Chapter 154 A great victory! How to reward merit?

King Lu was angry at first because the Ming army dared to sneak attack and use tricks to burn down his own port.

But after the anger, there is deep fear.

He knew that the Ming army hated him to the core. He looked blankly and saw that there were only four or five battle-worthy ships left on the sea, and they were all small boats. All his loyal subordinates were dead and wounded, and there were only a dozen sailors on the ship.

However, the arrogant and arrogant Deer King, who had long despised the Ming army, quickly regained his composure. He ordered his men to raise a flag representing him, which was a deer head embroidered with ferocious antlers, which the Deer King himself designed for himself.

Family crest.

When King Lu raised the flag, the remaining ships on the sea immediately approached him. The Japanese who had narrowly escaped on the shore seemed to have seen the lighthouse. They used all available tools, including not limited to wooden sails, wooden barrels and even door panels, to sail toward

King Lu raised his flag and sailed away.

Su Ze, who had disembarked from the Crooked Hoof fleet and boarded the Changning Weifu ship, took the telescope from Lin Mojun and looked at the Japanese pirates gathering at the Luda Throne ship. Su Ze said:

"The centipede insect is dead but not stiff. If we can't kill this deer king at sea, he will definitely come back."

Lin Mojun nodded. The reason why the fire attack and explosion ship was so effective this time was because the opponent had no defense.

This kind of sneak attack tactic can only be used once. Next time the deer king attacks again, he will definitely not be so careless.

Therefore, this time the deer king must be kept at sea, and he must not be allowed to return to Kagoshima.

"Get ready for battle!"

Lin Mojun picked up the spear and handed the helm to the old helmsman beside him.

The old helmsman grabbed the rudder, and the men on the deck took up their weapons.

There was silence on the entire deck. Well-trained soldiers came to their posts one after another. The gunners began to prepare their guns. Even the Portuguese gunners were infected by this atmosphere and began to calibrate the muzzles.

Su Ze picked up a musket and naturally took over the command of the musket team.

[Blue Passive - Commander of Guns: Charm +1 when leading gun troops]

Although Lin Mojun was the one who trained the musket, the training plan was formulated by Su Ze. He was also the most accurate shooter in the entire Changning Guard.

Su Ze's reputation in the Changning Guard allowed him to quickly take over the musketry team.

"Coming!"

After receiving the remnants of the soldiers on the shore, the Deer King's ship opened its sails and rushed toward the exit of the lagoon with the deer's antler flag flying.

King Lu was worthy of being a big Japanese pirate roaming the southeastern waters. He was not afraid at all when he saw Lin Mojun's lucky boat, but took the lead and charged towards the lucky boat.

King Lu knew very well that he had to defeat this Ming army ship before he could have a chance to escape.

As long as he runs back to Kagoshima, with the reputation of the Deer King, he can quickly raise a new team to fight back. At that time, the Deer King will definitely massacre several Ming Dynasty guards to vent his anger!

Seeing the accelerating Japanese ship, the old helmsman held the rudder firmly. The sails on the lucky ship had also been raised. The war was about to break out!

Su Ze held the blunderbuss. This was his first time participating in a naval battle, and he was a little nervous.

Captain Alfonso came close to Su Ze, looked at the Japanese ship nervously and said: "This ship cannot withstand the impact of a full sail, and must get out of the way first."

Sure enough, the old helmsman made way for the exit of the channel and turned the bow of the lucky ship.

Captain Alfonso continued: "We must also increase our speed, otherwise we will not be able to catch up."

"Sail raised!"

The sailors immediately pulled the rope, and the sails were raised section by section. Sure enough, just as Alfonso said, the lucky ship also began to speed up.

"It's about to pick up the ship!"

After Alfonso finished speaking, the Fu ship and the Japanese ship were located on two parallel lines. Su Ze immediately understood the battle plan of the captains of both sides, which was to start a hand-to-hand battle from ship side to ship side.

Su Ze had an idea and shouted to the Portuguese gunner at the stern: "Can you aim?"

The Portuguese gunner nervously measured the distance, and then said: "I can't calculate it."

"Tell me the back of the gun!"

The gun table is a quick calculation table of the elevation angle of the cannon and the shelling distance. It is used by the gunner to quickly calculate the impact point of the artillery shell.

But now we were at sea, and the speeds of the two ships were different. In the panic, the Portuguese gunner couldn't calculate the angle of launch at all.

Although Su Ze's gunnery skills were only Level 1, his mathematics already reached Level 4. After quickly estimating the impact point, Su Ze gave the angle.

The Portuguese gunner quickly adjusted the muzzle, and with a bang, the shells flew towards the Japanese ship.

Unfortunately, although the shell hit the Japanese ship, it did not penetrate the deck. Instead, it hit a Japanese pirate and bounced off the deck into the sea.

Su Ze was a little regretful, but the caliber of the Fo Lang machine gun was too small, and the power of the shells was too small.

If it were a twelve-pound Hongyi cannon, this shot should be able to penetrate the deck of the Japanese ship.

But this cannon was effective. King Lu did not expect that the Ming Dynasty's Fu Ship actually had cannons. Under the deterrence of the cannon, the speed of the Japanese ship slowed down a bit.

Seeing the opportunity, Lin Mojun immediately shouted to the old helmsman: "Lean over! Join the ship!"

The old helmsman turned the rudder with his hand, and the lucky ship immediately hit the Japanese ship sideways.

"Adjust the muzzle! Change the shotgun!"

Su Ze immediately ordered the Portuguese gunners to put on shotguns, aim the muzzles at the flanks, and shouted to the gunners: "Everyone has it! Load it!"

The hard training on weekdays played its role. Even in the bumpy sea, all gunners still completed the reloading according to the training movements.

Viewed from the air, the Japanese boats rushed out of the flames and the Fuchuan led by Lin Liangjun started racing on the sea.

King Lu was afraid of the cannons on the ship, and the Japanese ships kept breaking out of the enemy's flanks.

But Fu Chuan kept chasing after him, clinging to the distance, and was about to engage the Japanese ship in a deadly fight.

The Deer King was extremely depressed. There was only one time in his memory that he was forced into such a situation.

He vaguely remembered that in front of Fuzhou City, the two broken ships from the remote guard station were fighting tooth and nail with their flagship.

But this time, he was even more disadvantaged. His fleet was completely destroyed, and the opponent was chasing him.

"emission!"

The two ships were already very close. Su Ze ordered the gunner to fire again. Lead balls flew out from the muzzle and landed on the deck of the Japanese ship.

The power and attack range of shotgun shells were not as good as those of solid artillery shells, but their damage range was large. Several Japanese pirates standing at the stern of the boat were hit by lead, staggered and fell into the sea.

Hearing the sound of the cannon again, King Lu's eyes turned red. He took out the Japanese sword from his waist and said to the helmsman: "It's too much to bully others! Fight hard! Hit me!"

The helmsman immediately turned the rudder full in the opposite direction, and the Japanese ship changed its sailing direction and hit the lucky ship hard.

"Meet the impact!"

Lin Mojun shouted, Su Ze also grabbed the mast, and the sides of the two ships collided with each other.

Bang!

The two ships collided and quickly bounced apart. The collision caused chaos for both ships.

At this time, the importance of military discipline was reflected. Changning Guards, who had better military discipline, quickly restored order from the collision. Lin Mojun raised his spear, pointed it at a Japanese pirate on the opposite deck, and threw it with all his strength.

The fiery red spear streaked across the sky, piercing the Japanese pirate standing on the deck. The red-tasseled spear streaking across the sky also became a silent charge signal.

The long-term tacit understanding meant that Lin Mojun did not need to issue instructions. Everyone did what they should do under the signal of the spear.

The old helmsman quickly filled the helm and pulled the Japanese ship close to him.

Lin Mojun took the lead, pulled out a long knife and jumped onto the Japanese ship opposite.

Immediately afterwards, other soldiers jumped onto the Japanese ship together with Lin Mojun, and the hand-to-hand combat began.

Su Ze was stunned for a moment. The gunners all turned their attention to him. Su Ze bit the bullet and shouted to the old helmsman: "Join the boat!"

"Got the order!"

[Agility, add points!]

Su Ze added the last bit of free attribute to his agility, then put the gun behind his back and grabbed a sling.

The old helmsman turned the rudder again, and the distance between the two ships was narrowed again. Su Ze glared hard and swung towards the Japanese ship.

When the remaining gunners saw Su Ze swinging over, they also swung their slings from the springboard and boarded the Japanese ship.

Su Ze stepped on the deck and rolled twice before regaining his balance.

At this time, chaos arose on the Japanese ship, and both sides were fighting together.

"Assemble! Free fire!"

Su Ze shouted, and the gunmen who boarded the Japanese ship all moved closer to him, and started to form a round formation in accordance with the movements of free-fire shooting by skirmishers.

There is no way to form a long formation on the ship. This kind of circular formation is trained for encounters.

After the gunners formed a circular formation, the first round of shooting began on the outside.

Seven or eight Japanese pirates fell down in response, and as the sound of cannons sounded, the first batch of soldiers who jumped from the ship were given a shot of cardiotonic, and one after another burst out with stronger fighting power.

The Japanese pirates were chopped to the ground one after another. When the Japanese's fierce force passed, the Japanese were about to collapse.
