Two sea monsters, quietly waiting for the arrival of the enemy. All the shells, naturally, are all stuffed into the barrel, and as long as the fuse is lit, the cannon can be fired. At the same time, the spare shells are also loaded in the spare barrel and can be replaced at any time. Each gunner had a fire fold ready, and with a vigorous shake, it could be ignited.

One of the great advantages of the sub-cannon is that each cannon has five spare sub-gun chambers, and after a shot, the sub-cannon chamber is immediately pulled out, replaced with a new sub-cannon chamber, and then the cannon is continued. There is no need to reload ammunition. In other words, the five guns in front are very fast.

As for the barrel after firing, it was quickly cleaned and then reloaded. This means that, as long as there are enough manpower, the fire rate of the Wyvern can be as fast as that of a breech gun. In a minute's time, it is perfectly okay to fire two cannons. Of course, because of the limited number of sailors on ordinary warships, such a need could not be met. After firing the first five shots, the speed will be reduced.

However, above these two monsters, it was the entire strength of the Tiger Ben Army Navy, including the two hundred naval cadets, all of whom went into battle. In addition to professional gunners, three people were specially assigned to load ammunition for each cannon. Therefore, the firing speed of the Wyvern Cannon can be greatly accelerated. At the very least, the first five rounds of shooting are fast, definitely faster than those pirates on the other side.

In addition to the gunners, the soldiers of the naval combat detachment led by Fang He and Liu Dong were also waiting on the upper deck of the two monsters. Their purpose was to prevent enemy ships from approaching by force. If the pirates try to force their way onto the ship, they will engage in hand-to-hand combat with the pirates and will not allow them to land. In this era, naval warfare and hand-to-hand combat were still the mainstream. Pirates were especially fond of hand-to-hand combat.

At the same time, when the enemy ships did not approach, Fang He, Liu Dong and others were responsible for helping the gunners to load ammunition to speed up the shelling. In addition to the combat personnel, the craftsmen accompanying the ship are also ready to repair the damage at any time. As soon as two monsters are damaged, they will quickly repair them. On top of the two floating batteries, there are also two medical squads, ready to provide simple treatment to the wounded.

Behind the two monsters, there are dozens of large and small sampans. On top of each sampan, there are five heavily armed Tiger Warriors. Their aim was to prevent enemy ships from scrambling through the cracks and trying to attack from behind the floating batteries. Although this may not be a big name, it is still necessary to prevent it for the sake of safety. At the same time, these sampans are also for emergency needs. In the unlikely event that two monsters are sunk, they can quickly evacuate the personnel above.

At the entrance to Mawan, there is a small island, which was originally called Huangdao. Since there is a larger island on the side of Da Songwei that is also called Huangdao, therefore, in order to confuse, Huangdao in Mawan is generally called Little Huangdao. On the top of Xiaohuang Island, there is a Xie's Tiger Ben Army stationed to prevent pirate ships from approaching Xiaohuangdao. In the event that the pirates storm Little Yellow Island, these Tiger Warriors on the sampan can also provide assistance to Little Yellow Island at any time.

It can be said that Zhang Zhun is now ready for everything, only the east wind is owed, and he is waiting for the enemy ship to enter the range. After careful calculation, he confirmed that if these pirate ships were to enter Mawan, it would be impossible for them to leave the range of the two floating batteries and Xiaohuangdao.

"What's that?"

"Is it Zhang Zhun's warship?"

"What kind of warship looks so weird?"

Sun Ronglu held up the clairvoyant mirror and found two monsters at the entrance of Mawan.

Since these two monsters were so peculiar, he couldn't make out what they were.

"I don't know."

"Perhaps...... Shipwreck? ”

"Or a stranded ship?"

His heart was also unrecognizable, and he could only answer in confusion.

From their point of view, the appearance of these two monsters is indeed a bit special. If you want to say that it looks like a ship, it doesn't look like a warship, and the draft is too deep. The draft of the sea ship cannot be so deep. With such a deep draft, when a wave passes, it will sink. It's not a boat, it's floating, and it has masts and sails. No matter how you look at it, it's something they've never seen before. However, one thing is for sure, these two monsters belong to Zhang Zhun. Because on the masts of these two monsters, Zhang Zhun's military flag is hung.

Eventually, most of the pirate leaders believed that Zhang Zhun had set up here in an attempt to block outsiders from entering. Their appearance is vaguely a lucky ship. Perhaps, Brigadier Zhang scuttled two Fu ships here, trying to block the shipping channel and prevent the pirate warships from entering. It's just that it's impossible to rely on such a monster to block the entry of a powerful warship. In front of the cannon, all obstacles will be shattered. Even a scuttled ship was smashed to pieces!

"All ships are free to attack!"

"Whoever enters Mawan first will be the first to do it!"

"Take Mawan! We are going to celebrate the New Year in Fushan City! ”

Sun Ronglu won the victory, and roared with vigour.

"General, it's better to be careful!"

"I don't know if Zhang Zhun has any tricks, do you want to send someone to test it?"

One of his subordinates said cautiously.

The subordinate who spoke was the last time he fought with Sun Ronglu. He was still on top of the sampan at the time, and when he found that he was attacked, his first reaction was to jump into the water, and because of his luck, he was able to pick up a small life. For Zhang Zhun, of course, he also hated it to the core. However, it was precisely because of the deep impression last time that this subordinate was extra careful. He always felt that the last time Zhang Zhun was so fierce against them, maybe this time there would be a powerful trick in the back. Once I was bitten by a snake, I was afraid of the well rope for ten years, and I was really afraid of being beaten last time!

"What do you suggest?"

Sun Ronglu, who had the chance to win, said a little impatiently.

If it weren't for his henchman, Sun Ronglu would have kicked him away. Lao Tzu is back to take revenge, mother-in-law and mother-in-law, how to take revenge? You also know how to call Lao Tzu a general, Lao Tzu is now an upright Zhangzhou general. Since they have all mixed up with the generals, it is natural to have the courage of the generals. Sneaky, isn't it the same as the way he used to be a pirate?

"Why don't you ask Lao Guo to take a look?"

The subordinates whispered.

"Go! Lao Guo, that cowardly! ”

"If you send him, he won't be able to find out anything by dawn tomorrow!"

"I have ten warships, what tricks can Zhang Zhun play? Give me the order, everyone attack immediately! ”

Sun Ronglu waved his hand impatiently.

Immediately, the flagship of all the attacks was hoisted on the flagship.

The ships immediately adjusted their state, and then rushed towards the two monsters.

"Lord Governor, it looks like the pirates are going to join us."

Shen Lingfei said with some concern.

"Hmm."

Zhang Zhun replied quietly.

These pirates, as expected, are still in that style, too contemptuous of their opponents. Zhang Zhun dared to conclude that the pirates must have not figured out what those two monsters were, so they brazenly launched an attack. Having said that, Zheng Zhilong's pirate group, the development in the past few years has indeed been quite smooth, except for Liu Xiang, there is basically no opponent. Obviously, I can't get into the eyes of others.

The Dutch only dared to make some trouble for Zheng Zhilong through Liu Xiang, and on the surface they still had to do business with Zheng Zhilong. Even, even the powerful Hongyi cannon was sold to Zheng Zhilong. Liu Xiang is now contained in the waters near Guangdong, and he only has the ability to parry, and he has no power to fight back. It can be said that on the coast of Fujian, Zheng Zhilong's pirate group has no opponents at all.

Probably Sun Ronglu felt that he had brought ten warships and was powerful, so he didn't take Zhang Zhun's sea power seriously at all. Well, ten warships are indeed very powerful. Even if it is a head-on hard shake of the Dengzhou Naval Division or the Tianjin Naval Division, there is no problem at all. He is also an unknown little person, and the pirates dispatch ten warships, no matter what, they can clean themselves up!

"Huh?"

"Lao Guo took the wrong medicine?"

Sun Ronglu suddenly screamed in surprise.

It turned out that he suddenly discovered that the most fierce warship was the old Guo who was scolded by him as a cowardless ghost. This kid has always been known for being cautious. Caution is sometimes synonymous with timidity. Unexpectedly, this Lao Guo actually seems to have taken an aphrodisiac today, and he is erect! The Haicang ship commanded by Lao Guo unprecedentedly pulled down the other warships for an unprecedented distance and rushed forward bravely.

Actually, the captain named Lao Guo just wanted to pick up a bargain. In the past, every time he fought, he was used to shrinking his surname behind, so he was called a cowardless ghost. However, this time is different. This time the enemy didn't seem to have much ability to resist, and the two monsters, probably sunken ships or something, tried to block the shipping lane. Therefore, Lao Guo's positive surname came up immediately.

Who wouldn't want a risk-free battle?

The Haicang ship commanded by Lao Guo has a displacement of only about 100 tons, and the so-called ship is small and good to turn around. The small size of the Haicang ship and the speed of the start were fast, and it quickly rushed up. Other pirate ships probably didn't expect this old Guo to be so brave. Because everyone was a little surprised, they watched Lao Guo's warship rush out first, so everyone was actually half a beat slower. By the time they started, their warship and Lao Guo's warship had already opened up about thirty or forty zhang away.
