Chapter 82: T-shaped cross-headed tactics!

Decades ago, the magic crystal cannon had not yet appeared, the magic crystal turbine had not been invented, and sailing ships were the mainstream of the sea.

The Age of Discovery began with the explosion of merchant ships and the ravages of pirate ships.

Broadside battles are a nightmare for merchant ships. The pirate ship does not want to fill the warehouse with goods, and the heavy speed is not heavy load, and every time the last ship arrives first, after the side of the ship is close to the side of the merchant ship, the pirates will jump on the enemy ship in groups and engage in white-knuckle combat, killing the whole ship and capturing the enemy ship. Even if the other side has an army, they are not afraid, and the pirates only need to rely on their speed to fly away, and they are not afraid of the slightest challenge.

In the face of the ferocity of the pirates, the crew could only give it a go, turn around, and slam the hull of the opponent with the hard ramming angle on the bow of the ship. After crashing into the opposing ship, the merchant ship may still have a chance to survive.

"T-shaped horizontal head" is a fighting method.

At that time, once a ship engaged, they all tried to form a T-shape with the enemy ship, so that their collision angle was facing the enemy's hull, grabbing the T-shaped vertical, and trying to make the bow of the ship face the opponent's hull.

However, when the magic crystal cannon was loaded onto the ship's side, the "T-shaped crosshead" became the way to die.

After the magic crystal cannon is loaded on the side of the ship, a large amount of artillery fire erupts from both sides, and in order to hit the opponent, it is best to be able to stand side by side with the enemy ship, and when facing the enemy from the side, the guns on one side can fire all the guns to exert their maximum power.

However, the original magic crystal artillery, naturally it is impossible to use the magic crystal gunpowder powder to make cannonballs, the cannonballs are all stone eggs or iron eggs, and the ships are all wooden, as long as the carpenter is skilled and arrives in time, the tinkering can quickly eliminate the negative effect of being hit by the cannon and water.

How can you knock the other person over? That must cause the biggest opening, and the cabin is flooded and there is no time to repair it!

Where is the hardest place to fix when water ingress? On the side of the current, the bow of the boat!

Therefore, in the new era, when the fleet is fighting, it must try to line up as much as possible, and strive to use its own side to aim at the enemy's bow and fire fiercely, and the opponent's bow and both sides of the bow will be bombed on three sides, and as soon as the bow is broken, the ship will be equal to drinking water when it moves forward, and the probability of sinking the ship will be greatly increased.

What's more, firing the guns on the enemy's side is only effective when facing the enemy on the flank, and when the bow is aimed at the enemy ship, the guns on this side have no effect!

In this way, the two fleets fighting each other once again formed a "T-shaped horizontal head", but now everyone grabbed the T-shaped horizontal line, trying to make the hull face the other party's bow.

The T-shaped horizontal head and the column set fire, so that the "battleship", a ship with fierce firepower in the fleet column operation, stands out in naval battles!

With the Church of the Goddess of Magic unifying the Oter Kingdom, new technologies and equipment are constantly emerging, such as iron hulls and armor, rear-loading rifled magic crystal cannons with increasing calibers, endless shells, increasingly powerful magic crystal turbines and propellers, and magic crystal turrets that are easy for soldiers to control, etc., the naval strength of the Oser Kingdom is overwhelming, and now it has the momentum of the dynasty on which the sun never sets!

Gotak Copperbeard's face was solemn, he had previously been horizontally in the open sea because he wanted to concentrate his firepower on the harbor battery, but now he was bombarded by three ships in a battle column in a "T-shaped horizontal head", which can be said to have committed a taboo in naval warfare!

Fortunately, the dwarven kingdom can't artillery, magic can't work, but our smelting technology is very good!

Which one is stronger in battleship turtle shell? The Dwarven Kingdom is looking for a strong ship!

The iron armor of the Moredin was the oracle of the dwarven god Paladin, who sacrificed countless dwarven compatriots before he carved out a magma iron ore from the bottom of the volcano. The temperature of this magma iron ore is much higher than that of ordinary magma, and the iron ore in the magma is directly presented in the state of molten iron, and any armor can be poured in one piece as long as a large enough module is built. The greatest magic of the magma dwarven gods.

The Motorreal Kingdom ships are strong docks, specializing in warship armor, no matter how far your guns range, the more powerful the cannonballs, and how about the large-caliber magic crystal artillery that can fill the entire ship?

Are your warships thick enough? Is the armor hard enough? Can the displacement tonnage keep up? How many guns and how much ammunition can you carry?

Our dwarf kingdom can't do anything else, it's big enough, hard enough, full of ammunition, enough to shoot at once, is it strong enough?

After Gotak Copperbeard shouted "Right Full Helm", when the "Full Rudder Right " gave the order, the opposing fleet began to turn to the left, forming a opposite trend with his own ships!

Isn't the other party pursuing a "T-shaped horizontal head"? Why should the ship's side be facing us?

The two sides walked opposite each other, and Gotak knew that his ship was not fast enough, but as long as the other party continued in this posture and ran to the next stop of the vast archipelago, the Moritin still had a chance!

As the human ship ran behind the Moredin's ass, Gotak Copperbeard finally knew what the other party was trying to do!

It's humiliating!

The sentry finally shouted, "Report to the sir!" We're surrounded! Please instruct! ”

The leader of the human fleet, after coming to the stern of the Moridin, chose a big turn, almost turning out of a semicircle! Turning around and catching up with the Moritin!

When the first ship caught up with the Moredin, three ships happened to surround the Moredin in a U-shape!

However, the other party was not satisfied, and was speeding forward, intending to form a T-shaped transverse head on the bow of the Moredin, crush the Moredin, and even capture the Moredin!

"Indicate a yarn! I'm desperate! The inner turmoil is indescribable.

Gotak Copperbeard could only ask the students with a serious face to love their jobs, sacrifice and dedication, and rely on their skin and blood to be tough with each other!

"Never accept being captured by the other side! Either be sunk by them, or sink with them! ”

Although the magic crystal guns on the opponent's three battleships seem to be infinitely powerful, the Moredin is by no means a little chicken to be manipulated.

The dwarven battleship made of magma armor is huge enough and stable enough to stand strong after being hit by more than a dozen cannons from human battleships.

With their own ship armor on hand, the Dwarven Navy cadets have greatly increased their confidence, and their belief points in the Dwarven God have increased by a few points.

However, the problem is that if you are always hit by guns, the ship will sink after all.

Gotak was in pain now, the other side was lined up at the bow of his ship, and if he wanted to fight back, although the range of the dwarven fleet's guns could previously defy the wrath of several magic goddesses on the walls of Canberland, it was as short as the dwarves in front of humans compared to the magic crystal cannons on human battleships. The cannonballs fired by the dwarven guns were a mess.

If you want to get closer, the bow of the ship will definitely have to take a few more shots, although the armor is thick, you can't carry it like this.

Thinking of this, seeing that the three battleships were about to surround the Moritin in a U-shaped turn and start the indiscriminate bombardment mode, the dwarven captain once again chose the "T-shaped horizontal head" strategy!

Dwarves are ship strong! You're facing us, we'll kill you!
