Takehisa Matsumoto saw Akito attack his right flank again, and the corners of his eyebrows involuntarily jumped a few times.

If Akito is allowed to fight like this, it won't take a few rounds for his fleet to be consumed.

I can't let Akito fight like this anymore, Takehisa Matsumoto said to himself.

"Order both the ironclad and the fireship to the right flank, and all the small ships loaded with oil. If we don't defeat the Ming people today, we will never see the sunrise tomorrow! Ay! Takehisa Matsumoto let out a long sigh after speaking.

The fleet of the Satsuma Domain's sailors was busy for a while, and several ironclad houses inlaid with iron plates slowly sailed out of the fleet and approached the right flank.

Alan stood in the aft tower of the Sea Shark 1 battleship, using a clairvoyant mirror to observe the changes in the fleet of the Satsuma Domain. When he saw the ironclad houseship, he was surprised and said, "The Japanese people have built the same ironclad warship as my country!" ”

When Zhang Dou heard this, he also looked there, these clumsy ironclad houses were completely different from the turtle boats of the North Korean sailors.

The turtle ships of North Korea are defended with thin iron sheets at important points, while the ironclad houses are real full-body iron armor.

Looking at the non-stop rowing of hundreds of oarsmen on his hull, Zhang Dou knew the heaviness of this ironclad house.

The small sails on the bow and stern of the ironclad are limited in what they can do, and all of it comes from the oarsmen.

Zhang Dou couldn't help but wonder curiously, how did the sailors of the Satsuma Domain, who was such a heavy ship, drive him here?

Eren looked at it for a moment, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face, although the defense of the ironclad Ataku ship was amazing. But its shortcomings are also very obvious, and the lack of firepower is the biggest disadvantage of this type of ship.

The speed of the ship is a fatal flaw, and this turtle shell will be sunk even if it resists fighting.

Seeing the change in the fleet of the Satsuma Domain, a sneer appeared on Allen's face. Do you really think you're a fool? Do you have to hit the iron plate?

"Command to cut straight to the left of the Japanese fleet!" Under the command of the Banner, the Nagaijima Navy quickly turned and cut towards the left side of the Satsuma Domain's fleet.

At this moment, the Galen ship has the advantages of flexible steering and fast speed. Just by drawing an arc on the sea, he changed direction and rushed towards the left flank of the enemy ship.

Seeing that Akito had changed direction, Takehisa Matsumoto wanted to cry without tears. The turtle speed of the ironclad Antaku ship could not keep up with the speed of the Ming warship at all, and a single turn made his arrangement go to waste.

The two Ataka boats on the left and the large and small Seki boats were once again live targets, although they desperately fired back.

However, hitting the Sea Shark warship with the big barrel on their ship is equivalent to tickling, and there is basically no possibility of breaking the board of the Sea Shark warship if they shoot at close range.

When the Akito warship rushed over again, the hearts of all the Japanese people sank to the bottom of the sea. In just two attacks, they lost thirty percent of their sea ships.

The most important thing is that Akito's battleship is almost undamaged, and it will be the same if it continues to fight. They saw little hope of victory, could they still win this battle?

Seeing the low morale of the fleet, Takehisa Matsumoto shouted, "Warriors of the Satsuma Domain! Does Akito's strength scare you? Are you afraid of Akito, or the descendants of Amaterasu? ”

Seeing that the people on his warship were all looking at him, Takehisa Matsumoto met their gaze and said: "Sacrifice and dedication are only temporary, as long as the encircled fleet arrives, the Ming people will definitely have nowhere to escape!" ”

Hearing that there was still a surrounding flotilla, everyone's eyes lit up.

"The Ming people are afraid of our ironclad house, and they don't dare to attack there at all. As long as we persevere, victory will definitely belong to the Shimazu family of the Great Satsuma Domain! Takehisa Matsumoto shouted loudly, not like an old man at all.

He immediately took a small morning boat to the largest ironclad Ataka ship, and when the flag was raised, all the Japanese people in the fleet of the Satsuma clan shouted.

The fact that his own commander personally came to the front line of the battle greatly improved the morale, and the fleet suddenly moved.

The remaining fleet of the Wa Kingdom began to revolve around five ironclad Ataku ships and dozens of small early fire ships, and as soon as the navy of Changsheng Island approached them, they immediately hid behind the ironclad Ataka ships.

The fireship hidden behind the ironclad house ship immediately poured out of the nest and rushed towards the navy of Changsheng Island.

The next few attacks on Changsheng Island failed to achieve the same results as the previous two times, except for sinking a dozen small morning ships and a few closed ships.

Allen's several attacks did not achieve much success, and he couldn't help but be a little anxious. Seeing that the Japanese people actually played delaying tactics, he immediately ordered: "Let the young men outside also move to give the Japanese people some color and see, so that they can know why the flowers are so red!" As soon as this sentence came out of Zhang Dou's mouth, it quickly became popular within the Changxing Army.

Although the sea canopy and bird ships that roamed the periphery to prevent the Satsuma Domain's sailors from escaping did not have the combat power of sea sharks and flying fish, the 3-pounder and 6-pounder guns on their ships were much more powerful than the Satsuma Domain's fleet.

Seeing the flags issued by the flagship, they all surrounded the rear of the Satsuma Domain's fleet.

For a time, the sound of artillery was loud, and the smoke of gunpowder filled this sea area. Shells continued to hit the ships, and the sound of broken planks, screams and fighting resounded in the sea.

With all the warships of Immortal Island thrown into battle, the fleet of the Satsuma Domain soon became overwhelmed. Although their Ataka ships are very sturdy, the lack of speed makes them a good target.

Except for being able to act as a meat shield to defend against artillery fire, most of the guns of the Satsuma Domain were old-fashioned guns of their own making.

Not only is the weight heavy, but the amount of gunpowder that can be loaded is also very limited. As a result, the Satsuma Domain's artillery was small in power and had a short range, and it often suffered heavy casualties when firing at the Nagako Army's sea ships.

They also had powerful Franc guns, which the Shimazu family of the Satsuma domain had bought from Franc at great expense.

Some of them were imitated by their own craftsmen, and the other part was installed on the most powerful ironclad Ataku ships.

In the eyes of the Japanese people, only the best warships are worthy of these large cylinders bought with a lot of money, but it is these ironclad houses that make Takehisa Matsumoto suffer.

Even if the clumsy hull of the ship is exhausted, it is impossible for the oarsman to catch up with the enemy ship, and watch his own ships be sunk by the Ming people one by one.

And Mingren's giant ship was not damaged, and even the clipper was only slightly injured and did not affect the battle. The pitiful result was the sinking of two bird boats and a sea canopy.

And only half of the ships of the strongest sailors of their Satsuma Domain remained, and the ships were heavily lost, and there were less than thirty small ships left, and there were still seven large Ataku ships, and five ironclad Ataka ships confronted the Ming giant ship unscathed.

There are still half of the ships that transported the troops, and thousands of Satsuma Domain samurai are soaked in the sea, and I don't know what the fate will be!

"If the sneak attack fleet doesn't show up again, the Satsuma Domain will be over!" Takehisa Matsumoto muttered.
