388 Perverted Molière
"Warriors of France, right in front of you is the Ryukyus, Naha, the destination of our expedition...... If these barbarians of East Asia dare to challenge the honor of France in Europe and the dignity of the emperor, then his final result is to go to hell......"
"All the ships were in formation, the bow guns were firing freely, and all the nasty debris on the sea, except for the merchant ships flying the European flag, had to be cleared of all this nasty debris to open up a safe firing position for us...... Glory... Fire ......"
On the bridge of the French battleship Glory, Rear Admiral Bruce was roaring orders to his soldiers, and beside him, the man who was silently watching the huge battleship was Napoleon III's envoy to the East, the knight Molière.
At the end of the 15th century, when shipbuilding and metal smelting technology gradually matured, the ultimate warship to dominate the seas, the sail battleship, was born.
This is the pinnacle of the wooden sail warship, this is the ultimate marine supremacy weapon of mankind before the appearance of ironclad warships, and it has dominated the seas for three hundred years since its birth.
Molière's eyes did not have the mountains and rivers of the port of Naha, but only the huge and powerful warship beneath him, which represented the pinnacle of wooden shipbuilding, exuding an infinite murderous aura from every corner.
The sides of the battleship are densely packed with gun doors, and from a distance they look as terrifying as the eyes of a kraken, and if you have a phobia of denseness, then such a scene will definitely become the protagonist of your nightmare.
Molière knew that behind every closed cannon door was a powerful cannon, and that the loader and gunner were on standby in the cabin, and that the 140 guns of the Glory could turn the city in front of him into a sea of fire in an instant.
Not only that, but in the sailors' cabin of the battleship, one after another marines were ready for battle, and under the encouragement of the officers, there was no expression of fear on everyone's faces, and there was only the excitement of battle.
"This is my warship, this is my glory, this is also the glory of His Majesty the Emperor, it is the ......glory of France," Molière bowed his head and sneered, "Six years ago, our army was able to break through the capital of the Qing Kingdom, and now six years later, can't we break through a small Ryukyu? I think three thousand glorious marines are enough for us to dominate here......"
Sailing from the Indian Ocean to this point, Molière talked to himself a lot, and it was this feeling of divine chatter that terrified the entire expeditionary fleet.
Yes, the soldiers are never afraid of the strong commander, even if the commander likes to physically punish the soldiers, everyone can adapt to it. What the soldiers are most afraid of is this kind of mysterious and mysterious commander who is close to a perverted commander.
Molière traveled all the way, not to mention ordinary soldiers, and even Major General Bruce was apprehensive when he saw him. Now that the war was imminent, Molière didn't expect it to come again, which made Bruce's order come down a lot.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency...... Do you have anything to add?" the Major General said with a cautious smile.
Molière looked up at the fleeing fishing boats and cargo ships on the sea, and a sneer flowed from the corner of his mouth: "It's not enough for the bow guns to fire freely, you have to keep in mind that this is a revenge mission, and we only have one purpose, which is to use the most brutal killing to deter all the enemies in the world..."
"On my orders, all ships except those flying the British and French flags will be bombed indiscriminately...... Not only that, but we also have to speed up and speed up to crush the past with our warships, so that this group of East Asian barbarians will live in the shadow of fear for the rest of their lives......"
Molière's voice became sharper and sharper, and his expression became more and more hideous, and the rear admiral beside him was so frightened that he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly gave a loud order: "Except for the British and French ships, bomb indiscriminately...... Rush up and crush them..."
The Glory was the first to open fire, and the three bow guns of the ship roared, and the smoke suddenly covered most of the deck, and the merchant ships that were rapidly evading on the sea in the distance shouted in surprise, and the white waves set off by the cannonballs after entering the water were seven or eight meters high.
"Keep firing and sail forward...... If they can't be blown up, they will sink them......" Major General Bruce glanced at the envoy out of the corner of his eye, and scolded in his heart, I will never serve you again after this battle, if I give you another day of work, my wife in Cannes will steal the man......
Phew...... This poisonous oath is too ruthless, I'd better change it, if I give you this pervert another day, I will bless me with losing all my pension for the rest of my life.
The sailors on the battleship, of course, did not know what was in the mind of the general, they only knew how to carry out orders. The gunners continued to measure the angles and counts, and the sailmen pulled the cables and opened the snow-white sails, and the behemoth, with a displacement of more than 1,400 tons, crushed it mercilessly with an indomitable momentum like the top of Mount Tai.
The general's order was to spare the British and French cargo ships, and this order was actually just the eyes of the predecessors who scattered the soil and squinted the eyes of the descendants, and at this time the European merchants had already known the plans of the French expeditionary force, and they had already evacuated one after another a week ago.
Now, except for a few Western merchant ships that were injured and had to stop, the rest are small merchant ships from East Asian countries. In the rumbling sound of cannons, the Japanese ships were hit, and the skyrocketing flames were mixed with tumbling corpses.
There is also the most common bony sailing ship on the southeast coast of China, which is as small as a child's toy in front of the huge battleship, and in an exclamation, the tall hull directly hits it, and the boat disintegrates in an instant.
The cries and shouts on the sea were one after another, while the French battleships resounded with excited cheers.
"Damn foreign devils...... You wait, wait for the prime minister's army to destroy you...... Help..."
"Six sons...... Come on...... Watch out for the swirl on your left...... Mazu bless..."
The sea was full of shouts and curses from those who had fallen into the water, but it was a pity that the screams of the weak did not arouse the slightest sympathy from the strong, and the sailors on the deck even raised their rifles and shot into the water as if they were hunting wild animals.
"Hurry, hurry...... Left Left Left ...... That's a Qing man, look at his braids, it's the same as a woman......"
"Whereever, there... There is no hair on the top of his head, and he is Japanese...... Hahaha, shoot... Oh you're stupid, your marksmanship is terrible......"
The sailors on deck were as excited as Christmas, the expedition was so hard that the perverted Molière knights didn't let them enter the harbor to rest at all along the way, and even the supplies were sent by merchant ships on the high seas.
Countless days and nights, the sailors looked at the bustling harbor in the distance, thinking about the taverns, the prostitutes, and the gambling games on the docks, and felt as uncomfortable as raising a hundred ants.
They also secretly complained to the major general, but everyone was silent when they saw Molière's dead face, the most difficult thing to communicate in life is perverted, and unfortunately they met a perverted envoy.
Today, when the game of hunting ordinary people on the sea began, the feelings that had been suppressed all the way finally found an outlet.
"Look where... It was a woman who fell overboard...... Oh, look, her clothes are soaked...... George, George, I'll bet you ten gold francs, and I'll bet you won't hit this woman......"
"Shut up fat man, I'll bet you, my George's marksmanship is a must......" The soldier who bet in the chaotic crowd raised his hand and shot it.
With a snap, the bullet pierced the woman's shoulder, and the red blood rippled from the sea, and the woman who was struggling to swim could no longer wave her arms.
"Mom...... Mother ......" In the distance, a teenager swam back like crazy, trying to save his mother, shouting loudly in the Ryukyu native language.
The woman felt that her strength had begun to spread and disappear in the sea as the blood began to spread, and she stepped on the water weakly to keep her body unsinkable, while her other hand waved desperately at the child.
"Go back...... Don't come and die...... Go back...... Bastard, go back......"
But no matter how a woman scolds her child, the mother and son are always stronger than water, and the child is still swimming to the mother "Mom...... Hold on, I'll take you home......"
On the deck of the Glory, the group of gamblers did not understand the Ryukyu native language, and they were now in a state of euphoria before the battle, and they did not want to listen to the sound of ants.
"Lose, fatty, you lose, ten gold francs hurry up and pay ......"
"Damn, I didn't expect you to really win the bet, so I owe it first...... Hahaha..."
In the midst of the sailors' laughter, the rifle was raised again, this time aimed at the child who was paddling hard. The injured mother saw the danger at a glance, she screamed at her child, and she used her last strength to drive the child away.
"Let's go back...... You idiot, are you going to kill me? Go back, go back to the island, you still have a chance to live......"
The woman knew the child's stubbornness, she gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, and suddenly shook her head and went directly into the seawater, she wanted to drown herself.
"Mom... The mother ...... "The child cried desperately, the rifle above his head was snapping, and the bullets grazed his body and shot into the sea.
At that moment, a man suddenly emerged from the water beside the child, an elderly Chinese fisherman, who grabbed the child by the neck and swam him into the distance.
"Stop shouting...... Don't live up to the opportunity your mother bought with her life, if you die, you will be unfilial...... If you have the strength, let's go to the island, and let's take revenge on these beasts......"
The boy finally stopped crying, and he glared at the Glory with the deepest hatred, and the old and the young, plunged headlong into the sea and dived away into the distance.
The encounter between mother and son is only the tip of the tragic scene on the sea, with the glorious battleship as the core, and the seven frigates Lyra, Roma, Gaul, Holy, Pious, Poseidon, and Rafale. There were also two light cruisers, the Broken Wave and the Quickwalker.
Ten warships formed a long formation of wild goose wings on the sea, first bombarded with the bow guns, and then crushed with tall ships, and the more than ten nautical miles south of the port of Naha suddenly became a hell on earth, and the sea was in shambles.
In the end, even the rear admiral couldn't stand it anymore, and he whispered beside Molière's envoy, "My lord, do you see if you want to hurry up, leave these ants alone......"
"No, no, no...... My dear general, war is a hell of killing, and our lads need to get into the groove in advance, they need to see the blood first, only then can they teach the Chinese...... in the best condition"
"That's the adaptation period, and I've got to give the lads an adaptation period...... Hehehe... Open up and kill, I just want you to give me victory... Defeat Naha, and I reward you with three days of freedom......"
One sentence was immediately exchanged for all the soldiers chanting, what is three days of freedom, that is, you can vent uncontrollably for three days and three nights, and three days is enough time for Naha to become a hell on earth.
