Chapter 652: Flawed Assault (Page 1/1)

The battleship that had once again faced the Boom Horse was the last one, and he ran to the bow of the ship to observe the enemy, despite the advice of the first mate. Listening to the rumbling cannonball, Ma Le, who was preparing to attack, trembled all over.

This feeling of excitement was something he had never felt when he was first mate, and a smile appeared on his face as he watched his companions who constantly hit enemy ships.

Suddenly, his face froze, and one of his ships was also swept into the mast by the opponent's chain bullet. The moment the tall mast fell, his heart fluttered.

Ma Le clenched his fists involuntarily, and he couldn't help but worry about the battleship. Breaking a mainmast, the speed of the ship slowed down instantly, and it also attracted the artillery fire of the enemy ships to its body.

Seeing that the side of the battleship was hit one after another, Ma Le punched the side of the ship hard. Seeing that his own warships were bypassing the rear of this battleship, Ma Le ordered with a calm face: "Bypass in front of the thirty-seventh battleship, let's block a few times for our brothers!" ”

Battleships that lose power in naval battles are generally abandoned existences, and they can only blame themselves for their bad luck when they are hit by the enemy, and no one can complain.

Such warships all choose to save themselves, quickly evacuate the battlefield and make simple repairs. Rescuing a ship that has lost power in a naval battle is tantamount to dying in battle.

But no one on board the Marle raised any objections, and they silently carried out the captain's orders. Everyone moved quickly, and when the battleship was about to pass by the battleship, they suddenly circled to the front of the battleship.

His sudden move stunned everyone on the battlefield, and then Ma Le opened fire without hesitation. The hot shells came out of their chambers and hit the coalition forces as they prepared to shoot.

As Malak passed by the side of the damaged battleship, the battleship was hit by two shells, one gun was destroyed, and the crew suffered five casualties.

With Ma Le's cover, the battleship adjusted its direction and moved its clumsy body to flee outside the battlefield. Although the enemy ships continued to shell him, most of them had already failed.

Except for one shell that hit the stern, the rest missed. The battleship quickly sailed into the Changxing Army array, and someone would carry out simple repairs to the battleship.

Seeing the successful withdrawal of their own warships from the battlefield, the Changxing Navy cheered neatly. After several rounds of testing, the coalition forces began to devote their main forces to prepare for a decisive battle with the Changxing army.

They found that the warships of the Changxing Army were all very strong, and unless they were bombarded with heavy artillery or fired at them, they did not want to inflict great damage on their warships.

The artillery skills that the European coalition were proud of were not much better than those of the Changxing Army, and in some places they were slightly inferior. As a result of this confrontation, three coalition warships were sunk and two were wounded and evacuated from the battle.

None of the Changxing troops sank, but as many as six withdrew from the battle due to injuries. The mutual probing of the two sides took advantage of the Changxing army, but it did not play a decisive role.

After the temptation, there was a real confrontation between the two sides, and the coalition forces seemed to have dispatched most of their navy to press on the Changxing army. And the Changxing army also fought fiercely with the coalition forces under the leadership of Zheng Zhilong.

The two sides opened fire fiercely from a distance of more than a mile, and the smoke of gunpowder rose in the vast sea, and the sound of artillery rumbled. There was a mixture of screams, but they were quickly drowned out by the sound of cannons.

The two sides engaged in large-scale battles, and the battle lines, which were originally clearly distinguished, became less and less obvious. Many times the battleships were called together to catch and fight, and from time to time there was the sound of wooden planks breaking, followed by the exclamation of sailors before they jumped into the sea.

At this time, the battle entered into the white-heat, and the battleships of both sides had already killed the real fire with bayonets. Although the two sides fought to a draw in the area of fire, nearly half of the ships of the Changxing army did not move.

Compared with the number of remaining warships of the coalition forces, there is no doubt that the Changxing army has an advantage in the situation. Now it's time for the two sides to compete in patience, and whoever can hold on will come out victorious.

Although the coalition warships were somewhat more numerous, a significant number of them were armed merchant ships. And the Changxing army fought with warships, and the advantages of the Changxing army became more obvious after a long time.

On Zheng Zhilong's ship, Zheng Zhibao held an iron shield in front of his eldest brother. His breath was short, and his eyes almost burst into flames.

He couldn't help but glance back at the big brother with a serious face, and couldn't help but speak: "Big brother! Let Zhang Huan's kid raid! Wait, our fleet will run out! ”

Zheng Zhilong glared at his brother and reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense!" The fleet belongs to the Changxing Army, it is a big handsome, and it has nothing to do with you and me, you know? ”

Zheng Zhibao was so frightened that he shrank his neck, and said sneeringly: "Big brother! The younger brother didn't mean that, but he was a little anxious when he saw that the brothers were fighting hard. It stands to reason that Zhang Huan's kid should also be assaulted, he doesn't want to sit back and watch our Southern Fleet fight to take sole control of the navy! ”

"Now is the time to attack, you have to say more! Besides, Zhang Huan is the commander of the Northern Fleet, and he is at the same level as his brother, so you don't always scream one child at a time! Zheng Zhilong continued to reprimand his younger brother.

His younger brother is good at everything, but the reckless aura on his body is too strong. In Changxingjun for several years, he has not changed these problems, if he hadn't been reused by the handsome Zhang Dou, his younger brother would definitely suffer.

At this moment, Zhang Huan was using a clairvoyant mirror to observe the battle situation ahead, but the focus of his observation was the last fleet of the coalition forces that had not moved.

Although your side has a certain advantage, the battle damage is also not small. By now eight battleships have been sunk, and more than a dozen have been damaged and removed from the battle.

Should it be time to strike? But will there be any conspiracy on those coalition warships that have not moved? While he was hesitating, the Changxing warship unleashed its power and hit the ship of Kapivari, the flagship of the Netherlands.

Kapivari, who has been holding on, finally can't hold on, and if he continues to fight, the last force of the Netherlands in East Asia will be fought here.

He immediately ordered a U-turn and an evacuation of the battlefield, which set off a chain reaction that saw the rest of the Dutch ships retreat with him. They hung the Dried Silk Battleship in the battle area, and for a time all the firepower of the Changxing Army hit the Dry Wax Silk Battleship.

Flores was so angry with the Dutch that he jumped to his feet and scolded him on the ship, but he couldn't change the fact that the battleship was under all the fire of the Changxing army.

The retreat of the Dutch made a hole in the entire front, and Zhang Huan no longer hesitated when he saw this. Immediately ordered the whole army to assault, and the nineteen Moby Dick battleships plunged straight into the array of the coalition forces like a sharp knife.

Seeing that Zhang Huan moved, Zheng Zhilong also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Zhang Huan seizes this opportunity and goes straight into the enemy's formation, today's battle will definitely be another big victory.

Weddell, who had been watching the battle, saw that the reserves of the Changxing Army had moved, and immediately shouted happily: "Finally moved!" Let the Francophile lead the fireship to the top, and let those Orientals move.

Lads! Let the Orientals see the power of the English Navy! Let them know who is the master of the sea! ”
