Skyroad Chapter 1198: Ocean Currents

It seems to be to confirm Huangxi’s words. At about 11 o’clock at noon, a small map called Sea Urchin Reef appeared right in front of our map. This is a whole series of islands and reefs. The reef is here. It has already protruded from the water surface about 20 meters high, forming an island, full of corals and shellfish, which looks colorful and green.

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, an artillery shell exploded about 20 meters away from the left side of a light-armored warship sailing ahead, sending waves soaring into the sky, and also agitating waves of ripples.

"Be careful!"

Standing at the bow of his battleship, he stretched his hand to the east and said: "I saw the warship of the murloc race, they are hiding behind the island and reef to ambush us!"

"Got it."

I nodded and said in the team channel: "Dear heroes from the national service, we are about to enter the frontal bombardment battlefield. Everyone is in place and ready to welcome the first official hot weapon naval battle of our lives! "

Everyone laughed, their faces full of excitement, and then they got into the cabin and took their positions. At the mast of the flagship, a Xia clan soldier blew the horn, sending the entire fleet to be ready for battle!

……

A few minutes later, a murloc warship left the shelter of the island and appeared about 3 miles away in front of us, densely packed, there are about thirty ships, this should already be the entire elite fleet of the murloc. All the battleships were flying the white pirate flag, and the murlocs with highly evolved and highly intelligent standing on the deck, "hissing" loudly, seemed to be ordering in the language of the murlocs, and then all the warships were one after another. Started to turn the rudder, facing us sideways.

"They are going to start shelling!"

I frowned and ordered loudly: "The three keel battleships go forward and draw firepower to me at the forefront of the entire fleet. All the battleships have turned their rudder and attacked them with gunfire on the left. I aimed and fired. We don’t have many shells, so don’t waste too much!"

"Good!"

The sound of the snails agitated again, a whole fleet began to turn the rudder, and then the artillery fire rang out, the first round of shelling, the "Peng Peng Peng" flares bloomed among the distant murloc fleets Among them, three shells seemed to hit the side of the opposing warship, causing some damage, but it was far from sinking.

And the opponent's artillery fire continued to fall from the sky in disorder.

"Peng——"

With a loud noise, a shell directly hit the flagship and exploded on the outboard side of the ship three meters in front of me. A hot flame surged. Fortunately, Huangxi, Xiaowei and I had already opened our shields. The wall is gone, so the players on the flagship hardly suffered too much damage, but a groove was punched on the outer ship's side, and the iron was burned red. After all, the A-class keel battleship can withstand a shelling is absolutely no problem, but if there is too much... ...That's hard to say.

"MD……"

I frowned, and directly asked a group of gunners in the cabin, "What are you guys in this group of goods? You missed one of the four guns, and the most accurate one was 100 meters away from the other's warship. , If it doesn’t work, replace it!"

"Ahahahaha~~~"

Wang Jinhai scratched his head: "Boss, give another chance. We just had a trial attack in the first round of shelling..."

Speaking, he vigorously shook the calibrated roulette, while shouting loudly: "Okay, fill the shells, and the second round of shelling will begin immediately. This time, give me a long shot, visually measure the distance, and use straddle shooting tactics. Do you know?"

"Understood!"

The other gunners nodded together.

"Ignite, launch!"

The next moment, there were four consecutive loud bangs from "Peng Peng Peng". The four guns on the left side of the flagship fired together. Together with the shelling from other warships, all of a sudden, I saw "swishes" in the air. Flying around, one after another flaming artillery shells were shot by us, and some by the other side. The two sides immediately killed each other.

"Shield Wall!"

With a low drink, I shook the dragon shield wall out again, but this time the flagship did not hit the cannon, but there was a loud noise on the critical keel battleship. The middle deck was shot, and an archer who had no time to dodge directly When the seconds passed, the surrounding heavy armor players were also blown into half blood, very embarrassed. In addition, several light armored warships were also shot, and the gun smoke filled.

However, our shelling effect in this round was slightly better than the previous round, especially the gun operated by Wang Jinhai, which directly hit the side of the opponent's murloc fleet's flagship ship, causing the flames to flutter and the smoke filled. .

"Yes, continue!"

I took a deep breath, and the next time I ordered everyone to bombard, and the next bombardment can no longer maintain a salvo, but you can shoot and shoot each other. The victory or defeat of a naval battle depends on luck and hits. Rate up.

The two sides shelled for nearly ten minutes, and there was damage to each other, but they never sank any warship, and at most they were only wounded.

"That's not right..."

In the cabin, Wang Jinhai scratched his head and said, "I have seen and practiced the simulation of the bombardment system that comes with "Skywalk". With the tactics of straddle shooting, only finding a suitable angle can double the hit rate. Yes, but...how do you feel that the hit rate is so different from when I simulated it, it's not a level at all!"

Lin Che smiled and said: "The simulation is different from the actual combat. In actual combat, you have to consider wind speed, ship speed, etc."

"No ship speed."

Wang Jinhai shook his head: "Both of us were almost ready to bombard, and no one sailed in order to be accurate! The refined artillery of the Xia clan we used in the national service, the accuracy and attack power are stable in the barbaric murloc clan. That’s right, but our hit rate is not even as good as theirs. This must be tricky."

"Ocean, are you sure there is a problem?" I asked.

"Hmm!"

He nodded: "Boss, there is definitely a problem, trust my judgment."

"There may indeed be a problem."

I lowered my head and looked at the water surface under the ship’s side. The ripples were moving, so I turned on the tool that comes with the system and looked at the flow of the surrounding sea area. I suddenly found that our fleet is on the map drawn according to the intensity of the flow. Time is on a golden map zone, which means that our fleet is on a highly active ocean current zone. In fact, although our fleet seems to have stopped, it is actually moving all the time, and even quietly changing the angle of shelling and the direction of the hull. Constantly changing, the shelling accuracy is naturally far worse than the opponent.

Look at the position of the murloc fleet. Just now, under the cover of a reef, the sea where they are located is almost still!

The two fleets use old-fashioned heavy artillery, which is far from the same level as the accuracy of rapid-fire guns in modern naval warfare, so this factor is very important.

At the next moment, I groaned and said: "All the warships obey the order, stop the shelling, turn my bow and approach the opponent's fleet, enter their two-mile area and launch an attack again!"

"Huh!?"

Small afterglow shouted from a distance: "Axi, you are crazy. We couldn't shell them at first. If you get closer, won't it become a living target!"

I laughed and said: "Don't worry, there is a strong ocean current below our fleet, and the accuracy is too severely affected. As long as you sail one mile, you can enter the still water area. Then you will understand!"

"OK, do it!"

Suddenly, more than 20 Xia clan battleships turned and rushed towards each other. After sailing for one mile against the artillery fire and wind and waves, they turned their rudders and pointed their muzzles at the murloc army again!

"Shelling!"

I commanded loudly. In the next second, dozens of warships spit out their tongues of fire together, and one after another burnt red shells rushed into the distance. In the next second, the sound of "Peng Peng Peng" was endless, the Murloc fleet Fires of shelling hits continued to rise on the flagship and several of the first battleships, and even a light boat was hit by our flagship's heavy artillery. After a loud "bang", it exploded into two pieces and sank quickly!

"Okay, beautiful!"

Smoky afterglows couldn’t help laughing: "One ship was sunk, brothers, come on, come on another one!"

In the distance, the murloc commanders on the deck of the murloc fleet seemed to be panicked, hissing yelling, and their artillery fire became more fierce, but there was a certain gap in the quality of the opponent’s warships. Especially for the flagship, our three keel battleships were in the forefront, and the armored shell blocked most of the artillery attack damage, but the opponent was lingering and panting under the shelling of our large-caliber artillery.

Moreover, entering the still water area, the trained artillery shots of Wang Jinhai and other players are indeed worthy of boasting, especially Wang Jinhai, after ranging, can almost maintain a close-range artillery hit rate of more than 35%, and has been pressing the murloc. ’S flagship slammed and overturned the opponent’s two giant cannons in succession.

"Their flagship has lost its combat effectiveness."

I waved my palm and said, "The sea, aim at the two frigate ships next to attack, and keep the hull of the flagship for me. After the fight, let's tow the ship back to the national service!"

"Hahaha, understand! Don't you want those boats?"

"Take everything that can be used~IndoMTL.com~Don't use anything that can't be used, sink it all!"

"OK!"

For a time, the shelling sound continued, and the murloc fleet showed a one-sided disadvantage. After the flagship was damaged by us and lost its combat effectiveness, light warships were pierced through the ship’s side one after another, and sea water poured in. It sank quickly, while the murloc warriors who fell into the water roared and rushed over, drawing waves on the sea.

"Use the main artillery to bomb them out!"

I gave an order, and the three keel battleships fired one after another, and the water splashed one after another, blasting the murlocs to pieces.

On the side of the ship, a group of players raised their swords one after another, shooting arrows and releasing spells at the murloc warriors who rushed over to fight the beasts in the distance, and for a while they entered the hand-to-hand combat again.

……

However, at this moment, I know that the result of this battle has been laid, and we have already won a complete victory in the first battle!
