When the commanders of the big guys of the Far East Combined Fleet discovered the main force of the Han Empire's navy with a happy face and rushed forward at full speed, they discovered the enemy behavior of an idiot in a naval battle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The main naval forces of the Han Empire did not go hand in hand, only a large ship that seemed to be wrapped in an iron shell, swallowing black smoke and moving forward alone......

The other ships of the Han Empire's navy were all far behind, with no intention of moving forward......

Could it be that this is to sell teammates?

Commanders of all ranks of the Far Eastern Combined Fleet are full of question marks.

Although it was said that the iron-hulled ship with a steam engine was quite awesome when it drove alone, spitting black smoke on it, the admirals of the Anti-Han Alliance were not uninformed newcomers, and they had also seen iron-hulled ships!

Historically, it is not without iron-clad warships, the earliest can even be traced back to the Greek era!

At that time, there was a whimsical king who wrapped the outer layer of his battleship with iron sheets to increase its defense, and successfully made it float!

It's just that this design was abandoned for some reason......

The first large-scale use of iron-hulled ships should be during the Warring States period of Japan, when the Japanese made a large number of iron-hulled ships equipped with old-fashioned bronze cannons to increase their ability to resist attacks, but the existence of this kind of so-called turtle ship can only fight in the near sea, and it is nonsense in the ocean!

Moreover, the turtle boat with an iron hull lives up to its name, and the speed can indeed be compared with the turtle, to put it bluntly, this kind of turtle boat is useless except for protection!

There wasn't even a steam engine in it!

Moreover, a layer of iron shell seems to have good protection, but under the advanced European artillery, it still can't be stopped, and the turtle ships of Japan during the Warring States period are very powerful, just because the artillery at that time was too backward.

The battleships of the 1st rank of the Far Eastern Combined Fleet have been loaded with the most advanced British breech-loading rifled guns!

Not bad, a real breech-loading rifled gun!

The British actually developed this kind of artillery a long time ago, but the actual combat performance was not good, and the front-loading smoothbore gun was not banned, and it was only used as a heavy gun on ships, which was okay......

It is not a secret in the European powers to engrave rifling in the chamber to increase the firing range, and the skirmishers of many countries use front-loading rifled guns, and even rifled guns can be made, as long as the European bigwigs want to, rifled guns can naturally be made, however, the rifled guns made are a bit pitfallen, and they are not as good as smoothbore guns......

The most important thing is that the Far East Combined Fleet is equipped with a large number of naval warfare-type explosive shells, the kind that can explode when bombarded!

Therefore, the bigwigs of the Far Eastern Combined Fleet are not worried about whether the iron-hulled ships of the Han Empire will not sink!

Unless, it's made of solid steel!

How can it be?!

Even the British, who have the most developed shipbuilding technology in Europe, have not yet figured out how to perfectly combine the steam engine with a battleship, and are only in the experimental stage, let alone a battleship with a pure iron hulle!

Europeans could never have imagined that a newly rising empire could overcome such a large technological barrier and build a solid iron-hulled ship!

Taking a step back, even if the Han Empire was a solid iron-hulled ship, with one battleship, it was impossible to sink hundreds of large battleships!

In this way, the Far East Combined Fleet confidently faced the Zhenyuan of the Han Empire!

The other ships of the Han Empire were far away spectators......

One to hundred, so passionately ......

First of all, without waiting for the Far East Combined Fleet to enter the firing range, the Zhenyuan took the lead in launching a roar with the Krupp main gun!

The Zhenyuan rewarded by the system is not just pulling out a ship, but a full set of crew and weapons and ammunition!

The entire Zhenyuan has the largest ammunition reserves, which is enough to fight a protracted naval battle!

The naval personnel above are also capable people who absolutely meet the training standards, and most importantly, because the range of the guns of the Far Eastern Combined Fleet is not as good as that of the Krupp main gun, the Zhenyuan can fire at a relatively close distance!

Even if this distance is out of range for the guns on the sail battleships!

It is not easy to hit the cannon within the effective range, but after firing at close range, the skilled gunner on the Zhenyuan can naturally rely on the relatively advanced aiming technology to greatly improve the hit rate!

Of course, the large sail battleships in the Far Eastern Combined Fleet are really easy to aim, and the speed is not fast and completely depends on the wind!

All the conditions combined, this naval battle was simpler for the gunners on the Zhenyuan than the maneuver during training!

This is like a qualified soldier who is not accurate at an effective range of 600 meters, and it is difficult to guarantee a 100% hit at a distance of 400 meters, but it can definitely be accurate at a distance of 200 meters!

Unless you suddenly shiver or sneeze......

Obviously, this kind of accident will not happen to the gunners of Zhenyuan, and naturally, they hit about 100% of the hits!

That's a 305mm caliber shell, or a TNT-loaded high-explosive shell!

I saw that a large 'firework' suddenly appeared on the huge body of a front-level sail battleship that was hit.

The high-powered high-explosive bomb, which is impossible in this world, directly opened a hole tens of meters wide on the huge wooden-hulled first-class battleship!

Although this first-class battleship is still stubbornly floating on the sea, everyone knows that it has completely lost its combat effectiveness......

Then, under the dull gaze of the commander of the Far East Combined Fleet, the ironclad ship with the pigeon battle flag roared again......

The fleet commander of the Far Eastern Combined Fleet rubbed his eyes, as if he couldn't believe it, when did the Navy's artillery have such a high hit rate?

The hit rate of the Zhenyuan is not high, but it also depends on how far away the cannon is fired, and the effective range of the sail battleship is not much different from firing the cannon close to the face for the Zhenyuan......

The Zhenyuan would dare to be so close to the sail battleship, if it met a battleship of the same period, it would be a premature death to be so close!

The main gun of the Zhenyuan only needs to hit one shot, and when the Far East Combined Fleet finally began to open the gun door and blast out the row of guns, the three largest and most advanced first-class battleships and a special battleship have already launched the battle sequence!

These battleships are worthy of being anti-beating, although the flames spread on them, they are unsinkable......

But it doesn't matter, the secondary cannon of the Zhenyuan has also joined the feast of abusing vegetables!

Like a hideous, spitting fireballs all over its body, the Zhenyuan was stunned and plunged into the hundreds of ships of the Far East United Fleet!

The commander of the Far East Combined Fleet finally realized that something was wrong, his own artillery bombarded an earth-shattering sound, but it did not cause any damage to the iron-hulled ships of the Han Empire at all!
