Li Sunyi was a naval admiral who also had great talents and great strategies.
He knows...
This battle will determine the future of the Li Dynasty!
Will determine the situation in Asia as a whole!
It may even determine the situation of the entire world!
He can rely on this battle to become famous!
Li Chao can also get a period of opportunity for development!
He is a general.
He doesn't want to get involved in the complicated internal struggles in the country. What he wants is victory!
Turtle ship, a low warship with extremely thick armor, was first invented by the Li Dynasty. At that time, Yi Sun-shin, the famous naval admiral of the Li Dynasty, relied on this kind of equipment to defeat the Japanese pirate navy.
Although we have now entered the age of firearms, and the power of explosives has been greatly improved compared to before, the turtle ship's ability to take damage is still not comparable to other warships.
As long as the turtle ships can absorb the first wave of bombardment, their naval guns can take advantage of the enemy's reloading time to bombard the opposing warships and gain an advantage!
What's more...
On their side, there are several Yinzhou ships supported by Long Yan!
The strength of the entire battleship group still has a clear advantage in Asia.
Li Shunyi had a good idea, but things developed a little differently than he thought.
Originally, he wanted the turtle ship to attract firepower, but he never imagined that the Tsarist Russian army had no interest in this "small and exquisite" thing.
Tsarist Russia did not regard this little thing as a warship at all. They thought that there were envoys or something in this ship and they wanted to contact them.
Their eyes have been on those Yinzhou ships...
A group of people were watching the excitement. Now, the soldiers of the Li Dynasty on the turtle boat were also stunned. Originally, they were prepared to be beaten. What would they do if they didn't?
However, after a brief hesitation, the turtle ship captain immediately came to his senses.
Their mission is not just to get beaten, the fundamental purpose is to start this war!
As long as they can absorb all the enemy's first round of artillery fire onto their turtle ship, their mission will be completed.
Although the turtle ship is a "damage-bearing" ship, it also has certain attack capabilities. The turtle ship has hundreds of shooting windows and is also equipped with small artillery with a range of several hundred meters. Although it is not comparable to the main battleships
, but it can also inflict pain on the opponent.
After the captain regained consciousness, everyone came to the battle site and took their places. At this moment, the Tsarist Russians stood at the bow of the ship: they were curious about what this "little thing" wanted to do.
As soon as the captain gave an order, hundreds of muskets were fired in unison. An unexpected burst of projectiles killed dozens of Tsarist Russian soldiers who were watching the excitement on the bow of the ship.
The reloading speed of the firecracker is much faster than that of the artillery, and when the firecracker adopts three-stage shooting, its rate of fire will be greatly increased.
"What the hell!"
"Fooled!"
"These sticks!"
"How dare they sneak up on us!"
The turtle ships attacked continuously, catching the Russians by surprise. After they reacted, the Russians were very angry.
Suddenly, all surrounding artillery fire was focused on the turtle ship.
One shell after another fell on the hull of the turtle ship. Although the turtle ship was very strong, it was still riddled with holes.
Fortunately, after receiving a beating, the turtle ship did not sink, which surprised the Russians.
They originally thought of sinking it with a second round of shelling, but Li Shunyi would not give them this chance.
After the first round of artillery fire from Tsarist Russia ended, Li Shunyi's fleet aimed at Tsarist Russia's flagship and fired.
Hundreds of artillery shells were fired at the flagship. Ushakov, who was about to direct the counterattack, was directly thrown away by the artillery fire!
The Yinzhou ship's gunfire is naturally powerful.
It catches people completely off guard.
The flagship had tilted, and the flagship had no command. The entire fleet was instantly in chaos.
The Tsarist Russian fleet counterattacked hastily, but their accuracy was really poor, and their hit rate was not even one tenth.
On the other hand, Li Shunyi's fleet was neither impatient nor impetuous, and fought steadily and steadily. They took aim before firing, and their hit rate was 40% higher than their opponents!
The fighting at sea was lively, but the fighting on land had stopped.
Just as they were about to launch their final attack on Niu Chaofeng and the others, they suddenly discovered that their rear was on fire.
If this is the home continent, that's okay. What's terrible is that this is an isolated island, and those warships are their only way to leave here.
If the warship is lost, these people will have no intention of fighting.
"General, their position is in chaos, let's go forward!" the deputy general suggested.
"Don't chase after poor bandits. Our mission is to hold them back. It's not like an egg touching a stone. You only have one life. Although you are not afraid of death, don't cherish it so little."
Li Shunyi said calmly.
Although he also wants to annihilate the opponent, the war comes slowly.
Ushakov is not someone who will let you succeed overnight.
War is an art.
It needs to be designed slowly, polished slowly, and tasted slowly.
