Chapter 322. Cannons
Not by sails, not by oars! This life is all about waves! Now the Zheng family fleet is very wavery, in the dark night, a layer of white sea fog was raised in the sound of paddling, and there were more than fifty large boats, and the fleet composed of fast boats was moving forward like a ghost.
The set of gold wire on his body was also pulled out at this time, Zheng Zhilong actually bare his arms, and stepped on the more than 1,000-pound hair cannon at the bow of the clipper, a pair of eyes staring at the dark night sky in front of him like a shark, and from time to time he gasped bloodthirsty.
The destination of this fleet is not unfamiliar, Nagasaki!
"Xiucai is Xiucai, God chatters all day long, and when it comes to the real chapter, it is not good, as soon as I hear it, I will go to the fire and that, this is cowardly! Huh!"
A shark knife was wrapped around his hand, blowing the cold night breeze, Zheng Zhibao was still grinning with his teeth, and several other pirate leaders of Eighteen Zhi who listened to it also followed him.
"Maybe, maybe the military advisor has some other plan!"
Only Zheng Jing only defended himself, but unfortunately, even he was not confident enough, and this immediately made Zheng Zhibao laugh and slap him on the shoulder.
"Come on! If you want Lao Tzu to say that they literati are all vain, and if they really go into battle and fight desperately, they have to rely on our brothers! Big brother, do you say yes? ”
Zheng Zhilong snorted noncommittally, and his pair of moves always looked forward.
The distance between Ryukyu and Kyushu Island is really not far, this is light, and it happens to be a tailwind, only two or three hours of water, the day has just set off in the dark, and it is exactly midnight when it arrives.
This era is not as bright as the light pollution of later generations, Nagasaki Castle can still have a little nightlife, but after Mao Jue closed the port, Nagasaki Castle also degenerated from a commercial city to a hierarchical feudal city, only the newly built small castle tower can emit a little faint light, which can be regarded as a lighthouse, pointing out a path for the pirates of the South China Sea.
"Dragon's head! Nagasaki has arrived!"
Ahead, Shi Daxuan raised his nine-ring machete, pointed forward, Zheng Zhilong, who had been stepping on the cannon, finally hummed, put down his foot, and immediately pulled out a big knife, gestured twice behind him, and with a low cheer, the Zheng family pirates, who were shirtless or only wearing vests, were like rats out of the nest, hula and came out to the deck.
If it were above board, it wouldn't be called a pirate! Having said that, it is worthy of Zheng Zhilong's subordinates, more than a dozen longship sharks that are a bit like Vikings quietly entered Nagasaki Port, and there are many ships moored in the port, but most of the people at this point are sleeping and seeing Zhou Gong go, the longboat slid around the dense Japanese boats, and no one found it.
The bottom of the boat rushed to the beach with a piercing grinding sound, carrying a shark knife, Zheng Zhibao, who had the hottest temper, was the first to jump off the boat, holding the knife and pulling while lowering his voice and shouting.
"You guys! Go to the bell tower for Lao Tzu to occupy! Then hit the torch at the dragon's head, the third child, you fucking take the brothers to step on the surrounding plates, and there are mushrooms directly inserted! The rest of the people followed Lao Tzu to the main street, and went to the goddamn agency first!"
With his comparison, five or six hundred pirates swarmed around, these guys were really familiar with Nagasaki, the fanged pirate who was named kicked the broken houses near the beach one by one, and after making sure that there was no one, the archers climbed up to the roof with their hands on the wall, and several people went straight to the port as a lighthouse, and the bell tower six or seven meters high ran away, and the rest followed behind Zheng Zhibao, murderously along the main street and went straight to the small castle guard in the center of the city to kill, and the thieves captured the king first, and these pirates also understood.
But pirates are pirates in the end, just walked through a street by the port, carrying a knife and shirtless in the large procession, a one-eyed dragon wearing a red turban suddenly felt the urgency to urinate, and did not say hello, this guy went directly into the alley next to it, took off his pants, and put water on the corner of the wall.
It is estimated that there are too many pickles on the ship, and the water is burnt yellow, and there is a smell within half a meter, and it is poured in the corner of the wall, and a black and shiny helmet jumps up suddenly, and roars angrily with a wet head.
"Baga Ya Road! Dead, dead!"
I didn't expect a sleeping Japanese warrior to come out with a soak of urine, looking at the person who was still wiping his face, the one-eyed dragon laughed fiercely, and the knife was raised first.
But then he couldn't laugh, and in the sound of a bang, behind the urine warrior, one by one the black-helmeted samurai who were quarreled with were like mushrooms after the rain, one by one, and the sound of knives grinding through the scabbard came one after another, and after a few seconds, the entire alley was full of cold light samurai sword light.
It can be regarded as wiping off the white of the person on his face, holding the katana and looking at himself, the urine samurai grinned, and also showed a lewd smile on his face.
"That, the villain went the wrong way, you continue, continue, the little one retires first!"
Stared at by 10,000 Timos, the one-eyed dragon knife was thrown, and with a smirk, he slipped out of the alley with his pants.
But before he could slip out two steps, a sudden scolding sounded from behind him again.
"Baga Ya Road, swish!"
In the midst of a heavy fluttering sound, hundreds of katanas were raised high and slashed at his head, shouting "Mom! The one-eyed dragon also longed for his parents to give him more legs, crying for his father and crying for his mother's sorrow, and ran straight to the pirate team.
"Master Leopard! Ambush! ”
…………
On the sea, Zheng Jun's big boat was still slowly diving quietly towards Nagasaki Port, but when he came, all the big oars were replaced with small oars, and the sailors on the lower level tried to be as light as possible every time, not to make a sound, and stepped on the cannon, Zheng Zhilong was still staring at Nagasaki City in front of him with squinted eyes, but he was still thinking about Chen Yonghua in his head, thinking about his words before leaving.
Tap! The little fish is in front, and the real dragon is in the back! The potato is hot, just throw it away!
I know this sour scholar too well, he should have guessed something, but his grasp was too low, so he didn't tell himself, and he also reminded himself that he let the minions rush forward, and he must not follow forward, once he sees that things are not good, he should slip away!
In his heart, he looked down on this Song Xiance, and even with the master behind him, Mao Jue, he was too confident in his pirates, who would have thought that he would come all the way, still negotiating during the day, and immediately attacking at night? But Chen Yonghua's words still made Zheng Zhilong's heart a little uneasy.
But just when he was frowning and full of anxiety, on the bell tower, a torch shook violently against the sea, which suddenly made Zheng Zhilong breathe a sigh of relief, this is Zheng Zhibao's signal, which means that the port is successful!
The port has been snatched down, so what is polite, with a look on his face, Zheng Zhilong pulled out his knife again, and stuck his hands on the bow wood.
"Little ones, the tide is receding! The crab king is full of beaches, pick up the chop and carry the basket, and drive him to the sea!"
"Catch the sea!"
Starting from Zheng Zhilong's big boat, the sailors dragged a long sound, and the pirates who rowed the boat suddenly changed to big oars, and no matter what made a sound, the wide oar blades were rattling in the water, and the fleet suddenly sped up several times!
Catch the sea! The city is full of gold and silver treasures, and whoever gets the fuck will be whoever! Who doesn't want to send water? On the deck, the eyes of the pirates who had been waiting for a long time became even more frenzied, and the speed of the ship was like the wind.
But before the ship rushed out for two or three miles, in the dark Nagasaki City, a burst of fire flickered one after another, delayed for a second, and the sound of iron cannons like fried beans suddenly came into his ears, looking at the galloping Zheng Zhilong's face changed suddenly, the Western telescope was raised, and he stared at it for more than ten seconds, and the biggest pirate leader in the South China Sea roared angrily.
"The fourth is not good! The city was startled with Talon Sun! Pull the job side by side, and rush to Lao Tzu!"
As he roared, the rowing pirates sped up even faster, and their oars flew like flies.
However, not only Zheng Zhilong was anxious, but on the other side, there was also a group of people waiting anxiously and excitedly.
Nagasaki Castle is located in a bay surrounded by a circular coastal mountain, and on the top of the hill, a strange cement drum bag has a rice character on it, and the muzzle of the cannon sticks out from the middle of the rice character, facing the sea, and the telescope on the rice character is also looking at the moving fleet.
Under the feet is the most powerful artillery of the Dongjiang Army at this time, if according to the division of the British Navy, it is almost a full 32-pound monster-level coastal defense gun, it is estimated that in addition to the urban cannon used by the Turkish attack on Constantinople, this era of firearms, there are few guns comparable to these guns in caliber and range.
A total of eleven 32-pound shore defense guns weighing five tons are scattered behind the batteries in the Huanshan position, and these guns were originally prepared for the opening of Jeju Island and becoming an international port in Northeast Asia.
The telescope went down, Mao Jue was also nervously clenched into his fists, and he didn't have the slightest calmness and composure that the master should have, and he kept urging and muttering in his mouth.
"O turtle of your girl! Zheng Zhilong, hurry up! Hurry up!"
That nervous look was like I wanted to kick the Zheng family's sailors away and row by myself.
There is also a table on the observation table behind Mao Jue, and he is not afraid of night fat, Adriana has a piece of dim sum in her small mouth, and looks at the documents while chewing, this Mao Jue mutters endlessly, and she is also annoyed by the foreign girl, Hu Lu stuffed the dim sum into her small mouth and shouted impatiently.
"Sir! Didn't you Confucians say that Mount Tai collapsed in front of you and did not change its face? Can you keep your mind steady!"
Before he finished speaking, Mao Jue suddenly slapped his thigh fiercely: "Enter the buoy, two thousand meters, the third target!"
"It's in the buoy! Into the buoy! The third goal, correct the muzzle!"
Just now I was talking about being steady, but this girl was going for a ride, screaming and almost falling down the stairs of the observation port, in her scream, those who were anxiously waiting by the giant cannon suddenly became busy, and eight strong men shook the huge turntable wheel together, and the heavy muzzle was dragged by the thigh-thick chain, and the head was raised with a rumbling rumbling, stuck in the upper right hand of the rice-shaped launch port.
Looking at the cannon body, she squeezed to the telescope with a cheer, and Adriana noticed that Mao Jue was looking at herself with a strange face, and the girl she was looking at was also blushing, but she was super thick-skinned.
"The lord is a gentleman, it is natural that Mount Tai collapses in front of him and his face does not change his color, and the concubine is a woman, and it is natural to shout!"
What kind of fallacy? Mao Jue was speechless for a moment.
The two supreme leaders of the Dongjiang River chirped like children, and the artillery group below was not idle, the arquebus hissed in, covering their ears, and more than a dozen artillery pieces scattered in all directions, with a loud bang, and the entire battery was shocked and flickered.
Mao Jue only felt the shock, but Zheng Zhilong, who was sailing, really felt that death greeted him, this round of shelling was not good, eleven shells bombarded a unit, but only one shot was hit, but this one, shot into the foremast, penetrated the first and second decks and the bilge, and opened a transparent hole of more than two meters for Zheng Jun's big ship.
The keel was broken, and Zheng Zhilong, who was jumped into the water by the near side, turned his head incredulously, and looked at the forty-five-meter-long battleship beside him creaking away, clicking, and began to enter the water!
This round of shelling was also like a signal, and Yang Qi, the general of the Dongjiang Naval Division stationed on Iki Island, jumped up excitedly as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.
"The general has sent a signal, march!"
In the loud horns, the dense Dongjiang fleet sailed out of the port one after another, and the sickle edge shape of the Grim Reaper outflanked Nagasaki Island.
Zheng Zhilong is so famous that he has too many examples to study, especially when he won the battle of his rival Xu Suxin, he relied on a knife behind his back with a smile in his face, and a surprise attack killed Xu Suxin in the port, according to the news brought by Luo Ning, Mao Jue was fifty percent sure that this guy would come to attack him.
Song Xiance went to pretend to be a grandson, but also to let him despise him, lure the snake out of the hole, in Nagasaki City, Mao Jue ambushed nearly 10,000 warriors, and the fleet waited for him to throw himself into the net, sure enough, the arrangement of this night did not blow a cool breeze in vain.
It's a pity that Dongjiang is not exhaustive, and the information brought back by Song Xiance was ignored by Mao Jue, or half of it was ignored, Zheng Zhilong was too gorgeous! It's so extravagant!
This Mao Jue looked at the big boat that had been pierced by a cannon and started silently throwing around in circles, and was excitedly throwing his fist down, but then Adriana screamed in dismay, and hurriedly crowded in front of the telescope, Mao Jue was immediately dumbfounded.
"This ...... is too cowardly!"
In the first round of shelling, only one shot was hit, Zheng Zhilong didn't even want the team to go ashore, and the assault fleet composed of fifty clippers under the order turned his head to the right neatly, and actually began to retreat, Mao Jue's eyes almost ran out of breath, and he shouted angrily.
"Turtle Sun is going to run, hurry up and prepare, and then bomb the damn!"
It's a pity that the bigger the cannon, the farther the range, the slower the firing speed, this iron law can't be violated even if Mao Jue is in a hurry, and the giant cannon roared again, it was already five minutes later, and the cannon yuan didn't have time to calibrate how good, and the eight giants shook the wheel to shake the turret that was five or six meters away because of the recoil as soon as they shook it back, and the fire rope was already lit.
However, the capital chaos killed the master, this round of artillery bombardment that was not too aimed was hit by four cannons, which should have something to do with the Zheng army gathering too densely at once, two of the cannons hit a boat, and in the roaring cracking sound, the peripheral clippers that were not too strong were actually torn in half directly, the Titanic sank down like a grunt, and the panicked Zheng Jun pirates fell into the water like dumplings.
At the same time, at sea level, the pilot lights of the Dongjiang River also flashed...... Please Baidu "Throw Book Network" Thank you for your support!
