Chapter 671 (2/2)
”Those three ships will not hold! And... ”Noel stood in the basket and looked at the four strange warships that were getting closer and closer.” I'm afraid these two warships can't run away... ”The corner of his mouth pulled up slightly, showing a smile that was even uglier than crying.
According to the experience just now, Noel is very clear that the distance between the two sides has already reached the range of the other side's shelling, but they just don't fire. Obviously, they want to shorten the distance and improve the hit rate.
Worst of all, Noel has nothing to do with this situation.
Whether it's the Atlantic horn or the seahorse, the speed that I used to be proud of has no advantage in front of these four strange warships. Run, certainly can not run away, their Atlantic horn and seahorse, must have been the other side as a live target.
Sure enough, as soon as Noel's idea was raised, he saw a lot of fire broke out on the four strange warships about six kilometers away from him in the rear. Before long, that kind of frightening scream sounded again in the sky.
Standing in front of the porthole of the Carlos bridge, the stone bear sighed and thought, ”this naval battle is not as simple as those novels in previous lives.”
The speed of sailing warships in this era is not fast. Even if the Yanhuang tribe has produced qualified steam powered steel warships, it has a full advantage of more than a century ahead of the warships of any country in this era, but it still can not occupy the crushing advantage in naval warfare.
There are too many factors affecting the naval battle.
The most important factor is sea state. Today's sea conditions are generally good. Although the wind is stronger and the waves are bigger, it still has a huge impact on the naval battle.
When the wind is strong and the waves are strong, the more bumpy the steel warship will be when it advances at full speed, and this kind of bumping directly affects the accuracy of artillery attack, which has been fully reflected in the artillery attack just now and now.
But whether it is Carlos class or the future Cherokee class, the displacement is not large, which makes it unable to maintain a more stable state in the storm. If our warships were replaced by the battleships with a displacement of more than 20000 tons in the first World War, the main guns would definitely maintain better stability in firing under the current sea conditions.
Another is artillery. Although the Yanhuang tribe's 105mm cannons have been ahead of the cannons of this era for more than a century, the 105mm cannons are really not enough in naval warfare.
You know, among the real battleships of later generations, the 105mm gun is not even the auxiliary gun.
The accuracy of long-distance artillery is far worse than that of small artillery and light artillery. Not to mention the appalling 460 mm main gun of the Yamato, the warhead of which weighs 1.5 tons. Even if you get an 11 inch (280 mm) main gun for your warship, it's beautiful.
But the stone bear soon sipped back the saliva that almost came out of the corner of his mouth.
Think about it. I'm not crazy yet. It's no different to use the 280 mm main gun to attack this kind of sail battleship than to use the antiaircraft gun to attack mosquitoes? Well, another thing is that even if the largest Cherokee is equipped with this 280 mm main gun, it is estimated that once the gun is fired, the shell will not hit the enemy, and the Cherokee will have to be directly split in two by the huge recoil generated by the firing
”Just think about it, well, just think about it...” stone bear grabbed his scalp helplessly.
The next moment, the distance suddenly lit up a bright light, immediately attracted the sight of the stone bear in the past.
One of the two French class-3 windsurfing battleships in front of us burst out a fierce fire on the deck, and the main mast of the ship was blown off
