At this moment, the 18mm 50-pound heavy howitzer in the middle of the port side of Baturu-1, the two 15mm 30-pound medium howitzers, and the three 12mm 15-pound main howitzers all roared!

At this time, the British on the Wales would shake their heads when they heard it. This burst of sound was much worse than the salvo fired by their 18-pound heavy guns!

As the captain, Zhuang Jiyun did not retreat at all. He kept standing on the port side of the first deck and carefully observed the effect of this round of bombardment with a telescope.

In the round of bombardment just now, two of the three heavy cannons weighing more than 30 kilograms in the middle were hit, and one of the other three main naval guns of 15 kilograms was hit!

The 18mm heavy gun hit the right rear part of the stern of the Wales near the waterline, the 15mm heavy gun just hit the right side of the middle stern gun, and the 12mm main gun hit the bow!

"Boom..."

"Boom..."

The noise caused by the two heavy cannons was very large. The armor-piercing part of the grenade, which was 18 millimeters in diameter and weighed 50 kilograms, drilled through the gap between the copper plate and the wooden board. Due to the obstruction of the copper plate, the armor-piercing part of the grenade penetrated into the grenade.

In an instant, the warhead immediately pointed upwards and detonated immediately after drilling in for about twenty centimeters!

The grenade, which was fifteen millimeters in diameter and weighed thirty kilograms, penetrated into the stern gun emplacement and exploded immediately, killing all the gunners at the stern and igniting the gunpowder barrel there!

As mentioned before, the stern of the ship is where Western sailing battleships store ammunition. Although the heavy grenade did not completely penetrate the forty-centimeter-thick ship's side due to the obstruction of the copper plate, the violent explosion still detonated its ammunition storage!

"Boom..."

After an earth-shattering loud noise, the Welsh was completely covered by a large ball of fireball and gunpowder smoke!

The violent explosion also caused its hull to tilt suddenly to the north!

Zhuang Jiyun put down the telescope.
Chapter completed!
