On the sea, two large ships, more than ten meters high and dozens of meters long, are one or two hundred meters apart, and together with hundreds of cannons, why did they not hit each other after a long time of firing? The key is on this wave! Because the hull is constantly shaking, the gunner is stuffed under the deck, and there is only a small cannon door in front of them to see outside. It is impossible to feel when the ship is in a horizontal state, so unless it happens, the shells fired either hit the sea water or jump into the sky, and only one tenth of the target can hit the target. Even if it is hit, if it is not a vital part, it will still be bounced away by the hull that is dozens of centimeters thick, which is difficult to penetrate. ▲∴▲∴, so in the naval battle at that time, sometimes it can be fought for several days, and then no one can sink anyone, making the gunner tired, or they will get close to the death, or everyone will stop working and go home.

With the method of Hong Tao plagiarizing from the French, although the firing frequency is slower, the accuracy is greatly improved. This is very consistent with Hong Tao's current needs. He does not need to shoot frequency, nor does he need to use iron ball rain to suppress enemy firepower. He also needs one shell to eliminate an enemy, which is lower in cost.

When a string of small doors suddenly opened on the side of the Jinhe boat, something was wrong on the other party's sailboat. But they still didn't hide, but went to the side of the boat to watch the fun. They did see the fun. Several large thick tubes quickly emerged from the small doors. As the two ships gradually overlap, they could even see someone shaking behind the small door. What are they doing?

In fact, the gun door was not used for war at first. It was a loading and unloading method developed by French merchant ships. Because there were too many rigging on the deck of the sailboat, it affected the loading and unloading of goods, the smart Frenchman opened many small windows on both sides of the ship to transport goods. Later, it was discovered by the British and plagiarized and turned into the firing port of the cannon.

"Bang...bang..." There were two loud noises, no, I saw the thick tubes spraying a stream of fire and smoke. Then I heard a loud noise. Then the ship that was leading the ship was hit by a big wave, and the hull was shocked instantly, shaking many people on the deck. Some people could still get up, and they were so dizzy that they didn't know what was going on. Some people simply couldn't get up, and their bodies were covered with wood chips. Some were not even full, half of them were left, and one-third were left.

"Ah...ah...ah..." All kinds of screams came from the deck. Some smart people felt that the deck was unsafe and quickly got into the cabin. But the scene in the cabin was even worse. Several large holes had been opened on the starboard side, and the same was true on the port side. Except for the sea water was pouring through these holes, the people in the cabin were almost nothing. The exploded wood turned into countless shrapnel pieces, and whoever was close to the hull was unlucky, and everyone was covered in wood, whirring blood. People who were not affected by the wood fragments were not much better. The cargo in the cabin was also blown up, and all the hard objects turned into shrapnel pieces.

In fact, in this round of shooting, only three shells hit the hull, and one hit the bow of the ship, and the remaining one was flying to unknown where the remaining one was flying. The distance of dozens of meters was not enough, and the five cannons fired volleys, making two sounds. The quality of the gunners can be imagined. But this did not affect the shooting effect. Three shells hitting the middle of the hull, passing through the middle of the hull without exception, drilling out from the other side, and punching the hull like a candied haws. These are six big holes. Not only the big holes, but the surrounding wooden boards were also shaken, and the two secondary keels were also broken, which pressed the pressure of the sea water. Crack! This sailboat with a displacement of 100 tons actually rose from the middle for more than a minute after being bombarded, and it turned into two ships, and began to turn on and drift north along the ocean current.

"Fuck! It's a bit interesting. What a pity. If the cannon can be filled with better effect, it will probably be able to smash it into pieces, right?" Hong Tao did not expect that the first round of cannon would achieve such brilliant results. He touched the stubble with a bit of hand on his chin and began to enter a state of reverie again.

The naval guns on the Jinhe River were only equipped with less than half of them, with ten 155 guns on the bottom and ten 135 guns on the upper floor. Not only were the guns on the Jinhe River more than half were empty, but the situation of the Haibo and Quanzhou was similar. The Qiongzhou and Guangzhou escorting merchant ships were only equipped with two 135 guns on the bow, and they were regarded as practice. There was only one reason: the production of artillery in Jinhewan was not enough, and in the short term, they could only be produced and installed a few, and each warship was decorated so that everyone had the opportunity to fire the gun.

"As soon as such a sharp weapon was released, Jinhe Company and the Strait Company were invincible on the sea. Congratulations!" Wen Nan also shocked the artillery fire just now. He had seen this new weapon exercise before, and knew that this thing was better than any pastel and catapult before. But like Hong Tao, it was the first time he had seen the actual combat scene. He was shocked and did not forget to congratulate Hong Tao.

"Old Wen, you have praised me once when I was killing people. It's not easy! You know, the more advanced the technology and the more advanced the weapons, the faster and more neat it will kill people. In the past, I used to use bows, arrows, swords and guns, and I was sweating for a long time to kill a few people. Later, I had grenades, which could kill people a hundred meters away. Now I have artillery, and I saw it. There was a sound of smoke, and at least dozens of people on the ship died. In a blink of an eye, things happened in a flash. Times have changed, and thoughts have to follow.

Change, you can no longer think about problems with old eyes and old ideas." Although I was not sarcastic this time, I was not called the Demon King, and I even had a little praise, Hong Tao did not feel it helpful. The two loud noises just now completely announced the arrival of another new era, and it was brought by myself. It should have arrived two or three hundred years later, but it turned out that I was prepared in advance. I was mentally prepared, and the people in Jinhewan were also a little prepared, but are others prepared in this way?

At this time, the sea strait was already in chaos. Although the three ships behind did not know what was sunk by the ship in front, they confirmed that this thing came out of the Jinhe River, because the large tubes behind the Jinhe gun door had been retracted. At first, everyone was curious and admired to watch this giant ship, and from time to time discussed why there were so many sails and people on its high mast. Now, no one was attentive to discuss these issues, turning the rudder, turning the sail, and crying. In an instant, they understood that this was the enemy who came to seek revenge. As for who the enemy was, they had no time to figure it out, so they ran away first.

Unfortunately, they could not escape. Just as they turned halfway, the five deadly big tubes emerged from behind the small window on the side of the ship. Well, now they have become devils, pointing to the power of someone who is pregnant. No one on the boat is willing to face them directly, and they even dare not take a look. They could not be sure whether the loud noise and the smoke were caused by blasphemy of the gods. They could only try to avoid their sight and control the ship to run to the shore with their waists. Hitting the reef and stranding were already a great happiness for the people on the three sailboats.

"Bang bang..." This time, the Golden River volley was finally about to come to a sound. The problem was that the sound was neat and the accuracy dropped again. Five shells actually hit only one shot, and the other four shots were all drilled into the sea.

"Bang...bang..." At the same time, the Haibo and Quanzhou behind them also fired fire. The second ship was much more lucky than the first. It was besieged by three ships and was almost knocked into a sieve. It was neither sunk nor dispersed. The problem was that the people on the ship were in trouble. Except for a few smart-minded people who jumped to the sea quickly, those who were still on the ship or who didn't jump quickly, were also flew around by debris flying everywhere, and the wooden thorns were like blood gourds, and they kept wailing.

"Order, stop shooting, there are no one on the two ships, don't waste shells!" After the third and fourth ships entered the shooting angle, Hong Tao issued a new order. Everyone's attention was on the shooting target just now, and even the lookout hand forgot his duties and went to see the fireworks, but Hong Tao did not forget. He had long discovered that the people on the two ships behind were diving and running away with all kinds of things.

Parcea Ma Port is a small port, smaller than Malacca Port. Behind the port is a residential area, with no city walls, only a few short wooden walls. Everything that happened outside the port just now had seen. At this time, several ships were parked in the port, but the people on the ship were running to the shore, and the sound of conchs also sounded. It was estimated that who were the people in the port warning to? The mouse flag hanging on the Haibo, which had already rushed into the port area, was probably not unfamiliar with them, at least no one would know. On the fortress of Malacca Port, there was a mouse flag and a copper coin flag, which was later burned by some people. Hong Tao believed that there were also murderers in Parcea Ma Port, whom he had already rushed into the port area, and he was about to start formal revenge.

After the Haibo entered the port area, he did not stop, but turned around and then stopped. At this time, the Jinhe and Quanzhou, who had been cruising outside the port, began to slowly enter the port. The Haibo was not going to attack here, it was detecting the water depth for the Jinhe. In fact, attacking such a small port is enough. The Jinhe battleship is really not suitable for offshore combat. If there are too many restrictions, if you are not careful, you will turn awesome into a pen.
