Chapter 359 360 Evolution"Let the destroyers and cruisers outflank the past! Attack the enemy's flanks first! Take advantage of speed! The front of the battleship force Attack! Keep firing!" Putting down the telescope again, Laurens changed the formation of his fleet.
The long serpentine array was immediately divided into three squadrons. The battleships and some cruisers with relatively large gun calibers remained in the front, while some light cruisers began to accelerate up ahead.
These cruisers were built with different degrees of new technology. The previous coal-fired boilers were eliminated and replaced with oil-fired power systems. Because of this, the speed of these cruisers is much faster than the speed of the old cruisers.
The single-ship speed of many cruisers can even reach astonishing 50 kilometers per hour, which is much faster than fearless ships.
It's just that when they are in formation with fearless ships, their speed is restricted.
Now, they are ordered to act alone, which is equivalent to the release of the seal. Therefore, soon these battleships with small artillery calibers accelerated away from the slower main fleet.
At the rear of the entire fleet, the destroyer fleet following in the distance also received orders at this time, and began to turn their bows and chose a more aggressive route.
"I don't have so many textbook tactics! I know one! Punch the old master to death!" Lawns grinned and said to the adjutant standing beside him: " When the bayonet is raised, I'll see what the demon's fleet is capable of!"
He is almost in a state of fearlessness now, with his back to the Osa naval port, as long as he buys enough time, the demon The fleet will be increasingly disadvantaged.
Soon, Alanhill's new destroyers will be in service, those with missiles that are more capable of combat than the battleships he has now.
By that time, Alanhill's navy will not be a defensive navy. He will command his fleet to go out to the endless sea and take the initiative to find the demon naval fleet for a decisive battle.
So, now Laurens doesn't care about losses at all, he just needs to do his best to fight the battle in front of him.
"Keep firing! Let that group of demons focus on the front! It's important to give them a little bait and let them bite the hook!" After forming a crescent formation, both sides moved forward in the middle and did not move, assuming a posture of attacking the demon fleet from three sides.
In the Floating Void City Fort, watching Alanhill's fleet start to divide into three groups, the evil Demon General led coldly snorted and raised the corner of his mouth: "You want to eat my fleet? It's not a small appetite! I want to see if your flanks are faster, or my central breakthrough is faster!"
In fact, this is the collision of tactical arrangements. Knowing that the enemy is outflanking from the two wings, he is in a dangerous place.
Sometimes, the side that divides troops is actually the side that takes the initiative to take risks, and concentrating troops to defeat them separately is a more reasonable tactical arrangement.
Seeing that the Demon Fleet did not divide its troops, but instead picked up the regiment and rushed directly into the encirclement of the Alanhill Navy, Laurens knew that the enemy was going to fight him.
After all, demons know that they can't afford to drag them, and that nuclear weapon that will fly anytime, anywhere, and when, is the sword of Damocles that really hangs over their heads.
It is absolutely reasonable to adopt this kind of central breakthrough tactics for the demon fleet that pursues do it quickly.
Moreover, from another point of view, the strategic attempt of the demon fleet to go north is to land and destroy Osa, or to control the island of Piripi.
If the naval battle is protracted, Alanhill's pre-battle preparations will become more and more complete, and the suddenness of the attack on these two places will disappear.
Therefore, no matter which direction you look at, do it quickly, and destroy the human naval fleet in front of you as soon as possible, is a strategic task that the demon fleet has to complete.
"bang!" Alanhill's naval salvo began with the third salvo, also 24 shells, which also fell within the Demon Navy's fleet.
This time, the hit accuracy was higher, three shells directly hit the demon battleship, and instantly sank three huge black battleships.
The demon battleship is not a battleship in the true sense. This kind of appearance looks majestic and a strange battleship covered with barbs. Although the defensive ability is much higher than that of a sailboat, it is not as good as a sailboat. It looks so sturdy.
Its defense improvement is mainly reflected in the two innovations of the steel shell and the magic defense barrier. Unfortunately, the Magic Defense Barrier was barely able to deal with small-caliber artillery, but it seemed powerless to deal with large-caliber artillery.
At the same time, the steel hull, which is not armored and has a very general thickness, has very limited physical defensive performance for large-caliber artillery shells above 300 mm. Therefore, it is not surprising that the hull was penetrated all at once.
As a result, the three demon battleships broke off and exploded, and there was no possibility of persistence at all. And the unlucky demon battleship that was penetrated earlier by the hull has now completely disappeared into the sea.
After all, these battleships are powered by magic. This power system is very unstable. As long as it is destroyed, a large-scale explosion will occur, which is almost the same as the explosion of a gasoline engine of a tank.
However, the smallest of these demon battleships are more than 150 meters long, and they are really huge. When they explode, they are far more spectacular than tanks.
"Chirp!" On the other side, on the demon battleship, which had been passively beaten, the magic-guided cannon turret of the giant Great Demon array engraved with magical inscriptions also spewed enormous energy.
The demon fleet began to fight back. They couldn't take care of the problem of aiming. They couldn't bear it any longer. They started a frantic attack on Alanhill's main fleet.
The demon fleet, which has an absolute advantage in number, fired dozens of battleships in one breath, and countless magic-guided artillery energy bullets flew towards the target. For a time, Alanhill's fleet was shrouded in artillery fire.
Some of the blazing energy directly crashed into the sea water next to the Alanhill battleship, and also stirred up a water column up to tens of meters. Some of the energy is very poor, directly crossing Alanhill's fleet, flying far away before crashing into the sea and exploding.
This frenzied attack also didn't cause any trouble to Alanhill's fleet. However, this splendid attack also made Laurence, who had never seen this scene, feel the strength of the enemy.
It was completely different from the enemies who could not fight back, or had no effect at all. The enemy at this time was not the target, so Laurens instantly felt the pressure on his shoulders.
It's a pity that his tactical arrangement has been carried out, and now he can't change anything. All he can do is just wait and wait for a result.
The Emperor Your Majesty Chris once said that the navy is a very tragic branch of the military, because it is the only one that can lose the whole war in one morning...
Before, when Laurens' navy was invincible, he used to disapprove of this sentence, but now, at this moment, he really agrees with this sentence.
"Hurry up and reload! The distance is good for us!" Laurens urged his men, the whole bridge was in a busy atmosphere.
"bang!" As the distance between the two sides continued to narrow, the main guns began to roar on the cruiser behind the battleship.
These 203mm guns join the roar. At this time, it wasn't just the 305mm main gun that fired, so the number of shells that flew into the enemy's camp suddenly increased exponentially.
A dense rain of cannonballs fell, and above the demon fleet, the array of those huge magical defense barriers was struck by these cannonballs and splashed with ripples.
Magic resonance shells breached these defensive barriers, and more shells fell, hitting the deck of the demonic battleship.
The demon battleship, which looked solid and heavy, was hit by these long-range shells, and soon burst into flames and smoke, turning into steel coffins one by one.
These poor demons on the battleship have not had time to show their strength and ferocity, and along with their battleship, they have become food for various creatures in the ocean.
Many battleships collided with each other in burning and exploding. Those demonic battleships that gathered together and seemed to have great morale, were in chaos at this moment, and even the most basic order was disappeared.
The reloading time of the magic gun is too slow, and the interval between attacks is too long. After Alanhill's naval battleship fired another salvo, these demonic battleships that fired in the first round did not have time to fire again. Own second salvo.
If it weren't for the existence of the Floating Void City Fort above their heads, perhaps this naval battle would have turned into a one-sided massacre.
Seeing that their fleet had lost dozens of battleships in one go, the evil Demon General army standing behind the crenels was a little impatient.
You must know that not all of his fleets are naval battleships. On these battleships, there is also a demon army for landing!
If he fights with the human navy here, when the time comes where will he go to find the landing troops to destroy Osa and land on Piri Phi Island?
He must destroy the human navy in front of him as soon as possible, and then rush to the beach to land and mix with the enemy before humans drop the atomic bomb-this is his original plan, and now he still thinks this plan is the most The perfect action plan.
"Let the Demon Dragon Army advance! Take off the demon fighter jets! Cover the Floating Void City castle! Prepare all the magic guns on the castle! Target the human fleet!" The evil Demon General faced the shadow behind him, commanded word by word. ►
There will be another update later, everyone will read it in the morning...
