The lightest ones that can be considered rail gun level are over thirty tons and can only be installed on warships of the sixth generation or above. This is why the fifth generation warships have been gradually eliminated.
As for the top-notch hundreds-ton rail guns on both sides, neither side is currently able to streamline them, so they are both looking for ways to redesign them.
However, it seems that it is impossible for the two sides to produce results in a short time. By the way, Rome has not yet followed up on the idea of naval guns, because as of now, Rome has not recognized the Han army and the Kushan navy.
How far has it evolved?
It is estimated that after the observation team arrives, it won't be long before Rome will crazily push forward its naval guns like a mad dog. After all, the navy has developed to this extent, and attacking the offshore army is almost the same as playing. After the kinetic energy weapons are launched, even if there is cloud
For protection, one shot can create a large crater with a radius of more than ten meters, which is far beyond the Army's understanding of conventional strikes.
The problem is that an attack of this level is the same as level A for the navy. Zhou Yu launches a whole-ship salvo, and all the forts that can be counted start with this level of power.
Therefore, after the Roman observation group watches the new version of the naval battle between the Han Dynasty and Kushan, they will probably follow suit. After all, these days, if the empire does not take the initiative to roll up, it will be killed by others.
Rome is a little more prepared for danger in times of peace. Seeing the terrifying caliber of the Han army and the Kushan army, they may be desperate to develop forts. After all, the Han Dynasty and the Kushan army can be said to be continental, but Rome's Mediterranean bathhouse...
After seeing the terrifying attack method of the Han army and Kushan Ping A that can directly blow up a camp, the Roman Empire would have been worried that these two parties would go crazy and invade the Mediterranean, and treat the Mediterranean as a battlefield. As for allies, nonsense, the Empire
The alliance is maintained by strength, not by paper.
Following Meng Combo's order, energy-infused arrows were quickly filled into the fort. The elite backbone operated the fort, and when the power was maximized, they were fired in the direction of the Han army.
The spear shot out this time turned into a spear of light the moment it derailed, and struck the frigate behind with a ball of flame.
"Boom!" There was a continuous roar. Guishang's ballistae strike technology was very problematic, and the hit rate was basically less than 20%. Therefore, many light spears fell directly into the sea, blasting dozens of
Meter-high water column...

This terrifying power was learned by the Han army's secret reconnaissance techniques, and was quickly entered into the secret mirror, and then passed on to the accompanying personnel. Using experience and calculations, they quickly figured out the power of Kushan's new artillery shells without waiting for the calculation results to arrive.
At Gan Ning's place, a huge roar appeared from behind.
"The No. 4 frigate was hit, the outside was damaged, and the overall deflection was 16°. There is a danger of sinking." Baifu under Huang Gai loudly informed Gan Ning of the news.
"Use the main guns to suppress and order the crew of the No. 4 frigate to relocate." Gan Ning ordered with a calm expression. The worse the situation gets, the calmer he becomes.
"The main gun has been filled, but the hit rate cannot be guaranteed." Cheng Pu flew over personally to inform Gan Ning, "What's more important is that after using the main gun, Mengkangbu may continue to chase us, and we don't have the ability to fight with Mengkang now.
The ability to conduct decisive battles."
Although Cheng Pu has a bad temper, after fighting so many naval battles, he has finally recognized the reality. These days, Selian and Zhou Yu are T0, Mengkangbu is T0.5, Gan Ning and Ceci Sagli are T1,
The remaining few young people from the Sisi family can be ranked high, but they can only be regarded as deputies.
Therefore, when facing Meng Kambu with Nikaya, Bebuto, and Aruno, Cheng Pu also rationally chose to run away. There was no other way. Without Zhou Yu's fighting power, everyone would have to kneel down when encountering such a large group.
, half of the reason why it can withstand the current situation is that Mengkangbu did not try his best, and just had the idea of hammering the Han troops he encountered.
But if the electromagnetic-Heaven and Earth Essence hybrid rail gun is exposed, Mengcomb will definitely choose to chase it.
Because the big ships equipped with main guns of this level in the Han Dynasty are definitely flagships. Although Zhou Yu has a lot of money and has built up the scale of the seventh-generation ships, not every seventh-generation ship is equipped with main guns of this level.
Cannon.
Although the situation in the Han Dynasty is not as tight as that of Kushan, with only six super main guns, Zhou Yu is not rich enough to install one on every seventh-generation ship. It is enough to blast a fully-defended seventh-generation ship with several rounds.
The ship's super gun.
Therefore, once this thing was fired, Mengkangbu on the opposite side was basically sure that the fleet he encountered contained the flagship of a certain fleet of the Han army, and he was also sure that there must be a big fish in it. Mengkangbu would definitely not
I will fight with the attitude of beating him to death again.
"Let Sun He go up. General Cheng, use your legion talents to cover Sun He and let him maintain his peak performance. Main flagship overload mode, continuous fire." Sun Ce glanced at Cheng Pu and directly issued the order on Gan Ning's behalf. Although the naval battle
Sun Ce couldn't do it, but Sun Ce's intuition told him that even if you don't use the main gun of the flagship, Meng Combo will never let go of this fleet.
"Yes!" Cheng Pu received Sun Ce's order without saying a word, and rushed directly to the deck. After Sun He received the news, he also rushed directly to the position of the main gun.
"Boom!" There was another loud noise, and the two luminous spears hit the frigate at the rear of the fleet at the same time. The already battered frigate could not withstand this time, and was hit by a huge blow at the waterline.
With the influx of water, the frigate clearly tilted and began to sink.
"Activate the observation technology in the middle cabin and show me what's happening with this frigate that's about to sink!" After seeing one frigate sinking, Mengcomb ordered decisively.
You have to know about things like energy-infused arrows, but the strike weapon that Meng Kangbu prepared to use against Zhou Yu's whole ship salvo, although not as good as the main gun, can still be used against the Han army after Zhou Yu fully activated the group defense style.
A high-destructive weapon that causes some damage to the flagship.
As a result, a mere small boat actually took several shots of energy-injected arrows before it sank. It would be strange if Mengkangbu didn't have doubts. As for salvaging the sunken ship after the attack, to be honest, with the depth of the water in the Indian Ocean, Kushan really has a lot to do.
Less than.
Soon, the secret observation skills in the middle cabin relied on high-level telepathy to pass on the details of what they saw to Meng Comb. And when he saw the broken gap in the sunken ship, Meng Comb fell into silence, even in the
Previously, the generals and commanders in Kushan saw that this small boat blocked a lot of bombardments, but due to reality, most of the generals and commanders did not dare to think about steel structures.
However, when they actually saw the materials used in this frigate that was about to sink, all the Kushan generals who were qualified to see this thing understood why this thing could withstand such a large-scale bombardment.
Ordinarily, the whole ship can fire a salvo, and the small boat on the opposite side can directly withstand it. The reason is very simple. This thing is made of all steel structure.
Just like the former dreadnought encountered the dreadnought, the generation gap was directly opened. Kushan was able to destroy this frigate. It can only be said that the displacement of this frigate is too small. If it is replaced with the same level of displacement, I am afraid that all means will be used.
joke.
The captains who were qualified to see this scene, such as Aruno, Nikaya, and Benedictine Bhutto, all fell silent at this moment.
There was no special naval secret technique as they thought, and there was no particularly precious hard wood. The reason for the resistance was not because the Han Dynasty's cloud defense structure had made any great progress, but because there were enough simpler and more direct steel materials.
Mengkangbu was silent for a long time, and even Aruno on the side stopped commanding. Fortunately, the group defense style has been arranged. With the special defense structure, the Han army's not too high hit rate did not cause Kushan damage.
Too big a loss.
"Chase." After a long silence, Mengcombu finally reacted.
Aruno nodded, but at this moment neither party was as confident as before.
Temperature curing can greatly strengthen materials. After being tempered, ordinary wooden weapons can even catch up with and surpass the top-notch steel that has just been released from the furnace in terms of strength.
From this point of view, the meaning of steel seems to have completely lost its value. However, steel can also be temperature cured. The so-called temperature curing does not change the nature of the material, it is just a kind of strengthening. The original strength of the material is high, and the effect of temperature curing is
down, the intensity will be higher.
Wooden guns cannot pierce plate armor, nor can wooden guns of the same level that have been tempered and tempered can pierce plate armor that has been tempered. Similarly, a wooden ship cannot hit a steel ship, so a fleet of sail battleships that have been tempered with a defense structure cannot hit them.
A Dreadnought with a defense structure attached after being tempered.
After all, the navy is a vehicle-dependent branch. When there is a clear gap in vehicles, the commander-in-chief cannot go against the general trend. What's more, speaking of conscience, everyone in the world knows that Zhou Yu is the real
of invincibility.
The Kushan Navy can still fight now, not because it still has the backbone of the Sisi family, the veterans left by Selian, and enough technical tactics and special cloud secrets. But the frigates of the Han army that appeared on the ocean this time,
Meng Kangbu was completely stunned.
At this moment, top naval commanders such as Mengkombu, Aruno, and Bebuto were as if they had once again seen Zhou Yu defeat Selian and complete the replacement of the old and new kings.
Also at this moment, the front-line generals Aruno, Bhutto, and Nikaya really understood why Mengkangbu called Zhou Yu the devil of the new era, rather than the brave man who defeated the great devil, because every generation of devil
The dominance that brings is completely different.
Selian is the cloud structure, the cloud solidification path, the group defense style, and the technical tactics.
Zhou Yu's giant ships and cannons, super large-scale enemy hunting, and dreadnoughts were tactical innovations.
"He might really be the Demon King." Aruno said with silence.
Since Aruno followed Selian, he has witnessed the rise of an invincible commander. Even if he lost before, Aruno believed that it was not Zhou Yuqiang, but Selian who was old and had seen Selian when he was young and sailed across the Indian Ocean.
, Arunuo knew very well that Zhou Yu had not surpassed it.
However, when he saw the Han army's frigate being sunk by Kushan, Aruno finally realized that Zhou Yu and his fleet were definitely qualified to attack Selian's peak.
"Even if we are the Demon King, we can't turn back." Mengcombu breathed out and said, "After we go back, I beg your Majesty to try to push forward..."
However, Meng Combo was silent as he talked, because of steel production and shipbuilding technology.
Both of these are unbridgeable gaps. Not to mention steel production, Kushan has restored the caste division of labor among Brahmins. After arming the army, steel production can still barely squeeze out a few thousand tons.
The problem lies in shipbuilding technology. Chen Xi admitted that Kushan's shipbuilding technology was absolutely unparalleled in the world. Even if the Han Dynasty desperately tried to develop ordinary wooden large ships, even if it caught up with and surpassed Kushan, it would be difficult to pull away.
distance.
After all, the pinnacle of wooden battleships is actually the sailing battleship. Historically, the displacement of this thing can reach nearly 10,000 tons. After reaching this level, it will become extremely difficult to build a larger one with every increase.
The structure, frame, material strength, counterweights, etc. all become extremely lethal.
Just like when the efficiency of a steam engine reaches a certain level, it is difficult to improve it, and when a piston engine reaches a certain level, it is difficult to break through a certain efficiency point. After a period of rapid development, many gadgets are already very close to the upper limit.
No matter how hard it is to make a qualitative change.
This is the case with wooden sail battleships. Even if the Han army develops desperately, the upper limit cannot be on the same level as Kushan. The opponent can still fight with inferior technology, and there is no obvious generation difference.
But it's different if you switch to a steel battleship. Even the most incompetent dreadnought is still a dreadnought, and it can crush the battleships before the dreadnought.
What's more important is that there are no opponents on this road, and the Han Dynasty is the absolute first choice.
Even if Kushan discovers it now, it is impossible to catch up. Just a qualified steel plate that resists corrosion and deformation is enough to collapse Kushan's sanity.
Chen Xi spent countless resources and failed countless times, and finally perfected the theory of the seventh-generation ship through repeated verification bit by bit.
When Lu Jun made the model at the beginning, he thought that he could scale it up according to the model. But in fact, whether a certain structure is riveted, cast, brazed, spot welded, forged welded, or other methods, it doesn't matter.
It's enough to kill you.
And this is just a very small point among countless problems.
To be honest, the keel that Gan Ning saw when he first visited Donglai Shipyard had already collapsed. The entire seventh-generation ship was simply a process of trial and error.
Lu Jun has a stubborn side, and he really wanted to build such a thing, so after hundreds of failures, when Chen Xi went to Donglai Shipyard for the last time, that was the year before last, the seventh generation
There is real hope that the ship will be built.
It is no longer progress that stays on paper forever, but real hope.
