462 The end of the naval battle

For some reason, Wang Wei always felt that something was wrong.

No, no, a battleship has reached this point, just like a dying warrior, knowing that he can't live, the heroic warrior will choose to abandon everything and pull a cushion to go together, so as to be a warrior in vain.

And this battleship behaves like a coward, and it is really ashamed of its identity as a battleship when it comes to this point and still wants to escape.

Wang Wei was very dissatisfied, feeling that this was an insult to the battleship and an insult to the sea battle, so he pushed away a gunner, operated a cannon himself, loaded it with a solid bullet, and used the door and crosshair, and used Xiao Ruxun's method to train them to aim and improve the accuracy as much as possible.

"Bomb that ship down for Lao Tzu!!"

Wang Wei shouted.

A dozen guns roared again, and heavy solid bullets rushed towards the crumbling battleship with a warm and frantic current.

One, two, three, four, five!

The hit rate of the artillery is really a bit unsatisfactory, this is the case on the road, and the same is true at sea, the distance is shortened, and I don't know where I can fly, and the flintlock gun can also pull rifling into it to increase accuracy, but Wang Wei doesn't know how to add some accuracy to the artillery.

Xiao Ruxun knew, but one or two such cannons didn't mean anything to the battle situation, and the old craftsmen didn't seem to have any good methods.

Forget it, so be it, that ship is finished anyway, isn't it? Five shells were the straw that broke the camel's back, and the five solid shells smashed into the ship, causing a wave of air to roll.

I don't know if it hit the last vital point, with a shock, the ship actually cracked in the middle, and the hull on both sides actually tilted separately on both sides, sinking slowly, and a lot of whirlpools rolled up around it.

It seems that someone tried to escape from the small boat on board, but unfortunately, they were caught in the whirlpool and could not escape, and they sank in the bottomless sea, and none of the surrounding Spanish warships dared to rescue them...... That's right, no one wants to be dragged into hell by this giant ship.

"Hahaha! Medium!! ”

Wang Wei was ecstatic in his heart, and shouted frantically with the surrounding soldiers, the Ming army sank a Spanish warship again, and the results of the battle increased again, it is conceivable that this time I can get a lot of honor and money, and I can drink wine and eat meat, and enjoy it to the fullest.

I don't know if it's a symbol, but after the battleship was sunk, the surrounding Spanish battleships completely lost their will to fight, and they actually tried to escape one after another.

Wang Wei didn't see it well, these guys were going to escape, and immediately ordered the main force of his detachment to bite the other party and not allow them to escape, and pursued them with all their might until they were sunk.

The Spaniards' counterattack began to become weak and weak, as if they were only thinking about escaping, and in the face of the fierce fire of the Ming army, they were not as firm as before, and Wang Wei himself could not figure out what was going on.

The main fleet was fleeing from the battlefield here, and soon, the Spanish fleet, which was fighting with the Ming gunboats, also realized something, and began to prepare to retreat.

Jiang Dahai also didn't understand, seeing the sudden change in the situation on the battlefield, Xiao Ruxun was also a little surprised.

However, taking advantage of his illness to kill him is the six-character mantra that Xiao Ruxun handed over to the sailor, and there must be no woman's kindness on the battlefield of naval warfare, as long as it is an enemy, it must be resolutely fought until death, and do everything possible to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and do not give them any chance to survive and take revenge in the future.

Jiang Dahai deeply understood Xiao Ruxun's six-character mantra, and took it as his guiding ideology, striking the enemy very fiercely, rarely catching prisoners, basically the remaining soldiers after sinking the warship were shot to death, or fished up and cut off their heads for silver, and there was absolutely no such thing as letting them go.

Isn't this the time?

So Jiang Dahai and Xiao Ruxun glanced at each other and nodded to each other.

"Chase on! Chase and fight! I'll sink them all!! ”

The Ming flagship gave the order for a second general attack, and the majestic drums once again resounded throughout the battlefield, and all the Spaniards were horrified to find that the Ming army, instead of stopping the pursuit and cheering for victory because of their retreat, had run over them more ferociously, and was in great danger of fighting them to the death again.

The Ming army not only had sharp artillery, but more importantly, their guns were sharper, after several Ming warships caught up with their warships, they not only shot with artillery, but also with firearms, they didn't know how to shoot so accurately with guns, one shot hit the top of the head, one shot killed.

One fled to the port, the other pursued frantically, and the war finally became a one-sided situation.

The resistance of the last Spanish warship ended at sunset, and when Xiao Ruxun could already see the coastline with a clairvoyant mirror, the last round of artillery bombardment by the Ming army finally sent the last Spanish warship down to the depths of the sea.

So far, except for five Spanish warships that fled in a hurry and did not know the direction so that the Ming army could not pursue, the Ming army sank more than 40 Spanish warships in total, basically wiped out the Spanish Philippine Combined Fleet, and captured another Spanish ship.

Speaking of which, the reason why this big ship was captured is also quite funny, because the indigenous Filipino sailors on board did not want to die, so they rebelled en masse.

They stacked up with their superiority in numbers, killed most of the Spanish soldiers who resisted, then captured the ship's leaders, took control of the entire ship, and then surrendered to the Ming army.

After Xiao Ruxun brought all the Chinese back to Burma, there were no more Chinese sailors in the Philippines to recruit.

The Spaniards had no manpower, and their men were to be used as sailors to attack, but sailors were always needed to sail the ships, so they had no choice but to bribe the chiefs of the indigenous tribes with large sums of money in exchange for their support.

When those leaders saw the money, they sent their own people to help, but they didn't expect this gang to help with blood mold, not only the Spaniards almost all died, but a large number of Filipino native sailors also died.

Only the indigenous sailors on this ship were bold, seeing that they were going to sink to the bottom of the sea like those people and feed the fish, but they were unwilling to accept their fate and did not want to feed the fish, so they tried to survive.

People's desire to survive is very terrible, so they took advantage of the Spaniards' desperate resistance to the Ming army, secretly organized, a group of strong men secretly took the Spaniards' cold weapons, and then saw the Spaniards swing their swords and cut down, and soon occupied the entire ship, and then surrendered to the Ming army.
