Naval battles are completely different from land battles.
Shen Rui understood this last time.
But the last sea fortress was more like a floating island than a ship.
Now that he has arrived at Qingjie Bay, the northern base of the East Coast Development Team, and boarded the warship assigned to them, he understands the special nature of naval battles.
The captain is an acquaintance of the East Coast Development Team, Feng Gang.
He was very enthusiastic and personally introduced the performance of warships to everyone.
"This is the latest Dark Sun III high-speed destroyer. It has a displacement of 13,500 tons. It draws on the technology of the five most advanced shipbuilding countries to achieve full inscription coverage. It requires 50 level 5 or above magic controllers to activate it at one time. The maximum speed can reach A speed of 100 knots, that is, 180 kilometers per hour, can be maintained for 2 hours. This is far faster than the speed of conventional ships. The normal cruising speed is 30 knots, using fuel power."
Shen Rui nodded, which reminded him again of the King Shark. Its sprint speed in the sea could reach 300 kilometers per hour, and it was known as the "High-speed Railway in the Sea."
With human technological power, coupled with the ability of the particle side, it is still far lower than the combat effectiveness of these powerful sea monsters.
If there is no battlefield space of one's own, the opponent will fight whenever they want and leave whenever they want, completely occupying the initiative.
In ancient times, infantry could not defeat cavalry because if they lost, it would be a big loss, and if they won, it would be a small victory. The opponent could escape at any time.
Fortunately, his strength has improved now, and his ability to maintain battlefield space has increased. With level 4 physical skills, level 5 magic control, and a super high charm of 63, it is enough for high-level sea monsters to find it difficult to break through the space and escape.
Besides, if you really encounter a high-level sea monster, you can also use the Violent Bear to restrain it. Although this guy will consume a lot of money in one use, you can't give it up at the critical moment.
Everyone else looked at this silver-white battleship with admiration. This expensive combat weapon was destined not to be owned by a single cultivator. Only large organizations could afford to build it and bear the cost of daily maintenance.
Fuel, personnel, and technology cannot be afforded by second- and third-line fortresses. Only large first-line fortresses and castles with a population of more than millions can support them.
When the doomsday comes, humans will still engage in a lot of cooperation, including technological exchanges. After all, everyone knows that if humans really perish, any technological monopoly will be nonsense. Except for some truly core technologies, other technologies will be shared as much as possible.
This warship can be said to have gathered all the latest technologies of mankind in this era.
Shen Rui took a closer look and saw that there were phased array radars and missile launchers, but more of them were naval guns and torpedo launchers. Obviously, this was different from the modern destroyers he remembered from his previous life.
Feng Gang had been paying attention to Shen Rui's eyes. When he saw his eyes falling on those large-caliber naval guns, he immediately started to explain.
"Originally, missiles had the best performance, but they were expensive to build. One missile would eat up the production value of a small castle for a month. Now it is unaffordable. Fortunately, conventional artillery shells were saved before the end. Therefore, for cost considerations, the naval guns were moved out again to deal with sea monsters."
"Thanks to the fierce internal fighting among us humans, at least these weapons and ammunition are not re-manufactured. They are only purchased from arms warehouses around the world. They will not be used for another fifty years. We just need to consider the issue of modification."
Shen Rui agreed with this. The arms production capacity is very terrifying. The production capacity of a World War II ammunition factory was 30 million rounds per month.
Thanks to these modern firepowers, humans can close the gap with high-level aberrations and prevent them from posing a fatal threat through a war of attrition.
"Well, Brother Lao Feng will be with you in the coming days. Please don't care about what I think. Train us hard. The more we sweat in normal times, the less we will faint during war."
Shen Rui said very seriously.
Everyone was speechless, but they had nothing to say.
"Don't worry, I will definitely teach you all the skills at sea. In fact, it is not difficult to learn. After all, you are all elites. Ordinary sailors can be put into formal combat after 3 to 6 months of training. Everyone's learning ability, The physical fitness is not comparable to that of ordinary people. After two weeks at most, after we have become familiar with the performance of the warship and the living environment, we can engage in actual combat."
Feng Gang smiled and said, "Of course, this is because Brother Shen Rui's team aura is so powerful that I dare to compress time like this. After all, if something goes wrong, nothing big will happen. However, is there anyone who can't swim? Someone specializes in teaching particle swimming. As long as your own particle energy is not exhausted, there will be no danger of drowning."
"I will count this later. There are more than 600 people, and there must be many landlubbers." Teacher Wu took over.
For the next two weeks, everyone was fed and accommodated on the boat.
Although this is a large-displacement destroyer, Shen Rui's team members plus the original ship control personnel have exceeded 800 people. In fact, the living space is very tight.
So much so that when going to bed at night, many team members would rather go back to the boring particle space to live in than go to the sailor's room where dozens of people are squeezed into one cabin.
Anyone who has lived in a large dormitory will know that smell.
What's more, this is a ship. Even with modern exhaust conditions, it can only guarantee the most basic sanitary conditions.
In contrast, the clean and broad particle space arouses the envy of everyone.
During daily training, after learning about the extra treatment of these team members, some commanders made a request to let the sailors live in Shen Rui's particle space during their daily rest.
Considering safety and convenience of attack, Shen Rui and Feng Gang agreed to their request.
After all, the danger of living on a ship is indeed very high. Some alienated sea snakes and seaweeds will sneak into the cabin at night and attack the soldiers.
This is a completely different scene from that on land. These creatures do not understand the real weakness of human warships and do not know how to destroy the core machinery. They only know that the weakness is the people inside.
"The sea environment is dangerous and the particle shield cannot be turned on all the time. Every time night falls, it is a test of life and death." Feng Gang said to everyone with lingering fear.
Everyone silently agreed. In the past two weeks, more than 30 people had fainted due to accidental attacks.
Shen Rui once again felt the lack of quota in the team. For safety reasons, he had to perform the operation of joining and leaving the team in shifts.
That is, whoever's turn it is to train outside will join the team, and when others are resting in the particle space, they will choose to leave the team, just like ordinary horses, living in the particle space.
With this method, the sailors on the original ship can be accommodated, and the number of personnel on the entire ship is always controlled under the upper limit of his team's quota.
Although it is troublesome and takes him an extra hour every day to perform these tedious operations, the results are good.
Since Shen Rui boarded the ship, the accidental casualties that used to occur more or less every month have never happened again!
With this alone, Shen Rui was able to do something that other generals would have to spend several years of hard work to do, win over the morale of the army...
A famous general in ancient times, Wu Qi had to suck the pus out of his soldiers, remove their clothes and feed them, and eat and live with them, so that the soldiers could do anything. The same goes for Yue Jiajun.
Everyone saw Shen Rui's hard work.
Originally, many sailors actually had some objections to the arrival of these geniuses. They felt that they had sweated and shed blood, and these people were enjoying the fruits of their labor, and their combat weapons were quietly taken away.
When the time comes, they will be the ones who suffer, and the other party will enjoy the fruits of victory. Who is willing to accept it?
When Shen Rui's operation came out, there was no such opinion again.
This is how it is in the army. Everyone will immediately notice the fairness of the general's actions. What soldiers fear most is injustice, because injustice on the battlefield means that they are likely to die in vain.
Shen Rui himself is not afraid of tedious work. In order to protect their lives, he maximizes the use of his talents. They, ordinary soldiers, were originally just cannon fodder, but they have the same security treatment as geniuses. What reason do they have for not working hard?
