The ironclad ship had already broken into the horizontal formation of the Ottoman right-wing fleet, and the metal collision angle ruthlessly tore the sailboat in front of it that had no time to dodge! The sailors on the sailboat were either torn apart by the impact angle in an instant, or fell into the cold sea water with the sound of the cracking sound of the galloping boat!

The broken galley was sinking, and the water was covered with broken wooden boards, survival sailors, and scattered turbans!

"Fire the cannon!" The ironclad ship rushed into the enemy formation, and the cannons on both sides were fired one after another, and the 40-pound cannons roared together. The sailboats on both sides of the ironclad ship were instantly destroyed or traumatized!

After the first round of shooting, the skilled gunner reloads the ammunition according to the standard procedure.

The ironclad ship disrupted the opponent's formation, and the Ottoman right-wing fleet was forcibly divided by the ironclad ship, falling into chaos!

As the ironclad ship attracted all the opponent's firepower, the Eastern Wu sailing battleship followed closely with four frigates and rushed to the opponent with almost no losses!

The sailboat that was originally severely damaged by the ironclad ship has not been completely destroyed, but the formation of the Eastern Wu followed closely with artillery to completely sink them!

The Governor of Rhode Island repeatedly commanded the fleet to siege these behemoths. The numerous sailing ships and galleys did not obey the command well, and they had a psychological shadow because they could not cause any obvious damage to the ironclad ship.

However, the battle lines led by the Iron Armor and the Soochow Ship had already passed through their formation, and all the ships were redirecting their direction, otherwise their artillery would not be able to hit Iron Armor and Sailing Ship. The more than 60 ships left were in chaos. The more ships there were, the more they could not even find traces of the enemy when turning!

The ironclad ships and the battle lines that followed were also changing their courses, and the port guns faced the chaotic Ottoman right-wing fleet from behind.

While sailing around the edge of the right-wing fleet, the fleet aimed the guns on the port side of the battleship at the Ottoman fleet!

At this time, the artillery of the Iron Craft, the Soochow USS Soochow and the four frigates had been reloaded!

"Fire the cannon!" The cannon leader gave the order, and the cannons inside the ship's side rose and fell into the enemy's fleet!

The Ottoman fleet was hit by fierce shelling, and there were heavy casualties and screams!

Huoshan Zandpasha's scalp was numb, and he found that the chaotic fleet could no longer accept his command!

The battle line formed by the ironclad formation was like a greedy snake, constantly eroding his fleet. The ships under his fleet did not dare to attack under the shelling, but instead curled up.

"Order all ships to fight in close combat! If there is a collision angle, I will hit you! If you retreat, you will behead you!" Seeing that the situation has lost control, Huo Shanzand Pasha could not command the fleet easily, and could only issue the simplest order - melee!

Seeing the instructions issued by the flagship, the captains who were executed after defeat were afraid that the oaring slaves were commanded to approach the ship.

But the ironclad ship and the five large sailboats behind are not so easy to approach. They always wander like pythons, and from time to time, they use the ironclad ship as sharp knives to crash into a group of short galleys and inferior sailboats.

"That is the enemy's flagship, destroy it!" Zheng Zhibao kept peeking at the battle situation while the commander, and he also noticed the most conspicuous and most treasured sailing ship by Huoshan Zand Pasha.

The ironclad ships and battle lines had hunting targets and began to sail towards the 1,000-ton sailboat where Huoshan Zand Pasha was located, destroying several wooden boats along the way!

Many Ottoman Empire's gallops and even old muskets and small firearms were on the sailboats, which not only did not pose any damage to the iron shells of the iron armor, but also did not cause effective damage to the wooden armor of the Soochow.

The big ship was moving quickly past the rolled waves that made the boat undulate!

"Sir Pasha, the black sea monster is coming towards us!"

"Fight against the side!" Huoshan Zandpasha wanted to escape, but there were many small and medium-sized warships around his flagship, and the sea was in chaos. Even if he wanted to escape, it was not easy!

This is the first time that Turkish sailors who are not very good at driving Spanish-style sailing ships to fight with this kind of ship to be used in sea battles, and their response is relatively clumsy.

When the 1,000-ton sailboat slowly turned around the hull to respond to the enemy with the side guns, the ironclad ships were approaching with the five sail warships behind him!

The terrifying 3,000-ton ironclad ship easily crushed the gallopy that could be less than 200 tons on its way, and another bunch of paddlers and sailors fell into the water.

They found that the iron armored ship like an iron mountain crushed past their heads and quickly dived into the water.

The 3,000-ton armored cruiser and the 1,000-ton Spanish sailboat are closely adjacent, and the soldiers on the deck can see the enemy clearly!

"No!" Huoshan Zand Pasha knew what the result of the two ships being close together meant!

Sure enough, the ironclad ship and the Spanish sailboat were only a distance of more than ten meters, and both sides fired fire almost at the same time!

A loud thunderous sound came from under the deck where he was, and he felt the huge hull tremble violently, a tremor that seemed like an earthquake!

Boom!!

A Spanish sailboat suddenly exploded, and the flames soared into the sky swept across the left cabin of the sailboat!!

Boom! Boom! The aftermath of the explosion continued, black smoke rolled, and the sailboat was sinking quickly! The fired broken wooden boards flew into the air!

The Ottoman Empire captured Spanish shipmakers, and the 1,000-ton sailboat he had worked hard to imitate was burned in a sudden explosion!

The big explosion even affected the parallel ironclad ships. The soldiers on the deck of the ironclad ship were almost injured by the flames caused by the explosion of the large sailing ships, and the strong airflow even lifted the navy caps on their heads.

"Is our artillery so powerful?!"

The gunner who fired the gun layer of the ironclad ship just now was stunned.

They fired fire to bombard the other's sailboat at close range. Although their artillery is more powerful and can penetrate the other's hull, at most it will make a hole and will never directly explode their ships!

"It should be that the other party's ammunition depot was concentrated..." said the artillery leader.

"This gun is really a magical cannon!" The gunners celebrated each other, and they had another military merit on their credit book!

"Beautiful job!" Zheng Zhibao couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw a big explosion in the flagship opposite in the command room.

The sailboat that the opponent finally built was exploded after firing a few rounds of artillery during the battle. If the Ottoman Emperor knew about this, wouldn’t he be angry to death?
