Chapter 236: Sink Them
"General, the enemy ship is approaching, will it attack?" A Confederate soldier asked their general as he watched the Senna warship get closer and closer, and asked their general with a trembling tone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
They've been scared now, and a lot of people have been stunned!
Just now, when the Sena fleet was still far away, the shock to them was not so great, but now, the shock given to them by the warships of the Sena army fleet is too great!
The seven Aegis-class destroyers completely blocked the entire river, and judging from the luster, those battleships were not made of wood, they looked more like ironclad battleships!
How did such a huge ironclad battleship float on the water!
Compared to these ironclad warships, their warships were like babies and adults, and their largest warships were no more than thirty meters long, and their width and height were no more than five or six meters.
But the Senna's warships were several times larger than their largest ships!
The specifications of the China Aegis-class are more than 130 meters long, which is several times larger than the large warships of the Southern Alliance, and it is even higher.
"Attack!"
The general of the Southern Alliance didn't have any extra words, he also saw those battleships, which were simply giant-like existences, and he was actually shocked.
It's just that at this time he is the backbone of everyone, if he himself is afraid, then how can he take them to fight against the Holmans?
Gritting their teeth, the soldiers of the Southern Alliance lit the fuse, no matter what they were facing at this time, they had to grit their teeth and fight, otherwise, they would only end up dead.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Shell after shell was fired from the Confederate ships and hit the Senna ships.
At this time, the Aegis-class that rushed to the forefront was only two miles away from these Southern Alliance ships, and their artillery could fully reach them.
And this distance is completely enough for Locke to observe the weapons of these Southern Alliance troops!
"Sure enough, it's like this, it's a very primitive earthen cannon, and it doesn't have any power!"
A confederate shell hit the deck of one of Locke's destroyers, but was unable to do any damage.
The shells exploded, but all that came out was some pieces of iron, nitrate, and some other flammable materials.
These shells don't have much real lethality, if they fall into the crowd, those flying pieces of iron may be able to cause some casualties to the people around them, but if you are facing an ironclad ship like the Senna Army, then those shells are not the slightest threat!
And looking at those nitrate powder and flammable materials, Locke quickly figured out that the warships at this time were all wooden ships, and these things fell on the warship, plus the explosion was just a splash of iron that could produce sparks, and it was easy to ignite these flammable materials, and then they could directly ignite the enemy's warship, so that they could immediately disrupt the enemy's square inch on the ship, and their chances of winning were much greater!
And these things are also useless against the ironclad ships of the Sena army, because the Sena army, they don't use wooden ships, they only use ironclad ships!
One shell after another flew towards the Sena fleet, and many of them missed, but many of them also hit the Seine ships.
However, the expected scene of the ships bursting and sinking did not happen, and even the ships did not even catch fire!
In the past, when they bombarded the enemy's warships with these cannons, they would set the enemy's ships on fire, and then the enemy would desperately try to extinguish those sparks, and they would desperately bombard, either directly sinking the enemy's warships or burning their ships.
But today, it seems that these are useless against the ships of the Senna army!
Could it be that these warships of theirs are really ironclads?
The soldiers of the Confederate Alliance finally realized that these battleships of the Sena fleet were ironclads, and their shells probably couldn't deal with these ironclads!
At this time, the faces of the soldiers of the Southern Alliance were extremely ugly, and their attacks were of no use to the enemy at all!
They were shocked after seeing the sheer size of the ships of the Senna fleet just now, and now, after knowing that the Senna warships were all ironclads, they had begun to lose the idea of resisting.
Any of their attacks is so pale and powerless for the ironclad ship, and the enemy just now did not want to let himself go, but because of his strong defense, he wanted to rush over and sink them!
They are already aware of this, so everyone's face is ugly, and for them, it is simply an insult, a naked insult!
But what can they do?
If it were those ordinary ships, they would be able to jump onto the enemy's ships and fight a broadside battle even if the two ships collided!
But in this way, their warships cannot withstand the impact of the Sena warships, and it is estimated that a single impact can sink all their warships.
Moreover, the ships of the Sena fleet are too high, much higher than their ships, even if they want to climb up and engage in a white-knuckle battle with the enemy, the difficulty is quite large!
"Alright, increase the horsepower and sink them all, I think the fish in the river have been hungry for a long time!"
After discovering that the so-called firearms of the Southern Alliance were actually not powerful, let alone threatening, Locke directly ordered the Senna fleet to increase its horsepower, wanting to directly sink all the dozens of remaining Southern Alliance warships in front of them in one go!
Originally, he was afraid that he would collide with the Southern Alliance warship too early, causing him to be unable to observe their firearms correctly, so Locke deliberately slowed down the Senna fleet, and now let them increase their horsepower, the distance between the two miles is not a matter of an instant.
The soldiers of the Southern Alliance looked at the giant ironclad in front of them suddenly becoming fast, and they were about to crash into their own warship, and they were also confused.
They didn't react at all, it was too fast, two miles away, that is, a thousand meters, and the Senna fleet appeared in front of their warship as if it had teleported to one side, catching them off guard.
Without the slightest precaution, you just showed up, in my...
"Boom!"
Countless splashes began to splash on the Longjiang River, and Locke and the others simply sank all the Southern Alliance ships in front of them!
In the past, when warships collided, even if one side sank, it would sink slowly, and their hull would float on the water for a while, after all, it was made of wood, and it would not sink so fast, and those soldiers still had time to escape.
But now the Senna fleet was directly crushed over, not only sinking those warships, but also directly crushing them, forcing them directly into the water, so that those soldiers of the Southern Alliance had no time to react, and they were all driven into the water immediately.
And they are all ironclads above their heads, if they dare to take the lead, the high-speed ironclads will definitely make them die faster, but if they don't take the lead, then they will have to suffocate too!
Even if the water is good, they can't hold back the Sena fleet before they all come out, because behind the seven destroyers, there are still a hundred warships, large and small!
