Chapter Ninety-Seven: Battleship Duel VIII
I'm too busy, I'm tired every day, I don't have much time to code, I'm sorry to all my friends here! I hope that all friends will continue to support this book, thank you!
On the battleship Tangren, Li Fang stared at the cruiser through the binoculars with his eyebrows locked, and as the distance got closer and closer, Li Fang gave the order to open fire. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Rumble! Rumble! This time, only the two main guns in the bow of the ship fired, the huge muzzles glowing with orange-red flames, and the two shells smashed towards the Slender Man with a sharp whistling sound.
"Oh God! The Chinese Navy opened fire so far away? Norden was shocked again, in Nuodeng's mind, the best firing distance for battleships is generally three kilometers away, of course, the closer the distance, the higher the accuracy.
Nuo Deng didn't expect the Tang Ren to fire again at a distance of more than 10,000 meters, which made Nuo Deng a little surprised. Even if the Tang Dynasty battleship of the Huaxia Navy has a huge cannon, it is undoubtedly whimsical to want to hit the opponent at a distance of more than 10,000 meters. As for the cruiser Brave being hit by the Don with a few shells, Norden thought it was just the luck of the Don Man.
The shells fell about 300 meters from the sea and exploded two columns of water that soared into the sky.
"Up 0.4, left 0.6." The Donman's gunners quickly calculated the best angle of fire through the first test firing.
Dozens of seconds later, the Don opened fire again. Soon, the shell exploded in the sea about 50 meters from the Slenderman.
"God! How can the artillery technology of the Chinese Navy be so accurate? It's only been two rounds of shelling, how can you increase the accuracy so much? Norden said in surprise.
"Your Excellency Commander, do you want to fire back?" The adjutant asked worriedly. According to such an accuracy of shelling, if the Tang Ren of the Huaxia Navy comes to two more rounds of shelling, the Slender Man will definitely be hit. With the weak armor of the Slender Man, he was hit by the huge cannonball of the Don Man, and the fool knew the fate of the Slender Man.
Nuo Deng stared at his adjutant with a little contempt, and then asked with contempt: "With our naval guns, at a distance of more than 10,000 meters, are you sure to hit the other party?" If you have this artillery technique, I will give you the position of commander at once. ”
Hahaha! When several Dutch soldiers heard this, they all burst into laughter.
Although the naval guns can also send shells to a distance of tens of thousands of meters, with the Dutch artillery technology, it is even more difficult to hit the opponent at a distance of more than 10,000 meters. Both Commander Norden and the Dutch soldiers knew very well in their hearts the best firing distance for the Slenderman. To fire at such a distance is simply a waste of shells, a waste of the physical strength of the gunner.
"Full throttle, lean in!" Norden ordered.
"Yes!"
Both Nodeng and the gunnery officer knew very well that it was best to fire at a distance of 6,000 to 8,000 meters to hit the enemy, so as to ensure that they could effectively hit the enemy with as little waste of shells as possible.
The captain of the Loha saw that the Tang Man had begun to fire at the flagship Slender Man, and he couldn't help but get anxious, once the Slender Man was sunk, and the Brave had been injured, it was absolutely wishful thinking to sink the Tang Man of the Huaxia Navy with only one cruiser on the Loha. It had to be two cruisers united so that there would be a chance of victory.
"Lean to the Slender Man and protect the flagship!" The captain of the Loja ordered.
"Yes!"
Rumble! Rumble! It was already the third round of shelling of the Don, and the shells were getting closer and closer to the cruiser Slender Husband, and one shell even landed only 20 meters away from the cruiser Slender Husband. The huge explosion whipped up the seawater, which soaked the clothes of many of the Dutch sailors on the deck of the Slender Man.
Nuo Deng's whole body was also wet, and at this time, I saw that his brows were tightly knit, and his face was full of worry.
The Tang Dynasty battleship of the Huaxia Navy not only far surpassed the Dutch Navy in terms of the caliber and tonnage of its main guns, but also seemed to be inferior to the Royal Dutch Navy in terms of performance and artillery technology. If this development continues, several of his cruisers may be wiped out.
Seeing that many of the sailors on the deck were already in a look of horror, Norden ordered: "The bow guns of the ship fire at me!" "Nodeng wanted to suppress the fears of these sailors by opening fire, and Nodeng, as an experienced naval officer, knew these tactics very well.
Boom! As soon as the gunners of the Slender Man received the order, they fired the first round of shells.
Rumble! Rumble! The fourth round of shelling of the Don began.
This time, however, the Slender Man was not so lucky, as a cannonball landed on the Slender Boat's ship, and the huge explosion blew away several Dutch sailors at that time, and the air wave of the explosion swept away more than 10 Dutch sailors. The side of the ship was also blasted open by a violent explosion, and the sea water suddenly poured into the cabin.
"Oh! Damn it! Hurry up and close the watertight warehouse! Norden cried out in horror.
Boom! The Don made a fifth round of shelling. When the gunners saw that the Slender Man had been hit by a shell, they became as excited as if they had been beaten with blood. After some quick calculations in his mind, he gave the order to fire again.
"Well done, sisters! Give me a hard week to kill those Dutch devils! After Li Fang saw a cannonball hit the Slender Man, she almost jumped up with excitement.
Rumble! Rumble! The sixth round of shelling of the Don began, and this time it was no longer two main guns that fired, but all six of them.
This time, Lady Luck no longer favored the Slender Husband, and two huge cannonballs landed on the Slender Husband cruiser. A shell slammed into the foredeck of the Slender Husband, and the huge explosion tore a hole several meters into the foredeck of the Slender Husband.
More than a dozen of the Dutch sailors standing on the foredeck were summoned by God to serve as men. A huge blast of air swept the planks off the deck, and more than a dozen Dutch sailors were thrown to the surface.
Another shell landed next to the chimney of the Slender Man, and two huge chimneys were blown up and collapsed by the shell. When the chimney collapsed, several Dutch sailors were also killed.
"Your Excellency, Commander! chimneys..."
"I know, all the main guns, give me a hard return shot!" Norden ordered with a horrified expression. Although Norden also knew that the cruiser Slender Man was firing at such a distance, and it was completely impossible to hit the enemy. However, at this time, there is no longer so much control, and only by firing can the morale of the sailors on the Slender Man be saved.
"Yes!"
Boom! Not only did the Slender Man fire with all its might, but even the Loha, which was approaching the Slender Man, opened fire at the same time. Suddenly, a huge explosion was heard everywhere on the sea.
"Hey! Hey! The Dutch went crazy! Li Fang saw that the two cruisers of the Dutch Navy were firing, and he was not worried at all, but a sense of pleasure rose. With just a few more shells, it will be possible to send the Slender Man to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish. The rest of the Loja is just a piece of fat, and the Tang Ren can eat it as much as it wants.
