"Send an order to the entire army to speed up. If it's too late, we won't be able to catch anything!"

Just when Jiugui Jialong was talking anxiously about another surprise force he had sent out, on the sea of ​​Guangyang Bay between Nanhai Island and Cat Island, a group of more than 300 ships including Anzhai ship, Guan ship, and small morning ship

The Japanese Navy, consisting of large and small warships, also rushed towards the north of Guangyang Bay under the urging of the commander.

Needless to say, this Japanese fleet was the partial division led by Kato Yoshiaki, commanded by Kuki Yoshitaka, to ambush the Ming Navy's surprise troops in a two-sided attack.

"boom!"

"Ah~"

However, just when Kato Yoshiaki gave another order to speed up the voyage, there was only a faint roar of artillery coming from a distance on the sea, and a huge explosion suddenly sounded, and only a ship was seen.

But it was suddenly 'bombed' and exploded on the spot, and the small morning boat next to it was also blown up and sank or capsized.

"Could it be that the Ming army was on guard?"

Hearing the sudden explosion, Kato Yoshiaki's first thought was that he had encountered the Ming army's fleet.

However, when he hurriedly checked the sea area ahead where the explosion came from, he did not find a Ming army warship.

"Could it be that the Ming army's artillery can already hit this far? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Seeing the large number of wooden planks and dead Japanese corpses scattered on the sea in front of the fleet, Kato Kiyomasa quickly dismissed the unbelievable idea in his mind.

Indeed, let alone the accuracy of sinking and overturning several warships with one cannon, if you want to hit such a distance out of sight, how big of a cannon would you have to achieve?

"Send the order and ask all ships to be careful and not to put any more gunpowder barrels on board..."

Smelling the smell of gunpowder smoke drifting in the wind, Kato Yoshiaki finally had to blame the gunpowder barrels stored on the ship for being accidentally detonated by soldiers.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

However, what Kato Yoshiaki did not expect was that before he could finish his words, huge explosions were heard one after another in the fleet.

Moreover, the ships that suffered a "gunpowder explosion" this time were not just smaller ships like Kansai. Even an Anzha ship in the fleet was not spared and was directly blown apart, taking with it the surrounding areas.

All ships, large and small, were overturned and more than ten were sunk.

Suddenly, the entire sea was covered with rotten wood, dead bodies and wounded soldiers, and there were endless screams and wails.

"Sir, so many ships have exploded with gunpowder. Could it be that there are Ming army spies infiltrating the fleet?"

Seeing these "gunpowder explosions" one after another, even the slowest person will know that everything cannot be such a coincidence.

"The fleet is ordered to stop advancing and all ships are ordered to carefully search for suspicious persons!"

In desperation, Kato Yoshiaki had no choice but to issue an order to stop advancing. While the Ming army in the search fleet was doing "careful work", he also began to rescue the Japanese sergeant who fell into the water.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

However, Kato Yoshiaki's movements were fast, but the Ming army's "Sesaku" in the fleet was even faster.

Just when he ordered each ship to search the Ming army's "details", the roar of "gunpowder explosion" sounded again throughout the fleet.

And what's even more outrageous this time is that these Ming army's "careful efforts" did not even let go of the small morning boats.

"Huh? No, there is no powder keg on the small morning boat. How could it cause such a big explosion?"

When Kato Kadomi saw that a small early ship was bombed almost empty, and after the wood chips flew, there was a sudden enlightenment in his heart.

‘This explosion can never be caused by the gunpowder explosion on the boat!’ ’

"Pass the order, send someone to get into the water, and see if there is a Ming army water ghost in the water!"

After reacting, this explosion was not caused by the poor gunpowder on the boat, Kato Kadomi quickly issued an order to investigate people.

Nympho

"Master Qilu, the water is not a clear military water ghost! It's just that there are many unknown people ..."

The time is not long. Several sedentary troops to investigate the water are more described as Kato Jiaming described what they see in the water.

"The underwater dragon king cannon!"

After getting the investigation of several soldiers, a 'artillery' that could explode at the bottom of the water was instantly jumped out of Kato Jiaming's mind.

That's right, what Kato Karomi Fleet encountered is the mines that can explode in the water by the Royal Navy.

However, compared with the backward mines that need to be detonated by the "Underwater Dragon King Artillery" speculated by Kato Karomi, what they encounter is more advanced.

This "mixed Jianglong" mines are semi -semi -fixed in the water with anchor cables. As long as a ship has touched the probe, it can cause the firestone to fire, thereby detonating the mines and killing the ship from the bottom of the ship.

But whether it is the "underwater dragon king cannon" or 'mixed Jianglong ", in short, it is a mines that can explode on the bottom of the water. As long as the warship of the pupa continues, there will be casualties.

Therefore, after making a clarity, Kato Karomi could not help but be dumbfounded.

"Adult, let's now ..."

Just as Kato Kadomi was dumbfounded, there was an inquiry of deputy general Takino Masaki.

"Sugano Jun, what do you think?"

After looking at it for a while, it had lost nearly a third of the fleet, but Kato Karomi looked at the question of the question about the question.

It's just like he doesn't know what to do now. In the face of this kind of situation that he has never encountered, Takino Zhengying is the same overwhelmed.

"Adults, it is better to return to the line of marching along the nine ghosts ..."

At the end, after staring at the big eyes and a small eyes for a while, Takino Zhengying proposed to retreat, and then entered the line of marching along Jiuga Jialong.

"No, so, don't say that the time is too late, just catch up, and I have lost the role of the strange soldier's assault!"

Before Guan Ye Zhengying finished speaking, Kato Kadomi shook his light head.

"That adult ..."

"With such a wide sea area, it is impossible for the Ming army to fill the entire sea area full of this 'underwater dragon king cannon'.

At the end, in the doubts of Masako Takino, Kato Jiaming was gritted, and he gave a command that made the early early ship in front of the thunder.

I have to say that although Kato Karomi is a bit cruel to take a life -threatening method, in this case, it is the most suitable way.

Otherwise, if you really want to follow the method of Masako Tano, wait until he rush to the battlefield, no matter who you lose, maybe the naval battle will be finished.
