Chapter 708 Black Ship Incident

"Good fight! Haha!" Chui

Seeing the shogunate army boat that was directly blown to pieces by explosive bombs, Chongzhen couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.

In another world, the Chinese people had had enough of being humiliated and even massacred by Japanese slaves. As a descendant of the Chinese nation, Chongzhen felt very angry inside.

So now, seeing the Japanese slaves suffer a loss, Chongzhen felt very happy.

This is how you should beat your little ones until they doubt your life.

Zheng Zhilong, Shi Tianfu and other naval generals also looked excited. They never expected that the power of the explosive shells was so great.

"Your Majesty, our explosive bombs are simply artifacts of naval warfare!"

"In the Battle of Liaoluo Bay back then, if the Ming Dynasty Navy had such explosive ammunition, it could have wiped out Liu Xiang and the Dutch army, haha!" Chui!

"It's too late to fight again later."

Chongzhen laughed and said: "Send the order, continue firing, all the shogunate navy ships besieging Guankong Island will be sunk, and not a single one will be left behind, haha!"

"I obey the order!" Zheng Zhilong saluted with a military salute.

Immediately, the messenger was asked to issue orders through the microphone connecting the upper and lower decks.

As a result, the 32 naval guns on the starboard side continued to fire, hitting rows of 4-inch and 6-inch caliber shells onto the shogunate navy's warships.



At this time, Zheng Wangcai and Xu Sanguan also knew that it was the Ming Dynasty Navy who came.

"Haha, it's Ming Dynasty's navy that has arrived. We can be saved! Haha, we can be saved!"

Zheng Wangcai, Xu Sanguan and more than 300 Ming righteous people who survived the disaster cheered.

Then, these more than 300 Ming righteous citizens saw an even more exciting scene.

I saw that the warships of the Shogunate Navy that had just tried to attack Guan Kong Island were attacked by the cannons of the Daming Navy. One after another, they were blown to pieces by cannonballs. Both the ships themselves and the Shogunate samurai on board were all torn into pieces.

.

It was really broken. A large-caliber grenade of nearly 200 mm shattered the boat without any pressure.

Zheng Wangcai and others were amazed at the sharpness of the Ming Dynasty Navy, and at the same time they felt extremely proud.

After living in humiliation for decades in Osaka, the powerful and powerful Ming Navy finally arrived.



Zheng Wangcai and others were excited and proud, but Tokugawa Yoshinao, Inaba Masato and other daimyo who came to help felt solemn, as if they had been crushed by a huge stone.

The artillery of the Ming Navy was so sharp that the attacking navy and warriors would be in danger.

Then, under the watchful eyes of Tokugawa Yoshinao and others, and under the noses of one hundred thousand shogunate troops, the Daming Navy began a brutal massacre of the shogunate navy samurai.

First, they bombarded them with cannons, tearing the warships into pieces one after another.

The warriors carried on each warship were also torn into pieces.

Then they hit it with a ram. Wherever the huge ram passed, the shogunate navy's boat was instantly broken into two pieces, and the samurai on board also fell into the sea one after another.

Even so, the Ming army's black ships still did not let these warriors go.

Rows of Ming warriors immediately appeared on the side of the ship, holding "iron cannons" and aiming at the shogunate samurai who were splashing in the sea and fired fiercely. The shogunate samurai were hunted down one after another.

In less than a moment, Osaka Bay was stained red with the blood of samurai.

This was not over yet, the large black ship of the Ming Navy sailed towards Osaka Castle.

Until this moment, the 100,000 shogunate troops standing on the shore and on top of Osaka Castle watching the battle were not aware of the danger. The large black ships of the Ming Navy were already approaching two thousand steps, and they did not think of avoiding them.



"Get closer, get closer!"

Seeing this scene, Chongzhen's eyes shone with excitement, and his heart was filled with anticipation. He eagerly wanted to see the beautiful scenery of the Japanese slaves on the shore being blown to pieces by explosive bombs.

The reality is that Chongzhen has brought the Japanese slaves in front of him into the small days of another world.

Therefore, the Japanese slave in front of him inherited Chongzhen's deep-seated hatred for his small life.

Although Zheng Zhilong did not have the same hatred as Chongzhen, he was still full of expectations for the upcoming scene. Although his wife was a Japanese, it did not mean that he had any good impression of the Japanese country.

The navy and army officers on the Zhou Yu also had no favorable impressions of Japanese slaves.

Because the Ming Dynasty was harassed and massacred by Japanese pirates for four hundred years.

Although the Japanese slaves in another world tried to whitewash the Japanese pirates, saying that the Japanese pirates were basically Ming fishermen along the coast and the number of real Japanese was actually very small, the Ming soldiers in this world obviously did not think so.

Therefore, the Ming soldiers were full of expectations for the upcoming massacre.

With the expectations of Chongzhen, Zheng Zhilong and all the Ming army officers and men, the Zhou Yu got closer and closer to the coast, and soon there were only a thousand steps left, and then it reached 800 steps...

The multiple Franco cannons installed at the top of Osaka Castle began to fire one after another.

Water jets splashed from time to time in front of the Zhou Yu and on both sides.

Occasionally, shells hit the bow of the ship, but at most they could only make a dent.

Finally, the naval officer in charge of measuring the distance reported that there were only 500 steps left from the coastline.

Chongzhen immediately turned to Zheng Zhilong and said, "It's almost time, Duke of Fujian, let's fire!"

Now Zheng Zhilong didn't want to use the messenger, he rushed directly to the microphone and shouted loudly at the mouth of the speaker: "We have them all, target Japanese slaves on the shore, shoot freely! Shoot at full speed!"

The Zhou Yu immediately turned sideways, and the 32 naval guns on the starboard side fired one after another.

Accompanied by the muffled sound of "boom, boom, boom", each round of 4-inch or 6-inch caliber explosive bullets, carrying a piercing scream, hit the shogunate troops watching on the shore with a nearly straight trajectory.

About two seconds later, the shell landed on the shore.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Then there was a violent explosion.

A 6-inch explosive bullet landed right in the queue of the shogunate army, and instantly exploded a large crater with a diameter of nearly twenty steps. Dozens of samurai in the crater were directly blown to pieces, as well as five people around them.

The samurai, retainers and ashigaru within ten steps also fell to the ground, and hundreds of them were killed and injured in just one shot!

There was also a 6-inch shell that landed on the roof of a house.

The next moment, the entire house was blown to pieces.

There was also a 6-inch shell that landed on the wall of Osaka Castle.

With just a bang, a large piece of the city wall's bricks collapsed.

More cannonballs landed on the city wall, on the roofs outside the city, and on the heads of the shogunate army. The same scene was repeated, but this round of shelling caused heavy damage to the shogunate army.

At least a dozen houses were bombed, and thousands of shogunate troops were killed or injured.



Seeing the shogunate soldiers being killed one by one and the houses being blown up piece by piece, Chongzhen smiled even more happily. He looked down.

It's comfortable, it's really comfortable now. This can be regarded as revenge for the Songhu Battle in another world. In that world's Songhu Battle, the Japanese soldiers were blown up by the large-caliber naval cannons of the small days.

Today in this world, Ming Dynasty finally got this place back.

Amid Chongzhen's laughter, the Zhou Yu's naval guns began the second round of shelling.

After changing the cannon from front loading to rear loading, the rate of fire has been greatly improved.

Previously, one shot per minute was the limit, but now it can reach two shots per minute.

In the future, once Gewuke solves the passivation problem of nitrocellulose, the rate of fire of the cannon can be further improved. Five or even ten rounds per minute are no longer a luxury.

...hang down

"Sir, get out of here quickly, it's dangerous!"

The samurai retainers at the head of Osaka Castle finally realized the huge danger, and hurriedly protected Tokugawa Yoshinao and Inaba Masato from the castle tower.

As a result, the group had just descended from the city when they heard a roar behind them.

When I turned around in shock, I was surprised to see that the Osaka Minato Gate Tower had collapsed.

"Eight grids!" Tokugawa Yoshinao said with a dark face, "Why are the firearms of the Ming Navy so sharp?"

"Yes, Hongyi's firearms are completely incomparable to Daming's firearms." Inaba Masato also looked in disbelief. He originally thought that Hongyi's firearms were sharp enough, but he didn't expect that Daming's firearms were ten times sharper.

, even a hundred times! The Ming Dynasty’s firearms are so sharp, can Japan still survive?

Surprised, Inaba Masato is not stupid either.

Immediately ordered the shogunate troops to withdraw into Osaka Castle.



Seeing the shogunate's army retreating into Osaka Castle, Chongzhen and Zheng Zhilong both laughed.

Can safety be guaranteed by retreating into Osaka Castle? The Japanese slaves were too naive.

At that moment, Chongzhen ordered Zheng Zhilong: "Mr. Fujian, let all the naval guns be replaced with solid ammunition, aim at the Water Gate of Osaka City and bombard it, and try to open the Osaka Water Gate within one day!"

"According to the decree!" Zheng Zhilong promised loudly.

At this time, in order to protect the naval guns on the starboard side, Zheng Zhilong ordered the Zhou Yu to turn around, aim the 32 naval guns on the port side at the water gate of Osaka Castle, and then began a violent bombardment.

Osaka Castle may be considered strong in Japan.

But it is nothing compared to the Xiongguan Fortress in the Ming Dynasty.

However, even the Ming Dynasty's Xiongguan Fortress could not withstand the bombardment of the old red barbarian cannons, so how could the Osaka Castle built by the Japanese slaves withstand the bombardment of the Zhou Yu's large-caliber naval gun?

It only took less than half a day for Osaka Minato to collapse.

After the collapse of Watergate, the buildings in the city were exposed to the muzzles of Zhou Yu's naval guns.

Zheng Zhilong ordered the Zhou Yu to turn around again, and then launched a bombardment on the buildings in Osaka Castle. For a time, the entire Osaka Castle was enveloped in the smoke and dust generated by the explosion.

The shogunate's troops were no longer safe inside Osaka Castle and could only withdraw to the north of the city.

Just after the shogunate retreated to a safe distance northeast of Osaka Castle, the Ming Dynasty's 2,000 ryojunk ships, 1,000 ryo kurao ships, and 400 ryo bird ships began to dock.

Immediately, the soldiers of the 2nd Division on the ship began to land.

Since the navy completely controlled the coastline of Osaka Bay, the landing of the 2nd Division became extremely easy. There was no need to rush to the beach at all and they could disembark directly from the pier.

The Osaka Pier was not hit by shelling and all facilities remained intact.

On December 13, the 22nd year of Chongzhen, the 2nd Division of the Ming Dynasty Army landed in Osaka under the cover of the navy. A fierce battle broke out with the shogunate army, which was known in history as the Osaka Bay Incident or the Black Ship Incident.
