Rodriguez took the clairvoyant mirror in the first mate's hand and looked at it carefully, only to see that a big-bellied Galen ship in the opponent's warship was particularly conspicuous.

The Amsterdam, which is clearly from the Netherlands, is undoubtedly not the ship sunk in the storm? How can it appear in the enemy camp? Don't?

Before Rodriguez could figure it out, the Changxing Army achieved results. An 18-pound shell hit the bow of the Ceuta, and even from a distance of three miles, the destructive power of the shell was staggering.

A large hole was cut in the bow of the Ceuta, and several sailors were injured by the scattered flying wood chips.

Fortunately, the part where the shell hit was fooled in the bow of the ship, not close to the waterline. Otherwise, the dry silk people would cry to death, but despite this, the arrogant and screaming dry silk people suddenly quieted down. Was this shell intentional or a coincidence? It would be terrible if the enemy could still guarantee a hit rate at such a distance.

The battleship of the Dry Wax Man advanced less than a mile, and the aft tower of the Alcala was hit again, and the two hits in succession made the Dry Wax Man no longer have the arrogant appearance just now.

The enemy can hit continuously from such a distance, and several opponents are not lucky, but they are really sure of hitting.

This shows that the opponent's artillery is much more advanced than its own, at least the hit rate is much stronger in the face.

Zheng Yiguan saw that the enemy's two warships were shot, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The reason for the high hit rate of the artillery of the Changxing Army is inseparable from their guns.

For a normally cast gun, it is only necessary to remove the burrs from the breech and polish it smooth. After the cannon of the Changxing Army is cast, the gun chamber must be cut into a single piece with a knife, not only the caliber of the gun chamber is exactly the same, but even the inner wall is straight.

This allows the shells cast by the Changxing Army to be just put into the breech, and the shells emitted are more stable. Although it is not as good as rifled guns, it is much more accurate than ordinary guns.

The use of the fixed charge package also made the gunner's charge almost identical each time, which provided a guarantee for the accuracy of the gun.

In addition, the Changxing Army has always insisted on live-fire training, and in recent years, there have been only a few scrapped artillery pieces. The hard work of the artillery and the excellent craftsmanship have created the myth of the accuracy of the artillery of the Changxing Army.

Rodriguez regretted it a little, and he realized that his opponent didn't seem to be as weak as he thought. The tactics I developed were a bit too simple, and it was too late to change the formation. I can only rush forward, hoping to drive away these people!

Zheng Yiguan has been estimating the distance of the Gan Wax people, and the enemy fleet is approaching to two miles. Immediately ordered: "The whole team to the left, the battle line straight into the right flank of the Dry Wax Man!" ”

The herald waved his flag at this moment, and the fleet immediately moved when it saw the flagship's flag. The sails were unfurled, and the huge battleship slowly set sail.

Looking at the moving enemy ships, Rodriguez's heart became cold. There was still a little hope that became slim, and he could see at a glance that the other party's sailors were well-trained and not rookies at all.

Finished! The fleet is coming to an end, and Chicken Coop Bay is in danger! This is the voice of Rodriguez.

The battleship is inferior to the enemy, the naval guns are inferior to the enemy, and now even the enemy is not much worse than his own side in operating the sailboat, and Rodriguez really can't think of the possibility that he still has the possibility of turning the tables.

Zheng Yiguan didn't care what Rodriguez wanted, and his flagship was the first to penetrate the left flank of the enemy line.

When the Orca battleship and the Ceuta intersected, the distance between the two sides was less than a mile. Zheng Yiguan stared at the enemy ship and raised his hand high.

"Fire!" As soon as his order was spoken, a continuous "fire" sounded from the killer whale battleship. As the command was repeated, a cannon roared, spewing out scorching flames.

At the same time, the Ceuta also gave the command to open fire, and the two battleships opened fire at close range at the same time.

It's a hard-fought contest, and no one has any room for tricks. It was a complete confrontation of blood and fire, and only the victorious side could remain at sea.

Zheng Yiguan stood on the deck without moving, staring intently at the close Ceuta. A cannonball hit the sailor beside him, and the man was instantly smashed into pieces of flesh, and blood splattered on Zheng Yiguan's body.

"Big brother! It's too dangerous here, so it's safe to go below! Zheng Zhibao and two of his own soldiers held iron shields to resist the flying wood chips, and listened to the whistling cannonballs, he was very worried about his brother's safety.

Zheng Yiguan shook his head and said angrily: "I'm not going anywhere!" My brothers are fighting bloodily, how can I hide? ”

His voice lifted the spirits of the busy sailors, who steered the sailboat despite the flying shells.

When the two ships made a mistake, two large holes were cut out of the side of the Tiger Commander's battleship, and the planks of the other places were damaged.

A large hole was located in the upper artillery deck, and a 24-pounder gun was destroyed. Several members of the artillery crew were killed on the spot, and one was left unconscious.

Another large hole is three feet above the waterline, and it is already very dangerous. If it were any lower, the Orca would be in danger of becoming silent.

Even this large wave would have flooded into the cabin, and the lower deck had leaked in many places because of the large hole. The sailors are doing their best to plug the leak and pump the water, trying to restore the ship in a short time.

Zheng Yiguan secretly said that it was dangerous, and the dry silk people were not at a loss and they were a naval power that had been on the sea for a hundred years. Just now, he had the advantage and was almost overturned by the other party, so he must be more careful when dealing with Xiyi people, and he can't be careless at all.

The Ceuta is much worse than Zheng Yiguan's flagship, and now it can only float at sea without sinking.

The planks on one side of the ship were all broken, and there were four holes in three or four feet alone. It was almost all over the side side, but fortunately it was all hit on the upper deck, and if it was close to the waterline, the ship would have sunk.

The devastation of the mighty 48-pounder cannons was unmatched, shattering not only the ship's planks, but also the gunners in the cabins being swept away by flying wood chips.

There was not a single dry silk man on the Ceuta's gun deck who could stand up, and those who survived lay on the ground moaning. Blood had stained the deck red, and stumps and severed arms were everywhere.

The top deck was not much better, and his three thick mainmasts had broken off and fell diagonally into the sea.

The chain bomb Changxing Army achieved good results in the first use, and an iron chain more than a foot long in the middle of the two halves of the iron ball swept across the top deck of the Ceuta like a gust of wind.

Anything that stood in his way would be cut off, and the sailors, the cables, the saillocks, the masts, ...... would be cut off if they were hit.

Zheng Yiguan looked at the Ceuta with satisfaction, turned his head and ordered: "Zhi Leopard! Go to the bottom warehouse and plug the hole, otherwise we won't continue to fight! ”
