Zhu Han smiled slightly and said to Hu Dahai:

"Not only in the entire East China Sea, even to the south or west, if you look at the entire world, there will be no navy more powerful than ours!"

What Zhu Han said is not to win based on quantity of rice, but to win based on quality.

This batch of battleships all adopt the most classic sailing battleship combination of later generations, and their densely packed artillery windows are proof of their powerful military capabilities.

The smallest caliber of these artillery is a six-pounder, and the largest has reached 48 pounds, which is enough to destroy a three- to four-inch thick hardwood hull, and it is not just one layer of the hull. At a very close distance, it can destroy

The wood on both sides of a ship's hull was penetrated.

Such a powerful sailing battleship not only has no enemies in the East Asian waters, but even including Persia and Arabia, no fleet can match them.

"Okay, now that we have the sharp blade in hand, it's time to show our strength!" Zhu Han said with a smile.

Nowadays, the Red Scarf Army's naval force is sufficient. Not only can it be frequently attacked by the Mongolian and Yuan forces in Liaoyang Province in the north, but it can also ensure land and water transportation to Ganghwa Island, Tamna Island and Goryeo.

Now that another batch of new warships have been launched and completed their training, Zhu Han naturally has new plans.

"Deputy commander, are you going to attack the Huihui barbarians in Quanzhou?" Hu Dahai asked with anticipation.

Zhu Han nodded, "Yes, they are the Huihui group from Quanzhou."

Xu Da has sent letters twice and three times, and has occupied the local waterway in Quanzhou, making it difficult for the Red Scarf Army to invade.

He was still afraid that if he attacked, the barbarians would escape by sea, so he never launched a general attack.

"This time we will block all these lustful people in Quanzhou by sea. We will not let any of them escape from Quanzhou alive and let them pay with blood!" Zhu Han said fiercely.

According to the battle report sent by Xu Da from the front, the Huihuisemu people led by the Pu family in Quanzhou were burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of evil in Fujian!

It was simply a bit more cruel than when the Japanese invaded the village.

These people would kill local Han people at every turn in the name of getting rid of heretics!

Both the Han people and the Mongols, their former allies, were killed without fail.

With the support of Xu Da, Chen Youding and other Fujian generals counterattacked into Fujian and recovered most of Fujian.

However, they have not launched an attack on the coastal ports around Quanzhou in order to prevent these Huihui people with blood debts from running away.

The Hui people headed by the Pu family thought that the Red Scarf Army could not do anything to them. After all, they had been operating in the local area for a long time.

The Semu people became more and more rampant. Just last winter, because of the lack of food in Quanzhou, they killed many Han people, old and weak, and even many children did not escape death.

Everyone in Fujian hated the Semu people to the core. Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang agreed that they must be killed, otherwise they would not be able to give an explanation to the people of Fujian.

After all, the Hui Hui people owe countless blood debts, and they must not be allowed to escape.

The Red Scarf Navy, which was well prepared for war, immediately set sail in Zhenjiang and headed south along the north wind.

After several days of sailing, they soon arrived at the sea outside Quanzhou City.

A huge fleet suddenly appeared on the sea, which immediately aroused the vigilance of the people returning to Semu from Quanzhou.

The leader of the Pu family, Pu Ali, saw dozens of warships emerging on the sea and immediately guessed that they were the warships of the Red Turban Army.

"These damn infidels, don't they know how powerful we Persians are at sea?"

Today's Semu people are basically immigrants from Persia. They control the sea routes from the Middle East of Persia to China. They are invincible on the sea and dominate the sea routes.

Now seeing dozens of warships appearing on the sea, Pu Ali and others are not too worried, because the Semu people have always been very confident about their naval strength.

"Emil, what are we going to do?"

"Do you want to attack?"

A curly-haired, green-eyed rebel general asked Po Ali.

Emir means governor-general in Tianfang Sect. Feudal lords of all sizes in various places basically call themselves emir.

"Of course we must attack immediately. We must not let these infidels underestimate us!" Puali said.

Following the order, hundreds of Semu warships in Quanzhou Port poured out of the port!

Pounced towards the Red Turban Army warship ahead.

These warships with Arabian triangular sails are a unique presence on the waters of East Asia.

Their wolf-like tactics often scare local pirates.

Therefore, the Semu people, who were accustomed to being arrogant, did not take these thirty-odd Red Turban Army warships seriously.

Although these Red Turban warships look very tall!

But they believed that with their dexterous delta, they could get close quickly and seize these warships.

The main weapon of these semen navy is a powerful scorpion crossbow installed on the battleship. This scorpion crossbow can fire huge arrows as thick as an arm, or stone projectiles as big as a fist, which can smash the enemy's ship.

Shell and sail.

In addition, there are many ballistae, which are also commonly used offensive methods by the Persians.

Of course, what they are best at is fighting in gangs, throwing hooks or rope ladders onto the enemy's warships, and then climbing up and jumping to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

Now that they have an advantage in numbers, almost five times that of the Red Turban Army and Navy, they are naturally more inclined to fight hand-to-hand.

As the sails of the ship unfolded on the sea.

More than 100 warships of the Semu people were like a huge net, rushing toward the Red Turban Army's navy.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Zhu Han stood on the bow of the ship and said to Hu Dahai with a smile, "These Persians are here to die themselves. We must greet them well and leave enough fast warships behind. We must not let them go."

These Persians took advantage of the chaos and escaped!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hu Dahai immediately responded and said: "Yes, deputy commander! The general has already made arrangements, and we will not let a returning barbarian escape!"

"Okay, let's kill these lustful barbarians today and pay homage to the dead people in Fujian!"

Following the sound of a cannon, a flash of white smoke suddenly appeared on the sea.

When the Semu navy approached to within a hundred steps, the cannons on the Red Turban warships began to fire one by one.

The artillery spits fierce flames!

The blazing projectiles flew out of the gun barrel and slammed into the hull of the Semu warship.

Suddenly a scream sounded on the Semu people's battleship.

"How is this going?"

"Do these pagans possess such powerful weapons?"

Puali's ship was also hit by a 48-pounder cannon shell, but he was luckier. The shell only grazed the side of the ship and destroyed part of the deck, and did not cause fatal damage.

Even so, Ali was completely frightened by the shocking crack in the battleship in front of him.

He never imagined that the Han naval forces in front of him would possess such terrifying weapons.

"Emir, let us rush forward quickly and set fire to the ships of these infidels."

General Semu quickly advised.

Bandits like Pu Ali originally wanted to rob these huge warships of the Red Turban Army.

Now that I saw this scene, I immediately knew that the enemy was not easy to deal with, and immediately nodded in agreement.

As the horns sounded, a flag was hoisted on the triangular sail.

Everyone in Semu knew that their leader had given up on seizing ships and instead destroyed enemy ships.

Their current strategy has given up on snatching ships. Following the change of this lustful man's strategy, a large number of scorpion crossbows, bows and arrows, fire crossbows, etc. were launched from the warships, all roaring towards the warships of the Red Turban Army.

.

but.

The powerful weapons that the Persians were proud of hit the hardwood hull of the Red Scarf Army, but it was like scratching an itch and did not cause any serious damage at all.

On the contrary, the warships of the Red Scarf Army gained better range after the Persian navy approached.

boom!

Boom! Boom!

With the roar of bursts of artillery!

These Semu warships suffered fatal blows one after another, and the heavy projectiles were like the god of death, reaping the lives of the sailors and soldiers on the Semu warships.

Screams and wails echoed on the Semu warship.

The jibs fell to the sea surface like clouds falling, drifting away with the gentle rise and fall of the waves.

The large number of Semu warships simply could not withstand the heavy bombardment of the Red Turban Army's 48-pound artillery!

Many battleships were shot into the soul and instantly disintegrated on the sea.

The brutal artillery bombardment immediately plunged the Semu navy behind into a huge panic.

"By Allah! This is the devil!"

"Quick! Quick! Escape from these heavenly punishments!"

"This is divine punishment!"
