The cannon is bombarded by the clouds

The flagship of the Asia Minor, the Eastern Roman Admiral Prussia, was holding a monocular lens, targeting the steel giant of the Ming Dynasty.

"God, they really made it!"

The adjutant Wilson next to him looked disapproving and said, "God General, what you see is a giant turtle wearing heavy armor. These Orientals think that the bigger the warship, the better, which is simply too funny."

"Wilson, you've seen the drawings. This is an ironclad ship, not a treasure ship!"

"So what?"

Wilson shrugged and said, "The Orientals have just lifted the sea ban. In fact, they don't know how to fight at sea at all. Such a huge warship must be very slow to move. We can completely defeat them by our speed advantage!"

The Eastern Roman Empire, also known as the Byzantine Empire, has a very long history.

However, just a year ago, the capital of Constantinople was conquered by Sultan II. From then on, the Ottoman Empire officially replaced the once-prosperous Eastern Roman Empire.

After the defeat of Eastern Rome, Queen Dosia took advantage of the chaos to escape from the sea and took the remaining navy to travel far away. Finally, she settled on Ceylon Island and began to accumulate strength to prepare for the recovery of Constantinople.

At this moment, Peng Qing's fleet returned to sail, so they set their sights on the east and sent the admiral Prussia to contact this mysterious country.

The Prussian fleet sailed eastward, but was driven away by the Ming navy cruising in the South China Sea because his ship carried weapons and belonged to warships. Once it entered the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, it was considered an invasion.

In desperation, Prussia had to return to the voyage and established a small base on the island of Mahara, and then waited for an opportunity to contact the commander of Qiongzhou Guard Zhang Shiying.

As for how to connect... Haha, gold is a good thing. In this world, few people can withstand the temptation of wealth.

Over the past year, he not only successfully entered the Ming Dynasty's waters, but also established a port on Qiongzhou Island and smuggled a large amount of money and made huge profits.

By chance, he also obtained the drawings of the ironclad ship being built by the Ming Dynasty!

When he saw the drawings, Prussia was shocked.

The steam engine system depicted in it is really incredible. It may be because this technology is too advanced. Even the Eastern Roman Navy, which has a long history, does not believe that this thing can be really built.

So Prussia sent the drawings back to Ceylon and continued his smuggling career.

Although he knew very well that his behavior was not allowed, so what?

He has seen the combat effectiveness of the Ming fleet. Although the treasure hull is huge, it is all used for cargo loading. The firearms equipped on the ship are extremely limited, and his fleet has rich combat experience and strong mobility. If you take a step back, even if you can't beat it, can't you run away?

How can those bulky treasure ships catch up with their Asia Minor?

As for the ironclad ship being developed, it sounds very incredible, but it is just a few imaginary imaginations.

However, when he saw the ironclad ship falling from the sky with his own eyes, he was shocked again.

The giant ship is more than five times the size of the Asia Minor flagship. If two ships collided head-on, their Asia Minor ship would be smashed immediately!

"His Excellency General, our allies are here!"

Prussia moved the lens tube and saw the Qiongzhou Guard's ship following him.

He immediately understood that today's battle was inevitable.

"Fight, may God bless us!"

"Don't worry, Your Excellency General, our Flying Ray is very fast."

"The ship was equipped with steel armor all over the body. The Flying Ray was not fire enough. She used the flag language to let the Moray go up, telling Captain John to use his speed advantage to deal with the other party."

"Please see, your Excellency General, our allies are ready!"

Prussia observed carefully. In the monocular mirror, two Qiongzhou Guards followed on both sides of the ironclad ship.

It seems to be a coordinated combat, but in fact...

Bang!

Suddenly, a loud bang came, and Prussia was shocked and looked forward again.

Boom!

A huge explosion sounded, and the sea suddenly burst into flames.

Through the telescope, Prussia really saw that its Flying Ray frigate was shattered in the middle.

Yes, crush!

This is a unique flowering bullet in the Ming Dynasty, and it is also a heavy type.

The Flying Ray shattered in an instant, and the people on the boat didn't even know what was going on, so they broke their bones and swelled up ashes along with the wreckage of the ship.

On the Zheng He, Zhu Qizhen saw this scene clearly with a telescope.

“Beautiful job!”

Suddenly, a voice came from his ear: "Master, be careful!"

Zhu Qizhen took off his telescope and saw Fan Zhong rushing towards him.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

A series of explosions sounded, and before Zhu Qizhen could realize what was going on, he was already pressed under Fan Zhong.

Immediately afterwards, he clearly felt the hull trembling.

Damn, it was attacked!

However, the enemy ship is still hundreds of steps away, and one of them has just been killed, how could it be that it could launch an attack so quickly?

Suddenly, he thought...

Qiongzhou Guard!

Zhu Qizhen pushed Fan Zhong away in a panic and said angrily: "Zhang Shiying rebelled, right? Open fire and blow his fuck!"

Due to close fire, although the hull was protected by iron armor, it still suffered some damage.

In the lower-level gun cabin, five gunners suffered varying degrees of trauma.

Lu Qian immediately ordered: "The reserve gunner is on the top, listen to my order, open fire, and fight back!"

A prepared gunner immediately came up and ignited the lead.

Zhang Shiying stood at the bow of the ship and was ecstatic when he saw his cannon hit accurately, but he soon couldn't be happy.

Because after a round of cannon volleys, the ironclad ship just shook slightly, and then...is it okay?

At the same time, he saw the dense, dark muzzles aimed at him.

I can't even count how many...

"Sir, you'd better go back to the cabin!"

Zhang Shiying looked bitter: "It's useless..."

His expression was helpless and tragic, because he knew what was about to happen.

boom!

boom!

boom!

Sixty cannons fired alternately on both sides of the ironclad ship, and countless muzzles ejected dazzling flames.

He could even see the dark shells flying towards him...

Boom!

Boom!

Countless shells smashed the two ships into pieces, leaving only the splashing wood chips everywhere.

The fate of the two ships was the same as the Flying Ray just now, and there were only countless wreckage left on the sea.

The people on the boat didn't even have time to call for help...

Almost in an instant, the three warships disappeared, leaving only a piece of wreckage.

Now, only Zheng He, Asia Minor and Cong Eel are left on the sea.

Kim Young looked at all this in a daze. He couldn't even believe that the power of the ironclad ship was so terrifying.

Having an indestructible body of steel and invincible firepower, even if the gods descend to earth, is that the case?

Zhu Qizhen pointed ahead with a dark face and said angrily: "Go ahead at full speed, fuck it!"

Zheng He shouted and rushed towards Asia Minor.

The main gun at the bow of the ship had been refilled, but the Moray learned from the flying ray and began to swing irregularly.

"Report, the main gun cannot be locked!"

Zhu Qizhen said without hesitation: "Continue to move forward and get closer!"

"yes!"

In the steam cabin, the boatmen worked hard to add coal, and all four boilers were turned on, and the entire cabin was filled with white gas.
