Great Tang Southern Emperor

The three shells flew quickly across tens of kilometers of sea area with a dull whimpering sound, accurately landed in front of the fleet of unknown origin, and then exploded - once again demonstrating its precise accuracy.

However, the enemy's fleet was only flustered for a moment, but quickly continued to move forward without any hesitation—at this point, even those who report hope should understand that the other party is definitely not good at coming .

"Captain, they don't mean to stop, but they are even faster." The messenger immediately reported the situation.

"Okay, it seems that the one who came is really our enemy, since that's the case..." Sima Cuo's eyes flashed a stern look, and he ordered loudly: "Then you are welcome, order the No. [-] and No. [-] forts, don't save ammunition, Shoot me all the shells."

"Lieutenant, the deputy commander has an order, don't save ammunition, and leave all the enemies outside the port of Yegang." Under the waving of the messenger, the order was quickly conveyed to the two 'Greedy Wolf' forts through flags .

In Fort No. [-], the commander-in-chief of the fort, Captain Ye Shan, laughed when he saw this: "Great, we have a chance to eat meat. Brothers, don't save me ammunition. All five cannons are fired...Everyone is free to fire. Hit me hard."

"Hahaha, it's finally our turn to eat meat. Don't stop me this time. I'm going to kill you."

"That's great, I'm nesting here every day, and I'm so free."

"This time it's finally our turn to play, and I will definitely not let any of these ships go."

"..."

After receiving the order to fire, there was cheers in Fort No. [-]—no wonder they were like this. You must know that Yegang is an important place in Luzon, and the imperial court stationed heavy troops here for defense. Even if there is an enemy attack, there are also navy and army Take a shot, and the enemy is often wiped out before the turn of the fort.

What's more, since the establishment of Coconut Port, no enemy has ever invaded, and it is impossible for the ordinary indigenous rebellion to allow them to invade within the range of the cannons, and they will be killed by the army guarding outside.

The only rebellion that could be considered large-scale was the Zhonglicheng rebellion last time. As a result, the battlefield was still in the city, and the cannons on the fort were all heavy cannons. They disappeared halfway down the street with one cannon. Who would dare to let them fire?So from the beginning to the end of the war, the Fort didn't get an order to take action. They didn't even count as soy sauce.

Therefore, the coastal defense fort in Yegang is really idle. It can be said that it is a pain in the ass. From its establishment a few years ago until a while ago, there was no gain at all, and it was only during the monthly training time that it was able to fire two cannons to enjoy the fun. , but that’s all there is to it—if it weren’t for the rotation system, they would have rebelled long ago.

Now that they finally got the chance to make a move, why aren't they excited?

"Shut up, stop yelling." Looking at his subordinates who were yelling and wanting to kill, Ye Shan couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Let me tell you, it's rare for us to make a move in Yegang, and now the whole Yegang is watching As for us, you all have to be sure, if anyone embarrasses me, don't blame me for being rude."

"Don't worry, Captain." The gunner of the No. [-] battery patted his chest and laughed loudly: "Our usual training is not for nothing. We can say that every part of the 'Greedy Wolf' cannon I am familiar with it, let alone let me fire the cannon, even if you dismantle the cannon for me, I can reinstall it for you with my eyes closed."

"All right, all right, stop bragging." Ye Shan kicked him: "If you have the time, you'd better shoot me twice quickly, why are there so many nonsense?"

"Yes." The artillery commander was not angry when he was kicked, patted his buttocks, turned around and ordered: "Listen to me, everyone, this time we must make a reputation as belonging to our Fortress Army, don't embarrass me, whoever If it misses, give me a week to clean the toilet.”

"Yes." The artillerymen responded with a loud bang and started to get busy.

The performance of the 'Greedy Wolf' cannon is indeed top-notch, and even its operability is very simple. The wolf's cannon is already in its state - this is already a very high speed. After all, this is a cannon with a dead weight of more than seven tons, and it is loaded purely by hand. Such a fast speed has proved the "greedy wolf" The excellent performance of the cannon and the well-trained artillerymen.Of course, if the steam engine becomes popular in the future, the loading speed may increase rapidly, but there are still at least ten years before the steam engine becomes popular, and it is obviously impossible to achieve it in a short time.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Woooooo~"

The artillery shell weighing [-] kilograms was thrown out, and there was a violent whimpering sound from the friction between the warhead and the air, as if it was sending the enemy to the end.

The shells of the 'Greedy Wolf' cannon are very fast, with an initial velocity even reaching three times the speed of sound. Even though the speed of the air resistance drops after being discharged, the slowest speed has reached [-] times the speed of sound.

Therefore, the distance of [-] kilometers is almost less than two minutes, and the shell has already landed on the enemy's head-in the eyes of the watchman, it can be clearly seen that the shell of the No. The sky, and then accurately hit the warship in the middle of the enemy, with the same accuracy as usual.

However, it is a pity that I don't know if the shell was not properly maintained, or the fuze failed after a long time, but no matter what the reason is, the No. [-] shell did not explode, but a strange scene appeared...

"Boom."

"Crack!"

Although the cannonball didn't explode, it was after all a big iron lump weighing more than [-] kilograms, with the blessing of [-] times the speed of sound - the wretched uncle Huang Yuan said: Speed ​​is power, this is true, five With its own weight of a hundred catties and supersonic speed, the huge inertia suddenly caused the enemy ship to sink down, and then I saw that the ship seemed to be broken from a stick, with its head and tail folded suddenly Together, they broke off and quickly sank into the sea.

"Yoho~ We are so powerful, we can sink the enemy ship just by smashing it, hahaha..." After receiving the information from the lookout, the people in the No. Not firing is not a good sign, but at least it can be regarded as sinking an enemy ship, whether it was bombed or smashed, after all, the enemy was wiped out, and a good start was ushered in. This is the record, this is the credit, No one can say anything.

Chapter 1141 Competition

Chapter 89 Competition

"Tch, what's there to be proud of? Is the one that sinks considered a record?" Seeing the No. [-] cannon screaming, the artillerymen of the other four cannons were not happy, and said with a little taste, but they said When they said this, their hearts were also a little empty-although the goal of the No. [-] cannon was to smash the enemy, it was much better than their first cannon. What method is used to kill the enemy, even if it is bitten with your teeth in the end, you have to give your mouth when it is time to bite.

Hearing these sour words, the gunner of the No. [-] gun was even more proud: "Why do I hear this so sour? Why is it not a record if we smashed it? Don't care if we smashed or exploded, we can knock out the target It's credit—His Highness has a saying that is good, a black cat is a white cat, and it is a good cat if it catches mice... It is credit for me to destroy the enemy, how do you care about me destroying them?"

"Don't talk nonsense, just keep firing and shoot me all the shells." Seeing this, Ye Shan immediately ordered, now is not the time to be happy, the enemy has hundreds of ships, and they are still there Fast forward, getting closer and closer to him. Although not all warships are inside, no matter if any ship breaks through their defense line, it will be a great shame to them artillerymen.

"Yes." The artillerymen stopped being jealous and jealous, and immediately pulled the cannon rope, and the five shells that had already been loaded were fired again.

"Boom boom~"

The roar sounded again. This time their luck was really good. Three of the five shells actually hit the target. Although two of them didn't hit the vital point, they just rubbed the corners, but still the same sentence, In front of the [-]-kilogram shell, as long as it hits, no matter where it hits, it is basically the end.

Not to mention the first one, it was directly blown into pieces, and its power was no weaker than that of a torpedo.The second troop carrier was hit on the stern of the ship, and the ship was directly blown up, and finally capsized in the sea, and all the people on board were detained inside.And the last shot is even more legendary, because the last shot didn't hit the enemy ship, at most it could only be regarded as a side-shot, and the shell didn't even explode, but the shell exploded when it entered the sea.

As I said before, the power of explosives exploding underwater is many times stronger than that in the air. Sometimes the destructive force caused by a near-miss bomb may be more severe than a direct hit, because the near-miss bomb explodes near a warship and forms a The density of seawater is much higher than that of air. This pressure will directly destroy the hull structure of the warship through seawater. The power caused by a small shell may be even more destructive than the destructive force caused by a heavy artillery shell in the air. It is bigger, and the artillery troop carrier affected by the near-missed bullet fully proves this point-the side of the ship's side boards affected by the near-missed bullet was blown away at that time, and even the side ribs were gone. , Haishu penetrated in a large amount, although it has not sunk yet, but it is barely floating on the sea surface, and it will sink in a short time.

"Beautiful." Seeing this, Ye Shan waved his fist fiercely, which shows that he is also very satisfied with the bombardment this time.

"Hahaha...what's this called? Feng Shui turns around." The gunners of the No. [-], [-] and [-] guns were proud, because they were responsible for the three hits, but the No. [-] Fort, which had a good start just now, did not make any contribution. Chang's face is more ugly, of course, the one with the more ugly face is the gunner of the No. [-] cannon. After two rounds, the other four cannons have gained, but their No. [-] gun has nothing, wasting two precious shells in vain. In his opinion, the laughter of his colleagues is even more of a great irony.

"Give me a little more accuracy, it's useless." The No. [-] gunner was furious. full of sarcasm.

"Yes." The artillerymen of the No. [-] Artillery also held their breaths. Artillery is a technical arm, and each of them can be called an elite, and the coastal defense artillery is the elite among the elites, but today they really don't have the face to call themselves elites. ... We must fight well this time, and we must never fall behind others.

In fact, they don’t need to be like this, after all, the distance between the two sides is still more than 50 kilometers, and they are shooting targets at sea, and they are not firing missiles. to 5.00% - and that's a pretty high hit rate.

So let alone two rounds, even after ten rounds, it is normal to miss even one shot. Only when the distance of the enemy reaches [-] kilometers away will the hit rate be greatly improved—— According to According to the lookout's report, the No. [-] turret also fired two rounds, but only hit one in the second round, which was the side of a cargo ship, and sent that ship into the bottom of the sea. Without meritorious service, such a hit rate is considered normal.

The problem is that the No. [-] battery was very lucky today. Four of the ten shells hit the target in two rounds, and the only one that missed was the No. [-] gun. How can this not make the No. [-] gun commander feel ashamed and ashamed? ?

"Boom boom boom boom!"

"Woooooooooo~"

Another five cannonballs were fired, and after 3 minutes, the watchman quickly reported back the results: "Three rounds of shooting hit two shots, namely the No. [-] gun and the No. [-] gun."

"Yo Hoo!" That's all for No. [-], and No. [-] Cannon suddenly cheered——Finally, he has made a contribution, and he no longer has to suffer from the feeling of being on his back just now.

"Very good, now we are in the lead, keep it up." The gunner of the No. [-] gun was also very happy, because after three rounds, only they hit two shots, and the others only hit one.

"Hmph, don't be complacent, we will overtake you soon." The rest of the people were naturally unconvinced and said very unhappy.

"Since you are not convinced with each other, let's have a race, with a limit of [-] kilometers. Before that, see who can sink the most targets. The four losers pool money and invite the winner to go to the Desheng Tower (Yesheng Building) Have a delicious meal at the largest restaurant in Hong Kong)." Seeing that none of his subordinates were convinced, Ye Shan couldn't help suggesting that he was in a good mood—competition prevailed in the Datang Army, and the five soldiers of Fort No. [-] The cannons are competing, and as the chief officer of the No. [-] Fort, he also competes with other forts, especially the No. [-] Fort, which has exactly the same configuration as him, is Hayama's most powerful competitor. Now the No. [-] Fort has been fired. Sank six enemy ships, but only two ships were sunk after three rounds of the No. [-] Fort. It is obvious that he has an absolute advantage, and Ye Shan is naturally very happy.

"Competition? Okay." A slight smile flashed across the No. [-] gunner's face: "I like competitions the most. I'm sure I'll have this meal today."

The No. [-] gunner sneered, "Tch, of course you are indispensable for this meal, but you invited me to eat as a loser."

"Everyone will talk big, don't forget, I am the one who has the advantage now, and I am destined to eat this meal." The No. [-] gunner interjected.

"Hmph, that's not necessarily the case." The No. [-] gunner was quite unconvinced, and cursed: "There is no absolute, a temporary lead does not mean a permanent lead, and maybe you won't necessarily be able to win battles with these two ships today."

"That's right, isn't it just two battleships? What are you talking about?" The No. [-] gunner raised his eyebrows and was in a good mood. Hearing the words, he quickly echoed: "I didn't get any gains in the first two rounds, but I hit a hit in the third round. It’s about accumulating character, now that I have accumulated enough character, it’s up to me to play it next.”
