Rise of the Wasteland Chapter 387: Battleship attack
Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
"They burn coal, and no one has heard of anyone bursting coal."
"Their ships are larger than ours, and their sinking resistance is better than ours, and they have no problem at all."
"Their companions are nearby, you can get rescued by jumping into the sea, and we are dead when we jump into the sea."
......
The two armed speedboats were lost all at once, which was almost like a crashing head. The George fleet had to avoid the Nassau offshore, and the remaining six ships of the fleet had heated discussions. Everyone agreed that their commander was stupid!
Of course, this can only be considered in private.
The George who leads the fleet still has command, but he is not willing to run so far away but leaves with a disgraced face, still looking for opportunities to retaliate. The way to retaliate is to blockade!
I've been running so far away, with no results at all, how can this be done? I do not go! I will guard against guerrillas near Nassau, not allow any ships to enter the port of Nassau, cut off your internal and external contact, and look for opportunities to see if I can make a big vote.
This is the tactics of Commander George in Matanzas. The constant harassment and the continuous attacks make the enemy unable to live a normal life. He decided to copy it to Nassau.
However, Nassau did n’t seem to care about the six ships of George. He did n’t dispatch the killer AC-130U to drive it out, nor did he take off the unmanned reconnaissance plane to search for it, as if nothing had happened.
George imagined that the enemy ’s nervous and impulsive revenge did not happen at all. The entire Nassau sea area was quiet. Except for the thin ice on the sea surface, only the crew who had been frozen into dogs complained. He had to contact ‘007’ Wade lurking in Nassau by radio, and the news was that there was no movement on the island.
"What's the matter with the people on the island? I blocked their port, but they didn't respond at all." After staying on for a day, George felt like a fool and ignored. The six armed speedboats he led could not be active at sea for a long time. If the enemy can't die, he can only leave in disgrace.
"Shameless, indecent, despicable, without any military qualities! They were blocked by people, and they didn't respond at all. They were simply courageless." Commander George was not reconciled. You guys come up with something to fight me anyway!
The high-level advisors of the ‘Enclave’ military advisory group have been slapped so far in the past that they have slapped their opponents? The most hateful thing is that the opponent won't continue to fight after winning a game. This shows the chance of not turning over with others!
George hated the tooth, and he decided to wait another day. If the opponent doesn't die, he can also go back and declare that this is because he is too strong, leading to the enemy's fear of avoidance.
And at this moment, the steam battleship that completed the boiler installation in the shipyard of Nassau shipyard has finished its transformation. This boat is barely usable. Anyway, it is an emergency product that can run for a month or two without water leaks, and fight for a battle or two without sinking into the sea.
The dock opened the gate to release the water. After the warship floated, the boiler was started. It took more than an hour for the boiler to accumulate pressure, pushing the steam turbine to give the warship power. Captain Derek of the "Aurora" personally led a group of sailors to board the ship and drove the ship out of the dock to start the trial.
"Not bad, not as bad as you think." Captain Derek was still very satisfied with the initial trial, and it was already a miracle to be able to transform a steam warship in a short time. "The engine room has strong pressure ventilation, sprays kerosene into the boiler, and increases the power. Let's try how fast we can run at full speed."
Zhou Qingfeng got several oil tanks and dozens of tons of old kerosene. These kerosene can't be used for burning because they have too much residue.
The engine room sprayed kerosene into the boiler, the fire suddenly soared, and thick smoke came from the chimney. The power of the steam turbine has also been increased by at least 30%, and the entire battleship immediately broke through the maximum speed of 15 knots, reaching 18 knots.
A thousand-ton steam battleship ran out of eighteen knots, and it was really majestic. At this time, the ship's sea search radar found several fast approaching targets. It didn't take a lot of thought to see the speed of the ship to know that it was the armed speedboats that ran into trouble the previous two days.
The first officer on the ship immediately suggested: "Captain, should we retreat to the defensive circle of the floating turret?"
"No, let the turret be ready, we are armed for sea trials." Captain Derek refused, "When the enemy approaches, fire."
Because of too hasty, the main turret of the steam battleship is an Army howitzer of M777 155 mm caliber. It is said that this gun can only hit fixed targets on the ground, and there is no way for speedboats running around the sea, but it can't hold people's artillery groups with guided shells!
The ‘copper snake’ laser-guided projectile is a bit old. In order to make this artillery shell powerful, a fire guidance team worked on the bridge of the battleship. A full set of artillery observation equipment and laser target indicators were placed, and the sea was still calm at the moment. The target was an armed speedboat approaching at high speed.
At this moment, the George commander also found the steam warship that Aurora Legion just came out for sea trial on his radar. As soon as he saw that a big goal came out, his commander was simply overjoyed, and he waited for meritorious service, known to the world, and had long waited for impatiently!
When the radar speed measurement showed that the target was only 18 knots per hour, and the sky saw black smoke, the George commander did not pay attention to his opponent, "Ha Ha Ha ..., these stupid people really made a steam warship. But This speed can't escape our pursuit. Now it can't run away even if it wants to run. Let's beat it up! "
In order to teach ‘Aurora Legion’ a hard lesson, Commander George decided to use the ‘Hellfire’ missile, which he has been hiding for a long time. This missile was originally installed on an M1117 armored vehicle, and is now installed on the ship of Commander George together with the launcher.
'Hellfire' has a range of ten kilometers, which is extremely powerful. George decided not to give the opponent any chance to counterattack this time. He must get rid of the opponent first, "Go forward! The other party killed. "
The violent George commander, with full of grievances, decided to take revenge as he says today. For the two armed speedboats sunk two days ago, for the men who died on the sinking speedboat, and for the humiliation in front of each other's idiot floating turrets, he decided to ...
The commander ’s inspirational mood is brewing, but a large-caliber cannonball falls from the sky, and a violent explosion explodes across the sea. The roaring sound shocked Mr. George's brain, and in front of all the fleet, another armed speedboat fell down.
"Oh, where is this artillery shell?" Commander George looked at the shell that just hit his own speedboat, and he didn't react for a long time. "In theory, I should fire first!"
It ’s just that the captains of the remaining five speedboats of the entire fleet are very tacit, completely ignoring the **** ‘theory’ of their commander, and turning their heads when they see the situation. No one wants to stay to verify that the theory is correct. (To be continued.)
