Chapter059 What About Your High Explosive Bombs?

When the battleship slowly withdrew from the dock, Wang Yu asked Miss Venice about the specific information about the battleship by the way.

He knew that data was one thing, but there were some more detailed things that he still had to ask the ship's mother.

As a result, Miss Venice's first sentence surprised Wang Yu a little.

She said that she had two types of spare ammunition in her arsenal, one that was naturally armor-piercing and the other that was semi-armor-piercing.

Semi-armor-piercing shells?

Wang Yu was stunned at the time, how did he change the bomb species?

Where did your high-explosive bombs go?

It's a pity that these fifteen main guns don't fire high-explosive shells to cover the sirens, okay.

When he chose the information at that time, he only glanced at the information of the armament system, mainly focusing on the naval artillery, and he really didn't pay much attention to the ammunition, after all, they were all cruisers, and what else could be selected for ammunition.

But I didn't expect Venice to use semi-armor-piercing bullets...... Not very common ammunition configurations.

Semi-armor-piercing projectile (SAP) can be roughly understood as an armor-piercing projectile with a shortened fuse and a small amount of charge, or a high-explosive projectile with increased body strength and reduced charge, which is in a transitional position between a high-explosive projectile and an armor-piercing projectile.

It has a certain armor-piercing ability, but it is not as strong as a genuine armor-piercing bullet.

To put it simply, you can wear it, but you can only wear it a little bit.

And this characteristic gives the semi-armor-piercing projectile an extremely good ability to fight lightly armored targets.

The armor of a lightly armored target can be pierced by a semi-armor-piercing projectile without overpenetration, and enough charge to detonate inside the target can cause enough damage.

Wang Yu touched his chin and thought, this ammunition configuration in Venice is very interesting.

Against the specialization of non-capital Siren ships, as long as the fifteen shells are accurate, a Siren destroyer can be carried away with fifteen shells......

As for the heavy main force dealing with the sirens, they can also rely on semi-armor-piercing shells to hit the weakly protected areas of those siren battleships, so as to have the effect of causing damage to the sirens - anyway, killing the sirens does not have to cause serious damage to the core area, as long as the damage is accumulated enough to send them to the bottom of the sea.

Not bad.

It's just that the semi-armor-piercing bullet hits direct damage, and it can't continue to weaken the siren's HP like a high-explosive bullet.

There are pros and cons, it still depends on the occasion of the application.

Miss Venice then spoke of her current reload time, which was about twenty seconds for a round of shells.

There is no exact value for time, as she is not trained enough at the moment, so the state of the hull will affect how fast she can reload.

In other words, when she is concentrating on controlling the battleship, it may take twenty-five or six seconds to load one round, and if she concentrates on loading and does not distract herself from controlling the hull, then it is estimated that it will take twenty seconds to load one round.

But in any case, this round of reload time is really long.

Some large-caliber battleships were able to compress the reload time to a little over 20 seconds.

According to Venice, the reason for this longer than the usual 203 mm heavy cruise reloading time is limited by the hull design of the Venice, due to the narrow hull itself, and the armor belt squeezes the gun mount space, so the arrangement of the loafers and ammunition in the ammunition depot is limited, and it is impossible to complete the loading quickly.

Don't use Annapolis as a rule of thumb for heavy patrols, her rate of fire is only pulled up by an autoloader.

Autoloading actually has drawbacks, once Anna's main gun area is hit, it is easy to damage, causing the entire turret to work, which is why Wang Yu installed the main gun maintenance enhancement plug-in for her.

In short, the Venetian armament system is probably like this.

Wang Yu felt that he had to take her to practice first, so that she could exert her maximum rate of fire in battle.

This Miss Venice is a serious character, and she must not be irritated by the need to train harder.

By the time he understood this, Venice had already moved the hull into the harbor.

Next to her was the Annapolis.

Once born and twice cooked, Wang Yu already knew where the site of the ship's sea trial was, so this time there was no need to let Habara Mio lead the way, and the girl was looking forward to her Venetian class that was about to be built because of the colorful light.

The ship's mother can control the hull from a certain distance, and the higher the training, the farther the range of air control.

So Anna didn't have to go back to her this time, she was on the Venice with Wang Yu.

The bridges in Venice are not as advanced as those in Annapolis, but they are probably the only places on board that are spacious.

The tall Mademoiselle Venice stood straight in front of the porthole, holding her sword in one hand, looking intently at the ocean ahead.

Wang Yu couldn't help but nodded secretly.

It seems that this new ship lady is indeed rigorous and serious, and she will never be distracted when controlling the navigation of the battleship......

"Commander, this is the performance of a low-level shipwive." Anna seemed to watch Wang Yu's gaze fall on Venice, so she took the initiative to say to Wang Yu: "In order to make the voyage stable, they need to be distracted, and for the high-level ship mother, this is indeed the same instinct as eating and drinking, and it does not need any posture to perfectly control the hull." ”

Wang Yu: "......"

Well, I made up my mind about the ship mother with human thoughts......

He suddenly remembered something, so he turned his head and whispered to Anna, "Speaking of which, I was curious just now, where did the bayonet sword in Venice's hand come from?" With such a gorgeous shape, could it be that the shipyard made it together? ”

"This is a kind of shipwn-girl's personal decoration, and the commander can understand that it is...... Well, exclusive weapons. ”

Anna tilted her head: "It was formed together with clothes and accessories when consciousness was formed, and I also have it here, but it is not in the form of a stabbing sword." ”

Wang Yu was a little dumbfounded, he had never seen anything like a weapon around Anna.

Anna looked at Wang Yu's surprised look, so she reached behind her back.

After a while, she already held two M1911-shaped pistols in her hands, one black and one white, the black one called ebony white and the one called white ivory, sorry to string on the set, in short, she did hold two pistols in her hands.

Wang Yu took the black one, compared it, and found that this gun and ordinary pistols could not be distinguished, it was just a weapon with the shape of a firearm, at least Wang Yu couldn't pull out the magazine, and he didn't see Huang Chengcheng's bullet when he opened the sleeve.

Maybe it's really like Anna said, only the ship's mother can use it, and the symbolic meaning is greater than the actual meaning.

"Where did you get it from?"

Wang Yu's focus is quite strange.

"I store them in a 'high-dimensional space' that only the ship's mother can reach."

Anna replied simply.

It's hard for Wang Yu not to care about the "high-dimensional space" statement.

Speaking of which, he has also been exposed to a lot of things that the gods have been talking about recently, from the mental core to the gate of the transition realm, from the ship mother to this strange high-dimensional space that seems to be able to be used as a space storage device, he feels that his worldview has become indestructible.

He then asked in passing, and Anna gave a simple answer.

The almost endless huge energy in the mental core comes from that high-dimensional space, and the ability of the ship girl is also the power drawn from the space, and the ship mother can touch that space by mobilizing the mental core.

As for the rest, Anna couldn't say.

And Venice naturally also has this ability, after Wang Yu asked, she showed Wang Yu an operation to take back the sword and then take it out, and Wang Yu was amazed to see it.

Wang Yu returned the pistol to Anna and told her to put it away.

By this time, the battleship had already left the waterway of the fjord.

Although Wang Yu wanted to take Venice to the archipelago he found two days ago after the sea trial, he thought about the current situation of lack of building materials, and it was not feasible to go over and open up the wasteland for the time being.

Later, I will find a legal identity in this world and be able to get resources from the Navy Administration, or borrow the female lady Stove God with strong infrastructure capabilities from Mio Habara.

Annapolis slowly came to a halt, while the Venice began to accelerate and enter the test.

Venice followed the process through the basics, accelerating, decelerating, turning sharply, volleying, half salvo, and round-fire alternately.

But unlike Anna's smooth operation, Miss Venice's operation is a bit ......

Well, it's hard to evaluate.

The first is maneuvering, her maneuver is very stiff, and it is basically difficult to turn to the position she wants at the first time, either because the rudder hits less so she doesn't turn enough, or the rudder hits too much so she turns her head.

To be honest, this kind of performance did not make the Venice have a high maneuverability very well.

And her artillery bombardment and maneuver are not smooth.

The shells were not accurate, and even if the target was a non-moving target on an island, she could make a lot of misses, and even a few rounds of shells fell into the sea.

Unless she shoots accurately without maneuvering, she can guarantee a hit.

Seeing this, Anna shook her head slightly.

Wang Yu had to sigh in his heart, this should be the level of a newborn ship, and Anna is really full of strength.

Venice's face was also a little red, half out of embarrassment and half out of chagrin.

Naturally, she knew she wasn't doing well.

Although Anna didn't say it explicitly, you knew by looking at her expression that she must have disappointed her.

Well, that's too bad.

But she quickly cheered up, she must improve herself, she can't be discouraged, every ship girl has gone through this process to become a high-level existence, and she will definitely be able to carry out the battle smoothly in the future.

In short, after a series of tests, Wang Yu understood that Venice's current level must not challenge the Siren Grand Fleet, and he must be more leisurely in the face of some free sirens with high intensity.

Although the high design level of the battleship itself can make up for the gap caused by some training, under the worldview of the ship's mother, the combat effectiveness of the battleship mainly depends on these girls to give full play.

Anyway, let's find some inshore and non-critical battles for Venice to fight after that.

Then it's a matter of finding an opportunity to find a way to take on some tasks from the Navy General Administration to further improve her training in simple tasks.

So for now, let's go home.

Venice, however, suddenly said to him, "Commander, I have one more ability to show you here. ”

Wang Yu naturally signaled her to be casual.

Venice nodded, then closed his eyes slightly.

In the next second, a thick wall of fog suddenly formed around the battleship.

Wang Yu suddenly got up, and looked at the visibility around him that had been reduced to several meters for a moment, and he raised his eyebrows.

Wang Yu, who had experienced the previous naval battle, naturally knew what the situation was.

Based on the ability of the ship, the smoke formed by the smoke generator.

Does Venice actually have this device?

She's not a destroyer.

Doesn't the smoke generator have to be used by a destroyer?

Moreover, the battleship is currently advancing at a speed of thirty knots.

According to what Wang Yu knew before, when the destroyer uses the smoke generator, the smoke will form behind the hull and cannot cover the battleship that is moving forward.

In other words, the destroyer must slow down to a certain extent in order to allow the newly formed smoke to envelop the battleship in real time and realize the function of moving and concealing.

However, the current Venice is able to use smoke generators at high speeds......

Wang Yu instantly reacted to what level of tactical advantage this would bring.

When fighting the sirens, you only need to pick a suitable time to pull up the smoke, and you can get absolute concealment for a period of time, whether you want to sneak up on the siren's flank, or be chased by the sirens and want to escape, a just right smoke can solve many problems.

Wang Yu then asked a few more questions about Venice's ability.

In the smoke, Venice can't perceive the sirens from the outside, and of course the sirens can't perceive Venice in the smoke, which is similar to the nature of ordinary smoke, so when you want to pull the smoke to attack the sirens, you need to make sure that there are other shipwives who can provide a view of the sirens.

Time passed in Wang Yu's inquiry.

And the work on the smoke generator was soon over.

Surprisingly, however, after the smoke generator stopped working, the smoke generated did not last on the surface of the sea for a while like the smoke released by other destroyers, and the smoke generated by Venice dissipated only for a moment.

For example, it's a bit like the smoke from an early steam train that can cover the front of the locomotive, but only the front of the locomotive.

It seems that the smoke could only provide concealment for Venice himself and the other warships that followed, and could not pull out a wall of fog to obscure a large area of Siren's view like a destroyer.

It can only be said that the nature is special, and there are pros and cons.

It's a killer feature of Venice.

Although Anna does not quite recognize the current combat effectiveness of Venice, she still recognizes the gold content of this train smoke.

In short, after the first sea trial, Wang Yu asked Miss Venice to turn the bow of the ship and return to port.
