Chapter 153: Naval Battle (Part II)

In naval battles, tactics are very important, because of the correct tactics, the three ships of Thundering can fire at the same time with eighteen white crystal cannons, while the five frigates of Qiu Qiuen can only attack Thunder with the white crystal cannons in the bow.

But sometimes luck is more important, like this round of shelling with thunder!

Many of the sailors on the three ships on Leiming's side are veterans, whether they are helming, hanging sails or lookout, they are all good hands, but when it comes to firing guns, these gunners are rookies.

However, it was these rookies, with the blessing of luck, who hit Qiu Qiuen's car with one shot, blew a plank in the bow of the ship, and hit one of the five frigates at the very edge of the shell, and exploded right on the deck!

The hit rate of long-range shelling in naval warfare is low, perhaps only one hundredth, and if the ship is moving at high speed, it can be as low as one thousandth.

Lei Ming has long been mentally prepared, if he misses a shot, he will not be too disappointed, he is preparing to fight a protracted battle, the opposite frigate is moving at full speed to indeed shorten the distance a little, but the impact is not big, as long as the thundering sailors do not make mistakes, at least half an hour there is no danger, if unfortunately hit, then it can only be blamed on bad luck.

It's just that he didn't expect that out of a total of eighteen cannons, he actually hit two cannons!

"Well done! Prepare quickly, shell out for the second time, don't give them a chance to breathe!"

Thunder gave the order loudly, encouraging the sailors on the ship, his voice was full of excitement, and when it reached the ears of the gunners, they all turned red, and the feeling of firing directly at the ship was so refreshing, especially if it hit!

"It's flooded!"

On the other side, in the cabin of Qiuqiuen's frigate, the sea began to pour in through the cracked hole.

"Stop!" Although Qiu Qiuen fell to the ground, and he fell on the deck and grinned his teeth, when he heard the water in the cabin, he was even more anxious, and shouted loudly.

Actually, needless to say, the goblins in the cabin have already started to act. The sturdy bear goblin guard pounced with a large plank, and several bear goblins worked together to push the plank against the hole, and although the sea was still gushing out of the crack like crazy, at least it wasn't so turbulent.

If there is too much water. The ship will sink, and then there will be no way to live.

In the face of a life-and-death crisis, no matter what race it is, the explosive power is amazing, and the short goblin sailor holds a large handful of rags to fill in the gaps. The planks are then nailed to death with strips of wood.

The hull of the ship, tilted by the influx of seawater, finally stabilized, and Ball Ball struggled to get up from the deck.

The frigate that had been blown off its deck was already on fire, and the goblin sailors were splashing water like crazy to no avail, billowing black smoke affecting their breathing, canvas burning, masts toppling down, and countless screams rang out over the frigate.

When death comes, no one can take it lightly.

The moment he got up, he didn't notice that one of his frigates was almost finished, and he was full of anger and wanted to call the gunners on the frigate to fight back, but his eyes widened rapidly. He saw that the three small fishing boats were firing again!

It was still eighteen cannons, and the firepower did not weaken in the slightest, and the ferocious Baijing cannon shot out a straight beam of energy.

The impact of the white crystal cannon, the screams in his ears, the billowing black smoke, Qiu Qiu'en almost fainted in front of his eyes, he didn't know what was going on, he just wanted to sink three small fishing boats, but his car was damaged. There was a frigate that had broken off from the middle and was about to sink.

This can't be! This can't be!

Qiu Qiu's mind was full of these four words at this time, and he couldn't believe everything that had happened in such a short period of time.

His frigate had sunk ten ships in the previous days. Having encountered no decent resistance at all, he had expected to add another three ships to his sinking rank, but the reality was like a nightmare that would never wake up.

You won't be able to win this time, will you?

Qiu Qiuen saw a few cannons explode a few hundred meters in front of their boat, and a few more that swept directly over the top of the ship and landed far behind their boat before exploding.

The exploding sea left them in the middle of a wave that Qiu Qiuen didn't realize at this time. Although some of these shells fell in front and some in the back, the general direction was correct, and this was the advantage of the flank against the enemy's artillery attack on the forward fleet.

"Change the detonation bombs! Change the detonation bombs!"

Qiu Qiuen's reaction was not unpleasant, and while the skilled and experienced goblin gunners were still dumbfounded, he had already decided to use detonating bombs on the spot.

The Goblin's White Crystal Cannon has many advantages, and in naval battles, the energy beam is almost straight out, which has greatly improved the accuracy of the shelling, and if it is a solid shell wrapped in gunpowder, the hit rate is even lower than that of a gunpowder.

However, because it is an energy cannon, as long as it encounters an impact, it will explode immediately, for example, if it hits a bird, although the energy of this cannon can easily annihilate the bird, but due to the impact of the bird, the cannon will explode immediately.

Therefore, in order to counter the White Crystal Cannon, the goblins have created a small number of detonating bombs, which can intercept the enemy's artillery fire to a large extent.

As long as you survive this round of shelling, the advantage is still on your side!

Qiu Qiu Eun cheered himself up in his heart.

The last of the eighteen shells was belated, but fate seemed to play a huge joke on Ball Woo-eun, and while several of his goblin gunners were already preparing to detonate the shells, a cannonball hit his car again......

"Boom!"

A powerful explosion burst across the board of the frigate directly in front of it, and the large wooden board that had just been repaired had already been overturned, and a hole far larger than the first cannon frantically swallowed up the seawater.

The violent shaking of the hull made it impossible for all the goblins on board to stand still, and with it, sea water poured in through the hole in the bow, and the stern began to, and even in a few breaths the stern was above the water.

Finished!

The most intuitive feeling in this Qiuqiu's mind now, the ship tilted rapidly, and the polished deck was even smoother at this time, and Qiuqiuen, who fell on the deck, tried to grab nothing but could do anything, and then slid into the sea with his screams.

"No, I don't want to die, help me......"

"Oh, don't, pull me, I don't want to die!"

Screams and screams rang out from the frigate, and many of the goblins in the cabin had been swallowed up by the pouring water......

What Qiu Qiu-eun regrets most now is that he rushed over to trouble the three fishing boats, and the three fishing boats on the other side were initially warning in mid-air, but he tried to sink them all, and he devoured the consequences.

"Wouldn't it?" Lei Ming's shock now was no less than that of the goblin merchant Qiu Qiuen, the first round of shelling hit two shots, one of the frigates on the side was directly finished, and the middle one was a little traumatized, and finally seemed to be remedied, but the second round of shelling, the middle one was hit again, and this time it was directly hit on the hull, the damage was much greater, and in the blink of an eye, the frigate in the middle had sunk a little half.

Lei Ming was already stunned by the performance of the rookie gunners, and two salvos took out the two frigates on the opposite side, so wouldn't the three other rounds be wiped out? Could it be that the gunners I recruited were all super gunners with amazing talents?

He swallowed dryly, when happiness came too suddenly, the impact on the soul was also great.

Now, it's three against three! There are five other freighters or fishing boats on the other side, and the threat is very small, and Thunder suddenly feels like the situation has been completely reversed!

"Shoot them!"

Thunder stood on the deck, roaring at the frigates with great ambition. (To be continued.) )
