The ships of the Eastern Wu Navy were already in a loose formation, and now Ling Lie sensed that the Jingzhou Navy might start shelling, so he ordered the fleet to spread out a little further to reduce the probability of being affected by the shelling, which can be said to be a very wise approach.

This also shows that the combat thinking of the Dongwu Navy has gradually transitioned from cold weapon combat in the past to the era of fire ~ artillery. This change is not only because they have been scared by the two super warships of the Jingzhou Navy over the years, but also because their warships have also begun to be equipped with fire~ artillery.

As Wei and Wu stole the firearms technology of Shu, not only did Wei produce a lot of firearms, but Wu was not far behind, and the whole country was producing firearms. The production focus of Soochow firearms is also fire ~ artillery, and it is the kind of giant naval gun.

The national conditions of Eastern Wu and Wei are very different, and they are most proud of their naval army, and it is also the naval force that they rely on for survival. After seeing the power of the two super warships of the Shu Kingdom, they also dreamed of having such a fire~artillery battleship one day.

Now their dreams have come true. Soochow now had ten gunboats, but due to technical reasons, they couldn't arrange too many fire~guns on one battleship, so each of these ten battleships had only twenty gunboats, and ten on each side.

Even so, it almost killed Soochow, two hundred cannons were cast, and Soochow's treasury was already clean enough to run mice. These ten gunboats can be said to be the weapon of the country of Soochow, and they are very precious in ordinary times.

However, this is an extraordinary period, and the people of Dongwu also understand the principle that good steel should be used on the blade, so on this "Maginot Line", eight gunboats are concentrated, and two are guarded by the naval army camp in Xiakou, which can reinforce the front line at any time.

It is conceivable that Soochow attaches great importance to this line of defense. Now these eight warships have also turned sideways, ready to fight back at the shelling of the Jingzhou naval army.

Soon, the three large cement warships of the Jingzhou Navy began to launch rocket artillery, and the scene was quite shocking, with forty-five rocket launchers on the side of each ship, and 135 rockets were launched from the three ships~ out.

Due to the low recoil of rocket artillery, all rocket launchers can be fired at the same time without worrying about the recoil affecting the balance of the hull. So, all of a sudden, more than a hundred rockets in the sky flew through the defense line with a bright taillight and flew towards the camp of the Eastern Wu Naval Army.

However, none of the Eastern Wu soldiers felt that this scene was beautiful, and they all knew that these seemingly magnificent things were all death killers, and as long as they fell near them, they would be crippled even if they did not die.

The soldiers of the Soochow Navy stared nervously at the sky, praying that these evil stars would not fall in their direction. Soon, those meteor shower-like rockets fell, and as many people expected, these rockets had already dispersed when they flew into the Great Array of the Eastern Wu Naval Army, and they couldn't set fire to a certain ship at all.

Most of the rockets landed in the water, and only a few rockets actually landed on some of the ships when the blind cat encountered the dead mouse, and then there was a violent explosion.

These ship's rocket launchers fired flowering shells instead of heavy and hard solid shells, which killed and injured the ship's soldiers when they exploded, but had less damage to the hull.

Large and medium-sized ships have huge hulls and usually have water traps, and these flowering shells are basically unable to cause substantial damage to the hull, but only sweep the superstructure.

For small boats, when a rocket falls on a ship, the flying shrapnel is enough to kill everyone on board, and it doesn't matter if the ship is broken or not. Although the shelling of these rocket artillery also caused some damage to the Dongwu naval army, the overall damage was not great, and for the army of tens of thousands of people, it was almost like tickling.

Many sailors who had never seen the world were frightened by this shocking scene, and the water splashing on the ship wet their clothes, and some of them shivered a little.

Of course, veterans don't have this kind of problem, most rookies have this kind of expression. Many of the Eastern Wu Navy were veterans who had combat experience with the Jingzhou Navy Army, and their faces were calm and composed. But because the losses of the Eastern Wu Army over the years were a bit large, Lu Xun had to recruit a large number of recruits, and the appearance of these recruits was no different from quails with wet ~ water.

But there's nothing to say, every recruit has to go through this stage, as long as they go through this scene a few more times, they can be like those veterans, in the rumbling explosion, their expressions are calm, and they can even dodge the splash of the explosion while still talking meat jokes in their mouths.

Soon, Soochow's gunboats also began to return fire. Not to mention, there were as many as eight gunboats in Soochow, and although each one could only fire ten cannons at a time, the eight gunboats combined had eighty shells.

This number is also quite a lot, more than half of the rockets fired by the three warships of the Jingzhou Navy Army, which makes the Dongwu Navy no longer in a one-sided state of beating as in the past, at least they can interact now.

This not only did not make the Jingzhou Navy feel afraid, but made them more excited. This psychological state is estimated to be more understandable about abuse ~ madness, unilateral abuse and the other party is a little resistant, but this resistance is not enough to cause substantial harm to themselves, which of the two can make people feel high, the answer is obvious.

Just like scolding, if the other party is silent, indifferent to any words you scold, and does not make any response, the scolding side will definitely feel very bored, and will feel that he can't vent in his chest ~ out, and the pleasure ~ brought by scolding is greatly reduced.

What? I gave you two examples, you still don't understand? Well, I'll give you another example, like, when you're going to have that or that with a beautiful woman, if the other person doesn't react at all, and you do whatever you want like a dead fish, do you think it's fun? It's still a bit reactive, a little interactive and fun, right?

Alas, the world is really declining, and you can only understand if people give examples that are not positive energy. (There is no charge for these two sections of irrigation)

This water battle in which both sides used firearms can be said to be an epoch-making water war, which is more meaningful than the first use of firearms in a water battle by Liu Hou's two super warships, marking that the water war has entered a new era, marking the demise of the old water war mode and the official debut of the new water war mode.

The Dongwu gunboats were like this, half-pushing and half-firing on the spot, they encountered the same problems as the Jingzhou naval army, and the distance between them was too far. Although the target of the fire ~ cannon is much stronger than that of rocket artillery, but under the action of wind, gravity, gravitation, magnetism, and some inexplicable forces, the shells also spread out the farther they fly.

In the end, under the effect of the law of "the slightest difference is a thousand miles", most of these shells were scattered in the water after flying a long distance, and only one or two shells fell on the three battleships of the Jingzhou Navy Army.

Although the Dongwu Navy launched a heavy solid bullet, under the effect of the law of "the end of the strong crossbow cannot wear Lu Min", when it smashed on the ship of the Jingzhou Navy Army, the kinetic energy was almost exhausted. In addition, the warships of the Jingzhou Navy are all made of extremely hard steel wire cement, and these power-exhausted iron lumps can only tickle them.

After a round of shelling, the casualties of the Dongwu Navy were in double digits, while the Jingzhou Navy was only injured by solid bullets, and no one died, and the difference in strength between the two sides was very obvious.
