Issue 6 Chapter 4 Burning 4: Speed ??of Life and Death
A small decisive battle broke out.
The Xuanzhen Sect's Weihai Fleet did not immediately turn around and head south, but first launched a crazy attack. They wanted to weaken the Jinghai Fleet of the Kingdom of Shaoze as much as possible before the Xiaoyao Sect's Sea Dragon Fleet arrived.
At the same time, Lu Xuanyu also commanded the warships to conduct a partial coverage attack on the enemy ships. He caught several enemy ships and gave me a deadly attack. I will not change the target until they are sunk!
However, the morale of the Jinghai Fleet was high at this time, and the warships moved to the southeast while fighting back. The Jinghai Fleet did not simply retreat, but retreated while attacking; and this battle was almost a decisive battle.
Lu Xuanyu did not allow the opponent to retreat safely, and Xiao Yunlong obviously also knew that war is not a game, and you cannot quit if you want to. It can even be said that the closer you get to the end, the harder it will be to quit!
The naval guns roared, and the flames ignited the sea surface; the shells rained down, and the entire sea surface was blown to pieces.
The warships on the Xuanzhen Sect's side faced off head-on with the warships. From time to time, you could see warships being blown into pieces all over the sky, and a large number of wood chips covering the sea.
But again, facing the saturation attack of warships, the warships of Shaoze Kingdom sank one after another.
The two sides are engaged in a death race.
Lu Xuanyu led the main fleet and relied on the superior technology of Dayang Group's steel battleships to hold on to the Jinghai Fleet without relaxing at all.
The naval officers mechanically loaded the cannonballs, waited for orders, fired, used magic to clear the barrels, and then reloaded.
In this efficient state, the battleship can fire a salvo in almost 20 seconds. However, considering the actual situation, considering the speed, stability, etc. of the battleship, it takes almost a minute to fire a salvo. Within a minute, it will
There are some small-caliber artillery for harassing attacks.
The two fleets moved forward side by side, almost fighting hand-to-hand, and their respective warships became fewer and fewer.
Ten minutes later, the Xuanzhen Sect's Weihai Fleet had 42 warships that could still fight and 570 warships left; while the Shaoze Kingdom's Jinghai Fleet had 120 warships left.
In another ten minutes, the Weihai Fleet had 38 warships and 418 warships left; while the Jinghai Fleet had 97 warships left.
In another ten minutes, the number of warships in the Weihai fleet dropped sharply to 27 and 303; the number in the Jinghai fleet dropped sharply to 72. At this time, the distance between the two fleets was actually less than 800 meters! The naval guns had been completely leveled.
This is already a bayonet fight!
The gunners on both sides could even see each other's eyes and see the dim light of the shells in the flat naval guns.
Ballistas, depth charges and other attack methods were all used. Both sides had reached the craziest extreme.
The sniper rifles were aimed at each other, and the bullets with the ability to break the ban caused their respective defensive barriers to ripple like water ripples. The only thing that could stop these bullets was a half-meter-thick steel baffle.
Fortunately, there are not many bullets with the ability to break the ban. The pricing of Dayang Group is horribly expensive. The price of a bullet is almost the price of a high-end magic weapon. It is a hundred times more expensive than a 460mm artillery shell, and more expensive than having a bullet that can break the ban.
The capable shells are twice as expensive!
In the sky, the battle of the Transformation God Stage was finally decided at this time. The Xuanzhen Sect's Transformation God Stage killed 57 people and seriously injured more than 200 people, killing 66 people in the Transformation Stage of Shao Ze's country and seriously injuring more than 200 people.
More than three hundred people.
In the end, the fighting strength of both sides was over 180 people from the Xuanzhen Sect, half of whom were slightly injured; the fighting strength of the Shaoze Kingdom was less than 160 people, and nearly a hundred of them were slightly injured.
The Shaoze Kingdom had to retreat.
However, the Kingdom of Shaoze retreated from the transformation stage, and the Xuanzhen Sect could not catch up. Everyone was exhausted, and they still needed to take care of the injured on their own side. The most important thing was that a large number of transformations appeared in the distance.
Divine level masters and Xuanzhen sect masters must seize the time to rest!
Lu Xuanyu wanted to use naval cannons to support the battle in the Transformation Stage, but now when fighting in the Transformation Stage, he was far away from the battleship. He suffered a lot and had already gained experience.
In the fifth 10 minutes of the decisive battle, that is, around 8:20 in the morning, the Xiaoyao Sect and the Sea Dragon Fleet appeared on the southeast sea!
"All the transformed gods enter the battleship!" Lu Xuanyu shouted. The transformed gods quickly entered the battleship, and the fleet quickly made adjustments.
The damaged warships immediately turned around and sailed northwest, preparing to return to the port; thus, the Weihai Fleet was left with 22 steel warships.
There were 72 steel battleships when we set out in the morning, but now there are only 22 steel battleships left! Even if all are calculated based on the price of 10,000-ton battleships and 60 million high-grade spiritual stones, a wealth of 3 billion high-grade spiritual stones has been lost. If calculated
In terms of war pensions, various ammunition, warships, etc. in the later period, these losses amounted to more than 4 billion!
The actual loss will only be higher!
The damaged warships with severely damaged combat effectiveness left, but all the warships did not leave!
A warship is doomed to be a consumable from the moment it goes to sea for combat! It's great to be able to go back, but if you can't go back... you can't go back.
At this time, a large number of Nascent Soul Stage began to exert their strength, using magic to push the warship forward, came to the side of the warship, and began to replenish ammunition, spiritual stones, etc. for the warship. The naval officers on the warship also supplemented many battleship superstructure encounters on the warship.
Due to the crazy attack, sailors, naval officers, etc. suffered heavy losses.
It took about ten minutes to replenish the battleship. Even the masters in the transformation stage acted as transport workers.
At this time, the Xiaoyao faction's Hailong fleet was already close to 20 kilometers away and was about to enter the combat zone.
The remaining 65 warships of the Jinghai Fleet of the Kingdom of Shaoze are quickly fleeing forward. These 65 warships raised the flag of the Kingdom of Shaoze. Xiao Yunlong stood on the bow of the ship, commanding the battle (escape) while
Wave to the front.
In front, the commander of the Sea Dragon Fleet, Ting Songzi, stood coolly at the bow of the ship, and beside him was the deputy commander, Yan Zhen.
Yan Zhen was the former Commander-in-Chief of Surabaya Port in the Langya Kingdom. The name of the Sea Dragon Fleet also started from the Langya Kingdom, and was later taken over by the Xiaoyao Sect and continued to develop.
In the Sea Dragon Fleet, the true commander-in-chief is revealed. In fact, Yan Zhen is not everyone who understands naval warfare, especially in this era of steel battleships; Ting Songzi is more like a supervisor of the army, mainly commander of the Transformation Stage and so on.
At this time, Song Zi explained to Yan Zhen and rushed out with the God Transformation Stage. However, these God Transformation Stages did not rush forward all at once, but only took to the air for defense and waited until the battle started before trying to take off.
, it’s a bit dangerous.
Listening to Songzi spinning in the sky, he looked at the more than 500 energetic Transformation Stages on his side, and immediately decided to charge towards the Weihai Fleet ahead.
More than 500 people in the stage of becoming gods quickly crossed a distance of 20 kilometers. At a distance of three kilometers from the battleship, they used magic weapons, talismans, seals, etc. to attack. Some even mastered magical powers and launched a wave of attacks on the battleship.
It's just that after crossing three kilometers, the power of magic weapons, talismans, magical powers, etc. is reduced too much. After three kilometers, these attacks are difficult to break through the solid defense of the warship. However, the warship is still unable to block such attacks.
On the battleship of the Weihai Fleet, Lu Xuanyu calmly looked at the Transformation Stage three kilometers ahead, with a sneer on his lips and mocking coward, come closer if you can, the effective attack range of the crossbow is three kilometers!
The defensive barrier on the battleship was strengthened to the maximum, and the naval guns slowly raised their heads. The battleship, which had completed its supplies, was ready to conquer the sea again.
The next moment, artillery fire spurted out, and shells rained down on the fleeing Jinghai Fleet ahead.
"You guys, there are no more shells!" Lu Xuanyu sneered as he looked at the Jinghai Fleet in front of him who was fleeing and dodging in embarrassment. When he was replenishing supplies on his side, the opponent's attacks were pitiful. It is certain that the opponent's ammunition should be very little.
I don't know if it is completely gone or if it is left behind.
However, in this current situation, it is unlikely to save the situation.
"Forget it, no matter whether I save a hand or not, I will just send you to the sea!" Lu Xuanyu ignored the attack of the god-transformation stage in the sky, and the attack from three kilometers away could not break the defense of the warship. As for the remaining warships,
Just start retreating. In the coming battle, the warships can no longer help.
The warships and damaged warships began to retreat. However, the Xiaoyao faction did not let go, and still sent more than two hundred incarnations to pursue them.
A barrier was raised on the surface of the warship, and some incarnation stages stood within the barrier of the warship, attacking outwards to fight for a way for the warship to survive.
Lu Xuanyu took one look at the situation on the warship and stopped paying attention and could not be distracted. The top priority was to completely destroy the Jinghai Fleet of the Kingdom of Shaoze.
If you miss this opportunity, you don't know if there will be another one. Especially this time, both sides suffered heavy losses, and I'm afraid they won't be able to organize another naval battle.
During the battle, the Xiaoyao faction's reinforcements, the Hailong Fleet, finally reached a distance of 13 kilometers! This distance is the limit of the precise distance of the Dayang Group's steel battleships.
All the gun barrels of the Sea Dragon fleet burst out with flames. Regardless of whether they were Ocean Group warships, they all began to attack.
The maximum attack range of naval guns is actually more than 20 kilometers. The maximum range of the main naval guns on the Ocean Group warships even exceeds 40 kilometers. It is only a precise attack distance, that is, an attack distance with a hit rate of more than 5%. The maximum limit is
13 kilometers.
In fact, with the development of the navy, and as everyone becomes more familiar with and masters the technology of steel battleships, the hit rate of battleships is... declining!
Because everyone knows how to dodge and maneuver!
Lu Xuanyu commanded the battleship to make a snake-like maneuver and continue to sprint forward.
Ahead, the Sea Dragon Fleet was in high spirits, with 300 warships and 2,000 warships covering the sea in a mighty manner, like a steel wall coming towards you.
At this time, Lu Xuanyu's eyes were particularly bright and sharp, and strategies flew through his mind one after another, and he finally settled on a few of them:
If the warship turns around immediately, it will form a rout and a pursuit and escape battle. Turning around will inevitably lose speed. The warship is bulky. Even if it turns around in a large arc, it will still lose speed, space and distance. This is very dangerous.
!
If you are bitten because of this, you will really die without a place to die!
And once he moves, none of the warships in the rear who are trying to escape from the battlefield will be able to escape.
The most important thing is that you are just trying to be a bait. If you turn around and go south again, it will be too obvious. You must not mistake the enemy for a fool.
On the contrary, if you sprint forward...and then go south at the same speed, the enemy will be fooled.
But just charging forward like this, with 22 warships on our side, charging head-on with more than 300 warships and more than 2,000 warships... it seems that he will die very bravely.
However, it is not impossible;
Just want to take risks!
Lu Xuanyu's eyes flashed and he immediately ordered: "The battleship moves due south and passes the opponent's left wing."
The 22 warships immediately adjusted their direction. Previously, they were heading southeast, a little south, about 25° south by east. At this time, they adjusted their direction slightly and headed due south.
The Weihai fleet gradually opened up the distance from the Jinghai fleet of the Kingdom of Shaoze, but the distance between the two was still within the attack range, and the Weihai battleship still did not give up the attack. At this time, the Jinghai fleet was a toothless tiger, and it must
Take the opportunity to kill some battleships!
Not only that, as the Sea Dragon Fleet of the Xiaoyao Sect approached, the Jinghai Fleet of the Shaoze Kingdom was also asked to slow down and turn around. You cannot attack our formation. This gave Lu Xuanyu and the Weihai Fleet another opportunity.
But at this time, the Xiaoyao faction's fleet also began to attack, and Lu Xuanyu had to command the fleet to make a snake-like maneuver, and he also lost a lot of hit rate.
About ten minutes later, the Jinghai Fleet of the Kingdom of Shaoze finally stopped and turned around; the number of their warships had dropped below 50, with only 45 warships left. Most of them were in miserable condition.
At this time, the Weihai fleet also lost one warship again, and the remaining 21 warships passed by the left wing of the Xiaoyao faction's Hailong fleet. The distance between the two fleets had widened from the nearest 8 kilometers to about 10 kilometers.
, the distance is getting farther and farther.
The 21 warships of the Weihai Fleet are lined up in a row, with each warship more than 300 meters apart; however, the warships are not in a straight line, but arranged in a curve, and their forward direction also presents a snake-like maneuver.
This arrangement makes it more difficult for the opponent to aim and focus fire.
Of course, such an arrangement will also reduce your attack accuracy.
At this time, the only ones directly facing the Weihai Fleet were the three rows of battleships and warships on the left wing of the Hailong Fleet, which totaled no more than thirty battleships and a hundred warships.
The fleets on both sides were attacking frantically, especially the Xiaoyao faction. They no longer cared about salvos and attacked completely when they were saturated. The same was true for the Weihai fleet. The barrels of both sides were a little red-hot!
Lu Xuanyu began to calculate the time for the two fleets to completely stagger:
The 21 warships of the Weihai Fleet were towed a full 10 kilometers away from each other. The length of the warships was about 200 meters. Now the distance between the warships is about 300 meters. The 21 warships were towed 10 kilometers away, which is already very compact.
The formation of the Sea Dragon fleet on the opposite side is relatively spacious. The distance between the front and rear of the warships is 500-600 meters; the distance between the warships is about 300 meters. The distance between the front and rear of the fleet is a full span of 30 kilometers.
The two fleets wanted to completely stagger each other, and it took about twenty minutes.
