Chapter 387: The odds are greater
The ocean extends to the east, and the sea and the sky dissolve into one color. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Everyone has been exploring the nearby sea area for more than five or six hours, but still found nothing, the sea and the sky are vast, to find the enemy in the sea, it is a veritable needle in a haystack, and if the fleet is allowed to cruise on the sea all day long, once it encounters a storm, not to mention the total annihilation, a large amount of maintenance costs are indispensable, so Fang Chuanxin and others did not drive the fleet to wander in the open sea, but directly targeted the Jiaodong area along the coast of Donghai County, and probed whether there were suspicious ships nearby.
Everyone judged that the Ninghai Division was going to attack Qianglong Island in the near future, which would correspondingly affect the operation of Qianglong Island and increase the reserve of resources before the war, so the supply line of Qianglong Island should operate frequently, and everyone would not worry about finding an opportunity.
Again, the sea is vast, and the chance of finding a specific fleet in the sea is too small, since everyone has locked their eyes on the Jiaodong Gang, they unanimously decided to wait in the sea outside Jiaodong County, waiting for the rabbit.
Finding the supply ship is only the first step, the next step is to follow the vine and touch the melon, defeat the forces along the coast and the wind flow, if you just destroy the ship that transports supplies, I am afraid that it is a symptom but not a cure, it will be revived, and the completion of the task will not be too high, since everyone has gathered so many people and spent so much effort to trace Jiaodong from Ninghai County, it is natural to complete their work in one battle, defeat the root of the supply of the wind flow on the shore, and complete the task perfectly.
Fang Chuanxin jumped on the warship of the beggar gang player, and came to the stern of the boat with the flowers falling in the dream, and before the one-meter-five signal, he had already seen the sail shadow in the morning light, Fang Chuanxin asked, "Whose ship is this?" ”
After two days and two nights of observation in the game, everyone is a little tired, but this is only the most basic preparation, there are many ships coming and going nearby, at first everyone is looking at the dazzling eyes, at all can not tell what the difference is between those ships, it is impossible to completely follow up with the exploration, one of the ships is not enough, it is easy to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, and these passing ships are bad, you must know that the nearby waters are still "peaceful areas", and directly conflict with these NPCs is not worth the loss.
In the dream, Hua Luozhi shook his head and said, "I don't know whose ship they are, but I think this ship is a little weird." ”
"What's weird?"
"According to our observations, NPCs generally go to sea in the early morning, and the dock will be lively around the time of the game, but I think this ship should go to sea around the time of the game, there must be a ghost!"
Fang Chuanxin looked at him in surprise: "How do you know?" ”
"Haha." In the dream, Hua Luozhi said a little proudly: "Of course it's calculated, you can also ask me this kind of elementary school student's question, is it very simple to divide distance by speed equals time." ”
“…… I know what you mean, but how did you come up with it? ”
"Isn't there a police movie in the movie?" In the dream, Hua Luozhi said: "I see that those drug lords and smugglers only acted in the middle of the night when the goods arrived, and this was the inspiration, these NPCs transported supplies for Qianglong Island, and they did sneaky things, and the nature was the same as those drug dealers, so I had such a guess, how about it, do you think it makes sense?" ”
Fang Chuanxin said sincerely: "It makes sense, I really underestimate your wisdom at one meter five." ”
"Nonsense!" In the dream, Hua Luo knew a little bull and said: "What is concentrated is the essence!" ”
Finally, I caught up and took a look, and it turned out that the ship was not the imaginary supply ship, but everyone was not discouraged, because they found that the reason why the medium-sized sailing ship appeared in this place at this time was because of the slow sailing speed, so that the dream Hualuo Zhi made a mistake in judging its departure time, but the dream Hua Luozhi's idea was still very interesting.
Everyone viciously used their own ships, compared with the speed of the ships passing nearby, and used the speed of their own ships to roughly judge the basic speed of various ship types, which is a more tedious work, fortunately, the players who came together this time are full of talents, and everyone worked together to quickly list a comparison table according to the ship type and speed, and sent it to each player, as long as the data on the table, roughly judge the departure time of the ship at sea, and focus on the observation object, put it on the ships that go to sea in the middle of the night.
Cargo ship, set off in the middle of the night, according to these two conditions, everyone narrowed down the scope closely, naturally very excited, and finally in the early morning of the fourth day of the game, a very suspicious fleet was discovered: there were three large cargo ships, and two escort ships, but they did not play the flag of their own forces, which seemed mysterious.
In the eyes of Fang Chuanxin and other well-intentioned people, these were big flaws, Fang Chuanxin and the others hurriedly beckoned the nearby ships to follow up, but the reaction of that fleet further verified their conjecture: they suddenly turned.
"Guys, keep up!" It was the first time that Fang Chuanxin and the others were so sure that they had met the main master, and they immediately shouted excitedly: "It must be them!" ”
"Let's take it easy, let's take it easy, this is not a three-way zone, don't be in a hurry to start a conflict!"
As a result, everyone chased for a while, only to realize that the evil door, the other party not only changed direction and fled, it seemed that the speed of the ship increased a lot, resulting in the chase getting farther and farther, and was actually pulled away, this situation made everyone very anxious: "What's going on?" Who has the means to catch up with them? ”
I love Harpy looked at it for a while and said: "The other party's helmsman must be super experienced, I just looked at it, their sails have been rotating in the direction, and the wind is sailing, which can be seen to be a peculiar navigational technique, if we don't have the corresponding means, I'm afraid that they will be thrown away in another ten minutes." ”
"What then?"
"Luckily they had three cargo ships that slowed us down, otherwise we really wouldn't have had a chance." I love Harpy said: "There is still a chance at the moment, I have observed, during the day in the game, the wind generally blows from the land to the ocean, and at night, the wind blows from the ocean to the land in the opposite direction, and now it is the hour in the game, and after a while the wind direction should change, unless they turn around and turn, otherwise the sails will not be able to borrow the wind power, and then the wind will not be used, we will rely on the speed of the warship to speed faster than the cargo ship, and there is a chance to catch up, everyone hold on a little longer." ”
Listening to his analysis of what he said, everyone suddenly had confidence: "It would be nice if this was the case." ”
I love Harpy and said, "But ......"
"But what?" Everyone hurriedly asked.
I love Harpy frowned: "Because there is still little information and data, I am not sure, but based on past experience, I think the weather will soon deteriorate, and it is likely to cause storms, my opinion is to be conservative, don't chase it for now......"
“…… Really? ”
"I can't say, I've only been observing for a long time, so I can't guarantee it." I love Harpy and looked at Fang Chuanxin: "Immortal letter, it's better for you to decide whether to chase it or not." ”
Fang Chuanxin didn't disbelieve him, but now that the arrow had to be sent, it was not easy to find a very suspicious target, and it was of course impossible to tell him to give up, but if he really encountered a big storm, repairing the ship was a trivial matter, and if he encountered a storm again, and chased and lost the enemy, the blow to morale would undoubtedly be very big, and now he had to take the responsibility of making a decision, and he knew that the pressure was a little great.
Fang Chuanxin took a deep breath and said, "For the sake of safety, don't chase if it's not a warship, continue to stay here to check the movement." Let's chase the warship again, and if the situation is really as Brother Harpy said, everyone will act on the opportunity. ”
The implication is that naturally I still have to chase, I love Harpy to see him decide, and I have no opinion: "I hope this time I can't judge ......"
"Haha." Fang Chuanxin smiled and changed the subject: "I also took a look at it, those boats look like they are escaping in a straight line, but in fact, they are constantly turning, as if they can take advantage of all the sea breeze, so their boats can be faster than us, what kind of technology is this?" The helmsman NPCs I hired were nowhere near comparable. ”
"I don't know." I love Harpy and said with a wry smile: "I still know a little bit about naval combat shooting skills, but the navigation skills are completely rookies, and the gods believe that you can ask the wrong person." ”
Fang Chuanxin smiled and didn't care, originally it was just to change the topic, as time passed, there was a good news and a bad news, as I love Harpy expected, the risk changed, the speed of the ship in front slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye, and another bad news, which I love Harpy expected, the weather is gradually getting worse, the originally calm sea surface has turned into foaming and splashing waves, roaring waves seem to be coming from all directions, this time even the blind can see that the nearby sea area is indeed going to cause a big storm.
"What should I do?"
When the matter came to an end, Fang Chuanxin's face was unwavering: "Go on." ”
"Grass! I knew you would! In the dream, Hua Luozhi screamed a little: "Brother Xin, you didn't disappoint me, what storm is there to be afraid of, Lao Tzu wants to see it!" ”
Others also said: "Go to the storm of Teniang, even if you feed the fish today, you have to catch up with those boats, otherwise you won't be able to sleep at night!" ”
Seeing that the distance was getting closer, Fang Chuanxin gave an order: "The projected players are ready, shoot them a few shots first, these grandsons are so good at running, aim at their masts to hit, and see how they can escape without sails!" ”
The player who operated the trebuchet promised: "Okay, the gods believe you, and you will see!" ”
"Boom"!
The trebuchet on the left side of the bow of the ship ejected a boulder weighing more than 100 catties, shot high in the void between the two ships, and then rolled and projected towards the opponent.
Unfortunately, the moment the stone bounced off the body, a huge wave just came, causing the ship to capsize, and the stone with powerful destructive power suddenly lost its accuracy and fell crookedly in the distance three feet away from the starboard side of the enemy ship, which caused Fang Chuanxin and others to regret loudly.
And this side began to launch stone bombs to attack, the opposite side was not far behind, the two escort warships began to meet the enemy, the first shot on the opposite side was slightly better than Fang Chuanxin and others, the boulder rushed into the sky, and when it fell, it only hit their stern, so that Fang Chuanxin and others were silent.
At this time, it was only possible to fight who hit the opponent first, but fortunately this time they had more ships than the enemy, and the attack was more intensive, and the odds of victory were greater. (To be continued.) )
