At this moment.
The pirate captain touched his beloved bronze cannon.
The cannon is just a barrel.
Add a gun mount that can move slightly up and down.
The gun mount is moved by stuffing wood into it.
The muzzle does not look thick, only the thickness of the bottom of the bowl.
You can also shoot a very small projectile.
There are many iron hoops on the barrel.
It should be an iron cannon.
It just happened to be a bronze cannon.
Bronze cannons are malleable and generally do not require iron hoops.
And this cannon was dug out of the sea and salvaged by him.
At that time, I was attacked by a shark and suddenly hit a reef.
I don’t know how I found this cannon in the crevice of the reef.
This pirate captain is also a modern man.
Naturally, he recognized the cannon as belonging to the Middle Ages.
In fact, it is not very powerful.
The key is the difference in gunpowder.
And gunpowder can’t be found.
He originally wanted to build a cannon on the ship.
It's just that there has been a lack of enough steel and gunpowder.
When he discovered the cannon at first, he didn't hold out much hope.
Just use it as a deterrent weapon.
In a real fight, what use would a cannon be?
Don’t forget that in modern century naval battles, a first-class battleship had hundreds of cannons!
And they are all large diameter.
In this way, it is not easy to sink the opponent's wooden ship.
It still depends on luck.
Or just slap him in the face.
It's so close that it's only a few dozen meters away, or more than a hundred meters away.
Both sides blasted fiercely.
Let’s see who is unlucky enough to die first.
But when he lit the fire casually, the cannon started to fire on its own.
Then he hit him.
The result surprised him.
This cannon only needs projectiles.
As for gunpowder, it is not needed.
Actually, this is of course impossible.
The thermal weapons in Mount and Blade also require gunpowder projectiles.
And the range is very far.
The most surprising thing is that the ballistic trajectory is actually a straight line!
Where is this bronze cannon?
Where is this medieval cannon?
This is clearly a 20th century flat-fire gun or anti-aircraft gun.
Anyway, it can be said to be direct firepower, hitting wherever you point.
And its range is also very long.
In short, it can hit wherever you see it.
It was precisely because he had this cannon.
He just dared to do something big once.
Go and challenge the so-called island raft.
In fact, no one knows why he summoned tens of thousands of pirates in bulk, a bunch of rubbish.
Actually, it was to cover his cannon.
In other words, just as Wen Rensheng thought, what he had to do was not to attack, but to defend.
So he wants to put himself in the middle.
There are still several sea routes to escape.
Don't let people block you.
On the outside, there are layers of pirate rafts surrounding him.
If an enemy comes, he can get early warning.
Then use your own direct-fire cannon to directly destroy the opponent.
Of course, although it is a straight line, it is not easy to aim.
Because this is at sea.
The raft is bumping.
Although his raft has been built into a pirate ship.
But bumps are inevitable.
Unless it is as big as an island raft, you won’t be afraid of bumps when anchored.
Wen Rensheng was absolutely right.
The pirate captain was thinking about himself from beginning to end.
At this moment.
He shouted at his subordinates, the wavered pirates:
“You idiots, the so-called city wall is just a piece of wood!”
"You can only look good, but you can't hit people!"
"Just watch, I have a cannon, what are you afraid of?"
That's what he said.
But at this time, someone still retorted: "Tieyan, but your cannon is just a medieval cannon. I heard that medieval cannons were very weak."
"Yes, at all. You can’t break the city gate, let alone the city wall, you can only hit the opening and hurt a few people.”
"That's right, hundreds of them are needed together to suppress the opponent."
"And it's better to attack the infantry, not the city wall. If you want to break the city wall, you need the later heavy artillery, and the cannonballs must have wine. Only when the jar is as big can it break the city wall." Someone else added.
He looked at everyone with disdain and began to prepare to test fire at the city wall.
Everyone looks at me and I look at you, but they don’t believe it.
“You guys wait, I’m going to knock down their tower!”
Everyone shook their heads.
We are still more than ten miles away from the island.
At this distance, even a modern gun requires an experienced gunner and a computerized fire control radar.
Because it is the sea now...
However, the next moment.
The pirate captain lit the fire directly.
Hit it with one shot.
There is a tower on the third floor of the city wall right in the middle.
I saw a sudden shaking on the tower, and several stones fell down.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this.
"Impossible, it's so far away, how did you hit it?"
"Yes, when we looked over, it was just a small dot, but you were able to hit it?"
In fact, this is At sea, the view is good, there is no obstruction, and you can see things ten miles away.
On land, the terrain is undulating and there are woods, which have long been lost to sight.
The island captain thought to himself, I wanted to hit the tallest one, but I hit someone else.
Sure enough, this cannon was not actually used on ships.
What a waste. It should be on land. That way we can hit whoever we point at.
It doesn’t work on a boat. One second you pointed it, and the next second the boat heaved.
Not allowed.
He read some information and said that naval artillery must learn to grasp the ups and downs of the ship, and fire at the highest or lowest point each time, because at this time the ship's posture is stable and the shooting parameters are relatively fixed.
I didn’t expect to hit it this time, which is pretty good.
“This is impossible!”
“Nearly ten miles away, I hit it with one shot. Boss, what kind of weapon is this?”
“What kind of artifact is this? That’s right.”
No one believes that this kind of artifact exists in this raft world.
"Haha, you can't believe it. This is one of my trump cards. The reason why I think we can capture this big island is because of it!" The pirate captain boosted morale with one shot.
“No matter how far away their defenses are, they can’t hit me!”
“And we can hit them!”
“You said they "Haha, how will the morale drop?"
Indeed.
At this moment, seeing this scene, the soldiers on the city wall were shocked.
At this moment, someone suddenly said:
"In this case, we are the defenders. We must prevent them from rushing out and destroying your cannon or ship."< br>
“Haha, don’t worry.”
The pirate captain has already been targeted.
"They have always trained on defense, and basically not much training on offense."
"Their island is also very big and moves slowly, but my ship is specially designed to enhance speed. It is very fast. Besides, this There are so many small rafts around to block opponents."
"In this case, I don't have to worry about them sneaking up on me."
"That's right. That's right, if the enemy's ship wants to come over, it must first pass through the small rafts around us, and it must first knock over the small rafts."
"Yes, you can use this cannon at this time. You can just blast over and sink whoever you see!" The pirate captain laughed when he heard this.
He knew that after seeing this, those people would be truly convinced.
Before, I just wanted to fish in troubled waters.
He may be used as a proxy at any time!
It suddenly dawned on me.
I saw that the morale of the pirates was suddenly boosted.
They have cannons like this, and they just need to slowly bombard the city wall.
Anyway, the logistics depend on raft fishing, so don’t worry.
Just stay for a few years.
There is no need to be afraid of being defeated by the enemy.
In this way, they can defeat their opponents smoothly.
Even directly destroy the opponent's morale until it collapses.
View from here.
This pirate captain is indeed a very cunning man.
Of course it can also be said to be very smart.
It is by no means comparable to ordinary people.
One cannon allowed him to turn around magnificently from the difficult offensive side.
He does not need to face so many rows of defensive measures just now. On the contrary, his opponent has to give up so many defensive measures with a headache.
Had to fight an offensive battle out of the city with the enemy at a disadvantage.
This is the strategic change brought about by weapons.
Just a cannon with an extremely long range turns a strategic advantage into a strategic disadvantage.
I had to choose to leave the city.
That means huge casualties.
When defending the city wall, an ordinary young man could lift a stone and kill a white-armored soldier, one of the strongest cold soldiers in modern times.
Triple armor will only kill you faster.
Because my body is not flexible, I cannot avoid the stone.
This is why you can use a traitor if you can. Elites will not attack the city from the beginning.
The civilians must be driven away to consume the stone and log reserves on the opposite side.
After seeing this, everyone sided with the pirate captain.
“What’s on the other side, do you see it!”
"Hurry up and surrender. We have this invincible and powerful general. How can you be my opponent?"
"Surrender now, and I can spare your lives."
" Yes, after all, it will be very troublesome for us to repair these walls after they are broken down."
Now they keep talking, as if one cannon has decided the outcome of this battle. .
At this moment, in their eyes, the island raft has become their property.
They were all very proud of themselves.
They were all there laughing at the wall of the island raft.
The joke is that they are a pile of junk and useless.
At this moment, the soldiers who were setting up defenses on the raft city wall of the island were already shocked.
Many people have just reacted.
"No, it's impossible. How could there be such a weapon that goes against nature?"
"Yes, someone is cooperating with the pirates, right?"
"It should be, someone is using it. "It exploded with dynamite."
Suddenly someone said: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, this is normal."
"Think about it, have we ever seen incredible things?" ”
"You're right. You'll know after thinking about it. It's true." Another person suddenly realized.
Everyone nodded.
Because they thought of a little red horse on their own island.
You can swim in the water and run on the sea.
You can even hunt sharks.
It is normal for the opponent to fire a cannon that has a long range and is very accurate.
Of course they didn't notice that it was a direct shot.
Otherwise, it would be even more terrifying.
Everyone nodded.
At this time, someone asked again:
"Then what should we do now?"
"It seems to me that we can't beat them."
"Yes, the other side has artillery and logistics, so we can slow down If we fight slowly, we can only be beaten passively."
"If we really want to attack, we don't have that much training."
"That's true."
"It seems that the city may be breached. Those pirates are very ferocious!"
"It seems to be true."
"Look at how powerful the other side is, and look at us. , Have you never killed anyone?”
“The defense is okay, but the attack is not good.”
Everyone was speechless.
Yes, in their eyes, the pirates who were killing everyone were indeed very powerful.
It seems now.
It has become difficult for them to easily defeat each other at a small cost.
I thought I could have a hearty defensive game.
It turns out that the pirates are not stupid either.
It's actually normal.
After all, these pirates are also modern people.
Just distorted modern people.
Then some people finally began to waver.
They looked around as if looking for their raft.
In their hearts, they have chosen to escape.
And more people choose to wait and see.
But those old people still think it doesn’t matter.
"As long as our island owner's father doesn't take action, we don't have to worry about losing."
Someone else was immediately relieved after hearing this.
He nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, you are right to wake us up with one word."
"After all, the island owner still has a rare skill that he has not yet used."
"The ability to summon your biological father."
So they won't be scared away so early.
For a time, the atmosphere became stable again.
There is no point in waiting for the island owner to call daddy, it will not be too late for them to run away.
Otherwise, the island raft won the battle, but they ran away.
There is only one outcome, expulsion.
Become a savage like those pirates.
Depend on God for food.
Relying on the sky to make a living is looked down upon.
The simplest thing is that in the marriage and love market, people who have relied on heaven for a living since ancient times have found it difficult to find a wife.
The best thing is the iron rice bowl.
Working for the imperial court.
I have to say, these people are really smart.
Just.
At the same time, those pirates don't know this skill yet.
They gradually learned that their side actually had an artifact cannon!
The morale of everyone was greatly boosted.
They continued to laugh wildly.
"Haha, let's see if you keep pretending and trying to pretend with us, what's the use of your city walls?"
"Have you seen our cannons? No matter how powerful your defenses are, But the range is not as far as ours, they are just waiting to be hit by us.”
That’s true.
The soldiers on the city wall looked helpless at the cannons ten miles away.
Because what the opponents say is true.
Their shooting range is not as far as the other's.
Can't hit the opponent at all.
You can only be beaten passively.
At this time, the second and third guns appeared one after another.
It just didn't hit accurately and hit the city wall.
Break some wooden fortifications.
"Do we have no choice but to escape?" someone said reluctantly.
“I don’t want to run away all the time.”
“I am really unwilling to do so.”
You must know that they worked hard to pass various eliminations, and then settled on this island.
