Every time a Siren warship sank, the pressure faced by the human fleet fighting at close range became smaller.
For his own future in this world, Wang Yu did not hesitate to provide fire support in the early stages.
The naval gun maintained a firing rate of one round every five seconds, and one salvo after another covered the sea where the Siren was.
Soon, the third Siren battleship was sunk under the coordinated attack of the Annapolis and the human fleet.
At this point, the tide of the battle reversed.
The human fleet was obviously inspired. They no longer fought and retreated, but turned around and set up a salvo angle, launching a comprehensive counterattack against the sirens.
Wang Yu saw that the comparison of advantages and disadvantages had changed, so he slowed down the pace of the attack.
He reduced the rate of fire from five seconds to one round to fifteen seconds.
Although he wanted to continue to fully support that fleet, he felt sorry for his own battleship.
At this time, the barrel is extremely hot. You can probably fry an egg on it and fry it directly.
At this time, the rate of fire must be slowed down to allow the barrel to cool down.
If we continue to fight at such a high intensity, the life of the main gun will definitely be greatly reduced.
Although when designed, this main gun can support emptying the entire ammunition depot at the maximum rate of fire without stopping, but the price is that it needs to be replaced with a brand new barrel after the shooting is completed...
Nothing has only advantages and no disadvantages. The cost of firing at full strength is the consumption of the main gun's service life.
In the previous battle, each of Annapolis's guns fired nearly a hundred rounds at its maximum rate of fire, knocking out half of the ammunition in the magazine, so for the sake of the future, there may be more During combat, Wang Yu also had to consider saving ammunition.
However, at this time, whether he reduces the rate of fire has no big impact on the result.
There is no shortage of the output of his battleship on the sea, and the human fleet is enough to deal with the remaining Siren battleships.
I saw the Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruiser and Brooklyn-class light cruiser shelling the last Siren heavy cruiser, and the Siren heavy cruiser's counterattack firepower was no longer as strong as before.
Therefore, this last heavy patrol of Sirens was quickly taken away by concentrated fire.
There are only six Siren destroyers left on the sea.
These destroyers finally moved to a suitable launching position and released a round of torpedoes towards the human fleet. However, the latter had already had early warning and began to turn in advance. In the end, none of the torpedoes hit.
Wang Yu had no intention of attacking the Siren destroyer.
Facing those little guys who are as slippery as loaches, the possibility of hitting them with long-distance attacks is not high. Of course, it doesn't mean that they can't hit, but the benefits of the attacks are not high.
Therefore, he would rather give up those victory results to the human fleet.
Although the siren crisis on the sea has not yet been resolved, in Wang Yu's view, the battle is over.
Siren destroyers are a very threatening ship type, but that is only if they are supported by large siren ships. Once all the big ships are dead and only destroyers are left, they may still be able to produce a certain deterrent, but they are destined not to be too powerful. serious.
Facing the Siren destroyers that were loading torpedo weapons, the human fleet had enough opportunities to kill them all.
The battleship ceased fire, and the main guns that had roared for a long time finally fell silent, and the smoke of gunpowder dispersed outward.
It took less than half an hour from the time the enemy ship entered the firing range, to opening fire with full force, and then to the end of the battle.
This is considered a short time in the naval battle against the Sirens. The main reason is that Annapolis has been outputting without interruption, and the number of Sirens is not large, and their positions are relatively straightforward.
In the previous world, a large-scale battle against the Sirens would often last for five or six hours before it was over.
The battleship slowed down, then began to turn its rudder, pointing the bow in the direction of the human fleet.
The hull of the ship tilted slightly outward due to the inertia when turning. The waterline on the inside has been lifted out of the water. The red paint on the bottom of the ship can be seen in the rippling blue waves. It was hit by a torpedo in the battle before coming to this world. Large holes formed.
Although Wang Yu no longer continued to fire, he still paid attention to the battle that was about to end over there.
The Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruiser was chasing the Siren destroyer, but the distance between them was very close. It only took a few seconds for the shells to hit, and the Siren destroyer was unable to effectively avoid it.
The small bodies of those destroyers could not withstand too much concentrated fire, so when Annapolis' turn was completed, two Siren destroyers had been sunk. Although the other four had begun to accelerate away, but in a short time It is difficult to escape within a certain period of time and will be effectively hit. It is expected that it will only be a matter of time before they are all destroyed.
Wang Yu turned away from the smoke-filled sea and turned his attention to the two main gun turrets at the front of the battleship.
At this time, the main turret has returned to its position and the muzzle has been leveled.
The hot metal cartridges have been piled up in the collection basket fixed in front of the turret. There are even many metal cartridges that have been piled up nowhere and have fallen on the deck. At a glance, a metal cartridge is formed on the side of the main gun. Tube pile.
These cartridges kept rolling with the ups and downs of the battleship, and the collision made a crisp sound.
Some rolled to the edge of the deck and were stopped by the guardrail.
Under normal circumstances, these completed cartridges will be recovered by the supply ship during replenishment or by the logistics department after returning to the port. In an emergency, these cartridges will be thrown directly into the seawater from the side. .
But now Wang Yu couldn't figure out what to do with this pile of things, so he could only let them pile up on the deck.
Anyway, it won’t affect the battle, so just leave it alone.
Next, we have to figure out how to communicate with people in this world.
He is a time traveler, so he is considered an alien to the people of this world; he is carrying a battleship, so he is a UFO; he also has to have a direct conversation with the other party, so he is in direct contact.
Well, with all the elements in place, this can be considered the third type of contact in the strict sense.
He began to make up reasonable excuses in his mind, hoping that it would sound a little more reasonable that he was in such a place and had no knowledge of what was going on in the world.
Wang Yu came up with one excuse after another in his mind, and then rejected them one after another.
It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense at all, it's all a logical flaw.
It would be okay if he traveled alone, he could disguise himself as various identities, but now that he is carrying a battleship, and this battleship has been seen, it is difficult to think of an excuse.
Wang Yu sadly discovered that he had no way to explain his origins other than telling the truth.
So he decided... to pretend to have amnesia.
Wow, it sounds like an old-fashioned technique.
But he wasn't joking. This seemed to be his only option at the moment besides confessing the fact of time travel.
When the time comes to contact the other party, he will insist that he knows nothing.
I don’t know where I came from or where I’m going, I don’t know where I am, and I don’t know what my identity is. The only memory I have left is to fight the Siren!
It's like a player who skipped the plot - I don't know who I am, I don't know where I am, the only thing I know is to kill everyone, oh, the guy opposite has a health bar, right~
Since there is a siren crisis in this world and humans are also fighting against the sirens, then I insist that I am here to fight the sirens, plus the previous battles where I helped each other, then even if I am not warmly welcomed, at least I will not be coldly treated. .
Wang Yu, the plan works!
