Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 435: Naval Battle! Escape in Disgrace
Getting on board soon?
I think you are in a hurry to reincarnate!
Wang Chong sneered, took the flag from the flag bearer, and immediately gave orders.

One speedboat after another was approaching the cargo ships like crazy, but they had no idea that the sailors and soldiers on these cargo ships had already prepared bombs and were waiting for them to approach!
As the speedboats approached, the enemies began to use boarding equipment. The soldiers and sailors on the cargo ships sneered and dropped the lit bombs.

Each bomb is a modified version from the Ministry of Industry!
Its amazing explosive power had already been demonstrated as early as the time when it was in Futu City.

Now, facing such a group of enemies who come towards us on their own initiative, what else can we say?

Just explode it!

Bombs as big as watermelons kept falling, landing on the deck and at the enemy's feet.

"WTF?"

“Kick away, kick away!”

"It's important to get on board!"

The Luzon navy, who were dazzled by the rewards, did not care about the things that fell down at all.

But just when they casually kicked it aside, these watermelon-sized bombs exploded with amazing power at this moment.

Boom boom boom!
Bomb after bomb instantly blew everything within a ten-foot radius into pieces.

Even though these speedboats had layers of protection, they could not withstand the terrifying impact of the bombs.

One by one, the Luzon soldiers were blown away and shattered amid screams and wailing.

The strong impact caused the four large cargo ships under Su Bin's command to shake and tilt slightly.

Fortunately, the soldiers and sailors on the cargo ship were prepared in advance, otherwise, the impact of these bombs would be enough to make them fall into the sea.

hiss!
Wu Meng's eyes widened, "What is that thing, and why is it so powerful?"

"Wang Taoyun!"

"General, I don't know."

The deputy general standing next to Wu Meng was confused. "I only know that fire guns were used in the Tang Dynasty's military parade, but I have never heard of these things, let alone seen them!"

Wu Meng clenched his fists as he watched the speeding ships turned into shredded wood in the explosions of the bombs, and the soldiers turned into minced meat and became dry rations for the fish.

"Why do they have such powerful weapons?"

"In just this moment, more than a dozen of my speedboats and hundreds of elite soldiers were destroyed!"

Faced with Wu Meng's roar, Wang Taoyun really didn't know how to respond.

but.

What is important right now is not these, but the two fighting ships that are rushing towards us.

"General, they seem to be coming towards us!"

Wu Meng also noticed the two fighting warships that were rushing towards him.

The speed of the fighting ship is comparable to that of the speedboat, but the size of the fighting ship is much larger than that of the speedboat. Most importantly, the weapons and equipment on the fighting ship far exceed those of the speedboat.

The soldiers brought by Wu Meng had been living on the sea all year round, so their abilities were naturally needless to say. However, because Luzon was weak, most of the weapons they were equipped with, whether it was the navy or the army, were bows and crossbows.

With such weapons, there won't be many problems in a fight under equal circumstances.

But now, facing the muskets in the hands of Li Chuan and others, it seems a little not enough.

In just one encounter, the soldiers on several speedboats that were blocking the fighting ships were easily killed by bullets.

On the other hand, the Tang army on the fighting ships, under the protection of the women's wall, suffered casualties.

Wu Meng's face gradually became gloomy, and he suddenly realized that he had underestimated the fighting effectiveness of the Tang army.

Even though the other side only had more than 2,000 people, the combat effectiveness of these people far exceeded that of the navy he led!
Especially those muskets!
These people can use the advantages of muskets to shoot the soldiers on the approaching speedboats from a long distance, and when they get close, they can use bombs to blow up the speedboats they are on.

This also made it impossible for his subordinates to step forward to stop him, nor was it right for them not to step forward to stop him.

"General, shall we retreat first?"

Deputy General Wang Taoyun hesitated and said, "The enemy carries too many weapons, far beyond our expectations. If this continues, our men will die in vain."

Wu Meng, however, stared silently at the speedboats approaching the cargo ship.

Although the Tang army's bombs were incredibly powerful, some soldiers still managed to climb onto the cargo ship.

If they were given some time, they might have a chance to control the cargo ship.

"hold on!"

Wu Meng took a deep breath and said, "Wealth and honor come in danger. Now that we have already taken action against them, we cannot give up halfway."

"Otherwise, if we let them go, they will file a complaint with the Tang Dynasty and we will be held accountable and questioned."

"I believe they can board the cargo ship and take control of it!"

"Send the order, three speedboats on the left and right, go to engage in the battle, and make sure to stop the two enemy battleships!"

"Yes!"

Seeing that Wu Meng had made up his mind, the deputy general nodded helplessly.

The only solution now is to pray that the soldiers who have boarded the cargo ship can take control of it as soon as possible. Only in this way will they have a chance to capture all the enemies.

Otherwise, you will come in with great momentum and leave in disgrace and disgrace.

"How dare a bunch of bastards board the ship?"

"Do you really think we are vegetarians?"

"Brothers, kill them!"

Faced with the Luzon soldiers boarding the ship, the Tang army on the cargo ship not only did not show any fear, but was extremely excited.

This is much easier than taking a musket and shooting at the speedboat where they are hiding.

after all.

With the tossing of the waves, their shooting skills may not be accurate, but at close range, the knives in their hands are extremely sharp!
The Tang army was divided into groups of fifty people, with elite soldiers in the front, followed by nearly a hundred strong sailors.

So when some sailors were excited and wanted to kill the enemy to get rewards, they found that the Luzon soldiers who boarded the cargo ship had been killed by the Tang army ahead.

They didn't even have a chance to make a move!
It's very questionable.

"Brothers, leave some for us."

"You killed them all and used their heads to exchange for money. We want to try it too."

"Leave two, leave two."

As the Luzon soldiers on the cargo ships were cleared out one after another, the four cargo ships and the tower ships once again formed a tight defensive formation.

At this point, Wu Meng's idea of ​​taking over Su Bin's fleet was completely shattered.

At the same time, blocked by the six speedboats, the speed of the two battleships led by Li Chuan gradually slowed down.

Perhaps because they had seen the power of muskets and bombs, the enemy had no intention of engaging them in a head-on battle and wanted to distract them. This put Li Chuan and his team in a difficult position.

"Fuck you, get over here."

Li Chuan yelled angrily, "Ignore the Clippers on the left and right, just charge over there. If they charge over here, we'll just blow them away!"

"Listen carefully, if you see that clown Wu Meng, break his legs. The uncle said he should make him kneel on the ground and beg for mercy."

"Yes!"

With Li Chuan's order, all the soldiers immediately became motivated.

Why bother with them?
Just rush forward. At worst, you can fight to see whose boat is stronger!
As elite troops drawn from various armies, what they fear least is the victory of the brave in a narrow road!

Just do it!

"Crazy, crazy!"

"Aren't these people afraid of death?!"

Wu Meng watched helplessly as the two fighting warships abandoned the speedboat that was harassing them and charged straight towards their side. His pupils suddenly shrank, frightened by the other side's desperate momentum.

Is it really necessary to work so hard with just a few taels of silver a month?

"General, the Tang army's large ships formed a defense, we failed!"

Deputy General Wang Taoyun ran over and said anxiously, "They are coming for the general. I think they have received a death order. General, let's retreat!"

"withdraw?"

Wu Meng was unwilling to give in.

That’s four cargo ships.

There is not only nearly ten thousand taels of gold inside, but also various valuable goods. If we take it down...

Bang!
A loud noise broke Wu Meng's fantasy.

I saw a speedboat blocking the fighting ship and was overturned by the fighting ship.

The fighting ship, relying on its huge size, actually crushed the other ship's hull.

hiss!
Wu Meng's expression changed.

Not only are the combat effectiveness of the soldiers on the fighting ship amazing, but the fighting ship is also so sturdy!

They lost.

Lost without any suspense!
"withdraw!"

"Get out!"

Wu Meng immediately issued orders.

If you don't leave now, you will miss another chance later.

Bang bang bang!
Just as Wu Meng ordered a retreat, gunshots continued to rang out from the fighting ships.

Bullet after bullet grazed Wu Meng's body, landed on the hull behind him, and embedded itself deeply into it.

then.

Wu Meng immediately fell to the ground.

"what……"

Waves of shrill screams continued to ring in Wu Meng's ears.

It turned out that those soldiers who didn't react in time were hit by the bullets!

"Get out!"

Wu Meng's face changed drastically.

At this moment he truly felt the horror of the musket.

It seemed that in the next second, the tragic plight of the soldiers in front of him would happen to him!

As Wu Meng's order was given, the clipper moved quickly.

Some of the surrounding speedboats, seeing that Wu Meng's captain had run away, naturally would not continue to hold on.

and.

After the attacks just now, there are less than twenty of the dozens of speedboats they brought with them left.

Looking at the other party...

aggressive!

If they didn't run away, they would fall into the cold sea like their companions and become food for fish.

"Fuck you, you still want to run away?"

"Zhuizhui, make sure you catch that clown Wu Meng for me!"

The two fighting ships were competing with each other, and both were afraid of falling behind their companions. They wanted to catch up with the speedboat where Wu Meng was as soon as possible and capture it.

But unfortunately, Wu Meng and others were completely frightened and fled away one after another.

When these speed ships fled towards the port of Luzon, Li Chuan couldn't help but curse.

Their two fighting ships did not dare to approach the port.

Once they get close, the giant crossbow at the port will pose a great threat to them!
With no other choice, I had to turn back.

"Didn't catch it?"

"I failed in my duty. Please punish me, sir."

"Come with me to see the uncle."

Wang Chong had a blank expression on his face.

But he did not blame Li Chuan too much. After all, the person had run away. What would it matter even if he killed Li Chuan?
"Uncle Guo."

"People ran away."

"...Yes! I will..."

"It's better if he runs away. Then, we can take action against Luzon with justification."

"what?"
