Chapter 144: Speed

From the center of the separation of the Fenglin Navy, several small fleets cut through the waves, stabbing out like sharp arrows, and approached the Soochow Navy in an instant.

At the same time, the interception from the Soochow Navy also appeared immediately, and two fleets that were almost twice the size of the Fenglin Navy were ready to surround these Fenglin Navys with absolute superiority.

If you can overwhelm people with power, you will never take risks, which is the consistent style of the Soochow Navy.

Especially with this kind of decoy-like small fleet, the best choice is to strike a devastating blow as quickly as possible.

Otherwise, the longer it drags on, the easier it is to be led by the other party.

Compared with the previous waves of trials, from this wave, the enemy's wisdom has improved a lot, no longer as if it is going straight forward, just a simple attack, but has its own characteristics and personalities, can think, like a replica of a real person.

The general trend crushed out in an instant, and it was about to extinguish these maple forest navies in the blink of an eye.

However, the Fenglin Navy is not so easy to solve, under the seemingly easy management of Gan Ning, in fact, the difficulty of the training is as high as it is, and the requirements are as ruthless as possible, and every Fenglin Navy is an absolute elite.

It is an immutable truth that sweating more during training and shedding less blood during war.

On the other hand, the Soochow Navy and the Fenglin Navy may be said to be from the same source.

After all, as the top naval general of Soochow and even the Three Kingdoms, the entire navy of Soochow can be said to be from the hands of Gan Ning, regardless of the elite level of the Soochow Navy or the way of fighting, Gan Ning is very familiar.

Even if Li Ru did not come to support this war, with Gan Ning himself, he was able to use his understanding of the Soochow Navy to resist the impact of the Soochow Navy in a short period of time.

However, since Li Ru came, Gan Ning naturally put the war strategy on Li Ru, and conveyed all the information he knew about the Soochow Navy to Li Ru to help Li Ru make strategic judgments.

For Li Ru, the information provided by Gan Ning was also very useful, at least after combining his own knowledge of Soochow, he had already come up with no less than five tactics to deal with this war.

Every tactic is very unpleasant for the Soochow Navy, as the chaos of the Three Kingdoms, Li Ru has the final say, and the tactics designed are naturally as cruel as they are.

I usually don't make a move, but there is no need to shoot, and once I do, it means that chaos is coming, and the enemy's death is in chaos!

Watching the first tentative battle between the two sides, the corners of Li Ru's mouth suddenly showed a happy smile, and Gan Ning next to him shivered instantly, only feeling that the smile of the military advisor was really terrible.

I saw that when the Soochow Navy was about to crush the Fenglin Navy with a general trend, the situation changed suddenly.

On the warships harassed by the Fenglin Navy, except for the most basic pilots, they were all archers, and they were equipped with the extreme number of heavy crossbows that the warship could bear.

When the Soochow Navy opened its mouth to show its fangs, the abyssal gaze from the Maple Forest Navy also responded to them enthusiastically.

The pupils of the commander of the First and Second Fleets of Soochow shrank suddenly, but because of "stability", he wanted to directly crush the other party, and he finished his work in one battle, and all of them were pressed up, and the distance was already very close, and it was completely too late to retreat.

The commander gritted his teeth, but they were just some crossbow archers, and they had nothing to fear under their absolute superiority!

simply give an order immediately, press the whole army, and carry the rain of arrows to completely crush the other party.

In an instant, the commander had just made up his mind, and a dense rain of arrows fell from the sky in an instant, like a falling waterfall, which was amazingly majestic.

In between, there are also a large number of thick crossbow arrows, which are extremely powerful, and under the impetus of huge kinetic energy and sharp tips, they are enough to easily penetrate the ten-centimeter-thick hard iron plate, and it is also very easy to shoot through the hull of the ship.

If it is applied to the human body, the power is even more terrifying, and if there is no block, it is completely common to shoot through and fly out.

Under this level of arrow rain, the two Soochow navies suddenly suffered a heavy blow, and no less than five warships had rumbled and began to sink into the sea, and the soldiers on them either seized the opportunity to desperately transfer to other warships, or they had to be completely buried in the ocean.

In such large-scale naval battles, once you fall overboard, it is almost equivalent to a declaration of death.

Not to mention the dangers that may exist in the sea, the arrows that continue to leak into the sea and the waves stirred by the warships of both sides are enough to bury the soldiers who have fallen into the water and suffocate to death.

The rain of arrows continues, but it is visibly weakening.

Archery is never an easy task, it has a huge load on the body, especially the arms, often shooting four or five arrows will cause sore arms, more than ten arrows will be painful, and more than twenty arrows will have to rotate and rest.

With seven arrows per pot in the Fenglin Navy, it will be rotated after shooting two pots, and if the third pot is forcibly shot, the limit shooting is not cost-effective.

Even so, when the first pot of arrows is finished and the second pot is fired, the powerful load of high-speed shooting will explode instantly, which greatly weakens the firing frequency, which is the root cause of the weakening of the rain of arrows.

It's not that the Fenglin Navy doesn't want to change to the next round after shooting one round, but it is really limited by the number of warships that harass the fleet, and the number of soldiers it carries is also limited.

The rain of arrows was weakening, and the distance between the two sides was rapidly closing, and the commanders of the harassing fleet had already seen the hideous expressions on the opposite side.

Since it was not predicted in advance that the fleet sent by the Fenglin Navy would be full of archers, the Soochow Navy still maintained the regular ratio of melee soldiers to archers.

As a result, although the total number of troops surpassed the harassment fleet of the Maple Grove Navy, the number of archers was actually much inferior.

Such a result directly led to the fact that the Soochow Navy could not shoot at all, and could only be passively shot, which was a terrible feeling.

Now that they were about to catch this group of sinister bastards, everyone showed a hideous and angry expression.

At this moment, who does not know that these harassment fleets are indeed bait, but at the same time hunters.

Moreover, when the Soochow Navy decided to intercept it, it had already chosen to swallow these baits with deadly toxins, and once they were hooked, they were still hooked, and they could not carry out the retreat order given by Sun Jian at all.

Even if it is forced, the end result will only be worse.

"Suffer death! Enemy! The commander of the Soochow Navy roared angrily.

The two sides were already close to each other, and if they got a little closer, just a little more, they would be able to bite and build a passage between the two ships, so that they could engage in melee combat.

With the enemy all archers and a huge load on themselves due to archery, once the boarding melee is completed, it is not necessary to think about a terrible slaughter.

This is the reason why the navy is obviously more suitable for the archery stream, but it is more inclined to the melee stream.

Once the arrows ran out, or were boarded by the enemy, the warship full of archers had no resistance at all, which was also the key point why Sun Jian did not guess Li Ru's tactics.

At this moment, such a tragic history that has long been engraved seems to be about to happen, and the Soochow Navy has already brandished its thirsty weapons to drink the blood of the enemy.

But, but ......

The commander of the Soochow Navy widened his eyes and his eyes were about to split.

"Damn! Stop it! Stop! Bastard! ”

I saw that I was only one step away from completing the bite and the distance began to widen rapidly, and all that appeared in my eyes was a mocking smile belonging to the Maple Grove Navy.

Since he dared to use such a dangerous tactic, how could Li Ru not be completely prepared.

After assessing all the conditions he possessed and his superiority over the Soochow Navy, Li Ruhuo found that it seemed, it seems, that the equipment of the Fenglin Navy seemed to be slightly superior to that of the Soochow Navy.

Even if it's just a little bit, it's enough to show a super advantage in some key points, such as speed!

The speed of the battleships of the Fenglin Navy is probably more than one percentage point higher than that of the Dongwu Navy, which can be said to be a tiny difference, but it is such a small gap that makes it possible for Li Ru to realize the tactics of all-archer warships.

Using several small fleets as bait, they successfully ensnared the First and Second Fleets of the Soochow Navy with "stability" as the core, and quickly distanced themselves after inflicting heavy losses.

In this way, the harassment fleet with a mocking face was safe and sound in the eyes of the interception fleet that was so angry that it exploded, and the key point was the difference in speed that no one except Li Ru noticed.

"No, no, no! Archer, archery and archery! ”

The commander of the Eastern Wu roared, thanks to the suppression of the Fenglin Navy, the archers of the Eastern Wu Navy were able to preserve their strength and launch an angry counterattack at this time.

It's a pity that even this point was accurately predicted by Li Ru.

In the information provided by Gan Ning, coupled with Gan Ning's abundant naval combat capability, the armies of the two sides were almost stuck in formal contact at this time.

Compared with the huge size of the armies of both sides, the success or failure of several harassment and interception fleets is just a sound, testing the enemy's situation, and at the same time raising morale, which does not have much effect on really deciding the outcome of the war.

And, after approaching a certain distance, the main body of the Fenglin Navy immediately supported the harassment fleet, and a large number of arrows rose into the sky, falling rapidly in the sudden and terrifying tsunami of the falling commander, and once again felt the fear of being dominated by the rain of arrows.

Although the main body of the Soochow Navy also provided timely support, but at the same time, it also allowed the harassment fleet to successfully return safely to the main body under the cover of this wave of collisions, and the happy eyes deeply stung the entire interception fleet, and then they all fell into impotent rage.

Outside the live broadcast, everyone can't bear to look at it directly, it's miserable, it's too miserable.

This wave of Soochow fleet interception fleet is completely defeated, and it belongs to the kind of super fiasco in which after being humiliated and provoked by the enemy, he slapped a few times in front of him, released a stinky fart that could almost smoke people to death, and was finally left safely by the enemy.

It is completely difficult to imagine the shadow area in the hearts of the interception fleet at this moment, just looking at the Soochow Navy whose angry eyes are about to blow up, everyone can't help but feel a sense of sadness.

I don't blame you for losing miserably, I can only say that Li Ru is a bad pus, and he is worthy of the name of the god of chaos.
