Think about what started two days ago, from the probability of ship failure, to energy consumption, to morale, to how well soldiers sleep...... All of them are starting to develop on the "unlucky" side!

Gan Ning had already guessed something......

After all, for Guo Jia's ability, Chu State's strategist group has also analyzed it for a long time.

"Weakened 20% of combat power out of thin air, right? This intensity...... It seems that the 'ghost scheme' of the Wei State is ready to be a ghost! Gan Ning had already judged it.

However, this did not affect Gan Ning's belief in a decisive battle with the Wei army.

Purely from the perspective of this victory, maybe it would be best to delay for a few days and wait for Guo Jia to die violently, but from the perspective of grand strategy, Gan Ning actually can't ask for the current situation!

Now the gap between the two sides has certainly been narrowed a little, but Gan Ning, who understands some of the negative effects of Guo Jia's ability, knows very well that in the next few days, the Wei army will inevitably choose a decisive battle with the Chu navy.

It's all in one battle......

It is not only Guo Jia's wish, but also what Gan Ning, or Chu Guo wants to see!

If it drags on until Guo Jia dies violently, the current Wei government and opposition, the patchwork naval army, will inevitably be cautious, even if it can win, what if the family is disbanded on the spot?

Once the other party is beaten to pieces, Chu Guo will also feel a headache - there are indeed too many of them!

In particular, there are many gatekeeper smugglers......

Usually, it is difficult to have this kind of opportunity to catch all these rats in the gutter.

And most importantly, in Gan Ning's opinion...... Narrowing the gap between the two sides?

It is indeed narrowed, but after narrowing, there is also a substantial gap!

Therefore, the "Armageddon" became the common will of both sides, and a sea war began......

It's just that less than half a day after the start of the war, after the ships on both sides approached or had already entered the warring waters, Guo Jia began to regret it, and even regretted it to the point of confusion.

What is a giant ship that is half a mile long in the distance and seems to be wrapped in steel?

Why does this thing still sail?

And...... The artillery of the Chu army is not so terrifying in intelligence as the thunderbolt, right?

That's right, at this time, the only ironclad ship in the Chu State, the "Renchu Chu", has already appeared within the range that Guo Jia can see clearly with the naked eye.

After calculating the distance and length, Guo Jia even suspected that he had seen a mirage.

And at this time, what made the Wei Navy cry the most was not the super giants that had no contact in the distance, but these battleships, gunboats, frigates, and mineboats in the vicinity......

Because the caliber of the shipborne artillery is larger, the firing range completely exceeds that of the mountain artillery that forcibly demolished Yangpingguan in the military situation in Hanzhong.

What's even worse is that the gunboats of the Chu Navy have also prepared a part of the "flowering shells"!

In the past few years, the Ministry of Industry has solved the problem of delayed detonation, using a conical wooden tube with a scale on the outside and a gunpowder channel in the middle to detonate the gunpowder inside the flowering bomb.

The principle is actually very simple, that is, the heat of gunpowder when firing a cannonball will directly ignite the gunpowder compacted in the wooden pipe, and the delay time can be adjusted by cutting off the wooden pipe.

In the recent history of another world, it can be said that it is a very simple, but long-used technology......

Chu State is obviously relatively backward in terms of "science and technology" in flowering bombs, but venting its firepower on the Wei warships that still use thunderbolts as their main weapons is still suspected of beating elementary schools.

Even if it is because of Guo Jia's "Qizuo Ghost Scheme", the already unstable flowering bomb has a much higher explosion rate, it will not change this......

After all, the difference in the firing range between the Thunderbolt and the large-caliber carrier-based artillery is not to be mentioned, and the role of the Thunderbolt stone projectile and the flowering shell is also too different.

For the gunboats, even if they are unlucky enough to be hit, they will damage some of the buildings on the deck at most, and if they hit the armor, they will be considered "misses", and for the warships of the Wei State......

If you are unlucky, you will go straight to the shipwreck countdown!

As for the dense boats, the Chu State didn't care about it at all......

Relying on the good water nature, the water ghost troops who want to scuttle the boat are even more inadequate!

Relying on improved thunderbolt and sail technology, the Wei State has already figured out the rudiments of battle line tactics, not to mention the Chu State Navy, which is more advanced in power and more advanced in strategy than the Wei State?

The battleships led the team separately, and the gunboats followed, pulling out the battle line......

In the parlance of land warfare, it is to put on a "long snake formation", while "grazing" the enemy array, and at the same time greeting with the artillery on the side of the ship.

Broadboard? What broadboard?

Not to mention the issue of speed, the size of those small boats of five or six people, or more than a dozen people, is only close to the battle line, and even if they are not hit by artillery, there is a danger of being swept into the current of the battleship......

As for the main ship of the Wei State that wanted to get out of the battlefield and open up another angle of battle, there were also pole mineboats roaming around to greet them.

The pole mineboat is also half the length of the main ship of the Wei army, and there is also a "pole" similar to the captain, and the pole is equipped with a slipway and other mechanisms, which can put "mines" on the front end - the high-explosive kind.

Compared to artillery, this should be regarded as a strengthening of the ramming angle.

Although the danger factor is very high, every time the "rod" hits, the explosives are directly detonated, and the main ship, the wooden battleship, will never survive as long as it hits this thing!

Compared with the artillery with a low hit rate, the pole mineship is undoubtedly a very "refreshing" warship.

In addition, on the frigates, in addition to the smaller ship-borne guns, there are also manual rods - the small boats of the Wei army, which can basically only fight to protect the escort boats at the beginning and end of the battle column.

However, every time I approached, a long pole equipped with a grenade chute was poked over, and it was not a problem to get a boat of "children".

When he first saw that Chu Guo directly placed three "one-word long snake arrays", Guo Jia was puzzled at first, and then suddenly realized.

Because the naval battle was in its infancy, the Wei navy was also groping, improving the power of the thunderbolt car, which has made it have the germ of battle line tactics, with Guo Jia's talent, after seeing the long snake formation of the Chu army, he basically understood the mystery of naval warfare in the era of thunderbolt and artillery in an instant.

However, it was more than one step too late.

If the Chu army is also a thunderbolt and a wooden sailboat, it still has to fight, but now......

The various sea battle formations that Guo Jia trained before, and the various situations simulated, have now become jokes.

Gan Ning hadn't thought about any battle formations for a long time...... Naval warfare?

There are three main tactics: thick armor, large caliber, and sufficient power!

There are only three secondary ones: will not be stupid, soldiers will not flinch, and more training!

The sound of the thunderbolt car, under the catharsis of artillery and flowering shells, is as quiet as everyone's girlfriends.

With the wandering of the long snake formation, the main ships of the Wei army continued to sink......

Even if they wanted to retreat, the navy of Chu was killed and wanted to chase after them, regardless of size and all of them were sunk - and unlike on land, the enemy troops who fell in the water, even if they shouted surrender, would not be saved, and could not be saved!

If you have a lucky gilded general or a golden jade general, if you can jump up and surrender immediately after disarming, you still have some chance of survival.

The naval army of Wei and the navy of Chu are not only the gap in hardware, but also the gap in software between the "navy" and the "navy......
