Chapter 4127: cloud mud

The lightest ones that can be counted as rail guns are more than 30 tons, and can only be installed on ships of the sixth generation or more. This is why the fifth-generation warships have been eliminated one after another.

As for the top-of-the-line hundreds of tons of railguns on both sides, there is currently no way for them to streamline them, so they are trying to redesign them.

However, from the current point of view, it is impossible for the two sides to reach a result in a short period of time. By the way, Rome has not followed up the idea of ​​naval guns, because so far, Rome has not recognized the navy of the Han army and Guishuang. How far has it evolved.

It is estimated that after the arrival of the observation group, it will not be long before Rome will push the naval guns like a mad dog. After all, the navy has developed to this level, and the army in the offshore sea is almost like playing. After the kinetic energy weapons are opened, even if there is cloud Qi For protection, a single shot can produce a large pit with a radius of more than ten meters, which almost far exceeds the Army's understanding of conventional strikes.

The problem is that this level of attack is the same as Ping A for the navy. Zhou Yu fired a salvo from the whole ship, and the battery that can be counted starts with this level of power.

Therefore, after the observation group in Rome watched the new version of the naval battle between the Han Dynasty and Kuishan, it is estimated that they will also follow it. After all, these days, the empire will be killed by others if it does not take the initiative to roll it up.

Rome is a little bit conscious of danger in times of peace. Seeing the terrifying caliber of the Han army and Guishuang, I am afraid that it will also develop fortresses. After all, both the Han Dynasty and the Guishuang can be said to be continentalism, but the Mediterranean bath in Rome.

Seeing the terrorist attack method that the Han army and Kushan Pinga can directly blow up a camp, the Roman Empire should not worry about the two sides killing mad and entering the Mediterranean Sea, and it would be strange to use the Mediterranean Sea as a battlefield. As for allies, nonsense, the empire The alliance book is maintained by strength, not by paper.

Following Monkhambu's order, the energy-injecting arrows were soon filled into the fort, and the fort was operated by the elite backbone, and when the power was accumulated to the maximum, it was launched in the direction of the Han army. .

The spear shot out this time turned into a light spear the moment it got out of orbit, and slammed into the frigate in the rear with a ball of light.

"Boom!" After a series of roars, Kushuang's ballista strike technology was very problematic, and the hit rate basically did not reach 20%, so 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 investigation technique, quickly entered into the secret magic mirror, and then transferred to the accompanying personnel to quickly obtain the power of Kushuang’s new artillery shell with experience and calculation, without waiting for the calculation result to arrive. At Gan Ning, a huge roar appeared behind.

"The No. 4 frigate was hit, the outer side was damaged, and the overall deflection was 16. There is a danger of sinking." The hundred Fu under Huang Gai announced the news to Gan Ning loudly.

"Use the main gun to suppress and order the crew of the No. 4 frigate to transfer." Gan Ning ordered with a calm expression, the worse the situation, the calmer he is.

"The main gun has been filled, but the hit rate cannot be guaranteed." Cheng Pu personally flew over to inform Gan Ning, "What's more important is that after the main gun is used, Meng Kangbu may continue to chase us, and we don't have the ability to cooperate with Meng Kang now. Cloth's ability to conduct decisive battles."

Although Cheng Pu's temper is not very good, but after so many naval battles, he can be considered to recognize the reality. This year, Celian and Zhou Yu are t0, Mengkangbu t0.5, Gan Ning and Ceci Sagli t1, The remaining young Sisi family members can be ranked first, and they can only be regarded as deputy.

Therefore, when facing Meng Khambu with Nigaye, Bebuto, and Aruno, Cheng Pu also chose to run away rationally. There was no way, without Zhou Yu's fighting power, when encountering such a large group, everyone had to kneel. , At present, half of the reason for being able to withstand it is that Meng Kangbu did not try his best, but just held the idea of ​​​​the Han army he met with a hammer.

But if the Electromagnetic-Heaven-Earth-Essence Hybrid Railgun is exposed, Monkhambu will definitely choose to chase and fight.

Because the large ships equipped with this level of main guns in the Han Dynasty are definitely flagships, although Zhou Yu has made all the seven generations of ships out of scale, not every seventh-generation ship is equipped with this level of main guns. cannon.

Although the situation in the Han Dynasty is not as scarce as that of Guishuang, and there are only six super main guns, Zhou Yu is not rich enough to install such a one on every seventh-generation ship. Ship's super gun.

Therefore, as soon as this thing is sent, Meng Kangbu on the opposite side is basically sure that there is a flagship of a Han army fleet in this fleet of occasional encounters, and it is certain that there must be big fish in it, then Meng Kangbu will definitely not. Will fight again with the attitude of hammering to death.

"Let Sun He go up, General Cheng, cover Sun He with your legion talent, and let him maintain his peak performance, the main flagship overload mode, and burst." Sun Ce glanced at Cheng Pu, and directly issued orders on behalf of Gan Ning, although the naval battle Sun Ce couldn't, but Sun Ce's intuition told him that even if you didn't use the flagship's main gun, Meng Kangbu would never let go of this fleet.

"Yes!" Cheng Pu received Sun Ce's order and didn't say a single extra sentence, and rushed directly to the deck. After Sun He received the news, he also rushed to the position of the main gun.

"Boom!" There was another loud noise. The two light spears hit the frigate at the rear of the fleet at the same time, and the frigate, which had already been devastated, couldn't stand it this time, and was hit at the waterline. With the influx of seawater, the frigate obviously tilted and began to sink.

"Activate the observation technology in the middle cabin and show me what's going on with this sinking frigate!" After seeing one of the frigates sink, Mengkhambu ordered decisively.

You have to know about the energy-injecting arrows, but Meng Kangbu is going to use it against Zhou Yu's salvo weapon. Although it is not as good as the main gun, it can also be used against the Han army after Zhou Yu fully opens the group defense. Flagship high-kill weapons that cause some damage.

As a result, a small boat actually sank after several shots of energy-injecting arrows. It would be strange if Mengkhambu had doubts. As for salvaging the sunken boat when the boat was finished, to be honest, the water depth of the Indian Ocean, Guishuang really did a little bit. not.

Soon the observation secret technique in the middle cabin relied on the high level of his mind to pass the details of what they saw to Meng Kangbu, and when he saw the broken gap of the sunken ship, Meng Kangbu fell into silence directly, even in the Previously, Guishuang's generals and commanders had seen that this boat blocked a lot of shelling, but due to reality, most commanders and commanders did not dare to think about the steel structure.

However, when they actually saw the materials used in the frigate that was about to sink, all the Kushuang generals who were qualified to see this thing understood why this thing could block such a large-scale shelling.

Ordinary whole ship salvo, the opposite boat can be directly carried, the reason is very simple - this thing is all steel structure.

Just like the previous dreadnought encountering a dreadnought, the generation gap was directly opened. Kushuang can 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, Nigaye, Bebuto, fell into silence at this moment.

There is no special naval secret technique they think, and there is no hard wood that is particularly cherished, and the resistance is not because the cloud defense structure of the Han Dynasty has made great progress, but more simple and direct steel.

Meng Kangbu was silent for a long time, and even Aruno on the side stagnated in command. Fortunately, the group defense has been arranged. Relying on the special defense structure, the Han army's not too high hit rate did not cause any damage to Guishuang. too much loss.

"Chase." After being silent for a long time, Meng Kangbu finally reacted.

Aruno nodded, but neither of them were as confident at this moment as they were before.

Warming can greatly strengthen the material. After warmed, ordinary wooden weapons can even catch up with and surpass the top steel that has just been released without warming.

In this way, the meaning of steel seems to have completely lost its value. However, steel can also be warmed. The so-called warm curing does not change the essence of the material, it is just a kind of strengthening. The original strength of the material is high enough. down, the intensity will be higher.

Wooden spears can't pierce plate armor, and wooden spears of the same level after warm-up cannot pierce plate armor after warm-up. Similarly, wooden ships can't hit steel ships, so the fleet of sail battleships with defensive structures after warm-up can't hit them either. A dreadnought with a defensive structure attached after warming up.

After all, the navy is a vehicle-eating force. When there is a clear gap in vehicles, the commander cannot go against the general trend. What's more, everyone on the world knows that Zhou Yu is the real meaning. invincible.

The Kushuang Navy can still fight now, not because there are still the backbone of the Sisi family, the veterans left by Celian, as well as enough technical tactics and special cloud-qi secret techniques, but the frigates that the Han army appeared on the ocean this time, Completely let Monkham burlap.

At this moment, the current front-line naval commanders such as Moncambu, Aruno, and Bebuto were like seeing Zhou Yu defeat Celian once again to complete the alternation of the old and new kings.

Also at this moment, Aruno, Bebuto, Nigaye, the front-line generals, really understood why Mengkhambu called Zhou Yu the devil of the new era, not the hero who defeated the great devil, because every generation of devil The **** that brings is quite different.

Celian is a cloud-qi structure, a cloud-qi curing road, a group defensive style, and a technique and tactics.

Zhou Yu is a giant ship cannon, a super large-scale enemy search, and a dreadnought, a tactical innovation.

"He may really be the Demon King." Aruno said silently.

Since Aruno followed Celian, he has witnessed the rise of an invincible commander. Even if he lost before, Aruno believes that it is not Zhou Yuqiang, but Celian who is old. He has seen Celian who traversed the Indian Ocean when he was young. , Aruno is very clear that Zhou Yu has not surpassed.

However, when he saw that the frigate of the Han army was sunk by Guishuang, Aruno finally realized that Zhou Yu and his fleet were absolutely qualified to be the pinnacle of Celian.

"Even if it's the Demon King, we can't go back." Meng Kangbu sighed and said, "After I go back, I implore Your Majesty to try to advance."

However, while talking, Moncambe was silent, because of steel production and shipbuilding technology.

Both of these are gaps that cannot be bridged. Not to mention the production of steel, Kushuang brought back the Brahman caste division of labor. After arming the army, the production of steel can barely squeeze out a few thousand tons.

The problem lies in the shipbuilding technology. Chen Xi admits that the shipbuilding technology of Guishuang is definitely the best in the world. Even if the Han Dynasty is desperately developing in the aspect of ordinary wooden large ships, even if it catches up and surpasses the Kushuang, it will be difficult to pull away. distance.

After all, the pinnacle of a wooden battleship is actually a sail battleship. Historically, the displacement of this thing can reach nearly 10,000 tons. After reaching this level, it will become extremely difficult to manufacture it if it is larger.

Structures, frames, material strength, counterweights, and more can all become deadly.

Just as the efficiency of a steam engine reaches a certain level, it is difficult to improve, and after a piston engine reaches a certain level, it is difficult to break through a certain efficiency point. After a period of rapid development, many things are already close to the upper limit. Hard to change.

This is the case with wooden sail battleships. Even if the Han army is desperately developing, the upper limit cannot be opened by an order of magnitude with Kushuang, and the opponent can still rely on weaker technology to fight, and there is no obvious generation difference.

It would be different if it could be replaced with a steel battleship. Even the most dishonest dreadnought was a dreadnought, and it could also crush the battleships before the dreadnought.

More importantly, there is no opponent on this road, and the Han Dynasty is the absolute starter.

Even if Guishuang finds it now, it is impossible to catch up. Just a qualified steel plate that resists rust and deformation is enough for Guishuang to break down rationally.

Chen Xi smashed countless resources and failed countless times, and finally perfected the theory of the seventh generation of ships through repeated verification.

When Lu Jun made the model, he thought that he could zoom in on the model year-on-year, but in fact, whether a certain structure is riveted, cast, brazed, spot welded, forged, or any other way, it depends. enough to kill.

And this is just a very small part of the myriad of problems.

To be honest, the keel that Gan Ning saw at the Donglai Shipyard for the first time had already collapsed, and the entire seventh-generation ship was a process of trial and error, to put it bluntly.

Lu Jun has a stubborn side, and he really wants to make such a thing, so after hundreds of failures, when Chen Xi went to Donglai Shipyard for the last time, that is, the year before, the seventh generation. The ship really has the hope of being built.

No longer progress forever on paper, but real hope.
