Chapter 438: The Dragon King Comes Out of the Water

Liao Yongan definitely has real skills, when the tail ship and the warship that was diagonally inserted by the Japanese invaders, the distance between the two sides was less than 100 steps, and the Japanese ships in front were still shooting crossbow arrows towards the Ming army.

The Ming army on the stern of the ship hurriedly shrank down and hid behind the women's wall, but one of them was not clever enough, his movements were a little slower, and his chest was shot through at once, and he immediately fell to the ground and blood foam overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and he lost his life in a blink of an eye.

Chang Mao picked up the helmet that had been shot off by the crossbow arrow, put it on his head again, he moved behind the gun in the stern of the ship, adjusted the muzzle slightly, and took out the fire fold and blew the medicine twist that poked at the tail tube.

The stern guns had been loaded with ammunition before they set off, and they had never had a chance to fire, but at this moment, with a loud boom, a wave of scattered bullets was thrown out, and the target was not the shooter in the bow of the enemy ship, but the huge sail, and the tough canvas was immediately shot with a thousand holes, like the clothes of Hanako.

This cannon was just fired, Chang Mao smiled and lit another gun, this time it was a solid iron bullet, the shell rubbed the air and made a sharp whistle, shooting at the enemy ship behind him.

Under the gaze of the Japanese and the Japanese Kou, he easily tore most of the sails that were no longer in shape on the first side, and then quickly shot a hole in each of the two sails behind with two pops.

The sails that were originally blown by the wind immediately deflated, and the speed of the enemy ship immediately slowed down, and when the two ships opened up the distance, Chang Mao poked his head out from behind the female wall, "The son of a bitch still dares to fight with grandpa!" ”

He said it proudly, and he didn't expect to even scold himself together. However, when the surrounding soldiers heard this, they immediately became sycophants and praised Chang Qianhu's kung fu in fighting cannons.

As soon as Chang Mao entered the navy, he asked Ma Du for the title of a thousand households, and Ma Du agreed to it immediately, not for the sake of favoritism in the face of the big fish, Chang Mao does have this ability, in the past, the artillery battalion of the Shenji Battalion was not in vain, and there were indeed two strokes of playing with artillery.

Liao Yongan didn't have the slightest opinion on this, and this battle also arranged him and Qi Xiang in the important position of the tail ship, which was to take a fancy to his ability to fight artillery.

The herald on the top of the cabin, who was in charge of the flag, suddenly waved the flag twice at the ship in front, and shouted below: "Commander Qi, the governor has issued an order, saying that we can use the 'Dragon King out of the water'"

Chang Mao smiled: "This is enough for the Japanese to drink a pot, haha......"

Qi Xiang got out of the cabin and said, "Chang Mao, you can be careful, if something goes wrong, I have no way to explain to the governor, let alone Chang Gong." ”

"Why do I need you to answer for my own life!" Chang Mao waved his arm, "Brothers, please come out of the Dragon King!" ”

The soldiers rushed into the cabin and soon carried out the "dragon king" that Chang Mao had said. This dragon king doesn't look like a dragon, it's actually a wooden box, but the top plank is slightly larger, and there is a small hole in the middle that is sealed with paraffin wax and a small iron hook.

Chang Mao hung a ball of filament sticky net on a small iron hook, and asked the soldiers to gently put it into the sea along the side of the ship with a rope, and threw it into the sea along with the rope, and then slowly sank without a trace.

Chang Mao smiled, "I'll have a good show later, and then let's put it down!" ”

The so-called "dragon king out of the water" is actually a kind of mine, this is not such a crazy golden finger, Lao Zhu has long had this thing, not only mine mines.

Ma Du and Jiao Yu improved the mines together, and used them for the navy, using wood to make containers, waterproof seals with cowhide paraffin, and then using lead weights to suspend about two meters below the sea surface.

Small boats can easily pass over above, but large ships with deep drafts will not work, sticky nets will hang on the bottom of the ship or on the rudder, and then there will be a column of water rising into the sky, like a dragon going out to sea, thirty catties of granular black powder is enough to blow a big ship into two sections.

The biggest disadvantage is that the firing rate is too low, less than sixty percent, often because of poor sealing or unreliable hair pulling device caused by dumb fire, or a slightly larger fish may also let it detonate inexplicably, and the price of this kind of mine is expensive, one will cost eighty taels, anyway, Lao Zhu is sold to the navy at this price.

Although the mine is not perfect, it is better than nothing, Chang Mao did not know that firewood and rice were expensive, he asked the soldiers to release forty or fifty in one breath and did not stop, Qi Xiang stopped him and said: "Good things can't be used up all at once." ”

"Okay, don't let it go, anyway, it's enough for the Japanese to drink a pot, hehe......" As soon as Chang Mao's words fell, he heard a loud bang behind him, and when he turned around, he saw a column of water rising into the sky in the group of Japanese ships, and the huge splash faintly seemed to exceed the mast of the big ship.

"Exploded!" Chang Mao snorted, waved his fist excitedly, and then began to jump to his feet and scold, "Fucking just overturned a few boats, it's not worth it!" ”

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ……

There were a few loud bangs on their faces, snow-white water splashes with broken pieces of wood rose from the water, and several of the Japanese ships began to tilt rapidly after a violent shaking.

The huge and sturdy hull has been blasted out of huge holes, some keels have been broken, and the sea water has frantically poured into the cabin, and the Japanese on the ship have jumped out of the cabin and jumped into the sea, swimming to the nearby ships.

Jin Zilong doesn't know how many times he heard "Eight Grid Tooth Road" from Murakami's mouth today, in his eyes, Murakami has always been a calm and calm person who never likes to be shaped, and it is the first time he has seen such a manic and angry Murakami Shiqing in front of him.

"Eight Tooth Road! What kind of firearm is this, Xiaoshan-kun! Murakami gritted his teeth and stomped on the splint with clogs. ,

"Murakami-sama, it should be a mine." Kaneko replied in a whisper.

"Yaga!" Murakami jumped up angrily, and his palm finally reached Jin Zilong's face, "You know that there is such a good firearm, why don't you give it to Lord Ben earlier, and make some useless copper pipes." ”

Jin Zilong covered his face and hurriedly explained: "Lord Murakami misunderstood, the mines that his subordinates know are all used in rivers, and they are extremely inconvenient, and the power is not so great, this must be a new type of mine developed by the Ming army." ”

"When the Ming army is defeated this time, you will also make this new type of mine for Lord Ben!" Murakami grabbed Jin Zilong's chest angrily and shook angrily, in fact, he wanted to grab the collar.

"My subordinates will definitely devote themselves to research and development when they go back!" The hardcore dog traitor Jin Zilong nodded again and again, and added in his heart: "I hope I can go back." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he vaguely heard a loud muffled sound under his feet, and the ship trembled violently, with a creaking sound of wood breaking, the ship tilted rapidly, Kaneko Takashi hurriedly hugged the mast with one hand, and when he wanted to catch Murakami Shiqing with the other hand, he found that he had rolled into a ball and fell into the sea.
