Although the turtle ships were in danger of being surrounded by many people, the soldiers on the turtle ships did not give up.

It's just that they can't take advantage of the ship, but the big swords and swords in their hands are not fire-burning things. At this time, it's nothing more than desperate.

The navy of the island country slowly approached the turtle boat that was surrounded, but at this time it found a very embarrassing problem. Because their generals told them not to sink the turtle ships, so that only the possibility of taking the ship was left in the broadside.

However, if you want to take the boat, you have to get to the turtle boats at the very least. However, the turtle boats were much higher than their warships, which made it much more difficult for them to climb on those turtle boats.

If that's all there is to it, then forget it. But the key problem is that when the navy of the island country overturns the masts of the ships on top of the turtle ships, and wants to use those masts to climb the turtle ships, they have to meet the rain of arrows from the inside of the turtle ships.

Those turtle boats are called turtle ships because they are as well defended as the turtles. In addition to the heavy layer of plate armor on the top of the ship as protection, there are only a few perforations around the ship.

The soldiers on the turtle boat used the holes on the turtle boat to make the soldiers of the island country look at the surrounded turtle boat in front of them, but there was no way to do it.

In desperation, the local navies of the island countries could only ask for assistance from the Kyoto fleet. As one of the three main fleets of the island nation, the Kyoto Fleet will naturally not be as helpless as the local navy.

The main thing is that the Kyoto fleet was armed with gunpowder weapons, so. Even with a defense like a turtle ship. If it's set on fire. That is also the fate of sinking that cannot be escaped.

At this time, the admirals of the island country really wanted to capture those turtle ships, so they did not use artillery for a long time. However, since the local navy had asked for help from the Kyoto Fleet at this time, the Kyoto Fleet naturally could not continue to hide.

Although the artillery is not used, the musket can still be used. After all, trying to sink a turtle ship with a musket seems a bit of a whimsical rhythm.

However, the powder gun could not sink the turtle ship, but it was enough to cover the island nation's naval non-commissioned officers to climb onto the turtle ship. If the soldiers on the turtle ship continue to use the shooting holes to fire crossbow arrows against the soldiers of the island nation. The soldiers of the Kyoto fleet were able to use powder guns to kill those who were shooting arrows.

Because the gunpowder gun is fast enough, the bullets fired are almost in a straight line. In this way, even the soldiers on the turtle boat hiding behind the shooting holes suffered heavy casualties.

And after the sergeant of the island navy boarded the turtle ship, then the defense on the turtle ship was equivalent to nothing. After all, the defense of the turtle ship is mainly to defend against arrows or stone throws in the place.

Since the naval non-commissioned officers of the island country boarded the turtle ship, the soldiers on the turtle ship also raised their weapons and prepared to meet them. As long as they have one person alive, it is impossible for the island nation's navy to capture these turtle ships.

Zhou Tai was also unusually anxious at this time, after they defeated the first batch of island warships that came to stop them. The second group of warships from the island nation also quickly surrounded them. After they surrounded them, they contained Zhou Tai and them from the battlefield. There was no way to help the fenced turtle ship and the only two or three flamethrowers left to survive.

In a hurry, Zhou Tai even ordered the gunboats behind him to ignore them, and probably aimed at the warships of the island country and bombarded them directly. But even so, those navies of the island country were still not afraid of life and death to contain the fifty warships led by Zhou Tai from the battlefield.

"Boom!"

Just when Zhou Tai was still thinking about how to rush into the battlefield and disrupt the formation of the island fleet, a loud noise came from the center of the battlefield.

The sudden sound of this loud noise made Zhou Tai and the others outside the battlefield stop their movements at the same time as the island navy and look towards the battlefield where the loud noise was made.

Zhou Tai also has a telescope, so he can see the situation on the battlefield more clearly.

From the telescope, a turtle ship has been blown up and is about to sink to the bottom of the sea.

When he first saw this situation, Zhou Tai didn't know very well why this happened. But soon, Zhou Tai understood what had just happened.

Before Zhou Tai put down the telescope in his hand, another "boom" explosion came from the battlefield.

It turned out that although the soldiers on the turtle ship fought bravely against the enemy, they could not stand the large number of enemies, and at the same time, the soldiers of the Kyoto fleet were sweeping the side with muskets. The soldiers on the turtle ship did not want the turtle ship to be captured by the island navy after they died, so when almost all the soldiers on the turtle ship were killed, they detonated the explosives accumulated on the ship and sent the enemies on the turtle ship into the sea along with the turtle boat.

Looking at this scene, Zhou Tai's eyes widened, and his eyeballs almost burst out.

When he took these more than 100 warships to the east to conquer the island country, he didn't bring those people to die. But now, the Spitfire has been completely destroyed, and even the turtle ship, which is the main force, now looks like it is about to sink into this sea.

In this way, how could Zhou Tai still be able to maintain his composure?

"Pass my order, and the whole army will press on! If you can't get out of the trapped brothers, then you will all die here! At this time, Zhou Tai, who was angry, also issued orders to all ships.

All of a sudden, the fleet led by Zhou Tai and them swarmed forward, completely ignoring the loss of the warships. Even the gunboats that were parked behind were forced forward at this time, and they were full of firepower. Under the onslaught of Zhou Tai, the island fleet also quickly showed defeat.

At the same time, the island navy has been fighting for a long time when it sees those turtle boats, and even if it is about to clear the soldiers on a turtle ship, the remaining soldiers will detonate the explosives on the turtle ship. As a result, the soldiers of the island nation paid huge casualties, but they received nothing.

The general of the Kyoto fleet looked at the soldiers on the besieged turtle ship at this time, and after still not having the slightest intention of surrendering, he also sighed, and planned to order the ship's artillery to open fire and send all the turtle ships to the bottom of the sea.

But at this moment, in the rear of the Kyoto fleet, there were bursts of explosions.

"What's going on?" After hearing the explosion, the generals of the Kyoto fleet also immediately asked the warships in the rear for news.

In a few moments, the news reached the ears of the general. It turned out that the blasting ship sent by Zhou Tai to make a detour finally circled behind the island fleet at this time. After rounding around, they did not attack immediately, but waited until the attention of those island warships was attracted by the turtle ships, and then rushed out.

After the blasters rushed out, they also found their targets and smashed the blasters into the target ship.

However, even if those blasters were somewhat prepared, they were still sneak attacking the warships of the island country, but when the people on the blasters used the small boats to escape, they were still discovered by the people on the warships of other island countries. In the end, less than a hundred of the 20 soldiers on the demolition ship escaped.

Even with heavy losses, the demolition ship played a role in turning the tide of the war.

The gunboats of the Kyoto Fleet of the island nation are basically at the rear. The first round of attacks by the blasters sank more than a dozen gunboats of the island nation. As a result, the island country is also a little unable to bear this loss.

In addition, the general of the Kyoto fleet did not know how many blasting ships Zhou Tai and they had, so when he saw that he could not expand the results of the battle in a short time, the general had to order a retreat. (To be continued......)
