Chapter 10 Hand-to-hand combat

At the beginning of the British Navy, the salvo of steam ironclads frightened the Qing army, but fortunately, at that time, even Britain, which had the most advanced industrial civilization, could only use extremely primitive ways of loading shells. So after the initial attack, under the command of Chen Liansheng, the Guangdong Navy Division finally organized a counterattack.

Boom Boom Boom!

With Yang Ye's order, the five cannons on the side of the Mighty Warrior, which had been flexibly driving to the flank of a British battleship, opened fire at the same time. It's a pity that the quality of these shells and gunpowder is really overwhelming, and two of the five shells fired actually fell into the sea in half. Two of the remaining three missed, and one hit the opponent's hull without pain. and did not cause substantial harm.

"Attention helmsman! Tell all helmsmen to give their full attention and dodge the opponent's counterattack. Otherwise, everyone will die! Yang Ye's state at this time was hideous and terrifying, and he gave an order loudly.

Sure enough, after a while, the British battleships on the opposite side began to counterattack. Fifteen cannons bombarded at the same time, and almost all of them were dodged by the Mighty. It can also be seen from here that although the Qing warships were broken and small, their flexibility and maneuverability at sea were better than those of the British warships.

So with the skillful helmsman's manipulation, only one of the fifteen shells finally landed on the deck of the Mighty. And if he didn't die, he happened to go towards Zhao Wushuang's pile of wooden boxes!

"Day dog! Is Lao Tzu hiding so hidden that he will be bombarded by shells? Zhao Wushuang cursed, and before the cannonball with a scorching breath hit the hiding place, he bent and stretched out, and the brush ejected. A thick snake appeared on the deck.

However, at this time, the entire Mighty was in chaos, and no one noticed him, otherwise it would be more chaotic.

Zao Wou-shuang once again bent and stretched his body, and with the help of the tremendous power of his muscles, he soared into the air and directly stuck from the deck to the wall below the mast like a flying snake. Then he climbed up to the command room, where there were only Yang Ye and his deputy pipe band, as well as a few henchmen's personal soldiers and heralds.

As soon as he went to the command room, the deputy pipe band and a few personal soldiers immediately reacted. Qi brushed out the war knife at his waist and surrounded Zhao Wushuang in a zigzag shape.

The deputy pipe frowned: "How can there be such a big snake on a warship?" And it looks like it's still a poisonous snake! ”

Another burly soldier was taken aback: "Poisonous snakes are generally relatively small, such a big poisonous snake? It's really ...... It's kind of weird. ”

"In short, protect Brother Yang, the war is tight, don't be harmed by these evil things."

As he spoke, he lunged at him, waving the sharp knife in his hand, obviously trying to chop him up. The sub-pipe was very good, and it slashed directly at his seven-inch position.

Zhao Wushuang was naturally not a vegetarian, and with a brush of his thick snake tail, he very accurately wrapped the wrist of the pipe strap and made him unable to move a bit. Then the muscles exerted force, and directly lifted his whole person and hung him in the air. Throw it back again, and it will directly smash on the three pro-soldiers who drew their swords. The four of them suddenly rolled into a ball.

However, because Zhao Wushuang controlled the strength, they didn't fall hard.

Others didn't expect this evil snake to come out of nowhere so powerful. Some of the soldiers raised their bows and crossbows, ready to shoot.

At this time, Yang Ye rushed over from behind, and said with some surprise: "Brother Snake? You are Brother Snake! You're not at home, how did you get to my warship! Why, you really want to fight the Xiyi ghost with me! Attaboy! With that, he squatted down and patted Zhao Wushuang's head.

"Say dog! Take your hand away from your brother. Haven't you heard of a woman's waist, a man's head can't be touched casually? I'm really here to be British, and to become strong faster. Zhao Wushuang secretly slandered in his heart, but there was no way to say it.

The deputy pipe strap got up from the ground, and his jaw almost dropped when he saw Yang Ye and Zhao Wushuang being safe. It took a long time to come back to his senses: "Boss Yang, this ...... This is what you usually tell your brothers about the house snake? There really is such a big psychic viper! ”

Yang Ye wanted to speak, but the entire warship suddenly shook, and then tilted to one side with a very large amplitude. He didn't stand still and almost fell, but fortunately, Zhao Wushuang wrapped him up with his snake tail so that he didn't really fall.

It turned out that just a moment ago, the British battleship on the opposite side bombarded more than a dozen shells. The tilt of the warship just now was a difficult maneuver to dodge.

He staggered a few times to stand firm, brushed out the snow knife on his waist, and roared with all his might: "Dodge the artillery fire and go at full speed!" Get close to the Xiyi warship and engage in broadside battles! ”

That's really desperate. With the help of the agility and maneuverability of the Qing army's naval division warships, find a way to get close to the British battleship, and then jump directly onto the opponent's deck for a tragic broadside battle.

But this is something that Zhao Wushuang can't ask for!

After all, his flesh and blood are still relatively vulnerable to artillery fire, but if he goes to the deck of the British for contact warfare.

Hey, hey, hey. Imagine a four-metre-long venomous snake wreaking havoc in a crowd.

Yang Ye did have some ability on weekdays, braving the cannon fire and wind and waves in the sky, this mighty ship that relied purely on manpower and sails actually passed through many obstacles and completely approached the British battleships that had been fighting against him. The British on the opposite side were a little stunned, but they didn't expect the Qing army to really come over and have a broadside battle.

“Fuck! Killthem! (Rub, kill them!) )

The British, too, raised their guns with bayonets and aimed them at the mighty soldiers who were about to jump broadside with ghost-headed machetes in their hands.

"Get out of the way and let me come!" The rugged-looking deputy strapping roared, stepped directly on the slightly upturned front edge of the deck of the Mighty, and leaped towards the deck of the British warship. At the same time, in mid-air, he can actually throw out a few slender things with his left hand.

The others couldn't see it clearly, but Zhao Wushuang on the deck could see clearly that it was a few sharp hidden weapons! It was these hidden weapons that were accurately inserted into the necks of those British soldiers who were about to raise their guns to shoot, making them think they were dead.

With a thud, the pipe strap landed accurately on the deck of the British army. Directly raised the knife and cut off the head of the Englishman closest to him, and suddenly blood splashed all over his head and face like a fountain, like a ghost.

Just like that, the British, who had more advanced weapons and equipment, were frightened, and so many people on the deck actually had a short period of sluggishness. At this moment, the soldiers on the Mighty Warrior, under the leadership of the generals, shouted that they landed on the British battleships......

Zao Wushuang was so stimulated by the scene of flesh and blood flying in front of him that his muscles trembled—not fear but excitement, the kind of human soul that he didn't seem to be able to control, from the instinctive bloodlust and ferocity of this poisonous snake's body.

"I'm going to go too!" He roared inwardly, and his swarthy body stretched out, like a cannonball, from the deck of the Mighty Might, and landed on the British deck with a thud. The iron-clad deck made him feel more comfortable than the wooden deck of the Mighty.

The snake's tail swept away, and a stunned British soldier next to him was swept over by him. The upper and lower jaws of the snake head parted, and the foul-smelling bloody mouth opened, and with a single click, the entire head of the hapless Englishman was bitten. Blood splattered and flowed out.

Zhao Wushuang's huge triangular snake head opened and closed up and down, making a crisp sound like chewing beans, with the headless corpse and flowing blood in front of him, like a fierce beast jumping out of hell, terrifying!
