Chapter 123: Arduous "Hand-to-hand Combat"

Japanese warships. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Shimazu Nobuyoshi looked like he was holding the victory, looking at the large warships not far in front of him, Shimazu Nobuyoshi visually measured the distance, and saw that the warships of the Ming Dynasty Navy had entered the range of his own warships, and Shimazu Nobuyoshi was happy again.

"Yo Xi, you'll soon hear our dense cannon fire."

A subordinate next to Shimazu Nobuyoshi also said happily: "Your Excellency Shimazu, these Ming Dynasty sailors are dead, wait a minute, let me lead the samurai to rush up and kill them all." ”

Shimazu Nobuyoshi was about to agree, when a dense cannon sound came, Shimazu Nobuyoshi hurriedly looked into the distance, originally thought that his warship was firing cannons, but after seeing it clearly, Shimazu Nobuyoshi was stunned, with an expression of disbelief.

"Nani!"

Looking from Shimazu Nobuyoshi, I saw that the large Japanese warship in the front in the distance had been shot intensively, and in a short period of time it had been hit with a thousand holes, and the raging fire was already burning.

Zhang Feng had a total of eight sea vessels, concentrated all the artillery fire, and just now there was an intensive artillery bombardment, and the target was this large Japanese warship.

Even if this warship is relatively large, the design and craftsmanship are stolen from the Ming Dynasty warship, and it also adopts a strengthened structure and a watertight sub-compartment to resist sinking, but it can't withstand so much artillery fire, no matter how good the design and craftsmanship are, it is a warship with a wooden structure in the end.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The shelling of the sailors continued one after another, very intensively, and soon, the Japanese warship was directly reimbursed, not only burning a raging fire, but also close to falling apart, and it can be clearly seen that many Japanese sailors on the warship are diving.

Some Japanese sailors were covered with fire and were screaming and jumping into the sea, Zhang Feng clearly saw this scene in his command room, and Zhang Feng's expression was light.

Wang Jinsheng didn't have the image of a captain, he waved his fists happily and shouted excitedly: "Well done, kill these Japanese slaves!" ”

The concentrated artillery intensive shelling achieved immediate results, and without Zhang Feng conveying orders, all the sailors had already understood and fully understood Zhang Feng's tactical intentions, and under the command of the captains, they immediately locked on to the next target.

This is also a large Japanese warship, and it is also in the front position, it can be seen that this Japanese warship has been angled, the hull is facing everyone, and dozens of cannons are densely packed on the side of the ship is facing Zhang Feng's side, and this Japanese warship is ready to open fire.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

However, the Japanese warship was only ready to open fire, and before it could open fire, it was intensively shelled by sailors.

This was the second target of the sailors, and the target of the eight steam-powered sea ships was very clear, and the guns on the ships were aimed at the Japanese warship.

"Boom !!"

Under such intensive shelling, the Japanese warship flew sawdust, and then, with an earth-shattering explosion, the flames soared into the sky!

The gunpowder on this Japanese warship exploded!

Ships like this, which are loaded with a large number of artillery, are generally loaded with a large amount of black powder, and the explosion of these black powders is simply terrifying.

"Lord Commander, it's really relieving, it's spectacular!"

Wang Jinsheng had just witnessed the explosion of this Japanese warship, and when he saw this spectacular scene, he was so excited that he waved his fists, and his heart was very relieved, as if he had drunk snow water on a June day, and his heart was extremely refreshed.

Zhang Feng naturally saw this scene just now, and said happily: "The next target is it!" ”

Zhang Feng saw that a Japanese warship was approaching, and was already firing at his side, and one of his own sea ships was also hit by a bullet, and Zhang Feng personally designated the target.

Soon, the Japanese ship was destroyed.

After a round of intensive artillery bombardment by the sailors, the Japanese warship was basically scrapped, and as the distance between the two sides was further shortened, the accuracy of the sailors' artillery firing increased a lot.

On the Japanese warship, many Japanese sailors were crying for their fathers and mothers, and were hurriedly diving into the water, of course, more Japanese sailors were estimated to have died under the intensive shelling just now.

"Lord Commander, that's our fourth goal!"

Wang Jinsheng pointed to a Japanese warship not far away and shouted happily, this Japanese warship was approaching, and it was already firing at himself.

Zhang Feng nodded slowly, Zhang Feng's battlefield capture ability is good, and he has already found a trace of unusualness, when he concentrated his artillery fire to solve those Japanese warships one by one just now, several Japanese warships have completed the side detour, and are approaching from their flanks, and it seems that they will soon fire at themselves.

"Look at our wings!"

As soon as Zhang Feng reminded him of this, Wang Jinsheng immediately realized the crisis, and said in his heart that these Japanese sailors were really well-trained, and they did not forget to make a detour to their flanks despite the successive losses of many warships.

Zhang Feng did not want to see the enemy on both flanks, because this would not only increase the variables, but also cause him to suffer great losses.

"Pass my orders, free shelling, watch the flanks!"

The strategy of concentrating artillery fire and bombardment can only be suspended, Zhang Feng has a slight regret, but just now, he has sunk the opponent's three large main warships, and has also successfully cracked the opponent's tactical purpose, forcing the opponent to change the formation, and the tactical purpose has been basically achieved.

The flag-whispering soldiers waved their flags, and the ships began to shell freely, and the muzzles of several ships turned around and aimed at the Japanese ships approaching on both flanks.

A large-scale artillery battle begins!

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

Throughout Naha Bay, the sound of artillery shook the sky, and the two sides fought fiercely.

Because the sea surface of Naha Bay is not very vast, the mobility of his steam-powered sea ships is greatly limited, and now, many Japanese warships have approached and are already firing at him, Zhang Feng is a little helpless.

"If you continue like this, killing a thousand enemies will also cost you eight hundred!" Zhang Feng thought to himself.

"Look, Lord Chief!"

Wang Jinsheng pointed to the side in surprise, a approaching Japanese warship on the flank had been sunk, basically in a state of "falling apart", and was sinking.

Zhang Feng nodded, this naval battle was really hard, and fortunately, he had sunk the opponent's three large main warships with concentrated artillery fire just now, otherwise, it would be really difficult to say.

But even so, because the other party was already approaching, forcing Zhang Feng's warship into this Naha Bay, Zhang Feng's sea ship could only "hand-to-hand" with the other party, and the two sides shelled each other at close range.

"Lord Commander, our flagship has been shot and is already on fire!"

A sailor anxiously ran over to report loudly, Zhang Feng turned his head to see that the aft deck of his 2,000-material ship had been shot, and a large hole in the thick wooden deck was burning.

Zhang Feng said loudly: "Extinguish the fire!" ”

Zhang Feng had already seen that although he was shot and caught fire, it was not serious and did not affect the battle, but the fire had to be extinguished, because this was a wooden boat, and the fire could not be allowed to spread.

Zhang Feng didn't feel easy, and Shimazu Nobuyoshi was similar.

That Japanese warship.

The Japanese warship that Shimazu Nobuyoshi was riding was a little behind, but he could still see the whole battle situation, at this moment, Shimazu Nobuyoshi frowned slightly, and he couldn't understand that his warship had an advantage in numbers, but it did not take any advantage.

Not only did they not take advantage of anything, but they also sank several warships, three of which were large main ships.

"Baga, what kind of cannon are these Ming Dynasty sailors using, and how can they hit so accurately?"

Seeing that another warship of his own was shot not far away and began to sink, Shimazu Nobuyoshi shouted angrily.

An officer of the Satsuma Domain Navy next to him guessed: "Your Excellency Shimazu, these Ming army sailors may be using Franc cannons or red-coated cannons. ”

Shimazu Nobuyoshi nodded, and what he guessed in his heart was also the Franc machine cannon, I heard that this kind of cannon is very advanced, except for the Franc machine cannon, Shimazu Nobuyoshi can't think of any other cannon so powerful.

Although Zhang Feng fought more with less, he gradually gained the upper hand with his advanced 70-millimeter artillery......

………

Off the coast of Naha Bay.

A fleet of eight steam-powered ships is chopping through the waves and sailing at full speed, which of course belongs to Zhang Feng's fleet, and it is Zhao Weibin who leads the team.

Zhao Weibin stood in his command room, looking in the direction of Naha Bay, and the worry and anxiety on Zhao Weibin's face were clear at a glance.

At this moment, Zhao Weibin thought in his heart, I don't know what happened to the chief soldier, don't encounter that Japanese fleet, God willing, the chief soldier must be safe.

Zhao Weibin knew that the Japanese fleet had more than 30 large and small ships, and the total army had only eight sea ships, and the strength of the two sides was very different, and once the two sides went to war, the consequences would be very serious.

"Commander-in-Chief, Naha Bay ahead!"

Zhao Weibin nodded, waved his hand and said loudly: "Full speed ahead, target Naha Bay!" ”

Zhao Weibin secretly admired in his heart, the quality of these steam-powered ships is really good, after starting from Zhoushan Military Port, basically all the time sailing, the steam engine on the ship is almost working at full capacity, but only one of the steam engines on the ship has failed, after repair, it can travel again.

Zhao Weibin led his fleet and sailed at full speed to Naha Bay!

"Everyone, be quiet!"

Zhao Weibin shouted loudly, then pricked up his ears and listened carefully, and suddenly, no one spoke in the entire command room, only the sound of the ship sailing.

"Cannons!"

"It's definitely the sound of cannons!"

Zhao Weibin had already heard it, although it was faint, but after years of experience, Zhao Weibin still judged that this was the sound of cannonball, yes, it was definitely the sound of cannonball, and it was still the sound of intensive shelling.

"The sound of artillery is coming from Naha Bay, and the chief soldier is in danger! Pass my orders and get ready for battle! ”

The order was given, the sailors were in place, every cannon was loaded with gunpowder and shells, and every musket was the same, and the whole fleet sailed at full speed to Naha Bay!

Zhao Weibin thought in his heart, I hope it's not too late, I hope that the general soldier will not be in danger!
