057 Capture at sea
However, the number of arrow warships was extremely large, and only a small part of them were damaged, and the other arrow warships were still rapidly approaching the Nuwa ship.
The arrow warship rushed from the south, and the Nuwa ship turned to the north, and the turning of the ship in the water could not be compared with the turning of the vehicle on land, the turning radius of the vehicle on land was very small, and the ship needed to draw a large arc when turning in the water, the diameter of this arc was closely related to the maneuverability of the ship, and the turning diameter of a warship like the Nuwa ship was about five times the length of the ship, that is, more than 400 meters.
In the process of this turn, the speed component of the Nuwa ship in the direction of the pursuit of the arrow warship was extremely small, so it was easy to be caught up by the arrow warship, and sure enough, the arrow warship on the right flank quickly approached a position more than six hundred meters away from the Nuwa ship.
At this moment, Lin Fei suddenly saw a large group of splashes appear on the water surface in the direction of the port side of the Nuwa ship, and it seemed that many things fell into the water at the same time, and the ripples spread in circles on the water surface, which was very beautiful, Lin Fei was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself what was that?
Lin Fei turned his head to look at Chen Fu on the side and asked, "Do you see the splash on the water?" What's that? ”
Chen Fu shook his head again and again, and said, "They didn't use that kind of thing when they beat us, I don't know if it's a special weapon?" ”
Lin Fei's heart was first tightened, and then he was relieved, secretly thinking that the people on the island didn't even have industry, so what advanced weapons could they create? Nothing to be afraid of.
Lin Fei picked up the microphone and said loudly: "No. 2, No. 3, No. 4 gun positions, concentrate firepower on the right flank of the enemy ship group!" In the army of Lin Fei's era, "one" was called "unit" and "two" was called "two", so as to avoid mishearing due to different dialects, and Lin Fei also brought this to this era.
"Ready! Two gun positions are ready! No. 3 ......" The four gun emplacements were prepared in order of numerical size, and "Bei Po" was the naval military language stipulated by Lin Fei, which means "ready", and the four gun emplacements were prepared and immediately began to attack.
Sun Yong led the gunners to use Lin Fei's newly developed stereo rangefinder to measure the distance of the arrow warship, and Huang San led the sailors to send the shells and propellant packs from the ammunition depot to the gun position, and then put the shells and propellant packs into the chamber one after another, and when the aiming was completed, press the firing button, and the shells flew towards the arrow warship.
The naval guns on the Nuwa ship use elastic gun mounts, so the rate of fire is not slow, and it can shoot six shells per minute, and the naval guns of this era are still very accurate at close range, so the group of arrow warships is full of water columns blown up by cannonballs for a while.
Although none of the shells in this wave directly hit the arrow warship, they all exploded on the left and right of the arrow warship, and the shock wave pushed the seawater, causing great damage to the ship's hull.
The fifteen arrow warships that were most promising to approach the Nuwa ship all slowed down, and six sank because of too much water leakage.
At this time, the arrow warship was still relentlessly chasing after the Nuwa ship, and the people on board were rowing like their lives, and the speed of the Nuwa ship was not fast at this time, and the distance between the Nuwa ship and the arrow warship was slowly shrinking.
Lin Fei looked at the approaching arrow warship and smiled in his heart, no matter how fast you are, you can use manpower to propel, but our warship is propelled by a steam engine, how can manpower be compared to the power of machinery?
Lin Fei said loudly: "Two cars forward two!" ”
The sailors next to him repeated loudly: "Two cars forward two!" Then he turned the bell and transmitted the command of the second advance to the steam engine room, and there was a rumbling sound from the hull of the ship, and the Nuwa ship began to accelerate slowly, and the speed gradually caught up with the arrow warship, and the distance between the two sides was no longer reduced, and soon the speed of the Nuwa ship exceeded the arrow warship, and the distance between the Nuwa ship and the arrow warship became larger and larger.
Lin Fei picked up the microphone and said loudly: "No. 4, No. 5, No. 6 gun positions, turn the gun muzzles, and continue to kill and damage the enemy ship!" ”
The Nuwa ship could turn three guns to point at the stern position, and these three guns were at the No. 4, No. 5, and No. 6 gun positions, and the three guns immediately opened fire, stopping the several arrow warships chasing the front on the sea.
A few minutes later, Ma Chengfeng on the mast sent a message with a microphone: "The enemy ship has retreated!" ”
Lin Fei didn't have much joy in his heart when he heard the news, because the flying arrow warships were wooden paddle warships, and winning against them was not a win at all, but the news sent by Ma Chengfeng afterwards made Lin Fei a surprise, only to hear Ma Chengfeng say: "Report to the captain, there is a flying arrow warship that has stopped on the sea more than five hundred meters away from us and has not withdrawn!" ”
Lin Fei's heart moved, and he secretly thought that wouldn't there be a chance to capture the prisoner? Captives are a good thing, and a lot of valuable information can be asked from them!
Lin Fei hurriedly said: "The right rudder is full, and the two cars are moving forward, approaching the flying arrow warship that has not withdrawn." ”
The Nuwa ship slowly turned and sailed towards the arrow battleship that had not withdrawn, and the distance gradually narrowed to more than two hundred meters, Lin Fei ordered: "Double car at a slight speed, cruise around the target ship, the dinghy is ready, and the marines are ready!" ”
The Marine Corps is a sniper team, and Lin Fei's current number of special forces is too small to form a new Marine Corps.
Lin Fei's order, and soon the sailor in charge of the dinghy and the captain of the sniper team, Zhang Chuang, sent a message: "The dinghy is ready!" Marines ready! ”
Lin Fei turned his head to Liu Daming and said, "Old Liu, you are staring here, Chen Fu, you follow me." ”
After Lin Fei finished speaking, he took Chen Fu to the dinghy position on the deck, the warship had a crane arm to retract the dinghy, when he put down the dinghy, he tied the dinghy with a steel cable, and the crane arm lifted the dinghy and put it on the sea, at this time the steel cable was already tied to the dinghy, Lin Fei gave an order: "Put the dinghy!" ”
The boom operator rotated the operating handwheel, the boom slowly lifted, rotated, descended, and put the skiff on the sea, and the rope ladder was lowered on the Nuwa ship, allowing Lin Fei to take Chen Fu and the others down to the skiff, the skiff was propelled, and everyone picked up the oars and rowed, pushing the skiff to slowly approach the arrow warship that did not withdraw.
Lin Fei turned his head and asked Chen Fu, "Didn't you say that there is a special weapon that can burn on the Flying Arrow Warship?" How many meters did they throw from approximately? ”
Chen Fu thought for a while and replied: "It's not far, it's just more than fifty meters." ”
Lin Fei nodded and said to everyone, "Let's not get too close, lest we be hurt by them!" Everyone agreed, and soon came to a place about a hundred meters away from the flying arrow warship, Lin Fei said loudly: "Don't get any closer, let's go around him, the brothers with big voices shouted at them, Chen Fu, you give the words of persuasion to the brothers." ”
Chen Fu taught a few words, and a loud warrior shouted at the arrow warship: "Surrender, you have no way out......
The soldier was shouting, Lin Fei suddenly saw several figures on the hardwood guard of the arrow warship, and then a string of black dots flew towards their small boat, Lin Fei was shocked, stretched out his hand to pull down the shouting warrior, and shouted loudly: "It's an arrow, everyone bow your head!" ”
Everyone lowered their heads and hid behind the side of the boat, only to hear the sound of "whooshing" flying overhead, Lin Fei peeked and saw the feather arrow falling into the water, stirring up clusters of splashes and circles of ripples, it turned out that the splash he saw before was made by the flying arrow.
Lin Fei secretly cursed in his heart, these guys are simply crazy, they actually hit our warship with bows and arrows! Lin Fei said loudly: "Shoot, kill them!" ”
Several soldiers poked their heads out and pulled the trigger, and after a burst of gunfire, several people on the hardwood guard board fell into the water, and Chen Fu whispered to Lin Fei on the side: "City Lord, our persuasion doesn't seem to work. ”
Lin Fei frowned and said, "What did you say about persuasion?" ”
Chen Fu said helplessly: "This has nothing to do with what you say, you listen to the sound of the waves and the wind, and then look at the distance from us to the arrow warship, the people on board can't hear anything at all!" Coupled with the fact that the loud-voiced brother couldn't pronounce it accurately, the people on the Arrow Warship couldn't hear what he was saying! ”
At this time, Zhang Chuang came over and said, "Captain, if you want them to hear us clearly, you can only get close to them!" ”
"No! It's so adventurous! I don't allow my subordinates to take such a risk! Lin Fei said categorically.
Zhang Chuang said: "If we don't get close, there is absolutely no way to persuade them to surrender, then we can only sink them!" ”
Lin Fei frowned and said, "But I want to capture the prisoner and understand the enemy's situation!" ”
Zhang Chuang said: "When can't the captives be caught? You've trained us to scratch tongues, and we'll sneak ashore tonight to catch a bunch of captives for you!" ”
Lin Fei pondered for a while and said, "That's it, close the team and retreat!" ”
Just when Lin Fei was full of disappointment, Chen Fu suddenly said on the side: "Captain, I have an idea. ”
Lin Fei stared at Chen Fu and asked, "What's the idea?" Say it! ”
Chen Fu said: "Since this ship is parked on the sea and does not leave, it must be very leaky, I think it will sink in a while, why don't we wait for this ship to sink before going over?" At that time, they were only concerned about running for their lives, and they would definitely not attack us with that special weapon! ”
Lin Fei thought for a while and smiled: "What you said really makes sense, then good, let's listen to you!" Brothers, let's wait for it to sink! ”
After more than 20 minutes, I saw that the arrow warship slowly sank into the water, and the people on board jumped into the water one by one, Chen Fu smiled and said: "Captain, their ship really sank, let's hurry up and capture the prisoners." ”
Lin Fei shook his head lightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's not the time yet!" ”
Chen Fu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Isn't it the time now?" So when is the time? ”
