Chapter 4 Centennial Navy
Although this flagship is old, it is also a medium-sized warship of five or six thousand tons, with protective armors several inches thick.
After getting shot on the deck, it was like a big hammer hitting an iron plate, and the whole ship was shocked.
Many sailors who were closer were injured and vomited blood in the huge vibration.
Several pipes were even cracked and high-pressure steam was sprayed out, burning several nearby people.
However, that's it. The entire warship's structure was not damaged at all, and it began to fire a cannon and fight back.
You should know that the shells of these warships have extremely strong power. However, their defense is also amazing. Even if the shells of this weight hit, they often need to be hit by dozens of cannons before they can completely sink.
However, the tactics of the Daqi fleet were different from those of the Eastern Japanese, and they fired guns and bullets.
The so-called gun bullets are like giant spears with a diameter of half a meter. They are also shot out with steam, although the power is not as huge as circular shells.
However, its sharp arrows are easier to pierce the enemy's armor protection.
These two types of shells have their own advantages and disadvantages, and only depends on the commander's choice.
"Boom..."
A bullet flew out, and it was as if it was revenge and hit the side of an Eastern Japanese warship.
This place should have been the thickest protective deck and the most powerful protection, but it was still half blown by gunfire and hung on the side of the enemy warship.
Similarly, it did not cause much trouble to the enemy!
The enemies were particularly jealous when they met. Both sides fought back and forth, and they were extremely brave in fighting style. They almost did not dodge or avoid shells, and did not rely on the mobility of warships to avoid shells.
Instead, they all dodge or avoid each other at close range and bombard each other!
In this kind of battle, even the two-method masters have no effect.
In naval battles, mages often play auxiliary roles such as reconnaissance, detection, shade, and illusion.
However, in close-range artillery battles, none of these are used.
The power of hundreds or thousands of kilograms of huge shells being ejected by high-pressure steam cannot be resisted by the power of the mage.
Since that's the case, the two-methodist simply jumped out and fought alone in the air.
Of course, this kind of tactic is very tragic. In just a few minutes, both sides sank a ship.
But overall, the Daqi fleet still has a slight advantage.
Because not only is the power of the Daqi squadron slightly stronger than that of the Eastern Japanese, but more importantly, there are two airships working together on the Daqi squadron.
In the meantime, several alchemy incendiary bombs were thrown on the Eastern Japanese warships.
Although these incendiary bombs cannot burn through the armor of warships, they are enough to cause a raging fire to rise on the deck of the Eastern Japanese warships, causing countless water-surface buildings and sailors to fall into the sea of fire...
However, this can only say that the warships of the Eastern Japanese are also old, because in the past twenty years, the power of airships has become increasingly important.
The protection of airships by new warships has long been mentioned to a very important point.
At least, in the past twenty years, the new warships have rarely had deck buildings. During the battle, almost all personnel operated under armor protection.
I will not give the airship's incendiary bomb any chance to show off my power!
Moreover, the air defense power on those new warships is very strong.
However, in the Eastern Continent, these old warships are still retained. In the eyes of the Romans, their naval level is roughly the level of pecking at each other!
Even Yin Shengzhi, who was watching the battle from a distance, could vaguely see that the Eastern Japanese were more than one better than the Daqi fleet in terms of training level and soldier quality.
"It was not unfair to lose to the Eastern Japanese in the Xishagou naval battle..."
It was the war when the Luoba people invaded Luo Xian. As Luo Xian's sect leader, Daqi sent troops to protect Luo Xian.
However, he did not expect that in the war, not only the entire navy was wiped out.
Even Luo Xian did not save it. The Eastern Japanese even fought from Luo Xian into the Great Qi and captured the Shendu...
"A century-old navy, under the guidance of the Kingdom of Alfred, the Eastern Japanese have been fully committed to developing the navy for decades.
On the contrary, since the entire army was wiped out by the Xishagou Naval Battle, my Daqi, the naval training and quality were not as good as the Dongwu..."
As long as the army fires a gun and trains for a few months, it will be a qualified soldier.
And the construction of the navy is not that easy... It is considered a real technical army.
Even Yin Shengzhi had no choice. In a short period of time, the navy's strength was significantly strengthened.
It is hard to say that we will increase the construction of the navy in the future.
But the Navy is too expensive, millions of gold are enough to equip a full-fledged main force.
However, you can only buy a second-class warship of 20,000 tonnes!
Just as Yin Shengzhi was slightly distracted, there were already a shocking cheer on the airship.
Another warship of the Eastern Japanese was sunk and slowly sank towards the bottom of the sea.
At this time, the Eastern Japanese fleet was only the last ship left.
They had already begun to retreat, not looking like they were preparing to escape, but were planning to fight and deal with the Daqi fleet with their mobility.
This kind of tactic is more difficult. Obviously, with the quality of the Daqi fleet, if it was the way of playing at the beginning, it would probably be Daqi's turn to be at a disadvantage.
"It seems that reinforcements will arrive when the enemy is so entangled, ready to fight!"
Yin Shengzhi issued an order.
Everyone is very enthusiastic, and they all respond.
Since the Battle of Xishagou that year, the Daqi Navy has almost completely wiped out.
This is the first time I am so proud!
The fleet that transported military supplies to Beizhen saw that the situation was not good, sneaked away and wanted to rush to Beizhen in circles.
At this time, they didn't know that on the Great Qi warship that stopped them, there were senior alchemists of Confes who were personally in charge.
He also wanted to use the fog of the astral realm to confuse his vision and then take the opportunity to escape.
However, how did they know that they had fallen into Yin Shengzhi's net of heaven and earth? How could they know that there was a ** teacher opposite them?
In fact, if Confes hadn't intended to delay time according to Yin Shengzhi's plan, the fleet would have suffered a long time ago.
This time, the mages on the ship wanted to resist and take the opportunity to escape.
Because they vaguely felt that the situation was strange and very bad.
However, as they made up their minds, white mist rose around them, trying to take the opportunity to escape.
