Chapter 202: A Little Try
Lin Yiyang had never seen such a battle before! His previous understanding of war was only something that existed on paper, but the gap between the imaginary war scene and the reality was so large that he couldn't digest it for a while.
Just now he was already frightened when he looked at the black and oppressive enemy fleet on the sea, and now when a rolling thunderous cannon sounded, he was even more shocked to the point that his ears were ringing, his face was tense, and his legs and stomachs were a little tendoned.
Even he was a little dumbfounded, shocked by the power of this big killing weapon, and his hands involuntarily grasped the handrails of the arrow tower, for fear that his legs would fall and sit down.
When Yu Xiaotian turned his head to speak to him, he reacted after a while, and said with a sigh: "What did the big boss say?" Didn't hear under it! ”
Yu Xiaotian smiled, stretched out his hand and patted Lin Yiyang's shoulder and said, "Mr. Lin, don't be nervous, it's safe here at this time, Chu Cailao's cannon can't reach us, they can only be beaten at this time!" It's the first time you've seen this battle, and it's good to sit down without being scared! Hehe! If you can't stand it, go down and rest first, I'm here! ”
Lin Yiyang was quite ashamed of his performance, and shook his head forcefully and said: "Thank you for your concern, there is nothing wrong here, and it is the first time I have seen such a scene in my heart, and I am really shocked in my heart, which makes the big boss laugh!" ”
"It doesn't matter! No one is an immortal, they are born not afraid of anything, knowing that Lu Dao is afraid means that we are still alive, if we don't know Lu Dao for the first time, then we are not human! Mr. Lin is a scholar, of course, he never thought that he would see such a scene one day, now is not the bloody time, after they land for a while, it is the bloodiest moment! If it is not expected, the corpses of Chu Cai's old men will cover the beach outside the village, and it will be a headache when it is cleaned up! Yu Xiaotian is often when it is time to really do it, but he will calm down, and at this time he has relaxed and can talk and laugh again.
At this time, the second round of shelling of the sea wolf batteries began again, and a huge sound came from east to west, which made the feet numb, and no one could hear anyone for a while, Yu Xiaotian turned his face to the sea again.
This time, after the first calibration, the gunners of each gun improved their accuracy a little, and several small boats that ran to the front were shot one after another, and they disintegrated on the surface of the sea with a loud chatter, and the minions on the boats fell into the sea one after another, swimming towards the nearby ships, and some of them even swam directly to the sea because of their good water quality.
And this time, two more big boats were hit by cannonballs, and the sawdust on the boat flew wildly, and the angry Chu Cailao's subordinates were screaming, but there was nothing they could do.
Because of the distance here, the sea wolf's cannon hit far and accurately, but the guns on their ship could not reach the sea wolf's village, so they could only stare and be beaten at this time, but there was no way to fight back.
Yu Xiaotian laughed a few times, pointed to Chu Cailao's ships on the sea, and shouted to the people around him: "See, good fight!" It's not in vain that I usually let them practice every day, and now it's finally paying off! I'm sure this is just the beginning, and we'll see, the bigger and more accurate! ”
Liu Wang also stretched out his head to look at the sea, and when he saw an enemy ship broken by the bombardment, he vigorously patted the railing and shouted: "Good fight!" Pretty! Ha Lu Ha! Brothers, do your best! It's good to sink all these bastards! ”
At this time, after seeing the performance of the gunners, the other subordinates on the wall who had not done anything for the time being also shouted loudly.
At this time, the leaders of the forts felt that their faces were light, and they praised their gunners slightly, and shouted to them: "You guys work hard, but our big boss is here to watch it in person, no one can fucking embarrass us, the big boss gives us such a good guy, if we still can't do it well, who the fuck still has the face to get paid?" It's better to raise a pig than to raise a pig! Aim! Give Lao Tzu a hard beating, and send them all to see the Dragon King! ……”
When the gunners of each battery heard this, they cheered like chickens and began to reload like flies...... Next, the guns of each fort came and went, constantly spitting flames outward, and one after another cannonballs whistled out of the barrels and smashed into Chu Cailao's fleet.
And after the warm-up, the gunners of the guns aimed more and more accurately, although there were many old ships on the sea, but they also hit more and more fiercely, almost after a while they would hit one or two enemy ships, at this time the small boats were no longer their main target, and then the big ships that came over became their best targets.
People who are familiar with the war know that compared with the army artillery and the naval gun, there is a more stable launch platform, especially in this era, the naval gun does not have a modern balance device, the ship gun is in a state of relative motion when it is fired, and the artillery accuracy will become quite poor once it exceeds a certain distance, which is also the reason why the effective range of the naval gun in this era is relatively low, not that their artillery is not far, but that they are not accurate at all if they are far away, even if it is the advanced navy of Western countries, The distance of naval battles is often limited to 400 meters, and even close to 100 meters before firing, so as to ensure the accuracy and power of their naval guns.
However, the land artillery does not have the unstable factors caused by the shaking of the hull, their feet are on the ground, and the guns are placed on a stable basis, they do not have to consider the impact of these unstable factors, they only need to aim the guns as much as possible, and reduce the impact of the gunpowder loading on the range of the guns, so that the shooting accuracy of the land artillery is much higher than that of the naval guns.
In particular, after the sea wolf adopted the iron fan casting cannon method, the quality of the cannon cast was stable, and the door and the front sight were also cast, engraved with a ruler, and the gun chamber was carefully bored, and the error was much smaller than that of the general mud fan casting cannon.
In addition, because the tolerance of the artillery casting is reduced, the tolerance of the shell casting is also reduced, and the shell is loaded with a piece of wet linen cloth to fill the gap between the shell and the cannon chamber, which reduces the deflation of the gap between the cannon chamber and the shell, so that although the Seawolf's artillery is about the same as the Hongyi cannon now cast in Western countries on the surface, the shooting accuracy and firing range are more than an order of magnitude.
So once the gunner finds the feeling, the accuracy of the shot will be quite high, because they have minimized the various factors that affect the accuracy of the gun's shooting, if this is not accurate, their leaders are not rough in their words, Yu Xiaotian is really not as affordable as raising some pigs!
Therefore, during the next period of Chu Cai's old fleet's beaching and landing, the gunners of the Sea Wolf Department can be said to have given full play to their advantages, and the guns kept taking turns firing, and the ships under Chu Cai's old men continued to sink or be damaged on the sea.
As a result of such an artillery bombardment, Chu Cai's jaw was about to fall to the ground as he watched from afar, and he watched his ships be destroyed or damaged by the sea wolf's shells one after another on the sea before they rushed to land, pointing at the sea wolf village and shouting: "Damn! Why are their cannons so accurate? Does this still make people live? ”
The people next to him listened to Chu Cai's old question, and their mouths were also bitter, today they really experienced what it is like to be beaten by someone on a horse, not to mention Chu Cailao, everyone here was stunned by the precise shelling of the sea wolf at this time.
From the first cannon sound of the sea wolf to the present, they have all stared at the friendly ships on their side have been destroyed by other people's cannons one after another, especially those single sloops, under such shelling, it can almost be said that one cannon is one, and a cannonball is basically declared to be reimbursed, even those larger ships are also unable to parry, as long as the hull is hit by a cannonball, you can see that the ship will fly up a piece of debris, and then a chaotic scolding and exclamation came.
And they saw that there was a rushing boat, less than 100 meters away from the shore, suffered several shots in a row, even the mast was broken on the spot, the hull of the ship rolled badly, the hull began to hit horizontally, this time it became a live target, the gunners on the side of the sea wolf stared at it and began to fight, the boat was full of huge holes, and suddenly the boat flipped on the sea with a bang, and after a while it sank not far from the shore.
They had also encountered the gunboats of the Taisi people at sea before, and they had also seen the power of the Hongyi cannons, and a salvo shot broke up one of their boats on the spot, and frightened them into scattering immediately.
The shock at that time was somewhat similar to that of now, but the situation today was even worse than what they encountered at that time, after all, there was one of the gunboats they had encountered at the beginning, and they only retreated after surrounding it, and the loss was only one boat, and the other ships did not suffer too many shells.
But today they were sunk in the sea water by these red cannons of the sea wolf one after another, which made them start to feel afraid, and they found that the more forward, the more accurate the sea wolf's cannon, whoever ran in the front, who was the first to be unlucky, at this time at the beginning of the rush to rush forward a few small boats, at this time only two or three were still struggling to move forward, the rest of the few are all falling apart at this time, turning over and sinking, and the accomplices on the boat who were excited just now are dead and wounded, There were also quite a few people splashing in the water.
They really couldn't figure out where this surnamed Yu got so many Hongyi cannons, and if they continued to fight, they would probably become the next victims.
(It seems that there is no monthly pass!) I didn't get one yesterday! Keep asking for a monthly pass today! Thank you, brothers, for helping me out! )
