Chapter 801 A Scene Like Hell 1
Chapter 801 A Scene Like Hell 1
When the Daqin Fleet approached the coast of India, it was ready for battle.
At this moment, under Meng Tian's arrangement, all the flagship warships lined up, facing the fleet of the Nanda Dynasty.
On both sides of the deck of the Daqin Fleet, heavy guns with extremely large calibers were placed.
These heavy artillery that can strike from a long distance will be the enemy's nightmare in naval warfare.
If the opponent does not have the same level of weapons, once they fight, they will inevitably become the target of massacre.
This is for sure, Meng Tian's purpose this time is to resolve this first war conflict with the fastest and fiercest offensive.
Therefore, Meng Tian directly used the maximum firepower.
As long as the fleet of the Nanda Dynasty comes within range, what greets them is the baptism of giant cannons.
King Nanda has also seen the heavy artillery on these decks, but he has not seen the power of these heavy artillery with his own eyes.
In his opinion, this time the battle is going to be hand-to-hand for both sides.
So he would think that this war will cause unnecessary sacrifices for both sides.
But in reality, he couldn't predict it at all.
The Indian army began to move in the sea, and the speed was getting faster and faster.
For them, Daqin is a naked invader, and this has already hit their doorstep. If they don't take the initiative to attack, they will be ridiculed, and the people in the country will not agree.
So after getting ready, the generals of the Nanda Dynasty couldn't wait to attack first.
Their actions were all within Meng Tian's expectations.
So Meng Tian lined up the fleet and waited for their arrival.
After a while, the Indian fleet pressed up on a large scale, and finally entered the range of the Daqin gunboat.
At this time, all the generals on the Daqin flagship tightly held the command sabers in their hands.
Everyone in Daqin, whether they were generals or soldiers, was very excited.
Because the heavy artillery on these flagships, not to mention the enemy, even they themselves don't know how powerful they are.
In the past training, although experiments were carried out, those were just exercises after all, not a real contest with the opponent.
No one has ever seen such a scene of hundreds of giant cannons bombarding at the same time.
They also expected in their hearts how much surprises such a large-scale artillery fire could bring to their opponents.
All the Daqin soldiers on the flagship would look at Meng Tian who was standing proudly on the main ship from time to time, and the order to attack had not yet been issued.
All the commanders are already gearing up, just waiting for Meng Tian to give an order, they will tear their opponents to pieces.
Seeing the enemy getting closer and closer, Meng Tian finally moved. He waved his hand lightly, and the messenger who had been waiting for a long time immediately waved the big flag in his hand.
The signal of the attack spread throughout the entire Great Qin Fleet.
"fire!"
"fire!"
As soon as Meng Tian's order was issued, the commanders of all the flagships of Daqin impatiently gave the order to fire.
The two words of firing for a while were deafening.
Not only the commanders on the gunboat, but also all the gunners responsible for operating the heavy artillery.
They have also long been impatient, just waiting for the final order to be issued.
When the word of firing reached their ears, they seemed to be more excited than the cannon in front of them.
All the shells for the first round of firing had already been prepared, and the two soldiers who were responsible for filling the shells had already exploded the shells ready to be loaded.
The gunner who ignited the fire directly ignited the fuse immediately after hearing the word fire.
After a short period of burning, the fuse burned out, and even more deafening gunfire sounded from the gunboats of all Tianqin in Daqin at the same time.
The heavy artillery spouted flames, and the gunpowder shells rushed towards the enemy formation in front of them.
The army of the Nanda Dynasty did not realize what had happened at the moment.
But they also saw a row of black things flying out of Daqin's fleet.
In their view, this is probably a long-range attack similar to a catapult.
This kind of attack was also expected by them, although being directly hit by a stone throw would cause a very large amount of damage.
But they have already prepared for it, so naturally they are not afraid.
All the soldiers of the Nanda Dynasty found their corners and erected their shields for defense.
The Nanda Dynasty had done some precautions against catapult attacks on the battleships that opened the way at the front.
It was within their expectation that Daqin's army would use such an attack method.
After all, in the last battle, they had already seen that the soldiers of Daqin were not good at melee combat.
If you are not good at close combat, you can only strengthen the long-range attack, just like the trap they set up last time.
The more they behave like this, the weaker they are.
None of the commanders of the Nanda Dynasty was afraid of such an attack, so they faced it calmly and went straight to meet it.
Moments later, the first round of shells mixed with gunpowder flew into the fleet of the Nanda Dynasty.
When these black shells hit the fleet of the Nanda Dynasty, each shell exploded violently.
The scope is wide, covering a radius of ten feet.
Within this ten feet, all soldiers, no matter whether you are holding a shield or not taking any protective measures.
Without exception, Yu Bo was affected by the explosion. If they were lucky, they only suffered a little skin trauma. If they were unlucky, they died immediately.
Those who were closer to the shells were directly blown to pieces.
In addition, the heavy artillery attack also brought irreparable losses to the warships of the Nanda Dynasty.
Such a dense artillery attack hit these ordinary wooden boats head-on, and the result can be imagined.
Immediately after the explosion, the raging fire caused by the explosion began to burn on the battleship.
A group of people had been killed and wounded during the explosion, and the fire that started took away the lives of countless soldiers of the Nanda Dynasty.
Although it is said to be above the sea, such a rapid fire cannot be stopped immediately.
Looking at the stumped limbs and broken arms all over the ground, and the raging fire, all the soldiers of the Nanda Dynasty who were still alive took a deep breath.
I thought it was just an ordinary stone throwing attack, but I didn't expect it to have such terrifying power.
At this moment, their inner fear reached the extreme. They couldn't figure out why Daqin possessed such a terrifying weapon.
This scene of moving from hell is beyond their cognition.
However, Daqin did not give them a chance to think.
After the first round of shelling, the second and third rounds of shells came one after another.
They couldn't imagine why Daqin possessed such a terrifying weapon.
But these are no longer important to the people of the Nanda Dynasty. The most important thing now is how to survive.
