The joy of meeting again after a long separation only existed for a moment, and was soon overshadowed by the tense atmosphere.
At the moment, we are facing a formidable enemy, and we really have neither the mood nor the conditions to express our feelings to each other.
Qi Yu stared at Yin Tao affectionately, then looked at his son Qi Xiao, and then turned his attention to the battlefield.
Looking from a distance, I saw that all the enemy ships were standing there in shock, almost motionless. Obviously, they were shocked by the sudden incident just now.
】
And because their search target was living people on the water, they used muskets as their main weapon against the enemy. But the cannons were empty because they were useless.
Suddenly facing the enemy, the foreign army was at a loss.
Hurry!
Fill the shells and attack!
Seeing the enemy's actions, Qi Yu immediately shouted: "Hurry up and launch artillery bombardment to suppress the enemy with all your strength."
When Yin Tao heard this, she smiled and said, "My husband, that's wrong. Although artillery attacks are sharp and domineering, they are outdated tactics. If you want to truly defeat the enemy, you must use more sophisticated methods."
What?
Is shelling obsolete? When did this happen?
Qi Yu touched his forehead, feeling a little confused.
At this time, Qi Xiao suddenly interjected: "Dad, don't be confused. You will know what my aunt said after you take a look."
"Can you tell just by looking at it?" Qi Yu nodded when he heard this, and then said, "Okay, let me see your clever skills as a father."
Qi Xiao immediately patted his chest and replied: "You, just wait and see!"
Hearing this, Qi Yu became more interested and said, "Whatever skills my son has, just show them!"
Seeing the father and son singing together, the emperor suddenly felt a sense of loneliness in his heart.
He is the emperor, but he has no sense of existence. It really hurts his self-esteem.
What's going on, you guys have to come over and see me!
Especially Brother Qi Xiao, we are very close to each other, both in public and private matters, you can't turn a blind eye!
As everyone knows, Young Master Qi is currently eager to express himself, so how can he have time to take into account his feelings?
It can be seen that the emperor was not very happy.
However, only a few breaths passed before the emperor's attention was attracted by a strange phenomenon.
See!
With a wave of Qi Xiao's hand, several fuses were ignited. From the visual effect, it was no different from the firing of a cannon. but!
What is connected to the lead is not a traditional gun barrel, but an unknown object similar to a large bamboo shoot.
Looking further into the details, the 'bamboo shoot' is fixed on a very delicate steel frame, which feels both novel and strange.
Well...keep watching.
After the fuse burned out, there was a sudden "whoosh" scream, and the "big bamboo shoot" flew out like a monkey in the sky.
In the vast night sky, a beautiful arc was drawn, just like the festive fireworks in the market.
However, this firework did not last long, and it bloomed in just one breath.
The whole process only takes place in an instant and can be described as a flash in the pan.
Next, with a piercing loud noise and a flash of light in the blink of an eye, a huge enemy ship collapsed and sank.
This... what kind of operation is this?
Faced with this situation, Li Hongyu was dumbfounded and shocked beyond words.
As for the dissatisfaction that had been brewing just now, it had long since dissipated, with not even the slightest remnant left.
The boss is the boss, as domineering as ever.
After many years, this has not changed at all, it is still a familiar feeling and a familiar taste.
What can be said besides admiration?
If it weren't for the fact that he was in a public place, the emperor would have wanted to take the opportunity to flatter Qi Xiao and regain the sense of communication he had before.
However, before complimenting, one thing needs to be clarified.
That is, what is the 'big bamboo shoot' that was launched just now?
This object was beyond Li Hongyu's cognition.
Of course, one thing is certain, this is 100% a new type of weapon developed in secret.
Sure enough, in Qi Yu's next words, the emperor heard the relevant answer.
"I really didn't expect that the development of rockets would be successful. Haha... God bless me Qiongzhou, God bless me China!"
"With this artifact in hand, we can be invincible!"
It can be seen from these words that Qi Yu did not hesitate to praise his son's brilliant methods and directly gave the highest praise.
Indeed, a heartfelt compliment.
Facts are facts.
In Qi Yu's view, the launch of rockets is definitely an epoch-making product.
It not only widened the equipment generation gap with enemy countries, but also greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the Qiong Army.
Especially the second point is enough to be called a milestone.
This is not an exaggeration, but a matter of fact.
There are some differences between rockets and artillery shells, which are essentially different. The former has a very high heat utilization rate, so it has a faster speed, a longer range, and a stronger overall destructive power.
On the other hand, look at the latter.
Its loading and aiming are time-consuming, and its efficiency is obviously insufficient.
In addition, the cooling of the barrel will take a certain amount of time. Therefore, these factors greatly affect the oppressiveness of the attack.
This is not to mention the fatal weakness caused by its heavy weight and difficulty in moving.
Generally speaking, the attack power of rockets is completely higher than a level.
The only fly in the ointment is that this high-speed driving attack weapon is difficult to control the sight. As long as there is a slight error, it will be thousands of miles away.
However, judging from the results just presented, it seems that this problem has been overcome.
At the very least, the attack was not outrageous.
Seeing his father smiling, Qi Xiao was also greatly encouraged. He couldn't help but start his performance immediately.
Whoosh whoosh!
After several screams, more than a dozen rockets were launched into the air, and more than half of them hit their targets.
Faced with such a high-efficiency attack, the foreign army was stunned.
They almost tried to break their heads, but still couldn't figure out what kind of new weapon this was.
As far as the current battlefield is concerned, the gap is still very large.
It is not appropriate to compare them.
The total number of warships rushed by Yin Tao was only a dozen, while the foreign ships numbered hundreds. The disparity was not small.
However, Qiongjun relied on oppressive attacks to gain the upper hand. They even showed signs of eating each other alive.
Mastering the stick, but aiming for the yard!
Both sides make judgments!
The foreign troops were not stupid. Seeing that they were being restrained everywhere, they had the idea of retreating.
And this move is in line with Qiong Jun's interests.
At the moment, saving people is the most important thing. There is really no need to worry too much. Don't mess around if you can.
Therefore, they formulated a strategy not to catch up.
Since both sides had the same ideas, the war was quickly calmed down.
Afterwards, Qi Yu ordered: Search for the fallen soldiers as soon as possible, and then turned to advance with the large forces.
