056 New Shells

Chiyo Mika heard Liu Daming call her "Lin Fei's woman", and immediately lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, Senior Vice Liu, I have nothing to do with Lin Feijun......"

Chiyo Mika's thin voice was quickly drowned out by the angry shouts of everyone, and in the angry shouts, Lin Fei shouted and said, "Brothers, please be quiet and listen to me!" ”

Lin Fei shouted three times in a row before everyone quieted down, and then Lin Fei said: "Brothers, we are going to attack the island, but there is a problem, that is, everyone's current mentality is not right!" ”

Liu Daming said: "What's wrong? The people on the island are bullying us, we should kill them! ”

Lin Fei said, "You should remember what I said to you when we defeated Patriarch Makai Paslow, right? I have told you a long time ago that you cannot conquer the enemy by killing alone, and it is the same now, and today on the island we have encountered a very strange thing! ”

Everyone asked, "What's strange?" ”

Lin Fei said: "At the beginning, the Sultan of Bazail didn't understand us Chinese, I told him that the Chinese are different from the Filipinos and Spaniards, and he understood and agreed to release them, but as soon as I walked out of the palace, their people besieged us, why did they rebel, isn't it strange?" ”

Liu Daming said: "What's so strange about this? I think only we Chinese people in the world keep their promises the most! ”

Lin Fei said: "I don't think it's a matter of keeping their promises or not, if they really wanted to kill us, they could have fought us a long time ago, why bother talking a lot about it, and then do it at the end?" ”

Everyone also understood that something was wrong, and Liu Daming asked, "Then what's going on?" ”

Lin Fei shook his head and said, "I can't figure it out either, so the main purpose of our arrival on the island is to figure out this matter, not to kill people!" The Muslims on the island have their own beliefs and cultures, and unlike the uncultured Filipinos, we can't assimilate them, so we have to woo them and make them our allies! ”

Liu Daming and the others understood, and said one after another: "Okay, captain, how do you say we should fight this battle?" ”

didn't wait for Lin Fei to speak, only to hear the correspondent Ma Chengfeng shouting loudly on the mast: "Suspicious targets have been found on the port side, the number is ominous, and they are approaching our ship at high speed!" ”

Lin Fei's heart moved, and he immediately thought of the "Flying Arrow Battleship" that Chen Fu said, so he said loudly: "The whole ship has entered the combat state!" Everyone, everyone! ”

Everyone immediately ran back to their positions, Lin Fei turned his head and said to Chiyo Mika: "Mika, the captain's room is in front, you can go by yourself, I can't accompany you over." ”

After Lin Fei finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the command room, Chiyo Mika suddenly stretched out her left hand and pulled him, Lin Fei stopped his steps, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Chiyo Mika timidly asked, "When can we go back?" ”

Lin Fei said: "It's hard to say, you have to rescue all the people on the island before you can go back." ”

Chiyo Mika's expression moved, as if she had something to say, Lin Fei asked, "Do you have something?" ”

Chiyo Mika shook her head lightly and said, "No...... It's all right, Lin Feijun, go and command the battle. ”

Lin Fei thought that Chiyo Mika must have something, but now that the military situation is urgent, it is too late to ask more, so let's wait until these "flying arrow warships" are solved.

Lin Fei rushed into the command room in a few steps, picked up the microphone and said loudly: "Boatswain, start the windlass, collect the anchor!" ”

The hull of the ship moved slightly, and the anchor was driven by the windlass, and slowly left the seabed, Lin Fei shouted loudly: "Two cars forward one, left rudder fifteen!" ”

The sailors in the command room repeated Lin Fei's order loudly: "Two cars forward one!" "Left Rudder Fifteen!" Then the Guò clock sent a command to the engine room, turning the rudder to adjust the course, and the Nuwa ship slowly moved.

Lin Fei gave the order of "Left Rudder Fifteen" with unique considerations, after the Fifteenth Left Rudder, the course of the Nuwa ship was to sail away from the island and sail towards the sea, in the wide sea area, the Nuwa ship could give full play to its fast speed advantage and throw off those arrow warships on the opposite side.

The Nuwa ship was slowly turning, Lin Fei picked up the microphone, contacted Ma Chengfeng on the mast, and said loudly: "Send a message to the Pangu ship and ask them to withdraw from the battlefield immediately!" ”

Ma Chengfeng replied loudly: "Understood! Immediately a light signal was sent to the Pangu ship, and the Pangu ship received the order and sailed into the distance, and as soon as the Pangu ship withdrew, only the Nuwa ship was left on the sea to face the arrow warship of the Muslim warriors.

Lin Fei picked up the binoculars and looked at the arrow warship in the distance, only to see that the waves on the bow of the ship were huge, and he knew that the speed of this kind of ship was very fast. Lin Fei handed the telescope to Chen Fu and asked, "Look at the ship that came, is it the flying arrow warship you met?" ”

Chen Fu picked up the binoculars and looked at them, and said, "That's right, that's it!" ”

Lin Fei laughed and said, "You can watch it carefully and see if we can win them!" ”

Lin Fei turned his head to Liu Daming and said, "Old Liu, you are staring here, I'll go to the gun position to take a look." ”

Liu Daming nodded in agreement, Lin Fei walked out of the command room in a few steps, and came to the No. 1 gun position, Sun Yong was the gun commander of this gun position, Lin Fei asked directly: "Is our stereo rangefinder still easy to use?" ”

Sun Yong nodded and replied: "It's easy to use, it's much more accurate than visual ranging!" ”

Lin Fei asked, "What is the distance now?" ”

Sun Yong replied: "Three thousand five hundred meters!" ”

Lin Fei nodded and said, "Very good, wait until two thousand meters to fire the first shot!" ”

Sun Yong was stunned for a moment and asked, "Two thousand meters to open fire?" Can you hit accurately? ”

Lin Fei said with a smile: "The freeboard of a small boat like theirs is very low, and a hardwood guard is added to the hull, which improves the center of gravity, and the stability must be very poor, our shells are filled with trinitrotoluene explosives, which are much stronger than black powder, and they explode in the water, maybe they can overturn their boat." ”

Sun Yong was taken aback and asked, "Is this trinitrotoluene explosive so powerful?" ”

Lin Fei laughed and said, "Of course, our trinitrotoluene explosives are the most advanced explosives in the world!" ”

Sun Yong was a little incredulous and asked, "More advanced than the explosives used by the British?" ”

Lin Fei thought to himself, the explosives used by the British are still picric acid, and the picric acid will be replaced by trinitrotoluene explosives in the future, and of course our explosives will be advanced by the British, Lin Fei nodded, and Sun Yong asked, "Is it true?" ”

Lin Fei scolded with a smile: "Of course it's true! Where did you kid get all this nonsense? Hurry up and get ready to fire! ”

Sun Yong laughed, said no more, and began to concentrate on aiming, and soon the opponent's boat reached a distance of two thousand meters, Sun Yong pressed the firing button, and with a "boom", a cannonball came out of the chamber and flew towards the opponent's boat.

The shell drew an arc in the air and fell heavily into the water, and the warhead was equipped with a delayed trigger fuse, which was also designed by Lin Fei, and he added a spring buffer device to the fuse, which cushioned the moment the fuse touched the target, delaying the explosion by more than 0.03 seconds.

Don't look at 0.03 seconds is very short, but this is already the limit of delaying the explosion of the fuse, it is this 0.03 seconds that allows the shell to penetrate the target and explode.

The shell fell into the water more than three meters in the moment of delay, and the mercury thunderate detonator immediately detonated the trinitrotoluene explosive, and the violent explosion occurred in the water, the density of the water is thousands of times that of the air, so the power of the explosive explosion in the water is much stronger than the explosion of the explosive in the air, and the shock wave in the water flow went straight to the nearest boat.

The arrow warship is made of wood, because the Muslim tribes on the island are not industrially developed, they cannot make iron nails, so the wood is connected by mortise and tenon, and the mortise and tenon connection is a connection that is carried out by changing the shape of the wood itself.

As soon as the Muslim warriors on board saw that the hull of the ship was broken and the cabin was flooded, they immediately scooped up the water with clay pots and pots and poured it outside, so that people could not care about paddling, and the speed of the arrow warship slowed down!

Lin Fei saw at a glance that the speed of the arrow warship had slowed down, and said loudly: "Our trinitrotoluene explosives have an effect!" Order the other gun emplacements and fire them now! ”

The Nuwa had six 120 mm guns, one in the bow, one in the stern, and the other four on both sides.

The four naval guns fired together, and the four shells flew into the ranks of the arrow warship, two of which missed and had no effect, and one exploded five or six meters away from a arrow warship, and the big wave set off by the shock wave directly overturned the arrow warship, and the arrow warship smashed into the sea like a turtle that had been turned over.

There was also a cannonball that was very lucky, it hit a flying arrow warship directly, and the hardwood guard installed on the arrow warship can be bulletproof, but it is impossible to prevent cannonballs. The cannonball, which flew at a speed of several hundred meters per second, slammed into the hardwood guard with tremendous kinetic energy, and the hardwood guard was as fragile as a white paper under a red-hot iron!

The cannonball penetrated the guard plate and exploded under the guard plate, because the distance was too far, so Lin Fei and the others could not hear the explosion at all, they could only see a thick black cloud rising from the arrow warship, the high temperature generated by the explosion instantly ignited the arrow warship, the wood of the battleship was brushed with tung paint without fireproof treatment, which was very flammable, and the arrow warship suddenly burst into flames, and the people on the boat jumped into the sea like dumplings, and the hull barely floated on the sea, and it sank into the sea after less than five minutes.
