Chapter 694: Trap

"Did those Komu Army fight so hard to get the fleet to anchor here?"

Jiang Lang couldn't help but think that even if the warships of the Komu Army were burning together, they would fight until dark even if they were burned. They were obviously ambushed in this sea area in advance. To a great extent, the fleet's supply route was leaked. At that time, the fleet passed through that sea area in the afternoon. If there were no enemies, of course they would not be docked on this island. Once they passed this island, there would be no islands in the hundreds of miles ahead. After a day and night sailing, the fleet entered the area controlled by the Ming Navy. In this Ming fleet, fifty Komu Army warships were just appetizers and there were no fears at all. Moreover, there were no islands in this sea area, so of course they were not suitable for small boats such as rafts to approach.

Now it seems that the real killer move of the Komu Army is actually here. The woods are dense, providing the most direct materials for making bamboo rafts. Moreover, it was dark when the fleet arrived here, so there was no time to check here and there was no ambush. Of course, they did not expect that there would be ambush here. The reason why the Komu Army did not care about casualties was probably just to drag the Ming fleet, but they did not expect that the Ming fleet was too powerful, beyond their imagination, and caused such huge losses. Of course, this was something that the Komu Army had unexpectedly caused. However, this was caused. They did not want the meat from the mouth to fly, so they launched an attack according to the plan, and the fleet fell into the trap of the Komu Army.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lang couldn't help but shake his head slightly. He really didn't expect that Mu Jun had been smooth sailing for him all the time. He didn't expect that he would fall into a trap of Mu Jun at this time.

But now is not the time to sigh. Kou Mu Jun has prepared a trap for himself here. Although he has accidentally gotten in, it does not mean that Kou Mu Jun will win. The Ming fleet will not be defeated by this trap!

When warships break down, in order to ensure the safety of warships, they all use circular mooring, transport ships inside and warships at the outermost point. Now it is not easy for warships to set sail urgently. After all, this power is the wind rather than the power of the warship itself. There is a time among them, let alone so many warships, so this period is also the most dangerous moment.

Now, the tactics used by the Komu Army are the tactics of killing the ants. The big ship is your target and it is easy to fight. This small boat is not easy. And it is integrated. But when these bamboo rafts are approaching, they do not use the previous tactics of bombing the ship. Gunpowder has become a very scarce material for them. Therefore, their purpose is to seize the ship. When they get closer, they throw flying claws, and then climb the rocket onto the warship, seize the warship. On the warship, there are what they want, especially the advanced artillery technology of the Ming Dynasty.

But they did not expect at least one thing, that is, the Ming Dynasty discovered them in advance. Originally, they could approach them quietly and submerge on the warship quietly, but they did not expect that the weather was good tonight, which provided a very good view for the soldiers patrolling in the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty repaired the warship all night, which was a bit unexpected to them. However, the Ming Dynasty warship was about to set sail at dawn, which was also the only opportunity for them, so they began to attack with a hint of luck.

However, there was no luck in the war. In the end, the Ming Dynasty warships discovered them. The warships near the island immediately responded. The gunners entered their positions one after another. Although they couldn't see clearly, they could probably aim at it. There were really many enemies.

At the same time, the soldiers on the warship also picked up weapons one after another. Because of the special structure of these ships, the guns were unable to play a role, especially at such a long distance. However, the Ming soldiers immediately replaced the rockets. The rockets could not penetrate the wooden boards that could not even be shot through, but they could guide the gunners. At night, this flame was undoubtedly a very good thing to indicate the target.

Amid the rumbling cannons, many of the rafts of the Gumu Army suffered devastating blows. Even if the shells were not exploded, the powerful impact was enough to break these rafts. Those on them were lucky enough to survive, but if they were lucky, they would not be lucky.

Of course, the gunners of the Ming Dynasty were not fools. They were already considered veterans of old hands when the shell would explode after it was released. They knew better than anyone else. So they reduced the charge of the shells fired, then raised the guns as high as possible, turning the direct shells into curved grenades. In this way, the shells exploded in the air, and the iron chips after the explosion were directly scattered from above like a heavy rain, causing great damage to the Koumu Army. The simple raft can block the guns and bullets in front, but cannot block the things falling from the head.

While the warship was desperately blocking the attack of Komu Army, the transport vehicle was speeding up to drive out of this sea area.

As soon as you go out to sea, these rafts will not catch up at all.

However, the Komu Army still showed the spirit of the warship during the day. Even though it encountered a strong counterattack and suffered a lot of casualties, it still attacked here unyieldingly.

Finally, after suffering a lot of casualties, they had already relied on the main guard ship of the Ming Dynasty. However, the guard ship was too high, and it was completely comparable to the city wall from the water surface to the side of the ship. It was obviously much more difficult to climb the city wall than to climb an ordinary city wall. The only thing they could rely on was flying claws. Once they approached, the baffles on the raft would have no effect for the Ming soldiers, so they picked up rifles and started designing them one after another. And the distance they advanced was almost unnecessary to deliberately aim.

Originally, they thought that getting close was the beginning of victory, but they did not expect that getting close was not the beginning of victory, but instead they took the first step into hell. The dense bullets exceeded their imagination, and the design speed was fast and hardly any gaps were found. Moreover, because they were worried that they would accidentally fall into the sea, the armor on their bodies became a burden. Without wearing armor, they could not resist the whistling bullets. As for their flying claws, after seeing them, the soldiers shot at the climbing Gumu Jun, and they had no way to avoid them.

Now war has focused on the cooperation of multiple forces. Once a single army encounters a contradictory army, it is likely that it will pay heavy casualties but will not play any major role. Just like now, the Komu Army has no other force to cover it, and there is no weapon that is more powerful than the rifles in the hands of soldiers on the warship as firepower suppression. Even some bows and arrows have caused casualties to the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. However, this kind of firepower suppression is not enough. Therefore, the Komu Army who boarded the ship or the ships near it is exposed to the firepower of the Ming Dynasty warships, and has become a living target.

The sound of cannons on the entire sea surface has not stopped. The closer we get to the warship, the more dense the rafts of the Komu Army, and the easier it is to design the artillery as firepower support. Moreover, the muzzle is very small, so there is no need to worry that the Komu Army can get in from here. Of course, there are also unlucky Komu Army who just encountered the launch of the cannon when climbing, and they were instantly beaten into meat sauce.

In addition to the sound of cannons, there were the sound of gunfire that was as dense as fried beans. The rifle that could fire at least ten bullets in a minute formed a very powerful firepower net, which made the Mu army unable to cross the thunder pool at all. In addition, there were screams, and desolate screams echoed on the sea, turning the sea that should have been calm into like hell.

Of course, the lucky Komu Army successfully boarded the warship, but the Ming Dynasty was greeted by the dismemberment of the corpse.

The battle continued, and the Komu Army still did not retreat, maintaining the almost crazy offensive momentum just now. At the same time, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty did not give up. The weapons in their hands were constantly fired. This kind of warship could carry at least 300 people. Apart from the gunners, nearly 200 people could enter the battle. Now the war against the Komu Army has basically ended, so the equipment on these escort warships is relatively good, at least they have started to install rifles on a large scale. With such reliable weapons, the Ming soldiers turned the ship into an insurmountable natural danger. If the Komu Army must force it to cross, it will naturally have to pay a very heavy price.

With the obstacles of the warships in front, the transport ships had already begun to sail to the sea. Of course, some Komu Army crossed the guards' warships and directly attacked the transport vehicles, because the side of the transport vehicles was much shorter than the side of the warships, but they made a mistake in Ruyi's plan. Although the transport ships had shorter sides, the soldiers on them had rifles and other weapons, and there were very few people going to attack the transport ships, so the few Komu Army's transport ships could still deal with it.

Finally, all the transport ships were basically all gone out of the sea, and the rafts could no longer catch up. The protection work of the escort warships was completed smoothly. At this time, the warships also began to raise their sails and began to sail towards the sea. Although the warships were surrounded by rafts of the Komu Army, these rafts could not stop the warships from advancing and directly hit them. Suddenly, the raftsmen turned over and the Komu Army fell into the water one after another.
