Capital Datang

Chapter 329 Tsushima Sea Battle

ww.x.om "General, the Japanese fleet is less than fifty miles away from us. All the ships are ready. Shouldn't it be time to go to sea to meet the enemy?" On the huge handsome ship, Zhu Chong looked excitedly at Lu Qing asked for instructions.Behind them, there are rows of Datang warships that have already been prepared. The mighty soldiers on the deck are full of energy, ready to avoid the shame of fighting before the snow.

"What's the hurry, wait a little longer!" Lu Qing narrowed his eyes and smiled. The fleet that was sent out to harass the Japanese people has all returned, and they even deliberately attracted them to this sea area. The reason why they chose this place It is also particular about being a battlefield, mainly because the sea here is wide and deep, and there are not so many hidden reefs, which is more conducive to the battle of their big ships, and today the wind here is blowing from the back, which is just good for them. The warship accelerated.

"General, it's thirty miles away!" Nearly an hour later, Zhu Chong, who got the news, couldn't hold back and said again.

"Wait!" Lu Qing remained unmoved, but Zhu Chong was so anxious that his head was covered in sweat.

"General, it's twenty miles away, we can't wait any longer!" The restless Zhu Chong waited for a while, and was motivated again when he received the news.Capital Datang 329

"The whole army obeys orders, hoist the sails and speed up!"

Following Lu Qing's order, the standard-bearer on the handsome ship immediately conveyed the order. In the blink of an eye, all the warships sounded bursts of slogans, and the heavy anchors and hard sails also slowly rose. With the sea breeze blowing in, the entire fleet began to slowly accelerate forward. When the Japanese fleet in the distance appeared in the binoculars of Lu Qing's brothers and feet, the speed of the entire fleet also reached the highest value.

When the Japanese navy on the opposite side saw the oncoming Datang navy, the whole country also burst into cheers. They were so angry that they were harassed by the small fleet of the Tang army during this period, and they were desperately looking for the Tang army. The main force in order to vent the anger in my heart, now Tang Jun and these cowards finally stopped hiding and are ready to fight them decisively.

It's just that the excitement of Wa Kingdom didn't last long, when the two huge fleets were only two or three hundred steps apart.The Japanese people suddenly found that the warship they were riding on compared with the opponent's warship was simply the gap between a giant and a dwarf, and the speed of this giant was even higher than theirs, and each ship was like a speeding ship on the sea. The icebergs split the waves and crashed towards them.

"Swish, whoosh, whoosh~" With a series of breaking winds, black lightning bolts flew out from the Tang army's warship, which was the bed crossbow on the ship.The crossbow arrows with thick arms were shot at the thin Japanese boats, and almost one arrow could shoot out the two holes in the front and back, so just this round of arrow rain, dozens of small Japanese warships were shot The unlucky ones were "shot" below the waterline, and as a result, seawater poured in immediately, causing the Japanese on board to yell.

Although the power of the bed crossbow is good, it still has a shortcoming, that is, the arrow is too slow, and the arrow will be shot out as soon as it goes.It will take a while to shoot the second arrow, although Li Yin has made some improvements to the bed crossbow.For example, the tanker group is used to save energy when winding the string, but the speed is still not fast. Generally, one arrow can be shot in one minute, and the most skilled crossbowman can maintain the speed of two arrows in one minute.

But even so, the bed crossbow also caused the Japanese people on the opposite side to suffer a lot. A bolt of lightning-like crossbow arrows shot from top to bottom, although not many ships that were hit by the arrows sank.However, the damage suffered is extremely high, and the speed is also greatly affected. If some unlucky soldiers are "shot" by this kind of crossbow.That can only be blamed on him committing too many crimes in his previous life, and he couldn't even get a whole corpse down in this life.

As the two fleets approached, the Japanese boats were finally able to fight back. Their boats were too small, and there were no weapons on them. All they could use were the bows and arrows in their hands and the small catapults on the boat. Heavy objects can only kill a few unlucky soldiers of the Tang Dynasty at most, and the damage to the hull is negligible.

But speaking of it, there is another weapon that is quite deterrent to big ships, that is rockets, but the range of this kind of arrows is very short, and generally only two ships can be shot when the distance between them is quite close.

Regarding the counterattack of the Japanese, Datang's warships were naturally not to be outdone. In addition to bed crossbows, weapons such as catapults and rockets took turns to attack. The gunpowder weapons that come out, although the accuracy of this rocket is not good, but the blackness in front of them is all Japanese warships, even if they are blinded, they can be blinded.

When the huge stone thrown by the Tang army fell on the Japanese fleet, it caused screams again. Countless Japanese warships were smashed, and the soldiers who fell into the water swam desperately to the nearby warships, hoping to escape their lives.However, if it is "shot" by a rocket, there will be a violent explosion immediately. Not only will the ship be blown into pieces, but the soldiers on board will also be unable to escape, and the explosion will cause a big fire, so after a while, the Japanese fleet There were clumps of black smoke.

"Boom~"

With a loud noise, the Tang warship rushing to the front finally collided with the small Japanese warship. Unfortunately, there is no suspense in this kind of collision that is not of the same heavyweight. The Tang warships are all lucky ships. The high bow of the ship crushed the opponent's ship under him in the blink of an eye, and the whole ship was crushed by the hard keel.

The ship is big and fast, and its kinetic energy is naturally greater. A small ship can't stop such a huge warship, so after crashing a warship, it immediately rushed into the Japanese fleet without slowing down. It looks like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, as long as the warships blocking its way forward, all of them cannot escape the fate of being crashed.

"Arrows! Arrows! Arrows!"

On the handsome boat, Zhu Chong commanded the archers around him to shoot down the rain of arrows non-stop. Their hull was tall and had four floors. As cheap as possible, and they are surrounded by female walls, it is not easy for the Japanese below to "shoot" them.

"嗖嗖嗖~" Arrows with sparks were also shot from the Japanese ship, and Zhu Chong's handsome ship also hit some, but there were already prepared soldiers carrying sand and sea water to put out the fire .Their hulls are tall, and the wood on board is also selected from the relatively solid wood, so it is not so easy to burn them down.

Naval battle is a technical activity, and the number does not have much advantage here. In the era of Datang, the competition is all about the performance of warships. Only when the performance of the two ships is similar, will it happen The most common jumping gang battle is a pity that the warships of the Wa Kingdom are too different from those of the Tang Dynasty, and it is not easy to climb up to fight with the Tang army.

It is precisely because of this that Japan's numerical advantage cannot be brought into play here at all. After being rushed by Lu Qing's giant warships, the entire fleet immediately became disorganized, and many warships even sank completely. Not a few were injured.However, the speed of sailing warships depends on wind and animal momentum. With so many Japanese warships in front of them, they will always run out of strength, so Lu Qing's warships are only half full, and their speed has dropped.Capital Datang 329

However, the Tang soldiers did not panic at all. Following the order of the generals on the ships, soldiers immediately carried out boxes of things from the heavily protected cabins, opened the lids of the boxes, and what was revealed was a box. Box of grenades and mortar shells.These are Tang Jun's trump cards, which are suitable for use in this chaotic time.

"Boom~Boom~Boom~"

As Tang Jun threw the ignited grenade on the nearby Japanese warship, the sound of explosions sounded again, and it was countless times denser than the rockets just now. Although the lethality of the grenade is much smaller, this thing is very flexible. The soldiers also threw them on the deck where the Japanese soldiers gathered, and as a result, pieces of flesh and blood were blown up. The scene was countless times bloodier than before.

Although the Japanese have seen the power of rockets just now, they are a minority after all. Now seeing the raindrops of grenades falling from the top of their heads, the first explosion killed several people, and the injured are even more afraid. Belly abounds.

The Japanese army, which was baptized with hot weapons for the first time, finally understood that although the number of their own side was several times that of the other side, they had no advantage at all when facing the well-equipped Tang army. It could even be said that they were at the risk of being slaughtered. It is difficult to achieve even a little strength to resist.

Everyone has fears, even the Japanese who are cruel by nature are no exception. Seeing the companions around them being bombed beyond recognition, all the Japanese felt a chill in their hearts, and their movements slowed down. An idea of ​​wanting to flee from this battlefield immediately.

Taking advantage of the advantages of gunpowder weapon manufacturing, Datang's naval warships attacked unscrupulously, and soon the more than a thousand warships of the Japanese had already shown a kind of failure.Seeing this situation, the experienced Lu Qing immediately ordered to call up a reserve team left behind, and the addition of this new force became the last straw that broke the camel's back. The formation could no longer be maintained, and all the ships were ramming like headless chickens. Some Japanese even saw that the situation was not good, and they were ready to escape.

Seeing that the Japanese were defeated, the Datang navy was even more motivated and the offensive became more violent. The fleet chasing the Japanese was killed in a burst of blood, and the whole sea area was dyed red with blood. Light up the whole sky.

In the battle of the Tsushima Strait, the 30 Japanese navy was almost wiped out, and those who escaped were chased and killed by the Datang Navy. In the end, almost none of them could return to the Japanese country, and the Datang Navy also paid [-] Many warships were destroyed and thousands of soldiers died in battle. Although the price was very heavy, it was worth it to achieve such a perfect result.

When the news of the Tsushima sea battle reached the ears of Li Min in Jincheng, he was worried about the outcome of the sea battle, and he jumped up and shouted excitedly: "The arms and legs of the Japanese kingdom have been broken, and I will take them soon." !"
