Hearing Liu Zheng's answer, the captain was stunned for a moment, but then he performed a standard military salute and said in a deep voice: "Yes!"
"Pass my order, prepare the entire army for war, and be careful to deal with the enemy!"
The destroyers of Longyan Fleet sailed at full speed, keeping distance from the supply ship.
Liu Zheng went out and mobilized three supply ships and four Yinzhou destroyers.
Such a naval configuration is enough to destroy a country.
When Captain France saw the formation of the Longyan fleet, he did not panic at all.
They deployed fifteen battleships on the sea area just to ensure that the battle with Long Yan was foolproof.
This is not the first time that their French fleet has collided with the Longyan fleet, and they have experienced previous disastrous defeats.
The French fleet has been fully prepared, and their artillery attack range is not as wide as that of the Longyan Army.
If they attack directly, they will be attacked by the Dragon Flame Fleet.
If attacked by the Dragon Flame Fleet, even their steel hull would be sunk in a very short time.
The attack power of the main guns equipped on Long Yan's supply ship and Yinzhou ship simply does not look like weapons that can be manufactured at this time.
The attack is separated and powerful.
Now the Long Yan Army has fired artillery shells at them. After the calculation of the three shells just now, they have roughly calculated the true attack distance of the Long Yan Artillery.
It's about 400 to 500 meters, which is already a very terrifying attack distance.
This distance will be the effective attack range of Long Yan's fleet, with extremely high hit rate and huge power. If it exceeds this attack distance, the hit rate will be greatly reduced.
But such terrifying distance and shell power are obtained at the expense of the size and weight of the main gun.
After the French army spent their lives on research, they found that the powerful main guns on their Longyan battleship were equipped with a series of labor-saving mechanical devices.
However, in actual use, because the gun body is too heavy, it is difficult to adjust the turret.
Therefore, as long as they continue to maintain high-speed circular motion, the most powerful cannons on the Longyan fleet will not be able to exert the slightest effect, and they can even be manipulated by them.
Captain France ordered the formation of an encirclement and circular movement, gradually closing the distance with the Longyan fleet.
Trying to disable the last main gun of the Longyan fleet.
In the Longyan Fleet, which had its main guns abolished, the attack range was only 300 meters close to those of the secondary guns.
The main guns of their French fleet can attack at a maximum range of 350 meters.
Their French fleet still has an absolute advantage.
On Long Yan's battleship, whether it is a supply ship or the Yinzhou ship.
The main guns equipped were unable to target the approaching French fleet.
Just as Captain France expected, the Longyan Army's main gun had no time to adjust its direction at high speed.
Liu Zheng saw the Long Yan Army on the fleet and hurriedly mobilized the forts, but he couldn't aim at the French army.
He laughed. Unexpectedly, after fighting so many battles with the Longyan fleet, the French finally found a flaw in the Longyan fleet.
Without the invention of motors, they relied solely on mechanical structures and human power to drive them. It is indeed difficult for these main guns weighing five or six tons to electronically rebound to the turret. There is no way around it.
But this does not mean that Long Yanjun has no way to resolve such a crisis.
Without the main gun, the Long Yan Army will indeed lose more than half of its combat effectiveness, but the supply ship is powerful not just because of the main gun.
The reason why supply ships can navigate the sea depends more on speed.
Liu Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, silently calculating something in his mind, and ordered: "Pass my order, disperse the troops, sail the Yinzhou ship in the opposite direction, adjust the fort to this angle, and stabilize it."
"There is no need to aim. After one minute, launch the attack."
