Chapter 676 Burning 5: Changes in the Wind and Cloud
On the vast sea, a decisive battle broke out that has amazed the latecomers countless times.
Lu Xuanyu led the 21 warships of the Weihai Fleet to challenge the complete Hailong Fleet of the Xiaoyao faction. The ratio of the two sides is as high as 21:2350!
And the difference in total tonnage between the two sides is also a hundred times.
However, under such circumstances, Lu Xuanyu resolutely launched a sprint! Take the initiative to attack!
The 21 warships of the Weihai Fleet... No, the remaining 20 warships lined up and rushed to the south. The distance between them and the Hailong Fleet of the Free and Unfettered Fleet has been opened to 11 kilometers.
The Sea Dragon Fleet of the Xiaoyao faction was also uncomfortable, and they suffered a loss from the beginning of the battle.
However, since this morning, the Weihai Fleet has been in a decisive battle to the death mentality. Although it has suffered heavy losses, it has also achieved brilliant results-almost killing Jinghai when the overall situation is at a disadvantage. fleet.
Without the support of the Hailong Fleet, the Jinghai Fleet would become history.
Victory and confidence boosted the morale of the admirals of the Weihai Fleet. The continuous battles did not make them feel tired, but quickly matured and became real naval fighters. Both mentality and attack accuracy have reached a peak.
On the contrary, after the Sea Dragon Fleet attacked Mingjiao's Zhuzhou Port, they were a little complacent. They were so excited along the way that they lost their due tension.
Nervousness is of course bad, but proper tension can keep a fighter in an ideal peak state. If there is no tension at all, except for the real veterans, recruits will suffer.
In fact, the veteran's so-called "not nervous" is only superficial. Inwardly, he is always on guard.
But in any case, in this state, compared with the Weihai Fleet, which has just been baptized in the flames of war, the Sea Dragon Fleet is a bit worse.
About three minutes into the battle between the two sides, the Weihai Fleet lost another warship; and the Hailong Fleet was sunk with 10 warships!
The four warships of the Weihai Fleet focused their firepower on one target and killed ten warships within three minutes.
Among them are steel battleships and black iron battleships.
Yan Zhen, the commander of the Sea Dragon Fleet, almost popped out of his eyes.
In contrast to the attack of the Sea Dragon Fleet, there were a lot of shells. Not only the naval guns in the front were attacking, but the naval guns in the rear were also straddling to support. The shells in the sky really fell like raindrops, but less than two thousandths of the shells could actually hit the Weihai Fleet.
A few attacks were completely resisted by the defensive barrier.
There were also some shells with the ability to break the prohibition that smashed into the barrier and fell on the superstructure of the battleship, but it did not have much impact on the battleship as a whole. For this, thanks to the technology and quality of Dayang Group.
Also, the sailors of the Weihai Fleet, even if the shells exploded behind them, they can still focus on their own affairs without looking back. Reload, wait for orders, launch, clean up, reload...
On the contrary, once the shells of the Sea Dragon Fleet exploded on the battleship, all the sailors on the battleship panicked and even forgot what they should do!
The battle is still going on, and the salvo speed of the Weihai Fleet has been increased to 30 seconds. There was no attack of any kind other than a salvo.
Because only a salvo can affect the enemy!
At this moment, the Weihai Fleet, with only 20 warships left, is like a silent veteran, even if there are bullets raining on his head, or even a bomb explodes above his head, he does not waver in the slightest.
But every attack of this veteran can cause fatal damage to the enemy!
It was another five minutes, and the distance between the fleets had exceeded 14 kilometers. The 20 warships of the Weihai Fleet were miraculously preserved, and their power systems were basically intact. Although one-third of the superstructure of the battleship was attacked, the sides of individual battleships were twisted and the defensive barriers were damaged.
But in these five minutes, the Sea Dragon fleet lost 15 warships again!
Yan Zhen was stunned by the disparity in the battle damage.
Seeing that the distance between the two fleets exceeded 14 kilometers, and the accuracy of naval gun attacks dropped sharply, Yan Zhen could only order angrily to continue the saturation attack!
He is not reconciled!
It's too embarrassing, Zhuzhou port was blown up just now, and Mingjiao was hit with a hammer; when I turned around, I was hit with a stick by a dilapidated Weihai fleet with only 20 broken ships left!
Only at this time, the status of the two fleets changed again.
Now facing the Weihai Fleet, it is no longer the main force of the Hailong Fleet, but the... warships in the rear!
The corner of Lu Xuanyu's mouth showed a trace of coldness, "The warship turned slightly to the east and approached the opponent's warship. Hit me hard!"
The 20 warships crossed a small arc, with a turning angle of less than 30°, approaching the tail of the Sea Dragon Fleet.
The dark cannon barrel shone with a ferocious luster. The confident and high-morale naval officers and soldiers chanted and pushed heavy shells into the barrel. This time, instead of firing salvos, each ship attacked on its own.
It's just some warships!
Then, Yan Zhen's eyes turned red.
These skinned warships are better with dark iron keels; some are simply made of black steel keels. The outside is basically wooden boards covered with black iron.
The defensive enchantment of the battleship lacks enough black iron or steel as a foundation to support it, and its defensive ability is relatively poor.
These warships could not withstand the attack of shells at all.
Even as long as the shell explodes within a range of ten meters, the shock wave is enough to distort the ship's side.
Once the cannonball hits the warship head-on, even an ordinary cannonball is enough to break through the barrier of the warship by relying on its kinetic energy advantage.
Although the distance between the two sides is now 14 kilometers, the Weihai fleet is in a miraculous peak state at this time. At a distance of 14 kilometers, the hit rate of the shells is as high as more than 10%!
Considering that the close-range explosion of the shells can cause serious damage to the warship, the overall hit rate is even as high as 70%!
In just one attack, more than a dozen warships were blown up. For a moment, the rear of the Sea Dragon Fleet panicked.
Finally, Song Zi reacted quickly. He led the masters of transformation to attack the Weihai Fleet from a long distance, especially the attack on the three ships of the Weihai Fleet with broken barriers. The Weihai Fleet had to save itself and turned away again.
So far, the first head-to-head confrontation between the Hailong Fleet and the Weihai Fleet, and also the first head-to-head sea confrontation between the strategic alliance and the anti-aggression alliance, has come to an end.
Temporarily unable to say who wins and who loses, I can only say that everyone is miserable.
The Weihai Fleet is considered a breeze. But when they left the port, there were 72 steel warships, and there were more than 2,000 warships. Today, only 20 warships are still fighting, and more than half of them are 'disfigured'; only 8 warships still maintain a good appearance.
As for the flagship's superstructure, it was severely distorted by three shells.
Fortunately, Dayang Group's steel warship technology is really powerful. Faced with such an attack, the structure, power, attack system, and defense system of the battleship were not seriously affected.
That's right, it's a bit ugly.
As for the more than 2,000 warships of the Xuanzhen Sect, only 300 left the battlefield, and it is not known how many were able to return to the port in the end.
Although the war has not yet been counted, Lu Xuanyu probably knows: This time, at least 80,000 to 90,000 people died in the sea! The direct economic loss is no less than 4.5 billion high-grade spirit stones.
At least one-third of Xuanzhen Sect's accumulation in the past few years has been lost.
However, the results obtained are also brilliant. The Jinghai Fleet of the Kingdom of Shaoze was basically crippled, even losing its confidence. And the Sea Dragon Fleet of the Xiaoyao faction must have been scared of being beaten.
Hmph, 21 warships challenged your more than 2,300 warships and warships, and at the cost of the silence of one warship, they killed a total of 20 warships and more than a dozen warships of the opponent.
The Weihai fleet did not slow down, but continued to sail south. It looked like he was fleeing for his life.
Lu Xuanyu grabbed the twisted railing and looked at the vast sea. Right now, there was only one problem left—he didn’t know where the Mingjiao’s Sun and Moon Fleet was now, so he could only let the fleet sail as far as possible to the southeast—that direction, It should be facing Mingjiao's Zhuzhou Port.
The reason why I say 'should' is because in this vast sea, Lu Xuanyu doesn't know where he is now.
During the war, who can take care of so much.
However, according to his feeling, and calculating the time and the speed of the Sea Dragon fleet, Lu Xuanyu felt that he should be in the Emerald Sea between the Fertile Land Continent and the Tall Earth Continent, two-fifths of the northerly wind.
Then by calculating the altitude of the sun, etc., the position can be roughly determined.
But the specific location, there is no way.
In the rear, Yan Zhen, the vice-commander of the Sea Dragon Fleet, had a bitter expression on his face, and listened to Matsuko with an ugly face, saying: "This fleet must be wiped out. Having experienced the baptism of war, they have become real elites, and they must not be allowed to return. Seeing that the opponent's battleship is now broken, destroy them!"
Ting Songzi nodded coldly: "Catch up! No matter what method is used, this fleet cannot be let go! Their battleship must be sunk, and their navy officers must be buried in the sea!"
Listening to Song Zi, although angry at the disparity in the results of the battle, she also understands that such an elite fleet that has been baptized by the flames of war cannot allow them to return safely no matter what. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles.
The Sea Dragon Fleet, together with the newly incorporated Jinghai Fleet of the Land of Shaoze, immediately sent most of the steel warships in pursuit. Yan Zhen personally led.
In order to increase the speed, Huashenqi personally assisted the battleship to turn and accelerate quickly and completely.
The remaining small semi-steel warships and warships slowed down, but continued to go north, preparing to blow up the coastline of Xuanzhen Sect (the coastline of the former Canglan Kingdom).
The sea ahead was exceptionally quiet, with only the gentle undulation of the waves. Under the sun, golden lights flashed on the sea surface. It was beautiful and peaceful, as if it had not been affected by the war at all.
The remaining 20 warships of the Weihai Fleet galloped towards a direction that Lu Xuanyu himself was not sure about.
"General, the rear is chasing!" A soldier came to report.
Lu Xuanyu turned his head to look, and smiled faintly, "The distance is at least 30 kilometers, so don't worry. They won't be able to catch up. Let Huashenqi help speed up."
With the help of the God Transformation Stage, the speed of the fleets of both sides exceeded 150 kilometers. After galloping like this for about half an hour, Lu Xuanyu suddenly laughed.
On the front screen, black dots appeared. Soon, a black dot appeared.
Mingjiao's Sun Moon Fleet!
Lu Xuanyu immediately sent a telegram, and after reconfirming that it was correct, Lu Xuan immediately sent six words via telegram: The hero sees the same.
Yes, the heroes see the same thing. In this vast sea, we completed a perfect plan to lure the enemy completely by 'guessing' when we couldn't locate it!
The black dots in front quickly disappeared, this is the activation of the formation of invisibility or phantom formation. The effect of the temporarily activated formation is not good, but it is enough to make it difficult for the enemy to find it twenty or thirty kilometers away, especially in an environment like the sea.
As for the enemy ships that were chasing after 30 kilometers behind, they failed to detect the changes ahead. A gap of 30 kilometers is too far.
After more than ten minutes of frantic pursuit, Yan Zhen suddenly realized that the situation ahead was not right. Everyone is a cultivator, and their cultivation base is not low. As they approached, strange things in the distance were discovered.
"There is a formation! There is an ambush!" Yan Zhen was startled, and made a decisive decision: "Turn around and join the rear fleet. Report the situation to the rear."
Yan Zhen can roughly determine the situation of the ambush ahead just by looking at the range of the abnormality ahead, probably no less than two hundred warships.
"Why is it a battleship, not a warship?" In the telegram, Song Zi asked a question.
"It can't be a warship that can appear here at this time. I suspect that this is very likely to be the fleet from the Mingjiao port! At the beginning, the fleet hid in the barrier and did not come out, and did not suffer many attacks !"
"Permit to turn back." Ting Songzi finally let go.
At this time, the battleship had already started to turn.
…………
Ahead, Lu Xuanyu knew he was exposed the moment the opponent turned around.
But at this time, isn't it a bit late? The ambush ahead is less than 15 kilometers away.
The Sun Moon Fleet also simply withdrew the phantom array immediately, and the fleet advanced at full speed.
80 steel battleships and 170 black iron battleships suddenly appeared on the sea, revealing the most ferocious lineup.
Lu Xuanyu led 20 steel battleships and began to turn around, and prepared to approach several 30,000-ton and Arctic Ocean-class warships of the Sun Moon Fleet, ready to receive repairs and supplies.
The God Transformation Stages started to get busy again, they used spells to push the battleships, robbing time.
In war, speed is life; and time is victory.
Every minute you get faster, you can control one more point of victory. Especially in the current situation, if one fleet can be killed before the two enemy teams converge, the rest of the fleet will not be able to escape.
Now the opponent is turning around. The warship turning around is not a ground car. It can accelerate with one foot on the brake and then turn around.
Battleships are bulky, and the sea does not have strong friction like land. Warships want to turn around, especially in combat situations, and must maintain speed, so they can only take a roundabout way in a large arc.
Yan Zhen's face was calm, but worry flashed deep in his eyes.
At this moment, it is impossible to turn around directly. Can only turn to the east.
Yan Zhen roughly calculated that at the current speed, the turning diameter is about two kilometers, even if it is only a 90° turn, it will take about a minute.
During this period, the distance to the opposite side will be close to 9 kilometers!
However, it happened to be able to seize a 'D' position!
Maybe, it's not too bad?
