In the waters of the East China Sea, the deafening sound of artillery roared continuously, and huge water columns continued to rise from the sea. The splashing seawater wetted the Japanese pirates and pirates on the ships beside them.
At this time, these Japanese pirates and pirates had already been stunned by the precise artillery attacks. Instead of the excitement and excitement at the beginning, they became frightened.
The opponent's artillery is really accurate.
As if it has eyes, every round of attacks will inevitably hit a ship. If you are lucky, there will only be an extra hole in the ship, and more than ten or twenty people will die. If you are unlucky, you will be hit directly.
It was sunk by this kind of cannon.
"Chong~"
The Japanese pirates and pirates in charge of rowing rowed with their heads down and tried to get close to each other as quickly as possible.
Matsuura Takanobu and Wang Zhi in the rear were also dumbfounded. The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, but their losses were getting bigger and bigger. Now the distance between the two sides was only a few miles, but the original more than a hundred ships were now
Only half of them are intact, the remaining half are decorated with paint, and the other half have been sunk. There are corpses floating on the sea with the sea water, and there are also some Japanese pirates and pirates who are good at water.
Desperately asking for help.
"It's terrible. I've never seen such a terrible cannon!"
Matsuura Takanobu's face was very ugly. He was a well-informed person and had seen all kinds of artillery. But today's ultra-long-distance attack was able to shoot such an accurate artillery. He was absolutely
It was the first time I met him, and it left a deep impression on him.
"Dong~"
At this moment, a cannonball landed directly on the sea near the Matsuura on which it was riding. A huge water column rose up, and the splashed seawater fell directly on Matsuura Takanobu and Wang Zhi.
"General Matsuura, should we stay farther away?"
Wang Zhi's face turned pale with fright. Coupled with the fact that his clothes were soaked by the sea water, his elegance suddenly disappeared and he looked very embarrassed.
"No, my soldiers are charging in front, but I am retreating. What will they think? Keep moving forward and rush over."
Matsuura Takanobu shook his head, with a determined look in his eyes.
"Dong~"
As soon as he finished speaking, another column of water rose up next to the boat, frightening Wang Zhimianglan.
"Hide in the back and watch the show?"
"dream!"
On the 'General', Li Yuanshan was getting more and more relaxed at this time. He had already targeted the last few large ships, and he was the one who directed the attack just now.
"This time, let me see if your luck is still that good."
Li Yuanshan carefully calculated the distance between the two sides, constantly revised the data, and ordered the attack again.
"Boom~"
Another wave of attacks headed towards the Matsuura.
"Dong~dong~"
On the side of the Matsuura, water columns rose from the sea. A large ship next to the Matsuura was very unlucky this time. A shell directly hit the main mast of the big ship, directly knocking out the main mast of the ship.
The mast was broken, and the speed of the big ship suddenly began to decrease rapidly.
Matsuura Takanobu's face changed slightly. The opponent's artillery attack was too sharp, but he still did not give the order to retreat, because on the battlefield ahead, his own ships were getting closer and closer to the opponent, and they were about to make contact.
Up.
"Come on~"
"Kill~"
On the rough sea, Japanese pirate boats were traveling rapidly one after another. These boats were specially made by the Japanese pirates. They had long and narrow hulls, and their main power was rowing with oars.
When used to rob ships in the past, the methods and strategies of these Japanese pirates and pirates were very simple.
Use this kind of small boat to quickly approach the opponent, and then engage in close combat, rush to the opponent's ship, and plunder the opponent's ship and cargo.
These Japanese pirates and pirates are very ferocious. The Japanese pirates are all defeated warriors from the Japanese country. Basically, they have good martial arts. The samurai swords in their hands are extremely sharp, and they also have muskets, bows and arrows.
As for pirates, they have been relying on this for a long time. They all want to be ruthless people who can kill without blinking an eye. They are also skilled in swords, bows and arrows, and they are also very fierce in combat.
Used to rob merchant ships and so on, it is almost invincible.
And sometimes, these Japanese pirates and pirates would come ashore to plunder, and there were traces of their activities all along the coasts of the Ming Dynasty, North Korea, and the Japanese country.
Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to each other, these Japanese pirates and pirates began to roar excitedly again. The bows, arrows, swords, fire guns, etc. in their hands were all hungry and thirsty, and they were waiting to hit each other hard when they got closer.
"Don't panic~Don't be confused~"
After the initial panic and nervousness, Dong Mu was now much calmer. Looking at the Japanese pirates and pirates getting closer and closer, he started to give orders very calmly.
The crew members of the advance team have already put on the armor and helmets that were opened at the Miyun Iron Factory, holding various weapons in their hands, and are ready for battle.
As for the artillerymen, they were still roaring in waves.
"Boom~"
Accompanied by a loud noise and another round of artillery fire, several ships were hit by bullets on the sea ahead in an instant, and several unlucky ships began to sink into the sea.
The distance between the two sides became closer and closer. Soon, when the distance between the two sides was too close, the artillery lost its effect. At the same time, the Japanese pirates and pirates finally began to attack.
"Bang~bang~"
Along with crisp sounds, thick smoke rose from the Japanese pirate ships one after another, and the Japanese pirates' muskets were the first to fire.
"Bang~"
On the deck of a ship, there were bursts of sounds. It was the sound of projectiles hitting the wooden planks, and the sound of projectiles hitting the armor.
"Artilleryman, continue to stare at the big ships behind and hit me hard~"
"Take out the explosive packs and throw them at me as soon as these Japanese bandits and pirates come in."
On the 'General', Li Yuanshan commanded very calmly. Following his command, someone on the ship went to the cabin to carry out the explosive packets one by one.
The explosive bag was naturally invented by Liu Jin. It is very simple to make. It is nothing more than mixing some gunpowder together and replacing it with some iron bars, iron sheets and the like.
To deal with the pirates and Japanese pirates of this era, relying on close combat, these explosive packs are definitely artifacts. What's more, Liu Jin, who came from a later generation, knew the importance of throwing objects at close range, so he naturally came up with this explosive.
Bag.
"What can I give~"
On a Japanese pirate ship, a man in samurai uniform took out his samurai sword and roared at the people around him. With his order, the Japanese pirates on the ship rowed the oars desperately, and suddenly
Just came closer.
"Light the fire~"
Li Yuanshan was very calm and silently calculated the distance between the two parties.
"Throw~"
When the other party was only a few meters away from his own ship, he gave an order and threw an explosive pack towards the other party's ship.
The other party's ship was relatively short, and Li Yuanshan and others were riding in big ships. They were condescending, so it was easy to throw the explosive packets, and they were thrown directly onto the deck of the other party's ship.
"Boom~"
With a loud noise, the explosive package exploded. Under the terrible impact, the iron nails, iron sheets, etc. inside the explosive package were shot out, instantly blowing up the Japanese pirates on the deck of the ship. Their flesh and blood flew everywhere.
At the same time, under the huge explosive force, the ship was directly blown open in the middle and began to sink slowly.
"Okay~"
"Beautiful~"
Li Yuanshan easily killed one of the opponent's ships with explosive packs, and Li Yuanshan clenched his fists in excitement.
"Notify other ships immediately to use explosive bags. This thing is very useful."
Li Yuanshan immediately gave an order to the people around him, and soon the flag carriers began to convey this message to other ships.
Soon, loud noises began to be heard near other ships, and explosive packets were continuously thrown towards the Japanese pirates and pirate ships that were rushing towards them.
The terrifying Japanese pirates and pirates originally thought that they could easily capture the other party's ship once they got close to the other party. However, as soon as they got close to the other party, explosive packets fell from the sky, directly blowing them up and leaving corpses everywhere.
.
The power of explosive packs is amazing.
It was filled with a lot of gunpowder, plus iron nails, iron sheets, etc. The huge impact produced when the explosives exploded, coupled with the lethality of the iron nails and iron sheets, combined, these Japanese pirates had no time to use it.
His strengths were directly overturned by this terrifying explosive bag.
"Boom~"
With loud noises, the approaching ships were blown over one after another. The few pirates who were not killed fell into the water and began to struggle desperately.
Some lucky ships approached the big ship, and each hook fell on the ship. The Japanese pirates and pirates wanted to rush forward excitedly, but they found that the ship behind them was blown up by the terrible explosives. They were dumbfounded and could only watch.
Some looked at the spears thrust from the ship, or saw themselves being cut off from the ropes and falling into the sea.
The scene was very chaotic, but the advance team firmly guarded their ship and kept throwing explosive packets down, blowing up the Japanese pirate ships surrounding them.
A few miles away on the sea, the Matsuura had already begun to change direction and was preparing to evacuate. The ship was pricking her hands and the wind was blowing hard.
The Matsuura was already in trouble. Under the precise artillery attack, several more shells fell on the Matsuura, making several large holes and killing dozens of Japanese pirates.
Wang Zhi's face turned pale, and Matsuura Takanobu felt as if his parents had died. This defeat was so miserable that almost the entire army was destroyed except for the few large ships around him.
The opponent's terrifying artillery, as well as the explosive packets that could be thrown at close range, lingered in his mind like a nightmare.
"They want to run away~ chase them, beat them hard and send them all into the sea to feed the fish~"
