Alien Empire Total War

"Where did the Lumontese get so many new warships? It would be incredible if they built all of them in the past five months or so!"

No one can return to General Zelos Bachman's question, and he doesn't think anyone will have the answer. As the Vice Admiral of the Republic of Enkelland, Zelos Bachman does not say that he knows the intelligence of the Rumont Navy well, but The minimum information is still known. According to the information he knows, the navy of the Lumen people has been severely damaged in the previous battle, and the ones who fled back are basically small warships. How could there be so many medium-sized warships? Battleship?

Even if the Lumens could build warships after that, their navy forcibly broke through the Lumens mine defense line a month or two ago, and shelled the shipyards and ports along the coast of Lumen. In the case of destruction, the Rumen people can still build so many medium-sized warships.

Bachmann didn’t dwell on this issue all the time. He then began to make pre-war deployments calmly. He conveyed orders to the surrounding warships through the flag bearer and semaphore, asking each ship to line up the most common one-word snake formation in naval battles. The side of the ship's side faces the enemy ship.

At the same time as the formation of the Enclave navy, the imperial navy that was heading towards them also formed a serpentine formation, turning the side of the ship towards the enemy ships. On the side without the enemy, the eight mortar ships were also nervously Loaded with ammunition, the sailor who was responsible for observing the position of the enemy ship climbed on top of the ship's pole, observed the position of the enemy ship, and reported to the gunner on the deck. With the help of the sailor overhead, the artillery quickly determined the mortar. shooting angle.

Next, the eight mortar ships opened fire first, and the artillerymen ignited the lead wires behind the mortars and sent the blooming bullets filled with gunpowder into the air-these eight gunshots were like horns that opened the prelude to the battle, marking the beginning of the battle. The outbreak of another naval battle in the Proden Sea.

After the blossoming shells fired by the eight mortar ships flew out of the muzzle, they flew staggeringly in the sky, crossed a beautiful arc, and flew to the enemy fleet nearly a thousand meters away. Their target was very clear. That is the secondary flagship with the largest target among the enemy ships!

call out--

Bergman on the second-level flagship deck only heard a few weird whistling noises in the air, and then saw a few slow-moving black dots flying in the sky. The shells fell from the sky and exploded in the air dozens of meters before hitting the battleship!

boom boom-

After the blooming bomb exploded in mid-air, the sparks and shrapnel generated shrouded everything underneath like a goddess scattered flowers. The sparks directly ignited the sails hanging on the boat pole, and an unlucky man climbed on top of the boat pole The sailor was directly blown away by the impact of the explosion of the bomb, and screamed and fell heavily from an altitude of tens of meters, and fell on the sea next to the battleship.

The first round of shooting was more inclined to experimentation. The gunners who operated the mortars then adjusted the firing of the artillery and fired the shells again. At the same time, the warships of both sides were also moving towards each other while maintaining high speed.

The artillery deployed on the front deck of the battleship took the lead to fire at the enemy ship. This artillery can only be used to shoot the target in front. Therefore, when the two ships are engaged, they will fire each other through the artillery on the front deck, and they will rush through the front deck. After the range of the two sides, the warships of the two sides faced each other with a distance of hundreds of meters.

The long snake array formed by the warships of the two sides actually has a certain arc. The two sides sailed clockwise around the sea surface hundreds of meters in the middle. After the broadside turned towards the enemy, dozens of artillery deployed on the broadside slammed. A salvo was fired, and the huge recoil caused the entire battleship to sway to the other side.

The artillery shells fired by the salvo roared through a distance of hundreds of meters and smashed into the opposing fleet. After flying hundreds of meters, the strength and accuracy of the artillery shells were also weakened a lot. At least half of the shells smashed into the fleet. In the sea, the other half hit the hull of the enemy ship.

Bergman's second-level flagship became the main target of the fire because of its more conspicuous target. Staying on the open deck, he only dared to grab the rope wrapped around the pole, for fear that he would fall unsteadily. fly out. The battleship under his feet was continuously hit by shells flying from a distance, and the side of the hull facing the enemy ship quickly became devastated under the shelling of the enemy ship, and was smashed into several potholes, broken wooden boards and sawdust Falling into the sea, it floats with the waves.

In addition to the broadside shelling coming from a distance, they also have to be careful of the mortar shells falling in the air. Compared with solid bullets, mortars are more harmful. As long as the sailors cannot put out the flames on the sails as soon as possible, the fire will quickly expand and burn the entire sails quickly.

Not only that, the solid bullet may also explode after hitting the deck. Bergman witnessed a case with his own eyes - a flowering bullet did not explode in the air, but directly hit a sixth-level ship by inertia. On the deck of the ship, a few seconds later, the shell exploded, killing dozens of sailors on the spot, and the flying shrapnel also killed more people. A fire broke out on the deck of the sixth-class ship and had to stop to put out the fire and rescue the wounded.

The warships of the two sides gradually drew closer in the continuous shelling of each other. After the distance was shortened, the gunners on the Imperial warships quickly replaced the solid rounds with chain rounds - a terrible type of shell, which was composed of two It is composed of small iron **** connected by iron chains. After being shot by the artillery, the high-speed moving chain bullets can easily tear the poles of the enemy ships~www.readwn.com~ Even the thick poles can be torn apart. Not to mention human flesh and blood.

After the Imperial Navy used chain bombs, the battlefield became bloodier. The chain bombs that were shot out made a sharp whistling sound in the air, and the two iron **** connected by the chain were also constantly rotating at high speed, flying into the enemy ship. Behind the deck, cut off the body of the Enkelan sailor standing on it!

That's a real cut in the middle!

After the chain shot flew by, the deck of the Enjun's warship became very bloody, and sailors who were cut off in the middle could be seen everywhere. The sailors who were split in two did not even die on the spot, they were lying on the deck soaked in blood. , let out a mournful and tragic wailing, and reached out to hope that the other sailors could save him, but unfortunately, even if the gods went off in person, they could not save their lives.

The Enkelans responded quickly, and they also used terrifying chain bombs. While killing the enemy sailors, they also intended to tear the sails of the enemy ship and slow it down.

For a time, the sea between the two battleships was almost filled with high-speed chain bombs.
