Druidel commanded the Dutch fleet to sail to the upper wind side of the South China Fleet, keeping the two fleets sailing on the same route. He originally planned to use the fleet deterrence to probe the bottom line of the Chinese, but did not make the fleet go to war. Tromp committed two more crimes. He thinks that the late fight is not as good as the early fight, anyway, sooner or later, it is better to fight now, what are you waiting for!

Therefore, he ignored the command of the coach and fired at the forward fleet of the South China Fleet (commanded by Siresma) at close range, followed by Cornelis Iverson’s rear army also shelling at the rear guard fleet commanded by Xiao Changrong. In desperation, Druidel could only fire, and the battle started in full.

"The situation is not right!" During the battle, Druidel's binoculars looked more at his fleet, paying attention to the sound of the South China Fleet's guns.

The artillery of the South China Fleet battleships used chain bullets to blast the masts and sails of the Dutch battleships.

There are generally three types of naval artillery shells. One is a solid shell, which is very useful for attacking the hull; the second is a shotgun, which shoots a large number of projectiles to attack the crew on the ship. If the crew on the target ship does not pay attention to concealment, the shotgun can be harvested. Sweep the deck like crops; the third type is chain bullets. Two small cannonballs smaller than the bore diameter are connected in series with a chain. After launching, one cannonball will drag another cannonball and flew out by centrifugal movement. A big hole is pulled in the sail, or the rigging is torn, and the mast can even be torn off when lucky. The effect of chain bullets is mainly used to limit the action of the enemy ship.

Generally, the South China Imperial Navy, the British Navy, and the Dutch Navy have always been fighting for the upper hand, attacking enemy ships with solid bullets, and enjoying the joy of fist and fist. However, the navies of countries like France and Spain like to protect ships. They take advantage of the wind to fight. Under the action of the waves, the muzzle is raised. At this time, chain bullets are fired, knocking down the mast and sails of the enemy ship, and the enemy ship loses its mobility. The ship can withdraw from the battle at any time.

In addition, there are bar bombs, just like barbells, mainly attacking rigging.

Now the South China Fleet is taking risks. They have the upper hand to fight, mainly by attacking the masts and sails of the Dutch battleships and preventing the Dutch from escaping!

Knowing the intentions of the Chinese, Druidel raised the pirate skull flag on the flagship "Seven Provinces", urging the ships to fight with all their strength and defeat the infidels as soon as possible.

During the fierce battle, he could not easily change the battle line, hoping that the army would show its might and solve the infidels.

The battle lines of both sides stretched forward, and they continued to shell each other.

Well, the Dutch got red eyes and fired desperately, yelling, "For Holland, for God, kill heretics!"

And the gunners on the South China battleship also did their best. The gunners wore only a bulletproof vest and a helmet on their heads. The officers were dressed neatly and fired with great enthusiasm.

The battle line was nailed, and everyone banged fiercely. The sound of guns on the sea rumbled, smoke enveloped the battleship, countless muzzles were spraying flames, and it was like a group of monsters fighting.

After the battle lasted for two hours, Druidel took out a Chinese-made stopwatch and looked at it, and his brows wrinkled into the word "Chuan".

He was comparing the gun speeds of the two sides. The Dutch gunners paled in comparison. Although they worked very hard, shouted loudly, and fought hard, they were mostly amateurs and rushed into battle. The artillery team was not skilled enough, and the speed was really not as good as the South China Army. Professional gunner.

Nanhua gunners average one shot per minute!

The speed of the Dutch gunners was one shot in one and a half minutes, and then one shot in two minutes.

In the early days, Dutch gunners averaged one shot per minute, which was equal to the South China Army.

Originally there were not as many guns as the South China Army's guns, and it was slow to fight, and the artillery was not as powerful as the guns on the South China Battleship.

The lighting of the science and technology tree is very important. In 1650, the naval guns of the naval powers were all forged in bronze. Bronze was lighter and more durable than cast iron and was the best material for casting guns.

However, when the size of the battle fleet expanded, the use of bronze became too expensive, especially in the shipbuilding frenzy set off by the South China Imperial Navy. If all bronze guns were used, then the South China Empire would not be able to support it.

This world is more iron and less copper. Under the guidance of Emperor Yan Changwu, the military industry of the South China Empire resolutely adopted cast iron cannons, and finally transitioned to tough and solid cast steel cannons.

At sea, throughout the Sailing Age, the cast steel guns of the South China Empire were stronger than all its opponents. The key reason was that the South China Army’s artillery units could achieve an absolute superior rate of fire, while the copper cast guns and iron cast guns of other countries were not good.

Due to the lack of firepower, the Dutch were unable to destroy the battleships of the South China Fleet. Although the battleships were scarred, riddled with holes, and the personnel were bleeding to the ground, but one ship sank and was still returning to the artillery fire at the beginning of the war. No reduction.

In contrast, the chain bullets and bar bullets of the South China Fleet showed great power, but the chain bullets were screaming in the air and the barbells roared out. They all encountered the sails, canvas, and sails. Swept away, and sometimes interrupted the strongest mast.

Some Dutch battleships were miserable enough. They fought and found themselves shaved by chain bullets and bar bullets, leaving only a few masts and some canvas remnants messy in the wind.

The sail systems of many Dutch battleships have been damaged, generally reaching 30 to 40% of the system damage, and the mobility has been severely weakened!

Eindhoven van Bommel, the captain of the battleship "Seven Provinces", said to Druitl in a panic: "The situation is not good. The pagan chain bullets and bar bullets are destroying our sails. They want us to Can't go! Your lord, we should retreat!"

Druidel grinned and sighed: "You know, if we retreat now, the entire fleet will be ruined!"

The opponent is quite sophisticated and will never let the Dutch go. Once the Dutch retreat, they will definitely choose the weakest to fight and volley the battleships that can’t escape. They can eat at least one-third to one-half of the Dutch fleet. Strength, by then, what ability will the remaining fleet have to fight the Chinese?

"But if we continue to fight..." Eindhoven Van Bommel didn't dare to go on, and finally sighed: "Only God bless!"

The victory of an army depends on God's blessing, then God can only hehe!

"Marshal, the enemy's sails are almost the same, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com orders the fleet to turn up the wind to fight!" Brigadier General Huang Bo, the captain of the Nanhua Fleet's flagship "Fuqiang" first-class battleship, suggested.

"Wait!" Mr. David looked at the enemy ship through a binoculars and shook his head.

In fact, the officers and soldiers of the South China Army fought very badly. Most of their firepower was fighting planes instead of doing it. It would be uncomfortable for you to endure the punches and kicks of the enemy, destroying their beloved battleship, and hitting them. There were casualties on his armor.

Even if the South China Army has very good personal protection, strong medical and nursing capabilities, and not many sacrificed officers and soldiers, it is unhappy!

The soldiers obeyed the marshal's order, cursed in their hearts, and endured silently, but resolutely obeyed the order, but the anger in their eyes was even worse.

Eventually they waited for the flag to hunt and move, and the wind on the sea automatically turned to southwest wind, and our army was at the upwind.

"God helps me, don't need to adjust the rudder position, now we are fighting on the upper hand!" Mr. David shouted, "Fight me!"

Three red flares flew into the sky, and within a short time, the originally slack South China Army artillery once again climbed to a high rate of fire. One after another, with the anger of the soldiers, they slammed into the bulwark of the enemy ship. !
