Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Theoretically speaking, this type 4100 high-level dual-purpose artillery can cause more damage to personnel than the rocket launcher just now.

As for the reason, the main reason is the magazine design.

I don’t know what the designers at the time thought about designing a semi-open magazine design for this kind of artillery.

It is precisely because of this design that the 4100-type artillery can use the self-weight of multiple platoons to press the bottom platoon into the bottom push plate, and then use the push plate to press the shells into the gun bore.

Or just use the pressure plate on the magazine pocket to press the magazine into the push plate.

It is precisely because of this design that the 4100 type can ensure continuous firepower.

PS: Friends who often go to the battlefield, have you seen the crooked handles or pheasant necks during World War II? The crooked handle is the magazine design, which theoretically allows unlimited shooting.

The pheasant neck is fed by a platoon. As long as the platoon is supplied, unlimited shooting can be achieved.

The Type 4100 is similar to this weapon, but has a larger caliber.

It can be said that the Type 4100 high-level dual-purpose artillery ranked first in the damage to sailors of the two fleets in this naval battle.

Even one person can't stop the attack of a 100mm quadruple artillery gun.

Of course, this is in theory, but in fact, the 4100 cannot shoot without interruption because the barrel cannot withstand it...

Due to the high rate of fire of the Type 4100, the barrel will be red after basically one or two minutes. At this time, the barrel needs to be replaced, otherwise, there will be a risk of the barrel exploding.

At the same time, due to the special magazine design, the 4100 cannot automatically feed ammunition, so it requires a large number of logistics personnel to supply it with shells.

There are really more than 40 people serving a 4100 artillery piece.

Perhaps the most enjoyable person is the gunner.

When could he sit in his seat like he is now, with his foot on the shooting pedal without letting go?

This is what he truly achieved, which made him happy and exhausted thousands of families.

It was precisely because of the fierce firepower on Daxia's side that Edward was stunned.

Who would have imagined that the fleets of their two countries obviously had more warships, but judging from the scene, it was the Daxia people who had the advantage in firepower?

Edward couldn't figure this out.

However, he also knew that he had no room for regret now.

As the saying goes, you have to walk the path you choose even on your knees.

What Edward wanted was to rely on more warships on his side, engage in a bayonet battle with Daxia's combined fleet at sea, and defeat the third combined fleet in the most ferocious way.

But in the end, the Third United Fleet not only refused to retreat, but fought back and forth with itself, and even had a vague firepower advantage.

While this puzzled Edward, he was also filled with fear of Daxia's fleet.

Yes, Edward at this time was full of fear towards Daxia's fleet.

He couldn't imagine what would happen if Daxia reinforcements arrived again when he couldn't defeat the Third United Fleet.

You know, most of the warships of the John Empire and Millican are concentrated here.

If he fails again, no one will be able to stop the Daxia people from dominating the ocean.

As the saying goes, whatever you worry about will happen.

Just as the battle between Edward and Goldberg's third combined fleet was in full swing, a large amount of black smoke appeared to the west and south of the fleet.

Edward didn't even need to think about it, he knew that it was the Daxia people's first and second combined fleets.

Because the warships that John's Empire and Milician can now use are all here, and it is impossible for him to have reinforcements.

Daxia's two fleets were circling behind.

The black smoke that suddenly appeared on his side and behind him was definitely the fleet that the Daxia people were encircling behind.

At this time, Edward was desperate. He could already think of the consequences of the failure of this naval battle.

The centuries-old maritime supremacy of the John Empire will be lost today...

Like Edward, Gobber now noticed black smoke emerging from the south and west.

He had even confirmed that it was the First and Second Combined Fleets that were coming.

At this time, Gao Bode's mood was exactly opposite to Edward's.

Because, he is already standing at the door of victory, he only needs to take one more step forward, and he can step into the hall of the winner.

History will remember this day and Gao Bo, because on this day, it represents the end of an old maritime hegemony empire and the birth of a new maritime hegemony.

Starting from today, the fleet of the Daxia Empire will freely navigate all oceans in the world, and no one can stop it.

The flag of the empire is flying all over the world.

And all this requires is defeating the fleet in front of you.

Gao Bo took two deep breaths and forced himself to calm down. The more he reached this moment, the more he needed to calm down.

How many things in this world have accidents at the last moment, resulting in failure?

Gao Bo didn't want to try such a mistake.

"Send an order to the entire army to raise the Blood Dragon Flag, and the entire army will fight to the death!" Gao Bo said in a deep voice.

Blood Dragon Flag, the iconic flag of the Daxia Empire.

In the history of the Daxia Empire, it only rose twice.

Once when the founding emperor founded the empire, he fought a great war with the strongest princes at the time in the south of the empire.

At that time, Emperor Taizu ordered the blood dragon flag to be raised, and then stood on the bow of the ship and fought to the death with the enemy. The Daxia soldiers who were not yet part of the empire at that time, saw their emperor taking the lead, their eyes were red, and they fought bravely to kill the enemy.

In the end, Daxia won a tragic victory in that battle and annihilated the Chen Kingdom's 180,000 navy, laying the foundation for Daxia for hundreds of years to come.

The second time the Blood Dragon Flag was raised was during the great sea battle thirty-seven years ago.

Daxia and Sakura Kingdom competed for dominance in East Asia and also for control of Goryeo.

In the waters near Goryeo, the imperial fleet at that time was attacked by the Sakura Kingdom.

The then naval commander Ding Xuanren ordered the blood dragon flag to be raised in a deadly battle. As a result, the huge fleet, which was the largest in Asia and the eighth in the world at the time, was completely annihilated.

Although it was later found out that Ding Xuanren was ambushed by the Sakura Kingdom because Luo Chen was behind it. He was worried that the empire would become dominated by military personnel and the status of civilian officials would decline, so he misappropriated the Imperial Navy's military funds and informed the Imperial Navy of its whereabouts. To the cherry blossom country.

This led to the disastrous defeat of the Imperial Navy.

But no matter how you put it, in the history of the Imperial Military, the Empire has only raised the Blood Dragon Flag twice. Each time the Blood Dragon Flag is raised, it means that the Empire has entered the most dangerous and critical time.

Under the light of the Blood Dragon Flag, whether you are a general or a soldier, the moment you see the Blood Dragon Flag, you have only one purpose, to tear apart all the enemies you can see.

This is a signal, a concept, a cognition, and a belief.

"Call the First and Second Combined Fleets of the Great Xia Empire. Our Third Combined Fleet has raised the Blood Dragon flag and is determined to fight the enemy to the death!"

"Long live the Empire, long live the Imperial Navy!"
