After opening the new gun breech, the loader of the Datang Group navy soldier in the turret calmly pushed a shell into the gun bore, and then pushed the propellant in as well.
After closing the breech, he raised his arm. A few seconds later, the cannon suddenly sat back. After retreating a distance of more than two feet, it quickly returned to its original position.
The not too thick armored steel plate of the turret blocked the noise of artillery firing. The soldiers in the turret only heard a muffled sound, and then continued to load.
Anyway, they couldn't see the results of their battle, but they could hear the noncommissioned officer responsible for aiming beside them loudly reporting the results of the shelling.
For these sailors, naval battles are basically no more than playing games. They only need to repeat their work, and victory will come soon.
Anyway, they could still more or less feel the tension of the battlefield. The coal-burning workers on duty inside the ship, as well as soldiers such as chartmen and cooks, didn't even feel that the battle had broken out.
"Boom!" The front main gun of the Bunas-class battleship immediately behind the Wolf 1 battleship sprayed out two balls of flame.
The two shells hit the target almost at the same time. The hit sailboat broke directly. The front half was still being pulled forward by the sail, while the rear half had overturned and flooded.
The Tarun Kingdom's squadron, which was originally preparing to outflank the Tang fleet, finally understood the gap between the two warships, and several warships began to turn around in panic.
As a result, before they could turn around, they were hit by incoming shells and soon returned to the embrace of the God of the Sea.
The remaining warships tried to intimidate Datang's warships by firing cannons, but soon they were waiting for the second round of attacks from Wolf-class warships.
The dense artillery shells flew directly into the array of the Talon Kingdom fleet, and then there was a real flurry of fire.
It was indeed a moment of turmoil - the mast of a warship in Talon's fleet fell down in the explosion, and the huge mast crashed directly into the sea water. The helmsman flag floated on the sea, looking so embarrassed.
.
The Talon warships, which were originally lined up in a row, ready to show off their densely packed cannons to their opponents, finally realized how childish and ridiculous they were.
Before they could fire a shot, they were hit by the shells and turned into burning and exploding pits.
With the sound of cannons one after another, General Talon, who was in charge of commanding the squadron, suddenly realized a serious problem.
He, who was in the middle, or the battleship he was on... seemed to be getting closer and closer to the enemy's battleship.
Almost all of the warships sailing in front of him had been destroyed or completely sunk in front of him.
Now, it's finally his turn.
He wanted to turn around and run away, but before he could move, he suddenly remembered that he was at sea now, and he must not be able to escape the enemy's artillery fire.
In fact, it was not much different from what he guessed - just when he was hesitating whether to jump into the sea and escape, a cannonball struck, completely destroying his idea of escape. Because, he was already dead...
…
The Tang Group's naval fleet, equipped with tube-retracting cannons and explosive shells, was simply carrying out an uninteresting dimensionality reduction attack when facing the Tarun Kingdom's sailing ships and muzzle-loading cannons.
"What is that! What is that?" On the other side of the battlefield, General Wallen, who was listening to the roar of cannons and watching the explosions and flames, pulled the adjutant's collar and asked loudly.
He hasn't figured out what happened yet. After all, he can't see the battlefield on the other side clearly, so he can only guess based on thin air.
It's a pity that no matter how bold his guess was, he couldn't guess that more than half of the 21 warships he had sent out were already gone at this moment.
"Press over! Press over! Share the pressure on the fleet on the other side! Don't let them escape!" Valen shouted through gritted teeth, fearing that his squadron would suffer losses.
In his opinion, the opponent must be desperate and ready to abandon the port and break out. Therefore, he made the decision to attack the entire battle line in the hope of annihilating the opponent's fleet before the opponent breaks through.
"Come up! Get rid of all the enemy ships on the starboard side! Then speed up! Prepare to attack the enemy warships on the other side!" Bernard, who did not relax at all, also issued a new order at this moment.
He saw that the enemy fleet on his flank was unable to fight anymore and had almost withdrawn from the battle, so he decided to pursue the victory and eat this squadron first.
Anyway, Datang Group's warships have a speed advantage, and he can use this advantage to do whatever he wants, simply do whatever he wants.
With advanced weapons, it is natural to easily crush the opponent. As the distance continues to get closer, Datang Group's 75mm caliber side cannon joins the battle.
These artillery made up for the gap in the number of artillery pieces on the Datang Group's battleships, and completely stunned the sailors of the Talon Kingdom on the opposite side as soon as they joined the battle.
The soldiers of the Talon Kingdom had never seen such ferocious firepower. They didn't even have time to scream before they were stunned by the explosive shells.
After they finally figured out the situation, they were surprised to find that they had become drowned people floating on the sea.
The battle was still going on, with four steel battleships lined up in a row, isolating the battlefield and defeating the Talon fleet on the flanks.
Waren, the general of the Tarun Kingdom, is still planning to encircle and annihilate the Datang Group fleet even now.
However, the cruelty of the war this time far exceeded his expectations. He didn't even know that at this moment, the fleet on the other side of him, a total of 21 warships, had either been sunk or damaged, and almost the entire fleet was wiped out.
The naval warships of the Datang Group lined up in a battle line fully explained what it means to kill people as soon as they pass by. When they passed by the opponent's fleet, they sank all the enemy ships.
"Turn! Left rudder! Bite the tail of the enemy fleet! Sink them all!" After gaining the advantage, Bernard continued to issue the order.
After the two sides fought for 20 minutes, the Datang Group's fleet turned again. This time, the enemy's figure-of-eight pincer formation had been completely defeated, leaving only the one in the middle.
At this time, due to the previous maneuvers and turns, the fleet of the Talon Kingdom formed a roughly "
