The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

? At sunset, the pirate ship was caught up!

If it were to go lightly, the cruiser would only take more time. Now that it can catch up in such a fast time, in addition to the effects of sails, personnel, wind, ocean currents, etc., navigator Tang Mingtong pointed out the two alternate candidates. To them: "Look at the wall of that boat!"

The two candidates used binoculars to look more closely. When they saw the ups and downs of the pirate ship, numerous sea creatures attached to the ship's wall appeared, and they immediately understood.

Oysters, barnacles, sea rainbows and seaweed vegetables in the ocean are adsorbed on the ship. The longer they accumulate, the more they accumulate. This pirate ship has been soaked in the sea for at least a few months. As a result, many marine organisms are adsorbed on the ship’s hull. It is not easy to deal with them. For example, the adhesion of barnacles is very strong, and hard metal tools must be used to pry them off. They can't be broken with bare hands. The boat is soaked in the sea, and the marine life on the bottom of the boat is even more difficult to deal with.

"The best solution is to dock the boats and roast them on a wooden frame with fire, clean them up, or drag them ashore to deal with them. The pirates don't have such good conditions!" Tang Mingtong gloated with misfortune.

"Yeah! The sir is right!" Yan Kun remembered that the dry dock had been repaired in Aceh Naval Port on the Arabian Peninsula, and it was used very frequently.

Don’t underestimate the dry dock. In the backward years, Britain built dry docks in 1495, while France has no dry docks until now. As for the Chinese in the southeast, they enthusiastically built dry docks everywhere and used it to make ships. Maintenance, the final mandatory requirements for warships and civilian ships in use must have maintenance records before they can be launched!

So the pirate ship of the Red Hairpin suffered a loss in this regard, and with heavy load, it would be strange not to catch up with the warship!

After catching up, naturally it was not a tail-end chase but the two ships marched in parallel. The pirates on the pirate ship leaned behind the bulwark with their eyes shining like wolves.

The crew on both sides are waiting for this moment, and the Chinese are also waiting for it.

The Chinese officers and soldiers also slumped down, carefully watching their starboard enemy through the muzzle on the bulwark, and no one would show their heads grinningly.

Although the accuracy of the musket is poor, as long as it is aimed at the opponent, it is equally difficult to escape the threat.

In naval battles, the higher you are, the faster you hang up!

Therefore, the officers were the most unlucky. The naval officers of that period still had to straighten their bodies and walk around, and the possibility of being shot increased greatly.

Compared with the officers of the Hong Maofan, the officers of the Southeast Army do not have to dress like peacocks. They wear the same training uniforms as the soldiers, except for the epaulettes.

Yan Kun walked with Captain Shi Lang. The good news is that the ship is higher than the pirate ship, and the other side attacked, making it difficult to hit them on the open deck.

The threats are all the time, and the pirates are not vegetarian. They can use the sniper on the mast to attack the officer. This is not polite, but the battle position on the mast is easily affected by the sails on both sides (the sail pieces hinder The sight of the sniper), and at the same time they are the focus of attention of the musketeers on the open decks of both sides.

Neither ship fired, and the sniper on the mast hid himself well.

When the two ships were one hundred and fifty meters apart and paralleled almost in parallel, with the beating of commanders from both sides, the artillery of both sides blasted at the same time. Yan Kun couldn't help but speed up his heartbeat as he listened to the sound of the cannons.

He settled down, followed the captain's instructions, looked at his watch, and tried his best to distinguish the speed of the opponent's shelling, while his accomplice Jian Wenyue went down to the gun deck to help.

However, beside the captain and Yan Kun, there were several Marines with their own divisions of work, ready to block gunshots for them two at any time.

Yan Kun reported: "Their shelling rate is every two minutes and eleven seconds!"

This speed is really inferior, the Chinese shelling speed is one-half of theirs!

The training of artillery art is to burn silver, and the gunpowder is burned to ashes in the thick smoke. Now the apprentices have caught up with the master, Hong Maofan can use their artillery art to teach other ethnic groups, and the Chinese have trained artillery art with high military expenses. , Let Hong Maofan suffer.

As soon as they fought, the pirates fully realized that the firepower of the other party was 200 pounds more powerful than theirs. The pirate ship was blown by fierce shells and the bulwark burst, and the sawdust bombs flew several people high and filled a ball. The Chinese were very happy to see it. , The pirates are painstakingly, and what is worse is that they are twice as fast!

Shi Lang did not order continuous firing, or even interfered in the artillery too much, leaving the gun crew to play freely.

As a result, the gunners were full of enthusiasm, tilting the shells toward each other as much as they wanted, and firing them as long as they didn't hit the air.

The two gunners went back and forth, and the artillery fired. When sitting back, the musketeers fired at each other with their muskets. The sound of the guns interspersed with the sound of gunshots, and people screamed from time to time.

This was a one-sided attack. The Chinese 18-pounder artillery showed great power. The shells smashed the bulwark of the pirate ship like an iron hoe, and made big holes in the wall, killing and injuring the people behind.

The 12-pounder gun mounted on the open deck fired shotguns, and the billiards hit the open deck of the pirate ship like hail, making the pirates unable to raise their heads.

The pirates are still fighting back, but their speed has slowed down due to the casualties.

Yan Kun counted the speed and found that the opponent's shelling speed had become two and a half minutes, followed by three minutes.

The firepower output speed of the other side has always been stable for a little more than one point. If the opponent is beaten, we are determined to win.

Yan Kun saw Shi Lang straighten his body, open the palms of his leather gloves, and block them in front of him to prevent the sawdust from splashing on his face. His posture was calm.

He looked in his eyes and nodded secretly, realizing what the demeanor of an officer was!

This is to pretend to be B, but you have to pretend to be B. If you are an officer, you will be as timid as a mouse, with a look of fear. If you are afraid, your subordinates will be even more afraid!

Only if you pretend to be B and your subordinates see your calm look, they will not be afraid.

The guys with solid styles on the ship made Yan Kun an eye-opener. In addition to the helmets and bulletproof vests required by the military, they also wore face shields, neck protectors, crotch protectors, and even used leather armor for their calves. It is very exaggerated to wrap it up.

In the southeast, the martial arts are hot and the equipment industry is developed. Those extra things are purchased by themselves, not a few.

No one is so mournful to go to war with his upper body naked. The army has strict regulations, and those who don't wear the most basic protective gear are all subject to severe prosecution.

Your life is not yours, but the navy!

Their artillery bombardment is also lethal on our ship, but the armor of the Chinese has effectively resisted the firepower of the opponent. Since the war began, many people have been injured, but no one has been killed.

Things were as Shi Lang had imagined. The pirate ship turned its rudder fiercely, and the bow thrust in at a 45-degree angle!

However, the helmsman of battleship 181 was not bad, and he quickly escaped from the rudder disc~www.wuxiaspot.com~, and then turned left and turned the bow backward. At this time, the port guns were facing the pirate ship. Shoot!

The violent attack of shells frustrated the pirate ship, and its speed slowed down. At this time, the rudder position of battleship 181 was restored and the two ships were parallel again.

Next, the pirate ship tried to approach again and again, while the Chinese warship kept evading like a frightened bird. At the same time, it attacked the opponent from fierce bullets, hitting the opponent's bulwark hole and collapsing, and the sail was battered by shotguns. Hole, tattered!

We had the upper hand in the artillery battle, but the pirates finally found the opportunity. When a gust of wind blew, the pirate ship suddenly approached the battleship No. 181. The two sides were close at hand. At the same time, they flew one by one on the decks on both sides with smoke. The gunpowder cans were smashed towards each other!

Boom! Iron nails and steel **** burst above everyone's heads!
