"Let the ninja team prepare to attack." Gaara said: "After observing the specific location of the ghost ship, prepare to attack."

Defeat them completely!

"bang bang bang~"

Several dull sounds came from behind the position, and several red cannonballs pierced the sky and landed in the dark night in the distance.

"Clap~Clap~Clap~"

As the flares exploded in the distance, it was like a few small suns appeared in the sky, illuminating the originally dark sea.

"that is!!!"

Gaara was shocked!

Is that a ghost ship? !

first!For the first time, the entire ghost ship was revealed to Gaara's eyes.

The ship was much bigger than he had imagined!

and...

Not worth a boat? !

Where the flare illuminated there were at least three such ships lying across the horizon.

"What is that?" Gaara suddenly noticed rows of unknown objects moving twice on the side of the ship, followed by thick white smoke.

A few seconds later Gaara heard the sound of "dong dong dong~".

This sound is...

"Bombardment!"

I didn’t expect that the ship that came from nowhere would actually move the cannon onto the ship!

"Turn off the lights! Take cover!"

Gaara raised his hand and quickly built a long sand wall with sand for defense.

However...

However, this was of no use as the cannonballs easily tore apart Gaara's sand defense.

The shell easily hit the sand wall and landed on the position behind the sand wall.

but...

Nothing happened.

"Is it a solid bullet?"

Gaara looked at the cannonballs a little strangely. He didn't know why the other party still used solid bullets even though they had the ability to manufacture cannons and install them on ships.

But now he doesn't have time to worry so much.

"Counterattack! Order the artillery positions to fire!"

"Hit me hard!"

Chapter 372 Chapter 59 Attack!

A battle never imagined.

Artillery battle!

Junko never thought that the first artillery battle in the ninja world did not occur on the battlefield between the Kingdom of Fire and other countries, but on the coastline of the Kingdom of Wind.

Artillery battles, especially when artillery shells cross a parabola and accurately land at the predetermined location, are not something that just a few people can play.

This requires very high quality for an army.

Otherwise, just communication between the forward observation post and the rear artillery position would be a problem.

It can be said that the country of wind is the best student to learn the reforms of the country of fire, but students who learn well may not be able to quickly apply it in actual combat.

Because there is a rather funny question in the middle.

That's the teacher's technique...

In fact, it’s not too high!

Junko personally doesn't know much about military construction and reform.She could only give guidance to the Fire Nation's army in a general direction.

Specific military reforms also need to rely on the military talents of the Fire Nation itself.

Fortunately, the establishment of the Fire Nation's military academy allows the Fire Nation to obtain more talents of this type, and the Fire Nation's military academy will naturally teach artillery tactics.

But the problem is that although there are a lot of teaching materials obtained by Junko.

But in actual use, this is the first time for a big girl from the Fire Country to get on the sedan chair, and the Fire Country's own army is also constantly exploring.

This is even more true in the Kingdom of Wind.

When the artillerymen of the Kingdom of Wind received this order, they were a little dumbfounded.

They were able to attack quickly before because they were attacking preset targets. They had completed a series of preparations such as calibration very early today.

And now they are suddenly asked to attack a target at sea, a target that is still outside the preset target.

This is really difficult.

But since this is Feng Ying's order, there is nothing we can do!

The first true artillery battle in the history of the ninja world began.

Gaara never thought that what he had just envisioned in his mind would become a reality so quickly, and that his sand defense would become so vulnerable under the attack of artillery.

It was torn to pieces in minutes.

If the other party hadn't used solid bullets, I'm afraid there would have been serious casualties on the Wind Kingdom's position.

But it shouldn't collapse quickly.

Gaara paid attention to every move of the soldiers in the position.

Although everyone looked nervous, most of them hugged their guns tightly and hid in the trenches.Although the performance in the first round of battle was indeed unsatisfactory.

But now they are much calmer, and most people are very calm.

Those boring training and studies day after day have played a good role at this time.

At least in this seemingly crisis situation, these soldiers can still maintain their composure.

And Gaara also noticed a strange phenomenon, that is, the soldiers didn't seem to need his sand defense very much.They realized that the dug trenches could withstand these shells better than his sand defenses.

"Boom~"

With the sound coming from behind the position, the counterattack from the Kingdom of Wind began.

Meteors streaked across the sky and landed on the sea in the distance.

"Hey! It's all fucked up!"

Kankuro climbed to the highest point. Although it was very dangerous, it was of great reference significance to him. This was the first time for artillery fire.

How could he hide in the trenches like an ordinary soldier?

Kankuro quickly climbed up the searchlight observation tower and looked at several battleships on the sea.

None of the cannonballs that streaked across the sky fell to the sea level, and apart from stirring up water jets, they did not cause any substantial damage to the battleship.

'As expected, it is difficult to achieve the first hit. 'Kankuro thought in his mind.

His puppets are also equipped with artillery, and he himself has tried to use curved trajectories for such long-distance fire delivery.

It is not easy to hit the target with this kind of long-distance firepower delivery.

He himself also needs to try a few more times to achieve it.

No one could be seen on the battleships on the sea. They seemed not to realize the seriousness of the problem. When the shells fell on the sea level in front of them, they had no idea what was happening.

Maybe they knew, maybe they were just laughing at how the enemy's firepower was wasted here.

Then...

Then there is nothing then.

The impact point of the artillery shells became closer and closer each time, and finally in the latest round of shelling, the artillery shells crossed the three warships and landed on the sea level on the other side of them.

"Bang! Okay! It's a straddle shot!"

Kankuro couldn't help but get excited as he clapped his hands.

He knows what cross-shooting is!

This means that after the first five rounds of calibration, the sixth round will launch a cross-fire, which means that the seventh or eighth round of bombardment can hit those warships at sea.

Gaara removed his sand defense.

He glanced at the position, which had almost no damage.

'Sure enough, the killing effect of solid bullets without explosive effect on personnel is really limited. '

'The trenches were very effective in protecting against artillery fire. '

It can even be said to be quite good. The opponent's cannonballs hitting the ground have no effect except stirring up the soil.The biggest effect of this solid bullet is just to leave a not very deep groove.

And this depth does not even touch the heads of the soldiers hiding in the trenches.

Gaara chose to concentrate the sand to lift himself up, so that he could see the battle more clearly.

Round after round of cannonballs streaked across the sky and landed on the sea level.

When the sixth round of shelling hit a straddle, the seventh round of shells finally lived up to expectations, blooming beautiful and dazzling sparks on these three battleships!

'Nothing happened? '

Gaara was a little surprised when he looked at the battleship.

Although one shot after another was seen hitting the three warships, it only caused a lot of black spots on the three warships.

Overall it still looks intact.

You can even continue to fire back.

If Gaara had Junko's knowledge, he would definitely know the reason for this.

Because the artillery is not equipped with armor-piercing projectiles.

Although there are armor-piercing bullets in the ninja world, they are not the mainstream ammunition for artillery.The vast majority of artillery units still use high-explosive ammunition.

High-explosive bombs that lack armor-piercing capabilities can only damage fragile external facilities on the battleship.

Although this ship looks strange, it is also a real iron-clad battleship.

It cannot be easily penetrated by high-explosive bombs.

but...

However, it is impossible to penetrate through a direct hit, but this is not necessarily the case for shells that explode in the nearby sea.

Because the killing principle is different, the shells exploded below the waterline and quickly caused some structural damage to the battleship.

"Escape?!"

Gaara suddenly noticed that the three ships were emitting black smoke. What did this mean?Was there a fire in a key area after being hit?

No, not long after the black smoke came out, the three ships started to move.

Looks like he's about to run away!

"Kankuro!" Gaara shouted, and he immediately drove the sand forward.

With both hands raised, the beach became agitated. Countless fools began to push forward crazily, forcibly raising the beach and extending it tens of meters forward.

"learn!"

Kankuro jumped down from the observation deck, waved his hands left and right, and a strange puppet appeared here.

The newest puppet from Konoha.

If there is any difference compared with the previous generation, it is that this puppet does not look like a traditional puppet.Unlike traditional wooden puppets.

These three puppets are all made of steel.
