The next day, the Kaitai arrived at the scheduled exercise waters... About three miles away from them, a small island about five kilometers appeared in the sight of everyone. That was the target of their trip. There were also some ships moored around the island...

‘General Deng’ Our first exercise was to bombard fixed targets. A master with five stars embroidered on his robe pointed to the island in the distance, where many fortresses, city walls and beachheads had been built...

‘After the first round’ we will bombard the moving targets, that is, the ships anchored on the sea. At that time, these ships will anchor and then move along the sea and wind. Our purpose is to test the combat capabilities of the ships during their journey. This will be the key point.

．

What is the effective firing distance of the Shenwei Cannon?

Deng Peng asked

‘About two miles’ above this distance, there can be a top bombardment to a fixed target. If you are hitting a mobile target, the distance may be closer. This will make you more sure to aim. The master said...

It will be very difficult to 'Aim at the moving target'!

Deng Peng frowned

‘We have tested a complete set of aiming methods’. It is effective. As long as the sailors study hard, they can master it…

'Your method was tested on land'. The sea combat is quite strong. Whether this method works is effective or not, I have to see it. If there is any problem, I hope that after this test, you can find a suitable method for aiming at sea. Deng Peng said

．

The general said, "The great craftsman bowed and said."

We will take care of it.

Pointing to the island, Deng Peng said: "The distance is almost the same" Let's start!

The huge hull of the Kaitai began to turn, and the left side aimed at the island...

．

Prepare! 'A craftsman dances with a red flag' standing on the platform and shouting loudly

Twenty-five windows on the side were pushed open at the same time, and the black muzzle poked a hideous face from the window...

．

Aim! ‘Each muzzle of several craftsmen begins to get busy’ the angle of the cannon begins to adjust…

．

Shoot! ‘The red flag fell heavily’ twenty-five torches stretched towards the bow line, and a fiery red line quickly extended until it disappeared into the tail seat of the Shenwei cannon.

The sky collapsed and the earth was violently loud, and within one second, the huge hull of the Kaitai was smashed backwards. The giant was actually bombarded by more than 20 cannons. The powerful recoil was pushed back by about ten meters. A piece of smoke was filled with smoke. The first deck was already over.

Even though he stood on the deck of the fifth floor, the loud noise still made Deng Peng's ears buzz. For a moment, he could not hear anything, and his face changed drastically. He was not a battlefield for a long time, but his nerves were tempered and extremely tough. He almost sat on the deck.

As the smoke of gunpowder dissipated, Deng Peng looked at the first deck. The sailors on the Kaitai were dull, most of them sat on the deck, and some even squatted on the ground with their hands and ears, all of them were pale and their faces were pale. Some people did not expect that the power was so powerful that they were unstable on the ship, and they fell to the ground heavily, kowtowing to the bloodshed...

Deng Peng looked at the islands outside the two places and was beyond recognition. The previous one was scarce, and the city wall was already full of holes, and a raging fire ignited in the woods above.

This is just a round of shooting, Deng Peng shouted in his heart

．

General!.

The master craftsman next to him said:．

This is a solid bomb specifically used for attacking the strong city wall. The fortress is the most practical in naval battles and is very effective in attacking the opponent's hull. If a ship is too much, it will inevitably sink. If it is broken into two parts, it is possible. There are also flowering bullets that specialize in killing. This will explode after being shot out. The broken iron pieces will be the destruction talisman of the soldiers when we were tested in Dingfangzhou, even the plate armor produced by Dingzhou could not completely block the bombardment of this shrapnel...

‘Good things’ good things! ‘Deng Peng has already reacted at this time’ No wonder the lord was flirting with his divine power cannons. It was indeed a weapon of the country. If each warship was equipped with such cannons, who could stop the Dingzhou Navy?

‘Great General’ Next we will bombard the moving target, Master Craftsman

"Okay" Let me take a good look at your achievements... The ships that were preparing to serve as targets in the distance started to anchor and began to move along the water. Following several small boats, the soldiers on the ship began to evacuate, and the Kaitai began to chase these floating ships...

The wind and waves on the sea are not small. Because the huge hull of the Kaitai is enough to resist this and the degree of wind and waves, the ship still seems very stable, but the standard ship in the distance is just a small boat of about 3,000 materials, which rise and fall in such wind and waves.

．

Prepare!.

．

aim!.

．

shooting!.

The previous procedure began to be repeated, but once the sailors on the ship were all prepared, one by one, one by one, and one by one, and the other was steadily taking steps under their feet.

The loud rumbling sound passed by, and the technicians on the ship had no time to watch the shooting fruits, and quickly began the second round of training, clearing the chamber, applying medicine... Anti-solidity, loading, and proceeding in an orderly manner.

The sea breeze quickly blew away the smoke screen. The Kaitai waved out of the smoke screen and looked at the sea. Deng Peng couldn't help but frown. A mile away, three target ships were still drifting on the water. Only one ship was lit with flames. It seemed that the twenty-five cannons were bombarded, and only this ship was hit by a shell. This and the degree of fire, if there were sailors on it, they could easily be put out...

．

The effect of hitting moving targets is not very good!

Deng Peng shook his head and said...

‘Yes’ It is difficult to strike mobile targets itself, the master craftsman said:.

The lord once said that if the five-layer decks of Kaitai are equipped with Shenwei cannons, a ship can be equipped with nearly 300 gates, and each side has more than 100 gates. Under such a cover shooting, it will make up the shortcomings of scabies hit rate...

．

Three hundred goals? ‘Deng Peng couldn’t help but be amazed’ ‘So many’ Do you know how much it costs to shoot each shot?

．

The cost of each shell is about five taels of silver, Master Craftsman

．

Five taels of silver! ‘Deng Peng was shocked’ ‘So much’ Each eight-cow crossbow is only half a tael of silver, and each trencher has a lower shell. Isn’t this burning money? After a while, after fifty shells were fired, one hundred and fifty taels of silver were gone?

The craftsman smiled and said, "General" this is just the cost of shells. If you add more to the other level, each shell will be shot out, Dingzhou will need to spend nearly ten taels of silver.

．

Too expensive!

Deng Peng shook his head repeatedly...

．

But his effect is not comparable to the functions of the Eight Niu Crossbow and the Cast Stone... The master said... Nowadays, water wars are more close to the ship, and the emergence of the Divine Power Cannon has reduced the possibility of such near-side meat to the lowest level. Perhaps in the future naval battles, the possibility of meat swinging will become lower and lower, which will ensure the safety of our soldiers' lives to the greatest extent...

．

That's right!'Deng Peng nodded'.

But this hit rate is too low.

The master nodded, 'The arsenal has fully considered this.' The lord also gave instructions. In order to reduce the opponent's athletic ability, the arsenal has developed a chain bullet to attack the opponent's sails. During the naval battle, Ruxing broke the opponent's sails, and the opponent's warships will almost become our targets. General, let's take a look at the attack results of the chain bullets!

Kaitai turned a corner and aimed the other side of the ship's side at the target in the distance.

．

Attack! ‘After a command’, the Kaitai hull slides backwards.

During this shooting, Deng Peng clearly saw the shells flying in the air. Between the two black spheres, a metal chain was tied. The two rotating spheres flew over the target and tore the sails of the plaque ship. The high temperature on the shells made the sails catch fire and burn quickly, wrapping the mast, and the huge hanging force broke the mast. This round of attack greatly reduced the speed of several plaque ships in the distance, and almost stopped.

．

Hit it!.

Deng Peng was overjoyed.

The craftsmen on the first deck quickly replaced the live ammunition. With another roar, the ships in the distance could never escape the misfortune. They were hit by a raging fire. Black smoke rolled on the ship. One of them was broken with a keel, broke from the middle and quickly sank. In a moment, only the bow of the ship was left raised high, and passed by for another breath. Apart from a huge vortex on the sea, the ship was gone without a trace...

'This is just the effect of bombardment of twenty-five divine cannons.' If the divine cannon on each side reaches 150, then a volley would be a giant ship like the Ningzhou of the Southern Army, which would be sunk on the spot. It would be a shock to the power of the divine cannon, Deng Peng murmured...

The master craftsman smiled and said, "The General is right." A giant ship with 10,000 materials like the Kaitai is carrying thousands of sailors and soldiers. If you fight on the side, the battle will be extremely cruel. However, long-range attacks like this can kill the enemy completely, but we will not damage one person. This is the power of the divine cannon. Like the catapults and eight-ox crossbows, it is difficult to sink the giant ship with 10,000 materials in a short time...

"With this weapon," Pang's navy general was undoubtedly destroyed. Deng Peng was full of excitement, "Even if there are only fifty magic cannons now," it was enough to catch me off guard. He would never have dreamed that we already had such a powerful weapon. Deng Peng was a little excited and regretful, "It's just a pity" that I couldn't understand Pang Jun's skillful command skills. In the face of absolute power, no skills are useless...

．

The general said...

'You must work hard these days' to make our sailors proficient in shooting skills. Deng Peng said: 'It seems that the combat philosophy of our sailors will undergo another major change.
Chapter completed!
