Chapter 505: Conquest and Plunder (21)
Guo Dalu slapped his palms: "Medium! That's the bet! By the way, is Xiao Aike safe?"
Mrs. Nanzi, the bone girl, said: "Don't worry, I won't let Xiao Ai be hurt." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" said, the ribs were divided, revealing the little face of Aida Sakura who was sleeping inside, but it turned out that when Gou Buri didn't think about Aida Sakura's safety at all and threw Molotov cocktails in the small bathroom, Mrs. Nanzi, the bone girl, immediately protected Aida Sakura into her body, and the ribs were closed into a whole, like armor, protecting Aida Sakura well.
Guo Dalu nodded: "No matter how many men you have harmed, you are sincere to Xiao Ai, so be it, if you lose, I won't kill you, just let you go." Anyway, what you devour are all men from the country of Entrusted Slaves, and it has nothing to do with me how many people die. ”
Mrs. Nanzi, the bone girl, found a clicky laugh: "The victory is not scored, but Mr. Houlong said it too early." Her eyes were on the side of Kyoto Bay, where she must have already done it, right?
Kyoto Bay, I don't know when, the boiler of the ironclad fleet has been fully opened, the pressure has risen to the maximum, the ships roared away from the dock, Wu Qing stood on the bridge, staring at the Marine barracks on the pier, secretly worried, without the protection of the naval guns, the marines can only rely on small arms and a few mortars and grenadiers, can they stop the enemy. But he quickly shook his head, the ironclad fleet can only talk about supporting the marines if they defeat the enemy from the sea first.
Wu Qing turned his head and asked, "What's going on on the radar and sonar?"
The radar soldier said nervously: "Two large targets are rapidly approaching, they should find that our fleet has suddenly moved, the impact speed has increased a lot, and contact is expected to occur in ten minutes!"
Wu Qing ordered: "The fleet moves to the open sea at full speed and widens the distance from the enemy!" Guo Dalu handed over the entire ironclad fleet to Wu Qing's command, and at this time, even Shi Xiaofeng had to obey Wu Qing's orders, so when Wu Qing faced the enemy's attack, he actually ran at full speed, losing face, but Shi Xiaofeng did not object, still obeyed the order, and followed closely.
Wu Qing was looking through an atlas in front of him, muttering: "If Mr. Houlong's analysis is not wrong, then the one who comes to attack must be the giant demon in the sea unique to the country of Weinuer, the big octopus and the sea snake! Although this big octopus and sea snake are huge and can easily overturn ships, they used to deal with wooden sea ships, and we are steam-powered ironclads!" The only thing to worry about is a special oil secreted by the sea serpent, which is said to float on the surface of the sea and can cause passing ships to lose their buoyancy and sink to the bottom of the sea. Therefore, our fleet must distance itself from the enemy and give full play to the power of long-range artillery fire!"
Wu Qing had already made up his mind and ordered: "Order all ships, high-explosive bombs, salvo!"
The positioning data of the big octopus and the sea snake more than ten nautical miles away obtained by the radar scan was transmitted to the gun positions, and with the order of Wu Qing, the high main gun spit out flames that were extremely dazzling in the dark night, and the heavy shells flew out of the muzzle and rushed towards the target!
Boom, boom, the column of water exploded on the surface of the sea, and the big octopus and sea serpent that were advancing rapidly had already made a clear inquiry into the attack method and power of the ironclad fleet - the captured personnel in the naval battle of the Ennuer country would have something to hide in the face of the inquiries of their own cultivators, and even disregarded the loss of face, and clearly analyzed why their own fleet was defeated and why the ironclad fleet was victorious.
At this time, seeing that the ironclad fleet did not come into close contact with its own side, but exerted the power of long-range artillery fire, the big octopus and the sea snake immediately dived underwater, and one high-explosive bomb after another just exploded a cluster of water columns on the sea surface in vain.
Uqing soon got a radar report - the target disappeared, and at the same time, the sonar soldier reported - a large object in the deep sea approaching at high speed!
Wu Qing tapped his fingers lightly on the command platform - this action, but he learned it unintentionally from Guo Dalu - the enemy is not stupid, he actually used the trick of stealth, completely abandoning his long-range artillery advantage. The most feared thing about this surface fleet is the enemy hiding under the surface of the sea, and with the right tactics, a submarine can deter an entire small fleet. The combat power of the giant octopus and the sea serpent of the Venezuelan country far exceeds that of ordinary submarines! These two cargo, which do not need to be ventilated at all at the bottom of the sea, are even more awesome than nuclear submarines and AIP submarines.
Uqing ordered the ships to increase their horsepower and further increase their speed - his battle plan was simple, open the distance, exert long-range firepower, in short, not to engage in close combat with large octopuses and sea snakes.
However, according to the sonar soldier's report, the enemy's speed has not slowed down, but the distance between the two sides is constantly shortening, which is a mistake in the analysis of the submarine, the speed of the submarine on the bottom of the sea is slower than the speed of the whole float on the sea, but the big octopus and the sea snake are originally monsters in the sea, sneaking in the sea, they are really like fish in water, and they swim faster.
On the contrary, Wu Qing received a report from the boiler room, such a high-speed voyage, the damage to the boiler is great, at most half an hour later, the boiler pressure must be reduced, otherwise it will cause permanent irreparable damage to the boiler and axle system.
Wu Qing let out a long sigh, the ironclad fleet of the Science Gate looked majestic and swept across the ocean, but in fact, there were still various flaws, such as the boiler and wheel axle, which were made by the cultivator's spells, and there seemed to be no problem on the surface, but in fact, the internal quality was not good - the reason was very simple, in order to save spiritual power, the cultivator would be like an ordinary hawker and engage in some fake and shoddy products. Guo Dalu is not ignorant of the inside story, but in order to build an epoch-making ironclad ship as soon as possible, he can only open one eye and close one eye.
Only when the Science Gate has fully built its own industrial system that does not rely on the mana of the cultivators can it fundamentally change this problem.
Wu Qing ordered: "Launch the torpedo!"
Plopping and plopping, one after another torpedoes were shot into the sea, and they pounced on the big octopus and the sea snake.
Wu Qing sneered, why do you think you can avoid my artillery fire by hiding in the sea? Let you taste the torpedo!
The sonar soldier covered his headset and nervously reported: "One minute later, the torpedo touches the target -- the last twenty seconds, the last ten seconds, ten, nine, eight, seven -- huh, the enemy sonar target disappears!"
Wu Qing slapped the command platform: "The sonar target has disappeared? How is it possible?! Ah, damn it! This big octopus and the sea snake are not still moving forward, as long as they stop advancing, the noise will disappear, and it will almost merge with the background sound of the ocean! And our torpedo is located by sonar -- damn it!"
Ten nautical miles away, the big octopus and the sea snake were quietly suspended in the sea, motionless, allowing the fish to swim beside them, and in front, several black torpedoes were being pushed by the compressed air, galloping towards them, but the big octopus and the sea snake were still only slowly floating with the current, and did not make any counterattack.
Under the guidance of the sonar guidance head of the torpedo, it was shot at the target, but it was soon found that the target was lost, and the sonar guidance head received only the background noise of the ocean and the sound of fish swimming, and the torpedo drew an arc, and finally chased the noise made by a whale in the distance, and pursued the past, but passed by the real target big octopus and the sea snake.
The cultivators and monsters of the Enuer Kingdom are not stupid, on the contrary, almost all of them who can cultivate for hundreds of years and thousands of years are extremely smart, and when they found out the details of the naval battle between the fleet of the Ennuer Kingdom and Mr. Houlong from the mouths of the great generals and others, they immediately understood that the kind of weapon that attacks the bottom of the enemy's ship in the sea must be able to distinguish the enemy's position through sound.
Therefore, the great octopus and the sea serpent, just standing still, easily avoided the search attack of the torpedo.
The guidance and guidance of torpedoes mainly include sound guidance, line guidance, wake, magnetic and other means, while the torpedo tossed by Guo Dalu is a relatively rudimentary sonar guidance, so that it can be easily cracked by the big octopus and the sea snake.
Wu Qing heard a few dull explosions from the far bottom of the sea, it was a torpedo exploding, but both he and the sonar soldier knew that it was just a self-explosion of the torpedo after losing the target, and the enemy who really wanted to attack was not damaged!
The sonar soldier swallowed: "The target has reappeared! Pounce on our fleet at a faster speed!"
Wu Qingtie blushed: "Order the whole ship to turn around, air defense formation, target, enemy, full speed forward!"
The officers and soldiers on the bridge of the flagship thought that they had misheard -- the enemy was diving in the water, but the commander actually ordered to set up an anti-aircraft formation?
However, the harsh training and strict military discipline still allowed the soldiers to quickly carry out the orders of the black greens, the ironclad fleet spewed black smoke and circled around the sea, the soldiers in charge of air defense jumped into the battle positions in the heavy rain, and not only that, but even the damage control team members were armed with guns and ready for close combat at any time.
The ironclad fleet and the big octopus and the sea snake charged at each other, getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer, and suddenly, Wu Qing roared: "Depth charge!"
Boom, boom, strings of rocket-boosted depth charges flew into the rain curtain and plunged headlong into the sea, boom, boom, and the waves like small mountains rushed out high under the surface of the sea under tremendous pressure. Depth charges explode on the bottom of the sea, and when the liquid is pressurized, it does not compress like air, so the shock wave generated by the explosion of the depth charge is transmitted to the large octopus and sea snake through the seawater, even if it does not directly hit them.
However, the big octopus and the sea snake twist their bodies in a strange rhythm in the sea water, and the pressure transmitted by the sea water is easily unloaded, you know, the big octopus and the sea snake can survive at a depth of 10,000 meters, and they can withstand great pressure, so the attack of depth charges may be able to destroy the submarine made of titanium alloy, but it cannot cause fatal damage to the big octopus and the sea snake.
"Beware of the collision!" the sonar soldier screamed, clutching the gauntlets around him, including U Qing, and the other crew members also firmly grasped the guardrails, handles and other objects around them, preparing for the collision with the big octopus and the sea snake, however, quietly, only the rain was rumbling down, and the expected collision did not come.
Wu Qing shouted: "Sonar immediately report the enemy's position!"
The sonar soldier clutched his headphones and stammered, "Enemy, enemy - enemy is just below us, just below!"
With a bang, a thick wrist and foot with a suction cup poked out from under the sea, tightly wrapped around the flagship where Wu Qing was, the strength of the wrist and foot was so strong that even the guardrail around the ship was smashed and deformed, an open-air anti-aircraft machine gun position was swept by the wrist and foot, and several unlucky soldiers were swept out of the position like small stones by a huge force, screaming and flying into the sea, before they could fall into the sea, several more wrists and feet poked out, rolled them up, and led them into the sea. Apparently eaten by a large octopus as a snack.
Wu Qing stood in the bridge leaningly, because the huge ironclad ship was actually tilted by the big octopus by more than ten degrees, if it was a wooden sailboat, it would have been torn to pieces a long time ago, no wonder the crew of the slave country talked about the big octopus and changed color, such a monster was an invincible sea overlord in the era of sailing ships!
It's just that this big octopus is now facing an ironclad ship, and I, Wuqing, won't admit defeat so easily!
Wu Qing shouted: "Anti-aircraft fire, fire!"
The eight ironclad ships were centered on the flagship where Wu Qing was located, in a circular defensive formation, and at this time, the soldiers finally understood what the anti-aircraft fire was for, not to deal with the enemy in the air, but for close combat.
Shi Xiaofeng waved his hand: "Target, flagship, shoot!"
The anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns on the ironclad ship have aimed at the big octopus wrapped around the flagship and opened fire, these large-caliber weapons can even penetrate thin steel plates, although the body of the big octopus is harder than rubber, and cold weapons such as swords cannot hurt the body, but in the face of anti-aircraft shells and machine gun bullets with thick arms, they are also hard to resist.
Several wrists and feet of the big octopus wrapped around the flagship were shot one after another, and blue-green juice flowed out from the bullet holes, and the juice flowed onto the steel bulletproof deck, which actually corroded the deck into bursts of green smoke and corroded out big holes! The juice of this big octopus was extremely corrosive!
Bang, a large octopus's wrist and foot was hit by several large-caliber machine gun shots, and was broken alive, the broken wrist and foot seemed to have spirituality, jumping around on the deck, splashing blue-green juice on several warriors, the warriors covered the smoke-emitting bodies and screamed, but after a few screams, they fell to the ground, and the corrosion exposed white bones.
The brachiopod finally jumped onto the barrel of a main gun, and the juice secreted corroded the entire barrel in two, and a cannon capable of flattening a hill was wasted.
Wu Qing stood in the bridge and saw the fierce battle outside clearly, although he scrapped a main gun, he was extremely excited, because this proves that the big octopus can also be injured - the big octopus has a total of eight brachiopods, and one was broken in the first battle, and if it goes down again, it will break the remaining brachiopods like chopping melons and vegetables, and then this big octopus will become a king-size octopus ball.
Wu Qing was about to order the ships to continue the attack, suddenly, there was a hill-like spray in the sea, the body of the big octopus floated out of the sea, it let out a silent scream, several wrists and feet flicked, and swept down several anti-aircraft gun positions that were shooting at it fiercely, the long barrels of the twin anti-aircraft guns broke like toothpicks, and the soldiers who were sticking to the gun positions rolled out like gourds, and the wrists and feet of the big octopus were coiled one by one, and the soldiers were wrapped up alive and thrown into the big open mouth.
A soldier held an anti-aircraft machine gun, gritted his teeth, and shot at the bare head of the big octopus, but the big octopus stretched his wrists and feet, blocked the bullet, swept the long wrists and feet, and swept the anti-aircraft machine gun into the sea, the soldier rolled smartly, dodged the wrists and feet, pulled out the short gun on his waist, and hit the big octopus, but after firing two shots, the other wrist and foot stretched out from behind, and suddenly strangled the waist of the warrior, and the warrior screamed miserably, and spit out a large mouthful of blood in the sound of broken ribs.
The big octopus threw the dying warrior into its mouth, and suddenly, boom, a violent explosion exploded in the big octopus's mouth, but it was the last moment of the warrior's death that pulled towards the grenade hanging from his waist.
Streams of green juice poured out of the big octopus's mouth, and the injured big octopus attacked the fighters in the air defense position like a frenzy, and it was also extremely smart, and after suffering a loss, it strangled the soldiers to death one by one before throwing it into its mouth.
Seeing that dozens of fighters were swallowed by the big octopus and the air defense battle position on the flagship was swept away, Wu Qing was about to order more soldiers on standby to rush forward and fight with the big octopus in close combat, when suddenly a soldier exclaimed: "Brachiopod! The brachiopod of the big octopus has grown again!"
Wu Qing threw himself next to the broken window - the thick bulletproof glass was corroded by the sap splashed by the big octopus, he looked at the window, and saw that the brachiophores and feet of the big octopus that the soldiers had broken at the risk of sacrifice, and the fracture where the juice was originally flowing, twisted and grew a small brachiopod, and as a few more warriors were swallowed into the mouth of the big octopus, the newly grown brachiopods grew bigger and bigger, longer and thicker.
Wuqing was originally a great witch on the prairie, how do you not know, this is a unique ability of demons - rebirth, as long as there is enough blood food to replenish spiritual power, it will be endless to regrow the destroyed body, such rebirth, of course, can not be compared with the rebirth of the cultivator's severed head, the practitioner can regrow even if the head is cut off, but the demon head is cut off, but it is certain to die, and only part of the limbs can be reborn.
However, even if this big octopus can only regenerate part of its wrists and feet, it has already made Wu Qing almost desperate, unless he can directly attack the head of the big octopus, otherwise, this guy is simply endless.
However, the big octopus is also very cunning and knows where its weaknesses lie, so its eight wrists and feet fly in the air, protecting its head very tightly, and most of the time, its head is hidden under the surface of the sea, just waving its eight wrists and feet to poke out of the sea to attack.
This large octopus has its own large and small eyes on its wrists and feet, and its search attack is extremely flexible, and it can even reach into the cabin and catch the warriors hiding inside.
