Chapter 614: Survival After The Disaster, How To Deal With The Seaspout [Please Subscribe, Please Su
If at this moment, someone is observing from high altitude on the sea.
Then you can see that at this moment there are six seaspouts with a thickness of more than ten feet, connected to the sky above and the sea below. At the same time, they are also carrying thick cumulonimbus clouds, pressing horizontally from east to west, seemingly slowly but quickly. Pass.
The sea surface that the seaspout passed through was like hell, with turbulent waves, purple thunder and lightning kept falling on the sea surface, and puffs of white smoke rose up.
The vortex in the center of the seaspout is like a death zone, destroying everything it passes along the way.
Whether it is on the sea surface or in the sea water, everything is stirred up until it is broken, and finally it is rolled up into the sky.
Then accompanied by a violent storm, it poured down from thousands of feet high in the sky!!!
What is a natural disaster at sea?!!
This is called a natural disaster at sea!!!
Once faced with such a natural disaster at sea, even the more than 200,000 soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, the most powerful navy in the world, would only end up with the entire army annihilated and dead without any body parts!!!
Therefore, in order to avoid horrific natural disasters such as seaspouts, the ships of the Ming Navy fleet are all heading towards the original right direction, that is, to the north!!!
In the middle and lower cabins of each ship, there are sailor Liwang who are responsible for pedaling propellers and hand-cranking propellers.
Everyone's face was red, and they tried their best to suck milk, accelerating, accelerating, accelerating again!!!
The pedals under their feet were almost smoking, and the paddles in their hands were almost broken by them.
Once one of the sailor wrestlers' hands and feet became exhausted, he fell to the ground due to cramps.
Immediately, there will be another sailor warrior waiting aside to seamlessly relay, continuing to step on the pedals crazily, or rocking the hand oar.
Keeping heading north, I don't know whether it was dozens of miles or hundreds of miles.
It wasn't until they completely sailed out of the area covered by the seaspouts that the entire Daming Navy fleet slowly slowed down.
Of course, it won’t work if we don’t slow down.
In order to quickly get out of the area covered by the seaspouts, all sailors are responsible for pedaling propellers and hand-cranking oars.
Now all 647 are exhausted, and all of them have cramps in their hands or twitching feet.
On the deck of the Hongwu, whether it was Yan Changqing, King Zhu Di of Yan, Tang He, Duke of Xin, or other city generals and kings.
At this moment, everyone was lying on the deck soaked to the skin, breathing heavily.
Although they had not encountered the impact of the core area of the seaspout swarm head-on before, they did not avoid the wave and storm attack in the edge area of the seaspout swarm.
Under the influence of the huge waves and storms caused by the seaspouts, it was impossible for them to stand firmly on the deck.
Under such circumstances, lying down on the deck and hugging the surrounding hull is the safest and safest way.
After an unknown period of time, King Yan Zhu Di, who was lying on his back on the deck, suddenly laughed loudly:
"Hahaha.........it hurts!!! It feels so good!!!"
Yan Changqing on the side also laughed when he heard the laughter.
On the other side, Duke Xin Guo Tang He also looked up to the sky and laughed heartily.
This laughter seemed to be contagious. One after another, the navy officers also started laughing unscrupulously.
This laughter was not only congratulating that he and others survived the catastrophe, but also laughing at the terrible natural disasters and seaspouts at sea.
What about natural disasters at sea?!!
Still didn’t let them die in the sea!!!
From now on, they can also brag to the outside world that they are men who have faced natural disasters at sea!!!
After a while, Yan Changqing stood up unsteadily from the deck.
King Zhu Di of Yan, Duke Tang He of Xin State, and a group of naval officers also stood up from the deck one after another.
Yan Changqing looked at the group of seaspouts that were dozens or hundreds of miles away from them, and then glanced at Yan King Zhu Di beside him, and said with a smile:
"I don't know whether His Highness Prince Yan is lucky or not. He encountered a natural disaster like a seaspout on his first trip to sea!!!"
It turns out (bhaa) that he took Yan King Zhu Di out to sea, and just let Yan King Zhu Di experience the princely process that Prince Zhu Biao, Qin King Zhu Di, and Jin King Zhu Fan had all experienced.
As a result, I never expected that I would encounter a group of seaspouts at this time!!!
Normally, if you want to generate a seaspout group.
First, the air must have high temperature and high humidity.
The temperature reflects the amount of thermal energy. When air humidity is high, once condensation occurs, a large amount of latent heat is released, which will become kinetic energy and potential energy.
Second, there must be strong cumulonimbus clouds.
Cumulonimbus clouds are the product of strong convection and can easily form vortex rings during strong convective motion.
Third, the shear between the updraft and downdraft is short and large.
This means that the two airflow directions are opposite, and their respective speeds must be large, so that strong shear can be formed.
Only when these three conditions are met can a group of seaspouts be naturally generated.
And now it is the end of December in winter. Normally, the conditions for generating seaspout swarms should not be fully met.
[It is probably a group of seaspouts caused by a typhoon or hurricane!!!]
Yan Changqing secretly guessed the reason for the appearance of the seaspout swarm. As for whether the seaspout swarm was actually caused by a typhoon or hurricane, Yan Changqing was not sure.
After all, the climate and air pressure at sea change too quickly and unpredictably.
King Yan Zhu Di picked off the crabs that fell on him and looked at the group of seaspouts on the sea in the distance that had not stopped and continued to sweep forward. He said with a wanton look:
“Of course I’m lucky!!!”
"If you were unlucky, how could you see such a horrific natural disaster at sea for the first time when you go to sea?!!"
"If you were unlucky, how could you escape from such a terrifying natural disaster at sea?!!"
"Gu's luck is so great!!!"
Encountering a group of seaspouts and successfully escaping at the same time, such a life experience is so legendary!!!
He doesn’t think this is a bad thing!!!
On the other side, after giving the order and asking a group of soldiers of the Ming Navy to count their losses, Tang He, the Duke of Xin, also came over and stood beside the two of them.
Then, Xin Guo Gong Tang He also turned his head and looked at the seaspouts on the distant sea, with a hint of erudition in his eyes:
"If Ban Heng's judgment hadn't been accurate, I'm afraid that everything would have fallen into its hands this time!!!"
Then Xin Guogong Tang He turned his head and looked at Yan Changqing curiously and asked:
"Can all seaspouts be avoided in this way?!!"
As the current commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty Navy, after the navy fleet was safe, the first thing he thought of was what should he do if he encountered such a seaspout again next time?!
Can it be dealt with in the same way?!!
Yan Changqing looked at Xin Guogong Tang He and nodded:
"The moving path of a seaspout is generally straight and vertically downward!!!"
"But sometimes because the wind above is stronger than the wind on the ground, its upper part will tilt in the direction of the airflow!!!"
"Generally, you can judge the path it moves based on its tilt direction, and take timely measures to avoid it, so you can avoid being harmed!!!"
"So when facing a seaspout, don't panic, and don't think that if your ship is in front of the seaspout, you can run faster than the seaspout!!!"
"Because the moving speed of a seaspout is about a hundred miles per hour on average!!!
"There is currently no ship that can sail faster than a seaspout!!!"
"Similarly, there is currently no ship that can withstand the sweeping and tearing force brought by seaspouts!!!"
"Walking in the same direction as the seaspout group will lead to death!!!"
Tang He, the Duke of Xin Guo, bowed to Yan Changqing to show that he had learned and remembered it.
This is very important to the Ming Dynasty Navy, important enough to save the lives of hundreds of thousands of Ming Navy soldiers at some point in the future!!!
The Yan King Zhu Di on the side withdrew his gaze towards the seaspout group. He recalled the previous orders given by Yan Changqing and Xin Guogong Tang He, and couldn't help but asked curiously:
"What do you mean by 'level five' and 'advance four' before?!!"
During the previous voyage, he had never heard the Ming Navy deliver such an order.
On the side, Xin Guogong Tang He heard this and immediately explained to King Yan Zhu Di the different levels of incident response represented by "Level Five".
After Xin Guogong Tanghe explained the meaning of "level five", Yan Changqing also went on to explain the meaning of "advance four":
"Among the ships of the Ming Navy, the forward level, or sailing speed level, is divided into four levels!!!"
"The first level, which is forward one, is full sail."
"The second level, that is, forward two, is based on full sail and then full spiral."
"The third level, that is, advance three, is based on full sail and full spiral, and then full lottery."
"The fourth level, that is, forward four, is based on full sail, full screw, full propeller, and then full rear bombardment.
"Basically, once Forward Four is shouted, it means that the Ming Navy fleet must quickly escape from a dangerous area as quickly as possible!!!"
"They even did not hesitate to continuously bombard the ship backwards, so as to use the reaction force brought by the backward bombardment to speed up the ship's sailing speed!!!"
"Of course, if you encounter a seaspout group, shelling backwards has another theoretical effect."
"That is, shelling can destroy the air pressure of the surrounding atmosphere to a certain extent, thereby affecting the movement of up and down airflows.
"It is possible to prevent or even destroy the formation of seaspout groups!!!"
"However, this function is only theoretical. The current power of the artillery is still too small, and it is basically impossible to destroy the formation of the seaspout group."
"So you just need to know the theoretical effect of this. Don't think about using artillery to destroy the seaspout group. That will only make you die faster!!!"
Xin Guo Gong Tang He and Yan King Zhu Di both nodded when they heard this. They were not stupid. Of course, they would avoid horrific natural disasters like seaspouts as soon as they encountered them.
Unless there is no way to avoid it, there is no way to escape, and it is already a dead end, they may use shelling to attack the seaspout group to see if they can survive in a desperate situation.
After seeing that Tang He, Duke of Xin, and Zhu Di, King of Yan, both listened, Yan Changqing showed a smile on his face and said:
"Although it is very dangerous to encounter a group of seaspouts, the danger also represents a great harvest!!!"
"A group of seaspouts will roll various marine creatures in the sea from the bottom to the upper level, or from the upper level to high altitude, and finally fall down!!!"
"At this time, as long as you trawl far behind the group of seaspouts, you can harvest a large amount of seafood!!!"
Hearing Yan Changqing's words, Duke Xin Guohe and King Yan Zhu Di also had smiles on their faces.
They risked encountering a swarm of seaspouts and went out to sea just for these seafood!!!
In a sense, this can be regarded as "nothing can be found even after wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it."
Thinking of this, Duke Xin immediately ordered the fleets of the Ming Dynasty to turn around again and begin to slowly sail towards the area they originally left.
