Chapter 201: Scuffle and End

The age of sails and the age of galleys were thus separated.

Chen Jia's ship plunged into the enemy in a straight line! The guns on both sides not only fired! It's all over, dozens or hundreds of meters of crazy bombing! The soldiers on the deck, dressed only in cuirasers, lightly gathered together and fired a salvo with muskets!

The era of the battle line!

Almost in a moment, the ship on the opposite side had been blown to pieces! The hull is full of holes, and the oarsmen inside are too staggered to paddle together again! Incredibly, after this trip, Chen Dong's seat was hardly damaged!

"That's it!!" Chen Jiapa's telescope closed, and he put his hand behind his back and said, "My emperor is invincible in the world!" Go on! ”

Why didn't Chen Jia care about Wang Chang and Li Anshi's fleet? Because their fleets were not much different from the enemy, perhaps the only more advanced ones were Wang Chang's few ships allocated from him, but Wang Chang had no soldiers, so he had to use the murderous Berbers to play gang warfare and make bumper boats, which Chen Jia looked down on; Li Anshi's group of hula-la-stray hairs also had a jumping gang battle, and Chen Jia looked down on it.

Chen Jia likes cannons!

Cannon blast!

"Order! Split into two teams! Artillery battle around the rear! Chen Jia noticed that the left wing on this side had been smashed by himself, and the middle line and the right wing were still fighting with the Han Chinese. He turned back slightly, and sure enough, the Greeks were fine with the water, but their armor was a little heavy; And the Berbers looked like they were killing very well. They don't care about their lives anyway. If you are dead, you can go to North Africa to recruit. Yang Yuting said that one person can buy grain in a crockpot.

Chen Jia estimated that this might be the cheapest labor.

In a distraction, the warship had already divided into two rows and headed for the left and right sides. Roaring shells whizzed across the arc, sinking several small sampans full of men.

"Lost." Giustiniani put away the telescope he had bought from Pan Daoquan. Then he said to Conrad, "Go back quickly." Sicily will be in turmoil, and Naples may declare its independence from Aragon. We also want to do something to get Sardinia. ”

Conrado was convinced of the Genoese star's words.

What's more, the discerning people have already seen that although the two parts of the Han warships are in a scorching situation, the devastating attack of that large ship has made countless zombies in the Lombard coalition army. If we continue to fight, it will only be a matter of how many people will die and how many ships will be sunk.

"Has the two-pounder been developed?" Giustiniani asked Conrad.

This refers to the two-pounder cannon of the Han people. It's a big guy weighing six hundred pounds, not a small cannon weighing dozens of pounds.

"There's still a little bit of a problem, it's just not very stable." Conrado said cautiously, "The news from the Genoese workshop is uncertain, and there is always a bad feeling in their words. ”

"Experiments will always fail, it's inevitable. The top priority is that we hurry up and make the artillery bigger and heavier! Just like their ships! We also have to put cannons on the side of the ship! More cannons! Otherwise, the Venetians are a lesson for the Eastern Mediterranean! Giustiniani's words are not alarmist.

It has long been customary for the Genoese to be in the Western Mediterranean, the Venetians to be in the Eastern Mediterranean, and the Black Sea to be divided into two parts. But as soon as the Han people came out, they first robbed the Genoese of the northern part of the Black Sea, and then robbed the Venetians of the southern part of the Black Sea. Now go into the Mediterranean and drive the Venetians everywhere. Seeing that the Ionian Sea (presumably the eastern and southern seas of Sicily, see Google Maps) was about to fall, the Genoese had to worry about where the Han were going to go.

As the sun set, the Genoese quietly left the battlefield unscathed.

And other people's ships........ Most of the ships, including the Milanese, who were not at sea, were either fed to fish or taken away by the Han Chinese.

The advantage of gang jumping is that you can grab boats, grab a lot of boats.

"Expand the port of Otranto! Ships are repaired here! The rest, come north with me! Naples, Urbino, the Papal States, Dalmatia and Istria! Hahaha! Hope they're ready! ”

Chen Jia got carried away with the order, not only him, but also all the generals. Almost everyone shuddered with joy.

It is clearly written in the battle strategy before departure, Venice and other northern Italian countries are rich, very rich! Compared to them, the treasury of the Great Han does not look so much like that of a rich man. Venice earns 1.5 million ducats a year, which is 1.25 million at the current exchange rate!

Fiorentina earned 400,000 ducats last year! Genoa is slightly less than the Venetians! But there are also more than a million!

Except for Genoa, an undisclosed ally, everyone else is an enemy!

"It's a pity!" Wang Chang said helplessly.

"What a pity?" Li Anshi asked impatiently.

"Of course, it's a pity that we can't cross the Strait of Messina and loot all the countries along the coast, such as Siena and Lucca!" Wang Chang was speechless.

Chen Jia had just boarded the boat, and he laughed loudly when he heard it: "Haha, it's okay. The Genoese will not be allies for life, and we will definitely go to the Tyrrhenian Sea {that is, the seas of Sicily, Naples, Sardinia}! ”

The Battle of Otranto, the forces of Northern Italy were almost completely wiped out!

With the exception of one ally, who did not want to be named, the rest of the world is almost all destroyed. Cardinal leader Alfonso was captured, Duke Francisco Fascarini committed suicide, blah blah, blah blah!

Pope Nicholas V is said to have suffered a stroke and can no longer serve as a governor. Venice is in turmoil, and a new leader is now being elected and discussions are being held about how to defend against the enemy. The Grand Duke of Milan demanded that the Venetians and the Pope compensate him for his losses, Florence went to war with Luca and Siena again, and the cities of Ferrara, Mantua and Modena fought again.

Behind all this, of course, is the refusal of the Pope to fart again.

Frederick III was collecting taxes in Tyrol at this time, and when he heard the news, he was so frightened that he hurriedly wrote an IOU and ran back to Vienna.

Sicily and the Kingdom of Naples also saw an opportunity to start a rebellion, and they prepared to have another vespers with Sicily.

On top of that, Mehmed II of Skanderbebe, who conquered Albania, was right on the shore.

On the shores of the ancient city of Oron (present-day Vlora, Albania), Mehmed II witnessed the greatest naval battle of the century.

"Shhh..... Han...... I have to guard against it! Mehmed II said cold-bloodedly.
