Chapter 487: Burning Buckingham Palace?

In just six seconds, there was a dense rain explosion on the "Sun", and the 1,200-ton galleon was blown apart in the blink of an eye, and the hull of the ship became a state of fragments, becoming floating objects on the water, many of which were still smoking and catching fire, only the bow and stern could still retain their original shape, and the bow and stern "boom!" "It sank into the sea with a thud.

"Shhh Weddell and the others gasped and were shocked! Extreme shock! It's incredible!

Although the fire rate of the naval guns of the Tiance Army is very fast, and the flight speed of the cannonballs is also very fast, the trajectory can still be faintly seen by such dense shells, especially the whistling sound of the cannonballs as they cut through the air, and the scalps of those who listen to it are numb.

"Two miles, their shells can hit two miles, and it's flowering shells!" Lieutenant Pete lost his voice.

A cold sweat broke out on Weddell's forehead, and he suddenly felt an irresistible sense of powerlessness. How long does it take to sink a battleship like the Sun? Usually after a day's fighting, hundreds of eighteen-pound shells, it can still fight, and just a moment of effort, the "Sun" is gone, just a fucking vanish!

"Their cannons not only hit far, but also accurately!" Weddell muttered as he sweated profusely.

As you can see just now, almost none of the enemy's shells missed, and basically all of them hit the "Sun", which can be judged by the fact that there were not many water columns around the "Sun".

Such a close distance is almost a hundred shots for a fire control radar that has a computer to calculate the data.

"This is the sea area of the Ming Empire, you not only violated the maritime rights and interests of the Ming Empire, but also violated our territory, and committed heinous crimes against our people, now I advise you to surrender immediately and stop making useless resistance."

The other side began to shout again, and Mount said anxiously: "Captain Weddell, surrender, we are no match for them." ”

Weddell's hand was trembling, he stared at the Tiance Army warship in the distance, with a complex look of fear, unwillingness, despair and other complexities on his face, run away? Can't run away, the enemy's ship is too fast.

"Raise the white flag!" Weddell finally made up his mind.

"Captain!" Lieutenant Pete exclaimed.

Weddell waved his hand to stop: "Don't say it again, maybe surrender can still be forgiven by the Chinese, otherwise our fleet will be finished." ”

Lieutenant Pete was stunned, the scene just now was too exciting, too terrifying, and he also knew that their fleet had no chance of winning.

The British battleship raised the white flag and surrendered and conceded defeat, the sails were lowered, the gun windows were closed, and according to the instructions of the Tiance Army, everyone on the British battleship went to the Tiance Army battleship in a small boat to accept the prisoners.

During the whole process, the coast guard warship lowered two patrol law enforcement boats to monitor along the way.

Wang Yue was not surprised that the British army decided to surrender so cleanly, he knew that the Europeans were not ashamed of their inability to resist and chose to surrender, not to mention that the Tiance army's strike performance just now was too shocking, and no matter how stupid people were, they knew that resistance was a dead end.

Most of the captives were sent to the bottom cargo compartment of the ro-ro wheel, and important people such as Weddell were taken to the landing ship for questioning.

After getting on the landing ship, Weddell and the others secretly rejoiced that they had chosen to surrender, this turned out to be a steel battleship, no matter how they estimated, their own battleship had no chance of sinking such a battleship. Even if you stop there and let your six battleships bombard with all the artillery, the projectile will not sink after it is finished.

The more they walked inside the landing ship, the more frightened Weddell and the others became, God! When did the Chinese become so advanced? We tossed around the coast of Guangdong for several months, but we didn't find anything at all, and we always felt that they were very backward.

One thing is also very strange to them, they have all seen the Ming army, why is the military uniform of this army so strange, and it is completely different from that of the Ming army.

The soldiers of the Tiance Army who escorted them found that these foreign devils were rolling their eyes wildly, aiming everywhere, and when they went up, they shouted at the butt of a gun on the back of Weddell, whose hands were bound: "Why don't you go quickly, what are you looking at?" ”

Poor Captain Weddell, though he had been here for a few months, did not understand Chinese, so he had to nod his head again and again, indicating that he was harmless to humans and animals, and at the same time quickened his pace.

"Report, captured enemy leader brought." The escorting soldier reported loudly.

"Let them in!"

Taken to the landing ship's office were none other than Captain Weddell, commercial representatives, Mount Mountney, and Lieutenant Pitt.

After they came in, Wang Yue looked carefully, and the British military uniform of this era was still very fancy, the kind of dark blue and red turned-sleeved baroque military uniform similar to a half-coat.

"Which one is Captain William Weddell?" Wang Yue asked in English.

Lisa was not surprised that Wang Yue could speak English, because many of the products in the starting point city had English on the outer packaging. Only Liu Rushi and others would be surprised, and they only felt that this Lord Wang was really knowledgeable.

Although Wang Yue has a North American colonial hillbilly accent, it is very rare for Weddell to be able to hear English thousands of miles away, not to mention that he is now a captive, so he dare not laugh at Wang Yue.

"Dear General, I'm William Weddell, I don't know what you call me?" Weddell bowed. He saw that Wang Yue was also wearing a military uniform, so he asked.

Wang Yue's English is also the foundation of university, and there is still too little practice in language dialogue, but it doesn't matter that he has simultaneous translation software in his mobile phone, plus his own foundation, it is completely enough.

"I am the left squire of the military department of the Ming government, the governor of Yingtian, and the commander of the Tiance Army, Wang Yue." Wang Yue introduced.

Weddell was unfamiliar with the official position of the Ming Dynasty, but he still understood that although he was young, he was a high-ranking official of the Ming government.

Weddell bowed again and said, "Your Excellency Lord Wang, it is an honor to meet you, first of all, I apologize for what my fleet did on the coast of Guangdong some time ago, and I hope to receive your forgiveness. ”

"Smack!" Wang Yue slapped the table and shouted, "Can just apologies solve the problem?" You are complete robbers, and what you have done has offended the prestige of my Ming Dynasty, and according to the laws of our country, you are all capital crimes! ”

As soon as Wang Yue's words fell, the commercial representative Mount directly knelt down: "Oh, dear Lord Wang, it is a complete misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!" We came to the beautiful Ming from far away Europe, the main purpose was to establish trade relations with the Ming, and all the conflicts were misunderstandings because of mutual misunderstanding. ”

"Misunderstanding?" Wang Yue sneered: "If I lead the fleet to break through London and burn down Buckingham Palace, will I only need a misunderstanding?" ”
