Chapter 402: Risk Agent, Battleship Fighting Technique
Under the increasingly violent storm, the waves of the storm ocean are stacked on top of each other, gradually piling up an endless mountain hill on the surface of the ocean.
The big waves broke the peak, and the white foam was rolled into strips by the sea breeze, like countless white snakes surging on the crest of the waves.
"The wind direction is due north, the wind force is 7, the wind speed is 32 knots, and the starboard side is wind-close to the wind! Grab the T-word. ”
"Port side wind - sail against the wind! Grab the T-word. ”
The moment they saw each other, Byron and Pizarro each gave the same order.
The two battleships were like graceful dancers dancing opposite each other, one in the east and the other in the west, and began to sail through the wind at the same time in the big waves, ready to seize the upper hand at the first time.
The sail and longitudinal sail layout of the two-masted hybrid sailing ship makes it far more efficient than a full-sail sail when the wind blows.
The [Thirteen Warriors] with full crosssail configuration has a wind angle of nearly 60°.
In the mixed sail configuration, the [Golden Deer] with a huge longitudinal sail and a three-sided raised sail is not even 30° to the wind.
That's not even counting the bow of the ship, like the South Wind Maiden, who already has the ability to distort the direction of the wind by 30°: the Wind Conductor.
A cursory study of the Pythagorean theorem shows how desperate the efficiency gap between the two sides is.
It can be said that in the track of the wind, even without the blessing of the extraordinary effects of "the world's first clipper" and "the fast line of seeing the ship", the [Golden Deer], as a Tudor mixed sailing ship, is also the king of the ruling level!
The Thirteen Warriors were obviously closer to the north to get the upper hand, but they were soon caught up by the Golden Deer.
"Length, put away the mainsail!"
"Yes. Collect the mainsail and prepare for engagement. ”
The mainsail is the sail closest to the deck of the mast, and in naval battles it is not only an obstacle to combat, but also the most susceptible to ignition by artillery fire, and must be retracted before engagement.
As they got closer, they saw each other as well.
The image of the [Lord of Heaven] of the indigenous youth of Byron was only shown to the prince of Atahualpa, and in the eyes of others, he was still the appearance of Byron Tudor after [cognitive correction].
"Kingdom of Castile, [Marauder] Francisco Pizarro, prepare for the end."
"Kingdom of Hattings, [Sea Hunter] Byron Tudor, you are very good! The scavenging hyena that followed Castile to pick up meat to eat dared to bare his teeth at the lion. ”
cracking sound
The eyes of the two captains and mid-sequence transcendents collided, and there seemed to be lightning flashing in the heavy rain in the air.
"Each gun on the port side assembles solid shells, prepares double shells, and listens to my instructions."
With the steering wheel in his hand, Byron extended the superior control of [Divine Vision] to the entire ship with the extraordinary ability of [Storm Admiral], turning every part of the Golden Deer into his own eyes, ears, hands, and feet
Transcending the "Great Ship Saint" who could only make one move descend from the sky, the "Great Ship Saint" began to gradually reach the realm of "the unity of man and ship", which is not a ship spirit but is similar to a ship spirit.
As soon as he came up, he shot with all his might.
His initiative to challenge Castile's adventure ship this time was not just a simple whim, but a tacit understanding between adventurers from all over the world.
In fact, the national strategies of the countries have always been clear.
The Castilians were constantly thinking about driving everyone out of the country and monopolizing all interests.
There are countless internal and external tactics used to build the Great Wall of the Sea, block shipping routes, set up cards to collect taxes, destroy the indigenous empire, spread plagues on a large scale, and fight for the right to protect the church.
Although this idea has become more and more difficult to realize as the Age of Discovery, countries have been given more and more opportunities and resources.
But the direction of action has not changed, and whenever the opportunity arises, it will ruthlessly sweep other countries out of the country.
The same is true in other countries, where the invisible anti-Castilian coalition has always existed, and whenever the opportunity arises, it is necessary to fall in love with the Castilian who love to eat alone.
Although it is a slow knife to cut meat, as long as everyone cuts together, there will always be a day when the boss will be put down and he will take the position.
It's also to blame Castile for being too domineering, and the word "win-win cooperation" has never been used in the dictionary.
Byron's beating of the water dogs is too politically correct!
He still lacks hard power.
Even if he has secretly built the privateer fleet of the Pioneer Pilot Colonial Trading Company, mastered the ghost fleet with the [Blue Dragon King], and laid a solid foundation of tens of millions of people in the two major indigenous empires.
However, the time for development is too short, and it is still not enough to see in front of those old state-level forces.
Since his strength is not very good, he can't stand up a mountain alone for the time being, so he can only meet the source left and right and silently improve his strength.
With his current ability, it is perfectly okay to drag the Castilians back.
It's hard to get things done, but it's easy to do bad things.
Especially when he realized that the [Sun God] Inti, who ruled the Sun Empire and intimidated the old god clans on the East Coast, might not be as simple as a fifth-order [False God].
Byron immediately changed his strategy and returned to the route he had taken before the conquest of the Azik and Taya empires.
——Seek collaborators, cultivate agents, carefully maintain balance in the cracks surrounded by predators, and then absorb nutrients little by little to strengthen themselves.
This is one of Byron's best housekeeping skills.
The comprehensive vision of [Divine Vision] swept over the native prince who stopped to watch the battle in the sky, and nodded silently in his heart:
"Prince Atahualpa, the heir to the Sun Empire, is clearly a good candidate.
The rugged colonization 1.0 model of the Kingdom of Castile is no longer suitable for this era that has changed but not completely changed.
I hooked up with him as the Emperor of the Holy Golden Empire as a 'Northern Relative', and the best outcome would be to support him in the future race for the throne, and at the very least, I would be able to use him as a springboard to find a suitable agent.
In the future, he may be able to reach close cooperation with the new king and unite the Golden Empire and the Sun Empire into a free alliance of indigenous empires.
Even in the face of the colonial powers of the Old World, as well as the unfounded clans on the East Coast, they are a force to be reckoned with.
Since then, the two natives have cooperated for a win-win situation, and no one dares to speak loudly to me and the two of us.
In the next development of the southern continent, after eating the upper family and eating the next family, after eating the 'fellow countrymen' and eating the 'same clan', I will never lose money. ”
"Of course, the plan is good, and it may or may not succeed in the end, after all, how can there be a profitable deal in the world?
But judging from the prince's series of performances, at least he is much more upright and civilized than the colonists who came from afar.
And Castile, the Thirteen Warriors who almost fought back against Atahualpa, is the target for me to show my strength to my future allies.
It's just your own bad luck. ”
This is the first time since the launch of the new [Golden Deer] that it has encountered a one-on-one battleship that is evenly matched.
If it weren't for the fact that this opponent who was supposed to be evenly matched had been beaten to death in advance, Byron would definitely not have fought him alone.
Pizarro on the other side didn't feel anything wrong with Byron's falling into the well.
"It's the [Golden Deer] and St. Byron who just made a splash in the Nightmare Triangle.
Just a few days after occupying the whaling ground, he suddenly came to the west coast to grab land with us, doesn't this guy know how to take a break?
A privateer captain from a civilian background is really worried about the kingdom of Hattings.

You work so hard Edward IV knows?
One is busy having children with the first beauty in the Channel Islands all day long, and the other is born and died overseas.
You might as well sit in the king's seat, fool! ”
He didn't even ask why the other party was attacking him, he made the same attack posture at the first time, and he didn't even care about the sun chariots above his head.
After all, if you change to the fourth order of any of the five great sea powers, you will not hesitate to make the exact same choice as the other party.
Even if he himself encounters a damaged adventure ship of another country, he will immediately beat the water dogs.
But being able to understand does not mean that you can accept it calmly.
A face as steady as an old fur seal, but in his heart he was almost so angry that he vomited blood.
For those natives who have never fought against the transcendent people of the [Ladder of Glory] sequence, they may be able to escape their lives by surprise, but they may not be able to have this kind of good luck when they encounter other colonists who know their roots.
The two ships continued to approach.
Due to the impressive speed of the sail battleship, naval warfare in this era often began with the discovery of the target, the cook began to cook, and after eating, he took a short break before officially engaging in the battle.
The two battleships, one 60 degrees east of north and the other 30 degrees west of north, met exactly vertically after a long run, and the [Golden Deer] took the lead in seizing the "T" prefix of the other party with the priority of seeing the ship's fast line.
At this moment, the roar of wind and waves, torrential rain, and sea tides all flew away, and only each other was left in the eyes of the two warships.
All the onlookers also subconsciously swallowed their saliva.
"Boom."
Byron, who had already integrated with the [Golden Deer], decisively grabbed the fighter, burst out with spiritual light, and the starlight body traveled and possessed the battleship:
"Storm Weapon Enchantment! Artillery range extended! Command the Storm Elves! Adjust the angle of fire of each gun group and fire at me! ”
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
As the Golden Deer passed the bow of the opposing battleship, the 18-pounder and 32-pounder Caron guns arranged on the side opened fire in turn.
In the heavy rain, the cannon flames exploded, and the cannonballs enchanted by the storm carried huge kinetic energy and a cold spiral air current, tearing through the white waterlines in the rain curtain and accurately landing on the bow of the Thirteen Warriors.
The speed bumps opened by the [One-third Speed Deceleration Pocket Watch], and the water curtain that was opened by the [Onyx Jellyfish] have been violently destroyed by a round of fourth-order mythical creatures [Children of the Sun], and they have not yet recovered.
Now there is another wave of artillery bombardment that is not inferior to the meteor shower, and finally it can no longer hold on.
When the fourth cannon was blocked, it exploded in mid-air, and the shells behind it drilled into the weak bow tower without much hull protection one after another.
After flattening the deck, the Golden Deer was already much shorter than other Galen sailing ships.
At this time, after breaking through the defense, it immediately screamed and bounced, crushing the entire line along the way, the already heavy losses of the Castilian colonists into a blood mist.
Only the two 6-pounder cannons placed on the bow of the Thirteen Warriors could return fire, and the lethality was better than nothing.
However, a few strange-shaped treasure elves unleashed a bit of trouble with their ranged attacks, but most of them were blocked by the torrent of water summoned by Gary.
Even if there are a few misses, the mid-sequence transcendents on board can handle it with ease.
After the firing of the eleven guns on one side, the Golden Deer also successfully reached the upwind position, and after turning into the wind, it was approximately parallel to the enemy ship.
"Assemble shells for each cannon, change the chain shells, and raise the angle of fire! Fire! ”
The two battleships, separated by only a hundred meters, walked in close proximity to each other, and at the same time gave the order to open fire.
Dozens of orange-yellow cannon flames suddenly illuminated the dark and dreary sea.
A large white smoke rose up, and all of it blew on the face of the Thirteen Warriors under the force of the wind, and even the torrential rain could not extinguish it for a moment.
The shelling of the Golden Deer was noticeably faster, denser and more accurate.
Bang!
A spherical projectile hit the outboard hull of the Thirteen Warriors, instantly creating a high-speed shock wave at the point of impact, which propagated to the junction of the oak hull in the blink of an eye, and then reflected back again.
The shock wave travels extremely fast, and when the reflected wave hits the spherical projectile again, the projectile immediately deforms and tears.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of irregularly shaped fragments of death flew in all directions in the cabin on the back of the hull.
Among them were wood chips and shell fragments, but they were no less deadly.
"Ahhh
The nearby gunners were beaten into a sieve on the spot, and the terrible wails made the battle-hardened companions around them tremble.
There were sailors who had been cut off by broken timber crawling miserably on the ground, leaving large blood stains.
However, he was immediately relieved of the pain by his companion's re-gun, and then threw it out of the cannon door, which is the standard operation in wartime to prevent corpses from interfering with the firing of guns.
"Shoot back, shoot back!"
The Thirteen Warriors is also a strange warship, and the shells are also fierce and fierce enough.
However, even if a cannonball falls on the Golden Deer, a holy relic battleship with a [Lasting Freshness] effect, it is not much different from smashing on the iron armor.
Even if there were fragments, it would not be fatal to the crew members who had bitten the [Azk's Cursed Gold] in their mouths and turned into the "Deathwing" living dead.
Before you know it, they've grown to the point where they are now.
Even if you fight against a strange object battleship commanded by a fourth-order transcendent, you can almost achieve zero battle damage.
At the same time, the exclusive BGM "Katyusha" belonging to Byron, a patient with "lack of firepower", sounded melodiously.
The sound of violins and melodious female voices resounded throughout the battlefield.
The salvo of battleships, which was already sharp enough, increased in intensity again.
Woooooooo
The mournful whimper of the cannonballs instantly made people's scalps tingle.
"Increases the reload efficiency and fire density of your shells by 50%, and all shells have their own tracer and organ sound effects, and there is a 5% chance that kinetic energy will be converted into heat energy and cause an explosion when hitting a target.
50% increased enemy scare and morale breakdown! ”
The next moment, a chain bullet composed of iron chains and cannonballs exploded after slicing off the opponent's mainmast, and the howling hot wind swept away a nearby crew member.
Before it could fall, it was torn into a sack by shreds.
The original ordinary solid bullet was unexpectedly hit by them with the amazing power of the flowering bullet.
"Oh no! Carpenter, damage management team hurry up. ”
The [Thirteen Warriors] was already in the downwind wake zone of the [Golden Deer], and its maneuverability was seriously insufficient.
Instantly became a live target for the Golden Deer.
Even though some people were still calling the carpenters to repair the ship, the experienced old fur seals all chuckled in their hearts, knowing that the enemy would not give them any more chance, and they all looked desperate:
"The Thirteen Warriors are finished!"
