Chapter 72: Before the War
Of course, Aoi Tu doesn't know his achievements in the future, he is now an employee who faces the boss's interview, and the answer makes the boss full of dissatisfaction, which directly affects his treatment in the Juggernaut Legion, and determines the investment tendency of the legion's funds, after all, he is not the only ship designer recruited by the Juggernaut Legion.
"I've also found out about the hidden setting that can increase the chance of success by sketching the ship design first and then generating the drawings. However, I think the hidden setting of ship design is not so simple, which can be seen through the size of the system fleet in the game, and the three-masted battleship is very popular, which shows that it is common to have ship designers who can design three-masted battleships in the system city.
However, battleships are scarce as if there is a fault, in addition to the high cost of battleships, the fundamental reason is that there are very few master ship designers who have the ability to design battleships, and there must be some reason why senior ship designers cannot be promoted to master level.
The mode of naval warfare is to develop in the direction of giant ship cannons, and if the Juggernaut Legion wants to build a world-class fleet, the battleships must be able to design and produce their own. ”
From the time when I had just learned the basic ship design, and I was not even skilled in designing a sloop merchant ship, I thought of some battleships that were out of reach.
This is probably the reason why Aoi Tsuto can become a master ship designer.
Shi Fei was very satisfied with Aoi Tu's answer, and he asked, "What do you think is required to become a master ship designer?" ”
"I don't know yet, but I'll do my best to find it, at least for now, it's definitely not a shortcut to using gold to pile up proficiency." And using sketches to improve the success rate is the right idea, but it is not enough.
I think the reason for the scarcity of master ship designers should be to start with junior ship designers, and if they go the wrong way, directly determine the upper limit of a ship design.
The problems that NPCs face now will definitely be the problems that players will face in the future.
I hope that the Legion will give me some time, I will first find some information about the ships of the Age of Sail, and systematically study the hull structure of that era.
I need time to learn, I need time to think. ”
Shi Fei nodded: "I give you plenty of time to do whatever you want, and I will ask the intelligence department to cooperate with you in collecting information." ”
……
With an hour left before the delivery of the second batch of dhow battleships, Da Liang entered the bridge of the "Skeleton Warrior".
Looking at the tactical map of the Judgment Legion, the 50 sloops of the Judgment Fleet have sailed out of Pudong Military Port in batches, and have been divided into four small fleets to encircle the Lords' Combined Fleet from afar.
"The Blackfire Fleet begins its battle formation, the flagship Skeleton Warrior. The Skeleton Warrior is the lead ship, followed by the Iron Glove, the Iron Helmet, the Iron Boots, the Iron Plate Armor, and the Iron Pants. The fleet entered the battlefield from north to south along the coastline, with the Iron Gaunt, Iron Helmet, Iron Boots, and Skeleton Warrior as the first firepower group, and the commander was bright; The Iron Plate Armor, the Iron Pants, and the Skeleton Soldier are the second firepower group, and the commander is Sidney.
The main task of the 1st Fire Group is to suppress the enemy's capital ships with firepower, and the 2nd Fire Group to sweep away the dloops of the enemy ships.
This time we had to deal with a fleet ten times outnumbered by us. I hope that the captains will bring out our usual level of intense training, keep up with the flagship, and win. ”
"Yes! My lord. ”
The Skeleton Warrior led the way, and the other ships entered positions in turn, and the seven ships pulled out a battle line as they went.
"Shu Xiao, the Ruling Legion will take to the skies and enter the battlefield to protect my skies."
"Yes! Master, sir. ”
In the telescope, a large number of players riding aerial creatures in the Judgment Legion garrison take to the air, and after completing the formation, they are divided into ten air battle groups and fly towards the Lords' Combined Fleet.
The combined fleet of lords, who had been monitoring the Judgment Legion's station, reacted immediately, and an air force about the size of the Judgment Legion rose into the air, thinking that the Judgment Legion would attack it.
At the same time, the Black Fire Fleet discharged an attack formation and drove violently, which also attracted the attention of the Lord's Combined Fleet.
What happened to this Pudong fleet, isn't the system army not involved in the player's battle?
The sudden rise of the battle clouds made Shi Fei, who had received the news, return to his ship "Yinglong".
"All the captains of the combined fleet are ready to fight. According to the latest information, Da Liang has lent a fleet from the Pudong fleet by virtue of his rank and title. The invading fleet does not belong to the Pudong fleet for the time being, it is Da Liang who is in command, and attacking them will not attract the system fleet to attack us.
If you want to dare to fight us with seven warships, the university alliance has run out of skills.
All captains look at the tactics sent to you by the Juggernaut Legion through the backstage.
I will lead the 'Ying Long' and two brigs to form the main fleet to suppress their firepower, and the other sloops will be divided into eight fleets, the first fleet will follow the main fleet, and the other fleets will seek opportunities to seize the T-head and attack their bow and stern.
Wings of Dreams, our skies are up to you.
Pay attention to their archangels and notify me as soon as they appear. ”
As the order to fly sand and rocks was issued, the combined fleet of lords immediately moved, and according to the tactical guidance provided by the data background of the Juggernaut Legion, the fleets completed the formation at sea.
Shi Fei took out his binoculars and looked at the approaching fleet, the two three-masted battleships were at the head and tail of the fleet, and the relatively weak defense of the two-masted battleship was in the middle, so that the seven battleships would form two firepower groups with the two three-masted battleships as the core.
Looking at the direction of the enemy's fleet, it marched from north to south along the coastline.
"The formation is maintained so well, this is definitely the elite of the Pudong fleet. And...... When did Wang Daliang learn to command naval battles? This cut into the battlefield to reach the angle is definitely not something that a novice in naval warfare can master. ”
This naval battle is not easy to fight, Shi Fei looked at the crooked formation of the lord's combined fleet, and couldn't help but start worrying about this battle.
However, we dare to block the door here, and it is not only this fleet that relies on it.
"Start the battle, keep the forward pressure of the main fleet on the same course as the enemy fleet, and the other fleets will use your speed.
All artillery crews are ready! ”
The big light on the Skeleton Warrior watched the changes in the Lords' Combined Fleet, and everything was the same as deduced.
The combined fleet could not play a numerical advantage, so it could only use the main fleet to suppress the Blackfire fleet in firepower, and then create an opportunity for the dhow to cut in, as long as the sloops could separate the Blackfire fleet from the middle, then the lord's combined fleet would be victorious.
Of course, the premise is that the main fleet of the combined fleet can suppress the Black Fire Fleet, and if it can't suppress all plans, it will be a dream.
Da Liang was also observing the formation of the Lord's Combined Fleet......
All of them are novices, and as long as there are no mistakes in the air, this battle is won steadily.
Looking at the sky, Shu Xiao rode a silver Pegasus and led the Judgment Legion to arrive, and started a contact battle with the air forces of the United Fleet.
The air forces were evenly matched, and the commanders were afraid of each other. Shu Xiao and Dreamless Wings did not order a strong attack, and coincidentally chose a defensive air combat policy.
In the higher sky, Gu Tao has begun to take over the high-altitude warning work, and her broad vision allows her to coordinate the overall situation through the data command platform.
