Chapter 181 fierce battle
Chu Liuxiang was very depressed. For the first time, he found that those big Buddha machines were so powerful. He could fire seven shots by himself, and he didn't have to worry about overheating the barrel and explode the chamber.
Once it reaches the range, it will be much higher than his beloved Dafagong.
What’s even more depressing is that the guns can still be turned up and down, and the enemy can still be beaten within 100 meters.
Their bow gun group was already high, and the Japanese ship was shorter. At this distance, Dafagong and Half-Snake Cannon could no longer hit each other, and it was useless to add gaskets to the tail of the gun...
"Grandma, what kind of bullshit design is this?" Seeing the big Bolang machines spitting out flames and harvesting the lives of Japanese pirates in a bunch. Chu Liuxiang spat in depressedly, thinking that if this continues, the limelight will be stolen by the Folang machine gun crew, and the dream of special promotion will definitely be ruined.
The only thing that can be hit now is the Anzhai ship whose sails were broken and far behind.
But the Anzhai boat slab is very strong, and the grape bullet cannot be penetrated, and it is useless if the solid bullet is penetrated.
"I can only use my ultimate move, and use the red and red fire bomb!" Chu Liuxiang gritted his teeth.
"Ah, gunman, that thing is too risky, right?" The smokey gunman was startled, and the deputy gunman, loader, and gunpowder men also looked at the gunman in fear. They had practiced that thing twice in total, and they had to piss their pants in fear.
"Dog god, don't learn to shoot fireworks if you are timid!" Chu Liuxiang spat, "How can you shoot that turtle ship is so strong without a red fire bullet?"
Although the security team is not a military in name, the military law is not inferior to that of the Qi family army. If the artillery commander issued an order, the people below could only execute it.
The gunpowder hand had to drag out a thick iron charcoal bucket from the cabin and ignited the charcoal in the bucket with a torch. When the blue flames burned, he clamped four hollow iron magazines into the charcoal bucket.
"Captain, how long will it take?" The gunners who had no guns were loading the Longqing-style rifle for self-defense, while watching the gunpowder hands sweating provoking the flames and grinding iron balls from afar.
"Wait." Chu Liuxiang glanced at them in anger, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
In theory, the shells should be burned red for later use at the beginning. But this thing is too dangerous. Once it falls on the deck, it can lead to a human tragedy. So the gunmen are very resistant to this thing. After several drills, even the gun captains on the ship were so scared that they dared not force the gunmen to prepare for this dangerous thing that sailors call "Red and Fire Bombs".
So at first, the gunpowder man who was responsible for preparing the ammunition didn't even light a charcoal bucket. After all, he was sitting under his butt with a bucket of fire, and it was too dangerous to light a bucket of fire.
~~
The bow turret over there was closed, but the Big Bo Lang machine here was very prosperous.
Nearly two hundred Flang aircraft on twenty warships roared at the same time, forming a dense cross-fire network, crazily harvesting the Japanese pirates on the deck.
Almost every ship was severely damaged, and there were many Japanese ships destroyed. The bodies of Japanese pirates were floating on the sea, and the injured people who fell into the water were crying and screaming, just like hell on earth.
Those little early ships that were seriously lacking protection even had many casualties and were injured. Almost all of them lost their motivation and drifted helplessly on the water, completely becoming the living targets of the coastal security team.
However, the side of those ships that closed the ship was higher, and the paddlers were rowing under the deck. The ability to break the shotgun was insufficient, so the damage to the paddlers was naturally limited. Therefore, even though the Japanese pirates on the deck had been destroyed, the paddlers were still rowing desperately, allowing the ship to close to the Ming army's ships.
The so-called "Shut Shut" is a ship that was set up on key navigation routes on the sea in the Middle Ages, and charged tolls for ships passing by, so it was named "Shut Shut Shut Shut".
Because I had to chase ships that were unwilling to pay tolls, the shutdown was focused on speed when it was designed and built. During the Warring States Period, this kind of ship was used as a military ship. The speed that erupted in a short time was indeed not comparable to that of sailboats driven by wind.
Therefore, although the Ming Dynasty fleet kept flowing along the sails and tried desperately to keep a distance, it was still approached by the Japanese pirates' ships!
Besides, the Big Bo Lang machine is not a real continuous cannon. After firing the pre-loaded sub-gun, the firing speed suddenly slowed down.
After all, I can't completely destroy the enemy with firepower alone...
~~
The two sides were only less than 30 meters apart and finally entered the attack range of the Japanese pirates.
The Japanese pirates lying on the deck had been waiting for this moment. They immediately lit the fuse and fired the "iron cannon" in their hands.
The so-called "iron cannon" by the Japanese is a mesh rope gun. In contrast to their rejection of artillery, they highly respected mesh rope guns and made a lot of imitations.
Speaking of which, it was the Portuguese brought by Wang Zhi back then who passed this technology to the Japanese...
Japanese craftsmen are still very energetic, or they are relatively rigid. They strictly follow the initial standards for the fire device and body tube production process of iron cannons, and meticulously create each musket. Therefore, the iron cannons they imitate have always maintained a high level, which is basically the same as the level made in Guangdong.
Hundreds of "iron cannons" fired, stone bullets, iron bullets and lead shots onto the deck of the black-tailed ship.
But the deck of the Uwei ship was exactly one meter higher than that of the deck of the ship. Under the threat of the Big Bo Lang machine, the Japanese pirates were unable to stand up and shoot, and the disadvantages in the following attack became more and more obvious.
Most of the projectiles were shot on the boat gang, and they could not hurt the hard iron wood at all.
A small number of the projectiles shot on the deck were blocked by all the sandbags built up high, causing almost no casualties.
The Marines on the deck also began to shoot against the bunker. They all under strict sea shooting training. Within 20 or 30 meters, they could use the well-crafted Longqing rifle to shoot with their well-crafted Longqing rifles.
Their mission is to find Japanese pirates that cannot be defeated by the Big Bo plane and resolutely annihilate them!
Although the Japanese pirates had tried their best to hide their bodies behind various covers, the Marines were condescending, with a clear view, shooting with rifles, with almost no blind spots.
After a roulette of guns, the Japanese pirates hiding in the cabin, the decks and behind the bow guards were screaming and being shot.
However, the fighting will of these Japanese pirates is still amazing, and of course they are helpless... They charge along the current and if they escape, they will have to go against the current. Isn’t that the artillery massacre given to the Ming Dynasty?
So you still have to bite the bullet and attack, and the chances of survival will be higher. They firmly believe that as long as you go to the side, the balance of victory and defeat will immediately tilt towards them!
The Japanese pirates continued to approach. After a gun was shot, they had no time to load them. They shot arrows at the black-tailed ship and threw torches. After throwing the torches on it, they threw oil tanks on the ship like a meteor hammer.
Fortunately, the officers of the Coast Security Team... Oh no, the police officers are all old men of the Qi family army. They are very experienced and have prepared fire prevention in advance. They covered the areas that are prone to fire with wet quilts, and also laid fireproof sand on the deck.
Therefore, although the Japanese's desperate attempt caused a certain degree of panic, they were quickly extinguished.
However, during the firefighting process, some security team members were still caught in an arrow and fell to the ground, causing casualties...
Moreover, the firefighting affected the firepower against the enemy. The Japanese pirates' ship finally came up. They immediately couldn't wait to put down the broken slab and prepare to climb the black-tailed ship as a ladder.
"Stop them!" The gunmen in charge of the commander's eyes were bloody, and they roared and ordered the Big Bo Lang aircraft to continue shooting, and at the same time ordered the Marines to take a bayonet!
The Marines took a foot-long bayonet from their waists and inserted it into the barrel. This was the second largest improvement of the Longqing style, allowing the musket to become a fire stick when it was close.
The Japanese began to climb the slab, and a hand-to-hand battle was right in front of them!
Unexpectedly, an amazing scene appeared at this moment. A black-tailed ship that fell at the end in the battle suddenly rushed towards the warships of both sides with full speed!
"Fuck!"
"Nani?!"
On the sea, there were also screams of exclamations from both Chinese and Japanese languages.
Before the screams fell, the black-tailed ship hit a pass in the middle. With a bang, the pass built by Songshan disintegrated directly in the middle. The Japanese pirates who were climbing onto the security team's ship fell into the water like dumplings.
Amid the cheers of the security team members, the black-tailed ship was still cast, and it smashed several closed ships that were crowded together one after another, and finally hit another black-tailed ship that could not be avoided, and then stopped.
Fortunately, everyone was hard enough, but the deck was overturned and the hull was fine.
Although only a few ships were crushed, it seriously damaged the morale of the Japanese and greatly boosted the morale of the security team!
At this time, the five armed sand ships in the rear formation finally turned around from their wings. Although they could not directly hit like the black-tail ship, they used fierce artillery fire to provide strong support to the besieged Wuwei fleet.
The Big Bo Lang machine, which was loaded again, sprayed shotguns on the crowded ships, causing the remaining Japanese pirates to suffer a catastrophe.
Most of the Japanese pirates on the ship were no longer ten, and the warriors in charge could only draw people from the oars to attack.
The paddlers were not even considered to be light feet, but they were just farmers who were fishing and farming. They were just fine in the cabin. As soon as they got on the deck, they saw the tragic scene of blood flowing into the sea and purgatory, and they were so scared that they were so scared that they were still connected to the side? It was almost the same to urinate...
Of course, there were also Japanese pirates rushing to the deck, holding a bright Japanese knife in their hands, and began to want to kill all sides!
However, what awaits them was the strongest formation on Earth in the 16th century, setting a record of war loss ratio in the cold weapon era. It was produced by Qi Jiguang and taught by Tong Zigong for the Japanese pirates - the "Mandarin Duck Formation"....
There is no way, the space on the boat is limited, and the mandarin duck formation of the twelve people cannot be placed. It can only be disassembled into the "Five Elements Array" to make do with it.
