The Allied sailors, or those who were forced to become sailors, suffered from the rain of arrows, forcing them to raise shields that could not protect all their bodies, but in order to keep the transports moving, they had to use their hands to maintain the ropes, but these hardships finally changed when the real Allied sailors entered their shooting range.

"Fight back! Counterattack! "Although the Allies dismantled the ship's weapons in order to increase the speed of each ship, not all of them were removed, including some of the less heavy ballistas, and at this time, the sailors in the front cabin of the Griffin were loading the ballista arrows into the ballista.

The crossbow that the sun never sets has been used before is based on the scorpion crossbow of the ancient Roman Empire, and the war equipment synthesized by the fusion of Mo forging technology and some special technologies is characterized by being light and easy to carry, and at the same time has extremely high penetration and excellent hit rate.

Although the Allied ballista is not as good as the scorpion crossbow of the sunset, after all, they are all strategic equipment created by the dwarves, and the so-called dwarves must be high-quality, plus the allied ballista is the crystallization of hundreds of years of technology of the human race, so the Allied ballista looks ordinary, but its real combat effectiveness is definitely not worse than the crossbow of the Eastern Continent or the honeycomb crossbow of the Atlantan Empire, and it is said that the honeycomb crossbow is the predecessor of the Litthua ballista equipped by the Allies today.

The Lithua Ballista is known as the Shark in the Griffin Empire and the Silverblade in the Holy Empire. The characteristics of this crossbow are that it has two consecutive shots, and of course it is not a chain device similar to a modern tank in the Eastern Continent, but a dwarven craftsman who mounts two bowstrings on a bow body in a peculiar way. And rely on the mechanism to let it shoot out in turn, the biggest advantage of this design compared to the mechanism of the Eastern Continent is that the two consecutive shots will not reduce the accuracy and penetration of the ballista, and it will be easier to load the arrows of the ballista at the same time - the mechanism of the Eastern Continent is to stack some arrows in an arrow box, and then directly install the arrow box in the crossbow groove, the biggest disadvantage of this method is that it is a very laborious project to load the arrows into the arrow box, and it must be done by a veteran, I think that if you don't do it well, it is easy to cause the whole mechanical full-time jam.

"Aim for those ships. Fire! The counterattack of the Litthua ballistas killed and wounded a number of Xiyi warriors on a certain distance, but soon the griffons, equipped with some Litthua, were also targeted by the sun, which had been waiting for a long time, and the gunners lit the fuse at the sound of the order.

The roar of "boom boom" was denser and louder than before, echoing across the sea, and the flying shells tore to shreds the bodies of all moving Allied warships that had moved before the front firing range. Just now, Oda Nobunaga, the supreme commander of the Saiyi battleship, ordered that all the guns of all the Saiyi warships could fire freely from the moment they received this order. Until all the shells on the battleship are completely emptied.

It's like a flood. The amount of ammunition poured out by the Xiyi battleships even reached 200 or even 300 rounds per minute, and the number of Allied warships sunk in the area hit by the shells increased again, but what made the Allies feel a burst of excitement was that at this time, those "heroic" transport ship sailors finally threw the hook on the Antaku battleship, but they didn't know that at this time, in the gun compartment of the Antaku battleship attacked by the transport ship, the Xiyi sailors began to load a new type of cannonball into the gun port.

This was the last time the sun never set the Navy to obtain supplies for the transport ship, and the kind of artillery provided by logistics was said to be exclusively for the Navy. These shells were numerous, but they were several turns smaller than regular solid shells. At the same time, the sailors, after learning how to use it told by the craftsmen in the rear, began to follow the steps to make it together with nets to form a cylindrical body, and of course, they would also use the rare iron plates on the battleship to fix it layer by layer.

"Emperor bless, I hope these little ones can achieve the desired effect." This is what all the Xiyi gunners silently recite after lighting the gun fuse filled with grapeshot, after all, the size of each grapeshot is indeed a little too small compared to the regular solid shells.

After the slightly crisp roar of "boom" sounded, and the smoke rising from the gun muzzle was removed, some curious Xiyi sailors observed the condition of the transport ship on the opposite side through the gun hatch, but the effect shown by the naked eye did not seem to be very satisfactory to them. Because although the hull of the transport ship in front of him was full of tiny holes, it seemed that these holes did not cause any substantial damage to the enemy warship.

However, compared to the slightly disappointed gunners, the sharp-eyed Xiyi captain and some Xiyi warriors who were ready to fight white-knuckle battles went to discover the abnormality of the enemy battleship: the battleship that originally had some shouts of killing was surprisingly quiet at this time, and the originally straight hook rope also lost its strength at this time and began to droop slowly.

"It is worthy of a new type of shell, as long as the lethality of this close-range weapon reaches a certain height, it can even directly paralyze an entire warship." Looking through the telescope at the first transport ship in history to witness the power of the sunset grape bomb, Oda Nobunaga, who was far away in Maru, Japan, showed a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

After all, Oda Nobunaga is a rare admiral who has seen the actual combat test of grapeslet shells, and they all know that these seemingly non-lethal small shells can not cause damage to enemy warships after they are gathered, but they can cause large-scale damage to enemy ship-borne soldiers in a short distance, and these seemingly petite small iron balls have a short-range penetration ability that even completely exceeds the solid shells of grapes, at a distance of less than 100 meters, unless it is a steel plate with a thickness of more than 5 cm, Otherwise, even the keel of an ordinary battleship will be worn to you.

At this time, the unlucky battleship gradually emitted a burst of blood, of course, this is quite acceptable, if the samurai on the Ataka ship can understand the situation inside the transport battleship through the thousands of holes in the wooden planks that have been beaten, it is estimated that they can't help but vomit - at this time there are several transport ship sailors lying in various places in the transport ship, some of these sailors have died by themselves, and some of them are still convulsing and moaning, and the only thing they have in common is that each of them has at least one or even several fists in their bodies. Wounds that pierced his body, and some of them even emitted white smoke.

"Cut the ropes, we don't have much time for us to waste." As he spoke, a Xiyi samurai armed with a katana who knew at least one officer and at first glance cut the rope that hung from the handrail: "The enemy is less than a few hundred meters away from us, all of them are ready for me, I will throw them all down to feed the fish."

Confused but frightened, the Allied commander found that the transports that had already hung ropes on the Ataka ship stood motionless on the sea as if they had turned into ghost ships after the enemy warship spewed out white smoke from the flanks of the enemy warships, without sinking or with a figure, as if everyone on the battleship had disappeared.

The griffin knights who were in the air reconnaissance also passed this chilling news to each griffon warship, although the news was quickly blocked by the battle-minded captains, but its pale face still made the last thing it wanted to happen, and the situation was even more serious: the captains hoped that the fleet's morale would not be affected by blocking the news, but for the situation of the forward transport ship turning into a ghost ship, in fact, many Allied sailors who were preparing to engage in broadside battles knew a little, Even if you don't know, you have heard some even more terrifying rumors, and the current situation Captain Captain's face makes it obvious that these guys are in a cycle of death where the more they think about it, the more scared they become.

The comprehensive ability of the sailors of the Allied fleet, especially in terms of morale, is not very strong, and this time the regular fleet is not led by the sailors of the Holy Light Empire who will fall into a frenzy after reading the dogma of the Holy Light Sect, but the sailors of the Griffon Empire, and now the military heart is disrupted by the new weapons displayed by the sun never sets, and the combat effectiveness of the Allied sailors will inevitably be greatly reduced.

"It looks like the enemy is being affected by our new shells." Through the binoculars, he vaguely saw the somewhat pale enemies on the griffin battleship in front of him, and Oda Nobunaga smiled: "Now I believe more and more that we can win this battle, don't you say that the country is strong." ”

"Of course, in addition to the fact that these guys are well-armed and a little numerous, Su zhì can't even compare to the Atlantic sailors, I really don't know how the Holy Light Country and the Griffin Country can maintain control of the inland sea with just such a force." Beside Oda Nobunaga, Tanegashima Kuniken, who was already fully armed, sneered and said, "I think we can even win by crushing it directly." ”

"No, the king." Oda Nobunaga said: "Your Majesty once said that it takes all your strength for a lion to fight a rabbit, not to mention that now our group of lions say that we have to face a rabbit equivalent to the number of an entire grassland?" Guojianjun, I'm going to ask you next, although the Ataku ship is extremely powerful, but the number of enemies is also extremely large after all. ”

"Don't worry, Nobunaga-kun, my country is fighting all the way from the West Sea to the Inland Sea, without this awareness, I guess I would have fed the fish a long time ago, and now Nobunaga-kun has handed over such a precious command to me, rest assured, Nobunaga-kun, no victory! I'd rather die! ”

"Good! I believe that Your Majesty and the people I fancy will definitely be able to turn things around, and the Royal Fleet will be handed over to you, go, and when your signal is fired, all the ships of a thousand fires will obey your orders! (To be continued......)
