Chi——!

[Shipboard Analysis Machine] Spurting steam.

"Set up and shoot Zhuyuan! Azimuth angle 27-00, shooting angle 06-80! Eight rounds of rapid fire! - Release!"

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!...

The continuous terrifying artillery fire on the deck screamed and roared, the surging gun flames obscured the clouds, and the violent muzzle whirlwind drove back the waves.

In overseas battlefields, both the Principality and the Federation have not yet deployed their battleships as the absolute main force into frontal battlefields.

Not to mention the [Legendary Battleship] that was relied upon by various countries as a weapon to protect the country thirty years ago.

In fact, with the advancement of human technology, the emergence of technological weapons such as "Elemental Turbulence Bombs" that restrain extraordinary power have gradually caused the "Legendary Battleship" as an extraordinary crystallization to lose its dominance over the sea.

Even if you exclude the unreasonable [Legendary Battleship Skill], the basic data of those "old-fashioned sailing battleships" may not even be comparable to an ordinary battleship today.

But at this time, a large number of cruisers from both sides were already patrolling in many routes, and the sudden encounter was a fierce battle that shook the sea.

After all, in a war where technological power has developed to this point, neither the Principality nor the Federation expects a quick victory.

Senior officials have a clear understanding that modern war is all about economy, logistics, and scientific and technological reserves. Otherwise, there would not have been the arms race of the past two decades.

current stage.

From east to west, in the Eritrean Sea, in the Sea of ​​Treasures, in the Black Sea, in the Sea of ​​Gold, in the Sea of ​​Broken Stars...

The main strategy of both sides is to cut off the other party's maritime arteries, suppress the opponent's war potential, and eliminate their effective forces.

Just at this time, two fast cruisers "Leo" and "Front" belonging to the Principality's "Golden Sea Fleet".

They met the four federal warships "Derflinger", "Seidlitz", "Black Ice", and "Dahlia" in the northern waters of Saint-Domingue Island, which is still an important cargo hub.

.

The commander's "eight-shot rapid fire" command is a way of giving up accuracy and pursuing rapid and violent fire suppression.

Just like the relationship between short bursts, long bursts, and continuous shots in rifle shooting, a balance point must be found between accuracy and firepower.

Also in sudden engagements, normal follow-up calibrations were abandoned to maximize one's own firepower advantage.

[Federal Navy·Fast Cruiser·City Defense Class]

[Armament]: 2 single-barreled 152mm/50-caliber main naval guns (range 12,800 meters); 10 single-barreled 102mm/50-caliber secondary guns; 4 single-barreled 47mm rapid-fire guns; 2 450mm torpedo tubes.

[Principal Navy·Fast Cruiser·Tireless Class]

[Armament]: Main gun: 4 twin-mounted 152mm 50-caliber artillery; Secondary battery: 4 single-mounted 102mm 45-caliber artillery; Anti-aircraft gun: 3 quadruple 12.7mm 62-caliber anti-aircraft cannon

; Torpedoes: 2 quadruple 533 mm torpedo tubes.

Relying on the equipment gap, the two Principality cruisers, which were the first to discover the enemy's traces by relying on the [Psychic Network], still had the upper hand even if they were two against four on the territory they had operated for decades.

At the same time, the two cruiser captains unceremoniously fired half of the "torpedoes" they carried at the Federation's flagship "Derflinger".

A total of eight snow-white water lines flew towards the Federation fleet carrying destruction and death.

"The rear chimney was shot, and the traffic boat was damaged in the battle."

Then the instructions on the radio waves became faster and faster.

"Get in the car at full speed!"

"The whole car comes to an emergency stop!"

"Get in the car!"

"Light speed to port!"

"Slow speed on both sides!"

The carriage orders were given out one by one, and then quickly executed by the sweaty sailors.

The artillerymen who were activating the turret to launch a counterattack felt that the "Derflinger" beneath them was moving faster and slower, tilting rapidly left and right and making sharp turns, which also greatly interfered with their shooting accuracy.

finally.

Boom——!

After the loud noise, thick smoke rose.

"Report to Captain, the stern of the ship was hit by an eel!"

The Federal Navy likes to call torpedoes "eels", while the Principality prefers to call them "trout". In this sacred world, this is probably a kind of superstition.

In short, for the navy, the word "torpedo" is not auspicious.

"The rudder angle indicator is 12° to the left, or 12° to the left, and it's not moving! The 'Derfflinger' has lost the ability to sail. Hurry! Call for air support!"

at this time.

Ai Wen, who incarnates and sits in the center to serve as the commander of the war in the New World, has already seen all the enemy's intelligence in his "eyes".

Because in a layer of vision that is completely invisible to others, endless electric waves are surging back and forth in the entire material world.

During the period when the "Electrical Industrial Revolution" has developed to the present, Ivan finally realized his original dream.

In the material world, whether it is radio, wireless communication, radar...the root cause is the application of Ivan's "electrical pulse and signal transmission technology".

As early as thirty years ago, He could already use the power of [Heraldry Knight] and [Insight Demonic Eye] to directly read electromagnetic wave information flying all over the sky.

Now he has directly transformed into an "Information Omniscient", observing the information carried in electromagnetic waves, just like observing lines in the palm of his hand.

"Oh, we are repeating the same trick again. Order, let our air force formation on Saint-Domingue Island take off! Let them see what the crystallization of black technology is."

So, over the Golden Sea, five "flying carriers" descended from the clouds.

At least thirty "Sparrowhawk" ornithopters fell from the sky like dumplings.

Saint-Domingue Island seems to be an airport used only for landing and taking off airships.

There were two flight formations with a total of twelve fixed-wing aircraft "F1 Eagle Eagles" soaring into the sky quickly, spiraling upward to quickly seize the altitude advantage.

Ta da da...

The two aerial cannons on each aircraft fired straight at the enemy ornithopter like poisonous snakes.

In an instant, what was supposed to be an advantageous air-to-sea strike turned into an unexpected air battle.

"Sparrowhawk" ornithopter length: 6.08 meters; wingspan: 7.82 meters; height: 2.20 meters;

Maximum speed: 212 km/h; Endurance: 2 hours; Empty weight: 500 kg; Maximum take-off weight: 704 kg.

It is a new aircraft designed and manufactured by Paimon, the "God of Trickery", based on the principles of bionics.

The advantage is that it can fly long distances with very little energy. At the same time, it can hover directly in the air and has strong maneuverability.

The "F1 Hornhawk" fixed biplane fighter, which debuted on the war stage for the first time, is 5.72 meters long and has a wingspan of 8.53 meters.

The empty mass is 321 kg; the maximum take-off mass is 659 kg; the maximum level flight speed is 260 km/h; the practical ceiling is 5774 meters; the endurance time is 4 hours.

It has larger load capacity, faster speed, longer endurance and higher ceiling.

Playing a major role in this are two black technologies that are particularly worth mentioning.

The [Ogle carburetor] can be called a milestone invention in the history of the internal combustion engine. It was invented by an [electrical engineer] named Ogle.

This filtration "black box" ditches the traditional fuel pump and carburetor in favor of a reinforced fuel tank and heating coil.

The cold liquid fuel is pressurized to suck out the vapor, and then injected into the combustion chamber to achieve high-pressure vaporized fuel injection.

During the initial experiment, it could increase the efficiency of automobile fuel to 42 kilometers per liter, with a fuel consumption of 2.5 liters per 100 kilometers, doubling the endurance of the internal combustion engine and giving the "F1 Horned Eagle" a huge battlefield advantage.

[Large tow carbon fiber] A research and development project personally hosted by Olivia, a black technology material for the petrochemical industry.

The diameter is 1/50 of a human hair, the density is 1/4 of steel, and the strength is 7 times that of steel. It has high stiffness and high corrosion resistance.

It can be widely used in the hulls, shells, decks, frames of cars, airplanes, battleships, cruisers, and the frames of rigid airships, etc.

The battle started in less than a minute.

Woo——!

A blazing fireball roared into the sea.

"Hahaha, good job guys! The first Silver Star badge is ours!"

The commanders of this air force formation, Lieutenant Colonel Torolop and Major Willett, laughed.

The first shooting down since the beginning of the war came from their subordinates, which really made them look bad in front of His Majesty.

However, no one noticed at this time.

High in the sky.

Boom! Boom! Boom!...

The passionate drumbeats that only sounded in the spiritual realm echoed endlessly in the sky, and a thin figure in green danced with a spear.

The movements are flamboyant, full of power and rhythm, but it is a kind of classical war dance from an unknown civilization.

"Hahaha, the 'World Consciousness' has indeed taken care of me. I originally thought that it was hopeless to restore the position of [Demigod], but now we are facing such a grand war that has never been seen in history.

Blood, death and fire, ah! It’s so beautiful!

Maybe the war only needs to last two years, no, just one year, and I can return to the throne of [Demigod]."

This figure appears to be a young archer with a long bow on his shoulder, a quiver hanging on his waist, and a spear in his hand.

In fact, it is the Demon God Lelagin, the 14th among the 72 Demon Gods. He will cause wars, provoke battles, and leave corpses everywhere and graves filling the fields.
