Chapter 453: The Great Fight at Sea (2)
"Bang Bang!"
Soon, Sui Yuxing heard a strange tearing sound coming from his fortune boat.
Sui Yuxing hurriedly turned his head to see that his fortune boat was indeed hit by a chain bullet. A section of the railing on the right side of the deck, near the bow, had been broken by chain bullets, and the deck was littered with flying wood chips.
Sui Yuxing could even clearly see the blood stains on the deck, and less than twenty steps away from him, he also saw a corpse with only the lower body, but the upper body was gone, Sui Yuxing estimated that the upper body of this corpse might have been swept directly into the sea by chain bullets.
The bullet was so powerful that there was a long series of gaps everywhere it passed.
Due to the damage caused by the chain bullets, the pirates near the mast and deck all looked in horror at the place where the chain bullets had been broken, and they were a little dazed and at a loss.
The power of the chain bullet is really extraordinary, it's good not to be hit, but if it is hit, it is definitely a human tragedy.
Looking at the deck strewn with corpses, Sui Yuxing suddenly trembled with anger, these enemies who didn't know where they came out of nowhere were so ignorant of the rules, and directly refused their surrender, they had to kill them all!
"Withdraw! Withdraw it! ”
Sui Yuxing saw that the other party refused to surrender, so he prepared to escape.
"Boss, it's too late!"
The subordinates on the side looked sad and said, "Boss! We can't outrun them! ”
Sui Yuxing looked at the enemy who was rapidly turning the bow of the ship in the distance, and his heart suddenly seemed to freeze, and his eyes were full of despair.
At this time, Sui Yuxing didn't know what to say, and then he realized what a stupid thing he had done, why did he have to run out and loot, if he stayed on Dashan Island, he would not encounter these enemies in front of him.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
Feng Xiang gave an order, and the flagships of the two detachments were bombarded again, and two were sunk in a blink of an eye, and although one Fu ship did not sink, it was constantly entering the water, and it was only a matter of time before it sank to the bottom of the sea.
At this time, there were only twenty ships left in Sui Yuxing's department that could still move, and they were already panicked, and they had no power to fight back in the face of the Dongping Island Navy!
On the sea, the naval gunners of Dongping Island were busy for a while, and rows of projectiles flew towards the opposite pirates, one of the projectiles hit a pirate on the deck, and after the fist-sized projectile flew, the sailor's upper body immediately disappeared, and the sailor's lower body still maintained its original posture for a few seconds before it collapsed on the deck, and soon a large pool of blood condensed around the mutilated corpse.
The surrounding Haikou suddenly dispersed as if they had seen an evil ghost, and even Sui Yuxing, who was not far away, stood aside in horror, for fear that he would be splashed with hot blood.
"No, it's grapeshot!"
After Sui Yuxing retched for a while, he just raised his head when he saw a large wave of cannons flying over, and immediately let out a scream.
This time, the cannons equipped by Feng Xiang's department were all developed by the R&D Department of the Military Department, and they were all based on the situation of the Ming army's equipment with artillery.
These so-called grapeshot bullets are actually several, dozens, or even hundreds of spherical iron or lead bullets packed into a shell and then fired together.
But the earliest grapeshot was not wrapped in a shell, and the gunners strung the lead bullets together and then fired them, and the shells looked like a large bunch of grapes, so they were called grapeshot shells, and the principle was actually the same as that of shotguns, but the name was different.
Compared with live ammunition and chain bullets, grapeslet bullets like Celestial Maiden scattered flowers are obviously easier to hit the target.
Therefore, Feng Xiang looked at the fleet of Sui Yuxing's subordinates in the distance, and decisively ordered to use grapeshot bombs.
This kind of weapon, figuratively speaking, is a string of hailstones, overwhelmingly smashed down, there is no way to dodge at such a close distance, the only thing the opponent can do is to ask for more blessings, pray for God to bless himself from the overwhelming rain of bullets.
"Bobo!"
The rain of bullets fell, and several ships under Sui Yuxing were all shot, and the deck of Sui Yuxing's flagship made a dense sound, sounding like a hail falling for a while.
For a while, there were a lot of black iron iron balls embedded in the wooden planks on the deck of the Haikou flagship, and some iron marbles were dripping and rolling on the deck, these iron balls were generally only the size of a thumb, and even smaller ones were only as big as a little thumb.
Don't look at them inconspicuous, they are much less powerful than live ammunition, and basically they can't do any damage to the oak deck and the sturdy hull, but its damage to personnel is huge, as long as it is hit in the body, it is absolutely fatal, it is absolutely fatal to rub and die, no matter how many layers of armor you wear, the result is the same.
What's more, as soon as this thing comes out, it is a large string, and it is dozens or even hundreds of iron pellets when it goes down, and the power is really terrifying after falling like a heavenly maiden scattering flowers.
"Ahh
On the Haikou flagship, the screams of many thieves continued to sound, and Sui Yuxing listened to the screams around him, and his heart trembled.
Obviously, many of the pirates were hit by grape bullets, and they were screaming before they died, screaming in a terrible and desperate voice. It was like a screaming duck that had suddenly had its throat cut out. The projectiles, which were only the size of their fingers, were so powerful that the screams of many sailors came to an abrupt end.
It has been said that the only place where human beings are equal is at the time of death, and this statement now seems to have some truth. In front of the projectiles flying in the sky, the leader of the pirates standing on the deck was not spared.
Just when the Dongping Island Navy opened fire again, Sui Yuxing happened to hide behind a thick mast, and he was lucky to avoid this wave of bullets, but a capable subordinate next to him was not so lucky.
After the rain of bullets, when Sui Yuxing trembled and poked his head out to observe the battle situation, he saw a scene that frightened him.
There were two corpses lying less than ten steps away from him, these two corpses could no longer see their faces, but Sui Yuxing could barely recognize their respective identities from the clothes of the corpses, one of which was wearing a short body was his second leader, and the other was wearing a robe and a long sword hanging next to the corpse was his guard!
At this time, the second master lost half of his head, his body twisted together in a strange posture, and the lower half of his body was not only knocked off a leg, but his whole body was beaten by several projectiles like a broken sack, which can only be described as a puddle of rotten meat.
Sui Yuxing turned his head to look around again, and found that on the deck around him, the corpses of more than twenty pirates were already lying down. The appearance of each of the pirates is terrible.
If the grape bomb doesn't hit, it's enough, once it hits, it will definitely be a group of dead and wounded, and Sui Yuxing is going crazy when he sees this.
The surrounding cannon was still roaring, shaking Sui Yuxing's ears a little faintly, and Sui Yuxing, who was stunned by this bloody scene, was stunned, and the whole person froze in place and didn't know what to do, knowing that there was a rapid cry in his ears.
Sui Yuxing, who had been arrogant in the sea off the coast of Andongwei for a long time, had been beaten by Feng Xiang's navy at this time, and he was completely irrational.
In the distance, Feng Xiangwang saw that Sui Yuxing's troops had completely collapsed, so he asked his subordinates to shout and ask these pirates to surrender.
Sui Yuxing was already frightened at this time, where did he still have the courage to resist, and immediately let the remaining seventeen or eight sea ships surrender.
Half an hour later, Sui Yuxing's Haikou were all under control, and Feng Xiang also led a team of his men to board the flagship of the Haikou.
After seeing Sui Yuxing, Feng Xiang sneered and said, "Don't come to harm, Master Sui!" ”
At this time, Sui Yuxing's eyes widened and he looked at Feng Xiang in surprise: "It's you!" How is this possible! ”
"Humph!"
Feng Xiang said coldly: "Does the head of Sui Da regret it very much that he didn't kill me in the first place?" ”
Sui Yuxing's face was pale and he didn't speak, he lowered his head and didn't know what to think.
Feng Xiang had the intention of killing Sui Yuxing, but he couldn't, and he had to be escorted to Liu Juntao for conviction, so he led the Dongping Island Navy and brought it back to Dongping Island along with Sui Yuxing's prisoners.
After returning to Dongping Island, Feng Xiang first imprisoned more than 600 people under Sui Yuxing's office, and let the 106 birdmen who stayed on Dongping Island guard them, and then led the Dongping Island Navy to Cheniushan Island and Dashan Island.
