Chapter 1181: Demonstrations
Hongyi said with a palpitating look: "It's very thrilling, I was about to cry in fear at that time, Sister Xueqin, you don't know, I was the only one at that time, I was found after I caught the emperor of Liusang, and I was surrounded by many people......"
Then, the red clothes danced and recounted the incident, of course, she was scared to cry without mentioning it. Yang Yi sat in the chair by the window, smiling, listening to the red clothes showing off his exploits, looking down from time to time, looking for the marks left by the farm fish, and at the same time, guessing the relationship between Yuan Fang and Xueqin.
The battle in the air has basically ended, most of the airships of the Liusang Empire have been shot down, and a small part of them have scattered and fled, the number is not very large, about forty or fifty, Xueqin did not order the pursuit, it is not the time, and there is no such experience, anyway, the Liusang Empire is basically finished now.
Xueqin ordered ten fighters and one bomber to stay on the outskirts of the Liusang Imperial Capital to rescue the survivors of the downed fighters, although the performance of the airships of the Liusang Empire is not as good as the fighters of the Dongsheng Empire, especially the weapons, but they are numerous, and the crowd tactics still have some effect, the two sides are relatively accelerated, and the artillery of the Dongsheng Empire occupies the lead, but the artillery is not omnipotent, and he also has a disadvantage that the time to reload ammunition is too long, after a long time of training, It also takes at least twenty seconds to replace a shell, which is why Yuan Fang will be equipped with two guns in front when designing a fighter, the two guns can shoot in turns, maintain a steady and coherent rate of fire, and continue to suppress the enemy, but even so, it is still impossible to clear all the enemies before entering the opponent's range, so that four fighters were hit by the enemy aircraft's fire oil incendiary crossbow arrows and crashed, fortunately, the flight personnel have been systematically parachuted training, and the fighter is not an airbag burst, There is plenty of time to escape before crashing.
It was not a very fierce air battle, plus the raid battle in Changqingdao, the Dongsheng Empire's side lost a total of five fighters, two bombers were damaged, but not serious, and the small boat was not damaged this time because it almost did not participate in the battle and was always guarding around the flagship.
The task of rescuing the surviving pilots is not simple, it is not as simple as lowering the altitude and throwing a rope down, you know, this is the outskirts of the Liusang Imperial Capital, your ground troops have not yet arrived, the city and the outside of the city are all people from the Liusang Empire, if the parachuted pilot is found and found by the army outside the city, it is quite difficult to rescue, and the fighter cannot easily reduce the altitude, if it is aimed at the opponent's heavy crossbow, the consequences are self-evident.
In addition to saving people, Xueqin also issued a task, that is, to destroy the wreckage of the fighter, the four fighters that crashed in the first battle just now, two of them ignited the shells in the cabin to protect themselves because of the fire, and there was nothing useful left, and the other two fighters The strong wind that fell after the airbag was broken extinguished the flames, so the shells and gunpowder in the cabin are still generally intact, especially the artillery, that thing fell from such a high place, and the gun chamber is likely to be deformed due to impact, even if it is not deformed, it can no longer be used, But for the Liusang Empire, if he got these things, he would have a certain understanding of artillery, and even be able to successfully replicate gunpowder after a period of time, Yuan Fang had no doubt about the ability of those geniuses in this world, so, no matter what, the wreckage of the fighter must be destroyed.
At the beginning of the period, the people were surprised how the airships of the Dongsheng Empire came here, when they saw their hundreds of airships assembled to meet the battle, the momentum and courage inspired everyone's hearts, however, when the battle began, the air force of the Liusang Empire has been suppressed to the death, and in a short battle of less than an hour, the air force of the Liusang Empire suffered heavy losses, and the other party was still alive and well, until the air force of the Liusang Empire was defeated and fled, Both the people and the soldiers in the imperial capital of the Liusang Empire looked in disbelief in the direction of the air force's escape, and they all had a sense of disappointment and fear of being abandoned.
The gates of the imperial capital of the Liusang Empire were closed, and the city defense army was waiting for it, but what was the use of this? They have also studied air defense weapons after they have their own airships, but their insight and vision have restricted their development, heavy crossbows, after all, the range is limited, their air defense weapons are just to increase the elevation angle of the ballista, the range height is less than a thousand meters, and there are not many of them, such anti-aircraft firepower is better than nothing for them who have lost air supremacy.
The power of the artillery of the Dongsheng Imperial Air Force was seen by all those who witnessed this air battle, the terrifying explosion and irresistible power were deeply rooted in everyone's hearts, and the strong walls they were proud of before were now difficult to stop the enemy's footsteps, what kind of mood was this? Despair?
Yuan Fang pointed to the city gate in front of the emperor and sneered: "Xueqin, come there with a few cannons, let them see the true power of our artillery, be sober and sober, and know how big the gap with us is." ”
Xueqin answered the order, the firing compartment door on the port side opened, the bomber reduced its speed and altitude, and remained suspended in the air at an altitude of seven or eight hundred meters two thousand meters north of the city gate, and the five guns were loaded with ammunition, this time using the most powerful shell of a single body, with a fuse of two thousand meters.
The length of the fuze determines the explosion time after the cannon is discharged, after many tests, Yuan Fang, or the blacksmiths made two kinds of shells, one fuse tube is slightly longer, the fuse inside can probably control the shell to explode at a distance of about 3,000 meters after the discharge, and the other fuse tube is shorter, the shell is about 2,000 meters away from the distance time and then explodes, both kinds of shells are equipped with fighters and bombers to deal with the enemy at different distances and the ever-changing battlefield.
This time, Yuan Fang and they used a two-meter fuse shell, the target, the north gate of the Liusang Empire.
The imperial capital is the center of a country's politics and power, and it is the most prosperous place in the economy, the city gate of the imperial capital is made of the hardest iron wood, which is fifteen centimeters thick, and there is a layer of silver metal and orange-yellow huge rivets outside, every time the city gate is opened, it takes more than a dozen people to push it open, which shows how strong the city gate will be.
On the tower of the city gate, the general of the city defense army saw that the flagship of the opponent's air force hovering not far away, his heart tightened, and he picked up the telescope to check, when he saw the black cannon muzzle appear, the direction was exactly where he was, and he was immediately shocked, dropped the telescope and turned to run.
