannon at the Karak.
Karak-sun does the same, turning to the side and pointing his cannon.
Kwaaaaah!
Smoke billows from the black muzzles on either side, and the ship lurches and shakes.
Under the barrage of the two Panjok ships, the Karak had lost nearly half of its health in an instant.
What’s more, the flat-bottomed ship was able to turn around and fire again from here.
“Turn around.
But Anto was actually hoping for it.
The moment the Pan-Ok would turn halfway around, the incendiary ship would approach.
Then all the guns on the Panjok facing the incendiary ship would be reloading, unable to fire. They would be helpless to do anything.
“When it turns, it really turns!”
-Lol
-If you turn it, it will turn.
-Ahhhhhh
-Kkkkkkkkkkk
King Gull realizes Anto’s intentions and yells at him.
But──
“……?”
Did he even hear him?
“Ji, you’re really not going to do it?”
-Lol.
-Isn’t this cheating?
-What?
-I’m so relieved, I’m embarrassed.
-What????ㅋㅋㅋ
Pan Ok-sun didn’t make a half turn, but stayed put and pushed the shell back in.
And then-!
“Then!!”
──Huiuiuiuiui!
[Flying a hawk]
The hawk soared.
The incendiary ship that was slowly approaching in the darkness was completely exposed.
“!”
Everyone’s eyes widened.
Except for one person.
“This is it.
Cookie’s reflection on the screen was calm.
[Move]
A Panjok ship pulled back.
From the incendiary ship’s perspective, it was approaching.
From their vantage point, the citadel seemed to move and approach.
Chaaaaaah……!
The water churns, and the unused cannon on the other side puffs smoke.
Kwaaaaaah!
“Waaaaaaaaaah!”
The incendiary ship disintegrates into powder as the crowd roars.
“Cookie!!!”
The broadcaster leaps to his feet, slamming the table in excitement.
“My senses are on full alert today!”
“You found it like a ghost! What the hell is this, now!?”
-D.
-What?
-Wow, creepy.
-huh
-Did you know this?
-You saw ……?
-hahaha
-Mmmm
-Did you catch it???
It was the moment when all of Rome’s tricks, built up for a single shot from an incendiary ship, came crashing down.
Under Kingule’s command, even the carracks were baptized with a baptism of shells and exploded.
-I thought you said you were neutral.
-Are you the one shooting?
-Ahhhhhh
It was no surprise that a flat-bottomed ship faced off against two pansies on a river with a huge advantage.
Even if Rome succeeded in placing a single carrack in the center of the sea, it would not be able to eliminate the two punic ships that had entered their camp.
This left them with only one option.
[Surrender]
Admit defeat.
“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
A roar enveloped the stadium, and the numbers on the board changed.
