Chapter 502 The Cannonball Destroys the Japanese Fleet (Subscribe)

Hit?

Four three two one had just been asked, and a standard bearer passed on the results of the wait and see.

There were eight turrets on the side, none of which hit the target.

However, the eight solid iron bullets were all concentrated in the same area, causing the surrounding waves to surge violently, which at least played a role in rioting.

"The first shot is to test the distance, and the second shot is to really show off!"

[-] didn't get entangled in 'emptying', and swiftly directed the nearby soldiers to push back the barrel, and began to reload the cannon for the second time.

"Go!"

Holding the torch to ignite the fuse, four three two one said silently in his heart, and then he heard the sound of roaring cannons.

"Whoosh~"

The shells crossed a distance of thousands of meters, and once again descended from the sky above the Japanese warship.

At the same time, the flag bearer on high suddenly waved the red flag in his hand.

The semaphore is very simple, it only expresses two words.

hit!

hit!
"Two shells hit the Japanese warship, one hit the cabin, and the other hit the deck with good luck."

"We hit two enemy ships!"

The sailors who understood the semaphore cheered immediately, and they jumped for joy when they heard [-].Even if he didn't know whether he was responsible for the two shells.

"Go on, keep on reloading!"

"Today, let's use heavy artillery to kill these Japanese people."

With [-] waving vigorously, the third round of shelling soon began.

This time, the distance between the two sides has been shortened to less than a thousand meters. You don't need to wait and see from a high place, you can see at least five or six shells in four, three, two, one, and they hit the Japanese warship firmly.

Among them, there is the one that he himself is responsible for igniting and launching.

"Turn the rudder."

"The right-wing turret suspends shelling, and the left-wing turret is ready!"

The one who opened the mouth to give the order was Chen Can, the general of the Daming Weihai Marine Division, who was also a seasoned veteran just like his current immediate boss, Chen Lin.

Although the body of the red-clothed cannon is enlarged and thickened, whether it is the gunpowder residue in the cannon body or the high temperature during firing, it will have a certain impact on the heavy cannon.

Switching hulls in two or three shots is undoubtedly the right choice.

At the same time, the old warships surrounding the two main battleships were also dispatched one after another.Although these warships are not equipped with red cannons, the Fran cannons on board can still suppress the Japanese at a closer position.

"Damn!"

"Da Ming's artillery is too powerful."

On the Japanese command ship 'Yuno', Kato Yoshiaki was half-drenched by the sea water. His warship was not spared in the rounds of shelling just now. A big hole was smashed.

"We must be close to Ming's warships, and we cannot let them fire at us unscrupulously."

"Rush up, rush up at full speed for me, all iron gunners pay attention to concealment, and open fire immediately after approaching the Ming warship."

Faced with the crushing of technology, Yoshiaki Kato could only use his roar to arouse the blood of his soldiers.But most of the time, blood can't solve the problem, but it seems to be sent to death impulsively.

"Boom boom boom boom"

As the distance between the fleets of the two sides narrowed again, maintaining between one and two miles, the warships of Ming Dynasty were almost fully fired.

Most of the naval expenditure in this battle was paid by the emperor.

Four Three Two One was also given to Chen Lin three thousand gold in the name of Admiral Mo Xiaobai.

Adding up all the odds and zeros, Chen Lin set off with 80 silver in hand.

The old man Chen Lin was greedy, but at least he wasn't mad, and he couldn't do the weird things like gunpowder mixed with sand. He even didn't bother with military supplies because he knew how to be greedy.

Solid iron cannon, gunpowder processed in strict accordance with the ratio of ingredients, and some reliable fuses purchased from the Frang machine.

A lot of money was spent, but the effect is also very obvious.

When hundreds of shells fell into the Japanese fleet like dumplings, all Ming soldiers could hear the clear sound of shells hitting the ship.

More than [-] warships sank a third of them within half a quarter of an hour.As for the remaining warships, they were still attacking the Daming Navy under the command of Kato Yoshiaki.

"We must be able to rush in, and we can start a scuffle if we rush in."

"At that time, the Ming warships will not dare to fire at will, and the blade war will definitely be able to win."

Kato's face was ferocious, he grabbed the railing and stared at the front, wishing he could fly to the Daming warship now and kill those Daming people who can only fire cannons.

It's just that Kato Yoshiaki didn't know that the opponent he met was an old and strong general.

Chen Lin doesn't have many battle strategies, but he knows how to make use of his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.

The advantage of the Ming warship is the artillery. If you want the artillery to give full play to its advantages, you must move to fight.Like a master of kite flying, he is always holding a long line, but he will not easily let the kite fall close to him.

Every battleship is under Chen Lin's control.

Many naval generals, including Chen Can and Ji Jin, also strictly carried out the orders of the acting generals.

Swimming and shuttling, always keeping a distance of more than 500 meters from the Japanese warship.

For a short 500 meters, it may take less than 1 minute to do a horse race on flat ground.But in Kato Yoshiaki's eyes, this distance is like a natural moat.

You can see it, but you can never touch it.

"General, three more warships have sunk due to water leaks."

With a look of despair, the flag bearer said a piece of news. After a pause of half a second, he added: "We, if we don't withdraw, we will sink."

"Can't withdraw."

Kato Yoshiaki spoke hoarsely, his eyes were bloodshot: "Hatake-san, are you afraid of death?"

"Reporting to the general, Hatake never fears death!"

"well said!"

Kato Yoshiaki took a deep breath, then gritted his teeth: "Give me an order to put down the ten small boats in the middle cabin, and we will switch to small boats and continue to charge!"

"Hi!"

Bannerman Hatake Nishi was startled, but quickly nodded reflexively.

Big ships are too easy to be hit, perhaps only small ships can rush to the Ming army.But if they change to a small boat, it means fighting to the end.

The chance of repayment is almost zero.

As the flag bearer passed on the order, the boat was quickly thrown into the sea, and all the Japanese soldiers, including Kato, abandoned the boat one after another.

"Wakisaka-kun, I will try my best to help you hold back Daming Navy Master, you must escape."

"Franco's caravan has not been to Kobe Port for a month. The materials we transport are all previous trading stocks."

"There is nothing to lose on board."

Looking back in the direction of Busan for the last time, Yoshiaki Kato pulled out his saber and roared:

"charge!"

The remaining dozens of small boats, carrying about three to five hundred Japanese soldiers, rushed towards the Ming Fleet like this.

"What a bunch of lunatics!"

Hundreds of meters away, what [-] saw was actually more like a group of ants heading towards the elephant.

"Come on, use your deaths to wake me up."

"In the plane, lagging behind people will end like this!"
