In the firing of artillery, the excellent characteristics of the catamaran were demonstrated. The wide hull, excellent maneuverability, seakeeping, and excellent guarantee of the stability, angles and other conditions required for gun firing.

The artillery fire of the Shenzhou Army seemed to be a continuous raindrop, raising white water columns around the Fusang warship. The paddlers on the Fuso warship rowed desperately to turn their ship around so that the enemy ship could enter the gunfire zone on the side of the ship. However, at this time, the maneuvering of a sailing ship is an extremely complex operation, and turning the hull of a ship in the middle of a naval battle is not an easy task!

Although the Fuso warship inherited the advantages of the shallower draft of the Chinese ship, it could be less or less affected by the current. However, the strong wind direction did not change as soon as they said it, and at this time, they had to not only seize the upper hand and reorganize the scattered formation, but also turn their ships so that their guns could be aimed at the enemy. This is really a very huge project.

From the beginning of this naval battle to the present, except for the two "Franc machine" guns in the middle of the shipbuilding and the two "Franc machine" guns at the bow of the ship, which fired a few shots, the rest of the time was completely in a state of one-sided beating. So much so that the generals who commanded the naval army had no choice but to beg the heavens that those "arsonist ships" could get close to the enemy ships and make the enemy warships cannon.

At this time, our eyes returned to the class just now. The sightman's gaze was fixed on a sailboat flying the flag of an enemy general, and its hull turned slowly at this moment.

Apparently the general of the ship, who had been passively beaten, had gone mad, and had just finished correcting the course, and he had ordered all kinds of firearms to be fired together.

The sighters remained silently watching the target, as if the fire had not been fired at them. In fact, there is a reason for his composure. The probability of the "Franc machine" hitting at a distance of more than 800 meters is almost zero, and as for those shotguns, they can not penetrate the armor of the "Gale-class" destroyers, which are more than twice as heavy as the "Fury Tide-class", and the porcelain plate has been replaced by a honeycomb-shaped iron plate.

With the sound of shells falling into the sea, spherical solid "sabotage shells" (see Article 6 of the "Relevant Materials" for remarks) rose up on the sea surface one after another. At the moment when these water columns rose, the aiming hand caught the perfect moment to launch, and the hand that had been raised suddenly put down. With his roar, the cannon commander pulled the firing rope violently.

After the whistle of the "boom" shell flying away from the muzzle, the sound of "anti-recoil gas" hitting the wall of the ship echoed in the cabin.

The sightman did not leave his post because of the firing of the shell, and his eyes were always fixed on his target.

The gunners opened the bolts, cleaned the chambers one by one, skillfully picked up the shells again, and filled the medicine packs one by one.

Their operation is fast and orderly, for the sake of fighting at sea, they have to practice at least 100 times a day, this is still a wartime rule, if it is in training, it will be more times and the situation will be more complicated.

Eight hundred meters away, a large cloud of black smoke rose from the target, followed by a faint explosion field, and the big finger of the aiming hand stood up.

The gunners cheered, it was a gesture to hit the target. His eyes never took off the sight and did not participate in the cheers, his gesture changed again, and the two gunners in charge of the shooting field were busy again.

A squad of ten gunners was responsible for completing all the tasks quickly, and as the shooting preparations were completed, the gun commander patted the aiming man's head again, and the next shot began.

The power of a 100 mm shell from a 1647 Thor-J cannon was evident, and the long, sharp shell went straight through the Fuso Navy to connect the midship building and deck. The long shells burrowed all the way into the cabins on the second deck below the central ship, where the entire Fuso warship was stored, filled with powder kegs and shells.

There was a loud "boom", and the gunpowder and shells were detonated by the shells and the shells were blasted twice. The powerful impact directly tore the shipbuilding above into a strange shape and sent it into the air, along with the corpses charred by gunpowder and the fragments of various weapons.

Compared to the people in the cabin, the more than 200 soldiers on the deck were slightly better, and they were thrown far away by the air waves, and they fell into the water dizzily. However, they were riddled with wounds cut by broken pieces of wood, and a thick water of blood was released in the sea.

Moreover, the armor on the body, which usually looks mighty, has all become deadly broken sacks at this time, which not only weighs heavily when soaked in water, but also binds people's limbs together, making people almost unable to scratch their hands and swim.

Sailors who were lucky enough to land not far from the wreckage of the warship paddled desperately, climbed onto the wreckage of the warship, which was still unextinguished, or clung to a barrel or a broken plank.

At this moment, the time is December 7, 1647 in the "Shenzhou calendar", in the face of the first battle of the "punishment war" of the Shenzhou army against Fusang, these Fusang people still do not understand that it is time for them to repay the debts of the past and the future.

As time passed, more and more ships were hit, and more than a dozen of the thirty ships followed behind the ships, being smashed into pieces, sent to the bottom of the sea, or spewing smoke to the cold sea breeze. The mass of the body was squatted with people huddled together to keep warm.

It's just that they don't seem to have been taught this lesson well, and one by one they actually start cheering. At this time, the artillery fire of the Shenzhou Army thinned out. The reason was that the "arsonists" who were speeding frantically came to the vicinity of the destroyer and concentrated on attacking the nearest ship.

Although the "Gale-class" destroyers of the Shenzhou Navy are faster than those "arsonists", these arsonist ships still cause them a little trouble.

More than 10 arson ships concentrated on attacking a detachment of the Shenzhou Army. First of all, they blocked the way of the Shenzhou Army fleet towards their own fleet, but this had no effect on the destroyers of the Shenzhou Army, because the warships of the Shenzhou Army always maintained the best firing distance of their guns at a distance of about 800 meters from the enemy ships.

The "arsonists" saw that the enemy fleet was always circling around their naval forces and carrying out long-range artillery bombardment, and had no intention of engaging in broadside battles at all. Only then did they realize that in the face of strange ships and strange tactics like the other party, their own methods were old-fashioned and didn't work.

The naval generals who led the team quickly gave up interception, but instead led their own "arson" fleet to intercept the direction of the Shenzhou Army's destroyers. The arsonist ships took a very clever route, and they cooperated with their own ships to force the destroyer fleet out of an arc. They themselves took a route with a small radius and finally stopped in front of the Shenzhou Army destroyer fleet.
