"Anchor! Lao Sai, tell them to open their mouths and don't cover their ears......! "The emperor of the East is going to war, and those Persian dancers are also allowed to come to the deck to watch the excitement, and Said is holding a telescope and standing beside Hong Tao very professionally, intending to see what this emperor is capable of and can become the king of the sea.

The naval guns equipped on the "Tom ......" Sea King are newer than those of the Jinhe, although they are all 155 mm caliber, but the double diameter is longer, the charge is larger, and the power and accuracy are also improved. Piggybacking, its sound and recoil are even greater, and the sound of one cannon firing is more shocking than the original salvo of three guns, and you can feel the power coming from your feet when you stand on the deck.

"Ah...... Yikes...... Wow......" As soon as the cannon sounded, there were all kinds of warblers behind Hong Tao, and several Persian dancers either covered their ears and were terrified, or they were sitting on the deck with pear blossoms and rain, and none of them were embarrassed.

"Take them back, and look through the window if you want...... Mercy, you continue. Faced with such a scene, Hong Tao was a little embarrassed. All the sailors and officers of the ship were attracted by these dancing girls, where is this war, not a parade of floats.

"Second shot, put!" Although the Sea King's naval guns hit farther and more accurately, there is still a big gap between where it is pointed, and if you want to hit a target a kilometer away, you have to test fire it several times to determine that the trajectory is generally reliable.

"Tom......" The second shell went out again.

"Your Majesty, it's hit! Hit! I see it! "Said only hit the Sultan's palace against Hong Tao. The practice of not attacking civilian residential areas is satisfactory. In his opinion, the best way is to let the king of the Sultan and Hong Tao face each other, so as not to hurt the innocent. Of course. Even if the king of the Sultan is willing to Hong Tao, he will not be happy, even if the other party is an old man who will fall down one by one, he will not take this risk, the problem that can be solved with cannons, why let himself do it himself?

"Shoot sequentially, prepare, put!" Mercy ignored Said. He received a report of observation from the lookout before giving the official order to attack.

In an instant, the Sea King turned into a fire-breathing dragon. Even though it was daytime, tongues of fire could be seen coming out of the muzzles of the guns several meters long, followed by a puff of gray-white smoke. After the heavy artillery on the lower deck finished firing, the 135 naval guns on the upper deck began to speak again. The whole battleship is like a demon coming out of the space-time portal. His whole body was shrouded in smoke, and his mouth was still spewing fire.

And there is not one demon who came this time, there are many small demons beside the big demon, and when the Sea King finished shooting, the petite Seawolf class also began to shoot. Their guns were small in caliber and less powerful, but they fired in a salvo, louder than the movement of the Sea King. The earthquake caused the sea to ripple, and the slag of the not very sturdy earthen houses on the pier fell straight down.

"Prepare for the second round of shelling......" Compassion enjoys the feeling of firing all kinds of artillery. I don't think it's enough to do it once, and I'm going to do it a second time soon.

"Your Majesty...... The roof is gone...... "Said's old face was pale, he had heard of the power of artillery, but hearing about it and seeing it with his own eyes were completely two different feelings, and seeing it with his own eyes and standing on the deck were two different feelings. If it weren't for Hong Tao supporting him, he would have sat on the deck, although he knew in his heart that this was not a miracle, but his legs still involuntarily weakened, wanting to kneel for this kind of thing that did not belong to human beings.

"Stop shooting! Wait and see how they react...... What are you pouting? Cannonballs don't want money, do they? Bastard thing! "The two-story palace had received at least ten or more shells, and was shrouded in a layer of yellow dust, and it was impossible to see the effect of the shots. Hong Tao thinks that one round of shooting should be almost enough, you have to give the other party a time to react. As for whether Mercy is willing or not, it is not up to him, he, the commander of the fleet, is actually just an ornament, with the emperor here, it is not his turn to command.

Before the smoke on the deck cleared, Hong Tao heard a buzz from the shore, the prayers of the crowd, and everyone did not dare to come out and face the devil, but could only kneel in the courtyard and in the street and pray to their gods, hoping that the devil would not find him. Not only the inhabitants, but also the armies, religion is a double-edged sword, both to forget some of the fears and to make people more suspicious.

"Your Majesty, I've been waiting for half an hour and haven't moved, do you want to come again?" There was no resistance, there was no one on the side of the trebuchet, but there was no one who surrendered, and after waiting for a long time, I didn't see anyone raising a white flag or anything, and Compassion began to gear up again.

"Then do it again, I don't believe that I can't blow up people!" Hong Tao is a little angry, isn't this hitting himself in the face in front of his subordinates, if he dares to hit himself in the face, then return it with a big iron ball.

After more than half an hour, the naval guns of the Sea King began to roar again, this time with more accurate shots, Hong Tao saw with his own eyes that a tower in the palace was hit by a cannonball, and then broke off from half of his waist, smashing up a large cloud of dust.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty...... It's Alin, on the docks! Said was quick to adapt and was able to stand on the side of the boat on his own during the second round of shooting, and touch the dock with his binoculars. He was more anxious than Hong Tao, as long as no one came out to surrender, the shelling would not stop, and there would be no fewer accidental injuries, and many houses near the palace had already been affected.

"Stop shooting! Send someone up and take a look. Hong Tao reminded Said, and he also saw a few people on the dock dancing with their hands on the side of the battleship, and the leader was Al Yin.

"I'll go, I'll go up and tell them, let them surrender!" Said had finally found a chance to go ashore, and he couldn't bear the flood to ravage the city with cannons, and every time he knocked down a building, it made his heart ache.

Said went ashore, and did not say anything to the men of Alin, but trotted all the way to every street entrance, shouting something, and then many soldiers came out of the street, came to the dock, threw all the weapons in their hands, and obediently stood aside and waited for death. He himself found a camel that had not been frightened away, and galloped all the way to the palace that was still smoking.

The Sultan is dead! He was hit directly by a shell in the first round of shelling, and died on the roof along with his two younger brothers. The remaining ministers, generals, and tribal elders in the palace had long since fled with their own men, leaving only a large number of old men, women, and children huddled in the room and shivering. No wonder no one came out to surrender or fight, they were all stupid, thinking that the end of humanity was coming and they were preparing to accept the punishment of Allah.

With the coordination of Saeed and the Ayin family, the residents of Muska Harbor did not flee in large numbers, and were soon organized to go to the palace to clean up the ruins along with the hundreds of soldiers who had surrendered. At this time, the Ceylon army brought by Bojiao began to land, and they occupied several important junctions and commanding heights in the city in units of 100 people. Then the marines marched into the city and blocked all the roads leading to the palace. Because Emperor Hong was going to the palace to show off his majesty, and to meet the representatives of the big families in the city of Masca here, who would succeed him as sultan would make the final decision.

"Tell our people not to enter the mosque, not to enter the homes of the people, and not to harass the women here. You personally take someone to be a gendarme, and whoever dares to disobey my orders will be shot on the spot, and there is no need to ask me, the marines and Ceylonese soldiers will be treated equally. On the boat, Hong Tao saw that some Ceylonese soldiers began to rob the camels and horses in the streets, and these soldiers were not trained by themselves, and they were probably not trained by Bojiao, but it was probably their habit to plunder in the conquered cities.

But now that they are under their own command, this habit must be changed. Their own army can kill the Sultan and officials, or even kill the Sultan's family, and the locals will not have much opinion. But if your army seriously violates the religious customs here, they will see them as mortal enemies, although they dare not resist now, they will stab you in the back if you have the opportunity. In this respect, our party's ethnic policy is very useful, and it is very appropriate to use it for all purposes.
