The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

The latest station name: Mubi Pavilion latest website:

As long as the tall enemy ship from far away opens fire, people will feel its mighty aura.

The pride of the Kingdom of Portugal, the three-deck first-class battleship "Santa Teresa"!

When it fired on one side of the artillery, it was a fiery wall of fire!

Hit on the wooden walls of the battleships of the South China Fleet, all of them were bombarded with tilted hulls, broken masts, large canvases falling, heading changes, casualties, and chaos!

One inch long is one inch strong. Now it is one inch big and one inch strong. "St. Teresa" is equipped with 42-pound heavy guns. The power is indeed strong enough. Ordinary battleships such as small battleships with 60 artillery that come together to make up the number of small battleships will encounter 42 pounds. The baptism of the cannon, I am afraid that it will fall under a round of cannon fire.

Fortunately, most of the battleships of the forward of the South China Fleet are "Southeast Asia-class" three-tier battleships. The battleships of this class have 76 guns, are sturdy-skinned and can be used, and they are able to support them with 42-pound shells.

In contrast, the main gun of the South China Fleet has a maximum caliber of only 32 pounds. It is not that it cannot be equipped with a larger caliber gun. It even developed a 48-pound heavy gun. In the early years, Yan Changwu pursued larger, thicker and harder weapons. , And later discovered that he had gone astray.

The 32-pound gun is relatively good, the caliber is slightly smaller than the 42-pound gun, but the range is not small, the penetrating power is stronger, and the reloading speed is faster.

After testing, in a unit time, the 32-pound gun can project more iron shells than the 42-pound gun. That is to say, it is not just a matter of pursuing the cannon. There is a problem of marginal revenue.

And over time, as long as the gunner survives and ammunition is available, the 32-pounder can outperform the 42-pounder.

"This is not the best choice, it is the worst choice!" Yan Changwu said.

Another advantage is that there is one less caliber, one less shells are shipped, and one less gunner can be trained, which can greatly reduce logistical pressure.

Yan Changwu’s ideas are novel, data-heavy, and science-respecting. The benefit is that even an enemy who can tie his fleet at the beginning or even form an advantage will be dwarfed by chance. The Chinese believe that it is God’s blessing. I don’t know that there is a doorway here, it is the power of the scientific god!

"St. Teresa" and "Mogadishu" approached, the two ships coincided with each other, letting go of the battleships in front of them, and did not fire at them.

This is a hard time to give the opponent's ship a hard time.

Not only that, when the two ships converged, everyone did not scatter, but when the two ships were parallel, a salvo came when their respective bows were facing the bows, and the sterns were facing the bows!

"Fire, fire!" The officers of the two ships yelled hoarsely. They knew how powerful each other was, and quickly urged the gunners on the side to slam the bombs. Everyone received all the bombs from each other as they were ordered!

Suddenly, the "Mogadishu" was stunned by the shells, and the crew was stumbling on the deck, flying sawdust in front of them.

There is blood!

Someone has been shot, even if the armor of the South China Army is fully equipped, it will be unbearable if the iron bullet is eaten!

Adding to the chaos is that everyone also hit shots and bullets, and the bullets flew around. Someone around Cheng Yu fell down, but he easily poured the tea spilled in the teacup, and poured himself a cup and said: "Good tea !"

The two ships fought for a round, and continued to move forward without entanglement. More warships had to enter the battle line, use firepower, and fight in the opposite direction!

The battle lines of the two fleets continued to extend. By 5:30 in the afternoon, the two battle lines were completely parallel!

The South China Fleet has 139 battleships and 110 white-skinned battleships that are parallel in length. Then the South China Fleet is indented in the battle line. In many places, a three-on-two situation has formed. The artillery and bullets hit the white skin and can’t lift its head. , Casualties are on the rise.

However, the resistance of the sail battleship is high, and the morale of the white skin is also high, regardless of victory or defeat for a time, no battleship sinks, everyone is playing with great interest!

This is a general battle!

The side cannons of the battleships of both sides spewed out flames of death, rumbling and deafening, and the smoke on the sea piled up for a long time.

Today’s Tiangong is "beautiful", the wind is not very strong, so the muzzle of the South China Fleet that has the upper hand does not hit the water down, while the white-skinned muzzle does not hit the plane. It's a joy.

At the beginning of the war, everyone was terrified and feared that their lives would be unsafe, but when they reached the height, they simply ignored it!

The gunner and gunner opened their eyes wide, and fired at the enemy desperately. The sailors kept raising and lowering their sails to adapt to changes in wind direction following the command of the chief.

The officers command and supervise the battle, the gunner commands the battle, and the political officer

All the commanders and captains are walking on the deck, they can't hide!

Let your own people see, thereby encouraging morale.

Of course, this move puts himself under the eyes of the enemy. If you don't want to be hit by the enemy, it depends on God's blessing!

However, turning the enemy into a dead person is also an opportunity to see God, so everyone's shotguns and muskets are very happy.

Needless to say, the muskets of the Chinese people, Baipi also widely used rifled guns, and the proportion of scopes installed is not low~www.wuxiaspot.com~ If the sea is turbulent, the wind blows, the accuracy of the head drops, and the hit rate is not high. Otherwise, everyone will hide.

The snipers of both sides are the snipers that attack each other first, and first destroy the enemies that are capable of threatening themselves;

Then shoot the opposing officer;

If there is no high-value target, shoot the bullet!

If you can't hit someone to fight, then just shoot it into the cannon's eye!

The gunners in the gun bay often incur those unsuspecting disasters. They were originally blocked by thick solid wood walls. As long as they were not directly hit by the shells, they were safe.

The bullet hit the wooden wall and it was tickling, and it couldn't break the wall at all.

But when a bullet is shot into the hole of the gun, sometimes hits the body of the gun, and is shot off, it is unpredictable. The person who can escape is blessed by God.

Not to mention the dangers of the sailors next to the muzzle, the gunners resting on the other side may stand up and be hit by bullets, squatting on the deck and also eating bullets.

In particular, the white-skinned gunners were killed by bullets, and the number gradually increased. The number of people outside some battleships was even equal to or even higher than the number of people hit by the shells.

Because the gunners have no armor!

Even now, the white-skinned politicians are still reluctant to equip all sailors and gunners with protective gear. Their income is low and they cannot afford good protective gear. At most one piece of leather armor is good. Many people have it. Common protective gear.

On the other hand, Yan Changwu's fleet issued sufficiently strong metal protective gear to each of the officers and soldiers, and they were mandatory to wear them.

Some dudes with a steady style have even paid a lot of money and put three armors on themselves, making them thick and solid like a ball, and pointed bullets can't get in.

As for the musketeers on the deck, they were very dangerous. Both sides tried their best to shoot at each other. They couldn't escape the bullet and couldn't escape the bullet easily!

Everyone is clearing the venue!
