Through the light signals, the Snow Bramble Battleship rapidly delivered the battle order to the entire fleet. The entire formation of the North Wind Fleet flashed silently. The ferocious Iron-blood battleships started to change from horizontal to vertical and cut into the periphery of the fleet. In this way, they could achieve the maximum output of firepower.
The key manufacturing technologies of the 4 iron-blood battleships and the 8 cruisers of North Wind Fleet including Snow Bramble were all provided by Golden Roc Bank to Ice and Snow 5 years ago.
The Iron-blooded Battleship might not be the most powerful battleship in this era, but it was at least comparable to the mainstream battleships of most countries in the Western Continent in this era, except for the Eastern Continent. In some special functions and standards, such as the ability to break ice and resist wind and waves, it was even better than ordinary battleships.
After adjusting the formation, North Wind Fleet approached that huge ship of Sacred Light Empire. However, none of the ships in the open waters of Saint Herner Island responded to it. Because North Wind Fleet had to go out to sea for training these days, it was normal for them to change their formation in the course of marching.
Many luxury cruises were gathering in the open waters of Saint Herner Island. Many people on those luxury cruises were sunbathing as they watched North Wind Fleet changing its formation with great interest. At the same time, they were discussing the wager and odds with those beside them.
The entire North Wind Fleet was 7 miles away from that huge ship of Sacred Light Empire. Slowly, they closed in to within two kilometers.
At this distance, a few people on luxurious yachts who were watching the North Wind Fleet through binoculars felt that something was wrong.
In the telescope. All the cannons of the four battleships of North Wind Fleet were aiming at the same direction with a killing qi. Additionally, they occupied the horizontal line of the "T" which could maximize the firepower of the fleet. There was only one ship in the "T" position, a huge ship with the symbol of Sacred Light Empire which had just arrived yesterday.
What is this, could it be …
In less than two minutes. North Wind Fleet had been within 1,000 m of that huge ship of Sacred Light Empire.
For a warship that could destroy an enemy ship from 20,000 meters away, a distance of 1,000 meters was almost equivalent to two people fighting with a bayonet within a meter range. As long as the bayonet moved, it would almost be pressed against the other party's stomach.
One was brimming with killing intent, while the other was oblivious to it …
No one thought that the North Wind Fleet would dare to attack at this time. It will be at this moment. Under the gaze of so many people, he opened fire towards the ship of Sacred Light Empire …
With a loud sound, "Boom...", the sound spread over 10 square miles in the open water of Saint Herner Island, breaking the tranquility of the entire open water of Saint Herner Island...
Ordinary steam centrifugal cannons wouldn't cause such a loud noise. For example, the power of the steam centrifugal cannons for city defense came from the huge momentum and speed brought by the rotating flywheel provided by the steam turbine. However, steam centrifugal cannons on battleships were different from ordinary steam centrifugal cannons. In addition to the first acceleration brought by the flywheel to the cannonball, the super high-pressure steam pressure valve in the turret of the battleship was also activated. As a result, the cannonball accelerated for the second time after leaving the flywheel.
The first acceleration of the cannonball came from the great centrifugal force caused by the linear speed of the flywheel. The second acceleration came from the instantaneous release of the super-high-pressure steam in the barrel of the cannon. The principle of this instantaneous release was similar to the explosion of the boiler due to excessive pressure load. Compared to the explosion of the boiler, the process of releasing the super-high-pressure steam in the turret of the battleship was actually an artificial effect of the boiler explosion through the complex control mechanism in the barrel of the battleship. When applied to the cannonball, it would bring a great initial speed and strength to the cannonball. As a result, the cannonball weighing over 700 kg could reach over 800 m per second and cause a great destructive power when it left the barrel.
The super-high-pressure steam centrifugal cannons used on the battleships in this era were not only powerful, but also as loud as the main cannons of the steel battleships before the Cataclysm.
...
This time, all the battleships of the North Wind Fleet fired at the same time. At this distance, in the "T" formation, if they missed the huge stationary target, then the gunners could just jump into the sea and commit suicide.
Almost at the same time, the huge ship of Sacred Light Empire was hit by 24 armor-piercing gel cannonballs weighing 734 kg while huge flames rose from the huge ship of Sacred Light Empire.
After penetrating through the hull of the huge ship with great strength, the armor-piercing gel cannonballs started to burn everywhere on the huge ship. The combustible substance in the cannonball was similar to that of the white phosphorous gel incendiary bomb used by airships. Even if it was attached to steel, it would still burn and melt steel.
As a result, the glass pieces on the huge ship flew over 100 m away. Needless to say, the people on the ship would suffer a great loss...
In the daytime, a huge firework suddenly appeared in the open water of Saint Herner Island.
At the sight of this scene, all the onlookers on the luxury cruises and the other ships were dumbfounded. Someone exclaimed out of excitement...
After 20 seconds, the battleships of North Wind Fleet fired at the same time, injecting another 24 armor-piercing gel cannonballs weighing 734 kg into the huge ship of Sacred Light Empire.
The flames on the huge ship grew fiercer. The high temperature released by the armor-piercing gel cannonballs boiled the surrounding seawater. Numerous seawater poured into the cabin through the huge holes on the hull of the ship. The huge ship started to tilt. Only after 2 minutes, the huge ship of Sacred Light Empire had sunk into the bottom of the sea and disappeared...
The heavy cruisers of the North Wind Fleet encircled the place where the huge ship had sunk, not to rescue them, but to plough the place where the huge ship had sunk twice with the high-speed steel balls that were shot out by the scattered weapons on the cruisers.
After doing all this, the North Wind Fleet patted their buttocks as if nothing had happened. They adjusted their direction and continued to sail towards the open sea …
...
"Gutsy, motherf * cking gutsy..." At the sight of this scene, a rich man from Ewentra Archipelago in sunglasses and a flowery shirt with a lot of beauties beside him threw his cigar into the sea as he shouted, "Steward, go to Saint Herner Island and bet 2 million gold coins on North Wind Fleet. F * ck, even if I lose this time, this father will accept the fact that North Wind Fleet dared fire cannonballs at those bastards..."
North Wind Fleet sank the flagship of the mace muling of Sacred Light Empire. All those who witnessed this scene were shocked by Peter's qi field and courage …
The entire Saint Herner Island was in an uproar...
...
In a hotel outside Saint Herner Harbor, the fighters of sea bear tribe who heard this news all fixated onto one of them with scorching eyes.
"Let's check out of the hotel tonight and go to Navyblue Castle!" That man took in a deep breath as he said in a muffled voice, "The prophet pontiff is right. This is the decisive and power that the king of Ice and Snow Wilderness should have! Only such a person could bring honor and dignity to Slavs! "
