Chapter 250: Give Up Lightly?
Hearing the words of his robe beside him, Deng Kai frowned slightly.
Because he always felt that this matter was not as simple as he imagined.
You must know that the warships they use now are all the standard warships of the imperial court.
It stands to reason that in such a situation, as long as one side can hit the other side, then the opposite side can also reach itself.
And the effective range of the imperial court's standard warships is also in the appearance of 100 zhang.
Is the distance between the two sides more than a hundred feet now?
But at such a distance, the other side took the lead in starting the war.
You must know that the ammunition on each ship is not abundant.
And now Lord Qin is doing this, which is obviously a waste of ammunition.
Although some people don't understand why this is the case, Deng Kai, who takes every war seriously, still does not rush to conclusions.
He also ignored the words of the robe beside him.
I don't know if it's because of Deng Kai's ignorance, which made the people around him feel dissatisfied.
Immediately the man was heard speaking again.
"Old Deng, why don't you speak??"
At this moment, Deng Kai didn't want to pay attention to the people next to him at all, and his eyes were still staring at the approaching warship in front of him.
Looking at the approaching warships, Deng Kai realized more and more that something was wrong.
In particular, the speed at which the two sides are constantly approaching has exceeded his expectations.
At the speed at which their ships were moving now, the distance between the two sides should not have been so fast.
But at the moment, Deng Kai didn't bother to think about it so much, as long as he waited for the opponent's warship to enter the range, he would order an attack as soon as possible.
As the two sides continued to get closer, Deng Kai's eyes finally lit up, and now Lord Qin, their warship had entered the firing range.
The distance of 100 zhang had arrived, but Deng Kai did not directly order the attack.
Because he's waiting!
Wait for all the ships to come into range.
He didn't want to give Lord Qin's warship any chance.
It wasn't until the actual warship completely entered and reached the attack range that Deng Kai gave the order to attack.
At this moment, Deng Kai's voice fell, and bursts of roars followed.
As the roar fell, Deng Kai's gaze stayed on the other party's exploration boat.
Originally, in his opinion, such an attack would definitely be able to hit the opposing ship.
Know that the people in charge of the artillery attack are not the recruits, but their own brothers.
But the result was beyond Zheng Kai's expectations.
Because at this moment, their attack was like a flying stone, not only did it not fall on Lord Qin's warship, but on the contrary, it fell into the sea at will.
Deng Kai looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, completely unable to figure out what was going on.
Faced with such a situation, Deng Kai couldn't help but ask loudly.
"What the hell is going on, how can it be so skewed?"
Deng Kai's roar quickly attracted everyone's attention.
And at this moment, the people on the deck are also looking at each other, obviously not knowing what the problem is.
"Hurry up! Q: What the hell just happened? ”
Deng Kai said, and his gaze had already fallen back on the other party's Lord Qin's warship.
Because at this moment, the distance between the two sides has been further narrowed.
If you follow the pillow on your side now, even if you enter the range, you may not be able to hit the ship on the opposite side.
On the contrary, if the pillow of the militia under Lord Qin is slightly better, then his side will face a catastrophic blow.
Thinking of this, how could Deng Kai not be in a hurry?
Fortunately, after a while, someone had already sent the news.
"Report! The person in charge of the launch said that it was shaking too much at sea and could not aim at all. ”
Hearing this, Deng Kai fell silent for a while.
Because Deng Kai didn't expect this to be the case.
For nearly half a year, they focused on training the formation and physical fitness of officers and men.
It never occurred to me that there was a need to train for such a project as sea shooting.
But now on the battlefield at sea, it is found that this has become an Achilles heel.
Deng Kai was stunned for a while, looking blindly ahead.
He knew that there was no hope left for them now.
The only hope now is to pray that Lord Qin's militia will not be accurate in shooting as well.
However, in Deng Kai's view, the possibility of such a situation is almost zero.
You must know that Lord Qin's subordinates have really faced the Japanese Invaders.
If they had not been able to ensure the accuracy of their artillery against the Japanese Invaders, they would not have been able to achieve such many victories.
Deng Kai, who had a wry smile on his face, looked at the ships that were approaching in front of him, and finally couldn't help but lower his head.
The soldier who had been standing beside Deng Kai also discovered his abnormality at this moment.
No matter how stupid he is, he can now see that Deng Kai's mood is wrong.
Combined with the current situation, as long as you are not stupid, you can understand what caused all this.
"No, Lao Deng, did you admit defeat so quickly?"
When he heard the person next to him say this, Deng Kai came back to his senses, slowly looked up, looked at the person next to him, and smiled helplessly.
"Lao Zhao, can't you see the gap between us?"
The soldier who was called Lao Zhao also changed his face slightly when he heard this, and he was no longer as relaxed as before.
"Didn't you say that the general was bound to win this battle? How can you give up so easily now? ”
Lao Zhao's words really woke up Deng Kai.
Yes, he was at a dead end from the start.
Thinking back to the time when they were on the frontier before, how could they not have encountered such a situation, but which time was it not to turn the tide?
Why did he give up so quickly when facing Lord Qin now?
Lao Zhao's words also made Deng Kai suddenly ignite his fighting spirit again.
"Lao Zhao, thank you."
"It's all old brothers, what are you talking about?"
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Deng Kai also ordered one after another at this moment.
"Since our artillery can't hit accurately, then we don't need artillery, archers prepare!"
"Put!"
With Deng Kai's order, the archers standing on the deck were already full of bowstrings and arrows at this moment, like wild horses on the loose, heading straight for their warship in the Qin River.
However, even with bows and arrows at the moment, they still had a blank shot.
There is no other reason, because the speed of the opponent's warship is really fast.
Even if they aimed as far as they could, and then shot the arrows in their hands, the result was still the same.
For a while, the morale of the 500 people led by Deng Kai gradually declined.
They couldn't hit the other side, and what was even more angry was that the opponent's warship was within their range.
Even standing on the deck, they could see the mocking smiles of the people on the other deck.
