Section 867 The cannon fires his mother

The attacks of black powder solid bullets are actually not realistic, their destructive power is not large, and the result is a scary effect, but it is difficult to sink a ship!

Just now, the Tang army opened artillery and beat the big cannibals, and the cannon sound was small, and the explosion was lively, but the boat was still floating on the water. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The solid bullet is a big iron pellet, and the power depends on the collision, and it is just a hole when it hits the ship, and it doesn't directly hit the person, so it's basically fine.

Those that smashed the walls of the ship and bounced off the debris could be easily defended with a shield.

Just like using a catapult to siege a city, it is rare to use a catapult to smash the city directly.

The artillery of that period was also not very powerful, and the projectile attack could not penetrate the hull of the ship if it was far away, such as Wei Xi, Shi Wanchao and other strange men could even hard P artillery!

But the big cannibals didn't know, they were frightened by the power of the artillery, and they only saw smoke and fire, and the cannonballs were raining down, and they thought that the ship was so big, it was useless to hide anywhere, and the early firing shells were so light that they panicked.

Run!

Jumping into the water with a scramble, the battle was lost.

The president of the Great Cannibal Fleet, Monzil, finally came to his senses, but unfortunately it was too late.

The ships of the Don fleet with hooks and small bridges came over, and the marines boarded his boat, and someone shouted loudly in the big food language: "Dozens of sounds, come out and surrender, if you don't come out, burn the ship!" One! ”

The Tang people didn't have time to go down to the cabin to clean up, which was dangerous and a waste of time, so they used the most direct and simple method.

There were several people, and the big cannibals came out of the cabin one after another, smelling a strong pungent smell, and they saw that the Tang people were busy pouring oil, talking and counting.

Those who came out were ordered to lay down their weapons and hold their heads in their hands, including Monzil!

He is also broken, since his subordinates can't escape from him, then he doesn't need to do his best for them.

It's hateful, knowing the secret of the Tang people's weapons, if his subordinates had just followed the order and blocked the Tang boat's pursuers, he would probably escape, and then think of a safe way to deal with the Tang boat.

Don't think about anything now, be a prisoner honestly!

In fact, he still had some ideas, but when he saw that the Tang people were vigilantly holding swords and bows, and someone was holding torches (ready to set fire), he had nothing to do.

His appearance attracted the attention of the Tang army, without it, dressed like a peacock, the others were iron armor, he was gold armor, after a little interrogation, knowing that he was the great commander Monzier, he was immediately overjoyed, and immediately sent him to the Tang ship.

When he and the captives' ship sailed away from the big ship, they saw flames rising from the big ship, and the Tang people did what they said and really set the ship on fire.

……

Liu Qifeng, the commander of the Lianghe Water Division, held the spirit of "it is advisable to chase after the poor and the poor", chased the dead north all the way, and bombarded the cannibals wildly, giving full play to the suddenness of the cannon's first appearance.

The cannon roared, the big cannibal was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, and few people who could think clearly, even if they did, they also suffered to their teammates and subordinates.

One of the boats seemed to understand the power of the Don ship's guns, and immediately strengthened the hull protection, and they attached various supplies to the wall of the ship, but they slowed down a little, causing the Tang ship's guns to attack, while his teammates drove their own boats to escape, even if the ship called for it.

More than 60 ships were entangled and destroyed by Tang ships on the way (in fact, they were all burned after the marines boarded the ships), and more than 30 ships ran away and disappeared.

More than fifty boats fled into the water village.

The conditions of their water village are good, and next to the water village is a small city called "Haifa City", which is responsible for giving all kinds of support to the water village. The surface of the water is in the shape of an inverted bowl, and on the surface of the bowl is a small island called Jerra Island, and there is only one channel to enter and exit.

The big cannibal pulled up heavy iron chains to block the waterway, and it was like an iron lock blocking the river.

On the flagship of the Tang people, the two commanders met, and Monzier met with Liu Qifeng and drew a defense map of the trebuchet's position for him of the Great Food Army's choke channel!

The Great Cannibals placed more than a dozen heavy catapults on the islands and shores on both sides of the channel, aiming at the channel and throwing stones out as soon as enemy ships invaded.

Monzir said that there are basically no underwater obstacles in the waterway, except for some reefs under the water on the edge of the island, but you can avoid them by paying attention.

There are also big cannibals who put chains

He happily told him that Liu Qifeng's words made him slightly cold: "Yes, it is consistent with our intelligence!" ”

Liu Qifeng took out a map and showed it to Monzier, making him dumbfounded.

The location of the trebuchet positions and the underwater reef on the map is exactly the same as Montzil's description!

……

The Tang ships arrived one after another, with a total of 20 gunboats and 10 hooked boats, Liu Qifeng thought that the army was enough to launch an attack, so he ordered Liu Hui, the captain of Zhiguo, to lead 500 marines to seize the trebuchet base of the big cannibal on the small island outside the channel.

The big cannibals were stationed there with thousands of people to defend, which seemed to be quite a lot, but they were in chaos after being shelled by Tang ships!

What they saw was that the Tang boats came forward and shelled one after another, and each boat was spewing fire and smoke like demons and monsters, and then one after another black projectiles came at them, beyond their imagination, they could not understand what it was, and what could hurt them!

The Tang gunners raised the elevation angle of the artillery and hit the cannonballs on the position of the big cannibals, causing casualties to the big cannibals... There weren't many, and even the trebuchets didn't cause many casualties, but the morale of the Great Cannibal army was completely disrupted.

When the Tang troops came up, it was really effortless, and the big cannibals scattered and fled.

The shock of artillery after its appearance was fully revealed, and its lethality and damage were far less than the intimidation of the enemy.

They easily captured the trebuchets of the big cannibals on the island, but unfortunately most of them were useless, they were fixed, and their orientation could not be changed, so they could not be used to attack the ships of the big cannibals moored in the harbor, so they had to be burned.

Seeing the fire on the island, the boats of the big food boat were all colorful.

There were two or three trebuchets that were undecided, and the Tang people diverted them and smashed them into the harbor!

The firepower was too weak, and the damage caused was insignificant, but the big cannibal's heart was completely confused.

Liu Qifeng sent an envoy from the Tang Army to recruit them with a personal soldier of Monzier, and the officers of Dashi met with them.

The soldier told Monzir about the situation: "...... The Grand Commander was caught up by the Don ships, surrounded, and had already surrendered to the Don! ”

"The Tang people treat prisoners preferentially, and those who surrender do not kill or plunder their property, but also give them food and clothing, and treat those who are wounded!" When the soldiers said so, the heart of the great cannibal was at ease.

The Tang Army's envoy spoke to them and said, "You fought very bravely, but our weapons came from the heavenly immortals, and you can't beat us!" ”

It immediately resonated with everyone, and they all nodded yes.

"As long as you surrender, we are not guilty of the past, you have to save your lives, as for the future, if you are not willing to join our army, we will pay you the passage fee and return to your hometown for the people. Those who are willing to join our army are my fellow brothers, and we will fight together for the prince, who is a man of the gods in the sky, he is invincible and invincible! The military envoy was fanatical and authentic, boasting of Wei Xi's outstanding military exploits.

He also threatened: "If you don't comply, our weapons will be powerful, and we will sink you all with one shot!" ”

"You have time to reply before sunrise tomorrow, otherwise we will attack immediately, and when the time comes, it will be too late to destroy!"

The officers looked at each other, and after discussing for an hour, they found the military envoy and said, "We are willing to submit!" ”

……

The news of the victory over the main force of the Great Water Eater Division was that two steamboats (for fear that one of them would break down halfway) were specially sent back to the riverside of the Tigritge River, and they immediately rode the relay and reported to Wei Xi.

Wei Xi was overjoyed and wrote: "The cannon bombarded his mother, Weijia returned to his hometown, counted the heroes Liu Qifeng, and the giant whale swallowed Rome!" ”
