Sweep the World

Chapter 753: : Confused

Long-range weapons are indispensable for fierce battles in the sea. Bows and crossbows are indispensable weapons, but the first weapon to make a sound must be a bed crossbow with a longer range but a huge body.

   After the two fleets enter the state of war, no matter how their formation changes, the only constant is that the air must be full of howling arrows, and most of the arrows will inevitably burn with grease.

   The rocket is shot into the hull, and the arrowhead is naturally nailed into the wood. At that time, the burning grease will burn to the hull. In fact, a small number of ships can't ignite the hull at all, at most it will smoke smoke, but it will be different if it hits an object with a combustion-supporting material.

After the battle began, it was indispensable that the sails hit by the rockets were ignited. Fibrous objects were always afraid of flames. They would become combustion-supporting objects, and then spread the fire to the entire deck. The ignited people ran around and brought the flames into the hull. , The fire will be difficult to stop, and it will not take long for the entire ship to burst into flames.

At the beginning, the two sides could line up to fight in a straight line. As a ship ignited a fire, especially the cabin, the people who should be paddling the oars were busy extinguishing the fire or fleeing for their lives. They would lose their ability to move. When he becomes a drag on the formation, a small team is so broken.

   After entering the state of war, the Han warship used its own range advantage to attack unilaterally. This situation lasted for nearly ten minutes, turning one enemy ship after another into a torch. Before the warships on the Gupta side were close enough to counterattack, at least twenty or thirty ships were not in the effective attack sequence.

The battle between the two sides with you coming and me was ten minutes after the start of the battle, waiting for the bed crossbow of the warship of Gupado to be launched, and the strong crossbow on the side of the warship of Han was also added to the shooting, and the whole battlefield appeared such a picture, mid-air. The middle is full of arrows flying.

The warship of the Gupdo side faced the attack of the Han army bed crossbow and the strong crossbow, but the Gupdo warship could only use the bed crossbow to counterattack, but the Gupdo side still stubbornly continued to approach. It can also be seen that Ah San... at least The Gupta naval battle did not dominate A Sanyo for hundreds of years.

   "The loss is worth it!" Javala Kangding Warren is destined not to be in the assault sequence. He will stay in a relatively safe rear and command his fleet. He didn't seem to be deceiving himself, but said confidently: "In repeated confrontations, as long as we can overcome the early disadvantages, the next time is our time to play!"

   Among all the current countries, the Romans can compare with the Hans with sophisticated equipment. Taking large-scale equipment alone to compare, Han Guo relied on Zhu Xia's heritage to hold the bed crossbow, a big killer, and has been improving the bed crossbow to ensure its range advantage. Rome not only had bed crossbows, they also obtained ballistas from the Greeks, and the range of ballistas was actually far longer than that of bed crossbows.

   In fact, it must be said that the Romans attached great importance to military equipment, and their infantry-based legions would basically carry various equipment, especially siege equipment. This also led to the Romans never relaxing the development of military equipment. If anyone in this world recognizes the importance of equipment, perhaps the Romans have a deeper understanding than Zhu Xia.

The rest of Asan believes in what Javala Kangding Warren said. It is an established fact that they are inferior to the Han army in terms of equipment. They can only get close and entangle each other to offset the disadvantages of the equipment. It’s when they enter the battle of the ship. The performance time of the three.

   Wang Yan has learned from past engagement data that the strength of Gupta naval warfare, if it can avoid close combat, it will definitely not fight, and the instructions given to each formation is to keep the distance from the enemy as far as possible.

  The battleship formation of the Han Kingdom in the battle naturally has its own disadvantages. If it can keep a long distance and use its own range advantage to send the enemy ship to the bottom of the sea, it will only want to go to the sea when the brain shell is broken.

If there is a battle between several ships against several ships, or a battlefield with more than a dozen ships, some have enough space to move around, but when the number of ships at war is large, then it’s really not that you can rush to wherever you want to. There are friendly or enemy ships everywhere.

   After half an hour of the battle, the formations of the two participating parties slowly became less formations at all. If there is coordination, there will be a small number of two or three ships that can interact, and the rest is simply the enemy that needs to be dealt with.

   "Passing the order!" Wang Yan finally knew what Li Mai meant by those words before. It's one thing to think about it, but it's another thing to be worthy of the other party: "Go out."

At the beginning, the Gupta navy was still fighting in formation, and then it simply dispersed the formation and pounced in a disorderly posture. Their actions really hit the weakness of the Han Navy, and which ship did the Han Navy deal with? There is basically no difference between enemy ships. Set fire to sink or maimed one, but more enemy ships are approaching. If you want to keep the distance, you have to retreat the entire front, but the big fleet really doesn’t want to retreat and retreat. It’s chaotic. It will inevitably happen.

   No matter whether it is on land or at sea, no one can fully grasp the entire army. The idiom such as arm instructs is an adjective, and no one has ever been able to do it.

The situation on the battlefield is that a part of it falls into chaos, and then it evolves from multiple parts to a whole chaos. At that time, the commander's orders can only be general. For example, it is impossible to let the chaotic troops do collectively. Or what a single formation does, if it is a whole retreat or a desperate battle on land, the same situation is also true in naval battles.

   There have been many enemy-we warships entering the battle. At this time, the Han warships took advantage. The Han warships had a higher deck height than the warships on the other side.

   Fighting has always been that the side occupying the height is advantageous, and what can be seen is that the Han army crossbowmen standing at the advantageous height shoots arrows from the height, shooting over one by one Asan who dared to rise up.

Ah San is no stranger to this situation. What they can do is to organize the archers to counterattack, and at the same time let all those who can participate in the battle shake the rope with the hook, and they will be able to see that once there are two warships of different ownership. Close to each other, in addition to the arrows shooting back and forth, the ropes are constantly throwing each other, and the next moment people are swinging and trying to climb.

Not every warship on the other side can be successfully connected. It has to be that size. The size of the ship is not big enough. The face is that the speed of the warship has not been controlled to approach. In a collision, if you are not big enough, you will be knocked over.

   Almost when Wang Yan ordered the stern to attack, Javala Kangding Warren also ordered his own assault boat to be dispatched.

  The navies of Han and Gupta did not count warships alone when calculating combat power, but included both stern and rushing boats. The battle between the two sides will be when the forward fleet enters a stalemate before dispatching the stern or rushing boat. That is because the two sides have suffered enough in the early battles. If the big ship is not in a stalemate state, the stern or rushing boat will be dispatched. Will be called. However, the size of the cockroach and the chongzhou can't stand a few crossbows at all.

   "Order the left-wing fleet to attack." Wang Shan can't actually grasp the entire battlefield. He can only look at the general situation: "Pull the enemy fleet formation."

   The two fleets at war are really not squeezed into a group. They will separate into groups as if they are fighting on land. There will also be the arrangement of the Chinese army and the left and right wings, and even the reserve team is indispensable.

  The place where they started fighting was within ten miles of the coast, and they had been away from the coast for at least fifteen miles. As the fighting time lengthened, the distance between their respective fleets became wider and wider.

"The left wing of the Han people has been dispatched?" Javala Kangding Warren always felt that something was wrong: "The enemy has dispatched at least two hundred warships of all kinds, so why doesn't the headquarters see a decrease in numbers? "

  Salar Sakuman is not as slow as his immediate boss, he noticed something wrong from the beginning.

They guessed that there were about 500 Han troops coming to attack, but the number of Han troops participating in the war was also more than 200. The headquarters seemed to be thick and a large layer, not to mention, the left and right wings could be seen. The number of reserves is really large, and there is another fleet preparing to land.

   By this time, if the Asans have not recognized their guessing mistakes, it is not that there is a problem with the eyes, but also with the head.

Javala Kangding Warren and Salar Sakuman looked at each other for a while, and their faces were the same ugly. They had already determined that the number of warships from the Han State was definitely more than five hundred, and there was a lot of speculation. It may reach nearly a thousand!

   "It's incredible!" Javala Kangding Warren said with a cold face: "Our intelligence has never been right!"

   Previously, Gupta’s estimate of the total number of warships of the Han Expeditionary Army was 800, but now we can see more than 800!

  The number is far beyond guess is not fatal, because even the number of warships of the Han Kingdom can make mistakes, so what else is they believe that the truth is not at all false?

   "The enemy's right-wing fleet is also dispatched..." Salar Sakuman raised his finger: "We...the number gap is too big."

The Gupta’s navy has indeed more combat experience than the Han Navy. To some extent, once they enter the battle, they can get good results, but the difference in number is a certain amount, even if one ship is exchanged for Han. Two ships, it's time to feed the fish before they have exchanged their own warships.

   Fighting to this moment, looking at the overall situation with God’s vision, the two formations that entered the melee situation earlier, the loss of both sides in the battle was 27 ships on the Han side, and 34 ships on the other side. There will be such a comparison, or the Han Chinese warship has the advantage in range in advance.

   If the melee continues, the loss ratio will soon open. Generally, the Han army loses more and more in the melee. That’s because the Han people do not have as much experience as A San in terms of port warfare. The more reason is that even if close combat personnel are arranged on the system warship, the system warship is not originally used for close combat. Those personnel are also drawn from the army, which is really not so suitable. naval battle.

Wang Yan is now facing a very headache. He strangely finds that a large number of his own warships cannot adapt to close combat. Once an enemy ship is connected to the side, as the soldiers arranged on it cannot resist, the ship follows the soldiers. Part of the battle died, either captured or turned into a torch.

【how so? 】Wang Kan couldn't figure out why it was like that, but he had the decisiveness that a general should have: "The ministries have already engaged in battle, and it's time to wipe out the enemy!"

It’s okay if experience is not as good as people, and close combat is not as good as people. It’s not a big deal. Everything can be reversed with absolute numbers. As an out-and-out general Zhu Xia, whether on land or at sea, if you don’t know how to bully people with numbers, Then this general will be for nothing.

The order that Wang Yan received in advance is not to wipe out the enemy here. Their task is to capture the port set up by Gupta. If they cannot eliminate Gupta’s navy, they will force the Gupta navy to retreat to the mainland and let the Gupta navy be intercepted long ago. The main fleet on the way home to solve it.

   Of course, if the navy of the other side can be wiped out, Wang Yan is unwilling to slip away from military service, otherwise he knows that chaos will become stalemate, how can he keep throwing himself into the fleet? What is the purpose of arranging the encirclement of the fleet by relying on the number of its own warships?

As a contemporary Patriarch of Warren who has been playing the navy since his ancestors, Javala Kangding Warren reacted when he noticed signs of encirclement of the enemy. The Kshatriya who entered made various promises, requiring them to resist until the last moment, and then led the headquarters to move.

Just when there were smoke and fierce battles from ships everywhere on the sea, Gawara. Kangding. Warren was carrying around 70 ships of his headquarters to do the transfer~www.wuxiamtl.com~ His move is all over the place. Asan seems to take it for granted. The noble Brahman can escape quickly when the situation is unfavorable, just like Kshatriya should order the untouchables to fight for a way of escape in order to escape for himself.

   There was also a scene on the battlefield. Too many small and medium-sized enemy and us formations killed the dead mountain and blood, but the commanders of the two fleets started chasing and fleeing with their headquarters.

This situation is undoubtedly what the Han side, which has an advantage in numbers, is happy to see. They can completely deal with the enemy with several ships. And as the enemy's commander flees, the enemy's will to fight will also be shaken, eliminated or eliminated. The difficulty of capturing captives has been repeatedly reduced.

   The fighting started at about nine o'clock in the morning, and the transfer by Javala Kangding Warren took place at noon when he saw that the situation was unsuccessful. After he started to transfer, the Han army also moved into the port.

   Wang Yan led his headquarters to pursue for about an hour, and saw that he couldn't catch up and didn't admit his death. Instead, he wisely returned to participate in the landing operation.

"It turned out to be like this..." Of course, Wang Yan would not land in person. After returning to the army, what he did was to get the total casualties and results of the formations. When he got the data, he kept smiling: "There are 59 ships sunk in the war alone. Lost combat power reached 87 ships."

Wang Yan had to smile bitterly. They used 850 large and small warships to deal with about 300 warships on the Gupta side. They sank and captured more than 200 warships, but they lost so much under the premise of occupying an absolute advantage in numbers. .

  【How bad is the navy of the big man? 】Wang Kan really doesn’t understand: 【It shouldn’t be! 】
