Water warfare is similar to land warfare, or in other words, to cavalry warfare.
Cavalry charge requires speed, warships confrontation also requires speed. Interruption requires speed, and impact requires speed. For large ships like building ships, impact is their most commonly used tactic. They only use the thick ones based on their size.
The metal angle between the boat plate and the bow, directly crushing the small boat warship and impacting enemies of the same size, is a tactic that every navy general will give priority to.
Otherwise, the tower ship would not become a decisive force. Each tower ship is a moving battle fortress, a small city that can actively hit people.
To have a higher speed, you must have sufficient acceleration time and acceleration distance. Otherwise, no matter how good the ship is, it will be difficult for the full speed. Facing faster opponents, you will definitely suffer losses.
Zhuge Zhi was very happy to see that the Shu Han Army's warships had only accelerated for a long time. Since the opponent's warships were huge in size, the acceleration would inevitably be slow and the speed would be limited, so they would naturally suffer losses when hitting.
From this we can see that the other party's general is a newcomer and does not understand water war at all. Otherwise, he would never have made such a mistake. Zhuge looked straight at the battle flag on the warship, and he still couldn't see clearly the words on it.
What, but it can be roughly seen as a duplicate surname.
I wonder where Wei Ba found such a fool, who traveled thousands of miles to deliver warships to us?
When Zhuge Zhi was proud, the vanguards of both sides had approached about two hundred steps. Several vanguards rushed out of the queue and rushed towards the oncoming Shu Han army warship. Their speed was very fast.
It is not that I can understand the power of the impact, but to shorten the time to rush through the arrow formation. The number of warriors on Meng rushed forward is very small, and the crossbows do not have the advantage when shooting. They have to rush into the enemy group in the shortest time and jump
Only by helping melee combat can you play your greatest advantage.
Behind them, the Wu soldiers on the medium-sized warships pulled their bows and arrows and prepared to shoot. Like land battles, about a hundred steps is the best distance for shooting, because the speed of the warship is not as fast as the running speed of a person. It is even more impossible to
Compared with the running war horses, there is relatively more time to shoot, so the navy's crossbow shooting is more important and is the main means of long-range attack.
But something that surprised Wu Jun soon happened. The two sides had just entered two hundred steps away. Some of the Wu Jun soldiers had just taken arrows, while others had just taken off their shields and had not yet fully entered the combat state. The giant warship on the opposite side suddenly jumped on
A black shadow rose, and in a blink of an eye, the black shadow flew to the Wu army soldiers with a sharp roar.
The sound of whizzing sounds was endless. The overwhelming dense arrows shot through the body of the Wu army soldiers. The unprotected archers were severely injured. In a blink of an eye, more than a dozen crossbowmen fell into a pool of blood, even the shield hands
Three or four people fell down because of insufficient protection.
Zhuge was stunned. His tower ship was more than 300 steps away from the other party, but he was also attacked. Several giant arrows like spears cut through the sky. After more than 300 steps, it seemed to have passed through the clouds.
Teared the sky, and suddenly appeared in front of him. Arrows like spearhead pierced through the deck, shot a large hole, and destroyed it under the deck. Several slightly smaller arrows were nailed to the deck, and the bulkheads were trembling.
, buzzing.
Zhuge Zhi was inexplicably shocked. He looked at the tower ship shooting wildly in the distance, and then looked at the giant arrow less than five steps away from him. A chill rose from behind and rushed straight to the back of his head along his spine, making him feel
A bone-broken chill.
Start shooting three hundred steps away, and the attack is like a storm, without giving the opponent any time to breathe. The arrows are dense like clouds and the sky is dark. What a dense array of arrows? Then there is no tower ship,
Looking at the arrows that kept shooting out, Zhuge felt that this giant dragon was clearly squirting rain, but now it was not ordinary rain, but arrow rain.
Zhuge Zhi was in a very embarrassing situation. He and the Wu soldiers on the ship did not expect that the other party would start attacking at such a long distance. They were caught off guard and had no chance to counterattack. They were stunned. Survived
The soldiers shouted, some raised their shields, some looked for places to hide, and some pulled the bows and arrows in their hands to fight back. They waited for the long arrows to leave their hands before they realized that their arrows could not shoot at all.
, it is only possible to accidentally hurt the comrades in front of you.
The pressure the Wu army soldiers who rushed in the front was far more direct and oppressive than Zhuge Zhi and others on the tower ship. The Wu army soldiers had not yet come back from the shock of being attacked by the rain of arrows. The giant ship
Having rushed to them, the huge figure came over like a mountain. From a distance, I could only feel that the tower ship was larger than an ordinary ship, but it was not shocking. Now that I was only a few feet away, I really felt that the huge
The pressure brought by the size of the body.
The Mengchong who rushed in the front passed by the giant ship. They did not dare to collide with such warships head-on. They were like rats facing a giant elephant, and they had no power to fight back at all. It was just this giant ship.
The surge of water makes their rush bump and cannot maintain balance. If they hit it, there is only one possibility and there will be no accident.
Relying on the flexibility of the hull, relying on the skillful ability of the oars and the tacit cooperation of many years of cooperation, several Mengchong avoided the head-on collision with the giant ship and rushed towards the medium-sized warship behind.
The medium-sized warship that was facing the giant ship was not so lucky. The frightened Wu soldiers watched the giant ship roll over unstoppable, but they didn't have time to adjust the direction. The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and they rushed.
After the rain of arrows, they entered the shooting dead corner, but they felt no joy. They looked at the giant ship as majestic as mountains and pressed down.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, the average medium-sized warship hit the giant ship firmly, the bow sank down, and the stern raised. Amid the screams of the Wu army soldiers, the warship quickly sank into the water.
.
The bow of the giant ship raised, then sank down again, as if he had shaken his body, his spirit became more energetic, cutting through the waves, and continued to run forward, rushing towards the Zhuge Ship, who was turning urgently a hundred steps away.
Zhuge Zhi's face turned blue. He saw a warship being pressed into the bottom of the water with his own eyes, but he could not stop the enemy from moving forward. Now, the enemy is less than a hundred steps away from him, and he can clearly feel the power of this giant ship.
He didn't think that the two sides would collide, and he had any chance of winning. His hull was larger than that of an ordinary medium-sized warship, but his speed was also far less than that of a medium-sized warship. In front of this monster, he
There is no possibility of any escape.
"Switch the rudder, turn the rudder!" Zhuge roared with a pale face.
More than a dozen helmsman gritted his teeth, his muscles bulged, and he tried hard to pull the rudder that was seven or eight feet long, trying to turn the turret that was moving forward at full speed. Although the turret was not fast, it was too large and he was eager to do so.
It is a very difficult task to turn around and avoid the giant ship that is hitting, not to mention that there is a dense rain of arrows above your head. In a moment, three or four people were caught in arrows and fell down.
More Wu soldiers rushed over with their shields. Some used shields to cover their companions, while others pulled the giant rudder together, turning the giant rudder to the limit. Amid a shocking moan, the tower ship was struggling.
Start turning and slide to the front right.
In front of the shadow of the giant ship, Zhuge Zhi saw the duplicate surname on the other party's battle flag. He suddenly realized that the other party's surname was Zhuge.
It turned out that the same surname was a perish. Zhuge Zhi couldn't help but shudder. However, he immediately threw this idea away. Although his tower ship turned in time, he had not completely escaped from danger. The giant ship's left abdomen was still facing
He pressed over.
In Zhuge Zhi's terrified eyes, the two sides collided sideways, and the boat shook violently, and the hull tilted to the right. Zhuge Zhi was ready, spread his legs, and his combat boots were tightly slamming the deck, almost twisting.
He had to change shape, and his left hand grabbed the railing tightly to maintain his body balance. His personal guards were also experienced and each tried to avoid the end of falling. Most of the soldiers of the Wu army had many years of experience, although
The tilt of the tower was as high as thirty degrees, but it did not cause much riot.
With a harsh friction, both sides passed by. The left side of the building ship was empty and fell downwards, slapped on the water surface, causing a splash of water. The building ship made a squeaking sound and shook violently.
After a few strokes, it slowly stabilized.
Zhuge Zhi was soaked, not only with splashes, but also with cold sweat. If he hadn't ordered the rudder to turn in time, he believed that he would have been knocked over even if he wouldn't be pressed into the bottom of the water like the medium-sized warship. Despite this
He had just walked around the edge of life and death. If the collision was more intense, his tower ship would not avoid the bad luck of the bottom of the ship facing the sky.
He looked at the giant ship that was leaving, and was very scared.
On the giant ship, Zhuge Dan was covered in spring breeze and was not worried at all. Zhou Yin also breathed a sigh of relief. He caught up with the navy halfway, and was far less familiar with the performance of the giant ship like Zhuge Dan. He was a little smaller building.
The ship collided head-on, and the giant ship had an advantage, which was needless to say, but he was not sure how much advantage it could be. Now the giant ship easily sank a Wu army warship, and almost overwhelmed Zhuge Zhi on the side
The ship was shaking slightly, but it did not have much impact. The strength of both sides was already very clear. Even if they collided head-on, the giant ship would probably not have much impact except for slowing down.
"Zhongying, what should we do next?" Zhuge Dan turned his head, glanced at the shaking boat behind him, and smiled: "Would you like to turn around and clean up Zhuge Zhi, or continue to move forward?"
"Continue to move forward and take Wei Wen." Zhou Yin sighed softly: "Zhuge Zhi's courage has been broken, so let it be cleaned up for the governor Xiahou. Only by keeping Wei Wen can you eat the three thousand water masters in one bite
, establish his authority in the first battle."
Zhuge Dan held his jaw slightly, with one hand behind his back, and stroked his short beard: "Just E Zhongying. Let Taichu pick up a bargain, and we will go and catch Wei Wen directly."
