The time has quietly reached 11 noon. Zhang Hao is standing on the white clouds. The white clouds are condensed by Liu Dingshan. There are also Liu Xinyu, Zhou Shuhai, Sword Heroes, Hua Baixiang and others on Baiyun. Many elites from Qixia Country are here.
In fact, not only the elites of Qixia Kingdom, but also the elites of other countries have come. The white clouds in the sky are full of masters. Even countries within the Dongfang Xianyin Sect have representatives.
Strictly speaking, this battle is not an all-out battle. The Xuanzhen Sect and the Xiaoyao Sect are very cautious. They almost unanimously limit the war to the sea and battleships, and have no idea of ????expanding the war-at least not for the time being.
And for the time being, Zhang Hao only saw the Nascent Soul stage on the battleship, not the Divine Transformation stage.
In fact, everyone knows very well that if both sides lose, the Dongfang Xianyin Sect will not show mercy.
"Don't think that the Immortal Yin Sect is a good person just because the name contains "Yin"; anything that can become a holy place is created! To put it more directly, they all crawled out of the mountain of corpses and sea of ??blood.
But at this point, the battle has not started yet, which makes many people anxious - it¡¯s just too slow! Shouldn't a cultivator's battle be done by rolling up his sleeves?
¡°Is this true?¡± Liu Dingshan was a little anxious and couldn¡¯t help but ask Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao looked at the anxious eyes of everyone around him and shook his head slightly: "Senior, this is my first time in such a naval battle; even the two sides who are about to fight, I am afraid it is also their first time. Therefore, how this war will proceed, I also Not sure.
Actually, when it comes to combat experience, the ones with the most experience in ocean warship combat right now should be the Canglan Kingdom and the Langya Kingdom. The two countries have been fighting since years ago, and this is unmatched by the fleets of the Dayang Group and the Qixia Kingdom. "
Liu Dingshan looked at Zhang Hao, suspicion flashed in his eyes.
I heard that your Ocean Group¡¯s fleet often conducts exercises. If you don¡¯t know the situation of naval battles, I¡¯m afraid others don¡¯t know much about it!
Zhang Hao turned his head and looked at the sea below. In fact, naval battles Zhang Hao really doesn't know. He had Dugu Junjie and Zhao Yuhang do a lot of exercises before, but Zhang Hao didn't care much about the specific exercises.
?Leave professional things to professionals! What Zhang Hao wants to do is not to understand the war, but to guide the development of Dayang Group.
A person's ability, energy, etc. are all limited. Even cultivators in the transformation stage cannot cover everything. However, Zhang Hao naturally would not explain such a thing. It¡¯s too troublesome, just say you don¡¯t know, how easy it is!
In fact, it is impossible to say that Zhang Hao didn¡¯t understand it at all. The guiding ideology of Dugu Junjie and others at the beginning was pointed out by Zhang Hao; in the later development, Dugu Junjie and others also discussed with Zhang Hao more often. But there is no need to let others know these things.
The wretched development is the king!
In the sky, Liu Dingshan drove the white clouds forward slowly; on the sea in the distance, about twenty kilometers away, was the fleet of the Xuanzhen Sect. Such a long distance is also a default safe distance.
For masters in the transformation stage, twenty kilometers is already very close. However, due to line of sight problems, the distance is blurred even further, so it can only be at a distance of twenty kilometers.
But just when Liu Dingshan started to get anxious, things finally turned around in the East - the Xiaoyao faction's fleet appeared!
Zhang Hao quietly covered his forehead. Did the people from Xiaoyao Sect have water in their heads? The large fleet directly attacks the Xuanzhen Sect's fleet, have you really considered it carefully? There's a big gap between you, okay?
But wait! Zhang Hao suddenly realized that even if the Xiaoyao faction did not have a naval commander, the Langya Kingdom and the Southern Tang Kingdom would not be so ignorant. They rushed over like this, they must have a plan!
In the sky, all the masters watching the battle held their breath, an unprecedented super battle was about to begin!
On the Xuanzhen Sect¡¯s side, 19 steel warships are arranged in a wild goose formation, which is a big arrow layout. The distance between each of the 19 warships is about one kilometer, and the 19 warships are directly lined up about 20 kilometers apart.
About 10 kilometers behind the battleship, more than 50 skinned warships formed a formation and gathered together. Of course, after all, they are 10,000-ton warships. The so-called gathering together is more than two to three hundred meters away from each other. Fifty warships formed a trapped formation, with a diameter of five kilometers.
Every battleship is a formation base, and black iron skin has become the best carrier of the formation. The warship floated by, and low waves rolled up on the sea.
These warships use steam turbines provided by Dayang Group. They have no sails and are very fast.
In contrast, the Xiaoyao sect¡¯s??Nearly hit the captain's room.
But Lu Xuanyu remained calm and composed. The flagship's displacement of 25,000 tons was also reflected at this time. After being hit by a cannonball, the battleship barely shook. Unlike the other side, which is almost cocked.
The distance between the two sides was getting closer; and taking advantage of the numerical advantage of the steel battleships, Lu Xuanyu concentrated fire once.
At one time, four 460mm high-grade artillery shells hit the Dragon Tooth steel battleship on the Xiaoyao faction's side. This 10,000-ton steel battleship is still riveted - the welding technology that the Xiaoyao faction later researched cannot weld steel.
One of the four shells actually penetrated the chimney, entered the cabin directly, and exploded inside the cabin. The crazy explosion loosened the rivets, the spliced ??steel plates and keel at the bottom of the battleship were loose, the formation structure was destroyed, the keel was slightly twisted, some ribs were broken, and a large amount of seawater poured in.
In less than a minute, the seawater flooded the boiler, and the sailors around the boiler were injured and dead, unable to prevent the disaster from happening.
"The Dragon Fang lost its power and could only rely on inertia sliding; and the battleship itself began to sink.
The Nascent Soul stage is crazy busy, trying to save the battleship. However, a battleship that has lost power is a living target. In particular, the battleship's defensive barrier also failed due to structural damage to the battleship.
Three minutes later, three ordinary 460mm artillery shells hit the target again. One of the shells actually penetrated into the belly of the Dragon Tooth. The crazy explosion directly broke the Dragon Fang. Amidst the sound of steel twisting, the battleship sank rapidly.
Since the war, and even since the construction of steel battleships, this was the first steel battleship sunk by artillery shells; it was also the second steel battleship sunk.
On the Hailong, Ma Jianliang was stunned. This one was really unplanned! We only have two steel battleships in total! If one ship is sunk, it is 50% of the battle damage.
However, the war continues, and the distance between the two sides is less than 8 kilometers.
On the Xuanzhen Cult side, Lu Xuanyu calmly ordered: "Left the naval guns and fire! Prepare the crossbows!"
The effective range of the ballista is short, less than five kilometers; but the hit rate of the ballista is very high. But having said that, as the distance between the two sides approached, the hit rate of both sides' naval guns began to increase significantly.
At this time, it was not just the cannons on the battleships that were firing, but also the cannons on the skinned warships.
Unlike steel battleships, skinned warships have fragile foundations and cannot carry ultra-long-range artillery with large recoil. They can only install artillery with relatively small recoil - small recoil does not mean small caliber. Just less propellant.
With a large number of skinned warships opening fire, the sea was completely lively!
The smoke of gunpowder fills the air, and the water column forms a forest.
Suddenly, the Xuanzhen Sect¡¯s Endeavor No. 2 was set on fire. A total of six 460mm high-end artillery shells from the Xiaoyao faction hit the target. And this is equivalent to the explosive power of 60 ordinary artillery shells.
The explosion tore through the deck, penetrated the armor, and the superstructure of the battleship was blown away. However, the disaster broke out next he died!
This time, an ammunition depot was detonated, igniting the propellant, and then a larger explosion occurred. On this 20,000-ton warship, more than 7,000 tons of artillery shells, explosives, etc., most of them explode.
At that moment, the world seemed to tremble. The battleship burst into pieces and was completely torn into pieces. The flames were dazzling, and the sea water instantly sunk a hundred meters, forming a huge crater with a diameter of more than 600 meters. A wave of waves hundreds of meters high suddenly spread, and the surrounding battleships Bumping in the huge waves, all attacks failed.
A battleship of more than 20,000 tons just disappeared. Of the more than 2,500 naval officers on the battleship, only a few Nascent Soul stagers escaped for their lives, but they were miserable.
The sea water began to flow backwards, and the entire sea was in chaos, emitting bursts of thunder.
The Xuanzhen Sect was a little dumbfounded. But the Xiaoyao Sect burst out into shocking cheers! Ma Jianliang even shouted to keep up the good work.
But on the Xuanzhen Cult side, Lu Xuanyu quickly regained his composure. When the mirage dragons and shark dragons were encircled and suppressed, the scene was even crazier than now.
Lu Xuanyu calmly commanded, and the two sides quickly approached.
The warships of the Xiaoyao faction have been deployed, and their plan has finally been revealed: using the warships as the base of the formation, 108 of their more than 300 warships (now less than 200) formed a sealing the sky and locking the earth. Great formation!
At this time, the distance between the two sides was less than five kilometers.
At this moment, the sky and the sea all held their breath!
