The white clouds blow away for the wind, revealing the green and verdant peaks, the junction of the sea and seamounts, the coast meanders, all over the various fjords, some are eerie, some are bright and tranquil, some are thousands of turns, some are high in the wind and waves, and some are unfathomable. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe deep ochre-colored Ryu Island in front of it is adjacent to the fjord, and the rain stream paints an indescribable clear emerald green in between, like pieces of agate and emeralds, and the wind and waves are gentle, and the wind and sky are as high as the nearby Fengliu Strait, and the whirlpool air flow is completely different everywhere. A slight breeze swept over the water surface of the adjacent fjord, like a girl's long eyelashes trembling in the sun, beautiful and breathtaking.

However, at this time, no one had the heart to sigh at this poetic beauty, because not far away the sea and sky were already visible, three turtle-like turtles, with thorn-like dense knife cones protruding all over their bodies, and the bow of the ship was constantly spewing out poisonous gases such as sulfur and flame nitrate, and the sails and masts on the ship were already on fire, and the scene of the Luo Wei sail artillery warship following behind them had firmly attracted the attention of the officers and men on the Xinming ship. "Stay vigilant, watch the sentry report the direction and distance, the sailman tests the wind direction and prepares to raise the sails, the helmsman adjusts his post to prepare for steering, and we go to support!" After taking a closer look at the situation, I immediately said loudly. casually went back to the hatch and pulled down a piece of armor, and handed another one to Sheng Zheng.

Sheng Zheng ordered the herald to go to the herald, ordered the flag to be raised, and coordinated the Xinming ship behind him, and at the same time put on the armor. Then, he bowed down to me and whispered in my ear, "That turtle ship has no flag, and it seems that it can't understand or see the flag of our army, and its shape is more like a sealed sail artillery warship, rather than the latent secret sentry 'turtle' from my Beiming. ”

"I can't be sure, but there is an eighty percent chance that this is a turtle boat from Jeju," I turned my face to look at Sheng Zheng's calm dark eyes, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I like to read miscellaneous books, when I was in Shami Island, I read a book written by Jeju native Li Fang, which describes the Jeju turtle boat is very similar to this, its length is generally between thirteen zhang and nineteen zhang, the bottom structure is like a board house, and the shape of a plate house warship has a layer of ironclad hull, which is covered with hexagonal black iron armor plates, and the armor pieces have iron vertebrae protruding, and the turtle boat is equipped with ten oars and eleven muzzles on both sides, The release of sulfur and nitrate gas at the bow of the ship is used to disrupt the battle formation of the enemy's naval division, and there are gun muzzles in **** and Gumi, which can be equipped with heavy guns. As far as I know, Jeju is a vassal state of Sinviet, and because of its geographical proximity to the main state of Nawa, it has been attacking Nawa all year round. ”

Who knew that when it came to this, Sheng Zheng, who had always been gentle and polite, immediately scolded his mother, and when he saw my look, he said abruptly, "This is the South Seas, which belongs to the boundary of the Beiming Naval Division, and there are Jeju warships and Luo Wei warships fighting here, which is simply unorthodox, where will I put my Beiming Naval Division?" And the Jeju turtle boat, if it is a blind boat, although it has the power to fight back, but it is not a ship suitable for long-distance sailing at all, this time it is thousands of miles away from its homeland, and it does not inform my Beiming Sailor, what is the intention? ”

I saw him like this, and I also understood that although the time was urgent, but when I saw that it was still time to get close to the battle, I lowered my face and said, "Sheng Zheng, let me ask you, Luo Wei and I are friends or enemies?" ”

"Then you need to ask? The two armies are fighting, and you are living to the death. Sheng Zheng's thin lips twitched up and down.

"Then let me ask you, is Jeju and me friend or foe?" I asked again.

"This-" Sheng Zheng hesitated slightly, and Fang said, "Jeju is a vassal state of the Xinyue domain, and Xinyue and I are friendly forces at this time, however, they are friendly forces, and if they come to fight in our waters, they should also inform me of the Beiming Naval Division, right?" Moreover, this Jeju sailor only has some strength, and he dared to drive a blind ship to the South China Sea thousands of miles away to fight with Luo Wei, which is quite strange. In addition, I waited for this time because General Feng gave an explanation of the surprise attack on the adjacent bay of Ryukyu Island and received General Ji, presumably General Feng's main force has other coordinated arrangements. ”

I smiled bitterly, looking at the Jeju turtle boat and the Luo Wei warship that were getting closer and closer in front of me, the sound of artillery fire on both sides had gradually become clear, and a firelight flashed from the guns of both sides, with dense black smoke and yellow-green fog, which reverberated horribly in the blue waves of the sea, and those turtle boats were surrounded like turtles in an urn, which was very tragic. I saw that although Sheng Zheng questioned whether my assistance to the war was in line with the task we undertook, he still asked me while assisting me in executing the general's order close to the battlefield, and I felt sorry in my heart, so I couldn't help but untie the cuffs and take out General Ji Xisheng's letter, handed it to Sheng Zheng and said, "Look at this letter, I have been thinking about it for a long time, the handwriting is General Ji Xisheng's, but when you look at it, it is not as square as General Ji Xisheng's handwriting on weekdays, and there are some **** that are slightly imperceptible, and you read the words on the left bevel again, It is known that when General Ji Xisheng wrote this letter, he must have been unable to help himself. ”

Sheng Zheng took the letterhead in surprise and read it word by word, "-Don't-Enter-Ryu-Island-West——," Seeing that his expression was already confused, and the battlefield was approaching us, I hurriedly said, "I estimate that this turtle boat is coming, most of it is also related to the similar letterhead of some of its important generals, I am afraid that it is not the same as writing a letter to come to answer for Luo Wei's coercion, and later aid was surrounded, anyway, Luo Wei is the enemy, and Jeju can at least be a comrade-in-arms for the time being, and it is better to ask what is going on, At that time, I will ask him why he came to my sea area but dared not to discuss the matter with my Beiming Naval Division, at this time, you see that the three turtle ships are surrounded by six or seven sail artillery warships of Luo Wei at the end of the crossbow, and they are in danger, why should we hesitate? ”

Seeing that he sighed and shook my hand again, I knew in my heart that he already agreed, so I said politely, "Do you think we should fight which ship first to break this game?" ”

Sheng Zheng moved his ears slightly, every time he thought about it, there was always this small action, if it was usual, I would always have to laugh, but at this moment, it was a big deal, only looked at him, and when he said his opinion, seeing him pause slightly, he said, "In terms of turtle ship combat, the original Xia Feng Strait Luliang Bay is the most suitable, but at this moment, I can't take care of so much, you see the two Luo Wei sail artillery warships in the southwest, at this time, according to my range, the fastest range of our guns on the Xinming ship can reach 5,000 feet, However, the firing distance of the heavy guns of Luo Wei's sail artillery warships was only 2,500 feet at most, so it was better to order the sails to shoot the guns immediately and keep the distance between 3,000 and 4,000 feet, and with the current battle situation, the advantage was on our side. ”

I couldn't help but look approvingly, nodded, and Sheng Zheng went to give the order, "Half sail against the wind, the helmsman pays attention to the speed, keeps the distance, pays attention to keeping 3,000 to 4,000 feet away from the target, repeats, pays attention to keeping 3,000 to 4,000 feet away from the target." Then he made some eye calculations next to the level and compass again, and said loudly, "Southwest direction, five quarters, starboard gunner preparation, target, five quarters southwest direction, two Luo Wei sail warships, rapid-fire preparation-"

I saw that the first row of gunners quickly adjusted the direction, and then, the second row of gunners in front of the yellow powder and incendiary materials were instantly filled into the barrel of the cannon only to hear the sound of clicking, and took advantage of the situation to pull out the safety bolt of chain bullets and poison bullets, and then the third row of gunners stepped forward to do the final calibration, Sheng Zheng read it, and shouted "The first round, each cannon fifteen rapid fire, the longest range, put-" The herald immediately played a flag to inform a new ship behind, and the lit fuse sent a poisonous snake version of the fire letter, and it was fired in unison in an instant, The artillery fire fell on the Luo Wei warship as densely as raindrops in a sunny attitude, and a wave of high waves pierced through the chamber and exploded, and one of the Luo Wei sail artillery warships appeared in the same situation as the Xinming ship that Prince Li was riding at that time, the air waves were noisy, the fire was raging, and the subsequent explosions were endless, and at a distance of 3,000 feet, you could still see the scene of the shrapnel falling in all directions and the stumps falling into the sea in all directions.

The rest of the Luo Wei warships that were busy besieging the Jeju turtle ships were immediately shaken by the roar of the blasting, and after a while, the remaining four Luo Wei sail and artillery warships put on a new battle formation and sailed straight towards our two new ships, but Sheng Zheng ordered by himself, "Turn the rudder for four moments, turn the sail for three minutes, gunner, correction, target, due west, repeat, due west, Luo Wei flagship and the four wild goose warships behind him, port side, 20 rapid shots of each gun, adjust the firing range, correct-prepare-put-"

The sea breeze and the flesh and blood, the moisture mist and the smoke of gunpowder together with the artillery fire of both sides filled the sky, the Luo Wei warship raised its full sails, in order to avoid being shot, moved forward at the fastest speed, the firing range could not be adjusted, a number of artillery fire fell into the two wings and rear of the Luo Wei warship, stirring up a burst of noisy waves, as if covering and giving the Luo Wei warship a chance to breathe, soon, the distance of three thousand feet was broken through, Sheng Zheng ordered to constantly adjust the firing range, and the gunners on the Luo Wei warship had already put on a three-stage cannon attack on the enemy, Calibration of the two Xinming vessels began.

I looked at the broken sails of the turtle ship that had been burned by fire and wind, and the fire and blood on the surface of the sea seeped in between the jasper-like colors, and then surged away, and the breath of blood and gunpowder struck my mind, and the secret hatred of infinite anger surged in my heart, so I said again, "Repeater ready, fire crossbow ready, target, due west to the mast and sail of all the Ro Wai sail warships." Repeat, the mast and sail of all the warships. Ignite the fire, and the repeater shot is ready for ,——"

The herald standing on his side went to the herald, and the two ships of two hundred crossbowmen and two hundred crossbowmen had already prepared their crossbows in a short time, and the huge crossbows were suitable, "Thirteen rounds of crossbows, put-" For a while, thousands of people fired in unison, straight towards the enemy ship, and the fire crossbow with a raging flame went straight to the sail mast of the enemy ship, and whoever was in the middle of the fire immediately continued to burn, such as the flames of the Luo Wei warship that was galloping outside the cannon fire, and in an instant, the speed of the Luo Wei warship dropped, and the fierce flames hung on the mast like a stream, The roaring flames spread to the sails, and the soldiers on the full-sail Luo Wei sail artillery warship went to extinguish the fire one after another, and the flames wrapped in fire oil and incendiary materials spread to the soldiers who went forward like vines, and burned into a piece for a while, the fire line was stirring on the sails and masts, and the wind helped the fire, and the more and more intense, and there was no shell of the turtle ship, but it was not extinguished on the deck of the Luo Wei warship with burning sails, and the panic and regrouping situation that could not be extinguished was more than that of the turtle ship that was besieged by them just now. The cannon fire from the Xinming ship constantly adjusted its range and roared, while the turtle ship that was respited behind it quickly adjusted, and the two Luo Wei sail artillery warships that were injured by the Xinming ship were smashed into a sieve and immediately sank in the purgatory of fire.

Even so, the Luo Wei warships still relied on the helmsman, trying to break through, they adjusted the angle, re-fired the cannon, and even led to the bow and arrow, although the range was limited, the cannon fire did not hit much, and the bow and arrow were not crossbows, and it was completely difficult to achieve the desire to shoot the sails of the Xinming ship. Their unyielding and infinite heroes appear incomparably powerless and miserable. In the thunderous shooting and raining artillery fire, the bridge of the Luowei flagship caught fire, and when he looked up, a Luowei warrior in front of him who fell on the deck to help the soldiers was stumped, his arms and abdomen were hit by the fragments of the cannonball, he clutched his stomach, and finally limped to his feet, however, all around him were whistling firebolts, crossbow arrows and huge cannons hitting the huge waves of air that the warship had turned up, and they shot out from the bottom of the ship, from the side of the ship, from the sky, and shot the medical officer who was trying to help him on his side into a stump, and his eyes were full of pain and hatred. The soldiers around him fell to the ground one by one and died, he had nowhere to hide, and he didn't bother to hide, and after a while, he was hit by a few fire crossbows, but he actually got up again, staggered forward, and knelt down without taking two steps, staring at the cloudless bright sunlight with godless pupils, and never moved again in the direction of his home country. However, his death could not stop the cannon fire of the Xinming ship in front of him and the turtle ship behind him, and he vowed to completely sink the revenge of the Luo Wei warship and the determination to protect his homeland like a raging flame, burning the sea near Ryu Island.

However, at this time, a sudden wind rose on the sea, and the waves continued to push towards the Xinming boat, and the dense corpses were pushed to the side of the Xinming ship by the waves and blood. Some of the corpses were torn, and their clothes and armor were accompanied by innocent tropical fish that had been burned to death by bullets. However, there were still Luo Wei warriors who were pushed to the side of the Xinming ship alive and tried to board the ship, their hands shaking in front of their half-charred bodies. Sheng Zheng ordered to stabilize the course and speed, and at the same time asked me, "The hurricane is coming, and we can't make landfall in the west of Liudao, where should we go to avoid the wind and waves?" Because it was a surprise attack, we only brought fresh water and physical objects for two days, and this hurricane should have turned over this place in half an hour, and no one would survive, so we need to plan ahead and get out of here as quickly as possible. ”

I thought for a moment and said, "Let's see if the turtle boat has been swept up by the wind and waves, and take the Jeju sailors and soldiers on the turtle boat to the Xinming boat for future inquiries." We headed to the southernmost tip of the city of Beiming Hengxiao, next to the fjord, where the newly reclaimed port of Fufu was close to the water, where the current was gentle and large warships could be moored. From here, to the southwest, the line is very close. ”
