Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 342 Self Shaking Charge

On the sea nearly a hundred miles north of the three islands south of Kagoshima Bay, the Daming Navy and the Satsuma Navy Navy had already met head-on.

Nearly [-] warships from both sides almost filled the sea with a radius of tens of miles, and a big battle was about to break out.

This will be a sea battle enough to be recorded in the annals of history, because the number of warships on both sides is too many to count.

At least, neither side can count how many warships are on the opposite side.

Not only are the warships of the Daming Navy innumerable for the Satsuma Navy, but the Daming Navy also has countless warships of the Satsuma Navy.

It can be said that a sea battle of this scale has never erupted several times in history.

At this time, on this occasion, on the flagship of the Daming Navy, Taichang just wanted to laugh.

He really wanted to laugh, not because he was not serious enough to face the war, but because the Satsuma navy was too funny.

People really brought the kind of small fishing boat that can only seat a few people, and it's not just one, but hundreds of them densely packed.

Can this also be called a warship?
If this can also be called a warship, then Daming has tens of thousands of warships!
Although the Ming Dynasty has enforced the sea ban for more than two hundred years, there are still many fishing boats in the rivers and lakes, probably more than tens of thousands.

This kind of small fishing boat must not be able to withstand a single shot, as long as it is hit, it will sink!

Isn't the Satsuma Navy navy here to deliver food?
He really couldn't help laughing.

Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Keli also had strange expressions on their faces after scanning with binoculars.

They have never seen a fishing boat brought up to fight a naval battle.

This Dongying person is really wonderful!

Taichang endured it for a long time, then held back his laughter, and ordered in a loud voice: "Order, the Longya warships of the Dongyang Navy and the Beiyang Navy stepped forward, approached five li, and prepared to shoot a broadside salvo. The boat is flanked on the outside."

The Dongying people probably didn't know how many artillery they had, so they didn't stop for a moment, so they rushed straight up!
The range of their artillery is at least five miles away, how dare the Satsuma navy sail straight to the front!
It's not that Huashan Jiugao has a problem with his brain, and he can't help it.

Of course he knew that the Daming Navy had artillery.

He also participated in the Luliang naval battle, and he is very clear about the range of the Daming Navy's artillery.

The range of their main artillery is probably not five or six miles, and the range of other artillery is more than one mile.

And their artillery, or earthen cannon, or earthen blunderbuss, has a range of only two hundred steps at most!

In other words, if they didn't rush up to get close to the beating, they wouldn't have to fight at all.

If you are cruising around the periphery, you will only be able to eat shells.

Therefore, as soon as the outpost spotted the fleet of the Daming Navy, he ordered without hesitation, all warships, don't stop, just rush up and set sail.

He just wanted to catch Daming Navy by surprise, come to a hedge, rush up and do it!

Don't you know that Daming already has a telescope with a viewing distance of more than ten miles.

On this unobstructed sea, they were discovered more than twenty miles away.

It is impossible to engage in a surprise attack.

They had only reached the range of about five miles from the Daming Navy's fleet, when there was an earth-shattering roar of artillery from the opposite side.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom"!
I don't know how many shells rained down, and a wall of water more than ten miles wide was set off on the entire sea. All the small fishing boats within the range of the water wall were blasted to pieces!

The flagship Huashan Jiugao was riding was still more than ten miles away from the forward, and he could clearly see the terrifying water wall, and the earth-shattering roar of artillery made his ears hurt even more.

Daming navy has so many artillery!
Such a wide water wall cannot be set off by hundreds of shells at first glance. They have at least thousands of artillery pieces!
If it was an ordinary person, if they encountered a Daming navy with such terrifying firepower, they would probably turn around immediately and run away.

However, Dongying people are not ordinary people, their brain structure is different from ordinary people.

Under such circumstances, instead of giving the order to retreat, Huashan Jiugao shouted nervously: "Beat the drums and charge at full speed!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom."

A burst of rhythmic drums sounded, and all the soldiers of the Satsuma Navy Navy paddled their oars frantically as if they had taken the wrong medicine, and rushed towards the Daming Navy at full speed.

The warships of the Dongying Navy have a characteristic, that is, they all have oars.

Whether it is a fishing boat or a Guan boat, whether it is an house boat or an iron-clad boat, they all have oars.

The bigger the boat, the more oars there are. A ten-foot-long ironclad ship has more than 30 oars!
There is no way, they are just like Daming, there are just too many people.

All of their warships with paddles can sprint very fast in a short distance, and they can even catch up with the speed of the wheels as long as they row hard!

It's a pity that Huashan Jiugao didn't know that the artillery equipped by the Daming Navy was no longer the artillery he saw in the Luliang naval battle.

He had just ordered a charge from his side, and there was another violent artillery roar on the opposite side.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom"!
Another mass of black artillery shells hit, and the soaring water column cut off the forward ship array of the Satsuma Navy Navy!

When Huashan Jiugao saw this, his eyes nearly popped out of shock.

How can it be!

How many artillery pieces does the Daming Navy have?
In this case, most people would definitely turn around and run away in fright.

Just kidding, I ate two rounds of shells four or five miles away from my house, and both rounds were smashed by thousands of shells.

At least two hundred of the small fishing boats of the vanguard were smashed, and they are still rushing?

No way, Dongying people are not ordinary people.

If you don't make them lie on the ground and can't get up, they won't know how to be afraid!
The warships of the entire fleet were nearly wiped out, and Huashan Jiugao had no intention of escaping at all. He still howled frantically: "Don't stop the drums, charge me as hard as you can!"

In the distance, on the flagship of the Daming Navy, Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Keli saw this scene with shocked expressions on their faces.

Lu Xiangsheng, the king of Lu Yan, couldn't help exclaiming: "These Japanese pirates are really not afraid of death!"

Do you think they are brave?
They are mentally ill!
Taichang snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "They don't call it bravery, they call it overestimation. The Japanese pirates are so overconfident. They always think that they can dominate the world by relying on their reckless arrogance. It's just ridiculous. pole!"

Of course he knew that this was the famous suicide charge of Japanese pirates.

It is a tradition for Japanese pirates to finish this.

This trick may work against people whose weapons and equipment are not as good as theirs, but against people with better weapons and equipment than them, they will be beaten to the ground.

In history, the Russians used the Bobosha submachine gun with a big disc underneath to educate them well.

At this moment, without waiting for the Russian Bobosha to come out, I can educate you well.

You little devils, if you dare to play suicide charge with me, you are looking for death!
Taichang gave the order without hesitation: "Order, order the wheeled ships in the front row to fire together with the Spike warships, and give me a hard blast! Order them to prepare their muskets, and open fire intensively as soon as the Japanese pirates rush up!"

As soon as the command flag was waved, there was a continuous roar of artillery in the formation of the Daming Navy.

There are hundreds of wheel ships in the front row, and there are more than two hundred Spike warships.

Although the shells they fired were not as many as the Spike warships behind them, they were closer to the Satsuma Navy navy.

These shells all hit the middle of the Satsuma Navy navy ship formation.

Huashan Jiugao looked at the jet of water continuously splashing not far in front of him, he seemed to go crazy, and roared, "Come on, go up, kill them!"

Well, he just wanted to overthrow the Daming Navy with this desperate and arrogant posture.

However, he was thinking a little too much, so what if they rushed up?

The Daming Navy not only has artillery, they also have muskets, and the number of their muskets is equally astonishing!
