The Iron Ship Island of the Great Voyage

Moreover, if you really want to narrow the distance to the coverage of the magic cannon, the coverage of the range line of the artillery, even if you want to escape, you can't escape.

......

Anna stood on the deck and looked at the subtle ripples on the water.She softly chanted a mantra, and a big hand condensed with water elements reached into the sea.

After feeling for a while, she said: "Captain, judging from the movement of the sea waves, we should be surrounded. There are a lot of enemy ships, at least more than [-]. The nearest ship is only [-] nautical miles away from us. ..”

"Ah."

Raymond nodded, which completely matched the information he perceived.

He said: "The fish in the sea are also conveying this news...The northeast seems to be the enemy's main fleet, and the ship has a powerful aura that makes even large sea kings fear."

Raymond has the skill of [Soul Words] and can perceive the "emotions" of marine life.

Although he can't communicate like a dialogue, he can clearly perceive the signals that the sea fish avoid danger and communicate with each other.

Even though the fog blocked the view, the information exchanged by the fishes had already revealed the approximate location of the siege ships.

The guys from the [Night Emperor] regiment never imagined that their deliberate round-up had actually been exposed to Raymond's perception long ago.

At this time, Colin asked: "Captain, do we want to fire a few shots to test the enemy's situation now? This range is not a big problem for our newly developed magic cannon..."

"No, wait for them to get closer."

Raymond shook his head. Since he planned to fight a big battle, he couldn't easily scare the enemy away.

He also said: "The distance is too far, and the shooting deviation is too great. It is easy to scare those guys away. Since they used the 'fog of war' this time, it seems that they intend to sneak to a distance that prevents us from escaping. Let's pretend we didn't notice and wait until they're within 'absolute range' before firing..."

Colin nodded, "Yes, Captain!"

......

"Absolute range" is a naval warfare term that means the range within which a ship cannot escape.

This is an activity stat measured by the ship's technology level.

For the "Sea King-class" ships, the limit range of the Sea King cannon is about [-] nautical miles, and the so-called "absolute range" is roughly [-] nautical miles.

This range is the coverage of the magic cannon, and it will be difficult for the opponent to run away.

The speed is about the same, and the two ships will bite tightly.

Even if the opponent has an advantage in speed, the period of time out of range is enough for the magic cannon to reload many rounds of ammunition.

Within the "absolute range" range, fleeing is not a good option. The best option is to fight until one side is sunk.

This is what the pursuers of the [Night Emperor] regiment want to see!

Because, their "Neptune-class" warships have an absolute range advantage against the "Predator-class" warships!

Unfortunately, the opponent they encountered was the "Golden Ghost"!

......

For ordinary "predator-class" warships, this "absolute range" can only cover a radius of ten nautical miles. Once a "Sea King" warship approaches a range of twenty nautical miles, there is almost no possibility of surviving.

But for the special predator-class warship "Golden Ghost"...

This "absolute range" range is at least forty nautical miles, fully twice that of ordinary Neptune-class warships!

This is absolute technological crushing!

The range of other people's artillery is not as good as yours, but you can show their faces.

The identities of hunter and prey were immediately reversed because of the range of the artillery.

The two most important factors affecting the range of a fel cannon are materials and runes.

The greater the mana pressure that the barrel can withstand, the stronger the range and power of the cannon.

Therefore, this leads to the proportionality between the volume of the artillery and the range. The larger the ship, the larger the artillery can be loaded, and the farther the range...

But now, Ke Lin recast the magic cannon on the Iron Toad, and forged the top-level magic cannon exclusive to the "Golden Ghost" - the Toad Cannon. (Don't blame the author, that's Nicole's name.)

[Dwarf's Golden Rune Book] The S and SS level runes on it are too much beyond the current level of world runes.Now the "Golden Ghost" ships use the top-notch artillery materials, and the top-notch runes...

Because of this, the small artillery of the Predator-class battleship has the power to catch up with the range of the "Neptune-class" artillery!

And such a main gun, there are three on the iron toad.

There are also more than a dozen small artillery pieces with a slightly shorter range.

The current firepower of the "Golden Ghost" is a nightmare for any fleet below the "Neptune-class".

Yes, a fleet, not a single ship!

......

However, no matter how accurate the magic cannon is, the error of ultra-long-distance launch will be very large.

Hitting a ship dozens of nautical miles away is like shooting a mosquito with a gun.

The difference is a thousand miles away.

Shooting ahead of time might really scare those people away.

This time Raymond planned to teach those guys who played against their "ghost group" a painful lesson, so he naturally didn't want to startle the snake.

"Everyone hit a little bit of spirit, aim a little bit, and then fight for two rounds of artillery to kill the enemy's main battleship."

As Raymond said, he looked at Colin again, and said, "The 'Sea King' warship is not so easy to sink, and it may be necessary to snipe and kill at that time, and prepare for additional shots..."

"Captain, don't worry, I guarantee that the first round of main artillery will kill a Sea King battleship!"

Colin nodded, and said confidently: "The 'three-round superimposed shooting method' is enough to break through the rune defense armor of the Neptune, those guys... there must be no return this time."

"Ok!"

Raymond had naturally heard the technical term "triple overlapping shooting".

This method... is specially used to "break armor" for the ship's defensive steel plates.

The biggest reason for setting up three main guns on the "Golden Ghost" is to satisfy this shelling technique.

Three salvos fired at the same target with a one-second interval in between, and the shock wave would form a superimposed "resonance" on the hull.The destructive power of this method to the ship's defensive armor is about twice as high as that of simultaneous hits!

This is the main artillery technique routinely used to destroy ships, but it has high requirements for artillery accuracy.
