What the!

The warships of the Song Empire could actually have ninety-two guns!

When Liu Dascar told Zhang Bangchang that there were ninety-two artillery pieces on the naval warships of the Song Empire, he could no longer be calm.

The ship he now commands is a Spanish galleon.

The size of such a ship seemed to him to be very large, at least a third larger than that of the Dutch warships.

Zhao Hongyu sent 19 warships as gifts, including Spaniards and Dutch.

And the Spanish galleons like this one, because of their large size, could only hold twenty-four guns. This is already remarkable, at least Zhang Bangchang thinks so.

In Zhang Bangchang's eyes, the Spanish galleon as the flagship is already a very, very good warship, and there are twenty-four guns, which are much stronger than the building ships and fighting ships of the Ming Dynasty.

But now, he was told that such a ship was nothing. There was another kind of ship in this world, much more sophisticated than the three galleons of the Spaniards.

It was a surprise to him.

And he couldn't imagine what a warship with ninety-two guns would look like.

Especially after he saw the power of the European warships just now, he couldn't let himself imagine the scene of ninety-two guns firing.

You must know that this is a ship.

If you want to come to the warships of the Song Empire, there must be more than one.

If there were a dozen of them, wouldn't there be hundreds of guns?

For example, he has less than 200 artillery pieces on his side, which is already considered very remarkable, and he has taken advantage of them in the battle.

He couldn't imagine what it would be like if the Song Empire's warships were fighting at sea, firing hundreds of cannons at a time.

One thing is for sure, though, the scene is absolutely spectacular.

"You kid didn't talk nonsense. How could there be a warship capable of carrying ninety-two guns? You're just talking nonsense, it's simply impossible. ”

However, Zhang Bangchang quickly stopped his cranky thoughts. and expressed his disbelief in Liu Da Scar, because he suddenly thought of a question, which was a loophole in Liu Da Scar's words.

In this era, it is not that any kind of artillery can be loaded on a ship.

First of all, the range and power of the artillery, as well as the caliber size, especially the weight of the gun and the recoil generated when firing, all need to be considered very comprehensively.

It's not like you can move a cannon to a ship.

All things. It's not as simple as talking.

You consider whether the hull will be able to withstand the artillery, as well as its recoil.

At the same time, the weight of the artillery is also very critical, after all, this is at sea. If the artillery is too heavy, it will not crush the ship.

After all, the hulls of ships of this era, both inside and out, were built using timber structures. Compared to the metal materials of another time and space, the wooden hull structure is still relatively fragile.

Especially at sea, once there is a strong wind and waves, the heavy artillery cannot be fixed due to the weight. It will bring great disaster.

This is definitely not alarmist, or casual.

Think about it, how much does ninety-two guns weigh.

At the same time, when there was wind and waves at sea, how could these ninety-two guns be fixed?

These are all big questions.

The heavy barrel of the gun was bumpy and undulating. An unstable one will crash all over the cabin.

Its heavy cannon hull hits the wooden structure of the cabin, which can completely destroy the hull.

Hey!

I have seen people from a young age, do I still know that you like to brag?

After Zhang Bangchang thought of this, he was relieved.

Meantime. He thinks that this is Liu Da's old problem again, and he must be bragging.

After all, he was an acquaintance of Liu Dascar's father, when Liu Dascar was still young. Zhang Bangchang knew him.

So, what kind of virtue Liu Da scar is, Zhang Bangchang knows very well.

Liu Da Scar is good at everything, but he likes to brag.

If you don't know him very well, you won't know about this shortcoming.

But Zhang Bangchang is too familiar with Liu Da's scar, so how can he not understand it.

"Da Liu, how much does ninety-two artillery pieces weigh? At least seven or eight hundred pounds for one of them, and how big a ship with ninety-two guns can withstand it. And this is still without firing cannons, and if there is an artillery battle, its hull will have to bear even more. ”

Zhang Bangchang turned his face sideways and said to Liu Da Scar.

The catty algorithm of this era is hexadecimal, so Zhang Bangchang's so-called seven or eight hundred catties is more than 1,000 catties according to another space-time algorithm.

But this is nothing, after all, iron artillery is also very heavy.

In particular, Zhao Hongyu's shipborne artillery was twenty-four guns.

Of course, there are no more than 1,000 catties, but 7 or 800 catties are indeed here.

After all, these cannons were purchased from the virtual world realm, using modern metallurgical forging techniques, which is not something that people of this era can think of.

But even so, ninety-two guns are not light.

After Liu Dascar heard this, he couldn't hear the sound outside the strings.

However, the warships and artillery of the Song Empire were all seen with their own eyes. This time he didn't brag, the conscience of heaven and earth this time.

"Uncle, I didn't say much. The warships of the Song Empire could indeed carry ninety-two guns, and this kind of warship was said to be the standing warship of its naval division. I've seen bigger ships with more guns, 108 guns and four decks......"

Liu Da Scar can touch his conscience to speak, and all this he says is true.

However, Zhang Bangchang just smiled and shook his head, and did not mean to continue to dwell on this issue.

Obviously, Zhang Bangchang is just bragging about him.

Liu Da Scar was a little angry.

However, they are already approaching the battlefield in the melee, so it is not good to continue to dwell on this issue at this time.

Hum!

When Li Dalongtou comes back, you will know, this time I didn't brag.

Liu Da Scar saw his side. When he was about to start contact with the enemy, he immediately turned his mind to the battlefield.

However, he was still unconvinced and complained in his heart.

Wang Renzeng, who found Zhang Bangchang and them rushing over, met him with several bucket boats cruising on the periphery of the melee.

The battle in the heart has become more and more intense.

However, because there was not much room for maneuvering on the battlefield, and at the same time, Wang Ren had to prevent the people of Amami Island from escaping, so he arranged a lot of warships on the periphery.

And Zhang Bangchang destroyed the combat power of the left flank, and after rushing over, he completely broke the balance here.

"Damn, are all those people on the left eating! Why can't they stop these Francos. Let them rush over! ”

Wang Renzeng also discovered Zhang Bangchang and them at this time, and saw that Zhang Bangchang got rid of the left flank fleet, but the left flank flotilla did not turn around and come back to chase after him, so he let the enemy come here.

Therefore, Wang Renzeng had this fire in his heart.

He obviously asked those people on the left to resist these Francophone people as much as possible, but he couldn't have imagined that these guys on the left would be so fucked.

Rubbish!

It's all some rubbish!

They can't even do such a small thing, what else can they do.

Because of his attention just now. It's been on this side all the time, so he doesn't see anything about the situation on the left side.

It is even more impossible to know that the left wing has now been crippled.

Large warships on the left flank, both building and fighting. When they passed by Zhang Bangchang, they were severely damaged by artillery and lost their strength to continue fighting.

Eighty percent of the large warships have been completely destroyed, and the cabins are about to sink when they begin to leak.

The remaining two percent of the ships. Now they are rescuing their brothers on other ships.

So, how could they stop Zhang Bangchang and these people.

Moreover, in the eyes of Wang Renzeng. These people who drove the Franc machine ship were the Franc machine people. Rather than the people of the left-wing flotilla, who already knew who was driving these ships.

"Ready! Turn the rudder to the left, and at the same time the gunners on the left are ready! ”

Wang Renzeng's fighting boat came up, and Zhang Bangchang immediately issued a series of battle orders.

Since the tactics of close-range shelling worked, Zhang Bangchang decided to continue using them.

It's not impossible to eat all the things in one trick.

"Ready! Catapults, ballistas! ”

The bucket boat approached quickly, and the captains of the bucket boats on Wang Renzeng's side also began to shout and give orders loudly.

Nineteen warships lined up in a line, once again in their previous formation.

"Tell the big guys to rush in and go their separate ways. It's impossible to stay in formation in a dogfight, but keep in mind that you have to make sure that you can target two targets in a single shell. ”

The standard-bearer at the top of the pole used the flag language to convey Zhang Bangchang's order.

Shoot!

Sou! Sou! Sou!

Soon, the bucket boat approached.

What has to be said here is that the pirates under Wang Renzeng's command are indeed extremely elite. They were able to strike first and shoot the arrows in their hands first.

It's a pity that they met the wrong enemy.

Jingle Bell!

The arrows were blocked by a transparent and strange shield, and they bounced off one after another and fell into the sea.

What the hell is that, are they playing tricks?

Because the riot shield is made of transparent hard plastic, if you don't look closely, you will think that those arrows are being bounced off the air.

Therefore, the pirates on Wang Renzeng's fighting boat who came up were all shocked and their eyes widened.

And they actually think that the other party used some trick or magic trick to do this.

Muskets! Put!

Bang! Woohoo!

However, the enemy on the opposite side would not give them such a long time to be in a daze, and their enemy counterattacked...... (To be continued......)
