"Fire!"

"Fire ......"

As orders were given one after another from the mouths of the commanders on both sides, the artillerymen on both sides completely forgot about other things, and they had only one thought, that is, to pour the projectiles on each other's bodies as quickly as possible. Completely annihilate the opponent from the flesh * body.

Billowing smoke accompanied by a violent sound of artillery filled the entire sea, enveloping the entire warring sea. At this point in the battle, both sides were red-eyed, and there were constantly sailors who fell on the deck screaming miserably, and there were also gunners on the upper deck who kept moaning and rolling on the deck in pain after being shot.

At this time, the power of the advanced firearms of the Weihai Weishui Division also began to gradually appear, and the artillery of the Weihai Weishui Division were all steel rifled guns customized by Yue Yang from modern times, first of all, they were stronger than the artillery used by the Zheng family in terms of quality, range and power. In these years, casting artillery is an out-and-out high-tech and difficult job, even if an experienced master comes to cast, it is already great to succeed in one or two out of ten, and the larger the caliber of artillery, the more difficult it is to cast, so most of the artillery used by the Zheng family's fleet are about eight pound guns, and the twelve-pound caliber artillery is only one on the bow and stern of Zheng Zhibao's Fu ship, so that when the two sides close the distance and start to fight the bayonet on the cannon, the Zheng family fleet immediately suffered a big loss.

"Boom ......"

With a loud bang, a Canghai ship of the Zheng family, which was rushing to the front, was hit by a thirty-two-pound cannon hit the waterline, and the cabin was immediately broken, a large hole the size of a table, and the sea water suddenly rushed into the cabin at a speed of nearly ten cubic meters per second, and the originally fast Canghai ship suddenly became as slow as an old man in the twilight.

"My lord, the king's ship has been shot!"

Zheng Zhibao, who was directing the gunner to press forward, turned his head to look after hearing the words of the deputy next to him, and saw that the Canghai ship on the left had begun to tilt, and the sea water was surging into the cabin. Zheng Zhibao's face immediately changed, if it was usual, he could stop the boat and find a way to block the hole. But now it is not the same as usual, and as soon as the ship stops, countless projectiles will drown the ship.

Zheng Zhibao is worthy of being the master who has been begging for half his life at sea, and he immediately had an idea, and he shouted loudly: "You immediately sue Wang Laosi...... The boat was not allowed to stop, and immediately rushed over to entangle with those Ming troops, preparing for a gang jump! ”

The Canghai ship that received the order did not hesitate at all, and immediately rushed towards a fourth-rank ship in front of it.

"My lord, the Zheng family's warship is rushing towards us!" The voice of a lookout rang out above a fourth-tier battleship on the far right.

"Immediately avoid to the right!" The captain of this fourth-class ship is a middle-aged man in his thirties named Gou Daren, a very experienced old pirate specially invited by Guo Jingxian, and the two once served under Liu Xiang. Friendship is naturally unusually deep.

With Goudaren's order, the helmsman standing next to him desperately twisted the rudder to the right, and the fourth-level battleship began to turn to the right, but to their surprise, the Canghai ship in front of them also turned around and put on a look of fighting with you to the end.

"Hey...... They really thought they were going to eat us. ”

As soon as Gou Daren saw it, he felt a sullen breath blocking his chest, and said with a sneer: "Order, all artillery fire is aimed at this Canghai ship, and concentrate fire to sink it!" ”

"Yes...... Sink it! ”

With Goudaren's order, the twenty-six guns on the left side of the fourth-tier ship spewed flames at the Canghai ship that had begun to pour out and was still rushing towards them.

"Boom...... Boom Boom Boom ......"

Since the distance between the two ships was already less than 100 meters, as long as the gunner's skill was not too trendy, it was rare to miss at such a distance. In this round of shelling, a total of more than 10 projectiles hit this Canghai ship, and the huge projectiles carried huge kinetic energy and punched out four big holes in this Canghai ship, and the angle of the ship, which had already begun to tilt, reached 45 degrees, and there was no way to move forward. In less than a few minutes, it fired the last three shells at the approaching fourth-class ship in despair, and then sank into the sea.

"The second master, the king led their ship to sink!" On Zheng Zhibao's boat, the deputy on the side let out a cry of anger and sadness.

"I know!" Zheng Zhibao's voice has not changed much, and he has been a businessman with no capital for so many years. He has long been accustomed to life and death, and his voice is still so calm, "My orders remain the same." All the ships went up with all their might and had a gang jump battle with these officers and soldiers! ”

Looking at Zheng Zhibao's almost cruel expression, the deputy next to him swallowed a mouthful of saliva and gave another order to speed up.

Looking at the enemy ships rushing towards them in a completely desperate posture, Guo Jingxian, who was standing on the deck, was naturally aware of the enemy's purpose.

"Want to play Gang Jumper? Lao Tzu is waiting for you! Guo Jingxian's face showed a faint sneer, "Order the firecrackers to get ready, as long as those miscellaneous people dare to approach, they will be greeted with firecrackers, and tell the brothers, when they get closer, the sailor who is aiming at them will give me a hard beating!" ”

"Yes!"

"Bang ......"

Although the naval battle was based on artillery bombardment, each ship had some guns more or less stored, especially since this thing did not occupy an area, and it was not a problem to put a hundred guns on the ship, so after the order was issued, many sailors with firearms appeared on each ship.

As the distance between the two sides approached, the sailors on the ships of the two sides could already see each other's faces clearly, and the Weihaiwei sailors in blue and white striped suits and the Zheng family sailors in short coats of various colors all clenched their weapons and stared at each other. Most of the sailors of the Zheng family were armed with weapons such as swords or throwing axes, while the sailors of the Weihai Wei Sailors held Mini-style firearms in their hands.

"Everyone has it, ready to jump to the gang!" The roars of the leaders were heard from the Zheng family's fleet.

In the face of the surging Zheng family's fleet, although the sailors of the Weihai Wei Navy Division were all a group of fledgling rookies, their strict training on weekdays still made them habitually obey the orders of their respective officers, and a Mini-style firearm was aimed at those ships that were getting closer and closer.

Although the effective range of the Mini-type firearm reached more than 400 steps, that is, more than 300 meters, naval battles were different from land battles, not to mention the smoke of gunpowder during naval battles, and the warships of both sides were also shaking violently. This also made it much more difficult to aim, and many people did not give the order to open fire but continued to give the order to wait.

"Steady...... All steady...... No shots without an order! ”

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and they could already see through the smoke of gunpowder the hideous faces of those sailors on the other deck, and many sailors on the Zheng family's ship also clenched the small flying axes in their hands. This small flying axe is a favorite throwing weapon used by the sailors of the Zheng family, it has the characteristics of strong armor-piercing ability, and ordinary armor cannot stop their attacks at a distance of fifty paces.

Almost at the same moment, the ships began to resound the roars of the officers of the ships and the leaders of the Zheng family

"Fire!"

"Throw the axe!"

With a loud roar, the sound of firing began to sound one after another, and one after another the discharged Mini bullets began to make a sound in the air that broke through the air.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

The crisp sound of the Mini-style firearm rang out, and one Mini bullet whistled out of the chamber. On the opposite side, the sailors of the Zheng family also threw out the flying axes in their hands.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

The dense lead bullets knocked down the Zheng family sailors standing on the deck like hail, and in an instant, the sailors who were originally going to jump the gang were suddenly swept down, and the sailors on the deck of the Weihai Wei Sailor Division on the opposite side were also uncomfortable.

"Ah......h

A sailor was struck in the chest with an axe that easily split the sailor's massive chest in half, and the sailor died instantly. I have to say that the lethality of this flying axe, which weighs three catties and six taels, is still very amazing, but all sailors who are hit by this kind of flying axe are either dead or disabled.

It's just that the Weihai Weishui Division has losses, but the Zheng family's losses are even greater. In the rows of gunfire, the sailors on the deck of the Zheng family's warship fell down as if they had been swept away by the wind, but the first round of guns killed thirty percent of the sailors on the deck.

The loss of the Zheng family was so great that even Zheng Zhibao, who has always been known for his ruthlessness, couldn't help but jump when he saw such a scene. The losses were so heavy that anyone who knew a little about naval warfare knew it. Jumping on a boat that is constantly shaking and moving at high speed is like dancing on a cliff, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the sea and drown, and you will even be sandwiched into meat sauce by two ships approaching at high speed. Therefore, gang jumpers need to have more than just extremely high gang jumping skills. They also need to have the courage to not be afraid of death, otherwise let alone jumping gangs, even standing by the boat and watching the sea water fly by will make them feel dizzy. This is a combat skill that requires a lot of specialized skill.

"Jumper...... All jumpers...... Get ready to jump! ”

"Throwing Axeman...... All axemen...... Get ready to jump! ”

"Hand-to-hand combat...... All hand-to-hand combatants...... Get ready to jump! ”

Many of the Zheng family's dresses resounded with the shouts of the leaders.

"Hurry up, we can't let them get close to us!" The shouts of the officers also sounded on the battleships of the Weihai Weishui Division......
