0621 Blood Banner! It's the Blood Flag!
At this time, the two fleets were only more than a hundred paces apart, and in terms of the speed of the sea ships, it could be said that they were coming in an instant! Whether the Third Squadron can hold the enemy, and whether Liu Xiang and they can escape is just a moment below!
Wu Yizhou stood in the shipbuilding, sweating all over his nervous head! But at this moment, he was no longer needed to command. Because the transmission of information is not so fast, at this time can only watch the temporary play of the captains.
Just when the atmosphere in the shipbuilding seemed to freeze, suddenly a staff officer screamed: "Look! Blood Flag! It's the Blood Flag! ”
Everyone followed his finger and looked, only to see a blood-red pennant just raised on the mast of the Third Fleet!
The blood-red pennant was born out of the British Navy's flag slogan. In the flag of the British Navy, the St. George flag is a blood-red pennant. To raise it is to tell your opponents and comrades that you will fight to the death and will not back down! Liu Pei also used him when teaching naval drills, but Liu Pei changed its name to Blood Banner.
The blood flag is raised, which shows the meaning of fighting to the death!
Before everyone could react, the flagship of the Third Squadron had already twisted its body and met the pirates! The sails of the Third Squadron were not all down, they just pushed the sails to a place where the wind was not blowing, slowing them down. Now push the sails in the right place, and the ship will rush towards the pirates as if it were alive!
Everyone can see that the flagship of the Third Fleet is ready to use ramming tactics to entangle their ships with the enemy's forwards and completely block their path!
As the blood flag was raised, the sailors of the Third Squadron chanted "Hooray!" They followed the example of the flagship and raised the blood flag, urging the battleships to rush towards the enemy!
The battle line fell apart, but there were more than 20 more battleships on the sea that writhed wildly, bravely rushing towards the enemy's front!
Wu Yizhou slammed his fist on the chart, and let out an angry roar from his chest: "The Third Squadron is good!" ”
On the sea, the flagship of the Third Squadron crushed the waves and rushed towards the one closest to him
pirate ships! The pirates on that ship were shocked! They didn't want to die here, so they twisted the ship desperately and turned to the left to avoid it. As a result, although he avoided the impact of the flagship of the Third Fleet, the hull of the ship was across the sea, and one of the ships in his team hit the middle of the hull, and the two ships were connected together and could not move!
The flagship of the Third Squadron didn't care when it missed the first pirate ship, and continued to arc towards the second row of pirates! This time, the enemy ship he chose couldn't dodge, and the two ships collided head-on! With the sound of a huge collision, the bows of the two ships shattered, and they were entangled with each other and could no longer be separated!
The collision of the flagships of the Third Fleet was like the clarion call for the beginning of the battle, and the sound of ships colliding on the sea was endless! Created seven or eight floating islands in the sea composed of collision ships! The small two ships were entangled, and the more seven or eight ships were entangled, completely blocking the retreat of Liu Xiang's fleet!
If they want to escape, they can only sail to both sides, but in terms of time, I am afraid that only the ships on both sides of the fleet on both sides can still escape. Because Wu Yizhou's main fleet is getting closer and closer. Their forwards had already begun to bombard the ships behind Liu Xiang's fleet with their bow guns.
The men of the 3rd Squadron acted almost in unison from top to bottom. By the time they got up from the fall caused by the collision, the Marines were the first to fire a row of guns at the opposing ships, and then the sailors rushed onto the enemy ships with swords and axes and shouting the slogan "All the Victory". They were followed by the Marines who ran out of bullets. Some of them hung bayonets directly on the firearms, while others discarded the firearms and grabbed short weapons to kill. For a while, the sound of cannons on the sea gradually became sparse, but the sound of fighting was higher and higher!
Whether you fight at sea or on land, the most brutal is hand-to-hand combat! There is no mercy here, only madness! When you face your opponent, either be cut to the ground by him or cut him down, and then go to find the next opponent. Until you fall down on your own!
And because of the narrow size of the ship, this increased the bloodiness of hand-to-hand combat. On deck, sailors on both sides were slashing at each other; Upstairs, bows and arrows
The Bird Gun is fighting the Fire Gun! Both sides didn't even have room to dodge, they both rushed forward with their chests held out and faced blood and death!
Hao Yun was on the flagship of the Third Squadron. Due to the insufficient number of marines this time and the urgency of the war, they had to draw brave men from the Taiwan occupation forces to fight on ships. So Hao Yun was selected because of his good spear skills.
With him came his sworn brother - Hao Ping'an! When Hao Ping'an knew that Hao Yun was going to leave Taiwan to fight, he held Hao Yun's hand and didn't let go, shouting that he must go to war with Hao Yun! Hao Yun naturally didn't do it, but Taibacha found Chief Hu and said, "When the eaglet grows up, she always has to fly by herself!" What's more, they are righteous brothers, and they can't stand by while the elder brother is fighting! Just let him go with him! It is his creation to live, and it is his life to die! ”
In this way, Chief Hu, considering the relationship with the Taiwanese natives, specially applied for Hao Ping'an to accompany the army. In the end, Hao Ping'an officially joined the Taiwan Expeditionary Force, and boarded the flagship of the Third Fleet with Hao Yun as an ordinary soldier and became a temporary marine. Hao Yun's military rank is relatively high, so he became the captain of the flagship marines.
In the previous battles, the Marines were in the cabin waiting for orders. Only when there are too many attrition on the deck, the marines will be drawn to the deck, so Hao Yun and Hao Ping'an have been sitting in the cabin and doing nothing, only listening to the fighting sound of their comrades on the deck and the rumbling cannons!
Just when they were waiting in the cabin, a human head suddenly reached out of the hatch and shouted at them: "Everyone in the cabin is on deck, ready to fight!" ”
Hao Yun was overjoyed when he heard this, but before he could get up, Hao Ping'an had already jumped up first, and shouted at the sky: "Suffocate grandpa!" ”
Hao Ping'an has been following Hao Yun for a long time, and he has spoken Chinese quite fluently. But unfortunately, the side effect is that Hao Ping'an's ability to swear is stronger! After all, they live in the barracks, what good can Hao Ping'an and a group of rough men learn? Although Hao Yun stopped it in many ways, it was useless! Hao Ping'an is still full of swearing!
