Chapter 457 High attack and high speed thunderbolt cannon
The flag was waving, and in addition to the Black Pearl, several flywheel battleships in front of him also came over. Compared with the lucky ships that slowly twisted their bodies, these flywheel battleships were as light and agile as swimming fish.
"Good opportunity, they dare not all come up. There are only five ships. There is nothing to be afraid of. Come on, follow me to rush out!" Xie Feng was not a purely reckless person. While commanding the fleet, he also paid attention to the situation around him.
Seeing that the flywheel warship had only divided half of the ships to block the ship from the front, and the other ships were still patrolling around, he was overjoyed and shouted, calling on other maritime merchants to join the ranks of breaking through.
"The fire thing on their ship is similar to Huihui cannons. It is very slow to launch. If you try to lose some ships, you will always have a way out. If you surrender, relying on those broken ships, we can't even go back home. Could it be that you want to settle down in Japan?" The ship owner also shouted at the top of his lungs. As his words spread, many people were indeed moved.
Everyone saw the previous naval battles, and only less than forty ships were burned down by eleven vehicles and ships.
At present, the total number of ships headed by the Xie family has exceeded forty. If they attract the attention of the enemy, can everyone be mowed?
After all, the enemy's eleven ships had to defend such a large area of water, and only a few could launch an attack on the scene in front of them. Seeing the hope of breaking through, they were worried about the outcome after surrender. Most of the maritime merchants were moved and took action.
The Xie family fleet was the first to start. By the time the flywheel warship came, the ship had already started to speed up. As the waves were rising and falling, Xie Feng looked back and saw that most of the ships had already set sail. He felt very confident that as long as the fleet followed, the Xie family would lose five ships at best.
It is understandable to meet the plague god on a narrow road. Of course, he was also careful, that is, he did not let his flagship rush forward, but used other ships to open the way.
I have to say that this person is also a talented person. He even has the time to adjust the formation of the fleet and keep enough distance between each other to avoid being blocked by the fired ship.
"Bang!" The flywheel warship that was coming towards us adhered to its usual style. After saying that, he did not hesitate when he started. Five incendiary bombs hit the five leading ships respectively.
The sailors on the boat were very clever. The fire flashed and no one went to put out the fire. They knew it was futile and they jumped into the sea and swam towards the other ships in their homes.
At this time, time is life, and the fleet must run away. No one will deliberately stop the ship to save people and want to be rescued, so he can only grab the time by himself.
"Just now! Hurry up, take out the oars, speed up, speed up!" Xie Feng didn't even glance at the corners of his eyes at the sailors. He roared with red eyes, fearing that he would miss the opportunity to exchange for five lucky ships and the gold and silver loads on them.
"What should I do if the pirate ship of the shopkeeper is not moving away from it..." The first person to find out the abnormality was the helmsman. He pointed at the five flywheel warships still flying in front and shouted loudly.
"Then you need to say? Crash into it! If you knock over these five ships, you might have a chance to turn defeat into victory!" Xie Feng was also surprised, but he didn't have time to think about it for a while, so he just gritted his teeth and stomped the board desperately.
For collision, the Fu Ship is not as sharp as the boardwalk ship or the Anchor ship, but it is much stronger than the flywheel warship. The size of the Fu Ship is at least three or four times that of the flywheel warship. If it hits it in half, is there any need to say whether it wins or loses?
"Crash him, knock him!" Seeing that the Xie family's fleet crashed at full speed, the fleet behind them was also filled with joy.
Compared to being chased by the head, the solution to the other party is the first and for all.
The hope of breaking through has increased greatly. Even the most timid people have now gathered up the courage, shouting to cheer Xie Feng up and command the sail to raise the anchor.
"A group of idiots." At the same time, on the Black Pearl, the main gunner Wu Yongjian looked at the Xie family's ships coldly, as if he was looking at a dead person.
It was completely different from what the maritime merchants expected. Although the sound of the first launch was still in his ears, he had already restored the thunderbolt cannon to the waiting state and could launch a second attack immediately. Although the gunners of the other warships were not as fast as him, the loading work also came to an end.
The reason for this is also very simple. Whether it is weapons or ships, as long as they are tied to lightweight, the following are often the advantages of being convenient to use, high speed or frequency, simple to make, less time-consuming, etc.
Like flywheel warships, the thunderbolt cannon is also a light equipment. Its only function is to launch the incendiary bomb. As long as it can ensure a certain range and corresponding precision, it is enough.
The thunderbolt cannon sacrificed its power to change beams, not only precise xing, but also launch frequency was one of them. It was not revealed before, because of the limitation of ammunition stock, but now it cannot afford to save ammunition. If the Xie family fleet does not hit the head-on and deter other maritime merchants, maybe they will break through.
Hundreds of ships broke through together. Not to mention whether Xie Hong can catch all of them, even if they catch up, there is not enough ammunition. Therefore, they need to be given enough deterrent so that most people dare not run away. "When firing with all their strength, there will be no mercy to kill!" Just like the night of Thunder and Fire in the Forbidden City, Xie Hong coldly issued a killing order.
So, the tragedy inevitably happened.
"Bang!" When the flywheel warship was still a hundred steps away, Xie Feng was frightened and saw that the enemy ship had another volley. Including his ship, five more ships were hit together. Then the flames suddenly appeared, and the sailor jumped into the sea... It was completely repeating the previous scene.
There must be something different, that is, the sailors were stunned before jumping into the sea, and after jumping into the sea, they did not swim on the boat next to them. They turned their direction and swam towards Nagasaki Port.
It is obvious that the sailors completely lost their confidence in breaking through. They believed that it was a dead end on the ship, only Nagasaki Port and only land was a safe place.
"How is it possible... In the blazing fire, Xie Feng stood alone at the bow of the boat, looked around helplessly, and was very puzzled, and then turned into sadness, because he saw that the tragedy continued...
The interval between the second volley and the third volley was shorter. The fire of the first five ships had just spread to half of the hull, and the fire was in full swing on the second batch of ships that caught fire. At this time, the five enemy ships had already carried out the third volley.........
As a result, the fourteen ships of the Xie family were wiped out, and the other one was the boat of the shopkeeper of the Tu family. I don’t know whether it was because he was eager to escape or his courage, the shopkeeper rushed to the front of his fleet, so he was the first to be hit.
"Why? Why? This is too fast, it's completely unreasonable!" Manager Tu roared unwillingly. He couldn't figure out how the launch frequency could be so high if he could hit a 200-step catapult.
"There is a mechanism called spring... Haha, this is the power of natural science." Although it was hundreds of steps away, with the strong sea breeze, Xie Hong still heard the shouts of the sea merchants in his ears, and his smile became even brighter.
The enemy's surprise and unwillingness were the most pleasant sound to him. Compared to shipbuilding and farming, in fact, the clever things like thunderbolts are what Xie Hong is best at, and it is easy to increase the rate of fire.
The volley only went to the fifth round.
After all, the lucky ship is a sailboat and has a lot of loads. Before the ship following behind can start, the several volleys here have been completed.
It seemed as if there were only a few breaths. The two fleets of Tu had disappeared after Xie Feng, who was still standing foolishly at the bow of the ship, there were no figures on the other ships, and replaced by the dense heads in the water.
The sail was lifting, the anchor, the helm and the paddling, the hands were subconsciously let go, the sail fell down again, and the anchor fell back into the water, the paddling floated on the water surface and the surging heads in between, and the surging heads reflected in the fun... Except for the steward who was at the helm after some wind and waves, the rest of the others were all looking at the scene in front of them in horror.
In fact, even if they were not dazed, the road ahead would be impossible. More than twenty burning torches had completely blocked their way forward.
With the power of the five warships on the front, the six flywheel warships that were patrolling around the surroundings also leaned over, like a group of foraging sharks wandering around the huge merchant fleet.
The two toughest companies are already over, and the rest of the maritime merchants are all terrified.
"Is there anyone else who wants to try the method with their own body?" Ma Ang's voice sounded again. This time, the response to him was silent. Even the sailors struggling in the water were silent at this time, for fear that they would accidentally attract the attention of these killing gods and cause the disaster of killing.
"So, is there anyone who wants to surrender? Those who surrender first can choose the ship first." In addition to the four slab boats falling behind, the North Korean fleet has arrived, densely lined up behind the flywheel warship, which makes the latter's momentum even more.
"The villain is willing to surrender, so I choose the one... The first one to jump out was the sea dog. He is more sensible than others and has heard some rumors about Xie Hong.
After seeing Xie and Tu's family's fate, he already realized that it was unlucky today. So, when everyone else was watching around and looking for a good opportunity to break through, Haigouzi was observing the ships of the North Korean navy.
As the saying goes, there is a big one in the slut. Although the North Koreans can build slab boats, they may not be able to explode occasionally and build one or two good boats.
The sea dog had good eyesight and quickly picked a boat. After Ma Ang asked, he immediately chose it.
"Oh? Very good, that one is right? Wow, you have good eyesight, you are lucky, this boat is yours." Ma Ang said with satisfaction, then nodded to the messenger and signaled the other party to call the ship over. "Let your ship leave the brigade and hand over to the people on that ship. Be honest, don't act like it, otherwise..." He pointed to the fire wall on the sea.
"I dare not, I dare not..." The sea dog wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and nodded in a hurry.!.
