God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Without the support of the adaptive loop system, both fleets returned to their most basic state.

In this state, the vector projector, with its attack capabilities pushed to the limit, demonstrated the strength and impact power envisioned by the designers.

Extremely fast attack speed that is difficult to dodge, ultra-long-range cross-horizon strike capability, and stability brought by the ship spirit-assisted angle calculation and the stabilizing ocean magic.

These factors combined resulted in a swift, accurate, and ruthless strike.

The spears that were fired pierced the Kushan ships, creating holes several meters, or even more than ten meters, in their path.

Any smaller vessel could be snapped in half and sunk instantly into the ocean.

Even slightly larger ships would cause injury from a mere glancing blow, or death from a direct hit.

The only difference was the speed of death, depending on the size of the ship.

It can be said that, with both sides returning to the essence of warships, the Han Empire's "Ninghai-class" steel warships demonstrated the naval dominance and deterrent power that steel warships should possess.

Whether it's a long-range vectoring projectile or a steel hull used for close-range ramming, it's simply something that wooden warships cannot contend with.

Knowing that time was running out, Moncombu immediately issued an order to all 'Ninghai-class' warships to attack the Kushan navy's warships at close range, taking down as many as possible.

The more Kushan navy ships Cecislian destroys, the more limited its combat power will be, even if it re-establishes the adaptive cycle system.

Meanwhile, Zhou Yu, who commanded the southern navy, noticed the change in the concentration of the surrounding spiritual energy after launching a long-range attack before the adaptive cycle core system collapsed.

Sensing this change, Zhou Yu's expression instantly worsened.

Such an accident on the battlefield cannot be treated as an accident. Moreover, since the accident was caused by the other side, how can it be treated as an accident?
"Notify the fleet to head north at full speed, and prepare for internal coordination and communication." Before Gan Ning could inquire about what was happening at the front, Zhou Yu decisively issued the order, directing all warships to head north. During this process, the warships would utilize their stored cloud energy to employ acceleration techniques, thus reaching the battlefield more quickly.

After making these arrangements, Zhou Yu looked north with some worry in his eyes, then turned to look at Gan Ning, waiting for Gan Ning's reply.

Upon seeing Zhou Yu's orders and actions, Gan Ning immediately sent a message inquiring about what was happening on the front lines and what they needed to do.

However, after sending the message, he received no reply, which made Gan Ning's heart sink.

The sudden collapse of the adaptive loop system, coupled with the loss of contact with the frontline environment, naturally led to the thought of a less than ideal situation.

However, as the Grand Admiral of the Navy, no matter how complicated his feelings were, Gan Ning knew that he had to keep his composure in order to maintain the current battle situation.

Seeing that Gan Ning did not reply, Zhou Yu's heart sank. He then mobilized his mental energy without hesitation to change the direction of the wind and sea, further increasing the speed of the fleet.

This state of affairs didn't last long. After completing the emergency orders, Meng Kangbu finally found time to reply to Gan Ning. Upon receiving the reply, Gan Ning instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression softened considerably.

"The adaptive cycles of both sides have collapsed, and a chaotic battle has begun. However, according to Old Meng's description, Cecislian may still have a backup plan. We need to be cautious and careful when entering the battlefield later..." Gan Ning quickly recounted the information given from the front-line battlefield, which reassured Zhou Yu.

Anyone watching the warship as it sails along, with its bow occasionally tilting up, would know that the warship's speed is definitely not low, and it also reflects Zhou Yu's thoughts and feelings at this moment.

"Cesislian's backup plan?" He finally nodded calmly, regaining his previous refined demeanor, but the fleet's speed did not decrease at all, maintaining a high-speed operation.

The young, vigorous, and physically strong Zhou Yu had enough physical and mental strength to support this level of mental and physical exertion.

Youth was Zhou Yu's greatest asset and the key to his advantage when he clashed with Cecilie.

After losing the amplification effect of the high concentration of heaven and earth essence, the army units located on the land of Qiongzhou have basically lost their ability to provide support.

Huang Gai suddenly felt a headache when he saw the group of archers behind him.

It didn't seem like a big deal when it was used, but after this battle, the Kushan navy was certainly on guard, and it would be virtually impossible to gain an advantage in this way again.

This means that these archers will most likely need to be retrained and converted to other talents.

Archers with the Charge ability do have decent attack power, but their attack speed is far inferior, and ultimately, they are only single-talent archers, making the risk too high.

In terms of attack power and attack density, Huang Gai personally feels that attack density might be more important.

On the one hand, the country was not short of arrows at the time, and on the other hand, it was due to the effect of the talent. Because of the special nature of a single talent, it was difficult to create an absolute gap with other talents.

Compared to pure attack power, the effect of sheer numbers is not only more effective in the eyes of the public, but also more powerful in practice.

The vast Kushan navy was unable to equip all its soldiers with full armor; in this respect alone, numbers were more useful than offensive power.

Even if we increase our attack power by that little bit, we still can't penetrate the opponent's armor protection. We can only rely on the weak points to strike and damage them. In that case, wouldn't having more of them mean a greater chance of success?
Precision is something that comes naturally to Jiang Dong; he doesn't even need any extra training.

As for the training costs, that's not something Huang Gai needs to worry about.

What they need to do now is to regroup their troops to avoid retaliatory counterattacks.

Although they were on land and had no idea where the enemy's counterattack was coming from, since their fate had been decided, they simply had to obey.

Taishi Ci, who was also commanding the army, glanced at the Wudang Legion behind him, forced himself to support his exhausted body, and led the army to further disperse and move away from the coastline.

Such an attack, exceeding all limits, would be difficult even for Taishi Ci, a powerhouse at the Breaking Realm level, to control—this kind of天地精气 (heaven and earth essence) that was completely beyond his comprehension. (End of this chapter)
