Except for the magic cruiser, which basically did not have much combat capability and had already started to retreat as soon as it discovered the enemy's traces, almost all the other six magic vanguard ships in the team were damaged, and two more were damaged.

The ship suffered moderate damage...

Just looking at our side's record, it's really not that good.

However, when the two sides fight against each other, in order to measure the performance, in addition to looking at the damage of one's own side, one must also consider the damage of the opponent before making a conclusion.

The images transmitted back through light and shadow spells are combined with the captain's report.

Luo Ji could actually tell that during the fight, their Vanguard Squadron's naval gun hit rate was quite high.

However, the embarrassing part is that the shield defense strength of the opposite ironclad ship seems to be quite high.

Although this magic vanguard ship is not equipped with main gun-level weapons, even so, the firepower is actually not bad. However, in the case of continuous hits on enemy ships, it was completely unable to break through the shield of the opposite battleship.

…

On the other hand, the firepower on the other side was extremely fierce.

In addition, the shield strength of the magic vanguard ship itself was average. During the fight, the shields were blown up one after another, and ultimately the price was paid.

Judging from this result, in this round of battle between the vanguard teams, their civilization of all realms can be said to have been completely defeated...

However, from the images and the captain's actual combat analysis, they can confirm that although the armored ship opposite has a certain advantage in firepower and defense, in terms of flexibility, it is actually better than their Wanjie Civilization

The magic vanguard ship is slightly inferior.

Guo Jia has also seen these images and reports.

Even Guo Jia said that the wrong fighting method played a large part in the complete defeat in this first encounter.

"What happened at that time? It was our vanguard team that opened fire first? It took the lead, and relied on the advantage of the thermonuclear energy cannon's strafing to successfully launch a pursuit."

Combining the images in front of him? Guo Jia spoke quickly.

"According to the momentum at that time, it is estimated that whoever is commanding the battle will definitely choose to increase the pursuit intensity in order to completely suppress the opponent."

Everyone in the conference room, including Luo Ji, heard this and nodded subconsciously.

That's right, since we have the upper hand, we naturally have to fight to the end. It makes no sense to give the initiative back after one round of firing.

"Under normal circumstances, during this pursuit, if our vanguard team could directly break through the shield of the battleship on the opposite side, then the entire situation would be turned upside down."

As he spoke, Guo Jia couldn't help but sigh.

"But the problem is that there are no enemy ironclads? Judging from the specifications, they should only be small ships, but the shield strength is stronger than we expected? The enemy ironclads that withstood our attack? Directly launched a counterattack?

In this state, the flexibility advantage of our magic vanguard ship was basically unable to be used, and was suppressed by the counterattack firepower from the opposite side..."

At this point, Guo Jia no longer needs to say anything more, because the entire situation is already clear.

The enemy fleet that launched a counterattack completely suppressed them with firepower, which eventually led to the current situation.

At first glance, their vanguard team seemed to be completely defeated, and the gap in strength between the two sides was simply extraordinary.

But in fact, this is not the case.

Just like Guo Jia said, this was entirely due to lack of intelligence and choosing the wrong fighting method.

If the vanguard fleet had adopted wandering tactics from the beginning and fully utilized the flexibility advantage of their magic vanguard ships, the situation would definitely not be as bad as it is now.

Let’s take this wave as a lesson learned.

Several damaged magic vanguard ships are already undergoing maintenance. After the results of the maintenance come out, they should be able to obtain some information.

Next, they will undoubtedly increase their vigilance for the entire area and general direction where the fighting took place.

At the same time, on Ivan Rust's side, the fleet under his command encountered the enemy fleet in the third area and the news of the battle was naturally fed back to him as quickly as possible.

The fleet he sent out to broaden his horizons won a complete victory. This result was nothing surprising to Ivan Rust.

He would be surprised if he didn't win.

However, judging from the information fed back, it seems that the other party has some strength and was not completely wiped out.

At the same time, according to intelligence, the opponent also has a dark red energy attack, whose power cannot be underestimated.

Although most of the vanguard ships he sent out were small battleships with mainly maneuverability and relatively weak defenses, during the short battle, the pressure on the shields of his vanguard ships was far greater than

He expected it to be much bigger.

This shows that the opponent's output firepower still needs a little attention.

After all, he is an opponent who has broken through the golden rank. Although Ivan Rust is confident, he will never relax and be careless.

During this process, the Wanjie Civilization side also quickly sent back detailed reports during the maintenance process of several magic vanguard ships.

During this period, their biggest discovery was to confirm that the opponent's armored ship's cannon was not a pure energy attack.

That naval gun has shells!

Because they found a large amount of shrapnel on the magic vanguard ships that were hit.

At the same time, there were a large number of things suspected to be incantations engraved on the shrapnel.

At this stage, it can be completely confirmed that it is definitely not an elven incantation, and it should not be a magic incantation from a magical civilization.

Because neither the elven spellcasters nor the array mages recognized that thing.

Combined with the information provided by Mr. Zhong Mo, this should be the thing called "magic magic formula" in Ivan Rust's civilization.

The opponent should use that magic formula to make cannonballs and attack.

According to Luo Ji, this thing is similar to the elven magic arrows of the elves.

Their civilization of all realms has actually tried to make cannonballs and so on.

But later I gave up.

Elf magic arrows can be made from spirit wood, but this cannonball is obviously not suitable for using spirit wood.

So if you want to use it, you can only use magic metal.

This alone has already raised the cost by another level.

Artillery shells are one of the most commonly used weapons in war, so if you want to make them, you must ensure that they can be mass-produced on a large scale.

Otherwise the actual value of this thing is meaningless.

In a war, there is indeed a key shot, but the prerequisite is that you must have thousands of cannons in front.

In response to this problem, of course they have also thought about whether to toss out a batch of special cannons and use them at critical moments.

But in the end, I came to the conclusion and gave up.

Because it is incompatible.

At the current stage of their civilization, the guns on the magic warships are basically divided into two types, one is the thermonuclear energy cannon, the other is the elemental magic cannon, and other technological weapons are missiles.

Under this premise, both types of naval guns are energy cannons.

Energy cannons don’t need cannonballs. Where can these cannonballs be inserted?

If we insist on building one, we have to build the corresponding naval guns as well.

After the naval cannon is built, if you want to equip the magic warship with it, you will inevitably need to dismantle some existing weapons and adjust the entire system.

After all, after so many years of adjustments and improvements, their All World Civilization's magic warship is now close to a perfect design. If you want to add something, you must remove something.

Such a set of twists and turns will not only increase unnecessary costs, but also reduce the output of the magic warship in its normal state. It is completely worth the loss.
