Chapter 661: A Contest Between Men! (Page 1/1)
The Liverpool, which had high hopes, was actually attacked by a clipper ship much smaller than him, looking at the Liverpool that had not moved, and the sound of explosions from time to time, it was obvious that the white-knuckle battle had been carried out at the most intense moment.
Could it be that the Changxing Army is really the nemesis of the Europeans? Destined to defeat the Europeans and dominate the entire eastern seas? No way! Nothing like this can be allowed to happen!
He! The great smuggling captain, Royal Navy Commander of England, Weddell, must not let this happen. There is only one owner of the sea, and that is England.
Since the Oriental people want to rise, they have to pass their own level, looking at the Changxing Army battleships that are getting closer and closer. Weddell let out an angry roar from his mouth: "Changxing Army! Come on! Let Captain Weddell tell you who is the true master of the sea! ”
While Weddell rushed towards Zhang Dou to take the ship, the other three pairs of battleships were also in a fierce battle. The speed of the battleships moving in opposite directions was almost equal, and the two battleships did not have any fancy bombardment at all.
A distance of 150 paces is equivalent to putting a gun on the opponent's head, and almost every shot will hit the opponent.
This kind of hard-fought contest is completely a contest of willpower, and the competition is the speed of firing under heavy pressure. Each additional round of shelling could be the difference between victory and defeat, and the gunners on both sides were also risking their lives to shell.
It was clear that the more experienced English gunners were better able to withstand the pressure, and they gradually gained the upper hand over time. Although he was beaten badly by the Changxing army, he still had a certain strength to fight back.
"Change the incendiary flowering bomb!" At the last moment, the Changxing Army finally used a killer weapon. It was not that the captain of the Changxing army wanted to use valuable soldiers to fight against the English at the beginning, but they really wanted to use three shells per ship to rescue Zhang Dou's ship.
They belong to the fleet that stayed behind to protect Zhang Dou, according to Zhang Dou's idea: good steel must be used on the blade!
If it weren't for Zhang Huan's strong request, there wouldn't have been a single special shell in the remaining fleet. Among them, Zhang Dou's ship did not even have a special flowering bomb, and it was completely a solid bomb.
The Changxing Army, which was replaced with special flowering shells, destroyed the English battleship with only one round of shooting, and both sides were half-crippled and floating at sea.
There is also combat power left, and the flagships of both sides are left, and this kind of duel relying on flagships can stimulate people's nerves even more. Not to be outdone, the two battleships approached each other, and the second mile did not fire, and the first mile did not fire either.
As if agreed at the same time, both sides set their sights on melee heavy artillery bombardment. At a distance of 100 paces, when the two sides saw each other's faces clearly, the artillery of both sides invariably roared angrily.
In an instant, the sides of the two battleships were constantly hit by shells, and wood chips flew all over the sky. Both the sailors on the deck and the gunners on the artillery deck were baptized by the rain of sawdust, and screams rang out from both ships at the same time.
After only one round of encounters, he left deep scars on the other party, and when the two ships staggered past, Wang Lang also let the Chuyang Cannon fire a round of scattered bullets.
A metal storm swept through Weddell's ship, killing and wounding nearly the entire upper deck of sailors. The artillery deck was not having a good time either, half of the gunners were killed or wounded and could not participate in the battle, and the deck was stained red with blood.
Weddell himself was lucky, he was stabbed by three sawdust. Fortunately, none of them are fatal parts, and you can command the battle with a simple bandage of wood chips.
A piece of wood slashed across Weddell's forehead, staining half of his face red. Weddell stood up and immediately ordered the battleship to turn around and rush towards the Changxing army again.
"Lads! The opponent has been crippled by you, just give the opponent a little more light, and we can achieve the final victory! The glory of the British Empire awaits you, and your undefeated prestige will be passed on from generation to generation.
Let's move forward again and take down the opponent once and for all! To hell with the damned Orientals! Use the cannons in your hands to tell them that we are the masters of the sea, and let them go home and farm!
Tell them with the sword in your hand! We, the British Empire, are the hegemons of the sea, and anyone who wants to provoke will have to pay the price! Long live the British Empire! ”
Weddell's eloquent speech revived the fighting spirit of the England sailors, who stood on the deck covered in blood and raised their arms in response to the invincible and legendary captain.
The Zhang Douzuo ship was also not lightly injured by the English battleship, and which side of the side was almost broken. If it weren't for Wang Lang's ruthless attack on Weddell with a scatter bomb in the end, the Changxing Army would have suffered a big loss.
England is not a real maritime power, and without the early sun cannon, they are really no match for England. There were many casualties among the naval soldiers on board, and now the busiest people were treating the wounded.
Wang Lang fell to the ground during the shelling, and his back made the splinters of wood a hedgehog. If he hadn't pounced in time, he would probably have been beaten to minced meat by the other party now.
Enduring the pain in his back, Wang Lang came to Zhang Dou to check the safety of the handsome. When he arrived in front of Zhang Dou, Wang Lang breathed a sigh of relief, and the two soldiers holding iron shields protected Zhang Dou very well.
And a full-body plate armor made of high manganese steel is to block the wood chips that few soldiers missed, and it can be said that Zhang Dou is the safest person on the ship.
Seeing that Zhang Dou was safe and sound, Wang Lang immediately asked Zhang Dou to leave by sampan. Zhang Dou listened to Wang Lang's words and didn't say anything, just pointed to the blood-colored sun and moon banner flying high on the mast.
Wang Lang immediately understood Zhang Dou's thoughts, there was no reason to retreat if the banner had been hung out, even if there was only the last person left, Zhang Dou would fight to the end.
Zhang Dou's ship turned around and hedged against Weddell's battleship again, this time with no intention of avoiding it. The two battleships collided at relative full speed, and Wang Lang did not dodge because he had sufficient confidence in his battleship, and the huge bronze cast ramming angle under the waterline must have been enough for the Englishmen to drink a pot.
Weddell did not change direction, but he had his own troubles, because two warships were separated from the battlefield in the distance to return to the rescue.
The speed of those two warships was very fast, and they would soon be able to reach the sea area where they were engaged. Although the seven dry silk warships escaped because of the return voyage of these two warships, the Changxing army quickly blocked the gap again.
No more than twenty ships could escape back this time in the naval battle, and it was up to those who escaped to not be caught up by the wolf-like Exocet clippers.
There was not much time left for Weddell, and he didn't have time to break down the defenses of the Changxing warship little by little, and then board the ship for white-knuckle combat.
Looking at the battleship that was getting closer and closer, Weddell's eyes were full of fierceness, "Let's go!" Let's have a battle between men! ”
