Chapter 2102
The Charm of Krypton Gold
...
The gap that is visible to the naked eye is vividly displayed at this moment.
No matter how slow-witted Muhle was, he understood one thing: the opponent's means of attack could never be viewed with common sense.
The most terrifying thing was that he had no idea about the other party's reconnaissance and search methods. In such a dark night, they could still maintain such a high hit rate. It was completely excessive.
That kind of dazzling light did not appear on other ships, which also shows one thing, that is, even in the Han Empire’s fleet, not every ship has this kind of thing.
To some extent, this is a blessing in disguise.
Muhlai, who was trying to comfort himself in his heart, looked at the light flashing again in the distance and gritted his teeth.
The opponent did not display many ocean naval warfare skills, but instead just hung outside and attacked continuously through long-range attacks.
This is a tactic that everyone can use. It really makes it difficult for people to see the value of the tactics or the use of skills, but he just has no choice.
"Disgusting!" Muhle predicted the opponent's attack trajectory in advance and focused on adjusting the defensive trajectory of the group's defense. He defended again by shrinking.
The only means he had for long-range counterattack were the crossbows carried on the ship. Although they were quite powerful and the enemy's ship was large enough, the hit rate was high enough, but this power was completely useless when hitting the enemy's hull.
Unless it hits the deck directly and causes casualties to enemy personnel, otherwise it can only be said to be better than nothing.
This tangible gap in weapons can really make people feel desperate.
There are methods in this regard among the secret war techniques that he knows, but the distance requirement is relatively high. It is difficult to cause fatal damage at such a long distance.
But if the distance is shortened, the opponent's hit rate will also increase. Can the ships under his command really hold out until he gets close enough to launch the secret technique?
You must know that the prerequisite for launching the secret technique is to have a sufficient amount of reserve cloud energy. In simple terms, there is a basic requirement for the number of ships.
If we get close but the number doesn't meet the requirement, we'll be giving away our lives.
The decisiveness required on the battlefield was not reflected in Muhle's heart at all at this moment.
In this situation, Gan Ning did not choose to attack with all his strength and kill the opponent in the shortest time possible, but instead tried to delay the time as much as possible while slowing down the opponent.
Then he stared at the opponent's fleet with his own eyes, constantly recording the war techniques and secrets used by the opponent.
This is the first time for Gan Ning to engage in such a large-scale naval battle. The opponents he faces are likely to be stronger than ever before. Naturally, he hopes to find something in these people that can make up for his weaknesses and make himself stronger.
In addition to the lack of manpower, the huge Northern Fleet also lacks relevant naval combat skills. These are real shortcomings, even fatal ones.
So every bit of compensation counts, and for a better future, we have to give up temporary gains and losses.
"Gan Xingba is indeed a good naval commander, and Chen Zichuan's ability to identify people is excellent!" Looking at everything in the battle, Zhou Yu said with great satisfaction and approval.
Not only Gan Ning, but even he could understand and learn the skills demonstrated by the Kushan fleet in this process.
When Lu Su heard this, he looked at Zhou Yu and shook his head helplessly. It seemed that he was praising Gan Ning and Chen Xi, but he was also praising himself.
In any case, Zhou Yu's current situation is also the result of strong recommendation from the rear. This kind of behavior of praising himself in a euphemistic way can only be said to be the act of a wise man.
"The opponent's skills are really strong, not weak at all..." As if noticing Lu Su's gaze, Zhou Yu said casually with a slight smile.
The application of clouds on ships to this extent is indeed unprecedented and worth learning from.
However, this level alone is not enough to make up for the gap in ship power between the two sides.
At least when looking at the occasional streak of light across the sky, Zhou Yu asked himself and realized that he didn't think the other party had such strength.
If an ordinary ship dared to do this, it would have been killed by the recoil long ago. Only the all-steel battleship of the North could ignore the side effects of this vector projector.
Just think about it, a vector projector can allow an entire legion to be fully armed, from head to toe, with all metal armor and weapons, and you will know how expensive this thing is.
The cost of manufacturing a vector projector is even higher than that of a shield army, but now it seems that such power is worth the high price.
However, the prerequisites are too high, so even if Zhou Yu wants to add this thing to his ship, he has to hesitate.
Judging from the current situation, the ships owned by the Kushan Empire, even the large ships, are only about 30 meters long. Compared with the 100-meter ships owned by the Northern Fleet, they are indeed a bit small.
This type of ship, which was equivalent to the one he had owned before, also made Zhou Yu understand that there was no generation gap between the ships he originally owned and those of the Kushan Empire.
Neither getting rid of the Kushan Empire, nor being left behind by the Kushan Empire, so the pressure was not so great.
"Attack! Attack!" Sun Ce looked at the flowing light and swung the spear in his hand. The dazzling golden light was particularly eye-catching.
Gan Ning looked at Sun Ce, who was more excited than himself, and couldn't help but shook his head.
At this pace, I'm afraid Sun Ce will fall in love with the path of big ships and cannons just like me...
Seeing that as long as he could hit the target, he could sink the enemy's ship, Gan Ning was very satisfied with this power.
Although the price of each crossbow arrow is extremely high, it is not a problem at all for the wealthy navy.
At least the cost of the crossbow arrows is not as much as the loss when launching the vector projectile.
You get what you pay for. To some extent, this is the charm of spending money.
"Learning is learning, but at least we can't let the enemy get away!" Gan Ning looked at the assembled Kushan naval fleet. After several attempts at group defense failed, he began to disperse the fleeing naval ships and gave orders on the spot.
Muhle, who chose to carry out the action in this way, cursed the situation in his heart while also praying for himself, hoping that he would not be hit by the other party, otherwise, he would have no chance of survival.
If we gather together, we will die; if we disperse, at least there is hope of survival.
In any case, the number of his ships far exceeds that of Gan Ning's ships. This is an advantage, an advantage for escape... (End of this chapter)
