Chapter 268 Signal Guidance
The lead-like shotgun shells were released from the guns. Chang Heng looked indifferently at the skeletons that attacked the fleet. They were not bound by flesh and blood, and accordingly lost the strength and support that flesh and blood could provide.
Ignoring the terrifying skeleton and the might of the attack, it was just a frame with a relatively complete wing membrane to provide it with flight.
The wind they relied on would complete the last step for the soldiers.
The bone bats entered the attack wind and tore the stretched wing membrane to pieces.
The next moment when the Undead Lord issued an attack order, the suddenly increased wind pressure tore their already fragile wing membranes. They wailed silently and struggled in vain in the clouds.
Obviously they did not lose control, and the undead creatures were still in the connection.
But they could not stop the gray-white souls from falling under the pull of gravity.
During the fall, they were disconnected from the Undead Lord because of the long distance.
The moment they lost the wing membrane for their own flight, they were already one of the future dead.
The thousand-meter fall was just the last projection of life.
Until they passed through the cotton-like clouds and landed hard on the ground like hail and shattered.
Completely extinguished in the soul connection.
A few lucky ones whose wing membranes were not seriously damaged were able to throw out the spherical projectiles hanging under them, or a dull sword-wielding skeleton.
The bombs that mainly killed with energy shock waves and fragments could not penetrate the thick bulkheads of the carrier, but only left a conspicuous burn mark on the outermost replaceable steel sheath in vain.
The sword-wielding skeletons were quite troublesome. Although they could not cause any damage to the hull, they would stay on the top where it was difficult to clean up, and occasionally hit the steel sheath with their swords. Either wait for friendly forces using shotguns to clean them up for them, or crawl out from the front and rear cabins leading to the fuselage to clean them up themselves.
The same was true for the bone bats that had thrown the projectiles. No matter how sharp their bone claws were, they could not penetrate the outer steel shield. Even if they penetrated the steel shield, there was a layer of wooden support structure waiting for it to exert its strength.
All newly built airships used the high-quality wood provided by Li Yan, while the older airships still used ordinary wood and steel.
Chang Heng wiped the gun in his hand and pushed a brand new fixed bullet into the chamber with iron fiber.
The other side chased their people all the way, so he couldn't let them leave so easily.
This was the first battle of the airship unit.
Now that we are here...
"All ships quickly report the damage... New instructions for the No. 1 and No. 2 artillery cruisers, fire again after the target enters a distance of 400 meters."
This wave of offensive has been resolved by them, and the remaining two or three kittens cannot pose a threat to the carrier ship. Next, it is their turn to act.
Four hundred meters is not only the best attack distance of the 75 gun, but also the distance at which the 30 gun can fire. He is 90% sure that after the other side enters the death distance of 400 meters, he will use the firepower of each ship to wipe them out completely-they are not the kind of ships whose firepower becomes weaker as the distance gets closer.
The problem now is how to make them willingly approach the death distance of 400 meters.
Silence the gunboats, and let the other side think that they have suffered heavy casualties. The bone bat dive can work, and continue to approach.
Chang Heng raised his rifle and checked.
This fixed-load bullet is different from other fixed-load bullets. There is an orange-yellow horizontal mark on the paper shell of the fixed-load bullet.
"All guns of Ship No. 1 follow my tracer bullets to fire, and Ship No. 2 will give priority to attacking the nearest enemy units. The order has been issued."
Armor-piercing incendiary bombs, they have not used this special ammunition created to counter armor for a long time.
Although it is called armor-piercing, its armor-piercing ability is quite questionable, but the burning effect is quite good.
This special ammunition will cause local ablation after hitting the target, and only a small number of hits can effectively destroy the joints and linkage structures of the machine.
The world of steam and steel can mass-produce with their excellent mechanical technology, but the territory cannot do it.
But the system still retains the relevant ammunition manufacturing technology for him, and this technology was slightly improved by the dean, so that it can burn more rapidly and for a longer time.
The lethality is not high, and if the distance is far, it will even burn out before it arrives, but it can leave a conspicuous ballistic trajectory in the air to guide other troops to concentrate their attacks.
The dean has explained to him that the special crystal ore incendiary bombs grown in different metal environments release different colors, and the color of the trajectory they leave in the air after burning is different. And he only cares about when he can get the improved version of the Eagle Eye Technique, and the observation distance of the adventurers' Eagle Eye Technique is still too limited.
In short, he got a special tracer flare that can be used to guide the troops to fire at the same time.
If the guidance effect of the 14mm long gun in his hand is not obvious, he will immediately run to get a 30 gun loaded with this marking ammunition to fire at the target. He can't just give the entire fleet a concentrated fire order to kill the opponent's command flagship, so an effective alternative is very important.
It is unlikely that one person can sink a battleship, but he only needs to point out which ship is the enemy's command ship to his own artillery cruiser.
Six fast-firing 75 guns will help him do the rest.
For example, tear the target to pieces.
For example, now.
Distance, 400 meters.
Distance, 390 meters.
"Sure enough, in a pile of bones, there are two figures wearing black clothes."
Chang Heng locked the target with the mechanical sight, put his shoulder against the rifle, and placed it on the porthole.
"Remember to bring some camouflage next time."
The sudden burst of orange ballistics drew a track in the air that everyone could see.
