Chapter 196: One Ship Battle, One Port (2)

As the ropes were pulled hard by the gunners, the huge explosions on the Taishan Fu ship came and went, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the hull of the ship, adding a bit of mystery to the originally majestic large Fu ship. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Solid shells flew out of the muzzles, streaked across the sky with powerful kinetic energy, and whistled into the distance. The sailors on the Kitabatake's boat, who heard this sound, let out a thrilling shout, loudly alerting their companions.

Unfortunately, even if the speed of the solid bullet fired by the Napoleon cannon was slow, it could reach a speed of more than 400 meters per second, and the distance of more than 1,000 meters was only three seconds, and it was impossible to give any effective response to the Kitabatake sailors who had already sensed the attack.

"Boom!" A huge column of water rose into the sky not far from the ship, and the wooden boat, which was no more than 800 materials, shook violently, and a seaman who was caught off guard was unsteady on his feet, and plunged from the side of the ship into the icy water.

Another sailor clutching to something next to him saw this, and just when he thought his comrade was too unlucky, the low, heart-wrenching sound appeared again overhead.

Instinctively, the sailor who looked up at the sound saw a ball that was getting bigger and bigger, and then his body was torn to shreds by a solid cannonball with great momentum. The shells continued to fall almost unaffected, smashing a hole in the deck at the feet of the dead sailor and disappearing into the hull.

A few more shells struck and crashed on the wooden ship, mercilessly destroying its hull. One of the shells flew through the hole that had been smashed open by the previous shell, and finally scuttled through the bottom of the ship, and the sea water quickly poured down the crack into the hold, causing the already indestructible ship to slowly sink.

Seeing this scene, the gunners of the Taishan let out bursts of cheers, and they hurriedly continued to reload their ammunition, and it didn't take long for the ready Wufeng guns to roar again.

The 32 guns on the Tarzan Fukuku, at an average rate of one round per minute, continuously dropped shells towards the target area, causing great losses to the Kitabatake naval forces parked in the military port.

Listening to the explosions that sounded in the cabin from time to time, Yang Guang stood in the corner and carefully inspected the Mithril magic array he made, after launching the bombardment with the maximum load, the hull of the Taishan underwent the most severe test after it was built, and the recoil generated by the non-stop bombardment of 32 12-pound Wufeng cannons kept impacting the hull, even if the technology of modern time and space was used, it could not be guaranteed that the wooden Fu Ship would be intact in this long-term impact.

However, when Yang Guang used the spell magic array from the magic plane, the drawbacks of the Taishan fortune ship were perfectly solved, and the planks of the ships that were painted with the magic array were as strong as steel, and they could fully withstand the recoil impact under maximum load.

Yang Guang carefully inspected every magic array in the cabin, and found that they were all operating normally according to his design, and there were no problems, so he was relieved and turned his attention to the battlefield.

After surviving the initial chaos, a warship finally rushed out of the harbor with falling shells and headed for the Tarzan at full speed.

Seeing this scene, Ye Zongman asked some of the Wufeng artillery to intercept it, and the remaining artillery still continued to pour shells into the port, not to completely damage and sink the warships of the Kitabatake family, they still had the strength to counterattack.

Five or six light warships broke through the water and advanced at full speed, this kind of ship called "Ship" in the Ming Dynasty had a long and narrow hull, very maneuverable, and under the rowing of dozens of oars, it was approaching the Taishan at a fairly fast speed.

The artillery crews of the Wufeng cannons that were ordered to intercept bombarded several shots in a row, but they couldn't accurately hit such an extremely fast target, but instead let the opponent get closer and closer to them. Seeing this scene, the gunner leader waved his hand to stop the subordinates who had moved the shells and were about to stuff them into the barrels, and personally went over to lift and carry another shell and load it into the barrels.

Next, the Wufeng cannon no longer fired blindly, but always adjusted the position of the muzzle through the camera, and when the two light warships rushed to a place less than fifty meters away from the Taishan, and the sailors on board were ready to climb and fight, the gunner leader who personally loaded the ammunition pulled the fire rope with a vicious face.

The inspired Goho cannon made another strange sound, like the whimper of some unknown creature swallowing saliva after seeing its prey, and then at least hundreds of small projectiles flew out of the muzzle, forming a cone-shaped terrible metal storm within range, and a large blood mist immediately burst out from the two Kitabatake light warships on the opposite side, enveloping the entire hull, and it was no longer possible to see what was inside.

When the blood mist dissipated, the tragic situation on the enemy ships made the Goho gunners who saw this scene all feel sick, and the dozens of Kitabatake sailors who were originally preparing to jump into the gang were all lying on the deck, their bodies were covered with bloody wounds, and the deck behind them was also full of pitted gaps and holes, all of which were caused by the shotgun fired just now.

These shotguns contain a large number of small projectiles, which do not do much damage to buildings and large targets, but have some terrifying lethal effects on flesh and blood that are close to the artillery.

When a large number of small projectiles penetrate through the flesh and blood unscrupulously, such injuries are not guaranteed to be healed even in modern time and space. These sailors who thought they could advocate the Tarzan to launch a counterattack, but they didn't expect to embark on a road of no return that was even more terrifying, and their only fate was to lie there and watch themselves die.

Having solved the approaching threat, the Wufeng gunners reloaded their solid shells and joined in the bombardment of the ships in the military port. The Kitabatake's clippers, which had lost their sailors, slowly floated on the water, and the constant cries and moans from the boats would become a nightmare for all enemies.

The 45-minute bombardment had largely shattered the Kitabatake's revolt, and many of the surviving sailors had abandoned their ships and jumped into the sea heading towards the pier.

After discovering that the enemy had basically lost the power to counterattack, Ye Zongman did not hesitate to give a new order, and the Wufeng cannon fired on the Taishan began to be loaded with new ammunition. (To be continued.) )
