Chapter049 Honesty vs. Gunnery

As a decisive force, battleships will always be an indispensable protagonist in naval warfare.

Even Wang Yu, who is sitting on a super cruise, has to admit that in terms of shock, large-caliber naval guns do have enough advantages.

The muzzle fire and thunder-like explosion of the heavy artillery salvo are incomparable to the small-caliber naval guns that focus on projection.

Of course, Annapolis is a similar spectacle at its maximum rate of fire, but it's definitely a completely different experience from a heavy artillery salvo - for example, if Annapolis is an ADC with a full output, then a battleship with heavy firepower is a heavy fighter who can attack slowly but with a single sword.

When you watch the ADC kill the opponent with output, and the warrior rushes up with the damage and directly slashes the opponent to death, although the two consume about the same time, they are two completely different senses in terms of senses.

Looking at the rising muzzle fire, listening to the sound of the cannon that came here after a period of delay, Wang Yu was a little excited, his fleet must also have a thick, long, hard, no, caliber-deep battleship, in order to be considered a comprehensive development.

I always feel that my pie is a bit big.

At present, to build a new battleship of more than 20,000 tons, you have to deal with Mio Habara, and you want to build a battleship of more than 70,000 tons......

Well, it's really not that easy - and it doesn't seem to have shipyards of more than 50,000 tons in Habara's port area.

However, it is always good to have hope, and if people lose hope, what is the difference between it and salted fish.

Wang Yu pressed all kinds of thoughts in his heart, and he focused more on the battlefield on the sea.

Well, Mio Hahara's battle plan is executing well so far, the destroyer torpedoes have divided the battlefield, the light cruiser is ready to play a projection advantage under the cover of the destroyer smoke, and the remaining three heavy cruisers and battle cruisers have also begun to launch a concentrated fire attack towards the chaotic siren fleet, the main gun salvo has been fired one after another, and the shells are about to fall on the siren's head.

There was a reason why the siren fleet could wreak havoc, and although it was taken advantage of by the attack launched by Mio Habara, the moment the latter opened fire, all the siren ships immediately entered attack mode, and the muzzles of the guns rotated and quickly launched a counterattack.

For a while, the artillery roared on the sea, but due to the night, Wang Yu could only see the flash when the cannon was fired.

Who let the ship mother fight without light, and the night battle does not need to be lit up, it can be carried out by all perception, which makes the commander suffer, and he can only get some key information by communicating with the ship mother around him.

Anna thoughtfully updated the positions of both sides on the ship's electronic map.

The Sirens were disrupted in the previous deployment of the fleet, so at present, their warships are facing different angles, and the Sirens actually have salvo angles of naval guns, and some of the naval guns either can't turn to a certain angle, or they can't fire when facing certain angles, in short, there are only five or six Siren warships that can exert their full firepower now.

So, in the initial shelling, they temporarily fell to the upper hand in terms of projection.

On Mio Hahara's side, it was the Amagi that took the lead in getting hits.

Amagi is worthy of being a highly trained ship, and the first salvo of ten 410 mm guns hit a siren who was making a big turn to adjust the attitude of the battleship, this is a siren battleship, with a whistling sound, ten armor-piercing shells fell from the air, half of them fell into the water, but half of them also shot into the siren's hull from the side.

Although a few shells did not cause effective damage to the sirens because they did not hit the critical areas of the sirens, two shells accurately pierced the waterline part of the siren and hit the power part of the sirens - and then a flash of fire gushed out from the hit point, and even the mist caused by the missed cannonballs could not be concealed, which was obviously effective damage.

Siren warships also have weaknesses, such as the power section and the armament section, which are collectively called the "core area", although the armor in the core area is the thickest, but once hit, it can cause damage to the sirens that is difficult to repair in a short time.

On the contrary, similar to the fire wounds caused by high-explosive shells to the sirens and the damage caused by the piercing of the cannonballs, the sirens can be repaired in battle, of course, not indefinitely, and the repairable damage reaches a limit, and the quantitative change causes the qualitative change, and the siren can also be sunk.

Therefore, Amagi directly hit the core area of the siren battleship with two shots, and in an instant, it caused great damage to the siren battleship, and in the next battle, the ability of the main force of this siren to resist attacks will be significantly reduced.

But the first round of shooting of Habara Mio's fleet is not for everyone to start like Amagi.

There are many things that can affect the shooting accuracy of naval guns, such as the shape of the shell, air humidity, atmospheric density, wind and even Coriolis force and a series of factors will act on the shells, and cause the naval guns to not completely hit the aiming point after firing, but will randomly fall within an elliptical range of about a few hundred meters, which is a fact that the ship mother can't change.

So the walk of King Kong's eight 356-mm guns played a wave.

Eight shells were evenly distributed around the siren warship she was aiming at, which was considered a straddle fire - in the previous world, this was actually a very accurate attack, but in this world with a ship mother, it can't be counted accurately if you can't get a starting hit.

On the bridge of the King Kong, although the blonde lady was not very satisfied with the elastic performance of her naval guns and guns, she still remained calm, and took a sip of black tea elegantly, as if it was not her who missed the round just now.

It doesn't matter if you don't hit in the first round, you just need to continue in the second round.

Eugen's target was another Siren's main force - but due to the distance, she used a high-explosive shell, hoping to set the Siren on fire, but unfortunately, although her high-explosive shell hit accurately, six of the eight shots missed, but it failed to catch fire, and a few shells shattered on the main armor belt of the Siren because they were not deep enough, and failed to cause damage.

And the first round of the siren's counterattack was also launched simultaneously when they were attacked, but the logic of the siren's shelling in this world is that there is no prediction factor in it, so this long-distance artillery bombardment, which takes a certain amount of time to land, was easily dodged by the girls in the Habara Mio fleet.

Even Amagi, which was relatively less mobile, made a simple adjustment and let the round of cannonballs that the sirens had attacked her fall into the water a few hundred meters away.

In general, the first round of attacks by Mio Habara's fleet caused some damage to the sirens, but the naval battle itself is difficult to have the kind of event that can determine the trend of the battlefield in an instant, and even the battle between the ship mother and the siren generally takes a while to gradually open up the battle damage.

It's just that Mio Habara's main fleet still has a small number of warships compared to the main force of the sirens.

At present, it is only by relying on early preparation that it temporarily occupies a certain advantage.

But if the sirens are really powerless because of this, then they are not sirens either.

As soon as the battle began, the sirens regrouped their fighting posture in the fastest way possible.

They did not restore their fleet formation for the time being, but began to ensure that their firepower could be fully utilized as soon as possible.

Therefore, it was only when Mio Habara's main force fired in the second round that the firepower of the siren's counterattack was obviously improved, although it was still able to evade, but it was enough to see that if the siren really counterattacked comprehensively, the firepower density was indeed very strong.

Mio Habara didn't know what to do.

"That's why I said it would be nice if the torpedo just now could sink one or two sirens."

Wang Yu complained, and then he said to Anna: "Anna, continue to move to the side of the siren fleet and see the right time to join the battle." ”
